Chapter 144 My hammer is pretty good, isn't it?
Evolution is undoubtedly a miracle for Pokémon.
The seemingly useless Magikarp can evolve into the terrifying Destroyer.
The two-meter-tall Howler Whale can instantly transform into a behemoth exceeding fourteen meters in length after evolution.
This is true even for a novice blacksmith.
After evolving into a skilled blacksmith, her basic attributes improved in every aspect, from the astonishing explosive power contained in her petite body to her jaw-dropping strength.
therefore.
The skilled blacksmith clenched his fist excitedly, feeling the surge of power within his body, and couldn't help but shout out.
"Clang! Let's fight!"
boom!
With a single step, the hard ground cracked instantly, and the skilled blacksmith's body shot out like an arrow.
Ignoring the referee's cry of pain after being hit by the pebbles, the blacksmith's eyes were only on the Blaziken not far away.
Although it was for the sake of evolution, the frustrating experience he had just had was still fresh in the blacksmith's memory.
When have I, a master blacksmith, ever suffered such injustice?!
I'm always the one bullying others, okay?!
Eager to avenge his previous defeat, the Padia bully charged at Blaziken with his giant hammer, looking like he was going to smash Blaziken to pieces.
Blaziken, however, was prepared for this.
A round lens appeared in front of his right eye, and relying on the power of the "See Through" skill, he completely grasped the Blacksmith's movement trajectory.
Meanwhile, fueled by the speed of several charged flame attacks, he advanced instead of retreating.
Blaziken easily dodged the Blacksmith's attack, then raised its right leg high, poised to unleash a Flame Kick.
Boom!
As expected, the Flame Kick Wolf struck the Skilled Blacksmith.
But unlike Blaziken's imagination of being kicked away by its own foot, the blacksmith spun around the moment it was hit.
The dark, massive hammer slammed directly into the Blaziken.
boom!
Natsuki's pupils contracted as he watched the Blaziken being instantly blasted away.
"This is-"
"A skill called 'Transplanting Flowers and Grafting Trees'! The master blacksmith uses the opponent's strength to counterattack; the higher the opponent's attack, the greater the damage! Blaziken has undoubtedly suffered a severe blow!"
Zhu Guang's passionate commentary not only explained to the audience why the skilled blacksmith wasn't kicked away, but also helped Xia Mu understand what the skill was.
Obviously.
Because of his experience of being constantly beaten before evolving, the Master Blacksmith learned new skills after evolving.
A clever tactic of defensive counter-attack.
This brilliant counterattack drew cheers from everyone.
"That's it!"
"That's the kind of intense, back-and-forth battle I want to see!"
Go Hemsworth!
At the same time, Xiaoyao's expression was very serious.
As Natsuki's travel companion, she was particularly aware of the little blacksmith's extraordinary strength.
May, already possessing immense strength, was even unsure whether her Blaziken could continue fighting, given the added effect of the teleportation technique.
However, May no longer had time to worry about Blaziken.
Because the next to appear will be the bullying duo who beat up the flying chicken.
"Clang!"
"Wild swings and punches!"
When Natsuki and the blacksmith saw the Blaziken being knocked away, they both chose to press their advantage.
Compared to May, Natsuki and the blacksmith undoubtedly have more confidence in Blaziken.
"This kind of attack won't defeat Blaziken; we need to work harder!"
"Clang!"
then.
As Blaziken crashed heavily into the barrier at the edge of the arena and fell helplessly, Blacksmith had already raised the hammer, shrouded in Dark-type energy, from below.
Wildly swinging and hitting!
Unlike his previous spinning top-like attacks, the skilled blacksmith now swung his hammer, creating afterimages.
then,
Everyone else saw Blaziken being repeatedly attacked in mid-air.
The user attempted to resist using a skill, but was interrupted.
Triggering the raging fire had no effect.
The blacksmith stopped attacking and put down his hammer only after Blaziken lost its ability to fight.
"Clang!"
After taking a deep look at the Blaziken lying on the ground, the blacksmith raised his right hand.
"Clang clang!"
"Victory! From being completely overwhelmed by Blaziken to seizing the opportunity and unleashing a series of attacks, the Master Blacksmith has finally secured the final victory!"
"Congratulations to Natsuki and Takumi! After two days of battle, they have finally won the Pokémon World Championship Junior Cup, successfully defeating May to become the champion!!"
Amidst Zhu Guang's excited shouts and the audience's thrilled screams.
Xiaoyao walked up to Xiamu.
"They really show no mercy!"
"Well, after all, I'm an egalitarian who can kick girls without hesitation!"
"..."
Xiaoyao was speechless.
"What kind of egalitarianism is this?!"
"Besides, in a situation like this, you should say 'the opponent is also very strong,' and then say something like 'a battle is about going all out,' right? Your emotional intelligence is really worrying!"
Despite Xiaoyao's complaints, Xia Mu acted as if it were perfectly normal.
"Because you and Blaziken are already very strong, there's no need to say more!"
.....
Sometimes, Xiaoyao wasn't sure if Xia Mu was pretending to be stupid or if he really was.
However, at this moment, a smile couldn't help but appear on Xiaoyao's face.
But Xia Mu felt that what he said was absolutely correct.
After all, if the blacksmith hadn't suddenly mastered a new skill, the outcome of the battle against a tough opponent like Blaziken, with its high agility and high attack, would have been uncertain.
"I'm fighting with the mindset of losing the championship prize money!"
Just then, the blacksmith, seeing Blaziken quickly revive under Chansey's care, immediately placed his hammer in front of him.
"Clang?"
How about it? My hammer is pretty good, isn't it?
Blaziken: "...—"
You just knocked me out with a hammer, and then you ask me how I feel about that hammer?!
Blaziken is speechless.
Fortunately, he knew that the blacksmith was a bit slow-witted, so he didn't take it to heart. Otherwise, if he had used a different Pokémon, there might have been a second round of battle.
While Natsuki and Haruka, along with the blacksmith and Blaziken, were discussing the battle they had just fought...
At this moment, Zideng and Bailu also arrived at the center of the battlefield, along with a large number of staff members and Pokémon fighting the Gray Guy.
Mighty, superhuman strength, iron-boned natives—
This can be seen from the appearance of these Pokémon.
The organizers want to set up a simple awards stage here.
Just as Xia Mu was intently watching the construction site in front of him, Bai Lu walked up to Xia Mu and Xiao Yao with several Flying Cloud Ice Creams in her hands.
"This is a dessert to celebrate!"
"Thank you, Bailu, that's so thoughtful!"
A sweet smile immediately appeared on Xiaoyao's gluttonous face.
"Hehehe, don't be shy, I wanted some too—"
At this moment, Zi Deng, who was following behind Bai Lu, also congratulated the two of them with her hands behind her back.
"That was a great fight! You both worked so hard!"
"No, but you've come at the right time. You have no idea what Xia Mu just said to me—"
Xiaoyao immediately pulled Zideng and Bailu aside to start whispering to each other.
Seeing this, Xia Mu frowned and said, "What are you babbling about? You're all being fined 80,000 yuan each!"
They felt that the numbers Xia Mu mentioned were not made up, after all, the prize money for the runner-up and third place in the Youth Cup was 80,000.
"Oh, so that's why you kept saying you wanted us to sweep the top three spots!!"
"You're hopeless!"
Bai Lu, completely unaware of Xia Mu's sinister intentions, stared blankly at the two women denouncing Xia Mu until the icy touch on the back of her hand suddenly brought her back to her senses.
"Oh dear, the ice cream is melting, hurry up and eat it!"
Bai Lu licked the white cream off the back of her hand and immediately urged Xia Mu and the others to hurry up.
then.
Xia Mu got one, Xiao Yao got one, Zi Deng got one, and she got one herself.
They sat in a row and shared the fruit.
After the award ceremony platform was completed, the staff turned around and looked at Xia Mu and the others who were sitting on the ground licking ice cream and looking at them.
For a moment, I felt a little confused about how busy I had just been.
wait?
Didn't the organizers say the awards ceremony was in a rush?!
Why do these guys seem so eager to keep watching?!
