Chapter 276 Cherry Blossom Dance · The Four Heavenly Kings of Kapu

Xia Huna’s classmate, Kapu-蝶蝶, went off to play. And he successfully used his ridiculously high Pokémon affinity to change Kapu-蝶蝶’s name to Kapu-花花… I have to say, Kapu-花花 was quite pretty.

Looking at the flower crown on Kapu-花花’s head, Xia Huna reached out and tapped Kapu-花花’s nose: “Kapu-花花 is so cute. This flower crown is a testament to our friendship, you must cherish it.”

Although Kapu-蝶蝶 liked the look, she wasn’t very happy about Xia Huna calling her Huāhuā. Seeing Kapu-蝶蝶’s slight annoyance, Xia Huna quickly put the other two flower crowns on himself and Diancie. Seeing Xia Huna’s appearance, Kapu-蝶蝶 finally calmed down.

Xia Huna and Kapu-蝶蝶 played for an afternoon. It wasn’t until evening that Kapu-蝶蝶 stood up: “Come on, I’ve had my fun, you can accept my challenge now. As for my opponent, I’ll just use her who accompanied me this afternoon.”

Xia Huna glanced at Diancie: “Come on, little princess, let’s try a Z-Move battle today.”

Diancie made a gesture for Xia Huna to lift her high. Xia Huna wagged his finger: “We’ll talk about lifting you high after the battle. Diancie, Dazzling Gleam!”

Although Xia Huna was battling Kapu-蝶蝶, the Kapu-蝶蝶 he had been playing happily with didn't play fair and started with Guardian of Alola right off the bat.

After more than half an hour, Xia Huna lay exhausted on the beach, both physically and mentally: “People say the pinker you wear, the harder you hit. It’s true. Seeing such a cute Kapu-蝶蝶 fight so fiercely. Diancie, we’re not friends with Kapu-蝶蝶 anymore, right?”

Diancie lay on the beach with Xia Huna. Hearing this, she just nodded lightly: “Mm, you’re right. If you’re so hard on your friends, you might as well just win easily against me.”

Kapu-蝶蝶 floated above Xia Huna and Diancie, scattering restorative scales. Xia Huna was completely sprawled on the beach: “This feels so good, thank you, Kapu-蝶蝶.”

After finishing healing Xia Huna, Kapu-蝶蝶 returned to the ground: “Let’s go, we still have more to play.”

Xia Huna frowned: “Forget it, after playing, we’ll battle again? I can’t take it anymore, it’s not my body that’s tired, it’s my mind.”

Kapu-蝶蝶 drew in the sand with her finger: “How about I take you to meet the other two guardian deities, Kapu-哞哞 and Kapu-鳍鳍? I promise I won’t battle you. We’re friends.”

Hearing that Kapu-蝶蝶 wanted to take him to meet the other two Kapus, Xia Huna stood up: “Alright, let’s go meet the other two. Diancie, you go back for now.”

Diancie turned her head: You still owe me a lift! I’m not going back into the ball!

Xia Huna had no choice but to lift Diancie with his hands, and Kapu-蝶蝶, who was also curious, enjoyed the service. Xia Huna looked at Diancie, who happily returned to her ball: “You’re getting more and more clingy.”

After recalling Diancie, Xia Huna followed Kapu-蝶蝶 to meet Kapu-哞哞. Kapu-哞哞 was basking in the moonlight on the grassland. Seeing Kapu-蝶蝶 arrive, she lazily glanced over: “Die-die, you brought a friend? How about it, want to lie down with me for a bit?” As she spoke, Kapu-哞哞 moved aside, as if to make space for Xia Huna.

Xia Huna thought for a moment. He had just gotten up and walked a couple of steps, only to lie down again? But the grass felt quite comfortable.

Xia Huna took a couple of steps and lay down right next to Kapu-哞哞: “Moo-moo, lying here like this is indeed very comfortable. You truly are a guardian deity who knows how to enjoy herself.”

Kapu-哞哞 nodded and continued to lie there without a word. Xia Huna felt a wave of drowsiness as he felt the breeze. Just as Xia Huna was about to tell Kapu-哞哞 that he couldn’t hold on any longer and needed to sleep, Kapu-哞哞 surprisingly got up from the grass: “I know what you two want, come on, let’s battle!”

Xia Huna, groggy and sleepy, instinctively jumped up at the word “battle”: “Battle? Okay.”

He casually grabbed a Poké Ball and threw it out. A Shelmet, lying flat like a salted fish, appeared before Kapu-哞哞. Looking at the enormous Kapu-哞哞, Shelmet looked at Xia Huna in terror: What is this? Why am I supposed to deal with such a difficult Pokémon? I want to lie flat.

Shelmet had no desire to fight Kapu-哞哞 and remained lying on the grass, refusing to get up. Although Kapu-哞哞 liked Shelmet’s laid-back attitude, she still hit Shelmet very hard. Reading Network 138

Seeing Guardian of Alola for the third time, Xia Huna was unfazed: “It’s just a Z-Move, isn’t it? Guardian of Alola is Normal type, but your opponent is Shedinja! Let me hit you however you want!”

The system looked at Xia Huna’s excited expression: “No, host, you remembered wrong. Guardian of Alola is Fairy type, not Normal type.”

“No big deal, it’s still zero anyway for Fairy type.”

Guardian of Alola punched Shelmet on the head. Shelmet shook its head, the halo above its head flickered twice, and then it stared blankly at Kapu-哞哞. Xia Huna’s smile widened: “System, does Kapu-哞哞 have a way to attack Shedinja?”

“Yes, it has five weaknesses. Look, here it comes.”

As soon as the words fell, Shelmet collapsed on the ground. Xia Huna sighed, and just as he was about to recall Shelmet, Kapu-哞哞 blocked him: “I quite like this guy. You guys can leave him here.”

And so, Xia Huna left Shelmet to Kapu-哞哞 and followed Kapu-蝶蝶 to meet the last guardian deity: Kapu-鳍鳍.

On the way, Xia Huna took out his Pokédex: “Huh? So Kapu’s Pú is the Pú from Púyù?”

The system asked back: “No, didn’t you make this Pokédex? Did you misspell a character?”

“Not at all, I’m only responsible for the voiceovers. This is the first time I’ve known Kapu-鸣鸣 is this Pú.”

The system furtively glanced at Kapu-蝶蝶 floating beside them: “So, which Pú did you think it was all along? It couldn’t be the Pú from a flipper, could it?”

Xia Huna shook his head: “No, I didn’t think of it as a flipper’s Pú. I always, always thought it was the Pú with the ‘mouth’ radical.”

The system couldn’t help but burst out laughing: “That’s hilarious! Yours is too ridiculous. The one with the ‘foot’ radical and three dots of water is okay, at least someone would like it. This onomatopoeia with the ‘mouth’ radical clearly shows you’re trying to mess with things. Don’t let them know about this, or you might not get to use Z-Moves in your next life.”

Xia Huna nodded: “Ah, we’re here. So it should be Kapu-鳍鳍 next. I say, Die-die, Kapu-鳍鳍 isn’t going to battle me too, is he? That would be too much.”

Kapu-蝶蝶 didn’t answer, but Kapu-鳍鳍’s voice came from behind him: “Not necessarily, maybe I won’t battle.”

Xia Huna turned around: “Why did Kapu-鳍鳍 appear behind me?”

Kapu-鳍鳍 sighed: “Three of them. Three Guardian of Alola have appeared in this space within a day. Do you think I’m stupid?”

Xia Huna was a bit embarrassed. All three Guardian of Alola had targeted his Pokémon, and it was three guardian deities against three Pokémon.

Kapu-鳍鳍 glanced at Xia Huna: “I thought something had happened. So it’s you. Let’s battle!”

“What? Why the sudden change of heart?”

Xia Huna, to his dismay, had to battle Kapu-鳍鳍 before they could communicate. As expected, Kapu-鳍鳍, “true to his word,” used a fourth Guardian of Alola on the Breloom Xia Huna sent out.

Xia Huna sat on the ground, looking dejected. He had used four Pokémon today to battle four guardian deities, and he had lost all four battles without winning a single one.

The system comforted Xia Huna: “Don’t be so discouraged. Look at it from another angle, you’ve achieved a ‘Big Four Winds’ with your hand.”

Xia Huna shooed the system away: “Get lost, is that how ‘Big Four Winds’ is achieved? If you really want to explain it, it should be me being back-stabbed and hitting a ‘Big Four Winds’.”

Two people who knew nothing about Mahjong sat there discussing Mahjong, completely ignoring Kapu-蝶蝶 and Kapu-鳍鳍 beside them. Finally, the two Kapus started fighting and threw him into the sea, bringing him back to his senses.

Kapu-蝶蝶 looked at the drenched Xia Huna: “Alright, we’ve all four met you. How do you feel?”

Xia Huna shrugged. He didn’t feel any particular way. He had met four strangers and gotten beaten up four times. If he had gotten even a little benefit, he would have accepted it, but he hadn’t gained anything at all.

Kapu-蝶蝶 pointed into the forest: “Stay with me tonight. I’ll help you get the Z-Crystal tomorrow. Mew told me you still have some time, so don’t rush too much.”

As she spoke, Kapu-蝶蝶 curled up and returned to Xia Huna’s arms: “Let’s go, I’ll show you the way.”

Under Kapu-蝶蝶’s guidance, Xia Huna arrived at the cave where Kapu-蝶蝶 lived. Xia Huna asked: “You live here?”

“Yes, it’s very cozy, isn’t it?”

Xia Huna nodded. Although it was a cave, with Kapu-蝶蝶’s decoration, it indeed felt like a cozy little home. Xia Huna lay on a bed made of flower petals: “Goodnight, Die-die.”

Night passed. On the second day of his life in the space, Xia Huna looked at Kapu-蝶蝶 with a crestfallen face: “Die-die, you’re a bad Pokémon! Didn’t you promise to help me get the Z-Crystal?”

Kapu-蝶蝶 sat beside Kapu-鸣鸣, who was resting: “Yes, I am helping you.”

Xia Huna pointed at the four Pokémon surrounding him: “Is ganging up on me with four Pokémon considered helping?”
