Bab 15: Chapter 15
(Pokemon Recommendation)
[1045 Words]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I move my gaze to the Team Rocket Grunt who remain pinned.
I stood up breaking him free but because of the mark, he didn't fight back and just plainly kneel in front of me.
I move my eyes at his waist specifically his belt.
I appraise his two pokeballs and was slightly stunned seeing that he possess a level 20 Diglett which has a Yellow Aptitude and level 19 Geodude with a Light Yellow Aptitude.
"What's your name?" I said with a serious voice while looking at him coldly.
"My name is Uno sir" He replied calmly like a professional.
I nodded at his cooperation and wits as I continue asking for more information.
"What's your purpose of coming here?" I ask with a serious voice looking down at the kneeling man.
"We are ordered by Madam Ariana to observe anything unusual around the Toriko Town." He once again, responds with a professional and direct answer.
"Who is this Ariana? how strong is she?" I ask with a hint of curiosity.
"Madam Ariana, 23 years old Officer Rank at Team Rocket. there is even some rumor going around that Madam Ariana was an Advance rank Trainer but her pokemons' were unknown." He answered without a single hesitation, telling all of the useful information and leaving those that are not.
"I see, who else did the Rocket send?" I continue collecting more information about the Team Rocket and who they send.
After a while, Uno no longer has anything he knew to say as I already ask all the valuable ones and those that are not, I have no interest in those.
"Ok, you could go now and don't forget what I told you" I dismiss the Rocket Grunt but not before making sure he remember what I said.
"If by chance Ariana notices my colleague's disappearance my reason would be; We are attacked by th village major and Dos (the other Grunts name) sacrifices himself to save me. Did I miss anything, sir?" Uno recites back to me as I nodded in agreement.
"Now go" I said after making sure he remembers.
He respectfully bowed to me and continue on his way to their base.
I watch as his silhouette disappears before heading back to the village where Rick's house was. not before picking up his colleague Pokemon tho.
His colleague Pokemon compared to him was much weaker but their Aptitude we're much higher.
A level 15 Zubat with a Deep Yellow Aptitude and a Level 13 Sandshrew with a Light Green Aptitude.
I put the two Pokeball in my hands to the inventory as I continue walking to Rick's house direction while thinking about all of the information Uno told me.
I smile thinking of how much I learned about them.
I collected some general knowledge about their members and motives but there are still unsolved questions I have that Uno didn't but I'll just let it be for now.
Ariana aside, Team Rocket also sends 3 Captain Rank Rocket members namely, 2 middle class and a High class.
A middle-class Captain possesses a strength of a middle intermediate Stage Trainer while High-class strength varies from Late-stage Intermediate Rank Trainer to a Semi-Advanced Rank trainer.
And there are also 200 Grunts with them lurking around the Inner Layer of Toriko Town living with normal people.
'Their members are quite trained, I'll give them credit for that' I thought thinking of Uno's professionalism and calmness and the guard's unusual strength at the hotel I stayed in.
Knowing that Team Rockets were blending with normal people in Inner Layer plus his unusual strength, It's already obvious that the Guard was a Rocket Grunt.
"Master!" I was slightly startled by the sudden voice as my thought were interrupted, I saw in a distance Rick waving at me.
Because of thinking about Team Rockets, I didn't even notice that I have arrived at the village.
I walk toward Rick's direction as I saw other people standing behind him with worries plastered on their faces.
"Where have you been master?!" As soon as I arrive at their spot, Rick immediately hold my shoulder and asked me.
"I'm fine" I said slightly annoyed which makes Rick shiver and instantly let go of my shoulder.
"Call everyone! you go to Jerry's Library and tell him to come here with everyone." I shouted at them with a serious voice then point to a random guy to pick Jerry up.
Soon after, all of my subordinates have arrived kneeling in front of me orderly forming a triangle.
"Is there a problem master?" Trevor, who was standing on the very front asked while making sure not to make eye contact by staring at the ground.
(Trevor Appearance)
"I saw some Team Rocket member earlier" Was the only thing I say but it was enough to scare them as they all showed a scared expression whispering at each other.
"Silence! You are all in the presence of master Tobi!" Trevor shouted to the people who lower their heads in shame.
I give Trevor a little nod of satisfaction as I once again raise my head facing all of my subordinates.
"Don't be afraid! You might not be as strong as them but that will change, I'll have Trevor and the others caught you Pokemon that would be your companion, don't disappoint me!" Even though Trevor was a Trainer and my unofficial Right hand, their loyalty after all was directed towards me so when I said that, the fear in their eyes slowly vanish and was replaced with dedication.
I smiled seeing the changes in their mood.
I, who was trained to be ruler since I was a child, of course knew that a true leader knows how important people's emotions are, a brave person is better than a coward who could stab you in the back.
"Long Live Master!!" Trevor shouted and soon after the others also follow.
"LONG LIVE MASTER!!!" A hundred people shouted at the same time startling the Pokemon's nearby.
