The soul penetrates Xiaozhi and destroys Gou Hao at the beginning

A pair of enormous claws grabbed the Sirius around the waist, first releasing its grip and then clamping it tightly around Sirius's body, causing Sirius to hang upside down.

Immediately afterwards, the small claws on the armored warrior's torso turned purple due to the convergence of poison energy, and pierced fiercely into the skin of the Lionhead Sea Serpent. This move was extremely effective and caused explosive damage.

After all, the armored warriors have such high physical attack, while the western lion sea monsters have such low physical defense.

The West Lion Hair immediately let out a bloodcurdling scream and howl like a pig being slaughtered, in agony.

To make matters worse, Primarina's face was also tinged with purple light, clearly an additional effect of Poison Strike, causing it to become poisoned.

In this way, Primarina will lose one-eighth of its maximum HP each turn.

Even if the armored warriors stop fighting, it's fine as long as we wait for the West Lion Seaman to die from the poison.

With a thud, the armored warrior released his grip, and the Lionsea fell to the ground. Having barely escaped the clutches of the demon, the Lionsea did not immediately distance itself from the armored warrior. Instead, it collapsed to the ground, demonstrating the extent of the injuries it had just sustained.

But Guzmako had no intention of letting Lily's West Lionheart go so easily.

"Don't let it get away, keep using Poison Strike."

Upon hearing this, the armored warrior immediately acted, grabbing the griffin's tail with his left claw and lifting it high, holding it upside down and clamping it tightly.

At this moment, the Primus could only flail its body, but it was useless; it had no way to escape.

This scene is very similar to fish being hauled up from the sea by fishermen using large nets.

It could only thrash about, but to no avail.

Because no matter how much you struggle, you can't escape from the net or break it.

After capturing the Lionsea again, the armored warrior once again gathered poison energy with the small claws on his torso and unleashed another vicious poison attack, which was extremely effective and dealt explosive damage.

Taking two poison hits in a row caused the already low physical defense of the Primarina to drop its health bar rapidly, instantly turning it from full health to low health.

"Run away!"

Lillie, sitting in the audience, stood up anxiously and shouted.

Lisir: Is it that I don't want to escape? I want to escape too, but it's holding me so tightly, how can I escape? I can't escape! Stop just yelling, think of a way to help!

The other companions were also gritting their teeth and clenching their fists. Everyone wanted to help Shui Lian, but they couldn't think of a way. They could only silently cheer for Shui Lian in their hearts.

Water Lily's Eevee Nagisa was so angry that she gritted her teeth and was so anxious that she wanted to rush onto the field to bite the armored warrior to death and save Primarina, but fortunately she was stopped by the others.

"Armored warrior, continue using Poison Strike."

"West Lion Sea Ren, unleash the freezing wind."

Guzma wanted the armored warrior to deliver a third poison strike, to completely finish off the West Lion Sea People.

But the Western Lion-Sea Breeze exhaled a biting, icy wind that pierced the armored warrior's eyes. While the effect was minimal, the damage was more like scratching a wound.

But this was as uncomfortable as having sand in one's eye, causing the armored warrior to instinctively raise his claws to block the freezing wind, and the claw that had been gripping the Western Lion Seaman loosened its hold.

This allowed the West Lion Sea Serpent to finally break free from the armored warrior's restraints.

Having learned from the previous experience, this time even though he was exhausted, West Lion Seaman took the opportunity to quickly distance himself from the armored warrior.

"The West Lion Sea Serpent has finally managed to escape with great difficulty, but the poison has already begun to take effect in its body," Shi Kuang said.

Ash couldn't help but look at Guzma with a serious expression. This guy really knew Pokémon.

First, use Abyss Thrust to temporarily block the opponent's most proficient sound-based skills, and then use the highly effective Poison Strike to reduce the opponent's health.

Although Primarina managed to escape, Lana was at a huge disadvantage after these few rounds of combat.

Not only did you fail to inflict any effective damage on your opponent, but you also ended up with low health and poisoned. Even if the armored warrior stops attacking you, you, the West Lion Sea Bear, will still die from the poison on your own, and there's no way to cure it.

Now that Guzma and Gokuma have firmly grasped the battle situation, the chances of Lana and Lionheart turning the tide are probably very slim.

Guzma's armored warrior has the highly effective Poison Strike, but it seems Lana didn't teach Primarina the powerful STAB move Moonblast.

Otherwise, given Primarina's high special attack, two or three Moon Powers would be enough to take down the armored warrior.

Guzma seemed very dissatisfied with the armored warrior's decision to let the Lionheart escape, and immediately roared with a ferocious expression.

"What are you doing, armored warrior? Use the poison strike now!"

"West Lion Sea Ren, unleash the freezing wind."

The armored warrior concentrated poison energy into his claws and charged towards the Lionheart to launch an attack.

However, it was blocked by the freezing winds exhaled from the Primarina's mouth, resulting in poor effectiveness and minimal damage.

However, they successfully blocked the armored warrior's attack once again.

Furthermore, the chill permeated the air, obscuring the vision of both sides, who could only vaguely make out the shadows of their opponents.

Seeing that Shui Lian was gradually regaining her rhythm in the battle, everyone was genuinely happy for her.

“Very good, now we need to seal off the armored warriors’ movements first,” Kachi said excitedly.

"Calm down first, we'll definitely be fine if we take it one step at a time," Mamane said nervously.

"Go for it!" Mao shouted.

"West Lion Sea Man, unleash a jet of water."

Seeing that the battle situation was gradually turning in her favor, Lana tried to have Primarina counterattack.

There was no other way; Shui Lian had to defeat the armored warrior before the poison drained all of Sili Hai Ren's strength, or she would surely lose.

But just as the Western Lionhairen was about to make a move, the armored warrior burst out of the encirclement of cold air with lightning speed. Although its claws were frozen in ice, it easily shattered the ice binding its claws with a gentle tap, left claw striking right.

After being smashed, the claws, which had turned purple due to the convergence of poisonous energy, were revealed.

Its right paw shot out like an arrow, striking the lioness's belly squarely with remarkable effect.

It not only inflicted significant damage on Primarina, but also halted the Water Jet attack and suppressed Lani's attempt to retaliate—a triple win.

And at this point, Guzma and the armored warriors had completely taken control of the battle.

"That's amazing! The armored warrior used its shield to withstand the direct impact of the freezing wind!"

And it endured until the West Lion Sea Serpent revealed a weakness.

"What composure, what unwavering will!" Shi Kuang exclaimed in amazement.
