Cough!
Loz coughed twice.
They interrupted their conversation.
"If you want to focus on developing the new brand Dragon Nest Ranch, the Alliance can provide all the assistance you need. Would you be willing to serve the Alliance?"
"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't need the alliance's help for the time being. Taking too big a step would be counterproductive." Bai Hong once again refused Loz's offer of help; the so-called help was nothing but a trap.
The World Championships do not stipulate that the champion must serve the league.
Are you really going to refuse?
Loz was already showing a little bit of a face.
This worried Dan Di.
Dan Di originally thought that Bai Hong would agree to the conditions offered by Luo Zi, but to his surprise, Bai Hong refused without even frowning or thinking. What great courage and confidence that was!
Please understand!
Bai Hong instantly turned serious.
In any case, we absolutely cannot lose in terms of momentum.
"As the strongest champion, shouldn't you serve the league?" Lorz once again used his status as the strongest champion to put pressure on them.
"That depends on what aspect of effectiveness you're referring to. Do you intend to imprison me underground as well?" Bai Hong's tone suddenly changed, filled with disdain.
He was not afraid of the other party's threats at all. While maintaining a tough attitude, he deliberately added with a cold face, "Do you also want to lock me up underground?" Then he looked at Dan Di meaningfully.
Lorz panicked immediately.
But it didn't show.
"What nonsense are you talking about? The Pokémon League is a recognized association; they wouldn't lock people up underground."
"So you're saying that anything except people can be locked up underground?" Bai Hong is really bold, daring to tease Luo Zi.
"you……"
Loz was speechless.
He was now certain that the person in front of him must know something, otherwise he wouldn't have said such a thing.
Even the Pill Emperor doesn't know how Bai Hong found out that he imprisoned Wuji Tai in the underground of Quan Guan City.
"I advise you not to waste your time." Bai Hong's unspoken message was nothing more than: you'd better not use your status as the strongest champion to intimidate me, or I will expose your secret to the public.
Loz had a stern face.
There wasn't a trace of a smile on his face.
Before this, he had never met such a meticulous person who not only refused to recruit him to his face but also gave him a warning.
"Since you're unwilling, I won't force you. If the alliance needs your help in the future, please lend a hand!" After careful consideration, he could only say this through gritted teeth.
"Huh? I thought you were going to strip me of my title as the strongest champion." Bai Hong couldn't help but smile.
"You're joking. How could we possibly have the right to strip you of your title as the strongest champion? The World Championships are a formal, large-scale event." Lorz's plan had failed, and he still had to force a smile.
At this moment, he felt incredibly frustrated, but he couldn't show it in front of the Pill Emperor, so he had to keep up the act.
Chapter 200 Flashing Iron Dumbbells
Impressive!
Dan Di's eyes widened.
He couldn't help but admire it in his heart.
Normally, he would never dare to speak to Lorz like that. Even if they became friends, they would at most be less formal, after all, Lorz's status was what it was, and he was used to being high and mighty.
The status of the strongest champion is naturally not bad. Whether outside or in the Galar Pokémon League, they have extremely high prestige.
But since the other party had helped me, I inevitably faced many unavoidable situations where I couldn't do what I wanted as I pleased and had to be mindful of everything.
him at the moment.
I envy Bai Hong immensely.
"Since you don't intend to strip me of my title as the strongest champion, then I won't bother you any longer." Bai Hong said without any ambiguity.
"and many more!"
Loz was still not giving up.
They still want to recruit.
"Ok?"
"You haven't answered yet."
"Answer what?"
"If the league ever needs your help in the future, please lend a hand! That's all I ask. Do you agree?" How could Loz not know how strong the strongest champion was?
"We'll see how things go then. I can't give you an answer right now." Bai Hong smiled politely, which was tactful enough.
"How am I supposed to explain this to the higher-ups at the Galar Pokémon League?" Rose tried his best to suppress his anger.
"That's your business."
Bai Hongcai didn't care about these things.
Back when I first won the title of strongest champion, I had some reservations, but now I have none at all. At worst, I can give up being the strongest champion and happily return to Dragon Valley Ranch to live a leisurely and comfortable life.
Even the strongest champion is subject to certain people. Let whoever wants to be the champion be the champion. Anyway, he won't tolerate this. Once he understands this, there's nothing to be afraid of.
"By the way, don't mess with me!"
The moment I stepped out the door.
Bai Hong suddenly increased his aura.
His eyes were incredibly cold.
no doubt.
This statement is a warning.
He warned Loz not to provoke him.
"Is he really Bai Hong?"
Although Lorz's expression didn't change much, a chill ran down his spine. This was no illusion; the guy's eyes had suddenly changed.
"President Lotz, why would you ask that?" Dan Di didn't know how to respond, so he simply answered truthfully, "He is Bai Hong, of course. If there's nothing else, then I'll take my leave!"
He was quite quick.
Before Lorz could speak...
They have already left.
That was so embarrassing.
I've never felt this awkward before.
"Wait for me!"
Dan Di caught up with Bai Hong.
A hint of appreciation appeared in his eyes.
"Why did you come out so quickly? Didn't you catch up with Loz?" Bai Hong was always good at teasing, and seemed to be in a good mood.
"Well, we've finished talking. How about we go have a meal together?" Dan Di thought he had nothing to do today, so he might as well spend more time with Bai Hong. He genuinely wanted to make friends with Bai Hong.
Bai Hong did not refuse.
Just left the Palace Arena.
Looking up, you can see the wilderness and the Qibana.
It turns out they hadn't left; they had been waiting outside for quite a while. Since Morikawa had other plans, he left first.
Huang Pu's strength is unknown, but he is quite intelligent. Leaving now would mean missing a good opportunity to make friends with other important figures.
In his eyes, even though Dan Di is no longer the strongest champion, he still has a certain degree of fame and influence. If he can befriend him, he can gain more connections in the future.
Furthermore, Chibana is the Gym Leader of Motostoke City. He is very enthusiastic about fashion trends and social media, and his popularity is also quite good. Why not take this opportunity to get to know him and add him as a friend?
At Dan Di's recommendation.
They went to a restaurant for a meal.
The conversation went very smoothly and pleasantly.
"By the way, when you were talking to Mr. Loz, why did you suddenly mention that you also want to lock me up underground?" Dan Di had been looking for an opportunity to speak, and the word "also" caught his attention.
For some reason, he felt there was something he didn't know about, otherwise Lorz wouldn't have reacted so strongly.
"I'm talking nonsense."
Bai Hong casually picked up some food.
He didn't look up at Emperor Dan.
"really?"
Dan Di clearly did not believe it.
There must be something hidden here.
When faced with Loz's subsequent denial, Bai Hong added, "Anyone except people can be locked up underground." The sarcasm was so obvious that anyone who wasn't a fool could understand it.
"Even if I told you now, you wouldn't believe me." Bai Hong had no intention of telling Dan Di at all.
"Who says I don't believe it?"
Dan's curiosity was bursting.
I feel restless.
"You'll know when that time comes." Considering that Lorz might target him next, he needed to use this secret to blackmail Lorz.
