Pokémon: The Zen Trainer

"why?"

Songye raised an eyebrow and looked at Asu.

"Because if you think about what the higher-ups think, you'll lose badly, and losing too badly will damage the dojo's reputation, hahaha."

Asu said with a smile.

"Matsunoki, you seem to have a lot of confidence in Asu?"

"Of course!"

Asu was full of confidence.

Pine Leaf smiled and said

"Hehe, it just so happens that the trainers that the Bell Tower and the Bell Tower have hired this time are quite strong. I don't think Bian Xiang has the ability to defeat them both."

"Want to take a gamble?"

Asu looked at the pine needles and said.

"it is good!

I bet Trumpeter will win!

"I bet on the Bell Tower!"

"I guess the Bell Tower!!"

Asu and Songye looked at Abi.

Abi looked at Asu and Songye and said, "I feel like I'll be ostracized if I don't say something."

The three of them laughed again.

There are quite a few exchanges between the three dojos in the Chengdu area.

Suddenly, a staff member rushed toward the three of them.

"Gym Leader, urgent report! Team Rocket has launched an attack on Azalea Town!"

"All the trainers in the surrounding league who can provide support have set off, but due to road damage, it is estimated that they will arrive in about 4 to 5 hours."

Abi's expression changed. The Rockets? ???

Are they remnants of the Communist Party in the Chengdu area?

"No! We have to go back right now!! Longtai and the others are still participating in the insect-catching competition!!"

Abi ran straight outside.

"Don't worry, I'll take you there!!"

Asu grabbed Asi and said.

"My Pidgeot can reach Azalea Town in an hour and a half. I will notify the trainer at the Violet Gym with seven or more badges to go directly to Azalea Town. We should be able to get there in 45 minutes."

Abi looked at Asu.

"Thank you."

"Me! I'll go too!"

Pine Leaf raised his hand and said.

"you??!!"

Asu looked the pine needles up and down.

"You're too heavy. Adding another one would make you fly slower than an eagle."

"Besides, the two of us can go to Hinoki Town! You just stay here and have your meeting!!"

"Come out, Pidgeot!!"

"let's go!!"

With a loud cry, a giant bird soared into the sky.

Songye looked up at the two people who had already disappeared.

Actually, you could have sent another elf to accompany me...

"The meeting of the Matsuba Pavilion Master is about to begin."

The staff member next to him looked at Song Ye and cautiously reminded him.

I don't want to attend that stupid meeting anymore.

Song Ye walked dejectedly toward the conference room.

Chapter Ninety-Eight: Showing Great Compassion

Three people, dressed in black uniforms with an "R" printed on them, swaggered down the street.

The streets were filled with the sounds of crying and screaming.

"Isn't this sound pleasant?"

Hayakawa looked at his companion and asked.

"Finish the task Lance assigned you as soon as possible!"

Matsumoto Ichiro said with a frown.

"It's okay, we still have at least forty minutes to have some fun."

"Heh, you have to maintain control of Azalea Town within forty minutes. If you fail, you'd better prepare to be killed by Boss Lance."

"In just ten minutes, there's no real resistance on the streets anymore. The suppression is basically complete. Easy peasy. We have plenty of time left to play around."

"Boss Lance is right, none of the main trainers at the Azalea Gym are here."

"Otherwise, do you think it would have been so easy if we had launched a feint attack a month ago to probe their strength, and then lay in wait for almost a month before seizing this opportunity? If those bug-wielding guys at the Hinoki Gym were here, it wouldn't have been so easy."

"Now, most of the trainers in Hinoki Town have retreated to gyms and schools to protect the local people."

"What we need to do is prevent trainers from running around and breaking into the Slowpoke Well to interfere with Lance's plans."

"Due to the road closures, the fastest trainers are expected to arrive in about 4 hours."

"According to Lance, even if it's Abi's side, it will take at least 40 minutes to get here."

"Can Abi really get here within forty minutes?"

"Don't worry about all that, just do as Boss Lance says!!"

Hayakawa grabbed a boy who hadn't spoken until now and said...

"Newcomer, you're so lucky to get to participate in an event like this right away!!"

"In the old days, someone like you wouldn't even have been a fringe member of Team Rocket!!"

"There's nothing we can do. The owner is gone, and the Rockets' name can't attract any decent trainers."

Suddenly, a faint sobbing sound reached Hayakawa's ears.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"what sound?"

Hayakawa tugged at his ear, a hint of excitement on his face.

"I think I heard a little girl crying."

"Don't have a relapse! I'll accept your disgusting habit."

Matsumoto Ichiro said with a frown.

"Five minutes! Five minutes will be enough."

Hayakawa looked excited.

Matsumoto Ichiro looked at Hayakawa.

"Hurry up!!"

"Uh-huh!!"

"Brother Hayakawa, I think we should complete the task assigned by Boss Lance first."

The boy, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.

Hayakawa turned to look at the boy, smiled, and lifted his foot.

Bang! A powerful kick sent the boy flying.

"Who do you think you are? Don't spoil my fun."

"Come out, Zubat!! Go find that girl."

The giant beak-bat let out a screech and flew toward the direction of the crying.

Song Yuanyilang watched indifferently.
