Chapter 65 The Fist of Wrath
Chapter 65 The Fist of Wrath
It was two o'clock, but the host, seeing that there weren't enough audience members, said:
"The time has come. Those of you who haven't arrived yet, hurry up, our match is about to begin."
Li Shuwen, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them at this moment, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.
Li Shuwen took out a Poké Ball. "Let's go, Gallade!"
Gallade appears, extending its elbow blades directly from its arms.
One person and one Pokémon, their eyes fixed intently on Cynthia, revealing their burning fighting spirit.
"Miss Cynthia, this challenge is the opportunity I've been waiting for. I hope you can give it your all and let me see the difference between myself and the Elite Four."
"How big must it be for me to strive even harder to reach your level?"
Cynthia nodded and took out a Poké Ball as well.
"As you wish, Garchomp!"
The host looked to the left, then to the right. Wait, why are you two ignoring me, the host, and starting a fight yourselves?!
Cynthia extended her hand. "Since it's a challenge match, you can go first."
Cynthia couldn't be more satisfied with Li Shuwen in front of her.
What a spirited and ambitious young man!
Li Shuwen smiled slightly, "Then I won't stand on ceremony."
With a wave of his hand, he shouted, "Galride, Psychic Blade!"
"Dragon Claw!"
Gallade charged forward quickly and swung its elbow blade at Garchomp. Garchomp raised its dragon claw to block and then counterattacked.
The mental blade clashed with the dragon claw, exchanging blows more than ten times, like two skilled swordsmen constantly probing, attacking, blocking, and attacking.
It's so convenient, going back and forth like this!
Finally, Gallade slashed Garchomp, and Garchomp struck Gallade with its claw, separating the two.
But the observant Li Shuwen noticed that Gallade's attack only left a shallow cut on Garchomp's sharkskin.
It's just a minor scratch.
On the contrary, it was Garchomp's claw that caused Gallade's blood to surge.
With the help of its Sharpness ability, Gallade's attack power can briefly rival Garchomp's.
However, in terms of defense, Gallade, which initially relied on Bulk Up for training, was no match for Garchomp.
"Garuda, Swords Dance!"
Like a storm of blades, Garchomp charged toward Gallade while spinning and performing a sword dance.
Li Shuwen narrowed his eyes slightly. "Gallade, jump! Holy Sword!"
Gallade leaped high into the air, its elbow blade condensing into a massive white energy blade.
Split Mount Hua in two!
"Dragon God Dives!"
Garchomp, its entire body enveloped in blue energy, soared straight into the sky.
A violent collision of energies triggers an explosion.
Garchomp glides two steps on the ground before stopping with its fin.
Gallade rolled a few times after landing, then knelt on the ground, looking rather disheveled, panting heavily.
Garchomp, attacking at full power, only managed to land two hits on Gallade.
This already put him somewhat overwhelmed.
"Sword Dance!"
The sword dance was bait, a trap, but Li Shuwen had no choice but to fall for it.
"The Holy Sword!"
Li Shuwen frowned slightly. Did Cynthia really like Swords Dance that much? She had to use Swords Dance twice when battling a random trainer.
It interrupted Sword Dance again, but Garchomp immediately spun around and unleashed a double slash.
The powerful dragon energy shattered Gallade's holy sword.
Gallade was also blasted away.
Staggering to the ground, his vitality was already like a candle flickering in the wind.
But Gallade's eyes grew brighter, and he had only one thought in his mind: to win this game for Li Shuwen!
"Garuda, Dragon Dive!" Cynthia stared at Gallade.
Using Dragon Dive to finish off Gallade doesn't diminish his talent.
Li Shuwen was equally unwilling to lie down and admit defeat.
He's going to take a gamble.
"Gallopon, Aerial Ace!"
Gallade also revealed its elbow blades and charged at the diving Garchomp.
His body spun in the air, miraculously avoiding the dragon god's dive!
He then struck Garchomp in the back, causing it to sway slightly.
The audience gasped in surprise.
The older man said, "Looks like Gallade does have a chance after all~"
Garchomp looked up and immediately spun around and swooped down to attack back.
"Double slash!"
Gallade used its last bit of strength, stomped its toes on the ground, and closed in on Garchomp, slashing twice heavily on Garchomp's back.
Garchomp's Dragon Dive was somewhat unsteady due to the influx of dragon power.
The girl with glasses shook her head. "You're wrong. Gallade can't beat Garchomp."
Garchomp roared, releasing an even stronger dragon-shaped aura.
With a backflip, it also crashed into Gallade's back, sending Gallade flying.
Gallade landed, struggled to her feet, and stretched out her elbow blades with trembling hands.
Even so, he could still continue fighting!
Li Shuwen clenched his fist, responding to Gallade's heart.
"Gallide, unleash our final holy sword!"
A dazzling white blade of light took shape, and Gallade charged towards Garchomp.
Dance of Death!
"Garuda, Dragon Claw!"
The two passed each other, Gallade fell to the ground silently, and Garchomp also had a clear wound on its shark fin.
Li Shuwen took out a Poké Ball and recalled Gallade.
"Gallade, you've done a great job."
Being able to injure Garchomp, even if only slightly, is already an outstanding performance.
Shinji went to great lengths and finally managed to find a weakness in Garchomp.
The Tortoise used Crazy Plants, but it failed to break through the defenses.
A comparison will show you how excellent Gallade is.
"Intense Monkey, let's have a good fight!"
Just by feeling Garchomp's aura, Infernape started to burn.
"Intense Monkey, Explosive Punch!"
"Sword Dance Defense"
Li Shuwen frowned deeply. The Garchomp, which had performed three sword dances, could probably kill one enemy with a single claw.
Infernape's all-out punch only resulted in him being sent flying by Shark Fin.
He leaped up and unleashed a punch ten times more furious at Garchomp.
"Break the tile!"
The shark fin glowed white and sent Infernape flying.
"Jiajia!"
A surge of rage, faintly emanating a dark aura.
Cynthia frowned slightly. "Dragon God Dive!"
"Inferno Monkey, focus your mind and control your anger. Think about your goal and channel your anger into your fists."
"Then aim at the target and throw this punch!"
Faced with Garchomp, Primeape was unable to control its anger, forcing Li Shuwen to reveal some details of its Furious Punch in advance.
"Garuda, wait."
Cynthia originally intended to force a shutdown to interrupt Primeape's excessive anger.
Since Li Shuwen has other ways of handling this, let Li Shuwen do it.
The red fury disappeared, and Infernape's fist faintly glowed with black light.
The fury, fifteen times stronger than normal, allowed Infernape to unleash the power of his soul.
Let him unleash that furious punch!
"Dragon Claw!"
With fists and claws clashing, Infernape was knocked away by Garchomp.
After rolling around a few times, Incineroar got up and clenched his fists again.
"Dragon Claw!"
Infernape actually showed more tenacity than Gallade.
He was knocked away five times in a row!
He actually managed to get up.
The fist completely condensed into a layer of black light, and the power it contained increased fivefold once again.
A furious punch with twenty times the power!
This punch was not much different from a real punch of rage.
The power it contained moved even Cynthia.
With a gentle wave of his hand, he shouted, "Garuda, Dragon Dive!"
Garchomp, with Infernape on its back, charged to the edge of the battlefield before landing.
Intense Monkey has already passed out.
Li Shuwen stepped forward and pried open the monkey's eyelids to check its condition.
Thankfully, Li Shuwen breathed a sigh of relief.
He's still alive and alright.
Thanks to Cynda and Garchomp, Primeape managed to learn Rage Punch without any major mishaps.
Li Shuwen recalled the Infernape into its Poké Ball and handed both Poké Balls to Li Meining, who was sitting in the audience.
"Little sister, please take them to Miss Joey for treatment."
