Pokémon Beyond the Blue

"Riolu, what's wrong with you? Isn't Yuuto our partner?"

Yuuto, who was a little out of breath from being pressed down, struggled to stand up, but Riolu didn't give him the chance at all, so he had no choice but to hold on and speak.

"What's wrong with you, Riolu? Ahem, weren't we all companions until just now? Why did you..."

Yuuto felt the force on his neck getting stronger and stronger, and his arms were perfectly restrained, so he had no choice but to ask Ikki for help with his eyes.

"Companion? Stop talking like that!" Riolu punched Yuuto in the face this time. "How can someone who is related to Team Rocket be a comrade!"

When Ikki saw the punch that Yuuto received, his heart skipped a beat, and he immediately ran over and grabbed Riolu's paw that was pressing Yuuto's neck, but when he heard the words "Team Rocket", But he hesitated.

"Is that so... Yuuto, are you from Team Rocket?"

Ikki couldn't believe that this silly older brother, whom he had known for a short time, but had a good relationship with, was actually a member of Team Rocket who could do anything.

"How is this possible! Yuuto is not from Team Rocket!"

Riolu didn't know what Ikki was thinking, but he suddenly rushed towards him, and the two of them rolled to the side.

"Cough cough...cough cough cough cough!"

His neck was pressed with such force that Yuuto almost thought he was going to die. Fortunately, Ikki stopped the tragedy in time.

"Ikki what are you doing!"

"It's Riolu who suddenly treats Yuuto like this!"

Riolu got up quickly, but Ikki thought he was going to continue attacking Yuuto, but when he turned around, he found that he was standing in front of him in a fighting posture.

"Ikki, stay away from him first!"

He felt more and more that things were developing inexplicably. Yuuto first helped him regain Riolu, and then he was knocked down by Riolu's sudden attack. Now he became Riolu as the defensive side. It was really too much. Strange.

'Is it true that Yuuto is from Team Rocket, as Riolu said? '

As soon as this idea came up, Ikki shook his head decisively and threw the idea away.

'Just like Miss Hualing said, they are all my partners. How can partners hurt each other! '

Riolu stood in front of Ikki, and when he was considering how Yuuto might attack, he was suddenly hugged tightly by Ikki behind him.

"What are you doing! That person is very dangerous!"

"Then you have to tell me what happened. I won't let you fight until I know what happened!"

"Ikki..."

Riolu looked at Ikki's clear eyes that refused to give in. He felt anxious like an ant on a hot pot, but he had no choice but to forcefully hurt Ikki.

"Riolu wants me to explain, right? Ikki, don't worry."

Ikki, who was hugging Riolu tightly, looked at Yuuto, whose face turned purple because of Riolu, with an expression of unpredictable sadness.

"But before that, I want to say a few words," Yuuto cleared his throat and said earnestly as if an elder was lecturing a younger one: "What Riolu did was a wise choice, but on the contrary, Ikki, you will only do this." At the same time, restrict the movement of both of you. If I were that guy from Delang, you two might have been seriously injured."

"Eh?! Is that so? Sorry, I didn't have time to think that much."

Ikki quickly withdrew his arm as if he was electrocuted, and looked at Riolu who was sighing sheepishly.

"I hope your explanation can convince me!"

A strong wind blew by, and the clouds completely blocked the sun. Riolu's scarlet eyes looking at Yuuto became brighter and brighter.

"Then I guess I can't convince you. Riolu is so smart that he won't believe what I say, right?" Yuuto shrugged and turned to Ikki and said, "Well Ikki, listen carefully, I Yuuto Doucai is not from Team Rocket!"

Yuuto waved vigorously and pointed at Ikki, who had a complicated expression.

"Tch, how persuasive can a speech like yours be!"

Riolu clenched his fists, wanting to use force to force Yuuto to say it - but just thinking about it, he didn't think he could fight Yuuto now, even Delang was doing that to him...

"Then let me be more specific. I am a member of a certain organization, but our organization is not an evil organization that does bad things like the Rockets. Moreover, our policies are different, and we are even in a hostile relationship. In this way Is that okay?”

"How detailed is this!"

Riolu was about to rush over and try to punch him again, but Ikki grabbed his left paw from behind.

"Riolu, although you may not believe what Yuuto says, please believe me, and please believe Yuuto, believe that he is not a bad person!"

"How come Ikki even you..."

"please!"

The current situation simply put Riolu in a dilemma.Ikki didn't know the situation, and Yuuto couldn't just leave it alone.

"Forget it, Ikki, let me tell you what happened just now." Riolu felt it was necessary to let Ikki know first.

Let’s talk about the situation.

Although Riolu was incapacitated by Delang, he was still conscious, but it was only a matter of time before he passed out. After seeing Yuuto coming over, he felt something was wrong. The two of them were talking in the forest while looking in. Go, the main content of the conversation is nothing more than: let go, leave quickly, this type of words.But it was incredible that Delang actually talked to Yuuto in a very serious tone, as if Yuuto standing opposite him was not a young man who was countless times smaller than him, but a terrifying god of death.After that, Riolu lost consciousness due to the injuries on his body. When he woke up again, he heard Yuuto talking to him in his ear. His physical strength also felt that he was recovering quickly. There was nothing abnormal except for a slight pain in his neck. .

"Ju, such a thing actually happened!"

Not to mention Ikki, even others would doubt Yuuto's identity and his position without hesitation.

"Ikki, I am definitely someone you can trust, so don't worry!"

"Damn it!" Riolu gritted his teeth, "Do you still say that now?"

"Well, I'll say it no matter how many times, because it's true."

Riolu turned to Ikki and said, "Do you still believe his words? Even if something like this happens?"

Ikki's eyes were perfectly covered by his hair, and Riolu had no idea what he was thinking.

"Why Ikki, do you still need to consider this kind of thing?"

Riolu shook Ikki's body vigorously, his heart beating extremely fast.

'Even so, do you still have to choose to believe Yuuto? '

"That's enough." Ikki knocked Riolu's claws off his shoulders and slowly stood up, so that Riolu could only look up at him, "Yuuto is a partner, and I am Won’t give in.”

"Why don't you understand yet, Yuuto..."

"Even so, I still believe him. Please don't do this again... Is that okay, Riolu?"

Ikki clenched his hands, and two drops of water fell on Riolu's face with silvery light.

'These are...tears! '

The clouds passed by, and the sun's rays filled the earth again. Of course, it also illuminated Ikki's young face.

"I believe in Yuuto, just like I believe in Riolu. Although your statements are contradictory to each other, I believe them all! We are companions! How can companions doubt each other!"

Following Ikki's words, more tears fell on Riolu's face, causing him to take a few steps back unconsciously.

"Um... I'm sorry, Ikki, I didn't mean to hide it from you. In fact, I also have a lot of difficulties..."

Yuuto didn't expect that things would develop like this. He didn't know how to comfort someone who made others cry. He could only walk over slowly, but was stopped by Riolu.

"I'll just believe what you say, but I won't allow you to get close to Ikki!"

Riolu no longer knew how much he owed Ikki. If he couldn't protect him, let alone how to explain it to Yukino, who liked him so much, he couldn't justify it based on his own conscience.

After all, although this child is not very sensible yet, he has helped him a lot, and more importantly, Ikki is his first friend after coming to this world, and he is also the person he recognizes.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to be so stubborn Riolu, but there's nothing you can do about it. You can't stop me from getting close to Ikki, at least for now."

"What do you want to do?"

Yuuto said a little embarrassedly: "When you passed out just now, I injected you with a medicine to restore your strength."

Riolu subconsciously touched the painful area on the side of his neck.

No wonder I woke up so quickly and started to regain my strength, but...

"You said I can't stop you? Even if I am defeated again, I will stop you!"

Hearing Riolu's words, Yuuto waved his hands quickly: "You misunderstood. I didn't mean to fight you. In fact, the side effect of that medicine is that it makes you sleep for a day. It's almost working now." After saying that, Yuuto Tou smiled apologetically at Riolu.

"You guy... you are so, so damnable!"

Just as Yuuto finished speaking, as if to prove his words, Riolu suddenly began to feel sleepy, and his eyes began to slowly close uncontrollably.

"Can't let you... hurt Ikki..."

Riolu used all his strength to hit Yuuto who had already walked in front of him, but this attack was like scratching an itch for Yuuto and had no effect.

Yuuto didn't care and immediately picked up Riolu who was about to faint.

Riolu felt that his consciousness was slowly disappearing. Now he was trying hard not to fall asleep, but his vision was completely blurred and he couldn't see anything clearly.

Yuuto sighed looking at Riolu like this. The latter wanted to push him away, but he had completely lost the strength to even lift his claws.

Yuuto leaned close to Riolu's drooped ear and said helplessly: "I will not hurt anyone. Just leave Ikki to me for the time being and sleep peacefully."

Although he wanted to refute him, no matter how worried he was, he could not overcome the physiological reaction. After struggling for a while, he finally fell asleep while being carried by Yuuto.
