Pokémon: Trainers Returning from Monster Hunter

Chapter 79 The Birth of Mewtwo (Seeking First Subscription)

Kanto region.

Joban City, Joban Gym, deep underground.

The League is still unaware that beneath its officially certified gyms lies a large, completely enclosed research institute.

Inside the research institute's office.

Sakaki turned off his phone and tossed it to the short-haired, bespectacled woman waiting beside him. He then lay down, his legs, clad in suit pants, propped up on the desk.

"Hey, how's Dream 2 doing?"

Shin-tori stroked the still-warm phone and bowed to report.

"The situation has stabilized now, and Dr. Fuji is conducting final monitoring. If all goes well, Dream 2 will officially enter its growth phase!"

The bird's tone was undeniably excited.

They've sacrificed so much for this artificial Pokémon.

From the extraction of genes from the fossilized eyelashes to the present day when the cloned embryos are about to be completely stabilized.

We've gone through so many accidents and stumbled along the way to get to this point.

It definitely won't fail!

"Um."

Sakaki responded calmly.

"I'll have Fuji come to me later."

"yes!"

Masahiko gripped her phone and slowly backed away.

After a while.

Dr. Fuji, sporting a goatee and an extremely stylish haircut, appeared in the office.

"Chief, things are stable."

Those five short words left Sakaki silent for a long time.

Get up.

A cold face, hidden in the darkness, slowly emerged, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

"Come on, take me to see it."

laboratory.

Upon entering, you'll see a large cylindrical culture tank standing in the center.

The culture tank was not only filled with bubbling green nutrient solution, but also covered with tiny monitoring lines.

At the end of the monitoring line, a strange Pokémon, about the size of a human baby and entirely pink, was curled up.

If anyone has ever seen Mew, they will find that this Pokémon is currently about 80-90% similar to Mew.

As he approached, Sakaki admired the scene before him.

Dr. Fuji reported in a low voice from the side.

"It has passed the embryonic stage. Current monitoring results show that its vital signs are stable and it has begun to absorb nutrients on its own, but—"

"only?"

Sakaki's voice suddenly turned icy cold.

The researchers around them, dressed in white padded shirts, felt their hearts race involuntarily.

Dr. Fuji, however, seemed to be used to this scene, pausing only briefly before continuing.

"However, the self-awareness that was originally planned to appear in the later stages of growth has now appeared ahead of schedule."

""

"Oh? What's the reason?"

"Not found yet."

Another silence followed.

Even Dr. Fuji was starting to get nervous.

Their leader may appear to the outside world as a kind and friendly gym leader, but to the inside world, he is an absolutely ruthless and evil organization boss.

"That's interesting."

Sakaki suddenly chuckled softly.

"It's no wonder I just called it even more powerful than Dream."

With Sakaki's laughter, the oppressive atmosphere seemed to lessen a bit, but no one dared to speak.

Only the sounds of the air pump suction and the ticking of the monitoring instruments could be heard.

His smile faded, and Sakaki's tone carried a hint of anticipation.

"In that case, from today onwards, he is no longer Mewtwo 2, but—Mewtwo!"

The deep, magnetic sound caused the culture medium in the culture tank to ripple slightly.

Even Mewtwo's tightly closed eyes seemed to tremble slightly.

At this moment, two voices echoed continuously in its hazy consciousness.

Mewtwo - Mewtwo

"Mew—Mew—"

"Who is Mewtwo?"

What does "缪" mean?

"Who—who am I?"

At a certain moment.

Suddenly, the image of a pink kitten appeared in its mind.

Mewtwo, who knew nothing at all, was able to immediately recognize the other person's name.

"dream--?"

Why do you seem so familiar to me?

"Is it my mother—or my father—?"

"Misconception?"

The pink kitten tilted its head and suddenly covered its mouth and laughed.

"Mimi~"

Before Mewtwo could process the meaning of those words, the pink kitten suddenly disappeared, as if everything that had just happened was a hallucination created by its hazy consciousness.

Along with the disappearance of the pink kitten, the familiar sensations within Mewtwo's consciousness also vanished.

For a moment, it felt an emotion it had never experienced before.

"Is this—loneliness?"

"Why do I feel lonely?"

"Was I—abandoned—?"

"But—who—am I?"

The thoughts in my mind were like turbulent currents, constantly surging and churning, making my thinking extremely unpredictable and active.

Beep beep beep!!

The monitoring instruments in the laboratory suddenly sounded an alarm.

The researchers in white coats scattered instantly, frantically operating the equipment.

"What happened?"

Before Sakaki could speak, Dr. Fuji preemptively asked a question.

A researcher points to the instrument screen.

"Dream—Superdream's consciousness suddenly swelled to more than double its size, and it's still increasing."

Upon hearing this...

Instead of panicking, Sakaki showed an expression of admiration.

Is this Mewtwo's growth potential?

"Chief, should we administer a sedative?" Dr. Fuji asked.

"No need. Let it grow as it is, within a controllable range."

"Yes."

however.

Just as the two were watching the data jumping wildly on the screen, a researcher in charge of cybersecurity at the underground research institute suddenly ran over in a panic.

"Chief—Chief, Doctor, there's a vulnerability in the Polygon's firewall. It seems like something just came in through the network and then went out again."

"What?!"

Dr. Fuji was horrified.

"Could it be that the Alliance has discovered it?"

"impossible."

Sakaki denied it in a deep voice.

As the official owner of the alliance, he already has access to information within the alliance.

Given the alliance's current cyberattack methods, it is absolutely impossible for them to breach their multilateral firewall.

Hearing Sakaki's confident tone, Dr. Fuji also calmed down.

"Can you find any clues?"

"Hmm—Polygons—they've been repeating a strange byte."

"What bytes?"

"Winged Patia, Table City, Patia League."

After finishing his overtime work late into the night, the alliance president closed his laptop and rubbed his temples.

"If I'd known it would be this tiring, I wouldn't have held an anniversary celebration every year—that Aoki guy, he must have taken leave on purpose at this crucial moment!"

With a sigh, she picked up her teacup and walked to the window, looking at the still brightly lit table.

"Oreki-kun shouldn't forget me, the chairman of the academy, now that he's become a level two researcher. And—"

Her gaze drifted through the window to the towering cliffs to the north.

"I wonder how Dr. Orin's research is going—the Padia Crater seems to be getting increasingly turbulent lately."

While I was thinking, the Rotom phone on the table made a "biubiu" sound.

"A message came from Qishu, Loto~"

Ye Ci turned around.

The Rotom holographic projection on the phone displayed the image of the strange tree and the text she had posted.

[President, President, you've lived up to expectations! Mommy's Qishu has successfully won over the handsome Oreki-senpai! Hehehe~]

But he said that besides airfare, food and accommodation also had to be covered. / How pitiful!

[But I'll agree for you though /evil grin]

"These two children."

Ye Ci shook his head and chuckled, replying with "No problem".

"Oriki, Oriki, don't you understand that what's free is often the most expensive?!"

Hoenn, Kanaz Academy.

"Phew—done!"

Oreki let out a long sigh, revealing a triumphant smile.

"All-inclusive – meals, accommodation, and round-trip airfare – it's practically a publicly funded vacation!"

"Chiru!"

This lady is going to challenge the Padilla Gym!

"Meow—"

What's so great about Padiya? It doesn't seem as good as Hoenn Sunfire.

The two little ones spoke up one after the other.

Oreki nodded to Kirlia, agreeing to its request, and then gave Tirion a flick on the head.

"You silly cat, Parthia is your hometown!"

"Meow (o⊙)?"

Tire Cat was stunned.
