Chapter 306: Giant Dragon Evolution!
"Mo Nao!"
The single-headed dragon bit down on the azure-blue flames, but didn't release them right away—instead it kept charging toward the Qixi Blue Bird.
Though its four limbs were a bit short and stocky, its speed was in no way slow!
The opponent was mildly startled, having no idea what the single-headed dragon was planning, and could only shout:
"Use Dragon Dance to dodge!"
"Churu!"
The Qixi Blue Bird spread its wings and took to the sky. Though at first it had been so frightened by the ghost mask that it didn't dare flap its wings too fast, as its focus gradually poured into the dance, a glimmering blue radiance gathered over its body and its speed became swift once more.
Vivian couldn't help herself and praised, "What a beautiful dance~ Ah! What's happening! The single-headed dragon actually lay down!"
Suddenly one could see the single-headed dragon, azure flames still clenched in its mouth, lying on its back. Using the back of its head and its neck as leverage, it exerted force with a sudden heave and sent itself spinning rapidly!
"Mo Nao!"
In the low roar, the dragon flame, having accumulated to its absolute peak, surged out in a frenzy, and following the single-headed dragon's spinning motion it transformed into a winding, upward-rising energy dragon, completely sealing off any space the Qixi Blue Bird could dodge into!
In the prep room, little Guang showed a delighted expression.
"It's Counter Shield! The single-headed dragon pulled it off!"
"Pokaa!" Pochama watched the screen intently, silently cheering it on.
It really didn't want to see Munchlax's match end in a place like this.
On the field.
The Qixi Blue Bird couldn't find any gap to slip through. The massive dragon-flame wave had nearly formed a cage, constantly compressing its room to maneuver.
"Dodge to the left with Feather Dance—"
The opponent nervously clenched her fists, but alas, her command and the Qixi Blue Bird's movement were both a beat too slow. The energy dragon had already lunged at it like a living thing!
Boom!
Dust exploded outward. The Qixi Blue Bird, a Dragon-type Pokémon, showed a pained expression and fell from midair.
Smack!
The opponent's score plummeted, instantly reduced to only two-thirds, while Baimu's side had barely lost an eighth—less than that—because of the overly long setup.
Too bad the Dragon Pulse's post-hit display wasn't flashy enough; if it had ended with fireworks, the opponent would have lost even more points.
And seeing this, the opponent was both relieved and grinding her teeth in frustration.
"Yuqi!"
After landing, the Qixi Blue Bird hadn't actually lost its fighting ability yet. Glowing white-feathered plumes rose up, rapidly healing its injuries.
However, stamina could be restored, but the score couldn't be recovered.
At the same time, the single-headed dragon—which had finally stopped spinning and flipped back around—continued to lunge toward the Qixi Blue Bird, its mad-dog-like posture leaving Vivian quite astonished.
"What fast reaction speed!"
"Ice Fang!"
A bone-chilling cold seeped from its mouth, and the Qixi Blue Bird hurriedly flapped its wings to shield its head!
An opening!
The opponent's eyes suddenly went wide.
"Cotton Guard!"
At her shout, just as the single-headed dragon lunged forward and opened its jaws to bite down, the Qixi Blue Bird's cloud-like downy feathers instantly swelled into a pure-white sphere!
The cold that should have bitten into the latter's neck was held firmly at bay by the resilient down, and the single-headed dragon found itself unable to pull its body free for the moment.
Layer upon layer of overlapping down had nearly become an airtight wall.
Baimu's score plummeted, but the opponent paid it no mind and let out a great shout.
"Don't let go of it! Carry it up into the sky!"
"Churu!"
The Qixi Blue Bird let out a long, melodious cry, and with a sudden spread of its cloud-like wings—now several times larger—beat them rapidly, actually sending the single-headed dragon trapped in its down soaring up into the sky!
"Mo Nao!" The single-headed dragon struggled to break free, but couldn't overcome the violent shaking.
The audience cried out in unison. The fate of a Pokémon without the ability to fly being carried into the sky seemed already sealed.
"Throw it up!"
As the opponent's words fell, the Qixi Blue Bird's abnormally broad wings suddenly "snapped"—the portion wrapped around the single-headed dragon flew toward even higher sky.
"Dragon Pulse!"
"Churu!
"
The Qixi Blue Bird raised its head and opened its beak, about to spit a ball of azure-blue flame down at the falling single-headed dragon.
But at that moment, Baimu—who had given no signal for quite a while—suddenly shouted out loud.
"Now! Dragon Dive!"
Everyone present was stunned, and then they saw the single-headed dragon high in the air—which had looked completely at the mercy of gravity—suddenly adjust its diving posture. An indigo-blue light flared on its forehead, and flames spilled out from between its hairs, instantly covering its entire body!
"Mo Nao—!
"
The pure-blue giant dragon's head let out a terrifying roar, charging down from above toward the Qixi Blue Bird, and brutally colliding with the Dragon-type energy it had spewed out!
Boom!
A pale-blue shockwave exploded in midair, and the violent thunderous boom made everyone's hearts on the scene tremble.
They stared wide-eyed, watching the dragon flame rising from below not shatter into smoke, but instead be devoured by that enormous dragon's head. The latter, as if nourished, gradually grew a body, grew wings, revealing an utterly ferocious and terrifying form!
"Roar!
"
The energy wave made the air tremble, like a dragon's roar lingering in everyone's ears, ruthlessly swallowing the Qixi Azure Bird below and driving straight down into the earth!
Boom—!
Countless cracks split the ground, and thick smoke rose into the air.
They all turned in unison to look at the score on the big screen, but before they could take more than a few glances, an even clearer roar and a sky-blue light flashed together within the arena.
The dense dust and smoke seemed to be blown away by some illusory force, revealing the scene within the arena.
They saw the Single-Headed Dragon trampling firmly on the Qixi Azure Bird, with miraculous radiance and brilliant flowing fireflies swirling around its body, releasing a breathtaking beauty!
Vivian said in disbelief: "In the fierce battle with the Qixi Azure Bird, the Single-Headed Dragon evolved!"
Some looked at the Single-Headed Dragon's rapidly changing body, while others looked at All Baimu's calm expression, and immediately understood that this evolution had been entirely within the other's expectations.
At this moment.
The scoring device on the big screen seemed to finally come to its senses, directly deducting the opponent's score to zero.
The scoring devices in front of the three judges all lit up with red crosses at once.
This also meant the Qixi Azure Bird had lost its ability to battle and been defeated by the Single-Headed Dragon.
The coordinator trainer named Caiyu was left speechless, able only to fix her gaze on the Single-Headed Dragon whose appearance was rapidly changing.
They saw its body grow broader, sharp claws extend from the tops of its four feet, and two tread-like patterns appear on its belly. A pair of long, slender wings grew from its back, and its round head split from one into two — yes, one head split into two rather than a new one growing out from the neck.
"Hee-yah—" "Hee-yah—"
Accompanied by two cries, the miraculous light of evolution dimmed.
The pitch-black Two-Headed Tyrannosaurus, in a brand-new form—
Was born!
The audience offered applause and cheers for All Baimu and the Two-Headed Tyrannosaurus!
