Pokémon: The Strongest Mercenary

Chapter 257: The Guardian of Water Appears

"Sniper shot at the tree owl, ghost·shadow piercing arrow!"

The command sounded and the sharp arrow was shot out at a speed faster than lightning, taking the target's life in the blink of an eye.

"Okay, that's enough."

"Next, it's time to negotiate with the alliance."

"Speaking of which, the Hunter Guild is really greedy. After only having a slight advantage, they can't wait to get their hands on my Poni Island."

After collecting the spoils, Roll no longer planned to continue blocking the alliance's reinforcements.

Especially during this period of time, thanks to Roll's efforts, the Hunter Guild has gone from being at a disadvantage to being able to catch its breath, and then to being in an advantageous position now.

Unfortunately, the Hunter Guild was too greedy. After gaining the upper hand, they wanted to take back the lost Poni Island.

To be on the safe side, the Hunter Guild did not take direct action, but first sent out a team composed of several Elite-level trainers to investigate the situation on Poni Island.

Before they landed on the island, Rawl had already discovered their presence through the invisible monitor.

To be on the safe side, Roll did not let the wild Pokémon on the beach take action, but let them enter the island first.

When they gradually went deeper and then separated to gather intelligence, Rawl let the people from the war department take action.

Without relying on the power of wild Pokémon, the people from the War Department wiped out all the people sent by the Hunter Guild with just one round of raids.

"Next, I just have to wait for the alliance to contact me."

After returning to Poni Island, Roll sent the message he had prepared long ago to the Alliance in the Alola region.

On the other hand, the alliance that received the news from Roll immediately held a meeting on this matter.

"I would like to hear your opinions on this matter first."

After everyone had read the copy of the message sent by Rawl, Iguchi then asked.

"This kind of thing must never be allowed to happen!"

"If we give Poni Island to him today in order to successfully develop the Alola region, it might pose a greater threat to the Alola region in the future!"

"Besides, we can't be sure whether what the other party said is true or false. What if he is just trying to trick us!?"

"You and I both know how difficult it is to gain the recognition of the indigenous people, not to mention the guardian gods. And he also has to recruit the wild tribes in the forest. I don't think he can do this alone!"

"I think we can completely ignore him and deal with this little trouble after we have dealt with the Hunter's Guild. If you are worried that he will cause any trouble, then give me a team of men and I will conquer the entire Poni Island right away!"

As soon as Iguchi finished speaking, a champion-level trainer immediately spoke out in objection!

"What if it's true!?"

"Have you ever thought about what if the other party is not bluffing?"

"It's certainly difficult to gain the approval of the patron saint, but don't forget that some people are born blessed by God, which makes them have a kind of ability that can be recognized by the legendary Pokémon!"

"And aren't you aware of the faith that the natives of the Alola region have in these guardian gods? If he gets the approval of the guardian gods, then it will be easy for him to lead the natives of Poni Island!"

"Especially the materials, equipment, resources, etc. that he exchanged with his contribution points. I think they have all been invested in these natives. If he really conquers the wild Pokémon on Poni Island as he said."

"Everyone here knows very well how stubborn these wild Pokémon are. Even if we can get Poni Island, the resources there will be depleted and most of the wild Pokémon will be lost."

“Not to mention that there should be some special relationship between the four guardian gods. If this incident leads to a bad relationship between the guardian gods, then not only Poni Island, but even other islands may be unstable.”

"Finally, even if we can conquer the entire Alola region, it will probably take decades for it to recover, not to mention the price we will have to pay and the trainers who may be sacrificed!"

"So according to what you said, we can only choose to cooperate with him, and then hand over Poni Island to others, and wait for him to become a greater threat than the Hunter Guild!?"

After hearing what Shimura said, Pamela immediately sneered.

"I didn't say that. I just think that we need to first investigate the power that the other party currently holds, and then make a detailed plan to deal with it, instead of rushing in like a reckless man!"

In response to Pamela's ridicule, Shimura fought back mercilessly.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Jingkou spoke up to stop them.

"Alright! I called this meeting to discuss what to do, not for you to have a fight!"

"Also, don't forget that the one occupying Poni Island now is also a trainer from the alliance, not an enemy. What we need to do is try to win him over so that he can integrate into the alliance."

"I know what you're thinking. You think that since he's occupying Poni Island, any power you may have will be taken away by him in the future when the Hunter Guild of the Alola region is resolved."

"But as I said before, the distribution of power in the Alola region depends on your own ability. If you have the ability to get the promise of the guardian god, conquer the wild Pokémon on an island, eliminate the hunter guild on the island, and make the indigenous people on the island willing to listen to you, then what does it matter if this island is given to you!?"

"Don't bother with this matter. I'll arrange for someone to contact him and consider what to do next based on his situation."

"I still say that. If you two have the ability, you can go to Melemele Island wherever it is!"

After saying that, Jingkou just stood up and left.

It is said that there is a lot of intrigue within terrorist organizations, but Iguchi knows very well that there is just as much intrigue within the alliance.

Just like now, whether it is what Rawl does, or what Pamela and Shimura do, they are all thinking about themselves.

At the very least, Rawl was able to conquer an island on his own.

The subsequent cooperation will depend on whether he can protect Poni Island with his strength.

If possible, as Shimura said, there would be no harm in giving Poni Island to Roll.

After all, Roll is also a league trainer, and Poni Island is under the control of the league, and that is enough.

So, after the meeting, Iguchi arranged for his champion-level trainers to contact Roll.

If Pamela and Shimura were allowed to do it, Iguchi would have no doubt about the final result, which would inevitably end in a breakdown of the negotiations.
