Chapter 134:Celebi of Time and Space Travel, Past and Future!

Celebi of Time and Space Travel, Past and Future!

“Is that really Celebi?”

Natsume noticed that this Celebi was in poor condition.

Its body looked like it had been drained of moisture, resembling a dead tree.

Natsume quickly used Eternity Power and began to heal Celebi’s body.

Name: Celebi
Type: Psychic/Grass
Level: 1v64
Ability: Natural Cure
Individual Values: HP 31, Attack 31, Defense 31, Special Attack 31, Special Defense 31, Speed 31
Moves: Confusion, Heal Bell, Natural Gift, Future Sight
Potential: Godly Level

Notice: Celebi has been injured at its life source; please provide immediate assistance.

This Celebi's level is not very high.

Level 64 is actually quite low for a legendary Pokémon.

However, that is normal.

Celebi has a group, and their numbers are not too few compared to other mythical Pokémon.

After all, some people have even discovered shiny Celebi.

But people do not know how Celebi breeds.

Some say Celebi is a Pokémon nurtured by the forest.

There are legends that Celebi will place Pokémon eggs from the future into the forest.

The Pokémon eggs, brought from the future to a peaceful time, will hatch into Celebi after being nurtured by the forest.

Once Celebi is born from the forest, it will begin to travel through time.

During this process, it will exercise and gradually grow stronger.

Natsume thought that this Celebi might actually be from the past.

It had just hatched and encountered disaster during its growth.

As for why it appeared before him, it might be because it saw that he would save its future.

Of course, this is just Natsume's speculation.

But…

“This is a bit troublesome.”

Natsume looked worriedly at the Celebi in his arms.

Its injuries were severe.

It seemed it wouldn’t be easy to completely heal it.

But then, something miraculous happened.

“Celebi.”

Celebi murmured a weak cry.

Its dry lips became moist.

Natsume’s Eternity Power allowed Celebi to regain some energy.

“Celebi…”

Celebi grasped Natsume’s wrist.

Natsume: “?”

It seemed Celebi was trying to say something to him.

But the voice was too faint.

Natsume couldn’t hear clearly.

Gardevoir’s expression as it looked at Celebi suddenly turned a bit peculiar.

Rustle~

The leaves in the forest made a rustling sound.

They were swaying.

The changes in the forest drew Natsume’s attention.

The wild grass and flowers began to emit a faint glow.

Under Natsume’s feet, the earth glowed with green waves.

The forest had perceived the needs of Natsume and Celebi.

Natsume’s body resonated with the forest!

Natsume now felt as if the forest was using a supportive move on him.

A surge of life energy flowed into Natsume from the forest, then into Celebi’s body.

Like the one who possesses Eternity Power, Celebi too is a child of the forest.

At this moment, Natsume and Celebi were enveloped in this glow together.

“Eevee?”

Eevee suddenly noticed that this energy seemed to be nourishing its own body as well.

Eevee’s body began to glow.

“Serperior~”

Serperior also felt a warm sensation spreading through its body.

The gathering life energy was surging into its body.

“Celebi, it’s Celebi.”

Above the treehouse, Yuuji stared blankly at the Celebi in Natsume’s arms.

He excitedly ran forward.

“Celebi, is it really you?”

Serperior gave Yuuji an indifferent glance.

Looking at Serperior beside Natsume, Yuuji suddenly felt as if he couldn’t control his own body.

An indescribable fear rose from deep within.

Yuuji froze in place.

“Dragonite~”

Dragonite and Arcanine trotted over.

They curiously looked at the green Celebi in Natsume's hands.

“Celebi~”

A clear voice suddenly rang from within Natsume's arms.

Celebi slowly opened its eyes.

Celebi’s eyes were clear and pure.

Its blue eyes shone bright like the sky.

Notice: You have received the forest's blessing. Your Psychic level has increased to level 60.

Notice: Your Eevee absorbed the forest's energy, raising its individual value for HP to 31.

Leafeon has learned new moves: Sunny Day, Swords Dance, Leaf Blade, Mega Drain.

Serperior absorbed some of the forest's energy, raising its level to 75.

“Leafeon!”

Eevee evolved into Leafeon.

Its body turned brown, and its tail and ears resembled flowing leaves.

Leafeon lifted its feet to look at its body.

It felt its strength had suddenly increased considerably.

“Serperior~”

Serperior felt the same way.

Dragonite's current level was only 74, but now Serperior’s level was 75, surpassing Dragonite.

“Celebi~”

Celebi flew up from Natsume's arms.

It looked at Natsume and the Pokémon beside him, displaying a happy expression.

“Celebi~”

Celebi affectionately nuzzled Natsume's cheek.

Though Natsume still didn’t know what was happening or what the situation with this Celebi was, he was very pleased to be liked so much by a Pokémon like Celebi.

Natsume thought: I guess I have a knack for attracting legendary Pokémon.

However, the important thing now was to ask what exactly had happened to this Celebi.

Natsume looked at Celebi with a puzzled expression and asked, “Celebi, what happened to you?”

“Celebi~”

Celebi looked toward Yuuji.

“Celebi~”

Celebi gave Yuuji a thumbs up.

Hikari-jō, I saved it!

Yuuji suddenly knelt down, gazing at Celebi.

Natsume looked at this middle-aged man in surprise.

He started crying uncontrollably.

“Celebi, I finally found you!”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”

Natsume stared blankly at the crying Yuuji and Celebi.

So what exactly happened?

“Chesnaught.”

Chesnaught squatted down, hugging its Trainer and crying along with him.

“Celebi.”

Celebi scratched its head, feeling a bit at a loss.

Rustle~

From the bushes, a Teddiursa with a crescent moon on its head peeked out.

It curiously looked at everything around.

Teddiursa originally wanted to come to Oranguru's cabin to rest for a while.

But it seemed like there were a lot of people.

“Teddiursa~”

Teddiursa decided to leave.

“Celebi.”

Celebi suddenly noticed the Teddiursa.

“Celebi~”

Celebi appeared next to the Teddiursa.

“Teddiursa?”

Celebi examined the Teddiursa’s body and then made a small gesture to say hello.

“Celebi~”

Celebi smiled inexplicably.

“Teddiursa?”

Teddiursa looked at Celebi with confusion.

I’m just a Teddiursa, of course I'm this small.

At that moment, Oranguru said, “Everyone, let’s all go inside.”

Natsume greeted Oranguru: “Long time no see, Oranguru.”

“I brought a lot of things for you.”

Inside Oranguru’s treehouse.

Once Natsume and Dragonite all came in, the treehouse felt much more crowded.

Though it was cramped, it was quite lively.

Celebi was sitting on Natsume's shoulder, holding a green bamboo cup.

Yuki looked at Natsume and said, “Celebi really likes you.”

Natsume replied, “Maybe it’s because I’ve received the blessing of the forest.”

“Though it sounds boastful, many Pokémon living in the forest really like me.”

Gulp, gulp~

“Celebi~”

Celebi poured all the fruit tea Oranguru gave it into its belly.

Celebi smacked its lips and looked at Dragonite, who was sitting on the ground.

“Celebi~”

Celebi said: I want to eat Springy Mushroom.

Dragonite's eyes lit up.

This Celebi has taste.

“Dragonite~”

Dragonite happily opened Natsume's backpack and took out the Springy Mushroom it had stored.

Celebi flew from Natsume's shoulder to Dragonite's legs.

It comfortably leaned against Dragonite's belly, receiving the Springy Mushroom Dragonite offered.

Watching this scene, Natsume thought: This Celebi is a bit too friendly.

At that moment, Yuki asked, “Dad, what happened between you and Celebi years ago?”

Natsume listened to Yuki's question and turned to look at the middle-aged man in front of him.

“This goes back ten years.”

“But for Celebi, it should still feel like a recent event.”

“Seeing it here now, I finally understand.”

“Celebi must have traveled through time and space to arrive in the present.”

“No wonder I couldn’t find it for so long.”

Yuuji sighed as he spoke.

He looked at Celebi and began to recount his story with it.

“Ten years ago, I was patrolling my territory.”

“Then, I heard the voice of the forest.”

“When you hear the whispers of the forest, stand still and be careful, for that’s Celebi traveling through time and space.”

“It comes from the future or the past to the present.”

“If you move around carelessly, you could easily get lost in time.”

“This is a notice in our ranger code.”

Yuuji's voice was magnetic, painting a vivid picture.

Ten years ago, Towada Lake.

“This is…”

Yuuji looked around in surprise at the changes.

Circles of green light echoed in that place.

In the sky, the space rippled like a calm water surface.

“Celebi~”

Celebi appeared from the time ripple.

“Celebi?!”

Yuuji looked at Celebi in shock.

“Celebi~”

Celebi saw Yuuji.

It greeted Yuuji friendly and then left.

“Gah.”

Suddenly, a panicked cry for help from a Pokémon echoed nearby.

“Chesnaught, let’s hurry.”

Yuuji quickly ran with his Chesnaught.

In the river water, a Murkrow was flapping its wings.

Murkrow appeared to be seriously injured.

Its wings were broken, unable to escape the rushing waters.

Yuuji immediately said, “Chesnaught, use Vine Whip!”

“Chesnaught~”

Chesnaught stretched out its hand, and green vines rapidly spread out, rescuing Murkrow.

“Are you alright, Murkrow?”

Yuuji asked with concern.

“Murkrow.”

Murkrow shook its feathers, the river water soaking its body.

Water droplets splashed in all directions from its feathers.

“Celebi~”

The Celebi that had already left flew back.

It reached out and gently tapped Murkrow's wing.

Life Dew dropped down.

Murkrow's wing was healed.

“Here, let me dry your feathers.”

Yuuji used a towel to dry Murkrow's feathers.

Celebi found some Berries to share with Murkrow and Yuuji.

“Thank you, Celebi.”

Yuuji looked at Celebi with curiosity and asked, “Where are you from?”

Yuuji set up a simple camp on the riverbank.

In the center of the camp, a fire was burning.

On the fire, something was being heated.

“Celebi~”

Celebi told Yuuji that it was a Pokémon from the future.

It was currently traveling through time and space.

It was fascinating; even though Celebi was speaking in Pokémon language, Yuuji could understand what Celebi meant.

“Time travel, huh? That must be an amazing experience.”

“Celebi~”

Celebi sat on a dead tree by the riverbank, swinging its short legs, happily enjoying the Berries.

“Celebi, do you know what my future looks like?”

Yuuji started talking about his family with Celebi.

“I have a daughter, but I’m really worried about whether I can take good care of her.”

“And also, will I continue to work in this profession in the future?”

Celebi looked at Yuuji and asked, “Celebi?”

Are you sure you want to know about your future?

“Um…”

Yuuji thought for a moment and asked, “If I know my future, will it have any bad consequences?”

Celebi nodded.

“Celebi~”

Celebi explained that the future isn’t predetermined until it happens.

There are countless possibilities for the future.

What I see as the future may not be the future you will experience.

Because time can change.

However, changing the future or the past isn’t an easy task.

And if you want to change the future, the outcome may not necessarily be what you desire.

Someone always has to pay a price in the process.

“Celebi.”

Celebi also mentioned that its father doesn’t allow it to change the future casually.

Otherwise, it would get scolded.

Celebi's father said, “If Celebi enjoys time traveling, then just be a simple time traveler.”

If something were to really happen, Celebi’s companions and family would handle it.

Yuuji was a bit surprised: “Do you have a lot of family?”

Celebi smiled and said that of course, it had many family members.

And they were all very powerful.

Yuuji thought: It seems there are many Celebi in this world.

“Well, in that case...”

Yuuji said, “I think I’ll pass on knowing my future.”

“Life should have a bit of surprise.”

“It’s because we look forward to what tomorrow will bring that we work hard to live today.”

“Celebi~”

Celebi said that its father also said the same.

Yuuji chuckled: “It seems like I get along pretty well with your dad.”

“This is the story of how I met Celebi.”

Yuuji looked at Natsume and the others inside Oranguru’s treehouse and said, “The story is quite ordinary.”

“There aren’t any dangerous experiences.”

“We just helped a Murkrow that fell into the water.”

Yuki suddenly asked curiously, “You’re not talking about Honchkrow, are you?”

Yuuji smiled and nodded: “That’s right, it’s Honchkrow.”

“Honchkrow, come on out.”

As Yuuji said this, he took out a Poké Ball and released Honchkrow.

“Honchkrow~”

Honchkrow spread its wings.

“Teddiursa!”

However, as soon as its wings opened a bit, it bumped into the Teddiursa that was already sitting in the corner.

Teddiursa let out an annoyed cry at Honchkrow.

At that moment, it was sharing honey from its palm with the now-awake Pikachu.

“Honchkrow.”

Honchkrow helplessly folded its wings back in.

Seeing this, Natsume teasingly looked at Oranguru and said, “Looks like you need an expansion here.”

Oranguru explained, “Usually, we don’t have this many people and Pokémon at once.”

“Celebi, do you remember it?”

“This is the Murkrow we rescued together back then.”

“Honchkrow~”

Honchkrow recognized Celebi.

Celebi gestured to indicate Honchkrow’s height.

“Celebi~”

Celebi said that Murkrow has grown this big, how impressive!

Yuuji laughed and said, “Because it has already evolved!”
