Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master

"How did you manage to evade my senses?" Ash was genuinely curious.

"Hahaha, let me tell you, kid, the waveguide screens we're wearing are the result of our research and development based on your data."

They didn't hide anything at all.

"Meow, we're no longer afraid of you finding us!"

After saying that, the trio laughed triumphantly again.

"To think you could even develop something like this, I don't know whether to praise you geniuses or call you stupid."

Ash's aura continued to rise, and he gave Team Rocket a cruel smile.

"If you're not going to stay a stinking rat in the sewers, how dare you show up in front of me and do bad things?"

"What audacity!"

The Rockets' smiles vanished instantly.

Realizing what was happening, Musashi hurriedly rummaged through his storage bag.

"Yeah, Kojiro, do we have any weapons to deal with this brat?"

"Hmm...it seems we don't have any. We've already used up all the explosives we had while searching for Mini Dragons..."

He casually tossed a few pebbles and accurately damaged the shielding device on the Rockets' heads.

"How could this be!"

"Meow, we're doomed!"

With another wave of his hand, Ash's Pokémon were all ready.

"Freeze Ray!"

Team Rocket was immediately struck by several Freeze Rays and turned into a giant ice sculpture.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! Your ability has been upgraded from Ruthless Level 3 to Ruthless Level 4 (the number of Pokémon you can carry increases by 2)]

Now, Little Smart carries eight Pokémon with him. Team Rocket must be his lucky charm, because good things always happen when they come.

He easily jumped to Team Rocket's location, pried open the cage holding Dratini with his bare hands, and then fed the injured Pokémon a healing potion.

Soon, Dragonair and Dratini recovered and gently rubbed against Ash's palm to express their gratitude.

Uncle Caesar on the ground was also untied and released by Xia.

"That scar, is it from that Minidragon back then?"

Caesar suddenly became excited upon seeing the scar on the top of Hark's head.

"Is this miniature dragon your child?!"

"Hack!"

The Hakron flew over to respond to him, and with its cry, two more tiny dwarf dragons timidly poked their heads out from a pile of rubble.

The uncle, surrounded by Mini Dragons, wept bitterly.

"It's so good that you've all been alright."

After a rare reunion with his friends, Ash and his friends went inside Dragon Valley.

The place was devastated by the Rockets' bombs, and the old man was heartbroken.

"This area may no longer be suitable for Pokémon to live in."

The Hakkarosaurus and Dratini were also disappointed to see their home reduced to this state.

At this moment, Xiao Zhi had an idea.

“I have a place where the Hakronos can live well and safely.”

"There?"

Upon hearing this, both the uncle and Hakron looked at him expectantly.

"Dr. Oki's Research Institute".

"Is it Professor Oak from Pallet Town? If it really is him, then it's perfect."

Ash quickly led everyone to the center of the park to contact Professor Oak.

As soon as the call connected, Ash was startled by the man-eating face of Oak.

"Ash, I...you...ramble on and on!"

Professor Oak scolded Ash for five minutes straight before finally stopping.

"You know it took me half a month to wash away the slime and the stench from the lab!"

"Oh, Professor, the situation was urgent. I had no choice but to resort to this measure for the sake of the Pokémon in the center."

Since he had tricked Professor Oak, Ash could only wipe his sweat and let the other man vent his anger.

"Let's not talk about that. I'm calling you today because I have something important to tell you."

I quickly explained the whole story to Professor Oak.

“Sure, no problem. I have plenty of space in my backyard for Hakron and the others.”

"Thank you so much, Champion Yukinari-sama!"

Upon hearing Professor Oak's agreement, Uncle Caesar excitedly pushed past Ash to express his gratitude to the professor.

"No need to be so polite, I'm no longer a champion."

"Time flies, but in my memory, the championship has always been yours."

"Professor, you were a champion?!" Ash really didn't know that.

"That was a long time ago, Ash. Don't forget to send Dragonair and the others over in a Poké Ball. I have to go now."

There are four in total: one big and three small.

There's a teleporter in the center of the park. Ash first caught Dragonair and Dratini in Poké Balls and then used the machine to teleport to the research lab.

But then one of the Dratini refused to go into the Poké Ball and went straight to Ash.

He stubbornly voiced his opinion.

"Mmm~ Mmm~!"

Xiao Zhi sensed its emotions through the waveguide.

"Hmm, don't you want to experience that moment again when your mother was taken away and you were powerless to do anything about it?"

Ash bent down and looked the Dratini in the eye.

"Great eyes! I can make you stronger, but the training will be very rigorous. Can you accept that?"

"Mi~!"

It turned around and said goodbye to its mother and brothers and sisters.

"Okay, we're partners from now on!"

Ash took out his Poké Ball and caught Dratini.

[Ding! New side quest triggered: Fat Man's Ambition: Evolve Dratini into Dragonair]

[Rewards: Alliance Coins +800; Speed ​​+2; Free Attribute Points +2; Skill: Dragon Tail]

"I caught a Dratini!"

We still need to demonstrate the standard movements.

"Xiao Zhi, have we forgotten something?" Xiao Xia suddenly asked.

"No... I haven't forgotten anything... Team Rocket!"

Those three idiots are still frozen in the ruins of Dragon Valley.

Chapter 50: Capturing Team Rocket

After dealing with the Hakuryu incident, Ash went to Team Rocket's large ice block.

"You guys are frozen for so long and you're still perfectly fine, you're really tough!"

In Ash's aura perception, the life force of the three of them was so vigorous that it was about to burst forth.

Open the secret manual of the Waveguide Hero and find a special move inside.

[Spatial Transfer Seal: Can be activated by thought; the person stamped will be teleported to within half a meter of the user, regardless of their location!]

[Bound by souls, use with caution! Cannot be blocked or unblocked!]

Legend has it that in ancient times, before Poké Balls existed, heroes used this method to summon Pokémon.

A normal human soul can only bind a maximum of 6 souls.

The thought of being tied to these three for life made Xiaozhi's heart ache terribly.

But there's no way around it, the trio of idiots are just too dangerous.

This time they've brought out a waveguide shield; I can't even imagine what they'll dare to bring out in the future!

We can only give them some insurance for now. After the Space Transfer Seal is used, the three of them will be equivalent to Ash's summoned beasts.

Break the ice in an area behind the Rockets.

Then, he placed his palms on their backs and used his wave power to inscribe intricate runes deep into each person's soul.

Each one must be pressed for a full 20 seconds.

The energy of the seal quickly formed blue patterns that spread from their backs to their entire bodies, bursting out with a bright light before disappearing immediately.

"That should work, right?"

Ash practiced this move for a long time; it was originally meant for Misty and the others.

If he fails, then he'll have no choice but to take drastic measures against the Rockets.

With a snap of his fingers to activate the seal, Ash felt a portion of his Aura power instantly drained away.

However, with his current aura power, that amount is negligible for Ash.

The Team Rocket trio, who were originally inside the ice block, suddenly disappeared from the large ice block with a flash and appeared on the grass half a meter in front of Ash.

"Ugh, my head hurts so much."

Kojiro felt like he was catching a cold; his whole body was ice-cold.

"Where are we, meow?"

Musashi and Meow Meow quickly regained their senses.

"You're awake? Let's play a game."

"Ah, you little rascal!"

The three of them reacted as if they had seen a ghost when they saw Xiaozhi, and immediately hugged each other in a panic.

"I'll give you 10 chances. I'll close my eyes and count down three minutes. If you can escape within the time limit, I'll let you go."

"But if you get caught, I'll give you a good beating. If you still can't escape after ten tries, you'll be my subordinates for life!"

After giving them this wicked suggestion, Ash started counting down without waiting for their agreement.

"What, do it for a lifetime?"

"Idiot!" Musashi quickly punched Kojiro and Meowth.

"That brat gave us a once-in-a-lifetime chance to escape, and you're still wasting your time? Show him how good Team Rocket is at escaping!"

The trio, realizing what was happening, immediately began to run away.

Xiao Zhi gave them extra time, and then snapped his fingers.

A flash of light.

"How could this be?!"

"We've already run outside the park!"

Their faces still held the happy expressions of having escaped, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, they were back in front of Ash.
