Chapter 185 Sudden Conditions

...

Two days later.

"Have you heard? The Horsea was attacked by pirates a few days ago."

"I read the news, it's one of the pirates' five-star horror star 'Terror Jack', it is said that although all the passengers on the ship survived, the Pokémon of the overwhelming majority were taken away, and many people were also scared into a trance."

"That's not true. , as soon as this news came out, my heart was suspended."

"Aiya, this is the 'Saint Annus', which pirate gang would dare to take against the 'Saint Annus' 'Go ahead, there are more than 200 sailors on this cruise ship alone. Not to mention that the captain, chief mate, and bosun are all famous trainers for a long time, so be careful."

"That's what I said, but mainly....."

Natsu, who was sitting in the dining room eating lunch silently, listened to the conversations of the people around him at the dinner table.

The Horsea was attacked. After two days of fermentation, it more or less affected the passengers on board and cast a haze on their hearts.

"Togepi, are you almost there?" Natsu asked.

"Just yeh!"

Togepi nods, holding an ice cream in one hand and a sausage in the other.

I don't know how the two foods are mixed together, how can it be delicious.

Pick it up with a bag in your hand and go back and give it to all the Pokémon.

Go out of the restaurant.

Enter the largest lobby of the entire cruise ship.

It was full of people.

Shouts and shouts come and go.

Because there is a Pokémon battle going on on the battle ground in the center of the hall.

This time is different from the previous battle on the deck. This is a small-cup like competition held by several stateroom passengers and the San Anus. The winner can get some corresponding rewards and remuneration.

Of course, there are consolation prizes for losers too.

Such a cup competition is also an unwritten rule on the San Anus.

Showing a few rich businessmen in the stateroom to gain fame, rewarding the passengers who participated in the game, and giving the passengers watching the game more "exciting" items to kill time.

It's a lot of work.

When the San Anus set sail, registrations for the competition began, and there was a ship-wide broadcast.

Natsu was still a little interested, but when he saw the reward, he lost most of his interest. Fortunately, he didn't participate at all.

Gwen, who lives next door to him, did participate, and seemed to be one of several Seeded Contestants in this competition.

Natsu felt a little strange as he walked through the hall and was about to go upstairs at the corner.

The footsteps paused slightly.

Stopped turning and strode moved towards the deck.

As the crowd dwindled, the feeling of being followed became more and more apparent.

Go out of the lobby.

The salty cool sea breeze assaults the senses.

Although it was winter, because the ship sailed southward, the weather in the past few days of the weapon was exceptionally clear, but there was not much coolness.

When Natsu came to the deck, he saw several people standing on the deck.

For example, there was a young couple standing on the bow of the boat facing the sea breeze, and a large area of ​​dog food came to cover.

Another example is an old man in a wheelchair, pushed by a servant-like waiter, approaching the railing.

Another example is the woman who is easy to imagine just by looking at the back, holding the railing with her hands, looking at the plane in the distance, watching the fish or Pokémon constantly jumping out of the water on the sea.

After Natsu walked out of the hall, he turned a corner and silently leaned against the wall.

'Such a superficial tracking ability'

Just when he calculated the time and slammed into the door, he was stunned for a moment.

Because what was in front of him at this time was a cute little girl.

"Miu?" Natsu frowned, moved over her small body, and looked all around behind her, but saw nothing suspicious.

So. is this little girl following you?

Natsu can't help laughing at his over-cautiousness.

Miu was also startled by the sudden appearance of Natsu, and stood there for a long time before she timidly said: "Uncle, I...."

For Natsu, it seems a little scared, but the little eyes still look towards Togepi in Natsu's arms from time to time.

Clap.

The palm lightly rested on Miu's head, "Don't call uncle, just call brother."

Miu bit her lip, and the little crystals twirled in her eyes.

Seeing her about to cry, Natsu felt nod in pain.

Silently sighed.

"Go to your grandfather, don't run around alone."

Leave a sentence, go to the deck against the sea breeze, and approach the railing.

Get away.

Those who didn't know thought he was bullying a little girl.

Looking at Natsu's back, who left in a hurry, and Togepi, who waved her hand on Natsu's shoulder with his head held high.

Miu immediately put away the tears in her eyes, sucked in her red little nose, and smiled.

After a little hesitation, I walked towards the direction of moved towards Natsu.

"Uncle, Big Brother, Big Brother." Miu's little hand leaned on the railing, looking at the fine waves like scales of the sea, she cried crisply.

Togepi greets her from the railing.

"Just ya-"

Seeing that Togepi didn't reject her, Miu's smile got even bigger.

"Togepi!"

Standing on tiptoe, extend the hand, after several efforts, finally reached Togepi's little hand.

Silver bells of laughter spread throughout the deck.

"How did you recognize Togepi, Miu?" Natsu asked, seeing her recover.

Miu was a little less afraid of him after what happened just now.

But when I heard Natsu's question, the originally pure and bright eyes became a little dim, and said weakly:

"Miu's father, used to have a Togepi, and often played with Miu."

Looking at her expression and tone, Natsu probably guessed what happened to her father.

It is very likely already not in.

Natsu understood her stubbornness towards Togepi.

The love of Togepi actually comes from the love of the father, and the persistence of Togepi is also the memory of the father.

"Where is Miu going this time?"

" Go to mother! grandfather said, mother is far away, this time I will definitely bring Miu to find mother! grandfather also said, mother is a very difficult Trainer to deal with!" He became a little excited again.

This little girl may not even know who her mother is?

But at least she has a grandfather who can take care of her, or someone who is a grandfather.

"Miu! Miu!"

Soon, the old man in the brown sweater shouted anxiously on the deck.

"grandfather, Miu is here!" Miu blushed, moved towards the old man and waved his hand.

Seeing Miu who was playing with Togepi, and Natsu leaning against the railing with his back to him, the old man let out a long sigh, his expression tightened, and strode moved towards them.

And after he walked out of the hall door.

Before leaning on the railing on the other side of the deck, the curvaceous black woman with the lace and hollow lace sun hat, twisted her waist and slowly walked into the hall.

Red lips smeared with a thick layer of lipstick, grinning.

"Miu, grandfather told you many times, don't go anywhere...."

bang!

Suddenly.

A huge splash of water from the sea of ​​Undella.

The sea water is a bit gorgeous under the sunlight, and scattered spots sprinkled on the deck.

Natsu face changed, interrupting the old man, and took Miu's hand and strode back.

At the same time, immediately throw the Poké Ball from the waist.

"Beer!"
