Krishna was overwhelmed by many emotions. Gratitude, Sadness, sorrow, and respect. He didn't know that Blue had been observing and thinking about him for such a long time. He deeply bowed his head and said, "Thank you."
The team already knew of his departure and also prepared some farewell gifts for him. Krishna was thankful for them. He said goodbye and then went with Axel.
All of them went to a restaurant to get some food. Axel formally welcomed Krishna as one of his lieutenants and also told him most of the things about his mercenary team.
Krishna realized that the mercenary team was not even built right now but he was happy about it. He could see its rise from the beginning. Krishna was absolutely confident in Axel and knew that this mercenary team would someday become one of the most powerful organizations in the whole world.
"So, how are the hierarchy of our organization?", asked Krishna.
"Ahh, actually, the proper hierarchy has still not been established. I was thinking of doing it after the team was officially registered. However, it is now taking a long time.", said Axel.
He had lots of things to do for the mercenary team. Hector had been doing a fine job but there were also sometimes that he would be personally needed and since he had been so busy with so many things, it had been postponed.
Axel gave a brief description of the mercenary team to Krishna and also told him about the problem that they were facing. At that time, Krishna said,
"Axel, why don't you talk to Latias about this building issue?"
They had already a big land for their base but they had to create buildings on it to call them a 'Base'. However, building a building was not an easy task. Hector, Ashmita, and Dory had been racking their brains on the headquarters of the base but it was taking a bit more time than they had expected.
"What do you mean?"
"Latias is a psychic type Pokemon. It could make a headquarters building for you in no time. It is a god after all. And as per the rules of the league, you only need a headquarters building and a place where 50k of the members would fit to call it a base. So, if we are able to make this headquarters and place where all the members could fit, then we will fulfill the requirement."
"Wow!! I have never even thought of it. You did a good job Krishna.", said Axel patting his back.
Of course, he was not thinking about Latias to ask for help. There was a huge risk involved for it to come here. But there was another Pokemon that was even more awesome and powerful for the job. He just would have to convince it.
They still had a month left, so he was not worried about time.
"So, what will we do now?", asked Krishna.
"First, we will go to Dollarbeg city."
"Why would we go there?", asked Krishna.
"You have not met my full team, Krishna. It is now time for you to meet some of them.", said Axel with a smile.
###
Axel was going to Dollarbeg City to meet and reunite with Beedrill and Alakazam. Beedrill wanted to live there for some time to figure out something. So, he also told Alakazam to stay there, just for protection.
He wanted to go there first but he didn't and instead invited Blue and his team to Violet City. This was done for 2 reasons.
First, Dollarbeg City was close to Violet City and they would reach there in a day. Secondly, there was a secret in Dollarbeg City that he didn't want others to know.
"So, what is the secret?", asked Krishna, clearly interested in it.
"There is a Pokemon park there and inside the park, I found something interesting. ....."
Axel then told the story of a mysterious pond.
"Wow, I didn't know that such a thing existed in the middle of a city. So, you are planning to buy it?"
"Of course, but the process is very long. The park belongs to the government, and I would have to get approval first. Of course, I could directly ask the king now but contacting the King for such a simple thing is not right.", said Axel.
"Hm... I think we can't take this thing slow.", said Krishna.
"Why is that?"
"You are paying a huge sum of money for such a normal park. If you extend it, the people would start to suspect you and might also try to find out and we cannot have that. So, I think that we should deal with this as fast as we can.", said Krishna.
Krishna was not wrong. There was a high chance that someone would suspect his precious pond. He might have rushed it.
Tirng.. Tring.. Tring.. Tring...

"Oh hello, Axel boy. So you finally remembered me, huh?"
"Sorry Angela, I was just so busy with all the new things and then Tide."
"So, what do you need from me?"
"Can't I just call to see how you are doing?"
"And you think I would believe your lie? Just tell me what you need. I don't have much time. I am busy since you, the elder of training young ones, finance and management have not shown up for almost a year now."
Axel felt that someone had stabbed on his chest. He really had neglected Venu family but he had been very busy. But it was true that he was an elder and he had some responsibilities to the family. He had decided that after meeting with Beedrill and then Kate, he would go to Venu family to meet with Angela and others.
"I need to buy a public park in Dollarbeg City and I need to do it fast. I have tried to talk to the authorities but it is taking a lot of time."
"Why don't you talk to the King himself?"
"Well, I don't want to bother the King on such a small thing. The King might also suspect something since I am trying to buy it so fast."
"So, why are you trying to buy it so fast?"
Axel then began to tell the story of what he had found in the park.
"Don't worry, I will share anything that I find there.", said Axel.
This was the thing that she loved about Axel. Every time she met him, he would always be talking about some invention or something that would bring a positive change to the family. Axel was a golden Torchick and she was glad that he was a part of the family.
"Don't worry, I will get it done in a day. You better share what is in there and come to the family when you have time.", said Angela and hung off the phone.
Angela was the leader of one of the starter families in the Kanto region. The starter families were given a huge priority so she had a lot of influence in politics and government too. Axel had done a good job contacting her.
"So, what do you want to do, leader?"
"We will go to Dollarbeg. I have already booked our tickets for the evening."
"It might take Angela some time to get the approval. Why are you hurrying?", asked Krishna because they could reach Dollarbeg in half a day.
"Oh, I just want to meet my Pokemons.", said Axel with a smile.

Axel was finally going to meet Beedrill and Alakazam. It took half a day to reach Dollarbeg city and Axel didn't rest. He was not feeling good from the plane travel, but he wanted to meet Beedrill and Alakazam.
Axel could see their progress in the system but he had deliberately not seen them and hidden them as he wanted to see with his eyes. He knew there were some notifications about both Beedrill and Alakazam and he wanted to see them in front of his own eyes.
As they reached the Pokemon park, they were led inside. The park was very big as it was connected to a small forest. Axel had been told some of the Pokemons were a bit powerful and they had also reached King rank. But these Pokemons were not a problem for Beedrill and Alakazam.
As soon as he went near to the entrance of the forest, he could hear that someone was coming towards them at a rapid speed. He could tell that those were Beedrill and Alakazam.
Axel had now trained a lot in his aura powers especially in aura sense and he could tell that they were stronger than before. How could they become stronger in just a month? It was a mystery that he wanted to know as when a Pokemon reaches king rank, their progress would take a nose dive and would be very slow.
"Axel, you have finally returned.", said Alakazam as it was hovering in the air while Beedrill was next to it.
"Yes, it took some time. Sorry for the delay.", said Axel.
"So, what happened? Who was Serena? Did you meet her?", asked Alakazam as it was interested in that topic. It also wanted to go as it believed that there was a powerful psychic type Pokemon on that island but it also had to protect Beedrill.
"Don't worry, I will tell you the whole story some other day. First, tell me what happened. Both of you look like you have improved a lot.", said Axel with a smile.
"Hahaha, Beedrill did his magic. You will have to see to know. Come with us.", said Alakazam as it teleported Axel, Jin, Frank, and Krishna deep into the forest.
Krishna was so shocked by looking at Beedrill that he had not even spoken a word. This Beedrill was very strong, was very tall and it was a shiny Pokemon. Axel was very lucky.
Immediately the scene changed and they arrived into the forest. However, here, there were no trees. It was plain and filled with grass. The trees of the forest surrounded this clear plain glass field and the place was very big.
However, that was not the thing that surprised Axel. The thing that surprised Axel was an army of Beedrill that was standing in front of them. All of them were staring at Beedrill with respect. It looked like Beedrill became the general of this army.
"What is this?", asked Krishna as he was also surprised by this scene.
This time Axel felt compelled to see the notifications of the system.

There were a lot of notifications of Beedrill and it mastering some of the crucial moves. However, the thing that interested him a lot was the new move that it had learned.
---
The Army: Beedrill can summon the army of Beedrill that wants to fight for its glory. As of right now, it can only summon 10 of them and they can only be summoned for 10 minutes. Once the time is complete, they will be returned to their original place.

"What the fuck?", shouted Axel as he just could not believe what was happening.
