Chapter 57 My son Shuwen has the potential to become a king!
Mark arrogantly took out a Poké Ball and released an equally arrogant Pokémon with a huge red comb on its head.
Orange-crowned lizard, no, it's a bandana thug.
A very typical Pokémon from the Unova region.
The girl with glasses took out her laptop and looked up Mark's information: "Mark is a bandana thug. The skin that peeled off his abdomen has amazing defensive capabilities, helping him to block many of his opponents' deadly moves."
"And the bandana thug's legs possess the terrifying power to kick a reinforced concrete pillar in half."
Mark exclaimed confidently, "Headscarf thug, crush him!"
The thug with the headscarf pulled up his pants, his teeth coated with dense dark-attribute energy, and swiftly charged towards Gallade.
Li Shuwen said calmly, "Splitting tiles."
Faced with the bandana-wearing thugs rushing at her, Gallade calmly extended her elbow blade.
The elbow blade traced a graceful arc, lightly brushing past the headscarf.
The hooded thug ran two more steps before suddenly collapsing to the ground.
Mark's eyes widened in disbelief, then he roared, "Headscarf thug, stand up!"
This is a hoodlum who has been tempered and refined by him, how could he be defeated by a single tile-splitting move?
The referee waved his flag, announcing, "The bandana-wearing thug is incapacitated; the winner is Gallade!"
The audience erupted in uproar, and the uncle excitedly waved his fist.
"Look! One-hit kill! Another one-hit kill!"
The girl with glasses frantically typed on the keyboard, "Mark's bandana thug is different from the previous Pokémon; it was KO'd in one hit by Gallade. This Gallade is so strong..."
The hedgehog-headed guy exclaimed with delight, "So cool! Gallade truly lives up to its reputation as the representative Pokémon of the Sinnoh region! One move, Brick Break, and Antelope Horn!"
The girl frantically shook her boyfriend's arm, "Baby, look, that Pokémon is so cool! Why don't you catch one too?"
The boy gave an awkward smile. "Okay, I'll go and subdue it later."
That's Gallade, an extremely rare Pokémon.
What merit or ability does he possess to possibly capture Gallade?
Mark gritted his teeth, looking at Gallade with a hint of apprehension in his eyes.
"Old man, you get up there."
The girl with glasses' eyes lit up. "According to the data, the Repairman is Mark's first Pokémon and the strongest. This battle won't be easy."
The uncle nodded in agreement, "You can tell from the old man's demeanor that he is a veteran who has been through many battles. Even if Gallade has a type advantage, it will not be easy to defeat him."
The spiky-haired guy scoffed, "Anyway, I'm confident Li Shuwen and Gallade will win!"
A murderous glint flashed in Mark's eyes. "Wild swings and punches!"
The old man's concrete pillar was also tainted with dark energy of malevolent nature, and his body spun wildly as he swung the pillar with tremendous force.
Like a tornado destroying a parking lot, it crashed down on Gallade.
"A spiritual blade!"
Gallade extended its elbow blade, which condensed into a purple spiritual energy blade.
The descendants arrive, the ancestors arrive, passing through the old man's arms in an instant.
The old man, unable to let go, sent the concrete pillar flying from his hands.
One of them crashed into the wall, while the other flew towards Li Shuwen.
Li Shuwen simply stood there, neither dodging nor avoiding.
Gallade's eyes glowed blue, stopping the two concrete pillars in mid-air.
Then it flew back to the old man who was repairing things and lay down next to him.
Li Shuwen smiled. "What do you think of the fighters in the Sinnoh region now?"
Mark's face was ashen; he couldn't believe that the old repairman had been killed in a single move.
"Hmph, I was careless this time. Next time I'll show you what I'm capable of!"
After uttering some harsh words, Mark made a humiliating exit amidst boos from the audience.
The referee waved his flag and announced, "The old man who is repairing the armor is unable to battle. The winner is Gallade."
The referee's eyes showed disdain, and he looked down on the Sinnoh fighters. As a result, this match was the one in which the referee made the fastest decision in the entire competition.
The middle-aged man's eyes widened. "Even the old repairman was defeated in one hit! Just how strong is this Gallade?!"
The girl with glasses pushed up her glasses, which then glowed white. "I feel like Gallade has the potential to be a Champion, what do you think, sir?"
The uncle nodded in agreement, "But I think not only Gallade has the potential to be a Champion, but this Li Shuwen has even more potential to be a Champion."
The man pointed to the concrete pillar and said, "I don't know if you noticed, but when the concrete pillar hit Li Shuwen, he stood still."
"It wasn't that he was too scared to move, but rather that he believed Gallade could stop the concrete pillar!"
"Just based on this trust in Pokémon, he's no ordinary person. It seems our Sinnoh region is about to have another Fighting King."
The spiky-haired guy's face lit up with surprise. "Then when he wins the championship, won't we be able to witness a clash of titans?"
The older man shook his head. "Compared to Cynthia, Li Shuwen seems much more inexperienced. However, this additional match may be the most exciting battle of this tournament."
"The trainers participating in the competition should not expect to beat Li Shuwen, but rather expect to last a few more moves against him."
The girl with glasses nodded in agreement, "Li Shuwen is indeed someone we can look forward to becoming a future fighting king."
The pink-haired uncle, who had abandoned the dojo to sneak off and watch the match, pushed up his sunglasses and chuckled foolishly.
My son has the talent of a heavenly king!
This isn't just him boasting; it's the consensus of the audience.
Back in the players' lounge, Incineroar jumped out again.
After two matches, Croagunk, Kommo-o, and Gallade all got a chance to play. Now it's his turn, right?
"Fine, you can go."
In fact, during last night's simulation, after escaping, the martial arts master played by Li Shuwen had already obtained the key points of using the Fist of Wrath from the abandoned monkey.
He personally experienced the Fist of Angry multiple times.
However, Primeape is fickle, and having just suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Gallade, it began to undergo basic training.
Before the fiery monkey realizes the necessity of basic training for its growth.
Li Shuwen did not intend to tell the Fiery Monkey how to cultivate the Fist of Wrath.
Aside from evolution, there are many other ways for Pokémon to grow.
Because Infernape possesses a rage talent far exceeding that of its peers, Li Shuwen has even higher expectations for it.
Unlike other Incineroars that are controlled by anger, Li Shuwen's Incineroar can control anger to a certain extent.
Primeape wants to become the world's strongest Fighting-type Pokémon.
Since we have such a goal, we must change our wrong ideas.
Anger alone will not make Primeape the world's number one fighting Pokémon.
The final result is more likely to be a case of talent fading away and a wasted potential, rather than a true success.
Li Shuwen looked at the fiery monkey seriously, "I can let you participate in the competition, but when you go back, you will have to carry weighted frog jumps and practice boxing."
"And the fighting skills I've asked you to train, you must practice each move fifty times. Can you do that?"
Looking at Li Shuwen's face, Fiery Monkey quickly suppressed his impatience.
Sensing the deep love and earnest criticism from Li Shuwen, Fiery Monkey raised his fist towards Li Shuwen.
"Jiajia!"
Li Shuwen also bumped fists with him, "Then it's a deal! As long as you, Fiery Monkey, complete the training I set, I will do my best to help you achieve your dream!"
Incineroar nodded firmly, its entire body engulfed in red flames.
"Add, add, add!"
Fiery Monkey vowed that he would not let Li Shuwen down.
