Chapter 45: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [45]
Drake considered calling for Kanto League backup.
But he dismissed the idea just as quickly.
The S.S. Anne was far from port by now, and even if the League sent help, there was no guarantee they'd arrive in time.
In any case, unless they sent an Elite or a battalion, reinforcements wouldn't be of much use here.
Not that it mattered—any message for help wouldn't go through. Team Rocket had jammed all signals around the S.S. Anne. Until they completed their operation, no one could send or receive anything.
On the other side of the deck, Luo Yuan and Sabrina exchanged a subtle glance, their silent communication complete.
Luo Yuan asked, "Operation going well?"
Sabrina responded, "As planned."
Reading the intent in her eyes, Luo Yuan smirked slightly beneath his mask.
Now... it was time for the next act. Following the script, he said aloud, "Kanto's Team Rocket? I didn't expect you to get involved here too."
He turned to Sabrina and the Rocket members behind her, feigning unfamiliarity.
