Pokémon: I picked up a reborn Eevee at the start of the game.

So, accept the consequences of recklessness!

He shouted, "Nido, use brute force and finish her off in one go!"

"Nido!"

Nido, who had been lying in wait, lowered his head slightly, ready to unleash his power, and then let out a domineering roar.

Nidoran wasn't particularly tall, not even as tall as his trainer, but he was incredibly imposing in front of Eevee, who was less than half a meter tall.

Her entire body was tense, as if she were pouring all her strength into this one strike.

Brute force is a desperate, all-or-nothing tactic; after using it, physical attack and physical defense capabilities may even be reduced.

However, high risk, high reward—a move that could be considered a powerful Fighting-type attack could be devastating if it hits a Normal-type Eevee.

This is likely to set a new record for the first-ever decisive blow in the history of the Bogaman Cup final.

As Ibrahimovic, showing no signs of slowing down, got closer and closer to Nidoran, the audience's hearts were involuntarily in their throats.

Is the game already over before it's even begun?

…………

As Nido grew larger and larger in his eyes, Ibuki felt his heart pounding faster than ever before.

Not scared, but excited.

It's been a long time since I've felt this way, giving it my all. Previous opponents, whether it was Axew or that Scyther, were powerful, but none of them gave Eevee this adrenaline rush.

She knew perfectly well that if she were hit by Nido's brute force, she would have no chance of continuing to fight.

But it was precisely this thrill of walking on the edge of danger that made her thinking calmer than ever before.

Saliva-covered fangs, dagger-like claws, a body covered in hard scales, and densely packed venomous spikes along its sides.

In the blink of an eye, Nido's movements and everything about her body seemed to be slowed down several times in Ibrahimovic's eyes.

You are indeed very strong, but I have still found your weakness!

A glint flashed in Ibuki's eyes, and she slightly adjusted her pace. When she was only a few steps away from Nidoran, she suddenly increased her speed again.

The sudden change startled Nido, who not only didn't slow down but accelerated instead.

How dare you!

Feeling slighted, Nido stepped forward, preparing to deliver a powerful punch.

But she didn't know that Ibrahimovic's sudden change in speed and rhythm was precisely to create this opportunity!

As the fist glowing white light drew ever closer, Ibrahimovic changed the pace of his footwork.

To the disbelief of Nido and the entire audience, her speed was elevated to a whole new level!

Nidoran had no time to react and could only watch helplessly as Eevee, who was almost upon him, passed right under his massive fists.

But this tiny distance feels like an insurmountable chasm.

…………

"Boom——"

A deafening roar erupted from the arena, making it hard for the audience to believe that the sound originated from a baby cup competition.

The series of events that just occurred happened in a flash, and almost no one was sure whether Nido's brute force had actually hit Ibrahimovic.

A light dust settled in, and the scene on the rocky ground was finally revealed to everyone.

Nido slammed his fists into the ground, his sharp claws creating cracks in the hard rock.

The audience gasped in shock; the full force of that brute-force attack was terrifying!

No, that's not the key point. The key point is...

Did Ibrahimovic dodge it?

She managed to evade it, but where is she now?

Looking around, all you see on the field are Rock and Nidoqueen.

Not only were the viewers baffled, but even Nidoran looked around at the vanished Eevee.

Finally, some sharp-eyed viewers spotted Ibrahimovic's small figure.

"Eevee was under Nidoran's tail behind him, holy crap, when did it get there?!"

"I think I just saw it, it was a sliding tackle! Master Yi slid through it!"

"Amazing! Now it's Master Yi's turn to fight back!"

"It feels like Master Yi planned everything from the very beginning. Was he out of control? I was just pretending!"

"High-level hunters often appear as prey!"

…………

Viewers with an omniscient perspective can see it clearly, but Nidoran, who is in the thick of it, remains oblivious.

She only realized what was happening when the little blond guy shouted from behind, "Nidoqueen, Eevee is under your tail!"

But by then, it was too late.

If we were to pinpoint the most vulnerable spot on Nidoran, whose entire body is covered in scales as tough as iron armor, it would be those few places with holes.

For example, the eyes, mouth, ears, and certain indescribable features on the face, which Eevee is very close to.

"Buyi!"

Nido heard a sharp, delicate shout from behind her, and then she felt an unprecedented pain in all the battles she had ever experienced.

Heart-wrenching, excruciating pain, a kind of pain that makes your smile fade.

"Nido—"

Nido threw his head back and roared, not only to vent his physical pain but also to unleash his deep rage.

Ibrahimovic really enraged her.

"After Nidoran, use Poison Tail!"

The trainer's command came at the right time, and Nido immediately channeled the strongest poison-type energy in his body to his tail.

Its originally light blue tail was instantly dyed a heart-wrenching deep purple.

The Pokémon's physical abilities are still formidable; even while wracked with excruciating pain, Nidoran still managed to unleash its move.

Her thick, long purple tail swept across like a spear, and Eevee, which hadn't run far, could only jump up helplessly, trying to dodge Nidoqueen's venomous tail in a fit of rage.

"After Nido, pull upwards!"

It has to be said that the trainers who made it to the finals are truly skilled. When Nidoqueen used Poison Tail, she couldn't see what was behind her, so the little blonde dog acted as her eyes.

The venomous tails that were sweeping across the ground lifted up and then came up with a giant windmill.

Eevee couldn't fly after all, and couldn't dodge it. It was slapped four or five meters away by the powerful tail.

"Nido!"

Having avenged his great grudge, Nido roared again, then turned and walked towards where Ibu was.

Watching Eevee struggle to his feet, Nido once again gathered fighting energy in his fists.

This time, let's see how you dodge this brute force!

Chapter 67 At that moment, she transformed into light.

Kanto region, Ikebana city.

In the hotel room, Xia Chen saw Professor Oak and Brock off and stretched.

"Phew, I finally figured it out. I completely understand why the quality of the Beauty Cube varies, and I even met Professor Oak. This seminar wasn't a complete waste."

Inside the fish tank, listening to Xia Chen's mutterings, Ugly Fish exhaled a string of relieved bubbles, thinking to itself that it was finally over.

After binge eating these past two days, I feel like I don't want to eat energy cubes again this month.

[Ding~ Congratulations, host! Your beauty level has reached 200 points. You are one step closer to evolving into Milotic!]

Forget it, just pretend I was talking nonsense in order to evolve into Milotic.

"Go to sleep, go to sleep. After you've had your sleep, we'll go back to Donghuang. I'm sorry you had to suffer these past few days, Ugly Fish."

Xia Chen patted the fish tank and greeted the ugly fish before lying down on the bed.

"No, I feel like I forgot to do something. Ugly Fish, is it related to you?"

Startled awake from his deathbed, Xia Chen did a somersault like a carp, frowning as he asked Ugly Fish.

The pufferfish shook its head. It had no desires and only wanted to evolve into Milotic. What could possibly happen to it?

Xia Chen was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly realized, "I'm going to beat Ibrahimovic in this match!"

Xia Chen was busy yesterday and didn't have time for a video call, so Mingyi specially sent him a message to remind him to watch Ibrahimovic's final the next day.

I was so busy today that I almost forgot about Xia Chen.

Xia Chen took out his phone and saw that it was not yet 10:10. He breathed a sigh of relief. The competition should have just started, and there was still time.

…………

"Sigh, Master Yi did his best, but the difference in strength is still too great. If Nido were to touch him again, he would be gone."

"Master Yi's smooth positioning, superb first reading, and wonderful maneuvers were truly a feast for the eyes. However, Nidoran just swung her tail directly at him, and there was no way to break through it."

"Queen Nido: Luckily, I was one step ahead.jpg"

"This is only because Nidoran's physical attack was reduced after using brute force; otherwise, Eevee would be in even worse shape. Forced Nidoran is really powerful!"

"Looks like the next brute force attack will end the game. Sigh, brothers, let's give them a shout-out for a glorious defeat."

Seeing the barrage of comments scrolling across the screen, Xia Chenxin, who had just entered the live stream, immediately became anxious.

It seems like Ibrahimovic is at a disadvantage?

The dense barrage of comments completely obscured the view of the match, so Xia Chen quickly turned it off.

But the scene that appeared on the screen the next second made Xia Chen extremely anxious.
