Mind Master of the Elf World

Chapter 428 Reaching the Top! Gengar: Here you go! (4.2k words, please vote!)

Boom!
The screen dimmed again as another Poké Ball appeared.

There are four now.

Including Latios, Darkroc has lost four Pokémon, more than half of his Pokémon!
However, Dakdo took the final outcome in stride and enjoyed the battle with Jinghe.

So he simply summoned his fifth Pokémon.

A humanoid Pokémon, dressed in heavy metal armor, sits upright on the tip of its hair, which resembles a stool, like a majestic general, with a powerful aura surrounding its entire body.

Especially the huge golden longsword on its head is quite intimidating.

"Darklord's next Pokémon is Pokémon: Bomberman!" the host quickly announced.

General of the Sword, a Pokémon with a large sword, is a Dark/Steel type.

It is said that among a group of cleaver commanders, only the one that stands at the very top can evolve into a servant general.

At the same time, it is rumored that the appearance of the Servant General will bring war, but he is not good at difficult tactics and is better at using brute force to suppress his opponents.

Furthermore, the Servant General has a very special exclusive trait – General.

[Admiral: When a Pokémon possesses this ability, the power of its moves increases by 10% when each of its allies is unable to battle!]

Judging from the aura displayed when the Servant General appeared, its characteristic is most likely that of a "general"!
Darkrai has already lost four Pokémon, which means that when Pokémon Generals enters the fray, it will receive a 40% boost to move power!
Upon seeing General Servant, several Poké Balls around Jing He's waist began to shake simultaneously.

They are the Great Blacksmith, the Martial Arts Bear Master, and the Charcoal Servant.

The reason for Greatsmith is simple: besides having an ambiguous antagonistic relationship with Corviknight, Greatsmith also has an antagonistic relationship with Pokémon like ...

Meanwhile, the armor of the Servant General greatly intrigued the Great Blacksmith.
The meaning of Martial Arts Master Xiong is also quite clear.

The other side finally sent out a respectable "general," and as Jing He's top vanguard general, it was eager to meet him!
As for Tanjiro, it hasn't been in a battle for a long time. Since its opponent looks so impressive, they might give it some face.
Jinghe's cheeks twitched slightly at their thoughts.

After much deliberation, he finally chose Tan Xiaoshi.

The Greatsmith's attributes are not advantageous against the Servant General, and if it is used, there is no guarantee that the Servant General will have something left in the end.

If you're only wearing your underwear, it's somewhat indecent.

And the martial arts master Xiong was still locked up by a "careful scarf".

Charcoal Servant has indeed been absent for some time, and he has a certain attribute advantage when facing the Servant General.

So, after recalling the Dragonite, which was excited but also badly injured, Jinghe threw out his Poké Ball.

"Then it's up to you, Tan-chan."

"Gurgle!!"

With a serious expression, Tan Xiaoshi appeared in the arena amidst the red light.

Looking at the imposing General of the Servants, Tan Xiaoshi's eyes blazed with fire. He took a deep breath, and the flames on his body surged.

"Guka"

Please give me some face.
boom!
Before Tan Xiaoshi could finish speaking, the imposing General Pudao suddenly knelt down on the ground with a thud.

Tan Xiaoshi: "?!"

hiss--

When did I become so important?
Such a grand gesture right from the start?

This kneeling left Tan Xiaoshi completely bewildered.

"Watch out!" Jing He's voice came from behind.

See you soon.

A cunning and ruthless glint flashed in the eyes of the kneeling servant general. Taking advantage of the moment when Tan Xiaoshi was distracted, he suddenly pounced forward.

The speed was so fast that it was overwhelming.

The enormous sword above his head pierced straight towards Tan Xiaoshi.

Servant's Knife!

The Servant General's signature move involves kneeling down to catch the opponent off guard before launching a surprise attack, which is almost never unsuccessful!
boom! !

General Pudao's massive golden sword struck Tan Xiaoshi's chest with a dull thud, scattering sparks everywhere.

But when General Pudao tried to go any further, he found that the blade could not go any deeper.

Because Tanjiro clasped his hands together and firmly caught the blade!
Catching a blade barehanded!

In other words, Jing He's reminder was timely, and Tan Xiaoshi himself also had the power of waveguide, so his reaction was relatively fast.

Otherwise, if this cut lands squarely, Tan Xiaoshi might really suffer.

However, upon closer inspection, one can still see a deep wound on Tanjiro's chest, left by the blade of the Servant General.

But deep within the wound, strands of red thread gradually appeared, as if something was brewing.

A faint golden hue is also interwoven within it.

"Hoo-hoo!"

General Pudao shouted in a deep voice, suddenly exerting all his strength as he pushed forward against Tan Xiaoshi.

Tan Xiaoshi's face was also extremely tense, and his feet plowed two charred scratches into the ground.

"Gurgle!!"

Tan Xiaoshi also spoke in a deep voice, clenching his teeth, and while he used all his strength to hold the blade, his body burst into scorching flames.

For a moment, the two sides were locked in a power struggle.

However, in terms of strength alone, Tan Xiaoshi is still far inferior to Pu Dao General.

But just when General Servant thought it could succeed smoothly, it suddenly sensed something was wrong.

hot!
A burning sensation came from the blade.

And this feeling is becoming more and more obvious.

"Humph?" General Pudao raised his gaze and met Charcoal Servant's fiery eyes.

"Gurgle!"

Tan Xiaoshi grinned.

That's a nice knife.

Bear!!

Suddenly, a blazing flame erupted from Tan Xiaoshi's retreating body, and its hands, which were gripping the blade, were already burning red.

Even a large portion of the blade was stained bright red.

"Big Character Explosive Flame!" Jing He's voice rang out.

"Hoo-hoo!"

The Servant Blade General wanted to retreat, but it had been difficult to advance before, and now it was even more difficult to draw its blade.

Terrifying flames erupted from Tan Xiaoshi's body, instantly engulfing himself and the Servant General.

"A kneeling sword strike encountering a bare-handed catching of a blade? Am I watching a kung fu movie?"

"A phrase suddenly came to mind—'One hundred percent catching a blade barehanded'"

"It might not have been so easy to deal with originally, but General Pudao delivered himself to our doorstep."

boom! !

The fire is extinguished!

"General Pudao, incapacitated!" The referee immediately announced as he watched the golden sword almost melt away and the General Pudao collapse unconscious on the ground.

On the big screen, Darko had only one Poké Ball left.

And everyone knows what this last Pokémon is.

"Without even realizing it, it's already 5-0!"

"There's still a chance. Darkrai in Darkrai is very strong!"

"Could Darkrai be planning a comeback from 5-6 down? Is he trying to pull off a 'Tōtendai' (a powerful attack)?"

Dakdo took a deep breath and silently put the servant knife back.

"My turn?" Darkrai slowly emerged from the shadows behind Darkrai.

"Ah, there will always be times like this," Darkrai sighed inwardly.

But let's fight!

At worst, I'll just use one Dark Hole in each hand and sleep with them all!
Darkrai sensed what Darkrai was thinking and hesitated briefly before saying, "I feel like you probably can't hypnotize Teacher Jinghe's Pokémon."

“How could that be?” Darkrai’s eyes widened.

But when it saw Gengar emerge from Jinghe's shadow and wave at it with obvious familiarity, it swallowed its words.

On the other end of the line is the Pokémon psychologist, one of the most "top" in the Pokémon world, and whose specialty is "hypnotherapy".
"Damn it! Should we... just fire this round?" Darkrai asked in a low voice.

But Darkrai had a change of heart and said in a deep voice, "No, at least we have to show the spirit of never giving up until we draw the last card!" "Go, Darkrai!"

Darkrai: "."

It wasn't you who hit him!
Despite thinking this, it still used the shadows to quickly reach the field.

Black mist swirled around Darkrai, which slowly emerged, its depths obscured by drifting black and white clouds.

"It's Darkrai, Darkrai, Darkrai's signature Pokémon!" the announcer shouted.

The audience held their breath.

With such momentum, are they really going to come back from 5-6 down?!
“Gengar,” Jing He said slowly.

"Genga~"

With Jing He's permission, Gengar hummed a little tune and skipped onto the field.

I've been waiting for so long, today has finally come!
Darkrai's expression was somewhat stiff, and he felt a little angry inside.

Do you really think you can take me for granted?
The final battle has officially begun!

“Darkrai, trickery!” Darkrai shouted, lifting his cloak.

Since dark holes may not work, it might be a good idea to first amplify yourself and then try to open a gap in another way.

hum-

Darkrai's body was surrounded by swirling clouds, and a strange black light swirled around him, causing his aura to surge.

"This is going to be a head-on confrontation!"

"That's true. Darkrai's Dark Void might not be effective against Gengar, but Gengar's Hypnosis might not be effective against Darkrai either."

"A head-on confrontation might be a good choice!"

As Darkrai's aura surged amidst the audience's discussions, Jinghe and Gengar simultaneously revealed smiles.

Their smiles are almost identical.

"Gengar," Jing He laughed, "Shadow Thief!"

Darkrai: ?

Dakdo: ? ?
audience:??

"Is this a Gengar move? I don't know it."

"What kind of move is this?"

"Never heard of it, what's it for?"

The audience and the host were unaware of this move, but some people did, such as Darkrai.

Then, Gengar suddenly appeared not far from Darkrai in a flash, and then reached out with a grin.

Bring it to you!

A shadow flew out from Darkrai, then transformed into two black bats that flapped their wings and flew into Gengar's hand.

Darkrai's soaring momentum plummeted, while Gengar gained the boost.

For a moment, Darkrai felt an emptiness inside.

"Holy crap! Is this a move that steals buffs?"

"This move is illogical!"

"Unreasonable? It's not just unreasonable, this move is completely illegal!"

I finally managed to fight Gengar with a strong offensive strategy, but my buffs were stolen right from the start?

How does this work?
Fortunately, Dacto reacted relatively quickly.

Since brute force has been countered, and Gengar even has an advantage over Darkrai in brute force, there is only one option left.

bet!
I'm betting that Dark Hole won't be able to stop Gengar!
Darkrai gritted his teeth and said in a chilling voice, "Darkrai, Dark Hole!"

Darkrai's light blue eyes flickered, black mist surged around his body, and a small black hole condensed on his claws.

If you're so capable, why don't you learn how to create a dark hole too!
If Gengar knew what Darkrai and Darkrai were thinking, it would definitely say...
Sorry, there's not much to learn about this.

"Gang ga!"

Then let me show you what "Old Jing's Hypnosis" is all about!
Gengar grinned maliciously and began spinning its hands in circles.

"Holy crap, Gengar is going to use hypnosis to counter Dark Void?!"

"Don't tell me that a dark hole is no better than hypnosis!"

"What a confident Gengar! What an adorable little devil!"

Dark Hole vs. Old Jing's Hypnosis!

As soon as he used it, Darkrai sensed something was wrong.

Why does my head feel so foggy?
Gengar tilted its head and blinked.

"Genga?"

You're not as good as that one on Crescent Island.

Darkrai: "."

"Genga." (The difference is quite significant.)

What is shrimp and pork heart?

This is called shrimp and pork heart!
Darkrai suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and couldn't catch his breath. His eyes rolled back and he collapsed to the ground.

The out-of-control black hole was caught in the hand of a curious Gengar.
This thing is called a dark hole?

For a moment, the entire room fell completely silent, as if everyone had been hypnotized.

The audience stared blankly at Gengar, who was playing with the black hole, feeling a bit bewildered.

Did the God of Nightmares lose to nightmares?
Wait, let me sort this out.
"Darkrai is unable to battle! Darkrai has lost all its Pokémon!"

The silence was broken once again by the referee's voice, who announced, "Therefore, the winner is Jing He!!"

"The champion of this year's Lily of the Valley Tournament has been crowned!!!"

"Teacher Jinghe!!"

"we are the champion!!"

"We're champions again!!"

"We've always been the champions!!"

"Genga?"

Gengar scratched his head, slowly realizing what was happening.

Is this a win?

Then a startled feeling.

We won!!
Another bonus! I can buy lots of delicious food!!
"Genga!!"

Gengar opened its mouth, threw the remaining black hole into its mouth, and then excitedly rushed towards Jinghe.

We won! Jinghe, we won again!!
Darkor beaded in cold sweat as he watched Gengar casually devour the Black Hole.

But then he quickly breathed a sigh of relief.

Okay
He walked towards Jing He and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Teacher Jing He."

He accepted his defeat wholeheartedly.

"but."

Jinghe patted Dakdo on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, the future is yours."

Dakdo's expression froze instantly.

Me? I've become a member of the "Future Party" too?

"I can agree to the cooperation," Jing He said with a smile.

"Um?!"

"I've come up with a great idea for promoting Pokémon trading cards."

Darkrai was invigorated.

"really?!"

"Let's find an opportunity to discuss this in detail."

"it is good!"
