One Piece: Trainers on the Straw Hat Pirates

Furthermore, because his opponent forfeited, his command was directly rated as a "divine move," and he received an extra bonus of 1x experience points!

"That's more like it~"

Crimson smiled slightly, looking at Lulina, who had returned to being a cold NPC after disappearing from the battle field, and was not surprised at all.

After a routine, formulaic exchange, their second opponent stepped forward once again.

A silver-haired, capable girl with skin slightly lighter than Lulina's, but still considered a dark-skinned beauty—Aya!

And like Lulina just now, Bea is also an indispensable and important figure in the Pokémon doujinshi section!

Although she doesn't have the same stunning figure as Lulina, her identity as a fighter and her silver-gray hair make her an extra favorite among a group of LSPs (Likely referring to fans of the same name).

Of course, none of this has anything to do with the current crimson color.

After all, he was long past the age of liking lowbrow entertainment.

If he wanted, countless top beauties in the entire One Piece world would want to throw themselves at him.

"Merry, it's your turn to play this time!"

After retracting the immense power from Laboon, Crimson suddenly turned around and spoke to Little Mermaid beside him.

Although Dynamaxed Labrador possesses combat power beyond its level, enough to take on everyone, battle experience cannot be shared, so naturally Labrador cannot monopolize all the experience.

"Alright!"

Upon receiving the order, Little Mermaid smiled with delight. With a flicker of her figure, as if she had walked through a ghostly space, she appeared directly on the battlefield in front of Crimson.

Laboon, who had been eliminated, reverted to his miniature form and obediently hovered behind Crimson, awaiting Meryl's battle.

Unsurprisingly, Aya also regained her senses under the battle field and began to talk with Akane.

"This time, I'm definitely going to unleash some amazing skills with my Pokémon that will leave you completely bewildered!"

Please give me your guidance!

Aya, a fighting prodigy, performed a standard fist salute, then gracefully stepped back, creating distance between herself and Akane.

His crimson smile remained unchanged: "Is that so? Then I'll look forward to it a little!"

Swah——

A flash of white light appeared, and suddenly a muscular wrestling eagle appeared in front of Cai Dou.

"Uh... a fighting-style hawkman?"

"It seems there's absolutely no need to fight this battle."

Crimson, who was still thinking about the Merry Go's Dynamax form, was suddenly stunned.

He then realized that for Bea, whose Pokémon were all Fighting-type, the ship spirit Merry could easily defeat her without using much effort.

Ghost type, immune to all Normal and Fighting type moves.

Unless a Pokémon has the Mind's Eye ability, any Normal or Fighting-type Pokémon is no match for Merry.

Even though at this point, Merry was still more than ten levels below the Pokémon on the other side.

As it turns out, Crimson's guess was correct!

And the outcome of the battle was even more outrageous than he had imagined!

Bea, this genius fighting girl, has only one Pokémon, Hawlucha, which is a Fighting/Flying type. All of her subsequent Pokémon are single Fighting types.

Even in the Pokémon world, which is full of die-hard fans, this is considered to be quite pure.

Ultimately, although these Pokémon knew some moves of other types, all their efforts were in vain in the face of the elusive Little Merry.

And so, Red didn't even get a chance to give Merry a chance to Dynamax before Merry, who was only level 52, defeated Bea.

"Hopefully, our next opponent will step up!"

After thinking it over, Crimson decided not to let Merry go, at least not until Merry had used Dynamax once.

And so, they soon faced their third opponent in this battle...

Kibana, the Gym Leader of the Motogakure Stadium in Motogakure City!

Skip the unnecessary preamble, the battle is about to begin!

Raihana is a rare trainer in the Pokémon world who is proficient in Dragon-type Pokémon.

At least, he is far more skilled than the legendary Dragon Tamer, Du.

Because of his six Pokémon, five of them are Dragon-type.

Only a coal turtle, which somehow managed to sneak in, broke the neat and orderly formation.

Coincidentally, Merry's first opponent was Coal Tortoise.

"A single Fire-type Torkoal? This time, it won't be an easy opponent to deal with!"

After glancing at their opponent's performance, Crimson didn't hesitate at all and directly touched the Pokémon Bracelet, triggering the Max Power hidden there.

"Ready to go, Merry!!!"

"Leave it to me!!!"

Although her opponent was of a higher level, Little Meli showed no signs of stage fright.

She's been through thick and thin with the Straw Hat crew all along. Her fighting skills might not be that high, but if she doesn't even dare to fight someone stronger, what kind of member is she to be a member of the Straw Hat Pirates!

"Merry, Max Evolution!!!"

Boom!

A surge of immense power erupted forth, rushing wildly into Melly's body.

In an instant, as expected, a dark vortex formed by the Dynamax energy appeared in the sky above the arena.

And in the blink of an eye, Little Merry completed her Max Evolution.

Suddenly, a haughty little girl with her arms crossed and standing confidently appeared behind Crimson.

Crimson also quickly turned around to look.

After Dynamaxing, Little Meli looks like a child, except that at this moment, she has become a giant child.

The golden cloak swayed in the air, accompanied by a mischievous grin that was hard to miss from beneath the hood.

After Dynamaxing, Little Merry seemed to transform from a well-behaved girl loved by everyone into a child leader with a slightly rebellious spirit.

Battle is imminent!

After evolving, Meli has more health, but her larger size also makes her easier to hit.

Fortunately, after Dynamaxing, Merry's energy also became more abundant.

On the other hand, Torkoal is a typical physical defense expert, while Merry is a typical special attacker.

Its greatest advantage had no effect on Merry.

"Merry, use the Strange Ray!!!"

Sizzle!

A surge of eerie ghostly energy instantly coalesced in front of Melly, forming a dazzling sphere of light, which she then unleashed in a wave-like motion directly onto the battlefield below.

"What!?"

When Chibana first encountered this strange and unusual light, he was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly issued an order.

"Coal Turtle, use Blazing Abyss!!!"

The strange beam travels at extremely high speeds, and although it does not cause harm, it can inflict confusion on Pokémon 100% of the time.

Therefore, Qibana immediately had Coal Turtle use Fire Abyss, which could inflict a burning status on the opponent with 100% success rate.

Although using this move against a large Dynamax Pokémon will consume a lot of Torkoal's stamina.

However, compared to inexplicably failing and being forced to retreat in a state of chaos, at least the burning status can inflict damage on the opponent 100% of the time.

bake!!!

In its confused state, Torkoal mishandled a Flamethrower, causing it to explode in its own mouth. Even Torkoal, known for its stamina, could not withstand the prolonged damage and collapsed to the ground in a daze.

"How are you, little Meryl? Everything's alright, isn't it!"

Seeing that he had finally managed to wear down one of the opponent's Pokémon, a look of joy flashed in his crimson eyes.

After all, a difference of more than ten levels is not a small amount.

Merry's ability to defeat her opponent, besides the boost from Dynamax, is more a testament to her exceptional talent.

With its level 52 stats alone, it's comparable to a level 60+ Gym Leader Pokémon.

"As expected of you!"

Raihana, having recalled Torkoal, exclaimed in admiration. The next moment, he summoned the second Pokémon to appear.

A level 64 Goodra with a single Dragon type.

The battle continues.

Raihana displayed the excellent qualities of a Gym Leader-level Trainer, his performance unaffected by the recent defeat, and he still shouted with high spirits:

"Sticky Dragon, use Meteor Shower!!!"

"Such a powerful move right from the start?"

He raised a brow, his face flushed red.

Once Gigantamaxed, Merry has virtually no chance of escaping the opponent's wide-range attacks.

In addition, Dragon-type Pokémon have far greater resistance to status conditions than regular Pokémon, so using the same strategy will no longer be very effective.

Good thing...

Little Meryl's methods don't stop there!

Just as countless energy meteors were about to rain down on Little Mermaid below, Crimson suddenly shouted:

"Little Mermaid, change form!!!"
