Chapter 226

This Ninetales did not have high control over its own ability and could only passively absorb flames through it.

So... it couldn't stop.

The moment the incandescent white flame column touched Ninetales, it was drawn in by a mysterious force, broken down, and absorbed, becoming Ninetales's own boost.

Seeing that the Flamethrower he released was being absorbed, Incineroar and Su Hao were not the least bit anxious.

After all, their goal was to let Ninetales absorb the flames; the more it absorbed, the better.

At this moment, Incineroar gave a crooked smile, revealing a signature villainous grin.

Its fighting spirit was currently very high, and its mood was excellent.

If its energy storage was one unit, then Milotic-sister and Diancie-sister were one hundred and one thousand units.

Although Su Hao had told him that the energy storage of ordinary Elite-level Pokémon was only about 0.1 units.

But he would be panting after releasing just a few moves, whereas Diancie and Milotic threw moves around casually without caring about energy consumption at all.

And then there was Su Hao, who, despite being a human, had more energy storage than him!

From that day on, Incineroar had a dream!

To become a... to find an endless energy source and enjoy the feeling of energy being free!

Now, the youth-version backup hidden energy—Su Hao—spoke up, telling Incineroar to go all out, as he would replenish it.

With no more worries, Incineroar unleashed a massive amount of flame without restraint, enveloping Ninetales!

From Kong Mingliang's perspective, Ninetales had completely ignored Incineroar's all-out Flamethrower through its Flash Fire ability. He thought he was set; this sweep of two or three, and the adoration of the junior girls, was in the bag!

Ninetales had indeed absorbed the flames through its ability, but what Kong Mingliang couldn't see was the look of pain on Ninetales's face as it turned its back to him.

"Woo-woo-woo..."

【It's... already full, I can't absorb any more.】

Kong Mingliang couldn't understand Ninetales's language, but Su Hao could!

Not intending to show mercy, Su Hao directly commanded Incineroar to increase the intensity!

At this moment, Ninetales was completely swallowed by the incandescent white flames, its silhouette no longer visible.

While Kong Mingliang was still dreaming of sweeping two or three with his strengthened Ninetales, the explosion occurred.

Ninetales could no longer control the surrounding flames; the Flash Fire ability completely misfired. The uncontained, violent flames caused a massive explosion, and Ninetales, being in the center, bore the brunt of the damage.

Accompanied by Ninetales's painful cries, even someone as slow as Kong Mingliang realized something was wrong. Trembling and panicked, he shouted, "Ninetales, Ninetales, are you okay?"

The explosion of flames kicked up a gale, and a protective barrier automatically rose in front of Kong Mingliang, who was closer to Ninetales, to block the shockwave.

Su Hao was further away, so only a small shockwave carrying the gale swept past.

Su Hao blocked his eyes with one hand to keep out the dust and wind, and he couldn't help but sigh, "The wind is quite boisterous today..."

"Magby is unable to battle, Incineroar wins!"

"Challenger Su Hao, challenge successful!"

Su Hao chewed his gum with both hands in his jacket pockets, looking very relaxed.

On the opposite side, after Ninetales lost the ability to battle, Kong Mingliang only had one Normal-level Magby left.

Magby.

Following the virtue of respecting the old and loving the young, the model youth Su Hao only had Incineroar use 【Throat Chop】 to make Magby lose the ability to battle without even feeling it.

Kong Mingliang's expression was ashen. Relying on his Flash Fire Ninetales, he hadn't won easily against the opponent's Fire-type Pokémon; instead, he had been completely crushed.

And it was a total crushing of raw strength. From the speed and power Incineroar displayed when using Throat Chop on his Magby, he could imagine that his Ninetales would likely have had no power to resist it.

Moreover, this man had defeated Ninetales using only flames.

"Ku... it's my total defeat..."

Kong Mingliang recalled Magby, tears streaming down his face as he admitted his failure, and then ran out of the gymnasium in tears, ignoring his teacher's attempts to stop him.

According to the feedback from Incineroar, that incandescent white Flamethrower had consumed about 20% of Incineroar's energy storage.

Actually, having the big tiger engage in melee combat could have saved more energy to defeat Ninetales, but Su Hao didn't care.

With the recovery power of the Viridian Force and the life energy fused with the Aura, he could safely and boldly let Incineroar squander energy!

Revealing an innocent smile once again, Su Hao said very politely toward the preparation area of Rongcheng No. 1 High School, "Next."
