Similar to how Shuti qualified to challenge Adek after winning the Future United Youth Cup.
Chi Hong, after winning this Carlos Youth Cup, will also battle against Kaluni.
In the eyes of most people, this kind of competition is just the local champion fulfilling a child's wish to compete with them.
However, when the competition actually began, everyone quickly realized that the situation was not right.
Facing Chi Hong's Charizard, Kaluni's Gardevoir was temporarily unable to defeat it, and was instead somewhat passive due to Chi Hong's tactics.
"I knew that kid would be extraordinary in the future!"
Mazhi Shi sent a message in the [Loving Each Other Alliance] group created by Dama Lanqi.
"Jet Flame!"
Before anyone else in the group could respond to Mazhi Shi, Chi Hong had already seized an opening exposed by Gardevoir, and shouted with rare excitement.
Su Sheng was a little surprised. Although he knew that Chi Hong's strength in his future complete form would definitely be far stronger than Kaluni's, he didn't expect that Charizard, having just evolved, could push a champion-level trainer to this extent.
It could only be said that he had a stroke of luck this time.
After all, in the original story, he had also defeated Sakaki once at the Silph Company.
However, at that time, Sakaki was busy retreating and probably wasn't using his full strength.
"No way!? Is Miss Kaluni going to lose!?"
Korni, the little yellow melon who was about the same age as Xiao Zhi, jumped up from her seat in the audience.
If their champion lost to a fledgling new trainer, where would the Carlos Alliance's face be in the future?
"Gardevoir! MEGA Evolution!"
At this moment, Kaluni didn't have time to think. Her right index fingertip touched the keystone pendant in the center of her collarbone.
Dazzling, five-colored rainbow light expanded outwards like a barrier, blocking the Jet Flame.
"Psychic!"
Before the light of evolution could dissipate, light purple psychic waves poured out from within.
Charizard, who had just completed its evolution half an hour ago, spread its wings, wanting to ascend into the sky to avoid the attack.
However, it was still a step too late. It was tightly enveloped by the psychic waves, as if being compressed by a pair of invisible hands, and then slammed heavily to the ground.
Boom!
After the heavy sound, Chi Hong's Charizard was unable to get up again.
On the opposite side, the five-colored rainbow light symbolizing MEGA evolution had also dissipated, and MEGA Gardevoir was displayed on the TV screens of thousands of households.
"Char, Charizard is unable to battle, Gardevoir wins."
The referee, who had regained his senses, announced the results of the battle.
In an instant, the Mi'alle Gymnasium erupted with earth-shattering cheers.
However, these cheers were not dedicated to the local champion as the victor, but to Chi Hong as the loser.
"This kid will definitely be amazing in the future!"
"Nonsense, he forced Miss Kaluni's MEGA evolution out. Is he really a newcomer trainer who just started his journey this year? Is a second Dan Di about to be born?"
"That Qinglu isn't simple either!"
"Reaching Dan Di's level is a bit difficult. He's a freak who became a champion in his first year of traveling!"
"Dan Di got lucky. If you check the information, you'll know that after Luozi became the chairman of the Galar Alliance, Pioni didn't want to be the champion anymore. When Dan Di challenged the champion, Pioni was 99% letting him win."
"Speaking of which, don't you guys think Champion Kaluni is a bit weak?"
"Honestly, I think even if Paji La came to fight, she wouldn't be forced to this point."
Kaluni took a shallow breath, signaling Gardevoir to return.
The Psychic Empress exited MEGA mode and returned to her normal state, turning into red light and actively entering the Poké Ball in Kaluni's bag.
"You're excellent, Chi Hong. Are you interested in developing in Carlos?"
Kaluni stepped forward and proactively extended her hand.
"Just lucky... I currently only want to challenge the Quartz Alliance."
Chi Hong adjusted his hat and responded in a low voice.
He himself admitted that this was a stroke of luck, and another fight might lead to different results.
However, Kaluni shook her head, indicating that Chi Hong didn't need to be modest.
No matter how lucky Chi Hong was, the fact that a champion like herself was forced to use MEGA evolution by a fledgling new trainer was already shameful enough.
It was comparable to the national football team being forced into a penalty shootout by a county-level team to win.
"Oh right, Huopa, I found your power."
In the VIP room, Ba'er Zhá remembered something and took out a strangely shaped pot with the same purple-gray color scheme as Little Huopa from his backpack.
"The Prison Bottle!"
Little Huopa exclaimed.
"What's this?"
Paji La next to him asked curiously.
"A hundred years ago, my and Meiya Li's great-grandfather…"
Ba'er Zhá quickly told Paji La the story of how his great-grandfather, Gu Lis, used the Prison Bottle to seal most of the power of the rampaging Huopa a hundred years ago.
"There was such a thing…"
Paji La looked incredulous.
During their past dates, she had also heard Ba'er Zhá talk about how powerful Huopa was a hundred years ago.
Paji La had been quite curious as to why this little thing had become like this in just a hundred years, when it used to be so strong.
So most of its power was sealed in this pot!
"Huopa, using this should allow you to return to your previous state."
Ba'er Zhá handed the Prison Bottle to Little Huopa.
Although he was currently acting as a simp, he did indeed treat Huopa as family.
That's why, after finding out about the existence of the Prison Bottle, he found it in the depths of the desert and brought it to Huopa.
Little Huopa looked at the Prison Bottle in front of him, which had the same color scheme as himself, and said after a long silence, "No need, Ba'er Zhá. Huopa thinks it's good the way it is now."
Recalling his experiences a hundred years ago, Huopa suddenly felt a little scared.
If he regained his previous power, then… would he still be himself?
He was very satisfied with his current life.
Meiya Li was by his side, and Su Sheng, Ba'er Zhá, and Sonia were all very nice to him. Usually, he even played games with Meng Huan and Zoroark.
He felt that he no longer needed such great power.
"This… okay."
Hearing this, Ba'er Zhá didn't force Huopa anymore.
"Next, let's invite the Alliance's strongest champion, Dr. Su Sheng, to present the award to Chi Hong, the final winner of the Carlos Youth Cup."
At this moment, the commentator passionately shouted.
Everyone in the room looked out the window.
They saw Su Sheng holding the trophy and walking towards Chi Hong. "Then Ba'er Zhá, I'm going to go play with everyone!"
Seeing Su Sheng hand the trophy to Chi Hong, exchange a few words of praise, and then prepare to return, Little Huopa was about to fly towards Su Sheng.
Before Little Huopa could fly half a meter, Paji La suddenly threw a Poké Ball.
The Fire Fox that appeared blocked Little Huopa's path, and the other party almost crashed into it with a sudden stop, and said in astonishment, "You, what are you doing?
"Paji La, what is this…"
Ba'er Zhá also looked at the other party in confusion.
However, when he met Paji La's pair of emotionless eyes, Ba'er Zhá's lower half of the sentence was immediately stuck in his throat.
At this moment, he felt that the other party was so strange.
No, it should be said that he had never understood the real her.
"The [Ring's Super Magic God] who can summon legends without limit, I learned this nickname after reading a lot of information."
Fu La Da Li had also called out his Flame Lion, waved his hand to signal, and the Flame Lion approached Ba'er Zhá, opening its mouth to reveal its sharp fangs.
"If you don't want anything to happen to him, then please use your ability to help us summon the Cocoon of Destruction. You've been following Su Sheng for so long,
You should know where that thing is."
"Chairman Fu La Da Li, you!?"
Ba'er Zhá only felt that his brain was not enough.
Not only was it the gentle and virtuous Paji La (Ba'er Zhá's perspective), but even the usually approachable Fu La Da Li was now so strange?
"Hurry up! Before that man comes back, give me the Cocoon of Destruction!"
Seeing that Su Sheng had already presented the award to Chi Hong and was walking towards them, Fu La Da Li became a little anxious.
"Roar!"
The Flame Lion also cooperated with its master, opening its mouth to tear a hole in Ba'er Zhá's arm.
"Ah!"
Ba'er Zhá cried out in pain, kneeling on one knee on the ground, covering the bloody wound on his right arm, panting heavily.
"Next time, it won't be so gentle."
At this moment, Fu La Da Li had completely卸下了伪装.
Today, we must realize Team Flare's grand plan!
The Flame Lion opened its jaw again, this time feeling like it was going to swallow Ba'er Zhá's entire arm.
The frightened Little Huopa finally regained his senses, and a tangled look appeared in his cute big eyes, gritting his teeth and shouting, "Sorry! A Sheng!"
The next second, Little Huopa took off the golden ring hanging on his right horn and threw it high.
At this moment, seeing that the award ceremony was over, the audience at the scene was leaving in an orderly manner under the command of the Alliance staff.
"? What is that?"
At this time, Korni, the little yellow melon who was watching the game with her grandfather, suddenly noticed something unusual.
It wasn't just Korni.
Sonia, Ruri Na, Qinglu, Xiao Mao… and more and more viewers.
All saw a golden ring suddenly appear next to Su Sheng.
"That's… Little Huopa's…"
Dianxi next to Sonia blinked her gem-like eyes.
"Where is A Sheng going… No, that's not right!"
Originally, Ruri Na thought that Su Sheng was going to use Huopa's ability to leave, but she immediately realized that something was wrong.
The next second after the golden ring appeared, Huopa's short hand suddenly stretched out from inside and grabbed a Poké Ball from Su Sheng's belt.
"What is that troublemaker doing!?"
Sonia's eyes widened in shock.
The tens of thousands of spectators who were preparing to leave also stopped.
They didn't know exactly what was happening, but they vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
"Hahahaha!"
At this time, Fu La Da Li's rampant laughter came from the VIP platform.
"C, Chairman?"
Kaluni was also dumbfounded. What's going on?
On the stage, Fu La Da Li was laughing wildly while holding a Poké Ball containing the Cocoon of Destruction.
Finally, finally got it!
The two keys to opening the ultimate weapon are now in my hands!
"T, the thing is given to you, can you let Ba'er Zhá go?"
Huopa asked cautiously.
So far, she has been completely protected in an ivory tower by Meiya Li and Su Sheng. She has almost seen the sinister nature of people for the first time and has been frightened.
"I still need you to do one more thing for us."
Fu La Da Li sneered:
"Leave here with us, after all, I don't want Su Sheng to use your ability to catch up."
Although both keys have been obtained, Huopa, Fu La Da Li must take away, at least not let her stay by Su Sheng's side.
Otherwise, Su Sheng can immediately use her ability to catch up.
"Th, this is not possible!"
Little Huopa said anxiously.
"Hmm? Are you not concerned about this kid's life or death?"
Fu La Da Li pointed at Ba'er Zhá, who was covered in cold sweat, and threatened with narrowed eyes.
"N, no, Hu, Huopa can't pass through his own rings."
Huopa waved his hand and explained.
"What!?"
Fu La Da Li and Paji La's faces changed drastically.
"That's right, none of you can go anywhere, you can only die here."
Su Sheng's voice suddenly sounded.
Fu La Da Li and others turned their heads sharply and saw Su Sheng sitting on the back of MEGA Qing Mian Niao, looking at them with a faint smile.
Fu La Da Li's heart skipped a beat, and he shouted sternly: "Team Rocket! It's your turn to take action!"
Team Rocket!?
Hearing Fu La Da Li shouting these three words, tens of thousands of spectators at the scene and countless people in front of the TV changed their expressions drastically.
Even the champions and kings of various regions are no exception.
After the Quartz Plateau War, Team Rocket's fierce reputation can stop children from crying at night.
But it's not enough to shock Xi Luo Na, Adek and others in front of the TV to this extent.
The reason why they showed such expressions was because these words were spoken from Fu La Da Li, who was the chairman of the Carlos Alliance.
How could this sentence not sound like something a decent person would say?
"Daikawa! Water Cannon!"
"Hellgar! Jet Flame!"
Two figures lurking in the audience released their respective Pokémon.
Two completely opposite long-range artillery fires of water and fire started at 0 frames and rushed towards the diagonally opposite VIP stand.
"A Sheng!"
Ru Li Na, Sonia and others shouted worriedly,
However, Xi Luo Na in front of the TV was very calm about this.
The next second, as Sister Zhulan expected.
The water cannon and jet flame almost brushed past Su Sheng's left and right shoulders.
The real target is Fu La Da Li!
"Fire Fox!"
Paji La's pupils suddenly shrank, and she decisively said.
The Fire Fox waved the "magic wand" in its right hand, instantly creating a protective barrier to block the two shots of completely opposite energy.
Fu La Da Li's face became even darker, and he looked at the two conspicuous figures in the audience opposite.
"What do you mean!?"
"Oh, oh, nothing."
Yi Shu, wearing a mask, stood up in the shocked eyes of the surrounding ordinary people, and spread his hands and laughed strangely:
"It's just that Joker said that it's more appropriate to kill you than Su Sheng."
Fu La Da Li said coldly: "Does he value his brother more than Huopa?"
He was not surprised by this situation, after all, that little fat man had already released murderous intent towards him yesterday.
"That's not the case, it's just that Joker can't stand you more than Su Sheng."
Li Hua said the lines she had rehearsed last night, "After killing you, I'll deal with him again."
As she spoke, Lihua pointed at Lysandre, then at Su Sheng.
"This, what exactly is going on? I, I'm so confused—"
Sonia scratched her head, feeling like her brain was about to explode.
Rurina narrowed her beautiful eyes, "That Lysandre wants to harm A Sheng and teamed up with Team Rocket, but Team Rocket decided to take out Lysandre first, is that the gist of it?"
Although she didn't know that Su Sheng and Joker were the same person, as a member of the family group created by Su Sheng, Rurina also knew that Lysandre, the chairman of the Kalos League, was actually the leader of a criminal organization called "Team Flare."
After the conversation between the two sides just now, she also guessed about 70% or 80% of the cause and effect of the whole matter.
Hearing Rurina's words, Diantha still looked shocked.
No, no, the question is, why does Lysandre want to harm Su Sheng?
"Blastoise! Swampert!"
Rurina directly sent out her two great generals.
If anyone dares to touch A Sheng, I will fight them to the death!
"A Sheng, I, I didn't mean to, sob sob~"
Hoopa dropped small pearls of tears, feeling wronged.
"It's okay, don't take it to heart."
Su Sheng jumped onto the stand, smiling and waving his hand, "Come back first."
Little Hoopa nodded, wanting to fly over and jump into Su Sheng's arms,
However, Delphox once again blocked Hoopa's path.
Pachira was very clear that she must not let Hoopa return to Su Sheng's side. This little guy doesn't have much power himself, but he is absolutely invincible when it comes to support!
"Miss Pachira, what do you want to do?"
The smile on Su Sheng's face became even more exaggerated, but this time it was no longer the gentleness he had towards Hoopa just now, but a teasing and even—a murderous intent.
Bang~
A Poké Ball on Su Sheng's waist opened on its own.
Tapu Koko appeared behind Su Sheng like a Platinum Star.
As the real main force in Pachira's team, and ranked even above Houndoom, Delphox didn't even have the courage to look at Tapu Koko, and retreated in fear.
"Team Rocket is unreliable, I expected this long ago, and the facts prove that my judgment is correct."
Lysandre suddenly spoke.
"~Is that so, so what?"
Su Sheng's smile gradually became unbearable.
He admitted that Lysandre, as the leader of a large criminal organization, and also an undercover agent in the alliance who became the chairman,
He still had some brains.
But the problem is, what if your strength can't keep up with your brain?
In the next second, the sound of helicopter propellers whirring came from the sky above the arena.
On the fuselage, was the logo of Lysandre Labs!
In the next second, the hatch at the bottom of a large transport plane opened, and a huge box was dropped from the high altitude, and with a "bang!" it slammed heavily on the ground.
"That is—
Sonia, Rurina, Red and others around the audience stand squinted their eyes and looked at the large box.
Through the translucent box body, they could vaguely see small insect-like Pokémon that resembled plankton being controlled inside by restraints.
"That is!?"
Diantha, Drasna and others who had personally experienced the Yveltal incident last year changed their faces drastically.
They recognized it, that was Zygarde, the Order Pokémon who had engaged in a fierce battle with Yveltal in Aspertia City before!
But at this moment, the Order Pokémon's expression was extremely painful.
[Damn it————·Damn it————·Damn humans!]
At this moment, an angry shota voice echoed in the minds of everyone present.
This voice...——.It's Zygarde!
"Do it."
Lysandre said in a low voice.
Inside the transport plane above, Team Flare's chief scientist Xerosic pressed a button on the console in front of him.
Instantly, the blue core in front of Zygarde, who was in cellular form in the box, lit up with an ominous light.
And its expression became even more painful and even distorted.
Pain! It hurts so much!
[Humans! Should be wiped out!!!]
The childish voice contained an explosive anger, making everyone present who heard this inner voice feel very uneasy.
