Chapter 134

Sure enough, not long after, Entei turned into a fire whirlwind, first knocking away Jolteon, then hitting through Rock Tomb to knock away Nidoqueen, and finally dodging Pikachu's Iron Tail, slapping it away with one claw.

Subsequently, it jumped back onto the giant rock, panting slightly—clearly, it had also consumed a lot of stamina.

"Lost." Huo La recalled Nidoqueen and sighed helplessly.

"As expected of a legendary Pokémon, too strong." Red also recalled Jolteon, his tone full of excitement.

Ash scratched his head and said with a smile: "Although we lost, it was such a fun battle!"

The three looked at each other, their eyes full of excitement—being able to battle Entei was a rare experience in itself.

But Huo La felt a bit puzzled: they had clearly lost, but the task didn't show as completed. His gaze couldn't help but fall on the 7-day task duration.

Just at this moment, a stream of light suddenly shot out from behind the tree, accurately piercing the softest part of Entei's abdomen! Entei felt the pain, let out a shrill roar, turned its head sharply to look in the direction of the sneak attack, and a scorching Flamethrower sprayed over immediately!

"Who is it!" Ash shouted angrily.

"Who is it? Hehe!" Two voices sounded, and then two figures walked out from behind the tree.

"Since you've asked so sincerely,

We won't answer with common sense!

So we'll answer you with great kindness!

To prevent the world from being destroyed,

To protect the peace of the world,

To carry out evil with love and honesty,

Cute and funny villains!

Yamato!

Kosaburo!

We are Team Rocket, traveling through the universe!

A pink, peach-colored tomorrow awaits us!"

As the two finished their lines, Jessie and James on the big tree in the distance were instantly furious.

"How could those two be here!!!" Jessie stomped on the branch and shouted.

"Jessie, take it easy! This branch can't hold!" James hurriedly pulled her.

"Shut up! I'm super angry right now—" Before Jessie could finish, with a "crack," the branch suddenly broke, and the two and the Meowth fell down directly.

Huo La looked at the suddenly appearing Yamato and Kosaburo, his heart also full of surprise. How could these two suddenly appear here?

Similar to Jessie, James, and Meowth, these three were rare "freelancers" in Team Rocket, or rather, people who were their own masters besides the Captains.

Not only did they cause trouble many times, but they could also safely leave Team Rocket in the end; there was definitely something behind them.

"Team Rocket again!" Ash clenched his fists, his tone full of anger. "Was the explosion at the Rainbow Gym in Yuhong City your doing? And now you dare to sneak attack Entei!"

"Hey hey, don't frame us!" Yamato immediately waved her hand, her tone carrying a hint of impatience. "That mess at the Rainbow Gym has nothing to do with us; we don't have the leisure to blow up a Gym."

Kosaburo also added: "Not only does it have nothing to do with us, but it also has nothing to do with Team Rocket Headquarters—do you think the Boss would really do such a losing business of 'only demolition, no looting'?"

"If it's not you, then who else!" Misty pointed at them. "You just attacked Entei, and you still want to quibble!"

"Attacking Entei, that's because—" Kosaburo just wanted to continue, but was glared at fiercely by Yamato, and his words were immediately interrupted.

"Why waste words with them! Block them first!" Yamato took out a Poké Ball. "Go, Raticate! Use Headbutt!"

"And my Meowth! Fury Swipes!" Kosaburo also threw out a Poké Ball.

Raticate rushed toward Ash with sharp momentum, while Meowth pounced on Red. The two set up an aggressive stance as soon as they came up, clearly wanting to entangle Huo La and the others to leave time for the others.

"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!" Ash ordered immediately, and golden current surged out instantly, forcing Raticate to brake and retreat in a hurry.

"Jolteon, Quick Attack to dodge, use Discharge!" Red also reacted quickly. Jolteon flexibly avoided Meowth's claws, and current surged around its body to counterattack.

Huo La didn't rush to act, his gaze sweeping over the backs of Yamato and Kosaburo—he always felt something was wrong. These two people's strength couldn't stop them at all; there must be a backup plan.

Sure enough, just as Raticate and Meowth entangled Pikachu and Jolteon, Yamato quietly took out a remote control, her fingers pressing quickly on it.

"Careful!" Huo La shouted suddenly. As soon as the words fell, an alloy trap net with cold-glinting barbs slammed down from above Entei's head, instantly entangling its limbs and body like an iron cage, even the elegant white smoke behind it was tightly stuck by the mesh.

"Roar—!" Entei roared angrily, its orange-red fur erupting with scorching flames, trying to burn the trap net with high temperature.

But this net was clearly specially modified. The flames licked the surface of the net, leaving only a few wisps of scorch marks, not even burning out a single gap.

"Hahaha, succeeded!" Yamato put away the remote control in her hand triumphantly, shaking her wrist. "This is the 'Beast-Locking Net' we specially built for Entei. It's fireproof, insulated, and suppresses current. Even a Divine Beast shouldn't think about breaking free!"

Kosaburo also leaned over, a calculating smile curling the corners of his mouth: "Since we knew Entei was here, how could we not make preparations in advance? You spent your energy battling Entei to consume its stamina,"

Jessie and the others hiding in the grass not far away were stunned. James pushed his glasses and muttered: "When did the organization have a plan to capture Entei? Why didn't we get any news at all?"

"Shut up! It must be Dr. Jinbo's private arrangement!" Jessie stomped her feet in anger, her nails almost embedding into her palms. "That's the Entei we spotted first! Why should we let them take the credit!"

"But Jessie, Team Rocket strictly forbids infighting. If it's discovered..." James still wanted to persuade, but was glared back fiercely by Jessie.

"Meowth! Get ready to act!" Jessie whispered, but didn't get a response.

She turned her head and saw Meowth staring at Kosaburo's Meowth on the battlefield with starry eyes, its tail almost wagging into a propeller: "Meow~ She looks so much like my Madanana! Her fur is shiny, and her claws are so sharp..."

"What time is it, and you're still thinking about this!" Jessie punched Meowth on the head in anger, making it jump up with a "Meow-woo" in pain. "Take out the anesthetic needle you hid! Give Yamato and Kosaburo a shot!"

"Meow? Are you sure, Jessie? That's a potent anesthetic that can knock down a Snorlax. If it hits a person, they'll sleep for a whole day!" Meowth rubbed its head and took out a syringe filled with purple liquid from its pocket.

"Sure! If we don't let them fall, how can we snatch Entei!" Jessie stared at Yamato's face in anger, clenching her fists.

Her grudge with Yamato had been formed since the Team Rocket training school; she absolutely couldn't watch Yamato and the others capture Entei!
