Chapter Eighty-Seven: Mental Hedging

The sun is scorching.

The quarter-finals slowly kicked off.

When Kashiwagi set off, almost all the quicksand team members who saw him were shouting at him, and there were countless people who shouted that they must win when they arrived at the Yellow Iron Arena.

He understands very well that a large part of this group of guys regards him as a cash cow for getting rich overnight.

I heard that many underground gambling houses deliberately adjusted their odds to the extreme in order to stir up the atmosphere and attract people to bet, attracting a large number of people to buy.

And behind these underground gambling houses happen to be the players in the current quarterfinals.

One or two are full of energy waiting to cut leeks today, every year there are fools who gamble until they are about to go bankrupt, and every year there are fools who continue to gamble.

Everyone is staring at the lucky one or two who got rich, hoping to replicate it in their own lives.

What survivor bias, I don't know at all.

Kashiwagi has no sympathy for these people and doesn't want to pity them, he only fights for himself, whether he wins or loses, he is worthy of himself, and if he is worthy of them, he can pull them more.

No matter how ugly the loss is, as long as you can fight until the last moment and don't give up, it is a victory!

"Shhhh

He took a slow, deep breath as he made his way through the rusty passageway, smashing through the white light that seemed to represent the road ahead, and rushing into the arena with a loud bang.

Today's opponent Minoru Yama is already in place, wearing a tracksuit, with a peaceful smile on his face, and his temperament is outstanding.

"We have invited our high-profile dark horse, the rising star of the quicksand team, and the expert on the following grams - Kashiwagi player!

The host's shouts clearly circled above the arena, causing a burst of cheers.

There's enough.

Kashiwagi tugged at the corners of his mouth, only feeling that the host was talking nonsense with his eyes open in order to guide the enthusiasm of the audience, what is the high-eyed and tomorrow's star.

It's very neon people's love to blow wildly.

Never mind.

Regardless of those.

Kashiwagi held the Poké Ball and put on a posture of waiting, waiting for the red light to be prepared.

Minoru Yama looked a little hesitant, and took out several Poké Balls in a row before deciding on the final selection. Judging from the pitch-black color, this person seems to have a luxurious ball in his hand.

"The competition is about to start, and both Kashiwagi and Minoru Yama are ready. Speaking of Minoru Yama, we have to mention his illustrious resume once again, as he is the same age as Kashiwagi and has already challenged in the three regional league competitions, and has won very good results each time. ”

The host, who was still enthusiastic and slow just now, suddenly changed his tone, as if he was introducing a certain big person, "Now that he has returned from other regions, he specially participated in our Huangtie Arena Battle Conference, just to test the strength of the trainers in Huangtie Town.

"I hope that all the players can compete at a high level in front of Minoru Yama! Race out of style! Let me introduce the special guest group who came all the way from silicon beryllium city......"

And then there's a long list of names.

The audience has long been accustomed to the fact that every time Minoru Yama competes, the host will deliberately say such a paragraph, as if chanting a mantra before the game.

According to the investigation of some well-intentioned people, this benevolent brother seems to have a very close relationship with the mayor, and it is rumored that the mayor of the town has warmly entertained Shanni, who has just arrived in Huangtie Town, which is extremely grand, like the scene of the annual review by the tax officials of Siberyllium.

From this point of view, Yama Minoru is indeed an existence that ordinary people can't provoke, so no one dares to target him for the time being.

Even the casino's odds have been adjusted to match their strength.

Kashiwagi is naturally aware of this.

But he cares more about the strength of the other party than about his background.

Drops –

The red light prompt that was prepared has finally arrived.

Kashiwagi took a deep breath, and when the green light came on, he lunged forward and threw the Poké Ball forward.

Bang!

The white light fell to the ground and turned into a small pink egg.

“lucky!”

Gilly ran forward, his expression slightly nervous.

It was the first time it had entered as a starter, but it was very clear how much of a bad start had on the whole situation.

You can't hold your companions back.

It thought to itself, looking into the distance, but the Pokémon released by its opponent made it stunned - it was not any Pokémon that Kashiwagi had shown it.

What's the situation? Is the tactics going to fail?

"Calm down, come as planned, release the Invisible Rock!"

Kashiwagi's voice reached the ears of Jili Dan, and the latter's originally restless mood suddenly calmed down a lot.

It raised its two small hands, causing countless earth, sand and dust to condense into rocks shrouded in white light, which scattered like raindrops all over the site, and then silently disappeared from its form.

During this time, Kashiwagi looked at the opponent's Pokémon-

A cute humanoid cat with blue and white hair and folded ears.

Suppress Pokémon, a super meow with superpower attributes.

This Pokémon was used by Minoru Yama for the first time, and it was not on the intelligence document that Flopo gave to Kashiwagi, so he had to change the predetermined tactics according to the situation on the spot.

"Reflection."

Yama Minoru looked at the disappearing invisible rocks around him, and didn't seem to care, and gave the order very firmly.

The running Super Meow's eyes suddenly lit up with blue light, and a pink barrier suddenly unfolded in front of her, and then quietly disappeared like an invisible rock.

Seeing this, Kashiwagi's heart sank slightly.

Both of his Pokémon are known for their physical attacks, and their special attacks are only a secondary means, although it is unclear how much physical attack can be reduced by this reflector, so it is not much lower.

It's so uncomfortable not to crack!

The two sides approached rapidly, and within a few moments, only ten meters were left.

And this distance is just enough for any ranged Pokémon to accept and think their move can hit.

Kashiwagi and Minoru Yama undoubtedly share the same thoughts.

"Mind Shift!"

"Mental Shock!"

At the same time, the order was given, and the two Pokémon also made a move at the same time.

A blue glow covered their eyes, and subtle fluctuations stirred the air forward.

Among them, the fluctuations of the auspicious eggs were invisible, and the fluctuations of the super meow turned into pink-purple shining balls of light visible to the naked eye, and flew towards the auspicious eggs frantically.

Two forces collided strongly at a certain central point!

Peng!

The bright light lit up like a flashbang, and the smoke and dust rose with it, engulfing a large area of the field in between breaths.

Kashiwagi was stunned.

The confrontation just now belonged to the confrontation between the two Pokémon in terms of spiritual power, and the [Mind Transfer] did not have the terrifying destructive power of [Spiritual Force].

Even if the will of the auspicious egg is not ordinary, it stands to reason that it is not so easy to match the [Spiritual Shock] as an attack move.

What's more, in Minoru Yamag's script all along, this kind of move attack often kills the opponent's Pokémon with a crushing nature......

Why?

Showing weakness? Or is it a Geely egg explosion?

Kashiwagi couldn't help but look at the auspicious egg in front of the writing oblique, as a trainer, he knew the latter's state, the auspicious egg was indeed a little active at this time, but it was far from the point of exploding.

He looked at the other side of the mountain, and saw that the latter had a rather surprised expression.

It's just that the look on that face then is not the annoyance of not being able to win the opponent with one blow, but the excitement of meeting the opponent in chess.

"One more mind shift!"

In a flash of thought, he decided to test Minoru Yama once.

Find out what the hell this guy is all about.
