Chapter 178

She was terrified that the dragon would roar again in a moment.

Stirring up a gale.

And then, Paimon would 'accidentally' pull out her hair again.

Damn it.

If that happened a few more times, she'd be bald!

"The identity of this young man is probably not as simple as we thought."

"Ah, how so?"

Qi Qi Liangliang scratched her head.

"Anyone capable of communicating with a dragon must possess extraordinary abilities."

Kamisato Ayaka watched the bizarre scene before her, sighing inwardly.

"Is that so?"

Qi Qi Liangliang didn't react in time.

After all, she was a yōkai.

Her way of thinking was naturally different from humans.

She only felt that the dragon... was enduring extraordinary suffering.

"Of course it's not ordinary."

Kamisato Ayaka glanced at this naturally simple-minded girl.

Even in Inazuma.

People capable of communicating with 'yōkai' were rare to begin with.

Not the likes of Yae Miko or Qi Qi Liangliang, but yōkai that hadn't taken human form or retained their beast forms.

In Inazuma, humans and yōkai were basically enemies, alright.

It wasn't as beautiful and harmonious as the storybooks told.

Just then, Dvalin suddenly became alert.

Its massive dragon head swung back and forth.

Its nose sniffing the abnormal scent in the air.

The corrosion of 500 years of agony had made it exceptionally sensitive.

Strange elemental auras were being transmitted through the air.

And so, it suddenly opened its blood-red maw.

Its eyes flashing with anger and ferocity.

It let out a deafening roar toward the group behind the rock.

"Who?"

Venti also sensed something was wrong and spun around abruptly.

His two small braids were brighter than before.

His face was covered in frost.

Clearly, he was in a state of rage.

In the plot, this was the only time the Anemo Archon Barbatos ever showed his braids to the Traveler.

"Roar!"

Amidst Dvalin's roar, a gale instantly swept through the entire forest.

The powerful storm uprooted surrounding trees, rocks and weeds flew everywhere, and the air was in complete chaos.

Lu Shu's group, caught off guard, was also blown about by the gale.

Paimon was blown away.

She reached out and grabbed Qi Qi Liangliang's tail.

Causing the other to let out a series of screams.

Seeing this, Lumine felt relieved, secretly congratulating herself on her foresight.

Otherwise, it would have been her hair suffering again this time.

【Hum!】

The Poké Ball began to stir inexplicably.

"I know, I know."

Lu Shu hurriedly grabbed the Poké Ball and threw it out with a 'Biu'.

"Go, Pikachu!!"

The Poké Ball traced a perfect arc, completely unaffected by the gale.

With a 'Biu'.

Unexpectedly, yet 'accurately', it smacked Venti right on the forehead.

Then it bounced off.

Smacking Venti's little head back slightly.

A clear red mark was visible on his forehead.

"Ow (☆ω☆)!"

Seeing this comical scene, Lu Shu couldn't help but pinch his chin and ponder.

《Question: What is the feasibility of capturing Venti with a Poké Ball? 》

He felt inexplicably excited.

You have to know, Venti was an Anemo spirit to begin with.

And there were similar 'creatures' in Pokémon.

Then, wouldn't that mean...

Hehe.

Looks like next time I have to find that profiteer and get a few unused Poké Balls.

Venti was a bit dazed~

What the hell was that?

And?

Who threw it at him?

Just as he was about to look closely, a roar reached his ears.

"Dra-nite!!"

A bright light flashed on the Poké Ball, and a massive yellow creature suddenly appeared out of thin air before them.

Descending from the sky, its shadow enveloped Barbatos.

"Oh, (☆ω☆)"

Lu Shu's eyes lit up.

In the past, there was Sushang's roar, 'Phoenix Manifestation', and then a goose-excitedly charging up, sitting the opponent to death with a Mount Tai Press.

Today, there was him, Lu Shu, throwing a Poké Ball, and a Dragonite's thousand-pound drop sitting the Anemo Archon Barbatos flat.

Same move, but compared to the damage, the insult was greater.

Pity.

Lu Shu was ultimately disappointed.

Venti instantly turned into a breeze and vanished from the spot.

"Pity, I wanted to see the Anemo Archon sat under a butt!"

MD.

He wanted to see him sat under a butt?

Who was it?

Simply a great humiliation.

The breeze circled behind.

Holy crap!

Isn't this that mysterious person from Khaenri'ah 500 years ago?

I hadn't even gone to find him. ===== CHAPTER 179 =====
