Chapter 499 Reggie, the Figure Maker, the Master of Figurines, Chicas
After accepting President Yaji and Cattleya's invitation to Blueberry Academy, Aoba rested for two more days.
After sending Cynthia back to Sinnoh, he finally regained his energy and prepared to resolve the remaining issues in Sector Zero.
The fact that the Sinnoh champion is away from home for an extended period of time can indeed cause some problems.
After all, other regions aren't like Hoenn. Even without Steven, there's Wallace, whose strength is nearly equal, allowing him to live a very comfortable life as the champion.
Wu Song is dedicated, but his skills are still some distance from the champion's level, and there's nothing he can decide on his own.
In the anime's storyline, Rin also considered giving up her champion title for a time, but ultimately did so for various reasons.
After all, with her outstanding achievements preceding them, the Sinnoh Champion title carries too much weight, and indeed no one can take it on.
Being a champion isn't easy!
Qingyu, now all alone, sat at the entrance of the dojo, sighing inwardly.
However, none of this had anything to do with him, the newly crowned king who was preparing to give up.
In short, let's use the Anywhere Door to find the horse—Regickas!
Qingyu stood up, walked into the bedroom, and arrived at the Anywhere Door that the "System" had rewarded her with.
Without this thing, he really couldn't think of any way to get Regigicas to Padia.
Speaking of which, the legendary giants were beings who transported continents to various regions. How did they manage to do that?
Regigigas, like Groudon, doesn't seem to be able to fly. Its flight ability comes from the reaction force generated by slamming its elbow into the ground.
Could it be another expert who travels by water?
Aoba couldn't help but become curious, while also feeling a little regretful that he probably wouldn't be able to see how Regigigas swim.
After all, by the time it crosses the ocean and arrives in Padiya, who knows how much time will have passed, and it's not even certain whether its own people will still be there!
After silently reciting the location of the lowest level of the Snow Peak Temple, Qingyu opened the Anywhere Door.
Sure enough, Regigigas appeared right in front of him.
Just like when it left last time, it remained sitting motionless on the ground, the three-colored dots on its body flashing rhythmically, as if it were still thinking.
It was only then that Qingyu suddenly remembered that, right, after she came over and woke up Regigigas, she immediately asked it a question while it was still confused.
"What is your wish?"
Could it be that this sentence is what has kept Regigigas pondering until now?
It's been almost a month, and I still haven't figured it out.
The slow start feature is terrifying!
"Hey, Regigigas, do you remember me?"
Qingyu then stepped forward without hesitation and shouted loudly at it.
If the voice is too soft, Regigigas might be too focused to hear it.
"Rai--Ji--?"
Suddenly, Regigigas, who had been motionless, made a sound and moved his body forward slightly.
A few seconds later, it noticed the young man standing in front of it.
At the same time, it immediately recognized him as the messenger of Arceus and the culprit who had awakened it.
This has forced it to start thinking, and so far it hasn't been able to figure out what other wishes it has!
But why did it come back so quickly?
"Reggie—!"
Seeing that the three-colored dots on Regigigas's chest suddenly all flashed yellow, and he seemed quite confused, Qingyu slowly said, "If you can't figure it out, why don't you just stop thinking about it?"
"I have a suggestion for you, come with me to a nice place."
"It's a unique underground cave with very special energy, filled with ancient crystals from 200 million years ago."
"I heard from Arceus that you seem to really enjoy finding places like this to handcraft a few statues that resemble yourself?"
"Reggie—?!"
This time, Regigigas, who had been relatively calm, suddenly raised his voice considerably, clearly having been persuaded by Qingyu.
Even their reaction speed is much faster than before.
Is the slow start finally finished stacking?
Qingyu blinked, then suddenly realized another problem: how could Regigigas, which was so big, fit into his Anywhere Door?
It feels like even sticking one foot in is difficult.
However, the problem was quickly resolved by Regigigas himself.
"Reggie—!"
Suddenly, Regigigas roared, and his voice immediately echoed beneath the Snow Peak Temple, causing the ground to tremble.
Qingyu thought it was excited and was about to use its most primitive and ancient mode of transportation to travel to Padiya.
Commonly known as "house demolition"!
However, this was also the primary purpose for which the Snow Peak Temple was built.
Yes, that's right!
This complex, six-story building with its intricate corridors has served only one purpose since its construction.
That was to be used to immediately convey this message to the outside world when Regigigas woke up.
Once the Snow Peak Temple is demolished, the outside world will naturally learn of this information.
It's hard to hold back, but it makes sense when you think about it.
However, Regigigas did not do as Qingyu had expected, directly using Hyper Beam to slam into the ground and take off to travel quickly.
Instead, it raised its arms high, as if doing some kind of stretching exercise.
As it moved, Regigigas's body quickly began to shrink on its own, and the giant, which was originally more than ten meters tall, gradually shrank to only half a person's height.
"Reggie!"
Looking at the Regigigas waving excitedly in front of him, which looked somewhat cute due to its smaller size, Qingyu paused for a moment, then slowly raised his left hand and gave a thumbs up.
Awesome.
Although he knew that most Pokémon would instinctively shrink when in danger, he never imagined that a "legendary Pokémon" of Regigigas's size could freely grow and shrink.
That way, we can pass through any door.
Qingyu nodded, then led the way to the door that had suddenly appeared underground.
He first closed the door, then recalled what the Great Void of Zero looked like in his mind, before suddenly opening the door.
The moment the door opened, the unique, dense, and almost overwhelming energy of the star crystal ore, found a thousand meters underground, rushed towards us.
"Reggie—!"
Regigigas reacted incredibly quickly this time, jogging ahead of Qingyu and squeezing inside.
Sure enough, even the toilet king, who is usually too lazy to move, will inevitably become active when he encounters something he really likes.
Qingyu followed closely behind and then saw Regigigas leap into the crystal layer and then stick his head out.
Even though Regigigas's face was incapable of making any expression, he suddenly felt that he vaguely saw some kind of emotion similar to "happiness".
"Reggie!"
Regigicas seemed very satisfied with the place, even managing to give a thumbs-up with its three-pillared hand.
After that, he stopped caring about Qingyu's existence and began his performance art as if no one else was around.
It quickly restored its body to its normal size, and casually gathered all the star crystal ore on the surrounding walls, piling it around itself.
Then, Regigigas began to think again—
According to Qingyu's guess, this step was probably its attempt to recall what it looked like.
The five known images of the Divine Pillars all originate from Regigigas, and it seems that they were created at different times based on the characteristics of those eras.
In modern times, it seems to have awakened once and created the incredibly fast and completely different Electro God Pillar Reggie.
Now, on a whim, Regigigas seems to be planning to use his traditional craftsmanship to create new divine pillars using these star crystals.
To be fair, compared to other legendary Pokémon that are always making headlines, Regigigas is quite down-to-earth.
A giant who can traverse mountains and fill seas, single-handedly moving the current continental plates, has only one hobby: finding a good place to lie down and start sculpting figurines using whatever materials are available.
No wonder he's the oldest model kit maker in the Pokémon world.
So here's the question: what should we call something made from star crystals?
The Star Pillar?
Qingyu had a guess in her mind.
As for whether more pillars will appear in the future, I have no idea.
Seeing that Regigigas was completely absorbed in thought, he didn't intend to stay there any longer.
"Then I'll be going now!"
After saying goodbye and waving, Qingyu quickly walked through the Anywhere Door and went home.
Having completed Arceus's final task, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At this point, everything regarding Sector Zero and Padia was on track, and all that remained was for the time machine to function and safely bring the exploration team members back.
Apart from the two remaining treasures of calamity that haven't been recovered, he recalled that most of the major events in Padia should have come to an end.
Ancient jade fish and ancient bronze deer—
With my current strength, dealing with them shouldn't be too difficult.
If you seize the right opportunity to take the original body and immediately send it into the system to purify the millennia-old resentment attached to it, you can obtain a treasure from your "hometown".
But this is so troublesome.
Why not send Crimson back to Kanto and Nemo to Blueberry Academy for an exchange before they go there to practice?
The day after Nemo returned from Zone Zero, she had already come to visit, expressing her strong dissatisfaction that "summer vacation is too boring and there's no one to challenge me anymore."
Indeed, this is true. After all, not only do students have their own plans for summer vacation, but even the museum owners, including him, have a rare time to rest.
It should have been a good time for everyone to give up, but Nemo didn't feel comfortable with it.
This will also give her something to do.
Qingyu then left the dojo and headed to Nemo's villa, which was not far away across the street.
He was Nemo's teacher and student, as well as her neighbor. The servants in her house already knew him, so they weren't surprised when he came to visit.
Upon entering Nemo's luxurious villa, Qingyu, who was still in the living room, immediately heard the commotion coming from upstairs.
"I won!"
"Peony, come closer, I'm going to stick a note on you!"
"So—why do we all want to gather at your house to play Pokémon cards?!"
"Because summer vacation is so boring, it's only fun when everyone's together!"
"————"
Qingyu went upstairs and immediately saw a very chaotic scene in the living room.
Nemo was holding Peony, trying to forcefully add another sticker to her face, which was already covered with notes.
Pipa crossed his arms, looking utterly bewildered, as if to say, "Why am I here?"
Peony, naturally, was equally speechless, while desperately resisting Nemo's actions.
Incidentally, all three of them had stickers all over their faces, so they were a little stunned when Qingyu came up.
Only Crimson, who kept her head down and tried to minimize her presence, was spared the attack.
Since all his stickers were on that red and white baseball cap, it seemed that everyone else had already accepted that the cap was the true red color.
"What are you doing?"
Qingyu's untimely voice immediately made all four of them turn around.
"Teacher Aoba!"
Upon discovering that the visitor was Qingyu, the four individuals reacted in completely different, even drastically different, ways.
However, Qingyu didn't seem to care.
After all, we've all been through our student days, so it's nice to have friends to play with.
As long as Nemo catches them, she won't come looking for me for a while.
"I've found you a job. There are two Pokémon that might be a little challenging. Are you interested?"
Qingyu got straight to the point.
"have!"
As expected, Nemo immediately became excited and even threw the stickers in her hand aside.
Although Crimson didn't speak directly, he also stood up and made a gesture of twisting his baseball cap.
The silence speaks.
Papa and Peony also breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Qingyu with gratitude.
With Qingyu's words, at least Nemo should stop dragging them to play that Pokémon card game they can't understand at all for the time being.
Thank you, Brother Qingyu/Teacher Yu!
Nemo and Crimson seem to be growing much faster than Qingyu had imagined.
He originally thought that the Calamity Treasure, which was so difficult to deal with in terms of its mechanism and could not be won through direct combat, would leave them helpless until they gradually adapted and were able to think of a way to break the deadlock.
But they quickly devised a completely new playing style that exceeded Qingyu's expectations—
Since the "Great Catastrophe" of the Disaster Treasure will affect Pokémon, why not just reflect it back?
-
Anyway, the waves it creates are enough to overturn Pokémon, and you're telling me this doesn't cause any damage?
Therefore, when faced with the first calamity-inducing treasure, the ancient jade fish literally died of anger.
Its cause of death was the backlash from the endlessly rebounding resentment, which eventually overwhelmed even its physical form, causing the Pokémon form it had created to immediately dissipate.
As for the ancient dinglu, it's slightly better.
But not many.
This hot-tempered, stubborn fellow was repeatedly pulled and slammed against the protective barrier erected by the Pokémon by the two, as if they were playing bullfighting, and his resentment grew deeper and deeper.
In the end, Qingyu couldn't stand it any longer, so he grabbed the ancient cauldron deer's antlers that had been flung away and performed a "Overlord Lifting the Cauldron" move, finally giving it a good beating.
At this point, Qingyu had collected all four treasures of calamity.
Next, Aoba prepared to head to Blueberry Academy to give the students in the Unova region a good "lesson".
