Elves: Angler's Rainy Day Team

Chapter 800, World Championship
On the alliance side, in a quiet ward, the atmosphere was somewhat solemn. Xiao Dan, an investigator, had just returned from a mission and was immediately hospitalized due to fatigue and pain.

In the ward, Kona was wearing a black and purple professional suit, looking simple and capable. She had a focused look in her eyes, holding a pen and a notebook in her hands, listening quietly to Xiaodan's report and writing down the key information.

Nearby, Daigo and Watari, the two young champions of the league, were also standing in the ward, listening intently to Xiaodan's story.

Xiao Dan started from the beginning when he first dived into the freighter, and how the Ocean Team suddenly broke into the freighter and woke him up. The scene of the Ocean Team confronting the freighter sailors seemed to be reproduced in front of everyone. Xiao Dan described the scene in detail, and everyone gradually understood the ins and outs of the whole incident.

During this operation, the ocean team and the freighter left behind a number of prisoners, which became the key breakthrough in the subsequent investigation. However, when asked about a key figure, these people only knew his name. They didn't even know who the captain was and had never seen him. They also said that the first mate and the second mate were usually in charge.

After listening to the story of the Ocean Team, Daigo frowned slightly, an apology flashed across his face, and he looked at Xiaodan sincerely, his tone full of apology: "This time it was the fault of Devon Company. The submarine used for deep-sea scientific research was stolen by the Ocean Team to capture Lugia. It was our failure to supervise properly."

Daigo was wearing a neat dark suit, the silver cufflinks on his cuffs flickering slightly under the light. He straightened his back and made a solemn promise to the people present: "Dewen Company will compensate for all the losses caused by the Marine Team here."

His words revealed his wealth and arrogance.

As expected of a trainer who had captured and bred a colored Metagross, even Metagross's Mega Stone was attracted by Daigo's heroism and gathered towards him. After hearing this, the corners of their mouths twitched and they didn't want to talk to this guy anymore.

When Xiao Dan changed the subject and mentioned the Spider Organization, a tense atmosphere instantly filled the ward.

Everyone's originally serious expressions instantly turned into surprise, with their eyes full of disbelief. Before this, the Spider Pirates were just rumors circulating near the port, but they didn't expect that they actually existed.

"Are you sure? Is it really that strong?" Du looked serious, his eyes fixed on Xiao Dan. This matter was of vital importance. The alliance was currently exploring the gaps in the Orange Islands and had no idea of ​​the existence of this hidden power.

The emergence of such a terrifying pirate organization in the Orange Islands was truly unexpected and added another tricky problem for them.

"Yes, very strong." Xiao Dan still felt frightened when he recalled what happened with the members of the Spider Organization last night.

He tried to calm down, his hands unconsciously clenching the quilt, and he recalled carefully: "The spider pirates I encountered this time, I am sure they are real 'spider'. Just like the previous two major cases, the personnel and elves are almost the same..."

"Spider leader Zero has a king-level Gengar that exudes a strong dark aura. When Gengar appears, the air around him seems to solidify, and the skin can feel the chill emanating from Gengar."

"Spider One has a King-class Desert Dragonfly, which flies extremely fast and has extremely destructive attacks. This time they also added a King-class Stinky Mud, the disgusting smell still lingers in my nose."

"There is also a King-class Gyarados, which is huge in size. Every attack can shake the freighter. The number of members of the Spider Organization is still increasing, and there are more and more King-class trainers. I suspect that each of them has the potential to become a King-class trainer..."

"What? Everyone?" Kona frowned, his face full of confusion. The Orange Islands is just a small place, how could it possibly support so many top trainers?
She couldn't help but ask, "You reported earlier that there are thirteen Spider Pirates. Based on this, if we give them time, wouldn't thirteen Elite Trainers be born?"

"It's hard to say. This is just my personal guess." Xiao Dan shook his head slightly. The terrifying power emanating from the Spider Organization still reappeared in his mind as if it were yesterday.

Spider scared the Ocean Team away at the time and didn't take them seriously at all. Even the reinforcements from the freighter chose to retreat. The attitudes of these people were enough to prove how powerful Spider was.

Xiao Dan was lying on the hospital bed with the white quilt pulled up to her chest. Her hands unconsciously clutched the corners of the quilt, with a trace of fear still on her face.

"The danger level of the Spider Organization will increase. Let's put this matter aside for now. Take a look at this person first. Have you seen him on that ship? This is the registrant information of the freighter that we have investigated." Du took out a photo from the inner pocket of his coat and handed it to Xiao Dan.

"Who is this person? I have never seen him." Xiao Dan took the photo and his eyes fell on the face of the middle-aged man in it. It was a strange face. He shook his head slightly and then returned the photo to Du.

"It seems that it's not him. The Black Ship is really cautious. He is just a scapegoat." Du shook his head helplessly, carefully put away the photo, and explained to Xiao Dan: "This man is called A Long. Before the freighter incident, he just committed a family massacre in Big City, and then disappeared without a trace..."

"You reported the illegal transportation of the freighter, and we followed the clues to find the actual controller of the freighter. We didn't expect it to be this murderer. We thought we could bring him to justice this time, but it seems that the black ship is hiding deeper than we expected."

Du sighed heavily, his tone full of emotion about the difficulty of the case, and the atmosphere in the ward became heavier because of his words.

At the moment, they are overwhelmed by the complicated relationship between the black ships and local forces. The most troublesome are the cargo ships and cruise ships shuttling on the sea, each of which swears that they are operating legally.

Even if they boarded the ship to search, they often found nothing. When they went to check again after nightfall, all the bustling black ships had disappeared without a trace.

They were already having a headache because of this matter, and then they didn't expect a mysterious "spider" to appear. At first, they thought it was a transvestite prank by a group of hooligans, but after a thorough investigation, they found that things were far from that simple, which undoubtedly made their work more difficult.

The matter of the spider can only be put aside for now. The most urgent matter at the moment is how to dismantle the intricate network of relationships between the black ship and local forces.

After repeated discussions, they concluded that the most effective way was to introduce new interest groups and build new interest alliances to counter and gradually replace the stubborn illegal force of the black ships.

Among the many options, the power of the gym stands out and seems particularly suitable. Using the alliance gym to build a new interest group to deal with this deep-rooted local interest group is a best strategy.

In terms of specific operations, the gym can attract those relatively obedient forces and slowly divide and disintegrate the wavering fence-sitters. At the same time, the alliance can take action at the right time to arrest a group of typical stubborn elements, which will have the effect of deterring everyone.

With such a combination of measures, the living space of the black ships will be greatly squeezed, and those illegal transactions that are difficult to monitor can be quietly banned, so that the alliance can manage the Orange Islands more effectively.

Facts speak louder than words. The four large islands with gyms are in good order. There is no trace of black markets or black ships at all. The black ships don't even dare to dock on the islands with gyms. This is the best example.

However, setting up a gym on an inhabited island is not practical from a practical perspective.

You have to know that there are only about ten gyms in the Kanto region and the Chengdu region. It is impossible for the Alliance to allow every region to open gyms without restraint.

Therefore, the only option is to let the existing "Fishing" gym expand its management scope and include the surrounding islands in the management of the gym.

The existing gyms in the Orange Islands are distributed in the four directions of southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest. Just add four more gyms in the middle of these four gyms, which can not only share some of the pressure for the original four gyms, but also eliminate the excuses for the gyms to be lazy.

At this point, we have to mention the issue of the Yuzu Gym. The Yuzu Gym has been harboring enemies for a long time, and has been lip service to the tasks assigned by the Alliance. It has not been working hard on Yuzu Island, and has been reluctant to take the lead in eliminating the black market in Big City.

In response to this situation, they have made up their minds that if Yuzu Gym continues to not cooperate, their gym management rights will be directly revoked.

These detailed plans were all written into the development plan of the Orange Islands. They had ordered the Yuzu Gym to fully cooperate with Junsha to take over the underground black market in Big City in one fell swoop and fill up the caves under Big City.

If Big Brother Storm was present at this moment, he would surely suddenly realize why Team Rocket was so eager to develop on the ground. It turned out that they realized that the black market had been targeted by the Alliance and its destruction was only a matter of time, so they were looking for another way out and seeking new development space.

If a gaming city is built on the ground, as long as taxes are paid according to the law, the alliance will have nothing to say. Once the hype has died down, a small black market can be quietly opened inside the gaming city. With the Rockets' means, it will be an easy task.

Afterwards, they asked Xiao Dan some more questions, and they talked for a long time about the current situation, until Miss Joy asked them to leave the ward with a slight apology, saying that Xiao Dan needed to rest.

In the ward, the light was soft. Du stood in front of the bed of Xiaodan, the owner of the hall, with a gentle smile and concern on his face, and encouraged Xiaodan with a few words.

"Master Xiaodan, you should have a good rest. You have made a great contribution this time. The alliance will not be stingy with rewards. When the contribution value comes down, you can go to Citrus Island to apply for what you want, or you can send it to the Napuru Gym. I wish you a speedy recovery. We still need your help..."

"I understand," Xiao Dan looked at the three people, stretched out his hand and shook hands with them one by one, with a smile on his face and nodded.

However, the handshake accidentally pulled the wound, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but he still insisted on smiling and watched the three people leave.

As soon as he stood up, Miss Joy gently pushed him back onto the bed and skillfully gave him an IV.

…Watari, Daigo, and Kona walked out of the ward and into the corridor of the Pokémon Center. It was time for them to say goodbye.

Daigo is not the champion here. The survey plan carried out by the Orange Islands this time is mainly undertaken by the Kanto Alliance, assisted by the Chengdu Alliance, and has little to do with the Hoenn Alliance.

It was only because the freighter incident involved the Ocean Team and the scientific research submarine built by Dewen that Daigo made this special trip. He stepped forward and smiled as he stretched out his hand to Du: "Du, I should go now. If you have time to come to the Hoenn region, remember to come to Dewen Company to find me."

Watari also smiled and held Daigo's hand. He had been busy in the Orange Islands for some time. He was a little curious about the recent actions of the Alliance, so he took the opportunity to ask, "The areas discovered by the Alliance have basically stabilized. I heard that the Alliance actually controls too many areas. In order to enhance the cohesion of the Alliance in various regions, the Alliance is preparing to prepare a large-scale competition to bring together trainers from all over the world to compete. It seems to be called the World Championship. Do you know what stage the preparations are at?"

Daigo frowned slightly and smiled awkwardly: "I'm not sure either. I heard that the higher-ups are actively preparing, but it's not an easy task to get trainers from all over the world to compete together. It will probably take several years to prepare."

He had just become the champion and had originally planned to play for a few years before retiring to manage the family business, so he really had no time to take care of these things.

This time when he returns, there will definitely be a lot of trouble waiting for him in the company because of the Marine Team stealing the submarine. At the very least, he has to clean out the pests within the company and give the Marine Team the most severe crackdown on the theft.

“Really? I wonder where the venue will be chosen? It will be an unprecedented event, and the mega evolution should be announced by then.” Du looked at Daigo's forced smile, knowing that Daigo was also a very busy man, so he smiled helplessly.

This time when he returns, Daigo will also have to face a big mess, so he naturally can't stay for long.

When Daigo first heard about this event, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Yes, by then trainers from all over the world will participate, and we will be rivals..."

When Watari heard about the battle, especially the battle with a master like Daigo, he instantly became excited and his eyes lit up: "Haha, I won't let you win."

Kona, who had been watching the two people talking silently, rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "How long are you going to talk? You all have nothing to do, right?"

She folded her hands in front of her chest and stamped her feet with her high heels. She felt a little unhappy that two grown men were so sympathetic and hesitant, leaving a girl aside.

"Haha, sorry." Daigo touched his nose awkwardly, waved at Watari and Kona with a smile, turned around and quickly left the Pokémon Center.

After a while, a helicopter from Devon Company slowly flew over from a distance and stopped at the designated location. Daigo boarded the helicopter and returned to the Hoenn region.

After Daigo left, Du stood in the corridor of the Elf Center. The lights were dim. He lowered his head slightly, feeling a little embarrassed. He didn't dare to look directly at Kona beside him.

Ever since he took the throne of champion, he knew in his heart that in terms of strength, the beauty in front of him was definitely one of the trainers who could dethrone him.

Unfortunately, Kona has never been interested in the champion position. In Kona's opinion, the champion has to deal with a lot of complicated affairs, which will not only seriously affect his sleep quality, but also easily accelerate aging.

Because of this, Kona refused to challenge the championship road, otherwise, with Kona's strength, the championship position would have been changed hands long ago.

In the league, before they truly reached championship strength, the strength between these four kings was actually not much different, including him, the new champion.

In battle, attribute restraint often plays a key role, but King Kikuko is a special existence, because Kikuko has real champion-level elves and extraordinary strength. No one in the alliance dares to challenge Kikuko easily, and no one dares to challenge her.

Just then, Miss Junsha, dressed in a neat police uniform, hurried over. Her police hat was worn neatly on her head, and the badge was shining faintly under the light.

"Mr. Du, King Kona, this is the freighter..." Miss Junsha walked up to Du and the others and stood at attention, ready to report on the aftermath of the freighter.

Du turned around, took the cargo ship statistics report handed over by Junsha, stood by the window in the corridor, and read it carefully under the light of the street light.

The data in the report was detailed and all matters were recorded clearly. After reading it and confirming that it was correct, he took out a pen from his pocket, signed his name at the end of the report, and then returned the report to Junsha.

"Ms. Junsha, thank you for your hard work in the aftermath of the freighter. You must help the stolen Pokémon find trainers, and also properly resettle the women and children. Send them home if they have homes." Du looked serious, his tone full of concern for the victims.

"Mr. Du, it's not hard, for..." Miss Junsha was about to salute as usual, but Du interrupted her with his arm half raised.

Du smiled and waved his hand. His smile did not show any champion's arrogance. He interrupted Miss Junsha's serious behavior and said with a gentle smile: "Miss Junsha, you have worked hard too. Go down and have a rest. Everyone involved in this operation will have their salary doubled, and there will be bonuses."

In his mind, although he is a champion, he is essentially also a trainer of the league, and everyone is a citizen of the league who works hard to maintain the order and stability of the league.

"Great!" When Miss Junsha heard there was a bonus, her eyes lit up instantly, she jumped up in excitement, and her face was filled with a bright smile, "I want to go on vacation to the beach!"

Kona stood aside and touched his forehead helplessly when he saw Miss Junsha so excited. It was just a vacation, but Junsha, who had just started working, was so happy that her mouth corners were almost grinning to her ears. This showed that everyone's work intensity during this period was really high.

"Hehe." Miss Junsha then realized that she had lost her composure. She scratched her head embarrassedly, looked at Kona and Du awkwardly, then trotted away with the work report in her arms.

At this time, only Du and Kona were left in the empty corridor. It was so quiet that the only sound they could hear was Miss Junsha's footsteps getting farther and farther away.

Du turned around, put his hands casually behind his head, and walked towards the exit of the Pokémon Center.

He raised his head slightly and sighed softly, his tone full of envy: "Let's go, there are still a lot of things waiting for us to deal with. I really envy that guy Xiba. It's enough for him to just teach his disciples."

Kona followed behind Du and curled his lips when he heard the words. He said rudely, "Tsk, I can smell the sour smell even from a distance."

She crossed her arms in front of her chest, her eyes teasing, "If someone doesn't want the championship position, just give it up right away. There are so many people staring at you outside, dreaming of sitting in that position. You want to be tired but you don't even have the chance to be tired!"

Du didn't get angry after hearing this. Instead, he laughed heartily: "Haha, when did you become so sharp-tongued? How about you become the champion?"

He smiled and turned to look at Kona with a smile in his eyes, knowing full well that Kona had no interest in the championship position.

"Tsk tsk tsk, is someone trying to pass on the blame?" Kona didn't respond, because most of Du's Pokémon were dragon and flying types, and being four times restrained by the ice type that he was good at in a battle was double the joy.

In previous battles, Du was too lazy to fight her seriously and had even given up and admitted defeat.

"Haha, I won't argue with you." Du stopped smiling and looked serious. "Come to think of it, who do you think Spider is? What do you want to do by gathering so many Elite-level trainers?"

The two walked out of the Elf Center side by side. The wind blew in from the door, bringing with it a hint of the salty and humid smell unique to the seaside.

Kona frowned and shook his head helplessly: "Who knows? We don't even know the identity of Spider, how can we guess his intentions?"

Since it was nighttime, Kona tightened his coat, as if to resist the slight chill brought by the sea breeze, and continued, "The most urgent task is to deal with the problem of Team Rocket's infiltration first. We must not let Team Rocket collude with the locals of the Orange Islands. This is the top priority."

Du sighed helplessly, his brows twisted into a "川", also troubled by this matter, and sighed: "I don't have the ability to read minds, how can I know who will join Team Rocket? It's really a headache."

Kona's eyes rolled, his tone was full of vigor and decisiveness, and he smiled without hesitation: "That's easy, let everyone hand in a certificate that they have nothing to do with Team Rocket. Anyone who doesn't hand it in will be arrested directly."

Du was stunned at first, then he laughed: "What a simple and crude method! Aren't you afraid that they will play tricks on you? They will grab your right hand with their left hand, hand over the evidence with their left hand, and then collude with you secretly with their right hand. Hahaha..."

As the laughter faded away, Du and Kona's figures slowly disappeared at the end of the street. They continued to devote themselves to the alliance's survey plan of the Orange Islands, working hard for the peace of this sea area.
