Chapter 521: Righteous Gang Beating
There's no need to consider who shot this Dragon Breath.
To be able to blast this upper-tier Champion Deoxys into the dirt with one shot, it could only be an attack from a Pokémon of the same level or even higher.
And the only Pokémon present that met this condition were four!
The two Deoxys currently dealing with Rayquaza.
Rayquaza.
The enhanced Will.
Feeling the propulsive force on his palms gradually return to zero, Will and Victini exerted force together.
Bang!
The huge rock was thrown to the side, smashing onto the ground with a heavy, muffled thud.
The temperature on the meteorite was still very high; placed on the ground for not even a few seconds, it melted a portion of the soil or rock, forming a depression underneath the meteorite.
Will retracted his hands and took a look.
Both palms were full of scorched colors.
The melting point of steel is 1538 degrees Celsius, and the heat a Champion-level Steel-type Pokémon like Will can withstand will only be higher.
Yet just now he still had the illusion that his hands were going to melt.
Meteorite...
Truly a terrifying thing.
An ordinary ten-meter boulder could be pulverized into dregs without breaking a sweat.
But also a ten-meter boulder, the series of reactions this extraterrestrial object underwent during its fall actually made it so lethal.
"Tini?"
Victini pounced onto Will's arm, looking up worriedly at his palms.
"I'm fine, time for the next round."
Will shook his head and withdrew his hands.
He turned around to look at the Deoxys crawling out of the pit beside them.
That hit from Rayquaza just now left his head buzzing.
"Hah."
Deoxys spread his hands, seeming to want to say something.
"..."
Will stared at him and grinned, revealing a cruel smile.
He didn't know what Deoxys was saying.
Couldn't understand space bird language.
And he didn't want to know right now.
The fact that this kid wanted to sneak attack him just now couldn't be faked.
Then next, no matter what they came to this planet for, and no matter for what reason they launched an invasion on Meteor Falls.
These.
Can all be discussed after this battle ends.
"Tini!"
Victini climbed onto Will's head, glaring angrily at Deoxys.
"Hah..."
Deoxys lowered his hands, a flash of anger seemingly passing through his grayish-white eyes.
The core on his chest flashed rapidly, seeming to transmit some signal to his companions.
Following closely.
Will noticed that the gazes of the four Deoxys nearby were all focused on him.
"Heh, come at me together if you have the ability."
Will mocked disdainfully.
Of course.
He didn't think he could fight these four alone.
He just knew.
He wasn't fighting alone.
Just like at this very moment.
Even if the gazes of the other three Deoxys fell on him, so what?
Elder Aster's Salamence single-handedly fighting a lower-tier Champion.
Garchomp, Metagross, and Zinnia's Noivern, joining forces to beat up a peak Elite Four.
The remaining eight or nine Salamence, no matter how stupid they are, wouldn't be unable to even stall one lower-tier Champion, right?
Then there's this last one in front of him.
"Victini, beat him up."
"Tini!"
Victini bared his fangs, showing a 'fierce' expression.
Whoosh~
Will stomped his foot, disappearing in front of Deoxys in the blink of an eye.
"Hah?!"
Deoxys' eyes widened, subconsciously taking two steps back.
Can't keep up!
The visual system of Attack Forme can't keep up with the figure of the Pokémon in front of him!
After realizing this point.
He immediately switched to Speed Forme, and bent his legs slightly, preparing to fly into the sky.
The visual system could keep up now.
But keeping up at this time was already a bit late.
A thin shadow enveloped him.
Deoxys looked at the shadow on the ground, immediately switched to Defense Forme, and turned to face his back.
But he was still too slow.
Will's level was indeed suddenly raised, that's true.
But this doesn't mean he needs time to adapt to the physical stats of this level.
After all.
He has already lived through the level of Lv. 88 in two lifetimes.
So.
Just the gap of Deoxys switching forms was enough for Will to ruthlessly give him a few punches.
Bam!
Thunder Punch, Ice Punch, Meteor Mash.
All three punches aimed at Deoxys' core.
Immediately after, Will did a high kick, earth-yellow energy gathering on his foot, and kicked out heavily.
At this time, Deoxys had already finished switching forms, crossing his hands into a shield to block in front of him.
But even so.
He was already kicked flying backwards by Will, rolling seven or eight times on the ground before stopping his body.
When Deoxys stood up.
Cold sweat was already flowing down his forehead.
The core on his chest...
Showed cracks.
Deoxys' HP can be completely seen through the core on his chest; the appearance of cracks proves his condition is already not very good.
This is similar to Pokémon like Starmie.
Starmie's condition can also be seen through the pink gem on its chest.
Once the pink gem shatters.
Starmie will lose its combat capability.
It needs a very long period of rest and treatment to regrow the gem.
And the difference between Deoxys' core and Starmie's gem is...
The latter's gem shattering is equivalent to the former's core losing its light.
The former's core shattering equals death.
If Deoxys hadn't switched to Defense Forme in time just now and blocked Will's Earthquake kick.
Right now he'd probably have to ask Ultraman Tiga to borrow some light.
Cold sweat flowing down his forehead.
Deoxys, for the first time in his life, truly experienced what cold sweat means.
Water droplets slid past the corner of his eye.
If it were normally in the universe.
He would boringly catch this drop of sweat and observe it for ten or eight years.
But now.
He could only watch helplessly as this precious cold sweat fell into the soil beneath his feet and disappeared.
"Under so much pressure?"
Will's voice drifted lightly into his ear.
Deoxys had already silently changed back to Speed Forme at this time, his eyes fixed on Will without saying a word.
He actually wanted to switch to Attack Forme to proactively attack.
But if he switched forms, he couldn't keep up...
Wait?!
Deoxys' eyes shifted upwards.
He remembered there seemed to be a mouse on the head of this dog just now?
"Only realizing it now?"
Will grinned, hooking his finger towards behind Deoxys.
Their family's little God of Victory.
Knows how to turn invisible.
Bang!
A fireball dumpling with V-shaped flames on its head closed its eyes and crashed with all its might towards Will's direction.
His naked eye couldn't keep up with Deoxys' speed.
But he didn't need to either.
Will had already told Victini using Aura Power beforehand, just crash towards his direction.
Deoxys completely didn't notice.
On the straight line extending from Will and his position, there was always a Victini.
Boom~
Scorching flames instantly ignited Deoxys.
This kind of flame is different from the cyan-blue flame generated by the meteorite rubbing against the atmosphere.
The former is illusory energy, the latter is concrete matter.
Not to mention Victini's V-create flame temperature is bizarrely high.
Even if it was only a hundred degrees.
It's enough to make Deoxys feel pain.
"Hah..."
Deoxys was hit by the V-create flame, and another crack appeared on the core of his chest.
But he had no time to pay attention.
Because Will completely wouldn't give him a chance to catch his breath.
"You already planned to sneak attack me before, you shouldn't be telling me about martial virtue in a PK now, right?"
Will swept both hands to his back, closing the distance to Deoxys' face in the blink of an eye.
Not to mention Deoxys prepared to sneak attack him before.
Even if he didn't.
He would still gang up on him.
After all, gang beating is an old tradition of his lineage.
If you don't believe it, ask the Pokémon he brought out: Beedrill, Crobat, fake yellow Meowth, Scizor...
Which one isn't good at gang beating others?
This is called a righteous gang beating!
"Hah!!"
Deoxys knew he couldn't dodge, so he simply gave up dodging.
Saw him transform into Defense Forme.
Pushed both arms out.
Looks like he planned to endure this move forcefully.
Swish~
Two fireballs mixed with colorful light were brought out from behind by Will, slapping towards the Deoxys in the middle from both sides like two huge flaming palms.
"Hah!!"
Deoxys spread his hands to forcefully take the flames.
His dead-white eyes suddenly lifted, and he slapped towards Will in front of him.
Will frowned, having no time to dodge, could only subconsciously raise a hand to block, but was actually slapped flying more than a dozen meters away by the huge force.
"Counter?"
Will clenched his teeth tightly, shaking his numb arms.
He now felt his arms were almost dislocated.
Fighting-type moves originally have a 2x super effective effect on him.
Plus the 2x effect of Counter, and Will's own 20% power bonus to Sacred Fire.
If only looking at basic stats.
The power of Will's Sacred Fire hitting Deoxys is 120.
And the latter's Counter against him has a power of 480.
However.
Deoxys entered the 'Burned' status, while Will didn't.
Counter only returns power, not additional status effects.
Moreover.
This battle is already over.
The cracks on the core of Deoxys' chest mended, the red light flickering on and off.
Even Deoxys himself seemed to have anticipated the ending, his eyes quietly staring at Will, seemingly having given up resistance.
He turned his head to look at his companions fighting hard around him.
Already knowing the ending.
"Tini!"
Victini descended from the sky.
Carrying translucent crimson hot air that distorted space, he slapped towards Deoxys with all his might.
The scorching aura rushed to the face.
Even standing more than a dozen meters away, Will also felt that hot air seemed to want to suffocate him.
Took a few deep breaths.
Looked up again.
Deoxys had already collapsed on the yellow earth. His eyes stared fixedly at the Draconid people, the flames of anger flashing through his eyes.
Clearly...
You are the robbers.
Deoxys' eyes closed.
He didn't die, just fainted.
Smack smack smack!
Victini was still riding on Deoxys' back, punching and kicking this evil alien.
Will walked over helplessly and scooped up the little guy.
"Tini!"
"I know, but let's let him off for now. This guy's Aura was not right just now. I feel we still need to understand the whole story clearly."
After Will left this sentence, he turned to look at the sky,
"After resolving this battle."
