I'm the Owner of the Pokémon Day Care In the World of Pokémon

Chapter 1040: Chaos

It turn out in the ruins discovered by the circus group, Phantom and Chatot not only learned about the Temple of the Sea and the Sea Crown but also knew the whereabouts of the People of the Water\' ancestral land.

They knew that to find the whereabouts of the Temple of the Sea and the Sea Crown, they must find the whereabouts of the People of the Water.

So over the years, Phantom has been searching for information related to the People of the Water.

Finally, not long ago, Phantom found out in the ancestral land of the People of the Water that there was a treasure deep in the Petalburg Forest ruins.

Once this treasure encounters with the People of the Water, it will react.

So they sneaked into that ruin and brought the thing out.

But they didn\'t expect that there was a Gyarados guarding the thing, so they attracting the attention of the forest rangers and exposing their whereabouts.

That treasure is the transparent pearl that Yuga found on Phantom and his crew.

The information about the pearl was told to Yuga by Zinnian and Zaden when they came.

There are records of this pearl in the ruins of the Petalburg Forest.

However, over the years, no one has found it, and everyone thought it was just a legend.

Unexpectedly, this pearl really exists and was found by Phantom and his group.

Yuga shared his speculation about the connection between the Marina Group and the People of the Water with Officer Jenny, so everyone unanimously decided to wait until the Marina Group arrived in Verdanturf before discussing further.

In the blink of an eye, the day arrived when the Marina Group came to Verdanturf Town.

A long caravan slowly entered Verdanturf Town and stopped outside the town.

The Marina Group is a touring performance group, so their vehicles are all motorhomes.

The members live in the vehicles daily, and each vehicle is quite large, making the caravan particularly spectacular when entering Verdanturf Town.

The arrival of the Marina Group immediately made Verdanturf Town lively, and everyone was discussing about the Marina Group.

After all, this was their first time touring in Verdanturf Town.

The Marina Group moved very quickly.

In just one night, they set up a venue resembling an amusement park in the open space outside Verdanturf Town, and the next day, their water performance officially began.

Becuasethe opportunity was rare, Yuga granted a day off for all the staff in his shop.

He also invited Reggie and Paul to join him in watching the water performance outside the town.

Of course, this was only on the surface.

In secret, Yuga and Officer Liliana brought along the mysterious pearl with them, intending to see if there was any connection between the Marina Group and the People of the Water.

It wasn\'t that they wanted to harm the People of the Water; It\'s mainly because they want to prevent incidents like the People of the Darkness from happening again.

As soon as Yuga, Reggie, and their group entered the Marina Group\'s performance area, they saw numerous large and small water bubbles floating in the air.

Inside these bubbles, cute Water Pokemon were swimming on them, such as group of Remoraid, the neatly lined-up Wopper, and the agile Buizel.

"It\'s so spectacular! Although I\'ve heard about the Marina Group before, this is my first time seeing their performance," Reggie exclaimed, while marveling at the troupe members and Water Pokemons\' captivating performance.

Even Paul, who had been gloomy in the past couple of days, was surprised and had his mouth was wide open.

Children were particularly interested in such performances, and exclamations and cheers could be heard from all around the venue.

"I\'ve seen their performance once before, but at that time the scale wasn\'t as grand as this one," Yuga said with a smile.

Just then, in the crowd ahead, there was a sudden burst of excitement.

Following the commotion, Yuga happened to see a girl in a pink Goldeen swimsuit riding on a Dewgong, leaping out of a large water bubble.

Hum...

Suddenly, Yuga felt a vibration in his pocket.

He reached into his pocket and touched the pearl.

"Let\'s get closer to take a look," Yuga said to Reggie.

"Sure," Reggie nodded in agreement.

As they approached them, Yuga noticed that the closer he got to the girl who was frolicking with the Water Pokemon in the bubble, the stronger the vibrations from the pearl in his pocket became.

At this moment, Officer Liliana happened to come over.

After a brief greeting with Reggie and Paul, she whispered, "How\'s the situation?"

Yuga quietly replied, "The reaction from the pearl is very strong. It seems our speculation was correct."

Officer Liliana nodded discreetly, "I\'ll continue to have people keep an eye on this place. After the performance, we\'ll contact the troupe members."

The two of them briefly discussed and then went their separate ways.

Officer Liliana arranged for personnel nearby.

Then, Yuga, accompanied by Reggie and Paul, explored various performances.

Besides the initial girl, the pearl also reacted similarly to an elderly man and a middle-aged man.

The elderly man was Marina Group\'s leader, Shep, and the middle-aged man was his son, Kyle.

After some inquiries, Yuga learned that the initial girl was named Lizabeth, she was Kyle\'s daughter and Shep\'s granddaughter, and currently a pillar of the Marina Group.

The previous pillar was Lizabeth\'s mother, Meredith.

However, the pearl showed no reaction to Meredith.

While passing by a water pool, Yuga saw a Buizel performing a Water Pulse inside.

When the Buizel noticed Yuga, it suddenly paused for a moment, and then joyfully leaped out of the pool, seemingly intending to run towards Yuga.

Yuga was puzzled by the Buizel\'s behavior.

The way the Buizel looked at him just now made him feel like it knew him, but could that be possible?

However, before the Buizel could reach Yuga, there was a sudden explosion in the distance, and thick smoke billowed from the Marina Group\'s RV.

"Ah!!!"

The explosion alarmed the audience who had come to watch the performance.

The scene instantly descended into chaos, with people scrambling to escape in all directions.

In no time, Yuga lost sight of the Buizel he had just seen.

Immediately after, Yuga witnessed a battle erupting at the site of the explosion.

The combatants were Meredith and three menacing-looking men.

"You guys leave this place first; I\'ll go check the situation," Yuga said solemnly to Reggie and Paul.

"Yeah, be careful," Reggie knew that in a situation like this, Yuga, as a Gym Leader, couldn\'t just stand by and had to protect Paul from any trouble.

As Yuga turned around and walk a few steps, Officer Liliana walk over toward him, while pushing through the crowd.

"It seems the Phantom Pirate Crew\'s member have sneak in and their target is probably the Marina Group," Officer Liliana said with a serious expression.

Yuga replied, "You organize people to evacuate the audience; I\'ll go check on the troupe."

"Okay," Officer Liliana nodded.

After parting ways, Yuga noticed some troublemakers with Pokemon causing a ruckus around him.

Without a doubt, these were members of the Phantom Pirate Crew disguised as spectators, and aiming to create chaos.

It turned out that after Phantom was captured, the Phantom Pirate Crew quickly received the news and sent people to Verdanturf Town.

They initially planned to rescue Phantom, but the security at the Verdanturf Town\'s police station was too tight, so they had to abandon the idea and shift their focus to the Marina Group.

The one who leading the crew this time was the vice-captain of the Phantom Pirate Crew, it was Phantom\'s right-hand man.

He knew everything that Phantom knew, and he also involved with the incident in the Petalburg Forest.

After leaving Petalburg Forest, he and Phantom went their separate ways.

Phantom found the Marina Group and, upon learning they were coming to Verdanturf Town, he arrived in Verdanturf Town ahead of time to wait for they arrival.

On the other hand, he returned to the pirate crew\'s headquarters.

Upon learning that Phantom couldn\'t be rescued, this vice-captain planned this looting operation during the chaos.

After learning that Phantom couldn\'t be rescued, he intended to at least seize valuable items.

Without Phantom, he could still operate as an independent pirate – pirates didn\'t have to adhere to any sense of morality.

Yuga noticed the troublemakers from the Phantom Pirate Crew.

Naturally, the crew members also noticed Yuga, and soon he found himself surrounded by a group of people.

Their goal wasn\'t necessarily to harm Yuga; they just wanted to delay him for a short time.

This way, their vice-captain could escape with the loot.

The Phantom Pirate Crew brought quite a lot of people this time, and the scene was chaotic everywhere, with ordinary people running and screaming.

If not for the efforts of the police station personnel maintaining order, there might have been a stampede by now.

So even if there weren\'t these people surrounding him, Yuga wouldn\'t be able to walk out of the chaotic crowd in a short while.

This is the reason the other side created chaos.

Two kingler, two Octillery, three Corpish, and two Crawdaunt all attacked Yuga at the same time.

In order not to harm innocent spectators around, Yuga could only release Breloom and Bellossom to deal with them, as they were relatively small and less likely to cause collateral damage.

Watching the approaching Pokemon toward it, Breloom swiftly threw punches, and the fist shadows flashed with thunder and lightning.

The two Kingler and two Octillery were instantly knocked down.

Bellossom quickly danced, wielding the two leaf blades in its hands.

Wherever it went, the Corpish and Crawdaunt howled and fell to the ground.

After this group of Pokemon fell, seeing another wave of Pokemon rushing towards him, Yuga didn\'t want to entangle with them anymore.

He directly said to Breloom and Bellossom, "Handle them."

After Breloom and Bellossom nodded, he released Chimecho.

Chimecho used its Psychic Power to lift him into the sky.

Some tried to stop him, but their attacks were all blocked by Chimecho\'s Light Screen.

Due to the chaos caused by the Phantom Pirate Crew, all the water bubbles used for the performance had disappeared.

Only puddles of water remained on the ground.

The battles were happening everywhere – the fight between the police station and the pirates, the clash between the Marina Group and the pirates, and the struggle between the audience and the pirates.

The scene was chaotic beyond description.

Yuga was about to have Chimecho take him to support the Marina Group when he suddenly saw a Buizel being surrounded below.

He quickly ordered Chimecho to rescue it.

This Buizel was the one that was planning to run towards Yuga earlier.

Holding the Buizel in his arms, Yuga saw that it seemed to have something to say but hesitated.

However, in the urgent situation, Yuga didn\'t have time to listen, so he chose to ignore it.

At this moment, the leader of the Marina Group, Shep, Shep\'s son, Kyle, and Lizabeth were all restrained and unable to immediately go to support Meredith.

Meredith was desperately holding her ground against the three opponents.

If it weren\'t for a seemingly powerful Floatzel assisting her, she would have likely been defeated long ago.

In Meredith\'s arms there was something resembling an incubator, and this was the target of the Phantom Pirate Crew\'s mission this time.

Bang!

The Floatzel that was assisting Meredith was sent flying by the opposing Feraligatr.

A Golduck immediately lunged toward Meredith.

At a critical moment, a dazzling Light Screen suddenly appeared in front of Meredith, blocking the Golduck\'s claws and producing a sharp sound.

"Are you okay?" Yuga\'s voice resonated in Meredith\'s ears.

Looking up to see Yuga in the sky, Meredith breathed a sigh of relief.

She was well aware about the Verdanturf Town\'s Gym Leader.

Yuga\'s appearance made the three men besieging Meredith\'s face turn very unpleasant, especially the one in the middle who directly cursed, "Useless!"

So many people couldn\'t stop one person!

However, Yuga\'s arrival did not deter them completely.

After planning this disturbance with great effort, they couldn\'t simply just give up with empty-handed.

Another Golduck quickly jumped to Meredith\'s side.

The two Golduck, one on each side, waved their claws towards Meredith.

Meredith\'s Mantine used Wide Guard in time to block the attacks from both Golduck.

The Floatzel regained its composure just in time nad promptly rallied, using Aqua Jet to knock them both away.

At this moment, the opposing Feraligatr, Crawdaunt, and Octillery attacked again.

However, they were suddenly frozen into ice sculptures by a blue beam of light that was descending from the sky.

At some point, Yuga\'s Lapras had floated beside him.

Seeing their three main attacking Pokémon were instantly frozen, the faces of the three men on the opposite side changed dramatically.

The two of them immediately turned around to run away, but once again, they were frozen in place by Lapras\'s Ice Beam.

One Tentacool, one Tentacruel, one Omastar, and one Golduck, seeing their trainer frozen, immediately counterattacked towards Yuga.

However, just as their moves began to brew halfway, they were followed the fate of their trainer.

The last one is the vice-captain of the Phantom Pirate Crew who was directly scared out of his wits, he\'s sitting on the ground with his wet pants.

It was too terrifying!

His Golduck, Poliwrath, Tentacruel, and Kingler, were quiet brave and they quickly stood in front of him.

However, how could they become the opponents for the Champion level Lapras?

They were instantly wiped out by a single move from Lapras.

Seeing the opponent easily dealt with by Yuga, Meredith quickly expressed her gratitude, "Thank you so much."

Yuga swiftly knocked out the vice-captain of the Phantom Pirate Crew with a karate chop and then said, "Let\'s deal with the other troublemakers first."

The pirate crew without their leader was quickly solved by the combined efforts of the police and the Marina Group.

However, the situation at the Marina Group was chaotic.

Not only did the audience flee, but most of the facilities and equipment were also damaged, which resulting in significant losses.

Seeing the mess in front of him, Shep felt like crying but had no tears.

He looked at the object in his daughter-in-law\'s arms, and sighed in relief.

Fortunately that the most important thing was unharmed.

After all the pirates member were captured, and Yuga remembered the little one in his arms.

"Do we know each other?" Yuga asked the small Buizel in his arms.

"Buizel! Buizel! Buizel!" The Buizel nodded its vigorously in response.
