Chapter 186: The Ancient Dragon's Rage, Great Indignation

The roaring pillars of fire turned into flames entangling its body. The fierce dragon from ancient times launched an attack on its own as soon as it appeared!

"It's this roar!" Entei's mouth charged up a purple Blast Burn: "Who on earth are you!"

The voice that had been troubling the fake Entei and causing it continuous pain in its heart was like the anger of having its identity usurped, yet it didn't know this guy in front of it at all!

Although it also had a face similar to its own!

"Roar!"

The purple Blast Burn slammed into Gouging Fire and exploded, but the next moment those purple flames were absorbed by this ancient fire dragon, turning into the power of a charge!

Flare Blitz!

That exaggerated golden shield horn slammed into Entei, knocking it flying from its original position. This huge power frightened Molly, who had intended to have a Pokémon battle. The girl frowned, her expression nervous, and at the same time she heard Entei's shout:

"Don't be afraid, Molly! Give me an order! I want to... defeat the guy in front of me!"

"This is your world, everything here exists for you. As long as you want, you can do anything!"

"I..." Molly bit her lip, took a deep breath, and looked at the ancient fire dragon that was roaring angrily and preparing to pounce: "Daddy, use Flamethrower!"

Entei felt the encouragement and will from his "daughter," and the injuries on his body disappeared instantly, making Xiang Guangtai's eyes narrow slightly.

Just like in the original work, the Pokémon related to Molly have almost infinite stamina and the trait of "the more you believe, the stronger you become." This is no longer a problem of illegal Pokémon, but this thing really cannot be considered a Pokémon.

It's even more powerful than cheating!

The violent flames impacted Gouging Fire's body, but the next moment the flames scattered, and a ring-shaped fire shield shining with brilliant light blocked the Flamethrower attack, and even completely absorbed the heat of the Flamethrower, turning it into its own use!

Burning Bulwark! Gouging Fire's signature move, puts itself into a Protect state, protecting itself from most physical or special moves from other Pokémon.

When attacked by contact moves while in the Protect state, it will also cause the attacker to fall into a Burn state!

"Hmph!" Gouging Fire bared its teeth, revealing a mocking grin, and opened the fire shield surrounding its body to provoke, while the anger on Entei's face opposite became more obvious!

"Although it's shameless not to get hurt, fortunately, the guy I created also has a similar characteristic." Xiang Guangtai used the Heart of Crystal to call Gouging Fire's heart. Unexpectedly, this ancient fire dragon had noticed Xiang Guangtai long ago!

Like Walking Wake, it is not just a mental phantom, but was pulled from a dream from the ancient times by the Dragon Plate!

And Gouging Fire not only felt the call of the stone plate and strange power, but Xiang Guangtai's body even retained a scent that made it feel familiar!

That is the scent of Walking Wake!

"Roar..." Gouging Fire observed Xiang Guangtai in confusion. It was sure that it didn't know Xiang Guangtai at all, but it still wanted to thank Xiang Guangtai for freeing it from the nightmare that troubled it.

Hmm... In short, in the distant ancient times, some "humans" had sacrificed to it. That kind of thing... Actually, Gouging Fire can roughly understand it. It should be time travel.

Compared to the impatient and problematic Walking Wake, Gouging Fire's wisdom was much higher.

"You ask why I have the smell of Walking Wake on me? Because it has already come to this world." Xiang Guangtai looked at Gouging Fire's reaction in surprise. This guy was slightly stunned at first, then his expression showed a clear "thinking state," and then he nodded humanely, as if saying "I know."

"Can you understand me?"

"Roar." Gouging Fire patted the ground with its claws, indicating that it had experienced similar things long ago.

"Then, the image of the ancient Entei that appeared in the Johto region, was it really you?"

"Roar?" Gouging Fire's eyes rolled up.

Who knows about that kind of thing? Maybe it was me, or maybe it was another species that looked very similar to me. For example, the fake one in front of me!

Not long ago, I was trapped in an ancient nightmare. Something distorted my body and power, shaping a completely unknown object. Where did the power of the so-called fantasy object come from?

It's those ruins, sculptures, murals, and "memories" from ancient times to the present, and even from other worlds!

Gouging Fire roared!

Now, it's time to wake up from this nightmare! The figure I glimpsed in the nightmare is standing clearly in front of me!

"How dare you call me a fake! You are the distorted phantom!"

The fake Entei was angered by Gouging Fire's attitude. The more it looked at Gouging Fire, the more strange it felt. It clearly had a lion-like face, but it had an extra golden horn like a huge shield, and its four claws had turned into dragon-like ones. Does this really not count as a stitched monster!

If you look at the degree of "incoordination," it is obviously the guy opposite who is the fake!

"What, what kind of Pokémon is that? Another Entei?"

Ash and the others running on the Sky Stairs witnessed the duel between the two "Entei" from a bird's-eye view, but one of them had an abnormal form, so Ash couldn't help but open the Pokédex.

【Beep—It's an unknown Pokémon.】

"I knew it."

The Pokédex given by Professor Oak only records Pokémon from the Kanto and Johto regions at this time, and it is difficult to identify even Pokémon from Hoenn and Sinnoh, let alone the Paradox species from the distant ancient times.

And it wasn't just Ash, there was another group of people running up from downstairs!

"Sneaky, tiptoeing... is there really treasure in this place?"

"It's already this time, we can't leave empty-handed, right?"

"That, what kind of Pokémon is that?!"

The strange trio quietly touched under the Sky Stairs from behind, and the confrontation between the two "Entei" shocked the trio!

A tall woman in a white capable uniform with a red R logo on her clothes had exaggerated red hair, while the handsome man had light cyan short hair, and... a Meowth that could speak human language.

"Oh, Team Rocket trio? Jessie, James, Meowth?"

Your friend, 【True Protagonist Group】 is online!

Xiang Guangtai was also stunned. There are many details about the movie that he can't remember. Did the trio run up like this on the way?

The super talents of Team Rocket, except for criminal skills, all other strange skills are full... The three guys who keep following Ash to chase Ash's Pikachu...

Ah, can't say that either. They still have criminal skills. They were wanted by Officer Jenny before meeting Ash, but after encountering Ash's group, they completely became comedic characters. It's hard to say whether this is a weakening or a strengthening.

"Hey, wait a minute."

"Shi! Discovered!" The three said in unison, nervously looking at the two "Entei," and the "Trainer" commanding the two Entei was also a completely unknown person!

"I said you guys, have you seen Unown?" Xiang Guangtai remembered that the trio sneaked into the mansion to find treasure, and broke into the hall where the Unown gathered by mistake at the beginning.

"Look, saw it Meowth!" Meowth danced: "In the hall on the left on the first floor!"

"Thank you!" Xiang Guangtai waved his hand: "Jessie, James, Meowth! Let's talk after things are over."

Of course we have to talk. Xiang Guangtai also plans to learn the technology of "super-fast hand-made giant robots" from this trio! Those giant robots used to catch Pokémon are not only cheap to build, but also functional. Although they have various problems, such as "not fire-resistant, not water-resistant, not grass-resistant this time due to budget issues," etc., they have prominent weaknesses.

But that's not a big problem at all! With a little modification, these robots can become a huge help for regional construction! It is a huge loss that the Pokémon League didn't recruit these three guys. With them, the League's engineering team could be disbanded on the spot.

In one episode of the animation, these three guys even really hand-made a rocket that could enter space, using only the pocket money from working at the festival... Xiang Guangtai felt that he could no longer describe the trio's attainments in mechanical engineering. They are simply the Green-skinned Orcs of the Pokémon world. Assembling props emphasizes "I think so."

"Eh, does this person know us?"

"Not clear, what a strange person."

"Anyway, let's go find the treasure quickly."

The trio looked at each other, spread their hands, and then ran to the upper floor without looking back!

"Hmph!" Entei looked at the few people moving forward and let out a cold snort of disdain and anger.

Two more floors up is where Molly's body is. After solving the guy in front of me, I must... must go back immediately!

Entei: "Molly, believe in me. As long as you believe in my power, as long as you are willing to believe in me, then I can do anything!"

"Saying things like that makes us look like villains." Xiang Guangtai had already established initial trust with Gouging Fire. This guy is easier to talk to than Walking Wake!

"Hmph." Gouging Fire glanced at Xiang Guangtai.

The human who subdued Walking Wake has some skills, and this power is not that of an ordinary person.

Alright, as a thank you for pulling me out of the nightmare and giving me a chance to fight...

I'll listen to your command for now!

The flames on Gouging Fire's body rose sharply, and Entei also received the amplification of his daughter's "mental power"! He opened his huge mouth, and blue flames rotated and gathered in his mouth!

That was the idealistic outburst that appeared in the original work. Although the special effects were very much like "Sacred Fire," it was not confirmed!

Boom! The illegal sky-blue flames turned into a pillar of light. Gouging Fire's response method was also very simple.

"Burning Bulwark!"

"Roar!"

The fire shield surrounding its body blocked the terrifying idealistic fire again. Gouging Fire glanced at Xiang Guangtai quickly! It was waiting for the next instruction!

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

Gouging Fire used Roar. The violent sound shock wave stirred the vibration of space, and Entei's attack and special attack decreased!

"Use this." Xiang Guangtai took out the Ancient Bracelet and brought it into contact with Gouging Fire, and a wonderful power and "illusion" appeared in Gouging Fire's mind! That was the teaching of moves!

A blurry ancient giant was using strange moves, and a large number of rocks were circling around like cannonballs, and then bombarded forward!

【Gouging Fire learned "Stone Edge"!】

Gouging Fire, who had obtained a powerful move, was like a tiger with wings. Following that, another hard gray stone was thrown over. Gouging Fire bit it and suddenly felt a powerful attribute power in its body being stimulated!

"The mystery of rock strengthens all power related to the Rock attribute!"

"Hard Stone, increases the power of Rock-type moves by 20%!"

"Go, Stone Edge with maximum power!"

When those thick dragon claws stomped on the ground, the entire green mental wilderness suddenly echoed with a rock atmosphere. Stone pillars of various sizes rose from the ground. Entei carried his "daughter" and jumped onto a rising stone pillar, suddenly turning his head. Gouging Fire had already rushed into mid-air in the form of a pounce!

Sharp giant stones shining with white light circled around it, like two magnificent planetary rings!

"Oh no!"

Entei looked behind him. In order not to involve his daughter, he resolutely met the brutal Gouging Fire!

Although the "Molly" here is just a mental incarnation.

But Entei didn't want her to be hurt, not at all!

Gouging Fire's roar came from high altitude!

Maximum power, Stone Edge!

It poured down on Entei like a rainstorm!

"Roar!!!"

Entei let out a terrifying roar, and he gathered all his strength and jumped up!

"Daddy!"

"Molly, believe in me! Believe that I will definitely win!"

Entei roared, and violent flames wrapped around his body. That was the same move as when Gouging Fire first appeared!

"If that phantom can use this move, then I can use it too!"

Gather the power of flames on the body, condense, condense again, and then, release it in one breath! Turn yourself into a fierce and invincible fireball!

Flare Blitz!

"Crash over with Stone Edge! Dragon Rush!"

Gouging Fire's body turned into a roaring purple-blue dragon, carrying an invincible momentum and terrifying murderous intent, and together with those sharp rocks like a rainstorm, slammed into Entei's body with a suicidal posture without any politeness!

The huge power of the Dragon type, the rainstorm-like giant stone attack, and the invincible flame power formed a huge explosion shock wave in mid-air. The "Rock Field" that had just formed on the wilderness was instantly destroyed, and a large amount of gravel was rolled up by the wind and scattered and fell around. Gouging Fire's giant horns and Entei were almost welded together, and the two beasts raised their claws at the same time!

Stomp!

Dragon Claw!

"I won't lose!" Entei roared, separating immediately after colliding with Gouging Fire, and then his four feet gathered strength. At that moment, the speed exceeded the limit of what the naked eye could capture, and he directly hammered Gouging Fire's abdomen with one claw, knocking this ancient fire dragon flying!

Extreme Speed! A priority stunt that only a very few Pokémon can learn!

"Body Slam!"

When Entei rushed over for the second time using Extreme Speed, Gouging Fire adjusted his position in the air, grabbed Entei's claws, and then pressed his entire body on it!

Boom! Entei was pressed by Gouging Fire and fell from the sky, completely collapsing a stone pillar, and tiny electric currents appeared on his body!

Paralyzed state!

He raised his head suddenly. Gouging Fire had already gathered all his strength. A large number of ancient stones surging with faint blue light were summoned by Gouging Fire like an army. The powerful power caused the entire earth to tremble violently!

Maximum power, inject all the rock power into this attack!

"Ancient Power!"

All abilities increased!

"Then, let that angry flame pierce the earth!"

"Great Indignation!"

Thick pillars of fire and crazy flames surged from Gouging Fire. The unbridled rage tore apart everything in front of it. In Entei's angry eyes, Gouging Fire's rage completely swallowed it. The violent roar accompanied a fleeing figure in a mess, breaking through the shackles of the crystal floor and fleeing to the top floor of the Crystal Tower.

The ancient fire dragon let out a victorious roar, and by the way, gave a wink to the human who commanded it.

Well fought!
