Chapter 136 The Final Victory, Tongtian Dai Makes His Appearance!
After Pikachu defeated Arbok, Lorelei called again, and Cynthia finally learned Ash's detailed information from Lorelei.
The other person was even younger than she had guessed, having only debuted two months ago!
Moreover, he had not trained any Pokémon before embarking on this journey.
Despite being the youngest champion in history, she actually spent more than three years training Pokémon.
Before she started her journey, she already had a Garchomp at the Gym Leader level. Over the next three years, she gradually upgraded her Garchomp to Champion level, and some of her other Pokémon also slowly reached the Elite Four level.
When she became champion at the age of eighteen, she didn't have all champion-level Pokémon. It was just that Garchomp was too strong, so she managed to defeat that year's Sinnoh champion.
Now, after several years of reflection, she has become a true champion in every sense of the word.
The Sinnoh League became one of the top leagues under her influence.
If there were rankings between leagues, Galar, with its strongest champion, would be ranked number one, while Sinnoh League would be ranked number two.
As for the bottom-ranked alliance, without a doubt, it's the Kanto Alliance.
After all, two of the four Kings of the Kanto Alliance are from other regions, which already clearly shows how much of a talent gap the Kanto Alliance is facing.
Furthermore, the Kanto League doesn't have a champion yet. If they're not at the bottom, who is?
If the Kanto Alliance continues down this path, they may go from being the strongest alliance to one that has to merge with the Johto Alliance.
But now, things seem to have taken a turn for the better.
If the boy named Ash on TV were given more time to grow, he could undoubtedly become a Champion-level trainer, and it wouldn't be impossible for him to even become a champion.
No, I should say he absolutely has the potential to become a champion. If he maintains this momentum, he might even become a champion trainer younger than her.
"What will you use for your third Pokémon? I'm really looking forward to it," Cynthia murmured, her beautiful eyes full of interest.
Asabane Dojo—
Ash brought Pikachu back and handed it to Misty, who was standing nearby.
"Pikachu is in your care now."
"But Ash, what are you going to use for your third Pokémon? It's not Gardevoir, is it?" Misty asked with some concern after taking Pikachu from her.
If Ash uses Gardevoir, frankly speaking, he's basically guaranteed to lose this third match.
Gardevoir's strength is comparable to Charizard's. Even if Gardevoir has a trump card like Charizard's special flame, she still cannot defeat a mid-level Elite Four Pokémon.
Now, A-Ju only has one Pokémon left to rely on for error. She can't expect the opponent to go easy on her by using a low-level Elite Four Pokémon, can she? That's not very realistic.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'm sure I'll win this third battle!" Ash grinned, his face full of confidence.
After saying that, Ash took the hat off Pikachu's head and put it back on his own, then turned and walked towards the arena.
Xiaoxia and Xiaogang looked at each other, wondering where Xiaozhi's confidence came from.
Could it be that he's hiding something they don't know about?
Upon returning to the field, the area was once again enveloped by a transparent protective shield.
In fact, every time the barrier breaks, the surrounding machines will redistribute the stored energy to repair the barrier.
However, the battle between Pikachu and Arbok had completely exceeded the barrier's defense threshold, causing the barrier to be completely destroyed before it could be repaired.
Although the barrier was subsequently repaired, it was shattered by the aftershocks almost immediately after only a small amount of repair was completed.
So the barrier wasn't fully repaired until after the match ended.
This barrier, which is effective in gym-level battles, is still somewhat insufficient in Elite Four-level battles.
If Ash hadn't released his Aura to protect the area beforehand, the entire Fuchsia Gym would probably have been blown away by now.
Even Ash couldn't be distracted by protecting his surroundings while he was focused on the battle.
If he and Pikachu hadn't been of one mind and shared the same goal back then, the power of Flash would have been reduced, and Arbok wouldn't be the one losing now.
Therefore, A-Ju's initial guess was correct; the person protecting the gym was Ash.
As Ash returned to the battle, Giorno took out his last Poké Ball, and his gaze towards Ash was filled with a mix of emotions.
Amazed, astonished, and full of praise – Ash's performance today far exceeded his expectations, and even now, he hasn't used the Pokémon he used to counter Sabrina.
Sabrina's strength is no secret among these top gym leaders. Her Alakazam possesses strength comparable to that of an Elite Four member, and even Lorelei couldn't defeat it in a one-on-one situation.
Ash was able to defeat Sabrina, which couldn't possibly be because he barely managed to defeat a Charizard at the beginner level of the Elite Four, or because he used all his skills to defeat a Pikachu at the intermediate level of the Elite Four.
In other words, Ash still has a trump card up his sleeve.
Now that things have come to this, he can no longer hide anything. He must use his trump card for this third spirit!
Otherwise, if we really lose this battle, it will be a huge problem!
Does he still want the position of King of the Capital?
"Ash, I've been looking forward to battling you for a long time, but I never expected it to turn out like this. I didn't even think we'd have a three-on-three Elite Four battle, and you've pushed me to the brink. This Pokémon is my strongest trump card. If I lose even this, I'll be 'famous for all time.'"
Ah Ju, with a touch of emotion, jokingly expressed her true feelings.
If a trainer who has only been in the industry for two months were to defeat three Elite Four level Pokémon in a row, including his ace Pokémon, it wouldn't just be a glorious achievement; it would likely be a disgrace that would be forever etched in history. So, whether it's to take over as the Elite Four member of Johto soon or to avoid being "glorified for all time," he cannot afford to lose this battle!
"Mr. Aju - Good luck!" Ash called out Aju's name and then cheered him on. This caused Aju, who was about to throw a Poké Ball, to fall flat on his face.
What does this mean? Is Ash, his rival, cheering him on? Does he not want to win anymore?
If it were anyone else, A-Ju would definitely think the other person was mocking him. To be honest, Ash also has a history of mocking him.
But given Ash's personality, he probably wouldn't do such a thing. So far, Ash has left a pretty good impression on him. Even though Ash has repeatedly defeated his Pokémon that are much stronger than him, Ash has never shown any arrogant, sarcastic, or proud expressions.
Instead, after each battle, he would immediately go to his Pokémon, encourage and praise them, and then recall them into their Poké Balls or take them away from the battlefield.
Ah-Ju hadn't seen a young man with this kind of personality in a long time.
That's why A-Ju was wondering what Ash meant by "cheer up".
Meanwhile, after encouraging A-Ju at home, Xiao-Zhi closed his eyes, seemingly to rest, but in reality, he went to the chat group.
[Newbie Ash: Guys, I've won two matches! Mr. Kikko will probably use his ace in the last match, who's going to play him?]
[Champion Ash: I'll go. It's been a long time since I've battled a Champion. Let's refresh our memories.]
[Tactical Xiaozhi: Fine, you can have it since you spoke first, but next time you have to let me play a bit. Nobody on my side wants to play with me anymore.]
[Champion Ash: Heh, look at the group chat, how many people are willing to play against you?]
[Ash the Aura Warrior: That's not quite right. Didn't I just fight him last time?]
[Champion Ash: And then you were so disgusted by him that you couldn't eat all day?]
[Ash the Aura: Hey, same goes for him, he's not doing much better.]
[Newbie Ash: Ahem, um, we're all Ash, so let's not hurt each other, Champion, how do I do this?]
[Champion Ash: Look at the right side of the group chat, there should be an icon lit up.]
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi's virtual body looked at the left side of the chat box. There were many icons on the left, but no matter how he clicked on these buttons or imagined them with his mind, they did not produce any response.
But now, one of the icons on it lit up. It was a hat-shaped icon. Ash tapped it lightly, and instantly, countless options appeared in front of Ash.
These are the names of each of Ash's characters in the group, and now Ash wants to choose one person to descend upon him.
This is the one-time A-rank ability he drew a few days ago, [Tongtiandai].
This ability allows Ash to choose a powerful member of his group to possess him, train his Pokémon, and help him in battles.
It wasn't just Ash from another world who arrived, but also—one of their Pokémon.
As mentioned before, no physical prizes will be drawn in any of the raffles within the chat group. For example, items like handbags cannot be drawn from the group chat.
Therefore, it's impossible for other Ash's Pokémon to descend from a parallel world.
To be precise, it's impossible to make their spirit bodies appear, but it's possible to make them appear as energy bodies.
Ash won the Aura Power of Aura Hero in his first lottery draw, and then the group chat channeled the power into his body.
This gave him the power to directly compete with Pokémon of Champion rank or higher.
This time is no different; Ash can designate one of his Pokémon to consume the power of the same-origin Pokémon from the group's top players.
Simply put, if Ash chooses to let Champion Ash possess him, and he has a Charizard Pokémon, then Ash can choose his own Charizard and have it imbued with the power of Champion Ash's Charizard.
However, this power is only available once; once the possession period ends, the power attached to the spirit will disappear.
At first glance, it seems that this thing can only be used to help secure a victory in dangerous situations or battles that are unwinnable.
It doesn't provide any real improvement to the elves.
However, given Ash's Aura power, unless two God-level beings come at once, there shouldn't be any major problems.
As for helping out in battles that can't be won, this kind of victory obtained by relying on the strength of others doesn't count as a real victory for Ash, unless there is a competition that must be won, such as one where losing would mean the destruction of the world.
Otherwise, even if it's the Eight Masters Championship, Ash himself wouldn't accept the victory achieved by someone else, even if it's his parallel universe self.
So this ability might seem useless, but it's not. Besides helping in a fight, this one-time ability has an additional effect: the possessed spirit will retain a portion of the possessing spirit's talent and power.
This is the most precious aspect of sexual ability.
Ash didn't intend to use this opportunity to battle Kikko. If he had used it at the beginning, even if it was a one-against-six battle, Kikko might not have been able to win.
However, the experts in the group suggested using this opportunity to challenge the Fuchsia Gym, but not at the beginning.
Ash's growth has actually reached a certain limit. His growth rate is indeed very fast, but it can go even faster.
Ash's potential is limitless, and now with the chat group acting like a cheat code, it would be really unacceptable if he didn't reach the championship within a year.
Therefore, in order to further unleash Ash's potential, he needs to take on some challenging battles, such as battling the Elite Four.
If it's just a one-on-one match, it won't be too much pressure for Ash, because his partner Pikachu is just too overpowered. Plus, with Ash's Aura Fusion, as long as he doesn't face a Champion, he has a chance to win.
Two-on-two would be stressful, but the rules of the Crimson Dojo are three-on-three, which is actually just right.
This way, we can put pressure on Ash's two Pokémon, allowing those two Pokémon with a chance of winning to fight the first two matches, and then hand the third match over to the experts in the group.
If Ash defeats two of Akihime's Elite Four-level Pokémon, Akihime will definitely send out his ace Pokémon as the third one. This would allow Ash's Pokémon to experience what it's like to battle an Elite Four-level ace after gaining power.
As an opponent, he's just average, but there aren't any more suitable opponents in the short term. Plus, there's a problem child in Ash's team, so this battle is a good opportunity to help him resolve his inner conflicts.
That's why Ash finally made the decision to have a three-on-three Elite Four battle with Kikyo.
From the beginning, he planned that as long as he won two matches against Aju, he would be considered the victor. As for the third match, that was not his battlefield, and even if he won, it wouldn't be considered his.
After defeating Aju's two Pokémon, his challenge was over. It was time for the group's experts to show off. That's why Ash said "Good luck, Aju!" to Aju before the battle.
This isn't mockery or sarcasm, but heartfelt encouragement for Ah Ju, because what he's about to face might be the biggest nightmare of his career!
