While flying, Aoki gave the green bird a simple explanation of how he met Reggie and Ace.
After all, the green bird should know Reggie and Ace. The two spirits could be considered fellow townsmen.
Furthermore, based on the green bird's reaction, she clearly did not expect Gu Hai to have such a backup plan.
Aoki knew about the green bird's pride. As a friend, she had already done enough. In the first place, Aoki had not intended to let the green bird escape with him.
Hence, with Aoki's consolation and persuasion, the green bird's attitude gradually adjusted.
However, when she looked at Greenwood again, the look in her eyes was somewhat different.
Ever since they met on Dreamland Island, the green bird felt that she was stronger and more talented than others. Although she eventually followed Aoki out of Dreamland Island, she still looked at Aoki the same way she did on Dreamland Island.
Gu Hai was a rather intelligent person with average strength.
However, from today onward, the green bird completely extinguished that slight sense of superiority she had over Aoki.
Now, she realized that Aoki had only left Dreamland Island for a short while, but he had grown much stronger. He was even able to strike a deal with Reggie and Ace.
If he was given more time, what level could he reach?
The green bird found it hard to imagine.
For the first time since they left Dreamland, the Chinese Valentine's Day Bluebird suddenly felt that her strength was gradually weakening.
Furthermore, she had been unable to cross the threshold to the Heavenly King realm. Should she start training?
After comforting the Qixi Blue Bird, Aoki took it back.
Although she did not have a large-scale conflict with Gu Hai, the green bird still had to put in some effort to protect herself.
Fortunately, Aoki felt rather grateful to the green bird for this matter. After all, she was not his spirit. For her to fight for him for more than an hour was already a great help.
If Qixi's Blue Bird was unwilling, Aoki wouldn't force it. However, from now on, he and Qixi's Blue Bird would part ways.
Aoki still had a Dream Demon in his shadow. It could be of similar use. In fact, the Dream Demon's control was even stronger, able to delay Gu Hai.
However, the Dream Demon had not been training for long. It was already pretty good if it could bring out half of its strength.
Sitting on the back of the Desert Dragonfly, Aoki felt much more relaxed.
Ever since Aoki met Gu Jia in this life, Gu Hai had been a huge barrier in his heart.
Gu Hai and Gu Jia's growth in the future. Aoki had seen for himself how much they could grow. If he could deal with them earlier, Aoki would feel much less pressure.
Now, in the Rocket Team, apart from Regis who might take the initiative to take revenge on Aoki, the rest, including Lunda, might not even remember who Aoki was.
As a member of the Rocket Team, it was normal for him to not remember a small character like Aoki. Moreover, the Rocket Team was starting to shrink. As a member, he had many things to do.
Regis, on the other hand, wouldn't come looking for trouble with Greenwood before he recovered from his wounds. After all, almost all of the elves he had on Dreamland had been wiped out. Even with the support of his house, it would take him a long time to recover.
He could have used his family's methods to deal with Aoki, but he did not.
That meant that he was not satisfied and wanted to use his own hands to deal with Aoki. Therefore, it would take a long time.
Thinking about the matters and plans in his heart, Aoki sat on the back of the Desert Dragonfly and rushed towards Duskwater Town, hoping to find the materials for the "Soul of the Ocean" there.
...
On the other hand, in the Kanto region's Tokiwa City.
In the Rocket Team base under the Tokiwa Dojo, in Sakaki's office.
There were three people standing there. If Aoki was here, he would recognize all of them.
They were Sakaki, Kage, and Na Zi.
"He still went out?" Sakaki held a cigar in one hand and stroked the cat lying beside him with the other.
"Yes!" Kage said.
It had to be said that the leader of such a large organization, especially at such a crucial time in the Rocket Team, was able to remember such a small matter. It was enough to see how meticulous he was.
Sakaki nodded and continued, "Let's see if that little guy can survive. If he can, then he's worth nurturing. We're starting to shrink now, but we can't just throw such a genius to the Alliance."
Na Zi, who had always been more mischievous, didn't dare to do anything out of line in front of Sakaki. Even with the superpower she was proud of, she didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Sakaki.
This was because her superpower perception told her that there was a power in the leader's body that was more tyrannical than her superpower. Even if it couldn't be used like a superpower, it wasn't something she could deal with.
"I heard that he's doing well in Fengyuan. The Alliance recently held some kind of Mystery Competition, did he participate?" Sakaki asked.
"Yes."
"I don't have time to care about those old guys in the Alliance for now. The most important thing now is to research that elfin. As long as I get that elfin, it will be much easier to get this world.
As long as I have absolute power, all schemes are useless in front of power. Those old guys don't understand this. "Sakaki took a light puff of his cigarette, leaned back in his chair, and blended into the shadows.
"As long as that little guy can survive this time, give him some help. Don't let him think that after joining the Alliance, the Rocket Team isn't very important. Now, the Rocket Team needs to nurture him and let him climb up in the Alliance." Sakaki suddenly said to Aoki.
Hearing this, Kage's heart trembled, but he nodded respectfully and said, "Okay."
On the surface, Sakaki wanted to help Aoki, but there was a deeper meaning. That was, he hoped that Aoki wouldn't disappoint the Rocket Team. He didn't want to think that he could completely join the Alliance now that the Rocket Team was shrinking.
Sakaki didn't say it directly, but Kage believed that with Aoki's ability, he could understand the meaning behind his words.
However, as long as Aoki didn't betray the Rocket Team, even if he did something in the Alliance that was beneficial to himself, Sakaki wouldn't say much.
Sakaki judged a person's value mainly based on what they could bring to him. As for some insignificant losses, he didn't care.
Only with his strength, he didn't care about some small gains and losses.
"Na Zi, you should know what kind of sprite we are researching this time. You are the strongest person in the Rocket Team, and that sprite is also a sprite with superpowers. I hope you can provide some help to those scientists." Then, Sakaki told Na Zi about the matter.
Aoki was a relatively important chess piece, but compared to replicating a fantasy, it wasn't that important.
After all, this was related to the Rocket Team's future plan.
Sakaki also knew Na Zi's character. If he didn't say a few words in advance, he didn't know how Na Zi would play those scientists.
