Pokémon: Who let him leave Pallet Town?

Chapter 382 Should I seize this opportunity to make a name for myself?

Based on his memory of that photograph, Natsume touched the edge of the black stone pillar.

The moment Natsume looked at the stone pillar, his pupils contracted.

"Black stick?"

Almost blurted out, golden telekinetic energy instantly attached itself to these black stone pillars.

There are ten stone pillars in total, arranged in a circle, each composed of thousands of black rods.

In the center of the stone pillar, there is a large stone bed made of piled stones and covered with withered grass.

"Why are there so many!"

Natsume stared intently at the ten black stone pillars.

The nearly 30,000 black rods combined spontaneously formed a strange power, absorbing all the energy that came into view.

Even his golden telekinetic power couldn't withstand these black rods for long.

It was swallowed up almost immediately after the probe was completed.

Natsume carefully withdrew his telekinetic powers and prepared to physically step forward to investigate.

"Ouch!"

A Dragonite descended from the sky, and Natsume bent down.

"Ok?"

Wataru scanned his surroundings but did not find Natsume.

"Awoo. Awoo"

Beneath it, the Dragonite's whimpering sounded as its energy continued to drain away.

"Leave first!"

Du's face turned pale as he gave the order.

Natsume is a psychic, so he should be able to sense the danger here and won't act recklessly as usual.
Dragonite flapped its wings and wobbled away.

Natsume stood up, raising an eyebrow as he looked at Dragonite's departing figure.

"To make Lance's Dragonite so weak in such a short time."

Natsume's gaze returned to the black stone pillars.

Sure enough, quantitative change led to qualitative change.

The 365 black rods can only absorb the energy of the moves.

And just standing next to more than 30,000 black rods will cause your body's energy to leak out spontaneously.

Judging from Du's expression, this energy loss also has an effect on humans.

Don't rush in
After thinking for a moment, Natsume decided to call for a vanguard team.

So he dialed Miaomiao's number.

"Drip drip drip drip!"

On a grassy field, the large translation book in Meow Meow's hand suddenly sounded an alarm.

"Don't shock me, meow! It's not time yet, meow!" Meow meow covered her head.

Unexpectedly, the headband on her head didn't generate any electricity at all; instead, Natsume's voice rang out from inside the translated book.

"Meow, I have a quest for you, do you want to accept it?"

As Natsume's voice rang out, Musashi and Kojiro, who were standing nearby, immediately perked up their ears.

"Who wants to take your mission, meow? How dare you tell me that, meow!"

Meow Meow was furious. She noticed the flashing red dot on the translation book and was about to go over and turn it off.

"This is a mission that could make you a wanted man throughout the entire alliance."

"What?" Musashi and Kojiro simultaneously pressed down on Meow Meow's hand.

"And you'll be held a grudge by a champion!" Natsume said seriously.

"what!!!"

The trio's exclamations came from the other end.

"Is this true, meow?" Meow asked impatiently.

"Of course, I'm absolutely not lying to you."

"Alright, alright!" Kojiro snatched the large book and said to the red dot:
"Natsume, you'd better save this mission of making a name for yourself for us, don't ask anyone else for it!"

"Yeah, yeah, it's practically tailor-made for our Team Rocket's Super Special Operations Group!"

Musashi's voice followed closely behind.

After sending the location, Natsume squatted down and began to wait.

While waiting, Natsume took out his notebook and began to peruse the information stolen by the Pompeii.

After observing for a long time, Natsume finally realized that the people at the power plant were collecting some kind of audio.

What's the use?

Natsume found it very strange.

They even conducted a special analysis of these audio recordings.

Natsume listened to it several times and realized that it seemed to be the sound of a Dragonite.

However, the sound the other person made was very peculiar. It sounded like singing, with a clever rhythm.

After fiddling with it for nearly two hours, Natsume still couldn't figure it out.

On the horizon, a cat-head balloon appeared.

Under the cover and guidance of the golden telekinesis, the Rocket trio successfully reunited with Natsume.

"Tell me quickly, what kind of mission is it, meow!"

"Hahaha, we're about to make a name for ourselves!"

"Yeah, yeah, Natsume, if you're of any use, you can call some reporters over and take lots of pictures of my pretty face, hahaha!"

Seeing the trio use their "halfway through the game, pop champagne" technique, Natsume quickly interrupted them:

"Aren't you going to listen to what the mission is first?"

Natsume's expression was quite serious.

"What mission, meow?"

Meow Meow looked at the other party in confusion. To be honest, the trio had never seen Natsume with such an expression before, and they were momentarily stunned.

"For you guys."

As Natsume spoke, he gave each of the three a camera.

"camera?"

"What kind of mission could this be that would make you famous and get you wanted by the entire alliance, Meow?"

"Are you suggesting we secretly film some champion trainer?"

The trio were a little confused.

“No.” Natsume pointed to the black building in the distance and said:

"Do you see those black stone pillars?"

"Go over there and take pictures of every detail inside and out."

Natsume instructed.

"What? Meow? This can really be wanted by the entire alliance?" Meow didn't believe it.

"Yeah, you're not lying to us, are you?" Kojiro and Musashi frowned.

“Of course you can.” Natsume took out Watari’s recording.

"Does this sound familiar? It's the Heavenly King of the Guandu Dragon series, the future champion of Chengdu."

Natsume reminded him.

"Is it really true, meow?"

The trio exchanged a glance, their eyes gleaming.

"Wait a moment!"

Seeing that the trio was about to run into the boulder without saying a word, Natsume called them back.

Natsume tied a rope around each person's waist.

Why tie a rope?

"You're not suggesting we commit crimes so you can just arrest us and collect the bounty, are you, meow!"

Meow Meow tugged at the rope in her hand and suddenly realized.

"Do I look like that kind of person?" Natsume looked at the trio earnestly.

"Yes, it does." The trio nodded in unison.

While others might not have such a lot of free time, it's hard to say for Natsume.

"The ropes are there to ensure your safety. If you faint or something, I can pull you back."

Natsume explained.

"Hahaha, what danger could there be, meow!"

The trio laughed, nonchalantly holding their cameras, and walked towards the black stone pillar.

Soon, the smiles on their faces disappeared.

"That's weird, meow, why does my camera feel heavier, meow?"

Meow Meow felt dizzy and lightheaded. She went to the stone pillar, pressed the shutter button, and then collapsed to the ground with the camera in her hands.

"It's not that the camera got heavier, it's that we ran out of strength," Kojiro said weakly.

"Relax, it's normal to feel dizzy," Natsume's voice rang out.

He pulled the rope, but in the distance, the trio's bodies, which looked like tiny black dots, didn't move at all.

As he pulled, Natsume pulled back a rope end with a smooth cut surface.

The trio secretly cut the rope!
"?"

Natsume turned his head and looked at the three of them, Nyanko, from a distance with a puzzled expression.

"Help me, meow! I feel like I'm going to die, meow!"

"You still dare to criticize meow meow? It was all your bad idea! I should have known better than to cut it!"
