Master Craftsman of the Elven World

Chapter 310 Pokémon Iron Fist Tournament
The Giant King, now possessing perfect power, has experienced a surge in strength, so much so that his magnetic field has rotated through ninety-nine heavens, making him unstoppable!

If its ability were changed to Strongman, it would probably be even more terrifying!
"It's fixed! This power looks even more terrifying than when I first saw it."

Kiku was sweating profusely when he looked at Moss: "Although you and this giant Pokémon seem to be friends, this is Mount Ross."

"To put it bluntly, what should we do with the Giant King next? I don't mind it staying here, since it was here first, but my company's excavation work on Mount Ross will not stop."

"If we continue the excavation work, it is very likely to disturb its rest."

Mount Rosso is nominally Kiku's property. Although the concept of "property" is merely a value term added by human society and is completely foreign to Pokémon, Kiku believes that Giant King should be able to understand it.

This guy doesn't look like an ordinary Pokémon; he must also possess extraordinary intelligence and social skills.

If the ancient giant king considered this place to be the "property" of the ancient city, then it's quite normal for the ownership to change hands after 3000 years, right?
Old Master Ju had something on his mind.

Will this giant king suddenly pull out an ancient land deed from somewhere?

Lightmoss glanced at Regigigas, and the Giant King raised his hand.

[It's alright. This is the resting place built for us by the people of Sun City. My subordinates also slumber in different worlds. As long as we don't dig into the Moon Gate, everything else is fine.]

[Even, if you want to train, you can come here and challenge me.]

Regigigas has regained some of his former power and eliminated the slow-start trait, so he's in a very good mood now!
Moreover, unlike the one in the Snow Peak Temple, the Giant King of Unova once coexisted with the humans of the Ancient City. It has a greater understanding of the psychology of human society, and perhaps because it possesses the power of the stars, its rationality is also far superior to that of its kind.

This is the feel of moss.

After all, the one at the Snow Peak Temple has a terrible temper when he wakes up, and he doesn't care about anything when he goes berserk.

As for the temperaments of the Giant Kings in other regions, that cannot be determined in the game.

Lightmoss: "It said it doesn't matter, as long as you don't enter the Moon Gate, and trainers are welcome to come here and challenge it."

Fighting King Lian Wu's eyes lit up immediately: "Oh! A trial from ancient giants! That sounds interesting! I'm getting excited!"

Lightmoss nodded: "The Giant King has regained some of its power, and it also wants to move its body around a bit."

Because I lost the slow start, my senses about the world have become more acute, and the days when I would pretend to be a statue and sleep all the time are basically over.

Being able to repeatedly battle legendary Pokémon can quickly improve one's strength. Moreover, when Giant King appeared before, the immense pressure he exerted made even Elite Four member, Wu, feel powerless against him.

Speaking of which, what type is Giant King? If it's white, it should be a Normal type. As a Fighting-type expert, it's really not right that it was intimidated by a Normal-type Pokémon.

This made Lian Wu begin to reflect.

My own spiritual practice is still inadequate!
But then again, this is the King of Giants!

"Phew, it would be great if you don't mind. To be honest, our workers also work and live with Pokémon."

Kiku took off his hat and breathed a sigh of relief: "Because Pokémons are constantly digging in the mountains, we have cooperated with them to develop this mountain and have formed a deep friendship. If we can no longer develop the mine, we will be in a lot of trouble."

"Boss Ju, it's surprising that you can speak so calmly." Feng Lu was somewhat surprised, while Boss Ju was quite displeased:

"Was I the kind of person who often got angry? Besides, the mountain is human-made, but Pokémon have lived here for much longer than us, haven't they?"

"Speaking of which, the Ross Mountain incident is also thanks to you!" Boss Kiku smiled at Hikari: "I knew it, with you here, there wouldn't be any problems! It's the same in Ancient City, and it's the same in Ross Mountain!"

"Well then, even though I'm injured right now, we agreed to have our duel here! Ah, but your Pokémon look a bit weak."

Kiku's gaze fell on the three remaining balls on Hikari's waist: "There are still three left! It seems you and Champion Alder are not people who use the storage system much!"

"Official trainers are only allowed to carry six Pokémon, but you brought nine Poké Balls?"

“Originally there were ten, and a Sapling, right? But that’s Mr. Vado’s Pokémon.” Fenglu smiled and suddenly said to Kiku, “But shouldn’t the gym battle at the Fanbado Gym be held in Fanbado City? This is Fuyuki City, you know.”

The girl soaring through the sky looked at the moss with expectant eyes:

"After watching the previous battles, I'm eager to try it myself!"

"Huh? Feng Lu, are you trying to steal this match from me?! I made an appointment first!" Boss Ju was immediately displeased!

Wanlong: "Actually, I also sent out a challenge, but it was rejected. Now that the battles are over, how about we have a match?"

"Ugh! You guys!" Boss Ju was truly speechless!
It has always been the challengers who take the initiative to challenge the gym.

Today, the gym leader and the Elite Four took the initiative to ask others to fight!

They ended up colliding!

Boss Ju was furious: "Don't you guys have any sense of order? Here's the deal, Brother Guangtai, you decide who you want to fight!"

Guangtai's expression turned strange.

Let me decide who I'll be fighting against?
Oh my god. How did things turn out like this?!
Feng Lu looked on expectantly: "Since this is Fubuki, it's definitely better to fight against the local guild master, and Kiku-sama is tired too."

Wanlong puffed out her cheeks: "I've been waiting for this for a long time. If we can do it again, this material collection will be perfect!"

Boss Ju: "Don't underestimate me! I'm in great shape; a little sudden fighting won't bring me down!"

Lian Wu silently tied up the unconscious members of the Plasma Group and, together with the other workers brought by Boss Ju, piled them up in the corner.

"Ahem!" Lian Wu coughed. "Since we're going to fight anyway, how about a two-person duel?"

"If you win, you can get two gym badges at the same time."

Everyone was taken aback. Feng Lu, with her hands behind her back, asked with some confusion, "But there are five people here."

Lian Wu: "I will not participate in this battle. Although I would like to compete, there will be plenty of opportunities, so I will just be the referee."

He already had a plan in mind.

“If you’re a fighter, you’d definitely be interested in that special match.” Lian Wu looked at Guang Tai, then bowed: “First of all, I want to express my gratitude to you on behalf of my mentor.”

"Even the Heavenly King Lianwu, what are you doing?"

Guangtai was taken aback, but Wanlong quickly grabbed her arm: "It's alright, it's alright! I'm telling you, Lianwu is Adeker's disciple. Because of the secret medicine you made, the champion's ace survived, which inadvertently averted a major problem!"

"Lian Wu is thanking you because of this matter."

"That's right. Team Plasma attacked Master Ardek about Volcarona, and at the same time, they manipulated public opinion, making Master Ardek increasingly unable to tolerate the responsibilities of being the champion. It was at that time that you appeared."

Lian Wu let out a breath: "Actually, that online exchange, especially your shop, was something I helped Master Adek find."

"Although it was just a last resort, the result was unexpected! Master Adek is not very good at using the internet, and I, as his disciple, usually do it for him."

The moss understood now.

The fact that Adek went online was already a bit strange. I had previously speculated that someone might be using his account on my behalf. It turns out it was Lian Wu, so that makes sense.

"It's alright. I'm a craftsman, and selling various goods is my job. I'd be happy to help if I can."

"But you didn't originally have any useful ideas."

Lian Wu laughed heartily:
"After all, we've tried all sorts of panaceas and vitality boosters. If even these expensive medicines can't save us, then we usually have to resort to folk remedies. But unfortunately, there's no one like that in the United States. When it comes to traditional doctors who understand pharmacology, Master Adek is the best."

"Although my master has temporarily disappeared, I, as his disciple, can somehow sense that he is alright. After Volcarona recovered, he became very energetic and claimed that he wanted to share the joy of being with Pokémon with the world before leaving the League."

"I believe that at that time, he must have thought about all the things that happened in the past, and after careful consideration, he sincerely wanted to do something, which is why he left."

Lightmoy exhaled: "That's right, Aldak is indeed traveling right now, I already know that."

"He'll be back soon, maybe."

Lian Wu nodded slightly, a confident smile on his face: "Master will never fail, he's the champion! There's no need for me to worry too much!"

"Therefore, your help is crucial! Without you, Master's state of mind might collapse! So no amount of thanks can express my gratitude. After much thought, I can only convey my thanks in one thing!"

“In the past, in pursuit of power, and as a martial artist, I traveled to every corner of the world until I met Master Adek, and only then did I begin to understand that inner strength is the true strength.”

"But I have searched the world for many martial arts manuals. If you are also a fighter, these precious rare books will definitely be of help to you!"

Lian Wu took out a skill learning device:

"This is a small token of my appreciation. The move learning device, True Qi Blast, is a powerful technique."

"I didn't bring the special martial arts manual with me; it's a secret martial art called 'Combo Scroll - Flying Dragon Scroll'!"

Guangtai took the CD containing the move learning tool.

The True Qi Bullet, commonly known as the Luck Bullet, has a high power output of 120, but its hit rate is only 70%, and it often misses, hence the name.

Most Fighting-type Pokémon have high Attack and low Special Attack, so much so that Focus Blast was once considered a useless move, generally used as a coverage move. Moreover, the users are often not Fighting-type Pokémon, but rather Pokémon like Alakazam, Blastoise, or even Gardevoir.

However, Focus Blast is a very good move for Lucario, the evolved form of Riolu.

In reality, aside from sure-hit attacks like wave missiles, no matter how many hits you get, they can all be dodged by the amazing skill "Quick Dodge," so a 70% hit rate is actually irrelevant.

Just like the True Qi Fist, a master can gather energy and unleash it instantly in one go. For example, among the three Divine Pillars of the Pyramid Pharaoh Era, Regirock's specialty is the True Qi Fist, which can take down any challenger with a single punch.

"My training at Mount Ross is essentially to hone my mind and will. Chi is a power that everyone possesses within their body, and in Pokémon, it is classified as Fighting."

Lian Wu explained, "Do you know about the Pokémon Medicham? Through long periods of training and meditation while enduring hunger, it has reached the point where it can see life energy and awaken its sixth sense, merging with the mountains and fields to eliminate its own aura."

"True Qi is a manifestation of life energy. In the distant Kalos region, there are legends of terrifying Pokémon that can steal life energy."

"And in a more distant land, there is said to be a special Pokémon that can enter the shadow of another person, mimic their movements and strength, and understand the feelings of the person it enters. In the process of mimicking, it becomes stronger than the original. It once entered the shadow of a master of martial arts to copy the opponent's movements and eventually learned some ultimate martial arts secrets."

Although the Pokémon world is filled with all sorts of supernatural and bizarre things, putting aside supernatural powers and spiritual abilities, even the "supernatural" powers represented by Fighting and Normal types possess many special abilities.

Life energy, true energy, even wave guidance, as well as the pure mind mentioned by the Three Sword Saints, and the profound mysteries of various martial arts.

Compared to other special abilities, the power of fighting attributes can be obtained through years of training, making it the most accessible ability. However, there are not many people who aspire to become fighters.

Moreover, the upper and lower limits of martial arts are extremely exaggerated. There are countless four kings of fighting attributes. Some people, even if they have practiced martial arts for many years, cannot avoid being easily defeated by superpowered people.

For example, Mr. Taketoku, the karate master of the Kanto region, lost to Sabrina in a very decisive manner.

"I have traveled to many regions and met martial artists of different schools. I have constantly exchanged and learned from them, which has made me stronger in both body and mind. This is my life goal!"

"Therefore, I would like to invite you to participate in a special competition, which will be a grand event for fighters from all over the world."

Guangtai pondered, "Uh, could it be the P1 Fighting Championship?"

Anyway, it shouldn't be the East George tournament.

Lian Wu laughed: "So you know about the P1 Fighting Championship! That's right, it's one of the grand events for fighters! But what I'm talking about isn't the P1 tournament, which is usually held at the end of the year, but this year is a bit special."

"The Johto region has taken over this special event, and P1 will be incorporated as a major component of it! It's called the Pokémon All-Star Tournament! The venue is located in the northern part of Goldenrod City in the Johto region!"

"There are a total of ten events in the competition, and you don't need to register for all of them. It is the largest world-class event outside of the regional alliance competitions!"

"In addition to the hefty prize money, the winner will also receive a special 'Legendary Herb' as a prize! It is said to be a legendary medicine brought from a distant world by a mythical Pokémon named Celebi in ancient times, capable of curing any disease or injury!"

"That was originally my goal, but... there are many skilled fighters, such as Shiba from Kanto and Masted from Galar, so it will be very difficult to win the championship. Besides, the competition is held too late, and my master's Volcarona won't last until then."

"As for the part about fighters, it combines the original ring events and P1 fighting games, and it's called the Pokémon Tekken Tournament!"
