Pokémon: Starting with Lucario and Gardevoir

The intense battle had left Haoyan's face and hair covered in a layer of dust.

He unleashed his superpowers, constantly using teleportation and blinking.

... ...

High in the sky, Sakaki reluctantly turned back to look at the arena where he had just fought.

They discovered that Haoyan had already left.

There's a feeling of emptiness in my heart.

Just now, Haoyan asked him a question.

"Why not use Beedrill to fight him?"

In fact, Sakaki had the answer in his heart, but he just didn't say it.

Sakaki has mixed feelings about Hiroko.

Indeed, Haoyan was a major threat to him.

It is the biggest stumbling block on his future path.

At the same time, he and Haoyan shared a mutual respect and admiration like that between two heroes.

Most importantly, he had expectations.

I look forward to the world with light that Haoyan spoke of!

What if he fails in the future!

No matter how hard you try, you can't change this messed-up world.

But, if there are still Haoyan.

That means there is still hope!

Therefore, he didn't let the strongest Beedrill battle against Hiroki.

... ...

Chapter 433 Bringing the Three Holy Birds Home

Rumble! Rumble!

It felt as if the mountains were shaking and the earth was trembling!

Countless people who heard the enormous roar were filled with lingering fear!

A massive explosion occurred at the Rockets' headquarters.

The explosion nearly destroyed half of Yuhong City.

The once bustling Yuhong City was now reduced to a sky ablaze with flames.

Outside the city center of Yuhong City.

A large number of evacuated citizens gathered here.

"All investigators, get to work!"

"Put out the fire!"

"Search the city to see if there are any citizens who haven't had time to evacuate!"

Watari shouted loudly, directing the investigators' actions.

Everyone started to take action.

The other Tenno (gods) of the Kanto region also participated in the rescue efforts.

... ...

At this moment, Haoyan was resting in a temporary camp.

He solved the most troublesome problem.

The rest of the rescue work can be left to them.

After the intense battle with Sakaki, Haoyan felt completely drained.

Exhausted, I closed my eyes and fell into a deep sleep inside the tent.

The three sacred birds stood guard outside the tent.

... ...

A week later, at Yu Hong's temporary resettlement site, the Alliance held its grandest press conference yet.

Countless reporters rushed over from all over the country.

The first seat at the press conference was a ferry.

"After our intensive search, we can confidently say that 90% of Team Rocket in the Kanto region have been wiped out!"

"We'll ramp up our manpower and continue the pursuit of the remaining Rocket Team members!"

"Although this operation did not capture Team Rocket's leader, Giovanni."

"But basically, the Rockets can't cause any more trouble!"

"Peace has been restored to the Kanto region!"

The audience erupted in enthusiastic applause.

Hearing that Team Rocket has been wiped out is definitely good news for the Kanto region.

"At the same time, we would like to express our special thanks here."

"Investigators from various regions!"

"Especially Hoenn, the Gym Leader from the Hoenn region, and Cynthia, the Champion from the Sinnoh region!"

"Director Haoyan played an extremely important role in this operation!"

"Without him, this operation would not have succeeded!"

"And Miss Zhulan also deserves much credit."

"On behalf of myself and the investigators of the Kanto region, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Director Hirohiko!"

After Du finished speaking, he stood up.

He bowed deeply to the camera.

This bow was not only to express gratitude for Haoyan's contributions to the Kanto region.

Du also expressed his gratitude to Haoyan for that slap in his personal capacity.

Wake him up completely.

... ...

"Mr. Wataru, this time, Rainbow City, Goldenrod City, and Vermilion City have all suffered losses to varying degrees. What are the Alliance's considerations?" the reporter began to inquire.

"Today, I received the alliance's plan..."

"Next, we will start from several aspects to fully resume the post-disaster work in these cities..." Du spoke eloquently to the camera.

Haoyan didn't participate in the press conference; he was too lazy to deal with these trivial matters.

Right now, he's troubled by something.

... ...

"Haoyan, what are you planning to do?" Zhulan asked curiously, pointing at the three sacred birds.

"Hmm, I don't know either..." Haoyan shrugged helplessly.

Having resolved the matter in Kanto, it was time to prepare to return to the Hoenn region.

This time, I stayed in the Kanto region for quite a long time.

I should also go back to the Kaina Dojo.

Although the Kaina Gym has Sabrina as a free helper, assisting with the gym's affairs.

However, he still has to make an appearance every now and then, after all, he receives such a high salary.

After this incident, the Three Sacred Birds have decided that Haoyan is the right person for them.

Wherever Haoyan goes, they go.

Haoyan was also interested in bringing them under his command.

However, the three legendary birds had previously been affected by the Dark Sphere.

They don't want to get into the baby ball.

In this situation, how to bring it back to the Hoenn region became a problem.

"Why don't you fly back?" Zhu Lan suggested.

"Fly back?"

"The Hoenn region is more than 9500 kilometers away from the Kanto region!"

"It takes almost half a day to get there by plane!"

"It would probably take three to five days to fly back on wings!" Hao Yan sighed helplessly, rubbing his forehead.

"What should we do then?" Zhu Lan spread her hands, just like Hao Yan did. "If the three sacred birds are willing to come with me, I'd be willing to fly for half a year, let alone three or five days!"

"Well, it seems like this is the only way..."

Haoyan thought about it and realized that this was the only way.

Should we take a boat back?

No, the ships in Kuroba City are almost completely destroyed.

There are no civilian ships at all.

Moreover, taking a boat takes even longer.

"It seems this is the only way..."
