Pokémon: Start with a Dragon-type Gym Leader, and pick up Guroton.

Chapter 323 Dragon Taming: I want to train a Dragon Pokémon that can beat Ice-type Pokémon!

The smoke and dust dissipated.

Gyarados lay sprawled on the ground, its eyes now completely transformed into the shape of mosquito coils.

Nirvana then directed Aegislash to come to Gyarados's side.

He crouched down, waved his hand in front of Gyarados's eyes, and listened to its breathing. Only after confirming it was breathing properly did he stand up, raise the microphone, and announce: "Gyarados is unable to battle. Gym Leader Chen Wenhai, please send out your next Pokémon!"

"Tsk, I didn't expect that even after giving it my all, I still couldn't inflict any effective damage..."

Chen Wenhai clenched his fists, feeling resentful.

In the first battle, Gyarados was just the vanguard, which was true, but it was still one of the top three in the team!

Gyarados has been with him for so many years, starting as a Magikarp and fighting its way up.

During this period, I accompanied him to countless victories and withstood countless offensives.

But the result?

In this battle, they couldn't even mount a decent counterattack.

He looked up at Li Luochen standing opposite him.

The other party showed no smugness, no mockery, and not even any expression; they simply waited quietly for him to send out the next one.

It's like waiting for something that's destined to happen.

"call……"

Chen Wenhai took a deep breath.

He knew he couldn't win.

At least—

They should at least show some of the spirit of their Minli Dojo!

The audience was completely silent.

Those present were all masters of various martial arts schools, and they were all influential figures in their own territories.

But at this moment, looking at that calm figure on the sidelines, they felt a chill run down their spines.

"Dual pseudo-gods..."

Someone nearby murmured softly, a dryness in their voice that they themselves didn't even realize: "How are we supposed to fight this?"

No one answered him.

Because everyone knows the answer.

The terrifying attacks of that Styracosaurus, the extreme attack speed of that Dragonite, and the fluid switching between its two blades...

The issue is no longer whether they are easy or difficult to deal with.

Rather, they simply didn't know how to deal with it.

Kanto region, the office of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Yu Longdu stared intently at the screen in front of him, his eyes unblinking.

When he saw Dragonite cleanly and decisively smash Gyarados with a Thunder Punch, he slammed his hand on the table, sprang up from his chair, and burst into laughter at the calm figure on the screen:

"Well done! You truly are my great-nephew!!"

His tone and expression made it seem as if he had won the game.

Kona, who was standing to the side, glanced at him sideways and paused, holding her coffee cup for a moment.

She gave a soft "heh," her tone cool: "Dragon fanatic."

Yu Longdu's smile froze.

"What do you mean by that?"

Kona took a sip of her coffee and ignored him.

dong dong...

Grandma Kikuko, leaning on her cane, slowly stood up.

Her wrinkled face wore its usual sinister smile, making it hard to tell whether she was concerned or just enjoying the spectacle.

"Speaking of which..."

As she spoke, Kikuko tapped her cane lightly on the ground, making a soft "thud," before saying softly, "Ayumi, you're not getting any younger, are you?"

The smile on Yu Longdu's face froze.

What do elders ask younger people?

That would definitely start with marriage.

The fact that Li Luochen was his nephew was common knowledge in the Kanto Alliance.

Seeing how outstanding Li Luochen is, Grandma Juzi will probably give him a lecture and then get herself married.

"You're almost forty, why haven't you found a partner yet?"

Just as I guessed!

Kikuko is here to pressure me into marriage!

Kona shook the coffee cup in her hand, a slight smile playing on her lips, but said nothing.

He just glanced at me with a "let's see how you handle this" look.

Grandma Kikuko continued tapping her cane, her tone slow and deliberate:

"Look at your nephew, so outstanding at such a young age. And you? You're already this old and still single."

She tilted her head and squinted her eyes: "This old woman is getting anxious for you."

"Adu! You should get married soon, I want to attend the banquet."

At that moment, Silva, who was doing his daily training by holding a golem in one hand, also looked over.

He maintained the posture of lifting the stone, his neck turned towards the Dragon Crossing, his eyes filled with expectation, a very pure and sincere expectation.

Dragon Crossing: ?

He slowly turned his head and looked at his colleague who was still holding up the golem, his eyes full of confusion as if to say, "Are you serious?"

"Shiba..." He took a deep breath, almost unable to hold back, "You still want to eat at the feast?"

Silva blinked, his expression innocent, but his tone was self-righteous:

"When you get married, I'll attend the wedding banquet. Isn't that just common sense?"

Then, Silva's gaze turned to Kona.

"Look at the two of you, you're about the same age, both almost forty and still single."

He blinked, pointed at Flying Dragon, then at Kona, his expression still innocent: "Why don't we just live together? That way I can at least have a feast."

"ha?"

Kona's coffee cup stopped in mid-air.

Yu Longdu opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.

Half an hour passed.

Two sharp explosions suddenly erupted in the office!

"You expect me to spend my life with this dragon-obsessed guy?! No, wait, what do you mean he's almost forty and still single?!"

Kona slammed her coffee cup down, her face flushed, veins throbbing on her forehead: "Silva, have you lost your mind?!"

On the other side, Lance, not to be outdone, blushed even redder than Kona: "I wouldn't want this cold old woman even if she offered herself to me!!"

The two men glared at each other from several meters apart, the air thick with tension in the office.

Silva still held up the golem, blinking innocently.

"oh."

He paused, then added:

"So, which of you two will treat me to a meal?"

Kona, Lance: ...Get lost!

Kona stared at Lance, slightly raising her chin: "Besides, I don't like people who can't even beat me."

Yu Longdu: "..."

He opened his mouth, then closed it again.

I really couldn't refute it.

Why? Because he's a Dragon-type trainer, while Lorelei is an Ice-type.

The elemental advantage/disadvantage is there; after so many years of playing, I've lost more than I've won—that's a fact.

He stiffened his neck, trying to struggle: "That was all because I was going easy on you before."

Kona gave a soft "heh," picked up her coffee, took a sip, and didn't even bother to give him another glance.

Dragon Crossing: ...

Silva muttered to himself, "So, are we still going to have the feast or not?"

Lance turned his head away, no longer looking at Kona.

Women with big breasts but no brains are annoying to look at.

He took a deep breath, strode towards Silva, and grabbed his arm: "Come on, let's go to the training ground for intensive training!"

Silva stumbled as he was pulled, the golem in his hand wobbling and almost falling: "Huh? Now?"

"Right now!"

Without looking back, Yu Longdu walked out, his voice drifting back from the doorway, seemingly directed at someone: "I refuse to believe it! I can't train a dragon-type that can defeat ice-type monsters?!"
