In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

"The president doesn't need to worry about that. Although Alola has never been recognized by the League, we have never given up on ourselves."

Bakura smiled and leisurely smoked his cigarette.

Damaranchi frowned upon hearing this; something about it didn't seem quite right...

"We've already prepared the Elite Four, the Gym, the League Building, and the Arena ourselves."

"The formation of the alliance is just a matter of issuing a notice."

Bakura's smile was somewhat sinister, but what he said immediately shocked Tatsuma Ranki.

Meanwhile, Yulongdu stared at Baku Ryono in astonishment.

Does this mean... even if the Pokémon League doesn't approve, Alola is prepared to go it alone?

Holy crap? Bakura is awesome!

Chapter 533 Kusanagi Ryo asked me to work for him (Please subscribe to the full chapter)

Our gym, Elite Four, League buildings, and arena are all ready. Now, all that's left is to announce the formation of the League. What else needs to be done?

Even if you disagree, we can do it ourselves!

Without a doubt, that's what Bakura means.

The formation of the Alola League is now unstoppable!

“In that case…” Yulongdu raised an eyebrow and subconsciously turned his gaze to Damaranchi.

Sure enough, Damaranchi's expression was not very good at this moment. Bakura's words were practically a coup.

You either agree or you don't? No problem, we Alora will do it ourselves!

Moreover, regardless of which choice is made, Alola has undoubtedly broken free from the control of the Pokémon League.

Compared to Dama Ranchi, Bakura was much more relaxed, comfortably lying in a chair smoking and waiting for Dama Ranchi to speak.

"...That would be perfect, but choosing gym leaders and the Elite Four isn't such a simple matter, Bakura. We still need to do a thorough review."

After a long silence, Damaranchi forced a somewhat stiff smile and said to Bakura in a deep voice.

He never expected this; Alora had actually gone this far.

Judging from Bakura's expression, there seems to be absolutely no room for maneuver.

"This is no need for Chairman Damaranchi 43 to worry about. I personally selected the Gym Leader and the Elite Four. They are qualified in both character and strength."

Bakura chuckled lightly and said calmly, "Still thinking of making trouble for the Four Heavenly Kings, the guild master?"

"President, let's not beat around the bush. Over the years, Dr. Kukui has come to Guandu many times to apply for the formation of an alliance, but you have rejected our request every time."

"Do you really think Alora is no good?"

Bakura stubbed out his cigarette, lowered his voice slightly, and spoke calmly to Tamalanqi.

In any case, he was not in the wrong. Kukui came to Guan Yu almost every year to apply for the establishment of the Alola League.

This year, in an effort to dissuade Kukui from his idea, the league even arranged for Kukui to fight against Lance!

Lance is the strongest Elite Four champion in the league. Let Kukui fight Lance? Kukui naturally has no chance of winning.

Isn't this a deliberate attempt to humiliate Kukui?

Do they really think the Alora are easy to bully?

Upon hearing this, Yu Longdu's lips curled into a sarcastic smile, and he glanced at Damaranchi out of the corner of his eye, preparing to see how the Grand Master would explain himself.

Yes, the Pokémon League is in the wrong regarding the Alola issue.

(beeb) Now that Alola has developed and Bakura has emerged as a powerful figure, the League of Legends has naturally lost its former strength and confidence.

Yulongdu never had any goodwill towards those politicians and lawmakers, and it was only thanks to Damaranchi that he was a very good person and always acted as a peacemaker.

Otherwise, the Four Heavenly Kings of Kanto, led by Yulongdu, would have already fallen out with those councilors.

"...Things aren't that simple, Bakura, you Alola..."

Damaranchi was taken aback by what he heard, and then his gray brows furrowed even more. Indeed, he didn't have a good reason to explain this matter.

It's simply a matter of the Ultra Beasts in Alola. After all, Alola isn't a large region, and it's an island-based system. Plus, the Ultra Beasts themselves aren't fully understood yet.

The councilors looked down on the Alora region, and Damaranchi had no good solution.

"Alright, Chairman, these things are all in the past, and I don't want to bring them up again. If it's about Ultra Beasts, you can forget about it. Our Aether Paradise has already successfully researched Ultra Beasts."

"As for the geographical area, with Groudon's help, the Alola region is now no smaller than other regions."

Bakura gently spun and toyed with a Poké Ball, interrupting Damaranchi's words, a smirk playing on his lips.

"..." Damaranchi remained silent, feeling utterly overwhelmed.

Bakura was far too powerful and fearless.

That's normal, though. If everyone in Alola is united, their biggest asset in the Pokémon League, the popular support, will be useless.

Otherwise, incite people in other regions to boycott Alola? On what grounds? Just because Alola formed its own alliance?

Isn't this what you guys have been doing, relentlessly pushing and refusing to establish a league in Alola? Now that they've established one themselves, you're going to boycott it?

How come your Pokémon League is so awesome?

Most importantly, even if we wanted to use force to coerce them, there weren't many good options.

Didn't you see that even the Dragon Taming was crushed by Bakura? How are they supposed to fight all these top-tier legends?

"We didn't intend to oppose the Pokémon joining us. Isn't the establishment of the Alola League a good thing? Of course, if you are unhappy because we created the League on our own, then there's nothing I can do about it."

Seeing that Dama Lanqi didn't speak, Bakura shrugged and said indifferently.

Yes, that's the art of language—putting yourself in a vulnerable position, forced into a corner. Didn't you see the sneer on Yulongdu's face?

He practically wore his dissatisfaction with certain people in the league on his sleeve, haha~

As expected, Ah Du, who hates evil like poison, is truly admirable.

"The Alola League... is certainly a fortunate thing to be established, but this matter is of great importance, and we still need to discuss it further."

Damaranchi remained silent for a moment after hearing this, then said in a deep voice.

"Of course, you can discuss your own things, and we'll build our own alliance. We'll have nothing to do with each other."

Bakura didn't stand on ceremony when he heard this, still playing the game of negotiating?

"President Damaranchi, I can tell you definitively that this is the will of all the people of Alola. The League will definitely be established this year, and it won't matter if the Pokémon League denies it."

Ignoring Damaranchi's darkening expression, Bakura sneered.

"We Alola have risen up. If that doesn't work, the League is welcome to come and test our strength."

"Of course, we are not threatening you, nor do we intend to stir up world chaos. It's just that the way the Alliance treated us a few years ago was truly disheartening. I think Damaranchi understands what I mean, right?"

"If you really can't accept it, just treat Alora as an independent region."

Bakura said calmly, "Alola isn't afraid of the Pokémon League right now, so Bakura isn't backing down at all; that's how domineering he is."

If you want to talk things out, then let's talk things out. If you don't want to and are unhappy about it, then let's have a fight.

"Bakura, you're really putting me in a difficult position."

Damaran's expression turned somewhat ugly; Bakura's words were simply outrageous.

And what do you mean by an independent region? Are you kidding me?

As for going to war with Alola, even if we disregard whether we could win the war with Bakura's 'nuclear weapon', it would be a completely unprofitable endeavor.

"Alright, let's have a proper discussion about the Alola League."

In the end, Damaranchi sighed and compromised. Bakura had already said all that, so it was clear that he was determined.

There's no point in continuing this stalemate; let the Alola League be formed if it is.

Chapter 534 Would You Be a Member of the Alola Elite Four? (Part 2)

The Quartz Conference has finally come to a successful conclusion, and the people of the Quartz Plateau are finally preparing to return home. Ahead of the town, a group of people are saying goodbye.

"Come visit Alola next year, and I'll definitely treat you to a good time."

Bakura patted the crimson shoulder and smiled at the group of people in front of him.

"The gyms and battle zones are very challenging, so you can give it a try."

"Don't worry, I will definitely go." Crimson nodded.

"Of course! We'll definitely challenge you at the Alola Grand Prix next year."

Ash clenched his fist with great enthusiasm, clearly showing that this adventurous young man was already looking forward to next year's trip.

Pikachu, perched on Ash's shoulder, was also very cooperative, adorably encouraging Ash.

"Haha~ Ash, I hope you can still smile next year." Lily-Ai covered her mouth and chuckled.

Given Ash's personality, if he were to challenge a gym, he would definitely choose the highest difficulty level, right?

Hmm, Lillie is already imagining Ash's smug face when that happens.

"Professor Oak, Principal Naruya often talks about you. If you have time, take Green to Alola to visit him."

Bakura chuckled twice, then turned his gaze to Oki Yukinari and teased him.

Oki Yukinari and Naruya Oki are cousins, but now Oki Yukinari can be said to have a large family.

As for Kenya, he runs a school in Alola all by himself. Although Kenya has now fully integrated into Alola, he must still miss his family very much.

"Sure, I'll go to Alola next year." Yukinari Oki was taken aback, then gave a wry smile.

"I hope you'll allow me to study Ultra Beasts then. Of course, it would be even better if I could also have my body examined by your legend."
