Chapter 548 Giant Shark King
Zygarde, one of the legendary Pokémon of the Kalos region, possesses the power to balance Xerneas and Ephyral, and is responsible for inspecting and protecting the entire world's environmental ecology.
But unlike other legendary Pokémon, Zygarde's body has long been broken into pieces and scattered everywhere in the form of Zygarde cells. Only by collecting all the Zygarde cells can this legendary Pokémon truly see the light of day again.
The Zygarde Polyhedron is a special device used to collect Zygarde cells.
Obviously, Dr. Blatano wanted to hand over the design drawings to Cocobul in Sala City and ask this senior strong man to complete the Zygarde Polyhedron.
"I didn't expect that Dr. Bratano could even come up with this thing. It seems that it was the right decision for me to volunteer to take on this commission." Yang Ming thought to himself.
The reason why Dr. Blatano dared to hand over the design drawings of the Zygarde Polyhedron to others with confidence was because this thing was useless to ordinary trainers. Ordinary trainers simply did not have the financial resources to manufacture the Zygarde Polyhedron. Even if they did, they did not have the ability to collect the Zygarde cells scattered around the world.
But Yang Ming is an exception. As a new cadre of the Rockets, Yang Ming is rich, powerful, and even has loyal followers. Now that the design drawings have fallen into his hands, it is equivalent to creating an excellent opportunity for him to obtain Zygard.
Thinking of this, Yang Ming took a photo of the design drawing and planned to start making the Zygarde Polyhedron after returning to Alola.
As for the original drawings, Yang Ming planned to deliver them to Cocobul according to the original agreement.
On the one hand, it is naturally because of his personal principles. Since Dr. Bratano gave him the super ring inlaid with the key stone, Yang Ming will naturally keep his promise and complete his commission.
On the other hand, handing the drawings to Cocobul will not affect Yang Ming's own plans.
Although Dr. Blatano is a genius, he is only a doctor after all, and the human and financial resources at his disposal are not enough to support him in collecting Zygarde cells; and Cocobul, as an old-school strong man, is also responsible for guarding the "Refining Tower" and has no energy to participate in it.
As for Team Flare, although they are also looking for clues about Zygarde, they do not have the corresponding intelligence and technical capabilities, so failure is inevitable.
As a time traveler, Yang Ming met all the conditions to obtain Zygarde.
As long as his own interests are not threatened, Yang Ming is still happy to be a gentleman.
After taking back the design drawings, Yang Ming opened the disk that Kuselowski gave him.
As he had guessed, the disk contained a structural diagram of the entire underground black market. The diagram showed the purpose of each area and some hidden passages. Even the configuration and shift schedules of the guards in the black market were marked in detail. It could be seen that Kuselowski had invested a lot of money in order to occupy the black market.
However, Yang Ming did not immediately believe this structural map, but took out another map for comparison.
This drawing is an underground black market map that Yang Ming commissioned Alex to purchase. This kind of map can be found everywhere in the black market. It is only used to find ways in the underground black market. Naturally, its accuracy is far less than that of Kuselowski's, and it does not mark the internal structure and hidden passages.
Yang Ming carefully compared the two maps and found that their general outlines were the same. It seemed that the map given by Kuselowski was highly credible.
But even so, Yang Ming still does not fully trust the Flash Team.
"No matter how powerful the Miare Gang is, it is just a local organization that runs rampant around Miare City. It is not difficult to eliminate them with the strength of the Flash Team. Why would they specially seek cooperation from me?" Yang Ming thought to himself.
He guessed that there were only two possibilities as to why Kuserowski would seek cooperation with him: one was that the Flare Team concealed some important information, and the other was that there was a problem within the Flare Team, forcing them to choose only to cooperate with an outsider like him.
"But no matter what, this cooperation must go on, and I must get the Kairos Evolution Stone." Yang Ming clenched his fists and began to prepare for tomorrow's action.
"According to Kuseloski's intelligence, the leader of the Miare gang is not in the black market at the moment. The people in charge are three elite leaders." Yang Ming said to himself.
This was a godsend opportunity. Without the presence of a quasi-king, their plan had lost a major obstacle. Although the three elites were not weak at ordinary times, they were not worth mentioning to Yang Ming now.
The only thing to note is that these three bosses all hold the kind of "strength potion" that can temporarily strengthen Pokémon. Unlike the "low-end goods" sold casually on the black market, these "high-end goods" have a very strong effect on increasing the power of Pokémon, allowing elite Pokémon to increase their power rapidly in a short period of time, temporarily reaching the strength of a quasi-king level.
Of course, the Pokémon will die soon after the drug takes effect, and they will not use "strength agents" on the Pokémon they have worked hard to cultivate unless they have no other choice.
In response to this, Yang Ming and Kuseloski had already discussed a countermeasure: first, Yang Ming, an outsider, would participate in the most popular "underground death match" in the black market as an underground duelist, and attract the three leaders through his superior performance. Kuseloski would take the opportunity to lead the Flash Team into the black market and catch the other side off guard, while Yang Ming would take the opportunity to suddenly shoot and kill the three people before the other side used the strength agent.
Of course, this was the version that Yang Ming "discussed" when he and Kuseloski were working together. Since he did not fully trust Kuseloski now, Yang Ming did not want to implement the entire plan honestly. He only planned to implement the first half first. As for the second half of the plan, it depends on the changes in the situation and whether the Flash Team betrayed him.
"But no matter what, participating in underground competitions is an essential part of the entire plan." Yang Ming had participated in underground duel competitions in the local black market as early as the Manjin City period, so he was quite familiar with it.
It was just that because his previous identity as "Cave Sky Rat King" had already made him quite famous in the underground dueling world, in order to prevent someone from finding out, Yang Ming did not plan to use this fake identity anymore.
"I can't use the fake name Qionggui anymore, because not only Xiaozhi and Serena have seen me, but even Korni and Dr. Blatano know this name. If I use this identity to participate in underground fights, it will be easy for someone with ulterior motives to dig out my background." Yang Ming thought to himself.
Finally, he decided to forge a new identity.
Yang Ming opened the Rockets gear and wanted to exchange a small amount of points for a human skin mask.
"If I want to conceal my identity, a human skin mask is the best choice, but I want to make a big fuss this time, so I need something more exaggerated and eye-catching."
In the end, he used ten points to exchange for a Magikarp headgear. This headgear was very eye-catching and attracted people's attention wherever he went.
"I've also thought of a new identity. Let's call myself 'Giant Shark King'." Yang Ming muttered to himself with a meaningful smile on his face. "I believe this identity will definitely give everyone in the black market an unexpected surprise."
