Pokémon: Hoenn Storm

Chapter 552 Sets the tone for the competition of the new generation (55)

The first battle between the six favorites ended with a score of 6 to 5 after all their trump cards were revealed. In the post-war interview, the Four Heavenly Kings Genji and Bonny came to the scene and personally judged the battle: a wonderful battle at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings.

In front of a group of reporters, the two current kings expressed their expectations for the two kings to challenge.

Huayue responded on the spot that he, who had been eliminated from the finals, was planning to go to the championship.

Before leaving, he looked at Lai who was waiting for them in the corner, nodded slightly, and said loudly:
"Before Rai wins the championship and launches a challenge to the king, I will walk out on the road of championship and launch my own challenge to the king."

He, who has the badge of the Eighth Daodao Gym, and Naqi, who has the gym certificate, are both qualified to make such a declaration, and no one will doubt their strength.

Compared to the Caiyou Tournament, where the new generation competes with each other, the news that the new generation of strong men are going to compete with the older generation of the Four Heavenly Kings is of course more of a gimmick. And such an arrogant trainer of the Heavenly Kings actually recognized Lai Better than himself and Naqi who defeated him, this undoubtedly became the biggest hot spot.

Following the footage of the live broadcast, the viewers in front of the TV learned about the incident immediately, and then, within an hour or two, overwhelming reports swept Fengyuan, even if the league's official TV station and media deliberately downplayed it and used water as a warning. The media platforms led by the two major TV stations Jing and Zi Jin still made it a big deal, which made the chairman of the alliance headquarters very dissatisfied.

······
After making the declaration, Huayue didn't even eat, and ran non-stop towards the southern section of the road to championship. Like Daigo before Yu Yu, he would start his own trial of the road to championship.

Inspired by him, Takahiro and Hills said goodbye to several people and started their own experience from the northern section of the championship road.

Shortly after the three people left, in the afternoon of the same day, the second quarter-final match between Lai and Furong was about to begin.

Although I don’t understand why the league put the two focus games on the same day, the spectators who bought tickets were still happy to see it. They started waiting after the game in the morning, had a simple lunch, and continued to watch in the stands. Looking forward to it.

At the same time, in the restaurant, Naqi was reservedly accepting the compliments from three friends, although one of them might not be so sincere.

Miss Cortner, a future development leader who did not want to reveal her occupation and name, tried her best to help Hanayuki, but in the end she failed to get what she wanted. She could only look at Naki who was bullying her a few days ago and was complacent. Earth and Lai are in love with each other.

After taking a big bite and biting off a piece of cake, Cortner was not even interested in chewing bubble gum, so she could only grit her teeth secretly.

"Lai, which Pokémon are you going to use for the next round?" Na Qi asked curiously, looking at her boyfriend with her big eyes flickering.

Lai gently scratched Naqi's cheek and said with a smile: "How about letting me keep a little bit of mystery?"

"Oh, that's okay, I just have to pity little Furong." Her cheeks bulged slightly, and she pushed Lai's dishonest fingers away. Na Qi groaned for a while, but she still graciously agreed.

Lila couldn't stand it and reminded: "You two should stop it in moderation."

"That's right, in broad daylight, in public, what are you doing?!" After finding a helper, Kotna immediately became energetic and helped again and again, but when she saw Naqi's glare, her momentum immediately dropped by three points.

Seeing this scene, Lai also understood what happened to the two people who disappeared that day, and smiled without saying a word.

【I want to play too! 】

Jirachi suddenly jumped out of the elf ball, stretched out his little hand, and pinched Rai's earlobe.

"We are talking about the battle, little Jirachi. Hey, do you want to participate in this battle with Fleur?"

Lai used his fingertips to scrape the belly of the unwilling little guy out of habit, and suddenly he had an idea.

【Battle?Is not fun.】

Little Jirachi expressed little interest.

"Then I'll give you two, oh no, let's give you one, how about a toy?"

Lai knew the little guy's temperament well and immediately began to seduce him.

【two!I want two!You have to choose yourself! 】

The toys I bought earlier in Green Ridge have now lost the favor of the wishing star and are lying silently in Naqi's backpack. She has long wanted two new toys.

"The greedy little guy." Lai took the little guy from his shoulder to his arms and gently poked its cheek with his finger.

【hey-hey!It’s settled!Two toys! 】

Jirachi's little hand hugged Rai's finger tightly. It had learned to draw the hook a long time ago. Although it didn't quite recognize which one was which, it still grabbed each one. It was already familiar with cheating, no matter what it was. No matter what request they make, Lai and Naqi will eventually agree to it.

"I said, little Jirachi, do you want to go back to Cournoye with me? I will also buy you toys." Kotna, who was lying on the table, teased Jirachi with great interest.

【don't want.I won’t play with you, okay! 】

Jirachi answered simply, made a face, and then swallowed the gummy handed over by Naqi in one gulp, chewing it with happiness on his face. "Wow! I'm so hurt!"

Cortna screamed exaggeratedly and fell down on the table.

[You are such a big man, stop crying, I will play with you for a while! 】

Jirachi fluttered down in front of Cortna, patted her on the head, and then was hugged unexpectedly, and she rubbed her little face hard before letting go.

【fraud! 】

Touching the slightly red cheeks, Jirachi threw herself into Naqi's arms.

······
Soon after, a dejected Cortna and a arrogant Jirachi sitting on top of Naqi appeared in the player stand in the center of the battlefield.

"It's time for you to go down, Jirachi."

Gently stroking Jirachi's head, Naqi was not as brave as when she taught the little one a lesson just now.

【oh!Then I’m going down, Naqi! 】

Only then did Jirachi remember that he was going to have a fight to earn toys. He slowly floated up and found Lai, who finally did not stand out this time, but stayed in the waiting area down to earth.

The reason is simple. He is the only one in the waiting area on this side of the battlefield this afternoon. If he doesn't stay here, the staff will be in trouble.

"coming?"

Looking at Jirachi who belatedly realized that he wanted to be cute, Rai stretched out his hand and let it fall.

【hey-hey!I'm coming!Who to hit?How many hits? ! 】

Jirachi imitated Kagetsu while showing off his non-existent muscles.

"Contestant Lai, it's your turn to play, this way please."

Just as he was about to tease Jirachi, the staff's voice came from not far away, and in the player tunnel on the other side, Fleur had already appeared, waving her hands to the supporters who had more fans than Lai. Say hello.

"Okay, thank you, let's go, Jirachi."

With a slight nod, Rai strode towards the entrance passage, while Jirachi sat obediently on his shoulders, swaying.

······
"Old man, what do you think of this?"

Jingzi and Gat sat tensely in their seats without saying a word. Bonnie didn't bother to look at them and simply stood up and walked to the edge to stand with Yuanji.

"Two or three, if you're serious."

Genji thought about it and gave a number.

"Does this little girl Furong have the strength to kill two or three? I think it would be difficult for Naqi and Huayue to do it."

Bonnie was slightly surprised, and looked at the old man next to her with suspicion, deeply doubting whether he was really an old fool who was going to retire, and by the way, he would become the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings.

"I mean, send two or three, if he's more serious, like the three that haven't appeared yet. Oh, and there's a little mascot, it's not weak either."

Genji turned his head and said seriously. After thinking for a while, he added: "After today, the new generation of little guys should be able to see the gap."

······
"Let us invite you to contestant Lai, who defeated Dara, who owned the legendary Pokémon Frozen Bird, 6-0 in the last round. He was a strong contender who declared the championship half a year ago!"

Before Lai even appeared on the stage, during the host's introduction, the audience, who had whetted their appetite for the fierce battle in the morning, cheered one after another.

"I wonder what kind of Pokémon Lai will send in this round of competition. Are they all new faces appearing for the first time? I believe it's not just me, but many viewers are also looking forward to it! Ah, dear viewers Look, sitting on Player Lai’s shoulders is the fantasy Pokémon, Jirachi!”

On the way out, Lai looked calm, extended his hand to say hello to Furong in the distance, and walked onto the battle stage without looking back.

Today's match, he will set a tone for the competition.
