The strongest gym leader starts by beating up Gary.

Seeing Da You's eyes roll back and he keep retching, Fang Yuan squatted down and helped Zheng Xiong up.

Streams of green energy flowed from Fang Yuan's arm to Zheng Xiong's injured area.

"Are you okay?"

Masao touched his stomach and said in surprise.

"Brother Fang... my stomach suddenly doesn't hurt anymore!"

Tokiwa's power can heal spirits, and of course it can heal humans as well.

"Don't worry, I will give you justice for what happened today."

Hearing Fang Yuan's words, Zhengxiong shook his head and looked at Da You, who had been kicked unconscious, and whispered...

"Brother Fang, this injury is nothing. Don't let it interfere with your business."

Seeing how Zhengxiong was so considerate of him, Fang Yuan sighed helplessly. In an instant, he couldn't help but think of his two somewhat unreliable apprentices. If only they could be like him.

Fang Yuan didn't say much, he simply patted Zhengxiong on the shoulder and said...

"Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Fang Yuan walked up to Da You once again.

At this moment, Da You just woke up from his coma. Looking at Fang Yuan's face, he finally remembered something.

"I know you. I've investigated your background. To put it bluntly, you're just a nobody trainer with no connections!"

"You dare hit me today? I'm telling you, I'm going to kill you! Kill you!"

Chapter 72 The Formidable Reputation of the Cheap Daddy, and the Confused Mewtwo

Looking at Da You, who was almost blinded by rage, Fang Yuan could only sneer.

Looking at his friends standing there dumbfounded beside him, Da You, slightly out of breath, weakly said...

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and help me up."

Upon hearing Da You's words, his cronies quickly helped him up from the ground.

Da You clutched his stomach with one hand and pointed at Fang Yuandao with the other.

"You must be Fang Yuan?"

"I've already investigated your background. To put it bluntly, you're just an ordinary trainer, but how dare you hit me?"

"Let me tell you, my dad is the vice principal of the League Pokémon Academy! My grandpa was a powerhouse who almost became one of the Elite Four!"

"If you hand over your Lark now and kowtow to me three times, I might spare your life."

Da You looked at Fang Yuan and sneered inwardly. He had already decided that once Fang Yuan handed over Yukira, he would send Fang Yuan to prison.

Then torture Fang Yuan to death little by little!

Fang Yuan's kick was an excruciating pain that Da You had never experienced in his life. Of course, he could not let Fang Yuan go, so his claim of letting Fang Yuan go was just an excuse.

Of course, Da You wasn't the only one with similar thoughts.

"Then do you know who I am?" Fang Yuan said quietly.

"You? Aren't you just a lucky trainer?"

Looking at Fang Yuan's face and the name Fang Yuan, a terrifying thought suddenly popped into Da You's mind.

"Fang Yuan? Fang Yuan!"

At this moment, Fang Yuan's appearance matched the memories in Da You's mind.

It was like a thunderbolt that struck Da You, leaving him charred and raw.

He raised his hand, his voice trembling, and said...

"You...you are Fang Yuan, the master of Songzao Dojo! You...you are the son of that evil star!?"

"A jinx? Looks like my cheap old man left a pretty good impression on you."

Daiyu clearly remembered that just a few nights ago, he had gone for a stroll in Quartz Plateau.

A man, accompanied by a Dragonite, stormed up the Indigo Plateau.

Even the Elite Four level trainers, whom Daiyu considered to be high and mighty, were no match for that man's Dragonite.

At that time, Grandpa Daiyu's good friend, the retired Elite Four member, fought against that man and the Dragonite he brought.

With the help of six Pokémon, the former Elite Four member barely managed to hold off the man and his Dragonite.

The two seemed to be arguing about something, and in the end, the man actually took out two more Poké Balls.

A floating bubble and a sprite that Daiyu had never seen before appeared.

After those two elves appeared, the entire battle immediately turned one-sided.

In just over ten minutes, the retired Four Heavenly Kings, who had once seemed unapproachable to Da You, fell from mid-air to the ground.

It crashed and turned into a cloud of blood mist.

The retired Four Heavenly Kings died just like that, and Da You felt a chill run through his body.

At that moment, the man, who looked like a god of death, stood on the back of the Dragonite and shouted...

"My name is Fang Pingfeng! Former headmaster of Songzao Dojo! This old bastard is disrespectful to his elders, actually trying to steal the Pokémon I entrusted to my son! He shall be executed today!"

"If anyone wants revenge, doesn't like me, or wants to keep stealing my Pokémon, feel free to come find me!"

"If anyone dares to touch my son again, or tries any dirty tricks, next time I'll be going after your whole family!"

After saying that, the man named Fang Pingfeng stood on the Dragonite and floated away.

This scene was deeply imprinted in Da You's mind.

Of course, what Daiyou didn't know was that Fang Pingfeng, who stood on Dragonite like a god of death, had his invincible aura collapse instantly after leaving the Indigo Plateau.

Fang Pingfeng was dumbfounded by what had just happened.

"Damn it! Wasn't that guy one of the retired Four Heavenly Kings? His strength has declined so much! He just fell to his death like that."

Although Fang Pingfeng wanted to get revenge for Fang Yuan, it didn't mean he really wanted to take down a retired member of the Four Heavenly Kings.

But there was nothing he could do; the deed was done, and Fang Pingfeng dared not stay in the Kanto region any longer, so he immediately fled to other areas.

"Hurry up, Dragonite! I can sense other champion-level veterans chasing after us."

"Alas, I am so unlucky. Being too strong is also a mistake."

. . . . . . . .

Time returns to the present.

"You...you're Fang Yuan?!"

Da You looked at Fang Yuan, and when he thought of the Four Heavenly Kings who had fallen and turned into a bloody mist that night, Da You was almost scared to death.

How dare I steal from this ancestor!

In an instant, Da You's legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground, frantically kowtowing to Fang Yuan.

"Master Fang, no, Father, no, I mean Grandpa!"

"Grandpa, I know I was wrong. I didn't know it was you! Please, please forgive me and let it go."

"If I had known it was you, I would never have dared to lay a finger on you, my elf!"

Fang Yuan looked at Da You, still remaining silent.

Then Daiyu suddenly lunged at Masao's feet.

"Zhengxiong! We're buddies, right? Please, beg this grandpa to spare my life!"

Masao looked at Dayou, who was crying bitterly, and a look of pity flashed across his face. Then he looked at Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan thought to himself as he witnessed this scene.

"Sigh~ This child is still a bit too young."

But looking at the huge crowd around him, Fang Yuan did not choose to make a move at this moment.

Instead, he addressed Da Youdao

"From this moment forward, as the Gym Leader, I hereby formally strip you of your status as a Trainer and hand over all your Pokémon!"

Upon hearing Fang Yuan's words, Da You was not surprised but rather delighted.

"Thank you! Thank you for being so forgiving!"

"I will definitely be a good person from now on, a really good person!"

After saying that, Daiyou threw his trainer's belt, identification, and all his Pokémon on the ground, and left the scene in a disheveled state with the help of a group of his underlings.

..........

The conflict between Fang Yuan and Da You has attracted a lot of attention.

And nothing that happens on the island, especially what happens to Fang Yuan, can escape Mewtwo's observation.

"Humans are truly disgusting creatures; their greed can never be satisfied."

It's clear that Mewtwo has absolutely no positive thoughts about humans.

Meanwhile, Mewtwo lost interest in watching any longer, wanting to fulfill its desire to become a trainer and to "create" some partners for itself.

At this moment, Mewtwo is in a secret laboratory abandoned by Team Rocket beneath Elite Four.

Here, massive and sophisticated machines are constantly in operation.

Among these instruments, the most eye-catching are the huge culture tanks standing in the very center of the laboratory.

These jars contain all sorts of different kinds of Pokémon, from Gyarados to Rattata, covering almost all the Pokémon from the Kanto region.

Mewtwo is now trying to create a companion for him, just like the scientist who created him.

The DNA of these Pokémon comes from the Pokémon of the contestants on the island.

Looking at these cloned Pokémon growing in petri dishes, for some reason, Mewtwo felt not the joy of finding companions, but rather endless loneliness and anger!

Chapter 73 The Contradictory Mewtwo: Eliminating the Roots

As a created Pokémon, Mewtwo couldn't find any of its kind in the vast Pokémon world, and for a long time, it couldn't find any meaning in living.

This left Mewtwo feeling incredibly lonely and internally conflicted.

Just like how Superman dreams of cloning elves to find his companions.

But looking at these cloned Pokémon, Mewtwo still felt a void in his heart.

Because although he is an elf, he possesses human genes, and these human genes endow Mewtwo with complex emotions similar to those of humans.

Complex and distorted emotions + chaotic self-identity + boundless loneliness.

These elements together constitute the incredibly tangled and twisted Mewtwo we know today.

He was like an alien wandering alone in the elven world, unable to integrate into the elves or associate with humans.

Mewtwo is filled with incomprehension about his own existence; he even hates that he was born into this world.

Mewtwo was stunned for a while, then shook its head, dismissing the thoughts in its mind, when suddenly it remembered something.

"By the way, I haven't obtained that guy's elf DNA yet."

------------

Meanwhile, Da You, who suffered a great loss at Fang Yuan's hands, had to leave Tenno Island ahead of schedule because he lost all his Pokémon and his status as a trainer.

At the port where Tianwang Island is about to depart.

Da You's face was as black as charcoal.

This time, not only did he fail to obtain the priceless Shiny Larvitar, but Fang Yuan also confiscated his own Pokémon.

Even their status as trainers was stripped away.

This made Da You, who had never suffered a loss in his life, so angry that he almost vomited blood.
