Chapter 974 - Trouble Follows Him
On his way out of the apartment, he made his way towards the underground garage while Chloe and Daisy took the front gate to go out, Julian used his superbike and wore a different set of clothes to avoid being recognized by the public and escaped from the media.
When Chloe and Daisy walked out, they got swarmed by the media but they were disappointed when they didn't see Julian, Chloe and Daisy acted as bait for Julian's escape.
Julian made his way towards Professor Sycamore's pokemon lab, Julian was surprised by how big this city really is, when he saw it from the top, it looked really big but being in the city was a completely different experience.
Since the city is circular in shape, the roads are designed completely differently, the only straight roads that can be found are the ones that head towards Prism tower which is the center of the city.
Professor Sycamore's lab is located on the far side of the city which made it a lot longer for Julian to get there, he soon found the lab, unlike Professor Oak's lab which is situated on top of a hill and has a massive land behind it, Professor Sycamore's lab is right between two massive buildings.
The lab itself looks quite big, as he was about to enter the lab, he heard a very powerful roar coming from inside which was then followed by the sound of explosions, this startled him and he rushed in to see what was happening.
He kicked open the door sending it flying and what he saw inside surprised him, he saw a rampaging Garchomp, Ash with some new kids around him, Professor Sycamore and his lab assistant, and of course the reason behind the current incident.
The three idiots from Team Rocket, Jessie, James, and Meowth.
Julian glanced at the Garchomp and noticed some kind of weird energy ring that was glowing red around its neck and causing it pain.
Julian frowned seeing this and stared at Team Rocket.
Julian "You three idiots, what did you just do?"
Julian asked in a very commanding voice, hearing his voice everyone stopped and looked at the entrance, they saw a man in a red jacket looking coldly at Team Rocket.
The three idiots also turned around and saw Julian and froze on the spot, even though this person's face was under a mask, they could never forget who he really is.
They trembled in fear and took a step back.
Meowth "We are fucked, nyaaaa~"
He said while sweating bullets, both Jessie and James's face also turned as white as a sheet, but before Julian could take any action.
The rampaging Garchomp suddenly used a Dragon Pulse and shot it at the team rocket trio and sent them blasting through the wall, the three disappeared like a shooting star.
The Garchomp didn't stop and started using Dragon Pulse and tried to destroy everything, the Dragon Pulse was aimed straight at Julian so he moved to the side and dodged it, it then continued its rampage and shot Dragon Pulse at other people inside the room.
Julian rushed towards the little blond girl and swooped her away from the Dragon Pulse, the little girl was scared and tightly held onto Julian's jacket.
The Garchomp seems to be in a lot of pain as it took flight and went right through the wall and escaped.
Julian "Ash go after it!"
Julian shouted at Ash, Ash snapped out of his state and nodded his head, and charged at the door but he was suddenly stopped by a small blue frog-like pokemon who decided to join him, as Ash, Pikachu, and the blue frog pokemon rushed out of the lab to chase after the Garchomp.
Julian put the little girl down, a blond boy who seems to be around Ash's age rushed towards the little girl and hugged her tightly.
"Are you fine?" He asked worried while checking her.
"I am, this uncle saved me." She said and pointed at Julian.
Julian "Uncle? Do I sound like an uncle to you?"
Julian was stunned, he was never called Uncle till now, this hit his nerve.
"I am so sorry, my sister doesn't know what she is saying!" The blond boy started to apologize in frustration.
"Bro... I feel sorry for Garchomp..." The little girl said with a worried tone.
"Let's go to!!!!" The blond boy in glasses said and rushed behind Ash along with his little sister.
Julian sighed seeing this, he totally forgot how unlucky Ash really is, wherever he goes trouble follows right behind him.
Sycamore "Check on the other pokemons!"
Sycamore ordered his assistant, his assistant nodded and rushed inside leaving Julian and Professor Sycamore and Julian alone, Sycamore looked at Julian and walked towards him.
Sycamore "Thank you for your help, may I know who you are?"
Sycamore asked as Julian's face was covered.
Julian "It's me"
Julian said and removed his mask revealing his identity.
Sycamore was surprised but glad at the same time.
Sycamore "Mr. Julian, it's glad to finally meet you but the current circumstances are not one where we should be showing hospitality."
Sycamore said.
Julian "Indeed, let's go"
Julian nodded and walked out with Professor Sycamore.
Julian "Do you know where Garchomp is headed?"
Julian asked.
Sycamore took out his phone and checked the live broadcast that was being broadcasted live right now.
Sycamore "Garchomp is headed towards Prism Tower!"
He exclaimed.
Julian "Let's go then".
