Chapter 1752 - 1746: A Year of Rage!

Chapter 1752: Chapter 1746: A Year of Rage!

He had already been wrong once with Giovanni and Kael. He did not want to be wrong again with Cain.

If Cain truly did not act according to their pact, then it could only be considered that he, truly, did not have the ability to judge people. If the Pokémon League declined in his hands, he would also accept it.

Even to help Cain better execute the bet between the two of them, the Elder also took Giovanni away, allowing Cain to take charge of Team Rocket and Team Rainbow Rocket without pressure.

That was the trust the Elder had in Cain. That was the path the Elder had prepared for Cain.

In reality, during this year, Cain had also had his internal struggles, but in the end, he still did what he had agreed upon with the Elder.

Those who knew this plan were only four people: the Elder, Cain, Kael, and the heir chosen by the Elder: old Matsuda.

But among these people, Cain represented all the underground forces of the Pokémon world, old Matsuda represented the entire League faction, and Kael was the connecting link between both sides.

Most people, upon seeing the person chosen by the Elder, thought it was to pave the way for his granddaughter. There was also a small part that believed this was to prepare Cain’s path.

In reality, those who saw it as preparation for Cain had indeed understood some clues, but they also had not seen it completely.

Choosing old Matsuda as successor, the true objective, in a certain sense, was also because of Cain. But it could not be considered as preparing a path for Cain, rather it had to be understood as a way to allow Cain to better use the League’s resources to achieve this objective and complete this plan.

From this, it could be seen that, in order to allow the League to complete its transformation, the Elder also spared no effort in helping Cain complete this matter.

This old man who had devoted his entire life to the League, at the final moment, chose to believe in Cain, this member of Team Rocket.

Because only in Cain did the Elder feel the ability to change the world. Because of that, in the end, he chose to make a great gamble.

The facts proved that, in the end, he bet correctly, although he no longer had the opportunity to see it.

Cain explained in a simple way the bet between him and the Elder, as well as the reason and process of why he had done all of this.

The people standing before him felt as if they were riding a roller coaster.

"Because of that, Master and I agreed that, when I appeared again before the public, it would be the beginning of this operation," Cain finally said to everyone, spreading his hands.

Old Matsuda had hidden to one side, avoiding a frontal impact. Now Cain dragged him back out again to bear the burden together with him.

Just as expected, after Cain mentioned old Matsuda, those older people who were more familiar with him immediately looked at him.

But there was still a part of them that kept their attention on Cain.

Of course, it was Steven’s group.

Only, the current Steven was somewhat dazed. Or rather, he had lost his reason.

Cain walked toward Steven with some apology. He knew that, during this year, this dear friend of his had truly suffered a considerable blow.

Through the relationship with old Matsuda, news about Steven and the others was basically sent to his desk every day, to confirm their safety and confirm their growth.

"Steven..."

Cain spoke with a somewhat regretful tone.

But just as he opened his mouth.

Bang!

Suddenly, Steven, who was simply standing in place, violently raised his fist and punched toward Cain.

Although Cain had psychic power and reacted, after hesitating for zero point one seconds, he did not choose to block it.

Bang!

He fell heavily to the ground.

But Steven did not intend to let it pass. He directly sat on Cain and began hitting him with both fists...

"Stinking brat!!! That’s what you get for hiding it from us!!!"

"Bastard brat!! Did you think that if you told us, we would become a burden!?"

"Stinking brat!! You, this..."

Bang!

Bang!

In the end, he stopped talking. In any case, he continued hitting Cain’s face punch after punch.

Lance, Cynthia, and the others, who were standing behind, could no longer bear to look. They covered their eyes, although from time to time they secretly glanced, and then felt that it was too brutal.

During this year, besides improving the strength of his Pokémon, Steven also did not neglect training his own body. Now, when hitting Cain, truly every punch reached the flesh.

At first, Cain gave up resisting with his psychic power because he felt that he owed Steven something. But seeing that Steven showed not the slightest intention of stopping...

How could he allow that!?

Steven wanted to disfigure him!

He wanted to ruin his handsome face!!

He wanted to ruin his chances of getting a beautiful wife!!

He was definitely jealous that he was more handsome!!

Cain could no longer endure it. After several hits, he already felt a burning sting on his face.

In an instant, his psychic power covered his still-handsome face.

However, Steven still did not stop, so Cain could only use his ultimate technique.

"Lance, Cynthia! Hadn’t you still promised me one thing!? Now hurry up and come pull him off me!!"

Cain shouted at Lance and Cynthia.

Back then, on the Space-Time Continent, he had given Mega Stones to the two of them, and had also made them promise to do one thing for him. Now was precisely the time for that to take effect.

Lance and Cynthia, who originally were watching the show from the side and shouting "Go!" nonstop in their hearts, exchanged a glance, feeling extremely helpless.

Just when the beating was at its best moment, Cain actually used that condition to make them pull Steven away.

To be honest, if not because they had already promised it beforehand, Lance and Cynthia truly would not want to separate Steven.

When they learned Cain’s true situation, the impact they received was also not small. If even they were like this, it was easy to imagine how great the blow Steven received was.

Everyone had seen his changes.

He became silent, became extremely passionate about battles, even his combat style became fierce. Everyone knew why he did that.

It was to bring Cain back and give him a good beating!

So, after Lance and Cynthia exchanged a glance, they decided...

To approach slowly, moving their steps with extreme slowness, trying to win as much time as possible for Steven.

Seeing their movements, Cain also accepted his fate.

"..."

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!
