A day later, the Kanto team boarded a specialized jet—shaped like a Wingull—capable of 2,000 km/h. They streaked across the ocean until a gargantuan waterspout, stretching from the sea to the dark, lightning-filled clouds, blocked their path.
"We are entering the restricted zone," a mechanical voice announced. "Transitioning to submersible mode."
The white jet turned black, a red 'X' appearing on its nose as it reshaped itself into a Sharpedo. It dove into the ocean with a violent splash. Through the reinforced glass, Feng Che saw an underwater paradise guarded by thousands of Gyarados, all bearing the World League insignia.
They approached a massive underwater vortex. Suddenly, several giant Bruxish swam near. Their eyes glowed blue, and the sensation of Teleport washed over the cabin.
A moment later, they surfaced inside a hidden cavern: the World League Submarine Station. Hundreds of high-tech submersibles were docked here.
"Welcome," said a girl with twin tails named Dora. "I am your logistics officer. I work 9-to-9; don't call me outside those hours. Follow me, the vehicles are waiting to take you to the Academy."
Feng Che stepped onto the dock, looking at a map of the island. This wasn't just a training camp; it was a fortress isolated from the rest of the world.
