Chapter 777: Beating the baby? Teacher Lu VS Karuna!
[This is announcer Pakira, bringing you live coverage of the Miare Conference. ]
The venue of the Miare Conference was crowded with people and very lively.
The trainer walked with his Pokémon, staring down at his phone screen.
The screen displayed the news footage of the "Holographic Communicator".
The announcer was a red-haired woman wearing red sunglasses. She was none other than Pakira, the current Fire King of the Carlos League.
"We can see that the audience has started to come in."
Pakila stood in front of the venue, facing the camera, and explained:
"The number of attendees at this year's opening ceremony hit a record high, with many fans and supporters of Mr. Lu among them."
"It is understood that Dr. Bratano from the Mega Evolution field will also be attending as a guest."
"The opening ceremony of the Miare Conference will begin in ten minutes. Let's wait and see!"
In the corner of the camera's frame, a black-haired young man who 'doesn't know how to battle Pokémon' passed by and was talking to the man next to him.
"Mr. Shimi, please help me."
"It is my honor to serve as your guide." Shimi, dressed in a white chef's uniform, said slowly, "Please follow me to the backstage to rest for a while... The champion and the doctor will be here soon."
The two walked into the guest passage, cheers echoed in the hall, and the atmosphere was warm.
Walking in silence, Zhimi suddenly said: "To be honest... I have an unwelcome request."
"What?"
"After the opening game, I would like to ask you about the art of cooking... I wonder if it will cause you any trouble." Shimi murmured.
"Of course no problem." Lu Ye said in silence.
Among the four kings of the Kalos League, Shimi is a chef and Pakira is a news anchor.
Even the champion’s main occupation is a movie queen…it really fits the ethos of the Carlos League.
Zhimi's eyes flashed with gratitude. There were footsteps in front of them. They both looked up at the same time. A doctor at the corner waved and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Zhimi, it seems that I got here first."
"Dr. Blatano." Shimi nodded slightly, "Where is the contestant who is traveling with you?"
"You mean Ai Lan? He went to the contestant group with his girlfriend."
Dr. Bratano laughed and said, "With someone to protect and a desire to win, Ailan has a strong belief in winning."
“Several of my students are the same way.”
Teacher Lu's eyes flickered, and he smiled and said, "To test the results of their journey through an entire league... the final exam is now!"
** Outside the venue, the Rockets set up a booth once again.
This time, the battle plan is to save up for a trip to Alola to fulfill the dream of a luxury resort and golden beach! "There are Gengar dolls and Senbu dolls, don't miss them, meow!"
"Ptcg genuine card pack, officially authorized, there is a chance to get Mr. Lu's autographed card~"
"Exclusive information! All the players! Veteran Xiaozhi, rookie Shouta, beautiful girl Xunxiang, team intelligence revealed!"
Tourists stopped and talked about it.
"Xiaozhi... I remember he also attended the Unova Conference a few months ago."
"It doesn't matter if it's a beautiful girl. I mainly want to criticize the style of selling information!"
Not far from Team Rocket's booth, Blue was almost collapsed into a puddle of Ditto, huddled under the counter in frustration.
Damn it... Being assigned to this area, I can’t attract any customers at all!
The stalls were filled with a range of items including strength-boosting, defense-boosting, and evolution stones.
Xiao Lan once used these fake and shoddy props to cheat Xiao Chi.
However, the evolution stones sold by Xiaolan are of very good quality, because she does not allow fraud in her professional field of "evolution".
Even dishonest businessmen have their own code of conduct! The gray-haired boy walked past the counter with dead eyes and his hands in his pockets.
Glancing at the items on the counter, Shinji shook the Poké Ball at his waist and looked at the eager-looking Boskodora in the Poké Ball.
"They are all junk items. There is no need to buy them." Shinji said coldly.
Little Blue: ? Sir, are you polite? Boscodora lowered his head in dismay.
"But," Shinji whispered, "if you win the game, I'll consider buying it."
Aboskodora's fighting spirit burned, Shinji's mouth curled up slightly, and the keystone bracelet on his wrist glowed faintly.
"All the contestants have entered! The cheers are loud and the venue is boiling!" said Pachila, the host.
The drone flew over the stadium, and the contestants on the green field looked up. Xiaozhi grinned and raised his head to greet the drone.
"Xiaozhi!" Hanako recognized him at a glance while sitting at home.
On the rostrum, Dr. Bratano looked at the big screen, looked at the young man in the black jacket, and nodded:
"Ai Lan and Xiao Zhi both have very good eyesight."
"Ailan trained with Zifuchi Daigo for a period of time."
Lu Ye smiled, burning with an inexplicable desire to win, and said:
"And Xiaozhi also trained with me for a while."
Bratano looked at Teacher Lu in surprise, then looked at the big screen.
The big screen showed the other players, such as Tieruno and Doroba, the protagonists of the game "Pokémon XY".
Lu Ye rubbed his chin.
XY has the largest number of protagonists in all games, with a total of five, but their presence is weak... There is a high probability that they will be cannon fodder this time.
"Next, please welcome the league champion, Caroline, to give a speech for the conference!"
The atmosphere was warm and there were cheers and shouts.
A gray-haired woman in white rose from the podium. She looked very similar to Audrey Hepburn, with an elegant and dignified figure and a white ornament on her back.
On the big screen, her eyes were blue, she leaned into the microphone and smiled:
“It is an honor for me to give a speech at this Miare Conference.”
The soft and moving voice echoed in the venue, and the place was instantly quiet. Karuna continued: "All the contestants present have fought with their partners all the way to this day. Trainers with noble souls and Pokémon with moving figures make up this Miare Tournament."
Shinji put his hands in his pockets, his dead fish eyes were faintly shining.
"You are not alone in your fight. Today, you and your Pokémon continue to shine brightly."
Ailan and Manon stood together and looked up at the podium.
"Please display all your efforts, sweat, tears, and all the treasures you have accumulated on this stage without reservation—"
Xiaozhi's eyes burned, he shouldered Pikachu, and clenched his fists tightly.
"Next, I declare that the competition of the Miare Conference will begin now!"
Caroline waved her hands high, the sky was filled with salutes, golden fireworks covered the sky, and cheers were boiling.
The main platform of the venue rises and stops with a clang, presenting a battlefield of rock and water.
On both sides of the main platform, two passages extend out, connecting the trainer's command platform.
Two figures walked out slowly from the passages at both ends of the platform.
Seeing the familiar figure, the audience opened their eyes wide, unable to hide their excitement.
The host said:
"The ones bringing you the opening match of the Miare Conference are Champion Lu Ye from the Donghuang Alliance!!"
Lu Ye walked out of the contestant channel and smiled towards the camera.
In an instant, the venue was filled with earth-shaking cheers.
"Here comes the battle legend specially invited by the conference!"
"My goodness, whose home court is this?"
"Oh no! Teacher Lu is the guest of honor for the opening match. I'm afraid there will be a live broadcast accident!"
"Teacher Lu: Isn't this beating the baby?"
The other side.
Caroline arrived at the contestant channel from the lift platform in the backcourt. She walked out slowly and gracefully, like a shining star.
"On the other side, it's the champion of the Carlos League, Karunai!!" said the host.
"Come on, Ms. Karunori!!"
"Looking forward to Gardevoir's Mega Evolution!"
"I've seen this episode. Teacher Lu's methods are extremely cruel!"
Both sides took their positions in the command areas on either side.
The opening match is in the form of an exhibition match, lasting 10 minutes, similar to a gorgeous battle.
"It has to be entertaining, but it can't defeat Karuna within 10 minutes..."
Lu Ye muttered, "It's really difficult."
The site is a rocky terrain, with a river flowing from the rocky mountain, passing through as a dividing line.
The referee waved his flag and said,
"The battle begins!!"
Karuna threw the Poké Ball and said, "Please, Gardevoir!"
The red light bloomed, Gardevoir's white skirt swayed, her figure was light, and her red eyes were crystal clear: "Hoo~~"
No matter when, Gardevoir is synonymous with elegance and beauty.
There was an exclamation from the audience.
As the representative Pokémon of Karuna, it is only right for him to play in the opening match! "Go, Arcanine!" Lu Ye threw the luxurious ball.
Arcanine landed calmly, his mane flowing, reflecting the sunlight, looking extraordinary and heroic: "Ouch! (｀0)"
The fierce aura of "intimidation" spread out, and the audience on both sides held their breath and focused their eyes.
"Gardevoir." Kaluna stretched out his arms and said, "Magic Shine!"
"Shh~~"
Gardevoir clasped its hands together, covering the heart-shaped bulge on its chest, and light continued to gather.
The next moment, the "magic flash" split into four or five colorful beams of light, all flying out at the same time! "Jet flames!" Lu Ye said.
“Ouch!!”
Orange-red flames surged from the mouth of the Wind Speed Dog, and it shot out with a "bang". The blazing flames instantly swallowed up all the light.
boom!!
The heat wave surged, and Gardevoir instantly moved to the side of Wind Speed Hound, stretched out two palms, and blue light lit up in the palms.
"Strong mental power!" said Caroline.
"唦~~" Gardevoir held its breath and concentrated. The blue light formed a closed ball of light, covering Windy Hound, trying to control it.
"Awooo?" Windspeed turned its head and looked at the blue telekinesis around it, with a puzzled look on its face.
Is it trying to lift me up?
Suddenly, the blue telekinesis that enveloped the wind speed dog turned into thousands of spiritual spikes, shooting out like a rainstorm! "Flash Charge!" Lu Ye said quickly.
Swoosh! The wind speed dog's mane ignited with blazing flames, and it smashed the telekinetic barrier with a "crack", like a war machine bathed in orange flames, roaring and charging!
The audience hissed.
It seemed as if I saw an ivory pig rushing in from the end of the tundra with the force of an avalanche.
A row of charred footprints was left on the ground, stirring up a surging heat wave, and the distance between the two sides was very close!
“Teleport!”
Caroline calmly took off the pendant from her chest and gently closed her eyes. The keystone shone with crystal light and her azure eyes suddenly opened.
"Gardevoir, Mega Evolution!!"
“Yay!!”
Gardevoir flashed to one side of the venue, and the heart-shaped bulge on its chest burst into rainbow light. The tide-like light formed a light shield, and the streams of light continued to interweave.
The white light faded, and the rainbow symbol symbolizing super evolution lit up on Gardevoir's forehead.
Mega Gardevoir's dress is more fluffy, and the hem seems to have changed from an ordinary long skirt to an evening gown, elegant and noble, and the heart-shaped bulge on the chest is also divided into two.
"Gardevoir has completed its mega evolution!! This is the true super power queen!!" the commentator said excitedly.
"So beautiful!" Yurika's eyes sparkled.
"Gardevoir and its trainer are in sync, so there's no need for words and commands can be given through telepathy," said Citron.
With flames burning, Arcanine rushed across the river that served as the middle boundary. The water surface was boiling with a hissing sound and was surrounded by white mist.
"Stop." Lu Ye said, "Use hot air!"
Windy Dog opened its mouth and vented flames towards the sky. The scorching airflow twisted the air, and rolling heat waves blew from all directions! Even if it moved instantly, it could not escape the range of the hot wind! Karuna's eyes flashed, and with telepathy, she gave the command: "Wall of light!"
"Yay!" A glass-like barrier lit up in front of Mega Gardevoir, and hot wind blew over, melting the light wall. Gardevoir tried its best to resist.
"Awooo..." Windspeed took a deep breath.
"Now is the time." Karuno's eyes focused: "Shadow Ball!!"
“Yay!!”
A dark shadow ball gathered at Gardevoir's chest and was fired with a bang, hitting the front, exploding in a wave of smoke.
boom!!
The audience was in an uproar.
"Shadow Ball hit!"
"This is Mega Gardevoir's full-strength attack!!"
Lu Ye raised his eyebrows.
The black smoke dissipated, and Windy shook his mane. His injuries were minimal, and he recovered quickly under the burning of the "Holy Fire".
"Awooo!" Windspeed grinned.
Sister, I don’t have enough strength!
Caroline's eyes froze: "How could it be..."
Flame has both a violent side and a symbol of endless life.
The "holy fire" from the Ho-Oh increases the life energy of the Arcanine. In terms of passive, the speed of the Arcanine's blood recovery and the upper limit of its physical strength are greatly increased! "10 minutes are almost up..."
Lu Ye glanced at the big screen and his eyes fixed.
It's time to wrap up.
"Windspeed, Ironhead!!"
"Ouch!" Arden charged forward at great speed, smashing through the light wall with a 'crack' and hitting the heart-shaped bulge on Mega Gardevoir's chest with its forehead.
"Hmm..."
Mega Gardevoir seemed to turn into black and white lines, and in the moment of distraction, a violent impact spread throughout its body.
Karuna frowned, realizing that Arcanine was not chasing him. She suddenly realized and said, "Teleport!"
Arcanine did not launch another attack. Gardevoir instantly moved behind Arcanine and emitted dazzling magic flashes from its palms!
BANG!!
The colorful lights bloomed in the center of the venue, turning into scattered light fragments, like fireworks filling the sky.
Lu Ye and Windy looked up and time returned to zero.
beep--
The host said promptly:
“Thank you both champions for the wonderful performance!!”
The audience looked up at the falling light fragments with burning enthusiasm.
“Oh my god, is this also designed?”
"Both sides tried their best..."
"Teacher Lu, you are a master at pretending to be confused!"
In the contestant area, Manon looked up and said, "Alan, how does Arcanine compare to Pakira's Mega Houndoom?"
Ai Lan said seriously: "There is absolutely no comparison."
"Huh?" Manon blinked.
Ai Lan said nothing more. She looked at Teacher Lu on the field and recalled the scene of their first meeting.
Killed instantly by Mega Blastoise, Ai Lan took a deep breath and looked determined.
Teacher Lu...compared to that time, I have made great progress!
At the same time, the other two gazes held their own beliefs.
Shinji put his hands in his pockets, a gleam in his eyes.
The meaning of bond... I still can't understand it, but this doesn't stop me from becoming stronger... Teacher Lu.
Xiaozhi twirled the brim of his hat.
Mr. Lu is not attending this Miare Conference... I must seize this opportunity! The battle field descended, and the green lawn rose.
The two champions stepped forward and shook hands.
"Thank you." Caroline said softly.
The implication is that he was thanking Mr. Lu for asking Windy Dog to show mercy at the last moment.
"You're welcome." Lu Ye said generously.
It's just an exhibition match, there's no need to embarrass both sides.
Besides, it’s just defeating Carlos the champion.
There is really no sense of accomplishment...
"Next, please welcome the two teams competing in the first round of today's battle!"
The host said:
"Contestant Ailan versus Contestant Doraba!!"
…
The opening ceremony and first day competition of the Miare Conference came to an end.
The opening match between the two champions is still talked about.
Just coming here for Teacher Lu is worth the price of admission today.
The first day of competition came to an end, with Alan and Shinji both making it into the top 64.
Mega Charizard X completed the classic one-on-three.
Surprisingly, Shinji's Ascotropa also completed Mega Evolution, defeated his opponent and advanced successfully.
Mr. Lu is happy to see Shinji's transformation... He and Ailan are both strong rivals of Satoshi, and Satoshi has also promoted their growth.
On the second day of the competition, Xiaozhi's Greninja appeared and demonstrated an amazing "Bond Transformation".
"It appears, Greninja's special form! Satoshi has also prepared a killer move for this tournament!!" said the commentator.
Ai Lan leaned on the railing, overlooking the battlefield, with high morale.
Shinji put his hands in his pockets and looked at the picture on the big screen.
"I'm Xiaozhi from Pallet Town. My dream is to become a Pokémon Master, and--"
The boy carried Pikachu on his shoulders, raised his hands to the sky, looked fierce, and grinned: "Win the Miare Championship!!"
The audience was boiling with excitement, and the commentator was shocked: "It appears, Xiaozhi's victory declaration!"
Lu Ye: “…”
This action gives me a strong sense of déjà vu, it seems like he learned it from me...
“I hope you don’t set a flag like me.”
Teacher Lu had a complicated expression as he recalled the terrible original plot.
"Greninja is the first to be beaten up in his own execution song!"
