Chapter 734
Rainbow after the rain...
If it can really be done, it doesn't seem bad.
For himself who has already failed, compared to distancing himself from Silver, letting him generously admit that he is Giovanni's son is obviously a better choice.
Giovanni suddenly showed a smile, and his eyes gradually returned to the shrewdness of weekdays.
"I understand."
"I will consider it seriously."
"In addition... Silver will be entrusted to you during this time, Teacher Yu."
Giovanni spoke sincerely, and lowered his head, making a gesture of bowing.
"If there is such a day, I hope the new Team Rocket can also get Teacher Yu's support."
"After this old bone of mine finishes playing its remaining heat and is defeated by my own son... as Silver's teacher, the future of him and Team Rocket will be entrusted to you."
After finishing, Giovanni reached out, crossed the obstruction of the iron railing, and sent the red tail feather he was carrying into Qingyu's hand.
"Please, Teacher Yu!"
When Qingyu walked out of Giovanni's room, Lance, who had been secretly observing the situation inside, had already cast a look that seemed to carry a bit of incredulity.
Although he didn't go in with Qingyu, the everything that happened inside just now clearly couldn't escape his ears.
Therefore, Lance was very surprised that Qingyu could actually persuade Giovanni.
That is Giovanni! The leader of the extremely evil organization Team Rocket, a human scum who is completely contrary to justice; the probability of him turning over a new leaf and the probability of me suddenly being pasted by a meteor when I go out are both low, okay!
However, after all, it is Qingyu; it always feels like no matter what earth-shattering things he does, it is not strange...
"I didn't expect that Giovanni would actually have a day when his conscience was discovered."
"No, it should be said that the responsibility of a father suppressed the ambition in his heart."
Thousands of words finally turned into a sigh from Lance.
"Is this the power of family affection?"
He was naturally unable to understand this kind of thing; after all, as a Dragonite-man, he had received the strictest education since he was a child and had no room to enjoy family affection at all.
Compared to his father's words, he had a deeper impression of the days of hard practice in the Dragon's Den.
That's right, a real man doesn't need those ethereal bonds at all; having a dragon by his side is enough!
This is the biggest gap in the pattern between myself and Giovanni!
"Isn't this a good thing?"
"I heard that the remnants of Team Rocket seem to have run to Johto; if Giovanni takes action, I believe it will soon be able to integrate Team Rocket and make the work of your International Police much easier."
Qingyu smiled, but his eyes were always focused on the Rainbow Wing he was holding tightly in both hands.
Lance's attention was also soon attracted by this special feather.
Compared to the Sacred Ash provided by their Johto for the champion, the Rainbow Wing undoubtedly has higher value.
After all, this is the tail feather of Lord Ho-Oh!
As everyone knows, Johto people have always worshipped the two gods, Ho-Oh and Lugia, and even built the Bell Tower and Tin Tower for them to inhabit.
However, about 150 years ago, because an accident burned three innocent Pokémon to death, it directly led to the departure of Ho-Oh and Lugia, and they have rarely appeared in front of humans since then.
But also because of this incident, more people firmly believe that it was humans who let the two gods down, so they left human society, leading to an increase instead of a decrease in the number of people worshipping them.
As for the Rainbow Wing, only the Rainbow Hero is qualified to obtain it, which has more symbolic significance than collection value.
The legend of the Rainbow Hero spreads all over the world, and the person holding the Ho-Oh tail feather is naturally respected.
However...
Watching the Rainbow Wing, which was faintly emitting black gas in Qingyu's hand and even the original firm feather was a bit drooping, Lance soon fell into silence.
According to ancient records, the Rainbow Wing, as a part of Lord Ho-Oh's body, naturally also possesses very powerful life breath.
If it is carried by a Pokémon that is good at using the Fire-type, it can gradually master the life flame with healing ability and continuously restore stamina in battle.
Even humans with poor physique who cannot exert the power in it can continuously get nourishment and strengthen their physique.
At the same time, the vigorous life energy should also make it have strong healing and purification capabilities...
So even if it was used by Giovanni for so long, its color only faded a little.
But why did it feel wrong as soon as Qingyu got his hands on it?
I can only say that it is worthy of being Teacher Yu; even Lord Ho-Oh's feather has been blackened...
After thinking for a long time, Lance gave up thinking.
Anyway, it's better to stay in Teacher Yu's hands than to be hidden by Giovanni; although the heart is a bit black, Teacher Yu's character is still impeccable.
Believe it first!
"Speaking of which, if it's not someone recognized by Ho-Oh himself who gets the Rainbow Wing, what will happen?"
Qingyu, who was playing with the feather, also noticed its changes, so he subconsciously asked Lance.
Strictly speaking, he did not get the Rainbow Wing through normal channels.
Could it be that it turned black because of this?
Lance was stunned; he obviously hadn't thought about this question either.
However, Ho-Oh itself, as a legendary existence symbolizing life, is very kind, which is why it could live in peace with humans in ancient times.
So its feathers should be the same.
"Should... be no problem, right?"
"..."
Qingyu observed with a scrutinizing gaze for a while, and after confirming that the feather should be fine, he temporarily canceled his defense.
Anyway, none of his Pokémon are using fire properly yet, so it's just a collection item to eat dust when brought back; it shouldn't cause any trouble, right.
Qingyu soon stopped caring.
Since things in Johto have been solved, he plans to set off to the nearest flight point now, rent a Dragonite and return to the Sunny Gym as soon as possible.
Just when he said goodbye to Lance and got on the Dragonite ready to take off to Paldea, a distortion suddenly appeared under the tree shade not far away, and a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly appeared.
Fortunately, there was no one nearby, otherwise they might have been startled by this sudden scene.
"Lord Ho-Oh's token, actually taken away by a stranger...?"
"Damn it, could it be that my short fishing life has ended..."
"How about, let this world be destroyed..."
The unknown creature in the shadow suddenly let out a sigh, and then soon dived into the tree shade and disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
