Chapter 582 VS Kawu
Chapter 582 VS Kawu
After saying goodbye to Loz, the group checked into the Shybud Hotel at the front desk.
This time, two rooms were booked again.
However, it's different from before.
Mary slept in a room by herself, while Li Luochen shared a room with Katishia and Yuri.
When Mary took the room key, her gaze lingered on the three of them for a moment. In the end, she said nothing, only sighed softly, and turned to walk towards her room.
Katishia was quite happy. As soon as she entered the room, she pounced on the double bed, spreading her limbs out and taking over the middle spot.
Yuri stood outside the door, blushing, seemingly a little embarrassed.
"What are you standing there for? Come in." Li Luochen didn't even turn his head.
"Okay." Yuri obediently closed the door.
.......
the next morning.
When Yuri sat up in bed, she felt as if all the bones in her body had been taken apart and put back together.
My lower back aches, my back hurts, and it's hard to even lift my arms.
She rubbed her lower back, wincing and gasping for breath several times.
Then Yuri turned to look at Katishia.
Katishia had already changed her clothes and was standing in front of the mirror tying her hair, humming a little tune she had heard somewhere.
He was lively and energetic, as if nothing had happened last night.
Yuri looked down at herself, then at Katishia, and was suddenly plunged into deep self-doubt.
No, is there really such a big difference in physical constitution between people?
Li Luochen wrapped his arms around Youli's waist from behind, rested his chin gently on her shoulder, and kissed her cheek: "What's wrong? Want to stay in bed?"
Yuri froze as if struck by lightning.
She already had a sore back, and when he hugged her like that, she couldn't move at all. The places on her cheeks where he had kissed her burned up at a visible speed, turning red all the way to the tips of her ears.
"Hate!"
Yuri raised her hand to push his face, but the force was weak; it was more like rubbing than pushing.
Li Luochen stopped teasing her and, with a forceful pull, scooped Youli up from the bed.
"Let's go, brush your teeth and wash your face." Li Luochen carried her to the bathroom.
"I can walk by myself..." Yuri buried her face in his shoulder, but her legs showed no sign of struggling.
......
After brushing his teeth and washing his face, Li Luochen changed into a clean and neat set of clothes and tightened the giant wristband on his wrist.
"Hey~ you two hurry up~"
Katishia had already slung her bag over her shoulder and was standing at the door urging them on.
Yuri followed Li Luochen out of the room and bumped into the door of the opposite room opening at the same time.
Mary had already changed into a neat tracksuit and was ready to face today's match.
The four of them set off together, preparing to challenge Gym Leader Kawu.
The Mech Arena is not far away.
The match schedule for today has already lit up on the giant screen.
Li Luochen and his group crossed the square and spotted a sprightly figure in the distance at the entrance to the arena.
The owner of the Kawu Pavilion was already waiting there.
The elderly fire-type gym leader had his gray hair neatly combed and wore a crisp red uniform.
He was like a quiet flame, unassuming yet formidable.
"I heard that Gym Leader Kabu came from the Hoenn region in his early years. Although it's the third stop chosen by many trainers, he actually has the strength of an Elite Four member!"
Yuri spoke softly in the waiting area, her tone tinged with awe.
Li Luochen looked up at Kawu, where the gray-haired old man was resting with his eyes closed, his hands behind his back, and his face showed no emotion.
"Born in the Hoenn region, specializing in Fire-type, and possessing Elite Four-level strength, he is indeed formidable."
Li Luochen played with the enormous wristband on his wrist, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Only an opponent like this is worth the effort for the Queen of the Ridge to put in her full strength.
He patted the hunting ball at his waist and strode into the battlefield.
As he brushed past Kawu, he slightly raised his eyes, revealing a sharp fighting spirit.
Those eyes were like embers still burning in the ashes; even a brief glance from them made Li Luochen's back tense slightly.
Kawu then entered the arena.
A burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from the audience, demonstrating the veteran curator's popularity in the Galar region.
The commentator's voice rang out at the opportune moment: "Ladies and gentlemen, in today's first match, the challenger is Li Luochen from the Eastern Region, who will be challenging our Kawu Gym Leader!"
"What kind of sparks will this cross-regional showdown ignite? Let's wait and see!"
......
Kawu stood behind the command platform, took out a Poké Ball from his waist, tossed it up and down on his fingertips twice, and then threw it onto the field.
"Nine-Tails, I choose you!"
A golden fox Pokémon appears, its nine fluffy tails unfurling like a fan behind it, and a blazing sun emerges.
It is precisely its characteristic—sunlight!
"Master Kawu's first Nine-Tails! It's his classic opening move. It looks like the old man is going to be hot from start to finish today!" the commentator exclaimed passionately.
Li Luochen tossed the hunting ball, which burst into red light in the air.
The Crowned King landed steadily, still riding the Spirit Horse with its jet-black mane and shrouded in a ghostly light.
The Spirit Horse raised its head and snorted, dark light spots blooming beneath its hooves, and the temperature in the entire arena seemed to cool down a bit because of the appearance of this shadowy figure.
"Oh~! Challenger Li Luochen's starting lineup is still Calyrex! The champion duo, who crushed their opponents in three consecutive matches at the Grass Road Gym and Water Boat Gym, can they continue their legendary run against the Fire-type master Kawu today?"
The commentator's voice carried throughout the venue through the speakers, instantly raising the audience's expectations.
Kawu looked at Calyrex, her brow twitching slightly before a faint smile appeared on her face: "The Ghost-type, huh? Interesting."
"Nine-Tails, test your skills with Flamethrower first!"
Kawu raised his hand and waved.
Nine-Tailed Fox raised its head, and all nine tails simultaneously burst into dazzling flames. The sunshine overhead made the flames burn even more fiercely, and the temperature of the entire arena jumped several degrees in that instant.
With its massive jaws wide open, the Nine-Tailed Fox unleashed a thick, crimson flame that swept towards the Crowned Queen.
With the added benefit of sunshine, the power of this flamethrower is quite considerable.
Even before the flames got close, the Spirit Horse's mane was already fluttering in the heatwave.
Li Luochen narrowed his eyes and quickly responded: "Use your mental focus to deflect the flames!"
The Crowned Queen's eyes shone blue, and a torrent of powerful superpowers surged forth.
The fierce jet of flame abruptly stopped just meters away, as if the flames had been choked by an invisible hand.
It was then swept away by the superpower and turned to blast back at the Nine-Tails.
"That move again!" The commentator slammed his fist on the table excitedly. "Raycorona used her psychic powers to return the flamethrower to its original source! This kind of 'fighting fire with fire' tactic is always a feast for the eyes, no matter how many times you watch it!"
Nine-Tailed Fox leaped gracefully backward, avoiding the flames that bounced back at it, and then spat out another fireball, transforming into a large starfish shape!
Exactly, the large characters explode with heat!
