Rosa chirped. "Damian, Damian!"
Rosa saw Damian from a distance and got excited. She ran over to him quickly.
Rosa blinked. "Damian, it has been a long time."
Platinum observed the girl. Rosa had long hair tied into two buns. Platinum was curious. Was this a trainer from the Unova region?
Rosa made a very energetic first impression. Her face and shapely figure were certainly eye-catching.
Platinum looked at Rosa's chest. It was tightly wrapped in a slim-fitting short shirt. Platinum thought Rosa's development was extremely good. She looked to be a whole cup size larger than Platinum!
Damian smiled. "Actually, it has not been very long. It has been about half a month."
He admitted that Rosa's high energy improved his mood.
Rosa grinned innocently. "Mhm, but I still missed you very much, Damian."
Hilda walked behind her and clicked her tongue. This was a direct declaration of love!
Damian laughed softly. "Do you miss me, or do you miss my Tornadus?" In private, Rosa often mentioned that she wanted Tornadus.
She did not have any Flying-type Pokémon on her team.
Damian felt she might have a fixation on it. She had lost a battle against Tornadus in the past. She failed to catch it then.
Rosa chuckled. "Both."
Elesa walked over with a faint smile. She nodded to Damian.
Caitlin frowned slightly. This woman actually dared to come here. They were in public, so Caitlin only gave Elesa a cold look and said nothing.
Lacey called out. "Mr. Damian!"
The group from Blueberry Academy arrived. Drayton led them.
Drayton moved his arm with great force. "Everyone, shout with me."
The group shouted loudly and in unison. "GREETINGS, BOSS!"
The shout of dozens of people was massive. It scared several Starly into flight.
Passersby in the distance looked at them. They probably thought a rehearsal was happening.
Rosa clicked her tongue. "These guys really know how to show off!" These academy students knew how to create a scene because they had many people.
Platinum was silent. She wondered if these students would still respect Damian if they knew the truth. Their employer was the leader of Team Rocket.
However, Platinum did not want to cause trouble. Damian had warned her and Paul.
Damian was surprised but satisfied. This created a proper atmosphere.
Damian made a joke. "Very good. You have a lot of spirit."
"However, try to avoid such ostentatious scenes in the city. People who do not know better might think we are criminals."
Damian pointed at the Eterna Galactic Building. "Now, for what comes next, I do not think I need to say much more."
"That is a large base for Team Galactic. There should be Team Galactic Commanders guarding it."
"Your mission this time is to take down every single Team Galactic member inside. Whoever catches a Team Galactic Commander gets the top credit."
"If you succeed in this mission, then for the next three days, I will cover all your expenditures for food and lodging here in Sinnoh. You can play to your heart's content." Damian smiled.
The students were very excited. "WAHHH!!!"
"The Boss is so magnanimous!!"
"Boss! We love and respect you, dammit!"
The chance to travel in Sinnoh for three days for free made the young students very happy. No other company in the world was this kind.
Rosa felt strongly that Damian was the right man for her. "Damian is truly so handsome!" Only a man like this was worthy of her.
Hilda rolled her eyes.
Meanwhile, inside the Eterna Galactic Building.
A woman with purplish-red hair was making a phone call. She wore a silver and black bodysuit and looked irritable.
She was the Team Galactic Commander, Mars.
Mars hung up the phone immediately. "I know. If I have time, I will go over there. Fine, that is all."
"That guy Charon is seriously mentally ill. All day long, he only thinks about his own business. Does he think I am not busy?" Mars cursed. Charon was also a Team Galactic Commander, but he was a scientist.
Mars did not like Charon. He was a somber old man and did not seem like a good person. Charon did not focus on helping Cyrus with Dialga and Palkia. Instead, he spent all day trying to find Heatran.
Saturn had blue hair. He shook his head. "Let him be. If he really can find Heatran, it can be considered working for Team Galactic." He did not like Charon either, but it did not matter.
Mars sneered. "With his skills, so what if he finds Heatran? Can he even catch it?"
Charon was just a scientist. Not all researchers could fight like Colress. Charon did not have that ability. Even if he found Heatran, he could not catch it.
Saturn spoke in a heavy voice. "Let us not talk about Charon. Be careful lately. Team Rocket has landed in the Sinnoh region. Try your best to avoid conflict with them." He had come to Eterna City for this reason.
Mars frowned. "Is that really necessary? Even if Team Rocket is strong, this is not the Kanto region."
She felt Saturn was overreacting. Team Rocket might be strong, but that was only in Kanto.
Saturn looked very solemn. "No, Mars. From what I have learned, Team Rocket is very terrifying."
"Teams like Team Skull, Team Aqua, Team Magma, and Team Plasma were all wiped out or absorbed by Team Rocket after they landed. Even the survival space for Pokémon Hunter groups has been suppressed to an extreme degree."
Saturn looked very serious.
"Do you know what people in the industry call Team Rocket? No villain team can escape Team Rocket's pursuit!"
Mars was dubious. She wondered if he was exaggerating.
"Maybe those teams were just trash. Not every team is like us." Mars did not think much of Team Rocket. Sinnoh was the territory of Team Galactic.
"Besides, did Cyrus not already send someone to go undercover in Team Rocket a long time ago?"
Saturn felt emotional. "Yes, Cyrus has great foresight. Team Rocket is indeed dangerous."
Mars was very confident. "So there is no need to worry. If Team Rocket really dares to come, I will take care of them."
She would let them see her power!
Team Rocket was impressive, but Team Galactic was also impressive.
The three Team Galactic Commanders had defeated Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf. Also, Cyrus was a Champion-level trainer.
In Mars's eyes, even the Sinnoh Champion, Cynthia, was not as powerful as Cyrus.
Saturn felt Mars was being too arrogant. Team Rocket was not a simple group. Before he could finish, someone knocked loudly on the door.
A Team Galactic grunt entered.
Mars was displeased. She thought being panicked was inappropriate. "What is going on?"
"A group of people is attacking the base! They are slowly fighting their way in!"
Mars was shocked. The Eterna Galactic Building was one of their most important bases. It was located inside Eterna City.
Saturn remained calm. "Is it the Sinnoh League?"
"No, it is a group of young people."
Mars cursed. She stood up with a dark face and walked toward the outside.
"Can any random nobody come and mess with Team Galactic now?"
This base was her responsibility. She did not want to explain a failure to Cyrus. She also did not want Jupiter to mock her.
Mars was very angry. She was going to teach a lesson to the people attacking her base.
Saturn was rational, but he felt it was strange. "If it is not the League, who else would attack our base?" In Sinnoh, only Pokémon Hunters had the guts to attack them, but they had no reason to do so.
He thought of Team Rocket. They had just arrived and wanted territory. They would naturally oppose Team Galactic.
But if it was Team Rocket, they did not need to hide who they were.
Saturn was confused, but he followed Mars. They were colleagues. He could not sit by while others attacked the building.
The inside of the Eterna Galactic Building was in complete chaos. Many Pokémon were in a large battle.
Rosa was very excited. "Exciting! This is so exciting!"
Rosa's Hydreigon used Dragon Pulse to defeat a Dustox. Her Serperior used Leaf Blade to knock down a Kadabra.
Rosa felt very thrilled. Everyone around her was in a huge battle. The atmosphere was intense.
Rosa looked to her side. Elesa was using a Pokémon that looked like a person made of electrical cables. It was Xurkitree!
Electric sparks flickered on Xurkitree's body. It used Thunderbolt and easily defeated many Pokémon.
Rosa stared. "It looks so strong. Is this Xurkitree?" Pokémon like Xurkitree were as strong as Dragonite or Tyranitar.
Rosa liked them. She especially liked Pheromosa.
Elesa smiled at Rosa. "Yes, you can trade for one too. Xurkitree is really strong."
Elesa felt the charm of raw power. When she first caught Xurkitree, it was weak. After half a month of training, it became much stronger.
Elesa was a famous Gym Leader in Unova. She had many challengers. Xurkitree had many fights, and battling was the fastest way to gain strength.
Elesa believed Xurkitree would soon replace Zebstrika as her best Pokémon. This was the power of a Pokémon like Xurkitree.
Rosa was frustrated. "I really want one, but I do not have enough merit points."
The cost for Pokémon like Xurkitree was very high. Rosa wanted Tornadus more, so she could not trade for one.
Hilda finished off two Team Galactic members. "Stop chatting, you two! Get upstairs quickly, or the Team Galactic Commanders will be snatched by someone else first!"
Rosa replied quickly. "Right, right, right! Let us get up there!"
The Eterna Galactic Building had four floors. Each floor was quite large.
All four floors were now a battlefield. The bottom three floors were a complete mess.
The Team Galactic members on the fourth floor were elites. However, they were not strong enough to stop Rosa and Drayton.
Then, Mars and Saturn walked out.
Mars had an ugly expression. "It really is a group of stinking brats."
Rosa noticed them immediately. "Look over there, look over there! Those two should be the Team Galactic Commanders, right?"
"It is definitely them. But there are only two of them."
Rosa, Platinum, Drayton, and the others looked at each other. They wanted the merit points.
These two people were the real targets today.
Drayton spoke. "I am the Blueberry Academy Champion! Leave these two for me to deal with! I can handle it!"
Hilda replied. "Forget it! Do you not understand the principle of 'ladies first'? And at the end of the day, you guys are just students. These are Team Galactic Commanders. You do not have the ability. Let me do it."
Drayton argued back. "I am a Dragon-type trainer! Why would I not have the ability?"
Hilda scoffed. "As if you are the only one with a dragon. I have a Hydreigon too."
Platinum coughed. "Everyone, do not argue yet. I am the eldest daughter of the Berlitz family and a Sinnoh local. I feel these two should be left for me to battle!"
Mars was extremely angry. Her skin twitched. She began to laugh because she was so furious.
She believed that people laugh when they are very angry.
These children were too arrogant. They were looking down on her.
Saturn frowned. Rosa and the others talked as if the Team Galactic Commanders were already defeated.
He wondered if young people today were always this conceited.
Mars took out two Poké Balls. She had a cold smile. "It seems I am truly being underestimated. How about you listen to me for a second?"
Mars wanted everyone's attention. "No need to argue. Come at me all at once."
She decided to beat these children until they were full of doubt.
She did not believe she could lose. They were just kids.
She was the Team Galactic Commander, Mars!
She was going to win!
