Elf: Is the bear apprentice the weakest? I'll shatter the sky with my fists.

As soon as he finished speaking, the leading man in black stomped on a newly grown sprout on the ground and grinned, "I wonder how much longer this broken forest of yours can hold out!"

The center of the shrine.

Celebi's withered body trembled slightly...

Its hands were folded in front of its chest, and a light green halo surrounded its body.

Countless tiny points of light drifted out from the unburned trees, weaving into a translucent barrier around it.

But as the fire spread, the shield's glow dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This tiny bit of light is just a drop in the bucket compared to the blazing flame...

"Ahem... you still have the energy to send someone to arrest me..."

Celebi coughed violently a few times, and the tentacles on his forehead drooped weakly.

The ancient runes on the shrine were blurred by the thick smoke.

There was a loud thud of falling trees in the distance, and each sound made the green light of the barrier dimmer.

"Guys, add fuel to the fire of our forest god."

The black-clad leader grinned, revealing a row of sharp white teeth.

He slowly raised his right hand and made a downward gesture.

boom!

Dozens of pitch-black Poké Balls exploded with crimson light at the same time.

The Houndooms bared their fangs, and the bone rings around their necks glowed an ominous red; the Duck-billed Infernape's thick arms bulged, and lava roared in its body; the nine-tailed Ninetales raised its head gracefully, and every hair was flowing with burning flames!

"Roar--!!"

Amid the roar of the Fire Pokémon, pillars of blazing white flames, waves of crimson flames, and dark blue will-o'-the-wisp erupted simultaneously.

The flames intertwined into a huge web of death, instantly engulfing the surrounding dead wood. The bark of the thousand-year-old trees burst open under the high temperature, making a creepy "crackling" sound.

The thick smoke rolled up into the sky like a giant python, dyeing half of the sky a dirty gray-black color.

Sparks poured down like a rainstorm, and new flames immediately popped up wherever they went!

The entire forest was transforming into a purgatory at an alarming rate. The heat wave distorted the air, and even the rocks in the distance began to glow red...

The barrier that Celebi had finally condensed was shaking violently, and the green light flickered.

It curled up in pain, and with every breath, more ash flowed into its lungs, contaminating its body.

The ancient runes on the shrine dimmed one by one, as if mourning the dying forest...

Click!

The crisp sound of shattering was particularly harsh in the sea of ​​fire.

The green barrier around Celebi shattered like glass.

Tiny specks of light scattered and fell, only to be swallowed up by the heat wave before they even touched the ground.

The tiny mythical Pokémon stumbled back two steps, its back hitting the cold stone pillar of the shrine...

"Hahaha!"

The men in black laughed shrilly as they walked, step by step, trampling over the charred fallen leaves on the ground.

They gathered around slowly, the black Poké Balls spinning on their fingertips, casting scarlet spots of light.

The leader licked his cracked lips with his tongue, and his skinny fingers pressed on the special Poké Ball at his waist.

Right now!

"Meteors!"

A bone-chilling shout suddenly broke through the heat wave.

The sound was not loud, but it pierced everyone's eardrum like an icicle.

Before the men in black could even look up, they saw a purple crack suddenly appear in the sky that was blackened by thick smoke!

"boom--!!!"

Amidst the blast, the purple light exploded deep within the clouds.

In an instant, countless meteorites burning with dark purple flames broke through the air, dragging long tails of flames and tearing the smoke screen into pieces!

The air whistled harshly from the friction, and the lava-like lines on the surface of the meteorite were clearly visible in the twilight!!!

"What...?!"

The black-clad leader's hideous smile froze on his face. When he raised his head in panic, he saw the first meteorite smash his Houndoom into the scorched earth.

The scorching air wave exploded violently with rubble, and the surrounding accomplices were blown away like rag dolls!

boom! boom! boom!

The dull thuds of Poké Balls hitting the scorched earth exploded one after another, and a dark figure suddenly rushed out from the smoke and dust.

Martial Arts Master Bear's fists were wrapped with evil energy, purple-black light flowed between his knuckles, and every step he took left cracked footprints on the scorched earth!

Its eyes penetrated the thick smoke and instantly locked onto the black-clad leader who staggered backward!

"It's...it's you!"

The black-clad leader looked ashen, and his pupils under his hood contracted violently.

He recognized the martial arts bear master.

He even recognized the figure behind it that jumped off Latias's back!

Black smoke was still coming out of Li Chen's clothes, but his eyes were as cold as ice.

"Don't let him go."

Li Chen's voice was very soft, but it caused the temperature around him to drop suddenly.

Upon hearing this, Martial Arts Master Bear grinned, his sharp teeth flashed with a cold light, and evil energy condensed into a vortex-shaped black hole at the tip of his fist.

"To live."

When the last three words fell, Martial Arts Master Xiong jumped out like black lightning.

The Poké Ball that the black-clad leader hastily threw out was still in mid-air when it was blasted far away by a Dark Strike, and the Pokémon inside could not get out at all!

A strong wind burst out with this punch, tearing through the air and reaching the black-clothed leader, hitting him accurately!

boom! ! !

He staggered back and heard the crisp sound of his ribs breaking.

But what was even more terrifying was that Wudao Master Xiong deliberately held back his punches, clearly wanting him to consciously endure every bit of pain!

"Only gym level?"

Li Chen frowned. He originally thought that anyone who dared to attack Celebi must be at least at the King level, but he didn't expect that the strongest person here was only at the Gym level!

"Killing you is enough!"

The black-clad leader suddenly roared, causing the body held by Master Bear to jerk violently. A black tattoo was revealed from his torn sleeves, and the pattern began to wriggle eerily in the firelight.

At the same time, scarlet eyes lit up behind three charred tree stumps.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Three black shadows rushed out in a perfect tactical formation. They were actually three Houndoom with shiny fur.

The bone collars around their necks glowed with blood, and they formed a triangular formation, surrounding Li Chen in the center.

The scorching breath emanated from its fangs, and the dead leaves on the ground instantly carbonized.

"Roar--!"

Amidst the roar, three balls of blazing white fire gushed out simultaneously.

The fireball deformed and stretched strangely in the air, turning into three blazing "big" characters!

The high temperature caused the air to twist violently into a triangular shape, blocking all of Li Chen's escape routes!

The black-clothed leader laughed wildly, and he clearly saw the firelight illuminating Li Chen's suddenly shrinking pupils!

"That's it?"

Chapter 432: The Power of the Dragon

"That's it?"

Disappointment flashed in Li Chen's eyes, and the three large characters of flames that were attacking him were reflected in his pupils.

He raised his right arm slightly, and azure wave power burst out from his palm.

The waveguide force flowed like liquid and condensed into a three-meter-long spear in an instant.

The tip of the gun vibrated, tearing the air.

laugh!

The spear drew an arc of light, and the three burning "big" characters were pierced one by one like balloons.

The exploding sparks flew everywhere and turned into fireflies when they landed at Li Chen's feet.

He flicked his hand to disperse the light gun, and the afterglow of the waveguide lingered on his fingertips and turned into tiny starlight.

The black-clad leader's smile froze on his face, his twisted expression solidified, his cracked lips trembled, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down:

“What the hell is this?!”

The hood fell off, revealing a face that looked like a monster distorted by fear.

The black-clad leader's wide-open eyes reflected Li Chen's calm figure, as well as the blue halo in his palm that had not yet dissipated...

"Even the skills of gym-level Pokémon can't work on this kid?!"

"Humans... How could humans possibly possess such power?!"

The black-clad leader couldn't believe it.

The three Houndooms crouched down and whimpered, the blood light on their collars having long gone out.

"It's time for this farce to end."

Li Chen rubbed his brows, raised his right hand slightly, and several red lights exploded at the same time behind him.

The Moon Bear's heavy footsteps shook the ground slightly, and the Vulcan Moth's three pairs of golden wings spread out, covering half the sky...

Li Chen's companions each performed their duties and captured the group of men in black one by one.

The members of the Dark Team were dragged back like puppets with their strings cut, their black robes stained with mud and blood.

Someone crawled over and tried to grab Li Chen's trouser legs, but before he could touch them, Yueyue Xiong stepped on his back, causing his bones to creak under the weight.

"Please...we just..."

The pleading was interrupted by Li Chen raising his hand.

He half-knelt down, a faint blue wave of light ignited from his fingertips, illuminating the other person's tearful face: "I ask, you answer."

Li Chen's voice was so soft, as if he didn't want to disturb the embers in the forest. His eyes swept across the freshly turned scorched earth not far away. "If you can't answer, I don't mind turning you into nutrients for the tung tree forest."

But at this time, Li Chen noticed the fire line that was still spreading.

He frowned and asked his companions to knock out the men in black, thinking about how to put out the fire.

"Emissary Chen!"

Yulongdu's rapid shouts pierced through the billowing smoke.

He leaned weakly on Dragonite's broad shoulders, his neat robe now stained with cigarette ash.

Li Chen looked up at the sound and saw the Dragonite flapping its wings and landing with difficulty.

Two Haxorus were tightly wrapped around Dragonite. Their slender bodies were covered with burn marks, and the azure gems around their necks were flashing at an abnormal frequency.

"Woo——"

The Haxorus raised their heads and let out a long roar, and the orbs burst into dazzling light.

Dark clouds were beginning to gather in the sky, but at an alarmingly slow pace.
