Chapter 515: Alola Region Branch Chief
"Is this the only super ancient Pokémon?" Yang Ming asked anxiously.
Sarah replied: "We only found one Pokémon like this here, but Lord Vio didn't seem satisfied with the result and sent other people to look for similar fossils. As for the final result, I'm not sure..."
Yang Ming frowned. A single Genesect couldn't satisfy Team Plasma. Did they want to create an army composed entirely of legendary Pokémon?
"Miss Sarah, do you want to be free again?" After a while, Yang Ming suddenly asked, "I am the highest leader of this city. As long as I want, I can release you at any time and return all your Pokémon to you, but there is a price to pay. Do you understand what I mean?"
Sarah's eyes lit up for a moment, but then she felt a little uneasy. Since the young man in front of her wanted to release his Pokémon, the "price" she would have to pay might not be small.
"My conditions are actually very simple," Yang Ming said, "I want you to be mine."
"Ah?!" Sarah's face suddenly turned red and she shrank back involuntarily.
"It's not what you think," Yang Ming quickly explained, "I'm not asking you to leave Team Plasma and join Team Rocket. On the contrary, I hope you return to Unova and look for an opportunity to reconnect with your superiors."
"You may not know the current situation. Since the battle of Paulownia Forest, our Team Rocket has won a great victory and occupied the entire Johto region. And your Team Plasma has become a street rat after the war. Under the double attack of Team Rocket and the Alliance, you dare not show up at all."
"In other words, you have been abandoned by them."
Of course, Yang Ming’s statement was somewhat exaggerated, but this was also to shake Sarah’s heart so that she could use it for his own benefit.
Seeing that the other party was already wavering, Yang Ming quickly struck while the iron was hot: "My Plasma Team will not let go of the family of the betrayer, so I will not ask you to join Team Rocket. On the contrary, I will keep the secret for you. No one except you and me will know about our relationship."
Sarah bit her lip and thought for a long time, then slowly raised her head: “Then what do you need me to do?”
Knowing that the other party had agreed to his conditions, Yang Ming smiled slightly: "It's very simple. At present, Team Plasma is far away from Unova and will not come back for a while, so you don't have to do anything now. Just live in Unova as an ordinary trainer."
"After Team Plasma returns to Unova, your superior will definitely come back to contact you, and then you can contact me."
After that, Yang Ming threw a communicator to her: "Keep this thing, and keep in touch with me through a single line from now on."
Late that night, the prison cell of the Manjin branch suddenly exploded, and a young female prisoner named Sarah escaped from the cell, and her four Pokémon disappeared with her.
Yang Ming, the director of the Manjin City branch, was furious and personally led his men to search the city, but after several days, he found nothing.
"I don't know if this idle move can work..." At this moment, Yang Ming was leaning on the sofa in the office with his eyes closed. Obviously, Sarah's "escape" was not an accident, but his handiwork.
There was also a Poké Ball in the drawer of the office, which contained a Hairy Horned Sheep. This was Sarah's Pokémon. During the battle in the Paulownia Forest, Yang Ming saw that Sarah had the deepest feelings for it, so he kept it.
"I will take care of it for you during this time, and I will return it to you when we have fulfilled our promise."
After all, Yang Ming and Sarah have only met twice, and it is impossible for them to completely trust each other, so they still need to leave such a "hostage".
The reason why he chose Sarah as his insider was, on the one hand, because Team Plasma posed a huge threat to Team Rocket, and on the other hand, it was for Fenglu's personal safety.
Feng Lu will return to Unova sooner or later to be the gym leader. Although Team Plasma has evacuated Unova, she will not have any safety issues if she returns now. However, considering Team Plasma's great ambition, Yang Ming decided to place an eye in Unova to ensure that nothing he did not want to see would happen.
At this moment, he received a contact from Apollo, but it was not about Chakra, but about his personnel appointment.
"What? The organization wants me to be the head of the Alola branch?!"
Yang Ming was shocked. The branch chief was a very powerful position in Team Rocket, responsible for managing all branches and contact stations in a region. Bixias, who had launched the rebellion before, was the branch chief of the Johto region.
A seventh-level cadre like him would never have gotten such a lucrative job. According to Apollo, the organization gave him such an important position because of his outstanding performance in Johto.
However, Yang Ming was very clear that the Rockets had almost no foundation in the Alola region, and his appointment as the branch chief meant that he would need to start all over again to conquer the territory.
This might be difficult for other people, but for someone like him who has a deep relationship with the King of the Island...
"Okay, I'll take on this position," Yang Ming agreed without hesitation, "but I won't leave until the chakra is processed."
This is him making his attitude clear to the organization. He will never accept new missions unless his chakra is processed.
Apollo didn't seem surprised by Yang Ming's attitude. He said that he would help Yang Ming find out the outcome of the matter, and then he hung up the phone.
"The Alola region... it really is a place where opportunities and challenges coexist."
The Alola region is not only rich in resources, but also very close to Kalos and Hoenn. If Yang Ming wants to obtain the Z-pure crystals and mega stones he needs, he has to visit all three regions.
"After we get to Alola, let's go to Kalos and Hoenn. I have old friends there..."
"Really? Yang Ming took over the position very straightforwardly."
After listening to Apollo's report, there was no change on Sakaki's face.
"But he requested to take up his post in Alola only after he had punished Chakra," Apollo added in a low voice.
"This is human nature. You go tell him. I will give him an explanation for this matter in the end." Sakaki stood up. "That's it for the Alola branch. Apollo, it's time to go meet our 'senior'."
Apollo bowed and said yes, and then the two of them took the elevator to the bottom floor of the headquarters.
This is the area where Team Rocket holds dangerous enemies, and a room at the deepest end is decorated very elegantly, as if it were used to entertain VIPs.
Sakaki and Apollo walked into the room and saw a hunched white-haired old man sitting on a chair. He was the leader of Kaji Gym, an old powerful man who once joined forces with Bixias, Liu Bo of the Cold Winter.
