Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master

As Xiao Zhi thought about it, he got hard, his fists hardened. It seemed he would have to find time that night to teach those two scoundrel sisters a lesson.

And you must make them return the stolen books, since the ancient books record how to obtain the Heart Drops.

It might also contain other important information, which we need to retrieve.

Ash and his friends then spent the rest of their time playing with Latios and Latias.

They played so wildly, leaping and tumbling, oblivious to the world around them (?).

In short, we had a lot of fun. The main reason was that Ash, as a male instructor who was proficient in Pokémon psychology, was able to quickly become friends with the Pokémon through his skillful petting techniques and accurate praise.

[Ding! Latias: Affection +10; Intimacy +5]

[Ding! Latios: Affection +5; Intimacy +2]

Latios and Latias also showed Ash and his friends their unique move, Dream Reflection.

Latios can project all of his senses onto Latios for everyone to see.

The eyes of the brother and sister lit up at the same time, and Latios became invisible and flew out of the garden, soaring through the rivers and skies of the water city.

It was like watching a holographic projection, so immersive and novel. With Latios' help, Ash and his friends explored the entire Water City.

Ash wouldn't normally dare to wander around the city of Water City like this, given his tendency to get lost.

Without someone to guide him, he could get lost in the complex environment of Water City for a whole year.

After having a great time playing with the Blue and Red Planes siblings, Ash and his friends said goodbye and returned to their home.

Today they've become good friends with Latios and Latias. It's truly delightful to spend time with these pure-hearted and kind-hearted Pokémon.

However, it won't be long before Xiaozhi has to deal with people who aren't so innocent and kind.

That night, after Misty and Serena had fallen asleep, Ash went alone to a deserted mountaintop in Water City.

After confirming that no one was around using his waveguide sensor, he took out the two Sweet Balls he had used to subdue the Phantom Thief Sisters.

After looking at the ball and thinking for a while, Xiaozhi decided to take them one by one.

First, take out the sweet ball from her older sister Sanna, put the other one away, and toss it gently.

The Poké Ball emitted a pink beam of light, and after a series of heart-shaped effects floated by, a blonde woman with a unique hairstyle appeared in front of Ash.

"Ahem, where am I?"

A fleeting look of love crossed Sanna's eyes; she clearly hadn't grasped the situation yet.

Chapter 176 Treat bad people the way bad people treat you

"How did I suddenly end up here..." Sanna scratched her head, her mind filled with questions.

Her memory was stuck on the fact that something had inexplicably hit the back of her head.

Then it was as if I was locked in some kind of space, and when I opened my eyes again, I was here.

However, when she looked up and saw the man in front of her who was as strong as an iron tower, she immediately turned around and ran away.

Her movements were swift and decisive, without any hesitation, befitting her title as the number one female thief.

Ash watched indifferently as she ran a distance, then silently picked up the Sweet Ball, recalled her, and released her back in front of him.

The blonde beauty looked bewildered. Although she didn't know why, she suddenly felt a strange sense of kinship towards Ash, but the unknown fear in her heart quickly suppressed this feeling.

"How is this possible? How could a human be trapped inside a Poké Ball... What did you do!?"

As she spoke, Sanna retreated, her eyes fixed fiercely on the deadly poison needle in Ash's hand, ready to be fired at any moment.

Of course, such a small action could not escape Ash's eyes.

"Compared to such truly evil people, Rika was kind-hearted to the point of seeming naive and innocent."

Without wasting words with her, Xiao Zhi instantly grabbed Sanna's hands and, to her astonishment, crushed all the hidden weapons on her wrists with a forceful squeeze.

Then he grabbed her by the neck and said, "If you don't care about your sister's life, then go ahead and try to escape again."

Yes, Ash was threatening her, which is something a decent person wouldn't do.

But that's just the kind of person Ash is; he likes kind people and Pokémon and wants to protect them.

But he also knew that being too kind was a weakness.

Bad people must be severely punished, but everyone in the Pokémon world is too kind.

Then Ash has no choice but to play the villain.

Ash wouldn't stand up for any morals when it comes to scum like the Phantom Thief Sisters who don't care about other people's lives.

He firmly believed he was doing the right thing, and his heart was steadfast and his spirit upright.

Even Lucario acknowledges Ash's sense of justice.

Upon hearing Lian's name, Sanna immediately stopped her little antics and was thrown to the ground by Ash.

She covered her neck and took a long time to recover before finally looking up and asking, "What exactly is your purpose?"

"My name is Ash. All you need to do now is tell me where the book you stole from Water 7 is."

"I'll tell you only after you release me and Lian."

When Sana heard Ash make his demands, she assumed she could negotiate.

But Xiao Zhi grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up.

It has to be said that Sanna's neck shape is perfect, and her skin is very smooth. It feels really good to pinch her. Xiaozhi is a little addicted to pinching her.

He lifted her up in front of him, and Xiao Zhi's rough breathing was directly onto Sanna's face.

"You don't seem to understand the situation. This is an order, not a discussion." Ash threw out another Poké Ball.

A Pokémon exuding an evil aura appeared there; its entire body was black, and its roar contained a captivating power.

Sanna was immediately stunned; this kind of thing really needed Xiao Hei to handle.

Ash originally brought Pikachu with him when they set off tonight, but he put a fierce mask on Pikachu.

When it tries to make a deterrent move, it only comes across as cute, so we have no choice but to leave it behind to guard the house.

"Little Black, Dark Cyclone!"

It suddenly raised its evil head, and black light waves instantly condensed and then suddenly released, annihilating everything around them.

The gust of wind, carrying mud and rocks, lashed Sanna's face, and she swallowed hard.

"If you don't speak within three seconds, the next Dark Cyclone will hit your sister."

Of course, Ash was just trying to scare her. Not killing people is Ash's bottom line, and Gilluta was just turned into an idiot by him.

However, Xiao Zhi's acting skills are still very good. Originally, he was too sunny and upright, so when he said such things, he was usually not very convincing.

Therefore, in order to increase his sense of intimidation, Ash deliberately wore the title of "enemy of humanity".

Now, in Sanna's eyes, Ash exudes an evil aura, especially that terrifying smile on his face, which makes her tremble.

With ruthless methods and strangely powerful Pokémon, she had no doubt that Ash would keep his word.

For her own sake and that of her sister, Sana reluctantly led Ash to the sisters' secret base.

And their secret base just happened to be located on the small hill that Xiaozhi chose. Sure enough, people who do bad things always have similar eyes.

The secret base is a small, mobile spaceship that can transform into a car or an airplane—quite high-tech.

Upon arriving here, Sanna searched through the books and then handed the thick ancient book to Ash.

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the "Water City Grand Compendium": The most precious book in the Water City, recording all the important events in the Water City from ancient times to the present! (Have you heard? The mayor got beaten up by his wife yesterday for peeping at the neighbor's widow taking a bath! What? Then hurry up and write it down!)]

"What kind of book is this? Is it even legitimate?!"

However, it seemed to be true. Xiao Zhi glanced at the ancient book in his hand and put it into his spatial storage.

Sanna was startled when she saw Ash casually make the large book in his hand disappear instantly.

She had originally planned to use her amazing thieving skills to steal the book from Xiaozhi as well.

“Mr. Ash, now that you’ve received the book, shouldn’t you hand over my sister and me to Ms. Officer Jenny?”

The fact that a thief would suggest going to see the police shows that she really doesn't want to stay with Ash anymore.

"You want to go to the Alliance Prison to serve your time?"

"Yes, yes, I have deeply reflected on my actions."

"I feel I made so many mistakes before, and now I desperately want to atone for them." Sanna, this naturally wicked woman, was trying her best to force what she thought was a kind smile.

But who would believe such nonsense? Sanna is clearly not a good liar, not even as good as Kojiro and the others. It's too fake.

"With your skills, you could probably escape in half a day," Xiao Zhi chuckled, patting her cheek.

Sana felt uneasy when she heard that Ash seemed to be refusing.

"But as a citizen of the Alliance, according to the Alliance's laws, one should..."

"I don't have a League here!" Ash pinched Sanna's smooth cheek, silencing her from saying anything more.

Just now, Ash saw the list of Sana and the others' loot at the base.

They stole the treasures of countless innocent people, stealing from everyone regardless of whether they were commoners or the wealthy, as long as they found any precious jewels.

They've caused so many families to be torn apart and lives lost; these are no ordinary thieves, and we must strike hard.

These two inherently evil individuals, if handed over to Officer Jenny and sentenced to two years under League law, will at most be punished.

It's way too light!

This is not enough to make up for the mistakes the two sisters made in the past. Ash wants to completely reform them, both physically and mentally.

From now on, let us begin to atone for our past actions!

However, unlike Rika, Sanna and Lian are thoroughly evil, completely devoid of any kindness in their humanity.

The methods of education and reform used on Pear Blossom were no longer effective for them.

Then we can only use the alternative effect of the special Sweet Ball. As long as we make them lose their minds ten times, they will become Ash's lifeblood from now on.

However, he had never used this feature before and didn't know how effective it would be, so he decided to try it out tonight.

As Ash got closer and closer, Sanna unconsciously became flustered.

"What...what are you going to do!"

That day, fierce battle cries echoed through the base.

Under the influence of the level 8 gale, Sanna will henceforth be a kind woman who only thinks about doing good deeds.

The following night, Ash released Lian and repeated the process with Sanna.

As soon as Lian emerged from the sweet ball, she was utterly shocked.

"Sanna, what kind of shameless clothes are you wearing?!"

Although my sister has terrible taste and always sports that awful croissant hairstyle, this time it's just too much...

However, she quickly lost interest in such matters because the man beside her sister was about to make his move.

After the battle cry that night, Lian also developed a kind personality.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have achieved the achievement "Master of XX Domain!": You have successfully acquired three unapproachable characters exclusively for you! (Rika; Sanna; Lian)]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins +30000; Stamina +3; Attack +3; Free Attribute Points +3; "Enemy of Humanity" title effect enhanced]

[Enemy of Humanity: When worn, it reduces human affinity towards you by 10, but increases the success rate of using Sweet Balls on targets with evil attributes by 5 times, and doubles the efficiency of certain effects!]

————Dark Cyclone————

Everything in the Water City was in perfect order, and everyone was preparing for the festival as usual.

However, somewhere deep in the ocean near the Whirlpool Islands, Team Rocket's submarines discovered Lugia with a child.

"Reporting to Dr. Mambo, target spotted!"

"It's Dr. Nanbo!"

In front of the giant screen at Team Rocket's underwater headquarters, Dr. Nanbo roared and then laughed, finally finding it.

"Activate the weapons prepared for Lugia immediately. I want to capture it today!"

At his command, the shells from those specially designed unmanned submarines were immediately fired.
