Pokémon: Rise of Evil

Chapter 405 Xi Jiana

From what Daigo said, we can infer that he already knew that Team Inazuma had been operating in secret. No wonder the eradication of the nobles in the major central cities went so smoothly.

Thinking of this, Shota stretched out his hand.

Seeing this, Daigo also stretched out his hand, and finally the two of them held hands tightly together.

After a while, the two hands separated and Shota spoke:

"So now let's talk about the military setup."

Hearing about the military setup, Daigo frowned deeply. He crossed his hands to support his chin and said seriously:

"To be honest, the negotiation result you brought about in the end was beyond my expectation. It's not that you did a bad job, but you can say that you have saved Hoenn. I can't imagine a better result than this negotiation.

However, we are still held back by the hidden enemy. The substantial reduction in the military means a lot of things, not only in terms of the ability to resist foreign enemies, but also in many aspects such as the people's ideology.

Having no sword to use and having a sword but not using it are not the same thing.

Just the day before yesterday, the Kanto region and the Johto region sent representatives to sign an agreement with us.

If the agreement is violated, the Hoenn region will once again be ravaged by war, which is something we do not want to see.

However, we certainly cannot follow the agreement, otherwise it would be tantamount to sowing the seeds of a huge disaster that might erupt one day.

I thought about secretly training an army, but with the huge data flow in the Hoenn region, someone would definitely notice something in terms of food, population flow, etc.

Once it is exposed, it will not only be the consequence of the revelation of the evil, but the old foxes on the pyramid will unite and try their best to completely trample the now greatly changed Hoenn under their feet.

By then, we will never be able to recover.”

Listening to Daigo's step-by-step analysis, it all comes down to the issue of military setup. Since it cannot be set up secretly, then it must be set up openly, but it requires a certain degree of concealment.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Shota's lips. He said a lot of things to Daigo, and at the end, an undisguised evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Seeing Shota's smile, Daigo also smiled, and smiled very happily.

"Shota, you're really a genius. You can actually come up with this idea."

In response to Daigo's praise, Shota just shook his head and said:

"I didn't come up with this idea. I just copied it."

Listening to what Shota said, Daigo just felt that he was being modest, but he didn't ask any more questions.

Seeing Shota getting up and about to leave, Daigo seemed to have thought of something. He stopped Shota and said:

"Shota, my researchers recently discovered something very important. However, you should know that you have the giant bee that can evolve again.

Shota, I always feel like there's a fog around you that makes it hard for me to see you clearly, but you're always thinking about the peace and prosperity of Hoenn.

So, I firmly believe in you, and please don't let me down."

After listening to what Daigo said, Shota turned around, nodded at him, and then wanted to use teleportation to leave, but Daigo stopped him again.

"Oh, by the way, how should I put it? I've been in some trouble lately, or rather, the trouble left by my parents.

I should have told you before that my father, Zifuchi Hibiscus, not only secretly developed an army in order to win this war, but also reached an agreement with the old foxes in other regions. But there is one thing I didn't tell you, that he once accepted the invitation of the Pokémon Association and participated in the plan to capture Rayquaza.

The research on mega evolution was also started during this process. I was surprised when I saw that your Beedrill could mega evolve. What surprised me even more was that it could mega evolve without a Key Stone or a Super Stone.

That's why I asked you about this technique, but you told me that this kind of evolution can be achieved as long as there is a deep bond between the Pokémon and the Trainer.

So, I tried it with my Metagross, and found that nothing changed.

But thinking back, the girl in the videotape was carrying something called a key stone when she was super evolving.

So, I also took this so-called key stone, and also equipped Metagross with the super stone. "

As he spoke, Daigo took out a collar pin with a key stone inlaid on it from his bosom, and then he continued:

"As expected, under the influence of some force, my Metagross evolved once again, but the super-evolved state could not be maintained for too long. Later, the time gradually began to increase, but it could not maintain this state forever.

In other words, it has a time limit. If I'm not mistaken, this may be the regression of Pokémon, but the current environment has affected them, causing them to be unable to maintain this state all the time.

And if you think about it more deeply, maybe in ancient times, humans and Pokémon had already established some kind of connection, which is what you call a bond, so today there is the so-called super evolution."

Listening to Daigo's well-reasoned analysis, Shota didn't care much about it, because he already knew about some settings about Pokémon in his previous life.

However, Shota still clapped symbolically to show his agreement with Daigo's idea.

Listening to Shota's applause and the somewhat perfunctory expression on his face, Daigo always felt that the guy in front of him seemed like, well, he should have known it a long time ago.

Thinking of this, Daigo suddenly felt like a clown.

But Daigo didn't care much about this, he just wanted to express his thoughts, and in his eyes, Shota was already a partner. To put it simply, it was a brotherly relationship between people of the lower class. In short, they were very close, so what he said just now was not shameful.

After comforting himself, Daigo continued:

"After talking so much, it seems that we have strayed off topic. Let's get back to the point.

During the process of capturing Rayquaza, the Pokémon Association was careless, or they simply didn't care. In short, according to my investigation, a girl named Shijiana died during this capture process.

Remember that girl in the video I was talking about earlier? That’s her.”
