Chapter 80: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [80] [DDD!]
December Double Drop!
---
As Luo Yuan made his way to Three Island...
On the battlefield, Sird and Orm, who had been struggling under Lance's relentless assault, finally saw reinforcements arrive.
Matori entered the fray alongside her Roserade and Xatu. Carr, still smarting from his prior defeat by Lorelei and the loss of his Steelix, joined in as well with his Skarmory and a small squad of remaining Forretress.
Together, they managed to ease some of the pressure on Team Rocket.
"Is this all we've got for reinforcements?" Orm asked, glancing around, his words laced with an unspoken question about Luo Yuan's absence.
On Seven Island, it was an unspoken fact that Luo Yuan was their strongest fighter.
"Just wait a little longer; he'll be here soon," Matori replied while directing Roserade to intercept Dragonair and having Xatu distract Lorelei's Slowking.
But Carr, overhearing this, couldn't help feeling irritated.
His main Pokémon, Steelix, was still in critical condition, and he'd taken a risk coming here to help. Yet, Orm's first thought was to question Luo Yuan's absence.
