Chapter 47: Day 47 of Cultivation
Chapter 47
Team A's second player Gojo Satoru and his Pokémon, "the new Monkey King of the Back Mountain Jungle Area" Kanako, fought their way through all the obstacles and won every battle, defeating all the dozen or so monkeys left by Fujita.
This is all thanks to the passive skill, New Monkey King's Ascension. Once this passive skill is activated, Kanako's kingly aura suppresses all of Fujita's Pokémon.
The monkeys, who had not seen such racial values for a long time, immediately got down from their seats and lowered their heads, expressing their surrender without a word. They had lost all their fighting spirit.
The system was so excited that it slammed the table and said, "Oh my god! Gojo Satoru actually obtained the most powerful Pokémon partner in this venue so quickly. How did he do it?"
"Also, how did the new Monkey King find the venue for his match against Shikato Fujita? Everything seems to be an unsolved mystery..."
Mingming interrupted the system's explanation, "It's not an unsolved mystery. It's just that there was a scene with crows flying that was too troublesome, so I didn't show it."
The system was stunned, then gave the microphone to Mingming and added, "I see. Then can I request a replay?"
Mingming's lips curled up slightly as he looked at the projection screen and said, "We're currently broadcasting a wonderful scene. How can we interrupt such a wonderful scene? It would be a shame to miss it."
After hearing her words, everyone in the audience who was still arguing about the appearance of the new Monkey King suddenly focused, staring intently at the screen with their ears pricked up.
Before the picture came into view, the sound had already quickly reached my ears.
Only the following conversations were heard repeatedly.
"Stop! Stop now! I give up!" This should be Fujita's voice.
"You can scream at the top of your lungs, but no one will come to save you!" This is Gojo Satoru's voice.
The electronic referee's "KO" calls continued to echo in the background, and then Fujita's voice took on a certain tearful tone.
"Woo woo...broken throat, broken throat!"
"I've already told you that it's useless whether you shout until your throat is broken or say 'broken throat'! Stop using the same old tricks!" This is Kanako's voice.
Fujita's defense collapsed. "What can I do? I'm helpless too. You guys aren't battling Pokémon at all, you're attacking me! Referee, I want to report this for malicious attack!"
"What!?" the system asked in surprise, and then began to load the tone of the broadcasting voice.
"Look, this man is called Deerman. He's participating in a 'Pokémon Tournament', ostensibly a 'Pokémon Battle Tournament', but actually a 'Pan Xing Cult Annexation Tournament', and he's crying out in public! It turns out that he's the one who's been getting beaten up in Pokémon battles all this time!"
"I have successfully received your report and it is being processed..." The electronic referee hesitated for only a few seconds before immediately ruling, "The report is invalid."
"It has been determined that you and the Pokémon 'Tanker One', 'Tanker Two', and others (a total of thirty-six Pokémon omitted below) have all entered into a 'damage-neutralizing' bond, intending to exploit this bond to obtain designated skills."
"This designated skill is officially called 'Standby Attack'. Its effect is: 'When a creature on the field is attacked, it can actively initiate a Stand Attack, swapping a creature in the background to the front to offset the damage.'"
Almost the next second after the mechanical sound fell, Kanako immediately noticed the loophole.
Kanako: "It's 'creatures on the field', not just 'trainers on the field'. This means that 'Pokémon on the field' can also voluntarily launch a Stand Attack when attacked!"
Kanako: "And you, that deer man, standing in the back of the Pokémon battle, are also considered a 'backstage creature'!"
Fujita's expression was ferocious: "What?!"
Gojo Satoru: Great, it turns out I’m not the only one who can’t remember the names of passersby.
"Hehehe." Kanako laughed happily and cheerfully, "You have to send as many of those Pokémon monkeys named "tank series" as you can, and then keep putting you in the front row to be attacked."
"...Are you surprised?" Kanako's words fell into Fujita Shikato's ears and completely turned into the devil's whisper.
"But I'm the master of those monkeys...it's obvious that only I can use my skills!"
The electronic referee ruthlessly repeated, "Refutation is invalid. I respect the Pokémon's own opinion."
In the previous battle, Fujita took advantage of the referee's rule of "respecting the laws of Pokémon Go" to gain the upper hand, but later, he was knocked down twice by the same rule.
"My turn, attack!"
"Go on, attack!"
"It's my turn again, attack!"
Kanako didn't use the Yuyun, but punched him directly in the face. In just a few hits, Fujita was beaten black and blue.
Gojo Satoru was so happy that he was going crazy. He joined the monkeys around him in applauding Kanako, and did not forget to take out his cell phone and took a series of photos of Kanako.
At the same time, all kinds of noises suddenly became strange.
Fujita: "Broken throat! Wuwu..."
Kanako became more and more excited as she spoke: "Just shout as much as you want. The louder you shout, the more excited I will be!"
Gojo Satoru was suddenly stunned:?
Wait, what a weird statement!
But Kanako shouted with righteousness, and didn't think there was anything strange about such words. It was the listeners' ears that were strange.
"Is this not going to work? I haven't given you a real shot yet." Kanako was pointing at Youyun hanging around her neck.
"It doesn't matter if I beat you up and you cry, you should just look at yourself crying because you are so wronged..." Kanako refused to give in.
Gojo Satoru couldn't bear to listen any longer: "That..."
In the audience, the kid who had originally suggested the loser might have to wear a bunny girl costume spoke up again: "What are they talking about? This doesn't sound like the conversation you'd hear when a justice messenger punishes a villain."
Adults: “…”
Child: “So what does that mean?”
The adults rushed to the front: "...You don't need to understand!" "Shut up!"
Mingming was very happy watching it: "Look, isn't this the most popular scene? It just lacks a bundle."
System: "That simply suits your hobbies!!!"
Geto Suguru's focus was not on this, and his expression looked a little unhappy.
Geto Xia Yu clasped his hands together, then closed his eyes, repeating in his mind: [Kanako, stop. If you continue, it will be too much.]
[Kanako, stop. You need to stay calm.]
【Kanako...! 】
The further he spoke, the heavier his tone became, mixed with a hint of impatience and anxiety. Kanako didn't stop until the attack round on the screen was completely over.
Then, she stood there quietly, responding to the words in the guardian channel in her mind; [I stopped, Xiaojie, you were actually very calm just now!]
[Don't be angry... I just want to vent because I'm a little angry too.]
Kanako raised her head and requested an ambulance to the electronic referee, which was immediately approved. She then squatted beside the unconscious Fujita, and the monkeys followed her in a circle.
"You could have lost with dignity. Losing a game doesn't mean you've lost your entire life... But you did something you absolutely shouldn't have done."
Kanako's eyes instantly lost their luster: "The monkeys treat you as a companion and are willing to serve as your Pokémon in battle, but you don't know how to cherish it at all."
"Using them as shields, as disposable items that can be discarded at will... Is someone like this still worthy of being a Pokémon Trainer!?"
"Today I taught you a lesson on their behalf. You only suffered minor injuries and are not in danger of death. If I encounter you a second time, it won't be so simple.
There seemed to be an invisible and intangible cloak behind Kanako, and she turned around gracefully.
"After all, I am their new Monkey King."
She left without leaving any cloud behind.
[Team A's second player, Gojo Satoru, wins.]
[Team B's number one contestant, Shikato Fujita, failed to defend his title.]
The next to enter was the second contestant of Team B. Lu Renjia was so nervous that he started looking for a hiding place with chattering teeth as soon as he entered the venue.
Are you kidding? Who can win against normal Pokémon in this situation?
As a result, he was surrounded by Gojo Satoru and Kanako before he could hide for two minutes.
"You guys..." Lu Renjia stumbled back a few steps. He was still struggling to escape when he was targeted by one of the monkeys who obeyed Kanako's words.
The little monkey climbed onto a nearby tree branch and dropped a branch in the path that Lu Renjia had to take to escape, successfully tripping him.
Lu Renjia fell to his knees.
"You're cheating!" Lu Renjia cried. "You've been cheating since the beginning. How can an eliminated contestant continue to stay in the venue?"
"Cheating? What cheating?" Gojo Satoru took slow steps and approached, "Kanako, I thought I heard a dog barking just now."
Kanako blinked, and immediately understood what Gojo Satoru meant. "That's not a good thing to say, Trainer Gojo Satoru. As your temporary Pokémon companion, I have to correct you."
"Dogs are good friends of humans, and they can also become good friends of us monkeys. Can the human trainers of Team B do it? They probably can't."
The two raised their heads and looked towards the Black Crow, where the live broadcast camera was located, and said in unison: "Because it was you, Team B, who started cheating first."
Gojo Satoru tilted his head and smiled: "Do you think I can't find it?"
Sonoda Shigeru frowned.
It seems he still underestimated the "Six Eyes" of the world of spells. (System: No, simply using a phone to read text messages is too low-level a cheat. At least disguise it.)
I didn't expect these sorcerer students to be so cunning at such a young age. They're truly formidable. (System: No, admit it! Your cheating methods are too low-level! You even praised your opponent, but you're just so unwilling to admit your own mistakes!)
"Let Lu Renjia surrender. No, let everyone behind him surrender, and I will go to meet them myself." Sonoda Shigeru decided.
It's time to show off their Panxing Sect's trump card.
[Contestant No. 2 of Team B, Lu Renjia, failed in his challenge.]
[Contestant number three of Team B failed the challenge of Foot Tu Yi.]
[Contestant No. 4 of Team B, Player C, failed the challenge.]
Team B's number five player, Shigeru Sonoda, comes on stage.
"Before that, I'm going to activate a field spell... Ahem, sorry for the slip of the tongue," Sonoda Shigeru said. "I'm going to activate a special skill declaration."
System: "You mentioned field magic just now... You definitely did! That was the Yu-Gi-Oh Duel next door, not a Pokémon battle!"
[Please start your chant.] The style of the electronic music gradually became strange.
Sonoda Shigeru took out some papers and said, "Please take a look at this contract and project plan in my hand."
Kanako: "What the hell is he doing?"
Gojo Satoru: “…I think I guessed it.”
Sonoda Shigeru read out the general idea: "In order to provide usable land resources for the development of the Panxing Sect's Home of the Sons of the Stars headquarters and the surrounding cities, the planned plan is—"
"Rip out the jungle area behind the mountain."
The referee used a language translator to repeat Sonoda Shigeru's words to the monkeys. Suddenly, the monkeys screamed and ran around.
They huddled together nervously, pushing each other, with fear flashing in their eyes... This also reminded them of the eradication crisis that almost befell them in history.
"Yes, that's right. If you support the new Monkey King, I will immediately hire people to raze the entire jungle! Your Pokémon's home and your lives will be buried in the soil!" said Shigeru Sonoda. "Then, make your choice."
"Will you choose to continue following the new Monkey King and lose everything? Or will you choose to trust me and, after we achieve victory, live out your remaining years in peace and tranquility in this paradise?"
"...You are such a despicable bastard, sir." Kanako cursed with gritted teeth.
"Yes." Gojo Satoru said.
The monkeys gradually disappeared into the jungle. A few of them looked at Kanako reluctantly, without saying anything, and placed blooming wild flowers on the open space.
Those wild flowers would be perfect for decorating the wreath on Kanako's head.
Kanako didn't blame them because it wasn't the monkeys' fault and they had no choice but to do so for their own survival.
As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator, Kanako glared at Shigeru Sonoda fiercely.
Sonoda Shigeru gave a typical villain smile and said, "Now let me tell you about the attributes of this new Monkey King."
[Alright. Since the new Monkey King has lost popular support, his passive skill, New Monkey King's Enthronement, has disappeared, and his stats have dropped significantly!]
Kanako has basically become a blank slate.
On the other hand, Sonoda Shigeru summoned a high-level monkey with high attributes: "I want to challenge the champion."
[The challenge was initiated successfully, and the battle begins. ]
On one side is Sonoda Shigeru, who has overwhelming attributes and ability values, and on the other side is Gojo Satoru, who only has the blank Pokémon "Kanako".
Physical strength and cursed power are restricted in all aspects due to the rules of Pokémon battles.
In this situation... How can the [Tengen-sama Game Club] win?!
The system took a deep breath and was so nervous that it didn't know what to do. It quickly looked at Jiaru Xiaozi and Mingming beside it.
The two of them played cat's tuck leisurely, and seemed to have great confidence in the current situation.
"It doesn't matter, someone... will take action." said Ieiri Shoko.
"I'm sorry I'm late, Your Majesty."
The monkey's call automatically changed into a deep female voice, and the monkey that came to help had a striking name on its head.
"Sonda Shigeru".
Gojo Satoru was overjoyed: "It's you, Sonoda Shigeru!"
Sonoda Shigeru: Damn it…!
The taunt effect is instantly maximized.
It’s Shigeru Sonoda, who has the same name as me!!!
