Chapter 72 The Vibrant Estuary

The buckle locks and makes a crisp sound.

Rock fastened the straps of his backpack and raised his head to glance at the sky.

The morning sun is rising slowly, and the blue sky is cloudless.

Determining that it was a sunny day, Rock put on a brown cowboy hat and set off from the camp holding the ash stick he found yesterday.

Today we were going to explore the bay in the south of the territory, so Rock got up before dawn.

He first went to the tree orchard and apiary to check and made sure that the tree seedlings and iron-shelled saplings were all normal.

Then they hurriedly finished breakfast with Abogui and the others, and couldn't wait to put on their backpacks.

Rock prepared to march along the river bank so that he would not have to stop to get his bearings.

It is late spring and early summer, when the river has abundant water and both sides are full of life.

Some moisture-loving trees grow near the water, the shore is covered with lush wild flowers, and a few butterflies and ladybugs are dancing gracefully.

Bah!

Bayleaf suddenly stood on the bank of the river and shouted.

Rock looked in the direction it was facing. On the other side of the river stood the Swamp King family they had seen before.

Two Swamp Kings were accompanied by several short Ubos.

Ubo has blue skin, a short body with a large oval head, and lavender antenna-like horns on both sides of the head.

It has no arms, only two small feet and a thin but powerful tail.

At this time, these little blackbirds on the other side were jumping around with the bay leaves in response to each other.

As if feeling Rock's gaze, a Swamp King waved its short hand with three round fingers at him.

Rock waved in response, and then continued on his way with the three elves.

The river widens further downstream, and the flow becomes gentler.

The clear and translucent river surface reflected the sky like a mirror. Delubi curiously approached the river, and the river water clearly reflected its figure.

Mirror empty river.

These three words suddenly appeared in Rock's mind, and he felt that this name was very suitable for this river.

Anyway, this river is mine now, so it's called Jingkong River!

Rock loudly announced the name of the river in the wilderness.

Unexpectedly, it disturbed a few mosquito-repellent tadpoles that came ashore to rest, and they jumped into the river again with a plop-plop.

Following the Jingkong River all the way south, a series of hills gradually appeared in Rock's field of vision.

The river turned a corner here and disappeared into the hills.

There were some tamarisks and pittosporum growing on the hill, and Roque asked Bayleaf to use his chop to clear the way and climb up.

The sound of the waves rang in his ears. Rock climbed to the top of the hill and his eyes suddenly opened up.

The endless sea appeared in front of him, Rock took off his cowboy hat, and the sea breeze blew his hair.

The blue sky and the sea intersect, as if connected together.

Rock withdrew his gaze and looked down at the coast on the hilly side.

As he expected, the beach here was covered with gravel just like the beach in Sunshine Town.

A large number of rugged rocks emerge from the sea.

Not far away is a trumpet-shaped inlet from which the Jingkong River flows continuously into the sea.

Although there is also a rocky beach around the estuary, Rock seems to be dotted with a lot of Pokémon from a distance.

So he climbed over the hills and walked towards the mouth of the sea.

When Rock approached the entrance of Jingkong River, he found that it was very wide, nearly twenty meters wide.

A large school of iron gunfish swims in the estuary, and a large number of light gray short horns are exposed on the water.

Several small flying fish jumped out from the school of iron cannon fish, their oblate bodies rotated and stretched in mid-air like dancing, and then fell into the sea.

The splashing waves reflect the sunlight and form rainbows.

Suddenly, several black shadows shot out quickly from under the water, rushing towards the school of iron cannon fish like torpedoes.

Rock stared closely at the water and found several barracudas scurrying to prey on these iron gunfish.

However, the barracuda can only swim in a straight line, so only some unlucky barracudas hit the opponent's sharp and hard jaws and became food.

After a brief wave, the sea calmed down again.

Both sides of the river mouth are continuous stone beaches and rocks. The side near the sea has steeper hills and large exposed rocks.

Many electric petrels build nests on the rock walls. They stand on the nests and look down at the fish below.

Seeing that several spiny barracudas became sluggish after eating, a whole group of electric petrels immediately flew down to attack.

Dense electric lights lit up on the sea surface, and the barracuda flipped up its belly due to the electricity.

Several electric petrels flew back to their nest while grabbing the paralyzed spiny pike.

Looking at these wild elves on the coast, Rock licked the corner of his mouth.

Barracuda is a delicious sea fish Pokémon, and the bird's nest of Electric Petrel is a rumored delicacy.

But Rock discovered an even better treat.

He looked eastward along the rocky beach under the rock, where several Slowpoke were leisurely basking in the sun.

The pink bodies of Slowpoke are very conspicuous, and Rock just discovered them on the hill.

These Slowpoke creatures are fat, have short limbs, and have a long tail with a very light pink color at the end, almost white.

This tail is a valuable ingredient that is famous throughout the Pokémon world.

Rock was going to chop a few of them and try them for lunch.

Slowpoke has slow senses and a laid-back personality. Its tail feels almost no pain, and even if it breaks, it will grow back quickly.

Yaduo?

Seeing Rock approaching, these Slowpoke tilted their heads, and then moved their bodies aside in a friendly manner to make way for a flat rock for him.

In their eyes, lying on a flat stone and basking in the sun is the most comfortable enjoyment.

This made Rock feel a little embarrassed to take action.

He wasn't a person with a lot of heart, but cutting off the tails of laid-back and friendly Slowpoke with a knife while they were alive was beyond Rock's bottom line.

Oh, forget it, let's come and take a look next time. Maybe you'll be lucky enough to pick up the tail that fell off naturally.

Rock sighed and put the knife back into its sheath, pinched the Slowpoke's curled ears, and turned around to leave.

He didn't feel too disappointed. He saw many elves he had never seen before and witnessed the wonderful hunting process between different Pokémon. This was enough to make him feel happy.

There are several islands and reefs lined with strange rocks on the sea not far away. This is the season for the large-billed gulls and long-winged gulls from the south to fly north.

They spread their white wings with blue patterns and soared freely in the sky. From time to time they crossed the water and picked up fluorescent fish that jumped out of the sea.

Rock found a rock to sit down and rest. Delubi lay next to him and looked curiously at the sea in the distance.

Bayleaf found a clam with its shell closed. It hit the shell of the clam with the sickle on its head, trying to open the shell of the clam.

Arbor stared at the electric petrel on the rock wall and drooled, just like its gluttonous trainer.

Look! It's the Roaring Whale King!

Rock suddenly pointed to the sea in the distance and said in surprise.
