Chapter 1282

~13 min read 2,420 words

Under Baimu's threat.

The otherworldly Rocket Team had no choice but to lay out their entire plan.

"Red chain?"

"So this is all because of Palkia and Dialga!"

"Damn Rocket Team! Don't you know it's because of you! My Porygon... Porygon..."

The otherworldly Satoshi's sobs drew comfort from two other girls.

Satoshi quickly said: "It's fine! Surely there's a way to solve this?"

"Right!"

"Boo boo boo!"

The real Satoshi and Porygon nodded repeatedly.

Both of them had seen the world, having personally experienced the battle between Palkia and Dialga years ago, and even stopped Arceus from destroying the world.

To them, mere spacetime distortion was absolutely nothing remarkable.

The otherworldly Musashi sneered: "Give it up, you're already struggling to survive. In a moment, not only will your Pokémon be—"

Smack!

The voice cut off abruptly.

Simply because the otherworldly Musashi's back of the head was struck hard by Baimu, causing him to enter a semi-conscious state on the spot.

"..."

The otherworldly Kojiro watched, trembling.

This was his first encounter with an opponent who relentlessly pursued and attacked trainers; compared to them, the Rocket Team seemed exceptionally kind.

After all, the Rocket Team only steals and snatches Pokémon, never threatening the personal safety of victims.

Also sharing this sentiment was Kasumi.

She had already recalled her Eevee into its Poké Ball, now hiding behind Satoshi, afraid to look toward Baimu's side.

Her cold expression combined with "ruthless" methods directly fulfilled the stereotype, fortunate that she still remembered Baimu was on their side, otherwise she might develop psychological trauma.

Why do Satoshi and Kasumi have no objections at all?

Kasumi looked at the two, noticing they were comforting the otherworldly Satoshi and trying to solve the problem, completely without leisure to attend to such trivial matters.

The sensitive adolescent girl then felt she might be overreacting.

After all, the Rocket Team were the culprits behind all this!

Seeing "Kasumi" crying, Kasumi instantly felt these two deserved their fate.

During her hesitation, Baimu said: "Never mind other things for now, go to the Rocket Team base and get an armored suit to protect everyone and the Pokémon's safety."

This idea gained unanimous agreement.

Especially for Pikachu, who resists Poké Balls, it had no intention of turning back into a Pokémon egg.

Otherworldly Kojiro: "..."

Why not ask for his opinion? Who agreed to this!?

"Lead the way, everyone cooperate, let's part on good terms." Baimu looked at him with a smiling, narrowed gaze.

Otherworldly Kojiro: "... Fine."

Circumstances are stronger than the person, endured!

He supported the unconscious otherworldly Musashi, leading several people to search for a truck parked nearby.

The battle between Dialga and Palkia appeared to have opened many spacetime rifts, but in reality only connected to one parallel world.

Besides the otherworldly Kasumi, the original plot participants also included the otherworldly Satoshi and otherworldly Kasumi, etc.

Among them, the otherworldly Satoshi had a weak personality, prone to crying at the slightest provocation; the otherworldly Kasumi was bold and careless, even daring to hack into the Rocket Team's system, copying armor capable of resisting temporal erosion.

The differences in personality among the parties were also something not to be overlooked.

Unfortunately, due to Baimu interfering in the plot, if not deliberately sought out, they would likely be hard to see.

During the search for the truck, the otherworldly Musashi gradually regained consciousness.

The two exchanged glances, discussing opportunities to break free from restraint, all of which Baimu naturally observed.

He chuckled, not being honest was just right; if the Rocket Team could be honest, there would be a problem!

Minutes later.

Everyone arrived at the Rocket Team's base truck parked outside the town.

This was prepared for the subsequent journey to Masara Town, to steal the Pokémon eggs stored at the Yamanashi Research Institute and Pokémon Center.

"I'll open the door—"

The otherworldly Kojiro eagerly ran over, but before he could get close, a strangely colored Gengar suddenly emerged in front of him.

"Ke he he he he~"

The gray fatty's eyes emitted pink-purple light, with ripples drilling into his eyes.

The otherworldly Musashi suddenly changed color, turned and tried to run.

But how could her reaction speed compare to Baimu's prepared defense?

Before she could run two meters, he grabbed her curved long hair, followed by the sound of Baimu's voice beside her ear.

"You're no longer needed, just be a good puppet."

In the next moment, purple light occupied the field of vision, and the otherworldly Musashi's consciousness again fell into chaos.

Unlike previous sleep-inducing effects, this hypnosis primarily caused control, making the two appear like walking corpses before Satoshi and others.

"Uh..."

Satoshi felt a bit of numbness on his scalp, "Baimu, will it be bad if Pokémon directly attack people?"

The righteous characters in the Pokémon series usually don't like using such tactics, except for this evil-path Champion.

Baimu countered, "What if Team Rocket has other people? They're just the Team Rocket you've seen the most, that doesn't mean Team Rocket only consists of them!"

Dawn was the first to be convinced, "Yeah. And the root cause of all the trouble is Team Rocket, they should be made to suffer a bit!"

"Right, right!"

The parallel world Dawn was more belligerent than the original, "It's all their fault!"

After all, in this parallel spacetime, she had won runner-up at the Lily of the Valley Conference, her performance surpassing Ash who only made the top four.

Chloe looked at the two girls in shock.

Ash said helplessly, "Fine~"

"Pika~"

Pikachu felt utterly guilty; it, which shocked others every three days, had no standing to speak.

Meanwhile.

The truck's rear cargo door opened.

Porygon2's voice came from inside, "The parallel world Team Rocket's firewall is absurdly weak, practically non-existent."

"After all, this world has no Porygon or Rotom resistance programs." Baimu entered first.

Sure enough, he saw two spare human-use armored suits and two Pokémon-use armored suits.

Ash was quite disappointed, "There are six of us!"

"Find other Team Rocket members, or just borrow from a Team Rocket base?"

Baimu was extremely calm, can a person really be killed by holding their pee?

In the end, he and Dawn put on the armored suits, because this thing even had separate male and female models.

The Pokémon ones could adjust their clasps for universal use; one was given to Pikachu, the other to Gengar.

The other Pokémon that could be stored were all returned to their Poké Balls.

"Get in! Let's go!"

Baimu unceremoniously took the driver's seat.

Actually, if the incident were simpler, Ash and the others' participation wouldn't be needed at all.

However, in the original plot, Team Rocket failed to properly control the Red Chain, causing Dialga to go completely berserk.

Not only did it destroy the armored suits Team Rocket made, it even caused all Pokémon to revert to Pokémon Egg states, and humans became younger too.

In the end, they could only work together to call upon Arceus, begging this great god for help.

They succeeded, but it inexplicably gave the feeling of gathering the world's power to form a Spirit Bomb to defeat the enemy.

—Very fitting for its child-oriented audience.

Baimu didn't know if he could awaken it alone, so he had to bring Ash and the whole group along.

They're the protagonist team, after all!

Porygon2 frantically copied the parallel world Team Rocket's database data and self-encoded it, temporarily producing a program that could prevent time reversal for a short time without armored suits.

Come to think of it, it's only been an hour since arriving in this world, and several moves in its own database have already been deleted, only the instant memory module still remembers them.

The power of time reversal is simply bizarre!

Can ordinary Pokémon really defeat these so-called "gods"?

Porygon2 couldn't help looking at Baimu driving intently; it wasn't an idiot, it naturally knew the power the Trainer wielded was fundamentally not something humans could grasp.

Could it be that Trainers are also among the "gods"?

After all, his resurrection is inextricably linked to the "Creator God" and Ho-Oh.

Porygon2's mood was extremely complex at this moment, rather like — suddenly discovering the dad who cooks for you at home every day is actually a prince of some country.

"What's wrong?"

Baimu could feel Porygon2's gaze.

Porygon2: "Baimu, will everyone stay together forever?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? None of us are going anywhere, we'll be together forever."

He replied with a smile.

Porygon2's question was a bit baffling, did it see something in the Team Rocket database?

I'll ask when I get a chance.

Baimu floored the gas pedal, the truck sped all the way to the foot of Mt. Coronet.

Turns out Team Rocket had set up a temporary base here, to use the frequent spacetime rifts appearing at Spear Pillar to travel to other spacetimes.

That place is the main battlefield where Dialga and Palkia clash.

Meowth and Torkoal were both controlled by Gengar; Baimu handed the driver's seat to Meowth, while he and the others hid in the rear cargo hold.

Gengar manipulated Jessie, James, and Torkoal to get out first and guide the base to open its doors.

Unlike the main world Team Rocket trio who sit on the cold bench, in the parallel world they are all executive-level existences; even Meowth is respectfully called "Captain Meowth" by other Team Rocket grunts.

Ash peered out the window, realizing belatedly, "They don't seem to be the same people as the Team Rocket we know."

"Pika?"

Pikachu sweated.

Most of the time its partner is quite smart, but occasionally...

"Eh? Seems like it really is!"

"Bop~"

Dawn and Piplup's agreement made Pikachu faint completely.

The number of times they've been entangled by Team Rocket, if not over a thousand, is probably several hundred; they couldn't even tell this.

Baimu laughed heartily, "Our world's Team Rocket doesn't have that kind of ability!"

They might have originally, but after Queen Leiguanwang stabbed them a few times with her spear, even if they had it, it became nothing.

The truck smoothly drove into the base.

Baimu released the powerful, age-unknown Duraludon, "It's up to you guys, take down all the active people and Pokemon."

"Rutor!"

Duraludon nodded.

Its ability is best suited to pair with Porygon2, one invades the base's computer program, the other plays dirty tricks from behind.

Moreover, it's old, not afraid of short-term time reversal.

Ash and the others wanted to get off, but were stopped by Baimu, "Don't rush, leave it to my Pokemon."

The few of them looked at each other in dismay, "Is this okay?"

"Better than us causing trouble in the past."

One sentence from Baimu choked them into silence.

But everyone had long known Baimu's swift and decisive work style, especially Ash and Pikachu recalling the Team Flare destruction incident.

Never imagined such a large organization could be successfully dismantled in just a few hours, so smoothly that he, accustomed to stepping in at the last moment to turn the tide, became the one standing on the side watching.

"Baimu... are you an International Police officer now?"

Ash couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, Dawn and the others all looked at him in surprise.

Baimu smiled, "Of course not, why would you think that?"

"Ahaha, subconscious, just feel like you're especially skilled at dealing with organizations like Team Rocket."

Ash laughed foolishly and scratched his head.

About ten minutes passed, Duraludon and Porygon2 returned.

"Done."

"Rutor~"

Team Rocket's armored suits aren't omnipotent; although they have the ability to boost Pokemon attack and defense, as long as you find the weak point you can easily destroy them.

With Porygon2's guidance, the lightning-fast Duraludon effortlessly took down the dozen or so Team Rocket grunts inside the base.

"So few people?"

Baimu was quite surprised.

You have to know their target this time was Dialga and Palkia.

Porygon2 explained, "Personnel were allocated all over the world to steal and snatch Pokemon, the plan was to wait until the snatching was almost done then come back to capture Dialga and Palkia."

"Where did they get the courage..."

Baimu shook his head.

Even if these two dragons were controlled by the Red Chain, they aren't something ordinary people can handle.

What's more, a Giratina is lurking in the shadows.

Dialga and Palkia fighting, in this guy's world there must be a lot more distorted spacetime black mist, if not resolved for too long it will inevitably go berserk.

"Go to the equipment room to gear up, then set out to put a perfect period on all this!"

"Oh!!"

Everyone responded in unison.

——

The intersection of time and space.

Red Chains encircled Dialga and Palkia, simultaneously golden halos embedded in their abdomens, restricting their movements.

"Mmm——!!"

"Oh——!!"

The Dragon of Time and the Dragon of Space continued roaring, their eyes full of chaos and mania.

The power of the Creator God Arceus tightly locked them, the punishment from their "Father" made the two restless.

More critically, they fundamentally didn't know what they did wrong.

Sizzle!

Pink radiance pierced space, creating spacetime holes; blue lightning passed through the spacetime holes, bringing spacetime chaos to various parallel worlds.

The Team Rocket grunts left behind watched this scene, their faces showing not a trace of fear, only smug laughter at their scheme succeeding.

"Now our Team Rocket can dominate the whole world!"

Time reverses across the whole world, only Team Rocket doesn't change!

Who can still stop Boss Giovanni's ambition?

They laughed wildly and arrogantly, but suddenly felt a heat wave on their backs.

Subconsciously lowering their heads, they suddenly faced splashing firelight.

"Ah! How could this——"

Bang bang!

Armored suits exploded, the Team Rocket grunts left behind lost consciousness on the spot.

Duraludon quietly appeared, looked up at the roaring Dialga and Palkia, couldn't help but shrink its neck.

It didn't even dare approach these two existences, how would the Trainer handle them?

"How should we rescue them? Would destroying that chain work?"

The same question was raised by Ash, "Pikachu! Thunderbolt——"

"Skin—"

"You guys settle down for me."

Baimu grabbed the leaping armored Pikachu with one hand, the surging current striking his body, feeling no pain at all.

He said to the several people: "After all, the red chains symbolize the power of Arceus; we might as well turn to Arceus..."

The words had not yet faded.

The Thousand Universe Wrist in his arms blazed with light!

The slumbering Taile Bagoos was awakening!
