The Search Division.
A direct force under the Dragon Country Pokémon League General Headquarters.
And right now, it was commanded at the highest operational level by Jin Peng, the Dragon-type Elite Four.
Jin Peng took out the docunts he'd prepared in advance, rose to his feet, and began his report.
"Based on intelligence the Search Division has gathered recently—"
"The constant disasters across Dragon Country over this period have not been a coincidence. They were organized by human hands."
The mont he said that, Lin Feng's brows tightened slightly.
"Human? There's already power like that inside Dragon Country?"
Lin Feng had been in special training these past few days, so he didn't know what had been happening around the country.
Of course, he'd heard about the disasters.
But precisely because he'd heard, the idea of it being man-made felt unbelievable.
Disasters on this scale weren't sothing you could manufacture casually. The difficulty was enormous.
Seeing his confusion, Jin Peng continued, "You're right—forces within Dragon Country don't have that kind of capability."
"But if power from outside the country intervenes… that's another story."
"According to what our undercover agents sent back, the international organization Team Galactic likely has a hand in this."
Team Galactic.
The instant those two words landed, even the usually upbeat, joking Su Xiaxuan turned serious.
Everyone at the table was familiar with Team Galactic.
Because all of them had fought Team Galactic's top Executives before.
As an internationally dangerous organization, several major Pokémon nations had once dispatched Elite Four Tier powerhouses in an attempt to wipe Team Galactic out.
And yet... Team Galactic was slippery.
Every ti a battle turned unfavorable, they withdrew imdiately, without the slightest hesitation.
On top of that, Team Galactic's strength was formidable.
Which was why multiple international joint hunts had ended in failure again and again.
Still, Team Galactic usually only moved around smaller countries.
No one expected them to dare cause trouble in Dragon Country this ti.
"Hmph."
"Perfect timing. I'll use Team Galactic to test what Beedrill's accomplished during this training."
Lin Feng snorted.
During this period of special training, his Beedrill still hadn't truly stepped into Champion Tier.
But he had other ways to make Beedrill burst out with Champion-tier destructive power.
After all, during this ti, he'd also encountered fortune of his own.
Seeing how confident Lin Feng was, Su Xiaxuan couldn't help asking, "Brother Lin—did your Beedrill break through?"
For a mont, everyone stared at him with curiosity.
If Lin Feng's Beedrill had reached Champion Tier, it would be a trendous boost for their upcoming operation.
Unfortunately...
Under their expectant gazes, Lin Feng shook his head.
"No. My Beedrill is still only Elite Four Tier."
"But I found a Pokémon tool in the wild this ti."
As he spoke, Lin Feng pulled out a bracelet and a bluish-green crystal.
"Why does that stone look so familiar…?" Su Xiaxuan pouted, murmuring to herself.
She felt like she'd seen it sowhere, but she couldn't rember.
No helping it—Su Xiaxuan was simply too good at having fun.
Unless it was sothing truly important, most things slid right past her.
She didn't recognize them, but the others did.
"Isn't that what Teacher Guo had on his wrist when he fought Zapdos?"
"Brother Lin—don't tell you t that 'Bug Master' in person!"
Jin Peng blurted out, a little too excited.
Ever since his last eting with Guo Yi, he'd only grown more curious about who this "Bug Master" really was.
But in the next second, Lin Feng poured cold water over him.
"No. These two tools were given to by a Pokémon."
Lin Feng shook his head and explained how he'd co by them.
"I got them during special training. A Pokémon with a pair of curved black horns on its head—like a bull's—gave them to ."
"And if I'm not mistaken, that Pokémon is very likely a Legendary Pokémon."
Speaking of the encounter, even Lin Feng felt a trace of bewildernt.
He'd been training Beedrill normally when the Pokémon suddenly attacked without warning.
As for why Lin Feng believed it was a Legendary Pokémon—its strength, of course.
Even after he sent out all of his Pokémon, he still couldn't defeat it.
Not only that—throughout the battle, it remained completely at ease, as if it felt no pressure at all.
A Pokémon that powerful…
Lin Feng hadn't even felt that kind of presence from Gu Yuan's Pokémon.
So he was certain: it had to be a Legendary Pokémon.
After the fight, Lin Feng realized the Pokémon didn't seem to bear him any hostility.
And when the battle ended, it gave him these two tools.
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help marveling at Lin Feng's luck.
Go out for training once, and you run into a Legendary Pokémon handing out gifts.
"By the way, Elite Four Lin," the Chairman asked, "what do these two tools do?"
Since they were gifts from a Legendary Pokémon, they presumably had so extraordinary effect.
"Do you all rember the final strike Beedrill used in its fight against Zapdos?" Lin Feng said.
Ever since he obtained them, he'd been studying their purpose.
In the end, he really did figure it out.
By repeatedly imitating Guo Yi's movents, Lin Feng successfully unleashed the Z-Move: Savage Spin-Out!
"So it wasn't a secret technique after all…" Su Xiaxuan, the Psychic-type Elite Four, sighed in realization.
At first, the general public had assud it was a secret technique.
The reason was simple: a Z-Move was purely a burst of power in a single strike—it wasn't a change in form.
If Guo Yi had possessed a ga Stone back then, and had Beedrill ga Evolve…
The shockwaves from that mont would have been far more violent.
After all, a ga-Evolved Pokémon and its original form were practically two different beings.
If that had happened…
Then if John Bull, and the like heard about it, they'd probably lose their composure.
Jin Peng couldn't hold back. "Brother Lin—then is that Pokémon still in the Secret Realm where you trained?"
Sothing that could raise a Pokémon's strength like this—
How could Jin Peng, who was obsessed with power, possibly let it go?
Not just Jin Peng. Even Gu Yuan, the Champion, showed a flicker of temptation in his eyes.
"I don't know," Lin Feng said.
"After it gave the tools, I never saw it again."
He couldn't give a definite answer. The only reason he'd t it in the first place was because it had co to him.
"But once this disaster is resolved, I can take you all to have a look."
Right now, Dragon Country's disaster situation mattered more.
Everyone present clearly understood that, so no one pressed further. They returned to the main topic.
Jin Peng continued, "It's not only Team Galactic. This disaster situation also seems connected to the Seven Sages."
"According to our intel, there have been frequent traces of Seven Sages activity around Yunlong Dam in the south recently."
The Pokémon League naturally wasn't unfamiliar with the Seven Sages.
But—
They hadn't found evidence of the Seven Sages committing cris.
So even if they suspected the organization, the League couldn't move against them without cause.
The Pokémon League was Dragon Country's most official, most powerful organization, yes—but if it struck out at other forces recklessly, it could easily spark panic.
That wouldn't be good for the League's developnt in Dragon Country.
Which was why, before the League did anything, it needed justification and proof.
Still, Water-type Elite Four Li Bing voiced her doubts.
"Could it just be a coincidence?"
"Would the Seven Sages really dare lay a hand on Yunlong Dam?"
"Do they not want to survive in Dragon Country anymore?"
Everyone knew what Yunlong Dam ant to the entire southern region—it was the stabilizing pillar.
If Yunlong Dam suffered any damage at all…
They wouldn't even need the Pokémon League to act. The forces across the south would tear the Seven Sages apart.
Public fury was not sothing you could withstand.
"We still don't know what the Seven Sages are after," Jin Peng said.
"But we can't afford not to prepare."
He didn't really believe the Seven Sages would dare target Yunlong Dam either.
But at a mont like this, they couldn't ignore any possibility.
If sothing truly happened to Yunlong Dam, then the Elite Four and Champion of this era would beco a stain in Dragon Country League history.
At that, the Chairman nodded. "Elite Four Jin is right."
"Whether it's true or not, we need to prepare in advance."
"And Yunlong Dam has also sent a request for support. We must take it seriously."
As Jin Peng said—
Better to prepare for the worst.
For the Seven Sages to appear at such a juncture was already abnormal.
They absolutely could not take it lightly.
Then the Chairman began assigning tasks.
"Elite Four Jin. Elite Four Lin."
"Here!"
"You two will lead teams to Yunlong Dam and take up a defensive post. No matter what happens, you must ensure Yunlong Dam's safety."
"Yunlong Dam concerns the lives and property of hundreds of millions. There cannot be the slightest mistake."
"Don't worry, Chairman," Jin Peng and Lin Feng replied with solemn expressions, as if issuing a military pledge. "As long as the dam stands, we stand. If the dam falls, we fall with it!"
Mm.
Sending two mbers of the Elite Four to Yunlong Dam showed just how seriously the Chairman took this.
"Elite Four Li Bing—the northern fires will be yours to support."
"Your Water-type Pokémon should be able to make a major difference."
"As for Elite Four Su, you'll go to Chengdu. Your Psychic-type Pokémon can play an enormous role in searching for survivors."
"And Gu Yuan—you will remain at the central command with , in case anything unexpected occurs."
"Any questions?"
"No."
"Then move out."
At once, the Elite Four rose from their seats and left to begin preparations.
