Arbok's surprised expression upon being captured was no less than that of the opposing Team Rocket captain, whose Arbok weighed nearly 100kg, but in Roy's hands it was like a vine.

Arbok, realizing it couldn't break free from Roy's grasp, looked at its Pokémon Trainer for help.

Arbok, use Glare!

Unable to break free, Arbok once again opened the patterns on its abdomen, trying to frighten Roy and Paralysis Roy.

Roy wasn't buying it at all. He had lived with Agatha's High-level Elite Four- ranking Arbok for a long time and was already used to the patterns on Arbok's belly.

The patterns on the belly of this Arbok in front of him neither change nor are realistic; they can only scare Slowking, and have no effect on him.

Not to mention any fear effect.

Upon discovering that Roy was not frightened at all by its markings, Arbok opened its massive jaws, its two sharp fangs imbued with Fire type energy, and lunged at Roy's head.

Before he could bite Roy, his body suddenly fell backward, and he saw the scenery around him spinning, a feeling of dizziness rising within him.

It turned out that Roy had grabbed Arbok's tail, lifted it above his head and swung it around. Arbok lost its balance and turned into a giant purple whip that Roy swung around.

The 3-meter-tall Arbok was like a toy in Roy's hands. In the end, Roy used the momentum to throw Arbok into a tree, and the force was so great that it broke the tree.

Arbok also revealed its ring eyes and lost its ability to fight.

This... this means they've lost the ability to fight?

How could such a huge Arbok just disappear like that?

Seeing Roy's immense strength, the other Team Rocket members following behind the squad leader hesitated to send their Pokémon forward.

The strongest among them is the squad leader, and now both of his Pokémon have been instantly defeated by the opponent. Wouldn't going up there be like handing them over to the enemy?

Team Rocket's two main Pokémon have lost their ability to battle, and the situation has instantly reached a stalemate.

The Team Rockets' captain knew he'd met his match; Roy was no match for them.

"You just wait, kid!"

The Team Rockets' captain knew he was no match for Roy, but he was unwilling to be taught a lesson by Roy so easily, so he left after uttering a harsh remark.

Roy was speechless. Did they really think this was an anime?

Can you just leave whenever you want?

He's not the protagonist of an anime; his principle is to nip the problem in the bud, and not only that, he wants to wipe out the entire grassland.

"Interesting. Did I say you could leave?"

The Team Rocket leader, Roy, recalled his Arbok and Crobat, who had lost their ability to battle, and turned to leave.

Seeing their captain's actions, the other Team Rocket soldiers also recalled their Pokémon and followed behind him.

The three Pokémon that were just being Beat Up by the steel Pokémon were instantly recalled by the Beedrill and Pinsir that Beat Up them.

Watching the Team Rocket members leave, the three Pokémon back to look at Steel, unsure whether to give Pursuit.

Steel simply Knob. It wasn't that he wanted to let those Team Rocket guys go; they had just used Pokémon to attack him and Chie, so of course he was eager to Bisharp with a single stroke.

But if his three Pokémon Pursuit Team Rocket, he would be left alone, and he didn't dare gamble on Roy was friend or foe.

Seeing Pokémon returned to Steel and Chie's side.

Just as the group was about to escape, a large Team Rocket, fat man with purple tattoos emerged from the shadows under a tree in front of them, blocking their escape route.

The Ancient Gengar had been waiting here since the beginning, watching Misdreavus and Roy's performance, and he was already getting impatient.

"Ghost~"

The Ancient Gengar stood with its hands on its hips, blocking the path leading out of the jungle and bringing the Team Rocket members to a halt.

The Team Rocket leader glanced at the two Team Rocket soldiers beside him, and the two instantly understood, releasing two more Golems.

The two Golems stared at the Ancient Gengar opposite them; both were merely Gym Leader level Pokémon.

Sensing the powerful aura emanating from the Ancient Gengar, the two Golems instantly transformed into a streak of red light and returned to their Poké Balls.

No matter how the two Team Rocket soldiers swung their Poké Balls, the two Golems did not appear.

Seeing the condition of the two Golems, the Team Rocket soldiers knew that their Pokémon were no match for this Gengar.

But the person behind them is someone who can swing Arbok around with their bare hands and defeat Arbok. So now, they're facing certain death from both sides.

Just as the group looked to their left and right, they saw Misdreavus and Chandelure burning with eerie blue flames, respectively.

Now, all escape routes in these directions have been completely blocked.

Several Team Rocket soldiers looked at the Team Rocket leader who was in charge.

"Why are you all looking at me? Quickly get your Pokémon to block that Gengar, or none of us will be able to leave!"

The other Team Rocket members, disregarding Roy's strength, released several of their Pokémon to attack.

If they defeat this Gengar, they can escape.

Besides the two Golems, Beedrill, Pinsir, and Ariados appeared. Although they were deterred by the powerful aura emanating from the Ancient Gengar, they still gritted their teeth and charged towards Ancient Gengar.

However, the power of the Ancient Gengar was far beyond their ability to contend with. It easily defeated Beedrill and Ariados with just a few Shadow Balls, without any pressure whatsoever.

The remaining Pinsir tried to use its two large horns to trap the Ancient Gengar, but even with its horns spread open to their maximum extent, it still couldn't trap the Ancient Gengar's belly.

The Ancient Gengar gathered Ghost-type energy in its chubby purple hand and unleashed a Shadow Punch at Pinsir, knocking Pinsir unconscious and rendering it unable to battle.

After defeating several Pokémon, the Ancient Gengar looked relaxed, as if it had just done something insignificant.

Seeing that their escape route was cut off, several Team Rockets members turned to look at Roy.

At this moment, Roy stood with his arms crossed, watching the people who had just tried to command their Pokémon to attack him with a mocking expression.

"I never said you could leave."

Roy was walking towards them step by step, with the strange Gengar behind them.

"You... what do you want to do? We're from Team Rocket! If you dare touch us, Officer Carlette will definitely not let you off the hook."

The Team Rockets' captain pulled out his last trump card, hoping to intimidate Roy by mentioning his powerful backer.

Carlette cadre?

Roy thought about the Team Rockets ' executives, but after a long time, he couldn't recall anyone named Carlette.

That means the other party can only be a former member of Team Rocket in the Johto.

"I don't know him."
