At that moment, a strange sound came on the radio again.

"Ahem, good morning everyone around the world. I'm Liang, the captain of Team Rocket. Yes, it's me again."

"To celebrate Boss Sakaki's return to lead the Rockets, we are issuing this announcement to the world for the third time!"

"Now let me share some golden words of wisdom from our boss. Please listen carefully!"

The next second, the broadcast voice changed to Sakaki's: "You should live a different life. Come on, join us."

"Turning everything that doesn't go your way into something you do—that's the Rockets' motto!"

...

In a secluded corner of Johto, a young man with blue hair listened to Sakaki's seductive voice on the radio, then covered his face again with his headscarf and left.

On a street in Kanto, a woman riding a bicycle and brandishing an iron chain heard the voice on the radio and smiled.

With a flick of her long red hair, she said, "Everyone, I'm going to chase my dreams now. Goodbye."

In the streets of Hollywood, a Meowth was walking down the street looking lost when its ears suddenly twitched as it heard a voice on the radio.

I glanced back at a shop window on the street behind me, where a beautifully dressed female cat was standing.

The cat suddenly opened its mouth, and the three creatures in different places spoke in unison.

"I want to join Team Rocket (meow)!"

Chapter 432 Fear of Energy Shortage & Food Reserves

When Natsuno heard Sakaki's voice on the radio, he immediately wanted to ride Shark and charge over.

But he quickly came to his senses: How could someone as cunning as Sakaki possibly reveal his location to him?

He made a phone call, and within ten minutes, Manjin called back, saying that the incident had been resolved and no trace of Sakaki had been found.

Natsuno shrugged and finished his last breakfast.

Although he hadn't slept all night and had fought a fierce battle, he was full of energy and wished he could stick to Zhu Lan's side.

"Zhulan-chan, can Grandma handle things at the ruins?"

The blonde beauty gently shook her head: "A month has passed, and although we still can't crack the code, I have a feeling that these people are still alive."

"We've consulted all sorts of materials but still haven't found any clues. We still lack a lot of understanding about these ancient times."

Natsuno then used his superpower to poke Xiaolan's belly: "Hey, you're a veteran, you must know about things from ancient times, tell me about them!"

Little Blue was furious. Little Blue wanted to hit someone. Little Blue was bribed by the evil researcher's new flavor energy cube and collapsed into a lump again.

"We'll only know the specifics after seeing it in person. There are too many things to recall without evidence."

Natsuno frowned: "What about last time? You went to the Aluf ruins too, right? You couldn't even tell what kind of authority it was, really..."

At this moment, Gadriya saw Natsuno talking to thin air for no reason, and even turning his head to talk to someone who was not around, and her eyes widened.

After carefully observing that there was no one or any Pokémon on the other side of Natsuno, she began to stammer.

"You...you bastard Natsuno, who...who are you talking to? Or are you delirious from a fever?"

But Xiaoya was already holding Zhulan's hand tightly, her eyes filled with panic.

It couldn't be some kind of ghost in broad daylight, could it?

Xia Ye then remembered that he hadn't shown Little Blue to Jia Deliya yet, and yanked the big green jelly off his shoulder.

"Xiao Lan, come out and let Xiao Ya see you. Anyway, you're not exactly a secret."

Xia Yexu pulled something out from his shoulder, put it on the table with a "pia" sound, and even gave it a name.

Cattleya was trembling uncontrollably, her heart pounding with panic: "No...no, isn't it a Ghost Pokémon? I don't want to see it!!! Huh?"

Amidst the battle cry of the superpowered young lady, Xiao Lan was lured by Xia Ye with five new flavors of energy cubes, revealing her true form.

At this moment, Xiao Lan changed from lying down to standing up, looking very dignified.

'I am the Guardian of Order, one of the core members of Zygarde.'

Xia Ye rolled her eyes: "You have the nerve to say that! Every time I need your help, either I can't contact the cells or I can't contact the cells. If the order relied on you to protect it, it would have exploded long ago."

Little Blue's face instantly turned bright red: "That's because you humans are cunning; you actually developed strange shielding measures!"

'If you really want my help, then quickly find out how to counter Giovanni's methods and figure them out! I promise I'll beat him to a pulp!'

Having been by Natsuno's side for several months, Xiao Lan has picked up some of Natsuno's speaking habits. This evil research man is deeply sinful.

Xiaoya was stunned for a moment, but then her curiosity was piqued. The big green jelly actually looked quite fun, and she even wanted to try it out.

Xiao Lan jumped back onto Xia Ye's shoulder and disappeared again.

'You mean the Spear Pillar ruins in Sinnoh also experienced the same situation as Aluf?'

Natsuno nodded: "Didn't I tell you? Anyway, the situations on both sides are pretty much the same."

"How about this, the Johto Tournament doesn't start for several days yet, and Kikyo City is right above Hinoki Town, which isn't far from Alof. We can go there again."

Zhu Lan had no objection to this, and Xiao Ya was even less concerned about it.

After eating and drinking her fill, Xiao Yuan suddenly floated in front of Xia Ye and began gesturing wildly.

'Can...eat...a...lot...round...many!'

Natsuno's head was starting to ache. He couldn't understand why Madoka, a Pokémon with psychic abilities, had been learning telepathy for so long and was still speaking haltingly.

Fortunately, they've spent a lot of time together, so they can roughly understand what the little guy means from his actions and expressions.

Xia Ye took out the dozen or so boxes of energy cubes he had obtained from the Alliance and handed them to Xiao Yuan.

"Why do you need so much? I remember you only need one or two boxes to feel full, and you just ate a lot of food."

Xiaoyuan had completely exhausted her energy during the battle and almost instantly lost weight, becoming skin and bones. Now, after a big meal, her body has returned to its round and plump state.

Xiaoyuan gestured repeatedly, and Xia Ye nodded, opening the box to reveal the energy cube inside.

Suddenly, Madoka's superpowers appeared, absorbing all the energy cubes and sticking them to Madoka's outer membrane.

The outer membrane then indents inward, encasing the energy cubes within its structure before releasing them from within.

The difference this time was that Xiaoyuan did not directly attract these energy cubes into her mouth to eat them. Instead, she used her mind to control these energy cubes wrapped in membranes to sink downwards.

Then the little guy urged Natsuno to open the remaining boxes, which she did. Afterwards, she and her friends watched Madoka, wondering what tricks she was going to pull.

Soon, the dozen or so boxes of energy cubes were encased in a membrane structure by the small circle and floated around in the cell fluid inside.

The upgraded energy cube comes in a box of 20, and at this point, the cell fluid in Xiaoyuan's body has stored nearly 400 energy cubes.

The little guy was very happy watching the energy cubes floating around in the cell fluid.

Natsuno was puzzled. Suddenly, Madoka's expression turned pitiful, and she started gesturing wildly.

'Energy, lack, round, hungry, uncomfortable, store, until, use!'

Xia Ye understood and couldn't help but rub the little guy's head: "You're really something, you even thought of that."

It turned out that completely draining energy was too uncomfortable, so Xiaoyuan thought of storing some energy cubes in the cell fluid in advance so that they could be replenished at any time in critical moments.

The little guy was a little scared when he thought about how skin and bones he would look after his energy was depleted, and he wanted to store more energy.

Xia Ye had no objection to the little guy being happy to be a smurf mouse, and brought out more energy cubes.

The two girls, Zhu Lan and Xiao Yuan, were amused and couldn't help but give Xiao Yuan a thumbs up, praising her ingenious idea.

"However, this move is not allowed in official league matches."

"In fact, before a match, staff will even specifically check if anyone is secretly holding energy cubes or other prohibited items in their mouth."

"If it's a tree fruit to carry, you can put it in your mouth beforehand, but the quantity must meet the requirements. If you exceed the limit, you will be warned, and in serious cases, you will be banned from the competition."

Xiao Cai and the others, prompted by Xiao Yuan's suggestion, began searching extensively all over their bodies for places to hide energy cubes.

Unfortunately, they don't have the special physical structure of Madoka, so they can only look at the cube with envy.

"Eat your fill, drink your fill, and then sleep soundly!"

Chapter 433 The Conflict Begins

According to unscientific research, after eating a full meal, more blood flows to the digestive organs to aid digestion, which slightly reduces the efficiency of oxygen supply to the brain, leading to drowsiness.

Having already played a battle all night, everyone was yawning constantly.

Fortunately, the farm also offers accommodation. Led by the owner, the group arrived at a quiet courtyard to rest.

Then the conflict suddenly began.

"Little Bamboo Orchid wants to share a room with me!"

"No, no, Lan-chan should be in the same room as me."

Xiaoya Natsuno held onto the blonde beauty's arms tightly, one on each side, leaving Zhulan with no choice but to show a helpless expression.

As for their companions, they had already found their own rooms to sleep in, too lazy to bother with them. They were just cute Pokémon.

Xiaoya changed her tactics, keeping her left arm around Zhulan's arm, while her right hand almost poked Xia Ye's nose.

"Pervert! He wants to share a room with Xiaozhulan while they're still dating, how wicked!"

Xia Ye rolled her eyes and brushed Xiao Ya's hand away: "So what? Are you jealous of me? We're a couple, you know."

"I might as well tell you, I already slept in the same bed with Takeran-chan before... um..."

Just as Natsuno was feeling smug, Takeran covered her mouth, and the blonde beauty's face flushed red instantly.

In a second, Gadriya deduced the word that Natsuno hadn't finished saying, and she was struck dumb, her mouth practically falling to the ground.

"You, you guys... I, my God!"

After being glared at by Zhu Lan, Xia Ye raised his hands in surrender, indicating that he had behaved himself.

After Zhu Lan let go, Xia Ye rolled her eyes: "What are you thinking? We're very innocent."

"It's just a bed, please empty your brain of all that lewd nonsense and stop adding to the already limited space in your brain."

"To tell you in the most straightforward and unambiguous way, it's just a very innocent way of sleeping together, just like when we were kids."

“When we were little, the three of us used to sleep in one bed. I never saw you say it was inappropriate. When I wanted to sleep in my own bed, you would hold me back and not let me leave.”
