Chapter 270 Today's Victory or Defeat - Azure, a Great Victory!
The next day.
Kibana, a super popular internet celebrity with millions of followers across the internet and the owner of the Hammerlocke Dojo, updated a video simultaneously on all his social media platforms.
The title is simple, direct, and full of gimmicks.
"Unboxing! Pokémon Company's Mysterious Event Reward - Rare Candy" Tested! Ultrasonic Larva Evolves Instantly?!
Rather than a meticulously crafted unboxing video, the video is more like a casual vlog full of everyday life and unexpected surprises.
But it is precisely this unvarnished, authentic, and unexpected record that makes the video's content incredibly credible and powerfully impactful!
In the video, the lost Galar Champion Leon "accidentally" enters the frame and, together with Raihana, opens a mysterious package sent by The Pokémon Company.
When the ten dazzling "absolutely perfect" energy cubes appeared, the two's curious and expectant reaction instantly captured the hearts of all the viewers.
Then, the ultrasonic larvae experienced a dramatic "sleep" and awakening after consuming the energy cube.
The incredulous and shocked expressions on the faces of Chibana and Dante when they sensed the increase in energy within its body further heightened the suspense.
But this is just an appetizer.
The real nuclear bomb was detonated in the latter half of the video!
After the ultrasonic larvae swept away the remaining energy cubes, an evolutionary light burst forth without warning, illuminating the entire room!
And the desert dragonfly that transforms in the light, displaying its agile and powerful appearance!
Then there was the battle against Champion Leon's Charizard, which, although a test, was still very exciting!
All of this was faithfully recorded by the phone's camera.
Once the video was released, its views, shares, likes, and comments increased exponentially within just a few hours!
It quickly swept across all major online platforms!
The entire Pokémon trainer community was engulfed in unprecedented celebration and heated discussions!
The comment section is refreshing at a rate of tens of thousands per second.
A cacophony of exclamations, doubts, analyses, and memes flooded the online world, creating an unprecedented uproar.
"Oh my god! Am I really dreaming?! I always thought the 'magical candy' reward that Teacher Salty mentioned in the game was just a promotional gimmick, so I didn't participate in the last event at all—I can't believe it's actually real! Does such an item really exist in the world?! I'm so regretful!!!"
"This is terrifying to think about! Is the world really just a giant makeshift operation? Items that allow Pokémon to evolve and become stronger simply by eating candy—these ridiculously powerful items exist! Are we really living in some massive, real-world game, just a bunch of NPCs?!"
"No way! You're spreading this kind of rumor just to get clicks?! You're a big influencer, have some decency, okay? You actually dare to say something like 'Magic Candy' is real? Aren't you afraid the league will come after you?! (Although the video looks really real—)"
"Holy crap! If the Rare Candy is real! Does that mean we trainers won't have to train our Pokémon so hard anymore? Hit a bottleneck in skill? Just one Rare Candy and it's done! Painless leveling up and ascension! The path to becoming a champion is just around the corner!"
"What are you dreaming about? LOL. Do you really think Rare Candy is as common as cabbage? It's so rare in the game, it must be even rarer in real life! Didn't you see that the first place winner only got ten? And judging from the effects, it's obviously a gradual increase in energy and potential, which is different from leveling up directly in the game. You think you can become the champion by taking drugs?"
You can find anything in your dreams.
"More than the Rare Candy itself, I'm curious about the Pokémon Company that can actually manufacture it in real life! If they have the technology to mass-produce this kind of item reliably—my God, wouldn't they be able to easily overturn the entire Pokémon breeding and battling system?! What's the background of this company?!"
Without a doubt, the keyword "#magiccandy#" skyrocketed to the top of the trending search lists on major online platforms around the world!
Closely related hashtags "#PokémonIncorporated#" and "#Pokémon#" also surged to the top of the trending searches!
It sparked phenomenal nationwide attention and cross-sectoral discussions!
The instigator of all this online storm was the "culprit" who inadvertently ignited this fuse—Bai Zhou.
At this moment, he is leisurely lying on the sofa of a small private jet bound for Manjin City, resting with his eyes closed.
He remains completely unaware of the massive uproar he has caused online.
His purpose for this trip was clear: to attend the grand opening ceremony of the Pokémon All-Round Championship Dome, which would be held there.
Furthermore, the plan is to take this opportunity to acquire all the licenses for important "NPCs" in the Johto region!
The private jet was bustling with activity, except for him.
Crimson, turquoise, gold, silver, even azure, yellow, and Chris—
The main characters from the first and second special episodes were all crammed onto this plane.
Bai Zhou was also a little puzzled. These guys were usually either busy fighting, or busy investigating, or busy with something else.
"To save the world."
Why are people suddenly so interested in this kind of "Pokémon All-Round Competition" that leans towards entertainment and sports?
They all insisted on coming with him, claiming it was to "experience the charm of sports" and "try different ways to interact with Pokémon" —
"I heard that the host of this opening ceremony is Miss Little Walnut from Manjin Radio, who's super popular!"
'
Sitting in the back row of the white boat, Ah Jin, oblivious to his own shortcomings, shouted loudly and habitually twirled his hat, trying to show off.
"This is fantastic! With my current fame, I'll be able to easily get her autograph!"
"Shut up! It's so noisy!"
Sitting next to him, Xiao Yin frowned and muttered a curse in a low voice without any politeness, her eyes cold.
"If you keep talking like that, believe me, I'll throw you off this plane right now!"
Unlike the "irreconcilable differences" between Ah Jin and Xiao Yin, the other couple on the other side seemed to have a rather "harmonious" atmosphere.
"Green".
Red looked at Green, who was reading a book beside him, with an unusually serious expression. His posture was as upright as a primary school student. He earnestly asked, "Could you tell me more about this Pokémon All-Around Competition? I want to learn the rules beforehand so I can prepare."
Qinglu, who was flipping through a book titled "A Record of Local Customs in the Johto Region," didn't even look up. She turned a page with an elegant flourish, her tone casual.
"The Pokémon All-Around Competition, as the name suggests, is a comprehensive sports competition in which trainers and their Pokémon partners participate together."
"It differs from regular league tournaments, which are purely based on the outcome of battles. While competitive matches may also include Pokémon battles, they are not the sole or primary criterion for determining the winner."
He paused, seemingly organizing his thoughts for more precise language.
"The core of competitive sports is not a battle that differentiates between fighting skills and raw power," but rather a sport that showcases the skill, teamwork, physical fitness, and coordination between trainers and Pokémon.
"According to past practice and published information, the all-around competition is generally divided into ten different events, covering multiple dimensions such as speed, strength, endurance, skill, and teamwork."
"However, the projects are not static. There may be some adjustments and changes to this year's specific projects and rules before the official announcement at the opening ceremony."
Having said that, he finally closed the book in his hand and turned to look at Crimson.
A hint of challenging fighting spirit flickered in his sharp eyes, and a slight smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
"However, no matter how the specific projects change, their core purpose is to highlight and test the limits of trainers and Pokémon in a certain specific ability or specialty."
His tone was provocative.
"Only by achieving perfect understanding and teamwork with your Pokémon in every event can you stand out from the crowd and win the competition together."
"In such a comprehensive competition, perhaps even you, the so-called pinnacle, might lose."
Crimson met Green's warlike gaze, remained silent for a moment, and simply lowered the brim of his hat slightly.
His eyes, hidden beneath the brim of his hat, remained as resolute as ever, and he responded with concise and powerful words: "I will win."
Meanwhile, Bilan, who was sitting next to Bai Zhou, secretly confirmed that he seemed to have closed his eyes and entered a light sleep.
The dog immediately turned its head furtively and gave Little Yellow and Chris, who were sitting in the last row, a knowing look.
After successfully attracting the attention of the two girls, she seized the opportunity, flicked her wrist, and accurately tossed a crumpled piece of paper over.
Xiao Huang reacted quickly and caught the paper ball steadily.
After Chris curiously leaned closer, the two carefully unfolded the crumpled paper together.
The crumpled paper had Bilan's slightly messy handwriting on it, and it looked like it was written in a hurry before boarding the plane.
Emergency Operations Meeting! Top Secret!
Situation: According to top-secret information from my invincible intelligence network! After the opening ceremony of this year's Pokémon All-Around Competition, the organizers will be holding a special water-based multi-sport exhibition match!
Content: A multi-stage exhibition competition featuring various events including water fishing, water racing, and water obstacle courses! All invited celebrities attending the opening ceremony will be invited to participate! The aim is to generate buzz and discussion for the entire Pokémon All-Around Competition!
Key point: It will be streamed live across the entire internet! The viewership is expected to be phenomenal!
Opportunity: This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Our ultimate goal: to defeat the Great Demon King Bai Zhou head-on during the live broadcast! To record our glorious victory! From then on, we will have a precious and wonderful memento that we can relive, prove ourselves, and even have (scratch that) a piece of evidence to cherish!
Current situation: For this reason, I, the genius girl Azure who possesses both wisdom and beauty, have devised a detailed "demon-slaying" plan!
But! Crimson, Blue, and Gold, those three idiots, under the long-term "tyranny" of the Great Demon King White Boat, absolutely refuse to participate in our righteous action!
Therefore, this glorious and arduous task can only be accomplished by our girls' alliance!
The outline of the "Demon Slayer Project" is as follows:
And so on, and so forth—
There appear to be some more detailed tactical sketches, but they are too illegible to be fully deciphered due to the messy and hasty handwriting.
For the glory of our girls' alliance! Go for it!
After reading the message, Xiao Huang immediately tensed up, and her face turned pale.
She really wanted to refuse to participate in this plan, which looked "dangerous".
However, it seemed that Azure Sister had already regarded her as a core member of the team, and she didn't know how to refuse, so she nervously clenched the hem of her clothes.
"Okay, okay, relax a bit, Little Huang."
Chris noticed Xiao Huang's nervousness and anxiety, smiled, put her arm around her, and gently comforted her, "It's just a performance competition anyway, having fun is the most important thing! Besides, don't you think this kind of group 'secret operation' is very exciting and very interesting?"
Azure noticed Little Yellow's wavering, and leaned half her body out of the aisle, winking and mouthing, "For the glory of our sisters!"
White Boat was just about to drift off to sleep and escape the noise of this bunch of clowns.
Feeling the increasingly noticeable vibrations and rustling sounds coming from the seat next to me, I couldn't help but let out a big thumbs up.
His eyes snapped open, and without even looking, a swift and precise "Love Chop" slashed out, striking the little blue head that was just peeking out.
"Awoo~"
Azure instantly clutched her head with both hands, letting out an exaggerated cry of pain that sounded almost like a sob.
She turned around pitifully, blinking her big eyes, trying to put on a weak and vulnerable appearance as a victim.
"Quiet down!"
Bai Zhou wasn't fooled by her acting at all. He glared at her fiercely and questioned her in a low voice, "You little brat, are you plotting something bad to get back at me? Confess!"
He brandished his fist menacingly.
"Don't let me catch you by the tail! Otherwise—heh heh, you know the consequences."
"Hey~ What did you say, Bai Zhou-ge~"
Azure Light instantly changed its expression, abandoning its pitiful look and revealing a bright, sunny, and innocent smile.
Even her voice became sweet and sticky, and she started to act coquettishly while hugging Bai Zhou's arm.
"How could I possibly be at odds with you, the brilliant, handsome, and the best guy in the universe, Bai Zhou? I respect and admire you so much!"
As she spoke, she blinked her bright, large eyes forcefully, attempting to use her "cuteness" to enhance her persuasiveness.
"Stop acting normal!"
Bai Zhou's face darkened, and he felt goosebumps rising on his skin.
I decisively pulled my arm away, put on noise-canceling headphones and an eye mask, and completely shut out all external interference.
Out of sight, out of mind; out of hearing, out of annoyance!
Seeing Bai Zhou's "I can't be bothered with you" look, Bi Lan secretly made a victory "V" sign behind her back, a sly smile curling at the corner of her mouth.
Plans are in place!
Absolutely undetected!
Today's outcome – Azure, a resounding victory!
