Chapter 289: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [289]
Da Zhi immediately recognized the man outside the plane as the Rocket Executive who had orchestrated the rescue operation on Sevii Island just a few months ago.
His eyes gleamed with excitement.
Having witnessed the executive's strength firsthand, Da Zhi knew that this man was more than capable of defeating Lorelei.
Yet, amidst his joy, a question lingered in his mind:
How was he planning to breach the plane, flying at an altitude of 8,000 meters?
As Da Zhi wrestled with this puzzle, Lorelei, recovering from her momentary shock, also recognized the figure outside the window.
The source of her unease since boarding the plane became crystal clear.
"The Tech Hunter!"
The black armor and the unmistakable Dragapult could belong to none other than the Tech Hunter.
This individual had once allied with Team Rocket to sabotage a League operation, only to disappear shortly after. Now, the Tech Hunter's sudden reappearance—with a plane full of captured Rocket members, no less—immediately set off alarm bells in Lorelei's mind.
Although she didn't know why the Tech Hunter had returned to Kanto, she was certain of his objective: rescuing the captured Rocket operatives.
