Elf: Re-employment of retired champion of Padiya

Chapter 679 "Bullet Time" and "Hegemony Aura"

the other side.

Because the ten wild adult Dragonites, including the heterochromatic Dragonite, were eliminated very quickly, many Dragonites and Haxorus were looking forward to it.

——Maybe, this foreign Dragonite today can really gain the recognition of the Dragonite leader?

Among the Dragonite clan living on this Dragonite Island.

The prestige of the Dragonite leader can be said to be unmatched except for the giant Dragonite that is the guardian god.

The reason is that in addition to being older than most Dragonites, strength is still a very important factor.

Even the Dragonites who participated in the election for the leader were thinking about how to gain the recognition of the Dragonite leader instead of really planning to defeat him.

But as outsiders, Luo Mu and Dragonite really want to defeat the Dragonite leader in a fair and square manner.

Although he was not sure what the magical power represented, he felt that defeating the opponent with a stronger force was more convincing than gaining recognition.

——Of course, the premise is that Dragonite leader has that intention.

Otherwise, if the other party is prepared to fight to the point of stopping, it would be somewhat impolite if you still attack violently.

"Booo ...

Dragonite waved his hand to reject the Dragonite leader's proposal to take a break before fighting again.

Although it may sound a bit impolite to say this, the battle just now did warm it up well, and it is in very good condition now.

There is no problem in continuing to the next game.

Since Dragonite responded in this way, the Dragonite leader, who was also very curious about its true strength, nodded slightly, flapped his dragon wings and flew to the other end of Dragonite, staring at the other party with his vicissitudes and serious dragon eyes.

"Ouch——"

After a roar that was neither light nor heavy, the Dragonite leader showed no intention of holding back. With a buzzing sound caused by the vibration of the air, the huge emerald green dragon claw pierced the air and attacked Dragonite!

For wild Pokémon, there are no referees in battle, and no rules about who attacks first or second.

They all seize the advantage by relying on their strength!

Dragonite's reaction was not slow at all, and it also used the "Dragon Claw" move, and firmly took the "Dragon Claw" that the Dragonite leader slapped with huge force!
As a trainer, Luo Mu had no intention of stepping forward to give command, because this was a battle between Dragonite and the Dragonite clan leader, representing the alternation of the position of clan leader.

He would not interfere.

Under Luo Mu's gaze.

With the area where the claws of both sides overlapped as the center, a strong air wave spread out in a ripple shape, first attacking the Dragonite and Hackronix that were watching nearby, and almost blew the Dratini into the sky, then spread to the woods area at the back, making the treetops rustle before disappearing completely.

This scene made the wild adult Dragonites, such as the Harlequin Dragonite, who had been ravaged by the Dragonite leader, dumbfounded. Their dragon mouths were so wide open that even the eggs of Gigantic could fit in.

——No way, can Dragonite really withstand the attack of the tribe leader?
An expression of admiration flashed in the eyes of the Dragonite leader, who then used the force of Dragonite's counter-thrust to be thrown into the sky, and immediately spread his dragon wings to stabilize his body.

"Hooooo——"

A brilliant cross star lighted up in the mouth of Dragonite leader, and then transformed into a giant blue, purple and red energy dragon made up of countless starlight, which gushed out towards Dragonite below!

"Dragon Wave"!
In response to this extremely effective attack, Dragonite's choice is -

As his legs kicked hard on the ground, the dragon wings on his back stretched out to the maximum extent. White light instantly expanded from the base of the wings to the end, and then extended further, turning into a pair of white light wings that were far larger than before.

「Wing Attack」!
Dragonite climbed sideways, and its pair of white wings were like a sharp knife tearing through the sky, splitting the mighty energy dragon in two!
With the violent explosion caused by the out-of-control dragon wave as the background, Dragonite flapped its wings and flew towards the Dragonite leader without changing its expression. Its tail, which usually looked very cute, now looked like a long whip that could easily break stone and steel, and it lashed towards the Dragonite leader with a sound of breaking through the air!

"Dragon's Tail"!
After all, both sides are flying-type Pokémon, and air combat is the fighting method that can best bring out their strengths.

The Dragonite leader reacted promptly, and while he suddenly climbed his flight altitude to avoid Dragonite's "dragon tail", a sky-blue ball of light condensed above his head, aiming at Dragonite, whose body was spinning in the air due to inertia, and countless crescent-shaped wind blades attacked it!
With the flying speed of "Air Blade", even Dragonite would find it difficult to dodge all the attacks when the two sides are less than one meter apart.

Opening the "Hold" wall seems to be a good choice, and it can also prevent the strategically important "Multiple Scales" from being broken.

This is also the unique advantage of Dragonite as a Pokémon captured and cultivated by trainers.

——But Dragonite made a completely different decision.

Dragonite allowed the densely packed wind blades to bombard its body, creating dense sparks on its well-maintained dragon scales.

It clenched its right claw, and a frosty aura condensed on it.

"Frozen Fist"!
Bang-!
A cold current suddenly exploded on the body surface of Dragonite Chief, and then transformed into a thick white mist and spread out like an avalanche on a snowy mountain.

The sudden drop in temperature slowed down the movements of the Dragonite leader.

Compared to Dragonite whose "multiple scales" were broken by the "Air Blade", it is obvious that the Dragonite leader suffered more.

But in the next moment, a huge wind started to blow with the Dragonite leader as the center.

As the strong wind blew away, the spreading cold air made the Dragonites watching the battle below shiver. Several Dragonites and Dragonite with children protected the shivering Dratini behind them.

Immediately afterwards, sparks filled the strong wind, as if a raging flame was ignited out of thin air, sweeping away the cold current!

"It's the hot wind—"

Hiding behind Moltres, Luo Mu muttered to himself as he looked at Dragonite leader whose wings were almost dyed red in the sky.

Not to mention, the power of this move is quite impressive. It is hard to imagine that wild Pokémon can hone their moves so well without systematic breeding.

After being hit by a "Heat Wind" counterattack at close range, Dragonite stopped blocking its arms in front of its body. If you look closely, you can see that wisps of green smoke are rising from its arms.

It can be seen how high the temperature of the "hot air" is.

Below, the Dragonites breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Dragonite being hit head-on by the Dragonite leader's "Heat Wind".

Fortunately, the Chieftain was still as strong as they remembered. However, the fact that Dragonite could fight the Chieftain to this extent still made the Dragonites who witnessed it defeat ten people at once admire it.

However, compared to the inertial thinking of the Dragonites, the Dragonite leader was in a very serious mood at this moment.

I can’t see through it. I can’t see through it at all.

No matter what kind of attack it was, it always fell short and had no effect as expected.

Even though they had fought for several rounds, it always felt that Dragonite still had some strength left.

——It was as if the extent of the fight was determined by one's own effort and fighting attitude. This also made the Dragonite leader a little excited.

Since Dragonite wants to see it, it will let the other party see enough!

The Dragonite leader used "Dragon Claw" again, but both its power and speed were much greater than when it first used this move.

This also allowed Luo Mu to have clearer judgment.

——Sure enough, the Dragonite leader’s physical fitness is quite outstanding.

At least, he is at the same level as the main force selected from among the hundreds of people in Yasaku's Dragon Legion.

It can be said to be the well-deserved wild overlord.

But even with such an attack, Dragonite still managed to block it steadily, which made the Dragonite leader's eyes flash with surprise.

It has used almost all its strength, but even so, Dragonite remains indifferent?

Even the leader of Dragonite himself didn't realize that as time went on, his idea had changed from the initial test to a desire to explore how deep Dragonite's strength is.

In just a blink of an eye, the figures of both sides had crossed each other in the air dozens of times.

In fact, Dragonite is not as easy to deal with as it seems. With this level of attack, not to mention the attribute restraint, it is more than enough to pose a threat to it.

Even Rayquaza, Groudon, and Kyogre will be hurt and feel pain if they are attacked, let alone Dragonite.

It is not a god, nor is it invincible.

But it has a way of making it difficult for the opponent's attacks to cause effective damage.

As the aerial chase intensified, gradually, the Dragonite leader felt a little overwhelmed.

This was the first time that it felt like it had reached its limit after its physique was strengthened by magical power.

But what about the Dragonite that he is chasing?
The airflow and wind seemed to be its extended arms, wrapping around its body affectionately, helping it to soar into the blue sky.

Because the Dragonite leader also knows the "Super Speed" move, it is very clear that Dragonite is simply using the wind to assist in accelerating.

——But, even though he had used his "Super Speed", he still couldn't close the gap between him and Dragonite.

The Dragonite leader took the time to look at the white rainbow being dragged behind him, and couldn't help but fall into silence.

What happened to the agreement to first add the system and then add two?
Dragonite, which was flying freely with the "tailwind", had no idea what the Dragonite leader was thinking. It just recalled the scenes when Lugia taught it to control the wind and airflow.

Can one increase his flying speed to this level simply by using the "Tailwind" move?

In addition to being amazed, Dragonite decided to try more ideas through this rare opportunity to play freely in battle.

——At this time, what would happen if I used the "Super Speed" move using the secret book of the Dragon Taming Clan?
Just do it when you want to do it. Dragonite calms his mind and stimulates the most ordinary, but also the most common and peaceful energy in his body.

A not-so-bright white light lit up on its body, and then it was surprised to find that everything around it seemed to be caught in slow motion like a slow-motion movie.

This is an even more wonderful experience than the previous feeling of simply increasing one's own agility.

To use Luo Mu's words, Dragonite felt that this was just like the "bullet time" he described!
Dragonite blinked, tried to turn around and flew behind the Dragonite leader who seemed to have not yet reacted, and slapped it with the "Dragon Claw"!
Bang-!
In an instant, the Dragonite leader, who was flying at high speed using "Super Speed", fell from the sky like a cannonball, and landed heavily on the solid rock and soil, producing a huge noise and vibration.

The Dragonites who were watching all showed expressions of astonishment.

No, what just happened?!

Before they could sort out their thoughts, Dragonite had already dropped from the sky and was about to strike out with its second "Dragon Claw".

——It doesn't think that with the physique of the Dragonite leader, its "Dragon Claw" can lay the foundation for victory.

The fact is just as Dragonite thought.

The Dragonite leader fell to the ground and was stunned at first. Before he could figure out how he was hit, a sense of crisis that made his scales almost stand upside down came from above.

Its combat experience is the most abundant among wild Pokémon. The moment it sensed the threat approaching, it subconsciously activated its trump card.

“Hoo-ah!”

Along with the violent sound waves produced by the roar of the Dragonite leader, an invisible force directly blew away the Dragonite that was less than one meter away from it.

Some wild Dragonite and Haxorus that were nearby fell backwards one after another like wheat in a field hit by a strong wind, and looked at the Dragonite leader with even deeper awe.

This time, because he was very close and could almost feel it personally, Luo Mu was more certain of his judgment.

"Sure enough. It's an ability similar to the Overlord's aura."

Luo Mu murmured in a low voice as he watched the scene which seemed like in "Shinra Tensei" or the scene where the boss would release a shocking aura at the beginning of a boss battle in a game.

Just as he had guessed before, the roar of Dragonite was similar to the roars of the dominant Pokémon he had seen in the Alola region.

One is to call subordinates, and the other is to intimidate.

However, the abilities displayed by the Dragonite Chief are not as conspicuous as the "dominant aura", and its body shape is also normal. It can even be said that it looks older than some middle-aged Dragonites.

Moreover, the "dominant aura" is a special phenomenon limited to the Alola region.

Luo Mu had also seen some documents indicating that when a population of wild Pokémon reached a certain size, the leader leading the population would often be stronger than other Pokémon of the same kind.

But so far there is not enough evidence to show whether this strength comes absolutely from itself, or is some small miracle born from the cohesion of the entire ethnic group.

After all, there are some wild Pokémon that don't have the habit of living in groups, and they are equally powerful beyond ordinary people.

The most representative example is probably the wild overlord that occupies a large territory in the Silver Mountain in the Johto region.

However, according to the known information, the power of the Dragonite leader seems to be able to be inherited, or other Dragonites who take over the position of leader can also benefit from it.

While Luo Mu was thinking, the Dragonite that was "blown away" managed to stabilize its body in the sky, and its eyes looking at the Dragonite leader were filled with eagerness to try.

Looking at the Dragonite leader's eager look, he has already tried the combination of "Tailwind" and "Superspeed".

Can I try out the trick I just learned?
