It wasn't until a small, inconspicuous piece of glass caught Su Hao's attention amidst this massive mountain of metal that Su Hao noticed it.
He could vaguely sense that the fragment was out of place in this small hill made of scrap metal.
"Sister Shen, I'm going downstairs for a bit."
Su Hao called out to the front seat, then left the back seat under Shen Meizhuang's questioning gaze and walked towards the small metal mountain.
"Then you have to be careful. There are some sharp objects protruding from the metal mountain. They've rusted from being exposed to the wind and sun. If you get scratched, you'll get tetanus!"
Su Hao didn't turn around, but nodded in response. Under Shen Meizhuang's gaze, he easily crossed the steep and uneven slope, avoided the Tetanus Holy Sword hidden in various tricky angles, and easily found the glass shards under the guidance of the waveguide.
Su Hao did not pick it up with his bare hands. First, he covered his palm with a stable waveguide to avoid causing secondary contamination. Then, Su Hao picked up the fragments and examined them carefully in the sunlight.
The glass shards looked like part of a test tube, with some slightly dried liquid still on them, making them look extremely suspicious.
But this alone is not enough to form a complete chain. Su Hao used this piece of glass as a medium to try to find its companions in the metal mountain by relying on its incongruous aura.
The search lasted for half an hour.
In different places, Su Hao found more than a dozen fragments, and on one of them, he found a mark.
The red and blue English letters are on one side and are incomplete because they are broken, but they can still be identified as one of the twenty-six letters of the alphabet by their features.
R!
Su Hao was very familiar with this letter.
In the world he visited during his first trial, this was the symbol of Team Rocket.
In this world, it represents the R Research Institute, an extremely evil organization that has been working in the shadows, colluding with the Nova Organization, persecuting countless Eevee lives, including Eevee Yeevee, and conducting cruel genetic experiments on them!
Was it a deliberate act of leaving such a mark to provoke, or was it simply a case of being fearless and believing that their actions would never be discovered?
Su Hao didn't know the details, but there was one thing he did know.
"Finally... I've caught you guys red-handed!"
As if in response to Su Hao, the Deluxe Ball of Ye Yibu at its waist swayed slightly, seemingly eager for revenge.
..........................
After carefully packing the fragments into PVC bags, Su Hao got back into Shen Meizhuang's car without revealing what he had found.
On the way back to the power plant, Shen Meizhuang seemed hesitant to speak. Su Hao assumed she was curious about what he had gone to the metal mountain for, but considering the important evidence he had, he didn't explain.
Back at the power plant, Su Hao said goodbye to Shen Meizhuang and Shen Zishan. After learning that Shen Lingyun had gone shopping in the city center, he declined their invitation to stay for dinner and headed straight into Mingjin City.
We'll discuss the lightning incident involving Shen Lingyun later; the important thing right now is... the R Research Institute!
Although the research institute had never provoked him, the feud had been brewing ever since Ye Yibu became Su Hao's partner.
He wanted to see what kind of monsters and demons had infiltrated the Divine Continent Alliance to cause trouble!
Since Su Hao himself set the location to Mingjin
After the incident, the Trainer Missions app kept popping up with notifications of upcoming missions, which is enough to illustrate the scale of this event.
The fact that there hasn't been any major unrest so far is largely thanks to the fact that there are quite a few powerful trainers in Naruto, who are able to suppress the rampaging trend of wild Electric-type Pokémon.
At least, that's what Su Hao learned from the Trainer Forum.
As for the most accurate information... well, you should ask this gentleman.
Su Hao dialed the number Li Xiang had given him. After a few rings, the call was answered, and Li Xiang's panting voice came through: "Su Hao? Why are you calling me at this hour?"
Su Hao could clearly hear the explosion coming from the other end of the phone, and could fully imagine that Li Yingxiang was going through a fierce battle.
Su Hao didn't delay and went straight to the point: "Mr. Li, are you in Mingjin City right now?"
On the other end of the phone, Li Xiang looked at the two strange "Pokémon" that seemed to be made of cables, and while commanding the Magic Mask Cat and Xeno'jiiva Cat in battle, he asked in surprise, "How did you know...?"
Su Hao said in a deep voice, "Because I'm also in Sakura City. I just resolved an incident at a friend's power plant where Electric-type Pokémon were acting up, and I also found the source of their berserk behavior."
"Um...you mean the shard of glass with the R Research Institute logo on it?!" Li Xiang froze, his expression turning horrified. He twisted his body, narrowly avoiding an electric shock, and shouted into the phone, "Where did you find that thing?!"
Su Hao was stunned for a moment, then replied, "On a mountain of abandoned metal near the power plant..."
How many fragments were found?
"There are only a dozen or so pieces; it's impossible to piece together a complete test tube."
"Bang!" Li Xiang couldn't hold back and blurted out a national treasure, then jumped up and cursed angrily, "Those damn beasts from the R Research Institute! Besides opening three ultimate holes, they actually hid one more! I'll bang your mothers!"
Li Xiang yelled into the phone, "Are the glass shards still on you? Check how many you have left! The more shards that disappear, the closer the location where you found them is to the opening of the Ultimate Cave!"
"When the Ultra Beasts descend from the Ultra Void, your friend's power plant and everyone there will be in mortal danger!"
"Chao! I'm currently fighting two Ultra Beasts and I can't break free at all. You have to hold on, I'll come help you as soon as I've dealt with this!"
Li Xiang left those words and then hung up the phone.
Su Hao was stunned for a moment. After quickly processing the information, he took out the PVC bag he carried with him and found that only one piece of glass remained.
Su Hao's expression instantly turned ugly. He immediately summoned the Emerald Warrior Eagle, mounted it, and flew rapidly towards the power plant.

Chapter 585 UB03: Lightning
The Shen family's power plant.
After Su Hao left, Shen Zishan strolled into the computer room and saw many machines that had been forcibly destroyed by Magnemite and Magneton. He couldn't help but sigh.
Shen Meizhuang returned a step later than him. Seeing her father's dejected and useless appearance, she became serious, slapped Shen Zishan hard on the back, and said, "Why are you so downcast? Money can be earned back."
"Sizzle s ...————"
Just as Shen Zishan was about to retort, suddenly, a sound like an electric current rang out throughout the computer room, followed by a series of rapid and bright electric sparks flashing across the machines in the room.
As a burnt smell rose, the lights flickered on and off.
Before Shen Meizhuang could even begin to investigate where the problem was, the flashing lights and machines seemed to be overwhelmed and went out completely. After a loud stop, the entire power plant was plunged into darkness and shut down.
At this moment, both Shen Zishan and Shen Meizhuang's expressions froze.
Especially Shen Zishan, the phrase "as if he had lost his parents" was not enough to describe his grief at this moment. He simply gasped for breath, his eyelids rolled back, and he fainted from grief.
"Dad!" Although Shen Meizhuang was shocked, she was not as bad as Shen Zishan who fainted.
After calling out several times without response, Shen Meizhuang gritted her teeth, looked at the pitch-black environment, and bent down to support her unruly old father. She planned to leave first, settle him down, and then go to the main power switch to check on him.
Shen Meizhuang helped Shen Zishan step by step out of the machine room and into the outdoors. As she expected, all the facilities in the power plant had stopped.
This is no longer a matter of whether or not money will be paid; the slightest mistake could lead to an investigation by the alliance into whether there was any intention to maliciously cut off power or cause damage, and could even result in a lawsuit.
However, considering that this incident was caused by the actions of Magnemite and the three Magneton, the League will probably not turn a blind eye to it.
Shen Meizhuang helped Shen Zishan to her jeep, intending to take him to a nearby hospital first.
After finally getting Shen Zishan into the back seat, he got into the driver's seat and immediately turned the key to start the engine.
Suddenly, Shen Meizhuang looked up at the distance outside the car window, where there stood a motionless object that looked somewhat like a human-shaped power line.
In an instant, cold sweat soaked Shen Meizhuang's back. She opened her eyes wide and watched in disbelief as the object began to shake. Then, she leaped up and landed on the cables connecting various parts of the power plant. Her flexible body wrapped around them, and a burst of bright blue electricity began to erupt.
As it moved, the lights and machines throughout the power plant kept turning on and off, and countless currents surged toward it.
Shen Meizhuang knew perfectly well that the real culprit was the unknown Pokémon in front of her!
A bright blue light shone from the Pokémon-like bronze hand. Shen Meizhuang quickly started the engine and stepped on the gas, and the jeep shot off like an arrow.
The next second, a bright blue attack composed of pure electric current roared in, the enormous energy blasting a large crater into the spot where the jeep had been standing just a second before.
Shen Meizhuang felt her heart was about to jump out of her chest, and all she could think about was escaping this place.
However, the mysterious Pokémon relentlessly raised its hands, and a bright blue light locked onto the jeep's trajectory. The next attack... was sure to hit!
In the moment of crisis, a silver meteor came from afar, like a cannonball, knocking the mysterious Pokémon off the cable and crashing it into the open ground in the distance.
Shen Meizhuang didn't know who had made the move, but she knew that this place was not a place for an ordinary person like herself to stay for long under these circumstances. In order to prevent the Pokémon that made the move from having to worry about protecting her, Shen Meizhuang chose to accelerate and drive the jeep in the opposite direction to escape.
"A wise judgment, that's the kind of reaction a normal person should make."
High in the sky, Su Hao, riding the Emerald Warrior Eagle, smiled and thought that Shen Lingyun's sister's judgment was truly outstanding. Being powerless isn't terrible; what's terrible is knowing you're powerless yet still charging forward, even causing trouble for others.
Shen Meizhuang's actions saved him a lot of trouble.
"Next, it's time to figure out what to do with you..."
Su Hao lowered his eyes
Looking at the Pokémon that was blasted into the ground by Metagross but still seemed unharmed, its physique was far superior to that of the college students' Pokémon in the high school league.
Pokémon: Electric Tree
Attribute: [Electric]
Gender: [None]
Feature: [Beast Enhancement]
Level: Mid-stage Dojo
Ultra Beast, Ub:03 Thunder - Electric Beam!
Fortunately, this is an Electric Beam that has just left the Ultimate Cave and hasn't had time to hunt other creatures to trigger the "Beast Boost" trait.
