Pokémon: What should I do? My father-in-law always wants to tear me apart

Xia Nantian looked up in the direction Eliza pointed, and saw a majestic steel-armored crow flapping its wings and flying towards him in the blue sky.

The feathers on its body seemed to be made of steel, sparkling with a cold metallic luster under the sunlight.

A man sat upright on the back of the Steel Crow.

Like Eliza, he had brilliant blond hair and lake-blue eyes, but his face was shocking.

His face was crisscrossed with hideous scars, like cruel marks carved by the years, and his lifeless right eye added a bit of solemnity and vicissitudes to his appearance.

"Xia Nantian, you bastard!"

The man's voice was filled with anger and hatred, falling straight down from the sky.

He looked down at the devastating scene on the sea, clenched his teeth, his cheeks slightly bulging from the force, his eyes full of anger.

"elder brother!"

The moment Eliza saw the man, her originally dim eyes instantly brightened up, and she was filled with joy, as if she had found absolute support and finally a backbone.

Xia Nantian stared at the man with his eyes half-closed. A hint of complex emotions flashed across his eyes, but disappeared in an instant.

Then, the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a meaningful smile, and he slowly stretched out his hand.

However, the next second, the seemingly friendly gesture suddenly changed, with a middle finger raised straight up.

"Yo, long time no see. You defeated opponent."

His tone was somewhat teasing, yet also revealed an unquestionable arrogance.

This man is Kane Parker.

He is not only the champion of the National Academy of Fine Arts, but also the biological brother of Eliza Parker.

Recalling the last international league, Kane and Xia Nantian met in the semi-finals.

That battle was thrilling, with both sides fighting back and forth and neither side giving in.

In the end, Kane was slightly inferior in this fierce contest and was defeated by Xia Nantian's Mega Charizard.

The intensity of that battle was beyond imagination, and Xia Nantian paid a price.

His ace Charizard was seriously injured and could not exert its full strength in the following finals. He eventually lost the finals and had to finish second.

But the grudge between the two goes far beyond this.

Kane's blind eye was caused by Xia Nantian in that thrilling battle, and it became an unsolvable knot between them.

"boom!"

A crisp sound broke the tense and depressing atmosphere on the sea, and Kane released his ace Pokémon, Vulcano, without hesitation.

With its wings spread, this Vulcan moth seems to be able to cover the sky and the sun. Mysterious and gorgeous patterns flash on each wing, and under the sunlight, they are as dazzling as burning flames.

When the Vulcan Moth's gaze fell on the majestic Fire-breathing Dragon under Xia Nantian, it seemed to feel the burning anger in its master's heart, and the flames around it instantly became more intense.

It recognized at a glance the "enemy" that had defeated it in the arena. The unwillingness and pain of failure instantly surged into its heart, and anger arose from its heart.

"Charizard, Dance of Fire!"

Kane's voice was deep and powerful, with unquestionable majesty, and it came out clearly amid the howling sea breeze.

Upon receiving the command, the Vulcan Moth flapped its wings and flew high, and hot flames instantly burst out from its body.

The flames were like a surging wave, rushing towards Xia Nantian and his fire-breathing dragon with overwhelming force.

On the sea, the flame appeared particularly dazzling and shining, as if it had dyed the entire world orange-red. The Vulcan Moth was like a sun hanging high in the sky, and also like the arrival of the god who controlled fire.

The scorching flames rushed towards me, and the heat waves rolled, as if turning everything around into ashes.

However, faced with such a powerful attack, Xia Nantian was not at all panicked.

He quietly looked at the flames coming towards him, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a confident and mysterious smile. That smile seemed to tell Kane that all this was within his expectations.

"Hiss-"

In the blink of an eye, the flames surged past, and wherever they passed, the sea water was evaporated by the high temperature and turned into layers of white water vapor.

Kane stood steadily on Steelix's back, the sea breeze blew his golden hair wantonly, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes were full of confusion and shock.

Because, Xia Nantian and his Charizard, who were still there just now, and the thunderclouds floating nearby, disappeared without a trace after the flames, as if they had never appeared, leaving only the empty sea surface, sparkling in the sun.

……

On an unknown island hidden in the vast ocean that is not even marked on the map, the sea breeze blows gently, rustling the coconut leaves on the shore.

Xia Nantian knelt on one knee, his chest heaving violently. Beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead slid down his cheeks, dripped onto the dry sand, and disappeared in an instant.

"Phew! It's so dangerous."

After a long time, Xia Nantian slowly stood up, took a long breath, and gently stroked his chest with his hand, as if to calm his still violently beating heart.

There was still a hint of relief in his eyes for surviving the disaster. Looking at the rough sea in the distance, he seemed to be able to see the thrilling battle scene just now.

Then, Xia Nantian turned around, a gentle smile bloomed on his face again, and he looked at the humanoid Pokémon standing beside him like a god.

It has a slender figure and exudes a vague mysterious aura. Its white body sparkles with a strange luster under the sunlight, and its eyes are deep and cold.

"Thanks for your help, Mewtwo."

Xia Nantian's voice was full of sincere gratitude. He bowed slightly to express his gratitude to Mewtwo.

[…Don’t forget what you promised me.]

Mewtwo's voice rang directly in Xia Nantian's mind, without a trace of emotion, cold and ethereal, as if it came from the depths of the distant universe.

"nature."

Xia Nantian responded without hesitation, with a smile still on his face, but there was a hint of pity that was hard to conceal in his eyes when he looked at Mewtwo.

Recalling the critical moment just now, facing the ferocious fire dance of Kane's Vulcan Moth and the predicament of being surrounded heavily, Xia Nantian knew very well that if it were not for Mewtwo's help, it would be extremely difficult for him to escape unscathed.

Mewtwo, relying solely on its superpowers that were almost invincible, took him, Charizard, and Thundercloud across space in an instant and arrived on this safe island.

In the world of Pokémon, Mewtwo's superpowers are terrifying. This ability to teleport, ignoring the limitations of distance and space, is undoubtedly an unstoppable trump card in battle.

Such a powerful Pokémon has strength that has surpassed the cognitive scope of ordinary Pokémon, and its psychic abilities are too super-model.

It's a pity that Mewtwo is a person who pursues freedom and independence. It yearns for an unrestrained life and doesn't want to be bound by anyone.

Unlike Lei Dianyun, although he has an unruly personality, he is willing to travel with Xia Nantian by chance.

As for Mewtwo, even though Xia Nantian was eager to subdue it, he also knew that it was just wishful thinking, which was really regrettable.
