Pokémon: Rise of Evil

Chapter 355 The Night After the War

After taking the list of prisoners handed to him by Zhemei, Shota flipped through a few pages. He didn't know whether it was a coincidence or accident, but he came across the information about Himura and Bannai.

Shota stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and asked Tetsumi:

"Where are these two guys now?"

"Replying to the commander-in-chief, it's in the East Prisoner Camp."

After hearing Tetsumei's answer, Shota closed the list of prisoners and said to the monkey:

"Go and bring me the good man Zifuchi."

"Yes, Commander."

In less than a moment, the kind man Zifuqi was brought here tied up.

There was no trace of humiliation or anger on his face, and his body did not show any sign of struggle.

"After untying him, everyone go down."

"Yes!"

The night gradually deepened, but the lights outside were still on, bonfires filled the sky, and the noise and bustle were heard one after another. The joy of being alive made it difficult for these officers and soldiers to fall asleep. They just wanted to vent their complex emotions at the moment by relaxing through catharsis.

In the army camp, Shota and Zfuki Zento sat opposite each other. They were basically unable to bear it any longer, so Zfuki Zento was the first to ask:

"What are you going to do next? Keep going forward, or turn around and help us."

Seeing the calm and composed face of the kind-hearted Zfuki without any fear, Shota said:

"There is no need to move on. I think this war should have dealt a heavy blow to you, the noble class."

Listening to what Shota said, Zifuki Zento frowned slightly, but he didn't say much. After all, this was the fact.

After a moment of silence, Zifuki Zento seemed to have thought of something and said to Shota:

"Let me tell you a secret. If you continue to move forward, you will run into reinforcements sent to us from the Sinnoh region. Even if you take risky measures, it will be useless.

I am glad that a talent like you did not perish because of making a wrong choice."

Looking at the sincere smile of Mr. Zifuki, Shota frowned instead.

Seeing Shota's frown, Zfuki Zento felt that he had barely managed to turn the game around, and he continued to speak:

"Your power alone is still too small. Even if there is a threat, it will be useless in the face of the general trend.

In this war, we, whom you call the rebels, have been recognized by other regions. Obviously, the outcome of the war is predictable."

Just when Mr. Zifuki was still talking big, Shota's words were like a blow to the head, interrupting him directly:

"So how many years of the Hoenn region's future have you sold out?"

As soon as Shota said this, Zifuki Zento was instantly speechless.

Looking at the speechless Zifuki Zento, Shota raised a mocking smile and continued:

"So, I hate you nobles who are so high and mighty and self-righteous."

After saying this, Shota stood up, put his hands on the table, leaned his head forward, stared at the good man Zifuki with a pair of fierce eyes like a beast and said:

"You are too self-righteous and too arrogant. To be honest, if it weren't for Daigo, I would kill you right here."

Feeling the undisguised murderous intent in Shota's tone, Zifuki Zento couldn't help but shudder and his heartbeat began to accelerate rapidly.

Without paying attention to how ugly Zfuki's face was, after saying this, Shota turned his back and said:

"I will send someone to secretly send you out in the early morning. You better keep your life to yourself."

After saying that, Shota yelled to the outside world:

"Come here, take him back to where he came from."

After the good man Zifuchi was tied up and taken away again, Monkey and Zhemei walked in.

As soon as Tetsumi entered the tent, he hurried over to Shota, handed him a letter and said:

"Commander, your great victory has been reported to Elder Zheshui. This is the urgent encrypted letter he sent over."

After taking the letter from Zhemei, Shota opened it and quickly read through it. There was no special information on it. It was just some high-sounding coronation speeches, and at the end, it asked him to rush back to the First Legion stationed in Zijin City tomorrow morning, saying that there was something important to discuss.

However, judging from so many exclamation marks in the text, it is obvious that this matter may be very urgent. So what could it be?

Thinking about this, Shota threw the letter on the table and said to Monkey and Tetsumi:

"You two can rest now. Oh, by the way, Monkey, I will send you a message later about the handling of the kind man Zifuchi."

After saying this, Shota slowly walked out of the military tent.

Inside the East Prisoner Camp, a fat and a thin figure were talking to each other in a cage.

"Well, Huocun, stop eating. You said it's been so long and the leader hasn't come to look for us. Could he think we're dead? If this continues, we might really die in obscurity."

Himura swallowed the food in his mouth and said:

"Will not."

"Why are you so sure?"

Himura wiped his mouth, stood up, performed a heart-giving ceremony, and said:

"The Führer."

Looking at Hucun's actions and words, Bannai finally realized why Hucun was so sure about "no".

Bannai reacted immediately and turned around, making a gesture of offering his heart, preparing to speak loudly.

However, his mouth was immediately covered by Hucun's chubby hand.

"Uh huh huh..."

Looking at these two lively and energetic people, Shota couldn't help but touch his forehead and said:

"Himura, there's no need to cover him like that. I've already blocked the space around him, so the sound can't get out."

After hearing what Shota said, Himura finally removed his chubby hand from Bannai's mouth.

Without wasting any time, Shota asked Himura directly:

"Himura, how are our members of Team Lightning who were infiltrating the Second Legion doing now?"

"To reply to the leader, basically everyone here is ours, including old members and new members. Of course there are still some losses, but they are very small and can be almost ignored."

After hearing Himura's answer, Shota nodded in satisfaction and said to Himura:

“It’s very well done.”

At this time, Bannai ran to Hucun, pointed at himself and said:

"And me, Führer. I was the one who replaced the shells for their anti-aircraft turret. They were all blanks. Did I also have a great contribution?"
