圆陆鲨想当训练家

"Squeak!"

As the dormitory door clicked softly, Jia Deliya excitedly grabbed her suitcase and ran towards Lu Sha like a little bird returning to its nest.

However, upon seeing Lu Sha's expression, her cheerful steps faltered.

At this moment, Lu Sha was intently tapping on his phone screen, his eyes revealing a cunning slyness of a successful scheme, a subtle aura that hinted at brewing evil.

Cattleya immediately slowed down her movements.

Compared to sharing the joy of the moment, what Lu Sha needs to do right now is obviously more important.

"Click! (You're back? Wait a minute, I'm dealing with the sale of Pokémon.)"

Noticing the commotion, Lu Sha quickly looked up, nodded rapidly at Gadria, and continued tapping on the screen.

"Are you in trouble?"

Cattleya asked softly, her eyes filled with doubt.

In her naive view, trading is nothing more than a three-step process of "selling, quoting, and completing the transaction".

But judging from Lu Sha's serious and prepared demeanor, something was clearly unusual.

"Click! (Let me see if I can get something else.)"

After typing away for a while, Lu Sha pressed the send button.

The previous deal was supposedly about selling Gym Leader Pokémon, but it was actually about selling inside information.

To put it bluntly, Team Rocket is a large and powerful organization, and they don't need a few Gym Leader level Pokémon at all.

Given the League's crackdown on Pokémon trading, the only way to sell Pokémon is through some underhanded methods.

......

Koki Dojo, Kanto region.

In the spacious office, the personal cell phone on the desk suddenly emitted the buzzing sound of a bee flapping its wings—a special alert tone indicating a message from a contact.

Sakaki put down the documents in his hand, his brows furrowing slightly.

The investigation into Gym Leader Liu of Kaji is hitting a roadblock; the old man is indeed often absent from the gym and his whereabouts are unpredictable.

However, there is no evidence to link Uncle Liu and Xiao Yin together.

Sakaki picked up his phone, and his originally cold and stern face turned into a slightly angry laugh the moment he saw the message.

[Gym Leader Giovanni, what's your price for a package deal of 9 Gym Leader-level Pokémon and 1 near-Elite Four-level Pokémon?]

They think he's a junk collector?

If the Rockets need combat power, he can give an order and countless men will come to capture them immediately. Why waste money on this?

However, the next second, the note that followed made Sakaki's eyes narrow.

By the way, Little Silver has a very close friend whom he treats like a sister.

Ah!

Sakaki smiled.

This is the first time someone has dared to directly use emotional appeals against him.

What's even more interesting is that the other party was convinced that he, as the leader of the Rockets, would care about so-called family ties.

"A real bird!"

"exist!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Secretary Masahiro pushed open the door and entered, bowing respectfully.

"Transfer another 200 million to that Sinnoh account from last time," Giovanni casually ordered. "Those useless guys in the organization, haven't they been complaining lately about not wanting to put in the effort to train their own Pokémon? I can't be bothered to listen to their nonsense. Buy nine Gym Leader level Pokémon and one potential Elite Four member, let them divide them up themselves later."

"yes!"

Zhenniao had no further questions and immediately began the operation.

Sakagi didn't care whether Rikusa had actually shipped the goods.

He slightly curled the corners of his mouth and typed a reply on the screen with his slender fingers.

Inside the dormitory, Lu Sha looked at the new messages on the screen and sighed softly.

As expected of Boss Sakaki!

It happened much earlier than he had anticipated.

[Those mediocre guys in Sinnoh don't understand what nurturing is; they just pile on rare resources. If you went down that path, your potential wouldn't be any higher than that useless guy who lost today. The resources he spent on Roserade, if given to Agatha Christie, could have built six champion-level teams.]

A seemingly ambiguous statement, appearing to be nonsensical, yet it says everything.

Simply put, Giovanni didn't care about the source of the information and even tacitly approved of this blackmail.

However, at the same time, the other party also subtly pointed out:

I know who you are, I know you are Cattleya, I know your experience buying Kikuno, and I know you are short of money right now.

but...

"Click! (Easy for you to say, then teach me how to raise six using the same resources!)"

Lu Sha muttered something, complaining, but she wasn't really afraid.

Anyway, Gadria has already learned Teleportation, and the two of them are still far away in Sinnoh.

Even if Sakaki has connections everywhere, how could he possibly cross oceans to arrest someone?

This email is essentially both a warning and an endorsement.

Cooperation is clearly a better solution than a fight to the death.

For Sakaki, this amount of money was just a drop in the ocean.

The fact that the other party was able to provide this information also shows that Lu Sha made the right bet.

"Two hundred million actually arrived in my account!"

Suddenly, Gadriya exclaimed in surprise, her emerald eyes looking at Lu Sha in disbelief.

The market value of those ten Pokémon is at most 100 million. What did Lu Sha do to double the price?

"Boss Sakaki is a really honest man."

Lu Sha sighed and his fingers flew across the keyboard.

The other party was so straightforward; logically, he should also be an honest person.

Unfortunately, he is not human.

[Sakaki-sensei, I'm still a student. Could you please give me a free lesson on how to train Ground-type Pokémon?]

The other party replied instantly the moment the message was sent.

Lu Sha's expression froze the moment he saw the content.

Gan!

You're already a champion-level player, what do you need me to take advantage of?

Sakaki sent a product link, which looked as rudimentary as the interface of some organization's dark web.

[The Secret Technique of the Earth] Price: 1 million

Selling a single document for 1 million yuan, are you just sitting here waiting to recoup your investment?

Lu Sha raised her head, looking at her young mistress for help, carefully choosing her words:

"Click! (If I were to say I had a summary of my experience as a Ground-type champion...)"

"Buy it! Even if it costs a billion, we'll buy it!"

Before he could finish speaking, Gadriya interrupted him decisively, "So far, there has never been a champion who has reached the top solely through attribute training. This experience is priceless."

"Click! (Then he shouldn't be, he has special abilities!)" Lu Sha shook his head.

"But for us, it's enough to save us from taking several years of detours."

Although Cattleya paused for a moment, she still expressed her desire to buy it.

Actually, she also had her own thoughts on the matter.

If she were to allocate the money herself, she would prefer to spend it on buying top-quality resources for Lu Sha.

The resources were tangible and visible, but she couldn't discern whether the contents of the manuals were good or bad.

According to her understanding, the college charges high prices for rare resources.

Although top-quality resources are bought up immediately once they appear.

However, the actual selling price of top-quality soft sand should be around 5 million.

1 million Alliance Coins can already buy one-fifth of it.

But she could sense that Lu Sha wanted to buy it.

Fulfilling Lu Sha's wishes is always the highest priority.

"Click! (Then I'll buy it!)"

Lu Sha gritted her teeth and said resolutely:

"Click! (Transfer 1 million back to that account!)"

He believed that Sakaki was an honest person and wouldn't let him suffer.

And barring any unforeseen circumstances, this should be the last transaction in the near future.

He didn't have much information about Xiao Yin; if he wanted to make a deal later, he'd have to come up with something real.

"good!"

Caldelia nodded slightly, without even blinking, and returned the 1 million.

Although it took her two days of hard work to earn the money, she also encountered several dangers during that time.

But she trusted Lu Sha, it was that simple.

Tokiwa Gym.

When Sakaki heard Masato report that 1 million yen had been transferred back, he paused in his work and then revealed a meaningful smile.

"She's a promising talent, just like her performance in the Academy Auditorium today. It seems Sinnoh will soon produce a true champion."

With a touch of appreciation, he packed up the handwritten notes and sent them over.

A future championship-caliber trainer who doesn't dislike the Rockets, he wouldn't mind making a good connection.
