In the following days, the Giant Shark drifted along the waters back to the Hoenn region.
They encountered some ships, but considering the lack of manpower, they did not go forward to plunder and kill.
Everyone on the Giant Shark was immersed in the joy of wealth and victory.
As for the deaths of their companions, they had long been forgotten.
On the vast deck, Hei Yu was directing the Pokémon's training.
"Corphish, carefully feel the power of water, try to gather them."
Hei Yu looked at Corphish with a solemn expression, as more and more water gathered around Corphish's body.
Hei Yu instantly said, "Now! Use Water Pulse!" (Aqua Jet)
Corphish jumped up, its small body, enveloped in water, instantly rushed towards the wooden target, carrying a surging momentum!
"Splat~"
The wooden target shattered!
Corphish's six nimble little feet landed steadily.
"Not bad, not bad, Corphish, you've finally mastered Water Pulse."
Hei Yu stepped forward, continuously praising it.
Among the three Pokémon, Corphish had made the most progress these days, reaching level 19, which of course was inseparable from the large investment of resources.
To train its inherited Dragon Dance, Hei Yu even shamelessly asked Mrs. Meta, his teacher, for a can of Seadra blood.
Seadra is also a sub-Dragon species, and its blood contains some Dragon factors, which can stimulate Corphish's sensitivity to Dragon energy.
But the effect was not satisfactory.
Dragon Dance is still elusive, so he switched to another inherited skill, Water Pulse.
Carvanha's training focused on its Speed Boost ability.
Now, after training, it can accelerate very well at will, although Carvanha's stamina is rapidly consumed during acceleration, what it gains in return is lightning-fast speed!
Although it's a bit exaggerated, in swimming speed competitions of the same level, Carvanha is definitely among the best.
And Spearow has also adapted well to the wind direction at sea, capable of good reconnaissance within one kilometer, and its level is also slowly increasing.
"Although the speed of progress is already very fast, it's still not enough.
There are countless dangers in the sea; beneath the seemingly calm surface, the seabed is turbulent."
Hei Yu leaned on the ship's railing; the sky-blue sea was eerily quiet, and no one could know how many dangers lurked beneath the surface.
"Learning how to make energy cubes should also be put on the agenda."
Hei Yu had already made up his mind.
energy cubes!
The most magical creation in this world, an energy body made by mixing some of the most basic fruits and rare medicinal materials.
It can geometrically amplify ordinary energy, containing endless nutrients, and has miraculous effects on Pokémon's growth!
"Making energy cubes is a great test of one's mental focus, requiring time and weight to be controlled to a thousandth of a gram.
Therefore, continuous production is needed to gain experience."
Mrs. Meta took out a fruit and put it into the small machine in front of her, her phoenix eyes staring intently at the data above.
Her expression was serious, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
Hei Yu stood obediently to the side, carefully listening to his teacher's instruction.
Every Breeder who can make energy cubes is a money-making machine, just like the energy cube that is about to form in front of her.
What was originally just ordinary berries worth dozens of alliance coins instantly produced five yellow energy cubes, each worth over a thousand alliance coins!
It was simply exorbitant profit!
Hei Yu's eyes were burning with eagerness.
If he could also learn to make them, he would no longer have to worry about breeding funds.
"No wonder I couldn't buy any books about Breeders on the market before.
With such profits, how could those aristocratic families be willing to let commoners access them?"
A hint of distortion flashed in Hei Yu's eyes, as he once again understood the distorted social structure of this world.
"Try it, this is an energy cube I made with Phoenix Pear Fruit, it can enhance a Pokémon's physical strength."
Mrs. Meta took off her gloves and carefully used tweezers to pick out the small energy cube.
Its small size, yet it contained immense nutrition and energy.
"Hehe!!"
Hei Yu released Corphish.
Corphish, emerging from its Poké Ball, smelled the fragrant scent in the air and was instantly enticed.
It looked at the energy cube in the machine with an infatuated expression.
Mrs. Meta, seeing Corphish's greedy little look, was also filled with affection for Pokémon.
"Come on~~"
The yellow energy cube was still in the air when it was caught by Corphish's pincers and then smoothly tossed into its mouth.
"Hehe!!"
Corphish instantly had an expression of enjoyment, its eyes unconsciously narrowing, emitting a comfortable sound.
"From now on, this energy cube making machine is yours.
You can practice more when you have nothing to do, and just take the materials directly from the warehouse."
Mrs. Meta then walked out of the room, not forgetting to instruct Hei Yu before leaving.
"Oh, and special effect energy cubes like this are too difficult.
You can start by trying the most basic ones."
Hei Yu pulled out Mrs. Meta's handwritten notebook from his Arms, which contained countless Breeder knowledge.
And dozens of energy cube recipes!
This included the most basic ones for restoring stamina and healing injuries, as well as special recipes like the one just mentioned for enhancing Pokémon's physical strength.
"This, this is!!"
Hei Yu's expression was excited.
The last recipe clearly stated the effect: long-term consumption can improve a Pokémon's potential.
But when Hei Yu looked at the hundreds of ingredients listed afterwards, his originally excited expression instantly turned speechless.
Of those hundreds of ingredients, he only recognized a few dozen; he had never even heard of the rest.
"Alas, the path of a Breeder is long and arduous," Hei Yu couldn't help but sigh.
And Corphish looked up, gazing pitifully at its master, its pincers constantly gesturing towards the energy cube on the table.
Xia Xia wants to eat energy cubes~~~
.........
In the following days, Hei Yu devoted himself wholeheartedly to making energy cubes, experiencing thousands of failures.
No wonder every Breeder who can make energy cubes is so popular and respected.
Hei Yu finally understood now, looking at the small mountain of waste piled in the corner, and the small black lump on the table that finally looked somewhat similar to an energy cube.
Hei Yu couldn't help but exclaim, "No wonder teacher said that besides talent, the most important thing is perseverance.
I wonder how many failures teacher went through before succeeding."
Somewhat numbly, he placed another berry, and Hei Yu began to operate the small energy cube maker in front of him, his fingers constantly moving.
The movements were already etched in his mind; thousands of experiences had made him incredibly proficient.
As the machine operated, Hei Yu once again concentrated, staring intently at the small rotating needle above.
Time slowly passed, and beads of sweat gradually began to appear on his forehead, dripping onto the table.
At a certain moment, Hei Yu flicked his finger slightly.
Ding~
A strange sound, and joy finally appeared in Hei Yu's tired eyes!
Immediately after, a pure white energy cube slowly appeared in his palm, with a slight warmth emanating from it.
Holding it up to the light, he could clearly see the pure white energy cube, with a jelly-like substance inside, a smooth exterior, and a faint, fresh scent.
A basic universal energy cube for restoring stamina.
