Chapter 528: Cobblestone Badge, Your Name!
The game begins.
Ajin yelled, "Explosion Taro, Smokescreen!"
In an instant, thick black smoke gushed out from the back of the Fire Beast, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
"Ahem, who is cheating like this?"
“I can’t see anything…”
"Fuck! Why is this big milk tank rolling?"
As soon as the game started, two teams were divided. Xiao Qian collided with the main team at the back.
Such a series of collisions is common in cycling events, but this time, Jin and Xiaoqian each took half the blame.
Finally someone thought of using "Clear the Fog", but half a minute had already passed, which was enough time to create a long distance.
The commentator shouted: "We can see that the leading athlete, Ajin, is far ahead of the others!"
Jin was riding on Exploding Taro's back and looking back, he was stunned: "Teacher Lu, how come you are so fast?"
"It's okay, I'll just take a walk."
Lu Ye wore large sunglasses and rode on the back of the wind dog, following behind him at a leisurely pace. The wind dog had just used the explosive power of "super speed" to break through the smoke screen in an instant, without being affected at all.
"This..." Ajin looked to the left again and suddenly widened his eyes.
"Wow, Kentaro, lightning!" Xiaozhi closed his eyes tightly and rode Kentaro recklessly, "Hold on to the swimming area, then we can see clearly!"
"Roar!" A sharp white light burst out from Kentaro's body, surpassing Arcanine and Infernape in succession and taking the lead! "Oh my god, Xiaozhi actually came from behind and started to take the lead!" said the commentator.
Lu Ye & A Jin: "..."
This Kentaro is worthy of being the leader of the tribe, and under the careful care of Professor Oak, it has burst out with amazing speed.
Xiaozhi arrived at the swimming area first, took back Kentaro, and dived into the water to clean his eyes.
Lu Ye and A Jin arrived at the swimming section almost at the same time.
However, with the help of the "relay" tactic, Jin was able to collect the ball faster. He sent in Taro the Giant Wing and used the pool cue as the frame of the glider, gliding close to the water surface. He instantly surpassed Xiaozhi.
"Contestant Ajin is in the lead again!"
The commentator said, "Wait a minute. The Pokémon that Xiaozhi sent out during the swimming stage was actually Pikachu!?"
Under the astonished gaze of tens of thousands of spectators, Xiaozhi took off his shirt and rode a surfboard. Pikachu stood at the front of the surfboard, his posture was both cute and skillful.
Surfing Pikachu appears! Lu Ye looks weird: "This isn't swimming at all... There are gliders and surfboards!"
"In that case." Lu Ye leaned down and stuck to the back of Blastoise, "Turtle, push back, use the minimum power water gun. Remember, it's a water gun!"
"Ka-me...ヾ(■_■)"
Blastoise gave him a look that said 'don't worry'.
Immediately, a turbulent stream of water gushed out of the barrel, creating a white wave on the water surface. Lu Ye rode on the back of the water turtle, and his ears were filled with splashing water and thunderous roars.
"Wow, this is quite exciting!" Lu Ye's eyes lit up.
The wave hit Xiaozhi and Jin. Xiaozhi couldn't dodge in time and his surfboard was immediately overturned.
Ah Jin reluctantly avoided it and said seriously:
"Giant Wing Taro, hold on, we can win!"
The giant flying fish created a whirlpool on the water surface, as if trying to slow down the Blastoise's movements.
But the Blastoise broke through the water in an instant and rushed to the next stage!
"Michino, who was originally ranked third, has overtaken the first place! Can he maintain his lead in the final stage?"
The commentator said, "Let's take a look at the second tier. Uh... it seems that they are still under the influence of the pileup. It seems that contestant Xiao Qian is going to withdraw from the competition."
"Go, Otaro!" At the last moment, Ajin used a pool cue to hit the Poké Ball into the tree on the shore, and then jumped up.
The figure of the Twin-Tailed Monster Hand appeared in the Poké Ball, it stretched out its tail and grabbed Ajin! With this, Ajin overtook the gap between him and Mr. Lu in one fell swoop and started to sprint in the final stage of the race! "In the final stage, the trainer can only rely on his physical fitness to run the race."
The commentator said: "This is a display of the trainer's physique, and it is also the charm of Pokémon sports! Let's see, Lu Ye and A Jin, who will win the gold medal in this tournament!"
At this moment, on the shore of the swimming stage, Xiaozhi picked up the wet Pikachu.
"Is everything ok, Pikachu?"
"Pikapi..."
"I understand." Xiaozhi's eyes flickered and he nodded vigorously, "I will definitely get this gold medal!"
Lu Ye was running at a leisurely pace.
Ajin, who was right in front of him, was also in good physical condition and showed amazing fighting spirit.
Lu Ye thought for a moment, and used the power of wave to buff himself again, and then surpassed Ajin.
Ah Jin's eyes widened: "F-F-F-, Teacher Lu, are you cheating?"
Lu Ye was about to answer when he was suddenly stunned.
The commentator shouted at the top of his lungs: "It's Xiaozhi, the Xiaozhi from Pallet Town, catching up from behind!!"
Lu Ye & A Jin: "..."
As if surging with Super Saiyan-like blue light, Xiaozhi roared and waved his limbs, surpassing himself and Ajin one after another.
Almost leaving an afterimage, Xiaozhi was the first to cross the finish line and pulled the red line down!
Lu Ye & A Jin: "..."
Audience: “ohhhhhh!!”
Xiba, who was watching from the sidelines, was sweating profusely: "Is this guy... a monster?"
Taking advantage of Ajin's distraction, Teacher Lu cleverly crossed the finish line second and won the silver medal.
Ah Jin: “…”
Please be a human being, Teacher Lu!
…
The racing event came to an end, and Xiaozhi won the gold medal as a dark horse.
After having a quick dinner, he hurried to the next venue to compete in the strength event.
Lu Ye treated Miaomiao and the others to dinner, and the trio was so moved that they burst into tears. They almost took away Miaomiao's gold coins and gave them to Teacher Lu.
"What is the content of the strength event?" Lu Ye asked vaguely while chewing pasta.
"Chopping tiles!" Kojiro replied.
"Isn't that the name of a move?" Lu Ye was stunned.
"It's to count the number of broken tiles." Meow Meow said, "It's said that it's made of special material. The highest record is only 13 tiles, meow!"
Lu Ye nodded thoughtfully.
Splitting tiles...this Duck should be good at it.
After all, Scallion is the essence of the Pokémon and part of DuckDuck's power!
That night, in the bustling venue, the strength competition officially kicked off.
The fighting king Xiba served as the judge. Lu Ye and Ali competed on the same stage. In addition, there were also contestants such as Xiaozhi and Ajin who registered for all events.
Ah Li was only wearing a thin vest. Before the game started, Lu Ye heard her muttering something.
After a moment, Teacher Lu suddenly realized.
Ah Li is saying: "I'm so hungry, so hungry..."
"You didn't have dinner?" Lu Ye asked.
"I ate a tree fruit." Ali sniffed.
Logically speaking, a gym leader shouldn't be so poor...
Lu Ye: "Now that you have the gold medal, you are not going to sell it for money, are you?"
Ah Li: “…”
I guessed it right! "Actually, it also involves exercising willpower." Li scratched his cheek and smiled, "I can save money and buy delicious food for Pokémon!"
In an instant, Teacher Lu's eyes were blurred with tears.
In Ah Li, he saw himself who was heavily in debt and bought resources for the little guys...
"I understand!" Lu Ye nodded vigorously.
"Really?" Ah Li's eyes were filled with surprise, and he immediately scratched his head and smiled, "By the way, Mr. Lu, last time I didn't have time to give the badge away..."
beep--
The door to the contestant's passage opened, and the faint light gradually poured in. The cheers gradually became real, and eventually turned into a tsunami.
"Come on, Teacher Lu!"
“Ajin will definitely be able to set a new record this year.”
"Shit, did you guys watch that match this morning? I think it's more reliable for Xiaozhi to go there himself than to send a Pokémon!"
Stacks of tiles made of special materials are placed in front of each contestant.
Heavyweight Pokémon such as Nidoking, Rhyno, and Snorlax are standing ready in front of the players.
Ali sent Lucario to play. He scored 8, 9, and 8 bricks in three attempts, which was a good performance.
Xiaozhi sent out Snorlax, who smashed 11 tiles in the first round. However, in the next two rounds, probably because he was hungry, his performance was mediocre.
"Contestant Ajin is here!"
The cheers on the field rose again, and the commentator said: "He sent in the nonsense tree... It was a bodybuilding imitation of the strange power just now! Broken rocks fell!"
"12! A score close to the historical record. He is indeed a rare Grand Slam player in history!"
Ah Jin blew his bangs, put the pool cue on his shoulder, grinned, and high-fived Hu Shuoshu.
The scoreboard showed the rankings of the players, with Ah Jin currently in first place.
Sitting in the audience, Shiba couldn't help but think of the scene when he participated in the all-around competition.
Xiba crossed his muscular arms and murmured, "Just like before..."
He looked at the black-haired boy with the pool cue on his shoulder and whispered, "This vision may be related to Arceus again...Ajin."
"The finale to appear is the much-anticipated contestant Lu Ye!"
The narrator said: "He sent out... the Galar knight, the Onion Ranger!"
"Huh?" Cong Youbing looked at the thick stack of tiles in front of him and looked at Lu Ye curiously.
“You can just chop it with a green onion.” Lu Ye said with a smile, “Just like practicing chopping [metal film] at home.”
YaYa was slightly startled, scratched his head, and slowly walked forward with sword and shield in hand.
The powerful aura made the audience hold their breath.
This sharp-eyed green onion soldier might... really be able to set a record! "Ka!" The green onion soldier raised the green onion high and swung it down with all his might.
Crack! Everyone was stunned.
"Four?"
"That's it?"
"Hahaha, this isn't going to turn over!"
The referee held the whistle in his mouth and said, "Second round, start!"
Cong Youbing turned back hesitantly and glanced at Teacher Lu behind him.
"Don't be nervous." Lu Ye said, "Winning or losing doesn't matter, we're just here to have fun. Let's try the move 'Breaking Tiles' this time."
"Ga!" Cong Youbing nodded vigorously.
In a trance, it seemed to transform into an invincible Galar Knight, holding up a sharp sword, with a sharp white light blooming on the green blade.
The tiles fell down with a crackling sound! "Nine pieces, still not enough..."
"This is already an exceptional performance, right?"
"That's enough. Nine is already a good level."
Just as everyone spontaneously applauded.
Xiba, who was sitting on the judges' panel, suddenly opened his eyes wide.
He felt a completely different aura, which was like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath, striking directly at the vital point! "Gah!" A sharp red light leaped from the Cong Youbing's body, and there seemed to be a dark red aura swirling around him.
The green blade became sharper and emitted a cold metallic glow.
It's just a tile. Cong Youbing's eyes narrowed.
Even if there is steel in front of me, I will cut it in half!
"This is Cong Youbing's Qi-gathering move!" the commentator said, "Contender Lu Ye used a variation of this move in the third round!"
Considering that he could only use the transformation move once, Lu Ye gave up the idea of continuing to strengthen it.
Lu Ye said: "Leaf Blade!"
"Gah! °Yi°"
In an instant, a cold light flashed! The sharp sword force seemed to be concentrated at one point, and it suddenly swung down from top to bottom! Xiba's eyes changed slightly.
Concentrating power on one point can greatly increase destructive power...and this was also the strategy that helped Ajin win the championship.
Even... the leaf blade just now had a direct and critical hit! Crack! !
Almost the entire venue trembled.
"Fifteen..." The commentator was stunned for a moment, then shouted, "A new record has been created! This year's all-around competition has set a new record for the strength event. The creator is Lu Ye and his green onion soldiers!!"
The entire venue was filled with long-lasting screams, cheers and applause.
If there is a charm to Pokémon battles, it lies in the moment when you defeat your opponent.
The charm of Pokémon competitions, then, lies in breaking records and surpassing previous moments.
When all the competitions were over, the commentator shouted, "The gold medalist has been chosen! The champion of the strength event, Cong Youbing!!"
"Ga! ()σ" Cong Youbing looked indifferent, but secretly happy in his heart.
This proud and arrogant white knight won the applause of everyone present.
Lu Ye teased: "How is it, does it feel good?"
"Gah! (o)"
"Remember to continue taking care of the baby when you go back." Lu Ye said, "The elf eggs can't find their mother."
"Gah?!()σ"
The guest of honor at the award ceremony was All-Star contestant Ali.
After reciting a string of endorsement words, she hung the gold medal around Cong Youbing's neck and said with a smile:
"Congratulations, Green Onion Soldier."
"Ga~" Cong Youbing looked calm and was not surprised by praise or criticism.
"Oh, by the way, there is also this. Please give it to Teacher Lu." Ah Li took out the cobblestone badge from his arms. "I forgot to give it to him last time. Teacher Lu should need it."
"Ga!" The onion soldier nodded lightly and stretched out his onion shield.
It's just a small thing, a piece of cake! "Thank you for your help~" Ah Li smiled and put the badge into the inner slot of the shield of the Cong Youbing.
Teacher Lu is "encouraging" Ajin who is in second place.
"Come on, the future is yours!"
"Damn it, I have to get a gold medal this year!"
While we were talking, a prompt sound suddenly came from my ear.
【Ding! Mission progress updated! 】
【Badge Collection: (7/8)】
[Mission Description: One step away! ]
Lu Ye:? A familiar feeling of suffocation surged into my chest.
Teacher Lu moved his gaze to look at the green soldier beside Ah Li. The badge in the groove of the shield was so bright that it was almost blinding.
Can I get a badge from this?
Teacher Lu had a complicated expression and pursed his lips.
You said I would win a Pokémon battle and get a badge, that's fine...
I'm out for sports, and you can also cut me?!
Damn Ah Li——
Forget it, this girl is too pitiful, and she and I have the same experience...
"Teacher Lu, why do you suddenly look so unhappy?" A Jin asked.
"nothing."
Lu Ye took out the small notebook he carried with him and turned to a new page.
"What is this?" Ajin leaned over and asked curiously.
"Your name." Lu Ye said lightly.
