"Rayming and Meowth, step back to the side. This is a battle between Zubat and Aron," Qingwu said to Rayming and Meowth. In his previous life, Qingwu also had an Arbok, which was of green quality, and it was also Qingwu's main Pokémon.

So, Qingwu was very familiar with Arbok's behavior. When Arbok arched its body, flicked its tongue, and slithered left and right, it was preparing to attack.

Arbok's attack power was very strong, and it could learn Glare + Gunk Shot, and also learn moves like Iron Tail and Dig.

It was basically a test taker's nightmare. Qingwu was not afraid of Arbok at this time. In Qingwu's bracelet, there was also advanced paralysis spray made from paralyzing berries, which could paralyze Arbok for three days and three nights.

Both Arbok were awakened from their slumber, their eyes bloodshot.

"Aron, left side, 45-degree angle, use Rock Tomb."

"Zubat, you use Air Cutter towards the 60-degree angle direction on the right side." Qingwu directly predicted Arbok's movements.

Sure enough, one Arbok was topped by a giant rock as it moved. The other Arbok was slashed by Air Cutter, bleeding profusely.

"Aron, be careful not to make direct contact with Arbok." Although Aron is a Steel-type Pokémon, Arbok's Acid still causes damage to Aron.

Arbok, repeatedly blocked, became even more enraged. Suddenly, the pattern on Arbok's belly changed directly.

"Death Makeup!!!" Qingwu observed that Arbok used this move and was instantly greatly alarmed.

"Only Arbok with outstanding talent can use Death Makeup. Where did these two Arbok come from?"

Indeed, after changing its pattern, Arbok's speed suddenly increased significantly. Zubat, however, avoided Arbok's attack using Tailwind.

But Aron was originally a Pokémon known for its defense, and Arbok quickly reached Aron, opening its mouth at Aron. Arbok bit Aron.

"Snap." Arbok's four fangs simultaneously broke. Qingwu seemed to see a classic scene reenacted.

It seemed a Seviper attacked Aron like this before, and its fangs also broke completely.

An Arbok without fangs is like a tiger without teeth. Some of Arbok's Poison-type moves can only be released through its fangs, and Arbok's fangs take at least three days to regrow.

The pained Arbok became even more enraged. Its tail turned a silvery color and swept towards Aron with a Steel Tail attack. To Qingwu's surprise, Aron leaped high into the air, directly avoiding the Iron Tail attack.

"Strange, Aron's speed has increased quite a bit," Qingwu said, stroking his chin while watching the battle.

Qingwu noticed that there were several small rocks protruding from Aron's feet.

"So that's it," Qingwu muttered to himself. Aron used Rock Tomb on the ground, and with the impact of Rock Tomb, Aron was able to leap high.

The leaping Aron was grabbed by Zubat's slender legs. Zubat, holding a 60kg Aron, was as effortless as holding a piece of paper. Zubat bomber plane, activated.

Arbok, which failed to hit Aron, was extremely frustrated. Arbok's eyes then fixed on Qingwu.

"Hiss (Go to hell)." Arbok in its accelerated state walked with a serpentine gait, moving extremely fast. It opened its fanged maw, ready to swallow Qingwu whole.

Just then, a heavy object fell from the sky, directly smashing Arbok onto the ground. Aron rubbed its head, and in a daze, it got off Arbok.

It turned out that after seeing Qingwu in danger, Aron, in a moment of desperation, had Zubat drop him on Arbok's head. Under the effect of gravity and weight, Arbok suffered a heavy blow, collapsing to the ground and falling unconscious.

"Go, Poké Ball." Qingwu threw a Poké Ball. Qingwu was quite interested in Arbok's Death Makeup. Moreover, Arbok's level wasn't low. This time, Qingwu had used a tricky method to defeat Arbok.

"Not good, the other Arbok wants to run," Rayming exclaimed.

"It can't run," Qingwu said calmly. Arbok suddenly fell headfirst to the ground. Countless bolts of lightning emanated from Arbok's body. Arbok had fallen into a state of paralysis.

"It seems the effect of the paralyzing berry is quite good. Go, Poké Ball." Qingwu threw another Poké Ball, capturing this Arbok that could use Death Makeup.

"I need to go back and research this," Qingwu said calmly, holding the two Poké Balls. Rayming watched the entire process of Qingwu capturing Arbok and couldn't help but marvel at Qingwu's strength. Qingwu actually saw a hint of admiration in Rayming's eyes.

Pokémon training, Pokémon breeding, Pokémon potion making. Which of these didn't require decades of immersion to learn? Qingwu was simply too amazing.

"Alright, now for the unboxing part." Qingwu looked at the iron box on the ground. It was a very ordinary iron box, but it was probably made of alloy, which was why it hadn't rusted despite being buried for so long. The iron box had a delicate copper lock, but Qingwu estimated that he couldn't open it himself.

"Aron, use Metal Claw." Since he couldn't open it himself, he would borrow the power of his Pokémon. Aron raised its claw, and a white light shone on it. With a snap, the copper lock broke into two halves. Qingwu directly opened the box.

"These are TM discs." Inside the box were two discs and a stone glowing with flames. Qingwu checked. This TM disc was well-preserved. There was also a label on the TM disc, which read Ice Punch and Fire Punch. "I didn't expect it to be this TM disc."

Qingwu had searched for this TM disc at the exchange office before, but the answer he got was that there was no stock left. It had to be said that Focus Punch was very popular.

"There is also a high-quality Fire Stone. If I have a Fire-type Pokémon, I can give it to the Fire-type Pokémon to absorb.

This wave is not a loss." Fire Stones were expensive on the black market. The lowest quality Fire Stone started at 10,000 points, let alone a high-quality Fire Stone. The Fire Stone in Qingwu's hand, Qingwu estimated, could be exchanged for about 200,000 points, but only a fool would exchange a Fire Stone for points.

Besides earning points through trials, exchanging items for points was also a relatively common method in Team Rocket. Also, completing Team Rocket's bounty missions could also earn some points. Qingwu carefully examined the Fire Stone and found that its craftsmanship was very rough, as if it had been chipped off a mineral vein.
