Golduck was very satisfied with the result of his action.
Ash's original instructions and arrangements were to chisel open the bottom of the boat and let it sink.
Then observe and if the pirates on the ship try to escape, just trap them.
Doing this can be said to be quite stable and safe.
But for the smart and wise Golduck, he really wants to show off and get praise from Ash and Officer Jenny...
Well, mainly to get Officer Jenny's praise.
That's when a lot of new ideas were born.
After piercing the boat, Golduck did not wait quietly beneath the water.
Instead, he relied on his Psychic to sense the movements on the deck.
Then this perception made Golduck realize that there were only two noteworthy humans on this pirate ship.
It's the captain, and his little brothers who are constantly directing and giving orders.
If it's just two of us...
Golduck looked at the Tentacruel that had been released earlier on the sea in the distance.
And the sailboat standing alone on the sea...
Immediately, it began to act according to its new idea.
First, the ship was sunk, and then the entire nearby ice surface was frozen, making it impossible for the ship and the people on board to escape.
Then, it climbed onto the ship in two steps and started the operation directly.
As for the results, it is very ideal and effective at the moment.
At least, Ash from a distance was watching the Tentacruel group suddenly start to panic and seemed to have completely lost their command...
"It looks like everything is going well over there at Golduck."
Ash smiled and called Officer Jenny behind him to come forward.
Although Golduck didn't do what he said, the result was better than he had imagined at the beginning.
Ash does not reject these Pokémon with strong subjective initiative. They are all living beings with their own thoughts.
They are also allowed to make changes the way they want.
But the premise is that the effect cannot be far from what you initially required, and it must be based on achieving the goal.
02If some Pokémon forget this most basic point~
Then Ash didn't mind letting them recall it.
Ash's Golduck is obviously very proactive and smart.
Smart Golduck knows what to do to satisfy his Trainer.
At least, as far as the current results are concerned, Ash is indeed quite satisfied.
"I, Jenny, now declare you to be arrested for various crimes including poaching and intentional injury!"
"When the time comes, you can just wait for the punishment of the law!"
Officer Jenny righteously handcuffed the two main members of the poaching gang with silver handcuffs.
Well, it's just that those two people can't hear it for the time being.
Debo and Clam were in a daze, and before they could even get into the chaotic contest condition, they were sent to the capture boat by Officer Jenny.
Even the group of Tentacruel was checked by Officer Jenny and no other problems were found.
Then they were released directly.
Suddenly, the group was surrounded by only one Dewgong, and the trembling Tentacruel retreated in a hurry.
In the blink of an eye, the entire Tentacruel tribe disappeared in the vast ocean.
"Thank you very much, Dewgong."
Ash smiled and thanked the old acquaintance Dewgong, and then looked behind him, at the figure floating on the sea standing on Cloyster.
"I didn't expect that Officer Jenny would specially invite you to come here..."
Ash looked at the mature and charming figure with flaming red hair, "Master Lorelei~"
"Don't say that…"
Lorelei, one of the Kanto Region Elite Four, stroked her flowing hair.
"You don't have to thank me specially. I specifically asked Officer Jenny to inform me immediately if she found anything about the poaching group...
Lorelei also smiled and said, "After all, I can't just sit there and watch these bad guys trying to capture Lapras.
Well, Lorelei herself also has a Lapras.
And it just so happened that this stretch of sea was not far from the Little Orange Island where Lorelei lived.
She was also able to arrive in time, and became a sufficient source of strength for Officer Jenny.
Look, one of her Dewgongs surrounded the group of Tentacruel, scaring them so much that they dared not move.
As for the group of Lapras that were attacked.
"Hmm!"
Lorelei's Lapras was communicating with the group of Lapras.
Although Lorelei's Lapras also follows humans, in the eyes of the Lapras tribe, he also belongs to the human camp.
18.208...
As the main Pokémon of the Elite Four, Lorelei's Lapras is quite powerful.
At least, it has the power to make the group of Lapras in front of it stay where they are and listen to what it says.
After all, they are all Lapras, and the communication within their own group is much better than the intervention of other Pokémon and humans.
"Mmmmm! Mmmmm!!"
Ash's Lapras finally got his wish and took the opportunity to join the group.
The two of them huddled together with the indigo Lapras, snuggling and licking each other's skin.
Tears were flowing in both of Lapras' eyes.
Obviously, the indigo Lapras is the mother of Ash Lapras.
Ash's Lapras was finally reunited with his family.
"What do you think of Pokémon like Lapras?"
Lorelei, who was watching this scene from a distance, suddenly spoke up and asked Ash who was sitting on Blastoise's back.
Well, Lapras went to meet his own tribe's parents, and Ash and the others sat on the back of the exchanged Blastoise.
"It has a gentle temperament and is very suitable as a means of transportation..."
Without thinking, Ash said some general introduction about Lapras.
"So, how do you think we should arrange this group of Lapras?"
Lorelei seemed to have the urge to test Ash and asked with great interest.
"If there are passionate Trainers who care deeply about the Lapras group, they will most likely release their Lapras and let it protect and lead the group so that they can live a peaceful life in the ocean..."
Ash paused for a moment, then smiled and said under Lorelei's increasingly interested gaze:
"But obviously, compared to this group of wild Lapras, I think my own Lapras is more important."
"I don't have any intention of releasing it at all~~~"
"X10S..."
Lorelei held her chin with her slender, white hand, and a smile appeared on her delicate face:
"So what do you think of them?"
The chin was also raised towards the Lapras group: "You know, your Lapras is still a child, but he is very reluctant to leave his parents."
"Even if I finally make up my mind to be with you, it means cutting off contact with my parents."
"In the future, it will become a heavy regret and worry..."
"I know."
Ash nodded gently: "So, I also found a suitable place for this group of Lapras~~~"
He smiled, took out the Rotom Pokédex, clicked a few times, and then handed it to Lorelei to see.
Lorelei's body also subconsciously moved closer, and the pleasant scent of the mature perfume kept entering Ash's nose.
The loose hair gently touched Ash's face, making him feel a little itchy.
"X1E..."
Lorelei looked at the message, and then a hint of surprise flashed across her beautiful eyes:
"Announcement of the Lapras water transport industry in the Alola Region?"
In the Alola Region, there are basically connections between islands.
This has led to the development of their water transport industry to be very mature.
People like Lapras, who are gentle in temperament and specialize in carrying Pokémon, are in great demand there.
"And the climate in the Alola Region is very suitable for the survival of sea Pokémon like Lapras."
"It's a very good choice for them.
This was Ash's response to Lorelei.
Well, she understands the reason, and this is indeed a good solution.
But the question is, how to send this group of Lapras to the Alola Region?
Moreover, it is not certain that this group of Lapras will listen to Ash and really go to that region.
"Regarding this point, I have always believed that professional matters should be left to professionals."
Ash smiled and said, "I have already spoken to Professor Oak on the phone, and he is willing to help me contact someone in Alola.
"If my estimate is correct..."
Ash looked up and saw a ferry with a distinctive tropical style in the distance, slowly approaching this side.
"They should have arrived by now."
People in the Alola Region have a lot of experience in how to communicate with Pokémon in the ocean.
After the ferry arrived, the visitor immediately released his Lapras and boarded it to join the Lapras group.
The group of Lapras were quite agitated when they saw humans approaching.
But under the suppression of Lorelei's Lapras, he had no choice but to stay here obediently.
After the people from Alola Region arrived, they had a good exchange of words with this group of Lapras.
Then, no one knew what method he used, but he made all the Lapras people settle down and behave themselves.
"You must be Mr. Ash, you are really young and promising!!"
On the Alola Region ferry, a middle-aged man wearing a captain's hat also walked out and shook hands with Ash with a smile.
Several people also came to the deck and met together.
"I am the captain of this ship, Canales, and I am also the person in charge of the Kanto Region Orange Islands of the Alola Water Transport Company."
Captain Canales introduced enthusiastically: "I received a notice from the company and learned that Mr. Ash provided us with ten batches of such good Lapras.
"Of course, our company is a serious one, and we will definitely take the safety of Pokémon as the basic guarantee."
"Please rest assured, Mr. Ash, we will not let you down...
Captain Canales was very talkative and talked a lot.
But thanks to this, Ash also knew
Their business here.
Well, mainly in the Alola Region and here in the Orange Islands, doing maritime transport related work.
It would be a piece of cake to safely escort a group of Lapras here to the Alola Region.
Once this group of Lapras is sent to the Alola Region, there will naturally be corresponding personnel to receive them.
With Professor Oak's network of connections, it was easy to contact such a company.
It can be said that this is also a happy ending.
"Is this the best possible outcome?"
Lorelei was amazed at the sight, "You really care about your own Lapras~"
"Well, if the safety of his people outside is not guaranteed, Lapras will be unable to sleep or eat, and will often worry and strain.
Ash thought a lot about his Pokémon.
That is, through communication with professionals from this water transport company.
No one knew what professional method he used, but the Lapras tribe no longer rejected him because he was a human.
Instead, he began to listen to that human's opinions honestly.
"Then I will send them to Alola Region..."
On the ferry that was sailing away, Captain Canales waved to Ash and said, "Goodbye, everyone!!"
"Goodbye~!"
"Hmm!!"
Ash and the others followed the captain's lead and waved their hands. His Lapras also looked eagerly at his relatives and tribesmen, who gradually went away.
"After we finish this trip, I will let you find your tribe."
Ash gently comforted Lapras, caressing its ice-blue skin with his palm: "When the time comes, you can teleport directly to the Alola Region..."
"Hmm!!"
Hearing Ash say this, Lapras felt much better.
She also rubbed her cheek against Ash's palm affectionately.
Well, in this case, Ash will not release this Lapras.
"And if we send it to the Alola Region, maybe it will become the leader of the Lapras tribe in the entire Alola Region.
"This way, when I go to the Alola Region in the future, there will be a group of Lapras to protect me...
Ash also has a long-term vision, which can be regarded as an early layout for future travel.
So, after capturing the poaching gang, Officer Jenny once again expressed her heartfelt gratitude to Ash.
And he was very enthusiastic and planned to invite Ash to a proper commendation party.
Ash also rejected it with a smile.
Because there is already someone better who would like to invite him to be a guest.
"Why, are you planning to reject my invitation as well?"
Lorelei crossed her arms across her chest, making her chest look even more impressive.
"I am of course happy to go to the invitation of Elite Four Master Lorelei, but..."
Ash looked up and saw the dark clouds gradually rising in Soaring in the sky.
"Right now, there are more important things than being a guest that need to be resolved.
"Oh? Is there anything more important than visiting my house?"
The corners of Lorelei's flaming lips slowly rose: "Then I am really curious.
"Well, may I ask what the important matter is?"
"**"
She looked at Ash who was thinking for a moment, then shrugged, "If you don't want to talk about it, forget it."
"No, it's not that I don't want to say it, but..."
Ash was organizing his words, "This kind of thing cannot be explained in a few words, but if you go to see it in person, you might be able to find out."
"Want to see it live?"
If the previous Lorelei just wanted to chat and have fun with Ash.
And now that she saw Ash being so serious, she was really curious.
"Then, can I go with you to see the scene?"
Instead, Lorelei took the initiative to invite everyone to form a team.
"Let's go together, huh?!"
Ash was visibly stunned; he really hadn't thought of this.
Things are actually developing in this direction.
"Master Lorelei is coming with us, right?!!"
While Ash was still in a daze for a moment, Misty and Tracey beside him had their eyes lit up when they heard it.
"Why, you don't welcome me?"
Lorelei asked jokingly with a deliberate smile.
"How is that possible?!"
Misty quickly said: "If Master Lorelei is willing to follow us, that would be what we want most!!".
