Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Journey of a Thousand Miles Begins with Courage (Three in One)
Following.
The sun is shining.
The entire Silver City was still immersed in the fiery battle atmosphere.
Today is a day when Natsuhiko doesn't play.
So he sat in the box upstairs, while adjusting the state of the elves and doing some training with less impact.
At the same time, you can look out over the arena through the glass windows.
I still want to thank Daigo for spending money to upgrade the lounge.
Not only are the rooms big enough, but there are also several separate small rooms.
There is a lounge, a dining room, and a training room.
Natsuhiko now occupies a training room.
Mainly.
It is the control of the elves' energy and will.
By condensing the energy of the two moves of "Absolute Zero" and "Frozen Beam", Xia Yan gained a lot of inspiration.
For example, the Burning Worm can try to merge the other fire-based moves of the Fire of Life.
Another example is the Flame Monkey, which combines three moves with completely different attributes into a move similar to the "Sword of the Cliff".
The carapace fragments of the primordial Groudor that the Flame Monkey had once absorbed played a significant role.
Let the flame monkey's ability to control the energy of the fire system and the ground system have a lot of blessings.
It was a coincidence of all that.
Other elves can't learn it.
Xia Yan didn't think about letting all the elves learn this hand of the Flame Monkey.
But that doesn't mean there aren't places worth referencing.
What he wanted was for the Flame Monkey to teach everyone the ability to enter a state of absolute concentration, to teach what it was like to enter a state of "enthusiasm".
This.
At present, among Xia Yan's elves, only the Flame Monkey can do it.
In fact, Xia Yan knows that there are also moves such as "reverse scale", "rolling", "petal dance", and "ice hockey", which can also make the elves have a high probability of entering the state of "enthusiasm".
Merely.
In the end, what is required for the "zealous" state is the absolute concentration of the elves, the enthusiasm for a move.
Since it's a state.
That can naturally be imitated and learned.
But the trick is crucial.
Pity.
The Flame Monkey also knows little about the state of "enthusiasm", and all it can teach is what it felt at the time.
At this time, the flame monkey is like a little teacher.
The elves below sat in rows, listening attentively one by one.
It's just that this "concentration" is talking about individual elves.
For example, the big needle bee, Hudi, and the shield sword monster.
There are also some less serious.
It's like Porkis.
Although he looks like he is standing on the ground obediently.
But a pair of small eyes are dripping and looking around.
I didn't listen well when I saw it.
Every time Xia Yan's gaze passed, he pretended to be very serious, and nodded in agreement from time to time.
I don't know what it's approving of.
There are also small six-tails.
Six snow-white tails dangled from the back of the head to the front.
Actually, Xia Yan knows.
The six-tailed hair is unusually shiny, and when combined, it can form a small mirror.
It's sneakily looking in the mirror and tidying up its bangs.
This little guy who loves beauty.
The naughtiest.
It's fairy Eevee.
It lay on the ground, as if it was serious, and its limbs were neatly arranged.
But in fact, its nimble and active silk flicked from time to time, and its head was also shortened at the right time, and the streamers were lowered over the corners of its mouth.
After that, it was accompanied by the quiet agitation of the mouth.
It's stealing energy cubes.
Looking at the small movements of these little guys, Xia Yan didn't mean to debunk it, he just felt funny.
I just think back to the things I did when I was in class and thought no one knew.
In fact, the teachers standing on the stage were all clear, but they were too lazy to say it.
Now see this scene in these little ones.
I just feel a little warm, with a little memory.
He wasn't in a hurry anyway.
When most of the elves have mastered absolute concentration, the little ones like Pokkiss will not be able to bear it.
They're naughty, but they're also smart enough.
Even if you exert your strength in the later stage, you can catch up with other elves.
It was the seriousness of Ladios and Zoroa that surprised Xia Yan a little.
"Swift Dragon, Dragon Swoop!"
On the field, he looked handsome, his face was full of confidence, and he shook his cloak with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
The fat but not slow dragon fell rapidly from the sky, covered in surging and rich dragon energy, giving the opponent's strange power a fatal blow.
"Bane's six elves are all incapacitated! So the winner is a ferry rider from the Kanto area——!! ”
Immediately after, cheers erupted.
The cloak flicked again, bowing slightly.
"Alas, it's another handicap that won easily."
Xia Yan smashed his mouth and shook his head secretly.
The opponent's strength is not enough, and he didn't force out how much he was hiding at all.
Completely with absolute strength, it was crushed.
Natsuhiko recalled in his mind the battle of Daigo not long ago.
The posture is more elegant than Wataru, and the result of the battle is not too much of a surprise, but Daigo has won a lot of cheers.
"Isn't it really what I expected?"
The thoughts in Xia Yan's heart became more and more intense.
Crossing a few, what I got in my hands was definitely the script of "simple mode".
And what he got is most likely a script for "hard mode" or even "hell mode".
"Whether it's or not, it depends on who the opponent is in the next game."
Looking at the crossing who stood on the field, enjoying the cheers and not going down for a long time, Xia Yan no longer concealed it this time and shook his head again.
"I wouldn't have given him a cloak if I knew I wouldn't have given him, this showy guy."
Speaking of which.
It seems that the top strength of the strong man has more or less some problems.
Wataru likes to be in the limelight, especially when he puts on a cape.
The last time Xia Yan went to the Dragon Clan, he heard that there was a whole cabinet cloak in the cabinet in the ferry room.
And the styles are all the same.
It's the one Xia Yan gave him at the beginning.
The only difference is that the material is better.
And under Kona's appearance that seems to be the royal sister Fan, there is actually a girl's heart hidden.
I like dolls and comics the most, especially those that tell about sweet love.
On the cover of her intelligence-gathering booklet, there is a cute Eevee sticker.
Not to mention Daigo.
The dignified German company is a small proprietor and likes to collect stones.
Hiba loves angry steamed buns.
Kikuko loves Oki ...... Cough...... This can only be thought, not said.
Sirona loves ......
Xia Yan shook his head quickly.
Get rid of divergent thinking in your head.
"Ahem! Pokkiss, Fairy Eevee, Six Tails, listen well! ”
"Chakkota~~" Pokkiss stuck out his little tongue.
"Bu Te ~~"
Fairy Eevee hurriedly covered her mouth and nodded repeatedly.
The little six tails flicked their tails, scattered some ice crystals, and had a straight expression, looking very serious.
See them like this.
Xia Yan couldn't help but laugh again.
...
...
Another day passed.
The seventh day of the Elven League World Masters Championship.
The third round of the competition.
It's finally in full swing.
The competition scene was lively and full.
Looking at his opponent displayed on the big screen, Xia Yan's expression was dull.
The rest of the people also cast "pity" looks.
Daigo patted Natsuhiko on the shoulder.
"Condolences."
Kona closed the book, pursed her lips, and cast a sympathetic look at Natsuhiko.
"That...... Senior Xia Yan, I'm sure you can. ”
Sirona, who was sitting on the sofa, bent the corners of her mouth, lowered her overlapping legs, and covered her mouth to reveal a little smile.
"It's not like there's no chance."
Only crossed, with a look of "pity".
"Xia Yan, I won't fail to meet you, will I?"
"Get out!"
Xia Yan gave him a punch directly in anger.
His eyes swept over the crowd.
"Okay, just laugh if you want, I won't eat you again."
The next second.
"Hahaha-"
Cheers rang out from inside this luxurious box.
Fortunately.
The sound insulation of the box is good enough that people outside can't hear it.
Otherwise, I thought something funny was happening in this box.
Listening to their wanton laughter, Xia Yan twitched the corners of his mouth.
He looked at the big screen in the sky as if he had confirmed it again.
Next to his handsome avatar, after the letter "VS", there was an ordinary-looking face that was almost indistinguishable when thrown into the crowd.
Despite this, Xia Yan and the others knew this person.
It was not too thick hair, a warm and sunny smile, and a resolute look.
Isn't it the owner of the Orange Flower Road Museum in Orange Hua City, Hoenn Region, thousands of miles!
That gentle man, if he wants, can replace anyone in the Hoenn region at any time except Genji Heavenly King.
Qianli's strength, even in the circle of the Four Heavenly Kings, is famous.
If he hadn't taken care of his family too much, it is estimated that he would have a chance to sprint to the championship.
Reputedly.
At the beginning, the president of the Hoenn Alliance found Guo Qianli more than once and motioned him to compete for the Four Heavenly Kings.
And Genji is old, and although Bonnie and Kazuki are also good, they are still a little worse than Chiribi.
So Chisato is currently the one with the best chance of competing for the Hoenn title.
Pity.
Each time, he was rejected by Chisato.
However, although he takes care of his family, it doesn't mean that he is not strong.
He was known as "the man who sought great power".
But it is only the pursuit of power, not power, fame, and wealth.
is a very pure person.
Chisato has his own unique insights and excellent training methods in training general elves.
Reputedly.
He has a Leave King who is not affected by the "Lazy" trait.
That was his trump card and one of the main reasons why Hoenn felt he had a chance to compete for the title.
This one, like Xia Yan, will be able to ride the Lie Empty Seat in the future.
Although this world is a combination of anime, specials, and theatrical versions, Xia Yan doesn't know how strong Chisato is, but it's definitely not weak.
But with the current timeline.
Even if Chisato is very strong, it will not make Xia Yan unable to deal with it...... bar.
Glancing at the big screen again.
In the third round, the round of 64 will be decided, and there are still two games away from President Igor's minimum goal of the top 32.
Well, probably worse.
How can so many people participate in a Masters?
The point is.
Why is he such an opponent every time?
The whole person is a little bit not good.
Watching Gomatsu win the game with ease, Xia Yan walked out of the lounge with a sad face.
But when he just walked out of the lounge, he saw Chisato waiting for him outside.
Xia Yan quickly adjusted his state.
"Mr. Chisato."
It's not that he thinks he's going to lose, but he thinks that there may be some hole cards that can't be hidden, and it's a bit unpleasant to cross them to still be hidden.
As for the winner or loser, that will only be known until the fight.
"Xia Yan, together?"
Chisato said with a smile, the smile was pure.
"Okay."
The two walked in the direction of the player's passage.
"Mr. Chisato, it seems to be in a good mood."
Xia Yan looked at the smile that Chisato had been wearing on his face and couldn't help but ask.
"Hahahaha-is it obvious?"
Chisato scratched at the back of his head.
Xia Yan gave a "what do you say" look.
"Okay. Just now two of my little ghosts called me and said they saw my game on TV and were surprised and proud. Chisato said truthfully.
The joy of a successful man is as simple as that.
Making his wife and children happy and proud may be his greatest happiness.
Xia Yan was also infected by his smile and said sincerely:
"Then Mr. Chisato has to give it his all this time, I won't let you win easily."
Hear the words.
Chisato's expression also became a little serious.
looked at Xia Yan seriously and said solemnly:
"Of course, it's the greatest respect for the opponent. Originally, I was worried that Natsuhiko you would not be in good shape after two battles that consumed a lot of money in a row, but now it seems that I am too careful, and I will definitely fight with all my might. ”
Xia Yan's expression froze.
I almost couldn't help but give myself a big mouth.
It's okay, what are you doing with so many politeness?
Originally, Chisato may still have the posture of releasing water.
It's good now......
The water was blocked by Natsuhiko himself.
Chisato continued to speak, with an embarrassed expression.
"Actually, Xia Yan, I came to you for another matter."
"Huh?"
Seeing that Qianli's expression became more and more helpless, he said bluntly:
"Those two imps in my family are all fans of yours. I know that my opponent in this round is you, so I hope I can ask you for an autograph. ”
Natsuhiko: "..."
Xiao Yao and Xiao Sheng?
In the future, Xiao Yao, who is known as the "Hoenn Dancing Queen", and Xiao Sheng, who is quite talented as a researcher?
Xia Yan is still a little unclear now, is Qianli's son and daughter Xiaoyao Xiaosheng, Xiaoyou Xiaoyao, or Lubi?
But it doesn't matter.
"Wait until the battle is over, right?" Xia Yan said.
At the same time, he thought viciously in his heart: 'Damn, I won't give anything if I lose, the ledger, the faucet stick....... No, if you lose, you won't give an autograph! ’
"Of course."
The two separated.
Walk to their respective athletes' lanes.
Not much.
Under the guidance of the host, the audience stood on the battlefield in the cheers.
For Xia Yan, even some people who were not very familiar with Xia Yan already knew him.
The man who pierced the defensive barrier.
His fight was very exciting.
And Qianli became famous earlier, although his reputation is not obvious, but the previous two rounds of the competition, he also won very simply, and many people remember him.
...
Orange Hua City, Distant Hoenn Region.
"Sister! Mom! Come and see! Dad is on TV again, and the opponent is still Xia Yantianwang! ”
The milky Xiao Sheng shouted loudly.
Although he is young, he is very precocious, and he can't be treated as an ordinary child.
"It's coming, it's coming!"
Xiao Yao hurriedly ran to the TV, and when she saw the two figures on the TV, she couldn't help but smile excitedly.
on TV.
One is her father and the other is her idol.
It's like chasing stars successfully, how can you not be excited?
Although it is his father who chases stars on behalf of his daughter.
But it's about the same.
The gentle Mitsuko wiped the water stains on her white hands with her apron and walked over with a smile.
Looking at her husband's appearance on TV, her smile couldn't help but be a little sweeter.
"Sister, who do you think will win?" Curious baby Xiaosheng asked with a wink.
"Xia Yan Heavenly King!"
Xiao Yao didn't even want to blurt out, and sold her father directly.
Hearing this, Xiao Sheng's mouth puffed.
Although he also likes Xia Yan very much.
But for him, his father is the strongest man in his mind, and he won't be happy to watch his father lose.
"Mom, what do you think?"
Mitsuko's smile remained unchanged, and after thinking about it for a while, she hesitated, "It should be...... It's your dad. ”
"Should?" The clever Katsu keenly captured the word.
"Stupid." Xiao Yao couldn't help but rub her brother's head, "Have you forgotten what time it is?" ”
"It's ...... now" Xiao Sheng was reminded by Xiao Yao, and he suddenly reacted and jumped up from the sofa, "Yes, it's the breeding season of the Leave King, so Dad he ......."
Chisato's not lazy leave king is his trump card, and his strength is very terrifying, which most top trainers know.
But cultivating such a leave king was also cultivated by Qianli under many coincidences.
He's always wanted a replica.
The best way to do this is to choose from among the descendants of the king who took leave.
Therefore, during the breeding season, Chisato generally does not use the Leave King, trying to reserve more energy for it to reproduce.
This is also one of the reasons why he does not compete for the Four Heavenly Kings or even the championship.
Compared to these positions, he wanted to study the cultivation method of the disadvantages of the elven trait of the Leave King.
"I've brought it, but I don't know if he'll use it." Mitsuko said.
Xiao Sheng sat back in his seat abruptly, staring at the screen tightly.
Will Dad use it?
I don't know why, Xiao Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief after knowing the news.
If this caused Chisato to lose to Natsuhiko, he seemed to be so difficult to accept.
After all.
He's also a fan of Natsuhiko.
...
...
"Please summon the elves on both sides!"
At the referee's instructions, Xia Yan and Chisato need to summon elves according to the rules.
Speaking of which, Xia Yan noticed that the elf under the referee was no longer the fire-breathing dragon before, but was replaced by a shield sword monster.
Just like the future World Championships in the Galel region.
It's just that the last time I rode was Charizard.
Xia Yan also paid too much attention to this detail, and he needed to focus all his attention on this competition.
The pressure that Chisato put on him is no less than that of Wataru, Daigo, and Sirona.
And this time, the one who took the lead in summoning the elves was finally not in Natsuhiko, but Chisato on the other side.
After stepping onto the battlefield, Chisato's expression also became very serious and serious.
He lowered his head and groaned slightly, then threw out his first Poké Ball.
Red light.
In front of Chisato was an elf similar to a baboon and a gorilla, but instead of standing, it was lying on its side on the ground, with one hand against its head, looking lazy, and even yawning leisurely, with two tears squeezing out of the corners of its eyes.
Here it comes.
A thousand miles of signboards, please leave the king!
Although it looks lazy and relaxed, the pressure on Xia Yan is not small at all.
Especially when the eyes of the Leave King swept over Xia Yan intentionally or unintentionally, Xia Yan could clearly feel a lot of oppression.
And this leave king gives Xia Yan the feeling ......
Heavenly King.
Although it is not an ordinary Heavenly King level, at least it is the kind of Heavenly King level that is only one or two steps away from the crown.
But as long as you think of the characteristics of Qianli, the Leave King, who will not be affected by "laziness", and considering that the Leave King does not belong to the race value of the Divine Beast, if it fully explodes, its strength will really not be weaker than the average champion-level elf.
And that's just a thousand miles at this point in time.
In another year or two, or three or four years.
Once this Leave King becomes a champion-level elf, it will completely explode.......
It's not like I don't have the opportunity to wrestle with Groudador.
Xia Yan's expression became more and more serious.
The Qianli in front of him was definitely the strongest opponent he had fought so far.
"Heavenly King Xia Yan, it's your turn."
The referee saw that Xia Yan was unmoved and reminded.
Xia Yan took a deep breath and threw out two Poke Balls in succession.
The first to bear the brunt is naturally his big needle bee.
The strength of the big needle bee is not weak now, and it is sprinting towards the championship level, which may be a little worse than the leave king of Qianli, but with its extremely fast speed, it is not completely without the opportunity to break his wrist.
The second is just Hudi.
This is the absolute core of Natsuhiko.
The elves of Qianli are all ordinary elves, and Xia Yan doesn't know what tactical system he uses.
But it's all general elves, and the lineup is definitely not easy to build a system.
This time, he may have to start from a tactical point of view to have a higher chance of winning.
Seeing the leave king opposite, the expressions of the big needle bee and Hu Di also became serious.
This leave king is also the strongest elf they have encountered since participating in this Masters.
And the leave king of Qianli opposite, after seeing Xia Yan's big needle bee and Hu Di, especially when he saw the big needle bee, the lazy expression on his face gradually disappeared.
It sat up slowly, lying on the ground.
Changed to a reclining position with one hand on the knee.
Between the eyebrows, a bit of seriousness was revealed.
Qianli noticed the state of the leave king, and understood that it was the leave king who felt the pressure from the big needle bee and Hu Di.
He was happy in his heart.
felt that this kind of battle was what he wanted.
Two spirits were then summoned.
It resembles a dinosaur on the outside, but it has a nursery pouch on its belly, and a small light purple creature sticks out of it with a curious head.
"Boss" Thysupial! (Note 1)
Seeing the marsupial beast, Natsuhiko was glad that he hadn't announced the super evolution.
If Chisato can make his marsupial beast super evolve in this battle, it will really be difficult to fight.
The Super Bag Beast with the "Personal Love" trait, with the move of "Enhancement Punch", dominates the sixth generation!
The other, on the other hand, is a nimble and active ape elf, covered in white hair.
Overactive ape!
The former form of the Leave King.
There is only one characteristic, "motivation", which is completely contrary to the "laziness" of the king of leave.
In fact, for many trainers who have elves like hyperactive apes, they generally don't let hyperactive apes evolve into leave kings.
Although evolution is tempting, and the race value of the Leave King is too good, the disadvantages of the "lazy" trait are too great.
And although this superactive ape of Qianli has not evolved, it also has the strength of a heavenly king.
The deterrent effect is not small.
'Three physical attack elves? ’
Xia Yan lowered his head and pondered slightly.
Throw the Poké Ball.
In front of him were Pokkiss and the Shield Swordman.
The ghost-based Shield Sword Monster can be immune to general moves to a certain extent, and the Shield Sword Monster is the strongest defensive among Xia Yan's elves, so there will be a lot of room to play.
And Porkies.
There's a good chance that its control will have an unexpected effect.
And none of the three elves of Qianli can fly, which also gives Pokkis a lot of opportunities to perform.
But seeing Xia Yan's three or four hands, Chisato smiled.
Summons two elves again.
——!!
A loud and high-pitched roar, a wind.
Muk Hawk!
and a raccoon-like elf with a slender body and a streamlined whole, covered with light brown hair mixed with a few dark brown lines.
Straight to the bear!
These two are also considered to be the most iconic elves of thousands of miles.
In the special, the first person to fight with Liekong is his Muk Hawk.
And do not allow yourself to completely lose air supremacy.
And his straight rush to the bear once became a nightmare for many game parties.
As soon as the "belly drum" opened, it was directly pushed horizontally with speed.
To this point.
Xia Yan had nothing to hesitate about.
His last two were Ladios and the Flame Monkey.
Six first-echelon elves, neatly and neatly.
After glancing at Xia Yan's elf again, the last elf of Qianli was also about to come out.
Red light.
A mighty buffalo that looked very muscular appeared in the field.
Exploding head buffalo!
Looking at the thousands of miles on the opposite side, this slip is generally a strong attack elf.
Xia Yan couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.
He was absolutely convinced that Chisato had studied him well.
And read a lot of comments from so-called "experts" on the Internet.
If you beat him Xia Yan, you have to rush to attack and then take it away in waves.
These six elves, any one of them, can be used as the main attacker of the team.
And those who can also put on this posture will only see the transition.
Maybe.
Wataru can have a good chat with Chisato, and the two can definitely have a common topic.
"Please choose a replacement elf."
Chisato raised his hand to show that he had given up.
But Xia Yan moved.
He pulls out the Poké Ball.
Under everyone's surprised gaze, he took back the flame monkey that had shined in the last game.
The explosive power of the Flame Monkey is not weak after entering the absolute concentration.
But in the face of Qianli's lineup, it would be too irrational to go head-to-head with him.
So after Xia Yan took back the Flame Monkey, it was ...... who replaced him.
"Barua ——!!"
With a high-pitched dragon roar, the huge dragon Baruto appeared in the middle of the field.
The shimmering scales take on a brilliant color when exposed to sunlight.
The ensuing momentum also made Chisabi's elven expression become serious.
Especially the one who took leave.
It had been sitting still, but it had already stood up.
Frowning, he stared at Doron Barruto.
This replaces an elf.
The battle became more and more interesting in an instant.
This Duolong Baruto, in terms of level alone, is probably even higher than his Leave King.
But level is not an indication of strength.
Which is stronger and which is weak, you will only know after fighting.
...
"Doronbaruto!"
Lounge.
Emperor Dan exclaimed in surprise when he saw the multidragon baruto summoned by Xia Yan, his eyes burning.
"Xia Yan's pressure is not small." Wataru smashed his mouth and couldn't help but say.
"The other party, but 'a journey of a thousand miles begins with courage'."
Also as a Hoenn person.
Daigo knows best how special Chisato's identity is in the Hoenn region.
Kona and Sirona, who were next to her, also sat upright.
Or rather, everyone in the lounge was serious.
Natsuhiko summons Doron Baruto for the first time in a tournament.
What kind of backhand he is hiding, everyone is looking forward to.
Chisato has an obvious advantage, and his elves are stronger overall.
Almost every one of them is the best of the Heavenly King level, and there are no obvious weaknesses.
And among Xia Yan's elves, although there are a few elves who are not weak, on the whole, they are still weak compared to Qianli.
He should have to start from a tactical point of view to increase his chances of winning.
The thousand-mile tactics that have been famous for a long time will not be weak either.
Will Xia Yan be able to seize the advantage in this regard?
...
"The battle begins!"
The referee stepped on the shield sword monster and rose into the air, and the flag in his hand fell to the ground.
"Straight to the bear, belly bulge, speed!"
Really.
When you come up for a thousand miles, you will attack, and it is still an unreasonable attack.
——————
ps: I like the person Qianli, so I'm a little long-winded, and I'm going to talk about it in detail, this chapter is 7.5k, and I'll finish this one today~~
------Off topic------
Note 1: The reason why the marsupial beast is called "Boss" is because when the sixth generation of MEGA first came out, the "personal love" feature was too perverted, and the friends who played the battle at the beginning should know that at that time, it was either the bag **, or it was joined, although the "personal love" was weakened later, but the UB was still very high. At the same time, this is also the boss of a female elf who is a mother.
