Elf: Starting as the Fighting Gym Master, and being entangled by Nancy.

Chapter 369 Giovanni Wants to Become the Acting Dojo Owner

"The Orange Islands? Lugia?"

Upon hearing this, all the high-ranking members of the alliance turned their attention to the one who had spoken.

"Yes, it's an old story from my hometown. It's about when the three legendary birds posed some kind of threat, plunging the world into chaos, and a hero stepped forward and summoned Lugia to drive them away."

The executive then gave a general overview of the story.

Everyone heard this.

You look at me, I look at you.

Different expressions.

Did the Three Sacred Birds plunge the world into chaos?
This……

It's pretty wild.

Although the three legendary birds are legendary Pokémon, there are differences between legendary Pokémon.

Compared to Ho-Oh, Lugia, Groudon, and Kyogre, the three legendary birds are practically nothing special.

"Haha, that's just one theory. The Three Holy Birds destroying the world is impossible."

The executive just laughed it off.

I don't really believe the story myself.

So when I grew up, I only told this story to children.

The Kanto Alliance members discussed many things, and finally, Damaranchi adjourned the meeting, leaving the Kanto Four Heavenly Kings behind before the rest of the high-ranking members left.

"President Damaranch, what's wrong?"

Kona adjusted her glasses, seemingly unconcerned about D'Amaranh keeping them behind for a private meeting.

After all, if they could be called down, they must have something to ask you to do.

As one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Kanto region, it is only right that they do their duty.

"In a few days, Li Xuan will be heading to the Unova region."

Damaranchi rested his chin on his hands and spoke softly to the crowd.

"What's wrong? Is Chairman Damaranchi afraid that Master Li Xuan will be kidnapped by the United Alliance? Hehehe."

Grandma Kikuko made a sarcastic remark, feeling that D'Amaranchi was being wasted on such a trivial matter.

Do you think I'm that petty?

Damaranchi almost lost his composure. He gave Kikuko a disapproving look before saying to the four of them, "Adek told me that the United States has been in turmoil lately. I'm afraid that if Master Li Xuan goes there, he will suffer retaliation from the local organizations."

"So, you're planning to send someone by plane to secretly protect Master Li Xuan's safety?"

Shiba grasped the key point and asked.

"Pretty much. See if you're free. Just treat it as a vacation."

Damaranchi nodded, feeling that someone like Li Xuan needed someone to secretly nurture him before he was fully developed.

"I don't think this is appropriate."

A-du expressed his opinion: "It would be fine if it were the Johto region, but for overseas regions like this, I think it's better not to send anyone there."

"If Master Li Xuan finds out, what will he think of the Kanto Alliance?"

A-Du and Damaranchi exchanged glances: "Chairman Damaranchi, trust Gym Leader Li Xuan. Young eagles will eventually spread their wings and soar, and trainers like Gym Leader Li Xuan need to grow through constant trials."

"Indeed, my considerations were somewhat lacking."

Damaranchi stroked his beard: "Let's leave it at that for now. Next, we need to keep an eye on the Rockets, especially around Golden City."

"Gym Leader Sabrina and Gym Leader Li Xuan are both flying to the Unova region. In the coming days, Goldenrod City will likely be under Team Rocket's close scrutiny."

"Yes, I'll be careful."

A-Du nodded, making a mental note of the matter.

…… ……

Kanto region, Golden City.

"What?! Gym Leader Giovanni, you're going to help me manage the gym? Be the acting gym leader?!"

Li Xuan's shocked voice echoed in the rest room of the fighting dojo.

He stared at the middle-aged man approaching, hardly believing his ears.

What did he hear?
Giovanni volunteered to become the acting gym leader of his own dojo?
Is this right?
This is wrong!

Li Xuan never expected that after he told Sakaki that he was going to the Unova region with Sabrina and Cattleya, Sakaki would volunteer to come and help manage the gym.

If it were someone else, like Ma Zhishi, who wanted to help, Li Xuan would definitely accept it gladly.

But here's the thing.

It was actually Giovanni who said that!
Giovanni, the mastermind behind Team Rocket, even has a certain probability of evolving into the "Rainbow Rockets"!

No, what are you after?
Li Xuan really wanted to ask Sakaki that question.

Of course, Li Xuan knew why Sakaki wanted to become the acting gym owner.

Naturally, it's because of Xiao Yin.

“Gym Leader Li Xuan, you and Gym Leader Sabrina are about to head to the Unova region. Team Rocket has been very active these days. In addition, Saffron City is the economic lifeline of the Kanto region. If there are no qualified trainers to oversee it, I am afraid that Team Rocket will take this opportunity to launch a surprise attack on Saffron City.”

Sakaki looked concerned, and even his tone of voice suggested that he was concerned about Li Xuan, Naz, and the situation in Golden City.

This left Li Xuan completely baffled.

I'm really starting to lose my composure.

Knowing Sakaki's identity, Li Xuan already took Sakaki's words as a threat.

It gives off a feeling of "You won't let me see the gym, but once you leave, I'll unleash Team Rocket on a massive attack on Saffron City."

That's too abstract, isn't it?

"That's true. If the Rockets take this opportunity to retaliate, Golden City will likely suffer heavy losses as well."

Li Xuan stroked his chin, pretending to be deep in thought.

He and Team Rocket are currently sworn enemies. Under normal circumstances, when they learn that he will be going to the Unova region for a long time, they will probably come to Goldenrod City from time to time.

In addition, many of Silver Company's current employees have been replaced by Rockets members, so their arrival frequency is unlikely to slow down much.

They might come every two or three days.

Tsk.

After hearing what Sakaki said, Goldenrod City really is in imminent danger!
Li Xuan and Sakaki exchanged glances, each harboring their own ulterior motives.

“Master Li Xuan, how about this, I will grant you a one-year governorship as a token of my sincerity.”

Sakaki's sudden words sent a jolt through Li Xuan's heart.

Oops, it’s a heart-pounding feeling!
A year as governor, that's close to 240,000 dollars!

It's not appropriate to collect money directly, so this kind of gift money for opening a governorship is more convenient.

You can get 100,000 yuan in hand.

“Gym Leader Sakaki, you’re going to all this trouble. It’s already too much trouble for you to help me with the gym. Normally, I should be the one paying you for your trouble. You’re even giving this to Governor Nian. That’s too much of a waste.”

Although for Sakaki, opening a governorship for a year was just a small amount of money, probably not much different from two hundred and forty dollars.

"So, Master Li Xuan, you've agreed?"

Sakaki smiled slightly.

"Since Master Sakaki has gone to such lengths, it would be inhuman of me to refuse again."

Li Xuan waved his hand and replied with a light laugh.
