The soul penetrates Xiaozhi and destroys Gou Hao at the beginning

Upon hearing the verdict, Cross's face turned pale and he collapsed to the ground powerlessly.

Xiaozhi threw the Poké Ball and called out the Lizard King.

"This kid is a habitual offender, we must not be careless.

Lizard King, please help me keep an eye on him, as well as the two Fiery Roaring Tigers and the Mane Werewolf that have lost their ability to fight.

If they dare to run, they will be fugitives and will be charged with the crime of intentional escape. I will directly cut their necks with the leaf blade."

"Cha la!"

The Lizard King nodded, then placed the Leaf Blade around Cross's neck.

Seeing this, Xiaozhi felt relieved.

"Young man chosen by the rainbow feathers, go meet the Phoenix King and become the Rainbow Hero." said Master Fan.

"Okay, old man."

Xiaozhi took the Rainbow Feather and walked towards the Rainbow Rock, but was blocked by Machado.

Machado stood between Xiaozhi and the Rainbow Rock and hooked his finger at Xiaozhi.

"I see. You want to fight me to see if I'm worthy enough to fight the Phoenix King?"

Marchado nodded.

"Very well, I accept your challenge, Greninja. It's you, so get ready to fight."

"Kou Ga!"

"Greninja, this time our opponent is the mythical Pokémon Marshall. Its strength should not be underestimated. We must not be careless."

"Kou Ga!"

Greninja nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Let's go, Greninja, give it your all from the start!

I use small wisdom as my name, and use fetters as my guide,

Respond to my heart, and turn the bond into strength.

The power of bondage explodes at this moment.

Greninja, bond evolution!"

Satoshi's version of Greninja makes a domineering appearance!

Souji was stunned and Seiko was stunned by his handsomeness.

Feeling that Greninja's power was constantly soaring, Machado decisively chose to strike first and threw a shadow ball.

"Greninja, use Shadow Clone."

A bunch of Greninjas suddenly appeared in front of Machado and rushed towards him at the same time. The shadow ball released by Machado only knocked down one shadow clone.

Xiaozhi really laughed. Machado's characteristic is Technical Master, but Shadow Ball can't trigger this characteristic at all.

Not to mention that Machado has higher physical attack, what special attack skill does he have?

"Greninja, use a sneak attack on the vital points."

Machado used its unique skill, Shadow Steal, and successfully found Greninja's true form and sneaked into its shadow.

This caused the other shadow clones to disappear instantly.

However, because Greninja has no ability upgrades, Machado directly came out and attacked Greninja.

After being punched, Greninja endured the pain, drew out the evil sharp blade with his backhand, and slashed it down fiercely, knocking Machado away.

Shadow Steal is an interesting skill, as it first steals all of the opponent's improved physical attack, physical defense, special attack, special defense, and speed abilities, and then attacks the opponent to cause damage.

You can only steal up to the upper limit, and the remaining enhanced ability changes will not be stolen.

The attack will first remove your enhancement and then hit you, so that the damage will be higher. It will be useless even if your double defense is +6.

For example,

Before using Shadow Thief:

Machado's ability changes are: Physical Attack +3, Special Attack -1.

The opponent's ability changes are: Physical Attack +4, Physical Defense -1, Special Attack +2, Special Defense -1, Speed ​​+2.

After using Shadow Steal:

Machado's ability changes: Physical Attack +6, Special Attack +1, Speed ​​+2.

Opponent's ability changes: Attack +1, Defense↓-1, Special Defense -1.

Very simple.

Back to the present.

Feeling the powerful force of Greninja, Machado did not pretend anymore and opened fire directly.

He reached out and took out a turquoise diamond-shaped crystal with a pattern of Machado's face on it. It was Machado Z!

And started street dancing on the spot,

Oh no, it's the Z-style dance moves.

This is an exclusive Z move from Shadow Thief, the Seven-Star Soul-Stealing Kick, with a power of up to 195.

Having obtained the Z-power, Machado will use all his strength to hit his opponent with a series of punches and kicks.

On the top of the Tianqing Mountain, which was shrouded in thick fog, Machado's scarlet eyes lit up, and the ghostly energy around him surged like ink, and the purest crystal burst out with faint blue lightning between its claws.

Its roar pierced through the fog, and its legs were wrapped in dark purple cyclones that tore through the air. Every step it took left a deep mark on the ground, and its figure instantly split into seven afterimages, swooping down towards Satoshi and Greninja like a meteor.

"This skill is... Machado's exclusive Z skill - Seven-Star Soul-stealing Kick!!!"

It can actually use Z moves without a trainer, it really deserves to be a mythical beast.

Be careful, Greninja, fight with all your might!

Greninja, use the Gigantamax Flying Water Shuriken."

Xiaozhi's pupils suddenly lit up with the same green light as Greninja's, and the power of bond flowed between the man and the frog like a golden stream.

Greninja raised his hands high, swirling and condensing the water flow. The light blue water energy gathered in his palms and formed a huge flying water shuriken a hundred meters long.

The water at the edge of the flying water shuriken emitted tiny white lights due to its high-speed rotation, and even the surrounding thick fog was rolled into a spiral airflow.

At the same time, the seven-star afterimages were already before his eyes. The first shadow kicked Greninja's side with a sharp sound of breaking the wind.

Greninja did not dodge or evade, and swept the huge water shuriken horizontally. The moment the water collided with the shadow, a deafening roar broke out, and a circular energy shock wave exploded in the white mist.

The second and third afterimages followed one after another, attacking its lower body and head respectively.

Greninja suddenly raised the flying water shuriken above its head, and the high-speed rotating water formed a natural barrier to block it. The shadow kick kicked on the water curtain.

Every collision caused splashes of water several meters high, but it was never able to break through the defense of the water flow.

When the attacks of the fourth, fifth, and sixth afterimages were blocked, Machado's real body suddenly emerged from the last afterimage. The ghost energy condensed in his legs surged, and he launched an attack with enough power to shatter the earth.

Greninja's flying water shuriken was instantly dyed with a mixture of gold and blue, its rotation speed increased sharply, and even tiny traces of spatial distortion appeared on the edge of the water flow.

"Kou Ga!"

Greninja roared and pushed forward the huge flying water shuriken, colliding head-on with Machado's Seven-Star Soul-stealing Leg.

In an instant, dazzling blue light and dark purple light burst out on the top of the mountain. The shock wave shattered all the surrounding rocks and completely blew away the lingering thick fog.

At the same time, the flying water shuriken suddenly split into dozens of small water blades, attacking Mashado from all directions.

Mashado's pupils shrank, and he was forced to retract some of his energy for defense.

However, at this moment, the flying water shuriken in front of him instantly broke through his defense.
