Chapter 378 there is always someone who wants to harm me

...

"In the early spring of next year, Sinnoh Alliance will hold Lily of the Valley Conference in Lily of the Valley Island" Shirona said.

"Lily of the Valley Conference?" The dessert Natsu was about to shove into his mouth stopped in midair, blinking at her.

Isn't the Lily of the Valley Conference the conference that Ash and the others attended?

"To be precise, it is the Lily of the Valley Youth Conference. The organizer is the Sinnoh Alliance. The competition location is Lily of the Valley Island. Participants are required to be under the age of 20." Shirona speaks softly. She took a bite out of the blue silk and took a small bite of the bread.

Based on the speed at which she eats, Natsu estimates that she can eat five or six of her own.

Isn't this an obvious disadvantage?

These desserts on the table are free.

"Youth tournament?"

"Yes, but not only the Trainer in Sinnoh Region, Sinnoh Alliance will also send some invitations to other Regions to increase the visibility of some games."

Shirona looked at the bread she took a bite of, and then looked at the empty table in front of Natsu.

She felt a little embarrassed all of a sudden.

Calling Natsu over and letting her eat these, as the host really did a little bit badly.

Involuntarily, she pushed some of the desserts in front of her to Natsu's face.

"Then what does this have to do with being a Gym Leader?"

Natsu continued eating dessert as if he didn't see Shirona in action.

Professor Rowan is worthy of being an authoritative Professor in the Sinnoh Region. Even if he eats dim sum, the taste is quite good.

Although it may be that Natsu hasn't had a better, top-ranked dessert.

"If you can win, you will definitely get the attention of the Alliance. It is said that in order to attract more young trainers' attention, the prizes set up at the Lily of the Valley Youth Conference are very good."

Shirona pursed her lips and continued: "If you are willing to give up the reward, or get the favor of the Alliance, it is not that you are not qualified for the Gym Leader assessment."

A victory in exchange for the qualification of the Gym Leader assessment?

Not yet directly eligible to become a Gym Leader.

Natsu looked thoughtful nod.

It's okay, at least a chance to try it.

Immediately after asking: "Only for the first place?"

Shirona hesitated: "Probably. It's an opportunity, if not, at least you can get some prizes and resources."

She's not sure, but Natsu estimates that if the popularity of this Youth Conference is high enough, it might be enough to get the top three. Have the opportunity.

"Then how did you put this method behind?" Natsu said curiously.

Hearing this, Shirona's crimson lips are slightly curved, which outlines a beautiful and confident arc.

"Because I will also participate."

So she must be the first.

Natsu was silent.

It made sense, he had no words to refute it.

With Shirona's strength, as long as the future champions from other Regions don't participate, it is a sure thing to win the first place.

Sinnoh Alliance can do things. Shirona, as a well-known figure in the younger generation of Sinnoh Region and even the entire Pokémon Alliance, still has an excellent appearance, and the number of fans is definitely very large.

If she participates, it will attract more Trainers to participate, and at the same time attract the attention of many people to cross this competition.

It's almost like getting a Celebrity endorsement.

Even bigger than Celebrity's hype.

"Did they pay you for advertising?"

"Huh?" Shirona didn't quite understand.

"It's alright. Don't worry about the details" Natsu waved his hands again and again.

Back to the topic.

"What about the format of the competition? All-to-all battles? Or all-to-wheel battles? Or limit the number of Pokémons to a certain level?"

"Because considering that they are all young Trainers , so this time after the Lily of the Valley youth tournament entered the knock-out competition stage, the number of participating Pokémons was limited to three."

Pause for a while.

"As for the final semi-final and final stage, the tournament will be adjusted according to the situation, it may be a full-player battle, a full-player wheel battle, or a knock-out. The competition stage is similar, limited to three Pokémon."

Natsu silently nodded.

It's not good for him to fight with all the players, because there are only four Pokémons that he mainly trains and cultivates.

If it's a full battle, he'll either bring in two spare "tool" Pokémons, or start developing two from now on.

However, the early spring that Shirona said is not far from now, and it is definitely too late to cultivate.

In addition, training Pokémon also consumes a lot of materials.

It doesn't work

Take Snorlax up.

As long as Snorlax is willing to cooperate with Natsu, with his understanding of Snorlax as a Pokémon, and his "unique" tactics, it is no exaggeration to say. Push the team!

That's it.

Using Snorlax may result in direct expulsion.

"Actually, I personally recommend you to participate." Shirona lifts the head, looked at Natsu solemnly and said seriously: "I've always wanted to have a battle with you."

Natsu was taken aback.

He always felt that there was a group of people who seemed to be staring at him all the time.

They just want to play with him right?

The less he wanted to fight, the more others wanted to fight.

There is a sense of sight that "there is always someone who wants to harm me".

He suddenly had a feeling.

Lance and Steven, if they had known that he was going to participate, would they have come to the competition to find an excuse to fight with him?

At that time.

Shirona, Lance, and Steven were in the top three.

How did he get the qualifications of Gym Leader?

Think about it this way.

He suddenly felt that his chances were getting smaller.

Possible

He had to find a way to let Shirona eliminate them, or let them eliminate each other.

Natsu's eyes lit up, he's been trying to find a way to "stab in the back" himself. Some of these strong and powerful "friends".

Looking at Shirona again.

He rubbed his chin gently.

Eevee Shirona must also evolve.

If you don't evolve, it will be more difficult to deal with certain Flying experts.

In Natsu's opinion, the perfect candidate to backstab those two guys is Shirona.

It's not that Shirona is better than them, it's just because those two are loyal to a certain Attribute or two Attributes, compared to a Trainer like Shirona who doesn't specialize in a certain Attribute , easier to target.

He didn't even think about whether to participate in this competition or not, but he was already thinking about how to backstab others.

'I really am a wicked person, and my heart is full of dark thoughts.'

Natsu shook his head.

Shirona watched as Natsu's expression changed, and she was a little uncertain about his inner change.

asked tentatively: "Natsu, will you participate?"

"Participate, Maybe, I don't know yet." Natsu came back to his senses, "Right, when will the Lily of the Valley youth tournament start?"

Shirona recalled and said: "From today, there should be more than a month and a few days, but the registration deadline is one Week before the start of the competition, if you want to participate, don't miss the registration. "

Hearing her exhortation, Natsu looked thoughtful and said, "So there should be another month?"

One month is enough for him to make a lot of changes and bring about progress.

However, in this way, it becomes particularly urgent to convert the resources collected in the different space of Regigigas into strength.

If he calculate carefully, he can barely digest those materials in a month.

"If you want to participate, just give me a call to save you the step of signing up," Shirona said.

"Okey, I'm going to trouble you."

"It's fine."
