Had Blue joined Team Rocket as an executive through legitimate channels?
When Vicious reached the clearing, he saw his two Evil Pokémon tied to a boulder, struggling.
The question was... what the hell was with those humiliatingly professional knots?
Blue, you definitely knew a thing or two...
"You two have some nerve, not running away anymore." Standing in his Gundam's cockpit, Vicious sneered.
"Tsk, tsk~" Young Master Mao sat on a little folding stool, leaning against the rock behind him, yet somehow made it look like an executive chair.
"I really don't understand how someone with your IQ became Team Rocket's highest-ranking executive," Gary said with a laugh.
"Hmph! Cut the crap and hand over Celebi!" Driven over the edge by Gary's mockery, Vicious shouted furiously.
"Isn't Celebi right here?" Gary pointed at Celebi in Yukinari's arms. "Come take it if you've got what it takes."
"You little brat!" Vicious's eyes turned red with rage. "You're asking to die! Even the Champion couldn't save you today! You have my word!"
Boom! An Ice Beam suddenly shot over from the other side of the forest.
Bang! A Focus Energy Bomb followed right behind it.
Crack! Parts scattered as the Gundam mech, supposedly boasting an absolute defense, lost a leg outright!
"Who's there?!" Vicious looked back in horror.
Master Bruno tore off his shirt, revealing his muscular body, and slowly approached with Machamp. "Vicious, you've violated Pokémon League law. Surrender now."
Yukinari took a startled step back. "Okay, but... why did he have to take his shirt off?!"
"Maybe Master Bruno thinks it makes him look more imposing." Gary pursed his lips.
"Did you just say even the Champion couldn't save him?" Lorelei walked straight up beside Gary and beckoned with one hand. "Why don't you give it a try?"
