Chapter 108: The smile does not disappear, it only transfers!

Must stop another Ash from speaking!

"Pika pika!"

Pikachu immediately wanted to jump over to stop mirror Ash from speaking,

But before mirror Ash could speak, mirror Serena and the others already started complaining on their own.

"For example, ambushing Pokemon sleeping by the roadside, shocking them while they're sound asleep until their scalps go numb!"

"Another example: sending weak Pokemon to the doorstep of their sleeping natural enemies, watching them want to flee but dare not make a move, terrified of waking the enemy who would swallow them whole in a pitiful sight."

"Besides that, forcibly kissing pretty female elves by the roadside!"

"Liking to act cute and rub against their chests in front of pretty older sisters!"

As one accusation after another was laid out before everyone,

Noticing the crowd,

Especially the strange looks and helpless smiles from Ash, Serena, and the Clemont siblings.

The obedient yellow electric mouse perched on Ash's shoulder shook its ears, lowered its head, and repeatedly tapped its two tiny paws together in front of its chest.

"Pika pi..."

The Pikachu in the mirror is really embarrassing!

Seeing someone join me in embarrassment, even more embarrassing,

At worst, my mirror self is just timid, but this Pikachu's conduct is depraved.

Ash's face instantly broke into a smile.

The smile doesn't disappear, it just shifts—Professor Damu never lies.

"Like that!"

Ash smiled and nodded knowingly, "Mewtwo, please look for it—its appearance should be exactly like my Pikachu, just with a nastier personality!"

"Sure!"

Even if Ash didn't say it, Mewtwo could figure that out.

As Mewtwo unleashed its psychic power, suddenly! Four figures appeared before everyone.

Three of them were old acquaintances of Ash and his friends,

The Team Rocket trio that had entered the mirror world first,

but they no longer had their former spirited appearance.

Their clothes were torn, they were covered in dirt and disheveled.

Fortunately, Musashi's clothes had no tears in key places, otherwise they'd surely attract the Harmony God Beast.

Suddenly coming from a rocky mountain path onto a plain, the trio froze.

"What's happening?"

Scanning the surroundings, they saw the Ash trio, who looked like clones, all freeze in unison.

When their gaze fell on Sakaki, especially seeing him standing beside the Kalos League Champion Kaluenai, they widened their eyes in shock.

"Sa-sa-sak... Sakaki Boss!"

"And still standing beside the Champion..."

"What on earth is going on, meow!"

The trio's complaints had just ended when a golden bolt of lightning suddenly rose and fell.

It shocked the trio until their whole bodies went numb.

"So numb!"

"Damn it! Pikachu's still chasing us!"

"Pikachu, did you take the wrong medicine today? You're acting worse than we are!"

In the blinding golden current,

With each complaint from the trio, the expression on the Pikachu on Ash's shoulder grew darker.

Now!

Pishen finally experienced Ash's social-death feeling.

"Pipi Pikachu!"

Furious, Pishen leapt from Ash's shoulder straight to the face of the evil-smirking Pikachu, flicking its silver‑tinged tail to fling it away.

Bang!

The evil Pikachu's body shot out like a cannonball, striking a distant boulder and shattering it into fragments.

"Pika pika!"

Rising from the wreckage, the evil Pikachu wore an angry expression.

Swift as electricity, it charged at Pikachu.

A flash of electricity!

A flash of electricity!

The same attack, but how could Champion‑peak Pikachu be a match for a Secondary‑God Pishen?

Its body was slammed away violently.

100,000 volts!

Unlike the evil Pikachu's golden‑yellow current,

a bluish‑green current surged from Pikachu, electrocuting the opponent into a twitching heap.

The evil Pikachu, which hasn't used its Ability Patch yet, still has the Static ability, so electric attacks remain effective.

Everyone watched as Pikachu soundly thrashed the evil Pikachu.

Until they beat the opponent into realizing they were cowardly,

Pikachu only then stopped, and gave them a scolding,

Being scolded by itself, the evil Pikachu also felt its face lose its shine, and could only lower its head and obediently listen,

During this time, the Rocket Team trio received Sakaki's sincere high praise!

"So there's you in another world too! Wu Zang! Meow Meow! Xiao Cilang! Well done! Truly my capable assistants, the Rocket Team's strongest three executives!"

"Boss Sakaki directly called our names!"

"And he said we are capable assistants?"

"Or the Rocket Team's strongest three executives, Meow!"

The trio's eyes lit up, extremely excited.

"But we in the other world aren't officials yet, Meow!"

Seeing the trio's dejection,

the gentle and sunny Mirror Sakaki immediately offered comfort, lightly patting Xiao Cilang's shoulder with his palm.

"What's that? Dr. Da Mu once said, gold will always shine! I believe with your talent, you'll soon be promoted to become my most capable assistants in the other world."

Boss Sakaki actually offered us comfort!?

Wuwuwu... really moved!

With tears welling, the trio exchanged a glance, their dejection instantly vanished, and they stood in uniform salute, saying,

"Yes!"

The sky grew late; the sun's last ray still lingered, but it could disappear at any moment.

Ash and his party made no delay.

Deep within the Mirror Cave, the passage linking the two worlds opened.

"Then, farewell until we meet again, everyone!"

While waving goodbye, Ash's party passed through the mirror tunnel, and just as Xiao Cilang, who was last, stepped out, everyone on both sides saw the passage collapse and close,

the trio, having narrowly escaped, plopped onto the ground,

"Phew—so lucky!"

"We almost never made it back."

"The air of our world is still more familiar, Meow!"

"PipiKachu!"

Pikachu showed a very fierce expression toward the trio,

thinking of some terrible possibility, the trio curled up into a ball.

"Y-you-you, little brat, you can't be mistaken, can you?"

Seeing the trio truly frightened, a dark‑faced Pikachu finally smiled. "Pika Pika~!"

"What, you say you're deliberately scaring the Meows!?"

"How terrible, Pikachu!"

"Exactly, how could you do this?!"

"Alright, alright, you being able to return is worth celebrating, stop arguing... let's have dinner together."

Ash stepped forward to smooth things over.

When everyone emerged from the cave, it was already night outside.

The group found a flat spot to set up camp and jointly prepared a lavish dinner.

During this time, Huo Jian Que watched Ash's fully evolved final‑stage partners and fell into melancholy.

Ash, seeing this, warmly patted Huo Jian Que's shoulder,

"Don't worry, your level is close to evolution; I believe you'll succeed."

"Rocket~"—hopefully.

After dinner,

Ash and the others lay on a blanket, gazing at the starry sky,

while Wu Zang and Xiao Cilang simply lay down on the grass.

"Come to think of it, if we can cause big trouble for the little brat official, his status and position will finally be solidified, right?"

"Indeed, that's so?"

"How about it?"

The trio exchanged a glance and silently approached Pikachu.

But how could all this be hidden from Ash, whose body possesses Waveguide Power, who silently toyed with the delicate beautiful leg extended beside him, Ash calmly gave the order.

"One Hundred Thousand Volts!"

Boom!

Accompanied by dazzling thunder lighting the night, the satiated, idle trio was once again launched into the sky.

"Got blasted again, but this time, it truly... feels wonderful!!!"

Watching the trio being blasted away,

Ash shook his head, truly, doing nothing keeps you alive.

…

Meanwhile,

about ten thousand meters ahead of Ash's party lay the Carlos Grand Canyon,

and under the night, a certain node here remained brightly lit.

A group of people wearing strange gliding suits flew in the air, relying on the strong wind blowing up from below the canyon.

"Everyone, let's fully enjoy the aerial battle."

"Flame Arrow Eagle, Charged Energy Flame Strike!"

Across from them was a pretty single-ponytail girl with a slender waist and long slender legs; although her movements were clumsy, her aura was formidable, "Fire Dragon, Spraying Flames Counterstrike!"
