Chapter 212: Classic Return Fist Protective Shield Reappears!

Black World—

After multiple trainings and preparations, Ash has already defeated Ajie, Yishu, and Kenan; now only Yulongdu remains.

Ajie and Yishu are relatively easier to fight; having fought Nazi more often, I am very familiar with Psychic-type Poké Balls and have tactics against them.

Kenan's side was harder; they specifically targeted Pikachu, even changed the field to weaken Pikachu, not letting Pikachu continue to suppress with speed.

However, Mankey and Kangaskhan rose up, consecutively suppressing several Poké Balls; it can be said they performed best in the entire field.

Kenan found Ash's fighting style somewhat hard to adapt to, not sure if it's because of the Poké Balls, suddenly felt Ash's style had changed, becoming more aggressive.

Facing Seadra's Ice Beam, Mankey directly smashed the ice surface, grabbed the ice surface to block the Ice Beam, the ice surface enlarged, then Mankey swung the ice surface and slammed it at Seadra.

Later, Dragonite's Ice Beam hit Mankey and froze it, but Mankey quickly broke the ice blocks; a close-combat move dealt considerable damage to Dragonite, leaving the finish to Pikachu.

The audience all saw Black Satoshi's challenge of the Elite Four's process.

And Black Satoshi finally challenged Yulongdu.

"Ash, earlier at Lake of Rage I saw your battle against Team Rocket; then I knew you would always stand here to fight me, just didn't expect it to be so soon."

Yulongdu flung his cloak, looked at Ash with a solemn expression, and threw a Poké Ball.

The first Poké Ball sent out was Seadra.

While Ash sent out Snorlax.

Directly using Farmers Three Fists against Seadra, Snorlax's defense is strong, not dodging or evading; Seadra's attacks on Snorlax caused little damage, but Snorlax's attacks made Seadra suffer badly; finally using Hyper Beam, it landed solid hits on Seadra.

Because Hyper Beam still had side effects, Ash recalled Snorlax and directly sent out Venusaur.

Yulongdu then sent out Aerodactyl, constantly draining Venusaur with high mobility, but it was also seeded with a leech seed by Venusaur.

Ash switched to Charizard.

Aerodactyl struggled against Charizard; even using Rock-type moves, they were destroyed by Charizard's Dragon Claw.

In speed, Charizard was actually faster than Aerodactyl, directly grabbing Aerodactyl and using Earth Throw.

Aerodactyl thus lost its battle capability.

Again, this equal-for-all Earth Throw.... The audience knew Ash's Charizard liked using this move, mainly because it's fast, taking the opponent's Poké Ball into the sky, spinning several times, then directly using gravity to increase power.

Basically, those hit by Charizard's Earth Throw lost battle capability... except that Fire Chicken.

Yulongdu then sent out Gyarados.

After Charizard took a Water Tail, Gyarados continued to use Water Cannon on Charizard; Ash recalled Charizard and switched to Pikachu.

Pikachu was directly engulfed by Water Cannon, but it immediately unleashed 100,000 Volts, conducting through Water Cannon onto Gyarados.

Gyarados painfully roared, while Pikachu directly unleashed a small combo: Electric Net plus Electric Ball, four-times effective, Gyarados couldn't withstand it.

Yulongdu's Dragonite battled Pikachu; Pikachu is quite skilled at fighting Dragonite.

But Yulongdu's Dragonite is one or two levels stronger than the Dragonite of Trainer Yuji from the Orange Islands; and Pikachu also realized Dragonite is the strongest Poké Ball it has encountered since entering the Silver Conference.

Yulongdu's Dragonite has many moves; Pikachu fighting it feels somewhat strained.

Ash infused Aura into Pikachu's body; Pikachu and Dragonite fought back and forth, even beginning to gain the upper hand.

Seeing Pikachu use Flash as quick as Quick Attack, the Iron Tail's power was several times stronger than normal; one Iron Tail smashed the ground, the ground instantly cracked, Dragonite immediately flew up and used Air Slash on Pikachu.

A series of blade-like air slashes struck Pikachu.

"Pikachu, transmit itself like Pikachu to unleash 100,000 Volts!"

Ash shouted.

"Pika Pika!"

Pikachu immediately acted; the emitted 100,000 Volts formed a protective shield around, directly blocking Air Slash, gradually expanding and then counter-attacking Dragonite.

"Nice, Ash can still think of such a defensive method."

Professor Oak's eyes lit up, looking admiringly at Ash and Pikachu.

Their tacit understanding really got better and better.

Nazi knew this move; when battling Ash, Pikachu would rotate itself like this, emitting 100,000 Volts in all directions to resist strong mental power.

【Xiba: Black Satoshi still has this move?】

【Zhensi: Return Fist Protective Shield!】

【Xiluona: When I first saw this move, it was in Ash's battle; Black Satoshi also used it, such talent still amazes people.】

【Ash: Really? I feel fine; it's just something that suddenly came to mind during the journey.】

【Qibana: Again a flash of inspiration, Ash in battle just relies on a flash of inspiration to win unexpectedly.】

【Liu Bo: A flash of inspiration in battle is a huge variable; Ash always does unexpected things in battle, like letting the Fireball Mouse jump into water—a bold maneuver—I couldn't have imagined Ash would do that.】

The battle was nearing its end; Yulongdu's Dragonite used Dragon Rush, while Ash's Pikachu used Crazy Volt.

Dragonite's rush collided with Pikachu, instantly exploding, a strong air wave violently spreading outward.

After the dust cleared, both Pikachu and Dragonite lost battle capability.

Yulongdu released another Dragonite.

Another Dragonite...... Xiaomao was watching in the audience passage, leaning against the wall, arms crossed, seeming casual, but his expression was not casual; he also stared intently at the battlefield.

Seeing Pikachu lost battle capability, he lowered his hands, worrying for Ash.

Xiaoxia and the others, upon seeing, felt nervous; there was still another Dragonite.

Ash sent out Snorlax, just to let Snorlax consume Dragonite.

After landing an Ice Punch on Dragonite, Snorlax was defeated by Dragonite's Dragon Pulse.

Afterwards, Ash sent out Aerodactyl.

Aerodactyl and Dragonite engaged in aerial combat, trading blows; Aerodactyl used Ancient Power on Dragonite.

Only saw several rocks floating around, like meteorites, smashing toward Dragonite.

Dragonite didn't dodge but counterattacked, directly using Dragon Claw on the rocks, shattering them.

Fossil Wing Dragon used Iron Head Technique and fiercely rammed into Dragonite, directly knocking Dragonite down.

Just as Dragonite had just gotten up, the Fossil Wing Dragon quickly unleashed a Dragon Pulse; Dragonite had just lifted its head and saw the Dragon Pulse, raising both arms in front to block.

Boom!

Dragonite was engulfed by the Dragon Pulse, the surroundings instantly exploded, black smoke billowing.

Dragonite's body was instantly covered in wounds, it howled in pain, but ultimately could not withstand this force; moments later it collapsed to the ground, losing its battle capability.

Finally, Yulongdu's Flame Dragon and Ash's Flame Dragon engaged in the final battle.
