Chapter 449 The Dragon-Riding Ferry Was Young Once Too
"The match is a one-on-one contest with a ten-minute time limit. If neither player falls before the countdown ends, it is a draw."
Nirvana briefly explained the competition rules, speaking a bit faster than usual, clearly also caught up in the atmosphere.
He took a deep breath, raised his right hand, his gaze sweeping between the two contestants, and then swung it down sharply: "Now, the competition officially begins!"
"Hakron, unleash the power unique to the Dragon Legion!"
Lance threw the Poké Ball with a swift and clean motion.
A burst of red light erupted, and a slender figure emerged from the light.
It is predominantly light blue, with a milky white belly and two small, delicate white wings.
Two blue beads are strung on its tail, which floats in mid-air, and its body is slightly bent.
Li Luochen recognized the other party; it was actually Hakron!
However, he did not let his guard down because his opponent was a Dragonair that had not yet evolved into a Dragonite.
Even without the system, he could clearly sense that the Hakuryu in front of him possessed terrifying strength.
Its aura is terrifying. Although it has not evolved into a Dragonite, it has strength that is no less than that of an ordinary Dragonite!
That was a Hakulong carefully cultivated by Yulongdu, a creature that struck fear into the hearts of countless opponents!
"Latias, please!"
Li Luochen threw out a Poké Ball, and a golden figure emerged from the light.
It is indeed Xyladias!
Its golden body and emerald green eyes attracted the audience's attention.
The audience fell silent for a moment, then erupted in a deafening gasp.
"A different colored Latias!"
"Golden! It's golden!"
"My God, this is so beautiful!"
Unlike many spectators, the atmosphere in the VIP room for the league's top management was subtly quiet.
The huge floor-to-ceiling glass curtain wall offers a panoramic view of the entire venue. From here, the players, Hakron and Latias, appear as two exquisite chess pieces facing off on the green chessboard.
Several high-ranking members of the alliance sat on the sofa, holding teacups in their hands. However, their gazes did not linger on the extremely rare heterochromatic Latias. Instead, they all involuntarily fell on the Hakuryu in the arena, their expressions varying.
Some frowned slightly, while others shook their heads gently.
Some people put down their teacups, clasped their hands together on their knees, and looked solemn.
Then, the eyes of the Kanto Alliance's top brass turned to Shiba and Kona.
Shiba leaned back on the sofa, his expression calm, but his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he were recalling something from a long time ago.
Kona sat next to him, her gaze fixed on the Hakkarosaurus, her lips pursed, saying nothing.
Fun fact: Several years ago, when Yulongdu was still a young man, these three joined forces to try to overthrow the Kanto Alliance.
Back then, they were young and impetuous, harboring resentment. They felt the league was corrupt and rotten, that the rules were restrictive, and that they could change everything on their own.
They had been planning and preparing for a long time, and even on the eve of their operation, they raised a glass in a small tavern and swore an oath to share success or failure.
However, the three of them, Yulongdu and his companions, were later granted amnesty and became the Four Heavenly Kings.
It wasn't because they failed, but because they discovered that destroying an old world was much easier than building a new one.
They chose to compromise, chose to change from within, chose to wear the crown of the Four Heavenly Kings, and became part of the system they once wanted to overthrow.
Now, Yulongdu is also a member of the international investigators, holding multiple positions and wielding great power.
This Dragonair is Lance's Pokémon from his youth, accompanying him through his life and witnessing the failed revolution and Lance's transformation from a rebellious youth to a pillar of the League.
It is currently maintaining its Champion-level strength. Don't underestimate Dragonair just because it's a Dragonair; it is actually much stronger than a regular Dragonite.
This is not a difference in talent, but rather the accumulation of years!
Years of training, countless real battles, and experiences that teetered on the brink of life and death have all been etched onto every scale of this Hakkarosaurus, transforming it into its unique and irreplaceable essence!
Shiba picked up his teacup and took a sip. The tea had gone cold, and a bitter taste spread across his tongue.
He put down his cup, his gaze returning to the field, and said in a low voice, "Du, that guy, is still so nostalgic."
Kona remained silent, simply placing her teacup on the table and resting her hands on her knees, folded over each other.
The competition has officially begun!
With a wave of his hand, Yu Longdu stood tall and imposing, his cloak billowing out as he moved, rustling in the wind.
At that moment, his nephew's battle made him seem less like one of the Four Heavenly Kings, less like an international investigator, and more like that spirited young man from many years ago who dared to declare war on the entire league!
"Hakron, rain!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the azure beads strung on the neck and tail of the dragon burst into dazzling light, and the pair of small wings on the sides of its head suddenly expanded, stretching out from the size of a palm to twice the length of its body!
Then, with a gentle wave of the fan!
A sudden gust of wind arose, followed by a torrential downpour.
The wind gathered from all directions, and large raindrops pelted down!
Splash!
Rainwater hit the ground, splashing up water and making a crackling sound!
Inside the VIP room, Kona raised an eyebrow slightly.
She is the most skilled trainer in weather battles, and her mastery of Ice-type weather is unmatched in the entire Kanto region.
But seeing Hakron's rainmaking skills, she had to admit that her partner, Ferry, was indeed quite capable.
Shiba leaned back on the sofa, a slight smile playing on his lips: "That guy, Watari, he's getting serious right from the start."
"Wow...that's amazing..."
In the audience, Xiao Zhi's mouth was agape in an "O" shape, and he was completely unaware of the rain hitting his face.
Pikachu's ears were blown back by the wind, and its little paws were tugging at its hair.
Bilan looked at the Hakron, which stood tall and straight in the storm, and then at Li Luochen, who was standing at the other end of the field, his shirt soaked with rain but still looking calm. The corners of her mouth curved slightly.
If it were her, she would have many ways to deal with this move.
However, Li Luochen is a newcomer to the Heavenly King realm and has never seriously fought against a true powerhouse. It is unknown whether he can cope with the methods of Yulongdu.
Azure was waiting to see how her man would respond to this move.
"Latias, dance with the wind, Dragon Pulse!"
Li Luochen gave the order, his voice still clear amidst the raging wind and rain.
Latias's emerald green eyes suddenly lit up, and his golden body stood out against the gray sky.
A gust of wind rose up from behind Latias, causing it to transform into a golden afterimage and soar through the sky!
At the same time, a purple light curtain condensed in its mouth. The light curtain went from blurry to clear, from thin to dense, as if something was being conceived, taking shape, and about to break out of its shell!
In an instant, it shot out with a roar!
Then, the purple wave tore through the sky!
