A water-type trainer who specializes in dragon-type water.

Zarud's highly poisonous vine whip, formed from filthy grass energy and covered in thick, black resin, was about to wrap around the fragile claws of the Great Electric Seagull!

However, just as the tip of the vine whip was less than half a foot from its target—

“Sizzle——!!!”

An unimaginable heat instantly swept over the vine whip!

Those incredibly tough vines, strong enough to withstand the dragon's claw strikes, suddenly burst into dazzling golden-red flames like dry firewood soaked in oil!

The flames did not come from an external attack, but seemed to erupt from within the vines, from that filthy grass-based energy core!

The pitch-black resin boiled and bubbled violently under the terrifying heat, emitting a teeth-grinding "sizzle" sound, and turned into billowing black smoke! The highly poisonous eerie light flashing on the vine whip was instantly annihilated as if it had encountered its nemesis!

"Roar?!"

For the first time, a hint of astonishment flashed in Zarude's crimson beast eyes! It felt a scorching power originating from its very essence, a power it utterly loathed and feared, spreading wildly upwards along the vine whip!

It instinctively tried to retract the vine whip, but the flames burned faster than it could have imagined!

"The time has come!!" Li Xingeng's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his voice was like a torch that ignited the entire battlefield!

"All Fire-type Pokémon—Flamethrower! Burn that filthy creation!"

"Roar-!!!"

The molten mane between the lion's necks exploded with a roar! Its huge mouth opened wide, and a jet of flame, compressed to its limit and like a long river of crimson gold lava, tore through the air with the power to burn mountains and boil seas, heading straight for Zarud's body exposed in shock!

Mega Charizard X glanced at Zhang Leiyuan, who nodded slightly in return.

"Roar--!!!"

Mega Charizard X's deep blue eyes also burn with a furious rage that can incinerate everything!

It took a deep breath, its chest bulging like a furnace, and a jet of flame, even more ferocious than before and wreathed in destructive azure dragonfire, arrived first, running parallel to the Fire Lion's crimson torrent!

"Roar--!!!"

A clear yet destructive roar echoed from the sky! The Mega Charizard Y was already poised to unleash its power!

With its wings outstretched, it drew upon the immense power of the clear sky, unleashing a pure, blazing white jet of flame, as dazzling as the core of the sun, like a sword of divine punishment, slashing down from the heavens, its target Zarud!

Three! Three jets with the same attributes but vastly different styles, whose power is amplified to an unbelievable level under the blazing sun! Champion and near-Master level jets!

Like three roaring fiery dragons, carrying the will to incinerate everything, they instantly traversed space, with only one target—Zarud!

Crimson gold! Dark blue! Blazing white!

Wherever the three pillars of destructive fire passed, the air was completely ignited, producing a deafening explosion!

The scorched earth beneath their feet instantly turned into glass, billowing white smoke! The terrifyingly high combined temperature even caused Regischiru's cold steel body, not far away, to reflect a dark red branding sheen!

Zarude let out an unprecedented roar, a mixture of excruciating pain and rage! It sensed a deadly threat!

Those three flames were not only incredibly powerful, but also contained the most profound restraint and purification power against its grass-type origin!

It tried to parry with another vine, tried to activate the thorns for defense, and tried to escape into the jungle...

But, it's too late!

Three pillars of destructive fire collided in front of it with a deafening roar!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

An explosion beyond description occurred! It wasn't a simple collision of energy, but a fusion and eruption of pure, destructive high temperature!

A massive red and white fireball, tens of meters in diameter, instantly expanded, completely engulfing Zarud's enormous body!

The fireball's core was hot enough to vaporize steel, and the blinding light caused everyone on the battlefield to instinctively close their eyes!

Zarud's piercing roar was drowned out by the furious howl of flames!

Its proud layer of black resin and gnarled bark, which could withstand the slashing of dragon claws, melted and peeled off as quickly as wax under such an extreme fiery inferno!

The tainted grass-based energy was ignited and purified, crackling and popping! Pure pain made it struggle wildly, but it couldn't break free from this burning cage!

Rumble, rumble—! ! !

The devastating fireball's residual force still lingered. Zarude was firmly suppressed, and dull, angry thuds echoed from within, like the final struggle of a trapped beast.

However, the battlefield is ever-changing!

Seeing Zhang Leiyuan charging towards her, Suzuki Chiyuki had no time to spare and could only hand him over to the other Korean champions. Right now, she needed to rescue Zarud first, since he was also a divine beast and an indispensable fighting force.

"Registeel! The Primal Force!"

Regischiru, which stands as tall as a mountain, moved! Its scarlet electronic eyes locked onto Zarude, who was struggling in the fiery inferno, and its heavy arms suddenly rose, slamming down with earth-shaking force onto the reef submerged in the sea!

Thump! ! ! Buzz—! ! !

The earth trembled violently, and spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly! Primitive, wild rock-based energy was instantly detonated!

Five enormous, jagged fossil rocks covered with ancient and mysterious patterns are as if they were forcibly pulled out of the earth by an invisible giant hand!

They shimmered with a thick, earthy-yellow energy light, not aimed at the enemy, but rather crashed fiercely and precisely into the center where the three torrents of fire converged—intending to forcefully break through the cage of fire and rescue the severely injured Zarude from the brink of being burned alive!

Upon hearing the voice, a fierce glint flashed in Li Xingeng's eyes, and his voice, like rolling thunder, resounded across the chaotic battlefield.

"You think I'm invisible? You gossip! Die!"

Like a hunter who has spotted a venomous snake, his gaze suddenly locked onto the other side—Suzuki Kiyoyuki, who had been waiting for an opportunity to interfere with the battle!

With his roar, the blurry figure with broad wings in the sky responded instantly!

Five enormous fossilized rock blocks, carrying immense weight, hurtled through the air, about to crash into the crimson-white fireball—whoosh—!

Without warning! A pure, blazing, golden-red pillar of fire, carrying the will to burn away all wastelands, descended fiercely from the thick clouds high in the sky like a sword of judgment tearing through the heavens!

The timing and angle at which this golden-red pillar of fire appeared were extremely tricky!

It didn't attack any Pokémon, but rather precisely intercepted the path between the five fossil rocks and Zarude's fireball!

The intense heat it contained caused the air below to instantly distort and vaporize, emitting a piercing shriek!

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!

Destroy everything!

The sacred golden-red flames, imbued with the power of purification and destruction, collided violently with the fossilized rock that carried the primal power of the earth! The outcome was without a doubt!

The tough fossilized rock exploded with a deafening roar the moment it came into contact with the divine fire! The ancient patterns on its surface instantly turned black and crumbled!

Its lingering effects are far-reaching!

The golden-red pillar of fire, which had burned five fossilized rock pillars, was weakened, but its remaining power was still astonishing!

Like a raging, fiery dragon, carrying the embers of its burning power, it crashed down upon Regischiru's cold, steel body, which had just unleashed its primal power and was the closest to it!

Boom——! ! !

The blinding golden-red flames instantly engulfed Regischiru's massive figure! The scorching heat spread violently, the rocks beneath their feet hissed, and white smoke rose.

However, amidst the flames, Regischiru's enormous body, made of a special alloy, only swayed slightly!

Its intense heat scorched and distorted the air, and crimson lava-like marks briefly flowed, cooled, and left charred marks on its metallic shell, but its seven scarlet round eyes still blinked steadily.

The signature electronic sound rang out again, even mixed with a slight electrical noise caused by the high temperature, but the overall sound remained stable.

"Beep beep...buzz...beep...beep..."

Li Xingeng frowned slightly, his sharp gaze sweeping over the steel body that still gleamed with a cold, hard metallic luster after being scorched by the flames, and he said in a low voice, "Tsk, this iron lump is quite heat-resistant."

He instantly understood that although the fossil rocks summoned by the primal force were destroyed in an instant, they did indeed act as a perfect shield, absorbing most of the impact and heat of the flames.

More importantly, Registeel, as a legendary Registeel, boasts unparalleled defensive capabilities, with both its base defense and special defense stats at 150. While its steel body is twice as effective against fire, it is still a significant weakness.

However, it is not difficult to withstand the aftershocks of a fire-type move whose power has been greatly weakened and whose core impact has been neutralized by rocks.

However, a cold smile curled at the corner of Li Xingeng's lips. His goal had never been to prioritize dealing with this troublesome steel pillar!

The core of all his tactics is to go all out and defeat Zarud in the shortest possible time!

Regischiru's rescue was already within his expectations, and the trump card hidden in the clouds was meant to intercept him at this moment!

Now is the time to show off your trump card. Li Guanjun raised his hands and clapped twice. The crisp applause was particularly abrupt in the solemn battlefield, and then a hissing sound echoed from the clouds!

"Chirp~ Lie~~~!!!!"

Just as the aftershocks of the golden-red pillar of fire had not completely dissipated and the intense heat on Regischiru's body had not yet subsided, a clear, high-pitched bird call, piercing the sky and containing endless majesty and an ancient aura, rang out from the depths of the violently churning and rolling clouds!

call--! ! !

Accompanied by this cry announcing the arrival of the king, a hurricane powerful enough to tear the sky apart was created out of thin air!

The thick clouds that shrouded the battlefield were completely torn apart and dispersed by this sacred hurricane, like a fragile curtain!

The blinding sunlight poured down without obstruction, illuminating the battlefield!

And above that clear sky, bathed in eternal flames, appeared a sacred, majestic figure!

Flame bird!

It possesses a streamlined, bird-like body that perfectly blends strength and elegance. Every inch of its feathers seems to be forged from flowing golden-red divine fire, reflecting a dazzling brilliance in the sunlight!

The crest on its head is like a blazing crown of flames, demonstrating its authority as a fire-type divine beast!

Each time it flaps its broad, fiery wings, it stirs up scorching storms and scattered sparks, as if the sky itself is burning in anticipation of its arrival!

Its eyes first coldly swept over Regischiru, the steel pillar that had withstood the aftershock of its attack.

Immediately, as if locking onto its prey, it firmly and tightly pinned Zarud to the center of the three torrents of flame!
