My anime-style card deck is fine!

I choose to use [Flamethrower]!

As a classic move in the Pokémon move series, this card's effect has been significantly enhanced after being brought from fantasy to reality.

Once per turn, this ability grants all opponents the [Burning] counter!

Not only is it an area-of-effect attack, but the first effect also has no limit on the number of uses—no one knows whether the flames spewed out by this cat are mixed with the burning effect of the second effect!

Keep in mind that blocking normal attacks is no simple effect!

In fact, the vast majority of a card player's minions and monsters do not have the ability to attack with effects; on the contrary, minions that can attack with effects are a very small minority.

More often than not, there are some strange things.

These guys all rely on part-time Master Kong instant noodles and fight using only basic attacks.

If you can't perform normal attacks, it means that those follower cards, apart from being able to stay on the field for a long time, are basically just spell cards and ritual cards!

Without the ability to fight, there is no way to win.

In fact, even without using it, these two-star monsters are no match for Litten.

Now at level 30, the Firefly is equivalent to a three-star minion in terms of rank, but its attack power has soared to 1950 points, far exceeding the attack value of a normal minion!

Those ordinary two-star monsters were no match for Litten.

Basically, they can be defeated with a single slap. After passing the twentieth level, you will only face more monsters, but the level will still be two stars.

The troublesome Litten simply took them all away with a single burst of flame!

Amon is advancing at breakneck speed!

Meanwhile, Litten and the rest of the Pokémon are leveling up rapidly.

Although his performance started off out of control, the audience outside the arena felt that this was the level Amon should be at.

Nothing surprising.

But as the levels progressed, Amon's Pokémon became increasingly higher level.

Wang Quan, Nan Ruyin, and others watching from the sidelines grew increasingly solemn. It wasn't just them; the military personnel who cooperated with Amon, Amon's parents, and those who had noticed the potential of Amon's deck all wore increasingly serious expressions.

But his expression subtly betrayed a mixture of anticipation and disbelief!

As the three guardian monsters of the thirty-seventh level were taken down by Litten's Flame Shot, Litten suddenly stopped, its body radiating a white upgrade glow.

Amon stopped and waved to Firefly.

This move immediately attracted the attention of everyone watching Amon from the sidelines. They became even more focused, not daring to blink for fear of missing anything crucial!

"Is it coming?"

"No, the level isn't high enough yet. Amon must be planning something else."

"It's really worrying! Can't Amon just be a little more efficient?!"

"Quiet! Be patient, it's almost time. Amon's follower is about to arrive at that crucial moment!"

People outside the venue were talking about it.

Inside the arena, Firefly Cat conjured a card out of thin air and presented it to Amon like a treasure.

Amon accepted it with some emotion.

Sure enough, it was the [Flash Charge] that Amon had been longing for!

"...You're already level 36."

Amon sat down cross-legged with a complicated expression, and Firefly seemed to sense something, obediently jumping into Amon's arms and letting him touch it all over.

It only meows when it feels good from being scratched.

The other Pokémon seemed to sense something and gathered around, surrounding Amon and Litten, quietly waiting for the most dazzling miracle in the Pokémon world!

"Meow!"

After a while, when the people outside were getting a little impatient, Firefly jumped out of Amon's arms and meowed at Amon.

"Is that so? Since it's your wish, let's begin."

Although it's hard to say goodbye to Litten's cute appearance, its final evolved form is the true number one Pokémon in the universe!

Amon also stood up.

Remove the card representing Litten from the Duel Disk, and with a simple rub, a card appears out of thin air. At the same time, the Everstone that always hangs around Litten's neck disappears.

"The time has come; let us hear thunderous applause!"

The reluctance on Amon's face vanished, replaced by excitement: "Now's the time! It's time to evolve!"

"—Firefly Cat!"

We've been prepared for this for a long time!

The Fire-spotted Cat also let out a fierce meow, its body radiating a dazzling white light.

The radiance grew ever brighter, and the Fire-spotted Cat's figure expanded, growing from the size of a normal cat to the size of a wolfhound.

Perhaps describing it as a cat is no longer appropriate; it can only be described as a little leopard!

However, the brilliance of the Fiery Cat was fleeting. The slightly dimmed evolutionary glow returned to full bloom after the Fiery Cat shook itself!

"Meow—Roar!!!"

The hot cat let out a sharp hiss, which grew louder and louder until it finally roared out of its mouth!

The crimson figure suddenly stood up.

Its figure grew taller and taller, surpassing Amon in an instant, and even continued to rise!

When the light faded, a figure over three meters tall appeared in the spot.

Calm, majestic, and domineering!

For a moment, Amon seemed to see a silent volcano, standing right in front of him, its calm and mountain-like aura making Amon feel somewhat dazed.

The little kitten that used to rub against his ankle and roll around affectionately has grown up...

"Congratulations."

A smile of delight spread across Amon's face: "Blazing Roaring Tiger."

"Whoosh!" The Fiery Roaring Tiger in front of him suddenly opened its mouth wide, revealing a silly grin, and picked up Amon in a princess carry.

Just like when Amon held her when she was little.

—She's wanted to do this for a long time!

Chapter 106: "Duel!"

"Hmm~!"

The Blazing Roaring Tiger opened its massive jaws, revealing a mouthful of fangs.

Then, he suddenly opened his arms wide and hugged Amon tightly in his arms. He didn't let go for a while, grinning widely and staring intently at Amon.

"Alright, alright, it's already this big."

Amon chuckled and patted the Fiery Roaring Tiger's chest.

Taking a slight step back, Amon looked the Blazing Roaring Tiger up and down. The Roaring Tiger then struck a muscular pose, and Amon realized that his Roaring Tiger was slightly different from the normal Roaring Tiger.

Unlike the monotonous images in games and anime, Amon's roaring tiger has waist-length spiky hair (the same style as Madara Uchiha).

The black fur was interspersed with striking bright red.

His muscles were like tangled steel bars, and his crimson skin covered with black tiger stripes radiated heat and danger like magma.

Perhaps because Amon's Blazing Roaring Tiger is female, the flame belt that originally only encircled the waist was indeed enlarged considerably, burning into a ferocious tiger face pattern on the Blazing Roaring Tiger's chest.

Just by standing there, he exudes a powerful and awe-inspiring presence!

—[Intimidation]!

Compared to its previous form as Litten, which relied solely on rules and was more of a cute trait than an intimidating one, Incineroar now truly embodies intimidation!

It seems to have the same effect as the previous Litten Cat era.

But the effect limitation of ten meters was not used!

"call!"

The Blazing Roaring Tiger gave Amon a thumbs up, declaring that Amon's safety would henceforth be in her hands!

"Squeak!" "Hmph~" "Fist!" "Doraku Doraku Doraku~!"

The Pokémon around them also gathered together.

They chattered around the Fiery Roaring Tiger, seemingly excited about something, while the Fiery Roaring Tiger gave a thumbs-up, revealing a set of bright white teeth.

It was lively for a while.

Amon set off again with his Pokémon. Although there was much discussion outside about the evolution of Incineroar, it did not affect Amon's progress.

The thirty-eighth and thirty-ninth were quickly approved.

As soon as Amon pushed open the door to the 40th level, he immediately noticed the tall, three-star monster surrounded by four other monsters in the center, whose body looked like it was made of mercury!

——The Black Mamba of Mercury——

Attributes: Steel/Water; Level 3; Attack 1200, Defense 800

Effect 1: Mercury Body - Reduces damage taken from normal attacks by 30%.

Effect 2: Mercury Poison - When an attack hits a target, give the target a [Mercury Poison] counter. Each turn, the minion holding the counter loses 1/8 of its health.

"Hiss—!" The mercury serpent stared coldly at Amon as he entered the room, its eyes flashing with excitement and bloodlust.

Then, the snake was slapped hard by the Fiery Roaring Tiger that jumped out.

They were completely stunned.

—【High-Five Surprise Attack】!

"[Roar loudly]." Amon stood not far away, casually issuing the command.

Upon receiving the order, the Blazing Roaring Tiger grabbed the still bewildered Black Mamba's jaws with both hands and let out a deafening roar into the snake's mouth!
