Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

He took a half step back and said in a deep voice.

"I understand! Then let's do it your way!"

"Hudi, continue."

Naz's voice remained completely calm.

Driven by her will, Alakazam's eyes shone brightly with blue light, and her powerful psychic energy transformed into an invisible giant hand that firmly grasped Gengar, who had just gotten up, and swung it violently, slamming it against the left wall!

boom!

"Gag!"

He lifted it up again and smashed it against the right-side pillar!

boom!

Gravel flew everywhere.

Gengar was like a broken doll, being manipulated and tossed about by psychic powers, struggling to defend itself, and its aura visibly weakened.

"Xiao Zhi..."

Xiaoxia clenched her fists.

Xiao Gang also looked grave.

"This is practically equivalent to her fighting in Alakazam's body herself. Alakazam itself probably doesn't even have a very strong sense of self..."

Pikachu stood atop Brock's head, its fur slightly bristling, and its cheeks crackling with electricity, already in battle ready.

They will charge out as soon as Ash gives the order.

On the high platform, Sabrina watched Gengar, who, despite being in a sorry state, was still holding on desperately and even occasionally glared back at her with a provocative look.

And a faint sense of doubt crossed my mind as I looked at the boy on the sidelines, his fists clenched, his eyes burning with ever-increasing anger, yet he never called for a stop.

What are they persisting in?

What's the point of such a hopeless struggle?

Just then—

"Now, Gengar!"

A loud roar suddenly exploded!

Ash's judgment was obtained.

Gengar, who had been constantly being used as a punching bag, was pulled back to Alakazam by psychic power the moment it was pulled in front of Alakazam.

His previously unfocused gaze suddenly sharpened, bursting forth with an astonishingly fierce light!

It has been patiently enduring, patiently waiting, and waiting for this very distance!

This was a golden opportunity that the opponent thought they had victory in their grasp, and whose mental control had become slightly slack and inertial—a fleeting moment!

"Jehovah—!!"

It let out a sinister laugh and raised its right fist, which had been gathering strength for a long time.

It slammed squarely into Alakazam's chest!

It gathers ghost-type energy and is entangled with a deeper, more profound shadow that seems to touch the very essence of the soul.

This is its most secret weapon.

Shadow Fist!

Although its power is not great, its special feature is that it targets the soul!

One punch is enough to shake the opponent's mental core and destabilize their soul!

Hu Di's whole body stiffened suddenly, and his eyes went blank for a moment.

In Sabrina's perception, the close, intuitive mental link between her and Alakazam was violently shaken by this punch, and even briefly severed!

Hudi's own soul was shaken by this punch and was shaken out of his body!

"Gengge! Genggegege!"

This move won't work on Ash...

That's not enough to deal with you!

Taking advantage of Sabrina's disconnection, Gengar directly pressured Alakazam.

After all, Alakazam's psychic powers are immense.

In front of this old devil, we are just like a toddler who possesses a powerful weapon but doesn't know how to use it!

Gengar, having gained the upper hand, relentlessly unleashed its long-suppressed anger and frustration!

It pounced, completely abandoning its ranged attack, and swung its short arms in a wide arc.

With afterimages, a chaotic set of punches, full of resentment and no technique, rained down on the stiff-moving Alakazam!

boom!boom!boom!boom!

Every punch landed squarely, with muffled thuds echoing throughout.

Hudi was forced to retreat repeatedly, almost dropping the spoon from his hand, and the blue light in his eyes dimmed rapidly.

"!"

Naz's eyes narrowed as she tried to re-secure the connection.

But Gengar's relentless close-range attacks interrupted this process.

The final uppercut slammed into Hu's chin!

"Hu....."

Hu Di let out a muffled wail and fell backward to the ground.

His eyes darted around, and he completely lost consciousness.

Gengar landed on the ground, hands on its hips, panting heavily. Its body was covered in wounds, but its eyes were full of triumphant joy.

"Well done...Thank you for your hard work."

Ash stepped forward and gently patted Gengar on the back.

"Gag!"

Gengar grinned and bumped fists with Ash.

It was also exhilarating.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhi understood what he meant with just a gesture.

Ash looked up at Sabrina, who was already standing on the platform with a surprised expression.

He paused for two seconds, then turned to his companions and said:

"Let's go."

His voice wasn't loud, but it echoed clearly in the quiet dojo.

"Winning by overdrawing on Pokémon and forcibly controlling their will... Such battles have long deviated from the original intention of trainers."

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the hall before finally settling on Naz's face.

"Pokémon are not tools, and evolution is not something that can be forcibly injected."

"Your gym, your methods... you are not worthy of my challenge, nor do you deserve a badge."

After saying that, he didn't turn back and walked straight towards the gate.

Xiaoxia and Xiaogang exchanged a glance. Although there was worry in each other's eyes, as the owners of the museum, they also shared a deep sense of identification.

They quickly caught up with Ash's pace.

go?

Naz's eyes shone brightly.

At the same time, the heavy doors of the dojo made a loud noise, as they were firmly sealed by invisible psychic power!

Sabrina's body slowly rose from the throne, her long black hair moving without wind.

She looked down at Xiao Zhi with her crimson pupils.

"The battle is not over yet."

There was no trace of joy or anger in his voice, only an unquestionable set of rules.

The voice just fell.

Hu Di, who was already unconscious in the arena, suddenly appeared in front of everyone in an extremely unnatural, puppet-like posture.

Stiffly and shakily, it "stood" up again!

Its eyes were still empty, and there were still traces of being beaten by Gengar on many parts of its body.

Anyone with eyes can see that it has long lost the ability to act independently.

"Hu...di..."

What it squeezed out of its throat were indistinct and painful syllables.

What supports its standing at this moment is the clearly visible azure blue superpower threads wrapped around its body.

The source of these threads is none other than Naz, who is suspended in the air!

"Mental shock."

As Sabrina's voice fell, Hudi mechanically raised his arm, pulled by the silk threads.

A powerful spiritual force converged and passed through the land of Hu.

It was then reshaped by Sabrina and transformed into a heavy hammer, which slammed into Gengar, who was barely floating nearby and exhausted!

This strike was swift, ruthless, and precise!

It completely surpasses the speed and precision that Alakazam could possibly achieve!

"Pikachu!!"
