This is an extra chapter because we hit 300 Power Stones.
Thank you all for helping me reach this far.

Although the submarine was destroyed, Team Rocket still had other means of retreat.
However, as he watched Cassidy and the Britch leave, Ash nor anybody in his group chose to pursue them. Instead, he looked at the sea area not far away and said, "Team Rocket, come out here or get shocked underwater!"
Under the surface of the sea, there was clearly a very crude Magikarp submarine, which was used by that trio of Team Rocket, as they were always right next to them.
At this time, when Ash called out to them, they floated up because of being afraid of being shocked again.
Jumping out of Magikarp's crown, Jessie was furious, "Listen here you twerp, we are not your servants, why are you still ordering us?"
Ash shook his head and ignored her protest, "Jessie, James, Meowth, follow your haters and find out what conspiracy Team Rocket has been cooking up while I wasn't not paying any attention to their shenanigans!"
Upon hearing this, Jessie and James stood at attention and saluted, calmly accepting Ash's order. In fact, this is what they originally planned to do even before they were found out by Ash.
"Go and report to me as soon as possible about their work here!" Ash threw a communicator to them! The same ones he used during the Entei incident.
The Rockets Trio quickly took the order and got ready. When it comes to infiltrating and being in disguise, they are very experienced in it even if they are not the best at it!
As soon as they left, another acquaintance came over to the group.
"Miss Luka, why are you here all of a sudden?" The person who came was Luka, the one who Ash helped find the Silver Wing left by her great grandfather. She seemed to have come here on a special trip, just like everyone here.
She opened the box hanging around her neck, and inside was the Silver Wing that they saved before, "I came here to find the answer to this, and then I talked to someone and they said that they saw some people coming here!"
Apparently she also heard about the mysterious Pokémon and her investigations led here on Ogi Isle. After coming close to finishing her investigate, she found out that mysterious Pokémon to be Lugia, the child now in Ash's arms!
This little guy was very cute when he nuzzles in Ash's arms for protection.
"Ash, why is he so close to you of all people?" Misty was a little envious, but she didn't know whether she was envious of Ash or Lugia.
Before Ash could answer, Brock thought of the answer, "It should be the Sea Souls blessing at the Whirl Cup competition that gave Ash the aura of being close to Lugia, that's why this guy and Ash are so close!"
Yes, this is the most indeed a reasonable explanation! The other is Ash is outwardly releasing a positive Aura towards the baby Lugia.
"For being a Lugia, it seems too small!" Brock then focused on little Lugia.
"It's still a child. I call him Silver. I picked the name up for him!" Oliver gently stroked Lugia's back and said, "It doesn't seem like he can fly yet. Please, don't tell anyone about Silver! Its best to keep him a secret from the rest of the world."
Everyone agreed on this as it was a great idea.
Oliver is also willing to trust them with this deep secret. After all, as a person who can make Lugia so close must not be a bad person!
Speaking of the meeting between Oliver and the little Lugia, it was also fate.
A few weeks ago, when Oliver and his Lanturn were playing at sea, they encountered a storm. It was the little Lugia who rescued them, so now he and his Lanturn has been responsible for protecting him and also playing with him.
Not only did he meet little Lugia, he also met Silver's mother!
"I think it's almost for her to pick up Silver!"
As soon as he finished speaking, waves suddenly broke out on the sea surface, and a big Lugia appeared in front of Ash and his party.
It looked at everyone with a vigilant look on its face, flew into the air with its huge wings spread out, made an intimidating gesture, and pressed towards Ash and his group with its powerful momentum!
"That's the mysterious Pokémon, Lugia?" Lugia's appearance shocked Ritchie, Brock and Luka the most. As they were the only ones that did not see a real Lugia before, other than the baby Lugia. Ash and Misty saw Lugia before in the Orange Islands and Oliver saw it before when taking care of Silver.
Molly was just vibing with the group.
The Silver Wing held tightly in Luka's hand is releasing a bright silver light!
"Pokémon with children are very wary of new people!" Ash can understand Lugia's emotions because she was a mother. His mom is also like this when he talks to her and how she says that he is always in danger!
However, Ash and his party behaved very calmly. Brock and Misty have become accustomed to facing legendary Pokémon. There is also a Suicune and Raikou in Ash's team, Ash also has a little Celebi sleeping around his neck!
But facing Lugia's momentum, Misty and Molly couldn't resist it and could only stand behind Ash for protection.
Ash protected the two girls behind him with a Aura Shield, he was also holding the little Lugia in his arms, and slowly stepped forward, "Lugia, don't worry, we are not bad people!"
The little Lugia in his arms was also shouting as hard as he could to calm down his mothers anger toward the unknown humans!
Then, a bright blue light flashed across Ash's body. This was not the power of the Aura, but the Blessing of the Sea Soul that played a role in this.
This is obviously a passive skill granted by the blessing.
A blue light also enveloped the mother Lugia, quickly calming it down form its anger. It folded its wings and landed in front of Ash. The two Lugia interacted intimately. The scene was very loving and heartwarming!
The bright silver light coming from Luka's Silver Wing also went out with Lugia's anger.
Ash patted the mother Lugia's neck gently, "Finally I see you with my own eyes, Lugia!"
The one from the Orange Islands doesn't really count since the one that saw it was the past Ash and not the current one.
"Lugia!"
Lugia's voice also seemed very cheerful and beautiful.
Just as Ash and his team were using Luka's diving devices to sneak into the sea and have fun with Lugia and her son, Jessie and James and Meowth also successfully sneaked into Team Rocket's experimental base.
They disguised themselves carefully and followed Cassidy and Birch to meet Dr. Namba.
"Dr. Rumba..."
This girl could never say a single name correctly!
"It's not Rumba, it's Namba you morons!"
Cassidy quickly changed her words, "I'm sorry, Dr. Mamba, I'm sorry, we let the Lugia child escape! We met a very strong Trainer!"
But Dr. Namba didn't care about her getting his name wrong this time, "It doesn't matter, we have determined that it is in this sea area anyway! We could hunt for him later!"
"The levels of Charizard and Feraligatr are not enough! In my Pokémon X Plan, I need to use Lugia! I want to maximize the power of those Pokémon's and create a new energy!"
"Baby Lugia captures Plan B, starting now, as for the strong ones you call..."
Dr. Namba did not finish speaking. Instead, he fell into deep thought and asked Cassidy and Batch to prepare!
Seeing that they couldn't find any useful information this time, Jessie and James quickly withdrew.
"I see, there are always some idiots who don't know the heights of the world, and they want to find some new powerful shortcuts and some plans to strengthen Pokémon!"
After hearing the report from Jessie and the others, Ash just scoffed. If he wants a powerful Pokémon, there is only one way, and they is to catch it, train it, and become stronger step by step with that Pokémon!
"Yes, you're right!" Jessie, James, and Meowth didn't understand Ash words, but since he said, he must be right. He is never wrong.
Ash was ready to bid farewell to the mother Lugia.
Because Lugia's power is too strong, she normally lives deep under the sea, and their main source of food is also located deep in the ocean. Now it is time to feed her son, so now she will return to the sea go gather food for their lunch.
"Don't worry about him, we will protect Silver with everything we got!" Ash said and then patted Lugia's neck.
Lugia nodded, glanced at little Lugia, and turned back to the sea!
