Having met N for less than a day, this melancholic youth had already left a profound impression on Lu Ye.

Gentle, kind-hearted, yearning for companionship, attempting to change the world yet trapped within it.

Ghetsis called N "a monster without a human heart," yet N understood humans and Pokémon better than anyone.

After seeing through the world's truth, he still chose to love. That was truly unique heroism.

"N should be riding the Dragon of Ideals, Zekrom," Lu Ye murmured, looking toward where the green-haired youth had disappeared.

"The black hero... filled with ideals yet fighting alone."

In contrast, Lu Ye wasn't clear about who the real hero of this world was.

Perhaps it was Black, an employee of BW Productions he'd cooperated with before, the male lead from Black &

White Special Episode.

But currently he wasn't trapped inside the Light Stone, instead running the production company with Hilda, chasing dreams in the entertainment industry.

Or perhaps it was Ash, currently traveling through the Unova region.

The white hero who repeatedly fell at League conferences yet kept striving with his partners, never giving up.

Regardless, as long as one upheld the unity of truth and ideals, they could find a shining path forward.

Teacher Lu looked forward to the day he would reunite with N.

"As long as he doesn't take Zekrom to become Kyurem's meal..." Lu Ye thought with mixed feelings.

In Twinleaf City with its strong technological atmosphere and towering skyscrapers, Lu Ye returned to the avant-garde styled room at the Pokémon Center and said:

"Little Rotom, call the Ice Cream Princess."

"Beep... connecting for you, Rotom!"

The call connected quickly, showing Cynthia in a blue sleeveless shirt standing at the harbor, with the blue sea and white ferry in the background, Wingulls soaring around.

"You finally remembered to contact me," Cynthia said with a smile, one hand on her hip, golden hair falling to cover half her face.

The smile contained hidden danger, and Lu Ye could somewhat understand the "henpecked" Ice-type Gym Leader DeFu.

"Ahaha, I was meeting some friends in Unova," Lu Ye scratched his cheek. "Everything's completely fine now!"

"That reason for meeting friends is so unoriginal..." Cynthia sighed lightly.

"Actually, I was planning how to save the Unova region and become the hero who unifies ideals and truth," Lu Ye said without hesitation.

Cynthia recalled the "Unova Twin Dragons legend" she'd read days ago and smiled:

"That excuse barely passes."

"Where are you? I want to see you," Lu Ye said.

Simple daily conversation, yet Cynthia felt a touch of emotion, tucking her golden hair behind her ear. "In Castelia City."

Castelia City was known for its industrialization, with concerning environmental management, yet it had Unova's second largest port and biggest film studio. The Gym Leader was Poison-type expert Roxie.

"Castelia City?" Lu Ye asked curiously.

Cynthia explained: "Because I wanted to see the concert in Castelia City, Caitlin returned to her castle to handle matters. And..."

"The Tundra Bear Ice Cream in Castelia City is the specialty here!" Cynthia's eyes sparkled.

"Was my recreation not perfect enough?" Lu Ye sighed.

"Since we're rarely in Unova, we should try the original flavor," Cynthia said with a light smile. "I'll wait for you in Castelia City."

Lu Ye nodded, reminding: "Remember to decide what flavor you want in advance."

"Hmm..." Cynthia rested her chin on her hand. "I'm already struggling to decide."

"Just buy the ice cream stall," Lu Ye said.

"That would disrespect others' hard work," Cynthia pondered. "And which ice cream stall to buy is also a problem."

Lu Ye chuckled helplessly. "I'll come to Castelia City soon."

Cynthia nodded gently, waving her fingers toward Haunter behind Lu Ye, a delicate smile appearing on her fair face.

"See you later, Haunter~"

"Gengarrr! (￣▽￣)／" Haunter waved boldly.

Lu Ye raised an eyebrow.

Damn, I'm actually feeling a bit jealous!

"See you later, Mengmengda," Lu Ye said seriously.

Cynthia rolled her eyes, then remembered something: "The opening ceremony is next week, held in Lacunosa Town. Don't forget."

"Understood."

Only after ending the call did Lu Ye remember something, his expression gradually turning subtle.

I just met N, surely the flag won't be reclaimed this quickly.

"Darkrai."

Lu Ye asked the other shadow extending from beneath his feet:

"Do you think... this Unova trip has big problems?"

Darkrai slowly floated out of the shadow, hesitating to speak.

Please, don't say anymore.

Your Poké Ball is practically oozing poisonous milk!

But Darkrai also fundamentally believed that Legendary Pokémon fusion was pure nonsense.

Darkrai: "I think the problems aren't big... possibly, I mean possibly."

Lu Ye and Darkrai exchanged glances, reaching consensus, tacitly shaking hands.

This is proof of bond, it's the bond!

Preparing to leave Twinleaf City, Lu Ye instructed 'Handsome Guy' to strengthen security at the Twinleaf Gym.

Lu Ye: "Especially focus on guarding the DNA Splicers."

In the original storyline, the DNA Splicers guarded by Twinleaf Mayor and Dragon-type Gym Leader Drayden were stolen during Twinleaf's freezing.

And Professor Acerola used the DNA Splicers to fuse Kyurem and Zekrom.

As long as the DNA Splicers aren't stolen, Acerola can't create a fusion machine out of thin air.

However, in Sun &

Moon, Acerola indeed used scientific power to invent the Necrozma Solgaleo Fusion Device without external help, allowing Necrozma and Solgaleo to fuse. Truly a scientific genius.

As fellow inventors, Clemont's skill points were all allocated to the demolition field... which could also be considered a career path.

'Handsome Guy' didn't question the source of the information, nodding:

"Understood, I'll send people to strengthen security."

This brown trenchcoat-wearing middle-aged man had solved major cases involving Team Galactic and Team Plasma, his abilities unquestionable.

With undercurrents moving within Interpol, Lu Ye also instructed the trio to remain in Twinleaf City to assist 'Handsome Guy' when necessary.

This brown trenchcoat-wearing middle-aged man had solved major cases involving Team Galactic and Team Plasma, his abilities unquestionable.

"Aren't we technically grunts too..." Jiro whispered.

"Idiot, we're Team Rocket elites destined to become executives!" Musashi clenched her fist.

Suddenly realizing they were speaking in front of their superior, the trio cautiously looked at Teacher Lu.

"If you can achieve it... I have no objections."

Lu Ye shrugged. "Anyway, you're already more outstanding than a certain retired Unova major."

He must be talking about Major Marshal Meow.

Meowth shook its head, handing over the confiscated control device. "This is the device we seized, they used this to control Pokémon Meow."

Lu Ye was slightly stunned.

Text actually appeared before his eyes, indicating it was a system-recognized item.

[Acerola Machine (Damaged): Special device that can forcibly awaken a Pokémon's abilities. (To showcase his talent, it has Acerola's signature at the bottom.)]

The system always makes its presence known in strange places.

Lu Ye examined the signature at the bottom.

Acerola was Team Plasma's scientist, an outright mad scientist. His personal abilities were unquestionable given his success controlling Kyurem.

He single-mindedly pursued science, overly simple yet without bottom lines. After his Kyurem fusion plan failed in Black &

White 2, he gave the Necrozma Solgaleo Fusion Device to the protagonist in Sun &

Moon, becoming an important ally.

Like other Pokémon professors who had their specialties - Professor Rowan with evolution, Professor Elm with egg groups.

Acerola's expertise and pursuit was Legendary Pokémon - talented yet disregarding conventions, similarly possessing contradictory aspects.

However, knowing the law yet breaking it meant prison awaited him.

Acerola's expertise and pursuit was Legendary Pokémon - talented yet disregarding conventions, similarly possessing contradictory aspects.

Meowth shook its head: "We can interfere with some of the signals, but repairing is difficult Meow."

Being able to interfere with Acerola's signals is already pretty impressive!

Meowth shook its head: "We can interfere with some of the signals, but repairing is difficult Meow."

Being able to interfere with Acerola's signals is already pretty impressive!

Team Rocket mastering core technology - truly no deception!

With the trio working with Interpol, there was no need to worry about the DNA Splicers being stolen.

But the cold front capable of freezing entire Twinleaf City was similarly a challenge.

Lu Ye didn't plan to intervene personally.

But the cold front capable of freezing entire Twinleaf City was equally a challenge.

Calling Giovanni whom he hadn't contacted for a long time, Lu Ye inquired:

"Boss Giovanni, how's your 'Storm Plan' implementation going?"

The screen showed the suit-wearing man with crew cut stroking the Persian on his lap, saying deeply:

"I was just wanting to discuss this with you."

After considering his words, Giovanni said: "What do you think... are my chances of gaining Landorus's recognition?"

"I was actually wanting to discuss this with you."

"Landorus?!"

Giovanni said slowly: "According to Unova legends, he can calm storms and thunder, bringing fertility to the land."

"If I can cooperate with Landorus," Giovanni narrowed his eyes. "Even with harsh weather, we won't be affected!"

Lu Ye: "..."

Still setting sights on Landorus?

In the anime, Boss Giovanni almost GG'd because of the "Storm Plan"!

"I understand your concerns."

Giovanni chuckled scornfully: "Strangely enough, when trainers capture Legendaries it's called forming bonds, when villains capture Legendaries it's called exploitation... Are you worried I'll force Landorus?"

Lu Ye inexplicably felt Boss Giovanni made sense, responding:

"I'm worried that capturing Landorus might cause even worse weather in Unova, with the losses outweighing the gains."

Lu Ye inexplicably felt Boss Giovanni made sense, responding:

"I'm worried that capturing Landorus might cause even worse weather in Unova, with more loss than gain."

"This way, even in extreme weather, Rocket Delivery can guarantee mission completion."

Giovanni nodded: "Like Rayquaza, who can quell the conflict between sun and rain. I plan to cooperate with Landorus. When Tornadus and Thundurus appear causing harsh weather, Team Rocket will provide Landorus with information, and he will mediate."

"This is exactly, the Storm Plan!"

Lu Ye: "..."

I feel like since debuting as a content creator, Boss Giovanni's style has been developing toward comedy.

"Boss Giovanni, how do you plan to cooperate with Landorus?" Lu Ye asked curiously.

I feel like since debuting as a content creator, Boss Giovanni's style has been developing toward comedy.

Besides, Boss Giovanni knew Xiao Yin's temperament well and wouldn't act so recklessly.

Giovanni remained silent for a moment: "I've heard Landorus appeared at the Abundant Shrine on Three Isle."

He interlaced his fingers, changing posture, asking:

Giovanni remained silent for a moment: "I've heard Landorus appeared at the Abundant Shrine on Three Isle."

"Battle."

Lu Ye answered: "Through battle, understanding each other's ideals. This is the reason for battle."

Giovanni's wrinkles relaxed, showing a slight smile, his eyes gradually sharpening.

Lu Ye answered: "Through battle, understanding each other's ideals. This is the reason for battle."

Giovanni's wrinkles relaxed, revealing a slight smile, his eyes gradually sharpening.

Lu Ye: "Landorus is clearly Bug-type."

"Ground-type Legendary Pokémon, Landorus?" Giovanni sneered: "I'm quite looking forward to it..."

Thinking about it, Landorus and Boss Giovanni's compatibility indeed seemed to match.

As Giovanni said, approaching it as a trainer, challenging Landorus, requesting cooperation.

Thinking about it, Landorus and Boss Giovanni's compatibility indeed seemed to match.

Giovanni learned one thing from his turbulent life: rather than using technology to control Legendaries, better to personally challenge them and gain recognition.

Maxie and Archie fell to the Red and Blue Orbs' backlash, Cyrus couldn't gain the Spacetime Orbs' recognition, Team Plasma was about to repeat their mistakes...

Giovanni realized that accepting his own failures, pursuing his own strength, far surpassed relying on external objects.

And the "Storm Plan" was precisely his path of solitary training.

Lu Ye changed the subject, describing Twinleaf City's potential risks, the approaching cold front.

"Using this to take over the Unova region."

Giovanni slowly narrowed his eyes: "The next step of the plan should also accelerate..."

Unova region, Three Isle.

According to legend, this island housed the shrine dedicated to the Fertility God Landorus. The small islands on either side of the large island were where Tornadus and Thundurus's shrines were located.

Thundurus and Tornadus brought changeable thunderstorm and hurricane weather to Unova.

Landorus mediated between the two, thus bringing fertile land.

According to legend, this island housed the shrine dedicated to the Fertility God Landorus. The small islands on either side of the large island were where Tornadus and Thundurus's shrines were located.

From the central Abundant Shrine, Giovanni sensed fluctuations in the earth.

Giovanni disembarked from the descending flight device onto the island, the entire island's earth faintly humming, resisting this uninvited guest.

'If Red and Lu Ye were here, what would they do?'

Giovanni closed his eyes in thought, then opened them with sharp intensity, taking a Poké Ball from his suit inner pocket.

The wind howled, Giovanni with one hand in pocket looked toward the Abundant Shrine direction, his suit tails fluttering in the wind.

"I am Giovanni."

Beside Giovanni, Nidoqueen roared, pounding its chest, glaring at the cloud god emerging from the Abundant Shrine.

"Here to seek instruction."

Sand and stones flew, the orange-bodied Landorus floated in the air, crossing its muscular arms, looking down at the suit-wearing man below.

Under its direct gaze, Landorus sensed no fear from the man.

Even, Landorus felt a hint of affinity with the man.

Closing its eyes to sense the suit-wearing man's ideals, Landorus crossed its arms, curling its mouth:

"Good, I accept your challenge."

In fact, Landorus felt a hint of affinity with the man.

Closing its eyes to sense the suit-wearing man's ideals, Landorus crossed its arms, curling its mouth:

By the time Boss Giovanni took off his suit, failed and fought again, gaining Landorus's recognition.

Three Isle rumbled and shook, sharp bug cries and lance clashes ringing out, rows of protruding stone pillars thrust toward the high-overlooking Landorus, large Rock Slides crashing down.
