Chapter 27 - 27: Team Rocket & Moonstone

"Who are you? Why do you want to hurt Clefairy?" Seymour asked Meowth angrily.

"Since you've asked so sincerely!"

We will be merciful and tell you! "

"PREPARE FOR TROUBLE!"

"MAKE IT DOUBLE!" 

"To protect the world from devastation!"

"To unite all people within our nation!"

"To denounce the evils of truth & love!"

"To extend our reach to the stars above!"

"JESSIE!".

"AND JAMES!"

"TEAM ROCKET blasts off at the SPEED OF LIGHT!"

"Surrender now or prepare to Fight!"

"MEOWTH, THAT'S RIGHT!"

Just as Seymour finished speaking, a man with short blue hair and a woman with long red hair stood behind Meowth. They pretended to be noble and courteous as they introduced themselves.

On the front of their clothes was the Team Rocket logo. Seeing the logo, Ash's eyes flashed. Even Ash himself didn't realize that in the moment he was angry, a red murderous aura flashed through Ash's optic nerves.

Speaking of which, Ash and Team Rocket were irreconcilable. Whether it was the things they did or his mother and grandmother, they had all been threatened by Team Rocket. Unfortunately, Team Rocket was a huge organization. At present, Ash didn't have any effective way to uproot them.

Almost every region had an organization like Team Rocket, and the regional Leagues were their opponents. Every regional League was organized by people from different regions. In other words, the relationship between the leaders of the two regional Leagues wasn't necessarily good. Sometimes, there would even be competition for benefits.

Ash knew the two people and Meowth very well. The three of them weren't bad people, but they each had their own goals. Jessie was an orphan who had no one to take care of her since she was young. She was even bullied, so she went astray. In fact, she also had the dream of becoming a star.

James, on the other hand, was the heir of a big family in Kanto. Unfortunately, his parents didn't care for him for many years, causing him to be especially lonely. Coupled with his fiancée's dominatrix personality, James had hit rock bottom in his life. From then on, he went astray.

As for Meowth, it was even simpler. For a female Meowth he liked, he specially learned human language and movements. In the end, he was ruthlessly humiliated and went astray.

Just like that, these three people who weren't bad by nature went astray. They did bad things, but they didn't cause any big problems. At most, they stole machines and money. Although they also stole Pokémon, they never succeeded.

"I know! the tunnel behind this cave was destroyed by you guys, right?!" Looking at the appearance of Jessie and James, Seymour immediately thought of the silhouette of the person who destroyed the tunnel before. It was very similar to these two people!

"Do you know how much damage your actions will cause to the Pokémon of Mt. Moon?"

"Who cares about that? We only have one goal, and that is to find the largest Moon Meteorite!" Jessie said indifferently when she heard Brock's harsh words.

"Help me tell Giovanni that when I collect seven Gemstone Gym Badges, I will go find him. Tell him to get ready, because I am coming for his head." Looking at the three people of Team Rocket, Ash said calmly.

These three people weren't the higher-ups of Team Rocket. At most, they were outer members, referred to as cannon fodder.

"Pikachu!" Hearing Ash's words, Pikachu, who was on his shoulder, also jumped in front of Ash. Electric current still appeared on his cheeks. He believed that as long as Ash gave the order, these three people would immediately scram.

"Thunderbolt!" With Ash's order, Pikachu's Thunderbolt arrived before the three people of Team Rocket could react. The three people were completely sent flying into the air. He believed that they wouldn't come looking for trouble in a short period of time.

"Ash, who is this Giovanni you're talking about?" After the three people of Team Rocket were dealt with, Brock asked.

"The Rocket Squad is the number one villain organization in Kanto. Even the League can't uproot them. They're currently in a stalemate. Giovanni is the boss of the Rocket Squad. He's the one who caused my grandmother's death!"

Seeing Brock's doubts, Ash gave a brief explanation of Team Rocket. In fact, many people in the League knew about Giovanni's identity. Unfortunately, Giovanni's power was on par with the League in Kanto. It could even be said that at least half of the Kanto area belonged to Giovanni.

Giovanni's Viridian city Gym was also one of the few that had gemstone version gym badges. Unfortunately, Ash's current strength did not allow him to challenge Giovanni, so he did not go directly to Viridian city Gym at that time. Instead, he went directly to Pewter city.

As for how Giovanni's gemstone version of the Gym came about, it was probably because he had made some kind of deal with the League!

"I see. I've heard of Team Rocket, but I didn't expect their power to be so great. If I didn't come out, I really wouldn't know about the outside world." Hearing Ash's words, Brock nodded.

"Clefairy ~" Seeing that Ash had chased away the bad guys who bullied him, Clefairy was very happy and gestured to Ash.

"Do you want me to go with you?" Seeing Clefairy's gesture, Ash guessed the meaning.

Hearing Ash's words, Clefairy nodded happily. Then, he led Ash and the others to the deepest part of the cave. After entering a vast cave, a soft light appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

They saw a large stone the size of five people surrounding it. It was being worshiped by a group of Clefairy. This stone was the secret of the creation of Moonstones. Almost all Moonstones were produced by this meteorite.

It was believed that there were meteorites like this in other areas. Otherwise, Moonstones would not appear. However, it was certainly not this large. Otherwise, the Kanto area would not have the highest number of Moonstones among all the areas.

"This is the Moonstone's main body. I didn't expect that we would have the chance to see it." Seeing the huge meteorite, his eyes immediately lit up as he looked at the big green stone. 

"Ding ~!"

"Congratulations to the host for seeing the Moonstone's main body. You have gained 5 attribute points."

Hearing the system notification, Ash's eyes flashed with joy. Even when he fought with the High Elite Takeo, he did not get any attribute points. He did not expect to get 5 attribute points from seeing a stone.

This time, Ash's luck was really good. With 5 attribute points, he had a good guarantee. He could at least draw five more times.

As for adding attribute points to his body, Ash did not even think about it. Although the difference of one attribute point was big, it did not increase by much. It was not as practical as drawing from the lottery.

----

A/N: I have seen many people being confused about attribute points being named such and still being used for drawing lottery.

Explanation: Theey are attribute points which can be used to add to his attributes. However, they can also be used for drawing lottery, so he uses it for those, rather than increasing his attributes as it will have minimal improvements.
