Pokémon, you're not allowed to expel me from human form!

With that, Alice waved to Karen, left the audience seats on the other side, and walked towards the arena.

Now that Rocco has decisively defeated Carmen, and because of Carmen's last words, no one is playing for the time being, and Alice thinks this is a good opportunity.

Carmen took the first challenge, so she'll take the second one!

Alice raised her eyebrows and left with a fierce determination, while Karen pondered her last words, lost in thought.

"Points of interest and places to linger..."

Karen thought about it carefully and realized it was true.

First of all, it's very comfortable to be around Luo Ke.

He was very thoughtful in many ways—for example, she liked to be with the simple elves after she no longer needed to think about those complicated things, which is why she declined one of Rocco's invitations, and Rocco gradually realized this afterward.

Later, whether it was inviting her to dinner or other activities, they would intentionally or unintentionally avoid the time she spent with the elves.

Ningya never seemed to notice this, or perhaps even when she did, she felt she should go out more—it's hard to say.

Secondly, Luo Ke possesses the power of Aura, and became a Uranus at a young age. He is not only extremely powerful, but also not bad-looking—especially when he awakened his Aura power—at that time, his entire body was covered in Aura, and that aura was very easy to leave an impression on people.

Finally... I've definitely reached the age where I should care about these kinds of things.

The main branch of the family in this generation consists only of the two sisters, and Carmen must have realized that he wanted to match her with Rocco.

If that's the case, then Karen understands what she meant by what she said earlier.

"Hmm... She doesn't even like Luo Ke and wants to push him onto me, so we shouldn't have too much expectation of her in this matter."

"And I'll have to think about these things sooner or later, so... Rocco is really a good target."

Karen, sitting in the audience, still had her arms crossed and was frowning.

But without realizing it, the things she was thinking about underwent a complete transformation.

Alice was unaware of all this.

She seized the opportunity to appear in front of Rocco and took out a Poké Ball.

When Luo Ke saw that her was the second challenger, he temporarily put aside the things he couldn't understand.

"Alice, what rules would you like to use to launch your challenge?"

Hearing Rocco say this, Alice breathed a sigh of relief, and then her eyes suddenly became firm.

“Roco, we became trainers together, and I haven’t beaten you even once since then. I know that if I challenge you now, the result won’t change at all. It’s not time for me to win back now.”

"But I realized the gap in strength last time, and I have been working hard to improve the strength of my Pokémon."

"So let's go one-on-one—Roco, I hope you can bring out your strongest Pokémon."

"Let me see it."

"See just how big the gap is between me and you!"

......

38. The shock brought by Mewtwo

The strongest?

Upon hearing Alice mention this, even Mewtwo immediately turned its attention to Roko.

After all, when it comes to the strongest member of their team... it can only be the Dark Hero!

With Roko at the core, Necrozma provides the armor, Victini provides the energy, Mewtwo provides the psychic power, Aegislash provides the weapon, and Ditto provides the accessories.

Ultimate Six-in-One!

But realizing their thoughts, Rocco decisively grabbed the pendant he always wore.

He knew perfectly well what Alice wanted.

While the combined form is indeed their team's strongest form, it's not the power of an individual; if you had to name it, it would be considered a tactic in this world.

Alice, however, proposed a one-on-one arrangement.

So...

"Mewtwo, I choose you."

As Luo Ke spoke, a beam of light burst forth from the pendant he was holding, seeping through his fingers.

The light itself wasn't particularly bright, but Alice and the other spectators watching the arena inexplicably felt that the surroundings had darkened by several degrees—within this effect, Mewtwo appeared directly in front of Rocco.

"This is my strongest spirit."

Hearing Rocco say this, Alice and most of the audience were probably surprised.

Even Ning Ya, who had fought against Luo Ke in the battle for the throne, and Yulika, who knew Luo Ke best—they were both very surprised!

Tian Sui, who was also watching the live stream, stood up excitedly, eager to see Mewtwo's outstanding performance.

"it is good."

On the field, Alice snapped out of her surprise as she watched Roc walk toward the trainer platform and headed straight for the other trainer platform.

During this process, Alice also took a Poké Ball from her waist.

This is the strongest Pokémon in her current team.

It wasn't a different species or color of Misdreavus, nor was it a slightly more grown Laplace, nor was it either of the two Pokémon she had recently captured.

Rather, it was her initial spirit.

"Go, Pikachu!"

After climbing onto the trainer's platform, Alice immediately put Pikachu into the arena.

At this moment, the sound of machinery rang out inside the stadium for the second time today.

The match begins!

With this announcement, Alice, standing on the high platform, clasped her hands together, slowly opened her mouth, and sang a simple, beautiful melody without even a single lyric.

Her actions caused Pikachu to move!

'Pikachu Pikachu Pikachu—'

Golden electricity burst forth from the electric sacs on its face, quickly enveloping it as it ran desperately, suppressing its colors, and transforming it into a bolt of lightning that flew from the ground!

As the strongest member of Alice's team, Pikachu has put in a lot of effort recently, and Alice has also spent a lot of time and energy on it.

It has now undergone special training in speed, strength, and the storage of its own electrical energy. At the same time, its current carry is the Electric Ball, which Alice acquired at a high price!

This thing greatly enhances Pikachu's strength and electric energy, making its attack incredibly powerful!

Combining speed and power, this is Alice's Pikachu.

but...

Its rival is Mewtwo.

Alice wants to see the difference in skill, so Rocco won't let Mewtwo hold back.

hum-

Mewtwo's eyes gleamed as it faced the charging Pikachu.

Then, Pikachu, its entire body electrified, rushed in front of it!

boom!

A loud collision rang out, but the scene on the field rendered many spectators who wanted to make a sound completely speechless.

Mewtwo remained standing in the same spot. Before it, an invisible barrier formed by immense spiritual power trembled, causing the air to ripple like water.

Pikachu... its all-out attack crashed into the mental barrier.

It's like sprinkling a drop of water into a great lake.

Apart from these ripples, there was no other movement!

Only then did Mewtwo slowly raise its hand towards Pikachu, which was still exerting its full strength.

Its movements were graceful and gentle, and its outstretched finger only lightly touched Pikachu's forehead.

So it killed the game.

Alice's Pikachu was gently placed on the ground with the help of her psychic powers, and its eyes had turned into spirals, rendering it unable to fight!

Faced with such a disparity, the audience, who had just recovered from Rocco's victory over Carmen, fell silent once again.

Even Alice was visibly taken aback.

For a moment, she could hardly believe it—was the gap between herself and Luo Ke really that huge?

But the next moment, her eyebrows furrowed, and as she recalled Pikachu, her gaze toward Rocco became even more intense.

She won't give up!

Even if the gap is huge, she will try her best to catch up!

Because they made a promise, they would say some things in the way of trainers during the battle to determine the strongest!

So she will continue step by step until she reaches the pinnacle of being a trainer!

Alice is like this.

Her fighting spirit and determination were astonishing, even Luo Ke acknowledged her skill.

But other trainers are different in this regard.

Today, a large majority of those sitting in the audience are trainers from all over the world.

Trainers who specifically prepared tactics to target Roko probably account for less than a third of the total; the remaining two-thirds simply brought their main teams.

They believed in their own abilities and in their partners.

but...

Having witnessed Rocco's two battles, most trainers became serious and silently gave up on challenging him.

Meanwhile, some trainers who were on their way or hadn't even set off yet simply gave up on coming.

Can't win.

If the cowboy rule were applied, Rocco would be instantly killed with his speed.

If the normal competition rules are applied, then whether it's one-on-one or two-on-two, facing Rocco's Mewtwo... there's no chance of winning!

Luo Ke's two matches today scared away 90% of the opponents who originally intended to challenge him.

Only two types of people haven't given up yet.

One type is trainers similar to Alice, who either enjoy battling or challenging strong opponents. In any case, they were excited after seeing Rocco's strength!

There's another type... trainers who specifically prepared Dark-type Pokémon!

Especially the trainers who wear black robes off the field.

Upon seeing Mewtwo, he took out a special device. Without any detailed testing, even though Mewtwo had subdued itself, the unique spiritual energy and power fluctuations of Psychic-type Pokémon on its body were incredibly pure, vast, and obvious.

That's why this guy was certain of one thing.

"This is a Psychic-type Pokémon, and a pure Psychic-type at that!"

"His strength is indeed terrifying. He truly deserves to be called this guy's ace. He's probably already at the champion level."

"If it were any other type, I'd turn and run, but Psychic, I can still go one-on-one... Hey, go talk to my Hydreigon!"

......

39. This is the power of God (1)

"next."

Alice turned and left the stage. Rocco watched her leave, then looked around at the audience, but no one dared to respond to him.

Is the first day of this arena battle going to end so abruptly?

No, I don't.

"I'll take on you, Superpower King, in the third match, hehe."
