Chapter 947 The Axe-Splitting Mantis of Tengu Mountain
"Flying knee strike!"
As Ash's voice rang out, a crimson shooting star flashed across the sky, and Locust's knee strike ripped through the heavens like a meteor.
Boom!!! The Growlithe was sent flying by a single blow, crashing into the rock wall like a cannonball.
Ash crossed his arms and shook his head: "Why did you force me to take action... Do you give up yet?"
"I'm impressed~" Sari nodded so hard her head almost flew out of existence.
“That’s more like it.” Ash nodded and recalled his Slug: “Let’s go, let’s go to the ship for a cup of coffee and tell you your information.”
"Aww~" Sally obediently followed Ash's steps. Roy, watching from the side, was amazed.
"Why isn't she afraid of me even though I won?" Roy scratched his head, puzzled, and followed behind.
On the deck, the duel between Rico and Diana had come to an end.
The Magic Masked Cat and Arcanine fought to a draw, which is already quite impressive.
It's worth noting that Diana's Arcanine was at a very high level. Even with type advantage, it managed a draw against Riko, forcing Diana to acknowledge Riko's rapid improvement in strength.
"Everyone, the excitement is over." Ash clapped his hands. "According to this Miss Sali's information, one of the six heroes, Scizor, should be on Mount Tengu near Kitakami Village."
"Huh? So close!" Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
"Diana, what you just said about four heroes being able to use the Crystal Pool?" Fried looked at her with interest.
"Ah~ I'll stay on the Brave Onion for the next couple of days to rest. Finding the Mantis as soon as possible is the most important thing for you." Diana nodded.
"Alright! Oreo, get ready, we're about to set sail," Fried announced loudly.
"Okay!" Oreo replied, raising her hand.
……
Half an hour later… everyone looked at the distant mountains, speechless. Oreo wiped the sweat from her brow and grumbled, “Just a little gas pedal and you’ve got me all fired up…”
"Hahaha..." Everyone chuckled wryly. Who would have thought they'd be so close?
"Alright, everyone get some rest. We'll head into the mountains first thing tomorrow morning." Xiao Zhi nodded.
……
The next day, Ash got up very early and set off up the mountain with Sali, Freed, and the three little ones.
"Based on the photos taken by Sali, you can see aquatic plants and white rocks with chopping marks."
"Given the surrounding fog, I guess it must live near water!" Dian Dian speculated based on the picture.
“This area is quite small.” Fried, riding his fire-breathing dragon, surveyed the area from mid-air: “There’s a waterfall on the mountain!”
“That should be it.” A flash of blue light appeared in Ash’s eyes. “Then, from now on, Riko… the three of you are not allowed to make a move until the other party shows up.”
"Huh?" Roy tilted his head in confusion.
“I also have a Scizor, that guy is a pure warrior.” Ash explained, “If you want him to come with you, the favor of Taleborg and the other six heroes won’t work.”
Think about the results of your special training. The three of you will be fighting it later.
*Gulp...* The three little ones swallowed hard. They remembered the scene of being chased all over the jungle.
"Awooo!!" Soon, the group arrived at the terrace halfway up the mountain, where a group of Houndoom and Houndoom surrounded them.
"Wow, there really are wild Pokémon that dare to come here." Fried shook his head.
“Iron Warrior,” Xiao Zhi said calmly.
With a whoosh, space distorted, and the Iron Warrior, carrying the naginata, flew out.
Boom! With a combination of Brick Break and Wave Missile, the two hands cleaved downwards, carving a huge trench in the ground, sending the nearby Derubis flying in a sorry state.
"Awooo!" The leader of the Houndooms tucked its tail between its legs and ran away.
“Commendable courage, but a waste of life…” Sari immediately took a series of photos.
Having dealt with the pack of vicious dogs, the group continued on their journey.
Just as we reached the second peak, a sudden gust of wind swept down from the sky! It was Vulture Na!
"Raichu!!" Raichu leaped into the air and unleashed a Volt attack, intercepting Raichu mid-flight.
Boom!! Vulture Na was blown apart in mid-air by the Volt attack and fell straight down.
"Sobres!" From the shadows, Azure Flame Blade Demon suddenly appeared, swinging his greatsword with a sudden burst.
Boom! A wave of flame shot out suddenly, and a wail came from the forest as a cunning tengu fell from a tree branch.
"Goodness..." Shali couldn't help but stick out her tongue; this person was too fierce.
"I think I know why Scizor lives here." Ash smirked.
"The wild Pokémon here are quite aggressive."
Despite the Iron Warrior and Azure Blade Demon emanating an aura that kept strangers at bay, Pokémon continued to emerge and provoke them along the way.
Fortunately, Ash's two Pokémon stood firm, and neither of them could break through their defenses.
Finally, the surroundings quieted down, and a cascading waterfall came into view.
"Look at you guys. Why is it so peaceful around here?" Ash asked with interest.
"Um... because fighting isn't allowed where you drink water?" Roy scratched his head and said.
Little Dot immediately covered her face, and Rico was both amused and exasperated: "This... it shouldn't be like that, right?"
"It's probably because there are apex predators here," Dotdot affirmed. "This is most likely the territory of the Scyther."
“That’s right.” Ash’s gaze fell on the waterfall in front of him.
A piece of driftwood was drifting downstream from upstream.
Whoosh! A flash of cold light, and the waterfall instantly stopped flowing, the driftwood smoothly splitting in two.
Ash and his friends suddenly fell silent.
That silky smooth cut, and that fleeting glimpse just now! It's it! A praying mantis!!
And that thing under this guy's neck is Lucius's Poké Ball!
The six heroes are definitely in!
"What should we do, teacher?" Dian Dian asked instinctively.
Ash led Pikachu to a rock a little further away, sat cross-legged, took a sip of his juice, and said, "What else can we do but fight it!"
"Uh..." Riko and the other two looked at the waterfall with some trepidation.
Just as they were still hesitating, bang!! One of the Ancient Poké Balls on Riko's waist activated, revealing Lapras, one of the Six Heroes.
"Ooh~" Without warning, a freezing ray shot out as soon as I looked up!
Crack! Crack! In an instant, the waterfall was frozen into a glacier.
The next second—BOOM!!! Ice shards flew out, and a scyther Pokémon with two stone axes suddenly appeared.
"Oh my god!!" Laplace, standing to the side, didn't hesitate and jumped up, delivering a devastating blow.
"Axe~" The axe-splitting mantis leaped back to create distance, and at the same time, its two axes glowed with a bluish-green light.
"Oh!!" Laplace raised his head and gathered his strength, the icy light continuously converging.
Riko and her two companions, hiding in the back, paced anxiously: What do we do? Please stop fighting!
Who would have thought that the six heroes' Mantis was even more irritable than Laplace, the pirate, and started fighting with his companion right away!
