Chapter 1442 The King's Curtain Falls
Rumble!!
The devastating flames rushed straight towards the crystallized Bossco Ramen gate, a crimson pillar pierced through the heavens and earth, and an earthy yellow halo trembled violently within it!
The enhanced flames of the Blazing Fire were exceptionally powerful, and the thrust they generated was also considerable. This significantly slowed down the momentum of the Twin-Head Hammer, preventing the giant monster from getting close to the current Fire-Breathing Dragon for a short period of time.
The power that the resonance added to Charizard was so great that even Kashiwagi couldn't help but admire it, and the Mega Mawile beside him also had a solemn expression on its face.
Putting itself in its shoes, it must admit that it would be difficult for it to withstand this attack unscathed.
After all, it is inherently weak to fire, not to mention Charizard's powerful firepower!
Unfortunately, the Pokémon it was battling wasn't it.
It's Bosscodora.
The only Pokémon in the world with a level of 98 and a fourfold weakness that it has changed through Crystallization, yet still retains the STAB (STAB) effect of Rock-type Pokémon!
Not to mention its ability, Hard Head, which perfectly negates the negative effects of the Rock-type move, Double Headbutt.
So no matter how much Dan-di and Charizard trigger the Blazing Fire and resonate with each other, it's all in vain.
The scorching flames poured over its entire body, yet the crystallized Bosscodora remained unmoved.
With the aid of electromagnetic levitation, even if it fails to collide with its opponent immediately, its massive body will not be thrown back to the ground.
The excited host and audience members quickly noticed this.
"The jet of flame triggered by the intense fire... doesn't seem to be very effective!"
Ground-type is neither weak to Fire-type nor resistant to Fire-type. Logically, with Charizard's current firepower, it should at least be able to block the opponent's attack and knock it down from mid-air, right?
His strength has increased significantly...
But that's it?
As the crimson pillar gradually burned out, the double-edged hammer that was in opposition to it remained bright and charged straight at the fire-breathing dragon!
Get out of the way!
Leon waved his hand forcefully, and Charizard's wings vibrated and spun, avoiding the impact of the double-edged hammer at an extremely sharp angle.
The crystallized Aggron missed its charge and quickly turned around to continue chasing Charizard.
Fortunately, the latter's Dragon Dance was not used for nothing; its acceleration effect was exceptionally good, ensuring that he could always maintain a certain distance from his opponent.
One rammed into the other, and the two Pokémon remained locked in a stalemate.
"Gurgle..."
The crystallized Boston Dora was not in a hurry.
Although level 98 did not grant it enough speed to catch up with Charizard's two Dragon Dances, its defense and stamina were almost maxed out.
Charizard's stamina was less than a third of its maximum, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to trigger the Blazing Fire.
The consequences of dragging things out are obvious.
Besides, would the Pill Emperor be the kind of person who deliberately drags things out?
From the very beginning, this undefeated champion has never been cautious in his playing style. He is a more advanced version of Ash Ketchum, who advocates straightforward and fair attacks.
Because his strength has always been, like Kashiwagi's, far superior to any of his opponents.
When you encounter a roadside NPC in a game, who would think of using tactics to stall for time?
Of course, it's the skill that gets the best results by spamming the buttons!
Dan Di hadn't had a match like this in a long time, where he was completely outmatched by the opponent's strength. It was like the players who fought Bamboo Orchid for the first time in the Diamond & Pearl rerun and were shocked to find that their preferred level suppression tactics seemed to have some kind of problem.
At this moment, facing the ultimate monster created by the "official" cheat code, Dan had to admit one thing.
"Kashiwagi! You're stronger now!"
His eyes blazed with a fiery light as he shouted, "But we will not back down! Great Flame Burst!"
"Roar!!"
Charizard opened its massive jaws, unleashing a torrent of flames. The extreme heat distorted the air, dimming the light in the arena. The enormous, elongated flames resembled some kind of seal, pressing down on the crystallized Aggron.
"Sharp Stone Attack!"
"Goohoo!"
With a loud roar, the dark ground immediately crumbled, and countless large and small pebbles shot into the sky to protect it, gathering irregularly in layers to form an indestructible stone wall.
Boom!!
A deafening roar echoed through the air!
The swirling flames and stone walls continued to emit a high-pitched roar, vibrating the air inside and outside the field, and the aftershocks alone repeatedly triggered the protective devices.
The power of the Great Flame Burst was more intense than Kashiwagi had imagined; it seemed that Charizard's firepower had been further amplified at Leon's command.
—The power of Bond Rhythm is truly terrifying, as it continuously increases the power of moves according to the trainer's will.
"Gurgle..."
With a muffled roar, the crystallized Boscodor stopped trying to hold back the almost blackish-red flames with the stone wall and charged forward, causing the stone wall to crumble from the inside. Countless pieces of stone tore through the flames like a rainstorm!
【Sharp Stone Attack】 combines defense and offense!
This time, even though Charizard displayed the same speed as when dodging the Twin Head Hammer, it was still unable to completely dodge the thousands of whistling rocks coming at it.
Boom boom boom!
The immense potential energy transformed into a terrifying impact, striking the Charizard's body repeatedly, slamming into its wing membranes and chest.
"Roar!"
Charizard let out a muffled groan, its body plummeting towards the ground like a kite with a broken string.
Ouch!
Smoke and dust billowed up.
The announcer shouted, "Stone Attack breaks through Flame Burst! Charizard is hit! It falls to the ground!"
Countless viewers stared wide-eyed at this scene, many of Leon's fans covered their mouths in disbelief, and some even began to pray for Charizard.
Is it over?
Is it really going to collapse like this?
The crystallized Aggron then fell to the ground, its heavy body kicking up dust that swirled around it, making this Pokémon, which had remained calm and composed throughout, seem like a demon god, inspiring awe from the bottom of one's heart.
"Gurgle..."
It growled softly into the distance.
As the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, the fire-breathing dragon struggled to its feet, hunched over in exhaustion, each breath seeming like the utmost effort.
Instead of being disappointed by this scene, Dan Di smiled.
He lowered his hat brim and whispered, "Thank you, Charizard, but please hang in there a little longer! Show us everything you have, and everything we have! Champion moment!"
The black baseball cap flew high into the air, and Dani raised his right hand, letting out an unprecedented roar!
"Big characters Explosion!!"
"Roar--!!"
Charizard roared with fury, and raging flames rose from its tail, transforming into huge characters that wrapped around its body, which was gradually turning red due to the extreme heat, forming a terrifying posture resembling a Flame Charge!
Kashiwagi then raised his hand: "Looks like it's time! Double-edged hammer!"
"Goohoo!"
The crystallized Boscodora lay prone, its earthy yellow halo suddenly flashing brightly. Energy streams swirled around it, and surrounding rocks flew high into the air, spinning under the influence of terrifying air currents, much like the rings around Saturn.
Two Pokémon, separated by the scorching flames that had ravaged the unrecognizable arena, gazed intently at each other, and then...
Full speed ahead!
boom--!!
The arena was instantly engulfed by two beams of light, with crimson flames and earthen halos filling the entire field of vision. When the two giant beasts clashed mercilessly, a terrifying, ear-piercing roar erupted in mid-air!
The fire and rock energies eroded and annihilated each other, and the scattered aftershocks swept across the entire area, causing the protective devices to emit a low, mournful groan.
Charizard, riding a flame that was both desperate and full of hope, let out a roar almost identical to Leon's. The raging fire burned everything in sight and was about to completely melt the crystallized Aggron in front of it!
The flames at its tail burned fiercely, providing it with a continuous and powerful firepower, and the intense light in its eyes was enough to pierce through the darkness and bring dawn!
"Let's go—!!"
"Roar--!!"
Amidst the deafening roar, Dante and Charizard, with their decades of tacit understanding, hard work, and fighting spirit, finally succeeded in smashing the seemingly indestructible yellowish-brown halo in front of them!
The raging flames immediately found an outlet, erupting like a volcano and rushing straight forward, engulfing everything in their path.
The half of the field where the crystallized Bosscodora was located was covered in flames, with the ground filled with scorching light like flowing lava.
But just as Charizard was about to charge forward further...
A sharp claw suddenly tore through the intense heat of the flames and seized its neck in a way it could hardly believe.
"Whoa—"
In the blink of an eye, the world spun around!
Boom!
The earth trembled violently, like the noise of something burning.
However, this noise directly caused the flames to extinguish, and a strong wind surged in, scattering the crimson flames and making the area exceptionally clear.
The audience rubbed their eyes and looked down, only to be met with a scene that made their hearts pound!
The crystallized Aggron actually stepped on Charizard's body and looked down at it from above. What exactly happened just now?
It was clearly the Big Flame Burst that broke through the Double-Edged Hammer!
The host exclaimed, "Charizard's momentum has been halted by Aggron! Something unpredictable has happened!"
Unknowable?
Indeed, apart from Dante and Kashiwagi, no one knew the specifics of what had happened.
The Great Flame Burst did indeed shatter the Double-Edged Hammer. It was the culmination of his years of hard work, a supreme strike symbolizing Galar's strongest partner. There was no reason why it couldn't break through the opponent's normal offensive, even if the opponent's level was frighteningly high.
Hope and bonds are the strongest forces in the Pokémon world!
however.
Breaking through the opponent's offensive does not mean that the remaining flames can burn through the crystallized Aggron.
What Aggron is most proud of is its unparalleled defense that no one can shake!
There was a time when it could face off against Wallace's Mega Swampert, and now it can do the same with Charizard's Bond Pyroblast.
To break through its defenses, you'd better level up to 100 first!
"Goohoo!"
The crystallized Aggron lowered its head and stared at Charizard, then withdrew its foot from the Charizard and slammed its massive tail down without hesitation!
Boom!
The giant rock rose up from below with a roar, lifting the fire-breathing dragon into the sky!
Bang!
Smoke billows!
The announcer shouted, "Stone Attack hits! Charizard is completely helpless!"
The audience seats inexplicably fell silent.
Everyone realized what was happening. Deng Pei flew in from outside the arena, and when the smoke cleared, he also saw the fire-breathing dragon lying on its side with its eyes closed.
Charizard is unable to battle! Aggron wins!
As soon as he finished speaking, unprecedented cheers erupted from all directions, filling the entire stadium and even spreading throughout the entire city of Gongmen!
it's over!
"Kashiwagi wins! He's advanced to the finals!" the host shouted. "He maintained his undefeated streak! Even against the invincible champion, Dan!"
Bang bang bang!
The cannons roared, and colorful ribbons fluttered everywhere.
Inside the stadium.
Dan Di's tense muscles slowly relaxed. He breathed heavily, his eyes showing both confusion and a sense of relief as he gradually came to his senses.
"ended."
In the eight-master elimination tournament, he was eliminated in the semifinals.
Dan Di looked up at the sky, his heart still unable to find peace.
The mix of disappointment, regret, and an indomitable will to keep going was so intense that it left him reeling for a long time.
I haven't felt this way in so many years.
I want to win.
I want to defeat Kashiwagi and Aggron.
I want to continue being the world's king alongside Charizard.
Dandi turned around, picked up the hat, put it on his head, and his consciousness instantly returned to his first defeat.
That was also their only defeat.
"Next time, we must win!"
He clenched his fist and uttered these words that he hadn't spoken for decades.
Thinking this, Dan ran towards the arena and helped the gradually waking Charizard to its feet. He whispered, "Thank you, Charizard. You played very well."
The best game in nearly a decade!
"Ooh..."
Charizard responded softly, its gaze following the trainer's as it looked at the nearby Aggron and Kashiwagi walking slowly towards them.
Kashiwagi extended his hand to Dan, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Thank you. It was a wonderful battle. I witnessed the bond between you and Charizard."
"It's me on this side. Thank you for showing me true power!"
Leon shook hands with him, and using the pull of the other to get up, Charizard also stood up, looking at Aggron after the crystallization ended.
Bosscodora nodded to it and hummed.
You're great.
The fact that Charizard can make it feel threatened shows that its strength is undeniable.
"Whoa!"
Charizard nodded in agreement.
Aggron is the strongest Pokémon it has ever encountered, so powerful that it deeply feels that the other party is no ordinary being.
In the audience, Hop and Woolstätter looked like wilted eggplants, listless and dejected.
They couldn't accept Dan Di's defeat, and the cheers from the surrounding crowd sounded particularly jarring.
Ash and Pikachu were still reeling from the shock Leon and Charizard's last moments, and at the same time, they were deeply aware of how terrifying Aggron was.
Even if he were there, he would think that Charizard would be the winner in the final breakthrough of the Twin Blade Hammer.
As a result, Aggron so easily tore through the high-temperature flames and countered the Charizard, whose momentum had reached its peak.
"Pikachu..."
"Pickup!"
They started to feel nervous, but this was followed by immense anticipation.
Prepare the room.
No one spoke.
Many gym leaders were dumbfounded. For example, Margua, also an expert in Rock-type moves, could not have imagined that the competition would end like this.
"Perhaps only someone like that could form such a bond with so many legendary Pokémon?"
"..."
Zhu Lan stood up, her eyes piercing through the French windows and landing on Bai Mu, her heart also unable to calm down for a long time.
