Elf: Who told him to be an investigator!

Chapter 38 Seizing Team Cadres?

Hearing this voice, Ze Shu smiled faintly: "You've finally arrived..."

The two burly men—the so-called boss that Soth and Gates had mentioned—appeared before them.

But when Ze Shu turned his head and saw his appearance, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Like the other two, he had rough skin and a bald head. He had a hard, armor-like iron plate on his chest, which was not common, but it was reasonable.

But a tuft of sharp nose hairs grew out of his nostrils and extended onto his bald head, as if he were using it as hair.

What kind of design is this?

Although it was somewhat comical, his muscles seemed to be stronger than the two henchmen from before.

"Buee—" came the angry cry from Glaceon.

boom!

The ice covering Soth and Gate's upper bodies shattered with a crash, and the sudden warmth jolted them awake. Opening their eyes, they saw their leader, their eyes widening in surprise and delight: "Boss Sab! Come save us!"

But their leader, Sabu, suddenly snorted, seemingly unconcerned about Ze Shu:

"I'm a cadre now! The only boss is that guy with the Black Fiend Skill!"

"This kid, you tied you up?! If I didn't only have you two as my men, I should have..."

Before he could finish speaking, Soth and Gates suddenly looked flustered and hurriedly tried to explain, stammering:

"It was this person who ambushed us, otherwise, with his small frame, there's no way he could have done this to us! Besides, in our hearts, you are also the leader of the raiding party..."

"Hmph!" Hearing this, Sabu seemed a little relieved, and finally looked directly at Ze Shu. "We're the raiding team, so hurry up and release them! I'm in a bad mood right now! The motorcycle didn't sell, so I'll take care of you while I'm at it, and then go and kill that buyer who skipped out on the bill!"

Finally, noticing the ambiguous smile on Ze Shu's face after hearing his words, he assumed it was a forced smile born of panic and glanced at the Pokémon surrounding Ze Shu:

"That's all the Pokémon you have? You won't catch more. Oh well, three is fine..."

"Buee—!!!"

Hearing this, Ice Eevee's face puffed up with anger.

In the blink of an eye, a sharp, icy beam of light shot out and instantly engulfed Sabu's chest before he could react!

pound!!

A clanging sound of metal striking metal rang out, and Sabu's body was thrown high into the air by the freezing light, finally tracing a heavy arc through the air before crashing heavily onto the sand not far behind him.

Ze Shu shook his head helplessly.

This so-called raiding team that came to Sinnoh consists of two insane idiots and an extremely arrogant executive. This so-called executive has been talking for so long, but hasn't even released his Pokémon. Does he think the three Pokémon around him don't exist?

"Cough, cough..."

Perhaps it was the metal plate on his chest that provided some protection, or his strong physique, that allowed the capture team leader to struggle to his feet: "You... don't blame me for being impolite..."

He struggled to pull out a Poké Ball from his waist, its surface roughened by wind and sand, along with a brand new Poké Ball.

Two bangs.

Two Pokémon appeared in front of him.

One is a cicada vibrating its wings at high frequency; the other is two pitted spheres emitting smoke.

Iron-Faced Ninja and Double Egg Gas.

"Buyi—"

Glaceon snorted disdainfully, about to unleash another Blizzard to completely engulf the three of them.

Ze Shu chuckled lightly, "I didn't expect this toughness to be an act. Eevee, let Snow Child and Vulpix show us what they're made of..."

He discovered that the two Pokémon were not only not as powerful as he had previously imagined, but were actually quite weak.

Hearing Zeki's words, Glaceon obediently jumped to the side and stared straight at its opponent.

Vulpix nimbly leaped to Sawaki's side, and Snorunt also strode over to Sawaki's side, both looking at the two Pokémon with fierce expressions.

The fact that this person wanted to take them away angered not only Glaceon but also the other Eevee.

"Hmph! I'll show you whether I'm faking it or not..." Sabu said hoarsely as he struggled to his feet. "Speed ​​up! Iron-Faced Ninja! Double Gas, provide cover from the side. Even if you die, you'll have to shield Iron-Faced Ninja from the damage!"

The Iron-Faced Ninja flapped its wings, soaring swiftly through the air. The Double Gas's pockmarked face was filled with grievance, its wounded body faintly leaking gas.

The Iron-Faced Ninja has a decent trait: speed.

It can continuously increase speed during battle, eventually reaching an absurdly high speed.

But Ze Shu's expression was somewhat strange. He glanced at the double-barreled gas tank that was slowly leaking gas, then looked at the confident Sabu opposite him, and couldn't help but ask:

"Have you, this double-barreled gas cannon, ever fought alongside your Iron-Masked Ninja?"

"Mind your own business!" Sabu scoffed, watching the masked ninja frantically flapping its wings to try and accelerate, and said with satisfaction, "If you're afraid of my trump card, then obediently hand over your Pokémon!"

Despite coming from the Orei region, where there are almost no wild Pokémon and limited Pokémon knowledge, he is still a great talent.

But he has done a lot of research on Pokémon!

That was precisely why he stood out in the team.

Once the Iron-Faced Ninja reaches his maximum speed, he will be invincible! That's the confidence his acceleration ability gives him!

His ace, the Iron-Faced Ninja, was the one who helped him gain a formidable reputation in the Ore region, and even helped him rise to the top of the team when it was at a disadvantage!

In addition, there's this decent Pokémon I acquired after arriving here—Koffing.

This kid is definitely no match for him!

Although he wasn't familiar with the Weezing in his hand, he also had a Weezing under Orei's command, so he considered himself fairly knowledgeable about Pokémon like Weezing.

Ze Shu: "..."

"Ooh—"

Vulpix saw the Pokémon opposite it begin to move.

It remembered Ze Shu's previous teachings, and shook its still-undeveloped tail, trying to instinctively awaken the fine snow in the air.

But after trying for a moment, it had no effect. It looked back at Ze Shu with a somewhat helpless expression.

Ze Shu simply chuckled and said, "That's normal. You don't need to lift a finger this round..."

"Yoki!"

Snow Child's azure eyes were full of seriousness.

From the Yamanashi Research Institute to the outskirts of Jukai City, Sawaki has never stopped teaching and training it. In addition, with the example of Glaceon as a "senior", and the two amazing items "Ice Slab" and "Iceberg Crystal" for training.

Snow Child's progress was very fast and rapid.

"Yoki——"

A vast, overwhelming mass of ice shards erupted instantly, their sharp edges slicing through the air with a whistling sound as they hurtled towards the opposite side. Despite the Iron-Faced Ninja flapping his wings, he still found it difficult to dodge the overwhelming ice shards.

Sabu's eyes narrowed; he knew that ice-attribute techniques were very effective against the Iron-Faced Ninja.

"Double gas, stop it!"

"Waaah—"

Double Gas looked sad, its deeply grotesque body radiating a tangible gas as it stood in front of the Iron-Faced Ninja, acting as a human shield to protect him from the ice shards with its own life.

The Iron-Faced Ninja nestled comfortably behind the Double-Bomb Gas, inhaling the colored, odorless gas emitted by it.

Sabu was completely unconcerned about the attack on the double-explosive gas.

His tactics were simple and brutal: stall for time!

As long as the Iron-Faced Ninja speeds up.

Dealing with this kid is a piece of cake, a piece of cake.
