Chapter 72 Sakaki's Ambition
A group of people entered through the back door and immediately noticed something was wrong with the incubator.
There are no breeding grounds here at all; instead, they are all isolated steel cages.
"Good heavens, this is too much!" Little Joey had never seen anything like this before.
"Saying it had luxurious facilities like a grand hotel was a complete lie!"
After searching tirelessly through a cage, Xiaoxia finally found her Psyduck, which was also locked in one of the small compartments.
And they even stuck a useless note on it.
"Sigh, even bad guys don't like you. But Psyduck's eyes seem to have really gotten sharper."
"Look closely at Xiaoxia, she used tape to stick it on."
Sure enough, a ring of clear tape was stuck around Psyduck's eyes and the back of its head.
This broke Xiaoxia's heart.
"Ah, I'm so sorry, Psyduck, it's all my fault."
However, the iron bars on the cage were very sturdy, and Xiaoxia couldn't find a way to get it out.
Behind the iron fence, there was a piece of transparent glass that blocked the light from the Poké Ball.
Then it was Ash's turn to enter the arena. He grabbed the cages on both sides and pulled hard.
The iron bars inside the cage immediately deformed, creating an opening that allowed the Pokémon to be retrieved using a Poké Ball.
"Little Joey, hurry up and take a picture. Let's find the culprit here."
After being reminded by Xiao Zhi, Xiao Joy realized what was happening and quickly took out her camera to take pictures of the scene as evidence for the future.
Suddenly, the door leading to the backyard warehouse opened, and a blonde woman and a green-haired man walked out.
Ash and his friends immediately hid behind a bunch of cages.
"Kosaburo, have you selected all these Pokémon?"
"Of course, put the rare ones in one group, the highly talented ones in another, and the incompetent ones in yet another."
"Our plan to disguise ourselves as a breeding center to collect and steal rare Pokémon to bring back to Team Rocket was a resounding success!"
"Haha, mission accomplished! The boss will definitely reward us with even more money!"
"A bright future awaits us!"
As they talked, their fingers intertwined, and they began to imagine their future life together.
"Has Little Joey recorded everything?"
"Yes, it's all been recorded."
Upon hearing the affirmative answer, Ash immediately stepped out from the corner.
They clapped and cheered for them.
"Okay, although I don't know where this habit came from."
"But I really admire your Rockets team's habit of talking to yourselves and explaining your plans."
"Pikachu's Thunderbolt!"
"Who's there... Ahhh..."
Startled by Ash's sudden appearance, they were shocked by a 100,000-volt shock before they could even finish speaking.
Yamato and Kosaburo are quite resistant to Electric, and they were able to release their Pokémon even though they weren't stunned by the electric shock.
"Damn it, Rada!"
If it were Musashi or Kojiro, they would have been electrocuted and blown away by now.
"Pikachu uses Quick Attack and then Thunderbolt!"
Before Rattata could even spot the enemy, it was immediately rammed by Pikachu that charged at it like a cannonball, sending it flying and embedding itself in the wall behind it, rendering it unable to fight.
With its powerful hind leg muscles, Pikachu can knock someone unconscious with a single kick; its impact is not something everyone can withstand.
"Are you kidding me?! Is this even Pikachu?!"
Pikachu's follow-up Thunderbolt attack turned Yamato and Kosaburo into charcoal.
They tried to struggle to get up.
"You can still get up? I acknowledge your physical strength. I, Aaron, declare you the strongest!"
Ash immediately went over and delivered a heavy punch to each of them in the stomach, and now they really couldn't stand up anymore.

At this moment, Xiao Qiaoyi and Xiaoxia also came out from behind the cabinet.
"I am Joey, the prosecutor of the League. Your deeds have been exposed. Stop resisting immediately."
"Huh, what prosecutor?"
Xiaoxia also said to them angrily.
"You dare to take advantage of everyone's trust and abuse Pokémon here? We won't let you off easily."
Soon after being contacted by Little Joey, Miss Officer Jenny led the police team to the scene and surrounded the incubation house.
Yamato and Kosaburo were also arrested and imprisoned, and Officer Jenny promised to return the Pokémon to their trainers one by one.
"You little brat and you little girl, I'll remember you!"
"This feeling is awful." ✕2
As the police car pulled Amado and his team away, the two uttered the Rockets' signature catchphrase.
For a moment, Xiao Zhi thought he had misheard.
"It seems these sentences were taught during the Rockets' unified training. I didn't expect Giovanni to have this kind of hobby."
However, this time the Rockets only had two people, and there were no high-tech alarms or even surveillance cameras.
It seems that while the Amazon gang is stronger than Musashi and his group, their strength is only limited. The Rockets really don't have many talented players.
------------
Inside the Rockets' headquarters.
"What?! The incubation program failed? It's only been a month! How could this be? Who did it?!"
This plan cost Giovanni a lot of money; he spent nearly 1000 million yen just on GG.
Not to mention the money he spent bribing officials to get the police system to turn a blind eye.
The Rockets are now focusing most of their resources and manpower on the artificial dream project, which he originally intended to use to recoup some funds.
When Yamato and Kosaburo submitted their plan, they confidently promised to complete the mission, but ultimately they still failed.
If the Rockets hadn't been so short-handed, Giovanni would have killed Yamato and the others in that instant.
"According to information from our insiders, it was done by the new prosecutor of the Joy family and Aaron, the gym leader of the Dark City."
Upon hearing the familiar name, Sakaki asked a question.
"Is that Aaron related to the newly emerged Crimson Group in Evolution Town?"
"Yes, it's the Crimson Group that caused our small team to go missing before. We've received information that Aaron might be one of the leaders or high-ranking executives of the Crimson Group."
The secretary took an investigation report out of her bag and placed it in front of Sakaki.
"The Hua Lan family is even involved."
After picking it up and flipping through a few pages, Sakaki casually tossed it onto the table.
"The second son of the gangster is a greedy idiot. I originally planned to raise him for a while before harvesting him, but I didn't expect this Crimson Group to suddenly appear."
"It seems this new little group is trying to challenge Team Rocket. Get me a call on that Gym Leader Aaron."
Sakaki sat back down in his boss's chair, hiding his entire body in the shadows.
"As for the Joey family, hmph, we'll settle accounts with them another day."
"Let's spend some more money and get Yamato and Kosaburo out of here."
"They are both quite capable, and I want my subordinates to know that I will not abandon any of them."
At this moment, Itagaki's secretary couldn't help but speak up to remind him.
"Boss, our recent practice of using connections to get people out of prison has aroused suspicion from the Alliance Central Committee."
"If you take any further action, your identity may be exposed."
Sakaki paused for a moment, his face grim.
"Regardless of the operation, our top priority now is the ultimate mission. As long as the Dream Project succeeds, Kanto and the capital will soon be mine."
"It's the boss."
