Chapter 335: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [335]
Celebi, brimming with curiosity, followed Luo Yuan into Team Rocket's airship.
While it wanted to thank him for resolving the mess caused by its earlier well-meaning actions, its true motivation lay deeper:
Celebi wanted to understand why Team Rocket members from Johto had been chasing it.
Lacking the courage to confront its pursuers directly, Celebi sought answers from Luo Yuan—a fellow Team Rocket member but one it trusted as a good person.
Seated on a couch, Luo Yuan signaled Matori to pour Celebi a glass of juice.
Although Celebi often ate berries, drinking juice was a first for it.
Cautiously taking the glass, Celebi sipped. Its eyes immediately curled into delighted crescents.
Watching this reaction, Luo Yuan couldn't help but think how effortlessly gullible Celebi was.
If only the Masked Marauders had approached it this way, they might have succeeded years ago.
After a few more sips, Celebi finally asked the question it had been holding back.
Luo Yuan, considering it for a moment, decided there was no harm in explaining.
