This elf world is a bit strange

......

When the majestic fire dragon disappeared due to the exhaustion of energy, the nut dumbbell that was completely swallowed by it was already charred and shaky. If it were not for its strong body and the powerful force close to that of the king of heaven to support it, it would have been killed long ago.

Even so, it had lost 70% of its strength at this moment. Its big golden eyes were barely open, but it had lost most of its body.

But this is not the end. The Tyrannosaurus that was swallowing and spitting out fire snakes was already eager to try. It flapped its wings, and a strong wind was rolled up. It came roaring, with a mouth full of sharp teeth wrapped in blazing flames.

Victory or defeat, life or death, is just a moment.

"Nutty Dumbbell, hold on! Acid bomb! Get down!"

In the face of danger, the old but strong Mr. Fu did not retreat. He rushed out from his hiding place alone, holding the Poké Ball in his palm, but he had no intention of taking back the Nut Dumbbell. Instead, he was full of trust in his partner.

Just like Firio, who said nothing and just looked at him coldly from a distance.

"Nato!"

Feeling Master Fu's expectation, Nut Dumbbell took a deep breath and steadied his body in the air. The green vines danced wildly, throwing out streams of purple-black venom, which hit the top of the head of the charging Draco Dragon.

The bloody mouth entangled in flames was right in front of it, but it did not panic. It used its heavy body as a counterweight, sank downward with force, swung its vines, and hit the face of the Tyrannosaurus. At the cost of adding a few more scars, it narrowly escaped the impact of the flame fangs.

"Swish"

A red light flashed, and before Dragonite could regroup, Mr. Fu had already raised his Poké Ball and took back the Pokémon that was about to be defeated.

"Tsk... Really tough." With a heavy face, Mr. Fu dodged and hid in a small banyan tree not far away. After thinking for a while, he put Nut Dumbbell's Poké Ball back into the belt and sent out his fifth Pokémon, "I leave it to you, Blizzard King!"

......

......

"Tsk...what a difficult old man!"

While Master Fu felt his heart sink, Firio's expression was not good either. Hiding behind a tree with only half of his face exposed, he looked closely at the Blizzard King roaring in the open space... and the poisoned Falcon.

"Eugene!——"

Amidst the majestic roar, the flying snow instantly covered the garden greenhouse where it was spring all year round, and also made the face of the Dragonite hanging in the air even uglier.

An imperceptible purple color slowly spread across its face, and an unspeakable feeling of fatigue gradually rose.

With just one glance, Firion, who knew every detail of the Tyrannosaurus Rex, made a judgment that his competitive partner was in a very serious state of poisoning, which was far more frightening than ordinary toxins.

The culprit was the vines and metal plates that hit his face when they crossed each other.

Without a doubt, it was [Poison Attack], and it was a unique skill that complemented the corrosion brought by [Acid Bomb].

"Tyrannosaurus."

"Boman!"

In the call to each other, the thoughts of each other have been conveyed.

Even though it was extremely unwilling, Dragonite still flapped its wings and flew high, retreating in the opposite direction of the greedy Blizzard King, and retreated back into the Poké Ball in the red light.

"Well done, it's our turn now!" Firion whispered to himself while squeezing the still trembling Poké Ball hard, and with a strong push of his feet, he strode out from his hiding place.

At the same time, his fourth Poké Ball also flashed out.

"I'll leave it to you, Emperor Nabo! Provide water cannon cover!"

"Blizzard King, Freeze Beam!"

The white beam of light met the surging water column in a narrow encounter.

"boom--"

In the impact of ice and water, splashes of water and ice crystals flew everywhere, and the warm indoor forest was suddenly shrouded in a bone-chilling cold.

......

......

After the inconclusive long-range battle, the dense grove was covered in silver. The splashing water condensed into melted ice due to the low temperature and fell on the branches and leaves of the trees, emitting a damp and cold breath.

"Come back, Emperor Nabo! Big Mouth, it's up to you! Sword Dance and Iron Head!"

With the cover of ice crystals, Firion rushed forward quickly, holding a Poké Ball in each hand. While taking back the Emperor Nabo, the one containing the Big Mouth was already opened.

Colorful lights swirled around, the key stone and the mega stone echoed each other, and the steel jaws took shape in mid-air.

"Qido!!!"

With an excited roar, Mega Big Mouth flew forward quickly and rushed to the side of Master Fu in the blink of an eye. He swung his jaws lightly, and his sharp momentum was like a blade unsheathed, making people's brows tighten.

The big-mouthed boy, who grew up in a natural space of cruel competition, has no idea of ​​respecting the elderly and loving the young. Every move he makes is a killing move, which is even more ruthless and decisive than Firio.

The air seemed to be torn apart by the high-speed dancing steel. With a slight sound of breaking through the air, the big jaws danced, pointing directly at the old man's chest and abdomen.

The strong sense of crisis made Fu Ye's hair stand on end, as if he was back in the wild battlefield decades ago where no one was afraid of what might be done.

"drink!"

His body's instinct was instantly awakened, and at the critical moment, he let out a low roar and made a difficult bending movement that was completely beyond his age. At the critical moment, he watched the big jaw pass over his chest.

A strong gust of wind passed by dangerously, making him break out in a cold sweat.

Without thinking too much, he rolled over before Mega Mouth launched a new round of attack, and used the cover of the bushes to avoid the second blow.

"Click"

Amid the teeth-grinding sound of tree trunks breaking, the old man remained calm. With one hand, he pulled back the Blizzard King who was still far away and had no time to come to his rescue. With the other hand, he pulled out a small paper bag and waved it casually. The white powder filled the sky and forced the Big Mouth Baby back several steps. He had to use the Fairy Wind to blow it away.

When it rushed forward again, a brand new luxurious ball came into view.

"Boom"

Along with the white light, the old man’s long-lost ambition and passion bloomed, as well as his ardent call:

"Please, my old friend!"

In the close combat where victory or defeat depended on a split second, the old man did not hesitate to send out the only king Pokémon he had prepared today, which was also his ace partner, his mount Goat.

......

......

"Mount goat, wooden horn!"

"Big Mouth Boy, Iron Head!"

In the close combat and rapidly changing situation, there was no new change for either side. They could only give their partners 100% trust and let them fight head-on.

"Qido!"

"Goroo!"

The two Pokémon, who both pride themselves on their strength, are vying with each other.

The white light flashed, and the ferocious steel jaws moved forward in unison, attacking in a coordinated manner.

The green is vast and lush, and the sharp curves are unstoppable and confront each other head-on.

"Bang—boom"

The physical strength and attribute energy intertwined, and the explosive air wave knocked Fu Ye and Felio to the ground at the same time, and a tiny mushroom cloud slowly rose.

“Qido!——”

Even with the blessing of the Hercules trait, Mega Mouth was unable to gain an advantage against the king-level power Pokémon. It was defeated in the pure strength contest, retreated more than ten steps, and crashed into a tree trunk in the distance.

However, although he was the losing party, Mega Mouth was not discouraged at all. Instead, he smiled as if his plan had succeeded, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Go...Golu!"

The mount goat that was ready to go suddenly let out a roar full of pain. At the end of Master Fu's sight, a shallow scar appeared on the forehead of the mount goat.

And Firio, who was supposed to be standing no more than ten meters away from him, disappeared quietly the moment he fell and lost his sight.

"Not good! Mount Goat, Crazy Volt!"

He let out a low roar, and his keen intuition told him that something was wrong. He pushed his hands hard on the ground, and was about to stand up and fight again. However, halfway through the action, his heart sank, and he suddenly heard the surprised shouts of the apprentices in the distance, and the clear shout of Firio who had arrived late:

"Take over! Tooth for tooth and then Shadow Ball!"

"chuck"

"Another baton pass! When?!"

He noticed everything that happened in the distance out of the corner of his eye, and even his heartbeat paused for a moment. Realizing that something was wrong, Mr. Fu lost his previous calmness and cried out in surprise.

"Boom"

Another flash of white light appeared in the grass diagonally ahead.

Next, there was a phantom that was difficult to see with the naked eye.

“Shua——Bang”

The goat mount that was charging for support had not yet braked and turned around when it was hit in front of him.

The fragile waist received a solid blow, and the resolute eyes were blurred for a moment under the heavy blow. Even the electric current wrapped around the body surface dissipated instantly due to the exhaustion.

With the help of Sword Dance, the sudden and fierce attack made this powerful King-level Pokémon unable to resist.

However, this is not the end.

The small black shadow remained calm despite the torture of the electric current. The deep dark energy instantly condensed on the surface of its body. It was no longer a concentrated and purified energy ball, but pure darkness.

"boom--"

A violent explosion sounded only a few centimeters away from the body, and the dark purple-black light instantly engulfed the huge body of the mount goat.

Without even a scream being uttered, the partner disappeared into the darkness.

"sit……!"

Kneeling on one knee, Mr. Fu picked up the Poké Ball and was about to say something, but he suddenly felt a chill on his neck.

Firion's fingers were already pressing against the back of his neck.

"Thank you, Master Fu."

The calm voice contained a slight gasp, and beneath the slender fingers, the alloy blade from before was still hidden, ready to be fired.

"Goroo!"

The goat mount, which was in a miserable state but still had the strength to fight, had bloodshot eyes and was ready to charge again.

"Maggie? Maggie!——"

The dream demon, who was looking down from a high position, showed no sign of weakness and looked disdainfully at his opponent who was still refusing to accept defeat. Amidst the swirling electric light, a faint purple color rose from the ground.

"Alright, mount goat. We lost, Firion, can you take your poison?"

In the tense confrontation, the old man's voice instantly dispelled the hostility of the goat, causing this big guy, who had not been able to fully display his power from beginning to end, to lie obediently on the ground.

The old man, admitting defeat, pushed himself up against the ground, turned his head and saw Firio's gentle smile and his right hand as he retracted it.

-----------------

A moment later, in the newly tidied garden, the lingering aroma of tea dispelled the smoke of the battle.

On the lawn in the distance, the Pokémon that had just been fighting fiercely were laughing and playing together. Only a few bandages wrapped with medicine and antidote told the story of the previous battle.

"You lose. This guy refuses to admit his age. The young are really to be feared! Your superpowers are really elusive. I can't find the rhythm at all. It's really amazing."

Surrounded by his apprentices, Master Fu, whose face was still rosy after a great battle, sat leisurely on a recliner, smiling widely, speaking with full energy and not stinging with praise.

Firion sniffed the tea and waved his hands gently, half modestly and half flatteringly, "You are the one who let me win. Otherwise, if you had sent out the shuttlecock cotton and the Venus flytrap, I would definitely not be your opponent. Even if I were your age and still had such agile skills, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."

"If I had sent these two out, you would have accused me of bullying, right?" Staring at Firion with a half-smile, Master Fu said meaningfully, "I've heard from Muriel that you are sweet-talking, and now it seems that the old guy didn't lie to me in this regard. It would be great if my Biyi Gym had a younger generation like you who are so motivated. They would have to learn from you."

"How could I dare to accept this? The Hibiki Gym is well-known for its talented people, and I have always envied Nanako. As for myself, I am just lucky, but I don't deserve such a high evaluation from you." Sitting up straight with fear and trepidation, Firio looked around and nodded slightly to the apprentices in the gym, especially several senior gym trainers, which drew a flattered return greeting.

"Lucky? It's not good to be too modest... My disciples have lived in peace for too long. None of them can play indiscriminate battles like you do. It's boring." Shrugging his shoulders, the peaceful old man didn't bother to argue. He just muttered to himself and glanced at a few old apprentices who were laughing. He took out the badge from his pocket and said with a mischievous look, "Take it. This is the second to last one. The last match is with that little girl Korni. She has the sentiment of you young people."

"You are very observant. We can't hide our little thoughts from you."

Firion took the badge with a smile and responded quietly.

"Heh... I saw her and Kokobul when I went to Sala a few days ago. She's been holding back a lot of energy lately. I'm really looking forward to the competition between you young people." The old man tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, glanced at Firio meaningfully, waved his hand indifferently, and said, "You all should do what you should do. Firio, come with me to see the new books I bought, and bring some tea to those two old guys. And you little guy over there, stop chewing my flowers, come here, I have something delicious for you to eat."

After saying this, the old man picked up the teacup, took a sip, slowly stood up, and with Filio's attentive support, walked towards his own residence in the garden greenhouse that he had specially built.

The apprentices dispersed one after another, and soon only Nanako, who was holding the seed iron ball thoughtfully, and the cub whose door to the new world was opened by the previous fierce battle were left.

"Taisi..."
