Chapter 188: The Dragon God from the Legends of the Unova Myth!
Team Rocket, an evil organization originating from the Kanto region.
Alder certainly knew this, but he knew even more that Team Rocket frequently invades other regions now.
For instance, the Hoenn region some time ago was turned upside down by Team Rocket!
The Devon Corporation headquarters was invaded by Team Rocket, the president was even kidnapped, and a great battle ensued with the Hoenn League inside the city of Rustboro.
Afterwards, it was said that the heavy rain shrouding most of Hoenn, causing Hoenn to nearly fall into a flood, was also Team Rocket's masterpiece.
That terrifying heavy rain caused no small impact on the entire Hoenn region; if it hadn't suddenly stopped later, who knows what Hoenn would have become?
Even so, this was the result after Champions from other regions supported the Hoenn region.
For Alder, he absolutely did not want Team Rocket to appear in the Unova region; otherwise, the Unova League would probably not be able to hold out...
And now, has Team Rocket come to Unova after all?
Alder's expression was Solemn as he looked toward that smiling black-haired youth.
Alder's heart sank; the Pokémon League was ultimately of one mind, so he had also heard the main reason why Team Rocket was so active now.
It was because a top executive advocating expansion had appeared within Team Rocket, Mamon!
"You are Team Rocket's executive Mamon?" Alder's tone was very solemn.
"I did not expect the respected Champion Alder to recognize me; it truly makes me feel greatly honored."
Mamon spoke to Alder with refined courtesy, then looked toward N.
"Sage my lord is also interesting; you, a member of a dark organization, actually seek aid from a League Champion? That is somewhat laughable."
Mamon mocked.
"Hmph! Brat, I am indeed not your match, but Alder is our Unova Champion; taking down a small kid like you is a piece of cake!"
N said coldly; this attitude of such absolute trust made Alder listen in utter astonishment.
Not my friend, you trust me so much; should I not express my gratitude to you?
"Oh?" Mamon glanced at Alder with a half-smile.
"Although our Team Plasma was indeed misunderstood by the League and labeled a dark organization, even so, as long as it is against you evil Team Rocket, Team Plasma is also willing to set aside past grievances and stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Unova League!"
N spoke with righteous indignation; this speech actually made Alder look at him with some new respect.
Hmm, although Alder also knew that N simply wanted to obtain the League's help at this moment to avoid falling into Mamon's hands.
"You speak very beautifully, Sage N, but I wonder if you have heard a saying."
Mamon could not help but applaud N, his corner of the mouth slowly rising.
"Cooperation among ants can never shake an elephant, no matter what."
Upon hearing these words, the expressions of Alder and the others all changed slightly.
What does this mean? Comparing us to ants?!
N's face was as dark as water; even facing the Unova League, this brat was still so arrogant!!
"Evil Team Rocket! Truly arrogant!"
Even Officer Jenny could not help but feel anger rise in her heart at this moment.
"Do not rush; today was merely to say hello to you; next, we have plenty of time to play slowly."
Mamon waved his hand toward both N and Alder, his figure slowly retreating.
He had originally just come to indicate Team Rocket's arrival to N; the purpose has now been achieved, no rush.
He did not intend to kill N right now; otherwise, there would be less fun in the future.
"Wait! I did not say I would let you leave!" Alder's tone was heavy.
Saying this, Alder opened a Poké Ball, and a mighty Volcarona appeared before him.
Although he was very wary of Mamon's strength, at this moment it was impossible to just watch an evil organization's executive swagger away right before his eyes, right?
Otherwise, that would be too ridiculous.
"Melo~"
A light chirp carrying a tone of mockery sounded, and a slender, long black figure landed behind Mamon; it was the Shiny Celebi.
The Shiny Celebi's right foot glowed with ice-blue light; as it raised its right leg, it swung it down heavily.
An Ice-type Blizzard erupted continuously, and the howling blizzard instantly filled the vision of Alder and the others.
An Ice-type Blizzard!
"Overheat!" Alder immediately ordered Volcarona to resist.
Volcarona spat out an incredibly scorching 'Great' character-shaped flame; however, within a short while of the Overheat and the Blizzard colliding head-on, the Blizzard began to slowly swallow the Overheat.
Alder's pupils were somewhat vacant.
But fortunately, with Officer Jenny and other officers helping to stop it, under the resistance of numerous moves, this Blizzard was finally blocked.
However, after the Blizzard ended, the front where the snow and ice were drifting was completely devoid of the Shiny Celebi and Mamon's figures.
"Champion Alder, the opponent has already fled; should we send people to pursue?"
"Not for now."
Alder rubbed his temples with a headache, his gaze falling upon N, who was dressed in magnificent robes nearby.
Catching Mamon? It was simply too dangerous.
Judging from the final Blizzard just now, this Mamon's strength was absolutely as powerful as the rumors claimed.
At this moment, N's expression was also not very good; he cursed Team Rocket inwardly, did they actually run away themselves?
According to logic, shouldn't they have fought Alder?
Then N could quietly retreat while they were fighting, letting them fight each other.
But N did not expect that Mamon would slip away so quickly! Aren't you very arrogant? Go fight Alder, you jerk!
"N, you will come with us."
Quiche's face was utterly foul; Mamon had fled, so naturally, Adick's target had shifted to him.
What made Quiche lose his composure most was that he truly had no way out, for he was no match for Adick.
Indeed, the great Sage Quiche successfully acquired a pair of silver handcuffs.
Under normal circumstances, if Adick caught this cult leader Quiche, he would certainly be very pleased, but today was different.
Adick's face sank like water; it seemed he should return to Icirrus City.
……
"Why didn't you fight Adick, Mamon?"
On the other side, Mamon and the other two walked openly down the street, and Cresselia curiously asked Mamon.
"Bullying a 'disabled person' isn't very interesting."
Mamon shrugged; even if he wanted to fight Adick, it would have to be a mentally healthy Adick.
The current Adick is not yet prepared for a full-scale battle; he is no different from a 'disabled person'.
"Emmm..." Cresselia tilted her head.
"Let's go; return to Castelia City first. Lance is also about to arrive."
Mamon glanced at his phone; actually, he was quite curious who would come to rescue Quiche.
Thinking about it, it should be N without a doubt; after all, with Adick present, unless the Dark Triad acted by surprise, rescuing Quiche would not be easy.
However, Mamon did not like this uncertainty; let's just leave it like this for now.
Inside a villa in Castelia City.
"My lord Mamon, my lord Caitlin, and this one must be my lord Cresselia? Greetings."
Lance, dressed in casual clothes, bowed very elegantly to the three of Mamon.
"Long time no see, Lance."
Caitlin showed a kind smile and nodded to Lance.
Just as Lance had once expressed that he very much liked Caitlin as a colleague, Caitlin also held strong affection for Lance.
When she first joined Team Rocket, she often sparred and battled with Guzzlord and Lance, and Lance never refused.
This added no small contribution to her path of growth.
Lance smiled and nodded; worth mentioning, a blue Pokémon sat on Lance's shoulder.
Its form was very small and cute, with a head larger than its body, watery big eyes, and ribbon-like antennae on top of its head.
This was indeed Phione.
"Lance, having you come specially from Alola this time was hard work."
"My lord Mamon worries too much; being able to contribute to Team Rocket's development is my honor. Guzzlord also very much wanted to come along, but I had him continue to guard Alola."
Lance shook his head and smiled; he truly did not mind.
Recently, he had been very idle in Alola; being able to come to Unova to exert his abilities made Lance very happy.
"You did right; although Lusamine will basically not cause any major problems, someone is still needed to hold the fort."
Mamon nodded.
The Alola League has now been established, and barring unexpected events, Lusamine has become the president of the Alola League.
With this, with Lusamine cooperating behind the scenes, Team Rocket in Alola can be said to be at the height of its power.
Once Moon becomes the first Champion of the Alola League, the entire Alola region will belong to Team Rocket!
……
Nimbasa City Police Station.
"Champion Adick, I believe I have already said that the only one who appeared before me was that Mamon; there were no other Team Rocket members."
Quiche, expressionless, said calmly to Adick.
Adick frowned slightly; he wanted to determine exactly how many executives of Team Rocket had come to Unova.
"Quiche, you need not take this attitude; do you feel you are very aggrieved?" Adick said in a deep voice.
"That is not the case; it's just that Champion Adick, do you not feel that what we should do most right now is join forces to deal with Team Rocket?"
Quiche spoke slowly; although handcuffs still adorned his hands, he was very calm at this moment.
"Perhaps you do not like us, the Team Plasma, but I can sincerely tell you, Champion Adick, as long as it is to expel Team Rocket, Team Plasma is very willing to cooperate with the Unova League."
Quiche had long regarded the Unova region as his own territory, yet Team Rocket now dared to invade his territory and provoke him so brazenly!
This was something Quiche absolutely could not tolerate!
"The Unova League can deal with Team Rocket! We do not need, nor can we, cooperate with you Team Plasma!"
Adick's face did not look good; although he knew Team Rocket was a man-eating tiger, Team Plasma was absolutely no good either!!
Boom~ Boom-boom~
The muffled sound of thunder slowly entered the interior of the police station.
"Is it really possible? Champion Adick, you know your own situation clearly; do you truly have the ability to deal with that Mamon?"
Quiche stood up and looked straight into Adick's eyes.
Although Adick was still at Champion level, how much of his strength remained compared to his peak?
Quiche had fought Mamon today, so he was very certain that Adick was absolutely no match for that Mamon; it was merely a question of how much time before defeat.
"This has nothing to do with you, Quiche!" Adick's tone was very heavy.
"You cannot do it, Champion Adick; without the assistance of our Team Plasma, you cannot defeat Team Rocket."
Quiche showed a very faint smile.
"If we cannot do it, can you? Quiche, on what grounds?"
Adick simply laughed; he did not know where Quiche got such confidence.
If he hadn't brought the Young Ladies to the scene today, this fellow N would likely have already been captured by Team Rocket.
Yet now, he stands here boasting that he can help the Unova League defeat Team Rocket.
"Of course. Why not go out and see for ourselves?" N smiled faintly.
Boom-boom-boom~
Another low rumble of thunder echoed.
Alder's brows knitted tightly as he looked at N, who was inexplicably confident. This fellow...
"Champion Alder!!"
Suddenly, a Young Lady's voice came through the earpiece Alder was wearing.
"What is it?"
"Outside! A gigantic Pokémon has appeared in the sky outside!"
Hearing this, Alder's expression shifted, and he turned to look at N.
"Did you do this?" Alder's voice was very heavy.
"Shall we go out and take a look, Champion Alder?"
N wore a smile of one who held all the winning cards.
After a moment of hesitation, Alder decisively grabbed N and walked toward the exit of the police station.
It was only five in the afternoon; by all rights, the sky should still have been bright, but at this moment, the entire Nimbasa City was completely shrouded under dark, heavy thunderclouds.
Indeed, the black thunderclouds almost entirely obscured the sky!
"That is..." Alder gazed at the thunderclouds in the sky, his expression utterly Solemn. Within the gray, dark clouds, a dragon silhouette could be faintly seen.
Footsteps approached, and Alder looked ahead.
On the straight road, a handsome young man with green hair, dressed in white and wearing a hat, was slowly walking toward them.
His eyes were lifeless and dim, yet his steps were unwavering.
The muffled sound of thunder continued to roll endlessly from the thunderclouds.
"Champion Alder, have you heard of the founding legend in the Unova myths?"
N's smile gradually grew uncontrollably wild.
Roar~!!
A low, profound dragon's roar came from the thunderclouds. A massive black dragon slowly descended from the clouds, finally landing heavily behind the green-haired youth.
Alder's pupils contracted.
That was precisely Zekrom, the Ideal Dragon God from the Unova founding legends!
