Chapter 59 Revenge Begins
Chapter 59 Revenge Begins
Lin Ye leaned against the trunk of a large old tree, gazing calmly at the night sky before him.
Suddenly, a pale blue firework burst open, as if outlining some kind of mark.
Lin Ye's gaze sharpened, and he murmured:
"Zorua, it's time to act."
The little fox emerged from the shadows, a fierce glint in its eyes, and then transformed into an armored bird that reflected a metallic sheen, carrying Lin Ye into the sky.
Having learned some of the techniques of using "illusion" from old Zoroark, when transformed into Skarmory, little Zoroark's eyesight, while not yet comparable to that of a real Skarmory with "sharp eyes," far surpasses that of ordinary Pokémon.
Following the direction indicated by the Candlelight Spirit Mark, it wasn't long before they spotted the two members of the Poison Blade Society from their elevated position.
Perhaps to avoid attracting attention, the two dared not be too arrogant and rode two land-based Pokémon, namely Taro and Dodrio, on their journey.
The "Armored Bird" discovered the culprit that had brought it painful memories, let out a shriek, and swooped down.
Duduli keenly sensed the danger, stopped abruptly, and braked sharply, with all three heads simultaneously emitting warning chimes.
A look of surprise flashed across the eyes of the man in the shirt on their back, and then he released several Pokémon in quick succession, surrounding the two of them.
Seeing that its opponent was so perceptive and had missed the opportunity to launch a surprise attack, the "Armored Bird" simply abandoned the attack and instead landed a dozen meters away from the two of them.
Lin Ye leaped off the back of the "Armored Bird" and coldly swept his gaze over the two men. The bald man riding the Tauros was none other than the psychologist he had met once before—Rhodes.
The other bespectacled man riding a tuk-tuk is undoubtedly the Poison Blade gang leader codenamed "Scarface."
Ironically, the two goals that Lin Ye wanted to achieve in this operation coincided with each other.
This allows him to achieve two goals through this battle: first, to avenge Zoroa, and then to take Tanjiro away with him, saving him the trouble of rushing between the two.
"Is it you?"
"What? Rod, you know him!"
"Boss, this kid came to my mental health clinic a while ago and said a bunch of nonsensical things."
But now it seems he probably knew our plan back then, and used the opportunity to probe my strengths and weaknesses.
"Did you give yourself away?"
"Boss, it couldn't be me!"
"Alright, he dared to show up alone to intercept us, so he must have some confidence. Let's deal with him first."
Yes~
Rhodes responded and then released several Pokémon, most of which were of "excellent" caliber!
With the addition of Tauros and Dodrio, the two of them together released more than ten "excellent" Pokémon, surrounding Lin Ye and Skarmory.
Faced with the overwhelming odds, Lin Ye remained calm and composed. With a fierce look, he moved his shadow and summoned Gastly and Froslass in succession!
The former was only "excellent" and was in its initial form. Rhode saw it and snorted disdainfully.
But when he saw the Snow Fairy, exuding a powerful "professional" aura, float out, his face immediately darkened, and he unconsciously took a step back behind his boss, "Scarface."
The latter glanced at it, frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, looking as if it was expected. He then threw out a Poké Ball and released a large black snake.
The black snake has a golden lower jaw, and its head and back are covered with golden armor. But the most eye-catching feature is the sharp blade that is attached to the tip of its tail.
"It really is a pike-toothed snake!"
Lin Ye was equally unsurprised, calmly watching the serpent's waving tail easily slice through the surrounding rock and wood, and said indifferently:
"It truly lives up to its 'professional' standard, but if that's all you're capable of, then you can rest assured and leave!"
As soon as the words fell, accompanied by a powerful clang, the sound of metal clashing, two sword sheaths flew out from the shadows beneath their feet, unfurling the swords and dancing in unison, drawing streaks of wind in the air.
"What?! You're so young and you already have two 'professional' Pokémon? Which family's second-generation Pokémon are you?!"
"Second-generation? That's an insult in my hometown, but it doesn't matter, we're sending you to meet your maker anyway."
After saying that, he drew both swords from the double sheaths and slashed at the Spoon Serpent. The serpent quickly swung its tail and used the sharp blade behind it to block.
"Ding~"
Amidst the clanging of metal and the spray of sparks, the two exchanged several blows in the blink of an eye, displaying themselves as two master swordsmen.
Although the Spoon Serpent advanced earlier and its energy fluctuations were noticeably more solid, the Single-Sheath Sword held an advantage in terms of swordsmanship comprehension, item enhancement, and attributes, thus firmly suppressing the former.
Meanwhile, facing the combined attack of "Scarface" and a dozen or so Pokémon from Rhodes, Froslass single-handedly stopped them all.
In other words, at this moment, the two "professional" Pokémon, Saber and Froslass, alone have restrained all the Pokémon that the two opponents have brought out.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zoroia, who had been eager for revenge, maintained his "Armored Bird" form and flew towards Rod Burst, a silver whirlwind enveloping him.
Gastly had already heard its story, so it naturally wouldn't compete with it. It glanced at it and then set its sights on the leader, "Scar."
Faced with the charging steel giant bird, Rhodes had no choice but to unleash his last hidden trump card, which turned out to be a Pokémon that is very common in the Hoenn region—Longnoseleaf.
Unfortunately, the "excellent" Longnose Leaf in front of me is a Grass/Dark type Pokémon.
Faced with the attack of the Skarmory, an incarnation of Zoroah who had absorbed two "Lampberries" and whose strength was close to the peak of "Excellent" level, it was heavily smashed away in a single exchange.
The armored bird's charge only slowed down slightly, but it still slammed into Rhodes.
The little fox's temporarily donned steel body instantly shattered the enemy's flesh and blood upon first sight.
Just like that, the "psychological expert" who had felt some pressure when Lin Ye first transmigrated a few days ago was now utterly destroyed by Zoroya's attack, leaving no trace of his true identity.
However, unlike Zoroa's successful defeat of the enemy, Gastly encountered a major problem.
This was because "Scarface" also threw out a Poké Ball when Gastly attacked, releasing a strong Pokémon wearing shorts and with four arms, which was Machamp of the Fighting type.
The monstrous creature raised its head and roared, instantly unleashing a "professional-level" pressure no weaker than that of the Spoon Serpent.
The next moment, its two arms flashed with dark light, and one of them grabbed at the charging Gastly. The terrifying Dark attribute energy fluctuation startled the Gastly's soul, causing it to instantly change the direction of its attack and narrowly dodge.
When its grab missed, the Mighty stomped its feet, cracking the ground, and burst out of the ground, catching up with Gastly. Its other arm, imbued with the energy of "Knock Down," slashed down fiercely.
Although Machamp isn't an agile Pokémon, its level is just too high, and its stats are what they are.
Moreover, with its super strength, its speed in a straight line is nothing short of terrifying.
Given Gastly's defense, if it were to be hit head-on by this powerful Dark-type attack, there's a very high chance it would be completely destroyed!
