Chapter 90 The Battle Begins, Who Isn't Confused by the Naive and Adorable Hunter J?
Even when facing the Rockets head-on, Xia Mu wouldn't be nervous at all, even if it meant playing against six opponents.
Let alone one against six, having witnessed enough large-scale events and served as the head of the Crimson Lotus Dojo, Natsuki wouldn't be flustered even in a one-against-sixty situation.
Moreover, given the difference in strength, even without sending out Arcanine, Lucario, and Gyarados, Xia Mu could still overpower almost all opponents below the Elite Four level with Charizard and Dragonite.
"We haven't caused you any trouble, yet you're pushing your luck! With a Pokémon like Dragonite, you can't be anyone's nobody. State your name!" Yamato frowned and questioned.
Given the tense situation, her original plan was to quickly escape the scene with the Moltres to avoid any unforeseen complications.
It is now clear that the person who concealed their identity does not want them to leave.
"You don't need to know my name. If it were a normal capture, I wouldn't care who you are, and we'd each rely on our own abilities. But I won't approve of this method of capture! In short, you won't be able to take Moltres away. You also need to tell me your purpose in capturing Moltres." Xia Mu didn't reveal his true identity and continued to take the initiative.
A surge of anger rose within Yamado, and before she could retort, Kosaburo beside her burst out with curses: "Why waste your breath on him! He's just one person. So what if he has a rare Pokémon like Dragonite? He's not Lance, the champion!"
"That's right, Captain, let's all go and take him down!"
"Dragonite is as rare as Moltres. If we caught them both..."
The other two chimed in, looking into Dragonite's eyes as if they had discovered a great treasure.
Besides Moltres, if you catch Dragonite, Charizard, and Pidgeot, the rewards they receive will be incredibly generous.
A promotion and a raise to become a manager are just around the corner.
"You really dare to dream big. With the strength of you Pokémon, you're no match for me," Xia Mu sneered.
Unexpectedly, at a time like this, these minor members of Team Rocket would still spout nonsense and be so arrogant, even daring to capture Moltres and then steal his Pokémon.
If any of Team Rocket's top executives were here, Natsuki would be more serious and treat them with more care, but these scoundrels...
I don't know how Giovanni trusted them to carry out this mission. Even though Yamato and Kosaburo are quite capable, it's strange that they didn't send any of their officers to capture Moltres.
Suddenly, Xia Mu thought of the four people in trench coats again.
Memories flooded his mind again, and a flash of inspiration reminded him of who that woman was.
Hunter J!
A high-ranking member of a poaching gang that roams the Sinnoh region.
[So it was her. I was wondering why she looked so familiar. I never expected that the aloof and mature woman from the original story would look so cute and innocent now, without the ruthlessness she had when she first appeared in the original.] Xia Mu thought to himself.
Although it was through superpower scanning, their appearance was indeed clearly seen.
It has to be said that, in the years that pass, women often change most significantly.
Recalling Hunter J from the original work, his simple line, "I won't let my precious cargo die," shocked countless people at the time.
A woman of principle, yet utterly ruthless.
……
The two sides were locked in a fierce confrontation. Xia Mu did not back down and, through verbal provocation, the flames of war were ignited.
Faced with Yamato and Kosaburo's order for Marill and Swamp King to launch an attack, Dragonite took the lead and couldn't wait any longer.
Both water cannon shots were forcefully blocked by a single dragon wave.
If it weren't for the two water cannons, Dragonite's Dragon Pulse would have been enough to overwhelm them, instantly killing Azumarill or Quagsire.
After all, there's a difference of more than ten levels! And the Moltres had already used up their stamina.
The explosion sent up thick smoke, cutting off the area.
"What are you all standing there for? Capture the Firebird now!" Yamado shouted at his henchmen, Number 1 and Number 2, who had stopped, ordering them to quickly take off in their jets.
Dragonite is not easy to deal with, as you could tell from that clash just now.
If they miss their chance, they fear they won't be able to deal with the person who's stopping them, and they won't be able to take the Firebird away.
"Yes, Captain." Number 1 immediately started the jet engine upon receiving the order.
Number 2 was controlling the capture equipment, preparing to cast a net at the Moltres.
Xia Mu naturally saw this scene, so how could he sit idly by?
"Did you ask for my permission? Old Man, use Flamethrower to stop them!" Xia Mu's eyes were filled with coldness as he gave the order.
"Roar!!!" The fire-breathing dragon roared, its wings flapping as it soared into the sky.
The intense jet of flame crashed directly into the jet engine.
However, the jet had an energy protection layer, which actually withstood the fire-breathing dragon's attack.
No wonder they were so confident in capturing the Moltres; these high-tech devices alone increased the success rate of the capture by several times.
In the world of Pokémon, the power of Pokémon is undeniable, especially the legendary Pokémon...
However, this does not mean that humans are incapable of fighting back. While the human body is indeed inferior to Pokémon and cannot wield super-powerful abilities, human technological advancements have enabled them to control, subdue, and even defeat legendary Pokémon.
"Damn it! You're determined to go against us, aren't you?! In that case, let's finish you off and leave you here forever! Attack us all!!" Amazon was furious, his handsome face contorted with rage.
She then dispatched a level 43 Golem, a level 43 Sea Lion, and a level 46 Zubat.
It's clear that these are her trump cards, prepared in case of unforeseen circumstances, and now she has no choice but to bring them out.
Seeing this, Kosaburo quickly summoned a level 40 Rattata, a level 44 Houndoom, and a level 46 Boar.
Then there were the two subordinates. They originally used a level 38 Marowak and a level 40 Slowbro, but now they sent out a level 40 Onix and a level 39 Magneton.
It must be said that their skills are quite good, at least at the elite level.
"That's it? If that's all, you'll all be staying here today. And since you want to kill me, I've changed my mind. I won't show you any mercy anymore." Xia Mu's eyes narrowed, and he said to Dragonite, "Fat King, go help Charizard destroy that jet! I don't want to see it fly again. Leave this to Arcanine!"
With a flick of his wrist, Xia Mu pulled out Arcanine's Ultra Ball.
With a flash of white light, Arcanine's majestic figure appeared here.
A muffled growl rang out, threateningly.
All the Pokémon present had their attack power reduced by 1 level, and some of them were even rendered incapacitated and intimidated by Arcanine's overwhelming aura.
A 10-level difference might not seem like much, but a difference of 20 or 30 levels is an absolute crushing defeat.
