Chapter 281 - 281: Enhancement of Combat Power
Seven days later.
Cain boarded the plane that would take him out of the Hoenn region.
The trip to Hoenn brought him much more than he had planned.
It wasn't just gains in money and resources but also an increase in the level and strength of his Pokémon.
He spent seven days on the battlefield putting into practice everything his Pokémon had learned in training.
There are only a few days left before returning to Trial Island. Umbra has already sent a message to Cain through the Shadow Unit's communication system, notifying him that they will set sail from Vermilion City's port toward Trial Island at sunset the following day.
If he didn't make it in time, unless he were dead, he would only face the relentless pursuit of Team Rocket.
However, Cain had no intention of avoiding this fate. The final trial, which could be a terrifying challenge for others, was for him a unique opportunity to succeed.
Days before, he had already booked a flight to Saffron City.
He left a message for Steven via his cell phone, informing him that he'd be busy for a while and that he would look for Aron when he returned. Any other matters would be on hold; no matter the cost, Cain would handle everything upon his return.
Additionally, Cain contacted Elder Matsuda, who had taken him as a disciple but later left him to his fate. When he learned Matsuda was busy in his lab and had no time for him, Cain hung up immediately and stored his phone in the new spatial ring he had bought.
