Chapter 542
"……"
For Giovanni's understatement, Xiang Qingyu was a bit speechless for a while.
What is "entrusting Mewtwo to me"? Clearly, the righteous Teacher Yu swept across Kanto's evil and rescued innocent Pokémon from Team Rocket!
"As for future matters, don't bother Gym Leader Giovanni."
Xiang Qingyu shook his head helplessly.
"Also, Mewtwo is not a tool for you to conquer the world. It is also a Pokémon with its own ideas. Its future should be decided by itself, not by a decision made easily by you, Gym Leader Giovanni, saying 'entrust it to me'."
"In a sense, Mewtwo is also a child you created with your own hands. Your attitude toward your children is not worth complimenting, Gym Leader Giovanni."
If it were just in the game, Xiang Qingyu wouldn't hate Giovanni, this pure villain.
But in reality, many of his concepts are a bit absurd in Xiang Qingyu's view...
Clearly Mewtwo is already a gene Pokémon he spent a lot of money to create, so can't he spend some time getting along with it normally and slowly use his personality charm to gain its favor?
If it were such a Giovanni, he would be a bit scary, which can be said to have filled the last short board.
Among all the villain bosses in the Pokémon world, Giovanni can be considered one with a relatively prominent personality charm.
But he went the other way, insisting on making it look like a harsh supervisor, slowly letting Mewtwo's favor for him drop to the freezing point.
This set of dealing with his subordinates might indeed be useful, but wanting to rely on his own pressure to make a pure, newborn Pokémon submit is obviously a very difficult thing.
Using tough means to bring up children, can they not be rebellious in the end?
It's a pity that Giovanni is a villain, otherwise Xiang Qingyu would really have to instill some parenting scriptures into him.
Maybe in this world, Giovanni's own son Silver also exists?
If he treats Silver with the same attitude as Mewtwo, the father-son kindness and filial piety of this Team Rocket father and son in the future is probably unavoidable...
Xiang Qingyu's reply was obviously something Giovanni didn't expect.
He was clearly stunned for a moment, seemed a bit trance-like, and it took a long time before he sighed.
"Xiang Qingyu, you are right, I am indeed not a good father."
"But I am therefore even more certain—"
Halfway through the words, Giovanni suddenly paused, his gaze passing through Xiang Qingyu, who raised his eyebrows and waited for his next sentence, and looked at Mewtwo, who had regained his sanity at some point and was watching him with complex eyes behind him.
Giovanni quickly showed a relieved smile.
Originally, perhaps Mewtwo would still have some resistance to him.
But when Xiang Qingyu didn't even notice that Mewtwo had awakened, these few well-timed words might directly refresh the impression of humans in Mewtwo's heart.
Combined with various absurd rumors before...
While Xiang Qingyu is close to Mew, he seems to have an unusual relationship with a rare black Rayquaza.
"Sure enough, Xiang Qingyu is also a special existence, a 'lucky one' who is exceptionally favored by this world."
"That's all for now, as for how Mewtwo will choose..."
"As Xiang Qingyu said, let it decide its own will."
Although he said so, Giovanni already had the answer in his heart—
With the foreshadowing just now, coupled with the relationship between Xiang Qingyu and Mew, Mewtwo now will absolutely not refuse Xiang Qingyu.
Just as Giovanni finished speaking, a white light flashed before his eyes, making him narrow his eyes subconsciously.
A pair of silver handcuffs appeared in his line of sight, followed by the teasing expression of the man wearing a red-black cape.
"I didn't expect that the biggest umbrella of Team Rocket had been hiding within the Kanto Alliance, and was still the Viridian Gym Leader that everyone respected."
While blocking in front of Xiang Qingyu, Lance sneered and spoke to Giovanni.
"So why, Giovanni senior, who possesses the Viridian Forest blessing like me, became what he is now?"
Once these words were spoken, Xiang Qingyu's ears stood up instantly.
Good guy, sure enough, there is melon!
However... Viridian Power?
There is indeed such a thing in his memory.
There are many special powers in the Pokémon world. Besides the most common psychic power, there are also Aura power that some gifted humans can learn, and the Alpha power that is said to be bestowed by Arceus himself to human successors.
And the Viridian Power in Lance's mouth.
This kind of special power is a setting in the special manga edition. It is said that a child blessed by the forest will appear near the Viridian Forest every ten years, and they all possess this special power.
Not only can it be used to heal Pokémon, but it can also read the thoughts in their hearts,
And can even develop other special uses.
