Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master.

Chapter 34 Be My Son, Team Rocket!

After several impacts accompanied by Venusaur's scream.

Venusaur stopped struggling and lost its ability to battle.

After defeating Venusaur, Bulbasaur began to emit a dazzling light.

This is the light of evolution!

In the original timeline, Bulbasaur didn't want to evolve because it saw Ash's Charmander's personality change drastically after evolving, which is why it was unwilling to evolve.

You're incredibly wicked, Lao Fen!

But now, Charmander, after evolving into Charmeleon, hasn't disobeyed Ash and remains very obedient.

Therefore, Bulbasaur no longer resists evolution.

Soon, Bulbasaur successfully evolved into Ivysaur, which became larger, and the seed on its back grew into a pink flower bud.

"Great, Bulbasaur!" Ash happily went over and picked up Bulbasaur.

"Speaking of which, Bulbasaur's call is 'seed,' so what is Ivysaur's call...?"

Sure enough, the Bulbasaur in Ash's arms also chirped happily.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"

"..."

Ash, do you know why Venusaur went berserk?

Xiaoxia's question reminded Xiaozhi, who was internally churning with frustration.

"yes."

I almost forgot about that, so Ash quickly activated his Aura Sensing to search for any anomalies nearby.

"This is……"

In the jungle behind Venusaur, there was a strange machine emitting black smoke, and next to the machine was a group of two people and a cat.

"Those three idiots again."

I'm really impressed; they're the first people I should think of when something bad happens.

How many times have they escaped from prison?

"Kojiro, why can't this broken machine be fixed?!"

Musashi grabbed the wrench and yelled, "They've been repairing the machine all morning and haven't even had a meal!"

"It was made from parts found in a junkyard, so it's already good that it can even start."

Sweating profusely, Kojiro continued speaking while his hands never stopped repairing the machine.

"Yeah, meow, hurry up and fix this so we can go eat early!"

Just then, a cheerful voice came from behind.

"What kind of machine is this? Tell me, and I'll treat you to something to eat, how about that?"

Upon hearing that they were being treated, the Rockets trio all turned around with delight.

"Really? This is a Pokémon Controller, they're treating us to something...?"

Upon seeing Ash's malicious face, their smiles instantly froze.

"Of course, you'll get a taste of my big fist!"

Before they even had a chance to escape, three large bumps appeared on Team Rocket's heads in quick succession, and Ash knocked them unconscious.

I bought a few long ropes from the system store and hung the three idiots on the big tree next to the machine.

Xiaoxia and Pikachu curiously banged around the machine, while Xiaozhi marveled at the large block of iron.

"Come out, Squirtle! Use the water gun to wake them up!"

Awakened by the water gun, Team Rocket started yelling and shouting from the tree.

"You brat, give us back down here!"

Looking at the three idiots, Ash couldn't help but sigh.

"You guys are really ingenious to be able to build this machine out of scrap plastic and rusty iron plates!"

His expression changed immediately after praising Ash.

"Release your control over Venusaur right now, or I'll feed you all to Spearow!"

Team Rocket immediately backed down upon hearing Ash's threat.

Kojiro quickly said

"Actually, Venusaur's control had already failed. It went berserk because it hadn't been able to sleep for the past few days. It'll be fine once it wakes up."

"It's all your fault. You caused the monkey monster's habitat to be attacked, and the whole forest was turned into a mess."

Xiaoxia glared at them angrily, then turned to Xiaozhi and said...

"I think we should feed them to the larks."

"Why do you all have to do bad things?" Ash asked, his voice full of regret.

"With your talents, you'll succeed at anything as long as you don't do anything bad."

In the anime, Team Rocket can be very successful as long as they don't try to catch Pikachu.

All three of them are very business-minded.

During the Chengdu Alliance Tournament, they almost built a business empire.

"If I ever establish an organization, you can all become my subordinates."

"What did you say, 'kid'? Who wants to be your subordinate!"

"That's right, Meow, we won't betray our boss!"

"I'd do it for a monthly salary of 10!"

"What did you say, Kojiro?!"

Although Musashi was hanging on the tree, he still swung his body with all his might and kicked Kojiro.

Meow Meow also kicked it.

"Should we give up our ideals for money, meow!"

Kojiro, whose face was bruised and swollen from being kicked, retorted defiantly.

"How much money do we owe now? The boss hates us to death. If we don't think of something, the creditors will tear us apart."

All three fell silent after these words were spoken.

However, Kojiro finally spoke up.

"But it's impossible for us to betray the boss now, kid."

"Team Rocket is the strongest force in the Kanto and Johto regions besides the League government. We can't afford to leave Team Rocket!"

These three guys always have bad intentions but can't bring themselves to do anything bad. They have a whole bunch of evil plans, but they don't actually accomplish much of them.

However, this also means that their sins are not unforgivable.

Unlike some members of Team Rocket who are truly hopeless and have done absolutely nothing wrong. (Yamado and Kosaburo: Akatsuki!)

"If I ever bring Sakaki down, you should follow me and do something useful for society to atone for your sins."

"Sakaki, how did you know our boss is...?"

"Shut up, meow!"

Meow Meow shook its body with all its might and crashed into Kojiro, interrupting him.

Musashi quickly covered it up as well.

"Haha, no, no, we never said our boss was Sakaki."

The fact that Giovanni has kept this bunch of idiots around until now shows that he has an extraordinary mindset.

"But the punishment that should be given still needs to be given! Don't do bad things again."

"Pikachu's Thunderbolt!"

Upon hearing Ash's command, Pikachu immediately unleashed a thick yellow and white lightning bolt.

Shoot down that machine along with the Rocket Team in the tree.

In an instant, a massive explosion sent Team Rocket soaring into the distance.

"This feeling is awful!" ×3

"Are we just going to let them go like that?" Xiaoxia was puzzled by Xiaozhi's behavior.

"Even if they're sent to prison, they'll just escape again. The important thing is that we can't find Miss Officer Jenny around here anytime soon, so we can't exactly carry her with us all the time, can we?"

Ash decided to go back first to heal Venusaur and Mankey.

Kojiro wasn't lying; after Venusaur woke up, its eyes returned to normal, and its temperament returned to its usual peaceful state.

However, the five monkey monsters were still hostile towards it.

"Don't hurt Bulbasaur, it's being controlled by someone else that's why it's like this."

"It was not its intention to destroy your territory."

But Mankey is known for his bad temper and wasn't very happy with Ash's mediation.

Seeing this, Ash had no choice but to unleash his full Conqueror's Haki.

The muscular creature flashed its face in front of the monkey monster, and four of them were so frightened that they immediately said, "We're all good friends, why would we blame Venusaur?"

Monkey monster, obey!

But one monkey monster stubbornly refused to submit, constantly jumping up and down to express its dissatisfaction.

"Great job, this monkey monster has a lot of personality, I love it!"

Mankey used taunt on Ash.

Xiao Zhi ignored it.

The monkey monster flew into a rage and unleashed a frenzied, wild clawing attack.

Ash used the Sea Tiger Burst Punch.

Monkey Monster Out!

Ash threw out a Poké Ball and captured the Mankey, taking it with him.

The other monkey monsters knelt even more utterly upon seeing this.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp! (Ash-sama's arrangements are our highest command!)"

Seeing that they could get along well, Ash felt relieved and left.

After resolving the Mankey incident, Ash's luck finally turned around.

They had only walked for a short while when they found the main road leading to Rainbow City.

"Great! We've finally found the way. I have a feeling, Xia, that we won't get lost and will get straight to Rainbow City."

"It would be strange to get lost on a road like this!"
