Pokémon, but cultural invasion

Seeing that the matter had been exposed, Nazi stopped hiding it and slowly and meticulously recounted the whole process.

Perhaps it was because her worries of the past few days had finally found an outlet, but after venting her feelings, Naz felt much lighter.

"A mysterious spirit at the premiere...summoning League Gym Leaders..."

Upon hearing Naza's desperate plan, Izumi was terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.

She's not the Rockets, but she acts like them.

The Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn alliances joined forces to fight Mewtwo, and the only two that could somewhat contend with it were Lance and Steven.

If anything goes wrong and the alliance of the three regions is wiped out, the world will be in chaos.

Leaving aside the Magma and Ocean teams that were already wreaking havoc in Hoenn, the ambitious Team Rocket must be grinning from ear to ear.

After pondering for a long time, Quanshu asked:

"Why don't you talk to Lance about losing your superpowers? The Kanto Alliance might have a way to help you."

Sabrina scoffed, "I am the strongest esper in Kanto. I have already investigated the so-called esper research institutions. Do you think they can analyze espers?"

"They're only interested in my physical and mental structure."

"And I don't trust anyone, including the league."

Quanshu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Sabrina did a great job keeping secrets; apart from the sudden closure of the Goldenrod Gym, no information was leaked.

However, Sabrina is a troubled girl, so it's understandable that she might close the museum if she's in a bad mood, especially since it happened during the Quartz Convention.

So far, it seems that even the Kanto Alliance hasn't obtained any information about her, which is good.

Because some of the leaders of the Eight Great Halls are not clean, for example, Lt. Surge is most likely a member of Team Rocket.

It's hard to say for sure about A-Ju, but his promotion to one of the Four Heavenly Kings reduces the suspicion.

Blaine's words were ambiguous because Mewtwo was running around outside.

The news that Sabrina has lost her superpowers must not be spread. Her original fighting strength was outstanding in Kanto, and she was definitely a champion.

The disappearance of such a player could very well fuel the Rockets' ambitions.

"So I would like to ask you to hold the premiere again. The mysterious elf is valued by the Alliance, and I am confident that I can persuade the Kanto Alliance to capture it."

Sabrina, having lost all hope after her intelligence was exposed, started discussing capturing Mewtwo again.

Qishu poked his back and whispered, "Let me make this clear beforehand, I won't help you deal with anything that can cripple Natsume. Of course, it's not that I'm afraid, I just don't want to be used as a pawn."

"You still need to tell me?"

Quanshu, feeling guilty, would definitely not support Nazi.

If Mewtwo, who was secretly watching him, knew that he was discussing with someone how to deal with Him, Izumi worried that he wouldn't see the sun rise tomorrow.

"Don't bring this up again, I won't help you."

"why?"

"The mysterious elf that will appear at the premiere is elegant, magnificent, and exceptionally powerful; it is not something you can deal with."

Quanshu clearly rejected her, but didn't want to be too definitive.

After all, with Natsume's recovery taking so long, the Rockets would eventually notice something was wrong.

So she said, "Gym Leader Sabrina, why don't you try a different approach and apologize to that Pokémon?"

"impossible."

Sabrina said firmly, "Although I was wrong to attack without cause, there is absolutely no way I would apologize to an elf."

Her emotions grew increasingly agitated, and a blue light flickered beneath her deep red eyes.

"Electric Frog!"

Suddenly, the strange tree shouted.

"Cuck!"

The electric frog's round body surges with electric light, supporting an electrical field.

"boom--"

As Naz's emotions erupted, invisible waves rippled outwards from her.

Amidst the sickening metallic creaking, the sealed room was expanded by an invisible force.

The two remained unharmed under the protection of the electric frog.

"I..."

Sabrina lost her voice, her flowing purple hair fell down, and her suddenly restored superpowers were aroused by her emotions, causing them to erupt violently.

It erupted and then quickly disappeared, leaving behind a mess.

"I..."

She tried to speak several times, but didn't know what to say.

"Naza, you should learn to control your emotions."

Qi Shu's face was serious. If it weren't for the electric frog's quick reaction, she and Quan Shu would already be a pile of minced meat.

"It was my fault for the out-of-control superpowers, I'm very sorry."

Naza stammered out polite words she never used before, then changed the subject: "But you're wrong about one thing. Even without the Electric Belly Frog, Izumi Tree will be fine."

She turned her head, her eyes, now devoid of blue light, now like fiery rubies, staring intently at Izumi, as if trying to see through his secrets.

"When my superpowers returned, I saw clearly that you had a 'mysterious protection' left by that elf. Can you tell me why?"

"I'm curious, what exactly is your relationship with Him?"

Chapter 88 Golden City Falls into the Hands of Evil

A mysterious guardian?

Quanshu himself was unaware that he had this thing on him.

He recalled Mewtwo's words: "I will build the Elf City, and you will be my witness."

"You must prove your words are true, or I will take your life when you become lax."

The second half of the sentence means: Is it only I who can take your life?

This perfectly matches Mewtwo's domineering personality.

Quanshu was actually a little touched?

However, it's clear that the power left behind by Mewtwo caused Sabrina to misunderstand.

What exactly is your relationship with Him?

Naz's eyes have sharp contours, giving her a cold, resolute, and oppressive aura when she asks questions.

"I don't understand what you're talking about."

Quanshu said sincerely, "I myself was unaware that I had a mysterious guardian on me."

Seeing that his surprise seemed genuine, Naz's wariness lessened slightly.

After losing her superpowers, she conducted a detailed investigation into Izumi.

She didn't actually think that Quanshu and that mysterious elf had much to do with each other. If they did, he wouldn't be getting beaten up every year by changing locations.

According to written records, Izumi's special qualities lie in making a good movie and a few good games, nothing more.

Therefore, the only reasonable explanation that Naz can think of is that the mysterious spirit really likes the movies that Izumi makes, and therefore specially set up a mysterious guardian to prevent him from dying suddenly.

This speculation is far-fetched, but Naz first met Him at the premiere of Izumi no Kiku, so it is most likely the truth.

This is also why she couldn't see Izumi's future during their second meeting at the Goldenrod Gym.

However, there is one point of doubt: when Izumi came to the dojo to apply for filming, the mysterious spirit should not have noticed him yet.

But all his future was completely obscured, and Naz couldn't understand why.

She could only attribute the doubt to the peculiarity of the mysterious spirit.

The more this happened, the more wary Naz became of Him.

"He left behind power, which also means leaving a weakness. Once my power is restored, I will be able to trace back to the source through the mysterious protection on you and sense His location."

"If what you say is true, and you have little connection with that mysterious spirit, then you should have no reason to object to my doing this, right?"

Naz desperately craved all information about Him, knowing that Izumi Tree held a key to His breakthrough. She clung to it like a drowning person desperately grasping at a straw.

Izumi saw in her words, actions, and eyes a resolute determination and a do-or-die courage, which could even be described as madness.

For Sabrina, who was born with superpowers, her superpowers are like her arms, an inseparable part of her.

He knew that Naz was not someone who could be easily fooled, so he said, "If you want to find Him through me, I have no objection."

When she heard him agree, Naz's heart nearly leaped out of her chest; even a sliver of hope was still hope.

Suppressing the greatest emotional turmoil of her life, she said, "In that case, for the next 24 hours, don't leave the Goldenrod Gym. Stay by my side and wait for your psychic powers to return..."

"Wait, I have an opinion!"

Qi Shu, in a moment of impulsiveness, interrupted her without thinking.

The moment they stared at each other, her face flushed slightly. Hearing that Naz was waiting by her side 24 hours a day, a sense of urgency welled up in her heart.

It felt like losing the first move in a card game, being ambushed from behind in a real-time battle, or having your base raided from behind in a tower defense game.

In short, the situation is like a gull being hit by 100,000 volts—very bad.

"Do you have any opinion?"

Naz looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"this......"

Qi Shu hesitated, racking her brains, when a sudden thought flashed through her mind: "First, you can't guarantee Quan Shu's safety."

"Whether it's your superpowers that could go berserk at any moment, or the mysterious elf's countermeasures after knowing you've used the Spring Tree, they can all easily kill him."

"Secondly, if you insist on doing this, I will have to stay and protect the safety of the spring tree, which will also be a waste of my time."

Sabrina had to admit that what she said made sense. Since the goal was to track down the mysterious spirit through the spring tree, it would be pointless to kill him by going berserk with superpowers in the process.

She could also ask other gym leaders to protect Izuki, provided that she reveals she has lost her superpowers.

This is something that Naz cannot accept.

Ultimately, the lack of sufficient incentives prevented them from swaying the two individuals.

Naz took a deep breath. No matter how much information was exchanged, everything still had to come back to negotiation.

She learned from the experience of her previous failed negotiation and decided to throw out her biggest bargaining chip this time:

"As long as you don't violate the League's laws, you can use the authority of the Gym Leader of Saffron City—the most prosperous city in Kanto and even Johto region."

"You can command any Psychic-type Pokémon in the Goldenrod Gym."

"The only price you'll pay is a little bit of your free time, how about that?"

To rule over Golden City would surely be tempting to anyone.

This was the biggest bargaining chip that Naz could offer, but she didn't feel like she was at a disadvantage.

For Sabrina, the position of gym leader is like a rootless drifting object; if she doesn't regain her psychic powers, it will eventually crumble under the wind and rain.

Izumi sat up slightly and pondered, "The power in Goldenrod City is indeed tempting... but you can't grasp the Pokémon's movements with just one source tracing, can you?"

"Your superpowers are unstable, what if they never come? I can't spend a lot of time sitting with you at the Goldenrod Gym."
