"Haha, I knew you two wouldn't get into trouble so easily. Really, why didn't you answer when I called you just now!"
Although Meow Meow was complaining about the two of them, no one knew how happy he was in his heart. Before he could finish his words, the man...the cat had already stood next to Kojiro.
He pulled Kojiro out first, and then the two of them pulled out Musashi who had fallen into a coma. By the way, because the incident happened suddenly, Guo Ran Weng didn't have time to activate the Mirror Coat move, so he relied on his own blood bar to block this move, but now he was also seriously injured and fell to the ground beside him.
"Huh~, Musashi is really something. She kept saying she wanted to lose weight, but she still gained more and more weight. I almost couldn't protect her just now, but even so, she was still knocked unconscious by the shock wave."
Kojiro sat down on the ground, not caring at all how dirty the ground was. He had just crawled out of underground anyway, so it would be almost as dirty as it could be.
It turns out that the reason why Kojiro stayed with Musashi instead of separating with Meowth was because Kojiro found that Musashi could not withstand the next shock wave at all, so he gritted his teeth and rushed over to act as a meat shield. Although he suffered a lot, he achieved his goal.
"So, have we escaped this disaster?" Seeing Kojiro sitting on the ground, Meow Meow also sat down and began to breathe heavily. What happened just now had consumed a lot of his energy, so he would like to take a rest now.
But Miaomiao suddenly thought of something. It seemed that they were not completely safe yet. Who knew when Gongsun Yan would come to kill them.
Thinking of this, Kojiro and Meowth looked at each other, then jumped up from the ground as if their butts were on fire. They first took out the Poké Ball of Goreng from Musashi's arms, put Goreng away, and then the two of them carried Musashi and ran away.
Chapter 41: Team Rocket Undergoes Special Training
Kojiro and Meowth obviously didn't know that Gongsun Yan was going to let them go, so they didn't even dare to breathe and ran out of Pallet Town carrying Musashi.
Should we say that the Rocket Team's trio has amazing potential or something else? Kojiro and Meowth, two almost half-crippled guys, with Musashi as a burden, actually ran from Pallet Town to Tokiwa City within three hours and hid in the Rocket Team's secret base.
Although the entire Tokiwa City was thoroughly investigated after Sakaki's identity was exposed, and many bases of Team Rocket were found, this was the territory that Sakaki had managed for many years, and there were still one or two places that survived and were provided to the three members of Team Rocket.
"We can finally take a break here. This is our first mission, and we failed. How can we explain this to Boss Sakaki?"
Kojiro and Meowth collapsed on the sofa in the base. It took them a long time to regain the strength to speak, but the first sentence Meowth said made the atmosphere freeze again.
"We can't help it. Boss Sakaki should be able to understand us. After all, our opponent is Gongsun Yan. I didn't expect that the little brat is so difficult to deal with, and the little brat number three is even more difficult to deal with."
Kojiro's expression changed for a long time, and countless excuses flashed through his mind. Finally, he sighed heavily, gave up all ideas of shirking responsibility, and decisively chose to admit his mistake.
After hearing what Kojiro said, Meow Meow was about to try to persuade him, but in the end she said nothing. She also sighed and collapsed on the sofa, gasping for breath.
Kojiro and Meowth were lying on the sofa to rest. Musashi had not yet woken up from his coma and was put on the bed beside him by Kojiro to rest. The room became quiet again.
"The boss already knows your situation and doesn't blame you. He just told you to think twice before doing anything in the future and not to make such a low-level mistake again."
A voice suddenly appeared in the originally silent room. Kojiro and Meowth, who had originally looked indifferent, immediately changed their expressions. They turned over and hid in the shadow of the sofa, looking around the room vigilantly.
Not only Kojiro and Meowth became alert, but Musashi on the bed also suddenly opened her eyes. Although she woke up, she was unable to get up as her body was far from recovered. However, she grabbed the Poké Ball beside her and became alert.
"Don't look at me. If I wanted to do something to you, I would have been killed when you first entered the room." The inconspicuous female secretary beside Sakaki walked out from the shadows of the room.
"Mantori? Why are you here?" Kojiro frowned. Even though he saw an acquaintance, he did not let his guard down. Instead, his body became even more tense.
Kojiro does know Manatori, and Musashi actually knows each other as well, because they are classmates in the same Rocket Team training team. However, Manatori is the one who is doing the best among them, and became Sakaki's secretary right after graduation.
"The boss had already guessed that your operation would fail, so he sent me to pick you up." Manatori explained his purpose to Kojiro and the others with an expressionless face.
However, she still had some reservations. The reason why she stayed in Tokiwa City instead of going to Pallet Town with Kojiro and the other two was not only for safety reasons, but also because of a test.
Sakaki actually said, "It would be best if the three of them completed the mission. If they didn't, if they returned to the base, then take them away. If they didn't come back...then you come back by yourself. Team Rocket doesn't need waste."
That's why Manatori reminded them that she would only wait here for half a day. If the three members of Team Rocket did not come back within half a day, she would remove their names and return to Sakaki herself.
As for why Manato knew that the plan of the three members of Team Rocket had failed, Rayquaza's move just now made quite a noise. Gongsun Yan had no intention of keeping a low profile. This was also to deter those guys who were ready to make a move and let them know that they could not come to the Oak Laboratory or they would die.
"As for the strength of the three of you, the boss has prepared special training for you, which will begin after we return to the headquarters."
Manatori obviously had no intention of clearing up the confusion for Kojiro and the others. After announcing Sakaki's orders, he turned and left. The car sent by the headquarters was already waiting outside.
The three members of Team Rocket in the room looked at each other and found that everyone's eyes were full of confusion, but there was also a hint of surprise. They knew that after they returned this time, their strength would undergo a huge change.
..........................................................................................
"Ms. Joy, are these Pokémon okay?" Gongsun Yan no longer had the decisive look he had before. Instead, he looked as nervous as a husband waiting outside the ward while his wife is giving birth.
"Don't worry, they are all fine. They just haven't eaten anything for a while, so their bodies are a little overdrawn. They just need a little rest." Miss Joy said to Gongsun Yan very gently, with admiration in her eyes.
Miss Joy is a person known for her gentleness. Her love for Pokémon is definitely no less than anyone else's. Even the Pokémon who are cadres in some villain organizations will be timid when facing Miss Joy.
In fact, the Pokémon in the hands of the villain organization members are not bad in nature. They just habitually obey the orders of their trainers. That is not called bad, it can only be called loyalty, so they are unwilling to attack the gentle Miss Joy.
Miss Joy, who possesses such noble character, naturally admires people who also love Pokémon the most, and Gongsun Yan is such a person.
With Miss Joy's keen eyesight, she could naturally see that Gongsun Yan's worry was genuine and not false at all. He was really worried about the safety of those Pokémon, which was very rare.
You have to know that among the Pokémon captured by Team Rocket, many of them have trainers. It is actually useless for Gongsun Yan to improve their favorability. After all, they will not follow Gongsun Yan.
You have to know that the reason why many people are so active in helping Pokémon is that many of them do so in order to improve the other party's favorability so that when they leave, the other party will be willing to follow them. Even if their original intention is not to do so, there will be more or less such an idea in their hearts.
But no matter how Miss Joy observed, there was not a trace of greed in Gongsun Yan's eyes, only openness.
Chapter 42: Getting Ready to Go
"Phew, that's good, that's good, Miss Joy, if these Pokémon need any supplements, just tell me, I'll take care of it all. I must use the best, even the most affordable ones." Gongsun Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said seriously.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Miss Joy said to Gongsun Yan with a smile, and as she spoke she looked at Gongsun Yan. Her gaze stayed on Gongsun Yan's handsome face for a while, and a hint of regret flashed in her eyes.
"What a pity, the child is still too young, otherwise... hehehe!" A certain nymphomaniac Miss Joy started fantasizing in her heart.
Gongsun Yan obviously didn't expect that the Miss Joy, who was so radiant with holy light and gentle and charming, would have such unhealthy or un-Miss Joy thoughts in her mind.
This was also because Gongsun Yan did not understand himself. He did not know how popular a young man like him was, who was rich, handsome, kind-hearted, and well-educated. Even Miss Joy, the dream lover of all trainers, could not control herself.
"Well, if everything is alright here, I'll run first... No, I'll leave first. My girlfriend is waiting for me there. Goodbye, Miss Joey!"
Gongsun Yan suddenly felt that if he continued to stay, Lillie would soon have an extra hatchet in her hand. Although he did not have the A-level intuition of a certain Sargeras, Gongsun Yan still had some sense of such situations that concerned his life and death, otherwise he might have died in the Alola region.
Don't forget, Gongsun Yan had been staying in the Alola region with Liliae before, especially during the time when Moon crawled out of Lusamine's bed, Gongsun Yan and Liliae almost traveled through the entire Alola region.
What is the most common thing in Alola? Of course, it is the beach. What is the most common thing on the beach? Sand Eater: Yes, it must be me (not). Of course, it is men and women in swimsuits.
That scene, that evil, that size, Wuhu~, Gongsun Yan couldn't control himself just by thinking about it, especially the people in the Alola region, they were very passionate and unrestrained, but also very thrifty, the fabric of their clothes was also very economical, you should know what that means.
However, apart from feasting his eyes at the beginning, Gongsun Yan could only watch secretly afterwards. After all, he would go to the beach, and Liliae would definitely be with him, and occasionally Mao and others would come over to play together.
After Lillie confirmed her feelings with Gongsun Yan, she became like a little tiger protecting its food. Whenever Gongsun Yan showed lustful eyes to other people, she would get jealous and her face would puff up like a little bun.
Gongsun Yan understood this very well. After all, it was normal for Lillie to be afraid that a good man like him, who was unique and rare in the world, would be deceived by a vixen. Just like he would be jealous if Lillie was stared at by a man.
Then, Gongsun Yan would not keep his eyes on other people in front of Liliae, and would always act like a gentleman in front of other girls. After all, Cheng Ge's fate always reminded Gongsun Yan, and he didn't want to take a journey to be beheaded.
But I have to say that Mao and Shui Lian look pretty good in their swimsuits. Because Lillie trusts her besties very much, Gongsun Yan doesn't feel that they are dangerous when looking at them, so Gongsun Yan can be said to have feasted his eyes.
But Liliae's appearance is the best among them, so Gongsun Yan's eyes have always been on Liliae. This is also the reason why Gongsun Yan has not been caught in the act for so long. After all, when Liliae turns her head back occasionally, Gongsun Yan's eyes are most likely on her.
"Well, walk slowly."
Watching Gongsun Yan walk away quickly, Miss Joy sighed in disappointment, then pulled herself together again, focusing all her energy on the Pokémon that were receiving treatment, and calming her restless heart. Compared to her own little plans, the safety of these Pokémon was more important.
After Gongsun Yan walked over to Liliae and the others, he felt that the malice that had shrouded him had dissipated. He heaved a sigh of relief and told them the news he had heard from Miss Joy.
Everyone was relieved to hear that the Pokémon were fine. As long as the Pokémon were fine, they were glad. But even so, they still felt very uncomfortable and began to insult the Rocket Team in indignation.
"Everyone, don't worry. Because of this accident, Professor Oak was very angry. He not only summoned all his Pokémon back, but also asked for support from the Alliance."
Seeing that everyone was eager to find the Rockets on the spot and wanted to eat their flesh alive, drink their blood, pull out their tendons, grind their bones and scatter them to ashes, Gongsun Yan also had a headache and hurriedly began to persuade everyone.
With Gongsun Yan's constant comfort, everyone finally returned to normal. This emotion came and went quickly, and the group finally started to talk about business, about their future travel plans.
"Liliae and I will probably go with you to Yuejian Mountain, and then see if there is a chance to kidnap a Pipi or a Pi baby, and then rush to Vermilion City from the mole cave in Yuejian Mountain." Gongsun Yan was the first to express his thoughts.
"There is no problem here, but Xiaoyan, are you sure there are gopher holes in Yuejian Mountain? I remember that gopher holes will continue to collapse and extend. The gopher holes that existed before may not exist now." Xiaogang was the first to ask the question.
As the name suggests, a Digger Hole is a hole dug by a Digger. Because Digger is a Pokémon that has the natural ability to dig holes and is a social Pokémon, where a Digger has walked, it will leave behind such a strange thing as a Digger Hole.
There is actually something similar in the Alola region, but it is not called a Diglett Cave, but a Diglett Tunnels. And because the Alola Diglett has Steel Element, it will be a bit stronger.
There are actually two forms of digging techniques. One is to dig a temporary tunnel, which is the type used in the competition. Although the digging speed is very fast, the tunnel will soon collapse and is not durable.
The other type is a tunnel that can be preserved for a long time. Not only will the digging speed be slower, but it will also consume more energy. Even a Pokémon like Diglett that is good at digging can only dig a few meters a day.
Chapter 43: About to embark on a journey
However, even if these tunnels can be preserved for a long enough time, they have a limit, because the gophers are constantly expanding the size of the gopher holes. Tunnels are being opened up at any time, and some tunnels collapse due to excessive time.
It is precisely because of this characteristic of the mole cave that Xiao Gang asked Gongsun Yan whether he could confirm this news. After all, even the Alliance could not draw a complete map of the mole cave. It was not that it could not be done, but that there was no need to do it.
A mole hole that few people would use, and one that is updated in real time. The Alliance would have nothing better to do than to create such a map.
"You don't have to worry about this. I know there is a new tunnel that has been dug out less than a month ago, so there shouldn't be any problems." Gongsun Yan said, patting his chest.
As for why Gongsun Yan was so sure? Because this news was told to him by Professor Oak, it seemed that one of his useless apprentices dug it out while running away, and it would not collapse within half a year, so it could be used without any worries.
And that apprentice was also an acquaintance of Gongsun Yan, his suspected fellow villager, Yu Longyan, who once fled to the Kanto area and hid in a mole cave for a long time.
Honestly, the more Gongsun Yan listened, the more he felt something was wrong. Was Yu Longyan really on the run? Why did he feel like he was just on a honeymoon trip under the guise of running away? Otherwise, why would he travel to so many places?
"Ah Qiu! Who is talking about me? The resentment is so strong. Could it be Wu Song? It shouldn't be. I have calculated it accurately. The current workload is just stuck at his psychological limit."
At this moment, Yulong Yan, who was far away in the Sinnoh region, sneezed and began to wonder who was talking about him behind his back. He also hugged his beloved tightly in his arms, not looking like the enemy he had fought with before.
"Forget it, let's not think too much about it. Let's think about where to go for our honeymoon. We've been to Johto, Kanto, and Hoenn. We're in Sinnoh now, so we can't go to Alola... Forget it, let's just go to the Kalos region, which is famous for its romance."
Gongsun Yan obviously didn't expect that what he said casually turned out to be the truth. Yu Longyan was really acting in order to delay his return. By the way, he also helped his wife get a long vacation in the alliance. After all, if her husband ran away, you can't stop him from chasing him.
Let us not talk about Yu Longyan who was on vacation due to a bug for now, and turn our attention back to Gongsun Yan. He hasn't finished what he wants to say yet.
"Besides, even if there is a landslide there, Groudon is always by my side, so there won't be any problem." Gongsun Yan said, patting his chest.
"We're not worried about this... Forget it, at least you know it." Xiaogang seemed to be hesitant to speak, and in the end said nothing.
What they were worried about was not what to do if the Diglett's burrow collapsed. As long as there was a Pokémon that could dig holes, such things as landslides would never affect the trainers.
Even if there were no Pokémon that could dig holes at the time, it would not be impossible to temporarily capture them in digger holes. After all, for Pokémon that can live in digger holes, digging holes is one of their instincts.
If you don't have time to capture it, then just follow a Ground-type Pokémon and go in when it digs a hole. Although it may look a little embarrassing, you will definitely be able to survive.
It is precisely because there are so many solutions that over the years, there has been no trainer who has died in the Diglett Cave. It can be said to be the safest place.
Since there is no problem with Gongsun Yan, Xiaozhi and the others will have no problem either. Currently, the Battle Frontier in the Hoenn region has not been built yet, and only the Kanto region has a Battle Frontier. Xiaozhi just needs to defeat them one by one like he usually does when attacking gyms.
However, there was an episode. Gongsun Yan originally planned to challenge Xiaogang in the research institute in order to obtain the gray badge, but Xiaogang refused Gongsun Yan's challenge on the grounds that he had now stepped down as the gym leader.
Although Gongsun Yan felt very sorry about this, he still expressed his understanding. He had to pass through Nibi City anyway, and it would be the same when he challenged there. He would definitely not be able to escape the badge.
However, although Brock has stepped down from the position of gym leader, according to the latest official book of the League, the gym trainer of Nibe Gym is still Brock, and the others are only temporarily taking over the role of gym trainer.
After all, both of Xiaogang's parents have a history of running away, and Jiro is too young and doesn't even have his own Pokémon. There is no way the League will recognize him as a gym leader.
Feng and Nan are gym trainers of the Green Ridge Gym in the Hoenn region. Although they look very young, they have both passed their tenth birthday. In this regard, the Alliance still has a bottom line.
After deciding on their next travel route, everyone went to look for their own Pokémon. After rescuing the captured Pokémon, they let their Pokémon go to play, and now no one knows where they have gone.
Xiaoyao's Hunting Butterfly and Catumin stayed in the Orange Gym just like in the anime, so she brought four Pokémon here now, so it was easy to find them.
Naturally, Snorlax was taking a nap with Ash's Snorlax, Bulbasaur and Milotic were flirting with Ash's Bulbasaur and Milotic respectively, and Blaziken was sparring with Ash's Lizardlord. It seemed easy to find them.
Because Ash's Pokémon generally live in the same place, it is very easy to find them. However, just after Ash showed up, a familiar scene appeared.
Although the thirty Kentaro that Xiaozhi captured in the hunting area have been kept free at the Oak Laboratory, their feelings for Xiaozhi are no less than those of other Pokémon.
So they immediately became excited after seeing Satoshi. One of the Kentaro threw Satoshi onto his back and started running wildly with him.
Xiaozhi was obviously very used to this situation. Even though it happened suddenly, he didn't panic at all. He immediately adjusted his posture and began to imitate a western cowboy for everyone.
"Oh! Xiaozhi, do one more!" Gongsun Yan cheered loudly from the side, wanting Xiaozhi to do some difficult moves. Xiaozhi naturally agreed and performed several difficult moves in succession, which aroused constant cheers from the crowd and the atmosphere suddenly became heated.
In such a happy and joyful atmosphere, the last day of everyone in the Oak Institute came to an end. The next day, everyone will embark on a journey again. I wonder what kind of story will happen in the end? Let us wait and see.
Chapter 44: The Surprise Appearance of Baby Skin
"Damn it, Xiaogang, is your brother serious? You guys are using these Pokémon to guard the gym. You don't even want to give the badge to the challenger!"
Gongsun Yan and others were walking on the way to Yuejian Mountain. Gongsun Yan had mentioned this issue countless times. He was really scared when he challenged the Nibe Gym before. He always felt like something was missing if he didn't complain about it.
"Ahaha, it's okay. Jiro just wants to train those trainers." Xiaogang laughed awkwardly, and everyone could hear the guilt in his tone.
"Xiaogang, listen to what you said. Even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe it. Xiaozhi, do you believe it?" Gongsun Yan turned and asked Xiaozhi.
"Well, that's a bit too much." Xiao Zhi seemed to have not yet realized that Gongsun Yan was insulting him, and he actually answered directly.
"Look, even Xiaozhi doesn't believe it. Don't you think this is a bit too much? I can understand Jiro's desire to run the Nibe Gym well, but please also consider the psychological endurance of those trainers! It turns out that the most suitable person to be the leader of the Nibe Gym is you, Xiaogang." Gongsun Yan suddenly began to sigh.
The reason why Gongsun Yan was so irritable was that he was beaten up by Jiro when he challenged the Nibe Gym before. If he hadn't held back, he really wouldn't have been able to get the gray badge.
