[Pokemon] Late Autumn

"It's overheating!"

Xiaozhi, who was watching the battle nervously, made a fist. He was very confident in Shenqiu's attack, "This is absolutely no problem!"

The hot energy seemed to burn the surrounding air. Xiaoyao, who was sitting nearby and watching the battle, wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the terrifying power of Heiluga on the field in amazement.

Shen Qiu and Hei Lujia...they became stronger again in a place she didn't know about.

Xiaoyao looked at Shen Qiu, who was looking serious and frowning on the sidelines, and lowered his head with complicated emotions.

When they met for the first time, she clearly felt that Late Qiu was standing in front of her that she could see - but this time, she felt that she could never catch up with him.

If it were me who was standing there now... I'm afraid there would be no way to fight against my father's leave-seeking king, right?

But strangely, she didn't feel discouraged.

As long as you see such a bright figure and high momentum, even in front of your father and such a powerful leave king, it can still shine with such dazzling brilliance——

"...!"

Xiaoyao was startled by the sudden loud noise on the battlefield. She quickly looked over, but her eyes widened in disbelief.

Useless? !

After the smoke and dust dispersed, the Leave King roared, tore off the flames covering his body, stretched out his long arms, and hammered his chest hard.

Shenqiu knew very well that this action meant that the leave king had become angry, and his opponent's behavior had completely activated him from his lazy state.

Shen Qiu raised her eyes and met the leave king's sharp eyes, and she couldn't help but take a breath.

——It is a long-honed and tense sense of pressure.

"The King of Leave is not easy to deal with."

Qianli shook his head slightly, then glared and shouted, "Arm hammer!"

The King of Leave clenched his fists, and his thick and powerful forearms were about to hit Heiluga in the blink of an eye. Fortunately, Heilu's acceleration was not slow and he immediately dodged away, allowing the King of Leave to punch away.

The leave king did not give up, but suddenly changed his posture and slammed his arm to the ground - the ground shook violently because of the huge fluctuations. With the leave king as the center, circles of ripples continued to spread around, and it was shocking. A large-scale attack that covers the entire field regardless of direction!

Calm down, you have to calm down now!

Late Qiu stood up straight, calmed down in the aftermath, and gently touched Heiluga's Poke Ball on his waist with his right hand.

Warmth heat spreads from the fingers, along with a kind of power rising from the heart.

"Run over," she said.

Hei Lujia had never doubted any of Shen Qiu's words. He just stood firm and regardless of the large shaking on the ground, he suddenly jumped directly onto the head of the King of Leave!

It's now!

Heilu bared his sharp teeth, and the powerful flames spurted from his mouth were like a blow to the head. A sea of ​​​​fire spread out in an instant and swept towards the King of Leave below.

The jet of flames hit directly, but the King of Leave seemed to be unaware of the pain and did not dodge at all. Instead, he tried to attack Heiluga in mid-air.

"Use the flame vortex on yourself——"

To be on the safe side, Shenqiu decided to let Heiluga add a protective shell to himself.

The blazing flames seemed to have life, and were "pierced" by Heiluga like a layer of armor. The black fur is covered with a shell of crimson blazing flames. From a distance, Heiluga seems to be a messenger coming out of hell.

The armor of flames makes Heiluga more majestic. Not only does it relatively offset some of the impact, but the burning air around him will also cause the King of Leave who attacks directly to be burned by this layer of flames.

"Flame...Hagoromo?"

I don't know what happened, but such words popped up in Xiaoyao's mind.

"What an appropriate name!" Yasha's eyes lit up.

The leave-seeking king, who was severely heated by the flames, finally stopped his movements. He covered his hot head and staggered back a few steps in pain. As a result, he failed to control his center of gravity and sat directly on the ground.

The ground shook violently, and Heiluga, who was wearing a flame robe, jumped away instantly, but if you look closely, you can see that he was out of breath and very tired.

The consumption is too great.

Although he was already at the end of his strength, Hei Lujia still slightly curled his lips when he saw that the leave king on the other side was not in a good state.

Realizing that the battle should be fought quickly, Shen Qiu did not let go of the good opportunity now, and decisively asked Hei Lujia to immediately go up and hit the target: "Spray flames!"

Hei Lu took a deep breath and used all his strength to control the gushing flames to cover the King of Leave, but the King of Leave remained motionless, letting the flames burn him bit by bit.

He was clearly being attacked, but that stern and determined look in his eyes seemed to be being tickled...? !

...She is truly a rough-skinned and thick-skinned leave-seeking king. She is sure that Heiluga's attack is indeed effective, but it can only be like this because the opponent is too strong.

The attack is so powerful, and the endurance is also very good. If there is any shortcoming, it may be the characteristic called laziness. If this characteristic is replaced by anything else, the leave king's strength is simply immeasurable.

When the flames burning on his body dissipated, the King of Leave took a few breaths, and then suddenly frowned.

Lilac poison flashed across its body.

The intrusion of toxins made the Leave King very impatient. The guy opposite him looked like he was facing a fierce and powerful confrontation with him, but in fact, he was using the poisonous mist and the toxins hidden in the flames to eat away at his physical strength bit by bit. This feeling made him feel that he had no strength at all. But he couldn't do it, it was like a punch hitting cotton.

The King of Leave was not as indifferent as he appeared. He took a few deep breaths while staring at the thin vicious dog opposite, as if he was about to fall down in the next second.

"Sludge bomb!"

"It's over. Earthquake!"

Being hit by the mud ball containing dangerous toxins, the King of Leave let out a roar, endured the pain and jumped up, and unexpectedly hit Heiluga directly in front of him. The strong force and violent shock wave directly shattered the floor. It opened, revealing the broken clods of soil below.

The sharp clods of earth were violently shaken and flew up from the ground. However, Heiluga had almost no strength to dodge at this time. He was thrown into the air by the clods of earth. The robe made of flames was also attacking powerfully. It turned into little sparks in the air and was consumed and dissipated. Hei Lujia watched helplessly as the leave king's huge fist came towards him, but he was unable to move his body to avoid it. In the end, he was punched directly into the ground, causing a burst of smoke and dust.

"Heiluga——"

Even the air became bitter, the dust and rusty blood mixed together, which was not pleasant at all. Hei Lujia felt that the world in front of him had turned into a mirror that had been severely shattered. Every twisted and bizarre fragment seemed to be trying its best to destroy his will. There was a deafening roar beside his ears, and the world was spinning. The vision, the sights cast from all directions seemed to be pressing heavily on the broken body, and it could hardly breathe.

Late Qiu's face turned extremely pale in an instant, and he felt that the blood in his whole body was frozen with coldness. She called out to Heiluga urgently, clenching her fists tightly and letting her nails dig into her flesh. She used the pain and all her rationality to suppress her desire to step forward and take the scarred vicious dog off the field.

Except for the first time she woke up in the Dragon's Hometown...she had never seen Heiluga suffer such serious injuries.

Uncontrollable panic took over her entire mood.

She felt her whole body trembling, and when fear crept into her eyes, she realized that the world in front of her had turned scarlet, and only the black part was so eye-catching. His soul seemed to leave his body bit by bit, crossing time and space, and pounced directly on Heiluga's body, sluggishly and silently scanning Heiluga's body inch by inch with his own eyes.

"Kuruga..."

She wanted to raise her hand, but found that her body was frozen in place like a sculpture. At this moment, the control of her limbs no longer belonged to her, but to someone else.

Heiluga's eyelids moved.

As if she was aware of it, Shen Qiu suddenly woke up and even looked at Hei Lujia with caution.

...Is someone calling me?

What's wrong with me?

Why is there no strength in my whole body...?

He felt that he was about to lose consciousness, but an inexplicable force supported Heiluga to open his eyes with great difficulty, and what he saw was a perspective rotated 90 degrees.

A few short seconds seemed like centuries had passed. The world resumed its flow after pressing the pause button. Heiluga squinted his eyes and carefully identified the situation in front of him.

In the blurry world, the huge figure of the Leave King stood not far in front of him, staring at it expressionlessly.

Why, with that look...?

Am I weak?

No... I haven't fallen down yet, I'm still fighting... I must stand up——

absolute! You absolutely can’t fall here——! ! !

Even though his limbs were already trembling, Heiluga straightened up little by little and glared fiercely at the leave-seeking king opposite.

Yasha's eyes widened and she stared at the center of the field without blinking. She even couldn't help but hold her breath, for fear that her breathing would disturb Heiluga who was struggling to persist. Even Qianli Yi, who was on the opposite side, froze on the spot for a moment and waved his hand to ask the King of Leave not to attack for the time being.

Heiluga's eyes turned bright red as if soaked in blood. He stared at the King of Leave with red eyes, raised his head and roared high, as if to vent his emotions.

Shen Qiu opened her mouth, but felt like she couldn't say anything at this time.

"I can do it..."

Late Qiu felt that she vaguely heard what Hei Lujia wanted to say, but in the end she only heard a painful groan.

Heiluga wanted to look back at her again, but he didn't know that his limbs no longer had the strength to support him——

The scene in front of me seemed to have been slowed down deliberately. Frame by frame, the body of the vicious dog just fell straight and weakly to the side.

!!!

A pair of similar red pupils shrank in an instant.

Before Shenqiu could fully react, her legs had already made a move.

——The body of the black vicious dog was caught in a warm embrace before it hit the ground.

"Thank you, Hei Lujia..." Late Qiu lowered his eyes and hugged its bruised body, and his choked voice was very soft, "Just rest peacefully from now on."

"..."

Heiluga no longer had the energy to answer her, so he just closed his eyes weakly and returned to his elf ball.

As soon as she took Heiluga back, she saw a purple-black toxin flowing across the opponent's body like a snake on the huge body in front of her. King Qiu made a move, trying to relieve the pain caused by the poisoning by gritting his teeth——

Only to find that he can't seem to hold on any longer? !

Her heavy body fell directly in front of Shen Qiu, and the loud sound of contact with the ground made her immediately retreat reflexively.

She was startled when the King of Leave suddenly fell to the ground, but she immediately understood the reason. After all, if he hadn't been poisoned, the leave king would never have stopped here.

As the referee, Kenji stepped forward to check the status of the King of Leave, and immediately announced that Kuruga and the King of Leave had lost the ability to fight at the same time.

She didn't expect it to be a tie, but... Shenqiu sighed secretly in her heart. She could still feel that Mr. Qianli was letting go. What she saw today was definitely not the real strength of the King of Leave.

Her gentle and calm face hides a turbulent heart. Although Mr. Qianli is still very unpredictable-but now, she has seen the dawn of victory.

Shen Qiu lowered her eyes, turned around calmly, and stood back to her position without saying a word.

The condensed air began to flow.

Xiaoyao exhaled a long breath, feeling that he could hardly breathe just now: "Late Qiu, she is so, so powerful..."

"Heiluga actually tied with Dad's strongest leave king?!" Xiao Sheng couldn't believe it.

"Okay, there's one more! Come on, Late Autumn! Get the badge in one go!!" "Pi, pika!!"

Yasha finally breathed a sigh of relief and put her heart back in her throat just now.

Xiaozhi, the others, and Asha calmed down their frightened emotions, but found that Xiaogang next to them was strangely silent.

"What's wrong, Xiaogang? There's a solemn expression on his face..."

"Didn't you notice? The leave king only used two skills: earthquake and arm hammer from beginning to end."

Xiaogang shook his head and lowered his voice, "Mr. Qianli only showed the tip of the iceberg of the leave king's true strength in this battle."

Hearing what he said, Xiaozhi was stunned: "So, when you compete with me..."

"Someone just reacted." Xiao Sheng complained softly.

Xiaozhi suddenly became depressed, and Pikachu helplessly comforted the depressed Xiaozhi.

Asha turned her head and explained with a smile: "However, compared to winning the competition, Mr. Qianli prefers to train the promising trainers he is optimistic about - through battles."

"Late Qiu, I have seen all the growth of you and Heiluga."

Qianli suddenly spoke, causing everyone to look over.

Late autumn immediately looked up.

Seeing that Mr. Qianli seemed to be in a good mood at this time, Shenqiu remained silent, quietly waiting for the other party's next words.

"The use of the moves is very good. I can see how much effort you have put into it." Qianli expressed his approval to Shenqiu and the others, "I have to say, I seem to see Kuruga and you becoming one - Your bond makes me have high expectations for this alliance conference.”

She suddenly remembered what Mr. Qianli said to her about the trainer's style when she first challenged Chenghua Gym.

Xiaozhi, Asha, Qianli and Daigo...their styles are all obvious, but what about her own?

After challenging four gymnasiums, can she hand in her answer sheet in the battle with Qianli?

Lucario, who had just appeared on the stage, had already felt the ups and downs of Shen Qiu's mood. He nodded calmly to Shen Qiu, turned around, and looked straight at the hyperactive ape who came on stage again.

But how can a hyperactive ape who has been attacked be the opponent of Lucario who is in good condition?

While Asha and the others were still in a daze, Lucario, who had already mastered the use of wave missiles and other skills, had won the battle in three strokes, and even after it was over, his breathing was still very steady.

Is this the end?

Qianli himself did not expect that the battle would end so quickly. He shook his head helplessly, and when he looked at Shen Qiu again, a feeling of relief and anticipation filled his heart.

He was right.

"Late Qiu, congratulations on your victory."

Qianli walked over and handed the badge he had prepared long ago into the hands of Shen Qiu, with a relaxed smile on his face, "As proof of defeating Chenghua Gym, this Libra badge belongs to you."

"Thank you."

Perhaps the meaning of the Libra badge itself is the teaching that Mr. Qianli wants to convey to all challengers. Late Qiu carefully looked at the appearance of the "Libra" on it, and put the badge in his box with great care.

"Popular tactical policies and countermeasures against these tactics will change from region to region. However, strength does not only come from changes... A powerful trainer also has an unwavering will. As a trainer Home, whether you are happy or unwilling, no matter what mood you feel after the battle, it will become the source of your strength.

Winning is not an easy thing, but how to cherish and use this power... This is something that every trainer should keep in mind. "

"Go on."

Qianli clasped his hands on his chest, looking through the late autumn in front of him with a long and gentle gaze, looking towards the more distant future, "Let me see how far you can go with such power."
