"You don't have to worry about opening the gym. I will take care of it. You guys should focus on the first two tasks." Aoki knew that they were surprised, but there were some things that they didn't know.
If they knew that Aoki's friend was the young master of the Devon Company and that his teacher was a veteran trainer in the Alliance, they wouldn't find it so difficult.
After all, he was a member of the Alliance.
Only a member of the Rocket Team was able to open a gym. None of them were below the Heavenly King Stage.
Aoki continued, "What about the investigation that I asked you to do?"
"Let me explain. After we arrived in Fuye Town two days ago, we did a preliminary investigation. We found that not only were the forces not strong on the surface, but the underground forces were also average. The most powerful person on the surface was the mayor's son. He is almost 30 years old and has the strength of a Squadron Leader. He is also the chief of police of Fuye Town and is in charge of public security." The one who spoke was Yeric.
Yeric continued, "There are two underground forces in Fuye Town. One is an underground gang called the Black Snake Gang. They mainly rely on protection fees to maintain the gang's normal expenses. Eighty percent of the shops and merchants in Fuye Town have to pay a certain amount of protection fees on time every month. Otherwise, they can't continue to do business. This is one of the main reasons why Fuye Town's business has been stagnant.
The other force is called the Celestial Hunting Group. It is a hunting group registered by the Hunter's Union. They are based in Fuye Town and often go out to hunt elves to earn money. Their main target is the wild elves in the forest around Fuye Town. "
Yeric briefly explained the three forces in Fuye Town. On the surface, only one of them belonged to the Alliance. Fortunately, the hunting group mainly focused on making money and wouldn't interfere with the lives of the residents. Otherwise, Fuye Town would be no different from a slum.
"Have you investigated the specific strength of these two forces? And Miyamoto, what did you say when I asked you to check the black market in Fuye Town? "Aoki asked.
"Due to the short period of time, we didn't do much research on the specific strength of these two forces, but with the mayor's son's strength, it is estimated that they are on par with each other," Yeric explained.
"Regarding the black market in Fuye Town, I've done a preliminary investigation and found that it's actually just a place for the Black Snake Gang to set up. Moreover, it's very shabby. Calling it a black market is already a compliment. Moreover, there aren't many outsiders in Fuye Town, so the black market doesn't have any special function," Miyamoto added.
Among Aoki's subordinates, only Miyamoto knew about the black market. After all, both Skar and Yeric had spent most of their time on the trial island.
Even though Yeric had lived with his uncle for a period of time, he had spent most of his time absorbing the knowledge of the fairies so that he wouldn't encounter too many unknowns on the trial island.
"Then your mission today is very simple. All of you go out and infiltrate Fuye Town. See how big the Black Snake Gang is and how strong their leaders are. When the time comes, make a decision on how to deal with this Black Snake Gang." Aoki directly finalized their mission for the day.
"Yes!" The six of them stood up and replied.
"Okay, you guys go. Remember to pack up the Rocket Team's things."
The six of them nodded their heads in agreement, and left in a hurry.
This was the first time they were doing something under Aoki. No matter who it was, they wanted to do it well.
Meanwhile, Aoki went to a house at the back alone.
Although he believed that Yeric wouldn't do anything, his uncle might not, so Aoki asked Phantom Stone to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the house.
In the end, there was indeed no problem.
It was better to be safe than sorry. This was Aoki's principle.
He didn't enter the house, but went directly to the flat ground behind the house. It was obvious that no one had taken care of this place for a long time. The ground was overgrown with weeds, and some of the original training grounds were covered by weeds.
However, the area of the open space was very large. It just lacked a pool.
Now, Aoki had many water-type elves in his hands. Although leaving the water didn't affect them much, having a pool was, of course, better.
He directly took out the pokeball and released all the elves that he had subdued long ago. As for the elves that he obtained after the trial, he hadn't properly greeted them yet.
"Everyone, follow the original division of labor and deal with everything here. Then, Violent Carp Dragon, Pincer Tail Scorpion, and Dazed Beast, you guys are responsible for digging a large pool here. The depth and area must be enough for the Violent Carp Dragon to roll around inside.
Tropical Carp, I know you don't want to do anything, so go to the roof and monitor this area. As long as you see humans enter rashly, stop them. If they want to force their way in, kick them out. If you let one person in, I'll cut off your meals for three days! "Aoki ordered the elves.
The elves had done these things the last time they were in Zijin City, so they were quite familiar with it.
Now that their strength had increased, it was much faster for them to do things.
As the elves began to move, Aoki took out a few more pokeballs.
They were Fire Chicken, Mosquito Coil Tadpole, and Cocoa Dola.
He released all three elves.
Although Mosquito Coil Tadpole needed to be in water to move normally, it discovered that it was on land when it came out. It immediately sunk into a small puddle on the ground and nested in it.
"Fire Chicken, this should be the first time we've met. My name is Aoki, please take care of me in the future!" As he spoke, Aoki took out the high-grade energy cube and placed it in front of Fire Chicken.
Fire Chicken was originally a little arrogant, but it forgot all about it when it saw the energy cube in Aoki's hand.
After all, it was still young and did not have much resistance to food. Moreover, it had just entered the growth stage, so its mind was still relatively simple.
"Mosquito Coil Tadpole, you know what kind of situation you were in before. Believe me, I won't let you go back to that kind of place in the future. Follow me, and I'll help you grow." Then, it was Mosquito Coil Tadpole's turn.
The Mosquito Coil Tadpole had always been locked in the water tank of the Hunter's Guild. Although the water tank was quite big, the young Mosquito Coil Tadpole understood what was going on every time he saw familiar sprites being bought. Now, it was his turn.
What it had been worried about did not happen, and it seemed that the person who bought it was treating it well.
It slowly poked its head out of the water and ate the energy cube in Aoki's hand.
Finally, it was Cocoa Dola. It could be said that she was in contact with Aoki the most now. Without needing to explain too much, Aoki directly took out the energy cube that she liked to eat.
He patted her head. Since he had promised to help her grow, some things had to be put on the agenda.
For the rest of the afternoon, Crow's Head and the others were busy dealing with the venue, while Aoki directly got to know Fire Chicken, Mosquito Coil Tadpole, and Cocoa Dola.
Among the three elves, Cocoa Dola was the oldest, and she was also the strongest in level and strength. Perhaps because Fire Chicken was a Fire Elf, it quickly got along well with Aoki and the other elves. She was the youngest, and her strength and level were also the lowest.
As for Mosquito Coil Tadpole, it was more shy, perhaps because of its previous living environment.
