Chapter 465: Confronting Zha'aobo
Huo La stared at Zha'aobo's still trembling arm, seized the key instantly, and shouted a warning: "His fusion with Nekrozma is highly unstable! As long as our attack exceeds the limit he can endure, his defeat is certain!"
Goulu Zhaobo's eye corner twitched fiercely, and his entire right arm kept trembling.
He never expected Lai Ke to be so decisive, directly ambushing his arm that was gripping the Spacial Rend, brutally breaking his fusion with Nekrozma and inflicting serious injury.
In the end, it was his overconfidence and deliberate exaggeration that fully exposed his fatal weakness.
With no time to heal, Zha'aobo's complexion turned completely cold, and he barked, "Evil Eating King, Four-jaw Needle Dragon, block them!"
Immediately after, he flung two Ultra Balls: "Pheromosa, Buzzwole, go together!"
The two light spheres hit the ground, and two brand‑new Ultra Beasts instantly appeared.
The elegant, strikingly cold aura of Pheromosa, and the Buzzwole, its body covered in Red muscles and exuding savage power, both stood on the battlefield, and the Intimidation instantly maxed out.
Huo La's Rotom Phone scanned at high speed, instantly popping up the full data on the four Ultra Beasts.
He glanced quickly, and immediately assigned tasks to Paipa and Bilan: "You two hold back the four Beasts; Lai Ke and I will deal with Zha'aobo!"
"No problem!"
"Leave it to us!"
Hearing their replies, Goulu Zhaobo sneered coldly, "Heh, you really underestimate my Pokemon."
Huo La gave no reply, but was perfectly clear in his mind.
All four Ultra Beasts are above level 100; with Paipa and Bilan's strength, a direct confrontation is utterly unrealistic. However, as a brief distraction, relying on the power of the Time‑Space Dual Gods, the two can fully hold them.
Beside them, Lai Ke was concise, saying no more, and directly issued the attack command: "Celesteela, Elongated Horn!"
Celesteela's form shifted instantly, its body coalescing into an ultra‑long drill spinning at Rapid Spin, bearing a fierce piercing momentum straight toward Zha'aobo.
At this moment, Zha'aobo was almost entirely enveloped by Nekrozma's black energy, his body transformed into a half‑Beast form, with only his head retaining a human appearance.
The right arm that had just been smashed was already fully repaired, skin flawless, showing no sign of injury.
Celesteela's Elongated Horn, wrapped with the force of Rapid Spin, slammed hard into Zha'aobo's chest.
A harsh metallic screech rang out, countless sparks flew wildly, yet failed to pierce his body as expected. Zha'aobo twisted deftly, the Elongated Horn grazing his side.
In that instant, Huo La commanded Palutchi, flinging two Spacial Rends in succession.
The spatial blades originally aimed straight at Zha'aobo's front suddenly altered their trajectory, instantly teleporting to both sides of his body, each targeting his head with a precise slash, the attack exceedingly cunning.
Zha'aobo was momentarily dazed, but thanks to Nekrozma's empowerment granting him extreme reaction speed, he instantly activated Instant Teleportation, flashing a few meters away, barely evading the lethal ambush.
The next second, the two Spacial Rends missed and collided, a violent explosion roared, and shockwaves swept all directions.
Zha'aobo's complexion darkened completely, his voice icy and cutting: "I underestimated you; I didn't expect you to act so decisively, each move aiming to take my life."
"Since that's the case, I need not hold back."
Before the words finished, he activated Instant Teleportation again, his figure flickering and suddenly appearing beside Huo La.
His both fists, infused with Nekrozma's raging energy, bearing destructive force, slammed straight at Huo La.
Huo La, being merely mortal flesh, would suffer severe injury or even death if those two punches landed solidly.
In the critical moment, his reaction was swift, and he shouted, "Palutchi, Take Down!"
Palutchi surged forward in an instant, violently swinging its body, using its hard head to firmly block Zha'aobo's charged punches, staunchly stopping the lethal onslaught.
At the moment Palutchi blocked the attack, Lai Ke and Celesteela's support arrived just in time.
Now Zha'aobo and Huo La were extremely close; launching a strong attack recklessly could easily harm Huo La.
Celesteela could only opt for a safe approach, forcefully firing a barrage of Leech Seeds. Countless seeds shot through the air, all landing on Zha'aobo, instantly bursting into swaths of emerald light.
The moment the green light enveloped his body, the parasitic ability took effect, crazily draining Zha'aobo's internal energy.
The continuous flow of power was stripped away; Zha'aobo's complexion instantly grew grim. He dared not stay in the fight, immediately triggered Instant Teleportation, flashing away to a distant open space.
Huo La, seeing this, immediately seized the point and shouted, "He is deeply bound with Nekrozma as one; this energy‑draining attack will also consume his own power!"
After speaking, he lifted his hand, produced a Hisui‑style Pokeball; a flash of light revealed a Hisui Thunderbolt Ball, which gently floated and landed before him.
"I'll distract him," Huo La ordered quickly, "You find the right moment, use Final Drain, and directly siphon his life force!"
"Want to drain my life force? Heh, do you even have that ability!" Goulu Zhaobo snarled, his eyes boiling with mad fury, "Lunala, come join the battle!"
He raised his hand and flung an Ultra Ball; a dark‑blue stream of light burst, and a mysterious ethereal massive silhouette slowly rose above the battlefield.
It resembled a night bat, its form elegant yet exuding extreme mystery.
The broad wings' edges were inlaid with brilliant golden moon arcs; at the forked tips hung several same‑colored cross‑star glints, gently fluttering and sparkling.
The small head was cradled by a towering cape collar, resembling a noble vampire of the night.
The crown was covered by a deep indigo expanse, with tiny constellations swirling, vast and mysterious.
The body's core emitted a faint yet profound light, quietly pulsing with the immense power unique to the Moon Beast, and an intangible pressure instantly enveloped the arena.
