I'm not a Pokémon succubus.

"Hahahahaha, the news of the 'Gene Wedge' has leaked. Even though you knew Team Plasma's goal was to attack Shuanglong City, you still refused to stay away from here. Gym Master Shaka, your arrogance is the main reason for your failure and the complete defeat of the Unova Alliance!"

"Oh?"

Xia Ka crossed his arms over his chest, straightened his back, and his muscular body was very oppressive.

"Then I want to know how you are going to take the 'Gene Wedge' from me?"

"What a stubborn old man..."

Vio snorted disdainfully and said, "While you were fighting your dragon, the Dark Trinity had already sneaked into your Double Dragon Gym."

"You didn't bring the 'Gene Wedge' with you. If I'm not mistaken, then you hid the 'Gene Wedge' in the gym."

As he spoke, Vio looked towards the Ssangyong Gym in the distance.

The gym was covered with a layer of solid ice, and Shaka could no longer enter.

However, the 'Dark Trinity' used their ninjutsu to move in and out of the blockade of solid ice with ease.

"They should have found it by now!"

Xia Ka hesitated to speak.

"Ah."

Vio was still talking.

"Shaka, you lose..."

He never doubted the possibility that the Dark Trinity would fail.

Through surprise attacks and delays, they have bought enough time for the Dark Trinity to search for the Genetic Wedge outside.

What's more, they are professional match.

Ninjas are not only good at hiding themselves, but also at finding hidden things.

No matter how well Shaka hid the 'Gene Wedge', it could not be hidden from the eyes of the 'Dark Trinity' - that's what Akromah and Vio thought.

"Oh......"

Xia Ka looked at the frozen Ssangyong Gym thoughtfully with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Those three ninjas went to the Shuanglong Gym. That's really..."

Xia Ka thought of the one guarding the Shuanglong Gym, and he actually felt a little pity for the 'Dark Trinity' in his heart.

Vio: "?"

......

Inside the Shuanglong Gym, it was pitch black.

Something seemed to be floating between the shadows.

The scarlet light flickered, like a monster's eyes peeking at the outside world from the darkness.

The 'Dark Trinity' possesses the magical ability to hide in the shadows and move freely, which they call Ninjutsu.

Therefore, whether it is action, sneak attack, or obtaining intelligence, the 'Dark Trinity' can do it with ease.

They are Kuiqisi's most capable subordinates.

This time, the task of sneaking into the Shuanglong Gym and searching for the 'Gene Wedge' naturally fell on them.

but......

"Who is where!"

Suddenly, the floating shadows froze, and the leader of the Dark Trinity shouted a question towards a certain place in the hall of the Ssangyong Gym.

"Oh?"

A mocking voice came from the darkness.

"Isn't it funny that an uninvited guest would question the host in such a tone?"

Moonlight shone into the hall through the ice outside the Ssangyong Gym.

Following the faint light, the three ninjas hiding in the shadows looked in the direction where someone responded.

A thin figure stood leaning against the wall...

He crossed his arms over his chest, his upper body covered by shadows, revealing his lower body in ninja attire, with a red scarf hanging down his back.

“It’s really unbearable.”

As the man spoke, he slightly moved his wrist, which was covered with protective gear.

"What kind of fame-seeking person dares to call himself a ninja..."

As he spoke, his voice turned cold.

Among the shadows, the Dark Trinity seemed inexplicably nervous because of his words, and they all took up fighting stances in unison.

"Look at me, I'm going to clean up the name of ninja today."

The man said in a cold voice, turned around, and took out the katana that had been hidden on the other side of his waist.

"Shh!"

A cold light flashed, and three shurikens flew out from between the shadows, forming a tricky flight trajectory that was difficult to dodge or avoid.

"Crack!"

Aju drew his sword and slashed it, the katana gleaming silver under the moonlight, easily knocking down the three shurikens thrown by the 'Dark Trinity'.

"Ah......"

Looking at the shuriken falling to the ground, Aju sneered, his eyes even more disdainful.

"It's easy to learn some basic skills and fool outsiders and those who don't know much about the subject, but if you want to perform in front of me, you're really showing off your skills in front of an amateur."

Aju shook his head.

He finally understood.

The 'Dark Trinity' were "fake ninjas" who relied solely on their special abilities to survive. If compared to the skills of real ninjas, the skills of these three were not as good as his daughter's.

disappointment......

What followed was endless anger.

Aju couldn't accept that these three guys were cheating people outside under the name of ninjas.

"Akira, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Johto..."

At this time, the 'Dark Trinity' walked out from the shadows. They also saw Aju's appearance clearly, so they called out his name in unison.

The three ninjas looked grim—even though they were wearing black masks.

"I didn't expect you to be guarding the 'Gene Wedge'. The leader miscalculated."

Originally, Team Plasma was confident that the United Alliance did not have enough high-level combat forces stationed in Shuanglong City, so they dared to attack here so brazenly.

Shuanglong City is guarded by only Shaka, who is at the level of a gym leader. If Vio and the "Dark Trinity" are dispatched, it will be easy for them to get the "Gene Wedge".

did not expect......

"The United Alliance actually asked for one of the Four Heavenly Kings from other regions."

"You are wrong."

Ah Ju scoffed and said, "I'm not guarding the 'Gene Wedge'. I'm just waiting for you three."

"what?"

The Dark Trinity was startled, and a bad feeling suddenly arose in his heart.

"Do you really think your wishful thinking is a good one?"

Ah Ju's eyes were filled with sarcasm as he said, "From the very beginning, we knew about your plan. We knew every move you made."

"Look outside..."

Ah Ju looked out the window and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, our support has already suppressed your people..."

"Besides, that 'Gene Wedge' is no longer in Shaka's hands!"

After saying that, Aju and the others didn't wait for the 'Dark Trinity' to react, and swung their swords at the three of them.

The three ninjas reacted quickly. After they understood what Aju meant, they jumped back suddenly.

“Sizzle—!!”

A shrill sound rang out from the dark space.

Aju's sword cut open the clothes of the three ninjas on their abdomens, leaving a shallow wound on each of their bodies, and blood gushed out.

"hateful!"

The three ninjas threw out three Poké Balls at the same time, and three Slash Commanders appeared in front of Aju brandishing steel swords, blocking his pursuit.

Then, the Dark Trinity retreated into the shadows again.

"hateful......"

The three ninjas exchanged glances in the shadows, and in an instant, the three people, like conjoined twins, reached a consensus and prepared to retreat.

Aju has made it very clear.

The plans of Team Plasma, Akroma and Quichis, which they thought were perfect, had actually been exposed to the United Alliance long ago.

Today, the United Alliance, the International Police, and the investigators must have taken sufficient countermeasures for the surprise attack that Team Plasma has been planning for a long time.

The 'Gene Wedge' isn't in the Double Dragon Gym either...

A crushing defeat.

It was a complete failure!

The Dark Trinity knew that the Plasma Team's ragtag troops outside could not possibly defeat the regular troops that had been prepared for a long time.

Moreover, since there is an Aju, there must be other high-end combat forces from the alliance in Shuanglong City, and Vio is in great danger.

There was absolutely no way the three of them could defeat Aju, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Johto region...whether it was in ninjutsu or Pokémon battles.

The 'Gene Wedge' that Akromah and Kuichis were targeting was now being moved to an unknown place.

It’s rotten!

What's the point of this?

If you don't run now, will Aju kill the three of you?

This guy used to be on the Rockets, and he doesn't follow the same moral principles as normal league members!

"Want to run?"

Looking at the wriggling black shadow, Aju sneered.

Facing the three slashing commanders coming towards him, he calmly threw a shuriken.

The shuriken was dodged by Commander Chop, but they didn't see that there was a Poké Ball stuck in the middle of the shuriken...

"Cuck!"

A Toxicropod jumped out of the Poké Ball and landed right behind them, with fighting-attribute energy covering its hands.

Cross split!

"commander!"

The hand knife fell, and a Slash Commander died on the spot. The four times restraint was still too heavy for such a fragile Pokémon.

The Dark Trinity's eyes nearly popped out of their heads, and they were even more grateful that the three of them had chosen to retreat without hesitation.

However......

"Goo."

A strange sound came into my ears.

The ground beneath the shadows had become soft without anyone noticing...

The color of the walls faded, replaced by a sticky purple.

A face appeared in front of the Dark Trinity, grinning and stretching out two large hands.
