Suddenly, Gongsun Yan felt that he had entered a very strange state. Although he didn't know what was happening, he clearly felt that his speed had increased, or that the people or things around him had slowed down.
However, Gongsun Yan, who was eager to save people, had no intention of carefully perceiving the situation and just continued to rush towards Xingjia's position.
Finally, at the moment before the spiritual light hit, Gongsun Yan rushed to Xingjia's side. He hugged Xingjia, who was standing there in a daze, and rolled to the side of the road, avoiding the spiritual light.
From the perspective of Xiaozhi and the others, Gongsun Yan's already very fast running speed directly reached a higher level. Unlike Miss Yuezi who saw this scene for the first time, Xiaozhi and the others had seen a similar scene not long ago.
That's right, it was the time when Satoshi and Brock used "High-Speed Movement" to intercept the truck. Gongsun Yan's current state is the same as Satoshi and the others at that time. He increased his speed to a state that is almost impossible to achieve in an instant.
Xiaozhi and Xiaogang were also shocked when they saw Gongsun Yan also use "High-Speed Movement". They were originally planning to use High-Speed Movement to save Xingjia, but Gongsun Yan was one step ahead of them.
However, Gongsun Yan was obviously not as skilled as Xiaozhi and Xiaogang. After forcibly increasing his speed, he was already close to his limit. When rolling to the side of the road, he tried his best to protect Xingjia in his arms, and when he finally stopped, he made sure to stay under Xingjia.
After completing all these operations, Gongsun Yan fainted very quickly, and only had time to release the hands that were tightly holding Xingjia.
After seeing Gongsun Yan rescue Xingjia, Xiaozhi and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Then, a lot of anger suddenly appeared in their eyes, and they stared fiercely at Musashi who was looking smug in the air.
Chapter 158: Angry Pokémon
"Fire Eevee, spray flames!" After seeing that her daughter and Gongsun Yan were not seriously injured, Yuezi decided to vent all her anger.
Flareon's mouth was open, and visible hot flames were constantly gathering in his mouth. Suddenly, Flareon felt a huge deterrent spreading around him, and a big hand like a palm leaf fan pushed Flareon to the side.
When Flareon was about to turn around to see who pushed him away, he was also in a bad mood and was ready to let the other party taste his power.
As a result, when Flareon turned around, he saw a group of Pokémon with extremely ferocious expressions. The look in the eyes of the leading Swampert made Flareon unable to help but look away. He did not dare to look directly at the other party, and even took the initiative to make way for Swampert and the others.
That’s right, this group of Pokémon that suddenly appeared were the Pokémon that Gongsun Yan carried with him. Pokémon can also sense the situation nearby when they stay in the Poké Ball. This is why when their owners are in danger, their Pokémon will take the initiative to come out of the ball to protect them. This is precisely a symbol of a good relationship between trainers and Pokémon.
However, after entering the Poké Ball, Pokémon will often fall into a sleeping state to reduce losses, and their ability to perceive the external environment will become extremely weak. This is why Pokémon will only come out of the ball to protect their trainers in times of crisis.
Needless to say, the intimacy between Gongsun Yan and his Pokémon is very close, and even if measured by numbers, it is extremely close to the maximum value. However, it takes a certain amount of time for the Pokémon to release the ball to protect the trainer. After all, it takes time for a Poké Ball in a shrunk state to return to its original state.
This also led to the situation that when Gongsun Yan rescued Xingjia, Swampert and the others in the Poké Ball looked very anxious, but no Pokémon appeared by Gongsun Yan's side in time to help.
After Gongsun Yan passed out, Swampert and the others finally broke free from the Poké Ball. Swampert even broke his original Poké Ball because he struggled so hard.
In other words, in order to avenge its trainer, Swampert is even willing to turn itself into a "wild" Pokémon. This also means that Swampert, the Pokémon with the best temper among the three Pokémon from Hoenn, is completely angry.
Following Swampert were Lucario and Gardevoir. Sharknado appeared a little later than other Pokémon because of its weaker strength.
After appearing, Gardevoir immediately knelt beside Gongsun Yan, with pink healing light constantly emerging from its hands. Gardevoir carefully placed its hands on Gongsun Yan's body, healing him while also observing his physical condition.
The rescued Xingjia knelt beside the unconscious Gongsun Yan with an anxious look on his face. He watched Gardevoir constantly treating Gongsun Yan while he was powerless to do anything. The originally mature Xingjia, who acted like a little adult, couldn't help but shed tears.
After Swampert pushed Flareon away, he yelled at Dragonite in the air.
"Gah! (Knock those bastards down for me!)"
After hearing Swampert's roar, Dragonite suddenly burst out with a speed far beyond its previous speed, and the dragon claws condensed on its two front paws became even bigger and more solid.
Seeing Dragonite coming, Musashi quickly pushed Flying Dragon to the front. Although Dragonite was very angry at Team Rocket, he also knew that it was the right thing to do at this moment to obey the orders of the big brother in the team. He was not the only one who wanted to beat up the opponent.
So Dragonite decisively ignored the Flying Tiger that was pushed in front of it, and simply grabbed the Rocket Team's hot air balloon with its dragon claws and smashed it into pieces. Feeling unsatisfied, he sprayed a jet of flame at the wreckage of the hot air balloon.
Team Rocket, whose hot air balloon was destroyed, screamed and fell to the ground, and finally crashed heavily to the ground.
Seeing Team Rocket falling in front of it, Swampert shouted to Lucario and Land Shark behind him, and took the lead to walk towards Team Rocket who fell next to the hot air balloon.
Lucario and Sharktooth also followed Swampert in silence. Needless to say, Lucario was famous for his loyalty. He saw that his master was injured by Team Rocket and he was still not awake. He had already thought about how to deal with the opponent.
Sharptooth Land Shark has just grown up from a child, and the importance of his master Gongsun Yan in his heart is second only to Shakiras.
Pokémon are almost all very simple creatures. What they believe in is simply that if you are good to me, I will be good to you. Sharknado is no exception. Although he used to be very naughty, he still knows who is good to him.
This caused the three Pokémon heading towards Team Rocket to have an increasingly heavy aura, almost like murderous intent, but Pokémon are generally very kind by nature, and they had no intention of killing Team Rocket at all, they just wanted to teach them a lesson.
Of course, this is all based on the assumption that Gongsun Yan is fine. If something happens to Gongsun Yan, it is not uncommon for Pokémon to lurk for many years and eventually kill their enemies to avenge their trainers.
Swampert walked in front of Team Rocket, raised his head, and looked down at Team Rocket who fell to the ground.
"ga! (Hand over the ribbon!)" Swampert narrowed his eyes slightly and growled at Team Rocket in front of him.
After hearing the strong impatience in Swampert's tone, Meowth quickly translated Swampert's words to Musashi and the others, and then Meowth and Kojiro immediately began to persuade Musashi.
But Musashi didn't quite realize the situation and didn't even want to hand over the ribbon. His right hand was still covering Miss Yuezi's ribbon hanging around his neck.
"Shark!" The Sharptooth Land Shark was obviously in no mood to waste time with Musashi. He simply raised his right hand and placed his sharpest claw on Musashi's neck, indicating that he would stab him if Musashi dared to move.
As expected, the arrogant are afraid of the weak. Musashi didn't dare to move in front of the claws of the Sharptooth Land Shark. He quickly raised his hands to show that he had no ill intentions.
Seeing that Musashi didn't dare to move, Lucario walked forward, first took off the Miss Yuezi ribbon from Musashi's neck, then used the waveguide to find Xiaoyao's ribbon box on Musashi's body, and reached out to take it out from Musashi.
After getting the lost ribbon, Lucario threw the ribbon to Xiaoyao and Miss Yuezi behind him, and together with other Pokémon surrounded Team Rocket.
They now have another score to settle with Team Rocket!
Chapter 159: The Reverse Scale Lasted for Ten Minutes
After handing over the ribbon, Team Rocket prepared to sneak out from the side, but before they took a few steps, they found that their figures were covered by a group of dark shadows.
"Well, we've already handed over the ribbon, can you let us go?" Kojiro looked up and saw that Swampert had no intention of letting them go. He was so scared that his legs went limp and he quickly begged for mercy.
Swampert didn't say anything, but just led a group of Pokémon to continuously reduce the distance between them and Team Rocket. Musashi's Toxicopter had been planning to use a move in the air to stop Swampert and his team's advance, but Dragonite, which was hovering above them, slammed Toxicopter to the ground with a dragon claw.
After seeing that Toxicorn was beaten and lost its ability to fight, Musashi took out her Poké Ball and took Toxicorn back. She did not release Snake after that. After all, she knew that Snake's strength would be useless, so she simply did not release it to be beaten.
Swampert and his men gradually compressed the range of activities of Musashi and his men, until finally they had to huddle together and hug each other to resist the threat of Swampert and his men.
"ga! (Go!)" Swampert roared, stomped his right foot hard on the ground, and used the Earthquake move to attack Team Rocket.
Following Swampert's order, Lucario and Sharktooth couldn't wait to rush towards Team Rocket, who were unstable due to the earthquake.
Land Shark immediately used the Scale Reverse move, uprooting the land under Team Rocket's feet and throwing it into the air with force.
Lucario first rubbed out two wave missiles, which completely shattered the soil under the feet of Team Rocket and forced them to stay in the air. Then he jumped directly into the air, clapped his hands and rubbed out a bone stick, and knocked Team Rocket into the air one by one.
The Tyrannosaurus flying in the air also condensed dragon claws on its two front paws, and like playing ball, it knocked the Rockets from the air to the ground one after another.
Then, Lucario and Land Shark on the ground sent Team Rocket into the air again, forming a closed-loop system.
Swampert also stopped using the Earthquake move and instead used the Water Gun move to beat Team Rocket who had strayed from the area back into the attack range of Lucario and Sharktooth.
Then Team Rocket kept moving up and down in the air, with one move after another exploding on them. Of course, Swampert and the others held back, and those moves would only cause pain to them, but would not hurt them.
In addition, after treating Gongsun Yan, Gardevoir also joined Swampert and his team's baseball team. Naturally, the baseball team consisted of Team Rocket and his team.
However, as the only conscience in Gongsun Yan's team, Gardevoir naturally would not attack people like Swampert and others. On the contrary, she kept using healing waves to heal Team Rocket and others in the air to ensure that they would not be injured.
As for the final effect, it can be seen from Team Rocket's increasingly miserable screams. After discovering that Gardevoir was healing Team Rocket, Swampert and the others stopped holding back. Anyway, Gardevoir has enough healing power and will never let Team Rocket suffer any serious injuries.
Xiaoyao and the others, who had taken back the ribbon, felt relieved at first when they saw Swampert and the others' behavior. However, after watching Swampert and the others play baseball for a full five minutes, they gradually became uneasy.
When Team Rocket had been flying in the air for nearly ten minutes, Brock couldn't help but step forward to dissuade Swampert, but Swampert just politely asked Brock to go back, and then fired another water gun at the falling Golem.
Just when Xiaozhi and the others were worried that Swampert would not be able to control his strength and cause a disaster, Gongsun Yan, who was lying beside them, finally woke up.
"Uh~, this is a strange sky, what's going on now?" Gongsun Yan struggled to stand up, feeling a stinging pain in his head. He couldn't help but hold his head with his hands, and his body, which had just stood up, was about to fall to the ground again.
Xing Jia, who had been guarding Gongsun Yan, also hurriedly supported Gongsun Yan, preventing him from falling down and injuring himself again.
"Well, it's all because of me that you..." Xingjia burst into tears of joy when she saw Gongsun Yan wake up. However, the tears of joy were gradually replaced by tears of regret, and her clear voice also had a hint of crying.
"Don't cry! I can't stand seeing girls cry. What are you doing? Stop crying." Gongsun Yan's paws went numb when he saw Xingjia in front of him suddenly started crying. Even though he had the memories of two lives, he didn't have any skills on how to coax a girl in his brain.
Just when Gongsun Yan was busy comforting Xingjia, Xiaogang at the side couldn't help but interrupt Gongsun Yan and said very seriously.
"Xiao Yan, hurry up and make the Swampert stop! If they keep fighting like this, things may not be so easy to solve."
It was not until then that Gongsun Yan noticed Team Rocket and their teammates who were constantly landing and taking off nearby. He immediately understood what Xiaogang was worried about. Even though he could not see whether the power of Swampert and his teammates' moves had changed, he could see at a glance that Land Shark's eyes were getting redder and more ferocious.
You should know that Land Shark's strength is relatively weak compared to his other partners, but he has demonstrated the same strength within these ten minutes, and what he relied on is the reverse scale move.
Unlike in the game, any dragon-type Pokémon or any Pokémon that can evolve into a dragon-type Pokémon can learn the move "Rise of Scale". The essence of this move is to completely liberate the body's protective mechanism and fully unleash its own strength.
This move, Reverse Scale, combined with the powerful physique of Dragon-type Pokémon is one of the reasons why Dragon-type Pokémon stand at the top of the world. However, the Reverse Scale move is a double-edged sword, which hurts itself while killing the enemy.
The body's protective mechanism is meant to protect its owner, and relying on the powerful body of a dragon-type Pokémon, there is no problem in activating it for a short period of time. However, Land Shark was activated for a full ten minutes without any rest or pause, and it was not even in its final form.
Another side effect of the inverse scale is that it will greatly suppress the user's rationality. Gongsun Yan saw that the current Sharptooth Land Shark was relying entirely on willpower to hold on, and he might go completely crazy at any time. At that time, the Rocket Team, who would have no ability to resist him, might not be able to survive.
"Everyone, stop it! I'm awake! Sharptooth Land Shark, especially you, stop using the reverse scale!"
Chapter 160: Failure of Playing Cool
After hearing Gongsun Yan's shout, almost all Pokémon turned to look at Gongsun Yan. The Rocket Team in the air finally landed for the first time in these ten minutes.
Gardevoir was obviously the conscience of the team. It used its telekinesis to catch all the Team Rocket members falling from the sky, and dropped them when they were one meter above the ground, and also gave them a few healing waves.
As to whether it was for the sake of the Rockets or simply to destroy the body, that depends on one's own opinion.
The Rocket Team who fell to the ground did not run away. After being hit so many times in the air, they no longer had the strength to escape. They could only lie on the ground gasping for breath and retching continuously. The energetic Ong also immediately retracted into the Poké Ball on Musashi's body.
The Sharp-Toothed Land Shark, whose eyes had already turned red, stopped his dragon claws for the first time after hearing Gongsun Yan's voice. After seeing Gongsun Yan barely standing up with the help of Xingjia, the redness in his eyes immediately faded away and returned to its original clarity.
"Shark~" The Sharp-Toothed Land Shark, which had exited the inverse scale state, only had time to smile at Gongsun Yan. It fell to the ground before it could even make a standard Kuga hand gesture.
The moment Shark fell, Gardevoir's healing wave fell on Shark, healing the wounds that were caused by Shark's reverse scale being open for a long time.
Although Gardevoir's proficiency in healing waves is very high, she can only heal physical injuries and has no way to heal mental fatigue.
Seeing Land Shark fall, Gongsun Yan gently pushed away Xingjia's hand that was supporting him, and slowly but firmly walked towards his Pokémon.
It was not until then that Xiaozhi and the others discovered that Gongsun Yan's body was slowly covered with small cuts, and as Gongsun Yan moved forward, blood continued to seep out.
Not only that, Xingjia and Xiaogang, who had had close contact with Gongsun Yan before, also found that Gongsun Yan's eyes were full of bloodshot, and his pupils were completely dilated at first, and only focused with great difficulty later. It can be seen that he could not see clearly at this time.
What Xiaozhi and the others didn't know was that when Gongsun Yan walked towards Swampert and the others, the expression on his face had completely frozen, and he even couldn't help but shed tears.
"Fuck, why does it hurt so much? This is completely different from what I imagined!"
"I've never felt so much pain in my life, damn it!"
"My muscles are all wailing. How can I stand this?"
"I still feel a little dizzy, and my vision is black. I feel like I can't hold on any longer!"
Gongsun Yan walked forward while muttering to himself. With every step he took, he could feel the muscles in his legs trembling. The pain made him close his eyes tightly and squeeze out the tears in one breath.
Fortunately, a lot of sweat flowed down his face due to the intense pain, and his tears were mixed in the sweat, so it was not discovered by Xiaozhi or his Pokémon.
The tears mixed with sweat made his eyes sting continuously, making his vision blurry, and he began to feel a salty taste in his mouth.
Even though Gongsun Yan's whole body was resisting action, he still walked to his Pokémon with his tenacious willpower.
"I'm so stupid..."
"I can't stop crying because of the pain from the injury... I really am not cut out to be a hero..."
Gongsun Yan first muttered a few words in self-mockery. He had originally planned to play the role of a hero, but not only did he faint in the middle of his act of being cool, he was actually defeated by the pain. It turned out that wanting to be a hero was too stupid.
In his previous life, he had also fantasized about Ultraman and Kamen Rider on TV. Of course, it wasn’t that kind of fantasies, but there was a time when he was curious about the strange bulge under Ultraman’s crotch, whether it grew on the skin or was Ultraman wearing leather pants.
At that time, he was really curious about this, but after he grew up and learned more, his original curiosity began to shift.
He started worrying about the mysterious bulge under his crotch and started to wonder whether the actress under the suit of Mother of Ultraman was a female. If not, then his fantasies over the years were too heavy.
Ahem, that’s off topic. At that time, he often fantasized about becoming a hero to save the world, but when he grew up, he realized that heroes often don’t have a good ending.
So he buried his dream of being a hero with his own hands and shifted his interest to animations and games like Pokémon that were full of childlike fun.
What he did just now was simply the resurrection of his former heroic dream. The passion of adolescence just surged in his heart for a moment. Now he buried it again and stepped on it a few more times to prevent it from resurrecting again.
Pink healing waves kept flashing on Gongsun Yan's body. However, the effect of this healing move, which was mainly aimed at Pokémon, on Gongsun Yan was really unsatisfactory. However, it also relieved Gongsun Yan's body, which was close to its limit.
Gongsun Yan knelt on one knee on the ground, reached out and touched the fallen Sharp-Toothed Land Shark, a doting smile appeared on his face, and he began to praise him a few words.
"Well done. You have now gradually transformed from an ignorant child into a real warrior."
After hearing Gongsun Yan's praise, the breathing of the unconscious Land Shark became steady, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Gongsun Yan also put Land Shark back into the Poké Ball.
Just when Gongsun Yan had no time to stand up after retracting the Sharptooth Land Shark, Lucario, who had been lowering his head, knelt on one knee in front of Gongsun Yan without raising his head.
"......It's okay, I didn't think it through, you don't have to blame yourself." After a moment of silence, Gongsun Yan immediately understood what was going on with Lucario and began to comfort Lucario.
Lucario was blaming himself for being the most loyal Pokémon, but not being there to protect his master when he was injured, which made him feel extremely tortured in his heart and his sense of justice.
Even after hearing Gongsun Yan's words of forgiveness, he did not feel relieved at all, and his heart was still tormented by his own sense of justice.
"Oh~, why are there so many problem children here? They really make me worried!" Gongsun Yan complained in his heart, then he let go of his inner thoughts and tried to resonate with Lucario's waves.
This skill was available when he and Lucario first used the waveguide to connect their hearts, but this was indeed the first time it was used. After all, it was Lucario who took the initiative to use the waveguide to connect before, and this was the first time Gongsun Yan took the lead.
