Pokémon: Who let him leave Pallet Town?

Chapter 525 Satellite Launch
The afterglow of dusk bathed the skyscrapers of Feiyun City in a golden-red hue.

"Bang!"

The soda can traced a perfect parabola through the air before landing precisely in the trash can.

Natsume yawned.

He closed his eyes, and a vast amount of telekinetic energy, like an invisible spider web, quietly spread out.

It requires almost no effort.

With that unique sense of familiarity, he quickly and accurately detected a faint yet extremely familiar mental fluctuation, filled with dependence and unease, like a firefly in the night.

"found it"

Natsume showed an expression that said, "I knew it."

The chibi version of Gadlia is in the laboratory from the last Eye of the Sky.

As night falls, the city lights begin to illuminate the night.

Natsume was in no hurry to act. He patiently waited for Rotom, number two, to scout ahead.

"Zi La~"

Time passed by minute by minute.

"Internal structure, security rotation, core laboratory location, similarity with the previous data is 98.7%."

Natsume used his telekinesis to sense the information transmitted by Rotom No. 2 and understood.

As expected, Team Rainbow Rocket did not detect his previous infiltration, and they didn't even bother to change the security settings.

Late at night, everything is silent.

Natsume's figure appeared silently in the shadows of the Peace Dove Company headquarters building, like ink blending into the night.

"Lollerton, thank you again!"

The shadows gradually enveloped everything, silently.

The route was almost exactly the same as last time, and he quickly arrived at the core laboratory area.

Through the rift between the real world and the antimatter world, Natsume takes in the entire scene inside the laboratory.

The core laboratory was brightly lit, and the massive core component of the Sky Eye satellite floated in the central energy field, emitting a ghostly blue light.

Several researchers in white lab coats were working busily at the control panel, with complex data streams scrolling across the screen.

Natsume subconsciously looked toward the center of the most conspicuous energy field.

There, a petite figure floated.

It's the chibi version of Cattleya imprisoned by the Dark Orb!
But it was completely different from the innocent and adorable appearance in Natsume's memory.

At this moment, she was surrounded by a faint, ominous black mist.

Her originally smooth, short, golden hair stood up like a hedgehog, giving her a sharp and rebellious look.

Those clear, azure eyes were now slightly narrowed, with the corners turned up, carrying a hint of indifference and aloofness, as if some kind of malevolence had been forcibly injected into them.

Her small nose was slightly wrinkled, her lips were pressed into a stubborn straight line, and her body was shrouded in shadow, making her look somewhat ferocious.

Rainbow N stood in front of the control panel, arms crossed, her long green hair standing out under the lights.

His face was expressionless, his eyes sharp, but he wasn't looking at the center of the energy field; instead, he was staring intently at the phone in his hand.

After Natsume finished looking at the chibi version of Gadriya, he looked at her curiously.

Upon closer inspection, Rainbow N discovered that the main character in the video she was watching was none other than Dragonite!

The other person is extending their finger to zoom in on the video.

Soon, the entire video was filled with a huge black monument.

"I never imagined that after so many years, there would still be natives using this?"

A mocking smile appeared on Rainbow N's lips.

"The energy compatibility rate is still below the threshold."

A researcher wiped the sweat from his brow, his voice filled with anxiety.

Rainbow N looked up, her eyes hidden under the brim of her hat, so Natsume couldn't see her emotions.

He slowly rubbed the ring on his hand, signaling the researchers to continue.

"The core frequency of the Life Doll and the telekinetic capsule of the Eye of the Sky can never be fully synchronized, and the repulsion reaction is strong. If we force the fusion, it may damage the core components."

"The lead researcher quickly said."

"Increase energy output and forcefully suppress it." Rainbow N's voice was cold and devoid of any emotion.

"But."

“Execute the order,” Rainbow N interrupted, her tone leaving no room for argument.

The researchers reluctantly began operating the equipment.

The energy field suddenly intensified, and the dark blue beams of light coiled around the chibi version of Gadria like chains.

"Well!"

The chibi version of Cattleya let out a painful groan, her body struggling violently in the black mist, her eyes filled with even more ferocity, yet also carrying a trace of undisguised pain.

Natsume saw it clearly from the shadows.

Exclusion?

Natsume shook his head slightly.

This is not about having children at all.

It is the consciousness of the Eye of the Sky that is rejecting it.

Or perhaps it's the consciousness he created for the other party last time that's rejecting it.

This Heavenly Eye consciousness, nurtured by Natsume himself, is like a newborn, proud child with an independent personality.

How could it possibly tolerate an outsider occupying the core and dominating the organism?

"The time has come." Natsume felt he had to do something.

Without further hesitation, his immense telekinetic power, like the most precise probe, instantly pierced through the thick bulletproof glass and the energy field barrier.

Natsume precisely connected with two targets—the chibi version of Cattleya struggling in pain, and the bewildered yet stubborn newborn consciousness inside the core of the Eye of the Sky.

Om-!
The moment Natsume's familiar and gentle telekinesis touched the chibi version of Cattleya, a miracle occurred that even Natsume hadn't expected.

The malevolent black mist surrounding her, imposed by the Dark Sphere, surged and twisted violently as if it had encountered its nemesis, dissipating rapidly at a visible speed.

Her short, bluish-gold hair, which had been standing on end, instantly softened and regained its original fluffy and cute appearance.

Those narrowed, menacing eyes suddenly widened, the coldness and aloofness in their pupils melting away like ice and snow, instantly replaced by a clear, bright azure.

Her tightly pursed lips parted slightly, revealing a mixture of disbelief, surprise, and grievance. In that brief moment of contact, the fierce little witch corrupted by darkness vanished without a trace, transforming back into the chibi version of Cattleya that Natsume knew, a version tinged with a touch of naivety and dependence.

what happened?

Natsume was shocked.

It takes a very strong bond to demonstrate the Dark Sphere's spiritual erosion of Cattleya's life doll's affection for her, which seems to be beyond Natsume's imagination.

He clicked his tongue in surprise.

Aside from Ash, Natsume never imagined that something like "Making Killer Bee fall in love with me in three minutes" could happen to him!

At the same time, Natsume's telekinesis gently enveloped the nascent consciousness within the core of the Eye of the Sky.

"Don't be afraid. Do as I say and cooperate with her." Natsume conveyed reassurance and instructions in his mind.

That naive consciousness seemed to recognize Natsume's aura, and sense his kindness and guidance. The strong sense of rejection that was originally there quickly subsided, and was replaced by curiosity and obedience.

Rainbow N keenly sensed the unusual changes in the energy field.

He suddenly looked up, his sharp gaze sweeping across the center of the energy field.

When he saw the black mist on the chibi version of Gadria instantly dissipate and she return to her original pure and lovely appearance, his green pupils suddenly contracted, and for the first time, a clear look of astonishment appeared on his face.

"The effect of the Dark Sphere has expired?" He frowned and subconsciously reached into his pocket.

The crystal sphere suddenly turned pitch black, remained cold, and was full of energy, showing no signs of failure.

However, something even more unexpected happened.

The chibi version of Gadalia, restored to her original form, not only did not resist, but instead actively floated towards the core telekinetic pod of the Eye of the Sky.

Her movements were no longer filled with painful struggle, but rather with a strange calmness and cooperation.

The rejection reaction in the core of the Eye of the Sky also receded rapidly, like a receding tide.

The pale blue energy beams were no longer violent, but instead became gentle, as if welcoming her, guiding the chibi version of Gadria to blend into them.

Rainbow N's brows furrowed even more.

He stared intently at the bizarre yet smooth fusion process before him, his eyes filled with vigilance and bewilderment.

He pulled out the Dark Orb again and aimed it at the chibi version of Cattleya that was merging.

However, just as he was about to take it back, he hesitated.

Integration has begun.

Forcibly interrupting it could not only damage the life doll, but also destroy the core of the Eye of the Sky.

Moreover, the fusion process seems unusually smooth. It is very possible that the previous fusion failures were because the life doll was affected by the dark sphere.

Weighing the pros and cons, a decisive glint flashed in Rainbow N's eyes.

He slowly retracted the dark sphere, crossed his arms again, but his eyes, as cold and still as a deep pool, did not miss a single detail.

Natsume, hidden in the shadows, observed Rainbow N's reaction.

A barely perceptible smile curved his lips.

Natsume was perfectly aware of the purpose behind the Eye of the Sky's attempt to stop the Peace Dogs' attack.

It simply allows ordinary members of Team Rainbow Rocket to enter and leave this world more freely and safely.

So that you won't be targeted by a peace-loving dog as soon as you enter this world, and then die instantly upon landing.

Once we can freely and safely enter this world, it will most likely be the time for the Rainbow Rocket Team to launch a large-scale invasion.

Natsume watched expressionlessly as the chibi version of Gadria entered the telekinetic chamber.

More, the more the better.
The following day, in front of the headquarters building of Peace Dove Company in Feiyun City.

The huge open-air plaza was decorated in a dazzling manner.

A red carpet was laid out, surrounded by flowers, and a huge screen displayed a 3D rendering of the Tianqiong Eye satellite, with a prominent slogan next to it: "Protect the Eye of the Planet, Build a Green Future Together."

A grand satellite launch press conference is underway.

Below the stage, media reporters, environmentalists, technology enthusiasts, and political and business figures from all over the world were gathered.

Flashes of light went off one after another, and the crowd was in an uproar.

Rainbow N wore a well-tailored dark gray haute couture suit, her long green hair was dyed pure black and carefully combed back, revealing her smooth forehead and deep features.

He stood under the spotlight, a formulaic, impeccable smile on his face, exuding confidence and composure in every gesture.

As the newly appointed CEO of Peace Dove Company, he introduced the Sky Eye project to the world—an environmental satellite dedicated to monitoring global environmental changes and protecting ecological balance.

"The Eye of the Sky will use state-of-the-art remote sensing technology to weave a green protective net for our planet."

His voice, delivered through the microphone, resonated throughout the venue, steady yet captivating.

In an inconspicuous corner of the audience, several figures dressed in a low-key manner but with an extraordinary aura mingled among the crowd.

They may have looked like ordinary spectators or staff, but the glances they exchanged revealed an undisguised excitement and fervor.

"Finally, it's about to begin."

"We've waited too long for this moment."

"With it, the door will be completely open."

They spoke in hushed tones, their voices barely audible, yet their excitement was palpable.

One of the men, wearing a baseball cap, was so excited that he unconsciously squeezed the paper cup in his hand, deforming it, and didn't even notice that coffee had spilled all over the floor.

That damned cannon beast on Silver Mountain has been suppressing their organization for thousands of years!

Among the crowd, Natsume was wearing an ordinary hoodie with the brim pulled low.

He stood quietly in the back row, his gaze calmly sweeping over Rainbow N, who was speaking eloquently on the stage, and then over the few War Dragon followers who could not hide their excitement.

The press conference was halfway through.

Suddenly—"Sizzle!"

A large gush of liquor suddenly sprayed out.

"Who is it? Don't you have eyes?!"

The followers of the War Dragon turned around abruptly and saw a masked young man shaking a bottle of liquor. They were enraged.

"Hey, hey, don't be angry."

As if by magic, Natsume conjured up a row of wine glasses.

"Would you like some fine champagne?"

The group exchanged strange glances, and when they saw the dragon scale token faintly visible in Natsume's pocket, they all nodded in understanding.

"Haha, we definitely need to open a bottle of champagne!"
