Chương 136: The Fire That Superpowers Cannot Extinguish

Two hours later, Lu Sha and Cattleya walked out of the police station.

After much persuasion, they finally convinced the enthusiastic Jun Sayue to give up her idea of being their tour guide.

"Why not?"

As soon as she stepped out the door, the young lady tilted her head slightly and looked at Lu Sha with a cool gaze, asking the question that Jun Sha had interrupted her earlier.

Just take down Red Sun.

"Click! (Because I can't beat them!)" Lu Sha helplessly spread his paws: "Crack! (He's the biggest villain in Sinnoh, after all. Putting aside whether he's an Elite Four level trainer or not, he definitely has a few Elite Four level Pokémon in his possession.)" The young lady's superpowers are indeed very strong, but they are not yet invincible.

She has a high chance of winning in a one-on-one battle against a Champion-level Pokémon.

But if she faces two at the same time, she can only rely on teleportation to escape with him.

"Click! (Didn't we do a test back in the Great Wetlands?)" Lu Sha patiently explained, "Click! (The Scizor and Diancie attacked together, but you easily suppressed them with one hand. A Champion-level opponent against someone below Champion is a complete dimensional annihilation. So we're not yet capable of directly confronting Red Sun.)" This is the case.

His mention of the Crimson Sun was merely a reminder to the league and the Galaxy team, to express his stance.

This is his and the young lady's Sinnoh, so he can't let Team Galactic mess around here.

Some members of the alliance's upper echelons may know Chi Ri's true identity, but unless he does something too outrageous, they will probably only issue a verbal warning at most, and are unlikely to take any major action.

As for what constitutes "too outrageous"... well, this time it definitely doesn't count.

But Lu Sha doesn't want a next time.

Thinking of this, Lu Sha took out his phone and browsed the news.

After searching for a while, I found the news in Black Gold City that the Crimson Sun Machinery Group had donated 5 million Alliance Coins.

"Is this matter over with just a donation of 500 million? The casualty figures reported in Blackgold City, not counting Pokémon, are over 10, 000."

Cattleya frowned slightly, her tone revealing obvious dissatisfaction.

"Click! (The good news is that Team Galactic didn't succeed this time. And the White Jade Orb is currently in the hands of King Bamboo, so Team Galactic doesn't have the strength to snatch it.)" Lu Sha had previously asked Cynthia and the others to investigate, and there was still no news about the corresponding Diamond Jewel for Dialga. It might be mixed in with exhibits in a museum, or it might not have been discovered yet.

In either case, as long as the white jade pearl remains in a safe place, the situation is not that dangerous.

"Ha, they're all a bunch of parasites that suck blood. They'll be cleaned up sooner or later."

Cattleya looked disgusted.

She doesn't consider herself a good person, but she also extremely hates this kind of large-scale destructive behavior that disregards human life.

"Um?"

After walking side by side towards the lake for a while, Gadriya suddenly stopped and looked up in the direction of the lakeside.

"Crack? (What's wrong? Did Diancie and the others run into trouble?)" Lu Sha frowned, his shark-like eyebrows furrowing.

"Several fiery energies were coiled around Diancie and the others."

After carefully sensing its surroundings, Gadriya said softly, "Although it's much weaker than that Arcanine, it's still at the threshold of Champion level, or even close to it. The opponent should be a Fire-type Champion."

"Crack? (Fire-type Elite Four member? That's interesting.)" Lu Sha grinned mischievously, but showed no sign of nervousness.

There aren't many Fire-type Elite Four members in Sinnoh right now, and one of them happens to be one of the Elite Four.

Following their senses, the two walked to a quiet shore and immediately spotted Pokémon playing in the water.

After leading everyone through a series of activities, Tianxi took the initiative to come to this deserted shallow beach.

After all, the evolved Tyrannosaurus Rex is a full five meters tall, making it unsuitable for densely populated areas.

In addition, although Diancie disguised herself and did not attract attention, the cute appearance of the pseudo-legendary Dratini in Kanto inevitably led to harassment from tourists in crowded places.

"Click! (Men, your boss is here!)" Lu Sha chuckled as he walked to the water's edge, waving his paws at the Pokémon in the water, completely ignoring the bald old man next to him who kept casting glances at him.

Lu Sha! Lu Sha!

Tianxi excitedly waved her fair little hand, beckoning him to come down and play together.

"Moo! (The boss is here!)" The Ironclad Tyrannosaurus Rex is quite bad.

It excitedly stomped its feet twice in the water, and its massive body instantly created a huge wave that crashed straight towards the land sand.

"Click! (Wow, you're going to learn to surf!)" Faced with the splashing waves, Lu Sha calmly struck a pose resembling a white crane spreading its wings.

Dance of Fire activated!

Instant flames surged and rose around him, evaporating the onrushing water completely, leaving not a single scale wet.

Although he doesn't have any weaknesses to water-type moves, he's an earth dragon, unlike Dratini which likes to spend all its time in the water.

Lu Sha noticed out of the corner of his eye that the bald old man next to him almost bulged his eyes out because of his Fire Dance.

"Dean Maiye?"

Cattleya walked slowly to the bald old man's side and spoke in a cold tone.

Although the other person was wearing large sunglasses, under her superpowered perception, it made no difference whether they were physically disguised or not.

In addition, there was the intense fire-type energy fluctuation emanating from the opponent, as well as the six Poké Balls at his waist that emitted fire-type Elite Four level energy.

In the entire Sinnoh region, apart from Mickey Mouse, one of the Elite Four, there is no other like him.

However, she changed to a slightly more intimate form of address and didn't call him "Heavenly King" directly.

This is what Lu Sha taught her.

She is still a student at Zhuqing College, so it would be more appropriate to call her Dean.

Although Mai Ye was only the nominal principal of the academy, he might not even know which way the school gate faced.

"Hahaha! Looks like this old man is quite famous, even getting recognized when I come to Lizhi Lake for vacation."

The bald old man laughed heartily, then calmly took off his sunglasses, revealing a serious, dignified, and authoritative face.

Fire-type trainers are mostly straightforward and hot-tempered, and Wheat Leaf is no exception.

He looked intently at Cattleya: "Cattleya, I've heard of you before, but this should be our first official meeting. I've heard about you from that kid Da Ye; he personally admitted that you're the strongest of the younger generation in Sinnoh. I've really never met many trainers who can convince that kid so sincerely."

"Dean Maiye, are you here to challenge us?"

Cattleya turned her head slightly, seemingly sizing up the old man in front of her, but her emerald green eyes were unfocused, as if they were devoid of any emotion.

She had no interest in getting to know Wheatleaf, nor was she interested in the so-called Pokémon battles.

She simply enjoyed the feeling of fighting alongside Lu Sha, rather than being passionate about the battle itself.

"Of course not."

King Maiye shook his head and grinned: "As for the other old fogies, I'd really like to personally teach you a lesson, let you experience the taste of failure in advance, so that you won't have a problem with your mentality when you encounter setbacks in the future."

"Then why didn't you choose to do that?"

Cattleya's voice remained completely calm.

From the moment they met, she knew she was no match for Maiye.

Her superpowers couldn't extinguish the fire of this veteran superstar.

Miracles can indeed happen in Pokémon battles, but the difference in skill between the Pokémon on both sides is too great.

If even she can't compete with the opponent's trainer, then Lu Sha and the others have even less chance of winning; they wouldn't be able to pull off a miracle even if they fought ten thousand times.

"Because you give me a strange feeling."

King Wheat Leaf turned around and, for the first time, used his sharp self-light to carefully examine Cattleya, his brows furrowing slightly.

"Every powerful trainer I've ever met has an unwavering belief in victory and a burning passion for battle in their eyes. That exhilarating, burning feeling is palpable the moment our eyes meet. But I can't feel it at all in you."

"You don't seem like a human trainer. If I had to describe my impression..."

Elf King carefully considered his words, his eyes flashing with scrutiny and seriousness: "You are more like the Moltres I challenged in the Kanto region back then. You have no desire for victory whatsoever, you are simply born with extremely powerful strength, and you carry your own pride."

"You're more like a humanoid Pokémon, not needing to carry your own beliefs as you keep moving forward on the path of a trainer. It's as if you're confident that you can reach the highest peak just by relying on your talent alone."
