Chapter 87 The Reasons We Can't Lose

Five days later. Carlos region, Miare International Airport.

A private business jet bearing the Carlos Alliance logo sat quietly at the end of the runway. Beneath its wings, several imposing figures stood solemnly.

The Carlos Alliance was never formally established, but its logo was designed early on and is now used throughout Carlos.

Even in private, Yan Kai is already being called "King Yan Kai" by many Carlos people.

Below the business jet, a middle-aged man clad in heavy armor, wearing a goose-feathered coat, reached out and tightened his grip on the Poké Ball at his waist. With his other hand, he pulled out his phone from a gap in his armor and glanced at it: "It's almost time."

"Hasn't that big star arrived yet?"

It was Zhimi who spoke. Even in his exquisite chef's uniform, an undeniable gloom lingered between his brows. He crossed his arms and coldly scoffed, "Is a top student in the academy busier than me, the head chef?"

"Haha, Zhimi, don't be so harsh."

Beside him, Dr. Blatano, with his signature fluffy curly hair and wearing a blue shirt, waved his hand gently, trying to smooth things over: "Karuni is, after all, Carlos's future, and she always has to be well-prepared for occasions like this."

"The future? It's not too late to talk about the future after you've gotten past my hurdle." Zhimi remained noncommittal.

"Sorry everyone! I'm late!"

Just then, a clear, cold female voice, like a silver bell, fell from the sky.

Everyone looked up in unison, and saw a pure white figure gracefully descending from the clouds, supported by Gardevoir's psychic powers, and landing steadily in the center of the nine people.

The future Carlos champion, the current head of the Miare Academy, and Carlos's hottest movie star, Karuni.

"Karuni, are you ready?"

Vladari spoke in a deep voice, his fiery red hair shining like a roaring fire lion in the sunlight: "Your opponent is said to have the strength to defeat a legend, and is a natural-born superhuman."

"I will give it my all."

Karuni slightly raised her chin, turned around first, and walked towards the gangway that symbolized the journey.

She is the youngest member of the team, yet she is seen as Carlos's hope for revival.

Bearing the future of a region on her shoulders, she had no way out.

She has a reason not to lose this battle.

"Gentlemen!"

Yan Kai, representing the exchange group, suddenly straightened his chest and slammed his fist heavily onto the iron armor, producing a dull and chilling roar.

"Kanto League's King Kikuko suffered a crushing defeat yesterday. Galar spent a full thirty years elevating their championship to godlike status. Today, we will use our bodies as swords to cleave a new era for Carlos!"

"For Carlos!"

The shouts of the ten representatives converged into an invisible torrent, soaring straight into the sky.

The private jet's cabin door slammed shut, and amidst the roar of its engines, this exchange team, carrying the ambitions of a region, officially set its sights on Sinnoh.

Sinnoh, the Celebration Academy freshman dormitory, 30th floor common lounge.

"King Kikuko... she actually lost."

Cynthia curled up on the sofa, holding Gible tightly in her arms, who was also somewhat dazed.

During the televised broadcast, the commentator's passionate voice echoed in the empty dressing room, but the dressing room itself was rather quiet.

"Yes, the invincible Kanto mythology has finally fallen."

Pal took a deep breath and his fingertips flew across the phone screen: "The internet is in an uproar, and some people are even stirring up trouble, saying that the strong one is never Kanto, but only Oki Champion."

This year's World Championships concluded yesterday.

In the finals, Galilee champion Mastedt won the championship with near-absolute dominance, officially becoming the world's number one active trainer.

"It's just some opportunistic rumors."

Prantina pursed her lips: "But I heard that Grandma Kikuko was badly criticized on the Kanto Forum. The offensive comments were almost as bad as when she was criticized for the Mustard Bamboo King."

"Plantina... Cynthia is still here."

Diamond quickly nudged Plantina with his elbow and whispered a reminder.

"Ah! I'm sorry, Cynthia! I absolutely didn't mean that!"

Prantina suddenly woke up and looked at Cynthia, whose face was slightly somber, feeling extremely guilty.

She grew up listening to the heroic deeds of the Mustard Bamboo King and had only respect for the old man who dedicated his life to Sinnoh.

She was simply lamenting why these heroes who gave their all had to be nailed to the pillar of shame just because of one failure.

Before, they had all brought endless glory to their respective regions.

"It's alright, it's true, Grandpa really did his best."

Cynthia forced a smile, trying to change the subject: "Is today the day the Carlos exchange delegation arrives?"

"Yes, they should be landing today, but the specific itinerary hasn't been announced yet."

Pal replied, a hint of fighting spirit igniting in his eyes.

For a pragmatist like him, it's better to focus on upcoming regional exchanges than on changes of power in other regions.

"Squeak!"

Just then, the door to room 3001 slowly opened.

The four people in the lounge instinctively looked over, and then, the air fell into a deathly silence.

"Cattleya??"

Prantina's voice trembled with a hint of uncertainty.

The girl who emerged completely overturned her usual impression of Cattleya.

Cattleya shed her unchanging white dress and donned an extremely luxurious retro court outfit.

Beneath that head of brilliant golden hair that reached her ankles was a light, almost translucent white blouse. V

At her neckline, a delicate silk bow trembled slightly, and two slender straps hung down in front of her chest, rising and falling gently with her steady breathing.

Beneath the cardigan, a light pink fitted long dress outlined the girl's graceful figure, with an intricate wave lace trim around the hem that stopped perfectly at her fair and slender ankles.

Elegant, noble, and sacred.

In that instant, she didn't seem like a trainer, but rather like a royal princess who had stepped out of an old oil painting.

Because of Gadria's dazzling brilliance, Lu Sha, who had grown to 1.3 meters tall and become much more robust, suddenly became just a background figure.

However, seeing the surprised expressions on their faces, Lu Sha continued to laugh heartily.

This is his custom-made battle robe, which cost him 20 yuan, all for today.

With the arrival of Carlos's delegation, a large number of videos will inevitably circulate in both regions.

Although we are still inexperienced in terms of strength, we cannot afford to lose in terms of appearance.

"Speechless with amazement."

Diamond stared blankly and remarked, "Cattleya, are you going to some high-class ball?"

"Today I am the college's welcoming representative, and I will go to the main gate to greet the Carlos exchange group."

Cattleya spoke softly, her hand resting naturally on Lu Sha's broad dorsal fin, as if she were leading her most trusted knight.

She walked gracefully toward the elevator, her steps slightly hesitant due to the extravagance of the gown Lu Sha had commissioned.

Through telepathy, she clearly sensed the amazed expressions of Cynthia and the others.

How could someone who has always been seen as a monster be considered beautiful one day?

This feeling is strange.

But I don't dislike it.

She enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention.

In particular, this is the change that Lu Sha brought to her.

"Cattleya!"

Just as the elevator doors opened, Prantina suddenly shouted.

Cattleya tilted her head slightly, and Lu Sha also turned around curiously to look at the excited rich young lady, O.

"Keep it up! Take my share with you!"

Plantina clenched her fist, her eyes sparkling: "Go tell those bastards from Carlos that we Sinnoh are not to be trifled with!"

"it is good."

Caldelia replied with only one word, concise yet powerful.

Lu Sha chuckled and gave Plantina a triumphant thumbs-up.

As the elevator doors slowly closed, the man and the shark disappeared from everyone's sight.
