Now that he is done here, he is sure that Guzma will do the right thing and call back all his goons who are still causing trouble around Alola.
With nothing else to do, Julian hops on Charizard's back and flies away, leaving behind the bloody, bruised, and beaten-up Guzma, who continues to whimper in pain.
Plumeria who has been in hiding all along quickly gets out and rushes towards Guzma and checks on him, she couldn't help but cringe seeing the state Guzma has been left in but she fortitudes her mind and picks up Guzma and drags him back to their hideout.
Once inside, she quickly relays the message to all the goons who are out there, causing trouble to stop doing it and return to the base or go home. She heard Julian's words directed toward Guzma and knew that she needs to act fast.
Guzma is in no state to even speak right now and she needs to provide him with medical attention right now.
After sending the messages to all the goons, she starts taking care of Guzma. She doesn't know what is the reason behind Guzma taking such action which led to him being pummeled in such a bad shape.
She didn't understand when Guzma told the goons to wreak havoc around Alola, but since she is just an admin; she isn't in a position to question his decision. He didn't speak to her about it and kept it to himself and now, because of his decisions; he got his face punched in pretty bad.
For the first time, she wondered if she did the right thing by joining Team Skull. When she first saw Team Skull, she thought they were pretty cool, and after seeing Guzma in action, she wanted to join his gang and she did.
At first, she was just a low-level grunt but soon rose up the rankings and became his right-hand woman. But as she got close to Guzma; she realized that he is not as cool as she thought him to be.
And today's incident might be the one that broke the camel's back.
Plumeria also realizes that she is no longer a kid, and that she needs to make drastic life decisions to create a better future for herself. This gang shit won't work for her any longer.
Plumeria 'I think it's time for me to leave all this behind and start living a normal life. At least my mom will be happy seeing me back'
She thinks as she aids Guzma. This will be her last service to Guzma. She will aid him till he recovers and then leave.
She saw with her own eyes what happens to people who mess with stuff they shouldn't. Guzma tried to do something big, and he got put in his place.
Plumeria is smart enough to not make the same mistakes. She decides to get out of this life the more she thinks about it.
_____________________
Julian returns to the police office and sees a few officers running out of the office. Even though Julian has taken care of Guzma, he knows that things won't settle down in an instant and it will take some time, as some goons will go rogue or they still haven't received the message.
He walks into the police office and finds officer Jenny talking to some of her subordinates, handing out cases, and sending them away.
She notices his arrival and gestures for him to head toward her office. Julian follows her inside and they both take their seats.
Jenny "You are back already?"
She asks, confused. She thought Julian went to deal with Team Skull leaders so she doesn't understand what he is doing here.
Julian "Yes, it's over"
Julian says.
Jenny "Wait, what do you mean by, it's over?"
she asks, confused.
Julian "I took care of the Team Skull leader. He will inform his goons to back off and never bother the people again. If they do bother the people, you can contact me personally"
Julian says.
Jenny "You mean you were able to deal with them all?"
She asks shocked.
Julian "I told you, I have my ways"
He says.
Jenny "Then what about those Team Skull goons that are still harassing people out there?"
She asks wondering if Julian is lying to her as there are still calls coming in about harassment.
Julian "Of course, some of them still have not been updated about their situation. Give it a few hours. It should be all calmed down"
Julian reassures her
Hearing this, Jenny can't be happier. She was really tensed because of all the chaos Team Skull was making all around her district, and it was not just her, all her cousins and sisters were also facing the same problem.
So if what Julian said is true, then their problem is solved.
Julian "I think you should inform the other Jennys about it as well"
Julian advised.
Jenny nodded and quickly updated a few Jennys and asked them to relay the message to other Jennys as well.
Julian "There is also one more thing,"
Julian brings the conversation back to the main topic.
Jenny "What is it?"
She asks.
Julian "I had a little talk with Guzma, the leader of Team Skull and he said he did this because someone paid him to do so. I want you to put people undercover all over Alola to find any suspicious people. I will also be looking for that person.
If you do find someone, don't take any action as he can be dangerous, instead inform me. Relay this message to the other Jennys as well.
I want this to be confidential and only be known between the Jennys and no one else"
Julian explains the situation and lays out the plan to search for this person.
Jenny realizes that this is an even bigger problem than she expected, so she quickly gets to work.
Julian also bids his farewell, as he still needs to find this person.

Julian wondered how he can find this man responsible for making all this fuss. Julian knew he had to find this person fast, but he doesn't like his chances, as this person who came in contact with Guzma might have already fled Alola.
Julian could have prevented his escape if he escaped by water, but Julian has no control over the sky, but Julian still has to try.
He then called out some of his pokemons to scout out every island of Alola.
Gengar, Kyurem, Aegislash, and Charizard separated from Julian before starting to comb down all the islands thoroughly.
Though it will take some time, Julian is confident in their ability to at least find something and report back to him.
Julian also started looking around on foot and talked to a few locals on this island to see if they saw anyone suspicious. And it seems that he is out of luck.
None of these people have seen anyone suspicious, but just as Julian was about to give up and head back to his hotel room, Gengar arrived by his side and informed him about something he found.
With Gengar taking the lead, Julian quickly followed right behind him, which took him to a small run-down-looking building which doesn't seem to house anyone.
Julian followed Gengar into the building and found himself in front of a makeshift tent with some food waste, an extinguished fire pit, and in the extinguished fire pit is some burnt clothes.
One can easily tell that someone burnt down their clothes here and quickly took off.
Julian "This dude didn't stay for long. He must have already left or has completely changed his look"
Julian murmured, but then he suddenly thought of something. He looked at Gengar and spoke.
Julian "Gengar, trace the aura around those burnt clothes and try to find if anyone has a similar aura around the Alola islands"
Gengar nodded with a grin and easily picked up the unique aura around the burnt cloth.
Every living being has a unique aura that distinguishes them from others and Gengar being able to control and use an overwhelming amount of psychic energy can easily trace such aura.
That is why Julian is never worried about leaving Gengar behind, because he will always be able to find Julian no matter where he is in the world.
Julian doesn't have much confidence in finding this person, as he could have already fled from Alola, but it is still better to give it one last shot.
It will take Gengar some time for him to cover the whole of Alola, so Julian decides to head back to his hotel and spend his day training his young pokemons.
Returning to his hotel, he didn't bother putting his little pokemons through any physical training. Instead, he made them focus on their energy manipulation.
Now that his Grubbin has evolved into Charjabug, he can now start leveling up by focusing on his energy control.
Physical training would not do much to his improvement because he won't evolve through normal means anymore.
To evolve further, Charjabug will need a thunder stone and Julian has a few of them in his dimensional pouch.
But Julian doesn't think Charjabug is still ready to evolve, and that is why he needs to perfect his energy control.
The newest addition to his team, Marshadow, is already very good at energy manipulation, but that is where he has come up against a wall.
Though he has learned everything by himself and done it exceptionally, without any guidance, he will be stuck at his current level for a long time.
So now, he is focused on teaching Marshadow energy control and how to increase power. By doing so, Marshadow will level up much faster.
____________________
While Julian is training his Pokemon, Gengar is tracing down the aura of the unknown man and he found himself on the edge of the island. Staring at the invisible aura that has already left the island.
Looks like the unknown man has already left the island. Gengar could, of course, follow the aura all the way to where the man is headed, but he decided to inform Julian first about it.
______________________
A few hours have passed and Julian can already see minor improvements in his pokemons, but these improvements might slow down, so he will need to continue changing his methods.
As he is about to end their training session, Gengar floated in and informed him about the escape of the unknown man.
Julian "Expected as much. I want you to follow this man back to where he went and observe everyone he meets and talks to."
Julian instructed.
Receiving the mission, Gengar saluted Julian and left the room. Going on another spy mission.
And Julian brought his attention back to his pokemons. Without Gengar, his shadow will be empty and he has a perfect replacement for it until Gengar comes back.
Marshadow.
Though Marshadow is not as skilled as Gengar, he can still be Julian's eyes from his shadow.
