Ultimately, Su Sheng still didn't answer Pansy's question, and together with Lusamine, Rose, and others, quickly entered the VIP lounge of the Galar Mine stadium, preparing for tomorrow's opening ceremony.
Feeling the vibration from the phone in his pocket, he conveniently felt the urge.
Su Sheng told the others and went to the restroom.
He unbuckled his belt and opened his phone.
Su Sheng found that the phone screen was full of emails and missed calls.
Su Sheng first replied to the email from Rika.
Rika's email was concise but enough to express her inner thoughts: "Just let me know when you've decided."
The rest—
Mei: 3 messages.
Toko: 2 messages.
Kiki: 6 messages.
Serena: 4 messages.
Blue: 1 message.
Green: 6 messages.
Kukui: 25 messages.
Giovanni: 37 messages.
……
……
Su Sheng replied to the group of kids, "Still considering."
Su Sheng thought for a moment and called Kukui first.
Kukui anxiously said that he would figure out the Bewear matter and told Su Sheng not to answer Rose's offer under any circumstances.
Su Sheng laughed, "Dr. Kukui, you don't need to panic so much, do you? At worst, you can hold the champion position for two years and then appoint the island king and captains as gym leaders."
For a league to be established, the most basic configuration is 1 champion + 8 gym leaders.
Although Kukui only barely touched the champion threshold, he was still champion-level after all.
And for the 8 gym leaders, although Alola is not large, it can still be put together.
Kukui was silent for a long time, then smiled bitterly: "I could have endured the darkness, but you showed me the light."
That's right, Kukui's dream of establishing a Pokémon League in Alola had indeed come true.
But the famous philosopher Sharpedo once said, "A person will never think they have too much food, nor will a person think their house is too big. When they have a small house, they will want a big house, and when they have a big house, they will want a whole area of big houses."
Kukui's psychology is a bit like this now.
Su Sheng helped him realize his dream of establishing the Alola League nearly ten years in advance.
But slowly, Kukui discovered that he not only wanted to establish a league in Alola, but also wanted to make Alola a top-ranked league.
And the biggest trump card in his hand was Su Sheng.
"Sorry, I'm already very grateful that you helped Alola join the league, but I'm so greedy," Kukui proactively apologized.
Su Sheng said with a smile, "I haven't said I'm leaving yet, Dr. Kukui, you don't need to feel guilty about this, it's human nature."
Desire is an important factor in human evolution, there's nothing to be ashamed of.
Moreover, Kukui is already selfless enough.
After all, he is doing it for Alola, not for himself.
Su Sheng had just hung up the call with Kukui when he immediately received a call from Giovanni.
"Su Sheng, do you need to set up a branch in Galar? Do you need me to send a team for you to command?"
Boss Giovanni's efficiency is as high as ever.
"Not for the time being, I'm still thinking about a solution to this matter," Su Sheng said truthfully.
His initial plan was for Bewear to make a splash and leave, and at worst, find a new boyfriend later.
As long as she has the ability, why worry about not having a man?
But feelings are hard to say, what if they "develop feelings over time"?
"Well… you can handle this matter as you see fit, it's just a matter of moving the branch from Alola to Galar," Giovanni said after a moment of thought:
"Actually, Galar is not bad either. As long as Rose can make Galar stronger, he is completely capable of doing some shady things, which can bring you far more benefits than Lusamine, who can only spread her legs…"
Giovanni analyzed objectively.
What he said is indeed correct.
Even if Rose knows Su Sheng's true identity, he won't say anything.
As long as you are willing to work in Galar, even if you are Team Rocket, or even Rainbow Rocket, Rose is willing to accept you.
Moreover, when facing talent, Rose is also willing to devote resources to cultivate them.
This can be seen from his actions in the anime, releasing Eternatus and then letting Leon capture it.
In comparison, what can Lusamine provide?
It's just letting Su Sheng have some fun. There are plenty of women in Galar who can do that, okay?
"Okay, okay, that's it, bye," Su Sheng hurriedly hung up the phone.
If he let Giovanni continue, this chapter would have to be censored.
Su Sheng returned to the VIP room and began discussing tomorrow's opening ceremony with Rose and Lusamine.
But the atmosphere was… indescribable.
And in the dozen or so minutes that Su Sheng was on the phone.
Just as Zacian hoped, the matter between him and Bewear shocked the world.
Unova 'Castelia Daily': "Obviously, Dr. Su Sheng has reservations about the relationship between Bewear and Zacian, but we tend to think he will choose to stay in Galar, because as long as Dr. Su Sheng stays, he will 99% become Zacian's father-in-law and trainer, and even Dr. Su Sheng will probably find it difficult to resist the temptation of owning a top legendary."
Johto 'Goldenrod TV': "I have to say that the Galar League's methods are very effective, sending Zacian as a live-in son-in-law to try to kidnap Dr. Su Sheng emotionally to stay in Galar. This behavior is more clever than sexual transactions."
Galar 'Motostoke TV': "Regarding Dr. Su Sheng's departure, Chairman Rose has not given an answer yet, but we interviewed many local gym trainers gathered in Motostoke preparing to participate in the Galar Star Tournament, and they all said they would very much welcome Dr. Su Sheng to stay. If Dr. Su Sheng stays in Galar, then his two companions, Ituski and Karen, are also very likely to join. Adding the current champion Leon, and Raihan and Piers, who have Elite Four strength, the Galar League will become the strongest combination in league history!"
Kalos 'Lumiose TV': "According to our station's investigation, Dr. Su Sheng and his party spent nearly 10 days in Snowbelle City, during which Bewear and Zacian broke 7 double beds, but according to local villagers, they saw Zacian blowing the wind on the hotel balcony late at night for many days, afraid to return to the bedroom, with a very melancholy expression…"
……
……
The next day, 10 AM, Galar Mine Stadium.
Fireworks "bang bang" bloomed in the sky above the stadium.
"Hello everyone, welcome to the Galar region!"
The elevator platform in the center of the stadium started, and Rose walked out from it, waving his hand and introducing:
"Our Galar region has extremely beautiful natural landscapes and prosperous towns. Many Pokémon and people live here together, happily."
"And today, I, Rose, will be issuing the Pokédex, which can identify Pokémon and was invented by the world's greatest scientist, Dr. Su Sheng, to the trainers of Galar!"
As he said that, Rose took out the first-generation Pokédex from his suit pocket with his left hand and waved his right hand towards the VIP platform at the top of the audience.
The stadium's spotlight shone in the direction of Rose's wave, landing right on Su Sheng in the center seat of the VIP platform.
"Oh oh oh oh—"
Su Sheng raised his hand and waved lightly, and the audience immediately responded with thunderous cheers.
In the women's locker room, seeing this scene on the broadcast TV on the wall, Bea's eyes flashed with admiration, and she said, "This level of welcome is not inferior to Leon's."
Marnie nodded, "After all, if Dr. Su Sheng stays, our Galar will be able to compete with Kanto in strength."
……
The spotlight didn't focus on Su Sheng for too long. Rose put away the Pokédex and pointed to the elevator platform again.
"Next, let us invite our pride of Galar, Champion Leon, to light the sacred fire!"
The elevator platform started again, and Leon and Charizard appeared together.
Leon once again made his signature gesture to ignite the atmosphere.
"Charizard! Gigantamax!"
Igniting the atmosphere to a new boiling point, Leon waved his hand and shouted.
In response to the energy of Leon's Dynamax Band, Charizard's body visibly expanded.
Expanding to Godzilla-level size.
The burning flames wrapped around its wings, turning into wings of fire.
Gigantamax Charizard!
"Woo—" Gigantamax Charizard spewed flames, which turned into a phoenix in flight and landed in the altar at the top center of the stadium.
The sacred fire was lit!
"So much face given," Su Sheng, who was watching the show with his legs crossed, complained.
The fire used in the Indigo Plateau Conference was Moltres's, the fire used in the Silver Conference was Ho-Oh's, and Su Sheng couldn't remember whose fire was used in the conferences of other league regions.
But Galar actually used Leon's Charizard… it can only be said that this treatment is unmatched.
However, Gigantamax is indeed very spectacular, and having Gigantamax Charizard light the fire on the spot is indeed more atmospheric than a sacred fire runner.
It's a matter of opinion.
"Su Sheng, are you leaving Alola?" This magnificent opening ceremony didn't attract Lillie's attention. The little girl pursed her pink lips and looked at Su Sheng reluctantly.
"Don't worry, probably not," Su Sheng comforted the little girl.
When leaving the hotel today, Su Sheng originally planned to leave Bewear at the hotel to stay with Zacian.
But Bewear still chose to follow Su Sheng to the scene, making Zacian sad for a while.
If Bewear doesn't have any thoughts about Zacian, Su Sheng wouldn't stay.
Zacian's attraction to him is not that great.
But Su Sheng didn't say anything definitive. When he came out in the morning, Zacian also said that he planned to return to Slumbering Weald to get his shield.
As long as he takes out the Shielded Hero form, Bewear won't think he's weak anymore.
Hearing the word "probably," Lusamine's family of three lost interest in watching the match.
"Next, let us invite the participants of this year's Galar Star Tournament!"
After the sacred fire was lit, Rose waved his hand again.
Dozens of players in competition uniforms appeared together.
Among them were Milo, Raihan and other current Galar gym leaders, and Bea, Allister and other reserve gym leaders.
Among them, Milo, whose plump figure couldn't be covered by even a thick down jacket, Raihan, who had a handsome appearance, and Nessa, who was like a mermaid, were the focus of the audience's cheers.
The Galar Star Tournament is not the same as the league tournaments in other regions.
Other league tournaments basically have hundreds of participants.
These participants now hold preliminary rounds with rules of 1V1 or 3V3 in small venues around the stadium.
When only dozens of people are left, they will go to the stadium for 6V6 full-team elimination matches.
The Galar Star Tournament is different. Rose initially limited the number of people participating in the Star Tournament to dozens.
They play 6V6 full-team duels from the beginning.
And there is another very different thing from other league tournaments.
That is, the gym leaders will also participate as ordinary players from the first round.
Instead of choosing a league champion first, and then this league champion will play a champion challenge match with the gym leaders like other leagues.
"Hmm?"
Su Sheng suddenly noticed that there were a few familiar figures in the player queue.
Sonia, who was holding "Pikachu" next to her, noticed Su Sheng's gaze and explained:
"Doctor, are you concerned about those newcomers? I heard that they are foreign trainers who just joined Galar from other regions this month. Because they have great potential, Chairman Rose gave them invitations and made an exception to participate in this Star Tournament."
As soon as Sonia finished speaking, the big screen listed the headshots of dozens of players.
And under the headshots, their names were written.
Forrest! Lisia!
When he saw these two names, Su Sheng's expression became a little strange.
Is this the storm set off by his butterfly?
But it's okay, I feel like things will become more interesting.
Buzz buzz~
Feeling the vibration from the phone in his pocket.
Su Sheng took it out and looked at it.
It was a message from Giovanni.
It gave an address, the coordinates were Slateport City in the Hoenn region.
And a line of text—Rika was attacked.
Su Sheng's eyebrows suddenly furrowed.
What's going on?!
"Su Sheng, this…"
Itsuki, who came up to see the content of the email, also changed his face drastically.
"Looks like the fun is over," Su Sheng put away his phone and prepared to run away.
"Leave now? Tens of thousands of eyes are watching us," Itsuki whispered, looking around.
Although the players are appearing one after another, some of the hundred thousand live audience members still glance at the VIP platform from time to time.
And the camera lens also shines on Su Sheng from time to time.
People who don't know will think he is the protagonist.
If Su Sheng leaves at this time, the whole world will be curious about where he went.
And if you want to go to Hoenn, it will take nearly ten hours just to travel back and forth, you can't say you're going to the bathroom, right?
"It just so happens that Zorua is not here… huh?"
Su Sheng suddenly noticed "Pikachu" sitting on Sonia's lap.
At this time, it was sitting on Sonia's meaty thighs wrapped in jeans, its head was close to the other party's D-cup chest pad, watching the game while enjoying the other party's feeding.
"I'm going to the bathroom," Su Sheng grabbed "Pikachu" by the scruff of its neck and walked out.
Seeing this, Itsuki quickly followed.
Pikachu: ???
Sonia was also full of question marks, why did she call Pikachu to go to the bathroom together?
……
Five minutes later, in the men's bathroom of Mine Stadium.
"That's the way things are, so I'm going on a long trip now. Before I come back, you will become me, and do whatever you need to do."
Su Sheng placed "Pikachu" on the sink and quickly explained the current situation.
“Chu~”
Although maintaining the appearance of a yellow-skinned mouse, since there were no outsiders, "Pikachu" was too lazy to disguise its real voice.
After listening to Su Sheng's request, "Pikachu" leaned against the mirror, squinting with a cheeky look.
[Why should I help you?]
“Tsk~”
So Su Sheng had never liked cats in his previous lives, their personalities were too difficult!
"What do you want?"
Not knowing what the situation was on Lihua's side, Su Sheng was too lazy to waste words and directly asked this bootleg yellow-skinned mouse to state its conditions.
[Chu~ I don't seem to lack anything~]
"Pikachu" scratched its chin in confusion.
If it wanted something to eat, it could just teleport to a human store and take it.
If it wanted something to play with, it hadn't finished watching the excitement of that Bewear and the big dog Zacian.
Upon closer inspection, it really didn't lack anything.
[Speaking of which, you seem to have another identity to hide, so I think it's better not to help you. I feel like more interesting things will happen after your identity is exposed, chu~]
"Pikachu" seemed to have thought of something interesting, and giggled mischievously.
Su Sheng's eyes widened.
If he didn't need this thieving cat's help right now, he would have given it a smack.
After thinking for a while, Su Sheng asked, "Have you ever played video games?"
"Pikachu" blinked its eyes blankly, "Chu?"
......
......
Five minutes later, Sonia turned her head when she heard footsteps behind her.
She found that Su Sheng had returned.
"Eh? Pika..."
Sonia was about to ask where Pikachu had gone.
However, the next second, "Su Sheng" plopped down on Sonia's lap.
"Kyaa!"
Sonia screamed and struggled, pushing Su Sheng away, her face as red as a monkey's butt, "What's wrong with you!?"
Lusamine's family of three, as well as Rose, who had just announced the official start of the competition and returned to the VIP stand to win over Su Sheng, were also dumbfounded.
Ah, this, what, what's going on?
Su Sheng, who fell on his butt, also looked resentful.
Why did you hit me?
Don't you like me sitting on your lap?
The next second, "Su Sheng" noticed his appearance.
Oh, right, he almost forgot that he was that guy now.
"Su Sheng" sat back on the sofa and continued to watch the competition.
But the movements of his hands didn't stop at all, stuffing the snacks on the table into his mouth.
However, although "Su Sheng" had an expression as if nothing had happened.
The mood of everyone on the VIP stand could no longer remain calm.
Feeling the faint residual masculine aura on her thigh, Sonia, her red face almost buried in her chest, couldn't help but secretly look at "Su Sheng" who was gorging himself.
What does he mean?
Lusamine thought with a pitiful look, "As expected... I'm still old."
Lillie: "Brother Su Sheng... why did he become like this..."
Gladion: "If Brother Su Sheng leaves, how are we going to deal with those Team Rocket villains!"
Olivia: "Chairman, the situation is a bit out of control."
Rose: "I was too careless, I thought Su Sheng's target was widowed women, I didn't expect that anyone with a hint of ambiguity was his hunting target."
......
......
On the other side, Su Sheng Yishu rode on Galarian Articuno's back, flying to the Hoenn region on the other side of the sea.
"Asheng, is it okay if I'm not there? Mew said it can only transform into one person after all, and we're both gone..."
Yishu asked, thinking of a question.
Su Sheng: "You don't have to worry about this, no one cares where you go."
Yishu: ...
The author will work hard to write interesting stories. I can accept average results, but please leave more messages. After all, it's still lonely to write a book alone. Please support me, thank you.
