Chapter 148 Does she really have no weaknesses?
Should we avoid the brunt of those old-timers' attacks?
Hearing Lu Sha's youthful and spirited speech, King Mai Ye was momentarily at a loss for words. He could only offer a matter-of-fact reminder: "Their methods are very dirty. If they can't do anything to you openly, they might resort to some disgusting tactics, such as targeting Cattleya's family."
As soon as she finished speaking, Gadriya's icy voice came through the receiver: "King Maiye, please pass on a message to Vice President Damalanzang. I have no family left. I'll take all the direct attacks and targeting; let them do whatever they want. But if they dare to use any dirty tricks, I guarantee that Vice President Damalanzang will be a mute fool by the next day."
"Hey, hey, hey, Cattleya, don't be impulsive!"
Upon hearing this blunt death threat, King Maiye became anxious first.
The Sinnoh region has finally produced a peerless genius who can hold his own. If he is forced into becoming a villain by those high-ranking league officials, then what's the point of the Sinnoh League?
Other regions would probably laugh their heads off.
Even disregarding the impact on other regions, from the perspective of valuing talent alone, he absolutely could not accept this outcome.
"Crack! (Old Deng, your advice is useless. We're young people. If young people aren't hot-blooded, what kind of young people are we? You old Dengs should be more understanding of the temper of young people!)"
Accompanied by Lu Sha's extremely arrogant laughter, the phone was unilaterally and ruthlessly hung up with a "snap".
In fact, Lu Sha knew in his heart that there were some things he couldn't make decisions for the young lady.
If Cattleya had even the slightest concern for her family, he wouldn't have chosen the confrontational approach.
But since the young lady is willing to flip the table, why should a shark like him be a coward?
Hearing the busy tone on his phone, Mai Yetian was stunned for a long time.
"This is insane... These young people these days are something else!"
King Wheat Leaf gave a wry smile and suddenly raised his head.
At this moment, he could clearly sense that a super-powerful aura at the level of a king was rapidly approaching from the direction of the center of the lake.
That aura was sharp and undisguised, without the slightest attempt to conceal it.
"Damn it, why am I always the one cleaning up after everyone? I should have just sent those two old geezers, Kikuno and Mustard!"
Despite grumbling under his breath, Maiye Tianwang's hands moved incredibly fast as he decisively dialed Damalanzang's number.
Based on his years of experience, he predicted that if Gadria did not show up today, the masterminds behind the scenes would likely orchestrate an accidental explosion caused by the rampaging Pokémon at a hotel near Lake Risshiden to express their dissatisfaction with him, resulting in hundreds of casualties.
Immediately afterwards, negative news will flood the internet, all about his incompetence in guarding Lizhi Lake.
First, they would compare and contrast him with other superstars, and then they would guide public opinion to launch cyberbullying against him and his family.
Then, his family's businesses will suffer some losses.
Ultimately, there will be losses, but they won't be crippling.
There will be a lot of public outcry, but it won't affect his status.
After all, he is one of the current Sinnoh Elite Four members. As long as they don't completely break off relations, this can be considered a tacit understanding between the two sides, and the rules of the game have always been like this.
But today, it's clear that Cattleya and Lu Sha aren't planning to play by the rules.
They're clearly trying to overturn the table and expose all their shady schemes.
As for what effect this fighting style will have... even Wheat Leaf King can't say for sure.
But he had a feeling that those cunning creatures who were used to scheming in the gutter were actually most afraid of these barefoot madmen who weren't afraid of those wearing shoes.
As far as he knew, Cattleya had virtually no other attachments besides her Pokémon.
Before enrolling in Celebration Academy, Cattleya had already severed ties with her family.
At the time, her father celebrated this as a great blessing. Recently, when Cattleya's fame rose, this incident was exposed, attracting a lot of ridicule and mockery.
Unburdened and all alone, he is practically invincible.
After thinking about it carefully, King Maiye really felt that she had the confidence to ignore those high-ranking members of the alliance.
Politicians' blackmail tactics often only work on honest people who have vulnerabilities.
It might not be effective against a superpowered individual like Cattleya, who is unyielding and possesses absolute power.
The call was connected.
King Maiye repeated Cattleya's words in rapid succession, without missing a single one, as if firing off a machine gun.
After saying that, he hung up the phone decisively without giving Damalanzang any chance to react or speak.
Didn't you hear me?
If you didn't hear me, forget it!
If that old bastard Damalanzang were really turned into an idiot, that would be truly gratifying.
What if the Alliance investigates and suspects that Cattleya was behind the assassination?
Are you kidding me!
He, King Maiye, could vouch for it with his title as one of the Four Heavenly Kings. On the night of the incident, Cattleya was with those four old men, undergoing intensive closed-door training.
Sinnoh, Lily of the Valley.
Inside a luxurious private estate.
Sunlight streamed onto the neatly trimmed lawn, where the silver-haired, plump Damalanzang lay comfortably on a custom-made recliner, enjoying a professional SPA massage from two alluring women.
However, this leisurely feeling came to an abrupt end the moment the phone call ended.
He stared at the phone in his hand that was emitting a busy tone, stunned for a full two seconds.
"#!"
Damalanzang's originally rosy face instantly twisted into a ferocious expression. He suddenly raised his hand and smashed the phone hard into the lawn next to him.
"You shameless brat! The last person who dared to speak to me like that was that old geezer from the Yulong family. And before that, it was Daiki Yukinari! Those two old bastards couldn't kill me, so what are you, a mere weaned brat?"
Damalanzang, panting heavily, his fleshy chest heaving violently, said, "You'd better pray you're more difficult to deal with than they are!"
The Damaran family is deeply rooted in the League, with a family history spanning thousands of years. How could a mere Sinnoh girl dare to provoke them?
"That little girl... her name is Cattleya, right? What are her weaknesses?"
Damalan irritably twisted his fat body, pushed away the two nymph-lipped women who were about to come closer, and looked at the secretary standing aside waiting for orders with a gloomy face.
"this..."
The secretary broke out in a cold sweat. After a moment's thought, she cautiously said, "She... seems to care a lot about her Pokémon?"
"How could I not know she cares about Pokémon? What trainer doesn't care about their Pokémon?!"
Damalan was furious. He grabbed a teacup from the small table and smashed it hard at his secretary.
The tea spilled all over the secretary, and the cup shattered on the ground with a loud thud.
"She's a Champion-level psychic! Where am I supposed to find a Champion-level trainer stronger than her to kill her Pokémon in front of her? If I had that ability, I would have taken care of that little brat long ago!"
"But Cattleya really doesn't have any weaknesses in the conventional sense..."
The secretary, her head covered in tea, looked bitter.
The Alliance has already thoroughly investigated Cattleya.
If they could really find some leverage or weakness, they would have come to their door to coerce and bribe them long ago; there would be no need for them to sulk here.
Besides, aren't you a Champion-level trainer?
Although you're just boasting about it everywhere and your actual skill level isn't even as good as a gym leader, the six Pokémon you have are genuine Elite Four level Pokémon. You might not lose in a real battle, right?
Of course, the secretary only dared to think these words in her heart.
"What the hell is that look you're giving me?!"
The Tibetan man from Damalan was shrewd and saw through the secretary's little scheme at a glance. He then threw another teacup at her.
If this idiot in front of him weren't the youngest illegitimate son of his elder brother Damalanqi, and if he weren't usually obedient enough to be ordered around, he would have buried this good-for-nothing alive in Tianguan Mountain long ago.
"I ask, you answer!"
Damalanzang took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the evil fire in his heart.
He wouldn't have asked this idiot if he wasn't usually too lazy to look at the detailed information of those lower-level trainers.
"Does she have family? Can they be used as leverage to threaten her?"
"It's no use. She severed ties with her family before she even enrolled in school. This matter has caused quite a stir recently, and you can still find videos online of her parents calling her an ominous monster."
"What about friends? Are there any close friends you'd be willing to risk your life to protect?"
"No, that's not true. She was isolated from a young age because her superpowers went out of control. Later, she entered Zhuqing Academy, and even her interactions with geniuses like Cynthia were just casual acquaintances."
"Surely she has desires? Money? Power? Rare Pokémon? Catching legendary Pokémon? Saving the world?"
Damalanzang listed countless possibilities in one breath.
He has dealt with far too many geniuses in his life.
When those people first emerged, weren't they all arrogant and unruly?
But in the end, under the onslaught of money, power, or various other means, they all became obedient dogs in his hands.
"It seems like none of that applies. Her only obsession seems to be becoming the champion. But she has publicly stated that if she can't become the champion in Sinnoh, she'll go to Carlos to be the champion," the secretary reported truthfully, forcing a smile.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Damalan slammed the third teacup heavily on the table with a loud "bang".
The teacup, carved from ivory boar tusks, didn't break; instead, the impact made his hand ache.
"There's no such thing as a person without desires in this world! What exactly is your intelligence department doing?"
"Uncle... according to our repeated checks, Cattleya really doesn't have those worldly weaknesses. She's practically an emotionless machine, cold to everyone. Her only emotional attachment seems to be to that Gible, which is now Garchomp." The secretary sighed helplessly.
"Only has feelings for Pokémon, completely uninterested in people and power? How could such a freak be born into this world!" Damaranzo cursed angrily. "And your intelligence department! Such a huge potential threat, why didn't you report it in advance and monitor it closely?"
"She didn't display such terrifying superpowers when she was a child. According to the family's assessment, although her superpowers are remarkable, due to her personality flaws, her ultimate achievement will at most stop at the Heavenly King level, and she will not pose a core threat..." the secretary quickly explained.
"A 16-year-old King-level! And you're telling me she'll be stuck at the King-level for her entire life? Does that even make sense?" Damalanzang couldn't help but sneer, disdainfully looking down on the intelligence organizations' perspective.
"Uncle, what should we do now?"
Seeing that the other party hadn't smashed anything again, the secretary quickly and cautiously asked for instructions.
"What else can we do? Contact Chi Ri immediately! Tell him to stop the hotel demolition plan right away. I don't want to wake up one day and find myself a drooling idiot." Damalanzang gritted his teeth and gave the order.
"Huh? Uncle, do you mean...we should back down to her?" The secretary looked completely bewildered.
"Give in your piss! What do you know? Those are hundreds of lives at stake!"
Damalan glared with his triangular eyes and sneered, "It was clearly our alliance's higher-ups who, without prior knowledge, detected the Galactic Team's terrorist attack plan to blow up the hotel, and with the active cooperation and intervention of the outstanding entrepreneur Mr. Chiri, successfully prevented this horrific disaster. Do you understand?"
'
"Huh?" The secretary was completely dumbfounded.
"What nonsense! Just relay what Chi Ri said verbatim, he'll know how to cooperate!"
Damalanzang waved his hand impatiently, then sat heavily back on the recliner, patted his thigh expressionlessly, and gestured for the two women with slicked lips next to him to continue their service.
Since things have come to this point, getting angry won't help, so I might as well continue enjoying the massage.
Even though he had six Elite Four-level Pokémon that he had acquired at great expense, he was unwilling to fight to the death with an Elite Four-level psychic who was unyielding to both soft and hard tactics.
Who knows if the other person might suddenly teleport to his bedside and turn his brain into a complete mess without him even noticing.
His life is made of gold; he can't trade it for those cheap stones.
A moment later, seeing his secretary return after finishing her call, Damalanzang, who was enjoying a massage with his eyes half-closed, suddenly spoke up again: "By the way. Put that blonde girl aside for now, don't provoke her. But you all need to keep a close eye on her movements, and in all the overt procedures that don't cross the line, make things difficult for her."
"Remember, don't make any big moves. Just do as she said, only use overt methods, and absolutely don't resort to underhanded tactics."
""
"But Uncle, if we just superficially obstruct the process and don't make a fuss, it won't matter to a trainer of her caliber, right?" the secretary asked, her face full of doubt.
"Idiot! Who the hell expects this little obstacle to have any real impact on her?"
Damalan hummed comfortably twice. This massage skill has to be done by Sister Michun, it's really powerful!
"What I want is to send a signal to the outside world, to tell everyone that I am very dissatisfied with her! As long as this signal is sent out, countless fools who want to curry favor with us will naturally jump out to cause trouble for her and test her bottom line and patience on our behalf."
"If that little girl is really as bad-tempered as she claims, going on a killing spree and turning those Sinnoh idiots into morons, then she'll be completely finished in Sinnoh. If she's too afraid to act because of the pressure, then it means her previous threats were just bluffing, and we can deal with her slowly then."
A cunning and sinister glint flashed in Damalanzang's eyes.
So what if you have no weaknesses?
If there are no weaknesses, then create conflict!
Use public opinion, rules, and the endless stream of cannon fodder driven by greed to wear her down and make it impossible for her to move an inch on this land.
At that time, he won't even need to take action; the threat will naturally disappear amidst endless troubles.
And the wealth and power vacuum left behind by those fools who died for provoking Cattleya can be used to train the next batch of obedient dogs.
As long as we get through this period, Sinnoh will still be Sinnoh.
And Tadamalangzang remains the unshakeable vice president.
"By the way, pass the word down. The Sinnoh Elite Four seem to be getting a bit restless lately, especially that old bastard, Mugi. Find a pretext to suppress them all in terms of resources and public opinion."
Damalan snorted coldly, his eyes flashing with vengeance.
He doesn't have many redeeming qualities; his only redeeming quality is that he's vindictive.
His motto in life was to seek revenge.
"These Heavenly Kings may be powerful, but each of them has a family, attachments, and weaknesses. They are much easier to manipulate than that barefoot little girl."
He looked up at the azure sky, his gaze seemingly piercing through the clouds and reaching the distant Kanto region.
"Damu Xuecheng...you just wait! In my lifetime, I, Damalanzang, will return to Guandu and personally avenge the time you forced me to leave!"
