Chapter 715 "New Dynasty's Elegant Politics"
"Really? Guzma and the others are back?"
In the Ether Foundation's headquarters, Ether Paradise, Chairman Lusamine was listening to a report from her subordinates.
"Yes, I have conveyed the Chairman's instructions to him. I believe he will soon join us with the remaining members of the Skull Team."
Bi Ke, the third person in the Ether Foundation, said carefully that ever since the chairman returned from Yuelun Lake, her temper has become more and more weird.
"Chairman, there's something I'm not sure if I should tell you or not."
"Go ahead."
"Since Zaobo came back, you have suspended him from his duties. Is this punishment a bit..." Bi Ke hesitated.
"Hardly? I don't think so," Lusamine said coldly. "This guy acted recklessly at Moon Lake and nearly ruined our plan. If it weren't for his previous achievements, I would have fired him long ago."
Bi Ke lowered her head and dared not speak anymore.
Just then, one of his men walked into the room.
"Chairman, the 'guests' from another world have arrived."
"Let them in."
After a while, four strangely dressed people walked into the room. They were wearing high-tech protective suits and their faces were covered by masks. The leader took a few steps forward and was about to shake hands with Lusamine.
"Welcome, visitor from another world. I am the chairman of the Aether Foundation. You can call me Lusamine."
"Beautiful lady, I have to correct you on one thing. The world we live in has an official name, called 'Ultimate Metropolis'. It is not some other world. I am Sionila, the captain of the Ultimate Investigation Team belonging to Ultimate Metropolis. I have come here on the orders of the Commander-in-Chief to discuss cooperation with you." The leading man took off his mask, revealing a pale face.
"Beautiful lady? You really know how to compliment people." Lusamine chuckled. She was quite pleased that someone had gotten her age wrong.
"The Commander-in-Chief has agreed to your request. In the future, we will share our 'Space Jump Cycling' technology with you, allowing you to freely enter the Ultimate Space."
"As a condition, your Aether Foundation needs to move to the Ultimate Metropolis and work with us to develop a method to appease the 'Glorious God'."
"Of course, we won't let you suffer any loss during this time. Aside from the Radiant God, we will assist you in capturing any other Ultra Beasts you desire."
"And during this process, we will not restrict your personal freedom, nor will we send people to monitor your actions. After the cooperation is over, we will not interfere with your stay or departure."
As if feeling that his request was a bit harsh, Sionela mentioned a few more benefits, saying that his side had no intention of placing the people of the Ether Foundation under house arrest. Everything was just to keep the existence of the "Glorious God" secret, so he asked the Ether Foundation to move to the Ultimate Metropolis.
"No problem, we agree to this condition. Once the last of my men return, we will leave the Alola region together. Now, please go to the side room and rest."
After Sionela and the other three left, Lusamine suddenly put away the smile on her face.
"Chairman, the other party's conditions are too extreme. We don't need to cooperate with them..." Bi Ke was a little worried.
"I know, but the 'Space Riding Jump Technology' and the Ultra Beasts are things we must obtain, and we must get them no matter what." Lusamine paced back and forth in the office, and her high heels made a series of loud clattering sounds against the floor.
"That's why I called Guzma here, so that we can have enough leverage when we confront Ultra Metropolis in the future."
"Bi Ke, please go and release Zaobo. We need manpower right now, and every bit of strength is worth fighting for."
Pico took the order and left. Lusamine looked at the Ether Paradise that she had built herself, and her heart could not calm down for a long time.
"Moen, once I find you, our family should be able to return to our previous life..."
Just as Lusamine and Guzma were preparing to leave Alola, Yang Ming also began to build his regime.
After meeting with Tokugawa and others, Yang Ming immediately issued an order requiring the towns and villages under his rule to remeasure the land. All lands seized by warlords and bandits were returned to the original owners, and those ownerless lands were claimed by the poor people who had lost their homes due to the robbery.
In order to encourage the enthusiasm of his people, Yang Ming also abolished all the harsh taxes and levies previously imposed by the warlords and bandits, and stated that since Ula Ula Island had long been plagued by warlords and bandits, the areas under his rule would be exempt from taxes for one year to restore the local economy.
As for those impoverished people, Yang Ming not only provided land, but also provided them with labor tools for free to ensure that these people could quickly adapt to his rule.
In addition, Yang Ming also issued a notice to welcome the police, doctors, and technicians who left Ula'ula Island due to the war to come back and build their hometown.
Through a series of measures, order in these areas was quickly restored, and the technicians who had fled Ula'ula Island due to the war also returned one after another, including Joey and Miss Junsha who were originally stationed on Ula'ula Island.
With the help of Miss Joy and Miss Junsha, Pokémon Centers, Friendly Stores, and police stations were rebuilt in various places, and Yang Ming could begin his next move.
Because those warlords liked to rob civilians of Pokémon to use as their "army", Yang Ming's warehouse is now filled with a large number of Poké Balls. These are Pokémon that were robbed by warlords and bandits and are now ownerless.
Yang Ming then had the police station post a notice, asking the Pokémon owners to come back and claim their Pokémon. Soon, a long line formed at the police station. Trainers who had been oppressed by the warlords and dared not speak out were overjoyed when they saw their lost Pokémon.
However, even so, there are still many Pokémon that remain unclaimed. After checking with Miss Junsha from the police station, it was discovered that many Pokémon owners had already passed away, and some Pokémon trainers were too poor to claim their Pokémon.
Regarding the latter group of trainers, Yang Ming expressed his "New Dynasty's Elegant Government" and said that he would provide their Pokémon for free for one year. After one year, when they can support themselves, it will not be too late to come and claim their own Pokémon.
So these trainers also came to register and said that they would come back immediately to get their Pokémon back after they got out of poverty.
The only ones left are those Pokémon whose trainers have passed away.
