"Flying-type Gym?"
Even Giovanni was montarily stunned.
Before he could say anything else—
"Tyranitar—Hurricane Burst!"
Sam gave the command imdiately.
Tyranitar had already prepared the attack.
It opened its massive jaws, letting out a powerful roar as countless wind blades burst from its mouth.
The invisible wind was shaped into tangible blades under Tyranitar's control.
Dozens of cyan wind blades whistled through the air, gathering together into a violent storm before surging forward.
The sky seed filled with slicing wind.
---
Facing the overwhelming barrage, Rhyperior didn't dare underestimate the attack.
It raised its thick, armored arms to defend itself.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The wind blades slamd into Rhyperior's heavy armor, producing sharp tallic sounds.
Although the attack couldn't cut through its armor—
The impact alone caused considerable damage.
Rhyperior staggered slightly, swinging its massive arms as it tried to shake off the lingering pain.
---
Nearby, Ariana watched the battle calmly.
"Giovanni-sama," she said respectfully.
"The helicopter is almost here."
Giovanni glanced at his watch under the faint moonlight.
"I see."
He looked back toward Sam.
"It seems our battle will have to continue next ti."
---
"Next ti?"
Sam frowned.
He had just started getting excited.
How could it end like this?
"Giovanni," Sam said firmly, "you're not leaving yet."
"The battle isn't over."
"The initiative is now in my hands."
"You can't leave without my permission."
"Tyranitar!"
Sam was about to order another attack—
But Giovanni calmly tossed another Poké Ball.
A new Pokémon appeared on the battlefield.
It was just an ordinary Beedrill.
At first glance, it looked completely unremarkable.
Nothing special about it at all.
But the mont Sam saw it—
Every nerve in his body tightened.
His instincts scread danger.
Because his system scan had already revealed the truth.
Pokémon: Beedrill
Type: Bug / Poison
Strength: High Champion Level
Potential: Champion
Evaluation:
Do not move.
You will die.
---
The warning was marked in bright red.
It was enough to send chills down anyone's spine.
This Beedrill gave Sam more pressure than any opponent he had ever faced.
Not even Steven's ga tagross or Cynthia's Garchomp had created such a terrifying sense of danger.
Maybe those Pokémon were stronger overall.
But in terms of lethal threat—
Giovanni's Beedrill was far more terrifying.
Just like the system warning suggested—
If Sam made the wrong move…
He could actually die here.
Beedrill might take ti to defeat Tyranitar.
But killing him?
That would be far too easy.
---
Sam imdiately lowered his hand.
"See you next ti, Giovanni."
He canceled the attack order instantly.
After all—
A wise person knows when to step back.
Compared to the thrill of battle…
Life was more important.
Giovanni smiled slightly.
"A wise decision."
---
Soon, the distant sound of helicopter blades echoed across the night sky.
A helicopter descended toward the rooftop.
On its side was a large red "R."
Giovanni and Ariana calmly boarded the helicopter.
Monts later—
It disappeared into the night.
---
Only after confirming Giovanni had truly left did Sam and Looker finally relax.
To be honest—
Facing Giovanni and Ariana had placed trendous pressure on both of them.
If the battle had continued—
Things might have turned extrely dangerous.
And there was another problem.
Viridian Gym now belonged to Sam.
If the battle had destroyed it…
He wouldn't even know where to cry.
So in a way—
This ending wasn't bad.
---
Looker suddenly laughed.
"How about we grab a drink tonight?"
"At Sam's restaurant."
The man who had risen to a high position in Interpol clearly understood people well.
Even the way he addressed Sam had changed.
"Gym Leader."
Sam laughed awkwardly.
"Mr. Looker, the horoscope hasn't even been confird yet."
"It's a little early to congratulate ."
Even so—
The smile on Sam's face was impossible to hide.
Being called Gym Leader didn't bother him at all.
---
If it were so obscure gym, he might hesitate.
But this was Viridian Gym.
No one could resist its influence.
After all—
Who was recognized as the strongest Trainer in Kanto, aside from the Elite Four?
The answer was obvious.
Giovanni.
Because of him, Viridian Gym had long been considered the strongest gym in Kanto.
Looking at the other gyms:
Pewter Gym and Cerulean Gym were relatively ordinary.
Vermilion Gym and Celadon Gym were decent, but still not top-tier.
Saffron Gym, led by Sabrina, had an excellent reputation.
Fuchsia Gym, led by Koga, was powerful but low-profile.
And Cinnabar Gym had practically beco a retirent hobby for Blaine.
Compared with them—
Viridian Gym clearly stood at the top.
Once Sam inherited it, he would effectively beco the strongest Trainer in Kanto below the Elite Four.
That kind of opportunity was impossible to refuse.
---
Sam had an ambitious dream.
He wanted to beco the strongest Trainer in the Pokémon world.
But every journey required steps.
Taking over Viridian Gym was a huge step forward.
Of course he wouldn't reject it.
---
At 2:00 AM, the largest night restaurant in Viridian City suddenly welcod a large group of unusual guests.
All of them wore black trench coats.
Their fierce expressions scared the receptionist at the front desk.
If Sam hadn't quickly explained the situation—
The trembling receptionist might have called the police.
After learning they were Interpol agents, she finally relaxed.
She led them to the largest private room in the restaurant.
---
Once everyone gathered inside, Looker announced loudly:
"To celebrate the successful completion of today's mission—"
"And Sam's promotion to Viridian Gym Leader—"
"That makes it a double celebration!"
"Everyone eat and drink as much as you want tonight!"
The room instantly exploded with excitent.
"Long live!!"
"Long live!!"
Everyone cheered loudly.
Everyone—
Except Sam.
He simply smiled quietly.
Because he knew—
Tonight's story…
Was far from over.
