Bab 493: Chapter 493 Giving Too Much
...
the next day.
The Lily of the Valley youth tournament preliminaries have officially begun.
However, because Natsu and the others didn't need to participate in the qualifiers, except for the occasional few people who went to the scene to see and support, most of the time stayed at the villa and made the final preparations.
During the period, Roxanne did a good job of gathering intelligence, bringing back some information and player material that performed well.
At the same time, she also said something more influential.
It was a tournament that should belong to the four main regions of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh this time, but the Unova Region and Kalos Region also sent people to participate.
It is said that it has been approved by the General Alliance to promote friendly exchanges between regions.
The only effect of this is that the chances of Natsu getting a better place are smaller.
Obviously Unova and Kalos wouldn't send someone who didn't qualify.
And this made him feel the pressure again.
Qualification lasted three full days.
As the match progressed smoothly, the big people represented by their respective Alliances also came one after another.
For example, the Elite Four Agatha of the Kanto Alliance, the Elite Four Drake of the Hoenn Alliance, the Elite Four Bertha of the Sinnoh Alliance, the Elite Four Alder of the Unova Alliance, the Elite Four Drasna of the Kalos Alliance.
By the way, the hometown of Drasna, the Dragon-Type Elite of the Kalos Alliance was the Celestic Towm where Shirona lived.
Even Drasna and Shirona were related by blood.
The arrival of each Region Elite Four was of course quite a stir, even Agatha, who usually looked a little infiltrated, had many supporters.
Not to mention someone as approachable and polite as Alder.
Alder is currently not the Champion of the Unova Alliance.
According to the news, it was because one of his Pokémon died a while ago, which makes Alder look a little decadent and not very interested in Alliance affairs.
And as long as you can enter the knock-out competition, there will be quite a few Elites watching the game, and it's also an interesting thing to be able to enter their field of vision.
Natsu was the only one feeling a little nervous after hearing that Agatha had arrived.
Until the night.
Lance came to Natsu's room, and Natsu rolled his eyes when he saw her meaningful smile.
"Natsu, Agatha Elite would like to meet you," Lance said.
Natsu took a deep breath.
"I see."
What should come always comes, and there is no way to avoid it.
Even though Natsu explained it when he met Agatha for the second time, however, he used Agatha's name to "pocket" a lot of things, and it was still a bit petty back then. Excited, now that he thought about it, he shouldn't regret it.
Together with Lance, Natsu comes to a more secluded villa.
At night, just looking from the outside revealed a gloomy feeling.
"You come in, I won't come in." said Lance.
"I am alone?"
The answer was the back of Lance's head which was gradually receding.
"Impossible," he whispered softly.
But Natsu still mustered up his courage and pushed the door open. With a "creak" sound from the wooden door, he walked into the dark villa.
"Here." Natsu was surprised when a low hoarse voice sounded from the side.
Natsu looked closely, only to see an old silhouette sitting on the sofa with a cane under the dim moonlight shining through the window.
"Hello, Agatha Elite. long time no see." Natsu forced a smile which he thought was fine.
"hehe-"
Agatha chuckled.
Natsu's hair stood on end.
What are you laughing at?
"what t-"
Crisp sound.
The lights in the room were all on, and Agatha who was sitting beside the sofa appeared clearly before Natsu's eyes.
"Kuo Ji—" At the entrance, Gengar, who was standing beside the switch, looked at the lights in the room and nodded in satisfaction.
Gastly emerged from the walls one by one, sinking into Gengar's shadow.
"Back?" asked Agatha.
"jie jie!" Gengar turned towards her.
"Sit down, we already know each other, don't be nervous, it's just that this house hasn't been inhabited for too long, and there's a problem with the wiring." Agatha explained in a rare way.
Very friendly?
Natsu nodded and sat on the sofa opposite Agatha.
Half ass.
This villa was supposed to belong to Agatha, but it was estimated that she very rarely came here several times over the past few years, and it was normal to have problems.
Katz Katz -
The two were silent, only Agatha was sitting there, eating slowly, and Natsu had only one feeling, as if being stabbed by a needle.
To be honest, Natsu might not have held back much in the face of the other Elites, but this Agatha made him absolutely not daring to be too impudent.
The other Elites hold Elite status themselves, so they won't embarrass Natsu, just temperamental Agatha, it's really hard to say.
Natsu saw no contradiction between Professor Oak and Agatha when she was young. At this age, will Agatha teach anyone who looks like Professor Oak a lesson?
Why?
The reason is like Professor Oak.
In addition, Pokémon Ghost Type is the most difficult to deal with, appearing and disappearing unexpectedly. There are too many ways to deal with someone.
So with Agatha, Natsu was actually a little worried.
After a long time, Agatha looked at Natsu again as she ate the last biscuit in her hand.
"Team Magma, are you having fun?"
The sudden sentence almost made Natsu uneasy.
"Bring him."
Agatha interrupted before she could finish, "I didn't tell the kid, I guessed it myself."
".".
"I know him quite well. Even though he had good abilities, he was too honest. For things like sneaking into Team Magma, he would at most just sneak in and become a regular member. to the level of decision-making." Agatha said quietly.
The implication is to guess Natsu's role in the information provided by Lance.
This is a very relevant evaluation.
No matter how you looked at it, Lance was a righteous person, and it would not work for him to disguise himself.
Disguise must be flexible, smart and even cunning people can do it, like the head
Natsu, nodded, slowly froze, turned his head with difficulty, watching Agatha smiling, suddenly had a very bad feeling in his heart.
Let him disguise?
Seeing the change in Natsu's expression, the smile on Agatha's face became more "brighter", "It seems you guessed it a bit."
"I refuse." Natsu said this. His answer was firm and firm.
"Oh? Think about that first?" Agatha asked meaningfully, smiling unchanged.
"I didn't think about it." Natsu braced himself without changing his attitude.
"What if it involves Tom Ritchie?"
"En?!" Natsume's eyes narrowed.
Agatha is like a dangerous old fox who has taken Natsu's life.
Long silence.
Natsu's slightly hoarse voice sounded again, "I still refuse."
"Oh?"
This time, Agatha was slightly surprised and glanced at him. With a gloomy face, Natsu still has a firm attitude.
Being able to be controlled by the hatred in his heart shows that Natsu has strong self-control and a comprehensive understanding of himself.
Slowly lift your finger.
"I will accept you as a disciple."
Elite Four disciples are also Elite Four veteran disciples. This title alone was enough for many to steal it. head.
But Natsu still hooked his head.
Disciple Agatha, although his title is very good, but in the Sinnoh Region where she wants to live, it may not be very useful.
"Gym Leader, Sinnoh Region." Agatha raised a second finger.
Natsu was a little surprised.
Can the Elite Four provide a Gym Leader identity?
And also the Kanto Region Elite Four promised Sinnoh Region Gym Leader.
Why do you feel so unreliable?
"Plus fifty million Alliance Coins Gym start-up capital."
Third finger.
"."
Actually, when it comes to the identity of the Gym Leader, Natsu has started to waver.
"Pokemon worth at least 100 million Alliance Coins."
Fourth finger.
"Hu Hu-"
Watch your breath.
"The opportunity to enter the Silver Secret Realm."
Silver Secret Realm, the biggest Secret Realm in Silver Mountain, is completely controlled by the Alliance headquarters, with only a few parts Only qualified to open, it is one of the secrets of the Alliance.
"Where?" Natsu's eyes were bloodshot, and his hoarse voice sounded again.
Impossible.
Agatha gave too much.
Agatha really gave too much.
Natsu really wanted to refuse, but apparently he knew that he couldn't refuse, either physically or consciously.
This kind of treatment.
It would be rude to say that in the Alliance's plan to develop a direct descendant of a Trainer, it had been considered a restricted level.
Meaning, an old Elite like Agatha could make a promise. For the younger ones, Natsu couldn't believe it.
Hearing this, Agatha smiled, "You handled it, Hunter's Guild."
"Hunters' Guild?" Natsu was a little surprised.
He thought he was going to Team Rocket, so he refused, Team Rocket is not a good place to be treated.
But the Hunter's Guild.
Didn't Natsu deal with Joanna from the Hunter's Guild even though Agatha didn't say so?
Feeling
It's like someone else taking the initiative to bump into the muzzle of their own gun and deliver something to their doorstep.
If he knew it was the Hunter's Guild, he wouldn't be bothered.
So many benefits for nothing.
Dear.
"Tom Ritchie has gone to the Hunter's Guild, and now there is a lot of chaos in the Hunter's Guild, which is a good opportunity," Agatha briefly explained.
Natsu was silent.
After a long time, he asked the question he was most worried about, "Who are the people on this mission?"
The Alliance isn't very safe right now, the last trial takes place. The incident makes Natsu aware of the problems within the Alliance.
By the way, Agatha also knew what Natsu was worried about. She knew better than Natsu what was going on within the Alliance, so she suppressed a smile, "Don't worry, only you and I know, there is no third party other than this."
Forgot to mention, Agatha was now in charge of the entire Kanto Alliance Investigator Division, with immense power.
This made Natsu a little relieved.
"What do you need me to do?" asked Natsu again.
"The specific tasks haven't been completely determined, but the first thing you should do is take one of the twenty-six seats in the Hunter's Guild."
"Twenty-six seats? Agatha Elite, don't you rate me too highly?" Natsu said helplessly.
He thought too, but his strength wouldn't allow it.
"Five months should be enough with your power-up speed? If it takes any longer, the chaos within the Hunter's Guild will truly end."
Five Months, if it is only twenty ordinary seats, it is not that there is no chance.
"Then I have a request."
"Oh? Talk about it." Agatha's eyebrows rose.
"Using the identity I provided as a basis."
Natsu also has the identity of "Yanxia", which he created earlier, and cannot bear to be investigated. , but since Agatha proposed the task, it should be able to help him complete this identity well.
This would not affect his identity as a Gym Leader on the surface nor his identity as a member of the Hunter's Guild behind the scenes, one move, two advantages.
Agatha gave him a meaningful look, and said nodding, "Yes."
"May I ask, why the Hunter's Guild?" Natsu asked doubtfully.
Agatha Frillish glanced at him, "Where else do you think it is? Rocket Team? Hah-"
Natsu was understandably looking down at his final sneer.
But looking down, he was really scared of going to Team Rocket.
"Hunter's Guild has become increasingly crowded these years, capturing Pokémon and selling them to a series of underground organizations such as Team Rocket, Team Magma, Team Aqua, Team Galactic, etc. Do you think we Alliance can't see it? Give me a hand that shouldn't be outstretched."
Agatha didn't finish her last words, and seemed to mean something.
Natsu can only say that if the Hunter's Guild is safe and sound, it has touched the Alliance's big cake, which makes Alliance unable to sit still.
And there's Tom Ritchie's presence.
She managed to make the Alliance see her ambition.
As the reverse of the original Elite Four, she knew enough about the Alliance that if she was in charge of the entire Hunters Guild, wouldn't it take off?
Either perish in the plague, or resurrect in the plague, to the point that the Alliance cannot contain it completely.
"Last question, why did you choose me?"
"Because only you are 'bad' enough."
Is this a compliment or a compliment?
Lance is too honest, Steven believe it or not he threw ten fifty million Alliance coins back? Not to mention Shirona and Lorelei.
As for those veterans and famous ones, they were all too easy to spot. Only young Trainers like the initially unknown Natsu are suitable.
To be honest, Natsu's resistance to entering the Hunter's Guild wasn't very high.
Not only because Tom Ritchie also joined, but also because the Hunter's Guild was too lax, and the member restrictions weren't really that high.
This also means that the risk after joining is not so high.
In fact, Natsu could be considered half-joined now.
"What ceremony do you want for the apprentice?"
Now that the problem is solved, Natsu starts to care about his salary and maintenance.
Interning with Agatha might make his feel uncomfortable, but don't think of Agatha as an Elite.
"Not." Agatha waved casually.
"Oh."
The two fell silent again, showing no sense of master and disciple.
"That Agatha Elite" Natsu broke the silence again.
"en?"
"Eh, old, Master? Then Master, as the Elite Four of the Kanto Region, how did you get the Gym Leader of the Sinnoh Alliance?"
Bamm-
Agatha's crutches knocked on the ground and slowly stood up.
A rare show of domineering arrogance.
"My disciple, what is the reason for becoming a Gym Leader?"
Natsu.
He's starting to like the feeling of being protected.
