The quietly opened back door was like a huge mouth devouring, pitch black, without the slightest light coming through.

Akimasa wasn't afraid, he just thought for a while about what level of surprise would be the most appropriate to show if he really saw Sakaki.

Astound? Stunned? Expressionless but pupils squake?

Mingzheng suddenly felt that sometimes it was tiring to know too much.

Thinking like this, Ming Zheng had already quietly walked in and closed them with his hand.

Then, the door opens automatically.

“？？？”

"Someone will be coming in a while, why are you closing the door?"

The voice rang out, and he was so embarrassed that he was slamming his toes on the ground.

He turned his head to look, and saw Xia Bo, the owner of the Red Lotus Dao Pavilion, walking slowly with a candle.

"Summer ...... Xia Bo Pavilion Owner? ”

Ming Zheng's eyes widened, nervous and weak-hearted, and then his face was puzzled.

Xia Bo didn't have any doubts about the change in Mingzheng's expression, but just stretched out his hand to reveal the Team Rocket mark inside the white coat.

"Come with me."

Xia Bo said softly, then turned and walked towards the basement.

Ming Zheng was stunned for two seconds, then turned his head to look around, and then cautiously followed.

This fluid performance is like instinct, perfectly interpreting the shock and confusion when he first found out that Shaber is also Team Rocket, and the realization and crumbled excitement afterwards.

Smack~Smack~Smack~

On the stairs leading to the basement, Xia Bo and Ming Zheng walked one after the other, and the light in the basement became brighter and brighter, and finally an ordinary small living room appeared.

The man, on the other hand, sat on the sofa in a straight suit, casually flipping through an old book.

Finally, the two walked into the living room.

"Here we are."

The voice was thick and magnetic, and Sakaki closed the book and finally looked up at Akimasa.

Ming Zheng pretended to suppress the tension in his heart and hummed softly.

Sakaki's voice was exactly the same as what came out of the phone at the time, so after hesitating for two seconds, Akimasa pretended to shout tentatively.

“BOSS？”

Xia Bo glanced at Mingzheng, but Sakaki nodded lightly, not surprised that he was guessed.

"Sit down, wait for one more person."

After Sakaki finished speaking, Xia Bo consciously returned to the first floor to wait.

Suddenly only Akimasa and Sakaki were left in the living room.

The atmosphere became dull, Sakaki didn't take the initiative to speak, and Akimasa didn't say much.

However, it also gave him the opportunity to get a closer look at the legend of Sakaki.

is slightly different from the appearance of Sakaki in the original book, and the current Sakaki is a little younger, but the momentum of the superior is already very obvious.

The slightly gloomy eyes and thick eyebrows give people a strong sense of aggression, and they don't look very easy to mess with.

A few minutes later, there was a sound of stairs and two fast and slow footsteps, and Xia Bo came down with a muscular man in camouflage uniform and blond hair.

The shock in the blonde man's eyes was not gone, and he was shocked again when he saw Sakaki.

saw Sakaki put down the book in his hand again and looked at the other party.

"What, forgot about me?"

"Saka...... Chieftain? ”

The blonde man apparently remembered Sakaki's voice as well, which had also been present in his contact.

When he first challenged Joban Dokan, Sakaki did not speak.

When the two were combined, the blonde man was unsurprisingly shocked.

"Hmm"

Sakaki no longer hidden, nodded at the blonde man, and then looked at Xia Bo again.

Xia Bo understood in seconds, and immediately answered, "Everyone has arrived, let me introduce it first."

Boss Sakaki, the leader of our Team Rocket, is also the owner of the Tokiwa Gym.

Ming Zheng, a senior intelligence officer at the Yuanxi base, and the champion of the Sinnoh-Lily of the Valley Conference.

Ma Zhishi, senior intelligence officer of the Withered Leaf City base, runner-up of the Kwantung-Quartz Conference, and major of the Alliance Air Force. ”

Compared with Mingzheng, Ma Zhishi has one more identity.

And the moment Ma Zhishi arrived, Ming Zheng recognized him, but he didn't expect that Ma Zhishi had only seen Sakaki for the first time now.

"I, the person in charge of the Red Lotus Research Institute, the owner of the Red Lotus Gym, hehe~"

In the end, Xia Bo also happily introduced himself, a happy little old man.

And Sakaki obviously didn't care about Xia Bo's tricks, and went straight to the point.

"Mingzheng, Ma Zhishi, you are the two best young talents of Team Rocket in recent years, and I can finally meet you in person."

Sakaki, who looks serious and serious, speaks like a spring breeze.

Both Ming Zheng and Ma Zhishi bowed their heads slightly to show modesty, but they quickly lifted them up.

Sakaki looked at the two of them with admiration in his eyes.

He is not afraid of his subordinates being proud, conceited, and ambitious, and he even prefers the former to his subordinates.

Therefore, the corners of Sakaki's mouth floated, and he said directly: "Team Rocket has no stupid ideals, only realistic goals for themselves, their partners, and their families."

I have always practiced this principle, and I hope that all those who join the organization can get the strength, wealth, power, and even affection they want here! ”

There are no false great ideals, Sakaki is like his title of the king of the earth, everything is down-to-earth, and he does not engage in hypocrisy.

Ming Zheng couldn't help but recall the time when he was earning points little by little and exchanging resources.

If it weren't for the relationship with the Devon Group and the Yamanashi Research Institute by chance, I'm afraid he would have to rely on the platform of Team Rocket for a long time.

Even now, Gala Gala can sit firmly in the first combat power of the team, and its training manual is also a reward given to it by Boss Sakaki's hand.

Taking a deep breath, Ming Zheng tried to sober himself up a bit.

I have to say that Sakaki's words seem ordinary, but when they come out of his mouth, they are extremely inflammatory.

In just two sentences, Ming Zheng's favorability towards Team Rocket has risen more than a little.

Could it be that this is the spirit of the king?

Ming Zheng looked up and saw Ma Zhishi opposite, and the other party's eyes were already full of fire.

Obviously, it was only the first time they met, but he felt that following Sakaki must be the right decision, and the words just now seemed to be on the tip of his heart.

But Sakaki continued: "Everyone has a common goal, so naturally we should work together for a win-win situation."

You are excellent, outstanding, irreplaceable.

For you, I have something to give. ”

Here comes the point!

Both Mingzheng and Ma Zhishi were in good spirits.

As Sakaki said, isn't joining Team Rocket for the sake of power, power, and wealth?

Sakaki took the lead in looking at Ma Zhishi, and with a wave of his hand, Xia Bo had already walked over with a file bag.

"The Withered Leaf Gym was snatched from your father by the current hall owner, and now I will give you the opportunity to fight back, as long as you can defeat Neust, you will be the new Withered Leaf Gym owner!"

Newster, the current owner of the Withered Leaf Gym, is good at ...... Rock system!

The rocky ground is not separated, which is tantamount to a complete gram for Ma Zhishi, who uses the electric system, which is also a reason why Ma Zhishi's father lost back then.

Ma Zhishi took out the documents in the file bag, and his eyes turned red without looking at them twice.

These documents revealed the truth about the replacement of the owners of the Withered Leaf Gym back then, and Newster's position was obviously not so innocent.

As long as these materials are handed over to the Alliance, and then Ma Zhishi comes forward to defeat Newst head-on, and finally Sakaki operates from it, it will be easy to get the Gym back!

And it is clear that Sakaki can do everything, and then give the Dead Leaf Gym directly to Ma Zhishi.

But in the middle of this, he asked Ma Zhishi to defeat Newster by himself, just to untie his knot over the years.

This gift was really sent to Ma Zhishi's heart.

Ming Zheng was just a bystander, and he felt a little shocked, not to mention Ma Zhishi himself?

He learned more and more deeply that the reason why Team Rocket has grown so much is not for nothing.

So, what is Sakaki going to give himself?

"When you're ready, hand over the materials to the Alliance, and the Withered Leaf Gym needs you to take it back yourself."

"Yes! Chieftain! ”

Then, Sakaki turned his head to look at Akimasa.

Mingzheng didn't dodge or dodge, and Sakaki looked at each other, but his heart had already raised his throat.

The corners of Sakaki's mouth curled slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "I thought that the contradiction between you and Ziyuan Town was quite deep, and I wanted to see if I could help you solve it."

But now they are too busy to take care of themselves, and the anger of a dying man is terrifying, and those who do wrong things will eventually pay the price. ”

Ming Zheng subconsciously frowned, hearing this, something happened to the Ming and Ju families again?

However, when Sakaki said this, he turned around and handed over the old book that he had been holding in his hand.

"You are free by nature, seeking strength and freedom.

I can't help you with freedom, then I'll give you strength! ”

At this time, Ming Zheng also took the book and saw the five big characters on the shabby cover.

【The Mystery of the Earth】

Akimasa looked up and looked at Sakaki in disbelief.

Mystery, that is, the power of the heavenly king.

Although Ming Zheng has fantasized countless times, he has accumulated contributions little by little by completing the tasks of Team Rocket, and finally obtained the elf training manual after the quasi-heavenly king level.

But unexpectedly, Sakaki once again gave a big gift, a big gift that he couldn't refuse.

Obviously, he hasn't given anything to Team Rocket, but he has been given by Sakaki.

It is impossible for Akimasa not to repay his kindness, and Sakaki obviously knows this through various channels.

Therefore, the fierceness of the investment, Ming Zheng is a little overwhelmed.

"Boss, thank you!"

A thousand words, Ming Zheng could only say this sentence in the end.

Sakaki, why can't you be stingy?

If you give too much, your path will be too wide!

After giving the gift, Sakaki cared about the next plan of the two again.

Ming Zheng has nothing to hide, and made it clear that he will join the regional team and continue to get stronger.

And Ma Zhishi, no matter what he planned before, has now become a recapture of the Gym.

And once Ma Zhishi sits in the port city of Withered Leaf City, it will naturally be beneficial to Team Rocket.

Ming Zheng looked at the three people present, if you add Nazi, who is still pinching the doll, half of the Eight Avenue Pavilion in the Kanto region will be included in Team Rocket in the future.

Good guys, the Kanto League was directly changed to the Team Rocket League.

Witnessing this historic scene, Ming Zheng returned to his room with a surge of emotion.

He couldn't wait to open the [Mystery of the Earth], and then found that there was not much he could understand, and the description in it was more like for the elves.

In this case, Ming Zheng immediately called Gala Rata over.

"I'll read you, and if there's anything you don't understand, feel free to interrupt me."

"Ga~"

Gala Gala nodded, very tolerant of Mingzheng, and let it experiment on itself.

"The mystery of the earth is inclusive, in the vastness, in the overturning, in the abyss......"

In the clouds, I know every word alone, but I don't understand it when combined.

But Gala Gala was different, at first her eyes were open, and gradually she sat cross-legged on the ground, her body flickering with brown light, as if she was feeling something.

Ming Zheng looked strange, but he didn't forget his task, and continued to read slowly in a low voice.

After three times, the aura of Gala Gala was circulating, and after the ups and downs, it was so easy to break through to the intermediate level of the hall master, and the effect was immediate!

Ming Zheng looked at the low-key and restrained gala gala, and couldn't help but rub it for a while.

What about the intermediate level of the hall master, it's not for me to rub it.

Gala Gala lay in Mingzheng's arms, wanting to struggle but afraid of hurting Mingzheng.

Now that it's stronger again, even if it's a humanoid elf, it's hard to be a match for Gala Rata anymore.

"Ga~Gala~"

"Do you want to read it every day in the future? No problem! ”

This request, Ming Zheng naturally agreed.

The word Upanisham is still a little far away for them, but if they read it a hundred times, they may have an epiphany if they read it every day?

It was night, and the excited Ming Zheng forcibly fell asleep under the sleep powder of shuttlecock cotton, and took the elves to the dream world.

Daily training is the foundation for Ming Zheng and his partners to become stronger, and he never interrupts when there are no emergencies.

And compared with the power of dreams at the beginning, Mingzheng has also made a lot of progress.

Under the dream mark, even if they are far away in the Sinnoh region, they can also be photographed by Ming Zheng in the dream world after falling asleep.

In this way, no matter where the partners are, Mingzheng can meet everyone in the dream world every night.

As for the problem of needing to overeat in the morning, it is not difficult to hide more during the day.

The busy night passed quietly, and Ming Zheng got up on time and opened the curtains.

Said hello to Rondo's big rock snake again.

"Is Rondo here?"

"Woo~"

"Okay, I'll look for him later!"

Last night, Daigo left a message to pick him up this morning.

Ming Zheng didn't know many people in the alliance, and Rondo and Lingling were good friends.

After saying goodbye to the two of them one by one, Ming Zheng also came to the elf center of the headquarters and joined Daigo.

"Is there anything else important next?"

As soon as they met, Daigo asked straight to the point.

The corners of Mingzheng's mouth curled, and if he couldn't understand it anymore, the person in front of him was afraid that he was really going to be angry.

"Let's go to Dasha Valley first, there are no outsiders there."

Daigo raised his eyebrows, and he had a lot of questions in his heart, but in the end he didn't ask.

"Let's go."

Half an hour later, Akimasa and Daigo got on a private jet and flew straight to Dasha Valley.

On the plane, Akimasa saw Daigo's glittering metal monster for the first time.

Yes, his glittering iron dumbbells have also evolved, and his gorgeous silver light is no less than that of a metal monster

"Elite Senior! It's growing up too fast, isn't it? ”

Akimasa looked at Daigo's flashing iron dumbbells, and only felt that his teeth were sore.

Hearing this, Daigo vaguely hooked the corners of his mouth, and finally had a feeling of raising his eyebrows after so many days.

"Platinum palladium carbon, which can accelerate the growth of steel elves, dug a little bit some time ago."

Ming Zheng immediately looked at Daigo with a gleam in his eyes, and the meaning was self-evident.
