Chapter 226 The Boy Who Traveled Through Time
"Satoshi, what should we do now?"
When Xiaoxia opened the gold and silver spheres, a person fell out, leaving her unsure of what to do.
"Looking at how weak he is, I hope nothing bad has happened to him."
"So he was also caught by a Poké Ball?" Rika asked curiously as she leaned closer.
"It shouldn't be. It seems that the Gold and Silver Balls simply opened a passage, and then he and that green Pokémon fell out together."
After retrieving the gold and silver balls and putting them away, Ash glanced at the boy with the bob haircut lying on the ground.
As someone who appeared along with the time tunnel, they should know some inside information.
"It's not good to just leave him in the forest like this. Let's carry him back to Kano Village first."
Then the boy received the treatment of being carried in a sack, being bumped along on Ash's shoulder all the way back to the old lady's wooden cabin outpost.
However, the old lady wasn't there, and her granddaughter was quite surprised to see Ash carrying someone back from the forest not long after he went in.
Quickly have them carry the person inside to rest.
After lying on Grandma Miku's sofa for a while, the boy finally opened his eyes, and everyone quickly gathered around him.
Unexpectedly, the boy opened his eyes and immediately showed a nervous expression, and in his panic, he pushed away Ash, who was closest to him.
"Who are you? I will not hand over the shrine to you!"
Judging from his stressed appearance, he was probably being chased not long ago.
Xiao Zhi naturally has a good solution for this situation.
"If a child is naughty and doesn't behave well, they probably deserve a beating!"
With a single, instantly calming punch, the boy immediately regained his composure. Then, the doctor pinched his philtrum and fed him healing medicine.
The boy finally woke up slowly once again.
"Ugh, my head hurts so much. I think I was just attacked by something—"
"Illusion! This is the first time you've woken up." Ash, whose skin is thick enough to stop bullets, said calmly.
"Just stay calm, it's okay, we're not bad people."
At this moment, Miku brought over a glass of water to calm the boy down and asked him about the specific situation.
"Who are you, and why are you suddenly appearing near the temple?"
Her grandmother always guarded the entrance to the forest, and all those who entered were registered, so it was rare for travelers to go missing or be murdered.
Moreover, Mei had no recollection of ever seeing this boy before.
"Temple————"
"My name is Yukinari, and I am a trainer traveling from the Kanto region."
Just then, Miku's grandmother finally returned, and she immediately showed an excited expression when she saw the boy.
"It's you! Thank goodness you're alright."
Grandma hugged Xuecheng tightly as soon as she arrived, and Xuecheng finally recognized her.
"You're the older sister who gave me bread back then."
When Xuecheng first entered the forest, it was this older sister who appeared and told him to be careful.
They also gave him a piece of bread, which is still lying quietly in his backpack.
Instead, as soon as he entered the forest, he encountered a shrub being chased by poachers, and somehow ended up here while protecting it.
"By the way, where's Celebi?" Yukinari suddenly realized that Celebi was not with him and immediately began to search for him anxiously.
"We were being chased by a poaching gang at the time, and it was badly injured and definitely needed treatment."
"Celebi, that green Pokémon?"
"After you landed, it suddenly flew away on its own."
Upon hearing Xiaozhi speak, Yukino showed a blank expression.
Then Xiao Zhi realized that they hadn't introduced themselves yet.
"Hello, my name is Ash, and I'm a trainer traveling with the goal of becoming a Pokémon Master."
Xiaoxia and Lihua followed closely behind Xiaozhi and introduced themselves, though Lihua didn't mention that she was one of the Elite Four.
After learning that it was Xiaozhi and his friends who had rescued him, Xuecheng thanked them.
However, he was still confused when he saw that the gentle older sister from back then had turned into an old woman in the blink of an eye.
At that moment, Grandma Miku suddenly got up, took out a notebook carefully wrapped in cloth from the bookshelf behind her, and sat back down at the table.
"It's time travel."
"Xuecheng, you must have been taken from the past to the future forty years from now by the Forest God."
"Forty years from now!" Xuecheng quickly took a sip of water. He had only ever seen such fantastical things as time travel in picture books.
He never expected to experience it firsthand one day, and for a moment his thoughts were in turmoil.
"Yes, it has been exactly forty years since you disappeared."
"Was that little green Pokémon the Forest Spirit?" Ash knew that Gold and Silver Pokémon wouldn't be that simple.
"If your description is correct, then it should be the legendary Pokémon that can bring life to forests and travel through time."
"The Lake of Life in the maple forest, which is the habitat of our childhood rhymes, can heal all life through the power of the Shrab."
Grandma Miku handed the notebook to Yukinari as she recounted the ancient legends.
"Is this something you dropped?"
Upon seeing her own sketchbook, Xuecheng immediately opened it.
Although it has inevitably become worn after forty years, it has been carefully preserved.
Xuecheng was still pleased to see that the drawing he had left on it was still clearly visible.
Everyone crowded around to look, and there were sketches of Pokémon drawn very well, very lifelike and vivid.
"It's drawn so well."
Xiao Zhi, who is terrible at drawing, said he envies those who are good at drawing, because his own drawings are like dog poop.
"Thank you for the compliment. This is actually my Pokédex, used to record the Pokémon I've encountered."
At that moment, Ash suddenly received a message from James, and after reading it carefully, he immediately frowned.
"Oh no, we probably need to go back to the forest to find Silavi immediately."
"I've received intelligence that the Rockets have infiltrated the maple forest and begun a thorough search; their target is to capture Celebi!"
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have triggered a new side quest, "Celebi's Great Rescue": Find Celebi before Team Rocket and heal it.]
[Rewards: Alliance Coins +3000; Speed +1; Defense +1; Free Attribute Points +2]
"What?! The Rockets!"
Everyone except Xuecheng immediately tensed up.
"Team Rocket—are they rocket builders? Why are they trying to capture Celebi?"
I almost forgot there were people here from forty years ago.
"No, they are an evil organization that illegally steals Pokémon; they are vicious criminals."
Upon hearing Ash mention the evil organization, Yukinari finally realized something was wrong.
"We need to hurry and rescue Shirabi, and given its injuries, it needs to receive treatment as soon as possible."
He immediately regained his fighting spirit after the anxiety of traveling through time and space, and ran into the maple forest with Ash and the others.
However, the core area of the maple forest is also surprisingly large.
Even if Ash uses his full power of Aura Perception, he can search a radius of 3 kilometers in a short time.
However, finding even a small Pokémon here is extremely difficult; you can only search while moving around.
"We have to find them before Team Rocket." Ash only needed to sense them briefly to discover at least four Team Rocket-piloted robots.
Unfortunately, there are too many Team Rocket members. Getting rid of a batch of them will definitely attract Team Rocket members from other places. They need to hurry up and find Celebi to treat it.
Otherwise, given Xiaozhi's personality, he would definitely crush these lumps of iron into scrap metal first.
For now, the only option is to temporarily evade Team Rocket's detection using Ash's Aura Sense, without alerting them.
Suddenly, as they passed a grove of trees, Pikachu seemed to have noticed something and jumped off Ash's shoulder.
"What's wrong, Pikachu?"
"Pikachu!"
Pikachu wagged its tail, signaling Ash and the others to follow it.
Ash recalls Noctowl, which was searching for Celebi in the sky, and chooses to trust Pikachu.
The group followed it at a jog and finally stopped in front of a fallen tree trunk.
There was a hole in the huge tree trunk, and many Pokémon were gathered around the entrance, anxiously looking into the hole.
It's like they're protecting this place.
