An abstract trainer who taught Charmander the Incinerate move

Chapter 205 Tang Long D. Luffy (Please Subscribe)

"The Death Photography Exhibition begins!"

Xiu Di's lips curled into a cold smile, and with a graceful wave of his arm, a super ball was activated.

"Come forth, my artist! Add a profound hue to this exhibition of death photography!"

"Chirp!"

Accompanied by an ethereal yet chilling cry, a massive, deep blue jellyfish-like sprite floated in mid-air.

Its translucent, umbrella-shaped body pulsated slowly, and countless tentacles with fluorescent tips swayed silently like the hair of a deep-sea siren, exuding a ghostly atmosphere mixed with dampness and decay.

This is the powerful Pokémon unique to the Unova region—Chubby!

【Quack! 】

Almost the instant the chubby little thing appeared, the little dream that had been nestled on Mo Zhen's head let out a terrified squeal, its beady eyes widening instantly, and a panel made of dreamlike energy flashed wildly in front of Mo Zhen's eyes.

【Race: Chubby】

【Attribute: Water/Ghost】

【Level: 53】

[Skills Mastered: Water Cannon, Shadow Ball, Spectral Light, Trap, Protect, Misfortune Comes Alone, Hot Water, Salt Water...]

[Quack! Level 53! A whole three levels higher than that damned Officer Jenny's long-haired dog! Sir, are we really a match for it?!]

Upon seeing the data from the encyclopedia, Mo Zhen revealed a thoughtful expression.

Level 53, which is a full 3 levels higher than Officer Jenny, the long-haired dog he encountered before!
Don't underestimate these three levels. The later a spirit's strength progresses, the more accumulation is required for each level and the greater the resulting power increase.

The energy fluctuations contained within this chubby creature were like a bottomless, icy pool, far more profound and terrifying than any opponent encountered before!
The Xiu Di before us is not the kind of mediocre trainer like Hei Lian who barely squeezed into the professional ranks by relying on personal connections and resources. Instead, he is a true backbone of the professional trainers who has grown through countless real battles and the accumulation of resources!

What bothered him even more was the chubby guy's dual attributes of [Ghost] and [Water], which was practically a killer move against his current lineup!

Whether it's Lucario's Steel and Fighting types, or Xiao Huolong's Fire and Normal types, they are all perfectly countered by the chubby Water and Ghost types!
The other side was clearly well-prepared, having thoroughly investigated the intelligence of his two top generals, and had dispatched professional assassins capable of absolute attribute suppression.

The person behind this is no ordinary individual!

Upon seeing this terrifying killer descending upon them, the vine snake, hiding in the crevices of the sleepers, became so excited that its entire body of emerald green scales trembled rapidly, and the leaves covering its eyes were almost shaken off by it!
It stared intently at the blue jellyfish that exuded a terrifying aura, and a tremendous joy burst forth like champagne.

"Quack! Fantastic! That power! That level! It's a sure thing! Absolutely a sure thing! You beast in the red suit, today is the day you die! Hahahaha, heaven is on my side! My great mission is accomplished today! Camera guy, give him a good blast!"

However, faced with this desperate situation of being suppressed by level, completely countered by attributes, and filled with murderous intent, Mo Zhen's lips suddenly curled upwards, forming a sinister smile that was a mixture of madness and absolute confidence!

Attribute advantage? Level advantage? What a joke! How could the elves under Mo Zhen's command be mere mortals that can be measured by common sense?

Every elf honed by his artistic power possesses the strength to defy fate and shatter all rules!

Mo Zhen raised his arm and waved it, his red suit fluttering in the dust.

"Xiao Huolong, prepare for battle!!!"

At this moment, the laborers, who had just relaxed slightly because of Zhu Lan's departure, were instantly terrified by the fat man's terrifying aura and the impending battle!
The instinct for survival overwhelmed everything; like a flock of sheep scattered by fright, they turned around crying and screaming, trying to escape this hellish scene.

"Heh... You want to leave? How could such a wonderful performance be without an audience?"

Xiu Di wore a cruel yet elegant smile, as if he were setting up a grand exhibition of death art.

He held the professional SLR camera steadily, his fingers lightly resting on the shutter button.

"Crack——!"

The moment the shutter clicked, the chubby, enormous, dark blue eyes suddenly lit up with an eerie light, and a circle of silent [strange light] spread out like ripples on water, instantly enveloping all the laborers who were trying to escape!
"Ugh!"

"I...I can't move?!"

"My body! What's wrong with me?!"

"Hmph... Hmph! Help! Let me go!"

Xiao Hao's cries were filled with extreme terror and despair. He found himself as if he were stuffed into a framed photograph, unable to move even a finger. His face was covered in snot and tears, and his expression was frozen in a distorted fear.

The expressions on the laborers' faces, a mixture of dust, sweat, tears, and boundless fear, were like those of silent actors whose pause button had been pressed—stiff and absurd.

The entire construction site fell into an eerie silence, with only heavy breathing and the muffled thumping of hearts.

Xiudi admired the living backdrop of countless terrified faces before him with satisfaction, as if he were examining his most prized photograph, his tone tinged with sadistic pleasure.

"Very good, keep that 'vivid' expression... How can such a spectacular 'execution show' be without an audience? Ladies and gentlemen, stay here and watch until the very end!"

This is no ordinary killer's style! Witnesses that others would avoid at all costs have become, in his eyes, spectators who enhance the atmosphere!

Such arrogant behavior is by no means a first offense, yet they have remained unscathed to this day, which speaks volumes about their confidence in their own strength and the terrifying power behind them!

However, it was precisely this pretentious act of showing off that revealed a fleeting flaw!

Just as the chubby creature was doing its utmost to maintain the vast expanse of [strange light], and the fluorescence on its eerie blue tentacles began to dim slightly—

"It's now!"

Mo Zhen's eyes flashed with a sharp light!

"Aa ...

With a dragon's roar that resounded through the heavens and earth, Xiao Huolong moved!

Driven by the qualitative change brought about by the liquefaction of the incineration battle aura, its [Explosive Step] has already reached the [Mastery] level!
Its plump orange body suddenly sank, and the ground beneath its feet cracked open with a spiderweb pattern. The next instant, a violent crimson-gold battle aura exploded from the soles of its feet!

Its body transformed into an orange streak of light that tore through the air, moving so fast that it left a clear afterimage in place. With a terrifying speed that exceeded the limits of visual perception, it lunged at the chubby creature suspended in mid-air!
The enormous can of yellow peaches suddenly unleashed a ghostly, teleporting-like leap that was completely disproportionate to its size!

In the pile of sleepers, the leaves covering the eyes of the gromwell snake fell down with a "thud," revealing its snake eyes filled with horror and jealousy.

This...this is impossible! How could this fat dragon possess such terrifying speed?! This...this agility...it should belong to me! How could it have fallen to this damned canned peach? How unjust is the way of Heaven! I am the future God-King! I refuse to accept this!!!
Xiao Huolong's terrifying speed, far exceeding that of other spirits of the same level, caused a crack to appear on Xiu Di's composed face for the first time!
His pupils contracted sharply, a strong sense of crisis gripping his heart! He had been too complacent! He had severely underestimated the monster's explosive power!

"Don't let your guard down, don't give it a chance! Chubby, [hold on]!!!"

Xiu Di's voice carried a hint of urgency that he himself was unaware of.

"Hahaha! Hold on?!"

Mo Zhen's wild laughter was like a thunderclap, filled with contempt for the so-called absolute defense.

【Defend】While it is a god-tier skill that can block any attack in game battles, in reality, miracles can happen with enough force!

"This collapse will destroy twenty years of fighting spirit! Can you—hold it back?!"

"Aa ...

Xiao Huolong unleashed a deafening roar, his charge reaching its peak!

Its thick, Tyrannosaurus Rex-like right arm, carrying the will to destroy everything, was raised fiercely and aimed at the chubby, dark blue, umbrella-shaped body that was so close at hand!

The crimson-gold liquefied battle qi surged, compressed, and vibrated wildly on its arm, accumulating terrifying power enough to shatter mountains and split seas!
This is precisely his renowned secret technique, known throughout the warehouse—[Extreme Eight Collapses]!
At this moment, time seemed to stretch out.

The frozen images of the laborers reflected Xiao Huolong's arm, which was as strong as a pillar supporting the sky, in their wide, terrified eyes.

The astonishment on Xiu Di's face froze.

The Snivy's jealousy froze in horror.

Xiaomengzi held her breath nervously.

Luca's eyes lit up with excitement. Mo Zhen's eyes gleamed with unwavering determination.

Everyone's mind was gripped by the giant orange arm that was about to unleash its earth-shattering power!
puff--

A faint, awkward sound, like a deflated balloon, rang out clearly in the deathly silent construction site.

Xiao Huolong's right arm, which was surging with fierce fighting spirit, slowly released a warm current of crimson-gold fighting spirit, as if it were leaking urine.

The warm current drifted in the air, so powerful that it seemed incapable of even moving a fallen leaf, let alone collapsing mountains or splitting seas.

At this moment, Xiao Huolong's arm, which was originally capable of shooting everything, became like a limp water pipe that a seventy-year-old man could only use to wet his crotch, filled with an indescribable tragic color.

The entire construction site fell into a deeper and more eerie silence than when it was frozen in time by the strange light.

[Oh my god...?]

Xiaomengzi was the first to break the silence.

Its pink, chubby face instantly twisted and deformed, its beady eyes widened almost to burst, and it let out a pig-like squeal that was a mixture of collapse and despair.

[What...what happened?! Xiao Huolong!!! You...how did you become like this?! You're so young! What...what are we going to do in the future?! Waaaaah...my future...my galaxy...is completely bleak!!!]

Mo Zhen's arrogant and confident expression was like glass shattered by a heavy hammer, instantly becoming covered with cracks.

For the first time, an undisguised deep sorrow clearly surfaced in his resolute eyes.

He slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his voice was hoarse and heavy, as if he had seen through the cruel truth.

"It's... the Will of D! Xiao Huolong's Will of D has disappeared!!"

[The Will of D?]

Everyone was shocked!

The Will of D, a mysterious force that circulates throughout various regions and is given various names! In Unova, it is revered as "Dick"; in Kanto, it is honored as "Diao"!
Regardless of the name, it symbolizes a supreme power that transcends common sense and concerns the origin of life and strength!

Those who possess the Will of D are endowed with the power of an extremely domineering king, their yang energy is abundant and they are invincible; but once they lose the Will of D... they will fall into an abyss of boundless misfortune and sorrow!

That loser Gongping, it was precisely because he lost the Will of D that a series of tragedies occurred!

Now, this curse of misfortune has befallen Xiao Huolong!

"Xiao Huolong...it..."

Mo Zhen's eyes welled up with tears, and her voice trembled with a barely perceptible sob.

"It's completely ruined! I'm afraid it will never be able to unleash the true [Extreme Eight Collapses] again in its lifetime!"

【What?!!】

As if struck by lightning, Xiao Mengzi's pink body trembled violently, and her eyes instantly filled with dreamy tears.

[I'll never be able to use Extreme Eight Collapse in this lifetime?! No! I don't believe it! I can't believe this is true!!! Lord Mo Zhen, tell me this isn't real!!!]

It screamed hysterically, refusing to accept this cruel reality.

However, that is the truth.

Although Xiao Huolong managed to escape death by sacrificing himself to activate the Great Life Infusion Technique, just as the Eight Great Emperors of the Extreme Realm had predicted in his dream: using the ultimate Eight Collapse Technique would come at the cost of completely severing the Eight Great Daos of the Extreme Realm!

Damn it, what kind of script is this where Kurosaki Ichigo uses his final Getsuga Tenshou and loses his Shinigami powers...?

In short, this is reality!
Seeing the figure before him, no longer exuding masculinity, Luca's eyes welled up with tears that flowed uncontrollably!

The once mighty Crimson Dragon General, whose arm could radiate boundless brilliance, is no more. Now, resurrected before them is [Tang Long, the Hanging Trash], a useless dragon who can't even unleash the power of a single collapse!

"Ugh... what happened?"

Xiao Huolong felt the weak and powerless Dou Qi in his arm, as if he were leaking urine. Then he recalled the immense power of the Eight Extreme Collapses, which had once shattered mountains and burned the eight wastelands. The huge difference in power was like being scalded by boiling water.

The light in Xiao Huolong's large, Tang-like eyes quickly dimmed, and immense frustration and fear caused his entire body of fat to tremble uncontrollably.

In an instant, it seemed to transform back into that useless little fire dragon hiding in a dark wooden barrel, unable to even produce a spark, and despised by everyone.

"Hahahahaha!!!"

After a brief silence, Xiu Di's mocking and ecstatic laughter shattered the silence of the construction site.

"You scared the hell out of me! I thought it was some amazing, incredible move! Turns out, this is all?! Hahahaha! It's just a regular Quick Attack! Useless! A trash move of the Normal type, you think you can hurt my Ghost-type chubby one? Go back and memorize the type chart before you come back to embarrass yourself!"

Emperor Xiu laughed so hard he almost fell over, pointing at Xiao Huolong as if he were watching a huge joke.

"Xiao Huolong! Retreat immediately!!!"

Mo Zhen's alarm bells rang wildly, and he shouted sternly!
"Hmph! Want to escape?"

The smile on Xiu Di's face instantly turned into a ferocious killing intent, and his fingers slashed down like knives.

"Fatty, strangle it! Use your [Tighten]!"

"Chirp!!!"

The chubby creature let out a piercing shriek, and its countless originally gently swaying, dark blue tentacles instantly burst forth with astonishing power and resilience, like sea serpents infused with life!
Like maggots clinging to bones, they coiled around Xiao Huolong's fat body with lightning speed, their tentacles tightening and contracting wildly, as if they were about to crush his fat body along with his bones in the next second!
"oh--!!!"

Xiao Huolong let out a painful, trembling voice, his eyes bulging out from being constricted, his tongue hanging out, and his entire face turning a purplish-red from suffocation and excruciating pain!
Hidden in the pile of sleepers, the vine snake, witnessing Xiao Huolong's sudden fall from hero to fat pig waiting to be slaughtered, was so excited that it almost spiraled into the sky!
It frantically pounded the wood beneath it with its tail, emitting a silent yet manic roar.

Hahahaha, yes, absolutely right! Trash should act like trash! Canned peaches, you think you can be a hero? Getting beaten to a pulp like a clown, that's your destiny! Camera guy, squeeze me hard! Squeeze me to death! Squeeze me until I'm mushy! Hahahaha! So satisfying!!!
While tightly binding Xiao Huolong, the chubby, huge, umbrella-shaped body of the creature was surrounded by dense, almost viscous, dark blue water energy that began to gather wildly in front of it!
Thick water vapor filled the air, and a huge water sphere containing terrifying destructive power was rapidly taking shape!
With a cruel, triumphant look on his face, Xiu Di announced the end.

"Canned peaches, game over! Next [water cannon], sending you to your grave! Boom!!!"

At this moment, Mo Zhen's eyes were resolute as he looked at Xiao Huolong with unwavering determination.

"Xiao Huolong is nothing but a water cannon! How could he possibly withstand the forged Dou Qi Gauze Robe! Block it!!!"

“Ahhhh!!!”

At the critical moment of life and death, Xiao Huolong unleashed his last will to survive!

The crimson-gold liquefied battle aura on its body surged wildly, instantly condensing into a solid halo of light on its body!

During the bloody battle at the warehouse, it was this veil that allowed it to withstand the onslaught of countless bullets and energy!
however--

Boom! ...
The [Water Cannon], containing the full power of a level 53 peak Water-type Pokémon, exploded at point-blank range!

That was no longer a stream of water, but a destructive torrent of ultra-high pressure capable of piercing through steel plates. The violent water-attribute energy slammed into the crimson-gold gauze robe!

The standoff lasted less than half a second!
Click——!
The crimson-gold gauze robe shattered instantly, like a fragile eggshell!
The devastating water pressure poured down on Xiao Huolong's unsuspecting, obese body!

"Aa ...

Xiao Huolong let out a shrill, distorted scream. Its massive body transformed into an out-of-control orange flesh bullet at an even faster speed than before, crashing heavily into the mountain of sleepers beside the railway—the direction where the vine snake was hiding!
"Quack quack quack quack quack quack—!!!!"

Through the gaps in the sleepers, the snake's eyes, which had just been filled with schadenfreude, were instantly filled with boundless fear and despair!
As it gazed at the orange mountain of flesh that seemed to grow infinitely larger like a meteorite in its field of vision, it let out a heart-wrenching scream of terror.

"Do not--!!!"

"You...you stay away!!!"

"Help—!!! My path to becoming a God-King—!!!"
