Pokémon, but cultural invasion.

"Sata!"

Saltstone's orange eyes darted around, and the yellowish-brown halo around its body indicated that it had entered battle mode, as if it were on guard against something.

"Lo-to-"

The sound from the Rotom phone, which was floating beside my shoulder, became choppy and distorted.

Looking around, Quanshu realized this was a central park, a great place for a stroll and a rest after dinner.

Whether it was good luck or bad luck, there happened to be no one within dozens of meters around.

"Are they here for me?"

The Pokémon's reaction convinced him that something was watching him.

Quanshu watched his surroundings warily, ready to log off immediately if any danger arose.

He couldn't recall offending anyone in the Pokémon world. Could it be some kind of brutal business competition?

The next second, a figure wearing a cloak appeared in Izumi's field of vision.

A thick, long tail could not be completely concealed by the cloak, revealing its deep purple, oval tip.

As the cloaks turned, their eyes met.

His ashen face was framed by a pair of fierce, purplish-black pupils.

"Sata!"

Sensing danger, Yan Shibao stepped forward and stood in front of him.

Spring Tree gently patted it, signaling Salt Stone Treasure to come back: "Don't fight, come behind me."

His gaze never left the other person.

Those eyes... without a doubt, the strongest, the teardrop of an era, as officially proclaimed—Mewtwo.

With its powerful ability to provide an entry warning, a Special Attack stat 4 points higher than Kyogre, and a signature move with a power of 100, it's truly a force to be reckoned with.

Of course, it's fine to just make fun of it in the game.

If I were to actually meet Izumi in real life, I have no doubt that the other person could easily crush me.

And now... he really wants to know why Mewtwo didn't honestly try to make a comeback, but instead came to him first?

"where is it?"

"what?"

The sound seemed not to come from the other person's mouth, but was transmitted directly into Izumi's mind.

This time he heard it clearly—

Where is that museum?

“I searched every museum in Jade Rainbow City, but there was no Temple of Xernias, nor the Flower of Eternity.”

In the short time it took Mewtwo to say just two sentences, the balance in Izumi's bank account was decreasing at an alarming rate.

[Legendary Investigator LV4→LV5]

He kept receiving upgrade messages until he reached LV9 before he stopped.

Fortunately, "Night at the Museum" was released all over the world, which reduced the price of the broadcasting rights, and the bulk of the box office revenue went to Izumi.

Otherwise, he would have gone bankrupt after this crazy escalation of the meal.

Searching for the Temple of Xerneas and the Flower of Eternity in the museum?

Quanshu couldn't help but wonder if he had heard clearly or not. He suspected that Mewtwo had damaged its brain in the process of fighting back.

She actually asked him about props from the movie.

and many more...

Suddenly, as if lightning had flashed across the sky, the scattered pieces of information came together, and a flash of inspiration appeared in the spring tree.

The wildfire in Cinnabar Town, combined with the information Misty provided... Could Mewtwo have just escaped from Team Rocket's lab?

Seeing that He was wearing a cloak, Izumi felt that he must have guessed correctly.

After going berserk at the beginning of the month, destroying the research institute and causing a wildfire, its whereabouts are unknown.

He knew that Mewtwo in the game would eventually settle in Cerulean Cave, but what happened in between remained a mystery.

No matter where it goes, Mewtwo will inevitably come into contact with human cities.

The movie poster for "Night at the Museum," which is currently showing in theaters, is plastered all over the streets of Kanto City.

Mewtwo likely came into contact with the movie because of this, which is why he came to find him.

Izumi felt he had pieced together the truth of the matter, otherwise he couldn't have imagined why Mewtwo had come looking for him.

And the "eternal flower" that the other party mentioned.

He wouldn't take the events in the movie as real, would he?

Chapter 86 If his fate is unknown, then he is dead.

Quanshu did not answer His question immediately, but cautiously asked:

Why are you looking for the Flower of Eternity?

If his guess is correct, Mewtwo may be making its first contact with the human world.

Like a newborn child who has just arrived in this world, their understanding of the world is not yet complete.

The difference lies in Mewtwo's powerful strength and unique way of thinking.

He may have seen people making video calls and filming street scenes, and thus mistakenly believed that the images on the big screen were real.

Given the niche nature of the film industry, it's not surprising that ridiculous misunderstandings arise.

Mewtwo flicked its tail impatiently.

He did not intend to answer the question posed by this human.

But for some reason, in just a few seconds after speaking, this human suddenly became handsome and exuded a gentle aura.

"For greater power."

The ultimate weapon that grants and takes life, Mewtwo is certain that the Eternal Flower can make him stronger.

Mewtwo's answer confirmed to Izumi that He had indeed confused the movie with reality.

And most of them have only recently left the laboratory and have not yet established their own understanding.

Quanshu's eyes flickered, keenly realizing that this seemed to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Giovanni took advantage of the cognitive gap that Mewtwo had just experienced upon arriving in the world, tricking it into doing free work for Team Rocket for a long time.

Mewtwo realized he had been tricked and attacked Team Rocket's base, going berserk and destroying human cities, causing immense damage.

So he continued, "And then what if you have even greater power?"

"Then?"

Mewtwo lowered its cloak, its face showing deep thought.

After a long while, His voice rang out again: "First destroy the humans who created me, then destroy my true form."

His words were filled with tyranny and hatred.

Quanshu swallowed back all the inspirational words that were about to be spoken.

That's not how the process works.

Mewtwo should have doubts about what to do after gaining power, and then he should use all sorts of inspirational quotes to make Mewtwo think about what the meaning of its existence really is.

Then, going along with the flow, he told Mewtwo, "I'll help you control your power and find meaning."

Finally, he acquires a super fighter and challenges various champions to reach the pinnacle of his life.

It seems being the boss of Sakaki isn't so easy after all.

With a quick thought, Izumi immediately abandoned the idea of ​​fooling Mewtwo.

With the [Legendary Investigator] effect active, his honesty poses no danger.

If you try to be clever and get caught, then things could get complicated.

Moreover, Mewtwo has telepathic abilities, so the probability of it being detected is almost 100%.

"The temple and the eternal flower you're looking for are props in my movie; they're fictional and don't exist in this world."

Quanshu spread his hands: "Perhaps you can find the prototype of the Eternal Flower, but the real effect will be completely different from what is shown in the movie."

"Fictional?"

Mewtwo's pupils shrank.

The footage appeared so real to Him, and the reactions of those around Him were impeccable.

He could sense the emotions of the creatures around him; that day, the people in the movie theater cheered and jumped for joy along with the protagonist on the screen, and were heartbroken and worried about what had happened to him...

So you tell Him it's all fake, fabricated?

How could humans sympathize with a fictional character and empathize with his or her plight?

Mewtwo couldn't understand it at all.

What you see on the screen is not necessarily real.

Quanshu explained sincerely, "Performing exciting virtual stories for our fellow human beings to watch is one of our forms of entertainment."

"So if you're hoping to find something that doesn't exist through me, you're destined to be disappointed."

Although He was reluctant to believe it, His telepathy told Him that what the person in front of Him was saying was true.

This human is different from other humans; at least he is sincere.

The inexplicable thought was suppressed by Mewtwo.

"I see."

He shook his head in frustration. Since he couldn't get the answer he wanted, there was no point in continuing to talk to this human.

Moreover, if the conversation continues, more and more inexplicable thoughts will arise.

Mewtwo turned around, ready to leave.

Was the movie good?

The human voice sounded again from behind, and He stopped.

Although Chao Meng couldn't understand much of the film, he did experience a short but enjoyable time following the music, which was sometimes exciting and sometimes soothing.

However, Mewtwo did not answer, but disappeared without looking back.

He had hated every human being he had ever encountered before, so perhaps the person who could create this film was truly different.

Damn!

Mewtwo covered its head, and strange thoughts kept popping up uncontrollably again.

...

They just left without saying a word?

Quanshu looked at the brand-new LV9 [Legendary Investigator] on the panel with suspicion.

Are you really putting in the effort, bro?

His racing heartbeat only gradually calmed down long after Mewtwo had disappeared from the spot.

Unlike most friendly legendary Pokémon in the Pokémon world, Mewtwo is one of the most ferocious.

Only Giratina could rival Him.

So when Mewtwo suddenly appeared, Izumi's attention was completely focused on the "exit" button.

Fortunately, I managed to trigger the [Legendary Investigator] effect; otherwise, Izumi would have run away the moment she saw him.

But then I thought, if it weren't for "Night at the Museum," Mewtwo wouldn't have approached him.

With a complicated expression, Quanshu glanced again at the gleaming LV9 on the panel.
