I beg you female trainers to give me money even if you lose!

“He told me to get lost,” Yang Xiying replied succinctly, and the girls all chuckled, which was a normal reaction.

“It seems my younger brother hasn’t been taken care of in vain; he even knows how to worry about his older sister,” Nanami said with a smile.

In fact, Qinglu had already sent her a message, which is why Nanami didn't need to ask Yang Xiying to take responsibility.

She felt that Yang Xiying would have a hard time getting over this, and announcing it now would only add to the pressure, so she would wait until she was single for a few years before making the announcement.

If Yang Xiying is still interested in an old woman like me by then... then my family will have no choice but to agree.

PS: Update! I had a dream that I finished today's update, but when I woke up I found it was already 1 a.m. (sad)

P.S.: I even dreamt yesterday that Xyz Saga got a new alternate art, but no new cards were released, so frustrating...

NO.320+321 Say goodbye to the girls and win the badges!

(Due to a miscalculation of the timeline, the matchmaking event will end a week before mid-December, so the timeline in the first two chapters has been revised. Sorry.)

"I'm going to Changqing City today, you two."

"Okay, Mr. Yang, please be careful on your journey."

"...Please be careful on the road. If you need anything, just come to Asagi City to find me."

Because of the prior arrangement, Yang Xiying also set off for Changqing City a week after the marriage recruitment event.

Challenge the Evergreen Gym to obtain the sixth Gym Badge, and the girls won't try to stop you, since Giovanni only runs the Gym at that time.

So it's fine for Yang Xiying to finish her challenge at Evergreen Dojo and then come to accompany Lijia. However, Lijia won't try to keep Yang Xiying like she did with Natsume and Xiaoxia.

After all, things are different now than before. This is Xiaoxia's first time experiencing something like that, and she doesn't yet have an accurate understanding of Yang Xiying's characteristics.

She was somewhat resentful that her body had been taken away so easily, and she also wanted to find an opportunity to vent the pressure she had been accumulating.

Feeling that kind of thing was as exhilarating as fighting, he simply hid Yang Xiying at home for a while, using her as a massage device, and naturally didn't care about her thoughts.

Moreover, it was Yang Xiying who took the initiative to make Xiaoxia develop extra feelings for him, to the point that she could no longer live without him.

After all, Yang Xiying also needed to take this opportunity to train her Pokémon. Having too few level 50 Pokémon made her vulnerable to being beaten to her knees by women.

Therefore, he was willing to sell his body to get a free opportunity to cultivate in Hualan City, so leaving in early October was the result of Yang Xiying's initiative to suggest to Xiaoxia.

Because you've trained enough, you won't encounter the situation where Xiaoxia lets loose when you challenge the Goldenrod Gym.

However, when they arrived in Shion Town, Golden City, the presence of Yoko made it seem as if he was actively pursuing Sabrina.

Therefore, it is only natural that it takes some time to cultivate feelings, and Naz took this opportunity to imagine herself like Xia.

She decided to stay in Goldenrod City for a month and take the opportunity to strengthen her personal abilities so that she wouldn't encounter the same thing that happened in Lavender Town again.

Because the reason was quite reasonable, Yang Xiying would go along with the girl, not to mention that his personal strength would also increase as a result.

Newly adopted Pokémon also need training, and after hearing about Rika's marriage proposal, he realized that Sabrina's main purpose was to train Yang Xiying.

Getting involved with a rich girl like Rika is not an easy thing to get out of; you need to have all kinds of strength.

Now he has done it, and he doesn't have to stay with Lijia for a month anymore, since his father is eager for him to make a name for himself.

While Lijia also wanted to spend more time alone with Yang Xiying like Xiaoxia Nazi, Yang Xiying would encounter very few women in the future.

There are no more female gym leaders like her, Misty, and Sabrina in the Kanto region, so Yang Xiying won't be delayed for too long.

Moreover, people always unleash their potential when the deadline is approaching, so Yang Xiying will be very efficient in collecting gym badges.

This would allow her to have plenty of time to spend with him before the Quartz Conference, and Lijia had also made arrangements with the other girls.

Of course, it's also fine to have other girls join in during this period.

In short, Yang Xiying stayed in Yuhong City for two weeks before the curfew was lifted, one of which was at her own request to stay.

After all, she needed to cultivate a relationship with Ami, and Ami's leave time was longer than Xiaoxia Naz's. Even after Nanami left, she was still with Lijia.

As for Ami, well, she's quite easy to please. Just feeding her will increase your favorability towards her.

— And feeding the girls is Yang Xiying’s specialty!

So after a week, Ami's feelings for Yang Xiying had reached the point of being close friends, and there was no problem with dating her.

Therefore, Yang Xiying was seen off by Lijia and Ami when he went to Changqing City, and he arrived in Changqing City in just one morning.

Upon arrival, he was received by Giovanni's men, who provided him with a private car, and soon they arrived at the Evergreen Dojo.

Upon entering the venue, after being greeted by a bronze-skinned, white-haired man, Yang Xiying skipped the Level 1 trial to avoid any unforeseen complications.

—Finally, they arrived at Sakaki's territory.

Yang Xiying also noticed that the place opposite was still set up as an office, and even though he was the owner of the museum, he still didn't forget to work.

"...It seems Mr. Yang is eager to fight me."

Although he was sitting in a chair with his back to the door reading a newspaper, he could still sense that someone had entered his territory.

Even without the two bodyguards in black suits and sunglasses at the door reminding her, Yang Xiying was able to enter the office without any hindrance because Sakaki spoke first.

"Yes, but seeing how busy Mr. Sakaki is, I can wait a while," Yang Xiying replied politely.

"It's not that bad. I'm just following the news through the newspaper, and I can even hear your opinions on the news."

Sakaki turned around at that moment.

"After all, this is a matter for the Mitsui family. Yesterday, the eldest son of the Mitsui family was being investigated by the Alliance for murder and burying a body."

"Oh?" Yang Xiying raised an eyebrow, while Sakaki revealed a meaningful smile. "Mr. Yang, there's no need to pretend to be surprised in front of me."

"After all, our Rockets team has known for a long time that you have a grudge against the eldest son of the Mitsui family, and you said something similar at the marriage proposal event a while ago."

"Ando Yuka, 22 years old, female, became Mitsui Masahiko's secret lover on [date missing]..."

"Although your purpose was just to prove that Mitsui is no different from you, later Watari felt that his lover was a missing person."

"After Mitsui Masahiko left the matchmaking event, Watari also left, and then we had this news today."

“With these criminal records, even if Mitsui Masahiko’s family has absolute power, they can’t protect him,” after all, murder and other crimes are an ironclad rule that is not allowed on the surface.

No matter how high your status or how powerful your background, you must abide by the rule that you can only do things secretly and not let others find out, because once someone sets a precedent, it will be a chaotic world.

After all, if you've already done it, it's reasonable for me to do it too. Everyone will end up fighting, and the benefits that can be gained in the process are very small.

Therefore, the eldest son of the Mitsui family, who disrupted this order and whose background was exposed, could not be protected no matter what.

"Moreover, the Mitsui family is no longer as all-powerful as before, after all, their wealth has been constantly being revealed to the public recently."

"It's only a matter of time before the Mitsui family is destroyed, but the Mitsui family is still a major financial group and family in the Kanto region."

“Revealing one’s family’s wealth feels like making a basic mistake, so there must be someone pulling the strings behind the scenes.”

"—And this is exactly what you, Yang Xiying, expected."

“…You have good reason to suspect me,” Yang Xiying said, pursing her lips. The person opposite her did seem to be talking about him.

"So, Mr. Sakaki, is your desire to find out the inside story in order to stand up for the Mitsui family?" But he wouldn't admit it directly.

Although the opposing side didn't have a hundred or eight hundred axe-wielders lurking around, so discussing this wasn't considered entrapment, Yang Xiying still preferred to be cautious.

"Heh, how could that be? I just don't want to provoke a master who can slowly destroy one of the major families of Kanto without having to make a big fuss."

—Sakaki smiled. Yang Xiying was such a master.

"...I think your Rockets team can do that too."

Yang Xiying responded that the Mitsui family's decline to this point was solely due to the many things they shouldn't have done, and they only have themselves to blame.

There was no need to lift a finger; he simply used his superpowers to hypnotize and suggest that the person confessed to the dirty work they had done.

Let the public scrutinize the judges' actions, ultimately forcing the authorities to personally clean up the mess.

And no one can guarantee that, because Yang Xiying had severed the family's friendly ties with other forces before this.

As long as they feel they can no longer seek profits as before, they will cut ties on their own, or even take advantage of their misfortune...

If the Mitsui family doesn't die, who will?

"Haha, I really don't intend to be modest at a time like this, but since there are vested interests involved, it's not convenient for our organization to take action."

"And isn't comparing them to the same organization just proof that they're experts?" Sakaki's tone was meaningful.

If the Mitsui family's actions were truly orchestrated by Yang Xiying alone, then he certainly possesses formidable power, and I still feel somewhat resentful.

After all, he's almost fifty and is just the head of an underground organization in the Kanto region, the CEO of a multinational corporation, and a gym leader...

These things can easily be rendered meaningless by absolute power, so in Sakaki's view, only absolute strength can resolve everything.

—For this reason, he needs the power of God!

"Alright, let's leave the small talk here. Since Mr. Yang wants to challenge the dojo, I, as the dojo master, should treat him well."

"How about starting the Level 3 Gym Trial directly? A Level 50 five-on-five Master Duel. You're qualified to jump to that level now."

“After all, I heard that all the gyms you started at in Cerulean City were level 3 trials,” Giovanni said, standing up and taking out his trainer card.

"no problem."

Yang Xiying took out his trainer card and nodded in response. Now he also wanted to see how the villainous BOSS of the Kanto region would perform at full power.

—Have you surpassed your opponent in Pokémon battles?

"Then let's begin," Giovanni said with a sinister smile, before throwing out a Trainer Card that overlapped with the one Yang Xiying had thrown!

"Alright! Pokémon battle! Ready Go—!!!"

After both sides selected their Pokémon, a black stick figure outside the arena raised its hands high, announcing the start of the match.

"Let you lead the charge."

"Soul-stealing Eyes! I'm counting on you for the first round!"

Both sides sent out their first Pokémon at this moment. Yang Xiying sent out Sableye, just like she did when fighting Nanami!

Sakaki sent out a giant hippopotamus with a skin color like yellow sand and a black back like tire leather.

The moment it appeared, the vents behind it released a large amount of yellow sand, and a sandstorm instantly swept across the field!

This is the Sandstorm ability, and Giovanni is a Pokémon...

"Hippopotamus?" Yang Xiying raised an eyebrow at the sight of this thing, because what the other side had sent was no ordinary creature.

—A god-tier trait, capable of using a variety of annoying moves.

"Teacher Pigeon is indeed very knowledgeable."

Sakaki smiled, because after learning about Scorpion King through Pigeon Teacher, his thoughts became somewhat scattered, and he eventually obtained this hippo beast.

The Sandstorm ability is very strategic, as it gives his Ground-type Gym a Pokémon that can automatically activate Sandstorm weather.

While Sandstorm doesn't directly boost the power of moves like Ground Rock, it does provide a decent boost to Ground Rock Pokémon.

"Hippopotamus! Invisibility Rock!"

"Sableye! Use Knock Off after Mega Evolution!"

The commands from both sides sounded at the same time, but the MEGA evolution speed was very fast, almost 0.05 seconds!

Now let's take another look at Sableye's Mega Evolution. It resonates with the Mega Stone and transforms into a handheld gem form!

Then, he used the gem to block the large number of rock blades thrown by the hippopotamus, and then teleported to the vicinity of the hippopotamus!

At that moment, Soul-Hook Eyes threw the ruby ​​high into the air, slapping the hippopotamus and knocking down the sandy rocks that were increasing the duration of the sandstorm.

The hippopotamus beast had almost 20% health left! Then the sandstorm effect occurred, and the Soul Hook lost 1/16 of its health.

"Yang Jun's Soul-Stealing Eyes are indeed extraordinary," Sakaki's expression darkened slightly as he watched this scene, and the Hippo Beast's Invisible Rock actually bounced back.

—This is clearly a characteristic of the Magic Mirror.

"Thank you for the compliment! Soul-Hooking Eye! Will-o'-the-Wisp!" Yang Xiying issued another command, to weaken the hippopotamus's output now!

"Come back," Sakaki recalled his hippopotamus at that moment, as it had no advantage against the Soul Reaper.

—So Giovanni is sending out Nidoking now!

Boom——

Although Nidoking was burned, its physical attack power was halved, and it also lost 1/8 of its stealth and Rockblood attacks, Giovanni didn't seem to care much.

"Nidoking! Earth Power!" Because his Nidoking was configured to forcibly suppress the special attack of the Life Orb!
