Chapter 536 Lucario: Invisible Fist? I can do that too!
The next day arrived.
The new video had a greater impact than Qingyu had imagined, and while it went viral across the internet, it also boosted the popularity of Beishang Township.
With a keen sense of opportunity, Chairman Yeci immediately took the initiative and used his personal account to start promoting Kitakami Township's tourism projects on Pokémon TV.
The introduction of the heroes Qingyu and Egui took up a considerable amount of space, even prompting GG to appear under Qingyu's video.
Ichiyo Yu strongly suspects that President Yaji made the dumplings just for this little bit of vinegar.
However, since it was the alliance leader's task, he naturally did a small favor by pinning her GG in the comments section.
As long as he doesn't have to go to work, everything else is negotiable!
After all, he has more important things to prepare right now.
After the tournament entered the semifinals, the schedule continued its tight format, leaving virtually no time for preparation.
So, having just won their battle against two Kanto Kings yesterday, Aoba and Takeran are already facing their semi-final opponents today.
Master Ma and Master Miye.
For Qingyu, Master Ma, a legendary player in the game, is both a mentor and a friend.
Not only did Lucario learn a lot at the Isle of Armor dojo, but his style of commanding Lucario was also somewhat influenced by Master Ma.
This battle between master and apprentice is the best opportunity for him and Lucario to prove their strength to Master Marco!
The Miare Arena was bustling with noise.
The contestants who were eliminated early on mostly appeared at the front of the audience, starting to enjoy the rest of the competition in a new role.
"One 'Angry Bun' and two glasses of tree juice, thank you."
"Okay, that'll be 1000 yuan in total, meow~"
After buying snacks from the Meow Meow vendor above the stands, Shiba and Adu quickly took their seats.
What are your thoughts on today's match?
"How do you see it? Of course, you see it with your eyes."
-
After being eliminated early, A-Du seemed to be in a good mood, even joking with Shiba.
However, he quickly shook his head and became a little more serious.
"Qingyu and his group are too young. They are likely to suffer a great loss when facing the experienced Master Ma."
"—Normally, that's how it should be, but Qingyu is really weird. Who knows what strange thing he's prepared this time?"
After saying that, A-Du shrugged.
"Therefore, our speculations are meaningless before the battle begins; we should just wait and see."
Whether it's Qingyu beating up Master Ma or Master Ma beating up Qingyu, it's a win-win situation for them.
What does Qingyu's victory signify?
This shows that his loss was not unjustified; an opponent who couldn't even defeat a Legendary player is beyond the realm of common sense!
What if Qingyu loses?
Even Qingyu couldn't beat Master Ma, so wouldn't the two of them be even more helpless if they went?
Since he couldn't lose either way, A-Du decided to simply abandon his stance and focus solely on whether the game was exciting enough.
"Hmm—that makes sense."
Shiba nodded, his expression slightly disappointed.
"But if I could, I'd really like to have a fighter duel with Master Ma!"
"That's the legendary strongest fighter. If we could even catch a glimpse of one or two moves of the Invisible Fist—"
"————"×2
Green and Red, who were sitting not far behind the two and eavesdropping silently, exchanged a glance and both read a hint of fear in each other's eyes.
If Mr. Shiba really learns the Invisible Fist, then when he challenges the Four Heavenly Kings, these newcomers will definitely be in deep trouble!
Thank you, Teacher Yu!
Qinglu was deeply grateful to Qingyu for sparing her life.
The hardships of gym battles can be overcome with enough effort, and there is more time to try and fail repeatedly.
But when the road to the championship finally opened, they encountered four incredibly cunning and ruthless kings—
Half a month might not even be enough!
A-Du and Kona, two Heavenly Kings who are close to Yu-sensei, might already have been assimilated by him. And what about Granny Kikuko and Mr. Shiba—
They really can't handle it!
You'd better stop using your supernatural powers as soon as possible!
The stands quickly filled up, and the lively atmosphere made the entire venue feel hot and bustling.
"Can Teacher Yu and the Big Sister really win?"
On the other side of the stands, Sinnoh's Dugtrio regrouped.
Having already recovered from the gloom of defeat, Daye looked at Wusong and took the initiative to ask.
"I don't know, but the chances of winning are probably not high."
Even though he rushed to Miare City to watch the game, Wusong still couldn't put down his work, and his tablet screen was covered with dense annotations.
This almost outrageous dedication to his work impressed Da Ye.
Although they didn't have the ability to become champions, they already had the mindset of champions, taking over all the work for the participants.
I, Da Ye, acknowledge your will to win the championship!
"A Battle Legend—a title I never even dared to dream of."
On the other side, A-Liu looked at the big screen and sighed sincerely.
Facing an opponent of this caliber, it takes a lot of courage just to stay calm and avoid making silly mistakes.
"Even if it's just out of personal preference, I still hope that Teacher Yu can win."
Ah Liu's words won the unanimous approval of Da Ye and Wu Song.
Even Cattleya and Wanlong, who were standing to the side, couldn't help but nod in agreement.
"Keep it up, Aoba!"
"If you lose while playing with Zhu Lan, don't blame me for making fun of you for the rest of my life!"
Gadriya clenched her fists, already tense even before the two contestants stepped onto the stage.
Many fans were also eagerly awaiting the players' arrival.
"Go, Teacher Yu! Don't be afraid even if you lose to Master Ma. Show the spirit of the Parthians!"
"Damn it, Teacher Yu is clearly a member of Sinnoh, don't talk nonsense!"
"Master Ma's century-old fan showed up uninvited. Everyone is equal before the veterans; young people should still gain more experience."
"Dude, you're a Ghost-type Pokémon, how can you survive like that?"
In the player tunnel, Qingyu could vaguely hear the commotion above and the various abstract comments from his own fans.
He, who had been a little nervous, suddenly laughed.
Although most of the viewers are rather abstract, however————
Is this also a way for them to encourage themselves in anticipation of victory?
"It's about to start, Qingyu."
Zhu Lan, who was beside him, had also stopped smiling and revealed a sharp, piercing gaze.
"Um.
""
Qingyu nodded.
After the two walked hand in hand out of the players' tunnel, the view ahead suddenly opened up.
The cheers and roars from the audience were deafening, but Qingyu's attention was completely focused on the figure walking towards them.
Master Ma was still wearing that baseball uniform, a stark contrast to his wife, Master Mi Ye, who was dressed much more elegantly and had meticulously applied makeup.
"The day has finally come to battle against Xiaoyuyu!"
"This old man has been waiting for quite some time!"
When shaking hands, Master Ma's face was full of smiles.
However, beneath that smile, Qingyu clearly felt a heavy sense of oppression that almost materialized.
"Please give me your guidance, Master Ma."
After exchanging a few brief pleasantries, both sides took their respective positions on their half of the field.
The battle was about to break out, and the audience fell silent as a result.
But soon, a sharp rebound occurred.
"Go, Teacher Yu!"
"Big Sister, let's go for Sinnoh one more time!"
"Master Ma is the best!"
Amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the audience, the referee blew his whistle, signaling the official start of the duel.
"Go, Martial Arts Bear Master!"
"I choose you, Daruma!"
All four Poké Balls burst open simultaneously, radiating a red light that enveloped the entire arena.
After the light faded, four Pokémon in different poses were staring intently at their opponent, already ready for battle.
The martial arts bear in front of Master Ma had one leg raised and was standing on the ground with its hands in the "White Crane Spreads Wings" posture.
Its offensive and defensive starting stance, as well as the headband-like body hair hanging down its shoulders, reveal that it belongs to the "combo style".
As for Master Honey Leaf's Dharma Baboon, it is a special form unique to Galar.
It resembles a common baboon, but has a large snowball on its head and its body fur is a snowflake-like blue-white.
It's obvious to the naked eye that it's an ice-type.
It's obvious they're here to counter Cynthia, since this Sinnoh champion's ace is Garchomp, which is extremely vulnerable to Ice-type moves.
but----
Zhu Lan's choice this time surprised everyone.
A sea hare that resembles a slug, leaves behind a little sticky liquid when its tentacles touch the ground, and is entirely composed of fluid.
Although it is indeed Cyndaquil's main force, Gastrodon's performance on the offensive end is very limited. Most of the time, its role in her hands is that of an excellent zone defender.
As a starter, he posed very little threat to the opponent.
But if we also consider Qingyu's Lucario—
"Luca!"
Unlike the martial arts master opposite him who was squinting and observing him, Lucario did not adopt the starting stance of the Invisible Fist. Instead, he held an ancient longsword covered in frost and used the blade to prepare for a defensive posture.
Upon seeing this, Mastedt narrowed his eyes and nodded in satisfaction.
"So what Xiaodandan said was true."
"That child has indeed learned other martial arts that are no less powerful than the Invisible Fist—"
Now that Qingyu's Lucario has graduated from his training, it's perfectly normal for him to learn other skills to expand his abilities.
When he was young, he had also traveled to the East to learn many martial arts, and finally summarized the "Invisible Fist" style, which was suitable for martial arts masters and had strong and powerful force.
So Lucario's starting stance actually piqued Master Ma's curiosity.
"Martial Arts Bear Master, charge forward and use Water Stream Combo to test its strength!"
"Kuma!"
Upon receiving Master Ma's instruction, Martial Arts Master Xiong immediately took a step forward.
Its movements are very small, and it does not reveal any flaws when it moves, but its speed is by no means slow.
Seeing this, Qingyu immediately decided to distract his opponent: "Lucario, use the Holy Sword to disrupt its movements!"
"Luca!"
As a Pokémon that has also admired the wall hanging and simultaneously practiced both the single-hit and combo styles, Lucario knows Ushio's methods all too well.
Therefore, every sword strike it unleashed was precisely timed to land at the next target of the Martial Arts Bear Master.
Although hitting the opponent is still a bit difficult, it does seriously disrupt the martial arts master's steps and rhythm.
"Well done!"
In the stands, Shiba suddenly slapped his thigh and exclaimed in heartfelt praise.
Lucario's seemingly pointless actions were, in his eyes, incredibly ingenious.
As the Martial Arts Bear Master's steps continued to shift, the ground behind it was quickly eroded by the sword energy, leaving behind several patches of ice.
In this way, the martial arts bear master's footsteps will land less and less, and his behavior will become easier to predict.
However, the rules for this tournament are doubles.
"Dharma Baboon, use the hot air on the field!"
Master Miye immediately realized what was happening.
Galarian Darmanitan is indeed of the Ice type, but its degenerated Fire Sac still retains the ability to temporarily generate heat.
If you enter the Dharma Mode, you can even cause the fire sac to be reborn out of anger, directly achieving a state of extremes of ice and fire, and only after causing a complete ruckus will the anger subside.
The hot wind spewed from its mouth quickly swept across the land, instantly melting Lucario's little trick into puddles of icy water.
"Gastrodon, unleash a sandstorm on the field!"
Zhu Lan also took the opportunity to act.
It's true that the Sea Gastrodon can't directly impact the situation, but many people overlook its support effects because of this.
What Qingyu valued was its relatively complete set of auxiliary moves.
The sandstorm that swept across the field had little effect on them, but it continued to strike the Martial Arts Bear Master and the Daruma Baboon.
It might not be very useful in the short term, but once it becomes a protracted battle—
Even the smallest influence could completely change the course of the situation.
The Sea Hare Beast, which had been secretly gathering its strength, arrived late. After unleashing a burst of energy into the air, the area immediately began to be filled with flying sand and stones.
Meanwhile, Martial Arts Master Xiong had already silently closed in and made a standard opening move in his combo style.
"Kuma!"
The first punch was aimed straight at Lucario's relatively vulnerable face.
"Luca!"
Lucario immediately used one hand to easily deflect the martial arts bear's fist.
However, the second punch followed immediately, striking its soft abdomen with even greater force than before.
Lucario raised his foot again, using a single-leg lift, a common technique in combo attacks, to stabilize his body. He used his other free leg to block, barely managing to deflect the second punch.
However, there is a third hurdle.
"Kuma!!!"
Suddenly, Martial Arts Master Xiong withdrew his foot, shifted his center of gravity in the blink of an eye, and used the momentum to quickly rotate his body, using the inertia to kick out with his other foot.
The target was aimed directly at Lucario's unsuspecting neck.
With one hand and one foot used to defend against the previous attack, Martial Arts Bear Master was certain that it would not be able to withstand his kick!
"Luca!"
Seeing the powerful whip kick about to strike, Lucario immediately revealed a wicked smile that said, "I knew it," and released his sword-wielding right hand without hesitation.
At the same time, it suddenly squatted down, using its freed hands as a fulcrum, allowing its freed left leg to sweep forward smoothly.
While dodging Master Bear's attack, it launched an attack on the single leg that bore the entire weight of its body!
Apart from practicing swordsmanship, he hasn't wasted a single day this year!
I can also use the invisible fist technique!
