Pokémon: Ash's Rebirth World Line Concludes

The Pokémon P1 Cup Fighting Competition officially kicked off on a sunny morning.

In the crowded venue, Xiaozhi and his friends, along with Sister Azur, Xiaogang, and Li, came to the outskirts of the venue together.

As the most authoritative large-scale competition in the fighting world, the P1 Cup's gold belt is not only a prop that allows Hao Li to evolve, but also a symbol of a fighter's progress towards becoming a master.

The only two of the four fighting kings today, Silva of Kanto and Renbu of Unova, were once gold belt winners.

Therefore, the participants are a mixed crowd, including professional fighters and trainers who are confident in themselves.

In short, everyone has a dream: to become the leader in the fighting world.

Among them, the fighting gyms in various places are the main ones. You know, winning this honor is equivalent to being an officially certified high-level fighter.

For the fighting gym, it means a lot.

Therefore, the young generation of experts such as Fujishu from Hoenn and Ayado from Galar also gathered here.

"Ah Li, your goal is the same, right? To make your own dojo famous?" Xiaozhi, wearing sportswear and a white towel around his neck, looked at the girl next to him.

A simple sports outfit, fists wrapped in bandages, and sneakers that he only wears when traveling.

Ah Li usually doesn't wear shoes during training, because he is afraid of wear and tear...

"Senior Xiaozhi, I don't have such big ambitions." Ah Li waved his hand with a slightly red face: "It's just that the prize money for the top three is very generous. I think if I win the game, I can take Lucario and the others to buy some new equipment, and I can also have a few good meals..."

"Why does she call Xiaozhi senior?" Seiko asked Souji beside her in confusion.

Souji explained with a smile that because of the special nature of Satoshi's Lucario, both Souji's Lucario and Li's Lucario treated Satoshi like an ancestor when they saw him, and showed them extreme respect.

So Ah Li automatically brought it in, and Xiaozhi should be a respected wave guide messenger.

Xiaozhi accepted the title of senior calmly.

After all, in some ways, I can indeed be the senior of these young people~

Sister Blue came to Xiaozhi with a booklet in her hand and said, "Xiaozhi, don't say that I don't treat you well. I'll sell this book of contestants' information to others for 998, but I'll give it to you for 98. How about that?"

Xiaozhi's mouth twitched when he heard this: "If I'm not mistaken, there are only a few of us on here, sister..."

"Oops... I got the wrong one. I'm such a careless little cutie~" Sister Blue stuck out her tongue and acted cute.

"Xiaozhi, Miss Azure has said so. As a man, of course I should forgive her!" Xiaogang said righteously with his hands on his hips.

"My trigeminal nerve hurts so much..." Looking at the two people, Xiaozhi's forehead was throbbing with veins: "Forget it, sister, I don't want the information. Can you give me two packs of sports drink powder..."

After receiving the hundred-dollar bill from Xiaozhi, Blue immediately smiled widely: "Thank you for your patronage... Kiss~"

Just after blowing a kiss, Azure saw Brock's wallet ready to move: "Well, I think Steelix will also like this flavor of drink."

"Oh my~" Sister Blue covered her mouth and chuckled: "So how much does Xiao Gang-san plan to spend?"

Xiao Gang raised a finger righteously: "I'm ready to spend ten chumi~"

Souji was amazed: "Master Xiaogang works two jobs every day just for this?"

Xiaozhi patted Souji on the shoulder and said, "Long live understanding. Save when you can and spend when you can..."

After collecting the money, Bilan went to find his own stall.

Xiaozhi and his friends have already completed the registration and are now waiting for the opening ceremony to begin. After reading the group information, they can go back to rest and wait for the competition to begin.

Various mobile stalls have been set up around the stadium.

Not counting the contestants in the venue, the number of spectators who came to watch the game and consume money reached an astonishing number.

Seeing that the opening ceremony would take some time, Xiaozhi suggested that everyone take a walk around the area.

Seiko, who had long been unable to contain her desire to go shopping, cheered and ran away with Souji.

After all, you still need a bag-carrying boy to buy things...

The remaining Xiaozhi and the other two stared at each other.

"How about we go to the park over there and sit for a while. There seems to be a roller skating rink there for some entertainment." Xiaogang suggested.

"Hmm~" Ali hesitated for a moment.

Xiaozhi patted the little girl on the back and said, "Let's go have some ice cream. It's my treat."

Ah Li's eyes lit up: "Thank you, senior!"

The three of them walked out of the venue and came to the ice cream stand next to the park.

"Give us three Moo Moo Fresh Ice Cream, please." Xiaozhi said.

“Welcome~Ka! Little brats…” The three familiar guys selling ice cream were none other than the Rocket Three Idiots.

"What's wrong?" Xiaogang asked doubtfully. The strong arms made Sansha tremble all over.

"Meow, haha...it's nothing, sir, this is your ice cream." Meow Meow wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and handed the ice cream to Xiaozhi.

Xiaozhi looked at the three of them with amusement, took the ice cream, and turned away with Xiaogang.

He hasn't bothered me recently, probably because he's spending more than he earns again.

Workers, come on!

After sitting down at the roller skating rink, Xiaozhi and the other two ate ice cream and chatted.

"This time, Xiaozhi, the two Pokémon you signed up for are both in the lightweight group, right?" Xiaogang asked with a smile.

“Well, actually, most Fighting-type Pokémon can only reach the Lightweight category.

Only Snorlax, Ultraman, Nidoking and the like can enter the heavyweight category." Xiaozhi shrugged.

"Come to think of it, Red once won the heavyweight championship with the help of Snorlax." Xiaogang recalled with a smile.

"He won the fighting tournament with a normal Pokémon. He is indeed a fighter." Xiaozhi smiled strangely. Who is not a master of reverse attributes?

"I heard that as long as we make it into the top 32, we'll receive subsidies. I must work hard." Ah Li clenched his fists to cheer himself up.

"The opening ceremony will begin in fifteen minutes. Contestants, please enter the venue early through the contestant channel." At this time, the announcement of the competition organizing committee sounded on the radio.

Xiaozhi patted his pants and stood up: "Let's go, we should go to the gathering."

Xiaogang and the other man nodded and prepared to leave together.

At this moment, the girl screamed: "The one in front, get out of the way!"

"Huh?" Xiaozhi turned around and saw a Lucario running towards him. Behind it, a girl with a yellow ponytail, wearing roller skates, was chasing after it with another Lucario.

"Stop!" Xiaozhi raised his right hand, and his voice suddenly rang out along with the power of the wave.

Squeak! The Lucario that was charging suddenly braked on the spot, then knelt on one knee in front of Xiaozhi and stopped...

"Luca~" Lucario looked at Xiaozhi with sparkling eyes.

"Oh~" The kind-looking old man following behind the girl smiled in surprise, then followed silently.

"Are you okay?" The girl came to Xiaozhi on roller skates and asked apologetically.

Xiaozhi shook his head to show that he was fine: "You are also a contestant in the fighting competition, right?"

"Hey, I'm Korni! A fighter from the Kalos region!" The girl introduced herself with full of energy.

Xiaozhi looked enlightened: "Well, nice to meet you, Kornie, I'm Xiaozhi from Pallet Town."

"I'm sorry, this is Lucario's first time traveling far away, so he's bound to be a little excited," Korni explained.

"It's okay, I think it's quite obedient." Xiaozhi reached out and patted Lucario's shoulder.

Looking at the obedient Lucario, Korney showed an expression of disbelief: "Hey~ It seems to like you very much."

"Maybe it's because I smell like Lucario. Some of my friends are Lucario trainers." Xiaozhi explained with a smile.

"Korni, don't you still need to register?" the old man behind her reminded with a smile.

Korni suddenly woke up: "Oh, right! I haven't checked in yet. Let's talk later. Lucario, let's go!"

With the two Lucarios, the girl once again rushed away on her roller skates.

The old man nodded kindly to Xiaozhi and the others: "Everyone, we'll see you later."

Watching the old man tiptoeing and following Korni's figure nonchalantly, Xiao Gang couldn't help but sigh: "This old man is a martial artist~"

Ah Li looked at Korni's back with a complicated look: What kind of family is this? Lucario takes care of two at a time...

The opening ceremony music had already started playing in the gymnasium. Xiaozhi and the other two looked at each other and trotted into the venue.

Next up is the official competition...

To be continued...
