Chapter 783: Ultimate Aura and Liliae
Tomorrow is the first day of the Pokémon School.
The full-scale celebration will be held at the celebration square in Lili Town tonight.
Teacher Lu returned to his detached villa on the cliff of Karawei Bay in the east and invited Zhulan to accompany him to the town celebration.
Zhulan closed the book and accepted it happily: "Coincidentally, I also have some questions about mythology and would like to ask the elders in the town."
"Is it related to the island god?" In fact, compared with the myths of other regions, Mr. Lu is not very familiar with the Alola mythology.
After all, the plot of Sun and Moon involves the multiverse, other dimensions, and alien beasts. It is more like an Ultraman plot than a Pokémon myth.
Zhulan sat on the sofa, crossing her legs under her black wide-leg pants, her hands on her chin, her gray eyes flashing slightly.
"Technically, it's related to Cosmic Pokémon."
Zhulan glanced at the slightly surprised Teacher Lu and explained, "I found in ancient books that long before the arrival of the Island God, Alola already had records of the Sun God, the Moon God, and the God of Glory."
"These gods brought light to the Alola Island and gave the island a unique aura... Perhaps this aura is the origin of the Z moves." Zhulan said calmly.
Lu Ye: “…”
"Don't look at me like that." Zhulan lowered her head and smiled, "It's just a guess."
Teacher Lu silently gave a thumbs up to Meng Mengda.
Sirona is a mythologist, and this happens to be related to her professional field, so the inference is roughly close.
The four Alola islands are shrouded in a unique aura. This aura comes from the "Great God of Light" Ultimate Necrozma, and the island gods are just his agents.
Therefore, Dr. Kukui's theory that Pokémon absorb the aura of the island to gain Z energy is not wrong.
The so-called 'Z energy' is officially called the "ultimate power", which is similar to the "great power" derived from the Ultimate Titan.
Since the "ultimate power" comes from the universe, its essence is not a waveguide, but an ultimate aura. The essence of the ultimate aura is the "light" emitted by Necrozma.
In the critical moment of the animation "Sun and Moon", Xiaozhi and his friends gathered the "light" of all Alola, restored Necrozma's sanity, transformed into the "Glorious God" Ultimate Necrozma, and dispelled the darkness of Alola.
Afterwards, Ultra Necrozma returned to the Kingdom of Light (×) and Ultra Metropolis (√)
Teacher Lu was in a delicate mood.
This setting is too familiar, alien beasts, light, the Ultimate Defense Force... a definite tribute to Ultraman.
Even Ultimate Necrozma has the shadow of Shining Tiga.
All I can say is that in the Pokémon world, you can not only be a trainer, but you can even transform into light.
There is only one way to awaken Necrozma... that is to make Satoshi into soup! (crossed out) Although the plot of Alola is very childish, Mr. Lu is even more looking forward to it.
What boy doesn't want to be transformed into light? Although the Ultra Beasts are very dangerous, Mr. Lu can get the "Ultra Ancient Giant" Regichikas to help.
You even have the opportunity to ask for help from Zygarde and command Zygarde Gundam Form against the Ghoul King!
"It's on fire." Lu Ye's eyes flickered.
"Speaking of which, about that battle festival." Zhu Lan stared at Lu Ye with her grey eyes and said hesitantly, "You wouldn't...sign up for the competition, would you?"
"Zhulan, you know me."
Lu Ye said seriously: "I am always invited by others, and I never play baby cup."
Zhulan lowered her head and sighed, then chuckled helplessly and said, "Let's go. This is also a valuable learning opportunity for Alola's trainers."
** Melemel Island, Lili Town.
The blue night is as cool as water, and the palm trees are swaying.
The waves of the eastern bay washed the beach, and the bonfire in the celebration square burned vigorously.
The drums were beating "dong dong" and the Alola forms of the Garagaras were dancing around the bonfire, twirling blue flame bone sticks like jugglers waving torches.
The fruits of the trees next to the barn were piled up into a small hill. Pokémon such as the Shaggy Dog, Rock Dog, and Mud Donkey were feasting on the fruits.
The children gathered around the old man Long and laughed. The old man Long smiled kindly and gently, slowly lowered his neck, and nibbled the grass.
The two champions stood outside the town, looking out over it, their eyes reflecting the orange bonfire.
"Old Dragon is a very kind Pokémon who loves playing with children." Zhulan said thoughtfully, "When friendly children encounter bad people or encounter misfortune, they will become very angry."
Lu Ye looked up at the sky.
Then should I stay away from the old man dragon?
The towering coconut trees under the night sky are none other than the necks of the Alola form of the Palm Tree.
The Alola form of the Coconut Tree is 11 meters tall, taller than Onix when it stands upright, and even has dragon attributes... There are more strange dragon Pokémon.
The two champions changed into lighter clothing, Alola shirts and sky blue shirts, and wore brown sunglasses.
As I stopped to observe the local customs, I heard a hearty laugh from behind me, calling out, "Alola!"
Lu Ye turned around and saw Dr. Kukui grinning and waving from afar, followed by a girl in a white sun hat.
"Alola!" is the greeting of Alola. It comes from the Hawaiian greeting 'Aloha', which can be used in almost any occasion, such as good morning, good night, goodbye, etc. 'Aloha' is also a synonym for the state of Hawaii.
"Alola~" Lu Ye smiled, "The battle should not have started yet."
"Haha, of course not. Grandpa Hala has to give a speech before the battle."
Dr. Kukui introduced with a smile: "This is my assistant, her name is Liliae. These two are the champion of Luye and the champion of Sirona. Liliae, you should know something about this."
Lilia took off her white sun hat. Her blonde hair and blue eyes smiled shyly. Her long golden hair swayed slightly. She placed her hands in front of her and bowed.
"Champion Lu Ye, Champion Sirona, it's an honor to meet you two."
"Hello, Liliae." Zhulan said with a faint smile.
Lu Ye nodded slightly and pondered for a moment.
Liliae is a key character in the Sun and Moon plot, and so far, she seems to have not yet encountered Nebula.
It is worth mentioning that Lillie is afraid of Pokémon because of the shadow left by her mother Lusamine. Hatching Ice Vulpix by herself is the turning point for Lillie's transformation.
Although she is afraid of Pokémon, Lillie does a great job as an assistant, thanks to her good upbringing. The Aether Foundation owns more than half of Alola's wealth, and Lillie is the daughter of the Aether Foundation. It is no exaggeration to say that she is a big lady.
"By the way, Liliae." Dr. Kukui said, "Starting tomorrow, Mr. Lu will serve as the principal of the Pokémon School and teach you the basic battle knowledge of trainers."
"You haven't captured any Pokémon yet, but just learn first. It will come in handy one day." Dr. Kukui said with a smile.
"Well..." Liliae raised her head with sparkling green eyes and said seriously, "Champion Lu Ye, I will study hard."
"Just call me Mr. Lu." Lu Ye smiled and said, "I know your brother, Gladion. He is a very talented trainer. You may not be inferior to him."
"Eh?" Liliae exclaimed softly.
Thinking about it this way, the champion mentioned in my brother’s letter should be Mr. Lu...
The group walked towards the festival square, and Dr. Kukui explained the origin of the festival.
"There are no leagues or gyms in Alola. Instead, there is a ritual called the "Island Tour". Challengers need to travel to four islands to challenge dominant Pokémon and team leaders who have passed the tour. The All-Out Celebration in Lili Town is one of the trials of Melemele Island."
Professor Kukui smiled and said, "It is said that the guardian deity Tapu Kokoro is very curious and will watch the celebration and show himself to the challengers he favors."
Lu Ye: "What if I want to meet Tapu Mingming..."
"Ah, then we probably need to celebrate with all our strength to achieve victory." Dr. Kukui nodded.
Lu Ye rubbed his chin.
The aura of a Melemele Island alone is probably not enough for Sylveon to break through.
I'm afraid I'll have to meet the four island gods and challenge the "Island Pilgrimage".
Mr. Lu has no awareness at all.
The others came for the Z Pure Crystal, but Mr. Lu came for the entire Melemele Island! But it was a win-win situation for the Battle Legends to come forward and resolve the potential risks in Alola.
The bonfire was burning, and in the center of the celebration square was a wooden fighting arena divided by white lines. Teacher Lu was very worried about the quality of the venue.
The crowd gradually gathered in the center of the square. Dr. Kukui crossed his arms and said with a smile, "The celebration will begin soon!"
After the mourning and ancestor worship dance ended, a white-haired old man in a yellow shirt came on stage and delivered a harvest speech.
"This is the king of Melemele Island, Hara-senpai," Kukui said. "Alola doesn't have a king, but has an island king instead."
"The guy next to him who looks almost identical is Senior Hala's grandson, named Haou." Kukui folded his arms and smiled, "He is also a challenger for the All-Power Festival."
Lu Ye: “…”
Alola's baby cup... I'm embarrassed to go on stage.
However... Lu Ye looked at the owner of Hala Island on the ring.
The strength of the King of the Island is roughly equivalent to that of the King of the Alliance, so challenging the Island Master still has a certain value.
"During this All-Out Celebration, trainers who are favored by the Island God will receive an extra Z-Grand Combat Crystal!"
Hara laughed and said, "Don't worry about winning or losing, just show off your style and get the attention of the island god!"
"I declare that the full-scale celebration has begun!!"
The first battle begins, with Haou fighting against the shirtless red-haired boy Kachi.
The townspeople were enthusiastic and talked a lot.
"Kachi passed the island trial, mastered Fire Z, and is expected to become a team leader!"
"Hawu is the grandson of the island master of Hala. This is a battle between two strong ones!"
Zhulan went to visit the town's blind grandmother to ask about the legend of the Sun and Moon Altar.
Teacher Lu watched the baby showdown, Feather Owl VS Exploding Flame Turtle Beast, with great interest.
The strength of an Alola team leader is equivalent to that of a gym leader, which is very rare in the Alola region.
Having said that...Alola, which is in the Novice Village difficulty, has various opportunities such as aura and self-created Z, which can improve the strength of the team after daily life. No wonder Alola is known as Xiaozhi's "second home".
The flames blazed with a loud bang, causing the townspeople to cheer. Liliae looked on in dismay.
"Don't you like Pokémon battles?" Lu Ye asked with his head down.
Liliae was startled and said softly: "I think... this will hurt the Pokémon... so..."
It is very similar to what N and I thought at the beginning.
Lu Ye sighed a little and said with a smile: "Kachi and Exploding Tortoise are not afraid of getting hurt, but are enjoying the battle."
"Enjoy... fighting?" Liliae looked puzzled.
"Trainers and Pokémon will become more alike, and the braver the Trainer, the stronger the Pokémon will be."
Lu Ye paused and said, "In short, you don't have to force yourself to fight, but you can try to open your heart to Pokémon."
Liliae lowered her head, recalling the time when she was attacked by Pokémon as a child, and hugged the white sunhat tightly in her arms.
"Don't take it personally, it's just my own words."
Lu Ye smiled, looked at the venue, and said: "I have to go on stage..."
I don’t know if Tapu Kokoro will show up... If he doesn’t show up at the celebration, I can only go to the war ruins and look for Tapu Kokoro myself.
After the battle between Hau and Kachi, the townspeople were noisy.
"What's going on?" Hao asked in surprise, "Grandpa has come to the battlefield in person!"
Kachi looked at the solemn expression of the Hara Island Lord, rubbed his chin, and murmured:
"The King of the Island takes this match very seriously..."
The owner of Hara Island stood on the stage, holding the microphone in his hand, and said in a deep voice: "In the next round, I will personally take the stage to fight against the distinguished guest of Melemele Island..."
"The champion from the Donghuang Alliance." The island master of Hara paused, "Against the legend, Mr. Lu Ye."
The townspeople were talking about it, and Kachi's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Teacher Lu!?"
"Is he famous?" Hao scratched his head. "I've never seen him on Alola posters."
Kachi glared at Haou and said, "That's because Alola is located in a remote area, and news from other alliances rarely reaches us."
"You just need to know that there are only four fighting legends in the current league, and Mr. Lu is one of them!"
"Wow..." Haou gasped. "How should I know? Grandpa wouldn't even give me a Rotom cellphone."
"Neither do I..." Kachi was dejected, shook his head, and shouted, "Stop talking nonsense and pay attention to your surroundings!"
"What?"
"Keep an eye out for the island god!"
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the waves are washing the sea.
A Pokémon with black and yellow stripes, armor on both arms, and a mohawk-like hairstyle was floating above the suspension bridge, overlooking the town.
Lu Ye and the island master of Hala stood on both sides of the wooden arena and nodded in greeting.
"I have been a trainer for decades." Hara said with a smile, "I am lucky to be able to learn from a legend before retiring."
"To be honest," Lu Ye said seriously, "I mainly want Tapu Mingming to show up and discuss something with him."
"Oh?" Hara's eyes flashed with sharpness, and he grinned, "In that case, let's use the battle to attract the attention of the island god!"
Hala threw the Poké Ball.
"Go ahead, you competitive hairy crab!"
Lu Ye decided to train the younger generation of the team during his stay in Alola and threw a dark ball:
"Please, Bankillas!"

Insomnia... I only slept for four hours today, so I'll take a day off. Orz (End of this chapter)
