Chapter 216

Wusong: To be so harsh on a youngster, Black Sakaki is truly ruthless; the giant needle bee's attack was aimed at Black Satoshi's back, and if it weren't for the Wave Guiding Power sensing it, he would probably have been hit by the giant needle bee.

Xiao Jian: How fast is that giant needle bee? I don't even know when it appeared above Ash, but Black Satoshi's Wave Guiding Power also sensed it, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

Xia Bo: Hard to say, just looking at how the giant needle bee dodged Pikachu's Iron Tail with that speed, it's quite extraordinary; I estimate it will be another tough battle.

Kenan: A tough battle is fine; I'm not afraid of the giant needle bee entering the fight, I'm afraid it won't enter. If, while Black Satoshi is focused on battle, it suddenly sneaks up behind him for a sneak attack, the trouble would be greater, impossible to defend against!

Dan Di: So unchivalrous, directly attacking a trainer, and moreover bullying the weak, it's really too disgraceful.

Such remarks, Sakaki disdains to pay attention; if it weren't for the White Light Curtain having too many Poké Balls come out to stop them, he would definitely have sent out the giant needle bee to deal with Mewtwo.

In the Black World, he is even more cautious, and for the sake of his goal he employs any means necessary.

Black World—

Ash's gaze locked tightly onto the crack in the ground beside him, his expression becoming unusually solemn, a feeling of lingering fear rising in his heart. Although he had experienced many battles and crises, he had never before encountered a situation where a trainer was suddenly attacked like this.

Suddenly attacking a trainer...... If I didn't possess the Wave Guiding Power, able to sense danger in advance, I would probably have been hit now, lying on the ground.

From now on we must constantly watch out for the giant needle bee, and pay attention to the surroundings at all times; Sakaki is not as useless as the Team Rocket Trio, his aura and the Pokémon he trains are extremely stern, fast, and his attacks are even more vicious and brutal, belonging to the type of ruthless person who speaks little.

"You guys help Duo Mi Nuo!"

Sakaki grabbed the railing in front with one hand, his whole body exuding an aura that could not be underestimated, the corner of his mouth curling into a playful smile, carrying a provocative air.

"Take a look at the strength of this champion who defeated Adu!"

The giant needle bee glanced indifferently at Pikachu.

Although giant needle bees are commonly seen, the one raised by Sakaki gives an extremely strong sense of oppression, completely different from the ones by the roadside.

"Pikachu, electric net!"

Ash shouted.

Pikachu immediately responded, yellow current surging around its body, instantly weaving into a huge electric net that it flung toward the giant needle bee ahead.

The giant needle bee was extraordinarily sensitive, its body erupting with a strong whirlwind; it tilted slightly and easily dodged, the electric net missing entirely and striking the empty open field.

Then the giant needle bee's two stingers were instantly wrapped in white light, like two sharp light swords, flashing with a piercing cold glow.

His figure surged, becoming a silver bolt of lightning, twin stingers like spears thrusting straight at Pikachu. Pikachu was agile, constantly dodging left and right, but big needle bee's attacks followed like a shadow, layers of spear-light impenetrable.

Pikachu seized the moment when big needle bee was closest, and a powerful surge of electricity burst from its body, shooting outward in all directions.

The dazzling electric strike intertwined with big needle bee's silver silhouette, emitting a sizzle.

Big needle bee, however, seemed to have anticipated it, its body suddenly sinking, stepping back several paces, and dodging Pikachu's attack once again.

Thereafter, Pikachu leapt forward and charged straight at big needle bee.

Its tail suddenly flared with a white aura, sweeping forward with a fierce momentum. Big needle bee showed no weakness, swinging its twin stingers again, colliding hard with Pikachu's Iron Tail.

Each collision sent sparks flying.

Sakaki's expression remained unchanged.

"Champion? Even Adu is no good, he actually managed to lose to you!"

Together with Adu, he mocked, Sakaki truly looked down on Ash, not even personally commanding, being quite casual.

Even if he thought Pikachu had been raised well, he still didn't think much of it.

【Ma Zhishi: Is Sakaki's big needle bee really that strong? Fortunately Ash's first Gym challenge wasn't at Vermilion Gym, otherwise we'd all be questioning our lives.】

【Brock: When I fought Xiaomao, I didn't use big needle bee, eh.】

【Doctor Da Mu: Xiaomao was way too lacking back then; maybe Sakaki was provoked and deliberately sent out Super Dream to fight Xiaomao!】

【Xiaomao:...】

Xiaomao indicated he was speechless.

Ash's expression turned grave, the surging wave-guiding power like a tide gushing forth, rapidly spreading outward, with several streams flowing into Pikachu's body.

Pikachu's entire body also quietly appeared with a blue aura matching Ash's.

"You're already using your trump card this quickly?"

Sakaki snorted.

"A flash of electricity."

It was Pikachu's turn to counterattack.

With the wave-guiding power's boost, Pikachu suddenly burst forth with astonishing speed, like a yellow bolt of lightning, instantly reaching big needle bee's face.

Big needle bee used its sharp twin stingers as a shield to block Pikachu's attack.

Although it could block, big needle bee was ultimately knocked flying by Pikachu, only barely stabilizing as gusts of air surged around its body.
