Chapter 129 The Attitude of the War Room
Later that evening, after returning to the Pokémon Center, Ash and Dawn asked Brock about Nozomi's situation.
Actually, it wasn't anything particularly serious. It was just that Xiao Wang lost to Shang Zhi and Melissa in a row in one afternoon, and both times he suffered heavy defeats.
Both Shangzhi and Melissa are both trainers who juggle the dual roles of trainer coordinator and Pokémon trainer.
The only difference is that one is still on this path, while the other has already gone very far.
Looking at it this way, it's no wonder that Xiaowang had that expression this evening. Losing to people who dream of having it all must have given her some inspiration, right?
In short, the first day in Yosuga City passed peacefully.
The next day arrived.
......
Fireworks and cannon salutes rang out around the venue of the Fate Festival, and even though it was daytime, the lively atmosphere was still clearly felt.
Yosuga City was packed with people. In order to watch the Yosuga Festival live, many people from surrounding cities even made a special trip to the scene.
Reporters from multiple television stations had already set up cameras at various angles around the scene, quietly waiting for the event to conclude. After all, post-event interviews would generate far more media attention than pre-event interviews.
At the booth at the Yuen no Kai event—
"Meow...Why do I have to do all this all by myself?!"
Meow Meow was busy making snacks at the stall all by herself. Usually, this was the time when she and Kojiro would be busy together.
But this time was different. Kojiro was dragged by Musashi to participate in the Pokémon Contest. Musashi said it would be troublesome for her to command two Pokémon by herself, so they decided to participate together.
They had it easy; all they had to do was go on stage. But Meow Meow couldn't do that.
After paying off their debts and giving Musashi several special beauty treatments for the Grand Contest, they had very little money left. They still couldn't make ends meet without this kind of part-time work.
.......
Nearly an hour later, the audience at the entrance of the conference venue began to enter, and the venue began to become lively.
In the lounge—
Dozens of contestants waited in the lounge; almost all the familiar faces to Hikaru were there to participate in this Fate Tournament.
"So you really did defeat Xiaowang yesterday...?"
"Yes, but yesterday's battle wasn't easy either. Miss Xiaowang seemed to be hiding something that was hard to resolve. Otherwise, she would have been more at ease during the battle."
Shang Zhi did not show much excitement or any other emotion about his victory over Xiao Wang; he simply stated the facts in a humble and composed manner.
Perhaps it was the unique nature of a bard that led Shangzhi to make this judgment the moment he first saw Xiaowang, but this judgment only became a reality after he fought with Xiaowang.
Meanwhile, next to Ash, Kengo was looking at him with hostility.
"This time is different from the last. I definitely won't lose to you again this time! Prepare yourself! I've figured out your Pikachu!"
"Skin?"
Pikachu looked completely bewildered, as if wondering what had been figured out about it. They'd only fought once, so how could they possibly know anything?
Meanwhile, Ash, on the other side, was also somewhat confused and asked:
"A fight is no problem... but have you always been hostile towards me?"
Ash didn't know where Kengo's hostility towards him came from, or why it was there.
If we're talking about the place where they had a feud... it seems like the only time was when Pikachu instantly killed his Prince during their first battle, right?
"Tsk, if you don't know, that's fine. Just know that I will definitely beat you this time."
Kengo waved his hand and didn't continue speaking. He just left after uttering that harsh remark.
.......
Meanwhile, in a corner of the competition area, Musashi... no, Sweet Musashi Lina was sitting with Kojiro Herbert, having a heated argument about something.
"Wait! Why is that brat competing with that little girl?! This is obviously not right! Shouldn't that brat be challenging the dojo?!"
Musashi thought that he and Kojiro could easily win the tournament by teaming up, since they certainly had more combat experience than the coordinators participating in the tournament.
But now the situation is different. She never expected that Ash would team up with Dawn to participate. Wouldn't their original winning rate drop suddenly?
It's important to understand that the second round of judging for the Pokémon Contest is based on Pokémon battles, no matter what.
Even if the moves used by both sides aren't particularly flashy, as long as they're powerful enough, they can directly incapacitate the opponent, and the outcome of the match will naturally follow.
However, such a crude fighting style would be disliked by the audience.
"I do not know......"
Kojiro took off his top hat and said with an innocent look:
"Perhaps it's because the gym leader is busy? I remember that Melissa, the gym leader of the Yuenyu Gym, was also one of the judges at today's Yuenyu Tournament."
"Damn it!!"
Musashi pounded on the wall with all his might, saying with great resentment.
"This should have been my chance to really show off! Why did I have to run into that brat at this crucial moment?!"
"Hmm...and judging from the kid's past record, they should be able to pass the first round of review smoothly, barring any unforeseen circumstances."
After a moment of contemplation, Kojiro struck Musashi again.
"What are you going to do? Hey! Kojiro, think of something quick!"
"Even if you say you'll find a way... we might not even meet them, right? After all, we could still be eliminated first~ Haha~ Haha..."
Kojiro was speaking when he saw Musashi's gloomy expression, and his laughter stopped abruptly.
Kojiro felt the sweat pouring down his back and began to rack his brains. Musashi had already reached out to him, and if he didn't think of a solution quickly, Kojiro was afraid he would be defeated before the match even started.
Fortunately, perseverance pays off. Just before Musashi's "claws" reached Kojiro's head, Kojiro finally had a flash of inspiration and said:
"I've got it! If we really run into that brat, we'll just go all out and attack her Pokémon!"
"Um...this..."
Musashi thought about Kojiro's plan for a moment and thought it was feasible.
After all, given the kid's personality, if something goes wrong with his companions, his attention will be diverted.
The two exchanged a glance and simultaneously let out a sinister smile.
At that moment, they all felt that they were indeed born villains.
