Chapter 170 Leaving the Orange Islands
Ash released all the Pokémon that had been imprisoned inside the ship.
All the Pokémon these poachers caught in a month are here.
They originally planned to capture all the Lapras today and send them to their benefactor, but unexpectedly, Ash managed to save them all at once.
Xiao Zhi accepted all the money, including the deposit from the investor and the poacher's savings, without hesitation.
And so they returned to the police station with the pirate ship and the poachers.
"Ah, Ash, thank you so much for helping us catch these poachers."
"But why did they become like this?"
Miss Officer Jenny looked at the group of people in front of her who trembled and cried out for jail at the sight of Superpower and Ironhide Tyrannosaurus Rex.
"Don't worry about the details, they just got a little bit taught a lesson by the Pokémon."
After handing the poaching gang over to Officer Jenny, Ash immediately called Brock.
When Xiao Yong received the call, he was very happy, thinking that Xiao Zhi had changed his mind and was willing to become one of the Elite Four.
Unfortunately, Ash came to talk to him about the Pokémon Reserve.
After learning the whole story, Xiao Yong's expression instantly turned very serious.
He sincerely apologized to Xiaozhi.
"It is my fault as the chief that poachers have been able to operate so rampantly in this region."
"Thanks to Xiaozhi's help this time, I owe you so much. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need any help!"
In the end, Ash only asked for the investment and management rights of the Lapras Reserve, since Lapras wanted to live with its family in the future.
Having its own people involved in the daily operations of the reserve not only allows the group to accumulate knowledge about Pokémon ecosystem building, but also to better care for the Lapras population.
After all, the Orange Alliance is in dire need of resources right now.
Furthermore, Ash's Lapras can live with its family in its protected area, so it doesn't count as being released.
Ash can visit Lapras or call it to battle whenever he wants.
In the evening, Ash called Lapras over and, as usual, gently stroked its head.
"If bad guys come again while I'm gone, you must protect your territory and your people."
"Oh, oh~!" Lapras's cry was also filled with reluctance to part with Ash.
As the sun set, Ash looked at the small hill in front of him and was filled with emotion.
"When we first met, it was such a tiny little thing, and in just six months it's grown so much—"
Before parting, Ash once again rode Lapras across the sea.
[Ding! Dragon Chaser: Affection +2; Intimacy +2]
[Ding! Dragon: Affection and intimacy have reached maximum!]
[Rewards: Alliance Coins +1200; Special Defense +2; Skill: Song of Annihilation]
After telling Lapras that he would come to see it whenever he had time, Ash and his friends boarded the ship bound for Vermilion City.
In the ship's cabin, Ash first took out the little black egg from his backpack and cleaned its surface with a Warm Coin.
"Lugia said it would hatch soon, but so much time has passed and there's still no sign of it hatching."
Ash only sensed it flashing a few times in his backpack yesterday when he rewarded the poaching group.
At other times, it remains quiet and still.
"It seems like it moved when I was dealing with Gilluta before. Do I have to do more similar things before it can hatch?"
Shaking his head, Xiao Zhi decided to stop thinking about all this nonsense.
"Perhaps Lugia's speed is slightly different from that of a normal human."
Ash puts the little black egg away and opens the shop interface.
He had a whole day before leaving the Orange Islands, so he wanted to hurry up and buy all the good things he could find in the shops.
Unfortunately, although he made a small fortune in the end, Ash invested another 50 million to protect Lapras.
Now I only have half of the funds left to go on a shopping spree.
Although I've used up all the highest-grade healing potions, the most basic ones have the advantage of being fast-acting. Buying them all cost 200.
Million.
The dyed fruit is very useful; it can be sold for money later. The total cost of purchasing it was 800 million.
After buying three more Master Balls, Ash will have absolutely nothing left.
"I should be able to survive on the rewards from the occasional side quests I trigger in my daily routine—"
If all else fails, you can always go live off Xiaoxia, it's okay.
Then Xiaozhi brought up his panel, and he wanted to add up all the free attribute points he had accumulated during this time.

After adding points, Ash lay on the bed, stroking Pikachu's head and admiring his stats.
Suddenly, the system notification sounded again.
[Ding! Detection indicates completion of the Orange Region trip; system upgrade imminent]
【...·】
[Updated titles and trait fusion function; refreshed shop items]
The shop item refresh was normal, but the fusion function in front of it piqued Xiaozhi's curiosity.
I quickly took a closer look.
【Characteristic Fusion: Any number of characteristics can be used as raw materials to fuse. The name and effect of the final fused characteristic are determined by the raw materials (only characteristics of the same level can participate in fusion)】
【Title Fusion: Any number of titles can be used as raw materials to fuse together. The name and effect of the final fused title are determined by the raw materials used.】
[Integration Fee: 10 per session]
"Hmm, it doesn't say whether the effect will definitely be better or worse after fusion—." Ash sensed a strong sense of unreliability.
But I still decided to give it a try, otherwise I was really itching to try it.
The special characteristics are quite important and shouldn't be tested randomly, while titles only have an effect when worn and are otherwise useless.
So Xiaozhi chose two titles with rather lackluster effects to fuse.
[Scumbag: His HP increases by 5% when battling female trainers]
[Friend of Women: After acquiring this item, mature women who love gossip are more likely to develop a higher level of affection for the host.]
The title "scumbag" is too evil, so Ash has never used it. Besides, his stamina is already terrifying enough, far beyond what's needed, so the title has never been used.
The qualifiers preceding "friend of women"—a love of gossip and mature women—limit its applicability too much.
Since they weren't of much use, Ash used them to fuse together, pressing the confirmation button in his mind.
【…
[Ding! Fusion complete. Congratulations on obtaining the new title "Blonde Hair"!]
[Blonde Hair: After "battling" with a mature woman, her affection level will definitely increase; the more intense the battle, the greater the increase in affection!]
"Pfft, what kind of title is that?"
How did something like this, which gives off such a bad feeling, come about?
"As expected, I shouldn't have had any expectations for these features of the system!"
But Ash soon quietly adopted that title.
"Well, I was just a little curious about the effects."
I wonder if Lijia and Naz can be considered mature women.
