Pokémon: Join Team Rocket at the Beginning

"What? You are going to Zhanlan City?" After hearing the purpose of Yang Ming and others' visit, the fat man showed a strange look.

"I know a little about the situation there. Because of the anger of the Sea God, that sea area is now in a state where it is impossible to navigate, unless -"

"Unless?" Yang Ming's pupils shrank, knowing that the point was coming.

"Well, although it is impossible to sail on the sea or in the sky, it is possible underwater," the fat man introduced, "In fact, there is a submarine here that will go to Azure City. I can arrange a position for you guys."

"I didn't expect that the small hurricane just now would only affect things on the water surface," Yang Ming said in amazement, "It seems that this kind of hurricane is indeed closer to a rule."

That night, both the host and the guests had a great time. Before leaving the next day, the fat man gave Yang Ming a heart scale as a farewell gift.

"After using this Heart Scale on a Pokémon, it can awaken a skill. However, since the awakened skill is random, it is possible to learn a powerful skill or a rubbish skill. This is completely based on luck."

"The passengers in that submarine are of extraordinary status, and several of them are elite trainers. Brother, you'd better try not to conflict with them."

"Thanks for the reminder, brother," Yang Ming grinned, "I'll try my best."

Elites? I have two in my own team, so what if I provoke them?

Under Fatty's arrangement, everyone successfully boarded the submarine. The owner of the submarine was the brother-in-law of the mayor of Qiancong City, who made a fortune by taking advantage of the suspension of airplanes and ships. Every tourist who boarded the submarine had to pay a very expensive fee, but fortunately Fatty had already paid for Yang Ming and his group.

"Your friend is such a good person," Feng Lu sighed, "Before, I secretly made fun of him because he was fat. Now I think I shouldn't have done that."

"Yes, although I also gave a gift, what he gave me in return was indeed more valuable." Yang Ming nodded.

With nothing to do, Yang Ming asked Feng Lu to help him look after the children, while he took Jones for a stroll in the submarine.

In addition to Yang Ming and his group, there were five other guests on the ship, including the girl Caidou whom I met yesterday.

Apart from Caidou, the other four people gave Yang Ming an unusual feeling. Yang Ming felt a kind of "same kind" aura from them, a murderous aura that only people who often kill people can emit.

Yang Ming knocked on the door of one of the rooms. A bald man in his thirties opened the door and looked at him warily.

"Don't worry, we are family." Yang Ming said with a smile, and then secretly showed the badge symbolizing the elite status of the Rockets.

The man's face changed slightly, and then returned to normal in an instant.

"This is not the place to talk, please come in."

After confirming that there was no one around, the bald man led the two people into the room and closed the door.

Then, he took out the badge that symbolized his identity.

"Let me introduce myself first. I'm Masao, a special team member sent by the organization to perform a mission in Azure City. My rank in the organization is level five. I wonder what your name is, my friend?"

Yang Ming, deputy director of the Manjin branch, is also level five. The man next to him is my adjutant," Yang Ming said straight to the point, "Like you, I am also here in the Blue City on business, but I don't know where the other three people on this submarine came from, so I hope you can give me some advice."

Since entering the submarine, he had already seen through the bald man's identity as Team Rocket. But the other three made him quite wary. Unlike Caidou and Masao, these three people went in and out together and were completely in the same group.

Three elite trainers whose identities are unknown, who have killed people and are acting as a group, are definitely worth being wary of.

"I don't know the specific identities of these three people," Zhengxiong said, "but I can be sure that they were all summoned by the Sea God Temple."

"Temple of the Sea God?" This was the first time Yang Ming had heard of this force.

Masao explained, "Yes, just like there is a bell tower in Yuzu City dedicated to the Phoenix King, there is also a Poseidon Shrine in Azure City dedicated to the Sea God Lugia. It's just that Azure City is far away from the main city of Johto, and the Poseidon Shrine has gradually declined over the years, so it has gradually become unknown."

"This time, due to the abnormal weather in the sea area near Azure City, planes and ships are no longer able to pass through. The people at the Sea God Temple believe that this is due to the anger of the Sea God Lugia, which caused the current abnormal weather."

"In order to solve the problem, we naturally have to go to the Whirlpool Island where Lugia is to perform a sacrifice to calm Lugia's anger. However, the Whirlpool Islands are full of dangers, so the Sea God Temple hired experts from other places to help at a high price."

"I see," Yang Ming said, "Then won't the Blue Gym's owner, Ah Si, help? Logically speaking, he is also a quasi-king-level expert, much better than these elites hired from outside."

"You don't know this," Masao explained. "The Sea God Temple is a very xenophobic force. They are very hostile to forces that compete with them for influence in Azure City. After all, the gym leader represents the alliance on the surface, so they are naturally wary of him."

"After all, those outsiders are paid to do the work, so they will naturally leave after completing the task, which will not arouse their fear."

"Is that so..." Yang Ming suddenly realized.

"And I was assigned by my superiors to sneak into these trainers and enter the Whirlpool Island together," Masao said, "By the way, brother, if you have time, can you join me in this mission?"

"This……"

"Don't worry, I will give you half of the reward for the mission," Zhengxiong said hurriedly when he saw Yang Ming still hesitating, "Brother, you can see that the other three are in the same group. In addition to this group of people, a group of experts have already landed on the island in advance. In comparison, our Rocket Team is not superior in strength."

"Although we still have some personnel in Azure City, they are just ordinary team members and cannot participate in such a battle. And I am alone, and it is really difficult for me to carry out the task alone."

After Yang Ming pondered for a moment, he immediately agreed: "Okay, if my task here is easy, I can help you solve it."

Hearing this, Zhengxiong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that this mission was very dangerous after boarding the submarine. Now that he had Yang Ming as a strong supporter, he felt relieved.

"Okay, your words are enough for me, brother."

"There is a pharmacy in the northern part of Azure City. That is our local contact station. You can come to find me there in the future."

"This is information about the Poseidon Temple and Whirlpool Island. You can also take a look."

After receiving the required information, Yang Ming said goodbye to Zhengxiong.
