Pokémon: Ash's Rebirth World Line Concludes

Chapter 1005 Facing the Champion

At this moment, a number of senior students have gathered on the playground of Grape Academy.

Ms. Huangbo, who was in charge of the physical education class, once again took on the important role of referee.

Led by President Yeji, the three Padiya Four Heavenly Kings currently at the academy—Shinri, Hachisaku, and Popi—were prominently featured.

"Hey, it seems like we've made a bit of a commotion," Ulte asked, sounding a little socially awkward.

"Nemo and Peony are the only two champion-level students in the academy. Competing with them, along with President Ye Ci's attention, will definitely attract a lot of attention."

Moreover…” Pipa looked at Ash.

"Many of these upperclassmen are former members of Team Celestial. They all remember Ash's kindness, which is also a form of silent support."

This is to let you know that Grape Academy is on the side of the Ascended Volt Attack Team!

Ulte looked curiously at the tall Piper: "So, why aren't you a champion? And are all the strongest people in your school girls?"

"Hmm...you'll find out soon enough." Papa's lips twitched violently.

Ash stood behind the four little ones with his arms crossed, looking at the lively surroundings and couldn't help but laugh.

"Let Grape Academy witness your growth. Roy, go and get a great start."

"Yes, teacher!" Roy rubbed his shoulders and gave a confident smile.

With teammates by his side and teachers behind him, his confident opponent was none other than the champion-level student council president, Nemo!

"Roy, let's have a battle that gets everyone fired up!" Nemo challenged Roy across the battle arena.

With Ash's return and his best friend Pippa's renewed spirits, Nemo is filled with excitement. She longs for a thrilling battle!

“Senior Nemo, come on!” Roy nodded earnestly.

Teacher Obi raised her hands: "One-on-one duels, let's begin! Both sides, please bring out your Pokémon!!"

"Babu Groundhog, let's have a battle that will paralyze us." Nemo immediately unleashed her trump card, the Electric Mouse.

"Lucario, I choose you!" Roy lowered his head, threw the ball, and was beaming with pride.

Watching the other person's retreating figure, Ash rubbed his nose. The brat was really starting to look younger. Especially after Freed entrusted Captain Pikachu to Roy.

The figure with Pikachu on its back began to overlap more and more with itself.

With his increasingly mature interpersonal skills, Roy is truly more like Ash than any of his imitators.

"The match begins!" Huang Bo swung her arm fiercely. The duel officially began!

"It's starting! It's starting!" Poppy cheered excitedly.

"President, do you think this child can reach Nemo's level?" As a teacher at the school, Hachisaku's eyes held both expectation and scrutiny.

“It’s not a question of whether he can achieve it.” Ye Ci looked at Roy with the same expectation: “It’s a question of whether he can surpass, whether he can catch up with his teacher.”

"Babu Groundhog, Sonic Punch!!" Nemo launched the first attack as soon as she entered the arena.

"Lucario, Quick-Handed Defense!" Roy said calmly.

Lucario is not afraid of speed, but as fellow fighters, whoever runs out of energy first will be vulnerable!

Having trained with Ash and Alan so many times, Roy is no longer as clumsy as he was at the beginning when it comes to using Lucario.

"Lu!" Facing Babuto's lightning-fast series of punches, Lucario unleashed his Aura, precisely combining punches, palm strikes, and elbow strikes to receive every single one.

The moment the enemy's relentless onslaught ceased, a glint of light flashed in Roy and Lucario's eyes simultaneously!

"Hey, this kid." Xiao Zhi showed a hint of pride.

Unlike waveguide users, ordinary people cannot use waveguides on their own, but Lucario can!

The same applies to Cucumber Korne, where Lucario actively controls the waveguide to achieve a unified connection.

Roy's shiny Lucario has learned to share the Aura Power with its trainer, which will elevate Roy's ability to seize opportunities to a higher level.

"Work hard!"

*Thud!* Passing through Babuto's fist shadow, Lucario struck Babuto's chest with a palm strike, unleashing tremendous force.

Boom!! Lucario unleashed its fighting spirit, sending Babubo flying backward.

"It's not over yet!" Nemo reacted quickly: "Baboon Groundhog, Electric Shock!!"

"Babu!!" Babu suddenly unleashed a powerful surge of electricity, blasting towards Lucario.

Boom!! Lucario crossed his arms to block, but was also pushed back several steps by the blast.

"Oh~ that Nemo, not bad!" Ulte grinned.

“Of course, Nemo is a true champion.” Piper exclaimed admiringly.

"Let's end this test here." Nemo took out the Crystal Bead and looked at Roy with piercing eyes.

"Ah~ Let's settle this once and for all!" Roy raised his right hand, his blood boiling, and pressed down on the Evolution Key Stone.

Whoosh!! A dazzling light of evolution shone forth, and Lucario shook its arms, revealing the figure of Mega Lucario from the radiance.

"Shine, bloom, my treasure! Babutopug!!" Nemo threw out the Crystal Bead at the same time. The moment the crystal shattered, Babutopug was surrounded by the light of the Crystal Bead, and a Fighting-type totem appeared above its head.

"This is Mega Evolution, Roy, you've really gotten stronger." Nemo exclaimed, looking at the imposing Mega Lucario opposite her.

“Come on, Nemo!” Roy raised his right fist with a resounding voice.

"Babu Tubo, close combat!!"

"Lucario, we'll use close-range combat too!!"

"Eight no no no no~"

"The road is wide, wide, wide!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Both sides unleashed fierce battle energy, their overwhelming fist shadows clashing head-on!

The dazzling close-quarters combat was thrilling to watch.

"Wow, that's amazing! So incredible!!"

"To be able to match Nemo-senpai and be part of the Volt Attack Team, that's impressive."

"Its power is truly immeasurable."

The surrounding students erupted in a gasp of admiration.

On the field, the two Pokémon continued their relentless attacks with their iron fists.

"The Crystal Beads grant enhanced moves, while Mega Evolution brings an overall improvement in stats," Elite Four member Cindy said with interest.

"I wonder who will have the last laugh."

"Roykaku is so cool!" Poppi clapped his hands and laughed.

"Oh dear, Poppi-chan, you're not old enough to praise a boy's good looks yet," President Yaji teased with a smile.

Boom!! In the arena, both of them simultaneously landed a punch on each other. Babutobo's iron fist smashed into Lucario's chest, while Lucario swung a punch at his opponent's face.

"No way!" Babu Tubo gritted his teeth and looked at his opponent.

"Lu~" Lucario grinned, staring at his opponent with equal defiance.

"Now's the time! Finish him off!" Roy suddenly changed his attack: "Alloy Claws!"

"Lucario!" Lucario suddenly opened his arms, and the aura he had been gathering suddenly pushed Babuto back a step. Then, he crossed his iron claws and swung them down!

Boom! The crystals surrounding Babu Tubo shattered, and he collapsed to the ground, unwilling to get up.

A moment of silence fell over the surroundings, broken only by the announcement from Teacher Huangbo: "The winner is Roy!!"

"We won!" Ash shouted, raising his hand, and the students erupted in cheers!

"We won!! Roy was amazing!!"

"Phew~" Roy recalled Lucario, looked down and smiled faintly: "At least I didn't lose face for the teacher."
