"My lord, my name is Sima Er. From now on, please call me Er. If you want to know something, I'll tell you everything."
Roy never cared what his name was. After all, he was just a pawn being used. Once a pawn like this had been squeezed of all its value, it would become meaningless. But knowing his name now was nothing more than giving the man some psychological comfort.
"I want to know about the higher-level person you report to, and what kind of Pokémon he transforms into. After all, even you can change into a Pokémon, so naturally he should be better than you. That's just the most basic assumption. He shouldn't be the same type of Pokémon as you."
How powerful could an ordinary Pokémon really be?
The truly powerful ones were those with extremely large bodies and tremendously destructive power. If human beings could also transform into forms like that, then if wars started in the future, they would play the most devastating role.
Sima Er also bowed at this time, explaining to Roy what kind of transformation the higher-level person they reported to could perform.
"Because we're only members of the outermost second-tier, we've completed relatively few tasks, and there are only a small number of opportunities to see the boss transform. But he seems to be fused with Onix."
"Usually, his body looks about the same size as ours, but when it comes to fighting, he can transform his body into the same shape as Onix—with a height of twenty to thirty meters. His body is as thick as a large tree that would take three or four people to encircle. The most terrifying thing is that with such a huge body, his Hyper Beam is extremely powerful."
It turned out to be Onix.
"The difference from us is that the boss has fourth-tier strength, which is much stronger than ours, and he possesses extremely powerful defensive capabilities..."
Sima Er explained very clearly, expressing everything he could understand.
Roy also thought about it for a while. He hadn't expected that from a world where Pokémon existed, he would enter the gateway to another new world. However, this gateway to the new world was full of dangers. If even human beings possessed such tremendous power while being more cunning and unpredictable than Pokémon, then when they wielded that powerful strength—
Perhaps there would be no incidents in the next ten years, but in the future, when the power of Pokémon became more and more widespread, and the power of Pokémon that humans could possess could no longer be hidden, such a reckoning was estimated to not be too far away.
"Besides, for people like us who can change from human beings into Pokémon and even possess the power of Pokémon—we have tier levels. How are they distinguished? It seems the higher-ups said that the greater the inherent power quality plus the threat level, the higher the tier ranking. The lower the threat, of course, the lower the tier we can achieve."
Weavile was a Pokémon with only one form, so no matter how much strength was developed, it wouldn't become much stronger, unless humans could create a qualitative change in the power they obtained after inheriting this ability—just like Lucario.
Could it be that after Lucario evolved to his final stage, his strength was fixed there? Wasn't it the same way that he could greatly strengthen his Constitution and defensive ability through training?
Or greatly enhance his combat ability?
But the only question was whether the Black Moon organization had tried using this special experimental subject for tests. For example—humans transforming into Pokémon.
Pokémon could use Mega Evolution, use Z-Moves, and utilize Dynamax.
If these Pokémon forms that humans could transform into could also use these methods of increasing combat power, then it seemed the total war in this world was truly approaching. What Roy didn't know was whether in this world, such experiments only existed in this country, or if such sinister organizations existed all over the world.
If he truly wanted to know the secrets of the Black Moon Organization, he must either join them or possess strong enough strength to investigate and uncover the information.
Capturing the most powerful Pokémon—like Rayquaza, Kyogre, or Groudon. To obtain the power of these Legendary Pokémon.
Like before, killing the Pokémon in front of them.
Then using certain methods to obtain their power. Not to mention whether those Trainers had such strength to accomplish this step.
Could they guarantee 100% success even after obtaining the Pokémon cores of these Legendary Pokémon?
"What else do you know? Can you get in contact with your superior?"
It was quite difficult for him to answer certain things immediately, but the latter question was actually easier.
Sima Er also scratched his head and replied at the same time: "If it's the boss, normally he's at his own base, or in a small town not far from here."
"And this time, since we've obtained the core we were after, we can take it back and claim credit."
"Good. Then I'll give you such an opportunity. I'll pretend to be a younger follower who wants to join the Black Moon organization with you. But you have to speak well of me and attract your superior's attention so I can learn more methods."
Roy said this confidently.
But such confidence couldn't conceal the worry from the person next to him.
"I know you're very powerful, my lord, but after all, he is my superior. While you have the strength to deal with us and can achieve instant kills, when dealing with that boss, you may not be his match. Just in case..."
What Sima Er was saying was—what if Roy wasn't a match for their superior and got killed by the higher-level executive? Then what would happen to him? Wouldn't he become that kind of unlucky scapegoat?
To reassure Sima Er, Roy also gave him some peace of mind.
"Don't you see these Pokémon around me? The weakest ones have tremendous potential. If I really can't match that superior, you can claim these Pokémon around me as your spoils of war. So even if you've made a big mistake, you'll be forgiven."
