"Don't come on! Don't try to interrupt me. I didn't try hard at all." Nazi didn't buy it at all. She threatened with her eyes, "Don't say discouraging words. Sooner or later, you will be better than them. Otherwise, you are questioning my judgment! My judgment is never wrong, understand?!"

As she said that, she held Firio's face with both hands, and even used her super powers to make him unable to move, and kissed him forcefully.

The blue light filled the air, filling the quiet room with beauty.

......

......

"Hmph... Where's your hooligan energy during the day? Don't think I can't see it. Even Mewtwo is like-minded and has been hanging out with you!" Nestled in Firion's chest, Nancy's little face was flushed, very cute, and she was still relentless, "You can even deal with such a bad-tempered guy. If I hear you say such useless things again, I will beat you up!"

Bai Shengsheng raised his fist high and his threatening words were full of momentum, but unfortunately, it was mostly eliminated by his little girl's posturing.

"Okay, you're right. I'll beat Sakaki with my fists in a year and kick Akahana in two years. Then I'll rule the mountain and take both of you home as my concubines. Then I'll go and rob a hundred or eighty of his men." Gently stroking Nancy's extremely smooth long hair, Firio began to let himself go again, talking nonsense.

"you dare!"

In an instant, murderous aura filled the air, and she swung her fists, feeling a slight pain in her chest.

“Hiss——” After taking a deep breath, Firion immediately admitted his mistake and raised his hands high, “I dare not! I was just teasing you.”

"Humph... If you dare to think of the latter, I will kill you! As for the former... I've made a note of it, because you said so!"

Facts have proved that for a good actor like Naz, expressions are always spontaneous. Her almond-shaped eyes can be murderous one second and full of teasing the next.

With a flash, she jumped out of Firio's arms lightly, turned on her feet, and stood in front of him with a sweet smile.

"Well... I think we should get down to business first." After a moment's silence, Firio suddenly became serious, picked up the paper on the table and was about to set off, "Let's go, let's go find Senior Ge Jihua and Ma Xiu, things like this need to be handed over by them, ordinary people like us don't carry much weight."

“Don’t run!” Nazi chased after him, holding onto Firion’s arm tightly, and said in a tender voice, “Don’t try to change the subject, and don’t try to pretend you didn’t say it. I’ve written all this down, and you can’t deny it!”

"Okay, okay, I'll try my best..." Firio had no choice but to go along with Nancy, who was even more unreasonable than Korney when she acted like a spoiled brat. "But we still have to do business first. The intelligence that Sakaki gave to Team Rocket is very valuable, but it's useless if we keep it in our hands. If we give it to them, we can use the dead Damir as a shield. As for whether the Alliance believes it or not, I'm sure that as long as they have some basic brains, they won't worry about the source. Besides, they must have their own sources of information. The main purpose of this intelligence is to confirm and reconcile differences."

"Well... yes, that's good. I'll listen to you!" After holding Firio's arm and shaking it, Nancy thought for a while and then smiled with ease.

The dead cannot speak, and the living need a plausible excuse. As long as they have it, no one will be stupid enough to dig into the matter.

Firion, who is increasingly familiar with the working style of the Carlos Alliance, is very clear about this truth. Nancy, who has never been a so-called naive person, but has truly experienced countless major battles in the Kanto region, naturally knows this very well.

The two people looked at each other with tacit understanding, and without saying a word, all the words were understood by each other.

After leaving a snack for the injured or sleepy little ones, the two walked towards the entrance hand in hand.

Plans cannot keep up with changes. Faced with a powerful enemy, rest is secondary. We still have to make a trip to the alliance branch.

......

......

However, that may not be the case.

-----------------

Coincidentally, just as Filio walked to the door, just as he pressed the doorknob, a knock on the door came from outside.

When the door opened, a big hand was still hanging in the air, maintaining a knocking posture, "beating the air".

A majestic figure who had been missing for a long time suddenly appeared in front of the two of them, blocking the way out.

"... Qiao An, what are you doing?"

Looking at the familiar face that disappeared silently that day, Firio vaguely thought of some bad developments, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

The person who appeared before him was none other than Joan, the captain of the Storm Force, who had agreed to train with Firio and Korni in Yingxue City, but had suddenly disappeared without any warning, and had left the two of them without a word for an unknown period of time.

Behind him, there was a "dumpling man" with embarrassment written all over his face - although there was a large piece of gauze on his face, almost completely covering his facial features, it was still recognizable as Novak, who had just separated not long ago.

There is no doubt that compared with Joan, who looks decent and honest but is actually not a decent person at all and is full of bad intentions, Novak is more or less honest and upright. The only half of his face that is left is now full of embarrassment.

"I'm so sorry, Firio, I know you're injured, I shouldn't be so late..."

"Okay, Novak, stop dragging your feet." Unfortunately, before the honest man could finish his words, Joan interrupted him carelessly, "Don't worry about my friendship with Filio, and let me tell you, he has more tricks in his head than you do. You are a fool, and you are fine, so what can happen to him? I bet you a hundred Alliance coins that he must be pretending to be sick and hiding."

As he spoke, he punched Firion lightly on the chest and said, "Right? You must be like me, too lazy to argue with those people, so you made an excuse to slip away. But... I really didn't expect that it's only been a month and you've..."

The fire of gossip burned fiercely in the eyes of a certain sturdy man. The mischievous look tested Firio's well-trained psychological quality, but naturally there would not be much result.

After some attempts, nothing was achieved.

But this is obviously not the end.

Nazi's eyebrows were like a crescent moon, and she smiled gently: "?"

"!"

"Deng deng deng"

The murderous intent so strong that it became materialized instantly enveloped the talkative Qiao An, but it just didn't spill out at all.

Beneath that gentle smile, it seemed as if there was an invincible prehistoric beast hiding, which frightened Qiao An so much that he stepped back repeatedly and almost fell to the ground.

Faced with a life-and-death crisis, even Qiao An, who didn't read entertainment news, suddenly remembered the identity of the person in front of him.

"Ms. Nazi, I'm so sorry! I didn't expect you to come to our Kalos. It's really a pleasure! I heard that you helped us a lot before. On behalf of the Storm Troops, I would like to thank you!"

All those little thoughts about gossip flew out of the window immediately. The strong man knelt down and bowed fiercely. His etiquette was impeccable.

"Okay, stop playing around and get down to business." Filio, who was trying hard to hold back his smile, pretended to be calm and punched Joan in the chest as well. His tone was quite teasing and unfriendly. "You've been missing for so long and suddenly reappeared, and you brought Mr. Novak to see me. Tell me, what do you want me to do? If it's nothing urgent, come with me to the branch office to find Senior Ge Jihua and Ma Xiu. I have information for them to report to the Alliance Headquarters."

"Branch?" After hearing Filio's destination, Qiao An said seriously, "Then don't worry, Filio, I'm here for this too. If there is anything, tell me and I'll handle it directly. Even if it exceeds my authority, I can report it directly to the chairman. This is the authorization I got before I set off. No one in Aromatherapy City will be more efficient than me. But before that, I have to complete my mission first."

"Hmm? Your mission?" Firio frowned slightly. He realized that an ominous premonition seemed to be coming true. "Okay... please come in and take a seat."

......

......

"Seeing is believing. Your Dragonite is so strong that it's frightening. Even the Heavenly King Doracena would be envious if she saw it. After all, she still hasn't found a talented baby dragon, so she can only train some miscellaneous dragons."

Sitting on the sofa, looking at Baofeilong who was concentrating on eating without stopping, Qiao An couldn't help but sigh.

He also has powerful flying Pokémon, but he has no resistance to such a big guy.

"【King Dorasena can only train a few miscellaneous dragons - Qiao An】...Okay, I've made a note of it. If I have the chance to meet King Dorasena, I will definitely convey your words exactly as they were. I believe she will be very happy."

Putting down the notebook in his hand, Filio looked at Joan seriously.

"?"

"are you human?"

Joan's rough face was filled with big question marks.

Novak couldn't bear it anymore and tugged at Joan's clothes: "Ahem... Captain, he's just joking with you, let's talk business first..."

"Ah? Oh, right, right, let's get down to business!" Fearing that Filio would argue with him, Joan quickly stood up again, took out a sealed envelope from his backpack, and showed it to Filio, "Filio, this is top secret. The chairman sealed it himself and explicitly ordered me to open it only when I see you. I'll open it now."

With a light cut of the paper cutter, the envelope was cut open, revealing a thin page of paper inside.

Joan's expression was more solemn than ever before. Novak quickly stood up and stood behind him.

"Filio, I am now conveying to you the Kalos Alliance's special call-up order. After learning that you defeated the senior executives of Team Flare and obtaining the intelligence you submitted, the chairman personally issued a handwritten order to commend and call you up. I will deliver it directly from the headquarters. I hope that you can participate in the attack on Team Flare's headquarters in three days as a trainer of the alliance with the Storm Troops, and contribute to the future of Kalos. This is his token of love. He said that you would agree to it for the sake of this friendship badge."

As he spoke, he leaned forward slightly and solemnly handed the conscription order along with a small badge to Firion.

"Hey... I knew it. You guys have got my pulse right, right?"

Firio sighed softly, stood up, took the call, held the ranger friendship badge that was exactly the same as his own, and read it carefully.

Different from the temporary call-ups I had seen before, for some reason, this time it was written by the chairman himself. It was more like a letter than a call-up. There was no long official language, the words were sincere, and in just a few lines, the kind voice and appearance of the old man appeared before my eyes.

Filio smiled awkwardly: "The chairman wrote it himself, and you personally escorted it. You really think highly of me... Is it necessary to make such a big fuss? And do you trust me so much?"

"The chairman said that if we can't trust you who have made many great contributions, then there will be only a handful of trustworthy people in Carlos. Then there is no need for us to continue this battle." Qiao An's face was meticulous and his tone was serious. "Besides, you have been reborn compared to a few months ago. You are no longer a so-called talented but immature newcomer, but a trainer who can defeat [Eagle] Damir. There is no doubt that we need your fighting power."

"Has anyone told you that you're not good at persuading people?" Firio sat back on the sofa leisurely, leaning against the soft leather cushion, calm and composed. "There's no enemy, no promise, no guarantee, just a black-and-white emotional card thrown to me, and you're reciting the lines the old man gave you like a wooden man, with no expression. The only advantage you may have is that you memorized the lines."

"I..." Qiao An scratched his head awkwardly, "There's nothing I can do!"

Novak, who was standing next to him, was also surprised to see his captain like this for the first time, but he still did not forget his duty. He followed the captain and said earnestly:

"Filio, we really are..."

"So, I agreed."

Without waiting for Novak to finish his words, Filho gently took Naz's hand. There was no fluctuation in his tone, as calm as if he was saying that he was going to have a midnight snack later.

“Eh…eh?!”

"what?!"

Joan and Novak obviously didn't react to this sudden turn. Their brains were overloaded for a moment, and they stood there with their mouths grinning in sync.

"Okay, let's end this topic. On to the next one. I have a more important piece of information. Since you are here, I don't have to make an extra trip. Bring it to the Chairman. The source of Team Flare's plan is still Damir. You'd better deliver it in person. As for whether to accept it or not, that is not my task, and I don't want to get involved."

Smiling at the strong man and the wounded who were teased by him, Filio did not give them any time to react. He folded the warrant and put it in his pocket, then handed over his note and put it in Joan's hand.

"As for the time and place of the assembly, as well as the means of transportation to get there, tell me once it's decided. My Pokémon and I won't have much combat ability in the next two days, so we can't accept combat missions. I need to keep the specific reason confidential. I can only tell you that it is related to the battle in the afternoon, but we will basically be able to recover in two days. If there is nothing else, you can withdraw, and be sure to deliver the intelligence. It's getting late, and we should rest."

After giving orders in rapid succession, Firion immediately used his unique skills to see the guests off. He lay back on the sofa cushions calmly, closed his eyes and rested, feeling very comfortable.

-----------------

That night, in the clear night sky, a large aircraft was passing through the sky with a thick tail flame. The huge hull was like a giant beast, made entirely of alloy and seemed indestructible.

In the cabin of the spacecraft, the square-faced middle-aged man smiled awkwardly, but he also concealed a hint of joy that his plan had succeeded.

"So, you had already made up your mind when you set out to take me from Aromatherapy to Mingshui tonight? Why didn't I realize before that a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes like you could do this to me?"

Firion slapped the bed, which was no match for the Aromatherapy Gym's guest room, in annoyance. The more he looked at the burly man in front of him, the more disgusted he felt.

"I didn't mean to do this. Time and transportation are too tight. I came here for two tasks this time. One is to recruit you to join the war. Of course, it is a pleasant surprise that Miss Nancy is willing to participate." Qiao An scratched his head embarrassedly and handed over a box of self-heating dinner that is standard for the Storm Troops. "The other is to transport the materials of the Poké Ball factory to Mingshui Town intact. The chairman will be waiting for us there in person. This is one of our trump cards. He has planned it long ago, but he almost made a mistake. The situation in the headquarters is worse than expected. It is really riddled with holes... Fortunately, we have you and the intelligence support of our colleagues in the international police."

"...Joan, how can you say that without blushing?" Filio grinned, no longer in the mood to complain.

Although he has criticized the current situation of the Carlos League being like the Flare Team's home base countless times, the reality always refreshes his cognition.

"Oh, forget it..." With a long sigh, Firio didn't want to argue with him. He just felt tired. "Tell me, which big shots are leading the team this time? Can Nancy and I just follow behind and curry favor with them? I think I need to remind you, remember to look for saviors like AZ Exhuayi."

"I know you are a little disappointed with the current state of the alliance, but there is one thing I can assure you, Firio, that is, you will definitely see a force far beyond your imagination in Mingshui Town. Just like this Carlos-class combat ship, we are not wasting our time. At least the people of the Storm Force are definitely not fools."

Patting Filio's shoulder, Joan's eyes were firm and confident.

Under the cover of night, the spaceship sped past, heading towards the front line of the war, and also heading towards the final chapter of countless grievances and entanglements.

The ideological dispute that has been going on for three thousand years will finally come to an end in the next few days, no matter what the outcome.

......

......

In the small single cabin, after sending away Joan who was in the way and without Nancy's company, Philio had a brief phone call with Korni who was busy dealing with the attack in Sara. After dinner, he had nothing to do.

My right eyelid had been twitching slightly, and a vague sense of foreboding was stirring in my heart. Even after eating twice the usual amount of midnight snack, the feeling did not improve.

Looking at the night outside the small round window alone, Sakaki's information once again lingered in his mind - Zygarde, the leader of the three Kalos gods and the guardian of the ecosystem.

If He were to suffer inexplicable contamination, what disastrous consequences would result? No one could predict, and no one was willing to imagine.

After thinking it over, Firio closed the cabin door tightly, sat on his bed, touched his forehead lightly with his fingertips, and a round lavender mark quietly emerged.

[Big cat, I think I need your help in an emergency. 】

Chapter 211: The Remnants Left Behind by the Times (7600)

November 11th, Mingshui Town.

The once peaceful riverside town has now turned into a huge military camp, filled with the atmosphere of war.

More and more trainers gathered here, coming and going in the streets and makeshift camps, sending out danger signals.

According to the intelligence brought by the international police undercover adventure, the exact location of the headquarters of the remnants of the Flash Team has been successfully locked down, in the wilderness about 80 kilometers west of Mingshui Town.

At the same time, the enemy's troop deployment has become clear at a glance. Except for the sabotage teams roaming around, the elite forces of the entire organization have gathered at the headquarters carrying supplies looted from various places, ready to fight a decisive battle with the alliance in one fell swoop.

With only one corner against the entire Carlos continent, their strength is naturally far from being a match, but... what is really terrifying is the details of the plan that has been hidden until now by the cunning Claire.

In the entire Kalos, even if Kalune possesses the genuine champion ace, Gardevoir who has broken through the legendary boundary, will never be the opponent of any regional god.

Not to mention, the strongest Zygarde may show up at any time due to Team Flare's conspiracy.

Fortunately, according to the intelligence, there is still time.

The Flash Team hiding in the dark still needs enough time to completely digest the resources from all over the place, especially the black liquid that was mined like crazy, in a strange way that no one knows.

After learning of the Flash Team's crazy plan, the usually inefficient Carlos Alliance began to deploy troops with a strong sense of urgency, and joined hands with the International Police Crime Countermeasures Department that came to support them to fight the enemy, and a steady stream of personnel and supplies were drawn from all over Carlos.
