Galar region
Rose Tower
Rose sat in the boss's chair, his legs propped up on the table in front of him, holding a newspaper in his hand, occasionally letting out a sigh.
Beside the table stood a tall, slender woman with fair skin and long, straight, Golden hair that reached her waist. She wore a red, white, and black formal suit with a long white coat over it.
"Oleana, haven't we arrived at our championship yet?"
Just as Rose finished asking her question, the office door was pushed open.
A man wearing a baseball cap and a black cape covered with tiny penises walked in.
The newcomer was none other than Leon, the current champion of the Galar region and also recognized as the "strongest" Pokémon Trainer in the Galar region.
The Leon in front of him looked much more mature than when he first met him, and he had grown a full beard on his chin, as if it was intentional.
"I wonder what brings you here, President?"
Leon got straight to the point, saying that he was originally discussing the price with a trader and wanted to use the money to subsidize the training of new Pokémon at the Trainer School.
"You're too kind, my champion. There is indeed something important I need to discuss with you today. Oleana, quickly pour our champion a cappuccino."
Leon sat down at his desk, took a sip of the coffee Oleana had poured for him, and then looked at Rose, wondering what the other was up to.
"Hurry up and tell me, guild leader, I have an appointment with a male merchant later."
Rose gave Oleana a look, and Oleana took out a project plan and placed it on the table in front of Leon.
"Look at me, my champion!"
Leon picked up the plan on the table and quickly flipped through two pages.
The longer he flipped through the pages, the more serious Leon 'Leon expression became. When he saw the last page, his eyes widened and he stood up from his seat.
Is what's said here true?
Rose was satisfied with Leon's current reaction, which gave him even more confidence for the rest of the conversation.
Why would I need to lie to you?
"Well? My champion, with this energy, our Galar region will never lack energy again, and from now on, no one will be able to look down on our Galar region."
Rose's deep, magnetic voice was full of Captivate.
The initially excited Leon calmed down after hearing Rose's voice.
In the past, he might have simply followed the plan and gone with Rose to explore the special Pokémon hidden deep underground.
But he is no longer the hot-blooded youth he once was; he now shoulders the mission of the entire Galar region.
Compared to developing and transforming that energy, he was actually more afraid that Rose would destroy the Galar region.
There was a time when he believed that as long as he was powerful, there was nothing he couldn't solve. When Mustard learned of his thoughts, he simply smiled and said nothing.
The good times didn't last long. Macro Cosmos Energy Group, a subsidiary of the Rose Corporation responsible for energy extraction, predicted that the energy resources in the Galar region could last for about a thousand years under good conditions.
However, that's only the best theoretical scenario; in reality, it might only last for a few hundred years.
Once the energy resources are completely depleted, the entire Galar region will come to a standstill.
Upon hearing this news, Leon was completely stunned. Reality had dealt him a heavy blow. Even with his immense strength, he couldn't create the energy needed by the Galar region, nor could he resolve the conflicts between families or regions.
Traveling alone is too tiring, and that's when this man appeared before me.
The reason I initially agreed to let Rose become the president of the Galar League was because this man possessed a unique charm.
As the president who controls most of the companies in the Galar region, he is willing to invest half of his personal wealth in the development of the Galar region. Many problems that he cannot solve can be resolved as long as Rose takes action.
He has the strength, Rose has the ability, and their goals are aligned: to make Galar great again.
The two hit it off immediately and decided to collaborate.
After the other party took over as the leader of the Galar League, the economy of the Galar region experienced a year-long period of development.
However, energy depletion is a foregone conclusion, and the current prosperity is merely Rose continuously supplying the Galar region with resources.
Centuries is a long time for him, but he didn't want to leave this matter to future generations to solve, so he kept thinking of solutions.
Today, Rose presented this solution to him.
Leon was not swayed by Rose's previous words. He picked up the plan in front of him again and carefully read through it, not missing a single word.
What exactly is this energy transformation mentioned in the plan?
Is it really as Rose says?
Seemingly noticing Leon's confusion, Oleana took out an energy collector with a transparent energy shield in the middle. Through the transparent energy shield, Leon discovered tiny red energy particles shimmering in mid-air.
Do you remember those incidents in the suburbs of Wyndon earlier this year Pokémon suddenly grew larger and went berserk?
You mean...
Rose handed the newspaper to Leon.
<A colossal beast, hundreds of meters tall, suddenly appears on the outskirts of Gongmen City. What lies hidden beneath our city walls?>
Leon knew that the 100-meter-tall behemoth mentioned in the report was a bit of an exaggeration. There were more than ten Pokémon in total, the tallest of which, Coalossal, was only about 40 meters tall. He personally dealt with it at the time.
But why would the other person show this to me?
Rose stated that, under his influence, the newspaper report did not appear outside the Galar region, and the news has now been completely blocked.
"Oleana has figured it out. It's the energy in this energy shield that makes those wild Pokémon grow to enormous sizes and lose their minds. I call it Galar particles, or you can call it Dynamax Factor."
And now, the source of this energy is located underground where we live.
Leon watched as the red energy particles within the glass shield seemed to be frantically Tackle against it, and he remained hesitant.
"But what if we can't control that thing?"
Leon's tone was full of worry; as the champion, he felt an increasing sense of responsibility on his shoulders.
He finally understood the meaning behind the relieved smile that his teacher, Mustard, had shown after he defeated him.
Mustard has truly shed all the pressure. Now, the other party has only left a note saying that the world is so big and he also wants to see it. Then he went on a round-the-world trip, and even Ma Shide can't contact the other party anymore.
Rose put his legs down from the table, got up from his leather chair, and went to Leon's side. He put his left hand on Leon's cloak and stared at the scenery outside the building.
"Don't worry, my champion, I'll show you something different."
"Oleana, show Mr. Leon your latest invention."
"Yes, Chairman."
Oleana's voice was calm, and her green pupils appeared quite indifferent. She took out a white wristband from her Spatial Bracelet and placed it on the desk in front of Leon.
