I'm not a Pokémon succubus.

As for the other side, their uniforms were not uniform. Some were dressed as waiters, some were dressed as chefs, and some were even dressed as deliverymen and couriers. But without exception, they were all members of the Rainbow Rocket Team wearing a colorful R-shaped badge on their chests.

The crowd was noisy.

As the World Championships were in full swing, the streets and alleys of Miare City were crowded with people.

The crowd was surging, and tourists traveling in groups were pouring through the Red Square. Many people noticed the two groups confronting each other here, and someone quietly called Miss Junsha at the police station to report the incident.

People are gossipy animals.

Although they knew it was not good, many people still chose to stay and watch when they saw what looked like a gang of gang members causing trouble right in front of them.

Through the verbal confrontation between Team Flare and Team Rainbow Rocket, everyone who was watching the excitement had a better understanding of what was going on.

It seems that the members of Team Flare are looking for someone, so they have to go to Autumn Avenue, Winter Avenue and the north side streets north of Red Square to search for that person's whereabouts, so as to prevent that person from escaping from the city through Gate No. 4 in the north of Miare City.

However, the members of Team Rainbow Rocket blocked their way here, and refused to let them pass on the grounds that "Team Rainbow Rocket's new store is under construction on Liangtian Avenue and the north side street. They suspect that Team Flare wants to cause trouble there, and the so-called looking for people is just an excuse."

So the two sides started a two-hour standoff, which has continued until now. Both sides are deadlocked and neither is willing to give in.

Fortunately, up to now, the confrontation between the two sides has only remained at the verbal level, and there has been no physical conflict or Pokémon fight.

As time passed, the shrill sound of sirens gradually broke through the air.

At the same time, the leader of the Rainbow Rocket Team, a middle-aged man dressed in a black suit and looking like an elite, also picked up his phone and received a message.

"Ah."

Seeing the message "That person has left Miare City" displayed on his phone, the man in the suit sneered and gave a provocative smile to the Flare team leader standing not far away, glaring at him covetously. His tone was full of disdain: "Alright, you can go now."

As he spoke, he made way and raised his hand towards the north of the city, making a "please" gesture.

But the members of Team Flare did not move.

They stood there, staring hatefully at the members of the Rainbow Rocket Team who were getting in their way, all with gnashing teeth on their faces, as if they wanted to eat the other members alive.

Although they had not received any news, seeing that the other party, who had been tough for two hours, suddenly compromised, what else could they not understand?

This clearly meant that enough time had passed and the target had already left Miare City, so there was no need for him to confront them here anymore.

"Hmph...I'll remember what happened today."

The senior member of the Flare Team, wearing an orange suit and a shiny bald head, spat viciously at the ground, then said something harsh to the middle-aged man who provoked him in a fierce tone. His eyes were so cold that even through his sunglasses, one could feel uncomfortable.

"Ah."

However, upon hearing this, the middle-aged man wearing the Rainbow Rocket Team badge on his chest sneered with disdain.

"Then you better remember it. After all, this kind of thing will happen a lot in the future."

"..."

The sharp words and undisguised malice made the senior members of Team Flare grit their teeth, their rationality almost swallowed by the surging rage.

However, there were already several police cars heading this way in the distance. No matter how angry he was, he didn't dare to fight in front of the police and Miss Junsha. In the end, he could only turn his head away with a look of resentment and resentment, and told the brothers he brought with him to leave in a hurry.

When the members of the Rainbow Rocket Team saw this, they cheered and laughed, then they called off the battle and quickly dispersed, blending into the crowd in the streets and alleys, and quickly disappeared from the square.

So when the police car arrived at the scene and Miss Junsha and the police officers got out of the car with serious faces, both parties in the confrontation had already left without a single one left.

"These guys..."

Frowning, Miss Junsha looked around, her tone somewhat helpless.

"What are you doing?"

Things like this happened many times in the northern part of Miare City today.

The situations were pretty much the same. Team Flare wanted to go to the northern part of the city to look for someone, but Team Rainbow Rocket stopped them from going for various reasons.

The police station also received many calls from concerned citizens today, but because neither side took action and ran away as fast as they saw the police car, the police had no choice but to temporarily classify the confrontation between the Rainbow Rocket Team and the Flare Team as some kind of business conflict between the two organizations.

"I always feel like something is going to happen..."

Miss Junsha spotted a slow-running member of the Flare Team in the noisy crowd - it was because the clothes they wore were too conspicuous - and as she watched his back as he ran towards the Fradali Cafe, she couldn't help but mutter to herself with a worried look on her face.

There is a connecting road between the Red Square and the Sakura Square, and the Vladali Cafe is located on the edge of the Pink Square.

This cafe is decorated in dazzling red and dark black. The walls at the entrance are dark red, like dried blood. This cafe is the headquarters of the Flare Team in Miare City.

And in the basement of the Flare Cafe, in the Flare Laboratory secretly built by the Flare Team, several cadres of the Flare Team gathered here.

There was a man and a woman, both wearing the same orange uniforms as their teammates on Team Flare. Sitting at the head of the group was Vladari, who was wearing a black leather suit.

"Failed."

The female cadre, wearing a slim-fitting orange suit on the upper body, short hot pants on the lower body, and long boots on her legs, spoke with an unwilling look on her face.

"The search these past few days has been difficult because the Rainbow Rockets have been acting like crazy, blocking our path the moment they see us. As a result, we haven't explored the northern part of the city much. The man might have taken advantage of this opportunity to escape through Gate 4 from the north side of the street."

"Ok?"

After hearing what she said, the first person to react was not Fradili, the leader of Team Flare, but the male executive next to him.

He was very tall and strong like a wall. His head and hands, which were not covered by a uniform, had grayish-white skin, making him look like a lifeless zombie.

"Team Rainbow Rocket...?"

The man repeated the name of the organization he heard from the female cadre, a thoughtful look on his gray face.

"I remember that they were an organization from the Kanto region. They've always had a bad relationship with our Flare Team. It's just that they happened to be hindering our operations these past few days. It's too much of a coincidence..."

Muttering to himself, the man turned his gaze to Vladali, who had remained silent.

"Could it be that they have also discovered the identity of that man?"

"Hard to say."

Facing the man's inquiring gaze, Vladali shook his head.

"Logically, we're the only ones who know that guy's identity. But he's a man who's lived for three thousand years and traveled the world. Team Rainbow Rocket's boss is Sakaki from Kanto, a brilliant man with immense ambitions. If that man left behind some information while traveling in Kanto, and Sakaki discovered it, and then learned the secrets of him and the Ultimate Weapon, and then coveted its power, it makes perfect sense."

Vladali sat up straight, put his elbows on the table in front of him, folded his hands, supported his chin, and finished his guess in one breath.

After he said this, the expressions of the two cadres became serious.

"In that case, wouldn't we have competitors?"

The man spoke.

"Yes."

Vladali nodded, agreeing with him.

Then, he turned to the female officer next to him and gave an order: "Bara, arrange for people to go out of the city and search for that man. We must not let him fall into the hands of the Rainbow Rocket Team first."

"Yes!"

The female cadre with green hair and green technological glasses nodded in agreement, then quickly walked out of the meeting room to implement Vladali's order.

"ah......"

As he watched Bala's back disappear behind the closed door, the tall man with grayish-blue skin showed an expression of interest.

"The people of Kanto are actually interested in the ultimate weapon?"

"After all, it's such a powerful force that if used well, even ruling the entire world wouldn't be a problem. It's hard to imagine anyone not being tempted by it after learning of its existence."

Vladali shook his head, his tone full of emotion.

Then he raised his head and looked at the big screen in front of him.

Several photos appeared on the big screen, one of which was of the tall man AZ who Aisha had met on the street in Miare City a few nights ago.

The other photo was of Ishikawa Town, located in the western part of the Kalos region. It wasn't a very large town, and the only thing worth mentioning was the stone Pokémon statues in the center of the town, arranged in a strange pattern, like part of an ancient ruin.

Vladali's eyes were fixed on AZ's photo, or to be more precise, on the strange pendant on AZ's chest in the photo.

"So, the key to activate the ultimate weapon?"

The man also looked over and asked curiously.

"Ah."

Vladali did not hide it and admitted it directly.

Then, he looked at AZ's photo with a complicated tone.

"The king of Kalos three thousand years ago, I never thought he would become this miserable now. So dirty... He's just a tramp!"

At the end of his speech, Vladali's tone changed from complicated to angry, with a hint of anger at the other party's lack of fighting spirit.

The man standing next to him glanced at him and asked, "I've forgotten his story. Could you please tell it to me again?"

"Of course, Kuselowski."

A smile appeared on Vladali's face as he called out the man's name.

"Feel sorry."

He apologized to Kuselowski: "I just lost my composure."

"No problem."

Shaking his head, Kuserowski, who had long been accustomed to Vladali's appearance, didn't care at all.

Then, Fradali began his story.

The man in the photo is named AZ. He is nearly three meters tall and was once the king of the Kalos region.

Three thousand years ago, a fierce war broke out in the Kalos region. This war swept to every corner of the continent, plunging the entire Kalos region into a raging war.

During the war, the lives of displaced civilians were miserable, and even AZ, a member of the royal family, was not immune.

Because of a small-scale conflict, he lost his beloved Pokémon, Flowery.

Filled with grief and pain, unable to accept Huayedi's departure, King AZ, who possessed talents beyond his time, invented the ultimate weapon.

Using the power of the legendary Pokémon as energy, AZ, determined to revive Hanayoti, activated the ultimate weapon and called the lifeless Hanayoti back from hell to the human world, bringing it back to life.

Logically speaking, the story should have ended here.

AZ resurrected his beloved Hua Yeti, and this ill-fated pair had a perfect ending.

But it didn't.

AZ, who was overwhelmed by endless sadness and pain, went berserk.

Although Hua Yeti was resurrected, he felt that this was not enough, far from enough!

He also wants to make the person who caused Hua Yeti to lose her life pay the price.

Obsessed with revenge on both sides who started the war, AZ reversed the program of the final machine and borrowed the power of another legendary Pokémon, turning the final weapon that was supposed to be used to revive Floret into a terrifying weapon that could destroy everything and kill all humans and Pokémon!

Finally, the ultimate weapon in AZ's hands unleashed the power of death, destroying everything.

Both sides of the war melted away under the energy of death, and the war ended.

But the resurrected Huayedi finally discovered that when AZ activated the ultimate weapon, in addition to relying on the power of legendary Pokémon, it also sacrificed a large number of innocent Pokémon.

Huayedi was very disappointed with AZ and left it.

Lost and regained, then lost again, Hua Yeti's departure made AZ feel more painful than ever before.

In addition, at that time, he had personally killed countless lives with the ultimate weapon, and had become a villain with blood on his hands.

He had thought about dying, but after using the ultimate weapon many times, he had been affected by the power of the ultimate weapon and the legendary Pokémon, and had eternal life. AZ, who could not die even if he committed suicide, was now unable to die.

So he could only wander aimlessly in the Kalos region, traveling around the world like a lonely ghost, carrying the curse of eternity, moving forward in endless pain, and from the former king, he became the tattered vagrant he is today.

"And the key to the ultimate weapon has always been hung on his chest."

After talking about AZ's past, Vladali stared intently at the key to the ultimate weapon hanging on AZ's chest in the photo.

"After the war ended three thousand years ago, AZ's brothers sealed the Ultimate Weapon and buried it beneath the Pokémon statue in Ishika Town to prevent anyone from abusing its power. But if you ask me, AZ is just a petty mediocre person. He has no idea how to use the Ultimate Weapon!"

His eyes fell on the photo of Shi Xiangzhen displayed on the big screen, and Vladali's tone became increasingly excited.

He suddenly slammed his hand on the table, making a dull sound, and then began to criticize AZ's behavior mercilessly.

"As long as I get the key to the ultimate weapon, I can use the power of the ultimate weapon to clear out all the worthless people in this world and create the beautiful world of my dreams!"

Vladali's tone was fanatical and his face was distorted.

He was a little crazy, as if he wanted to get Kuselowski's approval, and he loudly expressed his ideals.

"Use the Ultimate Weapon to create a beautiful world where only valuable and great people like you, me, and Aisha exist. This is the true meaning of the Ultimate Weapon, not to use it to resurrect some ridiculous flower-shaped flower!"

When he thought of what AZ had done in the past and what he looked like now, Vladali couldn't help but sneer.
