Greatest Pokémon Trainer

May 23rd.

The discoverer of Mega Evolution, Sect Leader of the Heart Source Style, recipient of the Ron Award, World Champion Fang Yuan, along with his bodyguards Fu Hei and Kong Hai, left Alliance Island.

And on the same day, the three of them secretly arrived at the Azure Island in the Izu Islands of Japan.

Two days later, Fu Hei and Kong Hai also roughly figured out the purpose of Fang Yuan's visit here.

In this vicinity, the only thing that could attract Fang Yuan was Nightmare Island.

Both were aware that Fang Yuan had once visited Japan, with the purpose of seeking out Darkrai on Nightmare Island.

Now, Fang Yuan had chosen to come back, and the two quickly understood the issue at hand.

Although Fang Yuan looked like he did not want to say much, old man Kong Hai still couldn't help but ask casually.

"Does that thing really exist?"

If he remembered correctly, during The Beast War era, several nations had joined together to form an exploration team, yet they found nothing.

After the establishment of the Alliance, various national expedition teams also explored again, still without yielding any results.

So, the presence of Darkrai, the Nightmare God on Nightmare Island, should just be a rumor, right?

In the temporary lodging room on Azure Island, Fang Yuan, who was packing his things, glanced at Master Kong Hai, who was sitting at the table drinking tea and staring with curious eyes, and at Fu Hei, who was leaning against the wall with eyes closed, and nodded, saying:

"Yes, it really 'OnePiece' exists!" Fang Yuan affirmed.

Kong Hai, Fu Hei: ???

"Forget it." Fang Yuan stopped his movements and scratched his head.

Without a clear explanation, he guessed that the two would not be at ease letting him leave alone.

He said, "Alright, I'll lay it out for you, I am indeed going to Nightmare Island to find Darkrai."

"My Dragonite's somnambulism was cured with the help of Darkrai's power."

"Besides, the application of the Power of Dreams involved in Fossil Revival Techniques also has Darkrai's contribution."

"So to say, that island actually harbors the Phantom Elf Darkrai?" Kong Hai put down his teacup and showed a look of surprise.

So many expedition teams had gone to Nightmare Island without finding even a trace of Darkrai, and yet Fang Yuan met it on his first visit?

And it seemed they even had a good relationship.

He looked at Fang Yuan curiously. The chosen one, huh? First Emuritto, then the Prince of the Sea, and now connected to Darkrai - this luck is incomparable.

"The Nightmare God, huh."

Fu Hei opened his eyes; he was more concerned with Darkrai's combat power, as for Fossil Revival Techniques and Nightmare Power, he wasn't very interested.

In any case, this Darkrai managed to elude various nations' exploration teams, so it should have Guardian God-Level strength, right?

Really want to fight...

"So, what's your purpose in coming here?" Fu Hei asked.

"Nothing much, it did me a big favor, and to fulfill a previous promise as well as to thank it, I'm going to deliver some special Energy Blocks," Fang Yuan smiled and said, "You're at ease now, right? Besides, Darkrai doesn't like being disturbed by strangers, so I'll go there by myself later."

"I'm very familiar with the way, and I'll be back as soon as possible."

Kong Hai and Fu Hei glanced at each other with mutual understanding.

"Can't we go?"

"The situation is complicated, and please also keep the information about this Darkrai to yourselves," Fang Yuan couldn't guarantee what Darkrai might do if he brought outsiders with him.

After all, this Darkrai had always disliked contact with strangers.

If they made Darkrai unhappy... it would ruin everything.

Kong Hai, Fu Hei were silent.

They really wanted to see the Nightmare God too!!

"Alright."

After a moment of thought, the two nodded; indeed, involving a Phantom Elf, they couldn't just act carelessly.

Although they wanted to refuse to let Fang Yuan go alone, seeing that he had made up his mind, they didn't say anything more.

Fang Yuan was a Nearly-Top Level Trainer now, capable of standing on his own, and didn't need to be overly protected.

"Then come back as soon as possible, we'll wait for you on the island, and don't cause any unnecessary trouble; after all, this is a foreign land, not home," Kong Hai said.

"Roger that."

Fang Yuan nodded, then called out to the Eevee on the sofa, telling it to get ready and to stop playing.

"Bwoo..." Hearing Fang Yuan's call, Eevee threw the phone back into the backpack with Confusion, and then ran over, jumping onto Fang Yuan's shoulder.

Throughout this process, Eevee gave Fu Hei a strange look.

Fu Hei: ?

"Speaking of which..." Fu Hei looked at the Eevee on Fang Yuan's shoulder and said, "your Eevee has been giving me weirder and weirder looks these past two days."

"Is there something on my face?"

"Bwoo!!" Eevee on Fang Yuan's shoulder was taken aback and immediately denied any responsibility.

Fang Yuan was also stunned, then pondered and said, "It might be because of your title, Mr. Fuhai, Eevee has complained to me about it."

Title?

Fuhai and Kong Hai showed puzzled expressions.

The title of War God?

Fuhai had been hailed as the War God of Hua Nation due to winning the individual championship in a world competition. Years after returning to his country, his reputation soared even more because of his challenges against top-tier fighters, firmly establishing the name of War God.

So, what's the problem with this title?

Fang Yuan explained, "The main thing is that these past few days some ridiculous War God ads have popped up on messaging app friend circles..."

Eevee nodded repeatedly.

"Ads like 'The War God returns home to find his five-year-old daughter living in a doghouse, in a fit of rage, leads a hundred thousand Secret Realm Sprites to war,' and 'War God forced into divorce, tycoons from around the world immediately send their daughters to propose, leaving the ex-wife dumbfounded!' There are too many ads like these."

"Bwoo!!" Eevee nodded again, expressing exactly that. It had thought this title was quite prestigious, but after seeing a bunch of reading ads over the past few days, it started to feel something was off about Fuhai.

War God, what a disaster.

"..." Kong Hai, Fuhai.

At this moment, Fuhai was covered in cold sweat. What's all this about, and is it too late to change the title now?

.........

On Azure Island of the Izu Islands.

Kong Hai and Fuhai settled down as ordinary tourists for a while.

Meanwhile, Fang Yuan was already eager to set off, preparing to head to Nightmare Island.

"It's decided, it's you, Dragonite."

When he arrived at a secluded spot on the island, Fang Yuan immediately released Dragonite.

Whoosh~~

After coming out of the Poké Ball, Dragonite was also impatient, flapping its tiny wings and blowing air through its nose forcefully.

It owed its mastery of Nightmare Mode to Darkrai's significant contribution, and now that they were going to meet Darkrai, Dragonite was quite excited.

"Let's go."

Fang Yuan leaped up, with Eevee on his shoulder, and grasped Dragonite's shoulders.

The next moment, Dragonite took off.

This time, leaving from Azure Island, Fang Yuan only called for Dragonite, with Eevee by his side.

The first time he came, he needed Self-detonating Magnetic Monster, Milotic, and Rotom to escort him because he was unfamiliar with the route.

Now, there's no need for such fancy arrangements. After all, Dragonite is almost at the top-tier domain champion of the skies. As the embodiment of the sea, crossing the Chaotic Sea Area is a breeze.

"Whoosh~~~~" Flying over the sea, Dragonite kept picking up speed, with only one destination in mind: Nightmare Island.

About two hours later, Fang Yuan and the others finally neared Nightmare Island.

As they approached Nightmare Island, Fang Yuan's mood started to tense up.

Although he had told Kong Hai and Fuhai that he only came to fulfill a promise, Fang Yuan had another idea in mind: to take Darkrai away from Nightmare Island with him.

However, since this matter was uncertain and difficult to explain, there was no need to go into detail with them and raise their hopes too high, leading to anxiety.

After all, Fang Yuan wasn't very confident about persuading Darkrai to leave with him.

"Whoosh!!!!" With one final burst of speed, Dragonite easily carried Fang Yuan and the others onto the island.

After landing, Fang Yuan took a deep breath as he felt the powerful nightmare fluctuations invade and assault his spirit, smiled, and thought to himself how familiar this nightmare wave was, suggesting Darkrai was in good shape.

"You've worked hard." After jumping down from Dragonite, Fang Yuan said, and at that moment, Eevee also hopped down from his shoulder to survey the island.

While Eevee scouted the surroundings, Fang Yuan's mind became active.

Once he finished the matters at hand, it would be around June or July, right? Close to the New Trainer Day in Hua Nation, his dear apprentice would almost be ready to become a New Trainer. By that time, he would need to take Xiao Mai to get a Beginner Pokemon from the Prince of the Sea.

And along the way... maybe he could leech off the Prince of the Sea's Legends Resources for Milotic and Dragonite to break through to the top-tier domain.

At the moment, among his six main forces, only these two hadn't entered the top-tier domain yet. He couldn't lag behind.

.........

Meanwhile.

Due to Fang Yuan's arrival on the island, at a location on Nightmare Island, in a pitch-black rocky cave, two blue lights flashed by quickly.

Accompanied by a Multi-Spined Flower Stone Beast, a Scyther, a Cradily, an Ancient Armor, and a Carracosta, the blue-eyed owner, Darkrai, slowly revealed his figure in the cave.

Through the changes in the Nightmare Realm of the island, Darkrai was aware that the human had returned.

Even now, the underground cavern of Nightmare Island was still filled with countless Fossil Pokemon, and the Fossil Pokemon following Darkrai were revived by Fang Yuan using the Fossil Resuscitation Device on the island back then.

At that time, those revived Pokemon were in their initial stages, but for some reason, they had now all evolved to their final forms.

Shortly after, accompanied by the five Fossil Pokemon, Darkrai, like a Dark Monarch, began to float upwards, appearing in the sky, locking gazes with Fang Yuan and the others who had rushed over.

"You've gotten stronger..." In the sky, Darkrai didn't speak out loud, but a voice as deep as if it came from the abyss sounded in Fang Yuan's mind. Fang Yuan knew that this was Darkrai's Heart Electricity Induction, just like when Di Anxi spoke before.

"Yeah."

Fang Yuan smiled, noting that the previously reticent and silent Darkrai was now willing to communicate. It seemed the revival of these five Pokemon had quite an influence on Darkrai.
