Chapter 1700 - 1694: Cain’s Path!

Hearing Kael's analysis, Cain was slightly surprised. But after thinking about it carefully, it was reasonable that he could deduce these things.

After all, no matter how one looked at it, Kael was the former heir of the Drako family. The energy and resources invested in his training back then were not something an ordinary person could imagine.

Only Steven, Cain's best friend, could compare with the former Kael in that aspect.

Added to that, he had also been the ruler of the Sacred Church, a force capable of shaking the entire League to a certain extent. His vision and ability were not inferior to Cain's own.

So, if Cain asked himself whether he could deduce it, he felt there would be no problem.

"Yes. It is true that the Boss has come with Team Rocket."

From Cain's words, Kael also heard that Cain still respected Giovanni quite a bit.

However, Kael's current attention was not on that.

"After me, Giovanni has finally acted as well. Thinking about it, the old man must be quite sad. Back then, with great effort, he saw two people with good potential and ability, but now, one after another, they have led people to attack the League. Thinking about it, he probably feels that he has failed quite badly..."

"It really is..."

Cain nodded in agreement, and his expression became somewhat complex.

The council Elder had probably also seen it. The current strength of the League was still very great, and it still had the capital to look down on the entire Pokémon world.

But every person who launched an impact against the League forced him to respond with all his strength. And people like that had never been born inside the League.

The League, indeed, produced who knew how many young talents every year, and these people gradually became pillars of one generation after another. But they had always been unable to become someone like Kael or Giovanni, someone capable of assuming an enormous responsibility.

This was also the main reason why the council Elder, until now, had been unable to give up the position of overall president of the Pokémon League.

The League had many talents, but it had no talents at the absolute peak!

Thinking of this, Cain suddenly understood a little why, after knowing his true identity, the Elder did not act directly against him, but chose to observe.

"Probably... he wants to see whether there is a method to change it..."

Thinking of this, Cain murmured.

"What?" Kael looked at Cain with some surprise.

"Nothing. What do you plan to do now?"

This was the second time Cain asked this question.

Kael smiled slightly. At this moment, he did not at all have the appearance of someone defeated after seeing the force he himself created completely swept away, after losing both hands and becoming a prisoner. Now he seemed even calmer and more confident than when he was the bishop of the Sacred Church.

The fact that the council Elder did not execute him on the spot meant that, in the Elder's eyes, he still had great usefulness. That also meant that sooner or later, the time would come when he would leave this place.

"What do you want me to do?" Kael looked at Cain and asked calmly.

"Hahahahahaha!"

Cain suddenly burst out laughing.

He laughed for a long time, while Kael calmly watched him.

During the period when he was the bishop of the Sacred Church, because Cain had repeatedly attacked the Sacred Church, under his instruction, information about Cain had been investigated extremely thoroughly. Both within the League and within Team Rocket, they carried out very detailed investigations.

Because of that, Kael clearly knew what kind of person Cain was.

In Kael's own words, only one word could describe him...

Terrifying!

That someone who almost became patriarch of the Drako family, who became bishop of the Sacred Church, and whose position stood at the summit of the entire Pokémon world, had that impression of Cain and used the word "terrifying," already said a lot.

A poor boy born as a commoner, without any foundation, joined Team Rocket and participated in the cruelest trial, a place that for anyone was like hell. In the midst of multiple Team Rocket factions, in the end, it was an inexperienced youth who took first place.

Then he went alone to the unknown Hoenn region. Without Team Rocket's support, he created Team Heaven, a force that at that time could not even leave a small town like Leafy Town. With the relationships he built within the League, he became a Gym Leader and guardian of an area.

From then on, he was unstoppable. Both his strength and his status completely soared.

He made the best friends, endured the most poisons...

After raising his own strength, he just happened to take advantage of the destruction of Team Magma and Team Aqua. Team Heaven rose by taking advantage of the situation, and with the foundation of a single-city underground force, it swallowed the entire Hoenn region in one bite. In only a few years, not only did he stabilize the situation of the Hoenn region, but he also turned Team Heaven into a force capable of comparing with organizations at the level of Team Galactic or Team Plasma.

The most terrifying thing was that, in the incidents of Team Magma and Team Aqua, Cain's shadow had been seen more than once.

Because of that, whether Team Magma and Team Aqua walked toward their destruction by themselves, or whether they were pushed into it by Cain from behind, was already impossible to trace.

Afterward, his strength continued increasing again and again, and he fought against the Sacred Church with wit and courage, disintegrating it from within.

And what Kael valued most was that Cain could become the deputy leader of Team Rocket.
