Chapter 27: Pokemon: I Transmigrated Twice [27]
"Oh, Stephen-kun, are you heading out for a trip?"
As Stephen and Ichiki prepared to leave Cianwood City together, they happened to cross paths with Giovanni, who had just returned.
While asking, Giovanni glanced at Ichiki with interest.
Who's this kid?
"You're... the strongest Gym Leader in Kanto!?"
Ichiki immediately recognized Giovanni. After all, Giovanni was a well-known figure.
"Haha, 'strongest' is just a title others have kindly given me. I don't deserve it."
Giovanni smiled warmly.
"Are you Stephen's friend? Make sure you two get along well."
Although Ichiki was a genius in his own right, he couldn't help but feel nervous in front of such a legendary figure.
"Uh... sort of? We just met."
