The Instant Death of a Single Blow
"From their expressions, I received a message." Maxwell crossed his arms and looked at the two people in front of him with a playful expression.
"What?" Mariana tilted her head, doubt in her eyes.
"Obviously, they don't know Bruce's identity," Maxwell laughed, seeming unfazed by the excitement around him.
Liam said weakly, "Didn't you recognize their identities a moment ago?"
Upon hearing this, Maxwell's face froze, then showed embarrassment as he argued, "Who told you they lack characteristics..."
This statement is, in fact, very reasonable. There's always a difference between a photograph and a real person. Unless someone is very recognizable, it's hard to identify them at a glance.
Even if you have an impression, you need to think for a moment before you can match their appearance with their identity.
Luka remained silent and casually said, "He's lucky to be challenging the highest difficulty directly."
Everyone laughed for a moment.
The strongest player challenging Avalon as soon as he appeared can only be said to be quite lucky.
"I hope it doesn't affect his performance in the game," Liam remarked.
It was estimated that Bruce's fighting style would have a serious psychological shadow over Katsuragi.
The game was about to begin, and facing the most powerful devil, it was expected that her mentality would explode directly.
The referee stood in the center of the field as a temporary judge. He looked around, saw both teams were ready, and said loudly, "Please send out your Pokemon!"
Due to time constraints, the battle format was 1V1, and the battle could end quickly.
Katsuragi nodded slightly, brushed her hair back from her forehead, her beautiful eyes shining, and gently called out, "Go, Meganium!"
She threw a Poke Ball, and a white light blossomed as a green Pokemon landed on the field with a 'boom.'
It had two tentacles protruding like stamens, each with an anther on top, a large pink flower around its neck, and a yellow pattern in the center.
【 Pokemon: Meganium (Grass)
Ability: Overgrow
Qualification: Elite
Level: Lv48 (Ace)】
According to the information about Katsuragi, this Meganium was one of her main Pokemon and had a brilliant performance.
At the same time, Bruce threw his Poke Ball into the air, and when a ray of red light shot out, Gardevoir's blue hair swayed as it appeared on the field.
"Shiny Gardevoir!"
Suddenly, a commotion erupted inside and outside the venue, with exclamations ringing out one after another.
"It's him!"
At the sight of the Shiny Gardevoir, Mikazuki's pupils suddenly contracted, and he looked back at Bruce with attention, recognizing his identity.
"He's the champion of the Avalon Student League, one of the most competitive players this year." Mikazuki, standing next to Katsuragi, said in a low voice, his eyes gleaming.
"So, it turned out to be him." Katsuragi's lips parted slightly, recalling Bruce's appearance in her mind, gradually overlapping with the young man with black hair before her.
As the champion of the university student league, Bruce had been highly regarded by players worldwide, and detailed information had been compiled about him.
Because of this, players around the world were more aware of Bruce's abnormality.
In his first year as a trainer, he not only became a professional trainer but also won two championships, standing out among his peers.
Bruce had certainly caught the attention of players worldwide.
And his Shiny Gardevoir and Metagross were deeply remembered by all players, as they were very recognizable Pokemon.
"Miss Katsuragi, be careful, this Gardevoir is quite powerful," Mikazuki recalled relevant information about Bruce, his eyes cold as he spoke.
"I will." Katsuragi tightened her face, raising her eyes to look at Bruce in front of her, as her heart raced a little.
She was fortunate to meet Avalon's strongest player before the competition started.
Players worldwide seemed dignified, their eyes darting back and forth between Bruce and Gardevoir, whispering to each other.
"That's good. You can know their general strength in advance," a player murmured.
"Bayne from Avalon, his Gardevoir is truly beautiful." Someone praised Gardevoir from head to toe.
Sensing the aura emanating from Gardevoir, Luka moved his lips and said softly, "Soon, Gardevoir will reach gym level."
"At this rate, maybe Blaziken has already broken through..." Maxwell said quietly, his eyes flickering.
"Very likely." Luka nodded slightly, agreeing with Maxwell's speculation.
Based on their guesses, Blaziken might have already advanced in the third stage of special training, but they didn't know if Metagross had done the same.
After all, the Gardevoir before them had a terrifying aura, infinitely close to gym level.
It seemed as if it could touch the bottleneck of gym level simply by extending a hand.
"If you add Mega Evolution, Bruce is truly invincible," Maxwell said again.
Liam smiled slightly and said, "We are a team this time, and the stronger Bruce is, the better for us."
"Exactly. Anyway, it's about defeating players from other countries." Mariana nodded in agreement.
"The battle begins!"
In the noisy atmosphere of the battle, the referee suddenly spoke.
Bruce and Katsuragi looked at each other, and immediately their voices sounded on the field at the same time:
"Meganium, Petal Blizzard!"
"Gardevoir, Mystical Fire!"
Facing Avalon's strongest competitor, Katsuragi dared not be careless, and once the battle began, she did her utmost.
As the commands fell, Meganium lifted its head to the sky and let out a cry, as the field violently filled with flowers falling like snow, sweeping across the entire arena!
At that moment, the falling flowers seemed to turn into sharp blades, glinting with cold light, attacking Gardevoir one after another.
Gardevoir's eyes were calm; it ignored everything in front of it and opened its mouth, during which an explosion of orange fire erupted, forming a growing column of fire!
!
The Mystical Fire erupted suddenly, cutting through all the falling flowers in an instant, burning them to ashes, and they fell to the ground.
"This kind of power!" Mikazuki watched this scene, his complexion changed drastically, and his eyes showed surprise.
Even fire-type moves used by fire-type Pokemon don't necessarily have such authority.
The wave of heat was spreading, and the growing column of fire struck Meganium, which couldn't dodge in time, and the terrifying force of the impact sent it soaring several meters into the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
Boom!
Meganium fell to the ground, motionless.
The waiter's mouth dropped open. He looked down and saw that Meganium's eyes had turned into circles.
His face was filled with disbelief; he was momentarily speechless, and after a while, he said hoarsely, "Mega... Meganium is unable to battle!"
For a moment, there was a deathly silence both inside and outside the arena.
