Pokémon: From Magikarp

Chapter 808 The gangster eats the gangster!

"Is that really an elf..."

Bao Qinghua, who hadn't left just now, looked up at the battlefield between the Exploding Muscle Mosquito and the Bear-Clad Man with a dazed expression, muttering to himself.

Yang Lu stared at the man in the bear costume with fiery eyes, clenched fists, and felt extremely excited.

That's the power!

This kind of power is what she pursues. Even if it is just an ordinary elf, it can still be so powerful!

The battle between the elves stirred up gusts of wind, but the storms were extremely weak when they reached Lin Shi, and could only gently ruffle his hair.

Turning his head, Lin Shi looked at the nameless master with an indifferent expression. Curiosity took over again and he couldn't help but ask.

"What did Master Wuming do back then? Why did he fight the Explosive Mosquito here ten years ago?"

Lin Shi’s question made Wuming look sideways slightly, but he didn’t answer directly.

"What do you think, Mr. Lin?"

Lin Shi touched his chin and spoke slowly while thinking.

"Ten years ago, the Lion City Secret Realm was completely open to the outside world after its secrecy period. At that time, the Explosive Muscle Mosquito should have been in this secret realm. Since you were able to fight him, it means you must have been one of the first people to enter."

"In that case, only the pioneers and stowaways have a chance. Judging from your temperament, you're definitely not a stowaway, so you're a member of the alliance's pioneering team. And judging by your strength, you should have been the leader of the pioneering team at the time, the Zodiac King of North China, or even one of the Four Heavenly Kings?"

After saying that, Lin Shi looked at Master Wuming. As Lin Shi spoke, Wuming's eyes flickered, as if he was recalling something. Finally, he clasped his hands together and chanted a Buddhist name.

"Amitabha, Mr. Lin is very smart. I was indeed a member of the alliance's pioneering team back then, but I'm not a Zodiac Heavenly King, let alone one of the Four Heavenly Kings. Although the alliance wanted to give me the title, I refused."

"Why?" Lin Shi was a little confused.

"Because..." Wuming looked at the bear in the fierce battle, who looked like a god and a demon.

"I only have one elf, the bear."

Lin Shi pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized something. According to the alliance regulations, only those with two or more King-level Pokémon could be considered a King-level trainer, but...

What does it matter?

In the face of absolute strength, such rules are not important at all! The alliance is not so pedantic.

"When I met the Wearing Bear, it was just a newborn. I met it in the forest. It had been abandoned by its parents for some unknown reason. At that time, I had also lost my spirit due to a quest, so it was only natural for me to tame it."

As if influenced by Lin Shi's words, Wuming opened up and talked about his past with Wearing Bear.

"But I soon discovered that this little bear, still a child, was special. Compared to its peers of the same age, it was incredibly strong, and its strength seemed to be increasing every day."

"More importantly, it's very easily agitated. When it goes berserk, its eyes turn bloodshot and it attacks everything around it, even me."

Lin Shi had already seen this information from the appraisal, but compared to the cold comments, what Wuming faced as a trainer was much more complicated. Lin Shi did not say anything and listened carefully.

"At the time, all my colleagues were trying to persuade me to give up the teddy bear. A spirit like that, unable to control its emotions and ignoring its relatives when it went berserk, simply couldn't be a security bureau's assigned spirit."

"Ah, actually, I knew that too. I even tried to temporarily cultivate another Pokémon. I figured that even though Tong Puppets Bear had personality issues, I could just let him stay that way. At worst, I could just use another Pokémon when carrying out missions."

Having said that, Wuming sighed.

"But who could have imagined that the Little Bear, which I had barely nurtured, would become so powerful so quickly? The Pokémon I carefully nurtured was no match for the Little Bear. Whenever the Little Bear went berserk, it would be severely injured."

"Finally, the higher-ups gave me a final notice: either give up Bearcat and return to being a normal trainer, or be transferred from the front lines. They can't tolerate a time bomb like this in their team."

"I know for sure that the team is trying to force me to give up the teddy bear. Otherwise, carrying it around with me would be like carrying a burden, which is not right for a security guard who is constantly in danger."

Wuming's hand that was turning the rosary beads slowly stopped, but the sound still rang out slowly.

"The final result was obvious. I didn't give up on it. I didn't want it to be abandoned a second time. I also believed that its nature was good and I could help it change."

"After leaving the front line, I had more free time. After that, I put all my heart into the bear, helping it grow, helping it evolve, and helping it suppress its violent personality."

"During this time, I also discovered that the Wearing Bear's talent was terrifyingly strong. Its physical growth seemed to never stop, and there was no limit. As long as it trained, it would become stronger. Naturally, I immediately realized the terrifying power of this talent."

"But I also often feel fear. I'm afraid that if I can't teach the bear well and suppress its violent nature, it might one day attack and harm human society with such terrifying abilities, causing irreversible damage."

Lin Shi also looked at Wuming. He could hear the confusion he felt during that period from his words.

"I was living in fear, and one day, that fear really came true. That day, the bear was exercising and his ferocious nature took over again. He destroyed half of his neighbor's house with one punch."

"Luckily, the neighbor wasn't home at the time, so there were no casualties. I paid compensation to cover the cost later."

"I'm very thankful because it still had a bit of rationality at that time, but I also know that I can't let the bear continue like this. The more you suppress this kind of nature, the more terrifying it will be when it erupts."

"But perhaps it's because of all these years of companionship that I've finally become a little different in its eyes. Even though its nature sometimes controls it, it won't hurt me. I'll even comfort it."

Wuming continued speaking with an inexplicable look in his eyes.

"That's when I remembered my old trick. Since I can't suppress it, I'll find a way to let it vent this power!"

"From that moment on, North China saw the emergence of a brave and courageous trainer. Unafraid of danger or hardship, he would often appear in places where evil trainers or ferocious wild Pokémon roamed, defeating his opponents and wielding brutal tactics."

"People started calling him 'the hero', but it was just another kind of black-on-black situation!"
