The strongest gym leader starts by beating up Gary.

"Don't worry, I'm the Gym Leader of the League, I'm not that easy to get into trouble with."

"The Gym Leader of the Alliance?"

Naza shook her head and said nothing more.

Just then, both Nazi and Fang Yuan's phones rang at the same time.

Nazi and Fang Yuan exchanged a glance and answered their phones, whereupon they heard the voices of their respective disciples.

"Hey? Master, where did you go?"

"us......"

Just as Naz was stammering and unsure what to say, Fang Yuan spoke loudly.

"I just fainted from heatstroke. It was Gym Leader Sabrina who used teleportation to get me to a cool place nearby to rest."

Naz quickly repeated it.

Fang Yuan then planned to leave the hotel with Nazi, but Nazi firmly refused, her pretty face filled with resistance.

"Someone might have seen what just happened. How can we leave the hotel together now?"

"Makes sense."

"Wait for me for half an hour, until my superpowers are back."

Fang Yuan had no choice but to nod.

. . . . . .

Half an hour later, the indifferent and emotionless Sabrina returned to the Goldenrod Gym.

At this moment, Naza looked coldly at her disciples who were crying and sobbing because she had lost the match and said...

"There are winners and losers in competitions. Anyone who keeps crying should just leave the Saffron Gym."

Meanwhile, Fang Yuan pretended to have just arrived at the scene.

"I'm so tired, and Naz is so stingy, she just left me on the side of the road and went on her own."

Ash, oblivious to everything, said...

"It's good that Master is alright."

Xiao Mao clearly sensed that his master must have hidden a lot of things, but he didn't ask any further questions.

Because at this moment, Xiao Mao had something else he wanted to ask.

"Master, is it true that Tyranitar can evolve again?"

Upon seeing Fang Yuan arrive, a group of reporters, trainers, and onlookers immediately surrounded him.

"Master Fang, do you have any thoughts on Tyranitar being able to evolve again?"

"Master Fang, could you please let us see Tyranitar's evolved form just one more time? Please!"

"Master Fang, does Songzao Martial Arts Academy still accept disciples?"

"Master Fang..."

At this moment, Fang Yuan had become the focus of the entire audience.

Meanwhile, news of Tyranitar's evolution began to spread gradually.

Rockets base.

A middle-aged man sat in a chair, stroking the cat's chin with his other hand, listening with interest to the secretary's report.

"You mean Tyranitar can evolve further? Interesting, very interesting."

In a research lab in the Carlos region, a researcher's eyes widened with excitement.

"That's right! That's right! My research was indeed correct; these fully evolved Pokémon can still evolve again!"

"The Kanto region? It seems I have no choice but to go there again."

Everyone in the world knows that Fang Yuan, the Gym Leader of Matsushiro City, has evolved a Tyranitar.

But on some unknown island.

Fang Yuan's cheap father, the true owner of this Tyranitar, is vacationing and fishing on some unknown island, completely unaware that his Pokémon has attracted the attention of the whole world.

Chapter 58 Fang Yuan's Extensive Network of Connections

Matsumo City, inside the Matsumo Dojo.

"Hehe~ It's a golden badge~"

Ash looked at the golden badge in his hand and immediately grinned foolishly.

Seeing Ash's silly grin, Gary, who was training nearby, felt annoyed and had his Squirtle use a water gun on Ash's neck.

This startled Xiaozhi.

"Alright, stop staring at your golden badge and get back to training."

"What are you doing~"

Ash turned around, clutching his neck, and looked at Gary, unable to help but complain.

"I'm just looking at the badges I just got. Shigeru, do you know that in the entire Kanto region, besides the most mysterious Tokiwa Badge, the Crimson Badge and the Golden Badge are the hardest to obtain!"

"Alright, enough nonsense, come and train. Master isn't here today, don't think you can slack off."

Ash, upon hearing Gary's words, swung his fist...

"How could I possibly slack off?!"

"I'm going to be a Pokémon Master!"

Similar scenarios frequently occur within the dojo.

Ash and Gary were able to obtain the Gym Badges not because they defeated Sabrina, but because Sabrina's psychic abilities were severely depleted after her fierce battle with Fang Yuan that day, making her unable to participate in the battle.

Therefore, the gym battle between Ash and Gary was completed by students from Saffron City.

Ash and Gary might still lose if Sabrina has the right command when facing those Gym Leaders.

Ash and Gary easily defeated the Gym Leader from Saffron City.

This also earned them each another badge.

With this, Gary has 5 badges, while Ash has 3.

"Speaking of which, Master seems to be very busy lately."

While training, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but ask questions.

"Are you stupid? Master's Tyranitar evolved and then regressed in a very short time."

"How could these researchers and the Alliance members not take this research project seriously, given that it could advance the three elf researchers?"

"Oh, I see. Master is really amazing."

Xiao Zhi scratched his head and grinned foolishly.

Xiao Mao sighed helplessly, then thought to himself...

"Alas, possessing a treasure is a crime. Master's Tyranitar suddenly evolving is not necessarily a good thing."

As a second-generation trainee in the league, Shigeru is well aware that the league is not monolithic and has its dark side. Moreover, it's not just the league; Team Rocket and other casual members also set their sights on Shigeru.

. . . . . .

At the Pokémon Center in Matsumo City.

The alliance researchers, led by Professor Oak, looked at Tyranitar standing next to Fang Yuan. One of the researchers, wearing square-rimmed glasses, asked in a somewhat unfriendly tone...

"Master Fang, please cooperate with our inspection. How could Tyranitar suddenly regress after evolving?"

"Could you provide me with some more information?"

“Master Fang, as the master, you should know how important it would be if a quasi-god like Tyranitar could advance further. It would have a revolutionary impact on the entire world!”

"Please cooperate!"

Looking at the aggressive, unknown research institute in front of him, Fang Yuan took a deep breath, then slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and looked at the group of researchers before him.

"It's been three days already, and I've told you everything I know!"

"What more do you want me to do? Send Bangilas to the dissection table?"

"Especially you, wearing glasses and looking all refined. Let me tell you, I'm the Gym Leader of the League, not a suspect!"

"I only agreed to let you come and do this research together because of Professor Oak and Elite Four member Akiko. If anyone says another word to me, get out of here!"

Fang Yuan's sudden outburst startled the group of researchers who were focused on their studies and had never seen the world.

The group of people all took a step back.

Fang Yuan snorted coldly and slowly raised his hand.

On the stainless steel table, there was a faint handprint.

Upon seeing Fang Yuan's palm strike, which transcended the realm of humanity, the researchers were shocked.

Professor Oak finally stepped in to mediate, patting Fang Yuan on the shoulder and saying...

"Master Fang, please don't be angry. Let's end today's inspection here."

Professor Oak waved his hand, and a group of researchers left the room with regretful expressions, leaving only Fang Yuan and Professor Oak behind.

Professor Oak looked at Fang Yuandao

"Master Fang, I'm truly sorry, but the internal workings of the alliance aren't decided by me and a few old folks like Kikuko."

Fang Yuan also expressed his understanding of this.

Professor Oak then left, leaving Fang Yuan alone.

"Damn it, those damn old bastards in the Alliance!"

Alone at the Pokémon Center, Fang Yuan finally couldn't help but curse.

"Who doesn't have their own little secrets? I just got back and they swarmed around me like a pack of mad dogs."

Fang Yuan rubbed his head in frustration. It was clear that being merely a gym leader was not enough in the eyes of the true higher-ups in the alliance.

Fang Yuan rubbed his head in frustration and leaned against the wall.

Just as Fang Yuan was getting increasingly agitated, the door to the Pokémon Center was pushed open, and Fang Yuan knew who it was without even opening his eyes.

Xiaowen stood behind Fang Yuan, revealing a meaningful yet forlorn expression.

"So, Master, have you suddenly realized that the Alliance isn't as virtuous and righteous as you seem?"

Fang Yuan nodded helplessly.

Just then, Ms. Joey from Matsumo City spoke into a phone.

"Don't worry, Master. Qiao Yixue knows about this too, and she said she will try to find a way."

"Thank you. Please tell him for me. It's very kind of you."

Miss Joey from Matsumo City nodded and then left.

Just then, the Team Rocket trio, still wearing their Matsumo Gym uniforms, walked in.

Upon seeing that it was the Rockets trio, Fang Yuan's lips curled into a smile.

"You three still dare to come looking for me?"

Upon hearing Fang Yuan's words, the Rocket Trio, their faces bruised and swollen, said...

"Waaaaah~ Gym Leader, we were wrong! We shouldn't have been so foolish as to attack Pikachu in Saffron City!" Kojiro cried as he spoke.

"Yes, we came here specifically to apologize! Meow~"

Just as Kojiro and Meow Meow were apologizing, Musashi secretly slipped a crumpled piece of paper to Fang Yuan in a corner where no one was paying attention.

"Now that we've apologized, we'll be leaving. Don't worry, we only came to Songzao City to visit you. We'll leave right away and will definitely not break the rules you mentioned."

After saying that, the Rockets trio ran off in a flash.

At this moment, Fang Yuan picked up the note that Musashi had just slipped to him and couldn't help but shake his head.
