"How is the matter at Yumachi Wharf going?" Sitting in the Rockets' headquarters in the wilderness, in Giovanni's office, Giovanni asked his assistant while stroking Persian's head at his feet.
"Leader, please rest assured that the incident at Yumachi Wharf has not been discovered by the Alliance, and it has been covered up by Assist's hands, and everything is going smoothly," Assistant Matori said with a slight bow.
"Hmm..." Giovanni pondered for a while, then leaned back in the chair, looked up at the ceiling, his eyes became deeper. He truly didn't expect that that seemingly useless combination could actually find such a significant thing.
A super-huge Pokémon, and it was also a Dragonite, which could easily destroy a cliff with a simple blow. Even if its strength didn't reach the legendary God's Domain, it should at least have legendary-level power.
Thinking of this, Giovanni's gaze became a little hotter, but it quickly disappeared because he hadn't yet found the giant Dragonite, which was a pity.
Inspired by this, Giovanni believed that since there was a giant Dragonite, why couldn't there be a giant Persian, a giant Oddish, and a giant Goldeen?
Ever since, Giovanni asked the science department to set up a project to start researching this aspect, and the research location naturally had to be a place not easily discovered by the Alliance.
Giovanni chose the Blue Pool!
Selecting a spokesperson meant building a luxury hotel on the sea, but in fact, secretly building a research room for research. This was Giovanni's goal.
"How is the other plan going?" After a short pause, Giovanni asked again. The other plan was the most important; once successful, the world would be conquered by him!
"Some personnel have already infiltrated Silph Co., and it is estimated that in about a week, we will be able to control Silph Co. in one fell swoop!" Makoto pushed his glasses, and the lenses reflected slightly under the light.
"Increase the speed as much as possible. Although I have temporarily stabilized the artificial Pokémon, it won't work if we don't have the hand to control it," Giovanni tapped his fingers on the armrest.
"Understood, we will try our best to speed up!" Matori looked serious and responded earnestly.
"Then, you may leave..." Giovanni waved Matori away.
Matori didn't say much, and after bowing slightly to Giovanni, he left Giovanni's office.
In the office, only Giovanni and Persian remained, but Persian didn't dare to make any noise.
"Mother...your dream, I will definitely realize it!" Giovanni turned the chair, facing the wall behind him, on which hung a portrait of a Chinese woman.
Although it was only a portrait, it exuded a powerful aura. This was Giovanni's mother, the founder of the Rockets!
The beauty pageant was over, and Ash and Misty returned to the Pokémon Center and found Brock. His condition was a bit strange at this time, as he would show some odd smiles from time to time.
Brock felt truly happy. Due to the crowd, he had accidentally stumbled into the auditorium and fallen in front of an empty seat.
The original seat's owner had bought a ticket but didn't show up. So, unnoticed, Brock occupied the seat and watched the beauty pageant up close. He didn't even leave for lunch and wasn't questioned about his ticket when he returned.
Those long legs, those ample curves... Brock felt like he was in heaven, surrounded by beautiful women. If it weren't for the end of the pageant, he wouldn't have wanted to leave.
After learning about Brock's experience, Ash shook his head in disbelief. He hadn't expected Brock's luck to be so good. After all, he had protected Misty all day, standing for the entire duration.
Early the next morning, after their usual morning exercise, Ash and his group left the Pokémon Center and headed to Yumachi Wharf, where they planned to take a boat to Maiden's Peak.
Since there weren't many ferries to Maiden's Peak, the next one wasn't until the afternoon. Ash and his party could only wait near Yumachi Wharf and find a place to rest.
"I should have inquired about the schedule earlier," Ash said, sitting on a bench on the harbor embankment, looking at the seemingly endless sea ahead.
Ash wasn't complaining but reminding himself to be better prepared in the future to avoid wasting time.
Brock and Misty agreed, and the waiting time was indeed boring. Pikachu, nestled in Ash's arms, couldn't help but yawn widely.
Seemingly infected by Pikachu, Ash also yawned, followed by Misty, and finally, even Brock couldn't resist yawning
"Should we just wait here until the afternoon? It's better to go shopping nearby! It's really boring!" Misty couldn't bear such a boring situation, so she suggested to the others.
"I also think it's silly to wait like this, Brock, what about you?" Ash nodded, then looked at Brock.
"Let's go, let's go shopping nearby." Brock didn't object, so the three of them put their backpacks back on and walked along the guardrail of the embankment, watching while admiring the sea.
Also, see what places you can find to pass the time.
"The scenery was pretty good at first, but after seeing the building under construction, I felt the atmosphere was completely destroyed." Seeing the hotel under construction not far away, Misty complained, a little unhappy.
"There is no way. They have money, they took the land over there, and they are free to build whatever they want." Brock explained.
Ash also took a look at that place and ignored it. Anyway, he had been staying in Rampur for two or three days, and there hadn't been any accidents. It seemed that the events in the original book wouldn't happen.
"Look!" Just as Ash was thinking this, Misty suddenly grabbed Ash and pointed to the sea. Below the embankment, a Horsea had emerged!
"This Horsea is injured!" Brock also looked over and found that something was wrong with Horsea, so he immediately said, "Fortunately, the injury isn't serious, it looks like just some skin trauma. As long as it is treated briefly and rested for a while, it'll be fine."
"Horsea...." Seeing Horsea's appearance, Ash was slightly taken aback, and his expression changed slightly. Could it be that what happened in the anime was also happening in reality?
In the anime, a Horsea appeared to warn humans. Ash didn't know if it was this Horsea, but it was indeed a coincidence that it appeared at this moment...
