Pokémon: Join Team Rocket at the Beginning

"You think too highly of me," Yang Ming stood up slowly, "In essence, I am the same kind of person as those guys."

"Yang Ming, you are such a bastard, what a bastard!" Xiao Qian covered her face and cried, "Find an excuse and say that you joined Team Rocket out of desperation, then I will definitely believe you."

"No matter how lame the excuse is, why, why do you have to admit such a cruel fact..."

"You know, the moon can actually lie," Yang Ming said slowly, as if explaining something, "it doesn't actually emit light, it just reflects the sun's light."

“But the moon is more trustworthy than the sun, because you can look it straight in the face and its lies will not hurt you.”

"But I am not the moon. I would rather choose a sharp knife that hurts people than a harmless lie."

"It's almost time, I should go too." As if he couldn't continue his story, Yang Ming stood up and was about to leave. "I have already released all the trainers in the Manjin Gym, you can rest assured about that."

After hearing this, Xiao Qian's dull eyes regained some light.

"I will try my best to persuade my superiors to allow you to move around freely here. As long as you don't leave this branch, everything will be like being at home."

"Then take care of yourself and remember to eat."

After a long time, Xiao Qian raised her head and uttered words as soft as a mosquito's whisper in the direction where Yang Ming left.

"……Thank you."

Not long after Yang Ming left the cell, he ran into Feng Lu head-on.

"I just heard crying in the room. What happened?"

Feng Lu looked at Yang Ming curiously and found some strange water stains on his collar.

"No, nothing happened..." Yang Ming quickly denied.

"Then why did she start crying as soon as you came in?" Feng Lu came closer to him, "Did you bully her?"

“…Well, maybe…” Yang Ming turned his face away feeling somewhat guilty.

"How can that be possible! Since you have bullied someone, you must be responsible for her. How can you just walk away?"

"Eh? What are you talking about?"

In order to avoid being misunderstood, Yang Ming had no choice but to tell Feng Lu the whole story.

"So that's how it is..." Feng Lu suddenly realized, "So she knew you earlier than I did."

"Yes, that's why she thinks I deceived her." Yang Ming sighed.

"But I don't think Team Rocket's identity is a big deal," Feng Lu said with some disapproval, "Is she really that unacceptable?"

"Then let me put it another way. If I join Team Plasma, can you accept my identity?"

"Absolutely not!" Feng Lu suddenly became excited, "I will get you out of this den of thieves even if it costs me my life!"

"That's right. In fact, her idea is similar to yours," Yang Ming suddenly said, "By the way, can I ask you for a favor?"

"Just tell me what our relationship is. No need to be so polite."

"I want you to persuade her for me," Yang Ming whispered, "To be honest, I'm not good at handling this kind of thing, and judging from her current appearance, she probably hates me to death, so I can only ask you, a girl as well, to help her out."

"Alas, there's really nothing I can do about you," Feng Lu nodded helplessly, "But you also have to try to learn how to comfort girls."

"Haha, I may never be able to learn it." Seeing Feng Lu nodded in agreement, Yang Ming simply stopped pretending and hurried away. "Then I'll leave this place to you. I'm going to 'HAPPY' alone. Bye~"

Looking at Yang Ming's speeding figure, Feng Lu felt speechless.

"Is it so painful for you to talk to girls?"

Yang Ming immediately came to the training ground and frantically trained himself and his Pokémon, hoping to dilute the confusion in his heart through the excitement brought by the training.

"Cool--!"

Yang Ming lay on the sand, breathing heavily, not caring at all about the rough feeling under him. For him, this was ten times more satisfying and enjoyable than comforting a girl.

"I didn't expect you to come back so early. Aren't you going to check on the prisoners?"

Victor also came in. This guy has treated this place as his own during this period of time.

"They are just some small characters who have not yet reached the elite level. I am too lazy to spend time on them. Let them starve for a few meals first. When they are relaxed, it will be easier to persuade them to surrender." Yang Ming said lightly, "By the way, have you finished your business?"

Victor nodded. "Well, this negotiation is the final step in the alliance between the two parties, so it's just a formality. We'll just sign the agreement and that's it."

"By the way, I think you're a little off, are you in trouble?"

"That's not the case. Rather than that, how about we have a sparring match first?"

"Okay!"

The two grown men hit it off immediately. Although Yang Ming's overall strength was inferior to Victor's, they could still have a brief contest if the latter did not use mega evolution.

After a series of fierce battles, both of them and their Pokémon were extremely satisfied.

"Fighting is indeed more interesting," Yang Ming found a stone and sat down, "You don't have to think about anything, you don't have to worry about anything, as long as you invest your soul and bet your life, you can feel the climax of the collision of flesh and blood. This is much more refreshing than dealing with some twisted and tangled things."

"Really? I don't think so." Victor squatted on a big wooden stake, his eyes deep. "If it's just a friendly exchange between friends, then I can accept it. But killing people will always make people feel unhappy."

"Maybe," Yang Ming looked up at the ceiling, "I couldn't accept the idea of ​​'ending life with my own hands' at first. But now, I have taken so many lives that I can hardly count them."

"Perhaps this is fate. No matter how you and I try to escape, we will eventually end up on this path."

…………

Yuanzhu City was silent under the night. After the last shocking war, this thousand-year-old city had become a ruin. The citizens who originally lived here were temporarily resettled elsewhere. Now, except for the roar of construction machines rebuilding homes during the day, there was almost no pedestrian at night.

In the last catastrophe, the only building that was not damaged besides the Bell Tower was the Burnt Tower. At this time, a large number of masters gathered here. They were all representatives of major forces in the entire Johto region. They came here to discuss how to deal with the huge riot caused by Bixias.

As the representative of the alliance, Du was elected to sit at the top, but even so, his face still did not look very good.

Because opposite him sat a green-haired man dressed in white.

Apollo, the leader of the Rockets.
