Pokémon: Encounter

Chapter 422 Ice and Fire, Purple and Blue

"Blue Flame Blade Ghost!"

"It's up to you!"

Dark purple armor, cold eyes, and two purple swords burning with dark blue flames.

The young ghost swordsman stood proudly, staring quietly at the figure in the sky.

The night before, when they were discussing tactics with their partners in the south, each of them expressed a great desire to fight. In the previous battle in the Dragon Cave, Pidgeot, Absol and Gyarados, who was Magikarp at the time, were the most direct participants.

Only the Iron Warrior and the Blue Flame Blade Demon, which had not evolved at that time, did not feel real.

So after everyone's unanimous decision, the Iron Warrior and the Blue Blade Ghost were the ones to fight in this battle factory. As for who would go first and who would go second, it was decided by drawing lots later.

Well, it's so democratic and sloppy.

Anyway, they won't lose.

(*≧︶≦))Hey~!

Just kidding, facing the leaders whose strength is comparable to that of the Four Heavenly Kings, Nan Fang still doesn't dare to take on the mentality of shirking to deal with them.

As I said, just do the best you can.

By the way, what Daigo in the other world said before, that whoever gets the leader will get South Island, is actually very pertinent.

Although the heads of various facilities are from different countries, their political stance is basically neutral, and they will hardly take the initiative to take sides.

It does sound a bit contradictory, but if we can finally clear the entire battle frontier and gain recognition of our strength from all the leaders, at least in front of most of the people, this will also be a very important booster and a strong point of convincing the public.

After all, there are some confused people who have firmly believed that the "Battle Frontier Zone is their own local organization" and even engraved it in their bones.

Therefore, we can not only do some things that are our responsibility for the country, but also fully test and exercise our personal strength.

Regarding this trip to the frontier area, Nan Fang was relatively relaxed about it.

"Oh? It's a rare Pokémon from the Puju region."

"Brother Nan Fang, you have really covered a wide range of areas. And it seems that the training level of this Blue Flame Blade Ghost is not low. It is rare to find young people with such high comprehensive strength and combat proficiency as you." Dara praised.

"Brother Dara, please stop praising me."

"I'm actually just an ordinary doctor in a small clinic who knows a little bit of medical skills, but my love for Pokémon is real~" Nan Fang replied.

"Hahaha, just based on what you said last, I admire you enough."

"Among the people I know, apart from the heads of the facilities, I'm afraid only Miss Zhulan has the same talent and purity as you."

"Oh? Brother, do you know Sister Zhulan? Are you also from Beixiong?"

"I had the honor of meeting Sister Zhulan once before. To be honest, I can't compare with her... She is a humanoid monster..."

Nan Fang shuddered as he recalled the fear that Qian Li had felt when he was dominated by Zhu Lan.

"Hahaha, don't worry~ I will definitely tell Zhulan about your evaluation of her. You must call me when the time comes. The fight between you two will definitely be very exciting!"

"...".

thank you.

"Come to think of it, I haven't been back to my country for a long time. It's such a cold, mysterious, but exciting country. If you have the chance, you should travel there."

"must."

"Okay! That's enough of the reminiscing, the main event is about to begin!"

Nan Fang nodded, his nerves tense again.

The various states of the opponent's Articuno are still within the effective time. Relying solely on its own physical skills, the Blue Flame Blade Demon is actually still at a disadvantage.

We have to find a way to limit it.

"Articuno! Use the freeze beam!" Dara took the lead in using long-range attacks to test.

"Cang Yan Blade Ghost! Use the Sword of Regret to split it!" Nan Fang made a prompt decision.

The Blue Flame Blade Ghost was not in a hurry. When the beam of light was about to reach it, it held the sword in one hand, and the big sword wrapped in dark blue flames swept out in an instant.

"Swish, swish, swish—!"

A few blurry sword flowers appeared, and the freezing beam stayed in mid-air and then disappeared.

Dara's eyes lit up.

Judging from the fighting power alone, this Blue Flame Blade Ghost is almost on par with the previous Iron Warrior.

One of them is wielding a sword, the other is dancing with a knife, so majestic. Where on earth did this kid from the south encounter such a powerful Pokémon?

"In that case, Articuno! Use Blizzard!"

Dara then used a long-range ultimate move.

"Surprise attack!"

Nan Fang chose to use his attribute talent to let the Cang Yan Blade Ghost hide in a different space to avoid the opponent's attack.

The snowstorm failed, but because of the powerful force of the move, the entire surface of the battlefield was covered with a thick layer of ice, turning it into an "artificial ice rink".

Nan Fang's eyes moved slightly, and he had an idea in his mind.

"Focus! Feel the spatial fluctuations around you!"

As expected of the head of the facility, Dara responded immediately.

Articuno moved his eyes left and right, waiting quietly.

On top!

In just a moment, the Blue Flame Blade Ghost had broken through the void and moved directly above Articuno. This was the power of the ghost attribute.

But Articuno's reaction was not slow either. It immediately turned its body around and faced the falling Blue Flame Blade Demon.

"Use Yan Hui!"

Articuno instantly shot out and rushed straight towards the Blue Flame Blade Demon.

"Good chance! Take it!"

I saw Cang Yan Blade Ghost crossed his two swords and used his body to forcibly block Articuno's attack.

"Crack——!"

A slight shattering sound was heard.

Dara was shocked and expressed doubts, but he hesitated only for a moment before giving the next order.

"Just grab it like that! And throw it to the ground!"

"Shadow sneak attack!"

The agile Blue Flame Blade Ghost disappeared again and instantly flashed to the back of Articuno.

"Shh-!"

The sound of breaking air was heard, and Articuno was finally hurt.

"How is it possible!? At that distance, it shouldn't be able to dodge!" Dara was surprised.

With a backflip, the Blue Flame Blade Ghost landed steadily on the ground, and a piece of ice under his feet shattered immediately.

"Articuno! Go ahead! Use Triple Spin!"

Since long-range attacks can be broken by their strange moves, use your own speed advantage to win with strength!

Articuno received the order and immediately rushed down.

The two claws under his body were like two sharp blades, just like an eagle seeing a rabbit, he pounced towards the Cang Yan Blade Ghost swiftly!

"Use Shadow Claw!"

The Blue Blade Demon summoned out his two swords, and the dark purple blades swung twice in succession, fiercely attacking the claws of Articuno.

Although the triple-spin attack consisted of three consecutive kicks, what surprised Dara was that the Cangran Blade Ghost actually blocked them all with his own speed.

That speed was a bit weird...Dara frowned.

"Now! Clear the smoke!" shouted the South.

"Oh no!" Dara suddenly felt something was wrong.

The Blue Blade Demon took advantage of the brief gap after Articuno's attack, and a dark purple smoke emanated from his body, instantly wrapping up Articuno.

The damage caused by the smoke from the cleaning process is actually minimal.

But the powerful point of this move is that it can reduce the opponent's improved status back to the original point.

Articuno's vision was blocked, and he immediately flapped his wings to blow away the smoke and distance himself from the Blue Blade Demon.

"Can't escape!"

"Blue Flame Blade Ghost! Regret Sword!"

"Shh-!"

Because of the strange speed, the flaming sword instantly slashed towards the Articuno in front of it and successfully caused damage to it, with outstanding results!

In fact, in the last round, the Iron Warrior used the same fate move at the last moment, and it did cause a little damage to Articuno. On the contrary, Articuno's physical strength was at least consumed by the same fate skill at that time.

In addition, now there is the Blue Flame Blade Ghost's attribute that restrains the Regret Sword and doubles the damage.

Articuno was also knocked away and fell heavily on the ground far away.

It's shattered armor!

After enduring two rapid counterattacks from the Blue Flame Blade Demon, Dara also saw the reason.

"I didn't expect that your Azure Blade Ghost's characteristic is actually armor-shattering."

"Then it makes sense that he was willing to take on Articuno's attack despite the risk of getting injured."

"Then, lure us into close combat and use the effect of the clearing smoke to reduce the status improvement of Articuno."

"Perfect tactics."

"Nanfang, you really are a great trainer!"

Dara exclaimed with all his heart.

"It's so-so. Without your 'threat of strength', Brother Dara, we wouldn't have been able to achieve this level." Nan Fang said modestly.

"Ahahahaha! I'm so excited!"

"I can compete with a trainer like you!"

“It’s really my luck!”

"Then next, this will be our final blow!"

"Let's end it!"

"Articuno! The final power! Absolute Zero!"

Articuno stood up with difficulty and stood on the ground with a firm look in his eyes.

The surrounding air instantly dropped to freezing point at this moment.

"boom--!"

A huge ice-blue energy beam instantly spurted out, shooting directly at the Cang Yan Blade Ghost on the opposite side! This move! It will definitely hit!

"Blue Flame Blade Ghost! Use the ice surface to increase speed!"

"Use Flash Charge!"

In an instant, the Blue Flame Blade Ghost shot out like an arrow, and its speed continued to increase with the help of the ice surface.

In a breath, the whole body of the Blue Flame Blade Ghost instantly ignited with blazing red flames. The intense heat caused the ice under his feet to evaporate directly, and the exposed ground was even charred.

The speed of the Blue Flame Blade Ghost was getting faster and faster, and the color of the red flame gradually deepened, eventually turning into a deep dark purple.

The ice on the ground stopped melting. Looking at the gradually approaching dark purple flame that was constantly emitting cold and chilly air, Dara did not dare to underestimate the terrifying power contained in this move.

"Give it to me! Go!"

"Give it to me! Go!"

-

The air seemed to be still, and the two people with high emotions watched everything happening in front of them nervously.

A clash of purple and icy blue.

There was only a moment's pause.

The purple ball directly crushed the icy blue and rushed straight towards Articuno standing behind.

"boom--!!!"

-

Two days later.

"Have you finally had enough rest?" Dara said with a smile.

"Well, thank you for your care these days, brother. If it weren't for the complete facilities here, I'm afraid I would have to stay here for another week." Nan Fang responded with a smile.

"If you want, I have no problem living here forever."

“My friends all like you very much.”

"Woo~~~!"

The Articuno nearby let out a happy cry.

"Hahaha, if I continue to stay here, I'm afraid my friends won't be able to take it anymore~"

Nanfang looked behind him and saw his friends saying goodbye to the Pokémon in the Battle Factory one by one.

During the days when Iron Warrior and Blue Blade Demon were recuperating from their injuries, whenever they had free time, the Pokémon in the Battle Factory would come together to find their southern companions and practice fighting with them.

Gyarados, who always eats a lot, has lost a lot of weight because of this.

"makes sense."

"Besides, you are not like me, a lazy person. You still have a lot of responsibilities on your shoulders."

"Your future will never be confined to a small corner like my factory."

Alas, this is actually my ultimate dream...

Nan Fang sighed inwardly.

"Let's go, brother. I'll come back to see you guys next time I have the chance!"

Nan Fang waved to Dara and Articuno, and left this handsome "iron castle" with a smile.

However, in his hand, there was now an additional badge box containing a golden symbol of knowledge.

-

After determining the direction, Nan Fang walked towards the place where he had come from somewhat helplessly.

Tell me why.

Because the second closest fighting facility to him, the fighting arena, was actually on the other side of the sea.

Although he didn't need to go back to Green Ridge City, he still needed to go to the port and take a boat across the sea to reach the equally densely populated island.

Nan Fang once asked Dara if there were no other fighting facilities on this large island full of rainforest?

Dara replied that what he had said at the beginning was that except for him, the old forester, and the relic maniac, no one else had the habit of living in seclusion.

This means that the upcoming battle arena, battle dome and battle pipeline will all be located on that island.

As the old forester was always somewhat elusive, Dara did not recommend that Nan Fang include him in the initial battle plan.

So there was no choice but for the South to once again set out on the road to the port.

The journey is generally about a day's distance.

Ah.

"Iron Warrior!"

"I let you fight so happily before, is it okay for you to help me clear the roadblock?"

“This is an absolutely fair exchange!”

The Iron Warrior silently looked at the cheating Nan Fang and felt helpless.

Okay, help him just this time.

The Iron Warrior turned around and casually swung a mental blade into the distance.

“Da na!!!”

Suddenly, an angry beast roar attracted the attention of the south.

It seemed that the Iron Warrior's attack accidentally hurt a Pokémon that was eating.

The owner of the beast's roar instantly became furious, and only a few loud "thump thump" sounds were heard.

A Pokémon with a green body and a huge flower bud on its back appeared in front of Nanfang.

Eh! ?
