Age of Elves: I started flashing with my handheld.

"Woof!" Even in the rain, Arcanine was exceptionally energetic, its entire body ablaze with golden flames, and its surface crackled with barely perceptible electric sparks due to its color resembling the flames.

With a slight step forward from its two sharp claws, the sun is rising!

294. VS Guzma

"Slay the commander, test your skills in the street!" Boulmei was not intimidated.

Her life motto is very simple.

Just do it!

Bisharp inherited its master's will perfectly. Facing the Arcanine that was charging straight at it, it neither dodged nor avoided it. Instead, it raised its right hand, and jet-black Dark-type energy condensed into a blade, which it then slashed down fiercely.

"boom!"

Boulmei only felt a burst of heat flash around her, and then her cleaving commander disappeared.

When she came to her senses, she saw Commando pinned to the ground and hacked to pieces by Arcanine amidst the ruins of a villa behind her, its body engulfed in flames.

"Slash strength, use Iron Head quickly!" Bulmei hurriedly added the command.

Commander quickly used its only usable head to attack Arcanine, but Arcanine immediately jumped nimbly, giving up the suppression, but at the same time delivering a powerful "Flamethrower".

"call!!!"

Even from a great distance, Nanfeng could hear the sound of raging flames scorching the earth; the flames falling on the ground were like pouring out golden water!

By the time Arcanine returned to Southwind like a gust of wind, Slash Commander had already lost his ability to fight.

That's normal. Although the power of Fire-type moves is weakened in the rain, Bisharp's type is Dark/Steel, which is exactly what Arcanine, a Fire-type Pokémon, is super effective against.

It rained, but it also seemed like it didn't.

If one Flame Charge doesn't kill you instantly, then add a Flame Jet, and you're done for.

Seeing that she had lost her ability to fight and slashed the commander, Bulmi was so angry that she gritted her teeth and could only throw out Poké Balls repeatedly.

Suddenly, a level 67 Saurami and a level 64 Crobat appeared!

"Flame Queen Lizard, use Dragon Tail."

"Crossbat, use Air Blade"

The Safi'jiiva twisted its body and swung its dark green dragon tail as it flew towards Arcanine, while Crobat flapped its wings in mid-air, unleashing countless invisible air blades that bombarded the Arcanine.

Facing two Pokémon that are nearly 10 levels higher than himself, and on a rainy day no less.

Sending Arcanine into battle again would be rather impolite.

"Greninja Frog, Iai Slash!"

"Gardedoll, use Psychic!" Nanfeng commanded, raising her hand.

With a powerful leap, the Greninja leaped forward, its body enveloped in pale blue water, skimming close to the ground with the speed of a nimble fish. A white longsword appeared in its hand as it swam, slashing through the air.

With a clang, the Iaijutsu struck the dragon's tail.

The Flame Queen was instantly cleaved away, and Greninja didn't chase after it. Instead, it followed up with five Water Shuriken, pinning the Flame Queen to death in mid-air!

The Flame Queen is a Fire/Poison type, and it takes double damage from Water-type moves.

A guaranteed instant kill!

Gardevoir stretched out its hand, and Psychic Spikes spread out. The spikes constructed by Psychic Power were also invisible and formless, but the air blades were clearly visible to Gardevoir. In the time it took to breathe, the spikes blew away all the air blades and pierced through Crobat with lightning speed!

As a Poison/Flying-type Pokémon, Crobat is also weak against Psychic-type moves.

A Psychic attack that deals double damage makes it incredibly easy to instantly kill a fragile Crobat.

In a single exchange, both spirits were instantly defeated.

To this, Nanfeng can only say

This kind of battle is really easy and simple.

Opponents of the same level pose absolutely no challenge to me.

Kelmire wanted to take out another Poké Ball, but Gardevoir didn't give her another chance. After defeating Crobat, Gardevoir used its invisible Psychic to bind her arms and wrap around her whole body, pulling her back and hanging her upside down in front of Nanfeng.

The three Overlord stickers slid out of her pocket and, guided by her telekinesis, landed in Nanfeng's hand in mid-air.

"There are three cadre certificates?" Nanfeng accepted them with satisfaction.

There are 88 cards so far. The three Overlord stickers from earlier have disappeared, but it's not a big problem. As long as they haven't left Po Town, they won't disappear!

Looking up at the mansion in front of him, the gate was slowly opening, and a white-haired young man walked out. His face also had a roguish look, and he was full of impatience.

"Hey, hey, hey, who are you? Why are you trespassing on my Skull Team's base?"

"There's no particular reason, I just want to take care of your Skull Team, especially someone like you who can't even be a captain," Nanfeng said loudly. The person in front of him was undoubtedly the leader of the Skull Team, Guzma.

· ······Requesting 0 flowers ········

Upon hearing "someone who can't even be a captain," Guzma's eyes immediately turned cold.

He does occasionally make fun of himself as someone who "can't even be a captain," but that's all he does; it's not his place to make such sarcastic remarks.

"So...you're here to die?"

"Hurry up and send out your Pokémon. I have other important things to do later." Nanfeng beckoned to Guzma. The important thing was to exchange for the Dragon-type pseudo-legendary overlord!

"As you wish!" Guzma's eyes blazed with fire, and he immediately threw out a Poké Ball.

A large armored creature, or perhaps a Kairos, landed on the battlefield.

0 ....... ...

"Crack!" The giant armored carapace kept twitching its two long horns on its head, and a bug-type Pokémon's cry came from its mouth, which looked like a crack in the center of its body. Its level was marked as LV76.

"Hmm, this level of opponent is quite interesting," Nanfeng said, raising his hand to strike.

Greninja, Surf!

Greninja immediately bent down and patted the ground with both hands.

The 10-meter-high azure curtain rose again, and the mighty procession rushed toward Guzma and Dajia!

"Destruction Ray!" Guzma snorted and raised his hand to give the command.

The giant armor immediately gathered a destructive force of light in its mouth, which just as the wave arrived, it burst forth.

Instantly, a dazzling white light appeared as a long white lightsaber slashing down from the sky, splitting the giant wave in two!

"Climb the waterfall!" Nanfeng added.

From the cleaved tide, Greninja leaps out, its body enveloped in water, spiraling through the air before delivering a powerful kick!

"Hold on!" Guzma shouted immediately.

The giant armor immediately crossed its horns and arms, and an invisible barrier was just barely erected as Greninja arrived.

"Thump!" The protective barrier shattered as it blocked the waterfall, but at the same time, countless streams of water splashed up, landing and spiraling around the giant armor.

The successful waterfall climb triggered the "tidal vortex"!

Not only that, Greninja used the reaction force to jump up again, and before Nanfeng could give the order, it threw out eight of its five flying water shuriken at once.

295. A crushing defeat from start to finish

"Ta-da!"

Five consecutive darts landed on the steel plate.

The giant armored carapace was forced to retreat repeatedly, but it gritted its teeth and stubbornly withstood the attacks. However, the carapace was not favored by Lady Luck.

The "Intimidation - King's Proof" on Greninja took effect, instantly putting it into a cowering state.

His body was paralyzed and unable to move. Then, the large armor was immediately swept up by the surrounding vortex and lost in the whirlpool.

When the vortex dissipated, Greninja landed back in front of South Wind, while Pinsir had lost its ability to fight.

In stark contrast to the great armor's excellent defense, its physical strength does not seem to be very strong.

Guzma held his breath; even from this initial exchange, he could already see Nanfeng's terrifying combat abilities!

"Where did this powerful figure come from!" Guzma gritted his teeth and yelled, "Zero 80!" In his opinion, Nanfeng was definitely no weaker than those island kings.

"Next one," Nanfeng said arrogantly.

Guzma threw out another Poké Ball.

This time, he sent out the elf "Vacannon Bug".

A flying insect with long, slender mouthparts, resembling a spaceship in appearance. It possesses extremely strong special attack capabilities, but its speed is a bit slow; otherwise, Nanfeng would have liked to train it as his Electric-type Pokémon.

Guzma is sending out Vikadot now because he wants to use Electric-type attacks to counter Greninja.

"Thunder!" Guzma shouted.

The stag beetle immediately spat out a bolt of lightning from its sharp mouthparts and shot it into the sky.

It was exactly the same as what Nanfeng guessed.

Therefore, he took out a Poké Ball in advance to recall Greninja.

Garchomp was dispatched.

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket engulfed everything in front of Nanfeng.

"Aww!!" The Garchomp, bathed in lightning, felt extremely comfortable, as if it had taken a bath.

Guzma didn't switch Pokémon. Vikadounon's ability is "Levitate," so he wasn't afraid at all and directly took out a Bug-Z and put it on his Z-Ring.

"Vacannon Bug, Z-Move: Absolute Predator Spin Slash!"

Guzma reached out and assumed a mantis-like hunting posture. Immediately, a thick white silk thread shot out from the mouth of the Vikavolt, binding Garchomp. With a sharp tug, it flung Garchomp into the sky.

Two electric pulses erupted from behind the Vikavolt Beetle, its mouthparts wielding a sharp sword wrapped in a pale green glow, as it soared through the air and stabbed at the Garchomp.

"A Z-Move based on the cross-cutting technique?" Nanfeng raised his hand.

"Garuda, Mega Evolution, Dragon Claw!"

A burst of multicolored light erupted, and Garchomp, which was bound by the threads, immediately evolved under the light. The violent Dragon-type energy instantly tore apart the surrounding threads, which were not able to restrain it in the first place.

A pair of large scythes, resembling blood-red crescent moons, appeared, coated with a layer of dark green light, and fell from the sky to slash!

"Zizzizi!"

The blood-red scythe clashed with the sharp mandibles, like the collision of two peerless weapons, sparking countless fires.

However, this seemingly violent collision only lasted for a second.

boom!

Vikadounon was cleaved into the mud by Mega Garchomp and never got up again, losing its ability to fight on the spot!

Faced with the terrifying physical attacks of the Super Garchomp.

If you don't have the offensive or defensive capabilities to match it, or the stamina and resistance to Dragon-type moves, then you'll be instantly killed!

"Roar!" Mega Garchomp roared, its fragile opponent failing to satisfy it!

Guzma's breath hitched.

Mega Garchomp, the Mega Evolution of Garchomp?

So strong!

Guzma was now absolutely certain that the man before him was stronger than the King of Alola!

No one can defeat him unless the island's guardian intervenes!

"Anything else? If not, then surrender now!" Nanfeng shouted.

The Mega Garchomp's eyes turned red, and its two blood-red scythes seemed ready to strike.

"How could it be just that!" Guzma roared. Didn't he form the Skull Team to overthrow the rule of the Island King and the Captain?

How could we possibly lose here so inexplicably and so simply!

Guzma threw out two Poké Balls.
