Chapter 126 The Despicable Reappearance
With a loud bang, the two Team Rocket members inside the base were startled.
They were celebrating the successful completion of the mission when the base suddenly started shaking.
Kosaburo quickly checked the surveillance footage and finally spotted Satoshi and his friends outside the chemical plant.
"Why is it that brat and that little girl again? How did they find this place?"
Since Ash arrived on the island, Yamato and his friends had been keeping an eye on him. They only started celebrating after confirming that Ash couldn't find the base during the day.
On the screen, Ash, led by Mewtwo, entered the base through the large hole it blasted open.
"That's impossible! The base's outer walls can withstand ten Destruction Rays at the same time."
"And it brought a Pokémon we've never seen before."
Yamato and Kosaburo had only ever seen Mewtwo wearing his armor.
"So, Amazon, should we go out and attack?" Kosaburo was very confident this time, thanks to the secret weapon provided by Boss Sakaki.
"Idiot, of course we should wait until he walks through all the traps in the base before we ambush him."
To prepare for a possible invasion by foreign enemies, they spent a great deal of effort setting up layers of traps inside the base.
Each trap is incredibly powerful and is sure to bring Ash a pleasant surprise.
"Yeah, hahaha!"
However, in a different scene, all those laser beams, poison darts, and even falling rocks are child's play for Mewtwo.
A protective shield enveloped everyone, allowing them to move freely within the base as if it were empty. They slowly made their way inward.
Mewtwo would also occasionally raise his hand and release a few energy balls to help rebuild Team Rocket's base.
"How is that possible!"
This greatly surprised Yamato and Kosaburo; this Pokémon was incredibly powerful.
"I spent a fortune to buy the muscle-paralyzing toxin on the poison dart."
The trap specially prepared for Satoshi was completely useless, and several months' wages went down the drain. Now Kosaburo can understand how Kojiro and the others felt back then.
"Don't panic, we still have our last weapon!"
Amazon patted the large machine behind him with a confident smile.
"Yes, as long as it's here, we're not afraid!"
Meanwhile, Ash was watching with concern as the energy balls kept exploding around him.
"After all, this place is a chemical plant. If it accidentally causes an explosion of some dangerous materials, it might affect the Pokémon and residents on the island."
When Mewtwo blew up the outer wall of the chemical plant at the beginning, not only were Yamato and his friends frightened, but Ash was also startled.
"Let's go straight to arrest the culprit."
After being persuaded by Ash, Mewtwo pondered for a while, stopped firing energy balls from time to time, and led them straight to the base's main control room.
With a casual flick of his wrist, he blasted open the door to the control room, and amidst the dust and smoke, Xiaozhi and his friends rushed inside.
"Team Rocket, return the stolen Pokémon right now!"
Suddenly, a loud melody blared, and the flamboyant duo appeared before Ash and his friends.
"Since you've sincerely asked for my advice!"
"Normally, I wouldn't answer that."
"Amadou!"
"Kosaburo!"
"We are Team Rocket, traversing the universe."
"A pink and peach-colored tomorrow awaits us!"
Damn it, Ash was forced to listen to their opening remarks because he was controlled by the rules of the world.
"This feeling of being both similar and dissimilar is the most unpleasant. Musashi and the others' opening remarks were much better."
"Are you kidding me? Our opening remarks were clearly much more elegant!"
Although the lines were copied from Musashi and his group, Yamato was clearly more confident.
The two had been waiting for Ash for quite some time.
"Team Rocket, how exactly do you manage to control the Pokémon in the city?"
"Of course, it's thanks to the super-power enhancement device developed by our Team Rocket! It's easily done with hypnosis!"
"Our Rockets have the best technology in the world!"
The two of them laughed continuously in the room.
Team Rocket really does answer every question, but Ash likes that about them.
[Ding! Congratulations on completing the side quest: Please investigate the culprit behind the Pokémon out-of-control situation in Citrus City]

"We knew you'd come to cause trouble. We're fully prepared. Attack!"
All the Pokémon they had stolen emerged from the shadows, staring at Ash with hostile expressions.
"These are innocent Pokémon that were stolen from League Trainers. How dare you hurt them, you brat!"
!
Before Kosaburo could finish speaking, Ash's fist had already sent the fastest-moving Magnemite flying.
"Are you trying to morally blackmail me?"
Ash is least afraid of moral blackmail, because he always has healing potions to cure them later.
Mewtwo wanted to intervene, but Ash immediately stopped him.
"Don't make a move yet, leave these Pokémon to me."
He was trembling all over, not from anger but from excitement.
Good heavens, how long has it been since he's seen so many Pokémon gathered together? He immediately released all of his Pokémon.
"The long-awaited charity event has begun! Everyone, unleash your skills!"
Mewtwo was quite cooperative; it wouldn't attack unless Ash told it to, and it floated behind Ash with its arms crossed and expressionless face, along with Misty.
In an instant, Ash's Pokémon moves and the moves of the opposing Pokémon flew back and forth, and all sorts of colorful lights filled the entire room.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Your ability has been upgraded from "Useless" LV4 to "Useless" LV5 (The number of Pokémon you can bring in increases by 4, and the power of moves increases by 12% when you send out multiple Pokémon in battle at once)]
Although there were many of these Pokémon, none of them were very strong, and they were all defeated by Ash's Pokémon in no time.
"Phew, I feel so much better now." He'd been cooped up for so long.
"Since you've given me so much pleasure, I'll give you a quick death later, Amado and Koshiro!"
"It's Kosaburo!"
"Don't get too excited. We never intended to use these Pokémon to defeat you."
With a wave of their hands, the two sent a Pokémon with several tubes inserted into its head and connected to a machine slowly floating down from behind them.
This Pokémon has a lewd look in its eyes and a sleazy appearance. It's a familiar face, and it's even a hypnotist.
"This is an ace personally trained by the original Team Rocket's breeding center headquarters; its strength is formidable!"
They pressed a button, and the huge machine lowered a protective shield, protecting the hypnotist and the two of them together.
"With our Rockets' super-powered enhancement machines on top of that, you can't possibly beat us!"
"Oh, shh~"
The sight of Amazon striking a classic villainous smile, coupled with the lewd hypnotist behind him constantly waving his arms, seemed to complement each other perfectly.
"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!" Ash didn't care about Team Rocket's original breeding center; he attacked first.
He immediately ordered the Pokémon to attack, but unexpectedly, this hypnotic Pokémon was quite capable, using its psychic powers to directly change the direction of Pikachu's Thunderbolt attack.
"Dragonite uses Dragon Pulse, Squirtle uses Water Gun, and Majestic Fang uses Hyper Beam."
"Attack together!"
"It's no use, it's no use!"
The hypnotized person's entire body emitted a dazzling red light, and the entire machine was running wildly, with a loud noise.
The terrifying psychic power deflected all of Ash's Pokémon's attacks.
"As expected of Team Rocket, who can create Mewtwo, their technological level is not to be underestimated."
Ash was itching to try the machine's amazing performance and wanted James and the others to "borrow" some of Team Rocket's research results.
Inside the machine, Yamato and Kosaburo were smug, finally getting their revenge after being beaten so badly by Ash.
"You little devils, this time we're going to make you pay for all the suffering you've endured before, tenfold!"
