Chapter 180: Overwhelming Power Breaks All Laws! Secret Seasoning! (2/2, Please Subscribe)

The seven-colored light slowly dissipated.

Revealing the extraordinarily handsome Mega Lucario beneath.

Mega Lucario's surface bore more black stripes, its skin tone deepened, and its feet turned red.

The milky-white fur on its body grew longer, its thighs became slimmer, and more spikes sprouted on the backs of its hands and soles of its feet.

Whether on its limbs or the wave sensors behind its head, all were tinged with a shade of red symbolizing courage.

Compared to before, Mega Lucario's every movement now carried immense intimidation.

Meanwhile, around Mega Lucario's neck hung a pendant set with an orange gemstone containing hues of blue and red.

【Lucarionite】

This was one of the reasons Lucario could undergo Mega Evolution.

For a Pokémon to Mega Evolve, besides possessing a Mega Evolution form as a prerequisite, three requirements must be met.

First, a deep bond with the Trainer.

Second, the Trainer must possess a 【Key Stone】.

Third, one must have the Evolution Stone corresponding to that specific Pokémon.

All three are indispensable.

Such stringent conditions are exchanged for a leap in power!

"Cha!"

Mega Lucario stood shoulder to shoulder with Luo Ge, their auras resonating with each other, even merging together.

Forming a blue pillar of light shooting straight into the sky.

Unlike ordinary Trainers, Luo Ge possessed the ability to fight alongside his Pokémon.

Only thus could he truly be called the 【Aura Guardian】.

Luo Ge stepped forward with his left foot, lowered his body slightly, and clenched his fists, one positioned in front of the other.

Lucario, conversely, mirrored Luo Ge's movements.

Standing side by side, the two assumed symmetrical stances, their combined aura overwhelming Netero!

"How about it, old man?"

"Not bad, right?"

Luo Ge said with a smile.

Netero's mouth twitched slightly, unsure of what to say.

How had he forgotten about Luo Ge's Nen beast?

Perhaps Luo Ge's displayed strength was so high that he subconsciously overlooked the role of the Nen beast.

He never expected Luo Ge's Nen beast to possess such power!

Netero's pressure suddenly increased.

However...

This was exactly what he desired!

Netero narrowed his eyes and spoke in a calm tempo:

"It seems quite good."

"I hope it can make me enjoy this even more."

Those eyes frequently flashed with brilliance.

One had to admit, Luo Ge would be the future standard-bearer of the Shingen-ryu.

And he would most likely be the most powerful person the Shingen-ryu could ever produce!

Luo Ge would in the future stand at the pinnacle of the world.

He believed this without a shadow of a doubt.

Even...

Regarding that place known as the 【Human No-Go Zone】, the Dark Continent, Luo Ge was not incapable of venturing there.

In his youth, he had barely stepped onto the threshold of the Dark Continent, forced to flee back before truly setting foot on that land.

Since that time, he had believed this title was not inappropriate.

For humans, that place was indeed a no-go zone.

It seemed now that this young man before him was qualified to set foot on that land!

Thinking of this, Netero's smile grew deeper, as if he had put down some burden and could now fully enjoy the battle.

In the blink of an eye, Netero swiftly swung his hands, the multiple arms behind him moving simultaneously, creating an indescribable sense of oppression.

The next moment, both Luo Ge and Mega Lucario vanished from their original spots.

Attacking Netero from left and right!

Facing a pincer attack from two sides, Netero remained surprisingly calm, even carrying a hint of solemnity.

Without time to consider too much, Netero mobilized more Nen; the golden light of the Guanyin statue behind him intensified, and countless arms struck toward his—

Side!

This was not some kind of precognitive ability.

Rather, it was the culmination of an old man's decades of martial arts experience.

He was gambling!

In the end, he had gambled correctly.

To Netero's left—

Luo Ge suddenly materialized, his right fist coated in a blinding orange-red Nen, shining brilliantly like the scorching sun.
