Chapter 274: Four-Times Counter—I'm Done Playing!

"Not coming out, huh? Fine, then you just stay in there!"

"Aegislash, play it a tune of East Wind Breaks!"

Shield and blade ground against each other, wave after wave of grating metallic sound spreading outward.

The audience couldn't take it and covered their ears, let alone the Super Gengar taking the brunt of it.

It was seen popping out of the shadows, clutching its head with an expression of agony and irritation.

Aegislash naturally wouldn't miss this chance—the shadow morphed into a greatsword and slashed over, with outstanding effect!

"Damn it, that cheap trick again!"

"So what if it's a cheap trick? Used well, it's often the key to breaking the deadlock!"

Aegislash's performance continued, while Super Gengar ran wild across the field, enduring the noise torture while also having to dodge the shadow's pursuit—driving it absolutely mad!

"Dark Pulse!"

After dodging the shadow's attack once more, Super Gengar raised a hand and blasted out a shockwave.

"Dodge it! Keep the metallic sound going!"

"Shadow Ball!"

"Dodge it! Keep the metallic sound going!"

"Shadow sneak attack!"

Super Gengar was once again slashed to the ground!

Earlier it had been Super Gengar hiding within the shadows, leaving Aegislash helpless against it.

Now it was Aegislash ceaselessly generating noise in the air, infuriating Super Gengar into leaping about in rage.

The reversal of the situation was truly swift!

"Super Gengar, burrow underground!"

Super Gengar dove into the ground, and at last the world fell silent!

"You planning to just stay in there and not come out?"

"No idea, that noise is killing me!"

"Fine! Aegislash, keep going!"

Wave after wave of noise—and before Li Gui could fall first, it was the audience that couldn't take it anymore!

"Ah~ I'm going crazy! Can you stop?"

"Bai Jing, have a heart!"

"This isn't a battle, it's tormenting us!"

"Referee, don't just stand there—call him for a foul!"

The referee was annoyed too, but this was a normal match; he had no grounds to intervene.

He couldn't exactly make a rule banning sound-based moves, could he?

"Contestant Bai Jing, if possible please don't spam moves like that—it'll only waste your Pokémon's stamina!"

Surely I can at least give a warning, right?

Fine, having drawn the crowd's wrath, Bai Jing had no choice but to have Aegislash stop.

At that moment Super Gengar suddenly burst out from underground, closing in on Aegislash at extreme speed.

It was a sneak attack—a first-strike move combined with a sure-hit technique.

After swatting Aegislash flying with one claw, Super Gengar pressed the pursuit relentlessly, a ghostly glint flickering in its eyes.

It was going to use Hypnosis again!

If it got hit by another combo, Aegislash would probably be done for!

"Phantom Force!"

A strange dimension opened and swallowed Aegislash inside, letting it dodge Super Gengar's pursuit and Hypnosis.

But perhaps because it had chased too closely, when the strange dimension closed, Super Gengar failed to brake in time and charged right in along with it.

Bai Jing was dumbfounded!

Li Gui was dumbfounded!

Everyone was dumbfounded!

Chasing the opponent into the strange dimension opened by Phantom Force?

This had never happened before!

"What is this supposed to be?"

"What will happen inside?"

"How should I know!"

"As far as any record goes, this has never happened before!"

Everyone was immensely curious, perking up to follow the subsequent developments.

The strange dimension opened on the other side, Aegislash poked out—and then that was that, the portal of the strange dimension closed.

"Where's my Super Gengar?"

Li Gui was completely baffled!

Right—why hadn't Super Gengar come out?

"Could it have been stranded in the strange dimension?"

"No way? Then wouldn't it never be able to come back?"
