Chapter 64: A Strange Situation
"Dabi Bird, now fly high in the sky and prepare for a war of attrition!!"
Not long after the start of the match, the experienced gym trainer Ah Su discovered the blind spot in the Leo Road battle, and the strategy of the match was changed to a tactic specific to Leo Road.
Although Leo Lu has already fully understood the characteristics of this tactic in the next five layers.
However, if the opponent is Ah Su, the power of this tactic has been substantially improved.
"Leo Road, now do [high-speed movement] on the ground, and then ...... Get ready and use [the] ......"
Ikki is almost in the groove now, although the expression on his face is still more or less subtle to the point of loneliness that is not easy to notice.
Leolu took advantage of the gap to look back at Kazuki, who had already strengthened his confidence, silently raised the corners of his mouth, and then shrugged helplessly when he looked at the big bird in the sky again.
"Use [that]? Excuse me, what is [that]?"
Ah Su didn't really understand the conversation between the two of them, but Kazuki wasn't stupid enough to tell his opponent about his secret weapon so easily.
“…… Wait a minute, you'll find out in a moment. ”
Although he only had a general understanding of the situation, Leo Lu found that the people in the Johto region didn't seem to care much about the Kanto regional alliance conventions, and except for a few people who were very keen on this matter and the players who were interested in participating, the ordinary people did not express much interest in the competitions in other regions.
And Azov is one such person—with just a few words of dialogue, Leolu already understands that he hasn't watched the Kanto region televised.
Leolu knew this and discussed with Ikki that he would save the glitter stone for a critical time to use to deliver a fatal blow.
"Finally, I can use that trick again!"
Leo Lu is happy now. The opponent in front of him is one of the few they have encountered who can have similar strength to him, so this means that he can finally let go of a fight.
Leolu's figure quickly disappeared above the field, leaving only a wisp of dust in its place.
"Wow, I didn't expect the opponent who came to challenge for the first time to have such strength, I really underestimated you......" Ah Su crossed his hands together, shrugged his shoulders towards Ikki, and said calmly to the big bird in the sky: "Hey, man, don't be merciful, this opponent is worth our best to defeat!"
Hearing these words, Ikki swallowed a breath of air with difficulty, his eyes quickly scanning the field, hoping to keep up with Leolu...... But of course this is not possible. As long as the opponent is still human, Leolu is 100% sure that the opponent will not even be able to keep up with the afterimage - in short, it will "disappear into thin air".
"Don't worry, at least...... You should also show some backbone and believe in yourself, I will cooperate with you as perfectly as possible!" Leo Lu knew that Ikki was already dazzled and couldn't see himself, but his speed was increasing instead of decreasing, "Don't worry, we won't lose~"
From the very beginning of this match, Leolu didn't think he was going to lose, but it was many times more fun than the previous five battles, so he was always fighting with great spirit.
"Hey, what a mistake, the opponent who fought for the first time seems to be a little too strong......" Ah Su shook his head, put his hands down from his chest, and naturally looked up at the eagle that was still hovering, and smiled slightly.
"As local trainers, we naturally can't slack off, Dabi Bird, let's use [that] too!"
Suddenly, Leolu heard a birdsong above him that resounded through the sky—meaningless, yet domineering. With this chirp, Leolu noticed that the bird's flight trajectory had changed slightly, but he had not yet determined what it was going to do.
"Leo Road, get out of the way!!"
Before Leo Lu could see what the doorway was, he heard Ikki behind him suddenly let out a very excited shout, which even made Leo Lu dazed for a moment, a little bit not convinced that Ikki would do this.
"Hurry!!"
Seeing that Leo Lu didn't react accordingly according to his thoughts, Ikki was anxious with beads of sweat on his head, and Leo Lu even wondered if his sweat would throw on his body.
To be honest, Leo couldn't figure out why Ikki had let him do this, but he quickly stopped the car as he said and headed towards the edge of the field closer to Ikki.
"Sa~"
Almost at the same time, Leolu felt a strong push from behind him, and the hurricane appeared as if out of thin air, grazing Leolu like a knife from right to left.
The pain was also transmitted from various parts of the body to the brain at the same time, and Leo Lu couldn't even control his body, and the forefoot he used to walk began to lift off the ground uncontrollably, and his body was lifted higher and higher by the updraft.
“……”
Leo lowered his body and began to adjust in the direction of the airflow, although the effect was not noticeable in this vortex of extremely fast-flowing air, but it was better than nothing.
"Leolu, jump up lightly and try to level your body in the airflow!"
Another order from Ikki was given, and Leolu had no way to get out of this predicament on his own, so he could only trust Ikki's judgment once again.
The situation on the field is always changing rapidly, and Leo knows that he can't fully grasp the whole situation, and Ikki's current judgment is worthy of Leolu's trust......
"Really...... It's too nonsense!"
Leo Lu said this, but his body still made corresponding movements honestly, and his body was propped up in a large shape, and he was suspended in the air.
Leaning forward slightly, Leo began to descend to the ground.
"Be careful!!"
Ikki, who was active in this game, gave instructions for the third time, which Leolu had never encountered. But there was no time for him to think about it, and a huge black shadow covered him behind him.
"Dabi Bird, just catch him like that!!"
"What!?" "No......"
Leolu looked back at the Tabito, who was still flying unaffected in the midst of such a violent storm, and couldn't figure out how he did it.
"There's nothing strange about that," Asu muttered, his eyes fixed on the field, "we have not only strength, but also backbone that no one can match, so no matter how incredible the battle is, it's not surprising!"
The big bird quickly grabbed the scarf around Leolu's neck with its two huge claws, and with a hard blow of its wings, it easily lifted Leo Lu off the ground.
"Yes...... Damn!"
Because of Tabi's tugging, the scarf was tightly wrapped around Leolu's neck, and it became very difficult to breathe for a moment, and it didn't take long for him to almost faint.
"No one has stipulated that the ultimate can't be used in the opening scene, right?"
Ah Su's tone was very relaxed, and there was a little disappointment, as if he was winning.
"Leolu, get ready!!"
Leolu suddenly saw a faint glow on his neck, and his body began to resonate subtly.
It was as if oxygen was pouring into the brain in an instant, and the mind quickly returned to normal. Time was not to be wasted, and he grabbed Tabito's claws with his backhand to make himself feel better.
Looking at his feet, Leolu's forehead was immediately covered with cold sweat, and his claws clenched even harder.
"Oh, it looks like we're all helpless~" Ah Su spread his hands and looked at the young trainer in front of him with a smile.
And Ikki just stared at the two elves that were getting taller and taller, and didn't pay attention to Ah Su's sigh at all.
"Heh......"
Ikki chuckled at this most inopportune time. Seeing this, Ah Su immediately put away his relaxed appearance and looked up into the air.
As a result, the pupils suddenly constricted.
"This ...... What the hell is going on!"
