You are not allowed to be a Pokémon Trainer!

Chapter 241 The bear apprentice prayed to the gods, but only the accessory trainer named [Mizuya] answered it.
[Holy crap, they're back! They're all back! That familiar feeling is back!]

[What's going on? Is the prison guard in command?]

[How can I log in when I haven't even seen the person? Is it a remote voice chat or a login from a different location?]

[Fujiki was a bit overconfident. In that situation, a single missile attack would have sufficed. Master Itachi's special attack isn't low either.]

He probably didn't expect his apprentice to be so tenacious, did he?

[Damn it, looks like the bear apprentice has absorbed it back. He's using all his skills as a drain punch again! You bastard, Lao Shui!]

[Master Xiong is awesome!! (voice cracks)]

【.】

With his dojo-level strength, Master Itachi couldn't possibly have fallen after just one [Swallow Return] and [Desperate Strike].

However, due to the near 100% life steal brought by the [Fighting Attribute] synergy when in critical condition.

This caused Xiong's apprentice to recover as if a withered tree had been revived in spring; his listless aura rapidly returned, and his complexion visibly returned quickly.

Seeing his master Itachi lying on the ground seemingly defenseless, the bear disciple's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he was about to launch an attack.

The information that Xia Chi had previously transmitted through the power of waveguide flashed through his mind again.

[Strike and disengage immediately, don't get entangled!]

Xiong's apprentice immediately suppressed his urge to rush over and finish off the enemy.

Master Itachi, who originally seemed to be leaky everywhere, now looks more like a trap everywhere.

Once the bear apprentice calmed down, he realized that if he had rushed forward, he would have been met with a combination of [See Through] and [Flying Knee Kick]!

Think carefully about what Xia Chi would do if he were directing from the sidelines.
The apprentice's mind raced, and a clear tactic instantly took shape.

If it doesn't take the initiative, I'll force it to!

Instead of advancing, Xiong's apprentice, who was implementing the defensive counter-attack strategy, retreated. With a light tap of his toes, he moved backward as fast as the wind, instantly creating a safe distance.

Once he had steadied himself, the bear disciple's eyes became serious, and the energy within his body began to circulate rapidly.

Sword dance!

As expected, seeing that his apprentice was no longer as reckless and easily fooled as before, Teng Shu clicked his tongue lightly.

He naturally couldn't stand idly by and watch his opponent strengthen, so he commanded, "Master Itachi, Aura Sphere!"

In reality, the advantages of a dual-wielder are fully revealed at this moment.

In the game, players are limited to four move slots, making it difficult to excel in both physical and special moves. However, in reality, powerful Pokémon can absolutely excel in both physical and special moves!

Facing the incoming, azure energy sphere brimming with astonishing fluctuations, Xiong Tudu neither dodged nor evaded, continuing his sword dance—

Even if you dodge, it won't help; the Aura Missile has a built-in lock-on, unless you use [Protect].

As is widely known, the skill "Guardian" is also called "Little Sword Dance".
This is obviously a joke. The main point is that in the anime, there are sometimes scenes where enhanced moves like Dragon Dance or Sword Dance can be used to block ranged attacks by rotating and dancing the body.

In reality, the effect is naturally not that exaggerated.

However, the energy vortex that naturally forms when the move is executed can still reduce the power of the attack from a distance to some extent.

The wave missile sped across the field, kicking up countless grains of sand, before striking Xiong's dancing figure with a solid thud.

The energy exploded, and the air surged!
The bear apprentice let out a muffled groan and swayed.

Although Master Itachi's special attack is not as terrifying as his physical attack, the power of this [Aura Sphere] should not be underestimated.

However, thanks to the energy reduction from [Sword Dance] and his newly recovered state, the bear disciple managed to withstand the wave of missiles!

Immediately, an extremely sharp aura accompanied by an explosion of golden light surrounded his body!
The bear apprentice's physical attack ability has been greatly enhanced!

Taking advantage of the momentum from the completed [Sword Dance], a glint flashed in the bear disciple's eyes, and his figure transformed into a wisp of light.

At several times faster than before, it charged straight at its master, Itachi, who had just launched the wave missile!
Yan returns!

Teng Shu's heart skipped a beat.

With double the counter-attack and the terrifying attack of [Sword Dance], the damage of this [Swallow Return] may not be fatal, but it can definitely tip the scales of victory completely in favor of the opponent.

After all, Master Itachi doesn't possess the exaggerated blood-sucking ability of Kuma's apprentice.

"Flying knee kick!"

Like the Swallow Return and the Wave Missile, it has a built-in lock-on function, and Fujiki makes his choice in an instant.

Offense is the best form of defense!

Since the bear apprentice has chosen to take the initiative to attack, it means that it is absolutely impossible for it to use [See Through] defense again!

------

Master Itachi's reaction speed was also extremely fast.

As soon as the vine tree gave the order, it assumed a fighting stance.

Its right knee had just been badly injured, so it replaced it with its left knee, and a burst of violent orange-red energy instantly condensed.

With unstoppable momentum, Master Itachi charged headlong into the rapidly approaching streak of light!

However, just as the two figures were about to collide violently.

A glint of light flashed in Xiong's apprentice's eyes.

I read it!
Its high-speed impact caused its body to twist at an incredible angle, not to dodge the flying knee kick, but to adjust its posture!

The [Swallow Return] energy that had been gathered around him dissipated instantly.

Instead, a deep, restrained, and pent-up power has emerged!
Teng Shu's expression instantly became extremely serious.

Masaka.
The return of the swallow is just a decoy; the real killing move is to repay double!
"Master Itachi, stop!"

By the time the vine realized this and cried out, it was too late.

boom--

A deafening roar, far more powerful than before, exploded on the beach!

Master Itachi's Flying Knee Kick slammed into his disciple Kuma's body without reservation, unleashing a devastating surge of Fighting-type energy.

But this time, Xiong's apprentice was not driven away!

Like a reef rooted in the ground not far away, it withstood this terrifying impact.

Even though he was breathing heavily and trembling all over.

At the same time, the long-accumulated power of [Double Return] was completely unleashed!
The violent fighting energy that surged into the body like a torrent was instantly amplified and transformed, and then unleashed with overwhelming force!
boom--

A terrifying torrent of crimson energy, like the annihilation of a dark star, instantly engulfed Master Itachi's body!
The immense recoil force made it feel as if it had been struck by a hundred-ton truck at high speed, sending its entire body flying uncontrollably backward, tracing a long arc in the air.

The life points gained through this [Double Return] allowed the bear apprentice, who was nearly overwhelmed by the combined attacks of the wave missile and the flying knee kick, to recover.

Sensing his master Itachi's weakened Aura, Kuma knew that the decisive moment had arrived!

"Kuma!"

With a roar full of fighting spirit, the light of [Swallow Return] shone brightly once more!

Fujiki was horrified and quickly commanded, "Master Itachi, see through it!"

But the predicament that the bear disciple had just encountered had crashed down on the head of his master, the weasel.

Master Itachi, who was flying backwards in the air and had lost control of his body, wanted to "see through" the illusion, but he was powerless to do so.

With a whooshing sound of energy tearing through the air, a figure as swift as the wind swept past Master Itachi with unparalleled precision just as he was about to land!

laugh--

A feeble, mournful cry rang out as Master Itachi crashed heavily onto the sand, rolling several times before falling completely still. He could not rise again!

[Wow! Sword Dance withstands the Aura! Double the counter with a flying knee kick! Swallow Return for the kill! Flowing fluidity!]

[Was this script written by Prisoner? Every step he took was meticulously planned to outmaneuver Tengshu!]

Master Xiong, my Superman!

I would call that flying knee kick the "turning point of World War II"!

[More than that, the two phases are like two completely different bears. One was used as a punching bag, while the other used his master Itachi as a punching bag!]

[This is definitely a case of someone using a QR code to register their account in prison!]

[The bear apprentice prayed to the gods, but only that accessory trainer with the ID [Mizuya] answered! (Growlithe doe emoji)]

Meanwhile, Xia Chi, who was rushing over while watching the live stream, smiled slightly.

He couldn't help but send a comment because he was genuinely happy for Xiong's apprentice.

[It seems like having a trainer doesn't affect Kubfu's performance at all; Xia Chi is definitely a support trainer now!]

The ID [水也] with the gold V was quickly spotted by sharp-eyed viewers.

The appearance of the main character naturally triggered another wave of frenzied activity in the bullet comments.

[Holy crap! Wild prison water has appeared!]

[A trainer who sends his bear-like apprentices to challenge the gym while secretly lounging on the lap of the magical masked cat, watching the live stream with his adorable cuddlemate, is scum!]

[Regarding self-awareness.]

[Let Sister Fa cook me two dishes, let me pet your cat, and finally give me 50,000 Alliance Coins!]

[Please, Lao Shui, give me a tutorial on how to catch legendary Pokémon! I'll really do anything for you!]

[I'm not that greedy, I just want the cat-breeding tips and information from the prison! I also want a two-meter-tall catgirl!]

Are you trying to be serious?

【.】

Seeing the comments section gradually deviating from the intended message, Xia Chi chuckled and shook his head.

Then he quickened his pace and headed towards the noisy beach battlefield.

------

On the beach.

The apprentice hunched over slightly, his chest heaving violently, unable to contain his excitement.

I did it!

Although it still relies on Xia Chi's waveguide guidance at crucial moments, what ultimately turns those ingenious tactics into victory is its own will, judgment, and execution!

It is every indomitable struggle and counterattack that was never abandoned in desperate situations!
The huge contrast created by Master Itachi's overwhelming suppression in the early stages amplified the excitement of this reversal a hundredfold!
Xiong's apprentice wanted to share this joy with Xia Chi right now, but the battle wasn't over yet.

It took a deep breath, trying to calm its surging emotions and rapid breathing, and turned its gaze back to the other side of the battlefield—

Fujiki silently recalled his master Itachi, who had lost his ability to fight.

Looking at the Poké Ball, a wry smile, tinged with both helplessness and admiration, appeared on his face.

After such a wonderful start, they ultimately failed to capitalize on it.
However, he wouldn't regret pointless things like "I shouldn't have used the flying knee kick, I should have used the wave missile."

Xiong's apprentice deserved this victory.

Teng Shu quickly adjusted his mindset, and the fighting spirit in his eyes became even more intense because of his opponent's outstanding performance.

He took out another Poké Ball from his waist with his fingertips and flicked his wrist.

"I choose you, Mushroom!"

A flash of white light, and a green mushroom sprite wearing a giant straw hat and with its tail held high appears!
Breloom. What kind of Pokémon is this?
The apprentice was completely confused.

Its knowledge of Pokémon was extremely limited, consisting only of those it had encountered on the Isle of Armor and those it had met during the two months it had followed Xia Chi.

It recognized Master Weasel because the matriarch of the martial arts school, Honey Leaf, had raised one.

But the mushroom bear apprentice really didn't recognize it at all.

This is tricky.

Xia Chi often taught, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle." Xiong's apprentice, who had always adhered to this philosophy, thought to himself.

Just when it was at its wit's end, Xia Chi's familiar voice suddenly appeared in its mind like a lighthouse in the fog.

This Pokémon is a Grass/Fighting type, so use Flying-type moves to attack it. Also, watch out for its Spore.

Flying-type moves are effective against Spore.
The crucial information, like lightning cleaving through the fog, invigorated Xiong's apprentice and greatly boosted his confidence.

However, before Xia Chi could finish conveying the message through the power of waveguide, Teng Shu had already issued his command.

"Dou Li Mushroom, Sonic Punch!"

A fist shadow, almost invisible to the naked eye, arrived with a piercing sound, reaching speeds far exceeding the speed of sound!

The Breath-shroom's fighting stance resembles that of a seasoned boxer, with its arms usually tucked short to its sides.

But when attacking, the retracted body is like a spring compressed to its limit.

The preemptive effect of [Sonic Punch] is fully utilized.

The moment Xiong's apprentice finished processing the information, the deadly fist was already upon him!
So fast!

The moment the thought flashed through Xiong's mind, his body was struck by the sonic fist.

Just as it was about to gather the energy of [Swallow Return] to retaliate, it suddenly remembered Xia Chi's reminder.

Mushroom spores!

With a quick glance, Xiong's apprentice keenly noticed that the tip of the high-raised tail of the lizard mushroom was quietly shaking off a piece of spore powder that emitted a faint glow!
really!

The bear disciple felt a chill run down his spine and immediately dispersed the Swallow Return energy that had not yet been gathered, a flash of azure light disappearing from his eyes.

see through!

Dodging the incoming mushroom spores with a sidestep, the bear apprentice frowned, and his flying-type energy condensed once more.

"Kuma!"

With a low growl, the bear apprentice's small body transformed into a white streak of light that tore through the air.

With the graceful movement of a swallow returning to its nest, carrying the secrets of the One-Strike Style, his right fist, with a 300% damage bonus, slammed into the fragile neck of the Mushroom!
boom--

The terrifying damage, four times the normal strength, bursts out instantly!
The straw mushroom let out a painful groan, its body trembling violently as it staggered backward from the slash containing sharp, flight-attribute energy.

"One more time, mushroom spores!"

Teng Shu frowned and gave another order.

Despite the excruciating pain in its body, the mushroom's tail twitched rapidly once more.

This time, the mushroom spores, covering a larger area and with a higher concentration, instantly enveloped the area where the bear apprentice had just landed, like a pale green smoke bomb!
The bear apprentice's heart sank. It tried to use [See Through] again or dodge directly, but after using [Swallow Return] with all its might, its body was in a moment of stagnation before new strength was generated.

The moment his feet touched the ground, Xiong's apprentice's entire body was swallowed up by the "spore miasma".

Tiny spores adhere to the fur in large quantities and are then inhaled by the sensitive nasal cavity.

An irresistible, overwhelming drowsiness instantly engulfed the bear apprentice's consciousness.

The bear apprentice's body went limp, his eyelids closed heavily, and he fell straight backward.

[Sleep] state is triggered instantly!
