Bottom-tier trainers in the Pokémon world

"Yongji." Yongjira raised his spoon, intending to use the Switching Grounds and Teleportation to dodge the attack with his dual sword sheaths.

But Xia Yan's raised hand stopped its movement.

"Yong Ji?"

Yongjira looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Beneath Xia Yan's tightly furrowed brows, a hint of a smile and a sigh appeared in his bright eyes.

He whispered, "Trust it."

That's right.

Believe it.

As a companion, just choose to believe it.

Upon hearing this, Yongjira paused for a moment before nodding emphatically.

But he didn't put down the spoon he was holding, not to rescue Twin Scabbards, but to prepare to finish off the leader of the heavy mud-drawn horse after Twin Scabbards' plan took effect.

What exactly are the two sword sheaths for?

It had actually been waiting for an opportunity ever since it had a heart-to-heart talk with Xia Yan in Shenhe Town.

Upon entering this alternate dimension, they found themselves in a complex network of underground tunnels. They had no chance against the Night Thief Salamander, Dragon Head Gopher, and other large groups. They were also clearly outmatched by the Blazing Tortoise Beast and had no chance against it either. As for the Rogue Crocodile group, their sheer size made it impossible for Xia Yan to face them, and for his safety, he had no opportunity to confront them.

When facing Hoshino Ryuzaki's Sandstorm Team, it was a life-or-death battle, and there was no chance at all.

But this time, it felt its opportunity had arrived!

The Heavy Mudwight herd was small, and apart from the Heavy Mudwight leader, the rest had already been mostly harvested by the Beedrill and their companions.

Furthermore, the heavy impact from the leader of the mud-drawn horse caused it to feel considerable pressure.

All it needs to do is wait.

What are you waiting for?

Wait for the other one to come out!

Another aspect of the dual sword sheaths.

As Xia Yan said, letting 'them' have a good chat might allow them to unleash the full potential of the combo attack of the Holy Sword.

I don’t know when it started, but the timid, cautious, and overthinking Twin Swords Sheaths’ personality was gradually changed by Xia Yan’s influence.

If it were the old dual sword sheaths, it would never have done such a crazy thing, which it considered suicidal.

But now, the twin sword sheaths, which put Xia Yan's words first, have broken free from the constraints of their inherent personalities and changed themselves for Xia Yan's sake.

This change brings a great sense of accomplishment to every trainer.

Xia Yan stopped Yongjira's actions precisely because he saw what the twin sword sheaths were trying to do.

failure?

as a result of?

nonexistent!

As the trainer of Dual Blades, he is completely trusted by Dual Blades, and in return, he trusts Dual Blades completely.

It is this mutual trust that forges the unbreakable bond between trainers and Pokémon.

"coming."

Xia Yan finished speaking.

"sigh?!"

The other eye, which had been tightly closed by the double sword sheaths, suddenly opened, and a voice that was almost a curse came out from it.

'Holy shit...'

The hot-tempered guy is online!

Chapter Sixty-One: The Flamboyant Twin Sword Sheaths

"sigh!!"

The dual scabbards successfully brought out another hidden aspect of its personality.

But now is clearly not the time to argue. The heavy charge of the mud-pulling horse is already upon us, and it's too late to dodge. Its nature also prevents it from doing so.

no way.

Clang!

The two swords collided and rubbed against each other, sparks flying everywhere, as if they were encouraging and stimulating each other.

Immediately afterwards, huge blue phantom images appeared on both swords in the double sheaths.

The Holy Sword.

Unlike usual, this time there are two!

Previously, even when the two swords in the dual scabbards used both blades to launch continuous attacks, the phantom of the holy sword would only quickly appear on the other sword after one sword had fallen.

Although the intervals are very short and the dual scabbards are excellent at controlling the rhythm and timing of the attack, they are not actually appearing at the same time, so there are bound to be gaps and loopholes.

Such weaknesses are not easy to exploit when battling ordinary Pokémon, and may even be impossible to find.

However, if a Pokémon is strong enough and has high enough combat skills, this could very well become an opening for the opponent to exploit, allowing them to launch a counterattack during the gaps in the attack. In that case, the dual sword sheaths could very likely fall into a disadvantageous position, or even be defeated outright.

As a trainer, Xia Yan naturally noticed this shortcoming of the dual sheaths a long time ago.

It may sound simple, but it's actually very difficult to make up for it. It takes a lot of time to try, work through, and train.

Even in the end, it may not be possible to truly solve this problem; the most likely outcome is simply to reduce the time when weaknesses appear and to reduce the gaps in the connection between moves.

So he came up with a possible idea.

That is to have the two personalities of the two sword sheaths each control one sword, attempting to achieve a seamless transition.

Of course, this is only a theoretical possibility. After all, no matter how many personalities the dual scabbards may have, in the end, they are all the same thing.

Personality is merely a byproduct that has evolved for some reason.

He didn't know whether he would succeed or not.

But now Xia Yan is certain.

It can be done, and the dual scabbards can do it even better!

All I saw was...

A turquoise halo rose above the two phantoms of holy swords, a combination of continuous slashes and holy sword attacks.

The two swords crossed, meeting head-on the heavy impact of the mud-pulled horse.

If a single sword in a double-scabbard cannot withstand the heavy impact of a mud-drawn horse, then the simultaneous exertion of force by both swords is a different story.

boom!!

A tremendous roar echoed through the third floor. The massive impact of the collision sent the twin sword sheaths flying backward, slamming them hard against the wall.

Although the heavy mud horse wasn't as badly injured as the double-sword sheathed horse, it still stumbled back several steps before slowly regaining its balance. It kept shaking its head and exhaling thick breaths, the recoil from the collision making it feel a little dizzy.

The result was obvious: the heavy mud-pulling horse ultimately gained the upper hand.

But this is not the final result.

"sigh!!"

The twin sword sheaths that had crashed into the wall wobbled and floated down from above. It had lost the previous contest, but its own battle had only just begun.

They charged swiftly toward the heavy mud horse, their twin swords once again enveloped in the azure phantom of the holy sword, and the emerald-green light of their continuous slashes grew even more intense.

This is the second sword strike!

And there are two of them!

"Hiss!"

The heavy mud-drawn horse shook its head. Seeing the twin sword sheaths charging towards it, it was not to be outdone. Due to the previous attacks, a lot of orange-red mud had seeped out of its body. The "endurance" characteristic enhanced its defense.

It stomped its forehooves hard on the ground, and a special orange halo of ground-based energy emanated from its body as it charged towards the twin sword sheaths at full speed.

100,000 horsepower!

Bang! ! !

An even louder roar than before, the twin holy swords slashed in succession from their dual sheaths, and the heavy mud-pulling horse pulled by ten thousand horsepower.

When the clash between the two spirits ended, the result was completely the opposite of what had happened before.

The heavy mud-drawn horse slid along the ground for a long time, only stopping when it was almost touching the wall, while the double sword sheaths just swayed in place for a moment.

however.

This is still just a transition.

"sigh!"

The twin scabbards pressed their advantage, charging forward once more. The heavy mud-pulling horse gritted its teeth, its eyes wide with disbelief. It had never lost in such a straight-line collision, a clash of pure power.

Especially when the opponent is still such a "lightweight" guy.

But the attack from the twin sword sheaths was already upon them, and they had no time to hesitate or waver.

It leaped high once more, and crashed with tremendous force once more, pushing its body weight to its limit.

What awaited it was the third strike of the Holy Sword in its twin sheaths!

Two!

Boom! Boom!

With just a brief contact and collision, the heavy mud-drawn horse was sent flying as if it had hit a steel plate, crashing heavily against the wall with a dull thud.

It slowly slid to the ground, losing its ability to move again.

"sigh!"

As the victor, Shuangjianshe proudly held up his two swords, surveying the entire third floor. His gaze and aura conveyed only three words.
