In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

With a perfect, faint smile, Sakaki spoke slowly in his magnetic voice.

He had been disguised during the previous battles between Team Rocket and the Kanto League, and he had already resigned from his position as the Gym Leader of Viridian City before the battle in Saffron City.

Therefore, even if he uses his real identity, he doesn't need to worry about anything else.

Most importantly, he is a well-known expert in ground-based systems!

Therefore, even if he uses his main Pokémon, even with Lance present, one can only suspect, not confirm.

Of course, Giovanni's ace Beedrill cannot be used in public, at least not for the time being, until he reveals his true identity to the League.

Otherwise, Wataru would definitely have recognized Sakaki.

"Speaking of which, I'm really curious, Mr. Giovanni, why did you go to the faraway Alola region? If I remember correctly, Mr. Giovanni, your hometown is the Kanto region, right?"

Cynthia overheard their conversation, glanced at Bakura, and then asked Giovanni curiously.

Giovanni became famous very early, and Cynthia even read his book, "The Secrets of the Earth" (beeb).

Since her ace Garchomp also has the Ground type, it's only natural for her to learn from her predecessors' experience.

What Cynthia couldn't understand was why Giovanni, the strongest Gym Leader in Kanto and a successful businessman, would suddenly go to the Alola region.

“Champion Cynthia, you don’t need to be so polite. If you’re asking why you joined Alola…”

Sakaki smiled and spoke to Cynthia, then paused for a moment.

"I would say it was due to personal reasons. When Bakura invited me, I hesitated. Although I was reluctant to leave my homeland, I finally agreed to join Ether Paradise."

"As for the reason, I can only answer that it is because of interests. I have been the curator for a long time, and I also want to change to a new way of life."

Sakaki shook his head, his magnetic, steady voice tinged with a hint of 'shame,' and gave a vague explanation.

This simply means that they joined Ether Paradise for certain reasons, or to put it bluntly, they want to switch jobs.

Because he felt that Alora could offer him better opportunities for development...

“I see… Everyone has their own ambitions, so Mr. Sakaki need not be troubled by this.”

Cynthia frowned slightly upon hearing this, glancing at Bakura who was smiling. She remembered that Bakura had said he would recruit four truly top-tier trainers to serve as the Alola Elite Four.

So obviously, Giovanni is one of them! Did he win him over by using his high-ranking position in Etherland and the power of the Four Heavenly Kings?

In other words, Giovanni is a champion-level trainer?

Cynthia carefully observed Giovanni out of the corner of her eye. Although she had heard of Giovanni's great name, Sinnoh was still far from Kanto.

Moreover, she hadn't gone through the gates twice, and her understanding of Giovanni wasn't particularly deep; she only knew that Giovanni was a well-known Ground-type specialist trainer.

But Cynthia didn't know just how strong Giovanni was.

"I've heard of Mr. Sakaki's name for a long time, and I hope to have the opportunity to learn from him."

Cynthia smiled and said to Giovanni, "The fact that Bakura acknowledges me speaks volumes about Giovanni's strength."

Otherwise, Cynthia wouldn't believe that someone like Bakura would keep such an insignificant subordinate by his side.

Didn't you notice that Bakura didn't even bring his sister and his follower, the campfire?

"I would be more than happy to play against the Sinnoh Champion," Giovanni said with a polite, calm smile.

During their casual conversation, the four of them arrived at a conference room.

"Champion Cynthia, Queen Gatalia, and these two gentlemen, please come in."

Cattleya knocked twice on the conference room door, and a Officer Jenny quickly opened it, making way for the four of them.

Bakura entered the conference room, glanced around briefly, and immediately noticed several familiar faces.

"That's quite a generous gesture."

Bakura's lips curled into a smile, his eyes flickering slightly.

It seems the Elf Alliance is taking this matter very seriously, having sent so many powerful figures.

Sakaki stood a step behind Bakura, a polite, calm smile on his face, his eyes sweeping across the conference room. The first person to catch his eye was his old rival, Wataru, with his handsome, arrogant red hair.

Even among a group of powerful individuals, Yu Longdu's sharp and piercing aura made him stand out.

Beside Ferry sat a stunningly beautiful woman named Kona, dressed in a purple bodycon dress.

Kanto actually sent Lance and Kona here.

As for Kiku and Shiba, they obviously have to stay in Kanto. After all, although the Kanto Team Rocket has been eliminated, the Johto Team Rocket is still hiding, and it is impossible to send out all four Elite Four.

On the other side was a handsome young man with green hair wearing a pure white and gorgeous cloak, who was none other than Mikey, the champion of the Hoenn region!

Beside Mikuri stood Daigo, a handsome young man in a suit!

With Cynthia beside him, there are now a total of five regional champions present! Although Steven is the former Hoenn champion, no one doubts Steven's strength!

Finally, however, Giovanni looked towards another corner, where a healthy bronze-skinned man stood—it was none other than Leon, the champion of the Galar region!

"The League is indeed taking this incident very seriously." A deep look flashed in Giovanni's eyes, at this lineup.

It was even more terrifying than the Battle of Golden City!

"Ok?"

Upon seeing the person enter, Yulongdu raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on Bakura, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

He really didn't expect to run into Bakura here by such a coincidence.

Daigo and Michael looked at Bakura with considerable surprise.

Bakura smiled and nodded to the three of them as a greeting.

"This must be the Mr. Bakura that you mentioned, right? Thank you for coming."

Adeker spoke to Bakura with a friendly and cheerful smile, saying that Cattleya had mentioned to him that she would invite a friend to help.

Adek naturally trusted Cattleya's words.

"You're welcome. But I think I might be a bit redundant. A team like this can defeat any opponent."

"Especially since even the Dragon Envoy, Champion Wataru, was present in person."

Bakura shook his head, glanced at the people in the room, and then gave Yulongdu a stern look before teasing him.

This is truly an incredibly luxurious lineup; even Bakura was somewhat astonished.

The three strongest champions of the Pokémon League have all arrived!

"Humph!"

Upon hearing Bakura's words, Wataru's usually aloof expression flickered involuntarily at the corner of his eye.

Why are you being sarcastic and sarcastic the moment we meet?

However, Yulongdu still snorted softly and didn't speak. Hmm, he's developed resistance, and this kind of occasion isn't suitable for idle chatter.

"Haha~ It's always good to be prepared. In any case, we are very grateful that Mr. Bakura brought his friends to support us. Please take a seat, Mr. Bakura."

Adek laughed twice, then gestured to Bakura.

He hadn't expected the other alliances to be so accommodating, sending so many powerful figures.

Bakura and Sakaki chose two seats and sat down. The conference room was not small and could easily accommodate more than a dozen people.

After everyone was seated, Officer Jenny drew the curtains, turned on the projector, and a map of Unown appeared in front of them.

"I'm sure you all know why I invited you here. Kyurem appeared near Kagome Town a day ago."

"Furthermore, according to our investigation, Kyurem was fighting an enemy, and the opponent was Kyogre's trainer."

"The battle between the two caused extremely strong changes in the celestial phenomena and environment, resulting in wind, snow and rain sweeping across the entire northwestern part of the Unova region."

Officer Jenny spoke solemnly.

"Later, the black dragon Zekrom reappeared. After a three-way battle, Zekrom was defeated and fled. Kyurem chased after Zekrom and disappeared, ending the battle."

"The trainer who controls Zekrom is N, the king of Team Plasma. Team Plasma is an evil organization in Unova. They incite and mislead the people to liberate Pokémon and separate Pokémon from humans. Their intentions are despicable!"

Officer Jenny recounted the events with a heavy tone, her words inevitably tinged with hostility towards Team Plasma.

As civilization has progressed, humans and Pokémon have become inseparable, each being an indispensable part of the other's life.

However, Team Plasma is advocating for the freedom of Pokémon. While this may seem harmless, it is actually undermining the very foundation of human civilization!

"Hmph! Another ambitious, stinking rat."

Upon hearing this, Yu Longdu snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with an icy light. He loathed these evil organizations.

Yulongdu's dream is to create a perfect world where humans and elves live in harmony, allowing the elves to find true happiness.

····Requesting flowers·····

It's not like Ghetsis, a twisted schemer who uses the slogan of liberating the elves to disrupt order and plot to dominate the world.

Upon hearing this, Sakaki glanced at Yulongdu, a barely perceptible mocking smile curving his lips.

Where is Kyurem now?

After a moment of silence, Dan Di rested his chin on his hand and asked.

He participated in the Battle of Goldenrod City, so he knew very well that Kyurem's trainer was Orochimaru from Team Rocket!

This is the main reason why he came to Unova from Galar!

It was because they heard about Kyurem's appearance!

During the Battle of Goldenrod City, they joined forces to wipe out Team Rocket, almost completely destroying the Kanto Team Rocket's forces.

However, because of Kyurem, the leader of Team Rocket and Orochimaru retreated, and none of Team Rocket's senior executives were captured!

..............

This is utterly disgraceful!

"The Kyurem's whereabouts are still under control; it has no hidden purpose."
