Rope opened his wings of fire and flew up into the sky, the flames around him began to leap, as well as a multitude of strange and flaming beasts surrounding Rope, each one eyeing Quagsire intently.
Quagsire looked at the sun, which was a little brighter, and the heat around him, and knew that he didn't have to think about fighting Rope for the weather. So he spat out a large amount of water from his mouth.
This place, which was originally a wetland, could now be described as a lake.
Rope looked at the surging waves below and couldn't help but nod somewhat in admiration.Quagsire's battle thoughts were no problem either. He himself didn't know how to fly, and he couldn't compete with the weather, so guarding his ground was the best choice.
After all, Quagsire's own attributes were water plus ground. This gave Quagsire a unique advantage in the wetlands.
Even Rope couldn't simply solve the advantage that the terrain gave Quagsire...
He's not really going to burn the sky and boil the sea.
He couldn't do such bullshit for the time being. He might later, but definitely not now.
So for now, Rope could only watch as Quagsire had his way with the terrain he wanted on his own turf.
"Tck, Unaware traits, not unaware at all!"
Rope couldn't help but sigh, then with a flurry of fire wings, countless fire feathers drifted down and smashed down from the sky.
Quagsire also didn't dare to let these feathers get too close by himself, so his own cylinder-like tail slammed downwards, and countless water arrows met the slowly drifting down fire feathers, and attacked them in a lightning fast manner.
So a tiny explosion rang out, and with it the sound of water opening up.
Rope looked at Quagsire, honestly he knew Quagsire wouldn't be easy to deal with, but this guy did qualify as a formidable foe.
Ergo, meaning without Rope in full battle mode.
After all, Rope even had her clothes on right now.
Seeing that Fire Feather Drift didn't achieve any results, Rope wasn't discouraged. After all, this move was designed to confuse people's eyes.
The field was now filled with steam, and Rope's fire plume wasn't broken, falling at a distance that didn't do much damage to Quagsire's side. And then...the water boils.
Even though the water had boiled, Quagsire didn't feel any discomfort. He had the Hot Water skill himself, so he naturally tolerated this temperature. Of course it was water of this temperature.
If he had to face the heat without water, then Quagsire would have either surrendered by the end of the day or be roasted to Quagsire dry.
The vapor filled the room, obscuring the sight of the one-man Pokémon, and Quagsire looked as if he was too confused to find where the human was. But in reality his attention was on Rope the whole time.
Kidding aside, at this level, if you can't even ignore something that simply blocks your sight, then you're really wasted. Unless it was the kind of guy who just mindlessly fired a wide range AOE when he encountered this kind of situation.
But what Quagsire didn't expect was that Rope was actually in that position without moving a muscle. I don't know what he's doing.
Quagsire was wary; after all, to say that Rope couldn't see his own position would be pure, unadulterated bullshit. If he really couldn't see his place, why would he choose such a tactic?
It was illogical.
But in the next moment, as if Quagsire suddenly reacted to something, his tail slammed down once again, and with a lift of both hands, two streams of mud and water rose directly from the ground, with one transforming into a water arrow and attacking towards Rope's position. While the other stream of mud was transformed into a spherical flow shield around him.
Rope above him naturally saw Quagsire's attack and defense. But he didn't care too much. The huge fireball in his hand, but without the slightest amount of heat spilling out, slammed down towards the ground.
The moment the red-colored flames made contact with the water, a huge vapor exploded.
And in the next instant, Quagsire felt his flowing mud and water shield turn into dry dirt almost instantly. This would have been a screaming Quagsire if it had been a close protection.
As for the one water arrow that rushed towards Rope, Rope just casually flicked out a small ball of fire and then simply dispersed that water arrow.
Rope had every intention of testing Quagsire's level, but really, Quagsire himself wasn't even close to one and any of the gods.
If a Champion really wanted to fight him, then just a single Pokémon at the beginning Champion level would be enough to take him out.
After all, while this guy's battle sense was great and he was quite strong, beyond that, there really just wasn't anything else to commend him.
The perception of his own strength was so poor that he really thought he was some invincible Pokémon.
It could be said to be a strong person, but it really wasn't much of a powerhouse.
Rope waved his fire wings, and the huge airflow blew away all the vapor, making the originally obscured vision clear once again.
Rope looked down at the ground below that had been almost vaporized and had been revealed to be cracked.
And at that moment, Quagsire had stepped out of his ball of dirt.
He was genuinely confused for a moment, knowing that this defense of his could be said to be tried and true when he had fought the other guys in the wetlands before.
The defense could not be broken at all by long distance. And a melee attack would even get him dragged into the ball and then trapped in the water, or sneak a hand.
But Rope wasn't even part of breaking his defense now, this was part of crushing it.
If it had been two waves of consecutive attacks just now, Quagsire guessed he would have been seriously injured if not crippled.
Therefore, the gaze he was looking at Rope now could no longer be described as fear.
It could only be described as fear.
No, isn't this a human? Why is it so strong.
Obviously Rope does not want to play with him.Rope this guy is like this, test two will not be involuntarily move real. And the extent of the real, is able to the other side of the degree of defeat.
So unless the other side can come up with a bit of something new, Rope will really dare to finish the other side off.
He didn't have any killing intent towards Quagsire. After all, he was just an innocent little Quagsire.
Seeing that Quagsire didn't have any desire to fight, Rope landed on the ground with a big smile and said to Quagsire, "How is it? We have fought, if you still want to continue to fight, I will accompany, if you do not fight, I will take the things to go how?"
Rope wasn't at all afraid that Quagsire would sneak up on him. Just kidding, he wasn't Mustard, how could he be attacked so easily.
And right now Quagsire didn't even have the heart to sneak up on Rope with one hand.
Success doesn't necessarily take out Rope. After all, he hadn't probed Rope's bottom yet. If he didn't succeed, he would definitely be finished off by Rope. He didn't think that the temper of someone who was able to master such explosive flames would be that good.
He wouldn't be surprised at all if he said it was very bad. Instead, he was surprised enough that Rope was still able to talk to him properly now.
"Qua!"
Quagsire nodded a little timidly. After all, the current Rope didn't look like he was being nice. Since he had promised Rope that he would give him the item after winning the fight.
Now if he dared to back out, Rope would dare to directly make Quagsire regret being born.
At this point, Samurott, who was still lying and wailing in the depths of the wetlands, really had something to say. This guy is really outrageous to the point of excess, Samurott now also do not know how long he will continue to be like this state, anyway, that abominable human still seems to have no intention of letting go of their own.
Quagsire took Rope into the thatched hut with him.
Quagsire himself wasn't afraid of the wind, sun, rain or snow. He even kinda liked all of the sky phenomena. After all, he could adapt to each one with relative ease.
So the question arises, what is the point of this thatched hut's existence?
Rope had been pondering this question from the first moment he arrived here, though he hadn't pondered much of an answer is all.
But now, he also knew the answer to this question.
This thatched hut, was for Quagsire to store his treasure.
A fire sprouted from Rope's fingers, illuminating the dark thatched hut.
Balls... or more balls.
It's true that this racial trait doesn't leave much room for salvation at all even if you reach the Champion level.
Quagsire...have a special fondness for round things, and will generally pray to the full moon with these round things, and then return them to their original owners. But there are also some Quagsire who will not return their spherical objects because these things in their consciousness, snatched into their hands, that is their own, there is no intention to return.
This one right here is clearly the latter.
A bandit Quagsire.
The corners of Rope's mouth twitched slightly, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
The thing one was looking for was a map, right? Would something like a map be spherical!
Rope was lost in thought, and after a few moments of contemplation, he was pretty sure that he really hadn't seen a map in the shape of a sphere before. So he started thinking about the possibility of that Takeshi guy fooling himself.
But after a few moments of thought, he dismissed the idea.
What would Takeshi have to gain by snubbing himself? The problem was that Quagsire didn't have anything special in mind for him.
As for what Takeshi had in mind for Quagsire...
As for what Takeshi thinks about Quagsire, Takeshi's not even close to being interested in dealing with Quagsire.
Either that, or it's just a way to hold himself back and keep himself here a little longer with Sennogi?
Even more pointless, he's going to be here for a not-so-short period of time in his own right. After all, Celebi hadn't awakened yet, and he himself wouldn't be able to leave until after she did.
Then again, this Rope fellow's promise to Celebi would have to be done soon. After all, it couldn't be delayed for too long.
Right now Rope didn't have the heart to pay attention to this matter. After all, Rope's main priority right now was to find the map.
"Qua!"
"I need to find a map...although I do look at you like you don't have a map here."
Rope rubbed his head somewhat helplessly, but in the end, he didn't think too much about it and crouched down to start searching carefully piece by piece.
The odds were that this map didn't react much with the Origin. So there wasn't any good way to search for it, so he could only look for it piece by piece.
Quagsire watched Rope wreak havoc in his own collection pile, Quagsire it was called a heartache unbearable ah!
He felt like every touch of Rope's dirty hands on his stash was a desecration of his baby gate.
It felt as if the girl you'd liked for a long time and with whom you'd already had some emotional grounding was suddenly captured by another guy. And you witnessed her getting intimate with that guy.
That's a lot to take in!
But unable to fight, Quagsire could only turn away from the sad scene.
It was too sad...
Rope doesn't let him suffer for long, though. After all, Rope had started looking from the edge, and it didn't take him long to find a crystal ball. The crystal ball had the sight of rolling hills and rivers rushing by.
Rope instantly recognized it as a topographical map of the Sinnoh region. Of course, that wasn't the point, the point was... there were some small black dots one by one on this topographic map.
The locations of these small black dots were immediately recognized by Rope.
The locations of the Village of Grass, the Village of Earth, and the Village of Darkness were all on it.
Yet there were only 17 small black dots.
The location of the Village of the Water was missing.
One look like that and you know who built this thing.
It's a standard dead friend, not a poor one!
But seriously, it's a normal situation. We haven't seen each other for years. There aren't many villages that are as close as distant cousins. As far as Rope could see from the relationship between Village of Darkness and Village of Earth, there was basically no difference between the way Village of Darkness treated Village of Earth and the way it treated outsiders.
After all, so many years have passed. Still wanting to be as good as they were in the beginning is impossible without enough benefit exchanges and entanglements.
Many of you may have had the feeling that when you were a child, there was a family near your house that played well with your family, but slowly, the relationship between the two families gradually drifted apart, and could even be said to have deteriorated.
This is also normal. It is inevitable that a good relationship will be entangled with interests. Something like interest is the catalyst of friendship and the catalyst of friendship.
Therefore, the best in addition to the depth of the interests of the bundle, a glory, a loss, two families and as a family. The other thing is to keep a certain distance. As far as possible, do not get involved in too many exchanges of interests.
Rope is rarely exposed to this kind of thing. After all, when he was a child, his parents had good relationships with their old classmates who they hadn't seen in many years, but more of them were internal staff of the institute. Given his mom and dad's status and research capabilities, there weren't many people who came up and messed things up.
Rope shook his head and stowed his stuff in his own backpack before turning to Quagsire, "Thanks, Quagsire!"
Quagsire doesn't even look at him and tells him to get lost!
