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

Master-level Pokémon are extremely proficient in controlling the moves in their move pool, to the point of being almost supernatural.

All sorts of powerful moves with different attributes are used in succession, seemingly without any interval, like a merciless cannon unleashing its terrifying firepower.

The attacks—Pulse, Hurricane, Hydro Pump, and Dragon Pulse—were executed flawlessly, causing Mega Venusaur and Venusaur to retreat in defeat.

Two Champion-level Pokémon can only passively use defensive moves one after another, and they need to use two defensive moves stacked together to negate an attack.

"Powerful! Incredibly powerful! Even without utilizing its agile speed advantage, just the sheer volume of this skill, like ocean waves, unleashing wave after wave without ceasing, would force any powerful opponent to submit..."

Zhang Heng couldn't help but analyze it in his mind, and was shocked by the power displayed by the Master-type Pokémon.

Because the "Prince's Strategy" of the Thorn Dragon King is exactly the level that Zhang Heng wants Bodangshui to reach, and it is also very suitable for Bodangshui. Unfortunately, the current gap is still a bit too big.

However, even in the face of such a fierce attack, the opponent has not yet been subdued.

After all, the opponent was a seasoned champion, and his strategy for commanding the remaining four champion-level Pokémon was very clear.

As soon as they showed even the slightest opening, they would sense Zhang Heng's sneak attack. The four champion-level Pokémon had to take turns absorbing the firepower of the master-level Pokémon and sharing the damage in order to barely withstand it.

However, being passively attacked will eventually lead to defeat, and they are about to be completely crushed!

However, at this crucial moment—

The sharp killing intent and focused expression on Old Master Guo's face suddenly receded like the tide.

His gaze became unfocused and empty, and a childlike confusion and blankness appeared on his face. He tilted his head slightly, as if he did not understand why he was standing there or what was happening in front of him.

Alzheimer's disease struck again at this most critical moment!

“King Thorn Dragon… uh… next step… what should I do…” The old man muttered unconsciously, his words fragmented and unable to form any coherent instructions.

The Kingdra, who had been waiting for the next instruction, suddenly froze!

When masters clash, the difference is only a hair's breadth!

That moment of hesitation was undoubtedly fatal!

"A golden opportunity!" Although Kameda and Park Chang didn't know what had happened, they would never miss this once-in-a-lifetime chance!

"Mega Bulbasaur! Crazy plant! Catch it!"

"Wood Demon! Stealth Attack! Shadow Claw!"

Mega Venusaur roared furiously, and countless thick vines emerged like giant pythons from their caves. Taking advantage of Kingdra's momentary hesitation, they suddenly coiled around it, tightly binding and constricting its slender body, forcibly restricting its movements!

"Ugh~" The Thorn Dragon King, whose skin was pierced by thorns from the vines, couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.

The figure of the Wood Demon vanished from the field in an instant, and the next second, it emerged from the shadow behind the Dragon King like a ghost.

Dense, chilling ghost-type energy condensed on its withered claws, transforming into a gigantic shadow claw that viciously clawed at the back of the temporarily bound Thorn Dragon King!

"scoff~"

The sharp ghost claws scratched Kingdra's body. Although Kingdra was a Master-level Pokémon, its HP was not outstanding. This Champion-level attack still caused some damage, and some of its dragon scales fell off.

However, the Thorn Dragon King was not knocked away, but was pulled back by the vines again, and the Wood Demon was about to attack again.

"Waves! Support!"

"Don't think about it!"

At the same time, Park Chang also issued orders to obstruct the operation.

The Aegislash and the remaining Skarmory immediately abandoned their defenses and fiercely pounced on the trying-to-rescue Wave, their [Cannon] and [Air Blade] intertwining to create a barrage of fire, firmly blocking it!

"Oh no!" Zhang Heng was alarmed and immediately reached for the Poké Ball that was rippling in the water, preparing to forcibly recall it and perform another Dynamax.

Just then, Mr. Guo, his eyes glazed over, seemed to have exhausted the last bit of his conscious will.

With great difficulty and halting movements, he turned his head to look at Zhang Heng, his cloudy eyes filled with struggle and a hint of pleading:

"Xiao...Heng...help...help me...command..."

The old man was a trainer who was proficient in Water-type Pokémon, and the other Water-type Pokémon in his main team could more or less obey the commands of the younger generation of the Guo family, which could be regarded as a guarantee left to the family.

However, this Master-level Kingdra, being one of the few Dragon and Water-type Pokémons, is unique in that its pride as a Dragon-type Pokémon dictates that it will not easily acknowledge other trainers, not even its own trainers' children or grandchildren.

Water-Dragon type Pokémon are already extremely rare. Apart from Kingdra in Generation II and Palkia in Generation IV, other Water-Dragon type Pokémon didn't appear until Generation VIII.

Aside from Guo Jianan himself, he has never truly recognized any other trainer, nor will he listen to the commands of other trainers!

This is why the old man always kept it by his side, no matter how serious his illness was, because once the power of a Master-level Pokémon is revealed, it will be a huge disaster for both the enemy and himself.

Zhang Heng was stunned when he heard this. He looked at the Thorn Dragon King, which was bound by layers of crazy plants and was on the verge of death, and then looked at the old man in front of him, who seemed to have lost all his energy in an instant. A huge sense of responsibility and urgency pressed down on his heart.

He knew this was the only way!

He took a deep breath, silently closed his eyes, and fully mobilized the water control and dragon control powers originating from the system within his body, attempting to transmit his thoughts outward.

It wasn't a forceful command, but a communication imbued with respect and pleading, which resonated deep within the mind of the Thorn Dragon King.

"Dragon King! The situation is critical! Please trust me and lend me a hand! —Tornado!"

Kingdra, which was struggling and agitated by its trainer's abnormal behavior, suddenly shuddered!

A strange, yet strangely imbued with both the allure of water and the majesty of a dragon, young voice entered its consciousness directly.

This voice, unlike Grandpa Guo's, was full of absolute trust and tacit understanding, but it carried a peculiar power, as if soothing its instinctive arrogance and restlessness as a Dragon-type Pokémon, and making it feel an unprecedented and reassuring sense of resonance!

Perhaps having gained the approval of the Dragon Stone, Zhang Heng's dragon-taming power seems to have an even greater ability to pacify Dragon-type Pokémon than before.

Driven by fighting instinct and in response to that strange power, King Thorn Dragon carried out the command almost subconsciously!

"Mmm-hmm!!!"

The Thorn Dragon King let out a deafening dragon roar, and the immense dragon energy around him instantly erupted!

Instead of rising upwards, a massive, towering dragon-type energy hurricane suddenly rose from its center, spinning around it!

boom! ! !

The frenzied plant vines binding it were torn apart and shredded like fragile ropes by this violent dragon power originating from within!

The Wood Demon, who had just emerged from the shadows and was about to unleash its Shadow Claw, was violently thrown away by the sudden and terrifying tornado, crashing into the distant ruins like a kite with a broken string!

The tornado continued its relentless advance, even briefly lifting the massive body of the Thorn Dragon several meters off the ground, temporarily escaping the direct threat from the ground!

Seeing this, Zhang Heng did not hesitate and immediately continued with the next instruction, his voice clearly transmitted through telepathy:

"King Thorn Dragon! Hold this pose—Dragon Dance!"

Suspended in the tornado, the Thorn Dragon King did not hesitate at all and immediately began to twist its streamlined body and perform an ancient and mysterious war dance!

Its attack power and speed began to increase rapidly as the dance progressed! The power of the tornado and the dragon dance intertwined, creating an astonishing spectacle!

The desperate situation seems to have been reversed once again!
