Chapter 930: Is This Really Eevee?!_1
In the Wave-guide showdown... President Wen's Lucario, lost by a notch??
This result made everyone's eyes widen in disbelief.
At the same time, some people recalled the words Fang Yuan had just said.
From the World Tree, from the origin of Psionics... he is the Guardian of the World Tree, how could he not possess Aura?
At least, He Xiaomai does have Aura.
So, it wouldn't be strange if Fang Yuan possessed Aura as well.
Yes, it dawned on people that Fang Yuan could indeed possess the power of Aura.
This is a power even more mysterious and rare than Superpower.
"If he has Aura, the credibility of 'the strongest trainer' is even higher..."
Mǎotù murmured; in the hundred years of the Trainer Domain's development, trainers with special powers were exceptionally strong.
Such a person becoming the strongest didn't seem strange at all.
They all showed envious expressions, damn it, why didn't they have special powers??
...
"Okah!!"
On the battlefield, after being pushed back by the combined guiding wave of Fang Yuan and Eevee, Lucario's eyes filled with a fighting spirit.
And President Wen, feeling Lucario's battle intent, was startled and then burst into laughter.
"In that case, Lucario, use Wave-guide Missile!!" President Wen swung his large arm as if he had become years younger, and commanded.
Wave-guide Missile!!!
A move that could lock onto the opponent's Aura and almost certainly hit, and upon the command, Lucario raised its right arm, instantly forming a basketball-sized enhanced Wave-guide Missile in its palm.
Boom!!
The next second, the sky-blue Wave-guide Missile, like a beam of light, shot straight at Eevee.
"Block it."
Fang Yuan's order was almost simultaneous with President Wen's command; Eevee faced the Wave-guide Missile without any change in expression. The Wave-guide Missile was indeed hard to dodge, but why bother dodging?
"Bwoo!!"
While Lucario used its palm, Eevee used its tail, and almost like Lucario, in an instant, a basketball-sized light orb also formed at Eevee's tail.
This light orb was sky-blue the moment it appeared. However, unlike the Fighting Type's Wave-guide Missile, it was a Psychic Type Psychic Orb.
Considering a head-on collision with Aura, Psychic was the best choice.
However, that wasn't all; Eevee's Psychic Orb was only sky-blue in the moment of condensing. It was hard to notice because in the next instant, a shade of orange-red began to envelop the entire Psychic Orb.
With Solar Energy fused into Mental Power, it formed a scorching Psychic energy, and under the influence of Mental Power, the orange-red Psychic Orb, like a sun ball, began spinning at high speed, resembling a mini Sun Storm.
Boom!!!
Eevee flicked its body, and the Psychic Orb collided with the Wave-guide Missile. The orange-red flash and azure blue flash collided in midair for a moment, and the next second, both energy balls exploded at the same time. During the explosion, Lucario's Aura was devoured, while Eevee's Psychic Orb brought about a sweep of residual impact, erupting again with a terrifying Heat Wave, blowing towards Lucario.
"Oka!!"
Lucario, feeling the heat, instantly narrowed its pupils and quickly retreated.
The other Twelve Branches and Senior Future Sister also wore incredulous expressions. This was not about blocking.
It was clearly a move that crushed the opponent and then powered through.
Holy shit, and this Eevee, how can it use Confusion??
Putting aside that it can use it, which might be chalked up to an awakened talent, but what the hell is the orange-red Confusion that can spit out Heat Wave??
Could it be that this Eevee really possesses Guardian God Level combat power??
Everyone's expressions were extremely shocked.
"Chaotic Bone Bat Attacks!!" Although President Wen was also shocked that Eevee's power in the collision of moves had overpowered Lucario, he did not dare to divide his attention too much and quickly gave the order.
The next second, Lucario's right hand condensed a yellow-brown Bone Club.
A Ground Type Technique, Chaotic Bone Bat Attacks!
Fang Yuan had Eevee use a Superpower set move that restrained the Fighting Type, combined with Pyro Power that restrained the Steel Series, to attack Lucario.
President Wen also counterattacked with the Ground Series Power that restrained the fiery heat wave formed by the absorption of Solar Energy.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!
Lucario and their team didn't attack with Bone Club directly; instead, they held the Bone Club with both hands and swiftly rotated it in front of them. The next second, under the spinning Bone Club, a storm of sand and dust rose up, forming a Hurricane and directly blowing against the Heat Wave.
The next moment, Lucario's gaze became sharp as it activated its Aura, Locking On to Eevee's position. Without waiting for President Wen's command, Lucario stomped the ground with Extreme Speed, and in the other hand, it also condensed another Bone Club.
Holding the double Bone Clubs, Lucario took advantage of the moment when Sun Fire and the Ground-based energy storm collided to create residual waves, repositioning itself beside Eevee. With both Bone Clubs, Lucario forcefully smashed them down towards Eevee.
While the Twelve Branches had their attention drawn by the collision of the storm, Lucario had already disappeared. By the time they came to their senses and saw Lucario again, their expressions were frozen in shock.
Above them, the image of Lucario crossing the Bone Clubs to smash down had frozen in place.
Because at that moment, including Bone Club and Lucario itself, they had all been frozen into ice sculptures.
Within Lucario's attack range, Eevee stood calmly on the spot, with frost spreading out for several meters from its feet. Part of it formed an ice wall to block the residual waves of the storm's collision, while the rest spread out, sweeping into the upper air and colliding with Lucario's Bone Club.
An Ice Series Partner Technique, Frost Freeze was activated.
Eevee's partner's Premonition ability, although not as strong as Sun Eevee's, was still formidable; Lucario's actions had naturally been anticipated early on.
Chaotic Bone Bat Attacks?
Sorry, I have Ice-based Spells too, which counter Ground Type Techniques.
The frost directly froze the Bone Club and, along with it, froze Lucario!
However, although it countered Ground Type Techniques, Lucario, being of both the Fighting and Steel Series, had decent Ice resistance.
"Bwoo!!" Eevee turned its head instantly, and although Lucario had shattered the frost with its Physical Strength, that little time allowed Eevee to do far too much. When Lucario broke out of the ice and regained awareness, Eevee had already leaped up and reappeared at its side.
Enveloped in orange-red flames, Eevee, using the Fire Type Partner Skill Blazing Flame, exerted all its power, accelerated itself with Superpower, and crashed into Lucario.
"Lucario!!!" Lucario cried out in pain.
Immediately after, it was sent flying across the arena like a flash of light, causing a violent vibration with a loud "boom" as it hit the ground.
At this moment, the arena was noisy, but outside, it was utterly silent.
The Twelve Branches watched Lucario, who seemed powerless to retaliate, with disbelief on their faces.
Even President Wen himself couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Superpowers, frost, flames??
How could Eevee's reaction speed surpass that of Lucario, who possesses Extreme Speed and Aura??
A thick cloud of doubt formed in everyone's minds.
However, Eevee after returning to its origins was just that versatile, that inscrutable. Lucario, although powerful, might not be as strong as the Armed Magnemite, Darkrai, or Chimchar of Five Gates, and an Eevee that could overpower those three creatures — what kind of strength did it truly possess? Perhaps only a high-level Guardian could overwhelm an Eevee.
...
"Okah!!!"
As President Wen's ace, Lucario, a Guardian God Level Pokémon, showed strong willpower. Even after being struck by an Ice-based Spell and a Fire Type Spell, it still stood up determinedly.
At the same time, it stretched out its paw, using Healing Fluctuation to recover from its injuries, while fixing its gaze on Eevee across from it.
Life Droplet, Healing Fluctuation... Lucario also had the capability to endure.
But to Eevee, none of that mattered, because it was going to end in the next round.
Upon landing, its paw pressed against the ground, causing a rapid tremor, followed by a swift crack.
Simultaneously, or perhaps even sooner, Lucario, thanks to its keen Aura perception, narrowed its eyes and leaped into the air.
The next second, the ground beneath its feet cracked open, and giant green vines erupted, reaching towards the sky like arms.
Crack!!!
Crack!!!
Crack!!
Almost half of the arena split open, with countless vines suddenly rising from the ground, grasping for Lucario, who had jumped to evade them.
Healing Technique, Grass Partner Moves, activate!
If Lucario got entangled, its physical strength would be completely absorbed by Eevee.
Lucario was extremely shocked at that moment. It barely could believe that Eevee had a grass-type move that erupted from the ground. It almost bulged its eyes out as it jumped.
And in the moment it leaped, it knew things were going to be bad...
"Not good, use Flame Kick!!" President Wen also exclaimed in shock.
This was outrageous. How could this Eevee use such a strange Grass Type Move???
"Grass! (a move)"
President Wen and the Twelve Branches had lived long lives but had never seen an Eevee like this.
They felt as if their experience and judgment had become useless.
They all watched the vines shooting through the air in shock, speechless.
Especially the Twelve Branches, who looked at each other in confusion. What was happening? Superpowers, fire, ice, grass... Don't tell them that next, a water move will counter the Fire Type Spell...
Boom!!!
In an urgent situation, Lucario had no choice but to use Flame Kick to sweep aside the encroaching vines from all directions.
However, before Lucario could react, one of the entangled vines suddenly revealed an Eevee.
This scene stunned everyone; they looked down and saw that Eevee hadn't moved from its spot!!!
Could this be... a Substitute??
"Bwoo!!!" The Substitute Eevee had a vicious look in its eyes.
Definitely a Substitute Eevee.
This Eevee was flung close to Lucario by the vines and its body was enveloped with Water flow, which striking head-on against the Flame Kick, confirming the guess of the Twelve Branches. Fang Yuan and Eevee were really countering Flame Kick with a Water Series move.
The next second, the Substitute Eevee was destroyed, and the Water flow also extinguished the flames engulfing Lucario's entire body, forming a huge water bubble that enveloped it.
"Okah!!!"
The water bubble, with its strong suction, limited Lucario's movements. Being enveloped and drained by the water bubble, Lucario felt its physical strength rapidly depleting, severely reducing its condition.
The effect of the Water-type Partner Technique was to absorb physical strength, but at that moment, Eevee was too lazy to bother receiving the strength.
Substitute Joint Fighting Technique!!
Hiding a Substitute within the giant vines of the Grass Partner Techniques to attack, this combat strategy signaled that the battle was over.
The next second.
As Lucario finally broke free from the water bubble, countless vines immediately entwined it once again, resuming the absorption of its strength and restricting its movements. One combination move angered Lucario to the point of using Metal Claw to keep cutting the vines, but the dense growth was simply too difficult to eradicate completely.
Moreover, Fang Yuan and Eevee's intent was never to absorb strength.
"Ignite," Fang Yuan said.
Eevee calmly glanced at the forest of vines before it, nodded in response to the command, and tossed out a spark. The next moment, "Boom!" countless vines were set ablaze, and the explosive flames began a chain reaction, causing a terrifying series of fire explosions.
The flames roared intensely.
The firelight reached to the sky.
Facing all of this, Lucario trapped inside could not dodge and was directly devoured by the sea of fire.
At that moment, Fang Yuan tilted his hat down and looked towards the bewildered President Wen across from him and the stunned Twelve Branches in the audience, thinking:
"I told you, an ordinary Guardian God battling Eevee... would just get completely countered to death..."
President Wen, the Twelve Branches, Future Senpais:
◐△◑
You call this creature Eevee?
