Chapter 950: First Encounter with Mewtwo_1

Hualan Island was a secret location that appeared during The Beast War era.

It was extraordinarily rich in mineral resources such as the Water Stone and Moon Stone.

Besides that, there was an abundance of other precious resources, such as Chinese medicinal herbs and Tree Fruit.

Due to its geographical location, Hualan Island was designated by the Alliance to be developed jointly by the Trainer Associations of both Hua Nation and Japan.

Decades later, due to its beautiful environment and rich Pokémon resources, Hualan Island had become an island suitable for Trainer families to settle on.

The largest city on Hualan Island, "HuaTian City," was the main gathering place for the 600,000 residents, bustling on ordinary days with crowded battle arenas and thronging commercial areas.

However, after Mewtwo occupied Hualan Island, the streets had become very desolate, with only a few human Trainers active.

Although Mewtwo merely restricted the hostages on the island from leaving and didn't limit their freedom on the island, not many people dared to wander the streets at this time.

Currently, these 600,000 hostages could only seek comfort by receiving information from the outside world.

Today… was the day of the Mewtwo Game, the day they were most looking forward to.

Because if the two nations' Associations won, they would be safe and could leave this place.

As for the possibility of losing?

Regardless of the likelihood, no one on the island hoped for that outcome.

Countless people were reinforcing their belief in the certain victory of their Associations.

"It's today..."

"There are still two hours left until the game starts at 9:00..."

"Haven't the Twelve Branches arrived yet?"

In the streets of HuaTian City and in the skies above, many patrolling Trainers were also extremely anxious at this time.

Some of them were originally from the island, while others had volunteered to come to the island as volunteers.

They all knew that Hualan Island was a dangerous place, but 600,000 hostages were ultimately an unstable factor; under tremendous fear, many might think irrationally seek an early end or even directly rebel against Mewtwo.

The Associations of both nations, understanding Mewtwo's power, naturally couldn't let such situations arise, so they had to arrange a force of armed volunteers to serve as hostages for Mewtwo, while managing the residents on the island to prevent any uprising.

Managing one's own people was better than being managed by Mewtwo.

Now, these people were also under immense mental pressure, with a month of high-intensity work leaving them nearly unable to catch their breath.

People both on the island and outside were looking forward to the Mewtwo Game, hoping for a smooth day so that the Sun could rise normally tomorrow.

In the center of HuaTian City.

As the Mewtwo Game approached, inside the luxurious high-tech castle, Mewtwo with its silvery white body entered a room resembling a "prison."

On the bed inside was an old man who looked scruffy, like a vagabond, seemingly in meditation. As Mewtwo approached, he suddenly opened his eyes.

"It's the day of the Mewtwo Game, isn't it?"

Even though all Pokémon were under Mewtwo's control and he himself was a hostage, Master Kong Hai did not fear and faced Mewtwo directly.

"You are the strongest human Trainer I have seen so far, but still very weak," Mewtwo said coldly. "I plan to give you an opportunity to leave and carry a message."

"What exactly have you done with my Pokémon?" Kong Hai was filled with anger.

Indeed, he had been sent by the China Association to gather information about Hualan Island and Mewtwo, but he had hardly had any chance to do anything; he was discovered by Mewtwo as soon as he set foot on the island.

Mewtwo, floating in the sky, had taken control of the Pokémon protecting him with a Psyshock, and the rest of his Pokémon had been subdued by Mewtwo using a different kind of Black Poké Ball before they even had the opportunity to emerge from their Red and White Balls.

Even the Red and White Balls were subdued along with them.

The ability to subdue Pokémon already captured and even to capture a Poké Ball was beyond Kong Hai's comprehension, and simultaneously, he felt the helplessness of Trainers in the face of Mewtwo.

The two were not even in the same dimension.

"Do you want to know?" Mewtwo's tone was calm, watching Kong Hai in the cell.

Without waiting for Kong Hai's response, it slowly turned and stepped forward.

At the same time, its body flickered with luminescence as its figure gradually vanished.

Teleport!

Taken along with Mewtwo by teleportation was Master Kong Hai; in the blink of an eye, they arrived at a special laboratory under Mewtwo's power.

The lab was extremely dark, with several cultivation chambers of varying sizes housing a number of different Pokémon that were asleep; Kong Hai, upon arriving, looked bewildered until he recognized the Pokémon in the chambers, and his expression turned to utter shock.

Grumpig, Dreamweaver, Hudidi, Huge Gold Monster, Dumb Hippo, Coconut Tree… The Pokémon floating in the nutrient solution were indeed the core combat forces he had brought here.

"You—" Kong Hai's eyes widened as he quickly noticed the difference between them and his own Pokémon.

"They are clones derived from the genes of your Pokémon, and they are far stronger than their originals," Mewtwo explained.

"In the upcoming Mewtwo Game, they will all be key players."

As Mewtwo looked at the stunned Kong Hai, it spoke calmly. It had read the memories of several dozen researchers from an organization known as Rocket Team and, combining its learning and inferential abilities with its superpowers, mastered cloning technology far beyond the era. Given time, Mewtwo would eventually unify the planet.
