Pokémon: Trainers start as Bounty Hunters

Chapter 290 vs Water Arrow Turtle
"Ace duel!! This is an unquestionable ace duel!!"

The commentary sounded hoarse.

"No one expected that at the end of the first half, the two players brought unexpected choices to the audience.

Audiences who are familiar with Tetsuya and Jingji know that the flame chicken and the water arrow turtle are the strongest elves in the two teams respectively.

In the previous 32 to [-] competition, Tetsuya's flame chicken once ended the first half of the competition by himself. Its opponents were three quasi-king-level elves with similar strength. And dominance is extremely rare.

As for Jingji's Shuijian Turtle, he set the record for the fastest defeat in the main arena of the Hoenen Alliance Saiyu Conference three years ago. At that time, his opponent was also a powerful quasi-king-level elf. The performance of the well-known Blastoise can be said to be impressive.

In this Quartz Conference, player Jingji’s Blastoise has never played before. I don’t know how much its strength has improved in the past three years, and what kind of surprises it will bring us.

In short, let us wait and see! "

The commentator's lips collided up and down, and he finished a long paragraph at an extremely fast speed.

The noise from the auditorium was raised to a higher level.

The first game of Sixteen to Eight was so exciting that many people said that their hearts and throats couldn't bear it.

"This kid is probably the champion of this Quartz Conference."

Wu Neng in front of the TV made his own judgment the moment he saw the water arrow turtle.

Xiaogang and Jiro immediately understood what their father meant, and they both sighed helplessly.

On the field, Tetsuya and Shinagawa Shizuji blocked unnecessary interference from the outside world, and stared at their partners and opponents with their eyes.

"Something is not very good." Zhe also said silently in his heart.

Only the blue screen that he could see appeared beside Blastoise opposite, and the word Tianwang marked on the column of strength made him extremely stressed.

The gap between the king-level elves and quasi-king-level elves can't be easily smoothed out like in the previous stages.

To put it simply, the king of heaven is the real dividing line between whether the elves are powerful or not.

In the eyes of ordinary people in the alliance, elite-level elves and trainers are powerful enough, and a trainer of this strength can be admired in a small city.

In addition to relying on their own strength to earn money that ordinary people can't imagine, they will also protect the city in times of crisis.

Even in terms of the huge base of elves in the wild, there are not so many elves at the elite level and above, and most of them choose to live away from human cities.

Without the guardianship of a king-level trainer, the elite and quasi-kings are the main force against the wild elves attacking the city.

In this case, it seems to have become a default concept that elite trainers are considered powerful.

After all, compared to the "trainers" who can only be called "elf lovers" in general, the strength of the elite level is enough for them to look up to.

But in fact, only at the Heavenly King level can one be truly powerful in the elf world.

This is also the reason why the alliance stipulates that the identification of an official gymnasium requires a heavenly king-level trainer to serve as the owner of the gymnasium.

In the words of the novel Tetsuya read in his last life, a heavenly king-level trainer can completely control a city by one person.

Although most of the king-level elves live in secluded places with rich resources, it does not mean that all the king-level elves are so harmonious.

It is entirely possible for many grumpy heavenly king-level elves to attack human cities, especially when their territories and habitats are invaded by humans.

You must know that most of the kings of this strength are not solo, and the huge group under their hands can completely scare people to death.

Fortunately, the elves follow the rule that whoever is stronger in the wild will occupy the territory. As long as their boss is defeated, the group under its leadership will retreat and live in another place.

In Tetsuya's impression, the attack of the giant stinging jellyfish in Rampurchi City is a portrayal of this kind of incident.

If it weren't for Xiaozhi and his party, unless the Heavenly King trainer arrived, there would be only one end for Rampurchi City.

Of course, then again, if it weren't for the giant stinging jellyfish, the stinging jellyfish group would not easily attack human cities without the leadership of a powerful boss.

The ocean is so big, it is not a big deal for them to change their habitat.

People once thought about using quasi-king-level elves to defeat heaven-king-level elves, but after trying it, they found that it was not realistic.

It is an undisputed notion that elves in the wild are generally weaker than elves bred by trainers, and the few exceptions are beyond the scope of this discussion.

Although they may be relatively rich in combat experience, the wild elves are at a disadvantage in other respects.

At the level of the quasi-king, regardless of attribute factors, it is not a problem for the elves cultivated by the trainer to fight against three or even four elves that grow naturally in the wild—if the trainer can continue to command alive.

However, if Ueno grows into a king-level elf with this kind of strength, winning is still unrealistic.

In the current league record, this has only happened three times.

It is so difficult to deal with the elves in the wild, so it is not difficult to imagine the gap between the quasi-king and the elves between the trainers.

According to the known information, no one can defeat the Heavenly King Spirit with the Quasi-Heavenly King Spirit in an official battle, at least there is no precedent in one-on-one situations.

Zhe also looked at his fire-type flame chicken, and then at the water-type water arrow turtle. Although he had a lot of confidence in the flame chicken, it was somewhat difficult.

The strength is so much worse, and the attributes are still at a disadvantage.

Shinagawa Shizuji stood quietly on the podium. The not-so-huge body of the water arrow turtle in front of him seemed to be like a mountain at this time, with an extremely calm momentum.

"Flame chicken, shoot flames."

Zhe also took the lead.

Speaking of which, he had never faced a Heavenly King-level elf head-on, so he just took this opportunity to experience it.

"Oh scary"

The Flame Chicken, which had been emitting scorching flames from its wrists since the very beginning of its appearance, screamed excitedly, and a turbulent pillar of fire spurted out of its mouth.

As an elf, it can feel the opponent's strength even more.

But so what.

For the flame chicken of the fire and fighting system, the more difficult the battle, the more it can arouse its enthusiasm. The stronger the opponent, the more the flames in the heart and wrist will burn.

It doesn't think about winning or not. That's a question for its own boss to consider. It just needs to fight the opponent with all its strength.

Shinagawa Shizuji and Blastoise remained motionless.

The audience who didn't know why were a little confused, and a small part of the audience reacted with light in their eyes.

"Kamei~"

When the fiercely burning flame reached Blastoise's body, Blastoise slowly turned sideways under Shinagawa Shizuji's instructions.

The water cannon tube protruding from the left front end of the turtle shell is facing the jet flame.

"Whoo-"

Violent water gushes out.

An elf like the water arrow turtle has a natural physical advantage when using skills such as water guns and water cannons.

The two barrels in the front of the turtle shell are not just for viewing.

The powerful impact force caused by the unique structure can easily penetrate the extremely thick steel plate.

The water flow and flames converged in the air, the red and blue colors gradually disappeared, and layers of white mist filled the body of Blastoise.

This action of Blastoise and the result of the elimination of water and fire caused everyone to exclaim.

Not for anything else, just because the water arrow turtle can only fire water guns through a water cannon tube.

Being able to use a low-power water gun to counteract the high-power jet flames, even the dullest people know that this means that the strength of the water arrow turtle has reached the level of a king.

Otherwise, no matter how dominant the attribute is, this situation will not happen.

This is not something unimaginable.

Long before the start of this Quartz Conference, gossip about Shinagawa Shizuji's water arrow tortoise breaking through the king level had spread widely.

Many people are convincing, thinking that if Shizuji Shinagawa was not confident enough to win the championship with the Celestial King-level Blastoise as his hole card, he would definitely not play again after three years of silence.

People who think fast enough have already begun to feel sorry for Zhe.

"It really is strong enough."

But at this time, Zhe Ye was not unhappy at all, but excited.

During the Gyarados incident in Dead Leaf City last time, he only felt the power of Ma Zhishi's Raichu from a distance.

In addition, my own strength was very limited at the time, and I didn't have a very clear concept of how strong the king of heaven was.

Now that my own strength has almost reached this stage, I can only have a real experience after facing it head-on.

"The stronger the better." Zhe also murmured.

His eyes were very hot.

The king of heaven is like this, so what about the champion, what about the beast.

Don't mention the strange power of Shiba on the Twin Islands and the Frozen Bird. He didn't even see a single hair of the latter.

"We will only get stronger."

The sound of the waveguide of the flame chicken resounded in Zheye's heart.

Zhe also grinned.

"In the face of a powerful opponent, Tetsuya did not back down or fear. His smile represented everything about him. There is no victory or defeat in elf battles, only courage to move forward!"

The passionate voice of the commentary echoed in the air.

He didn't brag that he was confident, even ghosts would believe it.

But this spirit is very much in line with the league's value orientation.

The commentator suddenly understood why the superiors had to forcefully push this young trainer. Apart from talent and strength, this kind of character is more important.

Shinagawa Shizuji was also very happy.

Tetsuya's attitude shows that his choice is not wrong.

Otherwise, out of the idea of ​​hiding his strength, he could have dispatched his remaining powerful quasi-king spirits.

His gaze turned to Tetsuya again.

Zhe also understood what he meant.

"Let me attack."

Zhe also chuckled, too confident is not a good thing.

The flame chicken stepped forward step by step against everyone's gaze.

"Flame Chicken, Sword Dance, Bodybuilding, Qi Gathering!"

Zhe was not polite either, and the three-in-one buff superposition that Flame Chicken had never fully demonstrated was completed at a speed that was beyond everyone's expectations.

"And then, Zhenqi Fist!"

Before people could react, Tetsuya's eyes widened and he shouted loudly.

"Boom"

The sound of hard objects colliding sounded.

The Flaming Chicken kicked its legs and turned into a phantom and rushed out.

It clenched its claws tightly, and the white light became more and more dazzling.
