Pokémon: Rebron as Red, The Strongest Champion

"Sir, it's very difficult for us to handle things when you do this."

A mocking voice came from behind. Red turned his head and saw that a dozen people had surrounded him tightly, afraid that he would escape. Some, holding crowbars, were already taking back all the game coins that Red had previously 'given' to others. If anyone resisted, they were directly suppressed with force. Were they really getting so arrogant?

"Originally, I thought you were a rich person with good luck, but I didn't expect you to be a cheater!" The Captain said unhappily, reaching out to pull off Red's disguise, but was held in place by the Millennium Gengar, who used its psychic power from beneath the shadows.

"Difficult to handle? I say, let's not handle it at all!" the Millennium Gengar teased.

Red threw the two Poké Balls in his hand, and the Blood-Red Gyarados and Hitmonchan appeared simultaneously. The Blood-Red Gyarados's eyes instantly turned blood-red, and it roared, sweeping away everything around it with its tail, because it was too 'familiar' with this scent! It was the owner of this scent who had cruelly modified it. The Blood-Red Gyarados would never forget this painful memory from beginning to end. Its training, day and night, was for revenge.

After guessing that Dr. Namba's experimental team was hidden beneath the Celadon Game Corner, Red immediately went to the Pokémon Center to switch Pokémon, teleporting the Blood-Red Gyarados back to his side. Red had never forgotten his promise to help the Blood-Red Gyarados get its revenge.

Now was the time.

"This is a Team Rocket hidden base; irrelevant people, leave quickly!" Red reprimanded, and the Blood-Red Gyarados beside him also 'considerately' let out a roar, scaring away the crowd that had intended to take photos.

(Now that chaos has been caused, even if someone tries to stop it, the news won't be suppressed.)

This was the effect Red wanted. If he had gone to the police station first to entrust Officer Jenny, she might not have believed someone of Red's age, subconsciously thinking he was causing trouble. But by directly causing an incident, he could definitely attract the attention of the police.

"Should we call the police?" The boss, who was watching the surveillance, said in a panic, fearing that his game corner, which he had operated for so long, would be ruined. Although the situation was already not much different.

"Are you not thinking straight?" The Captain, listening through the microphone, almost laughed in anger. He was Team Rocket. Now, if they dealt with Red as soon as possible and suppressed the news that was about to be exposed, they might still have enough time to evacuate. If they actively called the police, then this combat experimental base would no longer need to exist, and they would all be imprisoned by the police.

"Then what should we do?" The boss said in a panic. He hadn't expected such a big incident to happen today.

"You immediately go and notify Officer Jenny… No…"

"Okay, received, received."

The surveillance camera was shattered by a stone thrown by Red, and the Millennium Gengar also controlled the Captain to hang up the communication, telling the boss to quickly call the police.

"Boss, it seems we're not infiltrating, are we?"

The Millennium Gengar watched Hitmonchan knock out a Team Rocket member who tried to stop it, and it scratched its head in confusion, not knowing what to do. This was purely a forced entry, wasn't it?

"If we control these people, then no one will expose our whereabouts, right?" Red joked.

"You're right!" The Millennium Gengar realized, then swiftly used Hypnosis to hypnotize everyone present, preventing any information from being exposed.

"Hypnotize this guy to tell us the passage to the underground base," Red ordered, taking a key from the hypnotized Captain. He guessed it was the key to the underground base. To be safe, Red also duplicated the Captain's fingerprint.

A moment later, Red temporarily recalled the Blood-Red Gyarados, then went with the Millennium Gengar and Hitmonchan to the underground experimental base passage of the Celadon Game Corner, quickly arriving in front of a dilapidated warehouse door.

"I didn't expect this broken warehouse to be a secret passage," the Millennium Gengar said.

Red took out the key and tried to open the passage but found that the key broke directly. It seemed that at the Captain's level, he could only be used as bait and could not get the real matching key.

"Hitmonchan, use Bullet Punch!"

Seeing this, Red simply ordered Hitmonchan to force its way in. An iron door of this level could not stump him.

Hitmonchan's Iron Fist shattered the iron door with one blow, rushing in first to scout for Red, while the Millennium Gengar hid in Red's shadow, paying attention to the movements behind Red.

At this moment, Dan, who was on the third floor of the experimental base, quickly received the news.

"How is that possible?! That guy found my whereabouts so quickly?" Dan almost doubted his life but quickly threw out Crobat's Poké Ball.

"Crobat, quickly help me find the tracker on me!"

After a brief thought, Dan also realized the strangeness at the Celadon Gym and why the Millennium Gengar had only 'watched' him leave with a look of regret.

"So that's how it is. I didn't expect to be so thoroughly outmaneuvered."

Dan's confidence inexplicably sank a lot at this moment. It turned out that it wasn't that he was well prepared, but that Red had calculated him even more thoroughly. Dan only blamed himself for treating Red too much like an ordinary teenager, subconsciously underestimating Red's wisdom.

An angry Dan stomped on the tracker that Crobat had found on him but then thought, isn't this a good time to get revenge on Dr. Namba?

('Dear' Dr. Namba, since you actively 'entrusted' me with the task to leave as soon as it's completed, then I shall respectfully obey!)

Dan knew that Dr. Namba was not in the base but only used a projection to control the machines to complete the experiment, so Dan didn't need to worry that Giovanni would blame him. After all, it was Dr. Namba who actively drove Dan away, not Dan 'voluntarily.'

"Let's go!"

After speaking, Dan grabbed Crobat's small wings and left through the secret passage. Before leaving, he didn't forget to throw a few time bombs to destroy the evidence and prevent Team Rocket's research data from falling into the hands of the League.

"Hitmonchan, use Rapid Punch!" Red ordered.

Hitmonchan swung its fists, continuously smashing the cages in front of it. Many captured Pokémon were confined in the cages. Most of these Pokémon looked emaciated and had no appetite, clearly a result of abuse by Team Rocket.

This was also the truth behind why the Celadon Game Corner could exchange Pokémon. They were either captured in the wild or snatched from trainers, then imprisoned in the underground experimental base for research. Only when they had no more use value were they reluctantly turned into prize exchanges.

However, there was no Dratini here. This was clearly information deliberately leaked by the Celadon Game Corner to attract others to gamble heavily. After all, slot machines could also be controlled by the backend system, causing gamblers who were about to win the Dratini amount to return to being penniless.

"Come out, Abra," Red threw out a Poké Ball. The white light dissipated, and a silver Abra appeared in front of Red.

"Abra, quickly take everyone out of the underground base. The police will be here to support us soon," Red instructed, then continued forward with Hitmonchan.

Abra understood the meaning, looked at the imprisoned Pokémon in front of him with pity, shook his head, and then used Teleport to take the Pokémon out of the underground base.
