Pokémon: Forced to Become a Dragon Master at the Beginning

"Our underground black market is the largest in the entire southwest region." The cheongsam woman said with a smile, a hint of pride flashing across her face: "Here, there are only things you can't think of, but nothing you can't buy."

"Take me to see it first." After listening to the introduction of the cheongsam woman, Xia Yu became very interested.

Xia Yu walked into the slightly gloomy underground black market, and what came into view was a long street. Both sides of the street were crowded with small vendors selling props. The stalls were filled with a wide variety of goods, which were dazzling.

Xia Yu saw many shoppers wearing masks like him, stopping on the street, picking out items, hoping to find a bargain.

The street vendors sold elf eggs, various rare items, and even human traffickers, which opened Xia Yu's eyes.

As Xia Yu walked, he used the system's ability to check the props and elf eggs on the stalls.

This also allowed Xia Yu to discover a lot of good things in the huge free trade area.

He walked and attacked as he went along, taking all the items above A-rank without hesitation, and he was also not polite to any Pokémon eggs of quasi-king-level caliber.

He has spent several million on this trip.

Such tycoon behavior also made the vendors in the free trade zone regard Xia Yu as a walking fat sheep and they shouted at him vigorously.

"Come and have a look. Top-quality elf eggs are 10% off for one, 20% off for two, and 30% off for three. If you buy more, you can get a discount."

"The Pokémon egg of the three great families, the extremely rare Opponent's characteristic Vine Snake, your father has already learned Leaf Storm, which will give you a head start."

"The strange power has been perfectly tamed, a good helper at home, reducing the burden of your life."

"The lovely and charming Gardevoir, those who understand will understand."

"Selling all kinds of slaves at low prices, from safe sources, healthy and without major diseases."

…………

The shouting sounds coming one after another were like those in a vegetable market, but Xia Yu just glanced at it and walked past it.

It is true that there are many good things in this free trade zone, such as a king-level thorny cactus, but most of the things are garbage.

Only a few people get lucky and the majority get cheated.

After crossing the long street, Xia Yu and the other two soon arrived at the end of the free trade area.

In the small iron cage, there were a man and a woman locked with iron chains. They had dirty hair and huddled together. They raised their heads like zombies and looked at Xia Yu and others with desperate eyes, their eyes filled with fear.

"Would you like to take a look? These are the best slaves, which have only arrived a few days ago." Seeing Xia Yu and the others stop, the short man selling slaves turned on the faucet and flushed water towards the slaves in the cages.

"Don't look at them as if they don't look good now, it's because the environment here is not good. When you buy them and take them back, wash them and dress them up well, they will look good and be in good health." The short man sold them hard.

Xia Yu shook his head slightly. He didn't want to get involved in this matter for the time being. At least he didn't want to act rashly before completing this mission.

After all, this world is different from the original world. The existence of supernatural phenomena such as Pokémon has brought many more lawless people to this world, and slave trading is also a very common thing.

"Do you have this kind of business here?" Xia Yu asked.

"Of course, there is a market and demand. As long as the profit is high enough, there will definitely be people who will do it." The cheongsam woman smiled and said, "Not only human trafficking, but any organ transplant you want can be found here."

"Drawing blood, matching blood types, and customizing hearts and kidneys can all be done in as little as one day." The cheongsam woman stretched out a finger and spoke.

"If you are really interested, you can go to our own trade fair to have a look. He has too few slaves here. After all, he is just a private slave owner, so it is difficult for him to produce high-quality goods."

Listening to the words of the cheongsam woman, Xia Yu had a bad feeling in his heart. He found that he had underestimated the muddy water of Heilong City.

Judging from the scale of the underground black market and underground casinos in Heilong City, it is definitely not something that a top-level trainer like Duan Qixin from the Duan family can accomplish.

Xia Yu thought of Tan Yongsen, the Water King and one of the Four Heavenly Kings in the Southwest. With Tan Yongsen's strength as the last of the Four Heavenly Kings, could he really control the largest underground black market in the entire Southwest?

Could it be Lu Tinghe?

Xia Yu was also shocked by his bold idea, but the more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed.

He didn't believe that Lu Tinghe didn't know about this.

Since they knew about it, why didn't they seal it up and ban it? Did they condone it, or did Lu Tinghe himself get involved?

Xia Yu fell into deep thought. He began to examine this mission and wondered why Zhang Zhenghua reminded him at the beginning that he must be careful if this operation involved Duan Qixin, the eldest brother of the Duan family.

Suddenly, Xia Yu felt that this mission was far more complicated than he had imagined, especially since he joined Team Zero following Lu Tinghe's path.

If Lu Tinghe is really the mastermind behind this underground black market, then things may be far more complicated than he thought.

…………

"Boss Lin, what are you thinking about? Are you so distracted?" The cheongsam woman saw Xia Yu distracted and waved her hand to remind him.

"It's okay, let's go and take a look at the fine slaves you mentioned." Xia Yu waved his hand and temporarily suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind. He decided to investigate the underground world of Black Dragon City after returning, so as not to end up being used as a gun by others without knowing it.

"please."

The three followed the cheongsam woman into the second area of ​​the underground black market, the official trading area.

Compared with the free trading zone, the official trading area is a giant circular auditorium.

“This is our official trading area. Auctions are held every week, every month, every quarter, and every year.”

"There happens to be a monthly auction today. Compared to the weekly auction, there will be many good things in the monthly auction." The cheongsam woman walked in front of the three people, twisting her body, and walked to the door of the auditorium: "Especially in the quarterly auction and annual auction, there will even be Pokémon with king-level qualifications appearing."

A Pokémon with king-level qualifications?

Xia Yu frowned and looked at the cheongsam woman, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

“Although it has occurred very rarely, it has indeed occurred.”

…………

The door opened, revealing the scene inside the auditorium. The entire circular auditorium was very much like a gymnasium. The outer circle of the auditorium was the stands and boxes, and the inner circle was the auction table.

"Boss Lin, do you want to reserve a private room? Our private room fee is very cheap. You can pay by the time you use it, or you can pay for it for the whole year. The price is 200 per time, and the price is million per year. What do you think, Boss Lin, would you consider it?"

"Let's give it a try." Xia Yu paid without hesitation.

"Boss Lin is very generous. I will bring you the list of today's auction items right away."
