Chapter 183: Brave Snake Snake, unafraid of flames!

Dan Emperor's face involuntarily flashed a hint of shock, 'Brave Bird?'

The smile on Luozi's face gradually froze.

He looked in astonishment at Ash, who dominated the field and firmly attracted the audience's gaze, his eyes full of admiration and regret.

Admiring that Ash was naturally the focus of everyone's gaze.

Regretting that Ash did not belong to the Galar region he loved so much.

On the judges' bench,

These days she had been researching the Grand Festival, never paying attention to Ash's Cynthia, and now she was also dazed.

From the initial overheating, then the tail freezing, then Brave Bird!

Cynthia said, 'I can't accept this?'

A grass snake playing with ice and fire, who can withstand this!?

Sizzle~

Serperior's body moved swiftly, its whole body wrapped in earth-colored energy protection,

At the same time, twelve red lights continuously appeared on its body, and because of Brave Bird, its dual defenses rose to +6!

Under the gaze of the multitude,

Serperior directly charged straight into the flames,

Good grief, a grass-type Pokemon self-immolates!

She's not scared at all!

What a brave Serperior!

"Flames: Don't I care about face?"

No matter how surprised the audience was, Serperior charging into the flames had become an established fact.

On the field, at the moment Serperior was about to reach Charizard's vicinity,

"Now!"

Ash gave the command,

The Serperior, coiled and ready, suddenly stretched its body to the fullest, like a divine dragon swinging its tail!

Immense force, ultimate speed,

In the air forming the explosive crack of a whip lash!

Smack!!!

"Thunder Punch!"

At the critical moment,

Dan Emperor took out Charizard's most frequently used and most proficient close-combat technique for countering Water-type opponents.

In the flames, Charizard reacted swiftly, golden-yellow currents entwining its dragon claws as it struck down forcefully!

Boom!

The golden-yellow current spread throughout Serperior's entire body,

Although its abdomen was struck, Charizard suffered even more, a piercing pain came from its belly, and its body directly staggered backward out of the flames,

Finally losing balance, it fell backward onto the ground, causing the entire audience to be astonished.

After all, it was not a strengthened physical attack,

Being able to do this much was already thanks to type advantage and the power of Brave Bird's base power of 120 playing a key role.

At the same time,

As time passed, the flames gradually dissipated,

Everyone finally could see the scene within the flames, Serperior was like a war king, bathed in blazing fire and golden-yellow lightning,

Its noble, disdainful, domineering gaze that looked down upon the world instantly conquered the entire audience.

"Serperior!"

"Serperior!"

"Serperior!"

The cheers of the hundred thousand spectators rose wave after wave, piercing the clouds and lingering for a long time.

Luozi once again revealed an envious gaze from the heart.

I only wish Ash had been born in Galar!

The battle continued, with both sides exchanging blows, but the Serperior that was being countered always held the advantage.

Even Serperior performed a stunt of swallowing and spewing flames,

Making the audience exclaim, 'This is unscientific!'

As time slowly passed, the countdown on the big screen quickly showed only 02:30 left.

The final duration was two and a half minutes!

Used to display the overbearing nature of Super Extreme Gigantification, it was just right.

"It's time, Dan Emperor!"

As if hearing Luozi's murmur, Dan Emperor took out the prepared Extreme Gigantification energy crystal.

"Charizard, show the world your new appearance! Super Extreme Gigantification!!!"

Taking the crystal,

The excited Charizard, without thinking, swallowed the stone, and instantly explosive power spread throughout its body.

The scorching flames began to spread, eventually completely covering Charizard's body.

Two red clouds began to appear,

Boom...... boom...... boom!!

It was as if a dull drum had been struck, echoing in the noisy crowd, the sound waves like mountain-shouting and sea-tsunami within the stadium.

Everyone who sensed something was wrong stopped shouting,

Holding their breath, focusing their minds,

The entire stadium fell silent in an instant!

In the flames, Charizard's body suddenly began to swell and expand,

"Roar~"

Accompanied by the evil dragon's roar and the spreading flames, Charizard's body rapidly expanded to 34 meters at a visible speed!

Its massive body was like a small hill!

The flame wings forged of blazing fire appeared even more terrifying and domineering, and its white belly gave a striking impression.

The diamond-shaped flame spots made one feel that Charizard was not to be provoked.

Before the Super Extreme Gigantic Charizard, humans were like ants!

"What is this?"

"Oh my God!"

"Can this match still go on?"

"Bringing in Ash, he's already angry, supporting a boycott, reporting it—how the hell can this be played?"

"Taking drugs on the field? Is that reasonable!?"

"No, is this Charizard legal?"

"Damn you, refund the money!"

Ordinary people are ultimately not like the higher-ups,

Even in the internet age, the channels for obtaining information are relatively limited.

Almost all the spectators exclaimed, "What the hell is this thing?!"

They indicated they could not accept it!

But the on-site staff who had earlier received the warning naturally remained unmoved, continuing to let the match proceed.

However, upon seeing the Super Extreme Gigantic Charizard appear with their own eyes, even they all showed bewildered expressions.

If it weren't for seeing Da Wu sitting properly in the judges' seat,

Ash opposite them remained unfazed, calm and composed, while the judge had already thrown down his tools and quit, running away.

Even so,

The arm holding the small flag still couldn't stop trembling.

Damn it, who wouldn't be dazed seeing such a huge Charizard!

……

Alola Pokemon School.

"Doctor, this this this..."

"What is this? Can Charizard evolve to be this big?"

"Am I really in school and not dreaming?"

"This, I've heard of, is a phenomenon unique to the Galar region called Extreme Gigantification."

This time, Doctor Kukui finally was no longer completely clueless.

"In the state of Extreme Gigantification, a Pokémon's size is enlarged more than tenfold, all its stats are greatly increased, and even the form of its moves changes."

Kukui frowned, then continued: "According to reason, this technique is like a Z-move and is not allowed to be used in matches."

"Then why does the Dan Emperor Champion use it? Isn't that cheating?"

"That's pretty shameless!"

Hearing the children's discussion, Doctor Kukui felt somewhat awkward.

"Cough cough... you can't say that either, after all, although this is an official match, it's not a traditional formal major tournament, so it's likely already been agreed upon,"

"Look, Ash's expression remains calm, as if he had long known this would happen."

"Ah?"

"Really!"

"But wouldn't that be a disadvantage?"

Kukui pondered, "Then maybe not."

……

Alola Aether Paradise, Chairman's office,

Lusamine watched the latest scene on the screen, her hands clenched tightly crossed, worrying for Ash.

The Extreme Gigantification phenomenon in the Galar region, she had naturally heard of.

Extreme Gigantification possesses explosive power, raising a Pokémon's stats by multiple folds; ordinary Pokémon three or five of them could not even get close.

Moreover,

What Kukui could think of, she could naturally understand as well.

Knowing this, they must have greeted each other in advance.

Sure enough, Ash had calculated it well, intending to use Grass Z in this match!

Such a response is truly thought-provoking.

But it also made Lusamine a little happy.
