The masked man wanders in the Tokiwa Forest, looking for someone while keeping an eye on the situation outside the sea of trees.

"Is there any movement on the outside of the green and trees?"

'Nope'

As Midori answered, the masked man nodded, and continued to run towards the depths of the sea of trees, speeding up his search for the trio.

He didn't know why, but there was an inexplicable sense of crisis that kept reminding him to speed up, as if he would encounter some danger if he couldn't find the trio quickly.

This feeling has only appeared twice in his life, the first time it appeared was in the ice field, and his parents who rode the dragon died, and the second time was this time.

He already remembered the last time, and this time he would naturally pay more attention to the feeling he has now.

But this time he is different from the last time.

The last time he didn't know why he had such an inexplicable reaction, this time he already knew about it.

So the masked man also has a conclusion on this matter.

- If you can't find the trio in a short time, you will give up the pursuit of the three of them and withdraw directly from the Tokiwa Forest.

Even if the people of the alliance knew that I had obtained the silver feather, it would be nothing, and they would at most increase the defense of the Vortex Islands, so that even if I didn't have a chance to seek Rockia's help, it would give me a better chance to find Sherabi.

To be able to do such a thing, this time the goal is enough.

After realizing this, the masked man also sped up his progress and continued to drill into the sea of trees.

......

At this time, Karp is completely unaware of the masked man's thoughts and is still preparing. Watari had already set off with the Second Elven Legion that had been stationed at the headquarters of the Alliance.

Young people may not know what these elven legions represent, but if a member of the alliance who seems to be the age of Dr. Oki sees Wataru with the second elven legion, he will probably be surprised to close his mouth.

After all, the fact that these elven legions have been dispatched means that the alliance is no longer a petty fight for this operation.

If it was only a matter of time that the alliance did not attach much importance to Team Rocket when it was dealing with Team Rocket, then now that even the elven legion has been used, it can only mean that the alliance is conducting a pure war activity this time.

I don't know how many years the alliance hasn't been so serious.

But there is no way to deal with the masked man, the five heavenly kings were almost kept by him, and it is basically impossible to send elite troops to intercept him. The more you reach the level of the old man, the more clear you are about what kind of skills this level trainer has, so although there is only one person in the masked man, it is absolutely no problem to target him as a legion-level unit.

It is precisely for this reason that this time the alliance chose an operation of this scale with great fanfare, and even sent out core members who would only be sent when facing a first-level divine beast again.

Standing in the square of the Alliance, the old man, who rarely came out of the conference room, had a white light in his eyes, and looked down condescendingly at the way Wataru left with the Second Elf Legion, and sighed helplessly.

"I thought that after the alliance was established, we would never dispatch these elven legions again, but now it seems that the decision of those veterans to separate from the world and cultivate elven legions here with peace of mind was correct, but fortunately they persuaded us at the beginning."

As he spoke, the old man remembered what the leader of the First Elven Legion had said to him.

No era will usher in lasting peace, so we must always be prepared for those dangers that are completely unknown. ’

I'm not thinking of danger, it's just that you're being too arrogant. ’

Thinking of this, the old man turned back to his seat in the conference room, sat down at the conference table, and closed his eyes helplessly.

"I hope I can win the masked man smoothly......"

......

The old man's helplessness and the army's dispatch were fleeting, so the situation around Tokiwa Forest was completely unknown.

The man in the gray robe and gray hair entered the depths of the sea of trees at this moment, and walked towards the interior of the sea of trees with a lazy face.

He is the trainer who was assigned by the old man to solve the problem at a critical moment during the last Mewtwo incident.

No one may know him now, but if it had been five hundred years ago, he would have been accurately called by others as long as he was seen by someone else, the shield of the city.

"Said I should come to Jukai to look for the masked man, but the sea of Juki is so big, where can I find the masked man......"

He sighed helplessly, scratched his head with one hand, and continued to walk forward with the attitude of taking one step at a time.

And then.

The ground was suddenly trampled into the air, and he fell straight down.

'Roar'

As the man sank into the ground, a roar sounded from the hole, and a large steel snake came out directly against his figure. After climbing to the ground, the serpent looked around to find out where the enemy was.

The man sat on the head of the big steel snake and slowly narrowed his eyes.

"It seems that I didn't see a target, but someone did see us as a target."

As he spoke, the man shook his head helplessly and patted the head of the big steel snake with one hand.

"Don't worry about them, we came here with a target this time, and we don't have time to consume them like this."

Listening to the man's words, the big steel snake said that he understood, and crawled directly to the side.

And then.

He and the man fell into the hole again.

......

Karp was still in the hole he and Red had made again, and the trio had been silent all morning.

At this time, Red ran in from the outside, staring at Karp with both eyes. Using the ability to sense emotions brought about by the upgrade of Tokiwa's power, Karp sensed his nervousness from Chi's body quite easily.

"Did someone step into the trap we set up?"

Red nodded at Karp's inquiry, and then stared at Karp again, and the trio on the side also turned their eyes when they heard the movement.

Karp smiled at the eyes of the four.

"Don't worry, if you follow those traps, your ultimate goal will be a cliff.

And the trap in the first area is already a distance away from us, and it's not surprising that we are stepped on in that position, so what we need to do next is to confirm the identity of the other party from a distance before making a plan. ”

With that, Karp stood up, and in the process of his shadow and Red's shadow, the Oni got into Chi's shadow, and Karp walked out of the hole in the ground.

"I'll go see the situation first, and you stay and watch the three of them."

Red was stunned for a moment when he heard Karp's words, and then he suddenly saw an emotion emerge from his shadow, and after knowing that Karp had a ghost lurking in the shadow, Red nodded and watched Karp leave.

And Karp, who came out of the hole, directly released the idea of a single dragon and did not use his mental power to lock the opponent's position at all.

"Let's go, Single-headed Dragon."

'Roar'
