Meanwhile, in the Kanto region.
The Silph League headquarters and the Silph Arena, originally located on the summit of Indigo Plateau, had been completely destroyed in the previous tripartite battle between the League, Shadow, and Team Rocket.
Currently, the Silph League is stepping up its reconstruction efforts.
And Damalanchi has temporarily moved his office to a luxury hotel in Viridian City, the closest to Indigo Plateau.
"Chairman, Mr. Silph, the president of Silph Co., stated in an interview yesterday that he feels uneasy about the Kanto region and that if Kanto does not take effective measures, he intends to move the headquarters to other regions."
Erika, the leader of the Kanto region's Gym Leaders, reported to Damalanchi.
A few days ago, Oak also told Su Sheng that Team Rocket's main activity area was Kanto.
In addition, the world has witnessed the powerful force that Team Rocket now possesses.
This has caused great anxiety among the general public, especially those living in the Kanto region.
Many families have chosen to move.
Of course, families with such economic strength are still in the minority.
But it does not prevent an atmosphere of unease from permeating the skies of Kanto.
Moreover, many companies, led by Silph Co., have also expressed dissatisfaction.
Not only giant companies like Silph, but many real estate developers have also stated that the real estate prices in the Kanto region have plummeted because of this!
Damalanchi must think of a way to stabilize people's hearts.
Knock knock~
At this moment, a knock sounded on the door.
A middle-aged man's voice came from outside the door.
"Chairman~ Can I come in?"
As soon as he heard this lazy voice, Damalanchi guessed who it was.
"Come in, Marlon."
The door opened, and the visitor was none other than Marlon, the Island King of Ula'ula Island in Alola, who had recently declined to serve as the Alola League Gym Leader.
But even few Alolans know that Marlon also has the identity of an "International Police Ace".
"Chairman, then I'll take my leave first."
Erika nodded to Damalanchi and quickly left.
After only the two of them were left in the room, Marlon smacked his lips and reported:
"General Chairman, about Joker..."
Damalanchi shook his head, "There's no need to report Joker's matter, anyway, his identity is known all over the world."
Damalanchi sighed like Hiruzen Sarutobi possessed.
If he had known that Joker joined Team Rocket for such a reason.
He should have investigated Elites when the Asagi Gym was attacked.
Instead of letting those councilors throw dirty water on Joker.
Seeing Damalanchi's regretful look, Marlon hesitated to speak.
To be honest, he always felt that the brotherly relationship between Su Sheng and Joker was a bit strange.
But Marlon couldn't explain exactly where it was strange.
It can only be said that this is his intuition as a top detective.
"By the way, it's good that you're here. I want to ask you, if the League wants to regain the trust of the people, especially the people of Kanto, what's a good way?"
Compared to Joker, Damalanchi is now more concerned about how to regain the trust of the people.
Especially the trust of the people in the Kanto region.
Damalanchi even suspected that if the cost of moving wasn't too high, half of the people in the Kanto region would want to leave.
Even Yukinari, the traitor, betrayed their friendship and sent his grandchildren to Alola!
Marlon stroked his chin and said, "Well... the easiest way should be to let Kanto's new champion show off his skills and show the world that he still has the strength to protect Kanto..."
Why aren't the people in Alola and Galar afraid?
Isn't it because Su Sheng and the Sword and Shield Kings are respectively guarding there?
If Dragon Master Watanabe shows his strength, the people of Kanto will naturally feel at ease.
But Marlon was a little curious whether those two dogs would care about human disputes.
"But the problem is... alas, if Rayquaza was here..."
Damalanchi said with a headache.
Although he struggled, he finally decided to push Dragon Master Watanabe to the new champion's seat.
But it's still very far-fetched.
After all, the whole world knows that Dragon Master Watanabe's strength has greatly declined after losing his ace Dragonite.
Alas, if the Rayquaza caught by Devon Corporation before was still there.
If that Rayquaza was given to Watanabe to control, would he still be afraid of Team Rocket?
It's a pity that Rayquaza ran away.
emmm... If Zuvuki Mikuri knew Damalanchi's idea, he would definitely fight him desperately.
Why should I give the Rayquaza that I worked so hard to get if you say you want it!?
It should be given to my son Daigo! (In the official mobile game, Daigo really has a Rayquaza, and Watanabe is really not welcome. The official would rather give the Dragon God Beast to Bai Cai and Daigo than give it to him)
"Chairman, what are you talking about? What Rayquaza?"
Marlon asked with a frown.
"Oh, nothing. You've worked hard these past two years. Go back to Alola and have a good rest."
Damalanchi waved his hand.
Marlon left the hotel, but he couldn't let go of Joker's matter.
He always felt that something was wrong with this matter.
After sitting on a public bench for a long time, Marlon decided to conduct an investigation alone.
First of all, go and see those participants in the Indigo Plateau battle.
See if you can get some information from them that is not known to outsiders.
After Marlon left, Damalanchi's assistant reported:
"General Chairman, Dr. Kukui from Alola wants to see you."
...
...
In the underground laboratory of Aether Paradise in Alola.
Su Sheng sat in the center of the laboratory, with two Latias playing beside him.
In the projection screen opposite, Giovanni, who was far away in Kanto, took this scene into his eyes.
"Has the purification been successful? A Sheng."
Giovanni said with great surprise.
That Latias was obviously not as violent as it was during the Indigo Plateau battle, and it seemed extremely lively.
The most obvious feature is that it does not emit strange dark fluctuations.
"Well, it took a lot of effort to research the purification device, but it takes a lot of time to purify a dark Pokémon."
Su Sheng pointed to the large equipment behind him. The darkened Latios was in the middle, enduring the pain, accepting purification.
This is the "Purification Room" developed by Su Sheng, which can purify two dark Pokémon back to a healthy state, but it takes a lot of time.
Latias is the first dark Pokémon to be successfully purified. (The Purification Room is also a device in the Shadow's game "Dark Whirlwind", which can purify dark Pokémon, but the time is indeed so slow that players want to kill people)
Giovanni nodded in agreement.
Team Rocket also seized some darkened Pokémon from Shadow.
But after research by Kiyo, Fuji and others.
This is a failed invention that temporarily strengthens Pokémon at the cost of their lives, and the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages.
Giovanni didn't want to use this thing either.
Although he is very ruthless to outsiders, he would not want his Pokémon partner to gain temporary enhancement at the cost of his life.
Giovanni couldn't do such a thing.
After all, he is really nice to his own people.
Su Sheng remembered something else and asked, "By the way, uncle, how is the Mewtwo project going?"
Giovanni replied, "Everything is normal at the moment. If we continue smoothly according to this step, it should be completed in two years."
"Do you want to try to integrate the dark power into it?"
Su Sheng suggested.
As soon as these words came out, Giovanni's pupils suddenly shrank, and then gradually fell into silence.
Seeing his appearance, Su Sheng knew that Giovanni was tempted.
"But... doesn't dark power erode the vitality of Pokémon?"
Giovanni wanted to cultivate Mewtwo as his trump card, so of course he wouldn't want to use this method to make Mewtwo stronger.
"There is an exception among dark Pokémon that can ignore any side effects and freely drive dark power."
Su Sheng pointed out, and Giovanni immediately reacted.
"Are you talking about Dark Lugia?!"
Su Sheng nodded, "I learned from Dark Lugia that he was injected with dark power when he was very young, and now he is completely integrated with this power, and Mewtwo is now just an embryo, or even just a cell form. If you inject dark power into it at this time..."
Giovanni's eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened, "As expected of you, A Sheng. If this is the case, Mewtwo's power can be taken to the next level!"
At this moment, the landline on Giovanni's desk rang.
Matori quickly stepped forward and picked up the microphone.
"Hello~"
As soon as Matori opened her mouth, her face turned pale in the second second.
"Mr. Giovanni, Lorelei."
Matori moved the microphone away from her ear and whispered.
Giovanni and Su Sheng in the screen changed their faces.
Giovanni directly pressed the speakerphone key on the landline.
There are only a handful of people who know his office landline number. Whenever this landline rings, he knows it won't be a trivial matter.
But Giovanni didn't expect that the old monster would call.
"Giovanni, connect to that kid Su Sheng."
The next second, Lorelei's slightly hoarse voice came out.
"I'm here, Lorelei."
Su Sheng replied.
I feel that this old man's voice is more sinister than usual.
"The information about Celebi, I want it now."
Although he couldn't see Lorelei's expression at the moment, from his voice, Su Sheng and Giovanni could imagine Lorelei's gnashing teeth.
Giovanni frowned.
What's wrong with this old thing suddenly?
Giovanni signaled Su Sheng not to act rashly, and replied:
"That's sudden. Can you tell us why you're in such a hurry? Could it be that your old body can't hold on anymore?"
"I'm not interested in talking nonsense with you!"
Lorelei's roar made Giovanni also restrain his smile.
"Dark Ball, that thing should be able to control Celebi's mind. Find a way to get one for me, and clues about Celebi."
Lorelei said coldly again.
"That's not easy, old man."
Su Sheng interjected:
"After the Indigo Plateau War, all the Dark Balls were handed over to the League, and forcibly destroyed under the order of Chairman Damalanchi. There is not one left in the world now."
Originally, Team Rocket did get a few.
But whether it was Su Sheng or Giovanni, they felt that this thing had more disadvantages than advantages, and they destroyed it without using it.
It was mainly to prevent someone in Team Rocket from having bad intentions about this thing.
Now there is indeed not one left in the world.
"Don't give me that crap. With your kid's cleverness, even if it's destroyed, the method to make it must be in your head!"
Lorelei's tone was more violent than usual.
"One month's time, one Dark Ball, and the information about Celebi. If you lack one, just wait for your identities to appear on the front page of the world's media."
"Threatening us?"
Giovanni's eyes became more and more dangerous.
Su Sheng's expression was not very good either.
"What? Can't I?"
Lorelei said coldly.
Perhaps the three strongest trainers in the world at the moment fell into silence across the air.
And Matori, as the only bystander, was sweating like a faucet that was not turned off, dripping down in large drops.
And the two Latias who were originally playing also felt the heaviness of the atmosphere, stopped playing and said nothing.
"It's not a problem to recreate a Dark Ball for you, but no one can guarantee the information about Celebi."
Su Sheng said again.
After all, Celebi is a slippery mythical beast with the same attributes as Mew.
How do you know where it will run?
What's more, compared to Mew, Celebi may even run to other time and space to play.
Maybe there is no Celebi in this time and space. Who can guarantee you that you can find Celebi's trace in a month?
"I don't care about that. If you can't do it, just wait for your identities to be exposed to the world!"
After speaking, Lorelei hung up the phone heavily.
Beep... Beep... Beep...
Hearing the hang-up tone from the landline, Giovanni couldn't help but show anger on his face, "What's wrong with this old immortal?!"
Su Sheng fell into deep thought.
Guessing why Lorelei was suddenly so irritable.
And Giovanni, who rarely gets angry, was still scolding, "I just gave him Lugia's feather at his request before. I thought it would keep that old thing quiet for a while. Why is he going crazy again so soon!"
Hearing Giovanni's words, Su Sheng "Piu" thought of a possibility.
Lugia's feather!
That's right, not long after the Indigo Plateau War ended.
Giovanni contacted him and said that Lorelei wanted a Dark Lugia's feather.
At that time, Su Sheng guessed what Lorelei wanted to do - to create a GS Ball that could seal Celebi's ability.
In the original manga, Lorelei used this trick to seal Celebi's ability.
However, Lorelei will have to wait about five years to achieve this goal.
Hey wait!
Thinking of this, Su Sheng guessed why Lorelei was so irritable today.
99% of the silver feather and rainbow feather were stolen.
In the original book, Lorelei found out that the things were stolen, and he was naturally half dead with anger, but besides catching Ho-Oh and Lugia again.
He has no other way.
But now it's different.
Lorelei knows the existence of Dark Ball.
To be honest, that thing is much more convenient than GS Ball.
GS Ball can only prevent Celebi from launching its ability in the ball, but this thing can directly control its mind.
And now, under Damalanchi's order, all Dark Balls have been destroyed.
But Lorelei firmly believes that Su Sheng can definitely recreate it.
As for the clues about Celebi, he wants to use Team Rocket's intelligence network.
"A Sheng, what do you think we should do about this?"
After scolding for a while, Sakaki gradually calmed down and asked Su Sheng.
"Anyway, I have no confidence in getting information about Celebi within a month."
Su Sheng's expression was not very good either.
Obviously, Yanagi was venting the anger ignited by Blue on himself and Sakaki.
In the original story, he could only swallow this bitter pill himself.
But now, he had a second option—to coerce Su Sheng and Sakaki.
"Then..."
Sakaki made a hand knife gesture.
The meaning was clear.
Even if he didn't know that Yanagi was the one who kidnapped his son, Sakaki felt that Yanagi couldn't be kept after this incident.
Damn, he's just a time bomb, who knows when it will explode.
"Wait a minute, let me ask that guy first."
Su Sheng hung up the phone with Sakaki, left Aether Paradise, and came to the Space Research Institute located on Akala Island.
As soon as he entered the research institute, Su Sheng found that everyone in the research institute was eating.
Burnet and Sonia sat opposite each other. Although they had only known each other for a short time, they were obviously getting along well.
Burnet used a fork to pick up a piece of salad, "Hey hey~ Sonia-chan, let me tell you, Kukui told me that several regional alliance presidents have agreed to hold a friendship competition together. Dande should also come at that time. I'll save you a ticket in the front row."
"No need, I don't want to watch."
Sonia got angry when she thought of Dande's unconcerned look on the plane before.
"Doctor, why are you here?"
At this time, a researcher discovered Su Sheng, a little nervous but with more longing and admiration in his eyes.
"I'm a little concerned about the research on Ultra Beasts."
Su Sheng waved to Burnet and Sonia and sat down between them.
However, the corner of his eye couldn't help but glance at a certain yellow-skinned mouse sitting at the table, wearing wired headphones, and constantly tapping on the Pokedex handle with two small short hands, playing the second-generation Pokedex's other launch game "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild".
"Pika~"
The pirated yellow-skinned mouse didn't look at Su Sheng at all, just opened its mouth slightly and chirped.
Seeing this, Sonia picked up a piece of cut Pecha Berry from the fruit plate next to her and put it into the yellow-skinned mouse's mouth.
Su Sheng:……
This guy is completely useless!
"Miss Sonia, would you like to take a walk after dinner?"
After casually eating a few mouthfuls of the staff meal brought by the research institute staff, Su Sheng invited Sonia.
Of course, Su Sheng's intention was not really about the walk. He wanted to take this opportunity to chat with a certain useless divine beast.
"Huh!?"
Burnet's eyes lit up immediately.
Could it be that... Dr. Su Sheng has that kind of feeling for Sonia!?
The lace news about Su Sheng and Karin, Lorelei, and Rurina had been spreading like wildfire some time ago, but unexpectedly, the one who benefited in the end was Sonia!?
Sonia was also stunned.
He, what does he want to do?
……
Originally, Sonia wanted to decline, but Burnet's eyes were shining as if she wanted to be a matchmaker, and she directly gave Sonia a half-day vacation, and even "kicked" her out of the research institute.
"Let's just walk around first."
After leaving the research room, Su Sheng invited.
"Uh... okay, okay."
Sonia, holding the useless mouse, said timidly, not daring to look Su Sheng in the eye.
Before long, Su Sheng got the information from the useless mouse.
Although the other party was very reluctant and said, "It's all your fault, otherwise I would have passed that shrine!"
However, under Su Sheng's threat of "I won't ask people to make games for you in the future", he still obediently spat out the information—
I can't find Celebi, chyu~
Although they are both slippery divine beasts, Mew doesn't have any search function. She usually wanders around the world, and whether she can meet other divine beasts is completely up to fate.
Unless it's like the Sword and Shield siblings living in Slumbering Weald, or Kyurem living in Giant's Bed, who have special residences, Mew can find them immediately.
She can't do anything else.
What's more, Celebi's slippery attribute is even stronger than hers. People can even slip into other timelines.
After saying goodbye to Sonia, Su Sheng immediately called Sakaki.
"I have no tricks here either."
Hearing this, Sakaki on the other end of the phone took a deep breath, "Find a way to kill that old thing."
Update offered, today is also two updates, please feed me.
