Pokémon, Ash's art style is off!

This is a huge blow to Ash!

"Can...can we win?"

Lillie's voice was barely audible, and her green eyes were filled with worry.

Her fair, delicate hands gripped the pendant tightly around her chest, as if it could give her some strength.

"We will win!"

281. Naza would absolutely not be able to stand it!

Will we win?

Upon hearing this...

Xiao Mao glanced disdainfully at Nemo, who was clenching her fists and even more excited than the players on the field, who had just said those words.

What kind of rubbish has Xiao Zhi been passing on to?!

You know nothing, yet you're spouting nonsense?

She probably hasn't even faced a single challenge from that girl, Naz, yet she dares to say things like "we'll win."

Say something.

After these two days of personal training, Xiaozhi didn't dare to make any promises to anyone at this critical juncture!

The more he learned about Naz, the more alarmed he became.

This person is strong in every way!

Leaving aside his many years of experience as a dojo owner.

With her superpowers, there's nothing that can be compensated for by "mortal means" like attribute advantages or tactical arrangements.

He and Ash had simulated the game three or four times in private, experimenting with various counter-strategies over and over again, but they still couldn't achieve a win rate of more than 30%!

Ultimately, they discovered a weakness in her that wasn't exactly a weakness...

All I can say is that superpowers are just too overpowered!

.......

In the field.

Two people who had hurt each other in the past finally stepped into the battle zone at the referee's signal and stood on opposite sides once again.

Today, Naz wore a well-tailored black fitted long coat with the neckline slightly open, revealing a section of her sharply defined collarbone.

The hem of her coat barely covered the top of her thighs, and underneath were a pair of matte black stockings that completely covered her straight and slender legs.

However, the fact that she was wearing a pair of long boots was a slight disappointment for some discerning viewers.

"No way! It's absolutely no way!"

"You guys say that Naza usually floats around and doesn't walk much, so wearing boots is redundant, isn't it better to go barefoot!"

"Exactly! Even a gentleman like me needs to be wary!"

"Besides, it's so stuffy, what if you get athlete's foot from suffocating like this!"

"Wouldn't that mean the flavors would be even more complex...!?"

Before he could finish speaking, the people who had spoken earlier froze on the spot.

Their movements varied, their expressions frozen, resembling abstract sculptures from some avant-garde art exhibition.

This startled Xiao Gang, who was just about to express his unique insights, so much so that he stood at attention.

His Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and he swallowed the rest of his words.

A bead of cold sweat quietly slid down his temple.

Thank goodness, I managed to resist the temptation!

.......

On the battlefield, Naz turned her gaze away.

On her delicate face, a blue light flickered in her crimson eyes.

With her long hair cascading down, she appeared less sharp and more composed than usual, her demeanor more enigmatic.

Face this power once again.

Ash, who had been excited for a while, stared intently at Sabrina, his eyes burning with desire.

Sensing that scorching gaze, Natsumi, who had been calmly making her move just moments before, instantly tensed up.

Not only did my breathing suddenly become shorter, but my heart deep in my chest also felt like it had been forcibly accelerated.

"Thump! Thump! Thump thump!!"

The Emperor Engine has been restarted.

Her heartbeat pounded against the walls of her chest, and she could even feel the veins in her temples throbbing.

If she hadn't kept telling herself that there were still battles to fight, she probably would have subconsciously used teleportation to run as far away as possible!

“Pikachu…”

Seeing Sabrina trembling slightly, Pikachu stood at Ash's feet, its little face scrunched up.

Compared to last time, why does this person give me such a strange feeling?

It seems like... I get easily irritated now?

The mouse tilted its head and its ear tips twitched.

Just as the mouse was pondering what was strange, Ash's voice came from the side.

"Pikachu, you'd better watch out this time."

Ash paused, his gaze falling on Sabrina, who was trembling slightly, and the fire in his eyes burned even brighter.

"The other side... is getting excited too!"

He could not only hear Naz's heavy breathing, but he could also hear her pounding heartbeat!

He was all too familiar with this kind of behavior!

When he was a kid, his heart would beat like this every week when he challenged his mom!

That feeling of blood surging and adrenaline coursing through your body is a thrill and exhilaration that only arises when facing a truly worthy opponent!

.......

The powerful aura that erupted between the two.

There was no wind in the stadium, yet the flags hanging at the four corners of the stands moved on their own!

The referee stood at the edge of the field, his legs trembling.

He felt that if he took one step forward, he would be completely crushed by the opposing auras of the two!

His Adam's apple bobbed up and down violently twice.

The referee swallowed hard, his eyes scanning back and forth between the two.

He could understand why Naz had that aura.

After all, she is hailed as the woman with the strongest superpowers in history.

It's said that she doesn't even need Pokémon; she can crush most trainers on her own, so it's not an exaggeration to say that she has an intimidating presence.

But what's with that boy on the right wearing a baseball cap and Pikachu?!

Surprisingly, their momentum was no weaker than the opponent's! In fact, they even seemed to have a slight edge!

When did such a terrifying entity emerge in the Kanto region?

He had just returned from a year-end vacation!

He said that on his first day back at work, all his colleagues were vying to give him the great job of being a referee for the finals.

Terms like "experienced," "veteran," and "you're the one who should handle big situations like this"...

That's all bullshit!

These guys already knew that these two monsters would be the final two teams, so they ran away beforehand!

His lips trembled twice.

The referee mustered the last bit of confidence from his professional demeanor before raising his hand and shouting weakly.

"Both sides are ready. Please send out your Pokémon! Battle—begin!"

Even before the word "start" had been uttered, the referee had already instinctively stepped back, quickly retreating to the spectator area.

.......

On the field.

Naza took a slow breath and looked at the boy opposite her with a complicated expression.

After all, if you kept hearing your father say, "You used to harass people every day," you would also have mixed feelings.

Especially when the person you were harassed is right in front of you, and he seems to have completely forgotten about it.

This made Naz feel uncomfortable, as if she was the only one holding a grudge while the other person was living a carefree life.

"It's up to you!"

Unaware of the other person's expression, Ash, who had been impatient for a while, threw out the Poké Ball!

Seeing this, Naz's eyes also lit up with a blue light as she came to her senses.

A Poké Ball floated out from beside him.

Two beams of red light poured out from the gap that the sphere had opened.

A burst of light exploded and landed on both sides of the field.

To ease the tension, Sabrina did not send out any Alakazam.

A purple fluttering moth slowly unfolds its wings in the light.
