Chapter 862: The Four Island Kings!_1

Fang Yuan arrived at the Many Island Secret Realm half a month ago, and although he had completed all the basic cultivation, he had no plans to leave yet.

After all, his Z-Move thesis was not finished, and he needed to continue refining it here.

Moreover, Fang Yuan also wanted to wait until the Guardian Gods fully confirmed the four spokespersons, eager to see who these powerhouses were.

As trainers chosen by the Legendary Pokémon, everyone was bound to interact in the future; getting acquainted was beneficial.

At this moment.

Fang Yuan had moved from an unnamed island to a remote little one managed by Tapu Fini.

Shrouded in sea fog, outsiders could hardly come in, making training here free from external disturbances.

Fang Yuan hadn't seen the Island Protectors for three or four days and guessed that the Guardian Gods were probably busy training their own spokespersons.

In comparison, Fang Yuan wouldn't need the Guardian Gods unless he was developing new exclusive Z-Moves.

...

Many Island Secret Realm, one of the four major islands.

Melemele Island, a wilderness graveyard area.

Shang Ren, dressed in adventure gear, assisted his ace Tyranitar in successfully using the Rock-type Z-Move Earth-shattering Gigalith Fall to summon a massive rock over ten meters in diameter, easily defeating a top-level Third Phase Raven Boss.

This feat excited Shang Ren immensely...

The strength of this Raven Boss definitely surpassed the aces of Jiang Li and Su Shu, and even the Volcarona of Fire God Gura was only so-so in comparison.

Yet, he had defeated the opponent with ease!!

Ha ha!

So this was the strength that Tapu Koko had given him.

After three days of effort, enduring the embarrassment to learn the prayer actions and achieving the unity of "Soul," "Spirit," and "Strength," Shang Ren finally mastered the move.

Such a powerful rock move, although it drained both his and Tyranitar's Physical Strength in an instant, was extremely satisfying in its effects.

Shang Ren felt that with this move, even if his opponents were Jiang Li, Su Shu, Yun Kai, Xu Haoran and others, he would not lose in a one-on-one fight.

Though he was still somewhat no match for Fang Yuan, this was a good start.

This move had suddenly closed the gap between him and Fang Yuan, soaring high!~

"Tapu~~!!"

At the same time, after Shang Ren passed Tapu Koko's test to "grasp the Z-Move quickly and defeat the Raven Boss with a Z-Move," Tapu Koko immediately appeared.

It had been secretly observing Shang Ren all along.

Although this young man was far behind Fang Yuan, Tapu Koko could sense Shang Ren's determination to grow stronger.

With this heart for growth, it could plan the course for Shang Ren's development, and he would certainly take the role of Island King seriously in order to become stronger.

Tapu Koko preferred to nurture strength patiently rather than directly seeking the powerful...

Plus, with Shang Ren's decent performance in the Many Island Secret Realm and the recognition of many Wild Pokémon, Tapu Koko chose him to be its spokesperson and the Island King of Melemele Island.

"Tapu Koko?"

Seeing Tapu Koko appear in the sky and having defeated the Raven Boss, Shang Ren immediately showed an expression of joy.

"Tapu!! (From today onwards, you are the Island King of Melemele Island. You need to arrive at the Misty Island by tomorrow, where someone will teach you how to fulfill the responsibilities of an Island King.)"

"Alright, I understand."

After receiving the message through Mind Induction, Shang Ren didn't hesitate.

What he wanted to do the most wasn't to go to Misty Island but to find Fang Yuan and show off his incredible encounter to him. Well, no hurry.

......

By now, most trainers entering the Secret Realm already knew about the possible existence of Legendary Pokémon.

It wasn't because the materials Fang Yuan revealed to the China Trainer Association had leaked; rather, scholars had confirmed the existence of the four major islands of the Many Island Secret Realm, which were the habitats of the Island Guardian Tapu Family, through the literature of ancient ruins.

Thus, just a week after the Secret Realm appeared, trainers from various countries started to explore the Secret Realm with the same cautious reverence as the China Trainer Association.

Akala Island, under the shade of the forest.

This was Tapu Lele's territory.

Here, a beautiful woman with a golden yellow ponytail was commanding a special form of Leiqiu in battle.

Regional variant Leiqiu was different from the common ones, being both Psychic and Electric types. In addition to lightning power, it also had strong spiritual powers.

With its mental power, it could use its tail as a surfboard to float in the air and fight.

"Psychic Z Moves, Supreme Psychic Destruction Wave?"

Under the guidance of Tapu Lele, with the help of the Z-Ring and the Psychic Z Pure Crystal, Lusamine managed to defeat the Overlord Spirit, Orchid Mantises, with a Z-Move, which left her with a puzzled expression.

She is the daughter of Mrs. Lusamine, the president of the Nature Foundation, and is 20 years old. As a Psychic, she possessed master-level combat power at this young age. She had come to explore the Many Island Secret Realm with the foundation's team.

However, she had not expected that while helping a wounded Pokémon, Tapu Lele would suddenly appear, bestow a special artifact upon her, and invite her to participate in the trials to become the Queen of the Islands.

Now, having passed the trial, she felt a deep curiosity about the Z-Move.

The Nature Foundation is an organization that works globally to protect wild Pokémon injured by disasters. It is also dedicated to reaching agreements with intelligent wild Pokémon for peaceful coexistence, a unique organization with charitable goals, with branches in most countries around the world, and with immense influence.

Originally, Mrs. Lusamine, who founded the Nature Foundation, could even watch the World Tournament as a special guest along with Antonio, the Honorary President of the Alliance.

As Lusamine's daughter, Lusamine had naturally paid attention to that World Tournament. Without a doubt, the tournament that Fang Yuan participated in was the most highly skilled one in recent decades. The appearance of Mega Evolution directly influenced the world scene.

Fang Yuan himself also received much attention because of this.

Lusamine had watched Fang Yuan's battles more than once, so this time, with the help of Tapu Lele, she had completed her Z-Move training… After using the Psychic Z Move, Lusamine was completely dumbfounded.

Because the move she used was so similar to the special move that Fang Yuan had used to instantly defeat the Phantom Pokémon Di Anxi in the final of the World Tournament using Aura…

"An illusion?"

It must have been her own illusion... After all, the Many Island Secret Realm had not even descended at that time.

"Na Nei~~ (Congratulations~~)"

Without letting Lusamine dwell on her doubts, Tapu Lele appeared in front of her and appointed her as the Queen of Akala Island.

Then, just like Tapu Koko, Tapu Lele gave Lusamine guidance, instructing her to head to Misty Island.

......

Ula'ula Island.

The domain of Island Guardian, Tapu Bulu.

An uncle, who seemed much older than Shang Ren and Lusamine by an unknown number of years, was also undertaking the Island King trial.

Atop the icy peak of Mount Lanakila.

Mora, along with his partner, Fire God Gura, was engaged in a very challenging battle.

Their opponent was an Absol that had been trained to its Species Limit, with power at the top level fourth phase, and having a Dominant Field.

The trial given by Tapu Bulu to this uncle was obviously very strict.

But the uncle was not simple either; he was a retired international detective who had been a high-ranking official within Interpol. Disheartened and ostracized due to dissatisfaction with the dark aspects within the organization, he left.

He himself was also a seasoned top-level fighter. Aside from his ace, Fire God Gura, with top limit combat power, he had two other companions of top limit combat power as well.

Because of his strength, after teaching him the Z-Move, Tapu Bulu found him a rather challenging opponent.

This uncle with a strong sense of justice suited Tapu Bulu's taste very well. Although a bit old, at least he had formed his combat power, so there wasn't much need for Tapu Bulu to intervene in his growth.

"I hope that after becoming the Island King, I will have the opportunity to change the world," he thought.

In the end, relying on the "Fighting Type Z-Move Full Force Unmatched Fist," Mora successfully defeated Absol, inducing Tapu Bulu to appear amid his sighs.

He, too, was directed by Tapu Bulu to head to Misty Island to learn more about the duties of an Island King.

...

Poni Island.

The person chosen by Poni Island's Guardian Deity, Tapu Fini, was a woman dressed in a black battle uniform, appearing quite indifferent.

Even Tapu Fini had to admit that she was an incredible human fighter.

If we don't consider Fang Yuan, who had Darkrai and Victini, among all the Trainers in the Many Island Secret Realm, this woman was probably the strongest.

Although this person had a relatively closed heart, her bond with Pokémon was very deep, possessing a natural constitution that garnered favor from wild Pokémon. So in the end, Tapu Fini chose such a powerful woman to be its spokesperson.

"Da Ti~~ (From today onwards, you are the Queen of Poni Island.)"

"Thank you." Muye Liuji looked at Tapu Fini. Beside her stood a Pidgeot of approximately ten meters, with its Species Limit Battle Power. Its size was more terrifying than that of an Overlord Spirit.

It was with this Pidgeot, coupled with a Flying-type Z Move, that Muye Liuji easily defeated the Overlord Kommo-o.

If Fang Yuan, Shang Ren, and the others were here, they would definitely recognize this woman. She was the main referee in the World Tournament where Fang Yuan participated.

As the individual runner-up of a World Tournament, though not old, Muye Liuji's strength was remarkably outstanding, already standing at the forefront in Japan. After all, Fu Hei, who was the individual champion from her tournament, had already become the number two in China. Although she was slightly less powerful than Fu Hei, her true strength was also counted among the top-tier Trainers.

However, Muye Liuji was not satisfied with this. She sought to pursue higher realms, and it was precisely for this that she had come to the Many Island Secret Realm in search of traces of legends.

But Muye Liuji had never expected she would indeed meet Legendary Pokémon, gain their recognition, and be invited to become the Queen of the Island. Although becoming the Queen of the Island required her to fulfill her duties, staying here to cultivate rigorously for a long time, she wouldn't mind as long as it meant getting stronger.

Moreover, this duty was mostly about dealing with disasters, so Muye Liuji was even less averse to it.

Next, like the other three, Muye Liuji also received guidance from Tapu Fini to head to Misty Island!!
