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

She wouldn't dare to fight with a woman recklessly, but avoiding the topic now would be disrespectful to her, so she could only flatter her.

[In that case, after we've dealt with Team Rocket on the island, let's have a private Pokémon battle.]

[Consider this Mr. Yang's preview of Pokémon battles at the Elite Four level.]

[Oh...oh,] Yang Xiying was momentarily stunned. You don't have to be so eager to start a Pokémon battle with me!

—However, the opponents are the Four Heavenly Kings, and I'm probably still a bit weaker than them…

In short, let's reconsider our actions for tomorrow. Yang Xiying then changed the subject.

Otherwise, she'd be met with a teasing smile from Rita Kanako, who was already listening to their conversation through her superpowers...

【no problem. 】

……

"If you just hand me over, you'll release the captured Pokémon and even withdraw them from the Kanto region. It's a pretty good deal."

"After all, I'm not that familiar with Miss Lorelei, but you underestimate the Elite Four. How could such a threat possibly work?"

While they were still on guard against Kona, the other side contacted them without hesitation, mentioning that they had been threatened.

She wanted to avoid being distracted in tomorrow's battle, so she refused and wouldn't be threatened with such a thing.

Because that would be tantamount to escaping and running away, which can only be done temporarily, not forever, so it's better to rise up and fight back.

"That really made me feel frustrated. I could clearly tell that you two weren't very close."

"But at this moment, we can cooperate to resist. Ah, in that case, we can only decide everything through battle."

Akroma waved, and the Team Rocket members around him were all eager to fight, but Yang Xiying clapped her hands at that moment.

"Don't you dare sleep!"

Snapped--! ! !

The loud clapping sound spread outwards, clearing the eyes of the many restless Team Rocket members.

"What...what's going on?"

"How did we get here?!"

They were completely unaware of their surroundings, seemingly having recovered from a hypnotic state!

"How is this going?!"

Akroma's worldview was once again shaken; the Rocket Team, which he had controlled with the equipment, had actually regained consciousness!

This is not scientific! I am a genius scientist! That kind of hypnosis cannot be broken unless I actively try to break it.

Unless the opponent has very strong physical abilities, like the Elite Four, but the Rocket Team members here are basically not at that level.

It only broke occasionally, and only in a few cases, but now it's all been unraveled! How is this possible?!

Wait, Yang Xiying just now...?

"You're just unlucky to have run into so many professionals. Unhypnotizing happens to be one of my strengths."

When Akroma turned his gaze to Yang Xiying, he noticed that the other person was now wearing an extremely amused expression.

—Yang Xiying dispelled the hypnosis activated by the machine.

PS: Update!

The NO.369+370 plasma cluster suffered its first defeat!

Akroma controls the surrounding Team Rocket organizations by using sound waves generated by instruments; to stop them, you can use the same sound waves!

As a superpowered individual, Yang Xiying was still able to transmit the voice of dispelling hypnosis to everyone's ears.

"Heh...! Haha," Akromar laughed in exasperation at the sight, realizing that his methods had repeatedly backfired here!

“But simply dispelling the hypnosis is far from enough to defeat us,” Akromar waved his hand, and the Rockets members on the field moved again.

These were the Team Rocket members who were not confused when they heard Yang Xiying's slap, because they were actually Team Plasma in disguise!

Now is the time to shed the disguise. To everyone's surprise, the Team Rocket members ripped off their clothes.

She changed into new gear: a gray bodysuit, a black vest, gloves, and boots.

Wearing berets and vests with a pattern—the Plasma Cluster symbol—they no longer need to pretend.

"Who are you...?!" At this moment, Team Rocket also realized that it seemed that quite a few outsiders had infiltrated their base.

"...What's Kona, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, doing here?!" And among these outsiders was another heavyweight.

"There's no time to explain now. If you don't want your base to be destroyed, then join us in dealing with these foreigners."

“They’re from Team Plasma, trying to establish themselves in the Kanto region,” Yang Xiying called out to the Team Rocket members who had regained consciousness.

He also said something that would make these people stand with him and Kona and Kanako against a common enemy: Team Rocket is the local tyrant of Kanto.

How could we allow other forces to offend us here?

"And who are you?" Yang Xiying's words also attracted the attention of many Team Rocket members, who looked at him with puzzled expressions.

"Idiot! This person is Yang Xiying, the teacher recognized by that master. Now, let's deal with the invaders who have invaded our base together!"

Just as someone was questioning them, a furious shout came from the woman with burgundy hair, who was wearing a white long dress uniform.

At this moment, she was wearing an extremely angry expression; she was Athena, one of the Team Rocket executives in charge of the Seven Islands operation.

He was the first person to realize the situation around him after regaining consciousness, and he felt extremely humiliated because of it!

To think they'd be controlled by an outside organization! They absolutely must pay the price! And now, relying on the strength of others isn't so bad.

For example, that young man with silver-gray hair was someone that Lord Sakaki had specifically told him he shouldn't mess with.

—He is also a teacher who has contributed to the improvement of Pokémon battle levels within the organization.

"Yes!"

The Rockets members obeyed orders without question. They had heard of the code name "Teacher," and all their combat skills were learned from him!

Therefore, they released their Pokémon to face Team Plasma over there. At the same time, Team Plasma also released their Pokémon to fight back!

"It seems you've all started to share a common hatred..." Akromma was silent for a moment, then waved his hand!

Impatient voices suddenly came from all directions of the corridor, and then five or six more figures appeared around Akromma!

—And those are Genesects!

"What is this thing?!"

"Tch, so there really isn't just one?" Yang Xiying's expression darkened slightly, then she turned her gaze around and spoke loudly.

"Genesect, a legendary Bug/Steel type Pokémon, use fire to deal with them!"

"Did you hear that?! All Team Rocket members, ensure your Pokémon deal Fire-type damage!" Athena immediately acted as the messenger.

"Yes!" At this moment, some Team Rocket members took out their Trainer Cards, which were exclusive to them and could forcibly distort the surrounding space!

This allows Pokémon to battle in another dimension, so there's no need to worry about damaging the environment. Of course, the space a card can distort is limited.

Therefore, Team Rocket sent out some of its members to gather the power of the cards, so that everyone could fight in another dimension!

Meanwhile, another group of Team Rocket members also directly called upon Pokémon that knew Fire-type moves to attack, and a large amount of flames invaded Team Plasma!

Of course, the most important thing is to fight Genesect, because they heard it! The legendary Bug/Steel type Pokémon!

"Defense command!"

The light reflected off Acroma's lenses as it issued a response command: a group of Team Plasma members stepped forward and gave the Protect command to the Pokémon around them.

Green energy erupted from the Pokémon's bodies, eventually gathering together to form a massive energy barrier in an attempt to block the attack!

At the same time, the surrounding environment suddenly transformed into another dimension, but it still looked no different from the previous hall.

Perhaps because of the chaotic battles, the alternate dimension only simulates the same environment as the original, not an environment for actual combat!

Boom—!!!!!!!!!

A large number of scorching flames converged to form an even larger flame that spread out in a fan shape and smashed into the energy shield erected on the opposite side!

The shield remained undamaged, allowing Genesect behind him to prepare his attack, with the turret above his head beginning to gather energy!

This is a high-tech beam cannon! It's a normal-type move with 120 power, but its type can be changed if Genesect is equipped with a certain item.

Just like now, the energy projectiles gathered by Genesect sometimes carry lightning, water, fire, cold air...

This is because the props transformed the high-tech light cannons into those with electrical, water, fire, and ice properties! But they never got a chance to fire!

"Azure Flame Blade Demon! Blazing Charge—!"

Because Yang Xiying was also ready to make her move! Standing behind her was Rin'er, who had evolved from a six-tailed fox into a nine-tailed fox! Her ability, Sunburst, was activated!

Standing before him was the Azure Flame Blade Demon, whose armor had already shattered! The crossed swords burned with azure flames!

"Super-powerful extreme blasting bullet—!"

Yang Xiying then made a dance move, which stunned Kona and Kanako beside her, as did those who were paying attention to Yang Xiying's movements.

"This is...?!" Akromar was also observing Yang Xiying's movements, and he quickly realized what was going on!

But it's too late to stop it now! Not only have the two women beside me become wary of this situation, but it's also too late for me to react!

Boom——! ! !

Yang Xiying, who finally unleashed a golden aura, transferred her energy to Azure Flame Blade Ghost. At this moment, the two of them, one human and one Pokémon, were in perfect harmony!

Azure Flame Blade Demon swung its blades forward twice, the crimson-orange flame blades crossing and spinning, transforming into a spiral sphere! Just like the sun!

It crashed into the protective shield erected by the plasma cluster at extremely high speed, and then the shield shattered like glass!

Then a fireball, twenty or thirty meters long, engulfed the plasma cluster and its Pokémon in front of it, followed by a violent explosion!

Flames and smoke spread in all directions! Many people and Pokémon were blown away, and one side of the Team Rocket base was melted by the intense heat!

When the explosion stopped, what greeted Yang Xiying's group was an extremely chaotic environment.

The steel walls melted so much that many rooms were connected together, and there were signs of spatial fragmentation around.

—If this tactic were used in reality, the consequences would be unimaginable!

"This... how is this possible? The defense has actually broken at this moment..."

On the ground ahead, there were a large number of Plasma members that had been burned to a crisp, and many Pokémon had lost their ability to fight as a result.

The worst off were the Genosects, who were already weak against fire and couldn't fight back. In response, Yang Xiying threw several tennis balls at them.

He scooped up the five or six Genosects that had fallen to the ground, and these creatures, too, were powerless to struggle any longer.

"Even if you defend, you can only reduce the power of Z-Move by 3/4. That 1/4 is enough to deal with you weaklings."

Most of the Rockets members were stunned by what they saw, not to mention just how terrifying the move that person had just used was.

Using a Poké Ball to capture the opponent's Pokémon after the battle was so awesome! This is even more awesome than Team Rocket!

—As expected of that person who is called "Teacher" by that master...!

"Heh, it seems Mr. Yang is quite popular within the Rockets," Kona couldn't help but tease Yang Xiying.

From what she's seen so far, she feels that the Rockets have a lot of respect for Yang Xiying, while their leader Athena's words contain even more information.

"Haha, let's focus on fighting the enemy," Yang Xiying said, embarrassed. "Akroma isn't among those fallen guys."

“They must have escaped this alternate dimension. Let me go and see,” Kanako said, eager to show off her skills.

Yang Xiying didn't stop her, letting Kanako ride the fire-breathing dragon out of the space, since Akroma wasn't a woman.

Kanako wasn't going to get thwarted here, especially since there were quite a few Team Plasma members standing around.

"Do you still want to fight?" Yang Xiying asked the other side, and the members of the Plasma Squad all gave Carlos's military salute.

"—We surrender."

Genesect is gone, Pokémon can't withstand the opponent's attack, and Money Escape is unusable now.

After all, they had all broken into the base they had set up, and the Money Escape Technique would only send them back to this place.
