Chapter 421: Team Rocket’s Second-in-Command! [421]
When Giovanni agreed to her plan, Lorelei felt a surge of excitement.
On a small scale, this was a concession from Giovanni. But on a larger scale, it was a victory—her victory in their ongoing competition!
In Lorelei's eyes, she had seized the initiative. As long as the plan proceeded smoothly, she would defeat Giovanni and claim the championship for herself.
She had no idea she had already stepped into Luo Yuan's carefully laid trap.
While the League was finalizing its plan, Team Galactic had completed its assembly on Five Island.
They were currently making their way toward the Rocket base—its location provided by the spies they had planted in Kanto earlier.
Although they knew their target this time was Team Rocket, Mars and Jupiter didn't feel particularly anxious.
After all, while Rocket had demonstrated formidable strength in the Hoenn incident—including the ability to control Legendary Pokémon—Team Galactic believed they had the element of surprise. Rocket had no idea they were about to launch a sudden raid on the Sevii Islands.
And if Rocket hadn't stationed any Legendaries here, then they were confident they could take down any Rocket executive.
Before long, they arrived at the disguised entrance of the Rocket base.
After cross-referencing their map and confirming they were at the right location, the two exchanged a glance. Finally, Jupiter stepped forward and sent out her Skuntank.
