Chapter 382: Cleanup! Team Rocket!
Facing the place that had brought it nothing but endless torment, Mewtwo didn't hesitate or stall. Its psychic power, solidified into a tangible force, swept across the buildings below like a scythe of pure thought.
In an instant, the entire institute was transformed into a hell on earth. Every Team Rocket grunt and researcher scrambled to escape, but under Mewtwo's furious, unrestrained assault, even the residual shockwaves were more than a human could withstand.
Not to mention the collapsing buildings, where the debris became deadly blades of rock and steel, scything through the crowd.
The research facility, which Team Rocket had valued so highly, was defended by scores of elite trainers and advanced technological armaments. But many of those elite members didn't even have the chance to release their Pokémon before they were extinguished.
Even those who managed to release their partners were helpless; they weren't even in a position to counterattack, struggling merely to preserve their own lives.
As for their high-tech weaponry—the pride of human innovation—it was no more effective against a Mythical Pokémon than wet paper.
"Mewtwo!!! It's Mewtwo!!!! —"
In the ward, Dr. R's eyes flared. He forced his body upright, shoved his assistant aside, and ran out of the room. He scrambled to the window, staring up at the figure in the sky.
His assistant, already consumed by paralyzing fear, was shoved to the floor by Dr. R and couldn't even manage to stand back up.
Mewtwo, currently destroying the facility with reckless abandon, seemed to sense something. It turned its head slightly, casting its gaze toward the medical center.
Its psychic energy instantly locked onto Dr. R.
The familiar aura and the face of the doctor instantly unlocked the fragmented memories within Mewtwo.
Dr. R. It was him. He was the one who had created it. He was the one who had brought all of its suffering into existence.
"Mewtwo!! It's me!! I am the one who created you!! I am your father!!!" Dr. R shouted the moment he saw the Pokémon looking at him.
The doctor nearby stared at Dr. R like he was watching an idiot. The man looked like a raving lunatic—a mental patient having a breakdown.
Did Dr. R not see the murderous intent in the eyes of this Pokémon called Mewtwo? Why was he dancing around and screaming at it?
Father...
Mewtwo searched the meaning of the word in its mind, but found nothing.
However, it did know that it had been created by him.
With a thought, Mewtwo acted. The next moment, Dr. R's body was hoisted into the air by psychic control, flying directly toward Mewtwo.
"Who am I?"
"Where do I come from?"
"What is the meaning of my existence?"
Mewtwo slowly asked the three questions that had plagued its confused mind.
"You are Mewtwo! The most perfect existence in this world!! Everything about you—your memories, your consciousness, your body, your power—were all created by me!!
And the meaning of your existence..."
Dr. R paused. He, too, felt a moment of confusion regarding the final question.
Dr. R was a quintessential mad scientist. For the sake of his research, he had resolutely joined the illegal organization known as Team Rocket. He felt no attachment to Team Rocket; all he cared about was his work.
Supported by Team Rocket, Dr. R had created Mewtwo, the perfect being.
You could say that Mewtwo's existence was the embodiment of Dr. R's ideals. After all, the ultimate goal of his research was to create a perfect being capable of rivaling a First-Class Legendary.
But what about after creating it?
Dr. R had never thought that far.
And in that split second of the doctor's distraction, Mewtwo moved. Psychic power invaded Dr. R's mind, brutally and ruthlessly stripping away every memory he possessed.
Dr. R's eyes bulged. He felt as if his brain were about to explode. His consciousness stalled, and he completely lost the ability to think.
In just a second or two, Mewtwo had forcefully seized every single one of Dr. R's memories.
As for Dr. R, his mind had been shattered by the overwhelming psychic power, leaving him a drooling imbecile.
"Mew..."
After seizing Dr. R's memories, Mewtwo finally understood why it was born and learned of the existence of Mew.
And it... it was just a clone created from the fossilized eyelash of Mew.
Even after learning where it came from, Mewtwo still felt confused about the meaning of its existence.
Looking at the research facility it had just destroyed, Mewtwo felt a surge of emptiness.
"Hmm?"
Mewtwo's psychic energy swept over the ruins below, and suddenly, it froze. Among the debris, many of the incubation tanks had been ruptured by the shockwaves.
Some of the cloned Pokémon that had been sleeping inside had lost their vital signs, but others had been jolted awake.
Looking at these cloned Pokémon, an inexplicable emotion stirred within Mewtwo's heart.
With a thought, the cloned Pokémon in the ruins began to drift upward into the air. Mewtwo's psychic power swept again, and a group of researchers in lab coats were also controlled and lifted into the air.
Once the researchers and clones were all airborne, Mewtwo thought, and in the next moment, its figure vanished on the spot.
Along with it, the countless cloned Pokémon and researchers disappeared as well...
Over the next period of time, Mewtwo appeared one after another. Every time it appeared, the target was clear: to destroy one Team Rocket base after another.
You could say that if it weren't for the help of Mewtwo, it would have taken the World League a long time to completely resolve Team Rocket.
With the help of Mewtwo, the progress of destroying Team Rocket was greatly accelerated...
Of course, these are stories for another time.
On Dragon Island, the medical report for Arbok finally came out.
"The examination shows that Arbok's body has accumulated a large amount of energy, and this energy is currently undergoing a very slow transformation of Arbok's body. And the direction of this transformation is extremely positive, so you don't need to worry."
Hearing the test results, Kenji finally breathed a long sigh of relief. It seemed that the golden scale was doing its work.
Because Arbok had fallen into a coma, Kenji stayed on Dragon Island for a while, quietly waiting for it to wake up.
As for the challenge on the Road to the Championship, it could only be put on hold for now.
On one hand, Arbok was in a coma, and Darkrai was exhausted and hadn't fully recovered.
On the other hand, the Huaxia League was quite busy right now.
Zhurong Yun left Dragon Island soon after, reporting all news about Team Rocket and Mewtwo to the World League.
The World League was subsequently shaken, and a cleanup team consisting of top-tier trainers from the five strongest alliances, including the Huaxia League, was established to begin a global cleanup of Team Rocket.
