Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

A clear expression finally appeared on his frozen face.

Somber, unbelievable.

This person... his physical attributes, his strength, his speed, his resistance to mental attacks...

What exactly happened?!

Without a moment to think, Ash charged forward once more.

Naz raised her hands slightly, her fingers spread wide.

hum-

The immense superpowers erupted with full force, like an invisible, deep-sea pressure, crashing down on Ash as he charged forward from all directions!

crunch...

Xiao Zhi's sprinting figure suddenly stopped.

It felt like being stuck in sticky glue, or like carrying a heavy burden.

The air around him distorted, and the ground beneath his feet cracked inch by inch under the pressure.

"Ash!"

Xiaoxia was horrified and couldn't help but gasp. The sheer scale of this psychic suppression was suffocating to behold!

"What terrifying superpowers!"

Xiao Gang was also sweating.

This was the first time he had seen Ash's offensive weaken!

"Pikachu—!!"

Pikachu was extremely anxious. It unleashed a Thunderbolt, tearing through the air and blasting towards Sabrina in mid-air, trying to interrupt her spellcasting and save Ash from the predicament!

However, Sabrina, who was focused on maintaining area suppression, didn't even bother to defend.

The sheer flow of spiritual energy around him easily deflected and neutralized the powerful 100,000 volts, leaving only faint ripples.

In the arena, Xiao Zhi gritted his teeth, and the veins on his forehead throbbed.

This overwhelming sense of oppression... reminded him of when he was still at home.

It's been such a long time!

It's not just the Pokémon that have been moving forward, taking on challenges, and making progress during this time!

"Ugh... Ah—!!"

Ash let out a low growl.

Despite the terrifying mental pressure that could cause an ordinary person to faint instantly, he actually took a step forward!

Then comes the second step, the third step...

Although the pace was slow, each step was heavy and firm, leaving deep footprints on the ground.

His eyes were fixed on Natsumi in the air.

The flames burning inside couldn't be frozen even by superpowers.

"How is this possible..."

Sabrina's heart trembled more deeply, and she couldn't help but increase her output once again.

However, although the boy struggled to walk, he was never truly overwhelmed.

Even after the initial pause, he seemed to begin to adapt to the terrifying pressure, adjusting the rhythm of his breathing and exertion.

Xiao Zhi took a deep breath and exerted force from his waist and legs—

Despite the immense psychic power, he started running again!

Although not as swift as at the beginning, the charging posture carried an indomitable determination!

The target remains Sabrina in the air!

Naz's figure blurred again.

Instant teleportation is activated, and the user appears at the other end of the field.

Ash missed his target, stopped, slightly out of breath, and quickly scanned the area, locking onto Sabrina's new location.

He did not immediately launch that difficult charge again.

Instead, his sharp gaze swept across the surroundings, finally settling on a thick stone pillar supporting the dome of the dojo not far away.

The stone pillar required two people to encircle it and appeared to be indestructible.

"What is Ash doing?!"

Xiao Gang had a bad feeling.

Ash took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and then charged towards the stone pillar!

He spread his arms wide, like a giant bear embracing, tightly gripping the cold, rough stone pillar!

"drink--!!"

A deafening roar erupted from his chest!

He moved with perfect harmony between his waist and stance, his entire body's power flowing like a river, coursing through each joint, rooted in the ground from the soles of his feet, twisting through his waist and abdomen, and finally reaching his arms!

creak...crack...

A sickeningly loud cracking sound rang out as the rocks split open!

Under Naz's slightly dazed gaze, and under Xiaoxia and Xiaogang's dumbfounded stares—

That massive stone pillar, which required two people to hug and seemed indestructible, was actually broken, snapped, and lifted off the ground by Xiao Zhi from its base where it was connected to the ground!

Gravel and dust fell in a flurry.

Ash hugged the heavy stone pillar, his body slumping slightly from the weight, but his spine remained straight!

"They're back! They're all back!"

Xiaoxia covered her mouth.

She recalled the first time she met Ash.

As if responding to her memories—

call out!

A Poké Ball on Misty's waist opened automatically, and Staryu spun out and landed on the ground, its jewel-like core gleaming with excited light.

Brother!

That's it!

Are they going to recreate that legendary scene?!

The starfish even poked Xia's leg with one of its tentacles. Xia was also staring in amazement.

He gestured for her not to just look, but to take a picture.

The roof of the dojo immediately began to sway as the stone pillar was removed.

Ash hugged the stone pillar, weighing it in his hand and assessing its weight and feel.

Then, his eyes widened in fury, and he roared in battle once more!

"Ughh ...

The muscles in his arms were bulging to their limit, and the veins were coiled like writhing dragons!

He swung the heavy stone pillar halfway around in front of him, using the momentum to exert force, and then, like throwing a javelin, hurled the stone pillar with all his might towards where Naz was in the air!

Ugh—!

The stone pillar tore through the air with a low, terrifying howl, and a huge shadow descended, rushing straight towards Natsumi with a horrifying momentum that seemed capable of destroying everything!

This strike was devoid of any skill; it was purely an outpouring of power and momentum!

Sabrina used all her telekinesis.

Faced with such a purely physical attack, her psychic powers could cope, but she would still need to concentrate a considerable amount of mental energy to block or deflect it.

She raised her hand, and a surge of immense mental power erupted forth, meeting the oncoming stone pillar head-on, attempting to shatter it piece by piece in mid-air.

Her attention was mostly drawn to the imposing stone pillar.

His mental energy was focused on the instant he could react to that brute force attack—

Below!

Ash's figure followed closely behind the shadow cast by the stone pillar, like a ghost.

They charged forward again, tearing through the air along the stone pillar and drawing away most of Naz's psychic defenses!

Naz had just used her telekinesis to shatter the pillar piece by piece.

The boy's face and his fist were rapidly approaching!

"!"

She was startled and prepared to use teleportation again.

However, just as her mind focused and the space around her began to fluctuate—

Buzz! Whoosh!

Two attacks came almost simultaneously!

A flash of ice light, a surge of electricity.

These two attacks might not be powerful enough to harm her, but their purpose was clear—

Interference! Delay! Interrupt spellcasting animation!

Naz frowned, her mind racing, and she used a portion of her mental energy to instantly create two mental barriers around her.

Bang! Sizzle!

The Freeze Ray and the 100,000 Volt collided with the mental barrier, generating ice shards and sparks, and were successfully blocked.
