"R-Really thank you so much!" The middle-aged woman wearing a sun hat exhaled a long breath, gratitude appearing on her face slightly weathered by time. "My name is Aroma, a flower farmer in Floaroma Town."
Hearing this, Hakuya and Irida looked at each other and replied with smiles in unison.
"Just a small effort. My name is Hakuya, a nearby farm owner."
"I am Irida. Very glad to be able to help you, Mrs. Aroma."
After a brief self-introduction, Mrs. Aroma looked at the unconscious Team Galactic members on the ground, anger and shock from the robbery still lingering on her face.
"These guys demanded I hand over the Honey as soon as they came up. Not paying is one thing, but directly robbing... claiming to belong to some Team Galactic, dressed weirdly too. If you hadn't helped in time, these guys would have really succeeded today..."
Hearing the middle-aged woman's words, Hakuya nodded secretly, thoughtful.
Like the game or anime plot, the current Team Galactic was still an evil organization hidden underground, not truly understood by people.
And if Hakuya hadn't chosen to intervene, these two small fry claiming to be Team Galactic members would at most defeat Mrs. Aroma's Pokémon and then rob directly; they wouldn't dare to do things like killing people to silence them.
In this point, the several major evil organizations in the Pokémon world were obviously different from scattered Pokémon Hunters.
First, there was corresponding discipline within the organization. Second, these organizations often had big goals. Whether it was Team Magma and Team Aqua in the Hoenn region, Team Flare in the Kalos region, or the local Team Galactic in the Sinnoh region, they were basically all aiming to destroy the world.
Before the ultimate goal was achieved, doing too many things that violated League laws would easily attract attention and lead to joint suppression.
To some extent, Hakuya and Irida choosing to attack both the Trainer and Pokémon just now seemed more like villains.
Only...
Hakuya looked at the two people lying on the ground, completely unconscious, again.
Two Team Galactic members in the Floaroma Meadow, Honey... This basically matches the game plot from my previous life. Following the development order, I'll probably encounter that gang from Team Galactic again when I go to the Valley Windworks later.
On the other side, Irida looked curiously at the honey pot in the middle-aged woman's hand.
"Mrs. Aroma, is this Honey very rare?"
"Not really rare." Mrs. Aroma shook her head and began to explain. "If this Honey is smeared on tree trunks, it can attract many Bug-type Pokémon. It's a specialty of our Floaroma Town~"
Glancing at the enlightened blonde girl before her, she seemed to sense something and laughed softly. "It seems this is your first time in Floaroma Town, right?"
"Yes, we just arrived. It is indeed a beautiful city, just like the rumors."
"Mmm-hmm~ It's my first time seeing such a blossoming scene too!"
Irida held the farm owner's arm beside her, her clear beautiful eyes full of admiration.
"Speaking of which, it wasn't originally like this here."
Hearing Hakuya and Irida's praise, a smile first appeared on Mrs. Aroma's face, then she shook her head lightly, casting her gaze into the brilliant and fragrant flower garden before her.
"A long time ago, this town was actually just a barren land... Ancestors who migrated here tried planting flowers to restore vitality, but no vegetation grew."
"Until later, a lady stood on the hill, expressing gratitude to nature with a heart full of sincerity. Floaroma Town instantly bloomed with flowers and lush trees, becoming the fertile and verdant place it is today from a barren land."
"Sounds like a beautiful legend~"
Unlike Irida beside him full of girlish heart, Hakuya, possessing much Pokémon knowledge from his previous life, pondered subconsciously.
Counting those capable of possessing this power, there were no more than ten. After a little elimination, he guessed the truth.
"I think it was a blessing sent down by that Legendary Pokémon—Shaymin, right?"
"Mr. Hakuya is truly knowledgeable~" The middle-aged woman wearing a sun hat covered her mouth and sighed, then suddenly thought of something, taking a packet of seeds from the bag she carried.
"You guessed right. At the end of the story, the Pokémon hailed as the Gratitude Pokémon brought this Gracidea flower to Floaroma Town as a thank-you gift. Please accept this!"
"Planting it on the farm can beautify the environment, and after blooming, you can collect nectar to make special Honey..."
"And if your heart is sincere, maybe you can even see that Legendary Pokémon—Shaymin. Legend has it that it seems to visit people who plant this flower... Ah, the police officers are here..."
Handing the flower seed bag to the farm owner, Mrs. Aroma waved with a smile, then handcuffed the unconscious Team Galactic members with the arriving police officers and walked towards the town together.
"Mr. Hakuya, if you have ample time, you can also take your little girlfriend around. Floaroma Town is very beautiful, definitely a good place for a date~"
[Gracidea (Rainbow): Hailed as the flower of gratitude. The floral scent emitted can make a certain special Pokémon change form.]
Watching the middle-aged woman leave, Hakuya looked at the heavy bag of flower seeds in his hand.
Different from the Eternal Flower obtained from Mrs. Asatsuyu before, this Gracidea was light pink in appearance, full of rich vitality.
After planting, it could not only add floral fragrance to the farm but also collect nectar to make Honey or extract ingredients to make perfume after blooming.
It might even really attract a Shaymin as Mrs. Aroma said—not just a Legendary Pokémon with the ability to make flower fields grow vigorously, but Shaymin had dual forms under the blessing of the Gracidea. The switch between hedgehog girl and little reindeer girl was also very tempting.
Hakuya nodded with satisfaction. Looking up, he saw the blonde girl beside him clutching the hem of his clothes, her pretty face flushed red.
"Let's visit here after going to the power plant; treat it as a date."
Obviously guessing what Irida was thinking, Hakuya gently rubbed her beautiful hair and proposed.
"G-Great!"
Irida froze for a moment, then cheered happily.
Akari, I'm far ahead—
For a moment, this blonde girl inexplicably thought of her companion still in the wooden cabin, and the corners of her mouth rose higher.
She had completely forgotten the bestie-like friendship in the Hisui region earlier, filled only with the urgency to monopolize Lord God-Blessed One quickly.
Inside the Valley Windworks.
"Mars, how is the situation progressing?"
Walking slowly in the factory corridor illuminated by incandescent lights, the mature sister with fiery red short hair and a tight Team Galactic uniform frowned slightly, bringing the beeping communicator to her face.
In twos and threes, female members all wearing silver-black uniforms retreated to the walls or lowered their heads, subconsciously making way for this red-haired beauty with a face as lovely as a young girl but a hot figure with curves in all the right places.
This was one of the newly promoted four Commanders of Team Galactic, the female Trainer named Mars.
"Progress is very smooth. We have successfully invaded this Valley Windworks. I just let subordinates into the core power area to start collecting electricity. There shouldn't be anything else to do, right?"
This red-haired beauty looked around, first yawning indifferently, then reporting the current situation to another Commander responsible for contact—Saturn.
"Indeed, there is nothing else." On the other side, seemingly guessing his companion's slackness, Saturn rubbed his temples with a headache.
"I have to restate. Although you just got promoted to a Commander in the team and might not truly understand Boss Cyrus's plan yet, it's best not to have any mistakes in this power plant operation."
"Understood."
"By the way... I'm transmitting a Trainer's information to you now."
Although still somewhat dissatisfied with Mars's concise reply, thinking they would work in the same team in the future, the blue-haired young man Saturn finally chose to turn the page directly and switch to another topic.
"Hakuya, a powerful Trainer currently in the limelight. His current danger level assessment in Team Galactic is extremely high. The detailed information is as follows... Boss Cyrus has instructed that in future operations, unless necessary, try to avoid direct confrontation with him."
"Got it; I'll look at it later."
The red-haired beauty paused for only a second, then hung up the communicator decisively.
Compared to Saturn, who was only keen on completing the so-called plan to build a new world, although she was also one of the four Commanders, she currently didn't have such a strong sense of belonging to Team Galactic. It was more like her strength was valued by Boss Cyrus, and she was sent out to complete necessary tasks.
Like the Arceus Plate search a while ago, and this Valley Windworks electricity theft operation.
"Hakuya? Truly a handsome man~"
Receiving the message transmitted by Saturn, Mars selectively ignored the sentence "[High danger person, avoid any conflict unless necessary]" and her eyes lit up at the photo.
Trainer of the Legendary Pokémon Articuno, defeating the most famous Hunter J poaching gang in Sinnoh head-on, and sweeping through the rioting wild Pokémon in Hiyori Forest alone—this black-haired youth named Hakuya seemed to have set off a storm in the Sinnoh region recently.
In Team Galactic, due to the confidentiality and danger of operations, they weren't reckless fools acting arbitrarily just to achieve goals. Instead, they would assess some Trainers in the Sinnoh region in advance, trying to avoid confrontation with powerful opponents leading to plan failure.
For example, the Sinnoh Elite Four and the Sinnoh Champion Cynthia—these Trainers were rated extremely high in risk assessment. Only now there was a new candidate, and judging from strength, he was not inferior to the former five at all.
"Mmm..."
Mars licked her cherry lips subconsciously. Her originally fair face was stained with thin red beauty at some point, having both the cuteness of a maiden's fluttering heart and the enchanting charm of a mature sister.
Mars's gaze locked tightly on the photo. The black-haired youth's deep, indifferent eyes seemed to penetrate the screen, piercing straight into her heart. An indescribable heat climbed rapidly up her spine, making this usually arrogant and domineering Team Galactic Commander's legs go weak, almost losing her footing.
"This kind of gaze... I really want to... be ruthlessly stepped on under his feet..."
An extremely shameful scene involuntarily surfaced in her mind: On the cold floor of this power plant, she was roughly pressed underneath by this man named Hakuya. Her tight Team Galactic uniform was mercilessly torn to shreds by him. His powerful large hand grabbed her neck, forcing her to stick out her buttocks like a female dog, welcoming his giant thing capable of penetrating her soul.
"Ah-hah... just thinking about it... makes me wet..."
Mars couldn't help clamping her legs tight. That special tight pair of pants dug deeply into the soft flesh of her crotch due to this action. The rough fabric rubbed against the already engorged and swollen flower lips, bringing bursts of numbing pleasure like electric currents. She leaned unbearably against the cold wall, one hand quietly slipping into the hem of her clothes, kneading those snow breasts swollen from excitement hard through her bra, fingertips twisting that erect nipple forcefully, trying to alleviate the emptiness and desire in her heart.
"If I can be conquered by such a strong man... even betraying Team Galactic... isn't impossible, right..."
With a suppressed and sweet charming pant, a large amount of love fluid oozed uncontrollably, soaking through the thin panties. Mars's eyes were misty, the corners of her mouth hooking into a sickly and bewitching smile. She even began to look forward to the meeting with this "highly dangerous person," looking forward to being completely defeated, ravaged, and possessed by him in that inevitable conflict.
Although she wasn't appearance-obsessed, she had to admit that this Trainer named Hakuya was definitely the most handsome man she had ever seen.
But for some reason, Mars had such a thought in her heart for the first time—wanting to capture this black-haired youth and have a fierce battle full of love with herself.
Phew~ Why think so much? Probably won't even meet him!
Calming down slightly, Mars patted her rosy cheeks and took a deep breath.
Such powerful Trainers were usually elusive like Legendary Pokémon. How could she meet him just by coming to the power plant in Floaroma Town?
Boom— "Commander Mars!"
Just as the beautiful red-haired mature sister prepared to walk towards the inner core area, she heard a sudden noise from outside.
This seemed to be the shouts from the personnel she arranged to guard outside the power plant in advance, as well as the sound of Pokémon battles.
"What's going on?"
"Commander Mars, t-two strange Trainers broke in!"
A female member, also wearing a silver-black uniform, ran in, her face full of panic.
But just as she finished speaking, the gate not far away, specially locked for obstruction, was blasted open with a boom.
"?!"
In an instant, Mars, who just cast her gaze over, shrank her pupils slightly.
