Pokemon Dawn

April 7th, eleven o'clock in the morning.

"This is a team. There is nothing unusual on the north side of Honglian Volcano."

"This is the second team. There is nothing unusual in the suburbs of Honglian City."

"This is the third team. There are no abnormalities in Honglian City."

After listening to the concise and clear report from his teammates, the silver-haired young man nodded slightly and said, "There is nothing abnormal on the south side of the volcano, please continue to monitor."

"yes!"

Since early morning, this team of twenty people has been scattered in every corner of Honglian Island, closely monitoring the movements of the island. Team Ayakawa is in the city, Team Suhai is in the suburbs, and Team Seiji, four

Free trainers and Xinghai monitor the most suspected volcanic area.

As the commander-in-chief, Hoshikai commands the three executive officers. The four members of Xiaoye followed Seiji's instructions and guarded the north side of the Red Lotus Volcano with the five members of Seiji's team, while Hoshikai alone was in charge of the south side.

No one doubts whether Xinghai alone can cover such a large area - it is natural for the country's cutting-edge force, a first-level investigator, to have abilities far beyond those of ordinary trainers.

Each team is equipped with an energy detector that looks like a wrist watch. Its detection range is quite large and its positioning is relatively accurate. The only drawback is that it is not sensitive enough - but the process of artificially creating the Phoenix King will definitely produce huge energy fluctuations.

It is just right to use such an instrument.

On the north side of Honglian Volcano, Xiaoye and his four Pokémon were hiding behind towering rocks, always paying attention to nearby movements.

The four of them are not in the same place as the original five members of Team Seiji, but they are only separated by more than ten meters. They are not completely dispersed - the execution department is good at team operations, and it will be detrimental to them if they are too dispersed.

Respond to future variables.

His eyes swept toward the dense jungle, and fluorescent green fonts danced in the upper right corner of Xiaoye's field of vision, quickly displaying the number of animals within nearly a hundred meters in the direction he was pointing.

The number of humans detected is still 0.

This function, which is comparable to an efficient scanner, comes from the windshields worn by members of the executive department. The completely black windshields look very ordinary, but they are actually quite amazing combat auxiliary equipment. A layer of data is superimposed on the field of vision.

The template is like an online game interface, with countless data and icons floating in the air in a translucent form - this made the four people who came into contact with the executive department's standard equipment for the first time couldn't help but marvel.

And it completely relies on the wearer's eye movements to complete the operation, and the method of use is simple and easy to understand. It can be said to be the most user-friendly equipment for combat. Range scanning is only one of its portable functions, and another commonly used function is

The sound transmission I just used.

The frame of the goggles is equipped with a miniature microphone. Unlike a mobile phone, it can be bound to the device channel of the team members in advance to complete quick calls during battle, saving the time of dialing.

None of the four members of Saya are expert in this high-tech field, so they can only praise the inventor, Mr. Daisuke Kurose, without any nourishment.

From six o'clock in the morning to now, five hours have passed, and there is still no movement on Honglian Island. Of course, for them, this is a great good thing.

There is still an hour left until the solar eclipse. It would be great if the day could end peacefully like this.

Seiji thought so in his heart.

However, the next second, a slight vibration on his wrist made him tense up suddenly.

"There is a high-energy reaction in the northwest! We are approaching, please avoid!"

Seiji's instructions came suddenly, but the four teammates around him reacted quickly. The team hiding behind the rocks quickly dispersed, and the sharp and terrifying wind blades had already fallen from the sky.

The hard rock was split from the middle, leaving a deep mark in the soil.

Whirlwind knife.

After dodging, the figure flying down from the sky on a Toucan made Seiji frown deeply.

For members of the four major armed branches of the alliance, it is a very familiar uniform - the letter r is the symbol of Team Rocket.

Team Rocket actually attacked? And...why do they know our location?

More than a dozen big-billed birds surrounded the five members of Seiji's team. The Pokémon that had been released immediately went on alert, while Seiji stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "Team Rocket, why are you..."

"Tornado Knife."

The cold words of the leader interrupted Seiji's upcoming question. All the big-billed birds used the same skills, and the sharp wind blades swept towards the five people in the center with an momentum that almost cut the space.

No intention to talk?

Seiji's eyes flashed coldly, and he clenched the high-end ball in his hand.

Well, it's not my style to talk nonsense before a fight.

Then let’s fight!

"What did you say?" The silver-haired young man on the south side of Honglian Volcano frowned immediately after receiving the report.

"We are currently fighting with them. The enemy has strong mobility and a numerical advantage, so it may be difficult to end the battle quickly." Seiji's voice was mixed with intermittent explosions.

"I understand, please concentrate on dealing with them."

After ending the contact from Seiji, Xinghai almost immediately thought of the same question as Seiji.

A team of more than ten people dispatched, carried out sneak attacks, and used unexplained attack methods - it was almost certain that Team Rocket had planned it in advance.

It’s not surprising that they would fight against the execution department in order to ensure the smooth progress of the artificial Ho-oh plan, but why would Team Rocket know the location of Seiji’s team? Is it a coincidence, or...

Before his thoughts could settle down, the same urgent voice sounded again.

"This is the second team. Report to the team leader that we were suddenly attacked by Team Rocket. There are fifteen enemy soldiers. We were unable to talk. I'm afraid it was premeditated!"

Xinghai tried hard to distinguish Suhai's voice from the noisy background sound, while the report continued.

"Since there are a small number of residential buildings nearby, we have already issued an evacuation signal and will do our best to prevent ordinary citizens from being affected."

"Received, please ensure the personal safety of citizens."

"yes!"

After receiving the instruction, Su Hai turned off the communication function and plunged into the fierce battle. But Xinghai had a vague premonition of something bad.

Since both Seiji-senpai and Su Hai were attacked, then...

Xinghai initiated a communication to Ayakawa Yoshiko, the captain of the third team stationed in the city. However, after calling several times in succession, there was still no sound from the other side.

Although Ayakawa is not too old, she has always acted prudently and rarely made mistakes. But now, she and her team members have collectively lost contact.

Two teams encountered the enemy and one team lost contact.

Make no mistake - information leaked.

Although the leakage route is still unclear, it is certain that Team Rocket must have mastered the tactical arrangements of Xinghai and others in advance to be able to grasp the information of each team so accurately.

This is really... the worst situation.

Xinghai is well aware of the importance of information in battles - after all, one of his colleagues is someone who is proficient in intelligence collection, and the Kanto Investigation Department has repeatedly seized the opportunity in battles because of his presence. Information leakage is equivalent to fighting

Already lost half of it in advance.

And there's even worse -

Xinghai is not in his best condition now.

As one of the seven first-level investigators in the Kanto region, Xinghai naturally has the strength to compete with the King of Heaven champions, and will not be easily defeated in any battle. However, now he only has half of the combat effectiveness.

The Miyuan bombing is far more difficult than most people imagine. Before coming to Red Lotus Island, Xinghai had been fighting unknown attackers on the outskirts of Miyuan City. Many of his main Pokémon were seriously injured.

The Dream Center is resting. Currently, there are only three animals that maintain 100% combat effectiveness.

Just to be on the safe side...

Xinghai took out his mobile phone. He clicked on the little bat-shaped social app, slid his finger on the screen, and switched to the group page.

====================

[Group: Canglong Teeth]

Tianlong 11:10:02

Everyone, how are you doing lately? :)

Tianlong 11:10:21

I'm in Honglian City now, is anyone around here?

Pitcher 11:10:55

Hello, captain╰(￣▽￣)╭

Guren City... Unfortunately, I am playing a game in the Hezhong area, so it is too far away from Kanto.

Pitcher 11:11:10

Ah, speaking of which, I live in the Orange Islands, so it should be very close to Honglian Island, right?

Shadow 11:11:17

Why are you in Honglian City?

====================

Xinghai was about to write a reply in the chat box, but the abnormal situation in the detection range made him immediately alert.

As he suddenly bounced away from the place, the destructive light from the distance hit his feet heavily. Amidst the explosion, chaotic gravel and dust rose up, polluting the fresh air in the mountain.

There is no human scent in my detection range. So... the attack came from a hundred meters away?

Realizing that the screen of the mobile phone in his hand had been hit by flying stones, Xinghai frowned and quickly expanded the detection range outwards while putting the phone back.

However, even if you don't do this, the enemy will have already appeared openly in front of Xinghai.

On the backs of more than a dozen big birds stood neatly the elite members of Team Rocket in gray. The leader was riding an armored bird, and his bright purple uniform stood out in the forest.

"We meet again, Lord Shenyu Xinghai." He grinned maliciously.

Information about this person, Swift Alva, a senior member of Team Rocket, flashed through Xinghai's mind.

Every member of the four major departments of the Rockets has always kept the information of the Rockets in mind, and for Xinghai, the face of this extremely destructive senior cadre is naturally familiar - not to mention, they have been there before.

Handed over.

"I'm asking you to give me some advice this time, okay?"

Although she spoke respectful words, both Swift's evil smile and her malicious murderous intent proved one thing——

They didn't come to negotiate peacefully.

Sure enough, he also found me here.

So...they're trying to hold us all back?

For the current situation of manpower shortage, war of attrition is indeed a weakness. However, if a so-called senior cadre can delay Xinghai for a long time——

Shenyu Xinghai is not worthy of being a first-level investigator in the Kanto region and a dragon messenger with championship-level strength.

"Come on, Kuailong."

The yellow dragon-shaped Pokémon let out an angry roar, intertwined with the unpleasant neighing of the armored bird, and spread throughout the forest.

The battle begins.
