Chapitre 316: Chapter 48 Reinforcements arrived
Alex rode his pidgeot along Cynthia and to and flew a distance from the ship to greet the reinforcements arriving from the Hoenn League Branch. The storm has calmed down and normal operations can be carried out.
They await their arrival with their flying type Pokemon. Soon, a larger group of flying pokemons were seen and almost everyone knew they were the reinforcement.
Even though Alex knows that they are part of the reinforcements, he still acted skeptic.
He shouted out while his Pidgeot has a blue silhouette surrounding him, " Who are you? What are you all doing here?"
Seeing them on their path, the flying reinforcements stopped in front of him. There were many flying pokemons and on their back are around thirty or so people.
Their leader, a middle-aged man who is in his late forties, with some wrinkles under his eyes came forward and replied, " I am Jonathan, the Ace trainer from Hoenn League. I have been ordered to provide support to the people trapped in SS Smith and assist them in evacuation."
Alex was a bit less vigilant but he remembered that there was someone who controlled the water pokemons and sent them to attack him.
" What proof do you have to prove it?" He questioned Jonathan and asked for proof of identity.
One of the people in this arriving group was enraged by this, and shouted in anger," What the hell? We are here to help you lot. Why should we show any proof of a brat like you? Who the hell do you think you are?"
Others are also angered by this. They are here to help and have endured that bizzare storm but they are instead questioned, this is something which isn't acceptable to them.
" Robert, calm down." Jonathan turns to his companions and asked him to calm down and not aggregate matters beyond the limit.
While Jonathan is calming down his enraged companions, Cynthia asked Alex, " what are we going to do if they don't show any proof?"
" Then we will have to deal with them. That attack was preplanned. Be prepared to attack with intent to kill when things go south," Alex warned them.
Alex isn't affected by their anger in their words and once again spoke out, " If you don't have any proof, then leave the area. Otherwise, we will initiate the attack. "
He issued them a warning. He also released a healthy bout of Killing intent to show them just how serious he really is.
These were enough to make everyone understand he is serious. He will go for the kill if they don't listen to him.
Jonathan tried to calm him down and tried to appease him. "I am sorry about Robert. He is tired now. We are delayed for hours because of the storm and his relatives are also on that ship.
So please forgive me. Here, let me show you my proof. "
He pulled out an ID to show his identity.
" Throw it in the air," Alex said to him.
Others don't know what it means but Jonathan as a Senior Ace trainer knows where he is going. The thing which he is using is a secret known only to top level.
This made him understand that the boy in front of him is not only strong for his age but also someone eligible for certain secrets.
He did as instructed and threw it in the air.
The ID after rising for some height started to fall, and its way of fall is similar to that of a feather.
But this fall isn't the valid measure to distinguish them, there is a certain image which is projected when the rays of the sun fall on it.
It shows the image of Moltres when viewed from a certain angle and at a certain point.
Although the image can be replicated, the majesty of the legendary Pokemon can't.
Jonathan caught the card and looks at him.
Alex lowered his guard and started to move towards the ship. After flying for a distance he uttered, "Follow me."
He heads for the ship with the reinforcement following behind him on their respective flying pokemons.
When they landed at the ship, the first thing that attracted their attention is the ten dead bodies tied to an artificial iron pole on the deck.
They were scared, from the look of pain and terror on their faces. They felt they might be next to join that group, if these kids are angered.
Jonathan noted the uneasiness if his group and asked Alex, " Who are they?"
Jonathan answer came in the cold words of Alex, " Those are the scums who dared to disobey our orders at times of Martial Law and caused chaos. "
" But isn't it a bit too much to kill them?" One of the female members of the group asked. She is the nurse of the group sent to aid injured people.
Alex turns to look at her. She appeared to be someone only a few years older than him with short pink hairs. She has an appearance resembling Nurse Joy.
He felt she might be one of the medics in the group and can understand what they might have gone through before their death.
That sort of torture might be brutal.
" The Pokemon League has given us free hand on how to deal with them. So I used this method to appease the anger to the others while punishing them. With this, others won't dare to cross or disobey the league later." Elsa said with a hardened look when he saw the Nurse feeling sympathy for him.
" But you cannot just..." She tried to counter them but Alex interrupted her.
" You are here to make sure that every injured person is treated properly and there is no life-threatening injury.
We gave the first aid to all the injured but we don't have any Pokemon who specialize in healing or have any specialized doctor on us. The only ones here are part-timers." Alex reminded her what she is there for and not to pry on other things.
" But there must be someone who can deal with those cases, in this ship." She asked thinking someone might be here to deal with such situations.
" Those people have also forgotten about the meaning of Martial Law. They felt that they can get away because their existence has significant value.
After confirming none of the injured have any injury which seems life-threatening, they were also put to death along with others. " Alex revealed it to them.
This sentence made Robert very anxious. He feared that the target which he came to rescue may also be among those people who are dealt with.
To confirm his assumption, he asked Alex, "Are all the guilty either punished or executed?"
" For the people who broke discipline in times of the Martial Law and wreaked havoc on the ship, they are all put to death, without exception." He said to him and looked right into his eyes.
" But there were some big guys too in that group, weren't they? Are they also...." He didn't finish but the meaning of the left off words are evident.
" Yes, all of them are dealt with. " Alex said.
This time everyone eyes even that of Jonathan are widened beyond extreme. This incident is going to cause a lot of problem in the future and the one's involved in those problem will not only be Alex.
