Pokémon: My Online Friend Is Cynthia
Chapter 52: World of Geniuses, Here I Come!
Chapter 52: Chapter 52: World of Geniuses, Here I Come!
Dozens of Pokémon charged out of the arena in a mighty tide.
Urshifu used Brick Break to snap off branches from the decorative trees at the entrance, staying at the rear to sweep away everyone’s footprints.
The flying Aerodactyl led the way, helping everyone search for a resting place where they could hide and find food.
After running for an entire day and night, Aerodactyl finally found a vast primeval forest.
Once they hid inside the forest, everyone was completely safe.
They found all kinds of Berries in the forest, gathered together, sang songs, and celebrated their new lives.
Urshifu was also unanimously chosen as their leader, guiding everyone to live in this primeval forest.
He taught them how to train and how to deal with the underground arena’s possible pursuit.
After settling down, Urshifu’s farming bloodline began to awaken.
He led everyone in taking the seeds from the Berries they found and planting them.
The saplings near the fruit trees were transplanted to suitable locations.
At night, Urshifu was eating Berries and singing when his vision suddenly went dark, and he returned to the real world.
[This simulation has ended]
[Simulation evaluation: S]
[Calculating rewards...]
[Reward calculation complete]
[S-rank evaluation. Attribute rewards obtained: Fighting-type Affinity +5, Kubfu’s Fighting organ: Dantian]
Dantian!
With a dantian, he could become a one-in-ten-thousand peerless expert.
The unmatched hard fist...
Here I bloody come!
If he used Stephen Chow’s film Kung Fu Hustle as a comparison, the suited man who had been punched to death by Urshifu was Coolie, the master of the Twelve Kicks of Tam.
Although he had been killed by one punch, one still had to admit that the suited man really was an expert.
It was just that he had faced Urshifu.
And after obtaining Kubfu’s dantian, Julian would be Sing after learning the Buddha’s Palm.
Not only would he possess peerless martial arts, Bajiquan, he would also be a one-in-ten-thousand martial arts prodigy.
[Item rewards obtained: Item: Scroll of Darkness, Divine Bird’s Cage ×3]
There were not many items from the S-rank evaluation, but every single one was high quality.
The Divine Bird’s Cage was the ring the arena had used to imprison Moltres.
This thing would have no problem capturing even the three legendary birds of Shamouti Island.
But this kind of technological item was more suitable for collectors with evil intentions.
As a Trainer, Julian had no use for something like this.
[S-rank evaluation. Host may designate the type for the next simulation]
[Time remaining until next simulation: 6 days, 23 hours, 58 minutes, 42 seconds]
Julian rubbed his chin, wondering which type he should choose for the next simulation.
What a difficult decision.
Forget it.
First, he would look at the Scroll of Darkness.
"System, take out the Scroll of Darkness."
A pitch-black hanging scroll appeared in Julian’s hands.
He opened it.
Sure enough, it was the same Scroll of Darkness he had observed in the simulation world.
The true meaning of Bajiquan on it was something that felt fresh no matter how many times he viewed it.
And practising Bajiquan beside the Scroll of Darkness would grant a boost.
After hanging the Scroll of Darkness on the wall, Julian lay back on his bed and pulled the blanket over himself.
"System, extract the dantian!"
[Issuing Kubfu’s Fighting organ: Dantian to the host]
As expected, a stream of heat appeared in Julian’s lower abdomen.
Very quickly, this stream of true qi went from warm to scorching.
Like a giant dragon, it crashed back and forth inside Julian’s abdomen.
Julian’s vision went black, and he fell unconscious.
As expected, extracting the dantian was even more painful than last time’s Psychic Constitution.
Early the next morning, Maylene knocked loudly on Julian’s door.
"Julian, get up!"
"Get up, we have to go participate in the tournament!"
"Get up and make breakfast!"
Julian got out of bed and experimentally moved his limbs.
With every movement, he could feel that his body had grown much stronger.
He tried circulating Bajiquan’s breathing method.
A stream of true qi flowed from his dantian to his limbs and bones, strengthening his tendons and bones.
"Julian, hurry and get up! We’ll be late for the tournament!"
"Hurry and get up to make breakfast!"
Julian opened the door.
Maylene frowned as she looked at him.
"Julian, why do I feel like you became a lot more mighty and domineering today...?"
Julian rubbed her head.
"When is your brother not mighty and domineering? All right, I’m going to make breakfast."
Using the tournament as an excuse.
She just wanted him to get up early and cook.
Tournament...
Come to think of it, there really was a tournament.
After spending so long in the simulation world and single-mindedly practising Bajiquan, he had almost forgotten about Veilstone Department Store’s anniversary tournament.
The fact that the system’s simulations had time limits was not without reason.
S-rank evaluation increased type affinity by 5.
A-rank evaluation increased type affinity by 0.5.
B-rank evaluation increased type affinity by 0.1.
Sure enough, he still had to aim for S-rank evaluations.
Before the simulation began, Julian’s Fighting-type Affinity had been [Fighting: 0.82].
Now it was [Fighting: 9.21].
The S-rank evaluation added 5, and just absorbing Kubfu’s dantian had added 3.39.
As Julian continued practising Bajiquan later, his Fighting-type Affinity would still rise.
And after obtaining the dantian, Julian would completely shake off the label of being physically weak and sickly.
He could now be described as naturally superhuman.
For breakfast, he simply pressure-cooked five pounds of red-braised beef and fried fifty eggs.
Then he boiled two large buckets of noodles.
Julian easily lifted the buckets filled with noodles.
It felt no different from lifting them empty-handed.
The two large buckets of noodles were eaten clean by the siblings.
Maylene looked at the empty buckets in surprise.
"It’s gone... How is it gone?"
Terrible!
Julian had forgotten that after fusing with the dantian, his appetite would definitely increase massively again. He had still cooked according to the old amount.
Of course it was not enough.
"The tournament is about to start. There’s definitely no time to make more breakfast. Let’s just eat something outside."
Maylene sighed.
"Fine."
Darius walked out of his room yawning, looked at the pot, then looked at the buckets.
"You ate it all? What about mine?"
Maylene pouted.
"Forget you, I’m not even full yet. Julian ate it all!"
Darius was somewhat surprised.
"Julian, since when did you become able to eat this much too?"
Being able to eat was a very important indicator for a martial artist.
Julian becoming able to eat meant his Fighting ability was improving.
Veilstone Gym had a successor.
"Come on. Your dad will treat you to breakfast!"
At the breakfast shop, the family of three contributed ten beef burgers, ten pork burgers, twenty ham buns, five cream cakes, and ten litres of milk to Veilstone City’s GDP.
"You two go compete without worry. Leave Veilstone Gym to me."
Recently, Veilstone Game Corner had not put up any interesting Pokémon prizes.
Darius planned to rest for a while.
The siblings arrived at Veilstone Stadium, where there was already a sea of people.
When they reached the players’ lounge, Julian discovered that this was not the two hundred or so Trainers he had been told about when registering.
There were at least more than four hundred Trainers.
Very quickly, the staff called the participants to draw lots and divide into groups.
Julian was placed in Group G.
Maylene was in Group A.
When it was Julian’s turn to battle, he released Hakamo-o from his Poké Ball.
Looking at Hakamo-o’s back, a subtle feeling appeared in his heart.
He seemed able to vaguely sense Hakamo-o’s physical condition, and how much power Hakamo-o’s Fighting-type moves could produce.
Faced with attacks, how strong Hakamo-o’s endurance was.
Even the fighting spirit Hakamo-o was currently releasing was so clear.
So this is Pokémon battling in the eyes of a genius Trainer?
