He wouldn't waste brain cells on things he couldn't understand; his task was to catch the three of them and send them to the boss.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"You'll find out soon enough.\" The mere title of a high-ranking Team Rocket officer couldn't scare Ash; since he dared to come to New Island, he was already prepared.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"I'll leave it to you, Lucario, Charizard.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Cassidy licked his dry lips with his tongue and said coldly: \"Aren't you letting that Pikachu out?

On the other side of the battle, Sneasel was fighting quite well; it started with a Dark-type skill barrage, and its sharp claws left multiple wounds on Lucario's body, seemingly taking the initiative in the battle.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Korrina: \"Why isn't Ash's Lucario fighting back?\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Korrina didn't understand.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't that Cassidy's Sneasel had no flaws; she had discovered several herself. There was no reason Black Ash couldn't see flaws that even she could find.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why just take a beating without fighting back? It was truly puzzling.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"That's enough, time to fight back. Lucario, Aura Sphere.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Hearing Ash's command, Lucario quickly opened up distance from Sneasel, took a deep breath, and began to absorb the Dark-type energy remaining in its wounds.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The dark energy brought Lucario not only pain but also power. Under the blessing of the Justified ability, all darkness would be transformed into Lucario's energy.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Under the opponent's gaze, Lucario's momentum began to rise steadily.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Not good, Sneasel, hurry and stop it.\" Cassidy said in a panic.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Sneasel rushed toward Lucario at its fastest speed, but Lucario's reaction exceeded its expectations.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Standing in place, without dodging or avoiding, Lucario seemed to know which side Sneasel would attack from. As soon as Sneasel made a move, Lucario easily blocked it with its forearm. Then, it used its other hand to press against Sneasel's neck, pinning it firmly to the ground.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Sneasel struggled continuously on the ground, but it was of no use. Under the blessing of the Justified ability, Lucario's power had reached a new height, not something it could contend with now.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[With its left hand firmly pinning Sneasel to the ground, its right hand condensed an Aura Sphere. Just like that, in despair, Sneasel welcomed Lucario's Aura Sphere.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Boom!\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[With an explosion, the world became quiet.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[On the other side, the winner had also been decided on Charizard's side.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Three minutes later, Cassidy was tied to a reef by Ash, and as for Sneasel and Scizor, they were recalled into their Poké Balls by him. After leaving New Island, they would undergo rehabilitation by Officer Jenny.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Being criminals, the reason for treating them differently was also very simple. There are very few naturally evil Pokémon; they just follow their Trainer's orders. With proper education, they can start over.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Hey, let me go quickly. This is the coast; the tide will come and swallow this place.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Mm, I know.\" Ash nodded, \"So you're on your own.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[He was a \"soft-hearted\" person who couldn't bear to see people die, so he wouldn't do it himself.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Actually, Cassidy didn't need to be so desperate; there were still several hours until high tide, so he still had time to save himself. If he was lucky, he wouldn't necessarily die.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Piers: \"Is this the strength of a high-ranking Team Rocket officer? It's too disappointing.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had originally thought there would be a wonderful duel, but it turned out to be a one-sided battle.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at it this way, Team Rocket really might not be as good as Team Yell.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sigh, sure enough, only children think about ruling the world every day.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lance: \"Cassidy is not a combat officer of Team Rocket.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disdaining Team Rocket's character is one thing, but their strength is still worth respecting. If all of Team Rocket's combat officers were really of Cassidy's caliber, then the Kanto League would have wiped out Team Rocket long ago and wouldn't have dragged it out until now.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lorelei: \"Apollo, Athena, Lance, and Lambda—these four guys are the most troublesome.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[After defeating Cassidy, no one came to block Ash and the others' progress anymore. The road was smooth, and the three of them arrived at the castle's banquet hall.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"You've finally arrived, Ash of Pallet Town.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[The mastermind behind the scenes, Giovanni, appeared.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Glancing at Giovanni, Ash couldn't help but complain in his heart.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[This guy, he really doesn't forget to bring his boss chair wherever he goes.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Just like the first time they met, Giovanni sat on his boss chair, stroking his cat.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Gym Leader Giovanni, you went to such great lengths to invite me to New Island; what exactly is the matter?\" Ash paused suddenly, \"Oh, I forgot, you are no longer the Gym Leader of Viridian Gym; you are the mastermind behind Team Rocket.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"...Whether it's the Gym Leader of Viridian Gym or the mastermind behind Team Rocket, they are just identities. I have always been me, Giovanni.\" Giovanni pretended not to understand the sarcasm in Ash's words.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Alright, stop talking in riddles; let's get straight to the point. What kind of conspiracy do you have for letting me come to New Island?\" Ash said coldly.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Conspiracy?\" Giovanni laughed, \"I didn't hold a gun to your head to make you come to New Island. You came voluntarily, didn't you?\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"And, what you want to know more shouldn't be what conspiracy I have, right? It should be why Mew had to come to New Island, right?\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Hearing Mew, Ash's face turned cold instantly.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Giovanni was truly omnipotent; he actually knew that Mew was by his side.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Giovanni seemed not to see the change in Ash's expression and continued: \"Actually, at first, I didn't know your Ralts was Mew in disguise. It wasn't until one time when a Team Rocket member saw you following a little pink cat.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"You sent people to follow me?\" Ash's face became uglier and uglier.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"No, no, no, no, no.\" Giovanni shook his head, \"Following people is too easy to be discovered. It was just a coincidence. I sent your portrait to Team Rocket members in every city, asking them to pay special attention to you. You know, for an outstanding young man like you, I can't help but pay attention.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Then you Team Rocket guys are really omnipotent.\" Ash said sarcastically.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"So, are you interested in joining our Team Rocket? As long as you are willing, the position of Team Rocket high-ranking officer leader is yours. Even, in ten or twenty years, when I am old, I can even give you the position of Team Rocket boss.\" Giovanni said sincerely.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Team Rocket high-ranking officer leader?\" Misty and Brock were also shocked by Giovanni's grand gesture.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[They weren't people without experience; this position was second only to Giovanni within Team Rocket, truly one person above ten thousand. To recruit Ash, Giovanni was truly willing to pay the price.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lance: \"To attract outstanding talent to join Team Rocket, Giovanni, you are really willing. Aren't you afraid that other Team Rocket members will have opinions?\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Giovanni: \"Our Team Rocket is different from the bureaucracy-ridden League. Positions within Team Rocket have always been held by those with virtue; if you have the ability, your position will be high. Since Black Ash has this ability, what's wrong with him sitting in a higher position?\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jessie, James, Meowth: \"Boss is wise.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lorelei: \"Tch, this is the first time I've heard someone describe a dictatorship so refreshingly and refinedly. And 'held by those with virtue'—isn't who sits in what position just a matter of your word, Giovanni? Don't gild your own face.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grimsley: \"Do you think Black Ash will agree to Giovanni's conditions?\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wallace: \"Then I'll ask you, would you give up your position as an Elite Four member to join Team Magma or Team Aqua?\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grimsley: \"I'm not stupid, how could I do that!\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wallace: \"Heh, even you wouldn't do such a stupid thing; do you think Black Ash would?!\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"This joke of yours is not funny at all.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[He is a dignified direct descendant of the League; if he develops normally, not to mention Champion, he could easily become an Elite Four member. Why would he have nothing better to do than follow Team Rocket?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Are you kidding?!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"What a pity; in that case, we can only meet on the battlefield.\" Giovanni wasn't too surprised. If Ash had really agreed to work with him, he would have found it strange.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Giovanni snapped his fingers hard, and the castle began to shake. Before long, a humanoid Pokémon wearing silver armor appeared behind him.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Let me introduce you to Team Rocket's most perfect masterpiece. Its name is Mewtwo.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Mewtwo? What does it have to do with Mew?\" Misty asked quickly.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Miss, interrupting someone else's introduction is very impolite behavior.\" Giovanni glanced at Misty coldly, then continued to introduce, \"It is an artificial Pokémon cloned from Mew's genes.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"Actually, as early as ten or twenty years ago, when my mother was still the boss of Team Rocket, Team Rocket had already started pursuing Mew.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"At that time, Team Rocket high-ranking officer Miyamoto, in order to find and catch Mew, stayed in the distant South American jungle for several months, and finally disappeared in that jungle forever.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"However, Miyamoto's sacrifice was not meaningless.

Giovanni is stunned!]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[\"In the temple dedicated to Mew, they also found Mew's eyelash fossil.\"]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lance: \"So that's to say, as early as twenty years ago, Team Rocket had already set their sights on Mew?\"]\u003C\u002Fp>",1865,"2026-06-16T23:48:07.192Z","2026-06-17T00:04:53.823Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","59b1c38faafee43b8a27915daeed7c2f484a04b1b3c3d06761ab0eaad58dfdb8","dual-ash-comparison-serena-is-too-blessed-chapter-69","dual-ash-comparison-serena-is-too-blessed-chapter-67",367,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdual-ash-comparison-serena-is-too-blessed-cover.jpg"]
