Lily of the Valley, the central venue.

Looking at the entrance of the long athletes' passage in front of him, and the wide and flat field at the end of the passage, Aoyagi was slightly surprised.

When he learned from Sirona that the Four Heavenly Kings Challenge was still being held here, it was a bit of a surprise to be honest, after all, the Gaia Flame Cannon of the Metronometrian had wiped out the entire battle area from the planet at that time.

But when he came here and saw the site that had reappeared in view, Aoyagi couldn't help but admire the speed and completeness of the restoration project.

Combined with the astonishing large number of "Super Evolution Stones" sent by the Sinnoh Alliance last night, Aoyagi once again saw the meaning of "organization" and "strength in numbers".

It was at this time that a slightly familiar voice came from the opposite side.

"You have to take it easy this time, if you do it again, even if you mobilize all the manpower overnight to repair it, you can't complete it, and then you can only change to the cold outside to continue the next game, an old man of my age can't stand it."

Hearing this, Aoyagi raised his head to look at the other side, and then bowed slightly and said, "Ms. Kikuno." ”

Kikuno nodded, the corners of his mouth kept rising slightly, and said slowly: "Although I knew that you had great potential when I was there in Yamanashi before, I didn't expect to meet you so soon, and ......"

As he spoke, the smile on Kikuno's face slowly increased: "Obviously, when we met for the first time, we could only choose my second team to challenge, and then look at it now, it's really a terrible leap."

However, that's why you need to pay more attention to your external image.

Hearing this, Aoyagi naturally thought of some recent rumors about this competition.

The original serious King Challenge has changed dramatically this year...... He became the Four Heavenly Kings, and the Four Heavenly Kings became challengers.

Some people have even made some relevant identity swap posters and greetings.

Although this is probably the case from the actual situation known so far, there must be someone behind such a deliberate friction and topic of news.

"Those topics deliberately created by the news media for the sake of traffic and popularity, please don't take Ms. Kikuno to heart."

Kikuno smiled and shook his head: "Don't think of me as that kind of narrow-minded senior, what I really want to say is about you." ”

"Me?"

Aoyagi was a little surprised.

"That's right, the trainer with the legendary Ancient Pokémon has once again turned into a field breaker and destroyed the entire arena with a single blow!"

"Coming back?"

Aoyagi couldn't help but be a little speechless.

But last time it was because of the palace heir, and this time it was because of what?

"Don't worry, it's not the kind of negative news from last time, but you just won the championship of the Lily of the Valley Conference, and your popularity and popularity are at an absolute peak, and if someone asks you for trouble in this stall, it's asking for trouble."

Kikuno said as he spoke, and his words suddenly changed: "But what I want to tell you is that with the change of identity, many things that I didn't pay much attention to before have to be paid attention to.

"After all...... Now you have become a role model for many young rookie trainers, and the goal to chase.

"I don't know exactly why you got to where you are now, but according to your level, I think you will only stand higher and higher in the future, and go farther and farther, so you must build this consciousness as soon as possible."

Aoyagi was slightly stunned.

This scene is inexplicably a bit of Spider-Man's classic quotes.

With great power comes great responsibility?

However, as this feeling deepened, Aoyagi couldn't help but think of the champions who were not very responsible in the past generations of anime.

The champion of the Kanto and Johto regions, Ado, is keen on fighting crime, the champion of Toyogen is keen on digging stones, and his later successor, Mikoli, is also a part-time coordinator, and the Sinnoh champion Sirona Archaeology, the United champion Adek is rotten, and Carlos champion Karuni is an actor......

The one who is most in line with the identity and responsibility of a champion is the Garrell champion who is the strongest in airborne and regards Adu and other champions as stepping stones...... Dandi!

Give new trainers guidance and help them build up the qualities that a trainer should have, while focusing on improving their own strength, so that they can use more power to protect the Calur region.

To put it simply, this is a good trainer who you can be dissatisfied with his status as the best in the airborne, but you can't attack his character as a champion.

And now I am moving towards the same position.

In this way, it is indeed necessary to pay attention.

You can't criticize them for their lack of responsibility in these issues before, and then do something similar to them when you reach the same level.

"Ms. Kikuno, I see."

Kikuno nodded slowly when he heard this, and a relieved expression appeared on his face.

"But I'm telling you this, don't think you're going to be able to challenge for the title right now, I and they will do their best to keep you."

Aoyagi also laughed: "In order to be able to retire earlier, right?" ”

"Uh...... Hahaha! ”

Kikuno was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing.

But his expression soon became serious again: "Then, for the sake of my retirement, let's go all out, Four Heavenly Kings Challenge!"

……

"Good morning, ladies and gentlemen!"

The host Hoshino stepped on the high platform, and the sound quickly spread throughout the venue with the blessing of the loudspeaker, and the already extremely lively atmosphere gradually became more intense under his mobilization.

Aoyagi didn't have much interest in this official set, but walked through the athletes' passage when the players were notified to enter, and stood on top of this brand new field.

And the person who appeared opposite him was not Kikuno, but another person he knew.

Superpower is the king of heaven - Wu Song.

Seeing the very neat pink suit on the other party's body, as well as the obviously delicately groomed hairstyle on the top of his head, Aoyagi smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"The first one is you."

Hearing Aoyagi's words, the expression of Gomatsu, who was still smiling and greeting the audience, suddenly froze.

At this moment, even if he didn't use any superpowers to perceive, Wu Songguang relied on his instinct to have a very ominous premonition.

"Aoyagi, what are you...... What do you mean? ”

"I remember when I was at Wisdom Lake, you told me that if you needed your help with anything in the future, just ask, right?"

Aoyagi asked instead of answering.

Gomatsu nodded silently.

He did say that, and said that if he couldn't find anyone, he could contact the library in Shuimai City directly, and he would usually stay there if he was fine.

However, Aoyagi's strength improvement progress is too fast, and his strength has been surpassed by Aoyagi when he was in Wisdom Lake, and then there is no place and need to help at all.

Gomatsu also thought that Aoyagi had forgotten about it a long time ago, but he didn't expect the other party to remember.

However, what does it mean to suddenly bring it up at this time.

Do you want to throw in the towel?

It's impossible to think about this kind of thing, after all, this time it's not just him, it's about everyone in the Four Heavenly Kings.

Aoyagi naturally also noticed Gomatsu's demeanor, smiled and waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, you just have to fight with all your might, I won't let you do anything that makes you embarrassed like admitting defeat or abstaining." ”

Goku's brow furrowed even tighter.

"And what do you want me to help you?"

"I want to ...... Lets you send three Pokémon to fight at the same time. ”

"Huh?"

Wu Song didn't react for a while: "What do you mean?" Do you change the three-round match rule of one Pokémon per round to a three-on-three battle? ”

What?!

By installing around the venue, everyone at the scene heard the conversation between the two of them under the diffusion of camera microphones used to capture and transmit sound and images.

In the surrounding audience seats, guest seats, and the VIP area where the high-level leaders of the Sinnoh Alliance are located, there was an uproar for a moment.

While it's a bit of a fantasy to change the rules of the game at this time, it's not unheard of in the past, and it's possible as long as both parties agree and it doesn't have much impact on the final outcome.

But in the current situation, it's not that it won't have much impact.

How strong the individual strength of Aoyagi Pokémon is, everyone present has seen it for all to see.

One can defeat most or even the entire lineup of opponents, and if three of them appear at the same time, the effect of 1+1+1 is definitely greater than that of three.

It's hard to imagine what would happen if the three of them appeared at the same time.

After a short period of confusion just now, Wu Song couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Why did you suddenly think of doing this, don't you sincerely embarrass me if you really go on three against three......

"I think you're mistaken."

Aoyagi still maintained a friendly smile and said slowly: "It's not three against three, but Gomatsu you sent three Pokémon together at the same time, and I still use one Pokémon to fight." ”

Yes?!

As soon as these words came out, the audience, who was already in a state of bewilderment, was completely stunned.

Originally, I thought that Aoyagi would propose a three-on-three game rule in order to take advantage of a little advantage, but now the situation is completely different from what I imagined.

Let Gomatsu send three Pokémon at the same time, and Aoyagi is still one.

It's three to one!

Such a rule, which does no harm to oneself, actually came out of Aoyagi's mouth.

Didn't he know that if the change was successful, the entire Heavenly King Challenge would continue to enforce this rule until the end, resulting in four absolute disadvantage scenes of 3-on-1?

Even if Aoyagi's strength is indeed very strong, so strong that many people think that the Four Heavenly Kings will face him, even if it is a wheel battle, he will probably lose the game ugly in the end.

But if it is changed to three to one, the situation is ...... Maybe it's about to change completely.
