Pokémon: The Genetic Researcher Just Wants to Slack Off

Chapter 103 First Dream Operation

Red was planning to cross Viridian Forest to Pewter City to challenge the Gym Leader.

Now that he's encountered the Rockets and they seem to be looking for something, he naturally won't let them have their way.

The members of the team began to scatter and search for their own areas, leaving only one person in place to search.

Crimson stared intently at its opponent, and as the opponent approached the tree where it was, it quietly instructed Pikachu to accumulate electricity.

The henchman's ears twitched, as if he had heard a noise above him, and he looked up.

It's now!

Crimson flung the pickup truck at the opponent, and the electric current that the pickup truck had been accumulating was also released.

"Sizzle!"

A dazzling flash of lightning startled several pomfret from the trees, which then disappeared into the night sky.

The henchman collapsed to the ground, his muscles convulsing.

The small instrument in my hand also malfunctioned and shut down because of the powerful current passing through it.

Seeing that the other person had been electrocuted and stood up, Chi Hong still found some vines to make a rope and tied the other person to the tree.

For safety reasons, he took out Team Rocket's Poké Ball and used a mobile app to check the other party's settings.

After confirming that "the Pokémon cannot release the ball on its own," Red stuffs the opponent's ball into his own backpack.

With tree fruit stuffed in their mouths and their mouths bound with transparent tape, the henchmen were terrified but unable to make a sound.

The transparent tape was something Red bought on a whim when he left, thinking he would often run into Team Rocket members.

Unexpectedly, it came in handy so quickly. Red couldn't help but marvel at how destined he was to be with the Rockets.

Next time, I'll just carry more rope in my bag, so I don't run out of things to tie people up.

Crimson walked in the direction where the other henchmen had disappeared: although he didn't know what they were going to do, he would just tie them up.

Unbeknownst to him, a pair of familiar small eyes appeared above his head.

Its body gradually revealed its true form, a Pokémon that looked like a pink kitten.

The little guy covered his mouth and chuckled, then flew off in the direction where the crimson had disappeared, dragging his long tail behind him.

On the other side, Natsuno and Kojiro followed the B2 team to the designated location.

Seeing the squad leader looking at him, Natsuno waved his hand again: "Just do as Lance originally planned."

"My assistant and I will go find clues ourselves; you don't need to worry about us."

After saying that, Xia Ye ignored the other person and turned to walk in another direction, signaling Xiao Huang to follow.

Seeing that the people had already moved away from the Rockets, Natsuno looked at Huang.

"Little Huang, you already know Sakaki's purpose, right? Why are you still helping him?"

This was actually Natsuno's reason for not refusing to let Huang come along; he wanted to persuade Huang not to help Sakaki.

Little Yellow remembered what Red had said and took a Poké Ball out of his pocket.

A red light flashed, and Qianqianqiu was released, giving Xiaohuang a gentle look.

Turning around and seeing it was Natsuno, she exclaimed with a hint of surprise, "Pikachu!"

Natsuno's eyes widened: "Asakioka? You and Koyo have formed a bond?"

Qianqianqiu nodded, then gestured to Natsuno while saying "Pikachu".

Unfortunately, the latter didn't understand at all and could only look at Xiao Huang.

The latter laughed: "Yes, I didn't expect that either."

Then Xiao Huang briefly explained his entire experience of accidentally stumbling into the place and being rescued by Chi Hong.

After hearing this story full of twists and turns, Natsuno found it extremely fascinating.

"So you listened to Crimson's advice and decided to trip up Sakaki?"

Xiao Huang nodded: "Chi Hong said that Natsuno-nii is a trustworthy person and asked me to assist you."

Xia Ye mentally gave Chi Hong a thumbs up: Good lad, you knew to help your brother Xia Ye find some helpers, it wasn't for nothing!

Xiao Huang looked at Natsuno with a conflicted expression: "Natsuno-nii, are you really going to help Sakaki create some kind of ultimate weapon?"

Natsuno shook his head: "Even without me, Sakaki would have found someone else to make it, so there's not much difference."

"With the foundation of genetic theory, it's just that when others do the work, it takes more time."

"If I were in charge, there would be new possibilities, but it might not be the case if someone else were in charge."

"Furthermore, Pokémon are not weapons. If Mewtwo is truly born, it has the right to choose its own life."

"What we need to do is prevent Giovanni from taking away His right to choose and let Him go down the path He wants to take."

Xiao Huang nodded, immediately understanding Xia Ye's thoughts: "Then how should I cooperate with you?"

Natsuno shook his head: "Don't be too cooperative with me usually, lest Sakaki become suspicious."

"Just one or two coincidences at the crucial moment are enough."

"By the way, that Eevee, I've already planned to release him away from the base, and I need your help with that."

Xia Ye lowered his voice and plotted with Xiao Huang.

Natsuno was mainly responsible for creating the door to open unexpectedly and for arranging the injection of the medicine.

These past two days, while Xiao Huang was in charge of using the Evergreen Power, he secretly told Ibu about the escape route.

Thinking of the reagents, Xia Ye took out the non-undercover phone, which had been enhanced by the system and had a very strong signal.

Logging into his long-unused account, Natsuno was startled by the sheer number of 99+ replies.

Send the drug formula file, which was also generated by the system on my phone, to Daigo.

There's no way around it, Devon Group is just too convenient and powerful to use.

Having received no reply, Natsuno assumed that Daigo and Anthony were still testing Omanyte's moves, so he didn't bother with it.

While chatting with Xiao Huang about our usual schedules and devising some secret codes, we suddenly noticed that the sky was starting to darken.

It was already close to evening when they left the base.

Realizing their mistake, Natsuno and his companion turned and headed back the way they came.

As darkness fell, the sounds of the Pokémon's activities subsided, and the forest became increasingly quiet.

A faint light came from the woods not far away, accompanied by a cacophony of sounds, so the two quickened their pace.

Three tents appeared in front of them, and the Rockets members walked around the tents.

Seeing Natsuno and the other person appear, they were startled: "Who are you?"

Natsuno brought his handsome face as close to the light as possible: "Don't be nervous, I'm Natsuno. Where are the Lance executives?"

The henchmen breathed a sigh of relief after recognizing Natsuno's face, and one of them pointed to the largest tent in the middle and spoke.

"The Lance officers were in the largest tent, overseeing and directing operations."

After he finished speaking, the henchmen hurriedly ran off in a certain direction; there were quite a few of them.

Xia Ye lifted the tent flap, startling the person inside, who looked up at him.

Several people in black uniforms were fiddling with communication equipment and communicating with various squads.

A map is displayed on the screen, with various red dots flashing on it.

The person in the lead was wearing a white Team Rocket uniform, clearly Lance, an executive.

After Lance clearly saw Natsuno's face, he stood up and invited Natsuno to sit down at the table and chairs next to him.

"Lord Natsuno, what brings you here? Please have a seat. My name is Lance."

"This must be Mr. Huang, right? Boss Sakaki often mentions you to us executives."

Natsuno was surprised by Lance's politeness. He was tired from walking, so he sat down and poured himself a cup of tea.

Xiao Huang didn't know how to respond, so he could only smile.

Lance smiled and asked, "May I ask what brings you two here?"

Xia Ye finished his tea in one gulp, poured a cup of tea for Xiao Huang, and then answered the other party.

"Ah, I heard you guys were going to catch a Mewtwo, so I thought I'd come and check it out."

"Lance, you can tell your men that it's okay if they don't catch him."

"I guess Mew isn't that easy to catch. You guys can just collect some of Mew's fur."

"I don't need the whole Mew; its fur is enough to move the plan forward."

Lance nodded seriously, indicating that he had remembered Natsuno's words.

At this moment, a communications henchman stood up, his voice urgent.

"Reporting to Lance, B13 squad has also lost contact!"
