Chapter 29 Mission (rewrite)

...

Even Natsu was surprised.

Weedle's body had changed so much that he could run so many laps when he was originally thin.

Seeing Weedle standing in front of him gasping for air, his heart was full of shock, followed by deep excitement.

"Excellent, next is recovery practice to master the movement, starting with shooting the most basic targets. Do you still remember the feeling of blurring and hitting the gap in Pinsir's carapace?"

Natsu reminded.

Weedle was panting, not complaining.

This is their usual training pattern.

However, Lance next to him was very impressed with the volume of their practice.

"No wonder this Weedle is so extraordinary, indeed a very extraordinary Trainer, and we can't be left behind, Charizard."

"Roar!!"

Charizard flapped its wings, and the flames on his tail flared wildly, looking very excited.

The atmosphere of the training was infectious, and with Weedle and Natsu's influence, Lance and Charizard also showed more excitement and effort than usual.

Time flies in training.

Training is over.

Lance and Natsu sit on chairs at the Pokémon Center, waiting for Pokémon to recover and heal.

"Lance, you're not from Saffron City are you? Why did you come to Saffron City?" asked Natsu suddenly.

"How do you know I'm not from Saffron City?"

"Not like that."

Hearing this Lance laughed "Okay, I'm really not from Saffron City, I came here to challenge the Saffron City Psychic Type Gym, I heard that the new Gym Leader in Saffron City Gym is Sabrina, who is young but very strong. "

Challenge Sabrina?

Natsu was taken aback.

But Sabrina wasn't a very good person to hang out with. She is not only a strong Psychic Type Trainer, but also a powerful Psychic, which can further stimulate Psychic Type Pokémon with her powerful Psychic.

It is said that Sabrina also has special hobbies, such as turning people into dolls for collectibles.

However, as Lance and the Dragon family behind him, no matter how much Sabrina did, Team Rocket behind her wouldn't let her fight against the Dragon family, right?

"Then you have to do your best, Sabrina's strength is very strong."

"I know."

After meeting at the bookstore by chance, and Training together, the relationship between the two is much closer.

Natsu admires Lance's strength and appreciates the dragon family behind him, while Lance admires Natsu's hard work and focus, is willing to choose Weedle as a Starter Pokemon, and works hard to train Weedle firmly.

During the chat, the Pokémon Center notified the two that their Pokémon had completed their treatment, and they each got their Pokémon back.

No transition is free, Natsu has to pay for it.

This was a bit of a surprise for Lance.

Natsu isn't a registered trainer in the Alliance?

But he didn't ask much. After all, it's one's personal business. Maybe he's the one who doesn't want to register yet?

After all, from a clothing standpoint, Natsu couldn't be a man without money.

I don't know how he would feel if he found out that Natsu didn't buy these expensive clothes himself.

"It's time for me to go back." Pokemon Center entrance.

"Okay, I will stay here today, and I have to stay in Saffron City for a while. If you have anything, you can come to me." Lance said with a smile.

"Okay."

After leaving each other's contact information, Natsu took Weedle away.

Looking at his back, Lance suddenly became a little complicated.

The appearance is rather meaningful.

It's getting late, so the Pokéblocks that Natsu wants to buy can only wait until tomorrow.

Luckily, he had enough Pokéblocks to feed Weedle.

He paid a lot for the taxi and returned to the club.

Rare.

The club, once brightly lit at night, had no lights on today, and there was a "close" sign on its door.

"Is the door closed?"

Natsu pushed, and the glass door was pushed open without a hitch.

Well?

With some hesitation, he entered.

Tuk Tuk-

The collision of leather shoes and the tiled floor made a loud sound, echoing through the empty and deserted club hall.

As he walked past the counter where Anna was supposed to be, he suddenly heard the sound of a chair turning.

"Hah?"

Natsu and Weedle turned quickly, staring warily at the voice.

In the dim line of sight, he vaguely saw a figure sitting on a chair, and a dark line of sight fell on him.

"Director?"

Seeing the unclear line, Natsu asked hesitantly.

"It's me."

The voice came.

The figure slowly stood up and walked out of the darkness, through the dim moonlight, he could faintly see his appearance.

That's the club director, Rotto.

Allegedly a member of Team Rocket, but also one of the club's current executives.

"During the day, did you see it?"

Suddenly, the director asked.

Hearing this, Natsu's heart tightened, and the red "R" embroidered on the director's cuff flashed through his mind.

But on the surface, he still asked calmly:

"What do you see?"

Not that he would put the whole club down just for him. Are they all closed?

Although Team Rocket is very secretive in Saffron City, as long as you are a little strong, you will not fail to see the complicated relationship between Team Rocket in Saffron City, and you can see Team Rocket faintly in every corner of the shadow.

Knowing that he was a member of Team Rocket, wouldn't that be a big deal?

"Huh—" Hearing Natsu pretend to be confused, Rotto didn't reveal it, only chuckled and said, "Are you lack on money?"

Lack of money?

This is more than just a lack of money.

Nodding incoherently, "Lack."

There's no need to hide it, and there's no need to hide it. The purpose of his coming to this club is to make money. More than 90 sparring partners also for money.

"I think so too."

Rotto came in, his cold appearance showing a hint of coldness.

After staring at Natsu for a few seconds, especially Weedle on his shoulder, he sat back in his chair, returning to the shadows again.

"After the club's sparring team is promoted to the middle ranks, they can receive special assignments from me, and each task is very beneficial."

Natsu was stunned.

Mid-rank sparring can get a special task from Rotto?

Is this a Team Rocket mission, or a club mission?

Or.

Does that mean that this shallow club is actually screening members for Team Rocket to some extent?

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, he said solemnly: "It is beneficial? It depends on how much money it is."

He saw Rotto hand over a document, "Here's a mission, the reward is 30,000 Alliance coins, would you like to accept it?"

30,000!

Natsu's heart skipped a beat.

Even if he is now a middle-ranking sparring partner, the base and sparring salary is not low, but the gap of 50,000 Alliance coins is still not small, it will take at least half a month to get this amount. Thirty thousand Alliance Coins.

Also if all goes well.

Even if Weedle had harnessed more potential now, it was still a question whether it was one month away from evolution.

If he can get more Alliance coins this month, use more resources to turn Weedle's potential into strength, and strive to maximize the potential that will be realized before developing, this will be beneficial to him in the future. Growth has countless benefits.

Taking over the document, he glanced briefly, his eyes a little sluggish.

"I took it."

"Why? Don't ask about the dangers?" Rotto joked.

Natsu kept the document, "It's not dangerous, it's all about money."

"Heh—I like your attitude." Rotto smiled and clapped her hands.

"If I have nothing to do, I'll go back first," said Natsu.

"Continue." Rotto waved his hand casually.

"By the way, Director Rotto, why is it closed so early today?" Natsu could only ask.

"Power outage."

Natsu: "???"

Power outages are scary.

But, how could there be a blackout in a city as big as Saffron City?
