Chapter 964: Arena Tournament

~5 min read 924 words

"Flash Cannon!"

Under the rain curtain, Metagross flew across the sky. After dodging the giant water snake's physical bites several times, metallic luster gathered in front of its X-shaped structure, transforming into a Flash Cannon no less inferior to Archaludon, surging out.

Flash Cannon poured its power onto the giant water snake's body to its heart's content. A dent twice as large as the one created by the previous Thunder Punch appeared, then was repaired by the raindrops and energy in the rain curtain.

"Seemingly endless repair power, and a powerful body that cannot be shaken by either physical or special attacks..."

Dai Wu didn't understand.

Such a massive body naturally requires corresponding energy to drive it, and the energy for repair requires other parts.

It's not that some Pokémon can't achieve the effect of a giant water snake, it's just that doing so is simply thankless, and consuming energy doesn't increase combat power much.

Just like the giant water snake controlled by Milotic, its attack speed simply couldn't reach the high-speed flying Metagross.

In that case, attacking while maneuvering could outlast the rainy weather... and then, taking advantage of this Milotic's massive energy hitting the bottom, he could win!

Dai Wu saw hope for victory, took a long breath, and said in a deep voice, "Meteor Mash!"

Metagross was like a silver meteor piercing through the rain curtain, its powerful attack arriving at the giant water snake's head in an instant!

Boom—!

Water splashed, and a large pit appeared on the giant snake's head again, then was repaired again.

Seeing this, Dai Wu nodded calmly.

Very good, this way he could consume most of Milotic's energy, and according to observation, the giant water snake should only be able to perform physical biting attacks and not long-range attacks.

In this way, Metagross would be much easier to maneuver.

He could win!

Taking advantage of the momentum, Dai Wu ordered, "Once more, Meteor Mash!"

Metagross had already started to get familiar with the giant water snake's attack rhythm. Although this guy looked intimidating, it was actually quite clumsy.

Several data streams quickly flashed through its crimson pupils. Based on the giant water snake's movement trajectory, Metagross's brain had already simulated its next few actions.

Opening its mouth... next is the bite.

The most energy- and stamina-saving way to dodge... the moment it approaches the giant water snake's big mouth, side-stepping to the right will dodge it.

Wrapped in silver starlight, Metagross dragged a flame tail and broke through the rain curtain again, crashing toward the giant water snake!

On one side was a silver meteor falling from the sky, on the other was a giant beast with a hideous maw wide open. This scene was as magnificent and spectacular as a great war in mythology.

The giant water snake opened its maw as Metagross calculated. As the distance got closer—20 meters... 15 meters... 10 meters... 5 meters... Just as Metagross intended to move to the right to dodge the attack, the light that suddenly lit up in the giant water snake's mouth made its and Dai Wu's expressions suddenly stall.

"Eh—?"

"Metag...?"

The sky full of water curtains seemed to pour back into the giant water snake's mouth in an instant, and a deep blue water column compressed to the limit was sprayed out, rushing Metagross up into the clouds together!

Milotic had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. It knew the weakness of the giant water snake's clumsy attack speed very well. It had the confidence that it could instantly kill Metagross with one full-power strike, it just needed an opportunity.

With Metagross's flight speed, there should be no problem dodging long-range attacks.

Thanks to that "iron blockhead" in the team, it knew a little about this species and knew that once their excellent brains trusted a certain piece of data, they would execute it without hesitation.

Therefore, it chose to pretend to be a clumsy big guy who could only "melee" for a period of time. The effect was significant; Metagross was hooked.

The rainy weather was just about to end. All the energy gathered from the rain and the composition of the giant water snake was enough to instantly kill Metagross.

The giant water snake slowly dissipated, and Milotic looked up at the sky.

The thick dark clouds above were pierced by Milotic's attack, and the rain cleared!

Scattered water droplets fell.

Between them, a rainbow suddenly appeared, spanning the entire Ho-Oh Arena, beautiful and breathtaking.

And Metagross also fell from the sky at the same time, its silver-white body covered in scars and dust from hitting the ground.

"Meta... Metagross has lost the ability to battle. Modu University's second contestant, Dai Wu, has been defeated. The current arena tournament score... four to zero!"

The referee riding Aegislash leaned in, observed for a long while before trembling his lips and ruling the victory with a slight stutter.

The audience found that today, besides shock, there was only more shock.

They were almost turning into shock robots.

Su Hao, relying on a late-stage Professional-level Milotic, had swept through four of Modu University's Pokémon without a scratch. They really hadn't seen such a scene before...

Dai Wu recalled Metagross, looked at Su Hao with deep eyes, and sighed lightly.

This time, not only was he paralyzed by carelessness, but the strength gap between Milotic and Metagross was also an important factor in determining victory.

"The rainy weather was barely dragged past... next, it's up to you, Captain." ===== CHAPTER 965 =====
