Pokémon: I just became a Gym Leader, and Cynthia proposed to me.

Chapter 649 The Curtain Dojo and the Seven Calabash Brothers

Tanjiro, Nezuko, and Li Shuwen had a feeling that the most suitable Pokémon for them, the one with the most sword sheath, might be the one with the most sword sheath.

After all, the single-scabbard is, in a sense, a Demon Slayer blade.

It can help the brother and sister to fully develop their talents.

Of course, Neneko might need a Pokémon with the Sharpness ability to fully unleash her Swordsman talent.

Li Shuwen shook his head again, thinking that premature exposure to Pokémon with the Sharpness ability might actually hinder Neneko from developing her swordsmanship talent.

Seeing Li Shuwen shake his head, Tanjiro and Nezuko felt a pang of anxiety.

Although they burned charcoal in the countryside, they had heard of the legendary Midas touch, Li Shuwen.

When they heard that Li Shuwen, the Midas Touch, was willing to take them, the siblings, as his apprentices, their father and mother were overjoyed.

Now that Midas is shaking his head, does it mean he thinks the brother and sister aren't talented enough?

Sensing their emotions, Li Shuwen smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm just thinking about how to raise you two siblings."

Let's lay a solid foundation first, and then let them decide for themselves in two months which direction to develop in.

Peter, whose body was altered to that of a mini-Superman after being bitten by the venom of a spider, has begun a passionate and youthful physical training regimen with Kai.

"New Moon, arrange rooms for the siblings. Tonight, have them do basic physical training with you."

"Tomorrow, based on their training performance, determine whether their physical condition meets the standard for training with Akai."

Crescent Moon nodded. "Yes, Master."

Xinyue led the two siblings to an empty room to settle in, and introduced herself, "Hello, I am Xinyue, the second disciple of the Veiled Dojo."

"From now on, you will be the fifth and sixth disciples of the Veil Dojo."

"The Ah Kai that Master mentioned earlier is our eldest brother. He is proficient in body training and can lift the Rumble Stone with one hand and throw it ten meters away."

Tanjiro's eyes widened immediately. "My senior brother is amazing!"

Midouzi nodded in agreement, "It feels like Senior Brother's strength is much greater than that of the father who successfully chased away the Circle Bear with a wood-chopping axe."

Crescent Moon blinked. "Defeat the Circle Bear with an axe?"

Tanjiro replied matter-of-factly, "Because we live in the mountains, we often clash with the Pokémon there."

"Not long ago, my mother even used her head to knock away a hairy pig that came to steal her food."

Crescent Moon was so surprised she forgot to blink. "He used his head to ram a hairy pig away?"

Is this even human?

Crescent Moon seemed to understand why her master was willing to take them in as siblings.

Crescent Moon's supposedly decent perception while in the forest was utterly insignificant compared to Tanjiro's nose, which could detect even a hidden Gastly.

Fortunately, Crescent Moon also has some talent in archery.

Previously, due to insufficient power, the crescent moon could only shoot at the leaves of willow branches swaying in the wind from fifty paces away.

Now that its strength has increased considerably, Crescent Moon can now hit willow leaves eighty paces away.

Xinyue felt that by the time she was fifteen, she should be able to hit a target from a hundred paces away.

The arrival of three junior brothers and sisters has already put considerable pressure on Xinyue.

Li Shuwen released his waveguide power to observe Peter's training progress.

Peter, who was focused on training, suddenly looked up and looked around.

Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow. It seemed that Peter, who had been bitten by the orb-weaver spider, also had a similar experience.

He was able to sense that Li Shuwen was using his waveguide power to observe him.

With these three apprentices joining the family, one can imagine the immense pressure that Xinyue and Ajin would face.

As for Akai, he must be very happy to have three energetic junior brothers and sisters to accompany him in burning with youth.

Especially Tanjiro and Nezuko, those two stubborn kids.

Their basic physical constitution wasn't as strong as Peter the Spider Demon's, but such talents were actually more suited to practicing youthful physical techniques.

With the introduction of three new members, the training atmosphere at the Veil Dojo instantly became extremely lively.

Early the next morning, Li Shuwen was preparing to go out to check on the Water Tower and the Evil Tower, as both towers were nearing completion.

To match the high intensity of Pokémon battles, both towers, each five stories high, used high-strength building materials.

Avoid injuries caused by combat.

Once the two towers are completed, Li Shuwen will hang the Water Scroll and the Evil Scroll on the top floor, which is said to attract Xiong's disciple to come and cultivate.

Li Shuwen was just curious: Are there any Kuma-no-Kami living in the Sinnoh region?

Logically speaking, since there are Kuma's apprentices who migrated from the Galar region, there should be some in the Sinnoh region as well.

At that time, Li Shuwen will first train one martial arts bear master each of the one-hit-strike style and the one of the combo-strike style.

Set an example for your apprentices.

The choice between a one-hit-kill style and a combo-style style can also provide some guidance for the disciples' life paths.

As soon as Li Shuwen opened the door, he saw the police chief standing outside with a little girl with red hair.

Upon seeing Li Shuwen, he immediately walked up to him with great enthusiasm.

Li Shuwen smiled and asked, "Director Gordon, what's this?"

Director Gordon smiled ingratiatingly, "I heard that the Bookkeeper is planning to take on some more apprentices. I wonder if you would consider my daughter?"

The little red-haired girl stared at Li Shuwen with adoring eyes.

Director Gordon said with a smile, "Barbara has always wanted to become an excellent trainer, and I originally wanted her to go to trainer school."

"But she felt that what the trainer school taught was meaningless, so the teacher had to send her back to me."

"Barbara is rather unruly. I think only under the guidance of the librarian can Barbara study seriously."

Barbara Gordon, this young lady must be quite talented.

Li Shuwen nodded. "Okay, I'll take her."

The little girl immediately jumped in front of Li Shuwen and said excitedly:

"Master, what are we learning today?"

Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow. "Let me see what Pokémon you have first."

Barbara took out a Poké Ball and released a small purple bat and a green cell.

The buzzing bat, a single-celled sphere.

Li Shuwen asked casually, "Which of these two Pokémon do you find easier to command?"

This question stumped Barbara. After thinking for a moment, Barbara said, "It used to be the buzzing bat, but after being expelled, I feel that the single ovum is more convenient to handle."

Li Shuwen nodded. "Do you feel an invisible connection between yourself and the single ovum?"

Barbara blinked. "It seems so, Master. How did you know?"

Li Shuwen's eyes emitted a blue light, and Barbara, resonating with this superpower, also had a faint blue light emanating from her eyes.

"It seems I was right, you did indeed awaken superpowers because of the blow of dropping out of school."

"Of course, with the tempering of your character, you might still be able to train a Dragon Pokémon. You must remember that."

"For a dragon, failure is not terrible; what is terrible is the fear of failure!"

"As long as you maintain your fighting spirit, the Dragon Pokémon will never abandon you!"

Barbara's fighting spirit was immediately ignited. "Yes, I understand, Master!"

Li Shuwen turned to Gordon and said, "Director, I'll take Barbara in. She'll need to stay at the Veiled Dojo to focus on her training from now on."

"Is everything alright?"

Gordon nodded repeatedly, "No problem!"

With Barbara included, the Curtain Dojo has finally gathered all seven Calabash Brothers.
