When Rope and Gold came out of the training ground, they watched as a bunch of people looked at Rope with eyes like he was a monster.
Professor Oak explained Rope's special abilities to the group, which was kind of reassuring. But of course it was the trimmed down truth.
Rope's real secret was obviously something that no one else could know.
It's like he's essentially from another world.
All of this information that could cause everyone to covet was suppressed by Professor Oak. In the eyes of everyone, the Rope back then was a teenager with special abilities who was brought over from nowhere by Celebi.
And the current Rope... the rising star of the researcher world, the future light of the trainer world, one of the spokespersons of the Oak family, the humanoid Legendary Pokémon...
It was always that Rope, who appeared to be a single person, had in fact long since become a leader with a huge involvement behind him. There are a lot of people following him now, and there will be even more in the future.
In fact a lot of people haven't figured out why the Oak family would take an adopted child to be the future of the family's family. Instead of Blue, who has already made a name for himself.
Now it seems that Professor Oak's choice really wasn't wrong at all. Such a leader might be able to take the Oak family to the next level as well.
Professor Elm saw the two of them come out and hurriedly went forward to hold Gold, who still felt a bit weak in the legs, and asked Gold with concern, "Are you alright, Gold."
Then he glared at Rope and said, "Rope, how can this not be greeted in advance, so I can also let Gold be careful."
Rope said with an innocent look on his face, "I told you during lunch, let Gold be careful, I'm going to get serious this time."
Professor Elm was momentarily speechless at his words, and after a long time, he could only look at the sky helplessly.
Who knew you would be so outrageous this time?
Erika and Sabrina, who were present in the room, were also thankful that the League stipulated that challenges to the dojo had to be fought in a standard match, and if they were allowed to have wild fights... they wouldn't have had to fight with Rope, and would have just handed over their badges to him, saving them from having to walk through the gates of the ghosts. You bet Rope had it under control this time and will have it under control next time without hurting anyone?
Just kidding... even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance of an accident, this is not daring to gamble recklessly ah, there is no point in taking unnecessary risks.
Cynthia also walked over, looked at Rope and said, "Do you want to give you a challenge in advance, if you play the wild fight you should already be able to become a champion."
Lance's eyes went straight!
Don't! This was his intended successor! This was his ticket to early retirement! This is his key to avoid work!
Cynthia, you're a young man of no virtue! Use the beauty trick! With sneak attacks! To trick my successor!
Lance is getting antsy. This isn't working! His own fruit is going to be plucked!
"No way."
Rope decisively refused.
Lance immediately felt at ease. Sure enough, his own brother was reliable and knew to sympathize with his hard work.
He breathed a sigh of relief on his side, but didn't notice that Lorelei was looking at him with an odd look.
"I'm going to defeat you in a sparring match, under the proper rules, so that it's only right to take over your class, otherwise you'll be said to be letting go or running away."
Rope looks into Cynthia's eyes and smiles as she speaks seriously.
Lance: ...Wrong, the clown was actually myself...
Cynthia thought about it, and it was true that it was true, and it was also true that Rope had given her too much of a shock just now when she had said that kind of thing.
"Fine, whatever you say." Cynthia gave a smile that was as heartwarming as a gentle spring breeze.
Rope took her hand. There was no avoidance of the crowd at all. Friendly smiles appeared on everyone's faces. Daisy's smile brought a hint of loss. Sabrina, on the other hand, went straight to the dark side of her face, and then left with an instantaneous movement.
You let her Sabrina eat other people's dog food she can bear it, but eat Rope's dog food...if not reckon she can't beat it, she can go up and fight with Cynthia, after defeating Cynthia then ravage Rope ruthlessly to let him know how powerful he is.
Cynthia saw this and the smile on her face stayed the same, but she pinched Rope's hand hard.
Rope ate the pain and managed to control his face muscles, but the smile on his face still froze. With in his own heart thought:
[I can explain... no, I don't need to explain, there's really nothing between Sabrina and me...]
[Emm, my family Rope's charm is big, Sabrina, the famous iceberg beauty it. And Daisy, what a nice person. Lorelei's face seemed a little off just now. Is there a story?]
Cynthia's voice rang in Rope's heart.
This was a byproduct of the pact. The telepathy between the two parties can not only talk, but also lie detection...
[There's no story ah, you were not unaware of me back then, all I thought about was to go home, just ready to stay here was captured by you, heaven and earth conscience, I'm really not a person who dabbles in women's behavior!]
Hmph!
Cynthia rolled her eyes at him.
[I'll deal with you later.]
The encrypted call between the two of them was no longer spoken. After all, there were still so many people in front of them. The trainers basically slipped away quietly after watching the match, and didn't say anything about initiating a challenge.
That's right, it's Bruno who's being talked about here.
And the Doctors left one by one after saying hello to Rope. They had their own research to do, after all. Although everyone had the intention to study Rope himself, due to the nature of this kind of thing, it was really not good to ask, and they could only keep this matter in the bottom of their hearts, and then plot how to draw a tube of blood from Rope.
And before leaving, Professor Carolina pulled Cynthia aside and instructed, "Cynthia, as you can see, Rope is in high demand, seize the opportunity, ah, stay in Kanto for two more days."
"I still have work, Grandma." Cynthia was also helpless, she wasn't worried at all that Rope would leave her. Cynthia knew Rope's temperament better than she knew Cynthia's own after the heart-to-heart.
Seeing her granddaughter's unconcerned attitude, Professor Carolina rushed forward to persuade her.
"Work can be postponed, but not love." "You can let Lucian work a few more days." All these words came out.
Lucian: What? What did I do wrong?
On the other side, Red and Blue walked up to Rope.
"Long time no see, Red, how's it going? Making a choice?"
Chen-Professional Which Pot to Pour Into -Oh, asked that when they met.
Red's mood of meeting old friends was gone in a flash. Rolling his eyes at Rope then said, "You did it! Hurry up and get stronger! So I can beat you up with all my might!"
Blue was helpless as he watched the two who started fighting.
"Hello, Professor Rope."
Suddenly, a female voice sounded in Rope's mind.
Rope froze at first, and then very complicated emotions came into her eyes... excitement, sympathy, happiness, sentimentality...
"I've heard a lot about you, Mewtwo."
Rope said in a rather emotional tone.
"...I heard about you and wanted to come and meet you."
Mewtwo said after a moment of silence.
"I've wanted to meet you for a long time too, Mewtwo."
Rope whispered as he looked at the gradually manifesting Mewtwo beside Red.
