The 75th Chapter

After Qing Wu hurriedly sent Lian Ji off, he finally arrived at the exchange area.

The exchange area was already packed, with everyone wanting to exchange for resources before leaving the trial base.

Qing Wu looked at the surging crowd at the exchange area and felt a pang of annoyance, wondering how long it would take to finish exchanging.

He had to go to the Hoenn Region in a few days, and there were no Team Rocket sub-bases there. Besides, the Hoenn Region was far from Team Rocket's main operations.

Even if he exchanged for resources, it would take at least ten days to half a month to get them to Qing Wu.

Qing Wu touched a silver medal and, with a sudden thought, found a secluded spot and pulled out his laptop.

Qing Wu directly used the indentation on the silver medal to find his Team Rocket number.

The Team Rocket number was the account and password for entering the Team Rocket intranet.

After logging into Team Rocket's system, Qing Wu was able to change his password. After changing it, he entered the TM exchange area.

Qing Wu currently had [points] in Team Rocket points. The points from selling the Fire Stone earlier were used to exchange for Pokémon breeding materials, leaving [points]. With the [points] reward for getting first place in the trial this time, Qing Wu had enough points.

After entering the TM area, Qing Wu first searched for the famous Farmer's Three Fists, but there was indeed no stock.

Then, Qing Wu entered Thunderbolt, Flamethrower, and Ice Beam one by one. The stock for these was also [].

310. However, Qing Wu unexpectedly discovered the Swords Dance TM, which cost a full [points] in Team Rocket points. Qing Wu bought it without a second thought.

Next, Qing Wu also bought the Rest and Life Dew TMs, costing a total of [points] in Team Rocket points.

"TMs are really a lucrative business. After buying just these three TMs, I only have 10,000 points left," Qing Wu grumbled, but his hands were still very quick. Seeing good items, he immediately placed an order to buy them. In the blink of an eye, all [points] were gone.

Items ordered will be available for pickup at the exchange area one day later.

"Fortunately, the purchasing power of these Team Rocket grunts isn't strong, otherwise these good items wouldn't be available to me." Even though the Team Rocket grunts were crowded at the Team Rocket exchange area.

They didn't have many Team Rocket points on them, so the items they could exchange for were limited.

Qing Wu now needed to thoroughly decide which Pokémon he would use for Team Rocket and which for the Pokémon League.

Qing Wu's current Pokémon include Golbat, Kecleon, Squirtle, Torchic (egg), Mudkip (egg), Deino, Magmar, Tricolor Piranha, and Snivy.

These are all Pokémon with green or higher aptitude. (cifh)

Qing Wu had also captured two Arbok, one Primeape, one Magcargo, two Sharpedo, and [Pokémon] that had evolved, contributed by Lan Ling's team.

These Pokémon would be exchanged for Team Rocket points. Primeape had been subdued by Qing Wu long ago but was forgotten in a corner. Qing Wu only found it when he was organizing his backpack and bracelet.

For his overt identity, Qing Wu planned to use Kecleon, Squirtle, Torchic (egg), Mudkip (egg), and Snivy, disguising himself as a novice trainer.

After all, except for Snivy, most of these Pokémon could be seen in the Hoenn Region.

Moreover, Snivy was a Pokémon given to Qing Wu by Cang, on Sakaki's orders. Besides Sakaki, Cang, Qiong, Kaminari, and Ailian, no one else knew that he had Snivy. As one of the League's Starters, Snivy carried quite a bit of prestige.

For his Team Rocket identity, Qing Wu had Golbat, Deino, Magmar, and Tricolor Piranha. For now, these four Pokémon. As for the potential future Larvitar from Mt. Silver, Qing Wu planned to control this rare Pseudo-Legendary under his Team Rocket identity.

After all, Larvitar could only be obtained from Mt. Silver and was under the control of the League.

If Qing Wu suddenly possessed a Larvitar, he would inevitably be investigated by the League, and such an investigation could easily lead to his cover being blown.

Qing Wu also remembered that he had come to the Kanto Region because the breeding house's business was not doing well. He came to Kanto to introduce specialty Pokémon from Kanto to sell in the Hoenn Region.

However, upon arriving in Vermilion City in the Kanto Region, he had encountered untrustworthy people and was abducted to Team Rocket's trial base.

Oh, right. Qing Wu remembered that after his three-month disappearance, the Pokémon Egg laid by his worried Gardevoir and Gallade couple was also stolen.

This ultimately led to Gardevoir crying herself to sleep every day, which became Qing Wu's greatest regret.

Ever since he was reborn and learned that the system had returned with him, Qing Wu had recorded all the regrets and major events from his previous life in the system to prevent himself from forgetting. These were Qing Wu's capital for rising to power.

Qing Wu remembered that the most recent important event occurred in the underground black market of Saffron City.

In Saffron City, someone obtained a Life Orb in its prime. After this news leaked, it attracted assassination attempts from all underground organizations. Ultimately, the Life Orb changed hands several times, and its whereabouts became unknown.

A Life Orb paired with a Nidoking with the Sheer Force ability would result in incredibly powerful physical attack output.

The Nidoran family was already known for its wide range of learnable moves. Although Nidoking's physical attack was only [], with the Life Orb's 2x boost.

The Sheer Force ability could also negate the Life Orb's side effects, making it a very satisfying combination.

As for having a Life Orb without a Nidoking, Qing Wu believed that things would work out when the time came.

After all, Poison-type Pokémon were still the main Pokémon nurtured by Team Rocket.

Qing Wu placed the Mudkip Pokémon Egg in the incubator, slowly injected nutrient solution, and then added the Mystic Water. After that, Qing Wu closed the incubator lid.

It was a shame he couldn't find a Water Stone with top-tier aptitude. Otherwise, the hatched Mudkip might have reached an even higher level. Qing Wu knew this was just wishful thinking.

After all, Pokémon with blue aptitude were extremely rare. It was possible that only one in a million Pokémon might have blue aptitude, and most blue-aptitude Pokémon were found among Pseudo-Legendaries and mythical creatures.

Only legendary Pokémon might have purple aptitude. However, Qing Wu's research had only yielded ideas on how to raise them to blue aptitude.

To achieve true success, he would need the data from Team Rocket's internal database and the League's database. With the vast amount of data as a foundation, Qing Wu could achieve the final calculation and derive the optimal formula.

Qing Wu took out the identity card made by Team Rocket. The identity information inside came from trainers who had died due to various accidents. However, Qing Wu knew that this was a bug intentionally left by the League.

The purpose was to find the moles who had infiltrated the League. After all, joining the League required an aptitude assessment, and it was necessary to ensure that all three generations of one's family were commoners with clean backgrounds to be allowed to serve the League.

So Sakaki didn't need to wonder why the League had so smoothly rooted out all of Team Rocket's hidden agents this time.

Qing Wu knew that Sakaki's entire focus was currently on nurturing Mewtwo.

This was a tragic story. The final outcome was that Leader Sakaki and Mewtwo flew away, and Leader Sakaki embarked on an unconventional path to pursue Mewtwo.
