★★★

On Crobat's purple body, a layer of mysterious blue light suddenly appeared.

No matter how Crobat flapped its wings, it couldn't move at all!

"This is Psychic!"

Cyrus noticed this, and his usually indifferent expression finally showed some change, his eyes grim, and he felt a little uneasy.

This was the Psychic move of the Psychic-type!

But how was this possible?

His strength was indeed inferior to Cynthia's, because he was only a mid-level Champion, an average Champion, not weak, but definitely not strong either.

But no matter what, his Crobat was a Champion-level Pokémon!

Psychic power that could immobilize Crobat? Did Cynthia have a main Psychic-type Pokémon?

Why had he never heard of it?

"Come down."

Ryuga's lips curled into a malicious grin, and beside him was Gardevoir.

Gardevoir's eyes glowed with an incredibly deep blue light, and a slender arm was raised, aimed at Crobat and Cyrus.

Yes, it was Gardevoir that was controlling Crobat.

"Sana~"

Gardevoir let out a soft cry, and with a gentle wave of her arm, Crobat and Cyrus fell uncontrollably towards the ground.

They hit the ground heavily, and intense pain shot through Cyrus's arms and legs, but he merely furrowed his brow, forcefully enduring the pain.

"Who are you?"

Cyrus slowly stood up, his gaze sweeping over Gardevoir, whose blue eyes had faded, then his sight fell upon Ryuga as he asked in a deep voice.

There was no need to think anymore.

This was definitely a Trainer comparable to Cynthia, or even stronger than Cynthia.

"Ryuga, you can call me Ryuga."

Ryuga's smile at the corners of his lips turned elegant, and he performed a gentleman's bow to Cyrus.

Ryuga?

Cyrus's brows remained tightly furrowed.

How had he never heard of such a young Champion-level Trainer in the Pokémon League?

On the other side, Cynthia, who was busy dealing with Mars and the other Team Galactic members, also shifted most of her attention to Ryuga.

The strength of Mars and the others was simply too far behind hers.

Even with an absolute numerical advantage, it couldn't change the outcome of the battle.

So, the most important thing was Cyrus, the leader of Team Galactic.

"I've long heard of Mr. Cyrus, the leader of Team Galactic, but now that we meet…"

Ryuga tilted his head slightly, sizing up Cyrus, the curve of his lips slowly rising, coupled with golden crown on his forehead, it was looking extremely sinister.

"It truly is a case of meeting not living up to the reputation~ And it's a wonder Sird actually remained loyal to Team Galactic."

The slightly sarcastic words clearly reached Cyrus's ears, causing his usually calm expression to instantly change slightly.

"How do you know? No!"

Cyrus's usually somber face became even darker at this moment, looking at Ryuga in disbelief.

Sird!

It was Sird, one of the Three Beasts, a high-ranking executive of Team Rocket!

Yes, Sird was actually a spy for Team Galactic!

It was Cyrus who had Sird infiltrate Team Rocket, but this was supposed to be an absolute secret.

Besides him and Sird, no one else knew.

But in an instant, Cyrus understood.

"You are that strongest executive of Team Rocket!"

This guy in front of him was not a Trainer from the Pokémon League at all, but from Team Rocket!

...

The relationship between Sird and Cyrus was something no third person could possibly know.

So how did this Ryuga know that Sird was a Team Galactic spy?

"That Sird! She actually betrayed me!"

Cyrus's eyes flickered with chilling coldness.

Yes, the only thing he could think of was that Sird had betrayed him, a traitor!

And he also remembered that Sird had told him that there was a new strongest executive in Team Rocket, promoted only half a year ago, named Ryuga.

"It seems Mr. Cyrus understands, but you don't need to be angry."

Ryuga casually toyed with the shrunken Poké Ball in his hand, looking at the grim-faced Cyrus, the smile on his lips light and sinister.

"After all, for someone of your caliber, you can't control capable subordinates like Sird. Team Galactic? It doesn't deserve her loyalty either."

Ryuga's extremely natural tone, however, made Cyrus's eyes grow even darker.

What did he mean by 'you can't control'?

"A Team Rocket executive?"

Not far away, Cynthia and the others finally understood Ryuga's identity.

Cynthia's brows furrowed tightly, and her gaze towards Ryuga was already filled with caution.

Compared to Cyrus, this young man clearly made her more wary.

She knew from the beginning that this person's identity was unusual, but Cynthia truly hadn't expected that he was also a member of an evil organization like Team Galactic.

"Hey, hey, hey, is it really okay to expose it like this?"

Marnie noticed the change in Cynthia and the others' expressions, her eyelids twitching as she once again kept her distance, moving closer to Ryuga.

"It seems Mr. Cyrus is quite unconvinced."

Glancing at Cynthia and the others, Ryuga didn't care.

He originally had no intention of hiding his identity.

Compared to Cynthia, he cared more about Cyrus now.

"When was that?"

Cyrus's voice was very low.

He had originally sent his confidante Sird to Team Rocket as an undercover agent simply because Team Rocket was developing too strongly, preparing for the future.

But now Sird had betrayed him.

When did she betray him?

"What's the point of Mr. Cyrus knowing about this? After all, an idealist like you, generally anyone with a brain wouldn't follow you, right?"

Ryuga sneered, mocking him mercilessly.

In reality, Sird had not truly betrayed Cyrus.

Sird was a truly smart person.

After all, in the special chapter, Sird was the main villain who ran through most of the plot.

And Sird's hidden strength was also excellent.

She was a Darkrai Trainer!

In the original work, she also defeated Lorelei, who later went into seclusion.

Although Sird couldn't control the overly strong Darkrai on her, Darkrai was indeed Sird's trump card.

Team Galactic was Sird's old employer after all.

After Sird came to Team Rocket, she also understood that Cyrus was completely trash compared to Giovanni, and Team Galactic's potential was completely incomparable to Team Rocket.

However, people might be such complex creatures.

Sird still couldn't make up her mind to completely abandon Team Galactic and join Team Rocket.

Perhaps Sird was also waiting.

Waiting for Team Rocket's ending!

Because given the situation in Kanto, a fierce battle between Team Rocket and the Kanto League was inevitable!

Sird was also waiting to see if Team Rocket could withstand the Kanto League's offensive.

But this did not hinder Ryuga's interest in Sird.

Yes, Ryuga had talked to Sird and exposed Sird's undercover identity.

It was precisely from Sird that Ryuga got Cyrus's contact information.

"Hmph! What an arrogant brat."

Being directly called an idealist by Ryuga, Cyrus's eyes became even gloomier, and his expression towards Ryuga was full of gloom.

"But I really didn't expect that the dignified Sinnoh Champion would join forces with someone from Team Rocket. Has the Sinnoh League fallen to such a degree?"

Then Cyrus glanced at Cynthia and said lightly,

The situation was too bad now.

Now was not the time for anger.

He still had to find an opportunity to retreat.

So Cyrus decisively sowed discord!

Cynthia frowned upon hearing this.

She understood that Cyrus was trying to sow discord, but she had to admit that Cyrus's words indeed made her uncomfortable.

She had always been a kind-hearted Trainer, while Team Rocket was the overlord of Kanto's dark world.

Standing on the same front as a member of Team Rocket made Cynthia feel very strange, but Cynthia understood the priorities.

How could she have an internal conflict with Ryuga at this time?

The primary target was, of course, Team Galactic.

"That's all you've got for tricks. We've talked enough, Gardevoir."

Ryuga chuckled twice.

Cyrus was only at this level.

Did he think Cynthia was someone who would only act on impulse?

Having lost interest, Ryuga directly gave the order to Gardevoir.

Gardevoir's arms came together, and a deep blue light suddenly lit up in her eyes, as a massive Psychic power surged out.

Psychic!

Crobat was once again restrained by Psychic.

Even though Crobat struggled constantly, it was completely useless.

"Do you really think I'm a pushover?"

"Weavile, Sucker Punch!"

Cyrus's face sank, and he quickly threw out a Poké Ball.

A Weavile appeared and rushed towards Gardevoir at high speed, black light flashing on its sharp claws.

Gardevoir's Psychic was indeed troublesome, and Cyrus had no good solution, as Gardevoir was simply overwhelming with her raw power.

But for the Dark-type Weavile, Gardevoir's Psychic was ineffective!

"Moonblast."

Ryuga's mouth curled slightly.

He truly wouldn't give up until he hit a wall.

...

"Moonblast."

Upon hearing this, Gardevoir's eyes suddenly blazed with blue light.

Under the control of Psychic, Crobat once again fell heavily, crashing onto the ground.

At the same time, Gardevoir's slender arms clasped together, her clear eyes fixed intently on Weavile, and a phantom of a bright full moon appeared behind Gardevoir.

As Gardevoir pushed her arms forward, Moonblast transformed into a pink beam of light, shooting towards Weavile's position.

"Weavile!"

Cyrus sternly shouted at Weavile.

It couldn't be hit.

Weavile was already doubly weak to Fairy-type, especially with the opponent's Gardevoir being so terrifyingly strong.

If hit by Moonblast, with Weavile's physique, it would be crippled if not killed.

However, the problem shouldn't be too big, Cyrus looked at the Moonblast beam.

Although the attack speed was very fast, with his Weavile's agility and explosive power, it shouldn't be difficult to avoid it in general.

"Snea~"

Weavile ran at high speed, instantly changing its position, avoiding the landing point of Moonblast, and continued to rush towards Gardevoir,

But…

"How naive, thinking it's that simple?"

Ryuga's mouth curled up.

The moment Weavile changed its position, Gardevoir turned her arm, and a brilliant colorful light condensed in front of her.

Dazzling Gleam!

Dazzling Gleam transformed into a ball of light, rapidly shooting towards Weavile.

And this time, Weavile couldn't dodge in time!

Boom!

Dazzling Gleam heavily struck Weavile, producing a violent explosion.

Weavile was sent flying, falling to the ground with a pained expression.

Although it didn't immediately lose its combat ability, having fully taken the Fairy-type Dazzling Gleam damage, it was directly severely wounded.

Cyrus's face was ashen.

Weavile was his ace Main force!

But it was severely injured so quickly.

"Was Moonblast just a decoy?"

Cynthia's beautiful eyes flickered slightly.

Clearly, Moonblast was just a feint, because she guessed that with Weavile's agility, a straightforward Moonblast would be difficult to hit.

So, she prepared a second attack, Dazzling Gleam.

"Gardevoir is indeed elegant and powerful."

Caitlin's gaze, however, was more focused on Gardevoir.

Cyrus, the leader of Team Galactic, was completely no match for this Gardevoir.

"Gardevoir, Psychic."

Ryuga didn't care about Cyrus's expression at all, and continued to give orders to Gardevoir.

Cyrus's expression changed, because this time the target of Psychic was him.

His body floated uncontrollably, and no matter how he struggled, it was useless.

And under Gardevoir's control, a sacred stone relic that Cyrus had on him flew out.

The radiant green orb was taken out, and Gardevoir released her Psychic control.

Cyrus fell to the ground again, his face so grim it was almost dripping water.

"Jewel of Life!"

Seeing this, Sheena and Kevin's eyes lit up simultaneously.

This was indeed the Jewel of Life!

But in an instant, Sheena's expression changed slightly.

The Jewel of Life was indeed not stolen by Team Galactic, but…

It fell into Team Rocket's hands again!

Sheena looked at Ryuga.

This person was far more dangerous than Cyrus, and he was also coveting the Jewel of Life!

"That's all you've got. If you have any self-awareness, I advise you to disband Team Galactic. With your meager abilities, you dare to mess around in the dark world?"

Taking the radiant green orb out of the sacred stone relic and examining it for a moment, Ryuga glanced at Cyrus and mocked him unceremoniously.

It wasn't that he looked down on Cyrus.

If he didn't focus on improving his own strength, how could such a person hope to destroy the world and create a new one?

Didn't he know his own limits?

Even Giovanni knew that to dominate the world, he had to improve his strength, which is why he went to great lengths to create Mewtwo himself.

And Ghetsis also cultivated N from a young age, training N to become the ideal (true) hero, and also had Colress revive and modify Genesect.

Compared to these two villain bosses, Cyrus and others were clearly more than one level lower, only constantly pursuing Dialga and Palkia.

And upon hearing this.

Cynthia: "…"

Caitlin: "…"

Marnie: "…"

This person… this person is super arrogant, isn't he!

Sheena and Kevin, like Cynthia and the two women, looked at Cyrus's extremely grim face with rather strange expressions.

Although Cyrus was the leader of Team Galactic, no matter what, they suddenly felt some sympathy for him at this moment.

He was clearly the boss of an evil organization, but now he was not only completely overpowered, but also mercilessly ridiculed like this.

Emmmm…

"You don't have to be smug. Today's me is tomorrow's you. Cooperating with the League, do you think you'll have a good end?"

Cyrus stared intently at Ryuga and said coldly.

Even he, with his usually indifferent temperament, was filled with humiliation at this moment.

Truly, this guy's words were too unpleasant!

"Oh? Well, you don't need to worry about that."

Ryuga raised an eyebrow, replying casually.

It was boring.

Cyrus was Cyrus after all, too calm in temperament.

If it were Ghetsis, he would probably be spewing 'sweet nothings' and bickering with Ryuga right now.

Having Gardevoir use Psychic to throw Cyrus next to Mars and the others who had lost the ability to resist, Ryuga lowered his head to look at the radiant green orb in his hand.

"I wonder how this thing was counterfeited."

Ryuga gently spun the radiant green orb with interest.

It was indeed a fake, but from its appearance alone, it was extremely mysterious and dazzling.

Sheena and Kevin looked at Ryuga with some urgency, but they didn't dare to step forward and speak.

This person was too strong.

Even Cyrus was completely no match for him, and he was also a member of Team Rocket…

"Champion Cynthia…"

Pressing her lips tightly, Sheena cast a pleading look at Cynthia.

Now, she could only hope that Cynthia could help her retrieve the Jewel of Life.

Cynthia was silent for a moment, then spoke to Caitlin beside her, "Caitlin, please go and watch over Cyrus and the others."

"Be careful."

Caitlin glanced at Ryuga, then agreed and said to Cynthia.

Team Galactic was now dealt with, so it was Ryuga's turn.

But everyone present knew that Ryuga was far more dangerous and much stronger than Cyrus.

Marnie also noticed the change in atmosphere and quickly ran to Ryuga's side, vigilantly looking at Cynthia and the others.

The fierce and domineering Garchomp turned around and slowly took a few steps forward, its dragon eyes intently fixed on Gardevoir.

"Interesting, Miss Cynthia, are you trying to fight me?"

Ryuga's mouth slowly curved into a grin as he looked directly at Cynthia and said slowly.
