Pokémon: Shadow of the Dawn
Chapter 394 Ransom
Kikuko came a long way to bring her grandson to this old man, but this old man didn't even say hello to her first!
Abbott glanced at Kikuko after hearing this, his tone mixed with dissatisfaction:
"Kikuko, how did you four kings do it? It turned out that a Pokémon doctor of unknown origin killed the pirates and helped Darko... I said before that if Little Darko got hurt even a hair..."
"What can you do! Huh?"
Kikuko banged her cane hard, her voice filled with anger.
Abbott wanted to say something, but stopped himself. He snorted coldly, still ignoring Kikuko, and pulled Dakdo towards the long table at the back.
After sitting down, Abbott instantly put on a kind smile:
"Little Duck, if you have any problem, tell me. Did those pirates use force against you? I will ask the Four Heavenly Kings of Kanto to wipe out the remaining pirates..."
"Clear up!" Kikuko walked slowly with a look of disdain on her face, "As soon as I got on the boat, the Sinnoh Alliance sent a message, saying that no one should die. In the Sinnoh waters, the Four Heavenly Kings of Kanto are useless!"
Abbott's face darkened, but he said nothing.
The best he can do now is to forcibly mobilize the Four Heavenly Kings. After all, Kanto doesn’t even have a champion right now.
However, these are just overt military forces. If it doesn't work, some black forces can be sent to Sinnoh to solve the problem. Even if the Sinnoh Alliance knows, there is nothing they can do.
At this moment, Dakoto stammered and said:
"Grandpa, I'm fine..."
"Nothing? How is this possible..."
Abbott's face was full of disbelief, and he felt a little distressed when he saw Dakodo's appearance.
His grandson has always been very lively and active. How come he became like this after a cruise?
"Good grandson, are you okay? Let grandpa take a look..."
Abbott quickly lifted up Dakodo's sleeves, and after seeing that there were no bruises, he looked at Dakodo's face carefully, and then noticed that there seemed to be something missing from Dakodo's body.
"Where's the pendant around your neck...the one your grandfather gave you?"
Abbott's voice was a little distorted.
When Dakoto heard the word "pendant", his eyes regained some clarity and he explained, "I gave it away."
"Send it away!"
Abbot opened his mouth, wanting to scold but unable to do so. He felt so angry that he could not vent it, so he could only sigh bitterly:
"Okay, that's a great send!"
That's the key stone! His heart seemed to be bleeding.
A key stone that he and that adult had begged for a long time!
As long as you collect some more evolution stones and some Pokémon, you can complete the divine evolution!
Abbott took two breaths and asked:
"Little Darko, who did you give it to? Did you give it to that Pokémon doctor?"
"Ah."
Dakota nodded.
"Sigh..." Abbott clenched his fist to his chin and sighed again, but there was nothing he could do.
After all, that Pokémon professor was indeed the only one who helped little Darko, so just give it to him. Just give it to him...that's the Key Stone!
Abbott hit his head, not knowing what to say.
But after all, he was old and had experienced everything. He quickly put the matter aside and turned to ask about the specific details of Dakdo's capture.
At this moment, Kikuko tapped the floor with her cane and interrupted:
"Vice President, I have something else to do!"
"you?"
Abbott frowned.
After a while.
"What did you say? The pirates extorted 1 billion Alliance coins? You helped pay the ransom?"
Abbott's voice could almost penetrate the ceiling, and his face was full of disbelief.
"Yeah..." Kikuko pretended to be old and frail, and said in a hoarse voice: "For your grandson, I even lost the money for my coffin! Tell me, should the alliance reimburse me for this?"
"This..." Abbott hesitated.
As the vice president of the alliance, he made the Four Heavenly Kings transfer order with the president's tacit approval. President Damaranch did have a budget, but it was only 500 million.
Where does this ten billion come from?
And how dare a few pirates ask for so much? There should be a ransom, but the number is obviously exaggerated. It is probably inflated by Kikuko in order to make money.
Isn't this a bit too much money?
Kikuko saw his doubts and continued to persuade him:
"I know what Damaranch is planning. We can take this opportunity to ask Sinnoh for half of the money. If Sinnoh gives us 500 million, won't that be enough?"
"Ask Sinnoh?" Abbott was a little surprised. He felt that this seemed to be a good idea, but in reality he shook his head repeatedly: "But the question is, what is the reason..."
"Many of the tourists on the boat are from Sinnoh, and this incident was originally a problem in the southern waters of Sinnoh, so they should be held accountable."
Kikuko smiled sinisterly and said:
"This is a legitimate reason to target the Sinnoh Alliance's top brass. They must pay this money! Damaranch will definitely agree."
"it is good......"
Abbott hesitated for a few moments and immediately agreed.
Seeing this, Kikuko had a clue and warned:
"The sooner the better, otherwise there will be no chance after the incident. It's best to prepare the documents and send them over today. I'll wait for your news."
After Aibut nodded, Kikuko also left quickly.
"bump!"
The door closed, and Abbott comforted Dakdo for a while, then he did not hesitate to start drafting the document. After the document was written, he picked up the phone and dialed, and the call was quickly connected:
"Hello, is this President Damaranch? I have an important matter to report..."
...
Two hours later.
In the northern part of the Sinnoh region, at the end of the Crown Mountains, the Sinnoh Alliance.
In a huge conference room on the top floor of the towering alliance building, several middle-aged men in different attire sat silently around the conference table.
I don't know how much time passed. The long-haired man with a mustache sitting in the main seat answered the ringing phone and hung up angrily.
"This is too much!" he roared.
The rest of the people cast their eyes over.
A fat woman with heavy makeup asked first: "Lord George, what are the orders from Guandu?"
George, who was sitting at the head of the group, also let out a deep sigh of anger and shouted:
"Kanto...Damaranchi is asking us for a ransom of 2 billion Alliance coins!"
"Two, two billion?" The fat woman half covered her mouth with her radish-shaped fingers, obviously very surprised: "The General Alliance has gone crazy!"
The total amount of money they make in Sinnoh in a year is only about 10 billion, and they can take away one-fifth of it in one go!
The expenses are so huge, who can afford it?
The rest of the people were not surprised by the amount. A man with a flat head and square face asked:
"Ransom? What ransom do they want from us?"
"It was the pirates who hijacked the passengers on the Veil!" George pounded the table and yelled, "They used the ransom to redeem those passengers!"
