Chapter 540: The first show of the wheel ball
The one-eyed man was startled and was about to shout to warn but found that he could not make any sound. He looked down and saw four bloody holes appeared on his throat. The next second, the one-eyed man fell down slowly with horror and fear, and was completely dead.
The other three then noticed the situation of the "boss" and were about to take action angrily when they saw countless tentacles shooting out from the forest and piercing their bodies.
"Stinger jellyfish, kill them."
Following Yang Ming's order, the stinging jellyfish instantly sprayed out a poisonous bomb. The gangsters didn't even have time to scream before they were dissolved into a pool of blood in despair.
In just a few seconds, a group of perverted murderers who were roaming around Carlos disappeared.
While Yang Ming was collecting these people's Poké Balls, he was looking for something that could prove their identity among their remaining clothes.
"The Miare Gang, that's interesting."
…………
After breakfast the next day, the group embarked on a new journey.
"I slept so well at last," Xiaozhi stretched, "It seems that the so-called bad guys are just rumors, hahaha."
Yang Ming nodded and said, "Yes, even I, who was in charge of the night watch, didn't notice anything unusual. Maybe those townspeople were just scaring themselves?"
"By the way, there's actually something I've been wanting to do since yesterday," Xiaozhi suddenly said, "Mr. Qionggui, would you please have a Pokémon battle with me?"
"You want to compete with me?" Yang Ming was stunned.
Xiaozhi nodded and said, "Yes, I haven't competed with a trainer since I started traveling, so I would like to ask Mr. Qionggui to give me some advice so that I can understand the gap between myself and the veteran trainers."
"Okay." Yang Ming agreed to Xiaozhi's request after a moment's hesitation. Xiaozhi is just a rookie trainer now. Even if he will be very strong in the future, he is not good enough now. Considering that the Kalos region is not peaceful now, it is not a bad thing to hone him a little more.
"The rules of the game are one-on-one, and the Pokémon I'm going to use is this one," Yang Ming threw out a Poké Ball, "Come out, Wheel Ball."
The reason for sending Gyrocoppa to fight is, on the one hand, because the other Pokémon that Yang Ming currently carries can easily kill Ash's Pikachu in seconds, and Gyrocoppa is already the Pokémon with the smallest gap in strength with Ash.
On the other hand, because the wheel ball itself has never experienced actual combat, Yang Ming wants to take this opportunity to let it accumulate some combat experience.
Faced with the wheel ball that was over one meter in size, Xiaozhi did not show the slightest sign of fear. On the contrary, the fighting spirit in his eyes became even higher.
"Go ahead, Pikachu, we won't lose!"
"Pika~!" Pikachu also assumed a fighting stance and confronted an enemy that was much larger than himself.
"Let's start the attack first, Pikachu, use electric attack!"
"Hold on to this ball."
A colorful barrier formed around the wheel ball, easily neutralizing Pikachu's attack.
"Great, Pikachu, another electric shock!" Xiaozhi shouted. Pikachu once again released a powerful electric current, but this time the wheel ball did not use defense, but chose to forcibly withstand the attack.
Just as Xiaozhi and Pikachu were confused, the counterattack of the wheel ball officially began.
"Cartwheel, use piercing sound."
The purple armor of the wheel ball began to rub, raising a lot of dust. At the same time, the harsh sound produced by the friction attacked Pikachu like a sharp blade. Pikachu covered his ears in pain, his body trembled uncontrollably, and his attack rhythm was completely disrupted.
"Pikachu, cheer up!" Xiaozhi shouted anxiously. Pikachu endured the discomfort and tried to stabilize his body.
However, before it could recover, the next wave of attacks from the wheel ball arrived. It raised its spikes and rushed towards Pikachu like a high-speed rotating cannonball. With a scream, Pikachu was knocked away.
"Pica-!"
"Pikachu!" Xiaozhi shouted anxiously.
"The combination attack of the piercing sound and the poisonous tail is really useful. Once it evolves into the Centipede King, its combat effectiveness will surely be improved by leaps and bounds." Yang Ming thought to himself.
At this moment, Pikachu, who had been knocked away, stood up with difficulty.
"Pikachu!" Xiaozhi said happily.
"Good willpower," Yang Ming said calmly, "Wheelball, use your poisonous tail to give it the final blow."
However, at this moment, the movement of the wheel ball suddenly became much slower. At the same time, weak electric currents appeared on the wheel ball.
"Is it because of the paralysis caused by static electricity? I'm so unlucky." Yang Ming sighed in his heart.
Taking advantage of the paralysis of the Chakram, Pikachu quickly counterattacked. Electric currents shot out from its tail and attacked the Chakram.
"Wheel Ball, use Hold!"
However, Yang Ming was very unlucky this time. The wheel ball was paralyzed and could not move for a while. With no way to defend it, he was hit hard by Pikachu's electric shock!
"Good!" Xiaozhi raised his arms and cheered for Pikachu.
"Cartwheel, use Bug Bite!"
"Pikachu, lightning flashes!"
The wheel ball reacted quickly and counterattacked, but it was quickly avoided by the agile Pikachu and was knocked away by a flash of lightning.
However, Pikachu's weak physical attacks were obviously not enough to hurt the Wheel Ball, and soon the Wheel Ball attacked Pikachu again.
At the same time, as the acceleration characteristics continue to accelerate, the acceleration of the wheel ball has overwhelmed the deceleration side effect caused by paralysis, making its speed return to its original level or even higher.
"The last fight, wheel ball, poison tail!"
"Pikachu, use electric shock!"
The two Pokémon used their last bit of strength to fight each other to the last, but no matter how bad their luck was, Gyro was still stronger than Pikachu, so Pikachu got there first.
"Pikachu, cheer up!" Xiaozhi rushed to Pikachu and whispered to comfort him, "You have done a good job."
Then, he bowed to Yang Ming: "Thank you, Mr. Qiong Gui. Through this fight with you, I have realized the shortcomings of my current strength."
Yang Ming nodded and took back the wheel ball: "It's getting late, let's hurry to Miare City."
"Okay!" Xiaozhi responded on the spot.
Serena on the side also took out the medicine to treat Pikachu early. Since talking with Yang Ming last night, Serena seemed to have been inspired by something and became more considerate and gentle to Xiaozhi.
All of this naturally did not escape Yang Ming's eyes, but he did not want to reveal it, so he lowered his head and walked on in silence.
"It is said that Miare City is the most prosperous metropolis in the world. I really want to see how prosperous it is."
