Chapter 279: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [279]
By the time Luo Yuan arrived at the meeting room, several people were already seated.
Aside from Giovanni and Koga, the Elite Four members Lance, Lorelei, and Bruno had also taken their places.
The Rocket presence in the room was astonishing—43% of the participants, to be exact.
Professor Oak had opted out of the meeting, citing disinterest in the Elite Four selection, leaving only Agatha absent.
Luo Yuan's gaze briefly met Giovanni's before he offered a polite nod, feigning unfamiliarity.
As he took his seat, Lance spoke up, "Agatha won't be joining us due to a last-minute issue. Now that Luo Yuan has arrived, let's begin."
"Oh, so I'm the last one? My apologies..." Luo Yuan said, wearing an apologetic smile.
He played the part of the humble, talented youth flawlessly.
Lance, Lorelei, and Bruno couldn't help but feel a flicker of goodwill toward him.
After all, who would dislike someone so humble despite their undeniable strength?
With just a few words, Luo Yuan had left a favorable impression on the Elite Four members who were meeting him for the first time.
