Chapter 300: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [300] [200 PS]
Three hours after the battle concluded...
At what was once Lysandre's secret lab—now serving as Team Rocket's temporary Kalos base—a pivotal meeting was underway, one that would shape the region's power dynamics for years to come.
Around a round table sat Luo Yuan, Matori, and Malva.
Standing nearby were Chalmers, now allied with Team Rocket, and the editor-in-chief of Lumiose Publishing House, one of Malva's key subordinates.
In a corner of the room, Mewtwo sat engrossed in a book, entirely uninterested in the proceedings.
Luo Yuan tapped the table, drawing everyone's attention.
"The main battle is over. Our priority now is dealing with Team Flare's remnants. I've been given full authority to handle all matters concerning Kalos."
Matori nodded in agreement, confirming his statement.
For this operation, Giovanni had not only lent Luo Yuan Mewtwo as support but had also granted him significant autonomy. This included deciding how to handle Team Flare and establishing a new Team Rocket division in Kalos.
Matori's role was straightforward: draft a report summarizing the operation and submit it to Giovanni. This level of trust spoke volumes about Luo Yuan's standing within Team Rocket.
Malva, observing this dynamic, found her perspective on Luo Yuan shifting yet again.
