Pokémon: Legendary Pokémon Simulator, Starting with Arceus

"If things go according to plan, then it will have all the basic functions of a Psychic-type Pokémon."

"Okay, Dr. Ishida Satoshi may need to make some preparations. The machines here are ready for the first batch of research. Boss Sakaki will contact us personally soon."

After saying that, Zhenniao hung up the phone.

Is it finally happening? It looks like Little Silver has already been captured, or maybe it's been several days already, but Sakaki is only anxious because he hasn't found him yet.

Ring ring~

The phone rang again; it was Sakaki contacting him.

"Good morning, Mr. Sakaki. Masato already mentioned it. By the way, when and where exactly?"

"The sooner the better, but we can't lose contact here. I can give you a few days to handle it."

Fortunately, they haven't lost their minds, and it seems there's still room for maneuver.

"You don't need to worry about how to get there. I want to ask about what you said before about kidnapping the child. Can we talk about it?" "Of course, no problem. What does Mr. Sakaki want to know?"

"It's best to tell everything." A calm voice came out, but the things he wanted to know were not so stable.

"Let me think about where to begin... It was about 5 or 6 days ago around noon. I met a little girl, about 5 years old, during a picnic."

"I went to check it out on a whim, and only Professor Oak's Dragonite managed to get there in time. Once I arrived, the other party didn't linger and left. Well, that's about it."

In his office, Sakagi closed his eyes to rest, while his phone relayed Xiong Meng's message.

Within a week, a 5-year-old child...it must be related!

"By the way, Mr. Sakaki asked this, could it be...?"

Xiong Meng's curious voice came through again. Sakamoto opened his eyes, looked at his phone, and waited expressionlessly for what was to come.

Do you know something, or is it related to you?

"Could it be that someone on our Rockets team has a missing child?"

"Pretty much. One of my subordinates' children suddenly went missing a couple of days ago, and they still haven't found him."

"What! I knew it, Boss Sakaki asking this definitely means he has something on his mind!"

"By the way, Professor Oak and I have also been researching this area these past few days, and we've made some discoveries. I'll write them down and take them back in a few days; hopefully, they'll be of some use."

"No need to be so late, just tell me directly," Sakaki said immediately after Xiong Meng finished speaking.

Sakaki realized he was being a bit too hasty, and after calming himself down, he explained, "You know our Rockets team has great benefits and treatment. As the team leader, I'm extremely incompetent for this to happen."

"Just say what you have to say. The real bird is right here. If we can get clues sooner, we can act sooner. Every minute that passes increases the danger."

Sakagi's words were reasonable and well-founded, but Xiong Meng just wanted to say, don't you know you're usually a man of few words?

It's even stranger to come up with so many reasons.

But he won't say these things, because that's exactly what he wants.

Let me organize my thoughts a bit: "The Pokémon we encountered that day was Ho-Oh, and Professor Oak said that seeing it would bring good luck, so we had a discussion about this."

"In the end, we both believed that the other would not have done such a thing. There is a corresponding legend in Johto that even when their place of residence was burned down, they did not do anything bad, and even revived the dead Pokémon."

"Professor Oak is still looking for the answer, but I have a thought: could it be that someone forced Ho-Oh? Although I know that's a pipe dream."

"After all, that's Ho-Oh! How could it possibly have such a powerful trainer? Hahaha, Mr. Giovanni, don't you think so?"

There was no response from the other side for a long time.

In the office, Sakaki had only one thought: damn it, someone's causing him trouble!

Find the opponent and wipe them out!

A mythical beast? Very strong, but not absolute; he has absolute confidence in himself.

Sudden, abnormal behavior is definitely suspicious; it's being manipulated!

Sakaki is now 80% convinced, otherwise a living person couldn't just disappear all of a sudden, especially with the traces of a strong wind around the area.

"Mr. Sakaki?" Xiong Meng's puzzled voice came from behind.

"Dr. Satoshi Ishida, do you have any other information about Ho-Oh? If someone is really controlling it, where do you think it's most likely to be located?"

"It's just a hypothesis, just to find out."

"They've taken the bait," Xiong Meng thought to himself, nodding inwardly.

Next, we'll guide them slowly. Giovanni will definitely send someone over to check, and then Ho-Oh will pull another stunt to increase credibility.

Hehe, then we'll have something to watch.

But we can't rush things now. We need to establish his persona as someone who doesn't know anything, and we also need to gather more intelligence to strengthen his presence.

Once they meet Uncle Liu again, all of this will turn into trust.

"Well, I think the charred tower in Johto is a possibility. Someone saw a rainbow there before, so I guess it might be."

"And Mr. Sakaki, the power of a divine beast is immense, and the possibility of it being controlled by someone else is almost zero," Xiong Meng said seriously.

If it's not zero, then it's possible, so we can go and take a look!

"Also, if this is really possible, then Mr. Sakaki must be careful; someone with that kind of strength is definitely not simple."

Xiong Meng's last words seemed to be spoken only out of respect for Sakaki; he only said one sentence and then stopped.

He immediately changed the subject: "By the way, Mr. Sakaki, I'd like to discuss something with you regarding our later research..."

Could I come and stay for a few days, provided everything goes smoothly?

"I have a good relationship with Professor Oak now, it would be a shame not to use such a good tool."

"Sure, as long as it doesn't affect the project." Sakaki hung up the phone after saying that.

It's just that I want to stay in Pallet Town for a while, it's a small matter.

The important thing now is to go to the capital and see if there are any clues.

Having found the direction, Giovanni desperately needed to know the truth, only then could he feel at ease. He wanted to mobilize the entire Team Rocket to sweep over there, but that would be the stupidest and most dangerous approach.

But as Dr. Ishida just said, if it's true, their strength shouldn't be underestimated. They might even be an organization. We can't alert them; we need to get important information immediately.

What if we changed locations after realizing something was wrong while we were there, or what if this puts Xiao Yin in danger?

We must not rush; we must find the right method.

Sakaki gently stroked the cat, closed his eyes to think and then processed the information, wondering what he could possibly know.

It can be reasonably surrounded and thus be regarded as reasonable.

Buying information from official sources is definitely out of the question. It's perfectly normal for such organizations to have people inside them. If we can't buy information from them, we can't expect people to give it to us willingly.

Haha, how could such a thing happen?

...Tearing, it seems there really is a way.

Sakaki suddenly remembered the marketing campaign he had recently spearheaded. He had been proud of the number of registered deliverymen a while back. Although not everything had been revealed, he still had some basic information.

And what could be freer or have more normal people than delivery?

After confirming the plan again, Sakaki was absolutely certain it would work, so he immediately called Masato over.

"The Kanto region has been doing well recently. We will invest the remaining funds to accelerate its development and then allocate more funds to develop the Johto region."

Sakaki started strong, leaving the real bird completely bewildered.

Investing everything would be a huge burden. Although Kanto is stable and profitable now, and costs are being recovered quickly, it's not very profitable right now.

This kind of thing goes against the purpose of doing business.

"But we also need a lot of working capital to support other industries; if we invest everything..."

"Then sell those industries, invest all the resources into them, and ensure market dominance as quickly as possible to prevent other families from taking action."

"By the way, invest all the money you make back into it. I only have one requirement: to take over Kanto and Johto in a stable and fast manner."

"On a large scale, we should focus on food, supermarkets, and delivery. Build all the factories for me, and find cheap and remote locations."

Sakaki had already decided to first surround Kanto and Johto. If they weren't there, he would use his base to continuously search outwards. If he found them...

Hehe, once we occupy both regions, where can the enemy run? We'll have plenty of options then.

Saving money? What's the point of saving if you don't have a son!

"Ah... but... this..." Masato could barely speak.

Boss Sakaki's order was so explosive that she couldn't react in time.

She knew this approach would definitely succeed, and quickly, and she had plenty of confidence in the Rockets' size.

But it's too crazy; the audacity is just too strong.

All I can say is, he truly lives up to his reputation as Boss Sakaki!

"Received! I'll go organize the materials right away and submit them within three days!"

Three days? That's a bit slow.

"Zhenniao, you've been my secretary for a while now. If the funds are less than ten million, you don't need to show them to me. Just sell them directly."

"At the same time, you should organize a team yourself to ensure the effectiveness of supervision."

I have complete confidence in Sakaki Manori, so I'm giving him direct authority to manage and supervise him. Now, I'm doing whatever it takes to get things done as quickly as possible.

Masahiro was stunned for a moment and was deeply moved. He immediately decided not to sleep for the next two days, because he couldn't let down Boss Sakaki's trust!

With a determined look, Masato walked out of the office. Sakaki opened a drawer, where a cold photograph of the little boy sat quietly.

I will find you, and you will be alright. If anything happens... that person will come to be with you.

On the other side in Zhenxin Town, after hanging up the phone, Xiong Meng immediately opened the software and began selecting dishes.

Today's lunch was very plentiful, and Naz and regular customer Xiao Lan enjoyed their meal.

After finishing her meal, Xiao Lan leaned back in her chair, a happy look on her face, and said, "Uncle's cooking is really good. Speaking of which, today's meal was so delicious, it felt like my last meal."

"What you're saying is true, it's the same every day you eat badly. But something's not right about what you said later. It's true that you weren't leaving at the end."

"Bang!" Naz, who was helping to wash the dishes, lost her grip and the plate fell to the ground.

Xiao Lan jumped down excitedly and asked, "Is what you said true, Uncle? Are you really leaving?!"

"Are your hands okay? It's alright that the plate broke, as long as you're alright."

"Clean up the broken pieces of the plate," Xiong Meng said normally.

"Of course, I'm a researcher, okay? And from out of town, so isn't it normal for me to go out to work?"

"But Professor Oak does his research at home, he doesn't need to go out at all."

Little Blue retorted, "Old Man Big Wood is so comfortable every day."

"Because that's Professor Oak. The truth is, there are only a few professors like that in each region, and most of them have to work part-time, okay?"

.

"Besides, I'm originally from out of town; I'm just here to rest. Going back would be the normal thing to do."

"But...but what about Sister Naz...?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? I've already spoken to the boss. As long as everything is alright over there, I can come back and rest."

Whew, Xiao Lan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that, like her parents, they hadn't left and weren't going to stay.

Nazi, who was standing next to her, hadn't said a word. She wanted to ask if she could come along, but Xiao Lan was still there, and besides, she wouldn't be coming back.

It just takes time to wait.

：.

"By the way, how often does the uncle come back?"

"I'm not sure. The first time should take a bit longer. I estimate one to three months. I can only say as long as possible." Xiao Lan grumbled unhappily upon hearing this, then pushed the door open and left.

"Where are you going? Don't wander off."

"Go check on Hyakuya with Nanami-neechan. Don't worry about Nido following behind."

After washing the dishes, Xiong Meng suddenly said, "I'll give you a phone number tomorrow, and you can chat through that account."

"If you have any questions or issues, just send them to me. I'll reply when I see them, but the timing is not fixed and will depend on the situation."

Naz's lips curled up slightly as she turned and walked upstairs.

It seems like a job that also involves chatting, which is pretty good...

Since you're leaving soon, should I give you a small gift? I'll ask about your departure time tonight and then decide.

Xiong Meng took out his notebook in the living room. "I'll give you about three days, not too long, not too short. I just need to plan during this time, like taking Nazi out to play or something."

"Brother! I heard you're leaving!"

Professor Oak pushed open the door and rushed in, asking anxiously.

"Well, I've rested enough for a while, it's time to get back to work."

Professor Oak knew that resting for such a long time was already quite good, and it was a bit of a pity, but he believed that his younger brother would become a top professor sooner or later, based on the time they had spent together.

Knowing how to use your hands more and living well with Pokémon means that as long as there are no problems later on, it's only a matter of time before things improve.

"Sigh, let's have a barbecue party at the lab tonight. I'll let everyone know and give you a ride." "Of course, Professor Oak, I'll trouble you. I'll prepare the barbecue ingredients."

Professor Oak really wanted to say that as the person who was sent away, there was no need to make a fuss, but since the other party was the most capable here, he thought about it and decided not to say it.

Well, we don't know when we'll be able to eat it again, so let's not stop it this time.

Next time, I definitely won't need the other person to do it!

After setting the barbecue time, Hiroto Oki started making phone calls to invite people, and Xiong Meng also began preparations.

When they went to Professor Oak's place to prepare the food, Nanami, Sabrina, Blue, Green, and Red volunteered to help.

"I will continue to train during my absence, so please don't worry, Master!"

Qinglu looked at Xiaochi in surprise, not reacting at first, but then she thought about the sudden increase in the other party's strength and the many strange postures he had been in recently.

Well, no wonder you've been acting strange lately. You, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, even sneaked off to meet someone.

"Who should I call 'master'? I'm the only student of my teacher, and I've been studying Pokémon lately!"

"If you insist on calling me that, that's fine too, just call me Senior Sister!" Xiao Lan said righteously, trying to take advantage of the situation.

Xiao Chi thought about Xiao Lan's recent behavior; she was staying at her master's house all the time, so calling her that shouldn't be a problem.

So it obediently called out.

Xiong Meng didn't stop him; he took out his phone and started recording a video, which Lao Lehe enjoyed watching.

As evening approached, the parents of each child arrived one after another, including Naz's parents.

Everyone has great respect for Mr. Satoshi Ishida; he is capable, easy to talk to, skilled, and good at taking care of children.

It has a great reputation in Pallet Town.
