Since the Unown were not with Molly on the top floor of the crystal tower, Natsui had no choice but to go to other places to continue searching for them.
He called out Gengar, had it use Shadow Ball to break through the crystals and open a path, and then left Molly's bedroom through the sa entrance they had used before.
And this ti, to save energy, he simply jumped onto Gengar's back and had it carry him quickly downwards.
After flying through the crystal network for a while, he t Misty and Brock halfway. At this mont, the two of them were panting, struggling to climb the stairs. Seeing Natsui flying down from above, they were surprised and quickly waved at him.
"Natsui! Over here! Over here!"
Natsui patted Gengar's shoulder, and it understood, carrying him to them.
"How did you two end up together?"
"Don't even ntion it," Misty sighed. "Those Pokémon that Molly created are really strong. Each one is very powerful. Although we weren't completely helpless, we had a really tough ti. But she suddenly disappeared just now, and we don't know where she went, so we had a chance to co and see what's going on."
And seeing that Natsui was alone, Misty was curious and couldn't help but ask, "Natsui, where are you going? Where's Ash?"
"I'm going to other places to find those Unown, so I split up with him. Right now, Ash is up there fighting Entei alone. You guys should hurry up and help him."
Misty's eyes lit up. "Should I go with you to find the Unown? As for Ash, Brock can go and support him."
"No need," Natsui smiled and patted her head. "Don't underestimate my strength. And compared to , Ash needs more help. Alright, you guys hurry up and go."
"Alright…" Misty lowered her head in disappointnt. Although Natsui's intimate gesture made her very happy, to be able to go on an adventure with him, even for a short while, had always been her greatest wish…
After parting with Misty and Brock, Gengar continued to fly downwards.
He didn't know if it was because Molly was now focused on battling Ash and had neglected to maintain the illusionary space, but this ti, on the way back, Natsui found that the two illusionary levels they had passed through had all disappeared.
This could be considered good news, as it at least saved him a lot of ti.
After flying down for a while longer, he didn't find the Unown, but unexpectedly, he ran into the Team Rocket trio again.
At this mont, the two humans and one owth were sweating profusely, struggling to climb to the top floor with their hands and feet, for so unknown reason.
Seeing Natsui, the three of them shivered and huddled together, looking weak and helpless.
"Oh no, it's Natsui!"
"We're dood! What is he doing here too!?"
It was unknown if it was because Natsui's reputation in Team Rocket was too notorious, or if their past experiences had left too deep an impression on the trio, but at so point, whenever they encountered Natsui, not only did they have no intention of resisting, but every ti they saw him, they looked terrified.
"Hey!" Natsui first had Gengar stop in mid-air, then shouted at them, "Jas, Jessie, have you seen those Unown?"
Seeing Natsui's gentle attitude, and that he hadn't imdiately attacked, the trio was visibly relieved.
But… Unown? Jessie and Jas looked at each other, clearly hearing the na for the first ti.
And seeing their confusion, Natsui patiently described the Unown to them. "They're the Pokémon that look like letters. They look very mysterious."
Hearing him say this, the two finally understood.
Jas pointed down. "We saw many of those Pokémon in a room after we fell… uh, I an, after we arrived here. But they were all gathered together, circling around and emitting a black light. We don't know what they were doing, but it looked very scary."
"Thanks," Natsui said, waving at them. He was about to leave, but then he suddenly rembered the scene of their balloon being shot down by Entei and couldn't help but smile. "You guys diverted its attention for us before. Although it wasn't your intention, you did a good job. Keep it up in the future."
With that, before the trio could react, Gengar had already carried him away, disappearing into the darkness.
And after Natsui had gone, the Team Rocket trio was completely baffled, having no idea what he had ant.
Jas looked at Jessie, his face full of confusion. "Diverted its attention? What did we do just now?"
"I don't know," Jessie shrugged, but she clearly didn't care. "Don't worry about it. That man is too dangerous. As long as he doesn't cause trouble for us, we should be thankful."
Jas couldn't help but hesitate.
That being said, if Natsui's attitude towards them had been like Ash's, full of hostility from the start, he wouldn't have thought much of it. But now, his gentle deanor was actually more terrifying, making one wonder what he was really up to.
But Jessie was right about one thing. Natsui was too dangerous. It was better to stay as far away from him as possible.
Beside them, seeing the two still chatting leisurely, owth couldn't help but kick them and urge, "Alright, you two, stop talking! Whether it's Natsui or those Unown, this place gives a very strange feeling. Let's just grab the treasure and get out of here quickly."
"Right, right! owth is right!" At the ntion of treasure, Jessie's eyes lit up, and she forgot everything else. "Since that guy flew down from above, that ans the treasure must be hidden at the top of the tower! After we get the treasure, let's get out of this creepy place quickly."
After the Team Rocket trio continued to climb up and were completely out of sight, Gengar and Natsui, who had already left, suddenly flew out from a corner.
Looking in the direction they had left, Gengar said in surprise, "Are these guys here looking for treasure? But there's no treasure here at all."
"Who knows," Natsui said, shaking his head helplessly. These three, who were blinded by greed, were really overthinking it. A place that looked so dangerous, how could there be any treasure? It was a complete waste of effort.
It could only be said that perhaps their fates were intertwined. These guys were like a tail, sticking closely to Ash. No matter where he went, they could follow, and he couldn't shake them off.
"But those guys have also gone up. Will they cause trouble for Ash and the others? Should we go and help?"
"Forget it. The Unown are more important," Natsui said, seeming completely unconcerned about the Team Rocket trio. "Let's leave them for Ash to deal with. And with those three involved, it's not necessarily a bad thing. They might even play so unexpected role."
