Not a Trainer This Time

Chapter 627: Hero Expedition Team Members +1

"Pikapi..."

Ash and Pikachu looked at this scene in disbelief.

Especially Xiaozhi, he froze on the spot and couldn't recover for a long time. That Shadow Hoopa and so many legendary Pokémon were defeated so easily by Mr. Naoki?

At this moment, in addition to Kyurem, the Pokémon that were summoned and controlled by Shadow Hoopa were also coming over one after another.

However, they did not come forward, but slowly floated to the left and right sides of Naoshu, looking at what was happening here.

Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, Ho-Oh, Crown King riding a white horse, Giratina...

"Wow…"

Xiaozhi's eyes suddenly shone with excitement. Mr. Naoki was indeed the mysterious masked man!

"Xiaozhi, you did a good job." Naoki nodded at him, and then said: "Thank you for your hard work, Latias, Latios."

"Woo~"

After the incident ended, the legendary Pokémon summoned by Shadow Hoopa also began to make their way back one after another.

A surge of space-time energy arose in the sky, and two vortices slowly emerged. Dialga and Palkia flew into them, returning to their own latitudes.

Rayquaza nodded his head towards the tree, and his huge body rushed into the sky like a swimming dragon, and soon disappeared.

Giratina wanted to go back with Naoki along the way, but seeing that Naoki seemed to have some unfinished business, he roared and turned back to the reverse world.

In the end, only Guluton, Groudon and King Lei Guan were left around Naoki.

Seeing Groudon's appearance, Naoki couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, but he still said to Hupa:

"Hupa, please send Groudon back to his original place!"

"No problem! Leave it to Hupa!"

A golden halo flew out from Hupa's body, forming a huge light gate in front of Groudon.

Groudon walked among them, and he breathed a sigh of relief until he saw the familiar scene around him.

Fortunately, I'm back.

The halo was retracted, and at this time, Mayali, Balza and his team also rushed back with the completed Pot of Punishment.

When they saw Hupa who had calmed down, they were stunned.

"Where is Shadow Hoopa?" Balza tried to search, but could not find Shadow Hoopa's aura.

Mayali covered her mouth and looked at Hupa with a grin on her face in disbelief.

"Here is Hoopa!" said Hoopa.

"What on earth is going on?" Serena's eyes were filled with confusion.

"Mr. Naoki used his power to purify the anger of Shadow Hoopa. Now Hoopa has regained its true power!" Xiaozhi excitedly explained to everyone.

Mayali and Balza were stunned for a moment.

Anger...purified? How is this done?

But soon, Balza reacted quickly. He looked at Naoki and thanked him seriously.

"Thank you very much for your help, Mr. Naoki."

"You're welcome." Naoki turned his attention to Hupa again: "The matter is not completely over."

Balza was startled: "What do you mean?"

"Although Hoopa has regained its true power, the disciplinary power exerted on it has still not been lifted." Naoki explained.

Upon hearing this, Balza and Mayali immediately understood.

Hoopa has not been able to pass through his own halo!

Hoopa returned to his small form. It created a halo and tried to pass through it.

But it was as if there was a layer of light blocking it. No matter how hard it tried, it couldn't get through.

Hoopa couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

Seeing this, Xiaozhi immediately ran forward. He hugged Hupa and wanted to take it through.

"Don't give up, Hoopa! Let's work together!"

Hupa was stunned for a moment. He looked at Xiaozhi who was serious in front of him, and then nodded his head vigorously: "Yeah! Hupa hasn't given up yet!"

"come on!"

After that, Xiaozhi hugged Hupa and rushed into the halo.

But without any restrictions, he passed through it all at once, but Hupa was still blocked on the other side.

Xiaozhi still didn't give up. Since he couldn't do it from the other side, he would pull it from this side!

"Hupa, give me your hand!" Xiaozhi grabbed Hupa's hand.

"We're here to help too!" Serena and Citron also ran forward.

"Brother, you go to the back and I'll help from the front!" Mayali said.

Balza hummed, and the brother and sister came to both sides of the halo, stretched out their hands, and the Arceus pendants hanging around their necks suddenly emitted a golden brilliance.

The light enveloped Hupa, trying to help it break the seal.

As time passed by, everyone gritted their teeth and tried to break through this seal through brute force.

“…”

After a while, Zhi Shu sighed, stepped forward and said to Hu Pa:

"Hupa, haven't you understood the true meaning of punishment?"

"Punishment?" Hupa looked at Naoki while exerting force.

"Now that you have such a powerful power, if you return to the Valley of Creation with Mayali Balza, will you still use this power to bring disaster to the Valley of Creation like you did a hundred years ago?" Shu asked.

Hearing this, Mayali and Balza were slightly startled.

Hupa shook his little head vigorously: "Of course not! Mayali and Balza are Hupa's family members! Everyone in the Valley of Creation is also very kind to Hupa, so Hupa will not hurt them!"

"So you already understand?" Naoki smiled slightly: "Look, everyone is working hard for you and waiting for you to lift the seal. Everyone in the Valley of Creation is also waiting for you to go back and make trouble and live with you. ”

Hupa was stunned for a moment, as all the past events appeared in his mind.

Whether it was a hundred years ago or the experience in the Valley of Creation...

family…

That's right! Gulis also said this to it, they are family, Mayali and Balza are family too!

Everyone is waiting for it to go back!

When the time comes, it will use its true power to help everyone, and this time it will never mess up again!

Realizing this, Hupa felt that the barrier in front of him suddenly disappeared.

The next second, its body miraculously passed through the halo.

Hupa looked at his halo with surprise on his face: "Hupa did it!"

Mayali and Balza were also extremely excited.

"Very good…"

Everyone high-fived in celebration.

Naoki stood not far away and looked at this scene, his mind was indeed an idealistic world!

Hoopa has his own family and friends in the Valley of Creation, and it seems unlikely that he will be able to return to the World Tree with them.

After a moment's thought, Naoki gave up his original plan.

As for now... things are done, it's time for them to go home!

Naoki asked Hupa to use the halo to send him, Gullton and King Lei Guan back to the ranch.

Hupa readily agreed: "Leave it to Hupa!"

"Mr. Naoki, goodbye!" Ash and Pikachu waved goodbye to Naoki vigorously.

"Come on for the Carlos Conference!" Naoki smiled slightly.

"I will definitely do it!" Xiaozhi's eyes were full of fighting spirit.

Naoki glanced at Yurika and Serina again.

Now that the crisis in Team Flare has been resolved, Xiao Ruan may not be traveling with Yulijia all the time. Now it seems that Yulijia is also a veritable mythical beast girl! As for Serena…

Speaking of which, this is the first companion in the anime to express his affection for Ash. Unfortunately, Ash only knows Pokémon battles and misses the girl's feelings.

However, these are Xiaozhi's stories.

Naoki withdrew his gaze and looked at the heroes expedition team.

"I'll wait for you at the ranch."

"miu~" Mew, Baby Bear, and Victini nodded happily.

When the Chinese New Year is approaching, they will return to the pasture!

"So, goodbye, everyone!"

Naoki nodded to everyone, then turned around and passed through the halo, returning to the ranch.

At the end, Xiaozhi and his team also said goodbye to Hupa, Balza, and Mayali, and embarked on a journey to the city where the next badge is located.

Hupa, Balza, and Mayali left Desert City and returned to their hometown, the Valley of Creation.

Now with all his power, Hoopa can finally stop messing up.

It successfully summoned rain and helped Grandpa Dam irrigate the fields. A happy smile was seen on Grandpa Dam's face.

It used its own strength to help Granny Meila carry the goods that she couldn't move. Granny Meila happily gave it a lot of donuts to eat.

One thing after another.

Hupa is very happy every time he sees the smiles on everyone's faces.

Mengmeng, Victini and Baby Bear who came with Hupa were also sincerely happy for Hupa.

They originally wanted to invite Hupa to join the Heroes Expedition, but now it seems that Hupa also has his own life here.

So, after staying in the Valley of Creation for a few days, Mew, Baby Bear, and Victini found Hupa.

"miu!" (We're leaving!)

Hupa was stunned and asked quickly: "Where are you going?"

Baby Bear replied: "One!" (We are the Heroes Expedition Team, and we are going to continue our journey and help Pokémon in need around the world!)

"Then will Hupa see you again?" Hupa asked reluctantly.

"miu~" (Of course you can~)

Curious about the adventures of the Heroes Expedition, Hupa slept next to the Dreams that night and listened to them tell interesting things that happened during the trip.

For example, they helped a careless green onion duck find green onions, and together with Naoki, they helped a Nine-Tails fulfill its wish. They also solved the war crisis between an armored rhinoceros and a desert dragonfly and helped them get back together. And so on.

Hupa opened his eyes curiously, listening to these words.

The trip of the Hero Expedition sounds so interesting!

It also wants to play together!

But the Valley of Creation still needs its help...

Hupa sighed, and his unhappy look was soon noticed by Mayali.

"What's wrong, Hupa, did you encounter something unhappy?" Mayali asked.

Hupa then told Mayali the story of the Heroes expedition.

After listening, Mayali immediately understood what Hupa was thinking.

A gentle smile appeared on her face, and she said to Hupa: "If you want to go, you can also travel with Mew and them!"

Hupa raised his head in disbelief, but soon, he became a little worried: "But what will Mayali and Balza do if Hupa is gone? Hupa will miss Mayali and Balza, and you will also miss Hupa." Pa, right?"

Mayali smiled and then pointed at the halo around Hupa.

"Aren't you able to pass through the halo now? If you miss us, you can pass through it anytime and anywhere and return to the Valley of Creation to see us!"

"That's right!" Hupa laughed stupidly.

So early the next morning, when the Heroes expedition team packed up their things and prepared to say goodbye to Hupa, Balza and Mayali, they saw Hupa following them out carrying large and small bags.

As it chased, it shouted: "Wait Hupa!"

Meng Meng looked over in confusion: "miu?"

Do these packages contain separate gifts for them?

But the next second, what Hupa said made several Pokémon in the Hero Expedition freeze in place.

"Hupa has decided to go out with you!" Hupa said excitedly: "Mayali and Balza also agreed!"

"One?!"

"miu?"

"Nini?!"

The three Pokémon were extremely shocked.

Baby Bear still retains his original thinking: "One... one?" (But if you leave, what will Mayalibalza and everyone in the Valley of Creation do?)

"It doesn't matter!" Hupa summoned the halo on his body: "As long as the halo is there, Hupa can come back anytime and anywhere, and see Mayali and Balza anytime and anywhere!"

Baby Bear, Dream, Victini: “…”

I almost forgot that Hupa also has a magical aura.

At this time, Balza and Mayali also walked out of the house. The brother and sister looked at Hupa who was carrying large and small bags and said:

"Be careful all the way!"

"Hupa knows!" Hupa smiled and waved to the two of them: "Mayali, when Balza misses Hupa, Hupa will come back to see you!"

Mayali chuckled: "Go ahead and have fun."

"Yeah!" Hupa nodded vigorously.

It's getting late and it's time for them to set off.

After saying their final goodbyes, Mew, Baby Bear, Victini, and Hupa left the Valley of Creation on the Lightning Bird and flew in a farther direction.

What awaits them ahead is a brand new journey.

*

October 15, 203 in the alliance calendar, winter.

As soon as autumn passes, a new round of cooling begins in the Pathiasi region.

The gym trip has come to an end, and gym leaders from all over the country have begun taking vacations one after another.

What follows is the upcoming alliance conference.

Qishu also took a vacation, and while it hadn't snowed yet, Naoki began to make plans to spend the winter in the Alola region.

There are no problems with the Pokémon in the ranch. The ranch he bought in the Alola region has complete facilities and a large open pasture for the Pokémon to run.

For the mount goats and salt djinn, they just changed places.

Zac's Naoki has already agreed that this winter he plans to take his family and Pokémon to the warm Alola to spend the winter and temporarily stop exporting goods.

Now Xiaoshu is ten months old. After a month of practice, she can already call out "dad" and "mom" clearly.

Next comes the critical period of a child's growth - learning to stand.

The weather here in Padia is cold, and children can only live in the living room if they want to move around. In comparison, the Alola region is more suitable.

The open grassland and warm and comfortable climate are not only suitable for Pokémon, but also for small trees to practice standing and explore the world.

Thinking of this, Naoki had an idea in his mind.

I have decided to leave for the Alola region to spend the winter the day after tomorrow!
