Pokémon the Movie: The Journey of a Slate

Chapter 340: Lily of the Valley Conference, Opening



Chapter 340: Lily of the Valley Conference, Opening

"Haha... we're finally here."

The sea breeze swept across the deck with salty water vapor, and Eslo put his arm on the mast. The sunlight was broken into thousands of silver scales on the crest of the wave, and the outline of Lily of the Valley Island in the distance was gradually becoming clear with the hum of the cruise ship engine. He reached out and pressed the hem of his black windbreaker that was lifted by the sea breeze, and heard familiar footsteps coming from behind him.

"Molubeko said she smelled the unique aroma of tree fruits on land." Mary handed him the iced tree juice, and the silver rivet collar shimmered in the sun. Molubeko, who was lying on her shoulder, was drooling over the snacks that Aisiluo had just taken out, and his fur was still stained with the crumbs of blue orange fruit that he had secretly eaten for breakfast.

At this time, a month had passed since the end of the Holy Fire Conference. During this period, several people and many elves had been training hard.

After throwing some snacks to the long-winged gulls in the sky, Eslo pulled Mary back into the cabin to pack their bags.

Seeing this, Darko, who was quietly basking in the sun, casually patted the Poké Ball on his waist. With a "bang" sound, Latios rolled his eyes at the young man and disappeared on the spot with a flash of pink light. He was going to do hard labor.

It is worth mentioning that Xiaozhi, Shinji and others were not on the same ship with Aislo and others because Xiaozhi got up a little late today.

Not long after, as the scene changed, the cruise ship docked at a technologically advanced pier. When Eslo and his companions got off the ship, they saw the bustling scene with people coming and going.

"It's really lively here." Dakodo chuckled after looking around.

"With the opening of the conference, trainers, media and tourists from various regions are rushing here..." Marie didn't have much to say about this. Although such scenes rarely occurred in her hometown, Spike Town, Galar was a region famous for battles, with countless large and small competitions, so the girl was no stranger to such scenes.

"Mobe Mobe!"

Although Mary is used to this, the greedy little hamster is always tempted by the snack stands - she is hungry again.

Darko was slightly stunned when he saw this. It seemed that they had just finished their meal not long ago. "Should I say that he is worthy of being called Snorlax?"

"It's still early. It doesn't matter if we go to the athletes' village later. How about we go shopping in the shopping street first?" Aislo suggested. His little Morubeko appeared out of nowhere, and her soft and cute voice echoed softly in his ears, which was enough to make one's bones soften.

"Okay!" x2

The boy's proposal was passed without any hindrance.

……

When it was getting dark and the sun was shining brightly, Aislo, Mary and Dakdo went to the athletes' village contentedly.

"How is it? Are you full?" Eslo looked at Zoroark in his arms with a smile, and the boy reached out and gently patted the little fox's round belly.

"Of course I'm full...(*?′╰╯`?)" Zoroya stretched out his four claws hard, trying to touch Eslo's slender white fingers. Unfortunately, due to the obstruction of his stomach, he was unable to complete this "difficult" action, but instead looked a little funny.

The girl came over at this time and joined in teasing the little fox. Of course, the two of them still knew the right balance so as not to make Zoroark feel uncomfortable.

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Dakdo, who deliberately lagged behind the two people by a few steps, looked at the intimate boy and girl in front of him and couldn't help shaking his head and lamenting how difficult it is for single people to survive in today's world. Perhaps he should not be here, but under the car.

Just as Dakodo shook his head, four different voices sounded instantly.

[You are still here? When will you find a girlfriend and give us both a chance to show our respect?]

【That's it! 】

[Dakdo, you need to work harder. ]

[Hurry up, little Dakodo. Time waits for no one. You are not young anymore. You will be 30 in the blink of an eye...]

Latios came over to disrupt as usual, and Darkrai echoed almost reflexively. The new member Lugia teased with his childish voice, and as for Grandma Gengar, she came to watch the fun.

"What does my finding a girlfriend have to do with you two? How dare you? Lugia, you little kid, stop making trouble. And grandma Gengar, why are you here to join in the fun?" Darko's face was not only speechless but also a little helpless. He still respected Eslo, an old man who had lived for more than 2000 years.

[Hey, how can you say that our son has a girlfriend and it has nothing to do with us?] Latios said jokingly.

[That’s right!] This time it was Geng Gui’s grandmother’s turn to agree.

"It's not you..." Dakodo was speechless. He had never thought in his life that as an orphan, he would be urged to get married.

And at this moment, a young man's voice successfully rescued Dakodo.

"Hey? Xiao Luo, Mary, and Dakoto?"

"Pika pika!"

The voices of the man and the Pokémon were as enthusiastic as ever, and there was almost no need to distinguish them before Eslo knew the identities of the visitors: they were Satoshi and Pikachu.

Behind Xiaozhi and Pikachu, Xiaogang and Xiaoguang were jogging over.

"Hey, Xiaozhi, why are you running so fast suddenly...Mary? And Xiao Luo and Darko?" Xiaoguang, whose breathing was a little heavier, was slightly stunned after seeing the three people in the distance clearly.

After chatting for a while, the six of them walked together towards the central square of Lily of the Valley Island.

……

That night, even when I had already fallen asleep, Lily of the Valley Island was bustling with people, and from time to time I could see the brilliant lights flashing in the central square.

This is the opening ceremony of the Lily of the Valley Conference in progress.

In the central square, if no one looked up at the sky, one would probably think it was daytime, and Aislo was standing side by side with Dakdo.

The black-haired boy looked around at the contestants. He roughly estimated that there were about 60 people. In addition to Xiaozhi, Ajin, Shinji and others, Eslo also saw a few figures who seemed familiar to him, but he didn't have any other impression. He thought they were challengers he had met along the way.

After retracting his gaze, Aislo looked towards the high platform in the distance, where President Damagangqi and Sirona stood side by side.

After nodding gently to the blonde beauty in the distance, Aislo began to enjoy the opening ceremony again.

Soon, the opening ceremony ended, and the alliance staff announced the list of players for the first round of the Lily of the Valley Conference.

There were two people in a group, 32 groups in total. Aislo found himself and his opponent with just a quick glance. The man was called Jiuping, and the boy had no impression of him.

But...Aislo looked at the audience behind him and met Mary's gaze.

I guess this opening ceremony wasn’t too boring.
