The strongest gym leader starts by beating up Gary.

"I hate poachers the most," Fang Yuan said slowly.

"Me too!" Xiao Mao touched his arm in complete agreement.

"Hurry up and get started, I have other things to do."

The poacher roared at the three people who appeared before him.

"And where did you all come from?!"

Fang Yuan tossed out Shakira's Poké Ball and said calmly.

"Just a dojo owner who happened to be passing by."

Chapter 213 The Gift, Cresselia's Feather Necklace

"I'm just a gym leader who happened to be passing by."

"A dojo master?!"

Upon hearing those three words, the once arrogant poacher's expression changed drastically, because he knew very well that the gym leader's strength was far beyond what a poacher like himself could match.

However, the poacher was not too desperate, after all, in his opinion, the gym leader in front of him was too young.

Even if I'm no match for them, escaping shouldn't be a problem.

Seeing that the poachers were not surrendering and even dared to attack him, Fang Yuan took out Shakira's Poké Ball.

"This Bangila is yours."

Shakira nodded heavily, then burst out from Fang Yuan's waist, its target Bangiras in front of it.

His big eyes were filled with excitement.

Shakira has defeated many Pokémon after evolving, but when it fights its own evolved form, it's still like a virgin getting married.

"Shakira?"

Upon seeing that Fang Yuan had actually sent out a Shakira with a unique coloration, the poacher's expression turned somewhat strange as he said...

"Aren't you underestimating me a bit?!"

"Shakira was completely powerless before it evolved, Tyranitar! Use Hyper Beam to teach your kind a lesson!"

Bangira opened his mouth, and a dark golden beam of destructive death rushed towards Shakira.

The Hyper Beam struck Shakira, creating a huge cloud of smoke.

Amidst the smoke and fumes, the Rockets' trio were choked and coughing violently.

Just then, Fang Yuan used his superpowers to tear a hole in the smoke and walked up to the Team Rocket trio.

"Not bad, I didn't take care of you for nothing. But with your strength, you really need to train harder."

Upon hearing Fang Yuan's voice, the Rockets trio lowered their heads somewhat embarrassed.

Fang Yuan looked at the three of them standing still and said

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go!"

"Why meow?"

Seeing the surprised Team Rocket trio, Fang Yuan slowly explained...

"Because I wasn't the only one who came."

"Besides, how could I, a dignified gym leader, be associated with Team Rocket?"

Upon hearing Fang Yuan's words, the Rockets trio helped each other to their feet.

The trio looked at Fang Yuan with eyes full of gratitude.

Even so, the Rockets' trio didn't stop talking.

"You big rascal, we owe you a life this time, so we'll let you go next time we catch a Pokémon!"

Seeing Musashi's expression, Kojiro and Meowth quickly covered Musashi's mouth.

"Thank you so much, Master Fang, for saving our lives! We'll be leaving now, we'll be leaving now!"

Watching the Team Rocket trio about to leave, Fang Yuan casually tossed them a cheat code and said...

"This is a training manual for Poison-type Pokémon. In the future, if you encounter something like this, don't force it if you're not capable."

"Hmph! You tell me!"

Musashi took the manual that Fang Yuan threw to him and was then carried away by Kojiro and Meow Meow.

After the smoke cleared, Fang Yuan looked at the expressionless Shakira and said...

"Are you okay?"

Shakira swayed slightly, clearly indicating that this level of attack was like a tickle to him.

Bangalore looked at Shakira, who was unharmed despite the smoke, and for the first time, a bad feeling arose in his heart.

Just as Tyranitar was on high alert, waiting for his trainer's command.

Bangiras waited a long time for the instructions, but none came.

Bangilas slowly turned around to look, only to find an empty space.

His trainer actually chose to abandon him!

This sudden turn of events stunned Bangilas.

While Bangilas was still in a daze, he realized that the sandstorm around him seemed to be repelling him!

The sand slowly gathered in front of Bangiras, eventually transforming into a sand behemoth even larger than himself!

The terrifying sand behemoth unleashed a punch at Bangiras without any hesitation!

The immense force forced Bangiras to stagger back several steps.

However, the sand behemoth only lasted for less than a second before turning into a pile of loose sand.

Shakira also fell out of the sand behemoth and crashed heavily to the ground.

"Well done, Shakira, you've begun to use sand in battle."

Fang Yuan was very satisfied with Shakira's rate of progress.

Shakira looked a little embarrassed when she heard Fang Yuan's praise.

Seeing this, Bangiras was truly enraged! He never imagined that he, the mighty Bangiras, the Desert Tyrant, would one day be used as a practice subject!

Moreover, the Pokémon used for practice is its own degenerate form.

This immense humiliation drove Bangiras into a complete rage!

Fang Yuan looked at the rampaging Tyranitar and slowly spoke to Shakira.

"Alright, let's just give him a quick death."

The next second, Bangiras felt a sharp pain all over his body, his vision went black, and he fainted.

Fang Yuan looked at the incapacitated Tyranitar, a strange glint in his eyes.

"Although theoretically other trainers' Pokémon can't be caught, it wouldn't be bad to take Tyranitar to the gym as a breeding stock."

Fang Yuan gave himself a thumbs up for his idea.

After praising Shakira, Fang Yuan looked at the fleeing poachers and said...

"They fled so decisively, abandoning even Bangiras, they must have recognized me, right?"

"It's a pity, though, that you chose the worst path."

Yes, if the poacher stays where he is, then he will have to deal with Fang Yuan.

If he escapes, the one who will take action will be the Sinnoh Champion, Cynthia.

--------

"Damn it! Why am I so unlucky? I just casually pulled off a job and I ran into a double agent, and to make matters worse, I ran into that Matsuzawa Dojo Master who's riding high right now."

"Luckily, I watch TV when I have nothing to do, otherwise I would be in big trouble if a fight really broke out!"

However, the thought of Bangiras, whom he had abandoned, made him feel as if his heart was bleeding.

Just when he thought he was about to escape, a tall, blonde woman in a trench coat stood in front of him.

"Let's capture him without mercy."

Upon seeing the newcomer, the well-traveled poacher was completely stunned.

Then he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"My God, are you kidding me? It's one thing to run into Team Rocket and get double-crossed, and it's another to tolerate that Gym Leader who uses a legendary Pokémon."

"Now they've even brought Cynthia, the champion from Sinnoh, here!?"

"So I'm supposed to be arrested today?!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Stop talking nonsense, hand over the Poké Balls and surrender!"

Looking at Cynthia in front of him, the unfortunate poacher sighed helplessly and raised his hands.

Faced with such a formidable arresting force, the poacher had nothing better to say and simply admitted defeat.

Cynthia looked at Fang Yuan who had rushed over and asked him...

"Where are those Rockets players from just now?"

"Oh, them? They slipped away by accident."

Cynthia didn't press further, but looked at Fang Yuan with a somewhat regretful expression and said...

"I have to go. What you said last night is too important. I need to report it to the Alliance as soon as possible."

"I'm so sorry, I promised you I'd go to the Matsumo Dojo."

Fang Yuan looked at Cynthia, who seemed somewhat embarrassed, and said with a smile.

"You're the champion, so dealing with your issues is the highest priority."

Cynthia nodded slowly.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming somewhat somber, Fang Yuan magically produced a seven-colored necklace and handed it to Cynthia, saying...

"This is a little gift I prepared for you. It's made of Cresselia feathers and will help you avoid nightmares at night."

Consider this my thank-you gift. After all, if you hadn't happened to pass by Celebi Forest, Celebi would have been in big trouble.

"What a beautiful necklace!"

No girl can resist something sparkly, especially a necklace made of Cresselia feathers and crafted by a top artisan.

This would be considered a top-tier custom-made luxury item in any world.

"Isn't this gift a bit too expensive?"

"Good jewelry is meant to be worn by the right person to bring out its uniqueness; it's a waste to wear it on me."

Cynthia carefully took the necklace Fang Yuan handed her, reached out, and put it around her neck.

Looking at the sparkling necklace and Cynthia, Fang Yuan said with great satisfaction.

"It looks so good! A perfect match!"

Hearing Fang Yuan's praise, Cynthia became unusually shy, and the tips of her ears turned a faint red.

At this moment, Cynthia suddenly seemed to remember something, and rummaged through her clothes for a while, but couldn't find anything suitable as a gift. She was sorry.

"I'm sorry, I didn't prepare a small gift for you in advance."

"Don't worry, I already received your gift. After all, I have to take responsibility for it."

Looking at Fang Yuan, who was patting his chest and making a promise, Fang Yuan wanted to get angry, but the words that came out were replaced by a soft "yes".

Cynthia looked at Fang Yuan and took a deep breath.

"I'll come to the dojo to see you after I've dealt with this matter."

"And next time I come, I will definitely bring you a gift you can never imagine!"
