"uncertain!"
Feng Lu shook her head.
"Natsuki's Blacksmith is the most overpowered Pokémon I've ever seen. Even Heracross might not be able to surpass her in strength. And look at the eyes of Natsuki and Blacksmith!"
With Feng Lu's prompting, Xiao Yao and Zi finally noticed the burning look in Xia Mu's eyes beneath his solemn expression.
"This is"
"Xia Mu and the skilled blacksmith's greedy souls are burning!"
Amidst the exclamations of Zi and Xiaoyao, Fenglu recalled the words her grandfather had spoken to her on the day she became a trainer.
"As a trainer, you must always remember that the most important thing in Pokémon battles is not energy level, nor battle type, but the powerful emotion that erupts when humans and Pokémon strive for the same goal!"
While the women were talking, Yati took the lead in sounding the battle horn.
"Super Corner Attack!"
"Hera!"
Upon hearing the command, Heracross immediately prostrated himself on the ground, and at the same time, the huge horn on his head glowed.
Buzz!
With a booming sound from the rapid flapping of transparent wings behind him, Heracross forcefully pushed off with his powerful hind legs.
boom!
Like a missile, Heracles hurtled toward the blacksmith at an astonishing speed.
After being bullied by the blacksmith's superhuman strength for two rounds, Yati wanted to let Xia Mu and the blacksmith experience what it felt like to be bullied by superhuman strength.
But facing the menacing Heracross, Xia Mu did not choose to back down.
"Charge!"
"Clang!"
Although the Crafty Blacksmith wasn't as quick-witted as the Serpent, her greatest strength was her courage. Even if it was Rayquaza charging towards her using Dragon Dive, let alone just Heracross, she would still dare to charge.
So, upon hearing Xia Mu's command, the skilled blacksmith, dragging his sledgehammer in one hand, charged toward Heracross with his short legs.
At this moment, the skilled blacksmith didn't seem to be fighting; rather, he seemed to be courting death.
Therefore, upon seeing this scene, Xiaoyao and Zi closed their eyes, afraid to witness the tragic sight of the skilled blacksmith hanging on the horn.
boom!
After a tremendous roar, the two opened their eyes.
"How could this be?"
Seeing the scene before them, Xiaoyao and Zi showed expressions of shock.
The one who was violently knocked away and crashed into the protective shield at the edge of the field was not the skilled blacksmith, but rather the previously aggressive Heracross.
"What exactly just happened?"
When Xiaoyao asked curiously, Fenglu paused for a moment, then shook her head and said:
"I have no idea!"
"have no idea?"
"I just saw the Blacksmith and Heracross separate after a brief clash, and then Heracross crashed directly into the protective shield."
Feng Lu's eyes held an undisguised doubt; due to the angle, she hadn't been able to see what the master blacksmith had done.
But she knew.
Super Horn Strike is not an attack that concentrates all of one's strength into a charge like a 100,000 horsepower attack, so even if Heracross, trained by Arty, does not hit the Blacksmith, he should be able to stop halfway through.
but.
The moment the skilled blacksmith made contact with Heracross, Heracross's speed increased instead of decreasing, and then Fenglu saw Heracross crash into the protective barrier outside the arena like an idiot.
However, Feng Lu couldn't see clearly because of the angle, but Ya Di was different. Although he wanted to use his superhuman strength to subdue the skilled blacksmith, after two defeats, he had never underestimated Xia Mu.
So, with all his attention focused on the battle, he witnessed firsthand the scene when Heracross's horn clashed with the Blacksmith's.
A brief encounter, a dark aura, and uncontrollable speed.
"Is this a case of substitution?!"
Yati instantly figured out the answer.
"Transplanting Flowers and Grafting Trees" is a skill that uses the opponent's strength to launch an attack.
"The higher the strength of the opponent you are fighting, the greater the damage you will suffer!"
Listening to the explanations given by top student Zi and others about the effects of this skill, Xiaoyao nodded in understanding.
"I see, no wonder Heracross lost control and crashed directly into the protective shield."
At this moment, under Yati's questioning gaze, Xia Mu finally spoke.
"That's right, I used the technique of 'substitution,' and I even incorporated the principle of using softness to overcome hardness from Tai Chi into the 'substitution' skill!"
"Tai Chi?"
"Yes, Tai Chi emphasizes using softness to overcome hardness, using minimal force to deflect maximum force, and leveraging small power to move large forces. This is what I'm talking about in my hometown..."
While explaining to Yadi, Xia Mu urged the skilled blacksmith in his mind through telepathy.
Now's the time! While they've all got my attention, let's strike while they're down!
"Clang clang!"
The skilled blacksmith nodded excitedly, then chuckled twice before continuing to approach Heracross with his hands and feet.
but-.-.
Faced with the sudden silence, the skilled blacksmith finally realized something was wrong.
"Clang?"
Why is it suddenly so quiet?
The skilled blacksmith turned his head curiously and saw Xia Mu, who was speechless and facepalming, as well as other people looking at him with strange expressions.
"Clang?!"
I've been exposed?!
The skilled blacksmith looked at Xia Mu with a shocked expression.
Didn't you say you were good at attracting attention?
"I was attracted, but who told you to suddenly let out that sly laugh?!"
Xia Mu had absolutely no expectations for the blacksmith's intellect.
If you agree, fine, but why did you shout it out excitedly?
Do you know how strange the other people looked at me when you walked in with that sly grin?
Xia Mu was speechless.
Moreover, not only Xia Mu, but everyone around him, even Heracross who had just gotten up from the ground, was speechless.
You're not lacking in ability, so why resort to such petty tricks?!
The skilled blacksmith saw the speechless looks on everyone's faces and immediately jumped up in anger.
"Clang, clang clang!"
You know I'm not very bright, so why are you still rushing me?
"I had no idea you would say that!"
"Clang clang!"
The skilled blacksmith looked very angry, and his hammer was unconsciously swinging around.
While everyone was watching the arguing person and their Pokémon, hesitating whether they should step in to mediate,
Duang!
boom!
The skilled blacksmith, who had just been jumping up and down in anger, instantly turned around and smashed his hammer down on Heracross's head.
"Heracross!!"
"Forehead..-"
"OMG!"
Amidst the incredulous shouts of the crowd, the skilled blacksmith revealed a smug smile to them.
You may call me naive, but I'm actually incredibly clever!
The skilled blacksmith triumphantly beat Heracles, but Xia Mu was shocked.
No, where did this guy learn this kind of thing?
Feint to the east while attacking in the west, retreating in order to advance.
Xia Mu was pleasantly surprised by the skillful blacksmith's progress.
But-
"Natsuki, you really..."
"Sigh, this isn't how the battle should go!"
"You really need to be taught a lesson!"
Everyone was disgusted by Xia Mu's behavior, that he would use their concern about Xia Mu arguing with the blacksmith to start a fight.
How could you do this?
At this moment, even the little angels like Zi showed a disappointed expression to Xia Mu.
but.
"No, I didn't! I didn't instruct her at all!"
"We know you have superpowers."
A black pot inexplicably stuck to Xia Mu's body, and he couldn't remove it.
