Chapter 233 Secrets
Chapter 233 Secrets
Apollo was taken aback and didn't react for a moment:
"what?"
Lu An crossed his arms:
"Your conquest of Golden City and the taking over of Silver Corporation, ostensibly in response to the Investigators' retaliation, is actually your primary objective to steal Silver Corporation's Master Ball manufacturing technology."
"Master Ball?"
Xiao Lantan's mouth was slightly open.
Why are these explosive news stories, which are usually impossible to find out about, coming one after another today?
Lu An stroked his chin:
"As one of the few Pokémon Balls capable of catching legendary Pokémon on equal terms, who do you want to catch?"
"Is it Mewtwo that has already escaped?"
"Or is it the soon-to-be-formed Deoxys?"
Little Blue tilted her head:
"Mewtwo? Deoxys? What kind of Pokémon are these? I've never heard of them before?"
Unlike Xiao Lan, who had connections to everything but was unaware of the matter, Apollo, who had been calm and collected, panicked immediately upon hearing Lu An reveal Team Rocket's biggest secret:
How did you know about these two things?
It's normal that some information about Mewtwo was leaked because the investigators repeatedly destroyed Team Rocket's experimental base.
Moreover, just as Lu An said, Mewtwo has already escaped, and even if the investigators know what they want to do, there is nothing they can do.
But how did Lu An know about Deoxys?
This is the Rockets' top secret!
It is the most crucial secret of Team Rocket after their failed attempt to create Mewtwo!
Even the name Deoxys was only recently decided upon by Boss Sakaki.
How did Lu An find out?
Could it be that there's a mole within the Rockets?
Just as Apollo was sweating profusely and rapidly trying to figure out who the mole was within the Rockets, Lu An gave a cold smile:
"I know far more about the Rockets than you do."
For example, Sakaki actually has a son named Gin.
For example, Giovanni has a terminal illness and is dying.
For example, Sachs was actually a mole within Team Galactic.
Of course, Apollo must have thought Lu An was just bragging.
Therefore, after a brief moment of thought, Apollo regained his confident and composed expression:
“That’s right. One of our purposes in taking over Silver is to obtain the crafting techniques for the Master Ball.”
"Not only that, we will also take Silver's century-old records with us."
"Although I don't know how Lu Te and the others knew our purpose or how they knew about Deochis, it doesn't matter."
Apollo smiled slightly:
"As long as Lu Te and others can stay in Silver Tower forever, our Rockets team can take our time with everything else."
Lu An responded to Apollo's threat with a smile:
"You?"
"Even Sakaki wouldn't dare say he could keep me at Silver Tower, what are you? How dare you make such a boast?"
Apollo did not question Lu An's domineering remarks.
After all, he was well aware of how much trouble the young Lu An had caused the Rockets.
Even Sakaki once said, "Unless absolutely necessary, do not oppose Lu An."
Apollo bowed:
"I am well aware of this. Even Boss Sakaki has praised Lu Te's strength and has repeatedly expressed his regret in front of us that we could not recruit Lu Te. It is a great loss for Team Rocket."
Lu An did not respond to Apollo.
Apollo continued:
“I am also very clear that with my insignificant strength, I am not capable of keeping Lu Te and the others here.”
"When we came to Goldenrod City, we naturally thought that we might have to face off against Lu Te and others. But with Lu Te and others' strength, I'm afraid that apart from Giovanni, no one in Team Rocket can stand up to you."
"I was also very worried about how we would deal with it if Lu Te and others came in person. Fortunately, Boss Sakaki helped me in the end."
Lu An narrowed his eyes, his mind racing, trying to figure out what trump cards the Rockets had that could counter his numerous misdeeds.
Apollo reached out and took out something that looked like a compass.
"Even with Team Rocket's strength, they could only create one of these, but Boss Giovanni entrusted it to me, which shows how much he trusts me."
The moment Lu An saw that thing, he suddenly understood.
Xiao Lan's eyes widened as well:
"what!"
In the original story, the trio of Red, Blue, and Blue also broke into Silver Tower and faced off against Lt. Surge's Zapdos, Kikko's Articuno, and Sabrina's Moltres.
While Blue was getting rid of Sabrina, she stole an energy amplifier from Team Rocket.
Yes, Blue broke into Silver Tower not to fight Team Rocket like the original Red and Blue, or Lu An and other investigators.
She was only there to steal.
And that compass-like energy amplifier is Xiao Lan's ultimate goal.
It is said that if you can put seven Gym Badges into the Power Amplifier, it will create a Pokémon unlike any other.
Blue wanted to possess that Pokémon, which is why she came here on this risky journey.
However, Lu An knew very well that this was a lie.
Collecting all seven Gym Badges in Kanto will not allow the Power Amplifier to create a new Pokémon.
Its function is...
"Magic Mask Meow, snatch that device from Apollo's hands!"
"Meow!"
......
Golden Dojo.
After defeating Athena, Crimson and Blue stormed into the backyard and captured the other Team Rocket members as well.
They went inside and were shocked to find several men and women with their hands tied behind their backs and their mouths stuffed with tissues, making "mmm" sounds.
Crimson untied them:
Are you from the Saffron Gym?
The woman at the head rubbed her fair wrist and responded:
"Thank you both for coming to my rescue. My name is Xiaozhu, and I am an assistant at the Goldenrod Gym."
"Those hateful Team Rocket members, relying on Zapdos and Articuno, caused a huge ruckus in the stadium. We were no match for them and that's why we were defeated."
"They even stole the protective shield that shelters Saffron City inside the gym."
Xiaozhu viciously stomped on the members of Team Rocket twice.
Hearing the Rockets' pitiful cries of pain, even Chi Hong's eyelids twitched twice.
But Pikachu, always mischievous, clapped and cheered while making "beep beep beep beep" sounds.
Green asked:
"Where is your gym leader? Why didn't I see her at the gym? Did she desert her post?"
Xiao Zhu's eyes widened, and she stomped down hard again, making the Team Rocket member's eyes glaze over:
"How could that be? Our curator..."
"I'm here."
