“I have heard that you were of great help in this operation to capture the poaching gang, and on behalf of the Alliance, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you.”
Looking at the young, black-haired man before him, Du immediately felt a sense of appreciation for his talent and continued, "Bai Ye, would you be interested in learning about the work at the Alliance headquarters?"
"Alliance Headquarters?"
Bai Ye pondered for a moment, feeling a sense of unease. He seemed to have heard of this thing somewhere before.
Seeing this, Officer Jenny chimed in to explain.
"The League Headquarters is the organization that brings together powerful trainers from all regions. This includes League Investigators, Gym Inspectors, and Logistics Commanders."
“That’s right.” Du nodded. “I am the Alliance’s First Investigator, which is under the Alliance Headquarters. My usual tasks are to go to various regions to investigate special phenomena, assist local Officer Jenny in capturing vicious criminals, and track down and combat various evil organizations.”
With the idea of recruiting Bai Ye into the group in mind, he then began to introduce the basic information of other positions.
"Dojo inspectors typically monitor the condition of dojos in the region in real time and visit the dojos every two years to assess the dojo owners' abilities and ensure that each dojo is operating well."
"As for the logistics commanders, their work is more varied. They are generally responsible for taking over the League's major events, such as the Lily of the Valley Conference held every year in the Sinnoh region."
"So?" Looking at Bai Ye, who was deep in thought, Du asked with a hint of anticipation, "Are you interested in joining us?"
"With my abilities and connections, I can guarantee that you can become an Alliance Investigator without passing any relevant assessments. Of course, if you are interested in the other two jobs, that's fine too."
However, neither Lingdu nor Officer Jenny expected that Baiye, after pondering for a long time, would simply shake his head slightly.
"Never mind, I inherited the farm from my grandfather, I really don't have the time."
Chapter 99 The Lady in the Bodycon Skirt (3200 words)
If it had been before, when the champion of the capital city invited him to be an investigator, he would have readily agreed.
But the farm is still in its early stages, and the Hiwa Industrial Company, which was entrusted to Olivier for management, has only just been established.
The first batch of Rihe brand Moo Moo milk is currently being produced and launched into the market at an accelerated pace. Whether it will sell well is still unknown. There's no way they would just abandon their business and run away.
Well, of course, the most important point is—
Instead of traveling to various places to fight evil organizations, it's much better to have a nice silver party on the farm. It's enjoyable and you can gain more power by acquiring more skills. This is much better than the dangerous job of an investigator.
""
Meanwhile, Watari, who had invited him, was decisively rejected and was completely bewildered by Byakuya's sudden refusal.
There's no reason for that. Isn't the offer from Qiba Erba Yueyi generous enough?
This is a League Investigator position that countless trainers would kill to become, and you rejected it without even thinking it over?!
After a long while, the champion from the capital city cast a resentful glance over, and finally seemed to have come to his senses.
Powerful trainers often have their own unique personalities, and it's understandable that they don't want to be bound by the League. The farmer in front of us is probably the same.
However, since he helped them capture a large poaching gang and resolved the crisis of the wild Pokémon riot in Hiyori Forest, Du felt that he should be rewarded both morally and logically.
With that thought in mind, he handed the communicator's contact number to Bai Ye in front of him.
"This is my contact information. If you have any further requests, I will do my best to help you on behalf of the alliance, as long as it is within my capabilities."
Bai Ye paused for a moment, then realized what was happening.
This is a champion's promise.
Although his Pokémon strength is already strong enough that he doesn't need anyone to come to his rescue most of the time, he might really need the help of this Johto Champion in other aspects.
For example, in the future, in addition to being sold in the Sinnoh region, the Nichiyori brand MooMoo milk will inevitably be extended to other regions, and Lance, who has a huge influence in the Kanto and Johto regions, is undoubtedly an excellent candidate to help him expand the market.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Watari."
After exchanging contact information, Wataru looked up at the petite figure that was perched on Shiro's hair and asked, "By the way, is this the Celebi that was targeted by the poaching gang?"
"Ow~"
Beside them, the good-natured Dragonite also cast a curious glance.
Upon hearing Wataru's question, Byakuya reached out and lifted Celebi off his head, looking rather helpless.
Well, so the little guy went upstairs as soon as he woke up. No wonder his head suddenly felt much heavier.
Besides being hailed as the god of the forest and capable of making vegetation flourish, Celebi is also classified as a time-traveling Pokémon, said to possess the power to travel through time, so it's not surprising that it would be targeted by poaching gangs.
“So cute—”
Nearby, Officer Jenny, who had noticed Celebi, was holding her face in her hands, and her girlish heart was instantly stirred.
For this usually meticulous and dashing policewoman, a Pokémon as small as Celebi would undoubtedly be extremely dangerous.
Freeing herself from Bai Ye's grasp, Celebi lightly landed on her shoulder, playfully kicking her soft, white legs.
"They're really energetic," Lance chuckled softly from the side. He suddenly remembered that when he first met Dragonite, which was still in its Dratini stage, the scene was just as warm and natural.
"Shh~"
With Gardevoir's psychic translation abilities, Bai Ye quickly learned of her thoughts.
"You want to become our partner, right, Celebi?"
"Bi~"
Upon hearing the farmer's question, the little guy nodded naturally.
For Celebi, who is kind by nature, his heroic act of rescuing her from the poaching gang and then single-handedly preventing further irreparable damage to the forest has undoubtedly won her immense favor.
A moment later, seeing the Poké Ball already handed to her, she couldn't wait to press it.
Name: Celebi
[Type: Psychic + Grass]
[Gender: Female]
[Level: lv45]
【Characteristic: Natural Recovery (Status ailments will be cured upon rejoining the party)】
[Skills: Healing Bell, Magic Leaf, Baton Pass, Primal Power, Life Drop, Sun Beam, Electromagnetic Wave, Ultimate Absorption, Psychic Power, Precognition, Pollen Blast]
[Inherited skills: None]
[Equipped Affixes: None]
Because there were outsiders present, the re-released Celebi did not transform into a female version, but continued to maintain its original Pokémon form, flying around the trainer.
"Bi~"
With a soft murmur from the little creature, a gentle, pale green light began to spread throughout the entire forest like ripples on water.
"Poga Poga~" "The forest seems to be changing~"
Looking around, both Hikaru and Pogaman exclaimed in surprise.
After resting and recovering from his injuries and regaining his strength, the forest god began to use his power to restore the forest to its original lush and verdant state.
[Healing Ringtone: Allows allies to hear a soothing ringtone, thereby healing all abnormal statuses on all allies.]
[Pollen Balls: These balls explode when used against enemies, but heal allies when used on them.]
Trees that had been scorched to ashes by the fire miraculously rose from the ground, their emerald green leaves swaying gently in the wind, making a pleasant rustling sound. The bushes destroyed by the blizzard were restored and dotted the forest paths.
As for the wild Pokémon that were hit by the Blizzard and lost their ability to battle, they gradually recovered under the healing of Pollen Puff.
The bees, still holding their stingers, flew in swarms towards the dim shade of the trees.
Nidoking and Nidoqueen, a young couple, walked together, their footsteps echoing as they disappeared into the forest.
Meanwhile, the falcons and bigbills that had gathered together flapped their wings and returned to the branches of the giant cedar trees where they perched, accompanied by their piercing cries.
Although these Pokémon are naturally grumpy, they are not unreasonable. After being thoroughly beaten by Baiye and seeing that the forest they depend on for survival has returned to its former state, they naturally chose to go home.
"Everyone's alright, that's so great!"
Seeing this, even the aloof and elegant Miss Officer Jenny couldn't help but smile.
"Bi~"
Celebi floated in the air, looking with satisfaction at the revitalized Hiyori Forest before him.
However, not long after, the cute little one was horrified to discover that she had used too much of her power and seemed to have accidentally opened a time tunnel as well.
At that moment, a light screen that only she could see faintly appeared in a corner of the forest.
If it's not handled properly, people from other timelines might come in from one side of the tunnel.
This is troublesome!!!
Celebi, realizing this, groaned inwardly and began to take steps to remedy the situation.
At that moment, the chirping of birds rose and fell in the sky.
Officer Jenny looked up and saw dozens of Staraptors flapping their wings, riding on a large group of trainers wearing uniforms with the Sinnoh League logo.
These are the personnel sent by the alliance to handle the final tasks.
"Alright, then we'll take the prisoners back first. Have a safe journey, everyone." After talking with the person in charge, Du had them escort the tightly bound hunters onto the Mk Eagle mount.
"Bai Ye, if you're having trouble at the farm, you're welcome to visit the Alliance. The Alliance's doors are always open for you."
After saying that, the Dragon Messenger suddenly slapped his forehead, as if he had remembered something, "Let's fight Dragonite next time we meet. It hasn't found a worthy opponent in a long time."
"Ow~"
Dragonite let out a soft cry, revealing an expectant look in its eyes.
"No problem." Bai Ye looked at Lance and Dragonite, who were strong but had no airs at all, and replied with a smile.
After watching them leave, Xiao Guang, who was standing beside him, also decided to embark on his journey.
"Brother Baiye, I'll come to the farm to find you after the Fate Tournament!"
Reluctantly, she hugged Bai Ye, and after giving her a light kiss, the blue-haired girl, her heart fluttering, waved goodbye with a shy expression.
Just like how battle trainers challenge gyms and collect all eight gym badges to participate in regional tournaments, Dawn, as a coordinator trainer, also needs to travel to various towns to participate in Contests and collect a sufficient number of Ribbon Badges.
"Boga Boga~"
"It's okay, we'll come again in a few days~"
Hikaru touched Piplup's eyes, which were filled with tears from the separation, then turned to look at the black-haired youth still watching from behind, and made a silent decision.
To become a top-tier Coordinator, you must strive to keep up with Byakuya's pace!
“Have a nice trip~”
"Mini~"
Hearing Itachi's soft sigh, the farmer, who had just seen Hikari and Officer Jenny off, smiled and echoed his sentiment.
Yes, it ended perfectly!
Successfully protected the farm and completed the system's assigned task, gained favor with Xiaoguang and Officer Jenny, made the Dragon Messenger owe a favor, and also brought back a forest god, Celebi.
Well, in a few days, Officer Jenny will also come to the farm and give him the ten million bounty for helping to capture Hunter J. This trip to the Hiyori Forest can be said to have been very fruitful.
Of course, before leaving, the aloof green-haired lady leaned close to her ear and asked Bai Ye, blushing, if he had time to take her drifting again.
The farmer, who was always good at reading people, readily agreed.
Was she really riding a motorcycle? More likely, this female police officer wanted to be mistaken for a large vehicle and get her teeth ripped off—
"Let's go, it's time to head back to the farm."
After summarizing his gains, Baiye nodded in satisfaction and then called to the Pokémon behind him.
After all this commotion, I really need to go back and get some rest.
"Bi~"
Nearby, the adorable Celebi, which had been fiddling with the time tunnel she had accidentally created, shook its head upon hearing the trainer's call and then abandoned the matter as if giving up.
Well, restoring the forest has consumed a lot of energy, and it really won't be finished in a short time.
Anyway, she just added a lot of restrictions, so weird people can't come over, and the problem isn't too big anymore.
Nestled in White Night's arms, Celebi inhaled the warm scent emanating from its trainer and happily squinted its eyes.
""
Not long after Bai Ye and the others left, the Hiyori Forest returned to silence.
A mature woman, dressed in a luxurious pencil skirt and with ample breasts and hips, trembled as she opened her eyes and looked around at her unfamiliar surroundings with a puzzled expression.
