The Zapdos was like a grumpy child. Even though it couldn't do anything to the twelve weaklings, it still refused to resolve the dispute through dialogue...
And the Zapdos did have the strength to be grumpy. For example, now that it was willing to put down its so-called "pride", the twelve "weaklings" could hardly stop it.
[There's no point in fighting like this. How about stopping? Of course, if you want to leave, I have no objection.] Guan Liyuan said.
[No, no! I promised Xiao Jin that I would help him do three things! This is a promise, do you know what a promise is?] The Zapdos's noisy voice came over.
[The "Xiao Jin" you're talking about is the owner of the Jin Pavilion in the Dead Leaf City, right? In order to repay Ma Zhishi for saving his life, he gave you two opportunities to help. You also think that Ma Zhishi's two requests are also part of the promise, right?]
[Of course! Don't try to fool me!] The Zapdos seemed to instinctively feel that Guan Liyuan was trying to trick it.
[I'm not lying to you... but I'm asking one more question. Your promise is actually to repay Master Jin, right?]
[Right! So what if it's right?]
[I don't know how much you know about the rules of the human world... but I can tell you clearly that the more you go too far now, the more disadvantageous it will be for Master Jin! Although it was Ma Zhishi who made the request directly to you, it was Master Jin who handed over the opportunity to make the request to Ma Zhishi... No, after today, Jin's title as Master will definitely be deprived by the alliance. If... you continue to cause bigger trouble here, Jin will be further held accountable.] Guan Liyuan
did not lie. Jin also knew this. He should have known from the beginning that Ma Zhishi was using the power of the lightning bird for no good purpose.
However, in order to repay Ma Zhishi for saving his life, Jin has prepared to bear joint liability!
But...
if the situation is still within Jin's expectations so far, then once a large-scale shipwreck occurs, even if it is only joint liability, it is not something Jin can bear!
If Jin was here, he would probably be in the same dilemma as Jun Shakui...
[You, you, you humans are so troublesome! Xiao Jin just asked me to promise that guy to do two things for him. What does it have to do with Xiao Jin? ]
[From the perspective of human rules, of course it is related. Even if there are casualties, it is not enough to deprive the gym leader of the position. ] Guan Liyuan said.
Indeed, the way of thinking of mythical beasts, or Pokémon, is completely different from that of humans in many aspects.
For example, Zapdos believes that what it does now is all the fault of Ma Zhishi and itself, and has nothing to do with Jin.
But... from the perspective of humans, how can it not be related?
Because Zapdos has followed Jin for a period of time, it also has some understanding of the human world. After Guan Liyuan's reminder, it also reacted and its offensive could not help but slow down. Guan Liyuan also secretly told the weak fish group to save some energy and not to force Zapdos too much.
Now Zapdos is also very conflicted. For the mythical beast, "promises" are very sacred and must be fulfilled, but if the promise is made out of gratitude to someone, can it hurt this person for the "promise"?
However, just when Zapdos was quieter, suddenly a louder sound came, echoing the explosion...
"What? Damn it!" Guan Liyuan looked back and found that there was an explosion on the Sant'Anno!
If the Sant'Anno could still float on the water before, but was shaking violently due to the storm, then now... the Sant'Anno is actually losing balance!
The gym owners and Sakaki on the "roof" also looked at Ma Zhishi in shock and anger. Jun Shakui, who had cooperated with him before, almost broke down and asked: "Ma Zhishi! What are you doing?"
"Hahahaha... Sakaki! Don't you want to be the champion of Kanto? Then let's see, if because of Team Rocket and the internal strife of Team Rocket, thousands of people are killed and injured, can you still be the champion of Kanto! Hahahaha..." Ma Zhishi laughed wildly.
It seems that Ma Zhishi has also discovered that Zapdos was delayed, and his plan was about to fail...
Just two minutes ago, when Zapdos was still fighting with twelve "weaklings", Jun Shakui and others began to persuade Ma Zhishi to admit his failure and put down the remote control in his hand.
Who knew that after Ma Zhishi realized that his plan had completely failed, he actually detonated all the bombs in a desperate manner!
If Ma Zhishi's previous actions still had a way to survive in the Pokémon world, then now... even in the overall relaxed "Pokémon world", this is an unforgivable act.
"You guy... all members of Team Rocket! If you don't want to be buried with Ma Zhishi, all of you go and participate in the rescue! "Sakaki said angrily.
Sakaki was also annoyed!
Before this, as long as he arrested Ma Zhishi, the "black sheep" of Team Rocket, he could increase the momentum instead of decreasing it, and further accelerate the Rocket Team's transformation from black to white. However, if it really caused huge casualties, it would not be something that Ma Zhishi could calm down...
At least he had no hope of winning the Kanto Championship, and Team Rocket had to continue to be "black"!
The second half of the sentence was obviously what Sakaki said to the SRs. In fact, they were also very surprised that Ma Zhishi actually did this...
You know, now that the Zapdos is being held back, they can't escape at all!
"Remember to participate in the rescue! Don't think that as long as you use Pokémon to escape, you will be wanted by both the Quartz League and Team Rocket!" Sakaki warned.
"Double wanted... It sounds so scary. "Thatch said frivolously.
This threat is useful for ordinary SRs, but it can't scare them, especially Thatch... She herself is an undercover agent of Team Galaxy in Team Rocket! She doesn't mind being wanted.
"Team Galaxy... I will settle this account with you sooner or later!" Sakaki said with a dark face.
"Hehe, I will convey it to Lord Akagi." After Thatch finished speaking, he released a Mook Hawk commonly seen in the Sinnoh region and set off.
Aju pretended to stop him, but Sakaki stopped him...
"Now is not the time to continue fighting, and Team Galaxy can also... But there is only Ma Zhishi! He must not be let go!" Sakaki said.
What he said halfway was that letting the people of Team Galaxy escape now can actually make the people of Team Galaxy share some of the responsibility. After all, "the undercover agent of Team Galaxy teamed up with Junsha in the Sinnoh region to induce the traitor of Team Rocket to do this kind of thing" - Sakaki has already made a judgment in his mind.
"Want to catch me? Then come and try!"
Ma Zhishi released his other three Pokémon, namely Raichu, Dragonite, and Magneto...
However, with only three king-level Pokémon, it was impossible to stop the group of gym leaders who were as fierce as wolves. Without the threat of bombs, and Ma Zhishi doing such a thing, no one was in the mood to "1vs1" with him. However,
Ma Zhishi only let them block for a while, and turned around and fled, not caring about his own Pokémon, and even did not take back the previous Electabuzz and Raijin.
"Goodbye..." Ma Zhishi whispered to himself.
After that, he used the cabin to avoid the low-altitude pursuit of the flying gym leaders driving flying Pokémon, and was "forced" to the edge of the deck.
"Ma Zhishi! It's over!" Aju shouted.
At this time, Sakaki had already participated in the rescue, trying to save some reputation as much as possible... Aju led the team chasing Ma Zhishi.
"Yes, I'm over... Aju, I hope that Team Rocket will not end under your leadership." Ma Zhishi stepped back a few steps and leaned against the fence.
"Wait... what are you going to do?" Aju suddenly realized something.
"Although it's over, I won't let you catch me!" Aju said as he climbed over the fence and jumped into the sea.
However, many water-type Pokémon had gathered on the sea surface around the Saint Anno, and they also gathered towards Ma Zhishi's "landing point".
However, at the moment when Ma Zhishi landed on the water surface, he released the last Pokémon "Naughty Bullet".
As for Zapdos?
Of course, it is impossible for Ma Zhishi to conclude a relationship of conquering it, even temporarily...
Big explosion - boom!
The king-level Naughty Bullet launched a big explosion (self-destruction), flipping the surrounding water-type Pokémon aside, and even a few of them who were close to it fainted directly.
After the "self-destruction", Naughty Bullet also floated on the water surface unconsciously, and Ma Zhishi had disappeared.
Aju immediately understood that Ma Zhishi had released all his Pokémon before, in addition to a little resistance, to keep them here. Ma Zhishi knew from the beginning that he could not escape!
As for Pokémon...
Although Ma Zhishi's crime is unforgivable, the Pokémon he captured will not be implicated. Usually, if a trainer uses Pokémon to commit a crime, the trainer will be deprived of the right to train. As for Pokémon... after it is determined that they have no subjective malice, they will be released by the alliance or handed over to other trainers. Only a very small number of Pokémon with subjective malice will be treated as special cases.
Ma Zhishi's Raichu, Dragonite and Magneto were actually stopped by Jun Shakui in the end, which shows that there was no subjective malice...
Guan Liyuan had already flown back to the sky above the Sant'Annu on Pidgeot. Looking at the Sant'Annu that was being dismembered and sunk bit by bit, he had decided to release Chaoparis to "save the ship"!
He believed that it could definitely hold up the entire ship...
"Liyuan! Do you still have Orochi and Orochi?" Sakaki shouted on the deck at this time.
"No more, all down there!"
Passengers were already being transferred... However, without lifeboats, they could only use the method of entering the mouths of the Howler whales and the King Howler whales to take shelter, and at most a few hundred people could be rescued. With other water-type Pokémon, at most a thousand people could be rescued...
Under Sakaki's strict orders, the Rockets were still maintaining the order of the rescue. Fortunately, the sunrise could be seen slightly in the distance, and the thunderclouds were only around the Sant'Anno.
However, if this continued, I'm afraid these "rescue whales" could only rescue a thousand passengers, and the Rockets and the sailors and staff on the ship would have no way to do anything!
Although some of the Rockets had already searched for some floating objects in the cabin under Sakaki's orders, it was obviously not very effective.
"It would be great if the storm could stop... Liyuan! Don't waste time here, even one... Keep flying farther and see if you can find the King Howler whale!" Sakaki shouted.
If the storm stopped, they could use the piggyback method to rescue, and there was no need to worry about humans slipping in the storm...
Zapdos was actually trying its best to disperse the thunderclouds, but the efficiency seemed a bit poor!
"Actually, I have a better idea..." Guan Liyuan didn't want to expose Chaoparis so early, but now there is no better choice.
A school of weaklings? They are bodies made of water energy, and ordinary humans cannot survive in them!
Unless the storm stops, the school of weaklings will not be of much use in the rescue...
However, just when Guan Liyuan had already grasped the dragon tooth pendant, the sky suddenly brightened a little...
Chi -
a sound that sounded a bit like the cry of a lightning bird, but it was louder than Guan Liyuan had ever heard.
The thunderclouds were dispersing at an accelerated speed, and the storm gradually subsided. Judging from the speed of dissipation this time... it's still in time!
