What was the outcome of Chapter 40, Section 2?
"Back off! Stay away! Wait until they fall asleep!"
Now that the yawn has taken effect, it's Crimson who should be worried.
Green ordered a contraction of defenses, and all that was needed was to wait quietly.
At the edge of the field, Xia Ye and the other two, who had somehow climbed up a big tree, all yawned at the same time.
Yawning is contagious; even Xiaoyuan yawned.
I guess we're about to see who wins and who loses?
Can crimson be reversed?
Xia Ye secretly guessed what was going on, his eyes fixed on the arena.
To Qinglv and Xiaye's surprise, Chihong just stared at Wartortle in the arena and did not give any commands to Charmeleon.
Crimson's eerie silence made Green feel slightly uneasy.
A few seconds later, Charmeleon collapsed to the ground and fell asleep.
It's now!
Its emerald eyes narrowed, and the command came swiftly: "Warbot, use the Shattrath Fruit! Spin at high speed!"
The effect of the Shakya fruit is that it can speed up the release of a move once in a critical moment.
In reality, this means that Wartortle completes its energy mobilization in almost a second, retracts its body into its shell, and begins to spin.
Upon seeing this, Qinglu relaxed, revealing a triumphant smile.
Hmph, the reason we've kept the Buddha's fruit hidden until now is for this very moment!
The speed of the attack increased again, and even though Charizard woke up instantly, it was too late to react.
Crimson, this time, I won...
"Charmeleon, Ancient Power!"
The crimson command interrupted the green thoughts.
The Charizard, which had been lying on the ground, began to gather energy in its body, and suddenly opened its eyes!
Wartortle had already started spinning, while rock energy gathered above Charmeleon's head. With a push from its claws, it stood up.
The high-speed rotation reached its limit; only the sound of air being cut could be heard, and its trajectory was almost invisible.
At that moment, Charmeleon's attack materialized and shot out.
"boom!"
A huge plume of smoke rose up, and even standing on high ground, Natsuno couldn't see the situation inside the arena clearly.
A few seconds later, the smoke dissipated.
A faint but extremely tenacious flame appeared, and standing in the center was the Charizard.
Wartortle lay dead in front of Charmeleon, its eyes turning into circles.
The two are less than a hand's width apart, yet they feel incredibly far apart, just like a trainer.
Qinglu's expression froze, and her pupils contracted.
How is this possible? I lost to this guy again?
Natsuno, still holding the referee's hat, declared from the tree: "Wartorium is down and can't get up. The winners of this battle are Charmeleon and Red!"
Red stepped forward, fed Charmeleon a few Power Cubes, patted its head, and then took out a Poké Ball.
"Well done, Fire Dragon, come in and rest."
A flash of red light, and Crimson put away the Charmander.
Seeing that Qinglv was staring at him, Chihong patiently began to explain.
"I knew to bring tree berries during our first battle, so there's even less reason not to this time."
"It's a zero-sum game. I was prepared after your Squirtle yawned last time."
"Plus, as you just noticed, the synergy between me and the Fire Dragon after our special training has improved."
"Just take a tree fruit before falling to the ground, then pretend to fall asleep to lower the enemy's guard before launching a full-scale attack."
Natsuno, who had just climbed down from the tree, was speechless with emotion. He could only give the two of them a thumbs up.
This is a battle; you have to consider all factors. If you're not smart, don't even try. You'll end up being led around like a stray dog without even knowing what happened.
Upon hearing Crimson's words, Green felt even more wary of the monster he was fighting.
Despite having won all his battles against other trainers over the past three days, he still narrowly lost to his opponent this time.
He then expressed his frustration at his second defeat: "Do you still have any Pokémon? I want to have another battle with you."
Red took out another Poké Ball and released a Poliwag, but it shook its head repeatedly at Green.
"Yes, but I won't fight you today. Your Wartortle is lying on the ground unconscious. He needs treatment, and what you need to do is treat him as soon as possible."
"The Evergreen Forest is fraught with danger. If another battle breaks out, it will be difficult to leave the forest in time, regardless of whether you win or lose."
"A Pokémon that collapses and faints is in mortal danger if it does not receive timely treatment."
"I can't let this happen. You should pay more attention to your Pokémon."
"If you insist on fighting right now, then I concede defeat, and I hope you'll take your Wartortle to get it treated immediately."
Hearing Crimson's words, Green clenched her fists, staring at Crimson's serious expression, her eyes filled with resentment.
But he quickly calmed himself down, took out a Poké Ball, and put Wartortle away.
"You're very strong. I was too careless. Let's fight again next time we meet."
"Natsuno-nii, I'm leaving now."
After saying that, Qinglu walked quickly out of the forest without looking back.
Having just witnessed another exciting battle, Natsuno didn't have time to savor it properly before quickly collecting both Koya and Komaru into his goal.
He took out his phone and checked the location of the tracker with Chi Hong; it was already quite far from here.
The two quickly returned to the original intersection along the path that the kangaroo beast had just plowed.
There weren't many Pokémon on this road at the moment, since they had already witnessed the ferocious side of that Kangaskhan, which actually made things easier for the two of them.
While traveling, Natsuno glanced at the trees on both sides of the road and suddenly stopped.
They stopped in front of a fruit tree that had been torn off the ground, pulling Chi Hong along, and examined it carefully.
"The tree fruits have all been picked clean, no wonder that marsupial was berserk."
"But that's not right. The fruit trees here are very densely distributed, which should be enough to feed the Pokémon in the forest."
"I just checked this area and all the berries are bare. No wonder I haven't seen any Pokémon. They've all gone elsewhere to forage, haven't they?"
Red nodded: "So something must have happened in the forest, and Pikachu has been going to the market to steal tree fruits every day."
"Finding the pickup truck might give us a clue."
The two sprinted to the left again.
The fruit trees here are still very densely distributed, but just like on the right, not a single fruit is left.
However, the fruit trees on the left were all intact and had not been torn down by the maddened marsupial.
Occasionally, you can see a few green caterpillars nibbling on the leaves, making a rustling sound.
As the two ventured deeper, the nearby trees grew thicker, and they could occasionally hear faint noises coming from the vicinity—the presence of Pokémon.
However, most of them did not jump out to stop the two. Natsuno and Akane could feel themselves being stared at by different eyes, but when they looked over, they saw nothing.
The red dot on the phone screen remained motionless, indicating that the two were not far from the location of the tracker.
"Sizzle~"
"boom!"
The sound of electricity emanated from the location of the tracker, accompanied by a considerable vibration.
Natsuno and Akane simultaneously sped up and ran!
A dozen seconds later, as the sounds of battle intensified, the scene ahead came into view for the two.
Under a large tree, Pikachu stood blocking the way, on all fours, tail held high, its eyes fierce.
His opponent was a rhinoceros with a horned head, whose size was overwhelming for Pikachu.
Pickup was covered in wounds, and to make matters worse, the color of the electric cells on both sides looked much lighter, and the current was no longer visible.
Natsuno and Akane immediately realized that Pikachu's power was almost completely depleted and the situation was dangerous!
The one-horned rhinoceros roared and raised its two front hooves, concentrating its energy at the tips of its hooves.
The crimson pupils contracted, gathering ground-based energy—it was time to unleash a powerful stomp!
Given the current state of the pickup truck, it absolutely cannot withstand this attack!
"Danger!"
