Pokémon: The Journey Begins with a Cowherd

Chapter 121 The Monkey Monster with the Broken Tail!

"Hoo~ (Hello!)"

After observing from the bushes for a while, Charmeleon decisively stepped out of the bushes and greeted the monkey monster.

Influenced by Qingyuan, Charmeleon and the others have a good impression of those hardworking Pokémon.

"Hoga!"

The monkey monster was startled when it saw the fire dinosaur emerge from the bushes.

After realizing that Charmeleon was greeting it, it replied with a greeting.

"Haga! (Hello!)"

While greeting Charizard, the monkey monster couldn't help but look towards Charizard's tail.

"Hey! (What are you looking at?)"

Noticing the monkey monster's gaze, Charmeleon said somewhat angrily.

This guy keeps staring at its rear end; it has no interest in elves outside its own kind.

What's more, the guy in front of me is male.

"Hoga! (Nothing, just that your tail is really cute!)"

The monkey monster didn't care about the fire dinosaur's angry words.

Instead, it raised its tail at the Charizard and said something.

Seeing the other's tail, which was half broken off, Charmeleon knew what the other was thinking.

However, Charmeleon, who had never experienced anything like this before, was clearly at a loss for what to do.

"Hoga! (It's alright, I don't care anymore!)"

Seeing Charmeleon's conflicted expression, the monkey waved to Charmeleon and said...

Upon hearing this, Charmeleon immediately relaxed.

However, Charmeleon is still too young, if Qingyuan were here.

It must know that the monkey monster doesn't care about its tail as much as it claims.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have paid attention to Charizard's tail the moment it saw it.

"Hey! (What are you doing here all by yourself!)"

Watching the monkey monster throwing punches at the tree on its own, Charmeleon asked with some confusion.

After all, there were several elves playing together in that little pond just now.

But this hardworking guy in front of me is a lone wolf here.

"Hoga! (I've been kicked out!)"

As he spoke, the monkey monster made a cross with his hands and slashed fiercely at the big tree in front of him.

"boom!"

With a loud crash, the large tree in front of them snapped in two.

Charmeleon didn't understand what the monkey monster meant.

However, it became interested in the monkey monster's strength.

"Hmph! (Shall we have a fight?)"

Charmeleon, its face brimming with fighting spirit, spoke to the monkey monster.

"Hoga? (Why?)"

Hearing what the fire dinosaur said, the monkey monster was somewhat puzzled.

In its mind, fighting only occurs when vying for food or competing for status within the group.

Charmeleon wasn't competing with it for food, and the two Pokémon weren't even the same species.

Why did Charmeleon fight it?

"Roar! (Qingyuan once said that if you encounter an unfamiliar but interesting Pokémon, just fight it once!)"

"Roar! (Once you've fought, you'll know each other; that's called 'no fight, no friendship'!)"

The fire dinosaur spoke earnestly to the monkey monster, recounting the fabricated story it had just made up.

Of these words, only the phrase "becoming friends through conflict" was what it heard Qingyuan say.

All the other things were just made up and misinterpreted by the animal itself.

On the other side, Qingyuan sneezed, waking himself up from his sleep.

"What's going on? How could I sneeze while I was sleeping so soundly?"

Qingyuan rubbed his nose and muttered to himself with some confusion.

"Sha! (I don't know!)"

Hearing this, the Scyther next to him shook its head in confusion.

Where's the Charizard?

Qingyuan climbed off the cat boss and looked around, but didn't see the Charizard.

He couldn't help but ask the flying mantis with some doubt.

"Sha (It says it's going out for a stroll!)"

"Sha! (He went that way!)"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the Flying Mantis quickly pointed in a direction and said something.

"Okay, you stay here and watch over them, I'm going to go find the Charizard!"

Qingyuan said something to the Scyther and then walked in the direction the Scyther pointed.

"Shh! (No, we're in the wild, and you're not fully recovered!)"

Upon hearing Qingyuan's words, the Flying Mantis extended its large scythe to block Qingyuan's path and shook its head.

"Oh, it's alright, don't worry about me!"

"Didn't you hear what Slowpoke said? I'm about as good as a level 16 Psychic-type Pokémon now!"

"Don't worry, this is around the main road, there won't be any elves stronger than me here!"

Qingyuan waved to the Flying Mantis and continued walking forward.

"Oh, right, you stay here and watch over them. I'll be right back!"

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Qingyuan turned around and said to the Flying Mantis.

"Sha!"

Upon hearing this, the Scyther, which was about to get up and follow Qingyuan, let out a somewhat embarrassed cry.

Oh no, Qingyuan guessed it.

There was no other way; he was the most reliable child under Qingyuan's command.

The Scyther obediently lay back down.

Seeing this, Qingyuan nodded in satisfaction, then turned and walked in the direction where the Charizard had left.

The forests surrounding the main road are cleaned by Alliance members every week.

Therefore, the strength of elves is generally not strong, and anyone who is prepared can usually defeat these weak elves.

For example, the green caterpillars and such that the boy who was often caught by insects would use a net to catch.

And now that he's awakened superpowers, he's itching to get his hands dirty.

I'd like to try it out myself; could I defeat some Pokémon and experience it for myself?

In short, Qingyuan has gotten too cocky again.

Fortunately, after being tempered by Slowpoke and the others, Scyther is no longer the rigid samurai it once was.

After Qingyuan left, it quickly shook Tianxie awake.

And let it follow Qingyuan, since Qingyuan only wanted it to guard the Slowpokes and the others.

It didn't say it couldn't wake up the scorpion to protect his safety.

Scorpio shook its head, still a little groggy from sleep, and took flight, chasing after Qingyuan in the direction he had left.

Following the trail left by the fire dinosaur, Qingyuan easily arrived at the edge of the pool.

"Roar!"

"Hoga!"

Watching the mosquito coil tadpoles having so much fun in the pond.

Just as Qingyuan was about to sigh at the peaceful life, two angry roars from the side shattered this idyllic moment.

"Roar! (Let me show you my power!)"

Charizard spewed sparks from its nose, said something to the monkey monster, and then unleashed a flamethrower at it.

"Hoga! (Come on, let me see what you've got!)"

In response to Charizard's words, Monkey King spoke with an arrogant expression.

The next second, it rolled away and dodged Charizard's flame-breathing attack.

He then ran quickly to the Charmeleon and kicked it in the leg.

The Charmeleon, unable to dodge in time, was kicked to the ground.

Because when it fell, Charmeleon landed face down, and its nose was at the very front.

So almost instantly, its nose swelled up.

"Hoga Hoga! (Hahaha, Big-nosed Dragon!)"

Upon seeing this, the monkey monster couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Qingyuan, who was hiding in the bushes nearby, almost burst out laughing when he saw this scene.
