With the help of his powerful Weezing and Arbok, the leader of the bikers managed to break through the League members' blockade on his motorcycle. He sped towards an opening, which led straight to the restaurant where Sato was dining.
Arbok, leading the way, violently spewed Acid, dissolving one of the restaurant's walls and creating a large hole. The biker leader then drove through the opening, causing chaos as he crashed into the restaurant. The entire place erupted into confusion as people scrambled in panic.
The biker leader's goal was clear: find an escape route, specifically the back door of the restaurant. He immediately ordered Arbok to grab a waiteress and force them to reveal its location.
At the same time, Weezing released a dense cloud of black smoke, filling the entire first floor of the restaurant and intensifying the chaos. However, things took an unexpected turn. The waitress Arbok grabbed fainted out of sheer terror as soon as the intimidating Pokémon got hold of her.
Now, with the restaurant shrouded in thick smoke, the biker leader's plan backfired. The dark fog, intended to obscure everyone's vision, also hindered his own. Trapped in the smoke-filled restaurant, he unintentionally cornered himself.
Moreover, the black smoke released by Weezing was far more toxic than that of a Koffing. Many guests and staff members, having inhaled too much of the poisonous smoke, were now unconscious and suffering from the effects of poisoning. The biker leader, fully aware of this, quickly pulled out an antidote and drank it to protect himself.
"Of all places to charge into, he had to come here. Zubat, stay on alert. If that guy's Weezing or Arbok comes near us, let me know immediately," Sato whispered with a serious expression, hiding under a table, speaking to his Zubat.
As soon as the Weezing began releasing poisonous smoke, Sato had acted quickly. He put on a gas mask, recalled Bellossom, Growlithe, and Nidoran into their PokéBalls, and relied on his Zubat to protect him—its resistance to toxins and ability to navigate through the smoke made it ideal for the situation.
Despite the biker leader's blunder, it had an unintended advantage. With many of the restaurant's ordinary patrons now unconscious and poisoned, they effectively became hostages. This made the League members outside hesitant to act aggressively, fearing they might provoke the leader into harming the civilians.
Realizing this, the biker leader commanded his Weezing to release even more smoke, further thickening the toxic fog on the restaurant's first floor.
Meanwhile, the League members outside took the opportunity to completely surround the restaurant, cutting off all possible escape routes for the biker leader.
A tense standoff ensued. While both sides could afford to wait, the unconscious civilians could not. If the situation dragged on any longer, those inside the restaurant would likely succumb to Weezing's toxic fumes.
Understanding the urgency, the League finally decided to act, sending a few of their members and Pokémon to sneak into the restaurant quietly.
As the League prepared to infiltrate, the biker leader, who had been frantically searching for the back door but couldn't find it, began to panic. Like a cornered animal, he became increasingly desperate. Eventually, an idea struck him: if he couldn't find an exit, he would create one himself.
Picking a direction, he ordered Arbok to violently clear a path by destroying any obstacles in their way.
But as if misfortune wasn't enough, the direction the biker gang leader chose was the wrong one—it led him back toward the entrance he had used to break into the restaurant. On his path stood the last obstacle: the area where Sato was hiding.
Zubat, who had been using Supersonic to monitor the restaurant, immediately detected the leader's movement and alerted Sato to his approach.
"Just my luck, he's heading this way. Zubat, if he comes within five meters of us, attack first with Air Cutter," Sato responded, staying sharp and ready to react after hearing Zubat's warning.
Judging by how the leader had Arbok dissolve every obstacle in his way, it was clear that this man was ruthless and wouldn't hesitate to eliminate anyone standing in his path. If Sato became an obstacle, he'd be taken out without a second thought.
The moment Sato finished speaking, Zubat sensed the biker gang leader's approach and swiftly flapped its wings, now glowing with a greenish energy.
In an instant, a strong gust of wind swept through the restaurant, blowing away the thick smoke, and four sharp blades of air were sent flying toward the now-exposed leader.
Faced with the sudden attack from Zubat, the biker leader's expression darkened, but he remained composed. Arbok and Weezing quickly moved to shield him, blocking all of the incoming Air Cutter blades.
Zubat's attack seemed to act as a signal. The League members, who had quietly infiltrated the restaurant, released their Pokémon and joined the assault on the biker gang leader.
In no time, under the combined attack of the many League Pokémon, Arbok, the biker leader's main defense, was quickly overwhelmed and defeated.
"So, the League rats have infiltrated this place, huh? If you think you can capture me, think again! Weezing, use Explosion and blow them all to pieces!" The biker leader, realizing he was fully surrounded, showed a twisted grin and gave an order that caused Sato and the nearby League members to turn pale.
Without hesitation, Weezing obeyed, and in a flash, its body began to glow brightly as it prepared to self-destruct.
"Damn it, this guy's insane! Zubat, break that cursed window with Shadow Ball, then use Protect!" Sato shouted, his face turning white with fear. He quickly crawled out from under the table and ordered Zubat to shatter the window so they could escape the restaurant.
The other League members, with expressions similar to Sato's, scrambled in a panic, abandoning the poisoned and unconscious civilians as they fled alongside their Pokémon. Each used every method they could to escape the restaurant, wishing they had more than just two legs to run with.
Sato had barely made it a short distance away from the restaurant when—Boom!—a deafening explosion erupted from inside. A powerful shockwave burst out from the now-destroyed restaurant, blasting everyone nearby into the air. Many were knocked unconscious by the force of the blast.
Yet, the ordeal was far from over. The explosion had severely damaged the first floor of the restaurant, including several of the pillars supporting the entire building. In no time, the whole structure began to sway dangerously, as if on the verge of collapse.
