In the southeastern plains of Armor Island, inside the Master Dojo.
As Mustard led Su Sheng and the others into the dojo, a group of young boys and girls, all under the age of fifteen and dressed in kung fu attire, shouted in unison:
"Hello, Master and Mistress!"
"Mm-hmm~ Hard work with the training, this old man is back~"
Mustard waved in response.

Rose introduced Su Sheng, "After retiring, Mr. Mustard established this dojo on Armor Island and widely accepted disciples. It can be said that all the young Gym Leaders currently in the Galar League have, to varying degrees, received guidance from Mr. Mustard."
(Referencing the game's setting where Galar League Gym Leaders come to Armor Island to train)
Hearing Rose's words, Su Sheng raised his eyes to look at the group of kids in yellow kung fu outfits and immediately spotted a few familiar figures—
A dumpling-head girl with silver hair and dark skin, around 10 years old, similar in age to Iono, with a tomboyish demeanor but with very cute features upon closer inspection.
A chubby little boy with a protruding belly, much rounder than his peers, but upon closer inspection, one would notice that his appearance isn't bad, and his parents should be quite attractive.
Noticing Su Sheng's gaze, Rose immediately introduced them:
"Dr. Su Sheng has a good eye. These two are the second-string Gym Leaders of our Galar League, Bea from Stow-on-Side and Gordie from Circhester."
While Rose introduced them, Bea and Gordie were also secretly observing Su Sheng.
Bea thought to herself, "The genius scientist who invented the Technical Machine and the Pokédex? But even if the Technical Machine can greatly reduce training time, to fully unleash the power of Pokémon, you still need constant training."
Compared to Bea, who single-mindedly pursues power, Gordie has more on his mind.
As an internet addict, he's seen a lot of the rumors about his mom and Su Sheng.
"Is this my new dad… Did the old woman eat so well while I was gone?"
Gordie muttered to himself.
That's right, he is Melony's son.
It's just that since childhood, he has loved Rock-type Pokémon, but his mother, Melony, was determined to train him into an Ice-type Trainer like herself.
The conflict between the mother and son grew, eventually ending in a big fight some time ago, with Gordie running away from home.
Later, he turned to Mustard's dojo, and Gordie was dumbfounded when he saw the rumors about his mom and Su Sheng.
Your son has run away from home, and you still have the mind to nibble on young meat?
At this moment, Mustard's wife, Honey, came out of the kitchen with dishes and shouted:
"Time for dinner, everyone come and lend a hand~"
"Coming, Mistress Honey."
Bea quickly stepped forward.
……
……
"Mr. Mustard, are you and Miss Honey really married?"
While everyone was sitting at the large dining table enjoying dinner, Iono, with a bit of sauce on her lips, asked Mustard innocently.
Mustard didn't mind the question and said with a chuckle and a hint of pride:
"Yes, we are a twilight romance with a 30-year age gap. When I retired from the Champion position and went on a journey, we fell in love at first sight…"
Hearing Mustard's endless recounting of their love story, Honey rolled her eyes and was about to say something.
Suddenly, the sound of an infant crying came from the back room of the dojo.
"Oh dear, Hyde is awake, I'll go change his diaper."
Honey quickly got up and went to the back room.
Leon explained, "Hyde is the child of Master and Mistress, and he's almost one year old."
There's a child!?!
Rika, Iono, Lorelei and other out-of-towners had even stranger expressions.
Looking at Mustard's wrinkled face with white beard and eyebrows.
Still going strong even in old age…
During the chat, Mustard told Su Sheng what those two towers were for.
The two towers are called "Tower of Darkness" and "Tower of Waters", which he originally built for his two Kubfu to train.
Back then, he took his two Kubfu to train in those two towers, allowing them to evolve smoothly.
After that, they haven't been used for a long time.
"It's these two, ruru~"
Mustard reached into his pocket and lightly tossed out two Poké Balls.
Two burly and sturdy black Pokémon landed at the same time.
Over two meters tall, with strong bodies resembling bodybuilders, and flowing tips of hair like headbands.
Urshifu!
"No matter how many times I see them, they're so cool, Master's Urshifu."
"So majestic!"
"It's a pity that Master has retired, otherwise I really wanted to see his peak duel with Champion Leon…"
Seeing the two Urshifu, the students at the table were buzzing with excitement, their eyes filled with fervent admiration to varying degrees.
Even Gordie, a trainer specializing in Rock-type, couldn't help but reveal a longing expression, not to mention Bea, the Fighting-type girl.
"Woosh~"
The two Urshifu, who had just landed, looked towards a group of Pokémon eating in the corner of the dojo.
Their eyes accurately locked onto the Bewear holding a spoon, feeding the Swablu and Galarian Articuno one bite at a time.
They sensed the aura of a strong person!
"Don't~"
The Bewear, with one hand pinching the Galarian Articuno's neck and the other hand holding a spoon, kept stuffing rice into its beak, sensed the gaze behind it.
Squinting, it glanced back at the two Urshifu.
The Three Bears Stand Tall!
"Calm down, calm down, calm down!"
"Bewear, they're not hostile!"
Having witnessed the battle just now, and also being very aware of the strength of Mustard's two Urshifu, Leon and the others quickly tried to dissuade them.
If these three were to fight… it's a certainty that the dojo wouldn't be able to be saved, and if it's a fierce fight, half the island would be blown away.
Bewear withdrew its gaze and continued to feed the injured Galarian Articuno.
One could vaguely see small pearls flowing from the pair of light blue eyes under its mask, as if saying, "Grandma, I really can't eat anymore."
……
"Little Sheng Sheng, can you tell this old man about the moves that Bewear used in the battle just now?"
After talking about the Urshifu, Mustard couldn't help but ask about what he cared about the most.
Back then, he retired from his Galar Champion position and traveled the world to see different fighting styles.
However, he never expected that at the age where he's about to be buried in the ground, he could still see such a strange fighting style.
"Oh right, Little Iono, didn't you film the battle just now? Put it on for us to see, so that this old man's disciples can learn a thing or two."
Mustard remembered something else and called out to Iono.
For people he likes, Mustard will give them the nickname "Little XX".
"Oh oh~"
Hearing this, Iono took out her newly bought DV and connected it to the dojo's TV.
Soon, the video played.
When they saw Bewear in the high sky, using a repelling punch to transfer its position in the air, and its body as light as a feather, avoiding the Galarian Articuno's Psychic attack.
All of Mustard's young disciples widened their eyes in shock.
Not to mention them, even experts like Lorelei and Leon, who had already seen it once.
Deep shock was revealed in their eyes.
"Little Sheng Sheng, what are these two moves?"
Mustard asked, pointing at the paused screen.
Su Sheng could be said to have experienced Iono's feelings when she heard the nickname "Psychic Little Fatty".
After speechless complaints, he explained, "This is called Sea… Fighting Six Styles, a new ultimate move I discovered."
Su Sheng, who was about to say "Navy Six Styles", suddenly remembered that there was no navy in the Pokémon world, so he temporarily changed its name.
"These two moves are 'Moon Walk' and 'Paper Art' from the Fighting Six Styles, which are respectively able to use strong leg strength to step on the air, creating a strong lingering effect in the air, and relaxing your mind and body, making your body as light as paper, dodging through the airflow generated by the opponent's attack."
"But Dr. Su Sheng, Bewear used its hands in the video."
Bea raised her hand and asked.
That's right, in the video, Bewear avoided the Galarian Articuno's first attack.
It used its hands to create energy and move its body.
Su Sheng explained, "As long as you can create enough energy to linger in the air, you can use any part of your body, but because most people… and the strongest part of a Pokémon's body is their feet, using their feet can unleash greater power, so those proficient in Moon Walk basically use their feet to perform Moon Walk, but my Bewear doesn't have this concern, it can release powerful power from its whole body."
"Six Styles? That means there are four more moves? Little Sheng Sheng, I wonder what the remaining four styles are ruru~"
Mustard asked curiously.
"Actually, for Champion-level Pokémon, only Moon Walk among the Six Styles has high practicality. The remaining five styles are just superfluous. Originally, I thought it would be enough for Bewear to only learn Moon Walk, but Bewear's learning ability is too strong, it learned all six styles at once, there's nothing I can do."
It can be seen from the fact that basically no one uses the Six Styles in the later stages of the One Piece world.
In Su Sheng's view, the Six Styles are already outdated, just like Paper Art and Iron Body, I have Observation Haki to predict and Armament Haki to defend, why do I need your useless moves?
The same is true for Pokémon.
Shave can be completely replaced by "Quick Attack", and even "Extreme Speed" and "Teleport" are faster than you.
There's no need to even talk about attack skills like Tempest Kick and Finger Pistol, my Flare Blitz and Mega Punch are more powerful after practicing them well.
There's no need to practice this at all.
This is also why Sanji only practiced Moon Walk of the Six Styles, because this move can help him stay in the air.
As for Tempest Kick and the like, my Diable Jambe is more powerful.
The reason why Bewear knows all the Six Styles is because it has a strong learning ability.
At first, Su Sheng only casually said the principle twice, and it understood 80% of it.
When Bewear comprehends the three colors of Haki, it can even throw away "Paper Art" and directly foresee the future.
Everyone in the dojo was silent, what does "learning ability is too strong, there's nothing I can do" mean?
Is this flexing too much?
Although Su Sheng said that the other five styles except "Moon Walk" of the Six Styles are useless moves.
But Mustard, as the strongest Fighting-type Trainer of this era, couldn't help but be curious.
After dinner, at Mustard's enthusiastic invitation, Su Sheng took Bewear to the training ground in the backyard of the dojo and demonstrated all the Six Styles.
And a group of spectators, including Leon and Bea, stood on the sidelines as spectators.
In addition to "Moon Walk" and "Paper Art" used in the battle against Galarian Articuno just now, Su Sheng had Bewear show Shave, Iron Body, Tempest Kick and Finger Pistol one by one.
"So amazing, these are all Fighting skills I've never seen before."
Bea opened her small mouth into an "o".
Mustard stroked his chin, pondered for a long time after watching, and said, "Indeed, as Little Sheng Sheng said, Moon Walk is the most practical of these six moves, but this old man thinks that the practicality of Paper Art is still very high, why do you think this is a useless move?"
Relaxing the whole body and mind, allowing the body to follow the movement of the enemy's attack airflow, so as to achieve the purpose of avoiding attacks.
In Mustard's view, practicality can be said to be above "Detect".
But Su Sheng defined this move as a "useless move", which is difficult for Mustard to understand.
"Because there are stronger moves that can replace it, it's like a Fire-type Pokémon learned Flamethrower, there's no need to learn Ember, right?"
Su Sheng gave a simple and clear explanation.
"How is that possible?!"
Nessa shouted embarrassedly from the sidelines.
Although she is a Trainer proficient in Water-type, she also knows that "Detect" is an advanced Fighting-type skill that can avoid most of the opponent's ultimate moves.
And Paper Art is even better.
But Su Sheng said that he already has a better alternative to Paper Art, this, how is this possible?
"Gym Leader Nessa, geniuses always surpass the imagination of ordinary people."
Rose seemed much calmer.
Hasn't Su Sheng come up with things that transcend common sense?
Nessa opened her mouth slightly, speechless for a moment.
Indeed, compared to Su Sheng, Leon and other monsters.
She is really just an "ordinary person".
"Oh? Then just now…"
Mustard immediately became interested.
"There's no need for Bewear to use its full strength to deal with opponents like Articuno."
Su Sheng's words left everyone present dumbfounded, recalling Bewear's performance in the video just now.
You call that "no need to use full strength"!?
Galarian Articuno, who was following behind Iono with a huge bandage wrapped around one wing, was 麻了.
I'm already like this, and you're telling me you didn't use your full strength!?
Leon stroked the small beard on his chin, recalling the details of the battle.
Damn, it seems that's really the case.
During the battle, Bewear's last Mega Punch only hit the air, breaking Galarian Articuno's Hurricane + Psychic combination.
If it hit the opponent's body, who knows what would happen.
Leon could think of this detail, and Mustard naturally didn't need to mention it.
"Could it be… the last punch Bewear threw before?!"
At that time, Mustard vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Su Sheng nodded, thought for a while and then said, "It's not clear enough to explain with words, let's show it to everyone in practice."
"Who wants to try?"
Su Sheng turned around and asked everyone, as if teaching on the spot.
Everyone looked at each other, and Iono and Bea, who had a good relationship with Su Sheng, were eager to try.
Rose opened his mouth and said, "Nessa, you go."
Nessa was stunned for a moment, but saw Rose already looking at her, "Go."
Seeing Rose's behavior, Chairman Rose secretly spat in his heart.
This guy Rose is really不死心.
Chairman Rose thought that if he had the opportunity next time, he would definitely let Lorelei go.
Under their president's knowing look, Rurina pursed her lips and stepped into the arena, somewhat nervously saying to Su Sheng, "Dr. Su Sheng, please, please guide me."
"It's nothing, just relax, Miss Rurina."
Su Sheng comforted her, "Just send out one of your Pokémon."
Rurina nodded and lightly tossed a red and white Poké Ball.
Appearing was a Golisopod from the Alola region.
Have to say, this big bug is quite handsome.
"Master Ma, what I'm about to demonstrate to you is called 'Haki'. It's not limited to Fighting-types, or even Pokémon. It's a latent power that all life possesses, just like Aura."
"It's just that most humans and Pokémon aren't aware of this power, so naturally, they can't awaken it. They may spend their entire lives without being able to unleash it."
As Su Sheng explained, he had Bewear turn around, facing away from Rurina's Golisopod.
"Come, Miss Rurina, let your Golisopod attack Bewear and see what happens."
Rurina was shocked, looking at Bewear, who was completely facing away from Golisopod. "But, but..."
Su Sheng gave Rurina a reassuring look, "It's okay, attack."
Rose also said, "Attack, Rurina. With your Pokémon's abilities, it's impossible to do any real damage to Dr. Su Sheng's Bewear."
As soon as Rose said this, even Ituki, Nanjamo, and Damaracchi from out of town looked at Rose in disbelief.
Good heavens, is he really showing no respect for his own Gym Leader?
Hearing Rose's words, Rurina bit her pink lip and waved her hand, shouting, "Golisopod, Liquidation!"
Golisopod opened its left claw, condensing a blade of water and slashing at Bewear from behind.
Su Sheng explained from the side, "Haki's main function is twofold. One is to sense the 'flow' of the opponent's aura. For example, without looking, Bewear knows that Golisopod is about to attack the right side of its head."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bewear slightly moved its head to the left.
Golisopod's water blade almost grazed Bewear's ear, making everyone watching nervous.
Mustard's eyes also narrowed slightly as he watched. "Hoh~ I see, so this is a defensive technique stronger than Paper Cut."
"Continue."
Su Sheng hooked his finger at Golisopod.
Seeing this, Golisopod held the water blade with both hands, making a pose like cutting something in half with a Ruyi Jingu Bang, and continued to chop.
"Bewear, show them..."
Before Su Sheng could finish speaking, Bewear raised its right hand and directly pinched off Golisopod's water blade. Golisopod couldn't stop in time and crashed directly into Bewear's fist.
It fainted on the spot.
The atmosphere was momentarily awkward.
Su Sheng blinked and looked at Bewear.
Bewear also spread its hands, looking innocent.
It's not my fault, it brought its face to my fist on its own.
And who knew this guy was so weak, it just knelt?
"Is it too fragile?"
Even Ituki, who understood how terrifying Bewear was, couldn't help but complain.
Rurina's little toes inside her high heels were embarrassingly digging out a three-bedroom apartment.
This scene was like Son Goku, who could transform into a Super Saiyan, thinking of patting Chi-Chi to ease the awkwardness, but unexpectedly sending his wife flying.
"Kona, you go, you go!"
Damaracchi hurriedly pushed his Elite Four member forward, while also couldn't help but mock Rose, "Rose, my friend, your Gym Leader's strength needs improvement."
Rose's face was as black as an iron pot.
He wanted to take this opportunity to let Rurina get closer to Su Sheng.
He didn't expect such a blunder.
Although Rose mainly chose Rurina as the Gym Leader because of her face, but you're too fragile, aren't you?
"Sheng, is it okay to let this child go?"
Kona released a new Pokémon.
It was a Beartic, an Ice-type Pokémon from the Unova region.
There are quite a few bears today.
Seeing Su Sheng nod, Kona waved her right hand lightly.
Beartic roared, raising its right arm into a hand knife shape, with a faint pink light shining on the palm, and chopped towards Bewear.
A hint of surprise flashed in Su Sheng's eyes.
It actually knows 'Play Rough'?
It was as if the previous scene was being replayed.
Facing the Play Rough move that countered it, Bewear swung its right arm upwards.
Boom!
The exaggerated impact sound made the surrounding wild Pokémon tremble and almost fall.
And in the battle arena of the dojo.
The attacking Beartic fell head over heels instead.
"Just now, did Bewear's hand turn black?"
Chrito rubbed her eyes.
Su Sheng explained, "Different from Observation Haki, Armament Haki is like putting on invisible armor on the body. The strong armor can be used as a means of defense, and naturally it can also be converted into attack."
"Wooo~"
Kona's Beartic rubbed its numb arm and got up.
And Su Sheng in front continued:
"Most people can only learn Armament and Observation Haki, but there are also very few people who can master the third type of Haki, which is..."
Speaking of this, Bewear slowly turned its head and glanced at the Beartic that had just climbed up behind it.
The moment their eyes met, Beartic's pair of bear eyes suddenly widened.
Immediately afterwards, everyone present only felt an extremely domineering aura, like Mount Tai pressing down.
In the next instant, Beartic's breathing stagnated.
Its dark pupils turned white for a moment, and it just got up, then "plop" fell down again.
And those who fell were not just Beartic.
Nanjamo, Rurina, Chrito, Mallow, and a group of disciples from Master Mustard's dojo...
All the rookies on the scene rolled their eyes and fell to the ground.
