Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master...

"Is it Professor Oak from Pallet Town? If it really is him, then it's perfect."

Ash quickly led everyone to the center of the park to contact Professor Oak.

As soon as the call connected, Ash was startled by the man-eating face of Oak.

"Ash, I...you...ramble on and on!"

Professor Oak scolded Ash for five minutes straight before finally stopping.

"You know it took me half a month to wash away the slime and the stench from the lab!"

"Oh, Professor, the situation was urgent. I had no choice but to resort to this measure for the sake of the Pokémon in the center."

Since he had tricked Professor Oak, Ash could only wipe his sweat and let the other man vent his anger.

"Let's not talk about that. I'm calling you today because I have something important to tell you."

I quickly explained the whole story to Professor Oak.

“Sure, no problem. I have plenty of space in my backyard for Hakron and the others.”

"Thank you so much, Champion Yukinari-sama!"

Upon hearing Professor Oak's agreement, Uncle Caesar excitedly pushed past Ash to express his gratitude to the professor.

"No need to be so polite, I'm no longer a champion."

"Time flies, but in my memory, the championship has always been yours."

"Professor, you were a champion?!" Ash really didn't know that.

"That was a long time ago, Ash. Don't forget to send Dragonair and the others over in a Poké Ball. I have to go now."

There are four in total: one big and three small.

There's a teleporter in the center of the park. Ash first caught Dragonair and Dratini in Poké Balls and then used the machine to teleport to the research lab.

But then one of the Dratini refused to go into the Poké Ball and went straight to Ash.

He stubbornly voiced his opinion.

"Mmm~ Mmm~!"

Xiao Zhi sensed its emotions through the waveguide.

"Hmm, don't you want to experience that moment again when your mother was taken away and you were powerless to do anything about it?"

Ash bent down and looked the Dratini in the eye.

"Great eyes! I can make you stronger, but the training will be very rigorous. Can you accept that?"

"Mi~!"

It turned around and said goodbye to its mother and brothers and sisters.

"Okay, we're partners from now on!"

Ash took out his Poké Ball and caught Dratini.

[Ding! New side quest triggered: Fat Man's Ambition: Evolve Dratini into Dragonair]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins +800; Speed ​​+2; Free Attribute Points +2; Skill: Dragon Tail]

"I caught a Dratini!"

We still need to demonstrate the standard movements.

"Xiao Zhi, have we forgotten something?" Xiao Xia suddenly asked.

"No... I haven't forgotten anything... Team Rocket!"

Those three idiots are still frozen in the ruins of Dragon Valley.

Chapter 50: Capturing Team Rocket

After dealing with the Hakuryu incident, Ash went to Team Rocket's large ice block.

"You guys are frozen for so long and you're still perfectly fine, you're really tough!"

In Ash's aura perception, the life force of the three of them was so vigorous that it was about to burst forth.

Open the secret manual of the Waveguide Hero and find a special move inside.

[Spatial Transfer Seal: Can be activated by thought; the person stamped will be teleported to within half a meter of the user, regardless of their location!]

[Bound by souls, use with caution! Cannot be blocked or unblocked!]

Legend has it that in ancient times, before Poké Balls existed, heroes used this method to summon Pokémon.

A normal human soul can only bind a maximum of 6 souls.

The thought of being tied to these three for life made Xiaozhi's heart ache terribly.

But there's no way around it, the trio of idiots are just too dangerous.

This time they've brought out a waveguide shield; I can't even imagine what they'll dare to bring out in the future!

We can only give them some insurance for now. After the Space Transfer Seal is used, the three of them will be equivalent to Ash's summoned beasts.

Break the ice in an area behind the Rockets.

Then, he placed his palms on their backs and used his wave power to inscribe intricate runes deep into each person's soul.

Each one must be pressed for a full 20 seconds.

The energy of the seal quickly formed blue patterns that spread from their backs to their entire bodies, bursting out with a bright light before disappearing immediately.

"That should work, right?"

Ash practiced this move for a long time; it was originally meant for Misty and the others.

If he fails, then he'll have no choice but to take drastic measures against the Rockets.

With a snap of his fingers to activate the seal, Ash felt a portion of his Aura power instantly drained away.

However, with his current aura power, that amount is negligible for Ash.

The Team Rocket trio, who were originally inside the ice block, suddenly disappeared from the large ice block with a flash and appeared on the grass half a meter in front of Ash.

"Ugh, my head hurts so much."

Kojiro felt like he was catching a cold; his whole body was ice-cold.

"Where are we, meow?"

Musashi and Meow Meow quickly regained their senses.

"You're awake? Let's play a game."

"Ah, you little rascal!"

The three of them reacted as if they had seen a ghost when they saw Xiaozhi, and immediately hugged each other in a panic.

"I'll give you 10 chances. I'll close my eyes and count down three minutes. If you can escape within the time limit, I'll let you go."

"But if you get caught, I'll give you a good beating. If you still can't escape after ten tries, you'll be my subordinates for life!"

After giving them this wicked suggestion, Ash started counting down without waiting for their agreement.

"What, do it for a lifetime?"

"Idiot!" Musashi quickly punched Kojiro and Meowth.

"That brat gave us a once-in-a-lifetime chance to escape, and you're still wasting your time? Show him how good Team Rocket is at escaping!"

The trio, realizing what was happening, immediately began to run away.

Xiao Zhi gave them extra time, and then snapped his fingers.

A flash of light.

"How could this be?!"

"We've already run outside the park!"

Their faces still held the happy expressions of having escaped, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, they were back in front of Ash.

"Looks like you guys aren't very good at escaping!"

Xiao Zhi grinned maliciously as he beat them up, then started counting to himself again.

But the Rockets' tenacity showed not only vitality but also spirit, and the bruised and battered trio began to run away again.

Furthermore, they learned their lesson and believed that such a bizarre event must have been caused by Ash's Aura.

He repaired the waveguide shield within a minute of escaping and put it back on his head.

What a group of geniuses!

Unfortunately, Ash snapped his fingers again.

They reappeared in front of Ash.

"Ah! An actress's life depends on her face, don't slap her face..."

"What on earth is going on, meow!"

In just a few tens of minutes, they were beaten up ten times by Xiao Zhi.

"Hmm, the stamp is really useful!" Ash was very satisfied.

"Then, according to the agreement, you will be mine in life and in death."

Team Rocket knelt at Ash's feet, nodding incessantly; they were utterly terrified.

"As long as you obey my orders and do my work well, I will not treat you unfairly."

Ash snapped his fingers as he moved forward, and Team Rocket followed his movements, constantly flashing.

Seeing this, the trio nodded even more vigorously.

"You guys stay with the Rockets now and act as my inside agents for my future actions."

The three of them looked distressed.

"I will pay off your debts."
