"Somehow, I feel easy to manipulate space. It is not like I can do it easily right now, but I have only been training on it for 2 weeks now and I have gotten some good results.", said Alakazam.

Most of them were minor improvements but Axel knew that they would make a major difference in the battle. The thing that shocked him was the modification of the move \'Teleport\'.
With the new upgrade, Alakazam could now teleport at a distance of 500k miles. It could finally cross cities with a single teleport. 500k miles was not a small distance. Axel was happy that it was finally able to do it in king rank while Red and Oak had said that their Alakazam could only do it in champion rank.
However, there were a lot of restrictions. First of all, it had to place a mark on the place that it wanted to teleport. Secondly, the move was very slow and could not be used in battle. It would also consume a huge amount of stamina and Alakazam could only do it one time and had to rest for some time to use it again.
Even with all those restrictions, it was still a powerful move. Axel now didn\'t have to travel by plane. He could do it with his Alakazam.
"How were you able to think of such a move?", asked Axel. He was curious to know.
"You said that you wanted me to teleport long distance. You have also told me the story of a guy called Minato who could do it in an instant. I just took some suggestions from the story and worked on it.
That was when I felt that I could do it much more easily than \'Elemental manipulation\' and \'Greater Telekinesis\'. That is why I want to learn space element."
Alakazam had come a long way with telekinesis. \'Elemental manipulation\' was also a form of telekinesis. So, it didn\'t want to change its path drastically. But it also wanted to learn the space element of psychic type.
"Light, you should already know that, it takes a lot of time for a Pokemon to even master one direction but you are saying to master 2 of them. It would take a lot of time and you have to be very patient with it. Are you ready for all the hurdles that you will face?", asked Axel.
"Yes, I am ready for it."
"Good, I like this determination of yours.", said Axel.
He then looked at the new move that Alakazam had learned.
---
Puppetry: The user can control the movements of another Pokemon or human. The opposing party has to agree to the control.

It was a simple explanation but it opened a realm of infinite possibilities. Telekinesis could be used in various ways. It could be used to manipulate objects. This telekinesis is in a normal sense. However, it could also be used to manipulate energy. This was called Psychokinesis. It could also be used to manipulate machines and technology which was called \'Technopathy\'.
Alakazam was pursuing Psychokinesis, the act of manipulating energy. This was a higher form of Telekinesis. Even moves like \'Elemental manipulation\' and \'Greater Telekinesis\' were a part of manipulating energy.
Axel believed that \'Puppetry\' was a higher form of manipulating energy.
"I am shocked about your new move.", said Axel.
"Really? It was just me messing around. It could not do anything right now and cannot be used in battle.", remarked Alakazam.
This could only be used when the opposing party agrees to be manipulated and even if the party did agree to it, Alakazam could not manipulate it better than the other party. It could not even be manipulated as per the normal standard.
For example, if Alakazam took over Charizard and it used as a puppet, then it could not manipulate it to send out a better \'Flamethrower\' than Charizard. So, Alakazam was right about it but..
"No, you don\'t understand. This is a very high level of possibilities. If it is modified well, then you can manipulate the other party more effectively. It could also evolve into a reanimation technique."
"Reanimation?"
"The act of manipulating multiple dead entities to do your bidding.", said Axel.
"Really? I can do that?"
"Why could you not do it? Of course you could but you need a lot of training to do it."
"I will do it. Don\'t worry about it.", said Alakazam with an excited face. It was really excited and curious about the possibilities that Axel spoke.
Of course, the power of reanimation would not be as powerful as those used in the 4th Ninja War of Naruto world. Alakazam could not manipulate the souls. It could only manipulate energies. However, this would be a significant upgrade on its power in tide battles.
###
All of them went to the hotel and gathered. Krishna was especially interested in the powers and moves of Beedrill and Alakazam.
When he heard about the \'Resolve\' of Beedrill, he was stupefied.
"I just cannot believe that such a thing is possible. Your Pokemons have also modified a lot of moves to their advantage. This is really great. Tell me about Light. I want to know what you have thought about it.", said Krishna.
Even though he had taken Krishna to his team, he felt a bit awkward when Krishna started to ask such personal questions. Yet he knew that Krishna was not greedy or had any other intentions. He was just purely curious. He could understand why others didn\'t believe him in the past.
So, Axel went on to say about the future training plans of Alakazam. Krishna also corrected and modified some of Axel\'s plans which made him very happy. At least there was someone who dreamed like him.
###
Axel had already called the lieutenants of the mercenary team for the discussion. There were a lot of things that needed to be addressed in the meeting. Axel also had to introduce Krishna to the team.
The team was going to reach here after a few hours and Axel and Krishna were busy talking about wild theories which didn\'t even make any sense to others.
Finally, all of them arrived. There were 10 of them. Harry, Sam, Tory, Dory, Dorton, Mary, Kane, Alon, Ashmita and Mia. These were the lieutenants of the team.
Axel had to give proper designation to all of them. Not all of them were equal and everyone had different functions.
"Ashmita, what is happening to our new land? Give me all the details.", said Axel.
"Sir, we have bought a big land on the side of Vermilion city. The land was not expensive as it was empty. It bought it with 1 billion Poke dollars. The land covers around 1000 sq. km. and also has a room for expansion."
"That is good. What happened to the headquarters and living quarters for the team members?", asked Axel.
"Sir, we have been making plans for the headquarters and getting ideas from the architect but it looks like it would take some time. We need to know what we want to have inside the headquarters and making it would take some time.
Regarding the living quarters, we are setting up tents and it is still in process. It would take some time but will be completed before the deadline."
