"I am an intelligence businessman, others call me Old Bill, and I am also responsible for organizing some people in need. Some parties, there is one today, if you are free, you can try to participate." Old Bill made a brief introduction.
An intelligence dealer?
So, that Gastly's behavior is not necessarily its own behavior.
Natsu glanced at the smiling old man, but couldn't see anything.
"What about the specifics?"
Old Bill said with a smile: "Mostly some Trainers exchange some items with each other, including Pokémon, Items, materials or information, etc., equivalent Exchange."
"Then why not go to the black market?" Natsu asked rhetorically.
It seems that these transaction items mentioned by the old man are all available in the black market, right?
"Of course the black market is also possible, but what are the qualities of most of the Pokémon in the black market, you should know about Little Brother who knows the existence of the black market? And there are some things that the black market does not have."
Black market nothing?
Natsu nods, but that's not a reason to fully convince him.
But it also aroused his curiosity about the party.
Seemingly seeing Natsu's hesitation, the old man thought for a while, then added: "The actual controller of the Saffron City black market is Team Rocket, but some people are not suitable to appear in Team Rocket's sight, There's only so much I can say ."
Natsu understood as soon as those words came out.
Saffron City on the surface is Alliance, and secretly is Team Rocket. Yes, but this does not mean that all Trainers in Saffron City are non-Alliance and Team Rocket.
Among them, there are many people like him, who have good luck to become a Trainer and cannot join the Alliance, but are also reluctant to join Team Rocket.
Alliance chains are too heavy, and Team Rocket makes identity too sensitive.
Of course, if you interpret it in depth, can you also think that there are many other organizations in Saffron City?
Don't think that the Kanto Region has only Team Rocket except Alliance, but because Team Rocket is so powerful, other organizations can only hide.
Even, in addition to Kanto Region, some organizations in other Regions do not mean that there are no staff in Saffron City.
For example, Team Magma and Team Aqua in Hoenn Region, Team Galactic in Sinnoh Region, Team Plasma in Unova Region, etc.
Before Natsu had been thinking, it makes no sense that the water in Saffron City is so clean, not Black and white , either Team Rocket or Alliance, never saw anyone in the gray area, Old Bill said this, and some doubts were easily resolved.
"I see," Natsu said.
"In that case, Little Brother, come with me."
With that, Old Bill walked to the corner of the box, opened a secret door, moved towards Natsu and made a move. "Please" gesture.
"By the way, this is a gift."
Old Bill didn't know where to get a mask.
"No need."
Natsu didn't pick it up, and tapped his fingertips on the Poké Ball around his waist. With the opening of the Poké Ball, Ditto turned into a Poké Ball. A mask appeared in his hand and was put on his face with a blank expression.
Seeing this scene, Old Bill was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed again.
"Little Brother is very experienced."
Then led him into the secret door, walked about ten meters, and another door appeared in front of him.
Old Bill knocked on the door skillfully and rhythmically.
About five or six seconds passed.
Squeak——
Accompanied by the sound of the wood rubbing sour teeth, the wooden door slowly opened, revealing a gray head, a mask resembling a human skull, and a dark A red eye like Will-O-Wisp under the hole.
Duskull!
Seeing the head sticking out, Natsu recognizes the Pokémon.
The Ghost Type Pokémon registered in the Hoenn Region has two stages of evolution, and its final evolutionary Dusknoir should not have been discovered yet.
Duskull glanced at Old Bill and Natsu, and after a moment's examination, put Natsu in.
Old Bill didn't go in, just stood outside the door smiling.
As the door closed, the smile faded away.
"It's good to be vigilant enough."
Suddenly, he took a small piece from the mask in his hand.
After entering, Natsu followed Duskull through two rooms again and came to a more secluded inner room.
A dozen people were sitting in the small room, some were sitting on the sofa, some were leaning against the wall, some were sitting directly in front of the coffee table, and everyone was wearing clothes on their faces. A gray mask.
Pulling the black robe he was wearing, Natsu silently stood by the wall at the door, both hands crossed near chest leaning on it.
His arrival slightly interrupted the progress of several people in the room, but seeing that he did not speak, the party continued.
I only heard a burly man sitting on the sofa saying in a low, muffled voice: "Continuing the topic just now, selling a Machoke with a senior level undefended Characteristic Trait, with enough combat experience , Fighting skills are good, money or Pokémon can be exchanged.
For Pokémon, I hope it is Electric Type, ice attribute or Rock Type Pokémon, and the minimum strength must be senior level."
After the brawny man finished speaking, he didn't speak again, as if he was waiting for the answer from the people in the room.
He has a strong physique and sells Fighting Type Pokémon. He should be a Trainer specializing in Fighting Type Pokémon, right? Pokémon who want Electric Type, ice attribute, or Rock Type are also easy to understand, in order to defend against Flying Type Pokémon's restraint on Fighting Type Pokémon, Natsu thought silently in his heart.
But the first shot is a senior-level Pokémon, and it is not a completely tamed Pokémon in the black market. Its strength and self-will are guaranteed. As long as it can be tamed, it can become a good battle strength. This is indeed not a black market. comparable to the Pokémon peddled in .
In terms of money alone, how could it be hundreds of thousands?
But the brawny man spoke for a long time, but no one spoke up. It seemed that no one met the conditions or was unwilling to pay the money.
Just when brawny man was about to give up, a slightly sharp voice sounded, "The Senior Flying Type is not, but I have a Pidgeotto that is about to evolve at the Superior level, the Characteristic Trait is Keen Eye, and it evolves. After I can definitely reach the senior level, I can pay an extra 150,000 as the difference."
Brawny man seems to be a little hesitant about his condition.
But he also knows that his requirements are not low, and Flying Type Pokémon who are senior and have enough combat experience are not common. After a little hesitation, they are still nod.
"I hope you didn't exaggerate."
The sharp-voiced man chuckled, "It was appraised by Mr. 'breed division', you can rest assured."
How many people's eyes fell on a mysterious person rubbing the Poké Ball in his hand sitting on the sofa of the single chair.
The mysterious person known as "breed division" coughed lightly and said indifferently: "Yes."
In this way, a transaction was successfully completed.
Natsu glanced at this mysterious person called "breed master" in surprise. He seemed to have a very high reputation among this group of people, and he was also the main abbot of this gathering?
During this period, several transactions occurred, including Pokémon transactions , Items transactions, and of course information transactions. Some were successful and others were unsuccessful.
Natsu was just a silent spectator, not speaking.
At this time, someone's words caught his attention.
"I need a dragon fire fruit that is not lower than Top Rank, but the Wild Pokémon around Saffron City seems to be a little too restless recently, so I hope someone can help me collect it, I can pay The reward is a Breeder's code handwritten by Master Suzuki, plus 50,000 Alliance coins."
It was a thin man who spoke, and his eyes fell on the "breed master" after speaking. It seems that only a "breed teacher" can satisfy such rewards and conditions.
But the "breed teacher" chuckled, "Dragon Fire Fruit has a great stimulating effect on the activity of Fire Element Pokémon, I originally had some in stock, but now there is no more. ."
"Even if Master Suzuki's Codex goes to the black market, it can be sold for hundreds of thousands, right? Why should a Berry be entrusted here?" Someone couldn't help but say.
"But as far as I know, the entire Saffron City's dragon fire fruit has been swept away in just a few days." The thin man replied.
"Breeder is not easy to do, so many complicated materials and methods, just remembering the average person can't afford it, it's a pity"
Master Suzuki's handwritten note?
Natsu's eyes twinkled because he happened to know a place where dragon fire fruit existed.
After a few minutes, some frigid irony and scorching satire were ringing, but no one answered, Natsu opened the mouth for the first time and said:
"Maybe I can I'll get you one, but you may have to wait a while, no more than a week."
"A week?" The skinny man lifted the head sharply.
The "breed teacher" sitting on the single sofa also glanced at Natsu, who had not spoken since entering.
"You need to pay a deposit."
The man slightly hesitated and then nominated, "I can pay a deposit of 20,000 Alliance coins in advance, under the witness of 'breed master'."
Natsu glanced at the "breed teacher" who did not refuse, as if his existence was the guarantee that such a party could go smoothly.
Nodding: "Deal."
