Chapter 101

The sunshine is really nice, huh!

Calm your mind and listen attentively to the sound of the wind.

Kenan gazed gently at the sea surface.

Xiaoxia and Xiao Jian were completely confused; Kenan, the Elite Four, seemed to be admiring the scenery, paying little attention to them.

Calm your mind?

Listen attentively to the sound of the wind?

Ash looked at Kenan with a strange expression; is this a hint?

It seems Master Xiba also said something similar.

Could it be that one should calm down during a battle?

Listen to the Pokémon's heart and sync with them?!

Ash thought that was the case and said it out loud to Kenan.

【Kenan: I just saw such beautiful scenery and felt moved; Black Satoshi could associate it with that, it's all Black Xiba's fault, saying things like that.】

【Xiba: What you said isn't much different from what I later taught Ash; I seriously suspect you just happened to see Ash's battle and used the scenery to hint at him; as for the Black World, I don't know, maybe you were really just looking at the scenery!】

【Shitron: Thanks for everyone's guidance; Ash has now mastered it.】

【Ash: I don't know if I've mastered it or not, but it's thanks to everyone's guidance; thanks, everyone!】

After chatting for a while, Ash sent a duel request to Kenan, hoping to go all out in a battle with him.

All right, tomorrow then!

Kenan invited Ash and his group to attend her lecture, then go to her villa's battlefield for the duel.

She also wanted to have a battle with this newly promoted Stone English Conference Champion, just to see the opponent's strength; during the finals, she watched Ash's battle performance, which could be said to be top-notch, and the Trainer also had Wave Guidance.

After playing for a day, Ash lay in bed, excited and unable to sleep, his heart filled with excitement and anticipation; battling the Elite Four will be a rare learning and growth opportunity; recalling each battle at the Stone English Conference, he realized there were many areas in his tactics and strategy that still needed improvement.

And this battle against Kenan will be a good opportunity to test his progress and discover his shortcomings.

Last time at the Stone English Conference he didn't challenge the Elite Four, so this time let's see how big the gap is between him and the Elite Four.

At the Poké Ball lecture.

First round, Kenan used Braindead Shell Beast, and Braindead Shell Beast easily defeated the guest's Strong Arm with a million-ton heavy punch.

Second round, Kenan sent out White Sea Lion, which easily defeated the guest's gala gala.

Third round, Kenan used Spiky Shell Beast, and Spiky Shell Beast easily defeated the guest's Brave Base Pull with a powerful blizzard.

In the stands, a burst of cheers suddenly erupted.

Kenan, the Elite Four member, is still so formidable; facing Kenan, they have little hope of victory, only hoping to learn something from battling her, after all, the Kanto Elite Four truly have something to teach.

Xiaoxia cheered loudly, her pretty face full of excitement.

What terrifying suppressive power......

Watching Kenan's performance on the battlefield, his composed demeanor and the combat power displayed by the Poké Ball not only put great pressure on the opponent but also gave Ash a chilling feeling.

In his mind, he kept replaying Kenan's performance from the three battles just now, feeling a challenge and motivation unlike anything before, but more so, pressure!

Usually like flowing water, but in a match it turns into hard ice.

Now Ash finally understands this saying; in a match it really does turn into hard ice, which is very troublesome.

After the lecture ended, Ash and his group went to Kenan's villa.

After a brief chat, Kenan then led Ash and his group to the villa's battlefield.

Ash, bring out the Poké Ball you think you've trained best.

Kenan's voice was calm and powerful, her eyes revealing a serious attitude toward this battle.

After some thought, she still decided to send out Dragonite.

Ah! Dragonite?

Xiaoxia's exclamation echoed in the air; she felt extremely surprised by Kenan's decision. At the previous Poké Ball lecture, although Kenan had displayed several exceptionally strong Poké Balls, Dragonite rarely appeared.

Kenan's Dragonite is the one she captured as a child; ever since, it has stayed with her, and now Dragonite has become Kenan's ace.

I thought that in this battle, Kenan might only send out the Poké Balls that appeared in the lecture, but I never expected her to directly send out her own ace.

I never imagined Kenan would actually bring out her ace to battle Ash; does she think Ash's strength can only be suppressed if he uses his ace?

The ace she captured since childhood?

Facing Kenan's Dragonite, Ash also knew Kenan's basic information, narrowing his eyes, staring fixedly at Dragonite; the opposing Dragonite looked anything but simple at first glance—although it had a cute appearance, its gaze felt off, not only being the ace Kenan had captured since childhood, but also a powerful being that had endured countless battles and tempering.

Compared to his Dragonite, it seemed his own Dragonite's gaze was a bit clear and foolish.

If that's the case, then Pikachu, you go!

You sent out the Poké Ball you first captured, so I naturally must also send out the Poké Ball I first captured, which is also the Poké Ball I've trained best.

Upon hearing Ash's summon, Pikachu immediately jumped up excitedly, its eyes flashing with the light of battle.

At that moment, the Team Rocket Trio was observing from afar with a telescope.

The little brat is actually battling Kenan of the Elite Four, and both sides have sent out their aces!

Xiaociao watched as Poké Balls were sent out for battle one after another.

That's the Elite Four; can the little brat and Pikachu handle it?

Probably... Meow......

Meow also isn't certain, after all the Elite Four have been famous for a long time, and Kenan even brought out her ace.

They thought,

Pikachu, it's quite risky!
