Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

The shrewd and worldly-wise Gengar immediately made a judgment that best served its own interests.

It shook its head decisively, indicating, "That's all, that's really all."

It then floated closer, rubbed its two little paws together, and grinned, trying to squeeze out what it considered a "friendly" smile.

"Gag~ Gag!"

The moves are gone.

But humans!

You're great!

We've become friends through a fight... How about we call this a draw?

It pointed to its own body, which was neither real nor illusory and immune to physical contact, and then pointed to Xiao Zhi.

After all, you can't touch me, and I... well, I can't do anything to you for the time being.

Why risk mutual destruction?

Let's be friends, so we can talk things over if anything happens in the future!

If both sides take a step back, the future will be brighter!

"That won't work."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi shook his head, refusing decisively.

“An agreement is an agreement. We agreed that I would only help you if I beat you. Now,” he clenched his fist, his eyes serious, “we’re not done yet.”

Gengar got a little anxious and started waving its arms and legs around.

"Gag! Gag—!!"

I'm already physically immune!

No matter how strong you are or how hard your fist is, what's the use if you can't hit the target?

There's no way to calculate who wins or loses!

Besides, we're friends now. Can't you just say what's on your mind, sit down, and discuss it properly?

"really."

"I can't beat you with just strength."

Ash nodded, seemingly accepting part of Gengar's explanation.

Seeing this, Gengar felt a slight sense of relief, thinking that the other party had finally been persuaded.

But Xiaozhi changed the subject.

"But—I also have the advantage of scientific wisdom!"

Before he could finish speaking, the ground beneath Ash's feet trembled slightly, and he shot off again like an arrow.

It was still that simple and clean straight punch, aimed directly at Gengar!

"Take this scientific iron fist!"

Come again?

Didn't I already say it's useless?

Gengar sighed inwardly, overwhelmed by a profound sense of powerlessness.

Forget it, I'm tired. Anyway, it won't hurt. Let him hit me a couple of times to vent his anger. He'll stop when he realizes it's useless.

With this "give up" mentality, Gengar spreads its arms, intending to take the punch head-on, and then take the opportunity to "persuade" it a couple more times.

However, just as the fist was about to touch its purple belly—

A sudden change has occurred!

call--!

A cluster of blazing, orange-red flames suddenly erupted from Ash's fist!

Enveloping the fist, burning fiercely!

"what?!"

"Flame Fist?!"

Xiaogang and Xiaoxia screamed almost simultaneously.

Ash, Ash.

As a human, all you need is to be strong and know some Normal and Fighting-type moves.

They can pretend they didn't see it.

But Flame Fist?

Are you not even going through the motions of acting anymore?!

The fist, carrying blazing flames, slammed into Gengar's astonished face without the slightest pause!

"boom!"

A muffled thud was heard, accompanied by sparks flying everywhere.

Gengar felt a sharp pain mixed with impact and burning sensation, and its elusive body was knocked off balance by the punch.

The ghost let out a miserable scream and, like a ball that had been slapped away, fell headfirst to the ground in a sorry state!

"Flame Fist?"

Hearing their exclamations.

Xiao Zhi retracted his fist and casually flicked his wrist.

He looked at his slightly reddened fist, which was emitting wisps of heat, and shook his head, a mixture of understanding and certainty on his face.

He turned his head and corrected him in a casual tone.

"I already said it's scientific wisdom."

"Read more books, you should read more books."

"This is just the application of the most basic physics knowledge."

Xiao Gang: "???"

Xiaoxia: "???"

Physics knowledge?

What physics principle could make a fist catch fire on its own?!

"Pikachu, Pikachu!"

Pikachu gave the two of them a disdainful look.

You're making a fuss over nothing!

Does having flames on your fist make it a Flame Fist?

According to this logic, anyone could just touch a switch and generate 100,000 volts!

The mouse can see clearly.

Ash's punch did not draw upon any fire-type energy.

Judging from the "Basic Physics" knowledge that Xiao Zhi has been forcing it to learn these past few nights...

This was purely because Xiaozhi's punching speed and power reached an astonishing threshold, causing extreme and intense friction between his fist and the air.

The heat generated eventually ignited a flame.

In short—friction generates heat!

Therefore, this is definitely not some kind of fire fist.

It is a true iron fist of physics!

84. My final work!

After Xiaozhi explained it to them, Xiaoxia and Xiaogang finally managed to accept the unbelievable reality of "starting a fire by rubbing your bare hands together".

Xiaoxia subconsciously imitated Xiaozhi's previous action, waving her fist at the air, trying to feel that incredible power.

After confirming that this was not a feat that humans could accomplish.

She quietly moved closer to Xiaogang and whispered.

"I now think... even if we hadn't come here, we probably wouldn't have been turned into dolls."

After all, having a small brain and a big physique are two different things.

But when it gets this big, it's a completely different story.

Being able to create sparks by rubbing your bare hands is practically like being a superhuman.

Even ordinary superpowered individuals cannot do such a thing.

Xiao Gang did not respond immediately upon hearing this.

He remained silent, lost in deep thought.

At this moment, he felt that his past self, who had blurted out "Let's have a match sometime," was far too arrogant.

Fortunately, he later realized his mistake and firmly refused the subsequent "invitations"...

Otherwise, that punch, wrapped in firelight, might actually hit him in the face.

The one lying on the ground might just be yourself.

......

Seeing that the Gengar lying on the ground had completely stopped moving.

Xiao Zhi, who had just felt a little smug, stepped forward.

Turn it over, and you'll see that Gengar's eyes on the ground have already turned into vortexes.
