Capítulo 75: Spreading The News
Ryoichi worked quite fast. After hanging up the phone, he quickly arranged for his men to purchase some furniture from the Department Store. Then, he loaded the building materials from the construction site into a large truck.
Ryoichi was grateful to Hisoka for helping him when he was at his lowest point. He spared no effort to help the potential young man. He even sent a few Machoke together with the delivery trucks.
At the first ray of sunlight, two heavy-duty trucks arrived at the front gate of Hisoka's new gym.
Since the road in Dark City was too narrow to drive through, the drivers could only take a detour from the other side of the forest.
A middle-aged man climbed down from the truck and walked toward Hisoka, who was waiting at the front gate. Then, a few young men jumped down from the back of trucks, followed by three Machoke.
"Good morning, is this Mr. Hisoka's home?" asked the middle-aged man.
"Yeah, Ryoichi sent you guys, right?" Hisoka inclined his head slightly.
The man smiled and said, "Nice to meet you, Mr.Hisoka. Where should we put all this stuff?"
"Just put it in the main yard. I'll handle the rest," Hisoka replied.
"Rhydon, go and help them," He took a Pokeball from his belt and pressed the middle button.
Boom!
Rhydon appeared in front of everyone, shaking the ground slightly.
Everyone was taken aback by the sudden appearance of the four meters tall Rhydon. But after knowing it was Hisoka's Pokemon, they finally relaxed their tensed bodies.
They were awed by the giant Rhydon. Everyone knew that a big body meant power. They had no doubt that this Rhydon could solve them all with just a single punch. Not only that, but this Rhydon also had a slightly different coloring from a normal Rhydon.
Only the middle-aged man managed to calm himself down. The other worker didn't even dare to lift their heads after seeing the cold look in Rhydon's eyes.
The Machoke was also quite wary after Rhydon appeared, but after seeing that he didn't do anything, they quickly calmed down.
With the help of three Machoke and Rhydon, the building materials and furniture were moved inside the gym in less than half an hour.
After completing the task instructed by the foreman, they bid goodbye to Hisoka and left the place. They had to hurry back to the construction site. After all, they still had a lot of work to do before the project's end date.
Hisoka had determined the layout of his new house last night. And after asking for help from Granma Nana, Hisoka was able to contact a few men from the city to help him build his new house.
And with the help of his Pokemon, Hisoka decided to renovate a part of the compound.
For a whole week, many people in the city, including the people from Kaz and Yas Gym, heard the faint noise of working machinery coming from the southern part of the city. But everyone just shrugged it off, thinking it was nothing.
After installing a new arch at the front gate, his new gym was finally completed.
The old and dilapidated gym got a new fresh look. The front gate had been repainted. The ground had been flattened thoroughly using a bulldozer, which also served as his new arena for the challengers.
The rusty locks and old training equipment had been replaced with brand new equipment.
Hisoka had also planted several varieties of tree berries around his gym. This way, there was no need for him to buy them later in the future. Besides that, he had also built a new greenhouse, where he would plant some rare herbs later.
The garden in the backyard would serve as a resting area for Hisoka and his Pokemon to relax later. It retained its previous style with only some addition. His new house was built mainly from wood with modern home decoration. It had the same style as the houses in Dark City.
Just a few hours ago, Hisoka connected the house water pipe with the city's main water line. The first thing he did was to refill the now cleaned pond.
Kirlia also wasn't willing to make the house look dull. Under her suggestion, they had planted many flowers around his home to brighten it up.
Hisoka ordered these flowers and tree berries from the flower shop in Celadon City, which he had paid a lot for.
Celadon City was not only famous for its rainbow-colored city but it was also known for its floral diversity.
The Gym Leader of Celadon Gym, Erika, was a well-known botanist in Kanto. She had two famous shops. One was the perfume shop, where Hisoka had bought the special perfume for Feebas. The other was her high-quality herbs and tree saplings that she cultivated herself.
If there was a ranking of richest Gym Leader in Kanto, Hisoka was certain that Erika would be at the top of the list. Besides the city's tax revenue cut and the League allowance, her two shops also brought her a significant income every day.
"Well, Feebas can stay in this pond now," Hisoka nodded while taking a Pokeball from his belt.
Splash!
He aimed the Pokeball at the pond and pressed the middle button. A red light flashed, and Feebas appeared in the air before falling to the pond with a splash. After that, she swiftly swam around the pond happily before returning to Hisoka, blowing some bubbles. She was obviously quite happy with her new home.
Hisoka rubbed Feebas's head affectionately. He then took out a few Pokeblocks from his pocket and placed them in his hand. Her eyes lit up as she quickly ate all the Pokeblock in Hisoka's hand.
...
[Dark Gym]
Hisoka nodded with satisfaction after installing a new signboard at the arch.
'Let's wait for a few more days. I think many people should know about this later,' Hisoka thought while climbing down the folding ladder.
...
"Listen to me carefully! I have something important to tell you all. I heard that the official from the Pokemon Inspection Agency will come to this city soon. We must chase those guys from Kaz Gym soon, no matter what!"
A tall man wearing an orange scarf stood in front of the table. In front of him were several young people dressed in Yas Gym uniforms.
"Dark City doesn't need two gyms in this city. This time, don't show any mercy to them. Do you understand?" the tall man shouted hoarsely.
"Yes, sir!"
The tall man nodded in satisfaction after hearing the confident reply from his men.
"Master Yas, something bad happened!"
Suddenly, the door was pushed open abruptly. Then, a blue-haired girl wearing a red cap ran into the room with an anxious look on her face.
Yas's face became a little ugly after the girl interrupted them. He turned to her with a solemn expression and said, "Ran, how many times I have told you. If you want to become an excellent trainer, you must have a calm mentality. And please knock on the door first before interrupting us next time."
The girl named Ran looked beautiful and cute. She looked to be around 20 years old, wearing a blue scarf around her neck. She was also clothed in the green uniform of Yas Gym member.
She made a gulping sound and quickly bowed her head.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt you, Master Yas. But I have something important to tell you," she said apologetically.
Hearing the girl's sincere apology, Yas's stern face relaxed a little.
"It's fine. Just don't do it again. Now, why did you come into my office? Are those guys from Kaz Gym planning to do something to us?"
Ran was the only female trainer under Yas. Because of her cute and innocent appearance, she was often sent by Yaz to sneak around Kas Gym. Many people from Kaz Gym were smitten by her look and revealed some news to her. Due to her information, they always had the upper hand against the Kaz Gym.
"No, it's not that," Ran shook her head vehemently.
She took a deep breath as her face became serious. Then, she said, "When I was walking around the southern part of the city, I heard some people talking secretly about a new gym. Curious, I decided to take check it out. And lo and behold, you can't imagine my surprise when I saw a new gym near the South Forest."
"What!"
Yas slammed his hand on the table hard.
He stood up from his chair angrily and said, "You mean someone had opened a new gym in Dark City?"
Yas asked sharply.
"That's right," Ran nodded meekly.
"He also posts a message inviting young trainers to join his new gym. Oh yeah, his name is Hisoka," she continued.
After listening to the news reported by Ran, Yas became very angry. He never knew that someone else besides him and Kaz was interested in becoming a Gym Leader in this city.
Not many people wanted to come to Dark City because of its remote location and its status as a third-tier city. Those powerful trainers rather stay in the League.
Before Kaz and Yas arrived at Dark City, there were quite a number of private gyms in this city. But after driving them away, both former partners also turned against each other, fighting for the Gym Leader qualification.
That was why Yas was furious that someone else tried to barge into their fight.
Yas was a cautious person. Without knowing the specific strength of the opponent, he would not take any action against his new enemy.
'Yes, I think Kaz must have also heard the news. I don't believe that guy can stay patient with his violent temper. That guy must be preparing his men to destroy that new gym, right?' Yas thought, rubbing his chin with a smile.
'I hoped they both seriously injured each other,' he thought spitefully.
That way, he can defeat both of them later and become the new Dark City Gym Leader in one fell swoop.
Yas quickly made a plan in his mind when he thought about this.
His mouth couldn't help but curl slightly when he looked at the beautiful blue-haired girl in front of him.
"Ran! Come over here!"
"I'm coming!"
Ran stood in front of Yas respectfully.
"Don't be nervous. Just relax," Yas said kindly.
"Ran, I have a very important mission for you. If you manage to complete this, I think it won't be long for us to become the official Gym of Dark City. Can you do it for us?"
"Yes, Master Yas!" Ran shouted seriously.
"Good!" Yas nodded in satisfaction.
"I hope you can complete this mission soon. After I become the new Gym Leader, I'll let you become our new deputy. How about that?"
As soon as Yas said that, there was an uproar in the room. Many people looked at them in shock. There was also a trace of jealousy in their eyes.
"Is...is this true?" Ran stammered in disbelief.
"Yes, it is true," Yas nodded his head convincingly.
Then, he beckoned to Ran, who was excited to come to him. He whispered a few words in her ears for a while before sitting down on the chair.
Yas left Ran a few moments to herself while he drank some water, waiting for her decision.
Tap!
Tap!
"Well, can you do it?" Yas asked, tapping the table.
Ran quickly snapped out of her thoughts and nodded in excitement.
"No problem, Master! I can do it."
"Alright then, go," Yas waved his hands away.
After that, she quickly ran out of the room. Yas's previous promise made her so happy. Anyway, she only needed to find a way to provoke a conflict between the newly opened gym and Kaz Gym.
Looking at leaving back of the girl, Yas curled his lips in disdain.
'Heh. This girl thinks too much. Does she really think I'm going to let her become my deputy? What a foolish girl,' thought Yas.
...
"Are we going the correct way? I haven't seen any gym at all except trees and more trees."
Three young men with different hair colors were walking through a forest. They all wore blue clothing with a big Y in the front.
The one who complained just now was the green-haired young man on the left.
Then, a yellow-haired man smiled and waved the flyer in his hand.
"Can't you see it? It's clearly written on this poster. We are getting close to that gym. Just a few hundred meters left. Anyway, Boss Kaz had asked us to check the gym first. If it's just a weak guy, we'll destroy his new gym."
"That's right!"
A red-haired man walking on the right side nodded in agreement.
"Let's see if this guy is strong, as he says in the poster. Heh. I think this new gym just wanted to make trouble for us," he grinned.
