Pokémon: Join Team Rocket at the Beginning

Chapter 817 Mountain King Roaring Moon

Yang Ming's eyes lit up immediately: "Oh? What information do you have? Tell me about it."

“Actually, before we were captured, a human came to our residence,” Snowstorm King said. “Unlike those despicable humans who attacked us, that guy exuded a powerful aura that was far beyond what those trainers who relied on enslaving Pokémon to fight could match.”

"A human who is far more powerful than Pokémon?!" Yang Ming narrowed his eyes. "Can you describe what that human looks like?"

The Snowstorm King shook his head: "We have lived here for a long time and really don't know how to describe human appearance. However, that human had long golden hair and exuded a noble aura in every gesture, which is almost comparable to yours."

Yang Ming felt much more at ease. He was now certain that the human powerhouse mentioned by the Snowstorm King was none other than Cattleya, who had been separated from him earlier.

"Because that human was too powerful, we didn't dare to get too close. We only knew that he seemed to have difficulty moving around and that there was a pink Pokémon guarding him."

"We don't know what happened after that, because we were attacked by those trash humans and lost our freedom until you, the King of Humanity, saved us."

"Then you'd better take us there quickly," Yang Ming said hastily. "She's our companion, we need to find her as soon as possible."

Snowstorm King nodded, then roared loudly, gathering the other Pokémon together. With this group of wild Pokémon clearing the way, the wild Pokémon along the route all retreated, saving Yang Ming a lot of trouble.

As they approached a cave, the group of wild Pokémon suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Yang Ming asked curiously.

The Snowstorm King looked strange and hesitated for a long time before explaining, "Two great demon kings have recently come to this place, and I really dare not pass through their territory."

"There's actually a powerful demon king you wouldn't dare to mess with? Interesting. Tell me the details." Yang Ming's curiosity was piqued.

The Snowstorm King in front of him already had strength approaching that of a quasi-Heavenly King. Although it still didn't catch Yang Ming's eye, it was already a dominant force in this area. The two "Great Demon Kings" must be extraordinary to make the Snowstorm King turn pale at the mere mention of it.

Snowstorm King said with lingering fear, "These two 'Great Demon Kings' are not native to our area. They are outsiders who have recently appeared here, just like that human powerhouse. They are very powerful and easily defeated the surrounding tribes, becoming the kings of this area. We migrated elsewhere because we were afraid of them. Later, we migrated again because we encountered that human powerhouse, and were eventually taken advantage of by that group of trash humans."

The thought that these Pokémon had migrated twice in such a short period of time left Yang Ming both amused and exasperated.

"Let's not talk about that anymore. Tell me about what those two 'big demons' look like."

After listening to the Snowstorm King's description, Yang Ming and Kebin looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Big brother, these two 'demon kings' seem to be your Pokémon?"

Yang Ming was speechless: Aren't these my Roaring Moon and Red Gyarados? How did they end up here ruling the world?

"These two guys are really something else! Let's go teach them a lesson!"

The cave was bustling with activity. A large group of wild Pokémon knelt on the ground, not daring to look directly at their "kings." The two kings—Yang Ming's Roaring Moon and Red Gyarados—were enjoying the wild fruits offered by the wild Pokémon and boasting about themselves.

Yang Ming and Kebin used their abilities to eavesdrop on their conversation and were immediately left feeling both amused and exasperated.

Roaring Moon boasted, "Back in the day, I followed my father in battles across the country, killing countless enemies. The number of humans and Pokémon I killed was so many that I couldn't even count them all with my math skills. Do you know how great those achievements were?"

"I don't know," the wild Pokémon answered sparsely.

“It’s normal not to know,” the red Gyarados chimed in. “You country bumpkins stay cooped up in these remote mountain villages all day. How would you know how amazing the outside world is? We both reached our current level thanks to training from human trainers. You country bumpkins only know how to work behind closed doors and will never amount to anything!”

"Yes, yes, yes, the two kings are right to reprimand us..."

"No, you don't need to be too discouraged. Your two kings and I are both worldly and highly educated Pokémon. For us Pokémon, being captured by humans is not a humiliation. On the contrary, receiving training from humans, seeing the world, and eating high-quality food is the best way out for us Pokémon."

"Of course, not just any human trainer will do. Based on my observations in the human world, most trainers are trash. These people are either wicked or lack ability. Trainers with good personalities and strong abilities are extremely rare among humans. So, it's actually quite difficult to change your fate by clinging to a human's coattails."

"But you're lucky. If you follow us, you bunch of bumpkins can rule this area and even expand your territory!"

"Long live the King!"

"Long live the King!"

As Roaring Moon was talking animatedly, he noticed Yang Ming standing with his arms crossed, watching their "performance" with great interest.

"Father, Father?! Why are you here?" Roaring Moon immediately lowered its head, and the red Gyarados beside it also immediately lay down on the ground, as obedient as could be.

Yang Ming smiled and said, "I heard that you guys have set up your own stronghold here and become kings of the mountain. You've really made something of yourselves, so I came to take a look."

Hongmingyue immediately shook his head like a rattle drum: "How dare we declare ourselves kings! We just got separated from you before, and came here to become mountain kings so we wouldn't go hungry."

“Yes, yes,” the red Gyarados chimed in.

The wild Pokémon were instantly petrified: Are these still our invincible two great demons who vowed to lead us to conquer the world? How could they be so humble in front of an ordinary human, even acting as a son to a human?

Humans are terrifying.

Kerbin, who could understand the exchange between the two sides, secretly clicked his tongue in amazement: "As expected of my big brother, he can actually address his Pokémon as father and son. Such a high level of affinity, I should learn from him. From now on, I'll recognize my Charizard as my brother."

After Roaring Moon and Red Gyarados explained, Yang Ming finally understood what had happened: ever since they got separated from Yang Ming due to Teleportation, the two Pokémon had been wandering around this area. Because of their immense strength, the surrounding wild Pokémon all submitted to them. The two Pokémon conspired, thinking that since their trainer could be the king of an island in the human world, then being the mountain king among wild Pokémon would be a fitting reward for Yang Ming. So they settled here, waiting for Yang Ming to come find them while indulging in their "mountain king" fantasy.

Yang Ming was speechless after hearing this: So it turns out they all learned it from me?
