HPDBC In Chapter 511, only one person didn't receive Li Luochen's gift. Guess who it was?

"Why don't you tell me your plans first?"
Daigo turned his gaze to Crimson Pine and Archie, his tone calm yet serious: "Our Hoenn League's original plan was to launch a rocket to send the explosive device into space and directly shatter the meteorite."
He paused, then lightly tapped the touchpad, and several screenshots of test flight videos popped up on the screen.
Each segment begins with a rocket launch and ends with a blinding explosion in mid-air.
"Just as you've seen," Daigo frowned slightly, "every time the rocket reaches a certain altitude during a test flight, it's shattered in mid-air by an unknown force. It's not a malfunction, it's not the weather; something is actively intercepting it."
There was a moment of silence in the conference room.
Shui Wutong stared at the flames on the screen, her gaze darkening.
Chi Yansong leaned forward slightly, his fingers resting on his chin, the afterglow of the video recording reflected on his glasses.
"An unknown power?" Crimson Pine repeated in a low voice, his tone carrying a hint of intrigue.
"Yes." Daigo nodded.
"So, I'd like to ask what your method is." Daigo leaned back in his chair, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the Crimson Flame Pine and the Water Archie.
The situation is precarious, and the alliance's own plans have repeatedly failed. Perhaps it would be better to listen to the ideas of these two extremists.
They might even be able to help each other out.
Crimson Pine waved his hand: "It's nothing. My idea is to control Groudon and use its power to shatter the meteor."
"I want to control Kyogre."
Shui Wutong crossed her arms and, unusually, didn't argue with Chi Yansong. Her tone even carried a hint of tacit understanding.
There was a moment of silence in the conference room.
Genji's brows furrowed into a tight knot.
Furong blinked, as if to make sure she hadn't misheard.
Huayue scoffed and muttered under her breath, "Controlling legendary Pokémon from ancient times? You make it sound like you're walking a dog."
Crimson Pine glanced at Flower Moon, ignored him, and continued, "Groudon's Precipice Sword is incredibly powerful and unstoppable."
"If we can get it to fire at the meteorite, the problem will be solved."
"The same goes for Kyogre's Root Waves," Archie rarely chimed in, "but the prerequisite is that we have to find them first."
Daigo remained silent for a long while before slowly speaking, "So you mean... find Groudon and Kyogre first, and then use them to attack the meteor?"
Both the Crimson Flame Pine and the Water Wutong nodded at the same time.
Daigo rubbed his temples.
Good grief, this method is even less reliable than the league's rocket plan.
"Tch, don't think I don't know what you're thinking." Archie curled her lip, crossed her legs and swung them, her tone full of sarcasm. "If it weren't for the Hoenn League always hindering our grand plan, I might have found Kyogre long ago."
For once, Crimson Pine didn't refute him, but simply adjusted his glasses and added casually, "Groudon too."
Genji's temple throbbed, while Kagetsu couldn't help but sneer, "Help you obstruct your grand plan? Back then, one of you wanted to expand the land, and the other wanted to expand the ocean, almost splitting Hoenn in two!"
"If we obstruct you, it's called eliminating a scourge for the people."
"That was before," Archie said matter-of-factly. "Now there's a meteorite crisis, isn't there? You were the ones who called us here, and now you're the ones making sarcastic remarks. What exactly does the Hoenn Alliance want?"
The tension in the meeting room intensified.
Daigo took a deep breath, raised his hand and pressed it down, signaling everyone to calm down.
"Alright, let's not dwell on the past." His tone remained calm, but his gaze was more serious than before. "The question now is, even if we let you search freely, are you confident you can find Groudon and Kyogre before the meteor falls?"
"I can." Shui Wutong leaned back in her chair, a smile playing on her lips, as confident as if she had eaten breakfast that day.
"How could you?" Chi Yansong frowned, turned his head to look at him, and a cold light flashed on his glasses.
"Oh."
Shui Wutong took out her phone from her pocket, swiped it a couple of times on the screen, then slammed it on the table and pushed it in front of everyone: "My nephew took a picture of a different color Kyogre for me."
"Even if they're not from Hoenn, it's fine."
Everyone crowded around to take a look, and sure enough, there was a picture of Kyogre on the screen.
It wasn't the ordinary Kyogre that slumbers in the ocean trenches of the Hoenn region, but a shiny pinkish-purple creature floating above an unfamiliar sea, surrounded by churning rain clouds, exuding an imposing aura.
The meeting room was silent for a full three seconds.
Crimson Pine asked, "Could it be Luo Chen?"
"right."
Shui Wutong put away her phone, her smile carrying a deeper meaning.
"If it's Li Luochen, then yes, it's certainly possible."
When Li Luochen was mentioned, Daigo's mood visibly improved, and a smile even appeared on his lips: "As expected of Luochen, he was the one who gave me the gem from Diancie."
"I didn't expect that he was the one who told you about this news about Kyogre."
"Oh?" Shui Wutong raised an eyebrow and leaned forward slightly. "I've been wanting to ask this before, are you very familiar with my nephew?"
"Yes." Daigo nodded. "We met on a forum, became friends while talking about minerals, and are now good buddies."
Water Archie exclaimed "Whoa!" and looked at Daigo with a different expression, one that seemed to say, "I see."
Crimson Pine remained expressionless, but its ears twitched slightly.
Genji rubbed his temples, feeling that his old bones were a bit out of touch with the social networks of young people.
Furong chuckled and interjected, "So we're relying on Li Luochen's connections to solve this problem?"
Daigo thought for a moment and nodded seriously: "You could say that."
"Hey, four-eyed guy." Archie turned to Red Pine, beaming with pride, "I have a picture of Kyogre, Steven has Diancie's jewel, what did your nephew give you?"
"..."
The crimson pine tree remained silent.
it is more than words.
"Hahahahaha!"
Shui Wutong's smile gradually became more unrestrained.
Genji, Fuyou, Kagetsu, Bonnie, Michael, and even Daigo couldn't help but glance at Crimson Pine.
Chi Yansong remained expressionless, but several images flashed rapidly through his mind.
It seems there really isn't?
Not only did he not post it, he also posted the picture of the Fire Goose.
hiss......
Chi Yansong slowly removed her glasses, gently wiping the lenses with the corner of her clothes, as if wiping away her own subtle emotions: "I don't need these."
Shui Wutong finally couldn't hold back and burst out laughing: "Hahahaha! Mo Haima, if you don't have it, you don't need these!"
The meeting room was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
