Chapter 909: Martial Arts Qi
The battle field was silent.
The Dojo crowd stared silently at Corviknight falling from the sky, full of disbelief.
Master, Master actually —
"Why don't you cheer anymore?"
Honey turned her head strangely, seeing the disciples depressed and silent, and laughed: "A bunch of little fools, look closely at your Master's expression, he is happy!"
Hearing this, the disciples looked toward the field one after another.
Only to see Mustard looking at the Corviknight that had lost its ability to battle, not frustrated, but laughing loudly with excitement.
This scene immediately put them at ease, sighing that the Master is the Master, and his psychological quality is much stronger than theirs.
Honey continued: "You guys, just think too much and do too little, no wonder your Master doesn't let you graduate. Stimulated now? Know that there is someone beyond someone, and there is a heaven beyond heaven?"
The Dojo crowd, who were taught a lesson, lowered their heads embarrassedly.
It wasn't that they were making a fuss.
It was really that among the Trainers the Dojo crowd knew so far, only the current Champion Leon had ever defeated and suppressed Mustard's Pokémon.
Others, even if Raihan came, could only fight two rounds and exchange ideas.
And All Baimu, this unknown Trainer, first beat Avery and Klara violently, and then occupied the absolute advantage in the battle with the Master.
How could the Dojo crowd not be shocked?
Looking at one and not making a sound is certain.
"Master's wife——"
"Don't ask me, I also saw this young man for the first time, but there are not many people like this in the world."
Honey waved her hand.
She was also very surprised by All Baimu's strength. Her dear husband was old, not dead, and had never forgotten to train Pokémon after retiring for many years, even if his body couldn't keep up, his vision and experience were still there.
Who knew he would meet such a young man who would sneak attack an old comrade.
"This kind of battle is interesting!"
Mustard laughed loudly.
Since establishing Master Mustard's Dojo, he hadn't competed with a powerful opponent other than Leon for a long time.
For this old Champion, compared to winning or losing, the most important thing was to fight to his heart's content.
Mega Gengar helped him find the fun of his youth, that sense of anticipation of waiting for him to break through a high wall ahead!
Mustard recalled Corviknight and said pityingly: "You've worked hard."
Although it was the first Pokémon to lose its ability to battle, it had already achieved the strategic purpose of sending it to the field —
Most of the poison liquid on the ground was blown away by the Hurricane.
"Go! Mienshao!"
Bang!
White light turned into a humanoid white weasel, its eyes sharp like a sword, its posture upright like a pine.
It seemed that using 【Sludge Wave】 again could block Mienshao's path of movement, but would Mustard, who had been hit once, be hit a second time?
Even someone as bold as All Baimu didn't dare to bet.
So he gave a bolder command.
"Gen!"
Mega Gengar poked its head out suddenly, like a great white shark breaking through the water, opening its bottomless blood basin and rushing forward!
Mienshao tapped its toes on the ground and retreated wildly, but it was half a beat slow in the end.
"Mienshao——"
"High Jump Kick!"
Before Mustard could shout the command, it had been swallowed into Mega Gengar's belly.
The two Pokémon disappeared into the ground together.
Whoosh~
Wind blew and sand rolled.
This move really caught Mustard a bit off guard.
Since the beginning of the battle, Mega Gengar's only risky move was appearing behind Corviknight and using Thunderbolt on it.
Couldn't hold back?
Mustard observed All Baimu's expression in the distance and soon denied this idea.
More importantly, he keenly discovered that Mienshao's "Qi" disappeared without a trace, just like Mega Gengar.
Causing him to be unable to adjust his own "Qi" to secretly give Mienshao commands.
Originally thought Mega Gengar's ability was similar to invisibility, just more hidden.
But even the "Qi" of the opponent's Pokémon could be hidden together...
Following the 【Shadow Tag】 ability, Master Mustard ate a dark loss again because of the information gap between the two sides, which made him have to admit he was old.
It was really that he was old, and his logical thinking and judgment had declined, not as good as the young man opposite.
The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front...
Mustard couldn't help but think of another young man who made him suffer repeatedly, his most outstanding disciple — Leon.
The two were quite similar but very different.
The difference lies in the way the two sides battle.
Leon likes to attack the most, and his moves are fierce and indomitable.
And the characteristic All Baimu currently shows is a watertight "defense"; no matter who he battles, he must occupy the absolute advantage before launching a fierce attack.
Even if he takes risks, it is still to serve the acquisition of greater advantages.
Mustard was looking forward to the meeting of these two young men.
He stood calmly, knowing that even if Mienshao didn't get the order, it would actively attack Mega Gengar.
Who knew.
Mienshao, which was swallowed, didn't stay in Mega Gengar's stomach, but was in a strange space where the four directions were chaotic and unclear.
Its top, bottom, left, and right were all void, with no point of force, let alone Mega Gengar's trace.
"Mienshao......"
It closed its eyes and tried to feel the opponent's Qi.
Although the floating feet were very unfriendly to it, which needed a point of force for half of its kung fu, but as an old partner of Master Mustard for many years, it wouldn't be flustered.
Suddenly.
A squeezing force pushing it backward came from all directions, and at the same time, a scorching burning sensation came from all parts of its body inexplicably.
It hurriedly flicked its sleeve-like long hair, only to find that it returned to reality like a fish breaking through water, maintaining a prone posture.
The two worlds seemed to exist only with a thin membrane.
"Mienshao? Mienshao——"
Mienshao was about to get up, but silk-like flames suddenly appeared in its snow-white fur, growing with the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it was completely enveloped!
Mustard shouted: "Reversal! Toward the shadow!"
"Mienshao!"
Mienshao endured the pain of being burned by the flames, swung its arms violently toward the shadow under its body, and the hair lingering with black light swept across the air like a long whip, screaming!
Bang!
Dust flew.
A white shadow rushed out of the shadow, and stopped after flying to a high place.
"Gen~gar——"
Mega Gengar grinned and covered its head, and quickly hid in the different dimension.
Mentioned earlier that there are few Pokémon in the world that can resist the pain of burns, who knew that Mienshao was one of them.
And its instantaneous reaction wouldn't drop!
If it were a second, or even half a second slower, Mega Gengar, which spat Mienshao out of the different dimension, could have successfully dodged it.
Fortunately, the burn status would reduce the physical attack ability.
Mega Gengar's injuries were not serious.
It, which had gained the initiative, hid in the different dimension and laughed secretly, and there was also a trace of lingering fear in its heart.
Traveling by itself and taking the opponent to travel are two different things.
According to All Baimu's experiment, external touch couldn't drag the opponent into the different dimension, but swallowing into the belly could barely do it.
The reason seemed to be that its throat formed a special channel, linking the different dimension with reality — similar to the Pokédex introduction of Gigantamax Gengar.
But doing so also burdened Gengar, unable to detain the opponent for a long time, and could only be spat out after being imprisoned for a period of time.
With this as a premise.
All Baimu considered that opening Will-O-Wisp before swallowing Mienshao wasn't fast enough and would be dodged by Mienshao, so he adopted the method of swallowing Mienshao into its belly, locking it in the different dimension, and then letting Mega Gengar use the move.
When spitting Mienshao out, let it actively hit the Will-O-Wisp in front of its mouth, and everything would be fine.
It must be said.
It was a bit of a risky move.
But the gain was indeed huge, not to mention facing the sophisticated Mustard, not taking some risks would sooner or later have his hand cards seen through.
Therefore.
This big gamble All Baimu made a lot of money!
Unless Mienshao could heal the burn immediately, then he definitely had no temper and would give Mustard a thumbs up.
And now that he had gained the initiative, All Baimu didn't hesitate anymore.
"Nasty Plot."
"Gen~gar!"
Mega Gengar poked its head out from high altitude, staring at Mienshao, whose flames were gradually fading, with a flash of evil black light in its eyes.
Mustard shouted: "Bounce!"
"Mienshao!"
Mienshao tapped its right foot on the ground, flying up like performing the first light kung fu of Wudang, and kicked toward Mega Gengar in the sky!
All Baimu: "Dodge."
Mega Gengar, lingering with orange-red light, was prepared, and instead of retreating, it rolled forward to dodge.
The number of times it dodged by flashing through the different dimension was too many, and the ordinary but swift dodging means made Mienshao and Mustard particularly surprised.
Almost didn't react.
And the miss of Bounce also caused Mienshao to rush to a higher place.
Briefly staying in the air, it looked down at the ill-intentioned Mega Gengar below, and took a deep breath.
"Acrobatics!"
"Hex!"
Both sides gave orders at the same time.
Mega Gengar's starting action was a bit faster, and a phantom pupil opened on the golden disc between its eyebrows.
Purple-red air waves rolled out from the pupil!
However, unexpectedly, Mienshao, shrouded in sky-blue light, clearly had no point of force under its feet, but magically turned into blue light and moved horizontally, avoiding the purple-red air waves!
"Gen~gar?"
"Mienshao!"
Facing Mega Gengar's astonishment, Mienshao rushed down from the side with a firm expression!
The entire dodging process lasted only for an instant, even All Baimu only saw the trace clearly, unable to let Mega Gengar change direction or dodge.
Mustard actually hid a move!
Better at hiding than him!
Thud!
In a flash, the two Pokémon fell into the earth from high altitude, splashing continuous dust.
"Payback!"
Mustard continued to order from the air, trying to consolidate the results.
The Dojo crowd thought the scale of victory began to tilt toward the Master, and they all showed joy.
But they didn't have time to cheer, and saw a purple-red light flash, and the surging energy suddenly swept away the rising smoke.
And in the center.
Mega Gengar bit Mienshao's left foot with its sharp white teeth, and the vertical pupil between its eyebrows sprayed a large amount of purple-red air waves, washing over the opponent's body.
Bang!
Purple-red light flames and smoke exploded again.
Mienshao flew out backward violently, spun a few times in the air, extended its right foot to land steadily, but then fell down with a slap, kneeling on one knee with pain on its face.
Strands of flames and smoke rose.
It was the burn status flaring up again.
The Dojo crowd's hanging hearts fell to the bottom, unable to imagine that Mega Gengar could actually fight, dodge, and resist.
How could there be such a terrifying Pokémon in the world?
But.
They were afraid, but Mienshao was not.
Even if it was burned by the flames and painful, this Pokémon still stood up shakily.
Its eyes were as firm as iron, just like Mustard, who had a stern face behind it.
The injured left foot was slowly raised.
"Mien... shao!"
The scarred Mienshao stood on one leg, and the invisible momentum swept toward everyone, not to mention the Dojo crowd who were deeply shocked, even All Baimu and Mega Gengar were moved.
What a powerful will!
Next, it's the last move!
Everyone had such a thought in their minds, staring at the field.
"Dazzling Gleam!"
"Blaze Kick!"
Both sides gave orders at the same time.
Only to see the flames burning around Mienshao actively gathered toward the left foot, and the orange-red firelight swayed, actually turning into a strange light blue.
The next instant.
It rushed straight toward Mega Gengar, which was covered in colorful light, in the distance!
Rumble!
The flames brushed past the air, making a heavy muffled sound!
In the blink of an eye, Mienshao had arrived in front of Mega Gengar, and it, which was on the verge of fainting, suddenly erupted with extreme speed comparable to when it was boosted by Agility!
Familiar movements.
Like the confrontation when both sides entered the field.
Mienshao's body turned, its eyes like electricity, and the light blue Blaze Kick turned into a line of fire, swinging toward the back of Mega Gengar's head!
And then.
It successfully grazed its sharp ears.
Just because Mega Gengar looked like it was going to fight it head-on, but actually dissipated and entered the different dimension halfway.
Everyone looked at this scene in a daze.
If it were the opening confrontation, a miss would be a miss.
But at the moment, Mienshao was already in an explosive state at the end of its strength, once and for all, and then declining.
As the Blaze Kick kicked into the air, its body couldn't help but tilt forward.
"Mienshao!"
Mienshao tried to stand firm, but Mega Gengar poked its head out behind it, full of sinister laughter, and then erupted with dazzling colorful light.
Bang!
The intense Fairy-type energy impact blew Mienshao away!
The Dojo crowd couldn't bear to look anymore and turned their heads away one after another.
Fortunately.
This move sent Mienshao on its final journey, and it fell to the ground with its eyes turned into black circles.
Mustard praised: "Young and promising!"
Mega Gengar seemed to have taken down its opponent from behind twice, but there was a small difference between the two attacks.
When fighting Corviknight, Mega Gengar seemed to disappear to dodge Hurricane, but it was actually more to get close to the opponent and impose intense and seamless attacks.
Because it had to ensure that it took down Corviknight before the Taunt status disappeared.
Otherwise, with its previous attack ability, Corviknight could easily restore the lost stamina through Roost.
Look at it just now.
A fierce confrontation at the last moment, even if it took a Blaze Kick, it could successfully defeat the tenacious Mienshao.
How tempting?
But All Baimu didn't do that.
He saw that Mienshao, which looked imposing on the surface, was actually at the end of its strength, so he let Mega Gengar pretend to fight head-on, but actually dodge with all its strength.
The result was obvious.
Blaze Kick was dodged, and Mienshao was taken down without a fight.
Mustard had to praise this state of mind that was not moved by external objects and remained calm until the last moment.
You know, the Qi adjusted by him and Mienshao at the end was very easy to make the opponent go to their head.
It was equivalent to a signal to stimulate the opponent's desire for a head-on confrontation.
Leon often fell for it.
Of course.
This also had to do with the different battle styles of the two sides.
"You've worked hard."
Mustard recalled Mienshao and said softly: "You did well, you created the opportunity, I will grasp it firmly."
In fact.
He had guessed All Baimu's plan.
But did Mienshao have a choice at that time? Mienshao had no choice, if it didn't kick this foot, there would be no kick later.
If it hits, it's a big profit, if it doesn't...
Then it doesn't hit.
Its mission had already been accomplished! ===== CHAPTER 910 =====
