Pokemon, a genius scientist who traveled from one piece

"Y-You, what do you want to do!?"

Joker's line was just like those of the malicious villains in Pear Blossom's dramas.

It immediately put her on guard.

"You've probably guessed my identity, right? Really, I never thought I'd make the same mistake as Kaido..."

Su Sheng rubbed his temples, self-deprecatingly.

In his previous life, he had complained that if Kaido had just killed that beast Momonosuke directly at the Fire Festival, instead of just tying him up and saying a bunch of inexplicable nonsense,

he wouldn't have been defeated by the Straw Hat crew with their plot armor.

And his own situation two days ago was somewhat similar.

If he hadn't chosen to save Pear Blossom and this Houndour,

but had thrown them into the sea as Yi Shu suggested,

there wouldn't be so much trouble.

But Su Sheng didn't regret it.

If he were in Kaido's position, he would definitely have killed Momonosuke.

At the very least, he would have stripped him naked and let some of the crew's members with special kinks enjoy him.

As for Pear Blossom... even though Su Sheng didn't know much about her, he couldn't bring himself to do that to an 11-year-old girl.

Hearing Joker's words, Pear Blossom lightly bit her lower lip.

She didn't know who the "Kaido" he was talking about was, but she understood Joker's meaning.

"Do... do you need companions?"

After a brief silence, Pear Blossom asked, her voice trembling slightly.

Of course, she knew what this sentence meant.

But in this world, there was nothing worth her staying for anymore.

Whether it was Aldus, the Elite Four member who killed her Houndour's parents,

or her father, who treated her as a tool to strengthen the family and even pushed her into a desperate situation for that purpose.

All of this filled Pear Blossom with disgust.

Since the light has abandoned me, then I would rather throw myself into darkness.

But Pear Blossom was, after all, only an eleven-year-old child this year.

Abandoning everything she currently possessed and going to an unknown world still made her instinctively feel fear.

Su Sheng's eyes behind the mask flickered briefly.

Wow, I didn't even open my mouth, and you took the initiative to surrender?

"It seems the League didn't do a good job with this girl's psychological work."

Su Sheng muttered to himself.

But this was indeed a great opportunity.

After thinking quickly, Su Sheng decided to take Pear Blossom away first.

If the League sent a mouth-fu expert like Naruto later to persuade Pear Blossom,

then he would have no chance at all.

Thinking of this, Su Sheng bent down and extended his right hand towards Pear Blossom.

Pear Blossom bit her lip tightly, and finally, holding Houndour with her left hand, she offered her right hand.

Whoosh!

The next second, Su Sheng's black windbreaker unfolded into a glider.

This all-black look was more like Batman than Phantom Thief Kid.

Oh, wait, isn't Batman in Paldea?

...

Villa main entrance.

Officer Jenny led her police force to gather here.

"What's going on? Where's Joker?!"

Faced with the captain's question, the officer guarding the gate looked dumbfounded.

"Joker? Captain, what are you talking about? We didn't see him."

Officer Jenny was also dumbfounded when she heard this, "A team member just told me that Joker appeared at the main entrance!"

The guards responsible for guarding the main entrance were even more confused, and after looking at each other, they asked:

"No, we didn't see him..."

"Captain, who was the team member who told you?"

The expression on Officer Jenny's face changed from anxious to confused.

Wait!

Come to think of it, the police officer was wearing his hat very low at the time, and she didn't see his face at all.

And she rushed out impatiently when she heard him say the name "Joker."

She didn't even check his police officer number...

"Damn it! I fell for his diversion!"

Realizing something was wrong, Officer Jenny said, "Everyone, follow me back—"

"Captain! There!"

Officer Jenny didn't even have time to say the last word "go," when a police officer under her pointed to the upper right and shouted.

Everyone turned their heads to look.

They saw in the night sky that the wanted criminal who had turned this place upside down just two days ago was now growing black "wings" and flying over their heads.

In his arms, he was holding a girl.

It was Pear Blossom, who was currently the League's key protection target!

Officer Jenny's face turned extremely ugly.

Sure enough, she fell for it.

"Damn it, don't even think about escaping, Pi—"

Officer Jenny took out a Poké Ball and pressed the center switch button, wanting to call out her other partner besides Growlithe.

However, Officer Jenny pressed it several times, but the Poké Ball in its reduced state did not respond at all.

The Pidgeot inside also looked at its owner with an innocent expression.

"Damn it! That damn machine again!"

Even if she was unwilling in her heart.

At this moment, the Azur Police could only watch helplessly as the other party took away the key protection target that Chairman Damaracchi had ordered.

...

...

Two hours later, seaside cottage.

"You really brought her back..."

Yi Shu, who had returned to join them, saw Pear Blossom cooking for Houndour, and even though he had expected it.

He couldn't help but sigh when he saw a new member in the house.

"But is it okay? A Sheng, you... you even took off your mask?"

Yi Shu noticed another problem.

That was that Su Sheng had taken off his mask, revealing his true face, which was a bit risky, right?

"To be honest, I don't quite trust her. Although she can't compare to a wealthy family like the Yu Long family, her family is also considered a financial group. Is she really willing to give up a life of luxury and follow us?"

Yi Shu, cosplaying as a washing machine, stroked his chin and kept looking at Pear Blossom.

"When you joined, why did I believe you?"

Su Sheng asked back.

Yi Shu felt that Su Sheng could hold this over him for the rest of his life, and said speechlessly:

"Do you call that 'believe'? You were clearly threatening me with that video, okay... Huh?"

Speaking of which, Yi Shu suddenly reacted.

He guessed some of Su Sheng's thoughts.

Su Sheng continued with a smile:

"Only those who have a common secret are considered their own people."

"Today is not yet, but tomorrow, Pear Blossom and us will be our own people."

As he said that, Su Sheng's pupils shifted slightly, glancing at Pear Blossom.

"But isn't tomorrow too soon? It's okay to rest here for a few days to adjust your mentality."

Although she would be one of the Elite Four in the future, she was still only an 11-year-old girl.

She had experienced so many things in just two short days, and Su Sheng didn't plan to push her too hard.

And even if Pear Blossom regretted it, Su Sheng still had a backup plan.

"It's okay."

Pear Blossom placed the nutritious meal mixed with Chansey egg pieces, Slowpoke tail pieces, various berries, and Pokémon food in front of Houndour.

Seeing Houndour eating heartily, Pear Blossom raised her hand to stroke its back, her eyes firm:

"As long as I'm with this child... I have nothing to fear."
