Chapter 229

【Misty: It's actually a Legendary Pokémon, won't Ash and the others be unable to get past!】

【Cynthia: Don't worry, this Lucario is very strong; with it there, delaying Regirock won't be a problem.】

Cynthia rested her chin on her hand.

She wasn't worried about the safety of Ash and his group.

If anything happened to Ash now, there wouldn't be an Ash five years later.

It's just... is it really that simple?

The bond between you and Lucario must have started to be established from this time, right.

I'm really curious.

Ash, don't let me down.

Cynthia tapped her red lips lightly.

Her eyes sparkled with curiosity.

……

In the scene—

After landing, Regirock didn't play fair.

It directly lifted the off-road vehicle in front of it high up.

Then it threw it directly at Ash and his group.

This was a disaster for Jessie and James, who were hiding in the trunk!

The huge force made their scalps tingle; they wanted to run out but didn't dare.

Because Regirock was right in front of them!

And, seeing that its first attack missed, Regirock immediately used Hyper Beam!

Hyper Beam! This is a major move of the Normal type!

Its power is as high as 150!

The move most liked by a certain famous Dragon-type Champion!

The orange light of the Hyper Beam condensed in front of Regirock.

In just an instant.

The Hyper Beam, carrying a power that made one feel despair, shot toward the direction where Ash was.

"Lucario, use Aura Sphere!"

Seeing the incoming Hyper Beam.

Ash subconsciously commanded Lucario beside him.

Hearing Ash's voice.

Lucario didn't hesitate at all; it placed its hands at its waist and fired an Aura Sphere at the Hyper Beam shot by Regirock.

Regirock is a Legendary Pokémon.

The power of the Hyper Beam released by it is very astonishing.

But even so.

The azure Aura Sphere and the orange-red Hyper Beam became entangled.

One would have thought the Aura Sphere would be suppressed without any power to fight back.

However.

Lucario's Aura Sphere actually pushed the Hyper Beam released by Regirock back.

And that azure Aura Sphere slammed fiercely into Regirock's body.

The huge impact actually knocked Regirock backward onto the ground.

Taking advantage of this gap.

Lucario quickly unleashed its Aura and took Ash and the others to flee in the direction of the Tree of Beginning.

【Brandon: This... how is this possible! This is Regirock, one of the three Legendary Giants! Its power was actually blocked by Lucario's Aura Sphere! How is this possible!】

【Steven: Mr. Brandon, please calm down! I understand how you feel, just like when I find a beloved stone and it suddenly shatters. You also have to know that this Lucario is the attendant of the legendary Aura Guardian! It is by no means that simple!】

【Brandon: No! Regirock's move is wrong! If it were my Regirock releasing this Hyper Beam, the power would definitely not be like this!】

【Lance: Could it be because this Regirock is not by Regigigas's side, and its energy cannot be replenished?】

【Korrina's Grandfather: There is such a possibility, but no matter the situation. The strength of this Lucario is definitely not ordinary; perhaps saying it's a Champion is underestimating it; this is definitely a Pokémon that can rival gods.】

【Cynthia: That's right, it is worthy of the name of Aura Guardian. But if we were to really compete, I still think my Lucario is the strongest.】

【Ash: So amazing! I didn't expect Lucario to be so powerful!】

【Leon: But Ash's performance also surprised me; he was actually able to command this Lucario. It seems that in the various events before, Ash has already been recognized by Lucario.】

Leon's words made everyone's eyes light up.

It seems that is the case.

Didn't Gary say before that Ash, because he couldn't command a Charizard, ended up in the top 16 at the Indigo Plateau Conference.

And the Ash currently being livestreamed on the light screen is definitely not old.

That is to say, Ash, in just one year.

has already reached the level of being able to command Lucario.

This improvement in Trainer level is too shocking!

This growth rate.

"Monster" is no longer enough to describe it!

……

In the scene—

After blocking Regirock's attack.

Lucario took Ash and the others to weave through the valley.

After taking a long detour, the group finally hid in a cave.

The crisis was temporarily resolved.

"There's a Regirock around the Tree of Beginning? Why did it attack us?"

It was also at this time.

Ash finally asked the question in his heart.

'This is a warning; it wants us to stay away from the Tree of Beginning.'

"I see, is Regirock the guardian of the Tree of Beginning?"

'Probably.'

After entering the cave.

Lucario unleashed its Aura to the fullest.

It only took a while.

A ray of light shone down from the front of the cave.

Under Lucario's lead, the group moved toward the direction where the light was shining.

Until they walked out of the cave.

A beautiful scene that left people in awe appeared before their eyes.

Mountains, streams.

Countless Pokémon lived among them.

There were even many ancient Pokémon living in this area.

Omanyte and Omastar playing in the stream.

Armaldo stretching its neck to eat tree fruit.

The scene at this moment was full of vitality.

"Lingering and forgetting to return" is not enough to describe everyone's mood at this moment.

The Tree of Beginning protects these Pokémon to survive here.

No matter how much the outside world changes, this place still maintains the most primitive ecology.

The ancient Pokémon also live as usual.

Modern Pokémon also blend in.

They together constructed a beautiful ecological scroll. ===== CHAPTER 230 =====
