Pokémon: Join Team Rocket at the Beginning

Compared to Yang Ming who was hiding in the research institute and leisurely watching the news reports, Yin Yue was not having an easy time these days.

As the biggest contributor to solving the cruise ship hijacking case, her superiors only praised her performance verbally, but completely rejected her report. Instead, they pinned all the blame for the cruise ship hijacking on Team Rocket.

This made her feel very disappointed. She had never thought before that the Alliance would be an organization that concealed the truth.

"Yang Ming, you guessed it all right..."

These days, she often recalled the time when she fought side by side with Yang Ming. This man of similar age, thoughtful but slightly pessimistic about human nature, left a deep impression on her.

Although they have different positions, Yin Yue has long regarded him as a confidant and a comrade-in-arms who can be relied on.

However, during this period of time, people from the alliance's senior leadership kept asking her about Yang Ming's whereabouts. Although these people were gentle in their attitudes, Yin Yue knew that they did not have good intentions.

Therefore, Yin Yue chose to keep silent about the relevant issues to protect Yang Ming as much as possible, but in return she was constantly questioned by the top management.

If it weren't for her status as a Heavenly King disciple, the other party's attitude would have been even tougher.

Her subordinates, such as Yan Sen and Elena, were naturally indignant about the unfair treatment she received, but unfortunately, due to the difference in status, these grassroots investigators were powerless to do anything.

In addition to standing up for Yin Yue, Yang Ming's photo also caught their attention.

"Is this the hero who teamed up with Lord Yin Yue in this hijacking incident? Why do I always feel like I have seen him before?" Yan Sen looked at Yang Ming's photo in the news report and said thoughtfully.

"I don't know why, but I always feel that this person is hateful..." Elena frowned, feeling a dull pain in her stomach.

On the other hand, Ma Zhishi, the owner of the Kuye Pavilion, received an even more severe punishment.

"What? The Alliance is going to suspend the development funding for Dead Leaf Port?!" Ma Zhishi punched the wall behind him and roared.

"Yes, this is a decision unanimously passed by the Alliance Central Council." Opposite him was one of the alliance's top ninjas, Aju, who was good at poison-attribute Pokémon.

Aju is stronger than Ma Zhishi and has a higher status, but at this moment he looks ashamed and speaks to Ma Zhishi in a humble voice.

"I don't understand. It's the gym leader's duty to protect his hometown. Why do you not only want me to let those robbers go, but also deliberately conceal the truth? Can you tell me why?!"

"I'm sorry, brother." Ah Ju couldn't answer Ma Zhishi's question at all, and could only apologize. "I can't answer you this question. I only know that if this matter is not handled well, both Dead Leaf City and Light Red City will be destroyed."

"What?!" Ma Zhishi's face changed. Kuye City is his hometown, and Qianhong City is Aju's hometown. Since Aju can say such a thing, it means that the power behind the whole incident can even threaten the king.

"Could it be that the person behind the pressure is from one of those companies?"

Ah Ju nodded, agreeing: "It's not just one company, it's a decision made by several companies together."

"Is that so..." Ma Zhishi hunched over, as if he had aged several years. "I understand. Go tell those people. I will keep the secret for them. I hope they can leave a way out for Kuye City."

After saying that, he left the room without looking back.

"Brother..." Aju wanted to reach out and hold this old friend, but finally let go of his hand.

In the pitch-black night, a huge Pokémon was flying over the endless sea. It had a body like a legendary dragon, with only a pair of small wings behind it, but it could fly at a speed that no monitor could capture.

This Pokémon is called Dragonite. According to legend, it has the highest speed and unparalleled strength among all Pokémon, and can even compete with legendary Pokémon.

Dragonite flew over the sea at a speed that could not be seen by the naked eye, and arrived at Honglian Island in a few breaths. Dragonite landed in front of an inconspicuous house without making a sound. Then, a figure fell from Dragonite's back.

This is a young man with red hair, a determined look in his eyes, and an upright posture. One glance at him will make people feel awe. He is the number one master of the Kanto Alliance, the strongest dragon rider, the strongest investigator of the alliance, Du!

Compared to him, Apollo, Athena, Shui Wutong, and Bixias were just a bunch of minor characters. If he wanted to, he could fight even the legendary Zapdos, Moltres, and Articuno!

However, when facing this unremarkable house in front of him, the alliance's top master behaved extremely respectfully, bowing and waiting for the owner of the house to open the door.

After a while, an ordinary old man came out of the house. He was the old man that the water fleet had been looking for on the cruise ship.

"Chairman Damalanqi!" Du bowed and saluted, showing great respect for the alliance chairman in front of him.

Dama Lanqi hummed, then smiled and said, "You came to see me in the middle of the night. I'm afraid you've encountered something unpleasant in the alliance again. Is it because of those people from those families that you're uncomfortable again?"

"Yes," Du said bluntly, "I found a few like-minded congressmen to submit a bill to reduce the taxes of ordinary people so that more people can become Pokémon trainers recognized by the alliance, but it was rejected by the parliament controlled by these guys."

"What's even more infuriating is that this group of people actually tried to cover up the truth of the cruise ship hijacking incident. Now, whether it's the Vermillion Gym, the investigators involved in the incident, or the tourists involved, they have all been ordered to keep their mouths shut!"

"During your absence, the parliament has become a one-man show for them!"

"Really? This is something they would do," Dama Lanqi said calmly. "In fact, this incident was planned by these people. Their purpose was to kill an old man like me."

"What? These people actually dare to harm you, Chairman!?" Du was furious. Dama Lanqi was not only the chairman of the alliance, but he also had a teacher-student and friend relationship with him. When he heard that these ancient families were trying to harm Dama Lanqi, he wanted to fight them immediately.

"Don't be impatient," Dama Lanqi stopped him immediately, "The seven major families existed before the establishment of the alliance. The internal power relations are complicated and they are not forces that can be easily eliminated."

"Aren't they trying to pin the hijacking of the cruise ship on Team Rocket? Well, then we'll just wait and see them fight with Team Rocket, and when the time is right, we'll eliminate them in one fell swoop!"

"They can use the water fleet to stir up trouble, and we can also use the rocket team to weaken them."
