After all the Blue and White Society members responsible for external defense fell into a deep sleep, Jack led Entei, Nidoking, and Nidoqueen out of the woods and began giving them instructions.
"Ursaring, Nidoking, Nidoqueen, Arbok, the four of you, take your respective families and ten Vileplume, and drag all these unconscious guys into the woods first. If anyone wakes up early, have Vileplume use Sleep Powder on them. In short, before I get there, everyone must stay put. If anyone's Pokémon accidentally escapes, you all gang up on them directly; don't give them a chance to run."
"Nido!" "Ursaring!" "Arbok!" "Vileplume!"
The Pokémon responded, working according to Jack's instructions, some dragging people, some preparing Sleep Powder; in short, each performed their duties, cooperating to drag the people into the woods.
"Very good." Seeing their cooperation, Jack, satisfied, continued to give orders.
"The remaining Vileplume, you, along with Ariados, Scizor, and Aipom, take your respective families and guard here, blocking the entrance. If anyone comes out, immediately use Sleep Powder and String Shot on them to incapacitate them. Then, Aipom and Scizor, your two families will safely send them to Nidoking and the others, and also ensure the protection here."
Vileplume, Ariados, Scizor, and Aipom let out a cry and began working as Jack instructed.
"Pidgeot, Beedrill, you two follow this mountain range and send all those Blue and White Society members blocking the various exits to Ursaring and the others. Butterfree's Sleep Powder should have affected them too. After you've sent them all to Ursaring, you and Butterfree will guard there together. If anyone comes out, have Butterfree immediately use Sleep Powder."
Pidgeot and the Beedrill family also responded, flapping their wings and leaving one after another.
After arranging these main members, Jack looked at the remaining families behind him that had not yet been assigned, crossed his arms, propped his chin with his left hand, thought for a moment, then split and combined them one by one, and then sent them in several batches to assist the work of the previous three groups of Pokémon.
After arranging them, Jack called Mew back and asked it if it wanted to rest. It wouldn't matter if they continued to play with the guys in the cave a little later.
However, to Jack's surprise, Mew didn't want to rest, saying it wanted to continue playing above, to toy with those Blue and White Society members in the cave. It could sense that those guys were getting annoyed because they could only detect it but couldn't find it.
At this, Jack could only exchange glances with Entei, then shrugged helplessly, and walked towards Ursaring and the others with Entei... "They're not awake yet, are they?"
Walking into the bushes, Jack casually asked Ursaring and the others. Ursaring, Nidoking, and Nidoqueen all shook their heads simultaneously.
"Very good, since they're not awake yet, let's wake them up." Jack affectionately patted their heads, then casually picked out three people from the unconscious group.
"Azumarill, first spray water on these three to wake them up. I want to have a bounty battle with them."
"Azumarill~"
An Azumarill walked over. Just as it was about to unleash a Water Gun, a red light flashed from Jack's Poké Ball at his waist, and Munchlax ran out.
"Kabi!"
Munchlax first yelled at Azumarill to stop, then, with nimble steps, rushed in front of the three people Jack pointed to. It started rummaging through their pockets, collecting some food items, then slapped each of them hard. After slapping them awake from their unconscious state, it picked up the food and ran back to Jack, calling out "Kabi, Kabi."
It indicated that it wanted to handle such matters from now on.
Jack didn't reply, his mouth just twitched slightly. As for Entei and the other Pokémon, they sighed human-like in exasperation, as if saying, "I'm ashamed that it's my trainer's Pokémon..."
The three people who were slapped awake by Munchlax, the moment they opened their eyes, were still in a daze. They first looked around and, seeing Ursaring, Nidoking, Nidoqueen, and a large number of other Pokémon staring at them with ferocious expressions, immediately screamed, gasping for air, looking as if their souls had been scared out of them.
It wasn't until they realized there was a human standing among these Pokémon that they pointed at him, swallowing nervously and speaking with trembling voices.
"Who are you? You, you, you... what do you want to do? I'm telling you... we are from the Blue and White Society."
Looking at the terrified trio, Jack squatted down, revealing a smiling expression: "Who I am isn't important, and the Blue and White Society isn't important. What's important is that I now demand you engage in a bounty battle with me."
"Bounty battle?" The three were stunned.
"That's right, but in this bounty battle, if I win, you must give me all your money. If I lose, you leave safely."
The three looked at each other, and finally, the young man in the middle bravely spoke: "How do we fight? You're not going to make the three of us fight all of them here, are you? We couldn't possibly win that. Also, is Entei yours? If it joins, we'd have even less chance of winning; that's not fair."
"Of course not. Since it's a bounty battle, how could I be so shameless as to outnumber you? However, if you're willing to outnumber and fight my sole Pokémon in battle, I don't mind."
"Really?" The three were excited.
"Really, but you'll be fighting it." Jack crossed his arms and gestured behind him, and then Entei, who was standing behind him, stepped forward.
The three: "..."
Damn it! What's the difference between fighting Entei, one of the Legendary Beasts, and fighting the ferocious Ursaring and the others? Wouldn't both result in being cruelly trampled?
"Son of a bitch."
The three cursed the person in front of them in their hearts for his shamelessness, completely abusing his power, disregarding martial ethics, and forcing them into a bounty challenge they were bound to lose.
However, the next second, the person opposite said: "That's right, I am abusing my power, disregarding martial ethics, and forcing you into a challenge you are bound to lose."
The three were startled, fearful of how Jack had guessed their thoughts.
"Are you fighting or not? If not, I'll really force you to fight."
The three watched as the person opposite beckoned a Munchlax.
"Munchlax, give each of them a slap until they agree to battle me."
"Kabi!"
Munchlax, still chewing on candy, rushed towards the three. Slap, slap, slap, its hands delivered a series of slaps to the faces of the three. In less than three seconds, their faces were swollen, and they knelt, shouting, "I'll fight!"
Jack, with a smiling face, helped the three up: "That's right, why make it difficult? Agreeing early means you can avoid disaster by losing money early, and avoiding disaster by losing money early means you suffer less early."
The three looked at Jack. Instantly, they equated him with a devil. He was truly even worse than their Blue and White Society members.
