Chapter 405: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [405] [200 PS]
"This was definitely a premeditated attack!" Mr. Stone declared firmly.
Beyond the reasons already considered, there was one more piece of evidence: if Rayquaza had simply acted out of revenge, its Dragon Breath attack couldn't have been so precisely controlled.
To destroy the outer structure of the Devon Corporation headquarters while avoiding serious injury to any individuals inside... That wasn't something easily achieved!
Especially not with Rayquaza's notoriously volatile temperament.
Thus, there had to be someone orchestrating Rayquaza's actions behind the scenes!
But who could control Rayquaza?
The answer was obvious. During the Groudon and Kyogre incident, it was the so-called "Tech Hunter," a Rocket Team executive, who had used Rayquaza to battle Groudon and Kyogre.
Which meant the mastermind behind this attack was... Team Rocket?
At this realization, Mr. Stone's heart clenched, and the initial surge of anger and thoughts of retaliation evaporated instantly.
Retaliate against Team Rocket? That was a joke!
Devon Corporation might be the most influential company in Hoenn, but that was within the boundaries of the established rules. Outside of those rules, Devon's power might not even match that of the now-defunct Team Magma and Team Aqua.
