Chapter 8 Shadows
Chapter 8 Shadows
Perhaps ordinary trainers wouldn't be able to tell anything unless they get close to Ghost Sea.
But they are both Heavenly Kings.
Long Cang sensed a special feeling from Gui Hai that only Elite Four trainers possess.
It's a feeling of resonating with the forces of nature, of being in harmony with nature in every gesture.
It is a symbol belonging to the Heavenly King.
Moreover, Long Cang also sensed a shadow on Gui Hai.
The shadow that all living beings can feel is called—death!
Long Cang's eyes flickered.
He then returned to normal and gestured to his men to take over Bagu.
"Grandma, is this your grandson? He looks like he'll be an adult soon."
Long Cang and Granny Gu inquired about Gui Hai's situation.
When the old woman heard Long Cang mention Gui Hai, she knew that Gui Hai's aura couldn't be hidden from the Heavenly King of the Alliance.
However, there's no need to hide this kind of thing.
We should even be proud.
Which of your descendants can be as capable as my grandson?
A seventeen-year-old Elite Four level trainer should be a key figure to be nurtured anywhere.
Therefore, when Granny Gu was asked by Long Cang, her smile became even brighter:
"He just turned 18 today, and I'm giving him a beginner Pokémon. I'm sure his future achievements will be no less than mine."
Long Cang pondered for a moment upon hearing this, and then said:
"Oh, I see. So he probably hasn't registered yet, right?"
Why don't we have him come with me to register with the alliance? That way, I can keep an eye on him on the way.
Moreover, you have made a great contribution this time, and the league will reward you.
"Your own selections are much more to your liking than us distributing them."
Granny Gu understood Long Cang's thoughts and glanced at Gui Hai behind her: "Xiao Hai, what do you think?"
Ghost Sea will hand over Bagu, who is shrouded in his own shadow and has suffered a mental breakdown, to an elite trainer in the League.
They retreated to a distance of two meters behind Granny Gu.
He observed the Elite Four member in front of him and the Salamence beside him.
Upon hearing Granny Gu's question, he replied directly, "Granny, I have no problem."
Granny Gu smiled upon hearing this and looked at Long Cang: "Then I'll have to trouble the Dragon Messenger."
Long Cang looked at the Ghost Sea, whose body was filled with ghost-type energy: "The Alliance will not let you down."
Soon after, law enforcement officers from the nearby coalition arrived.
The handover was very quick.
The Alliance's elites handcuffed the men in black who had been dealt with by Ghost Sea.
Furthermore, the ordinary trainers who had been bewitched by the men in black and were preparing to attack Oni-kai were also escorted out.
The alliance will hold these people accountable.
They didn't have a chance to make a move.
But from the moment they released the Pokémon, they embarked on a different path.
They will then be stripped of their trainer status, and the Tower of the Other Shore will no longer welcome them.
"I didn't intend to attack that kid. I was just trying to defend myself against a terrorist organization. You can't arrest me."
Kid, you can't slander me.
And what right do you have to occupy this tower? What right do you have to refuse our participation in the worship ceremony?
Just as the Alliance law enforcement officers were escorting this person past Gui Hai.
Suddenly someone among these people shouted.
And they wanted to break free from the control of the Alliance law enforcement officers and confront Oni-kai.
The alliance's law enforcement officers immediately increased their force to subdue the man.
To prevent him from inciting others to resist law enforcement.
But this person's voice had already ignited the侥幸心理 (a sense of侥幸, or a belief that one can escape punishment) of these arrested individuals.
One by one, they began to resist, shouting that they were innocent.
They glared angrily at Gui Hai, as if he were the culprit who had led to their arrest.
They completely forgot their greed and were misled, which led to the current situation.
Now all they can think about is: the Tower of the Other Shore was in such chaos back then that the Alliance had no way of proving they intended to attack that kid.
Long Cang frowned as he looked at the chaotic scene, then raised his hand.
The Salamence beside him immediately roared at the enraged trainers.
The dragon's might, under its intimidating properties, silenced these guys instantly, leaving them all trembling with fear.
Once Long Cang had the situation under control, he ordered the alliance's law enforcement officers to take the people away.
It is unclear whether these people have wronged him; further investigation is needed.
Now is the time for handing over criminals, and we absolutely cannot afford any mishaps.
However, Guihai spoke first: "Wait a minute."
Long Cang turned his head and looked over, somewhat puzzled.
Gui Hai said to his own shadow:
"Rotom, make a copy of the surveillance footage from the lobby on the first floor of the Other Shore Tower and hand it over to the Alliance Inspector."
We have records of the behavior of everyone present after I defeated all the terrorists in the Tower of the Other Shore.
It can also prove who is guilty and who is innocent.
As Gui Hai finished speaking, his shadow rolled like flowing water, and a red computer flew out from the shadow.
Rotom saluted Ghostsea with his small hand: "Yes, sir."
Then he flew over to the elite trainer brought by Long Cang and copied the video from the Other Shore Tower to him.
Gui Hai seemed to be explaining to Long Cang, but also seemed to be mocking those troublemakers.
"Although the Tower of the Other Shore looks ancient, the modern technology inside is more advanced than anything you have ever seen."
Before committing another crime, remember to check for CCTV footage.
Those who had been shouting earlier were already pale from being frightened by the Flying Dragon, and now, upon hearing Gui Hai's words, their bodies collapsed.
One by one, they were taken away by the alliance's law enforcement officers, their faces ashen.
Long Cang watched their retreating figures, then expressionlessly instructed the alliance elites beside him:
"You and the team finish up. I'll take Bagu ahead to avoid any unexpected problems."
"Yes, don't worry, you can leave this to us."
Long Cang nodded and looked at Gui Hai: "Xiao Hai, right? Let's go to the League to register your trainer information."
As he spoke, he jumped onto the Salamence with Bagu.
Gui Hai first nodded to Granny Gu.
Then we need to get close to the Salamence and prepare to ride the flying dragon to the Alliance headquarters.
But he had only just gotten close to the Salamence.
The previously silent Salamence suddenly roared and took two steps back, refusing to let Ghost Sea approach.
Long Cang, riding on the back of the Flying Dragon, also felt a jolt and frowned.
"What's going on? Salamence, be quiet."
The Flying Dragon turned around and roared at Long Cang.
Then he looked at Guihai warily, as if he had seen something terrifying, and his muscles tensed up.
Guihai glanced at the distance between himself and the Salamence.
Now I understand why Salamence reacted so strongly.
It must be caused by my own 'shadow'.
Because of this shadow, any human or Pokémon that gets close to it will be shrouded in the shadow of death and instinctively fear itself.
Only Ghost-type Pokémon enjoy this feeling and may even become close to you.
Guihai originally thought that as a Champion-level Pokémon, it wouldn't be intimidated by such a shadow.
In retrospect, he underestimated the threat posed by the shadows surrounding him.
It even made the Heavenly King fearful.
This misjudgment was also related to the fact that he had never interacted with other powerful trainers and Pokémon, thus ignoring this aspect.
However, the question now is how Ghost Sea should join the alliance.
