—------------------—
Kukui hasn't been sleeping well lately. Originally, he was in a good mood because of Selene's "sudden appearance".
A talented "monster" like Selene is a sign that the Alola region is rising! He plans to wait for a while and then go to the Kanto region to apply for the establishment of the Alola Alliance. Although he doesn't know if he will succeed, he must try.
But some recent subtle discoveries made him realize that there was a turbulent situation beneath the calm surface of the Alola region.
The sudden disbanding of the Team Skull and Guzma opening an entertainment city were two things that Kukui really couldn't understand.
It was so wrong, but he understood it now.
"So are you sure? Is it really Team Rocket from the Kanto region?"
Kukui frowned, he was currently making a video call with multiple people.
The other three are Hala, the king of Melemele Island, Nanu, the king of Ulaulla Island, and Olivia, the queen of Akala Island.
It can be said that these are the people with the highest power in the Alola region at present.
"Well, I personally interrogated him. The black uniform had a capital 'r' on it. It couldn't be wrong that it was Team Rocket."
Hala said in a deep voice.
His subordinates accidentally captured a few disheveled Pokémon hunters, and after interrogation they found out that their base had been cleared out and they themselves were chased and hid everywhere.
The one who cleared out the Pokémon Hunters' base was actually the dark organization Team Rocket! This...
Hala was shocked at the time. He was not familiar with Team Rocket, but he had heard of it. The problem was...
"Isn't Team Rocket only active in the Kanto region? How come they appear here?" Olivia asked puzzledly.
The distance between the Kanto region and the Alola region is quite far.
"Alas! These are troubled times." Nanu held his forehead and couldn't help but sigh.
"Expand the territory. For an evil organization like Team Rocket, there would be no other reason." Kukui said helplessly.
"In that case, the disbanding of Team Skull is probably related to Team Rocket. Team Rocket is currently cleaning up the last of the dark forces on Melemele Island."
Kukui reasonably guessed that since Team Rocket had come to the Alola region, the first thing they would do would be to cause trouble for Team Skull.
And now the results have proven that Team Skull is gone, and Guzma...is probably going to join Team Rocket.
"He comes with bad intentions. He's a man-eating tiger." Hala said in a low voice.
Nanu sighed again.
"Is it that exaggerated?" Olivia felt that the three of them seemed to be making a big deal out of nothing.
"Team Rocket may be difficult, but this is our Alola." Olivia said calmly with her hands on her hips.
After all, Team Rocket's base is in the Kanto region, so even if they expand outward, it is impossible for them to send out all their manpower.
Alola and Kanto are separated by a vast ocean, and traveling back and forth takes time, not to mention providing support.
"Instead of worrying about the meaninglessness here, we can just send someone to investigate Team Rocket's base, and then we can work together to eliminate them."
Olivia smoothed her hair and showed a charming and confident smile.
"Let Team Rocket see the power of Alola. Really, out of all the regions to choose from, they chose Alola. What's the meaning of this? Are they looking down on us?"
As the youngest island queen, Olivia is indeed qualified to be proud, and she does not think that Team Rocket from Alola will be difficult to deal with.
What a joke!
Even though they don't have an alliance in the Alola region, nor do they have the Elite Four or the Champions, are they weak?
The three island Kahunas are all powerful trainers at the Elite Four level, and Kukui is even a champion! There are also Kukui's good friend Marin, Acerola, who was trained by Nanu as his successor, and Kahiri, who won the island tour champion a few years ago and is now traveling around the world, are all Elite Four level. (Marin and Kahiri are the Elite Four of Alola in "Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon")
Do you really think that the Alola region is easy to bully? !
Olivia felt that she could handle this Alola Rocket Division. She was the island Kahuna of Akala Island!
"What Olivia said makes sense. Let's send someone to investigate first. No matter what, we can't allow the Rocket Team to develop recklessly in our Alola." Hala, as the oldest island Kahuna, spoke in a deep voice.
Team Rocket is an evil organization, and it goes without saying that they have bad intentions.
"If you find any trace of Team Rocket, don't act rashly."
"Well, let's leave it at that for now."
"We still have to keep a close eye on Guzma. I suspect that Guzma has already joined Team Rocket."
Kukui added that his intuition was always accurate.
After a few more discussions, they ended the video call. Kukui looked at the sea outside the research institute with a heavy and deep expression.
The Rocket Team, which was able to develop under the nose of the Kanto Alliance, must be extraordinary, especially for their region where even the regional alliance has not yet been established.
But the only thing to be thankful for is that Team Rocket will definitely not send out all its members, and it is not known how many Team Rocket masters will come to Alola this time.
…
Inside the villa on Melemele Island.
"Master, I'm afraid that Hala has already noticed our presence."
Cross lowered his head and spoke respectfully to Mammon who was holding Domino.
"According to reports from my subordinates, some fleeing Pokémon hunters were captured by Hala's men."
"It's okay. It's just a matter of time."
Mammon put his arms around Domino's soft waist and replied indifferently.
It would be better to say that the Kahuna of the Island is a little slow in discovering the existence of Team Rocket only now.
But it's not surprising. Apart from clearing out the Pokémon Hunters' strongholds, Team Rocket's other activities are very secretive.
"Let's continue the cleanup operation. Let Guzma and Catlin go together to completely eliminate the underground forces on Melemele Island." Mammon ordered.
"Yes, I will inform Catlin and Guzma."
Cross nodded. The cleanup operation on Melemele Island has always been in charge of Catlin.
"Master, if we take action in the near future, it will probably alert Hala." Domino asked doubtfully.
"We have to say hello to them. We are all 'friends' who are developing together in the same region."
Mammon's smile slowly rose. He had long wanted to have a good meeting with Hala and the others.
"Master, are you going to show up in person? But what about the boss?"
Cross was a little worried. After all, it was not hidden from the outside that Mammon was Giovanni's son.
Mammon has become a high-ranking member of Team Rocket. When the people from the Kanto Alliance are paired with Hala and his men, shouldn't Giovanni, as their father, be investigated?
"Don't worry, I've already thought about it. I'll just let Old Man and I cut ties when the time comes."
"Ah?" Cross was stunned.
"A real man lives in this world, how can he be depressed and inferior to others for a long time? When the time comes, that old Man should give up his position to me, and let him be the master of his gym."
"I, Mammon, am the one who can lead Team Rocket to rise! I want to be the boss, too!"
Mammon grinned, looking indescribably arrogant.
