Chapter 256: Jinghe vs. Thunderbird!
Chapter 256: Jinghe vs. Thunderbird!
"Roar~"
Its body was as pure and crystalline as a white snow lotus, with graceful and elegant lines. Its eyes, still deep blue and lively, had lost some of their innocence and gained a depth of wisdom.
The legendary creature residing deep within the snowy mountains, a fusion of speed and strength, an epitome of elegance and beauty—Ice Nine-Tails!
Its nine tails swayed naturally, releasing an extreme cold from its body that condensed into snow-white ice flowers on the ground beneath its feet.
Jinghe looked at the newly evolved Ice Nine-Tails.
His heart filled with a sense of pride and contentment, akin to the saying, "My daughter has grown up, while others are still immature."
"Roar~"
The Ice Nine-Tails turned its head towards Jinghe, its serene gaze filled with affection. It smiled gently at him.
When the little Six-Tailed Pokemon evolved into the Nine-Tails, did it bite and swallow that top-quality Ice Stone?
Hopefully, it won't have any indigestion issues.
"So beautiful," Kyoka murmured, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her eyes sparkling with a youthful glow.
"More than just beautiful," Renshi exhaled, rubbing his arms. Even from a distance, he felt like he was freezing to death.
Sakura also marveled at the scene in his mind.
The Ice Nine-Tails' determination, Jinghe's trust, and support—this was the embodiment of the bond between a Trainer and their Pokemon.
The Ice Six-Tailed Pokemon's display of ice-type energy was undoubtedly linked to Jinghe's care and encouragement.
"Go, Snowfall!" Jinghe said with a slight smile.
"Roar~"
The Ice Nine-Tails gracefully leaped, its body shimmering with snow-white crystals that refracted a dazzling rainbow of light.
At the same time, the dark clouds in the sky churned once more. The thunderclouds within dissipated before their eyes, replaced by falling snowflakes.
Thunderbird, a combination of Electric and Flying types, was weak only to Rock and Ice-type moves.
The sudden drop in temperature, the falling snow, and the change in weather made it feel extremely uncomfortable.
In Jinghe's view, the evolved Ice Nine-Tails had learned the "Magic Sparkle" move it couldn't previously use and had also mastered an Ice-type move called "Freeze-Dry."
[Freeze-Dry: A move with a power of 70, but it deals double damage to Water-type Pokemon and has a chance to freeze the opponent.]
Excellent.
Against Water-type Pokemon, they now had an additional advantage.
However, against Thunderbird, these moves wouldn't be very effective for the time being.
Since the weather had already turned into a snowstorm, why not use Blizzard?
"Nine-Tails, Blizzard!"
"Roar~"
The little Pokemon's eyes gleamed with a psychic light, and its psychic power instantly extended like countless invisible threads.
Simultaneously, a terrifying blizzard formed, intensifying under the psychic power, making the howling wind and snow even more ferocious.
"Hngga~!"
Gramps floated back a short distance, blocking his eyes with his hands.
Wow, the little cutie became so brave after evolving!
Gigaton Smith and Hachubo also retreated a bit, with Gigaton feeling like his hammer had suddenly become heavier.
Awesome!
As a Dragon-type Pokemon, Hachubo didn't particularly enjoy the cold temperatures and snowy weather, but like Jinghe, if he spent enough time in such conditions, he'd eventually get used to it.
Snap!
The mucus bubble on the Bear Apprentice's nose froze solid, and it popped, waking it up.
After witnessing the evolved Ice Nine-Tails, it patted the snow off its body, looking a bit dazed.
Seems like it still needs more training with those mucus bubbles.
This was the reaction of the little Pokemon, but Thunderbird wasn't faring so well.
The terrifying cold, ice, and swirling blizzard made it feel bone-chillingly cold, and when the extreme cold reached its peak, it felt like its entire body was burning.
"Caw!"
However, defeating the enraged Thunderbird, even in its weakened state, was unrealistic.
Although they couldn't defeat it, they had given Thunderbird a taste of its own medicine, as its body and feathers were now covered in a layer of frost.
Moreover, with the snowstorm in full swing, Jinghe had complete control of the situation.
Boom!
The terrifying thunderbolt struck again but was blocked by layers of Aurora Veil, significantly reducing its power.
The snow and frost obstructed visibility and slowed down the other Pokemon, giving them more room to maneuver.
"Hngga!"
Gramps silently appeared behind Thunderbird, holding a massive Shadow Ball.
"Caw?!"
When Thunderbird noticed the Shadow Ball, its eyes widened in surprise.
A giant Shadow Ball!
Boom!
Thunderbird staggered.
Just in time to meet Hachubo and Gigaton Smith, who were flying towards it again.
"Cha!" (Hey!)
Gigaton Smith grinned and leaped onto Thunderbird's head.
His twin ponytails danced in the air as he brought his giant hammer down with full force!
Crack!
A freezing Ice Beam burst from the top of Hachubo's head, limiting Thunderbird's ability to dodge.
Boom!
Two dull thuds echoed, and in less than a second, Sakura and the others witnessed Thunderbird being slammed into the ground like a cannonball, creating another crater.
"Koo!"
After waiting for a long time, the Bear Apprentice finally seized its chance.
Although it had already woken up, it had been storing up energy, and as Thunderbird fell, it rushed forward with an Ice Punch.
The Decapitation Moment!
Bang! Bang!
Punch after punch, each strike more powerful than the last.
"Kreeee!"
The Thunderbird on the ground flapped its wings twice, its body shimmering with countless golden electric snakes.
Judging by its posture, it seemed ready to rise again.
"Roar~"
Hachubo, cloaked in a light purple dragon robe, descended vertically, precisely smashing it back into the ground.
"Chua~?"
Have you ever heard of a hammering technique from above?
Boom!!
The rising Thunderbird was once again slammed into the ground.
"Roar~"
The Ice Nine-Tails gracefully leaped, landing beside the Thunderbird's dent, exhaling a cold breath as layers of thick, dazzling ice crystals formed on its body.
"Did we really win?" Renshi gasped, rubbing his arms in disbelief.
Although they had asked Jinghe to intervene, they never expected him to actually win.
Kyoka tilted her head slightly, glancing at the still-functioning instruments. Her lips pressed together as if she had captured everything on camera.
"No, it's not over yet," Dr. Sakura shook his head.
It wasn't that simple.
The Thunderbird was still struggling, and although the Ice Nine-Tails had frozen it, the scorching heat generated by the concentrated electric currents wouldn't be so easily frozen.
This ice encasement even provided the Thunderbird with a chance to catch its breath.
"Hngga~"
Gramps smirked, emerging from the shadows, and raised an eyebrow at the trapped Thunderbird.
Rubbing his hands together, he was about to form another massive Shadow Ball.
Around the Thunderbird.
Gigaton Smith, Hachubo, and the Bear Apprentice all assumed offensive stances.
The Thunderbird's movements momentarily halted.
It felt... these Pokemon were not normal!
Each one was stranger than the last.
"Gramps!"
At that moment.
Jinghe stepped in to stop Gramps and the others.
The Thunderbird wasn't that easy to defeat. Despite enduring a series of powerful attacks, it could still launch a strong counterattack.
It was just momentarily stunned by the sudden combo.
So, seizing this opportunity to calm the Thunderbird's rage was the right choice.
Moreover, Jinghe wanted to know why the Thunderbird had become like this.
Taking a deep breath, he met the Thunderbird's gaze through the ice crystals, his eyes locking with its bloodshot orbs.
He raised his hands.
Wave Guidance, stored in the heart! Simultaneously, the "Prism Feather" within his inner pocket responded.
Whether it was the benevolent Wave Guidance from Jinghe or the aura of the "Prism Feather," the Thunderbird's movements gradually slowed.
Whoosh—
A gentle north wind brushed past, causing the blood in the Thunderbird's eyes to gradually fade.
Feeling this wind, Jinghe's eyes twitched.
So, Water Kami, you were watching from the side, weren't you?
However.
Under the combined influence of Wave Guidance, the Prism Feather, and Water Kami, the Thunderbird's movements finally calmed.
In Jinghe's sight, the Thunderbird's Friendliness gradually increased from -50 to -30, -10, and then 10.
Witnessing this, Jinghe secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
"Nine-Tails, melt the ice crystals."
Coming back to his senses, Jinghe realized the ice crystals encasing the Thunderbird were already several meters thick!
His eyes twitched.
Wow.
The cautious nature of the Six-Tailed Pokemon hadn't changed, even after its evolution.
With such thickness, there was only one option.
"Chua!"
Gigaton Smith grinned, ready to smash the ice. Smashing ice was his favorite.
During this brief moment, Jinghe also attempted to reconnect with the Thunderbird using Wave Guidance.
[Thunderbird, did you fall into a trap?]
"Kreeee!"
Mentioning the trap, the Thunderbird's electricity surged again, and it abruptly turned its head towards the Unmanned Power Plant.
Hmm? Jinghe was momentarily taken aback.
He immediately frowned and closed his eyes.
Wave Guidance!
The vast Unmanned Power Plant was too large for Jinghe's Wave Guidance to cover entirely.
The factory's interior was intricate, with countless passages, corridors, and rooms. However, upon careful search, Jinghe discovered a large group of captured Electric-type Pokemon at the plant's core, specifically within the most critical power generation device.
These Pokemon resembled the weakened Magneton from earlier, their electricity depleted, making them appear frail.
At that moment, Jinghe understood.
So... the Thunderbird's condition had deteriorated because it had shared its electricity with these Electric-type Pokemon? But these Pokemon seemed affected by some device or influence, preventing them from storing the electricity the Thunderbird had provided.
The person responsible for setting this trap was none other than the one who had imprisoned these Electric-type Pokemon.
Most likely, it was a group of poachers targeting the Thunderbird.
No, poachers wouldn't dare target the Thunderbird. They would only capture weak wild Pokemon.
They must be organized Pokemon hunters with a specific target!
Still hiding at this point, they probably intended to further deplete the Thunderbird's energy.
[Thunderbird, do you want to take revenge personally? I also have a score to settle with these poachers and Pokemon hunters.]
"Kreeee?"
The Thunderbird looked at Jinghe with confusion.
But then, a smile slowly spread across Jinghe's face.
Addressing Gramps and Hachubo, he said:
"Gramps, Hachubo, let's give the Thunderbird a recharge!"
