Pokémon: This trainer is too wild!

Chapter 493 The Masked Man who once subdued Ho-Oh and Lugia!
The atmosphere in the conference hall was tense.

No one made a sound, after all, the two people ranked second and third on the merit list were openly fighting over a man!
Who would dare to wade into these muddy waters at this time?

Then it was Touko's turn. Under Mei's desperate tugging, Touko had no choice but to bite the bullet and approach Mei, silently offering her sister's support.

There was nothing she could do; Mei was her best friend. Who else would she help if not Mei?

Noticing this as well, Mizuki sneered, "Fine, fine!"
One or two of them dared to steal my man right in front of me; they completely disregard me!

"Cough cough~"

Mammon coughed, timely breaking the dangerous atmosphere.

"Mei, your request is not appropriate. I have a girlfriend, so I'm sorry I can't grant your request."

Mammon smiled and spoke to Mei, clearly indicating that he was on Mei's side.

That's inevitable. Judging from Mei and Mizuki's current state, if they keep glaring at each other, they might start fighting soon.

This is not what Mammon wanted to see, even though he knew perfectly well that Mei couldn't possibly beat Mizuki.

But it really looks a bit ugly.

Seeing Mammon speak up for her, Mizuki gave a smug snort and glanced triumphantly at Mei.

So what if she has bigger breasts? Don't you even know whose man you like is?

Tsk~ In the end, she's just a woman with unrequited love. The man you dream about day and night is someone I kick every day.

Mizuki didn't even bother to look at the woman with the bun hairstyle anymore. With Mammon's words, the outcome of the battle was already decided.

To be honest, Mizuki actually hoped Mammon would stay silent so she could teach this bun-haired guy a lesson.

"Okay~ Can I ask for something else?"

Mei didn't take Mizuki's smug expression to heart, blinked, and spoke crisply to Mammon.

"As long as it's not too excessive," Mammon replied tactfully.

"Of course not, otherwise Mizuki will be unhappy, and I'll be careful."

Mei sat down with a smile, still speaking in her usual tea-tea style.

Touko is already drenched in sweat, sister!!
Are you really not afraid that we won't be able to go to Hezhong again?

"Heh~" Mizuki crossed her arms and chuckled.

"Meiyue and Xiaoguang, do you have any ideas?" Mammon looked at Prantina and Meiyue.

Meiyue was thoughtful.

And Prantina, for some reason, had her ears turn red.

“Um… Mr. Mammon…”

"What's wrong, Xiao Guang?"

"I……"

Prantina took a deep breath, as if trying to muster her courage, but with so many people around, her voice unconsciously softened.

Sure enough, she still couldn't bring herself to say such things in public.

Prandina covered her face and sat down again.

Serena rolled her eyes. "What a useless little Guang, so utterly useless."

Mizuki naturally didn't have any demands. Mammon was her boyfriend, so what more could she ask for?
The meeting concluded after each officer who participated in the Battle of Golden City was awarded a medal.

Of course, the turmoil surrounding this battle is far from over.

The Kanto Alliance suddenly demanded that the residents of Saffron City evacuate, and the subsequent battle in Saffron City was naturally witnessed from afar.

Not to mention the post-war damage to the Golden City area, especially around the Silver Tower, which was left in complete disarray.

This situation naturally sparked heated discussions.

This year, several major cities in various regions have suffered varying degrees of damage.

For example, Larousse City in Hoenn, Lunare City in Kalos, and Motostoke City in Galar.

Larousse City was affected by the turmoil caused by the battle between Deoxys and Rayquaza; Luna City was affected by the unrest within Team Flare; and Motostoke City was affected by the desire to completely subdue Eternatus.

But what about Golden City this time?
Many people are very curious about this, but those involved in the Golden City incident are keeping quiet, so no one outside knows.

Therefore, the public can only wait for an official explanation from the Kanto Alliance.

This gave Damalan a huge headache, and he couldn't think of a reason for it at the moment.

However, this kind of thing is a headache for Damalanchi, and has nothing to do with Mammon.

One day has passed since the battle of Golden City.

Mammon arrived in the city of Johto, accompanied by four women: Gadriya, Chiran, Mizuki, and Prandina. They were quite the sight to behold as they walked along the road.

There's no other reason than that all four women are incredibly beautiful, especially Cattleya and Orchid.

Kaji Town, the northernmost town in the Johto region, is also known as the Ninja Village.

Mammon and his group arrived at that moment, but someone was already waiting for them.

“Lord Mammon, you’re being far too ostentatious, like a young master going on a parade.”

Xiao Lan, wearing a hat, looked around nervously. When she saw Mammon and the others approaching, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously made a joke.

After all, at this moment, Mammon really looked just like a rich young master traveling with his girlfriends.

Hmm, he looks a lot like the younger brother from Green, but Mammon is much more handsome than that guy named Xiao Mao. And the looks, figures, and temperament of Gadria and the others are far superior to Xiao Mao's girlfriends.

"Boss, if you don't come soon, I'm afraid this girl will sneak away."

Pear Blossom sat on a large rock, resting her chin on her hand, and spoke with a smile.

"Who would sneak away? I've discovered that you, Rika, never miss an opportunity to smear me!"

Xiao Lan was very dissatisfied.

"Oh~ then don't tremble when you see the teacher later." Pear Blossom's lips curled into a smile that seemed both mocking and sarcastic.

"I'm not afraid of that guy at all!" Xiao Lan stubbornly insisted.

"That would be best." Pear Blossom tilted her head slightly, looked at Little Blue for a while, and then replied lazily.

"Rika, have you made the appointment?" Mammon asked Rika, ignoring their bickering. "I've already contacted the teacher. The appointed time... let me see, there are still about ten minutes left."

Pear Blossom glanced at her watch and nodded.

That's right, they're here today to see the masked man.

Besides Rika and Xiaolan, Xiaoyin and Yishu also arrived; they too were from the Masked Organization.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Lan pursed her lips. The usually cheerful Xiao Lan now had an unprecedentedly gloomy look in her eyes.

Masked Man...

Her nightmare is the masked man!
In Xiao Lan's view, the turning point in her life came because of this mysterious person.

She originally had a happy family, but one day, the legendary giant bird Pokémon Ho-Oh appeared and kidnapped her.

This incident cast a deep shadow on her young mind at the time, and even caused her to develop an extremely severe fear of birds.

Her body trembles uncontrollably whenever she sees bird-type Pokémon; it's quite severe.

Fortunately, with the help of Xiaoyin Chihong and others, her ornithophobia has improved significantly this year.

At least she didn't become completely weak-kneed at the sight of bird-type Pokémon.

"Mammon, are we really going to see the Masked Man? That guy is far too dangerous, and he definitely has some ulterior motive!"

Xiao Lan spared no effort in expressing her opinion on the Masked Man; she had absolutely no liking for him whatsoever.

"Don't worry, I'll handle it. Besides, the masked man kidnapped my younger brother when he was little, so I have to get an explanation from him."

Mammon chuckled and waved to Xiao Lan, signaling her not to get excited.

Xiao Lan didn't say anything more after hearing this. Although the masked man was very strong, he probably wasn't a match for Mammon.

Moreover, they have so many powerful individuals on their side.

That's right, even if it's a masked man, there's nothing to worry about!
Xiao Lan thought to herself.

A few minutes later, a masked man wearing a wide black robe and with wild, long hair arrived.

He wore a hideous and eerie mask made of ice, and his entire body was shrouded in a black robe, with not a single inch of skin showing.

Even without saying a word, the first impression one gets is one of extreme coldness and evil.

Upon seeing the masked man, Xiao Lan trembled slightly and subconsciously took small steps back. Even Xiao Yin nervously moved closer to Mammon.

"Is this the Masked Man?"

Mizuki looked at the masked man wearing an ice mask with great curiosity.

"I've never heard of such a person in Kanto before."

Zhu Lan frowned, staring intently at the masked man in black robes.

Through Xiao Lan's words, they learned the truth about the events of ten years ago.

Ten years ago, Ho-Oh and Lugia, two legendary Pokémon, were tasked by Masked Man to capture talented children throughout the Kanto region.

Xiao Lan and Xiao Yin were arrested around that time.

And that's the key point!
Lugia and Ho-Oh are both benevolent Pokémon, so why would they help people commit such a kidnapping crime?
According to Xiao Lan, Lugia and Ho-Oh were both Pokémon captured by the Masked Man!

"teacher."

When the pear blossoms and the tree saw the masked man arrive, they both bowed slightly to him with respectful expressions.

The masked man didn't look at them; his eyes, hidden beneath the ice sculpture mask, were fixed on Xiao Lan, his gaze chillingly cold.

Little Blue trembled even more violently and immediately hid behind Mammon.

The masked man didn't seem to care much, and his deep, cold gaze shifted to Mammon.

"Rockets boss Mammon, I heard from Rika that you were looking for me?"

The masked man's voice was very hoarse, and because of the mask, it sounded somewhat distorted and blurry.

It's impossible to tell his age from his voice; in fact, it's as if he did it on purpose.

“That’s right, do you think I shouldn’t have come looking for you? Masked Man, ten years ago, you kidnapped my younger brother and kept him out of contact with us for a full ten years.”

"I think we should really take stock of this."

Mammon tilted his head slightly, a smile playing on his lips as he looked at the masked man with great interest.

"Is that so?" The masked man's tone remained unchanged upon hearing this. He glanced at Rika and noticed that Rika was shrugging innocently at him.

The masked man's gaze grew colder. That girl, Rika, hadn't said that to him back then.

However, this situation was within the Masked Man's expectations.

"If that's what you came for, I can apologize to you, or perhaps, how can I make it up to you?" the masked man said calmly.

"Ten years of separation from loved ones, and you make it sound so easy," Mammon chuckled.

"Never mind, I suppose you wouldn't care about such things anyway."

The masked man remained silent. He truly didn't care. He had long since lost his so-called blood relatives, and his friends were gone just as long.

He only cares about his own wish now, and he doesn't care about anything else in order to fulfill it.

"I've heard that Team Rocket's boss has many legendary Pokémon and is closely related to Dialga, the Time Dragon from Sinnoh's mythology, is that right?"

The masked man didn't want to beat around the bush anymore; the most important reason he came here to see Mammon was this.

In Goldenrod City, Dialga appeared and fought against Giovanni's Primal Groudon. Rinka witnessed this firsthand and even took pictures of it.

"That's right, and then what?"

Mammon did not deny it, but asked the masked man a question in return.

The masked man remained silent for a long time before his deep, hoarse voice finally broke through.

“As long as you, Mr. Mammon, are willing to let Dialga do me a favor, I will accept whatever you want to do afterward, even if it costs me my life.”

"anything?"

"Anything!"
