Pokémon: Forced to Become a Dragon Master at the Beginning

Hearing Lu Tinghe's question, Xia Yu showed a thoughtful expression on his face. After thinking for a while, he said: "After decades of development, the underground world of Black Dragon City has a wide range of businesses and a huge scale. It is also the largest underground world in the entire southwest region."

"Moreover, the forces behind them are complicated and deeply involved. In addition, Black Dragon City is located in a border area. Once there is any disturbance, these people will directly cross the border and flee abroad. We have no way to stop them."

"I feel that it is not very realistic to completely destroy the underground world. Even if we destroy the underground black market in Black Dragon City, there will be underground black markets in White Dragon City and Red Dragon City."

"Go on, what do you want to do?" Lu Tinghe asked expressionlessly.

"I think the best way is to not destroy the existing situation in the underground world, and the Pokémon Association can intervene and supervise the transactions in the underground black market." Xia Yu said, "But I don't know how to do it specifically."

There is a reason why the underground world can exist for decades.

Although Xia Yu has some strength, he is not naive enough to think that he can change the current situation by himself.

"Is there anything else?" Lu Tinghe continued to ask.

"No more." Xia Yu replied honestly.

Lu Tinghe looked at Xia Yu and said slowly: "You are just like your master said, very cunning. You said so much, but it's equivalent to saying nothing."

"Do you know who the real master behind the underground world is?" Lu Tinghe looked at Xia Yu and asked.

"I don't know." Xia Yu shook his head honestly. This was also what he thought was the scariest thing. He had been investigating for half a day but didn't even know who the real boss behind the underground world was.

"The background of the underground world is complicated. There are more than a dozen shareholders, large and small. The four largest shareholders are the Qi family, the Tan family, the Liu family, and the Chen family. Each of these four families has produced a champion in the southwest region. Some champions only held the title for a few short years, while others have been champions for more than ten years."

"This is also the reason why the underground black market has been able to survive for so many years and has become bigger and bigger." Lu Tinghe said with a smile: "And even if you investigate, the most you can find is the second son of the Duan family, Duan Qisen."

"This is just the power within China, and they have many partners outside China, and behind these partners stands at least one of the top four kings. Do you think you can solve the underground black market issue by yourself?"

"Investigating Heilong City is never easy. Letting you young people come to investigate is just to train you. If you really have the ability to investigate those families, it may not be a good thing for you. You may lose your life if you are not careful." Lu Tinghe looked at Xia Yu seriously and said.

"The first mission given to you was never meant for you to complete, and you can't complete it at all. Our purpose is just to make you realize the cruelty of this world and learn to compromise."

"Do what you are capable of." Lu Tinghe looked at Xia Yu and said, "Do what you can and protect yourself."

"But something did happen this morning. A famous foreign internet celebrity exposed his experience of being kidnapped and the underground black market in Heilong City." Lu Tinghe looked at Xia Yu and said, "But this is not enough to bring them down. At most, it will only cause the Qi family to suffer some damage and pay a price."

"It's not that easy to completely solve the underground black market. You have to have at least champion-level strength to challenge them."

"Xia Yu, you have to get stronger. Even a champion has things he can't solve. Only when your strength truly stands at the top of everyone else, when it's lonely at the top, will you have the ability to change the rules and make rules for the entire world."

After listening to Lu Tinghe's words, Xia Yu fell into deep thought. In this unique world, strength is of vital importance. Only with strength can one have the capital to pursue power.

When Lu Tinghe said this, he suddenly paused and said, "In fact, sometimes I admire Duan Hongzhi. He has the ability to change the world. The families in the entire North China region hate and fear him. The title of Iron-Blooded Champion is not for nothing."

At this point, Lu Tinghe turned his gaze to Xia Yu: "Your master and I are very optimistic about you. This first lesson has been given to you. Don't be too depressed. Adjust your mood. The next task assigned to you will be a real task."

"Be well prepared. Let me tell you something. The next mission is to investigate the owner of a small place. Although the mission is a bit difficult, it should be no problem for you."

"I understand. Thank you, uncle-master." Xia Yu nodded and responded.

"Okay, you go back first. I have something to do in the afternoon. If you have anything, you can come to me directly. Just tell my secretary Xiao Zhang in advance." Lu Tinghe said to Xia Yu with a smile.

Walking out of Yuzhou Hotel, Xia Yu looked up at the dazzling sun, which was particularly blinding. Then he lowered his head and walked into the crowded crowd.

…………

Shan State, adjacent to China, has excellent natural conditions and extremely rich resources.

Logically speaking, Shan State has a unique geographical advantage and should have developed very well, but in fact, Shan State is one of the least developed countries in the world.

Apart from a few modern cities, most of Shan State is still primitive rural area.

More than half of the people here make a living by farming, and among the rest, a considerable number make a living by fraud, robbery, kidnapping, organ trading, and slave trade. Only a small number of them are actually engaged in legitimate business.

At the same time, Shan State has been rated as one of the most dangerous regions in the world. A large number of poaching gangs have taken root here. If you want to survive here, force is the only way to survive.

However, precisely because of this, Shan State is also a paradise for criminals, because as long as one has enough strength, he can act like a tyrant in Shan State.

…………

After Xia Yu, Xiao Wanyu and Xie Tianming quietly entered Shan State, they came to a village called Wengu in Shan State.

The unique stilt buildings look more rustic, and the setting sun casts a golden glow over the fields.

A woman in a tube skirt walks on a muddy country road.

In the noisy pub, Xia Yu and others, who were dressed in high-end clothes, seemed out of place with the people around them. While drinking, many people would look at Xia Yu and others from time to time.

Especially Xiao Wanyu, who had a curvy figure, was like the brightest pearl in the tavern, attracting everyone's attention. Even though Xiao Wanyu wore a mask and wrapped her body tightly, her fair wrists could still be seen.

Many people even bet with the people around them that this must be a beautiful woman.

It is rare for them to see women with fair skin like Xiao Wanyu. Shan State is located in a tropical region with abundant sunshine and rainfall, which makes the women here generally have dark skin.

"Here they come." Xia Yu looked into the distance and saw several one-horned rhinos carrying Gao Yanxin and others appearing on the muddy road in the village.

After not seeing each other for half a year, Gao Yanxin had a new scar on his face, and he looked more mature, with bronze skin and bulging muscles.

"Gao Yanxin from the Mack Group, why is he here? Go, go, go quickly."

"The boss owes you money first."

"Why did he come to Wengu?"
