In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

Then Kikuko seemed to remember something and asked Director Officer Jenny.

“Since yesterday, Natsume has been missing. According to her father, there is no way to contact her at all.”

Officer Jenny shook her head and replied that Sabrina is the Gym Leader of Saffron City and a very strong fighter.

But is it a coincidence that she disappeared at this time?

Kikuko narrowed her cloudy eyes slightly; she didn't believe it was such a coincidence.

"Let's just go in. The Rockets are such scoundrels. Today, we can wipe them out completely."

Yu Longdu said calmly, but his tone was filled with an intense chill.

Rockets leader!

A cold glint flashed in Yu Longdu's sharp eyes. The incident in Rainbow City was still fresh in his memory!

"Let's begin the operation." Kikuko glanced at the impatient Ferryman and, without further delay, gave the order to Officer Jenny.

"Yes!"

……

The top floor of the Shiruff Company building, the president's office.

"It seems they've already broken in."

Bakura took a small sip of red wine and glanced at the surveillance camera. Police officers and trainers had already entered.

At this moment, only he and Sakaki remained in the office.

Bakura had already sent the three girls down with Sabrina, since it wouldn't be appropriate to bring these three girls along when he was about to fight his opponent.

"As planned," Sakaki replied calmly, his composed expression showing no sign of the gravity of facing a formidable enemy.

Even when the opponent is about to strike...

"Speaking of which, I've never understood why Mr. Bakura stayed in Kanto. Could you explain it to me?"

Sakaki poured himself another glass of red wine and looked at Bakura across from him with a rare hint of curiosity, asking him a question.

He had indeed always found this strange, Bakura being the vice chairman of Etherland.

Despite holding a high position and wielding great power, Bakura has remained in Kanto for almost half a year now...

Is he really that free? Of course not!

Sakaki understood this very well; through his interactions with Bakura, he realized that Bakura was a person with extremely strong motives.

Someone like that must have his own reasons for staying in Kanto, but Sakaki couldn't understand it.

"Is it because of the reason I stayed in Kanto?" Bakura lit a cigarette for himself.

"Mr. Sakaki should know about Etherland, right?"

“Of course.” Sakaki nodded. Ever since Bakura appeared, he had already sent his subordinates to inquire about Ether Paradise.

And it's no secret at all; the Aether Foundation is the largest corporation in Alola, practically ruling the entire country. No other power can compare to the Aether Foundation.

Even more, the Ether Foundation has built an artificial island, which could be called the fifth island of Alora.

This is also the origin of the name Paradise of Ether.

“The Etherland has now reached its peak in Alola, which is also the reason for the collaboration between me and Mr. Giovanni when we first met.”

"But this is not the true purpose of the Ether Paradise."

Bakura exhaled a smoke ring, and amidst the swirling smoke, a strange smile played on his face.

"So that's how it is. So the expansion was just a bluff? Ether Paradise never intended to expand to other regions?"

Upon hearing this, Sakaki's deep eyes flickered slightly. The Ether Paradise had reached its peak in Alola, and there was no other way but to expand to other regions.

This was Giovanni's initial thought, and it's also the thought of a normal person.

But now Bakura says that this is not the real purpose of Ether Paradise, and Sakaki immediately thinks of a deeper meaning.

There is no league in Alora!

"Impressive! Truly impressive! Mr. Bakura, I knew I had underestimated your Ether Paradise. What terrifying ambition you have!"

Once Sakaki understood this, he couldn't help but clap lightly in praise of Bakura. It seemed that he had ultimately been outmaneuvered by Bakura.

What is Team Rocket? An evil organization! Even though they've become the underground overlords of Kanto, they're still an evil organization.

And what about Etherland? It started as a legitimate company, and now it's formed its own Alola League!

Even if the Pokémon League wanted to suppress the Alola League, it would be very difficult because Aether Paradise has a very good reputation in Alola.

The people of Alola will be overjoyed and cheer for the establishment of the Alola League!

This is the difference between Etherland and Team Rocket!

"It's just a prediction, but it's a pity that Mr. Sakaki is going to have a final battle with the League. This is not what I want to see."

Bakura chuckled, shrugged, and made a sarcastic remark. He had originally intended to use Team Rocket to draw the attention of the Pokémon League.

However, an unexpected health event occurred with Sakaki, and this plan fell through.

Sakaki smiled faintly; although he had been outmaneuvered, he wasn't angry.

After all, so-called cooperation is nothing more than each party getting what they need and using each other. If he can't even understand this, then he, Sakaki, is nothing special.

Just then, the door to the president's office was violently blasted open by 350, and a gust of wind blew in as the door shattered.

"It seems the guests have arrived."

Bakura stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray, glanced at the door, and chuckled.

"Of course they are guests, but unfortunately, they are guests with ill intentions."

Sakaki put on the black bowler hat beside him, stood up, and said calmly.

He didn't want to completely expose his identity like this, and he also disguised himself a little, because as long as he didn't die here.

He has other things to do.

"How leisurely you rats are."

A cold, sharp voice rang out, and Lance, wearing a champion's cape, walked in slowly with his head held high, his icy gaze falling on Giovanni and Lance.

"Is this the way the alliance operates—to wantonly destroy other people's property?"

With his hands in his pockets and a calm smile on his face, Sakaki spoke slowly and deliberately.

Bakura, on the other hand, glanced behind Miyuu Watari.

Kikuko, Kona, and Shiba were all expected, but there were two more.

Bakura's eyes flickered slightly. One of them was Daigo, whom he knew well, and the other...

————————————————————————————

(Guess who the other one is! This is the fourth update, and there will be more tonight to make up for yesterday's! Please give me flowers and votes!)

Chapter 318 Team Rocket Actually Captured the Three Legendary Birds (Please Subscribe to All Chapters)

With bronze skin, a handsome and sunny face, he wore a black, tight-fitting shirt printed with swords and shields, paired with white leggings and shorts. A red champion's cape draped over his shoulders, exuding a cheerful and carefree air.

It was none other than Leon, the Elite Four Champion of the Galar region!

"Daigo and Dan-di are really going all out."

Bakura narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the six people in front of him. This lineup could be described as the strongest trainer lineup in the entire world at present.

The strongest Elite Four in Kanto, the former champion of the Hoenn region, and the undefeated champion of the Galar region!

That old guy Damaranchi really thinks highly of the Rockets.

"Property? You really dare to say that, you stinking rat. You've already taken this Siluf Building as yours?"

Upon hearing Sakaki's words, Wataru smirked coldly. Beneath his short, blood-red hair, his handsome, cold face wore a sinister expression.

Sakaki's words were simply hilarious.

Is the Shiruff Building his private property?

"Of course, look~ if you don't believe me, you can ask President Siluf over there, right?"

Sakaki didn't seem to care about Lance's sarcastic tone, and smiled faintly as he gestured to President Silph, who was lying in the corner, towards Lance and the others.

At this moment, President Siluf, who was usually pampered and lived a life of luxury, was looking excitedly at Yulongdu and the others.

Because his hands and feet were tied and he couldn't move, but when he saw Yu Longdu and the others, the president continued to wriggle and struggle, and made 'woo woo woo' sounds for help from his gagged mouth.

Yulongdu and the others frowned slightly as they looked at President Silph. They hadn't expected that Sakaki would actually tie up this world-famous successful entrepreneur here.

And judging from his disheveled appearance, he has obviously suffered a lot these past few days.

"You're disturbing our guests, Mewtwo."

Hearing the voices coming from his side, Giovanni casually called out to Mewtwo behind him.

Mewtwo turned its gaze to President Silph, a faint blue light flashing in its eyes. An invisible psychic power controlled President Silph, causing him to crash heavily into the wall!

With a muffled thud, President Siluf let out a sharp cry of pain, rolled his eyes, and fainted.

"I apologize, everyone. I haven't been strict enough with my children's discipline. I hope you won't mind, right?"

Sakamoto didn't turn around, maintaining his mature and composed smile as he spoke lightly to Wataru and the others.

It was as if the person who had just been knocked unconscious was not a well-known global entrepreneur, but rather their own pet husky.

Upon hearing this, not only Lance and Lorelei, who were both fiercely opposed to evil, but even Daigo Kiku and Dante frowned.

The leader of an evil organization is so arrogant in front of them!

"You rascal."

Upon hearing this, Yulongdu's expression grew even colder, his gloomy eyes fixed on Sakaki.

This guy actually dares to be so arrogant in front of them!

Abusing President Shiruff in front of them is a complete disregard for them!

"You filthy, stinking rat, go to hell and repent for your sins!"
