Chapter 835 - 442: Gym Battles Elite—Defeating One, Crippling Another, Is This Even Fair?
On the arena, pillar after pillar of golden lightning struck Snorlax.
Its physical strength kept diminishing, although its robust physical strength and strong special defense could resist some special attacks, they couldn’t withstand such continuous depletion.
Several times, it wanted to counterattack, but Jolteon’s position changed too quickly to lock onto.
Trainer Ash did not speak, as if accepting his fate.
In the audience, Serena’s fingers unconsciously clenched the hem of her skirt.
Her gaze closely followed the enormous figure in the field, constantly enduring attacks, her red lips slightly pursed; at this rate, Snorlax would lose.
"Don’t worry." Misty’s voice came from beside her, with barely any worry in her words.
Serena turned her head and found Misty also watching Ash, but her emerald green eyes showed no panic, instead full of confidence.
"Ash isn’t the kind of person who would just stand there letting the opponent attack. He’s certainly thinking of a solution right now."
Serena was startled for a moment, then looked at the boy standing in the command seat.
Indeed, Ash’s face showed no anxiety or panic; he simply watched the continuously shifting golden streak in the field, his gaze focused and steady as if waiting for something.
In fact, just as Misty said, Ash was not one to sit around waiting for doom; he was waiting—for a chance to counterattack!
In the state of Aura Fusion, he shared perception with Snorlax.
He could see Jolteon’s movement track through Snorlax’s eyes, feel the pain each time Thunderbolt hit through Snorlax’s body, and most importantly, he could sense Jolteon’s actions through Aura Power.
Jolteon’s movement was indeed swift, and after each attack, it would immediately change direction.
But no matter how it moved, it must have some pattern and habits.
Which position it preferred to strike from, which direction it habitually turned after striking, what the acceleration and deceleration rhythm was like, etc.
If observing with the naked eye, given Jolteon’s attack frequency, likely Snorlax would be unable to withstand it before any results are observed, but Aura Power is different!
This power is godlike in terms of observing information!
Each attack Snorlax endured was collecting information; soon... hang in there a bit longer, Snorlax!
As time passed, Snorlax had already endured Thunderbolt attacks five times; even with Snorlax’s robust physical strength, it was already depleted.
The huge body was covered with scorch marks left by Thunderbolt, each breath accompanied by heavy panting, the body slightly trembling; just one more hit from the opponent would declare its defeat.
It was at this moment, the brilliant blue light in Ash’s eyes shone even more brightly—found it!
"Snorlax, Giga Impact." Ash’s voice echoed in the arena, still filled with enthusiastic emotions.
Upon hearing this command, Volkner’s eyebrows raised slightly, Giga Impact? What’s the use of using Giga Impact at this time?
Jolteon was moving in high speed and had ample physical strength, Giga Impact is a straight-line charging skill, in Snorlax’s current state, even if it charges out, it wouldn’t be able to touch Jolteon’s sleeve.
Could it be finally giving up, wanting to make a desperate final struggle? But this would only be a death throe.
Thinking so, Volkner’s gaze fell on Ash, then he froze.
On Ash’s face, he saw no expression of gambling everything, instead filled with complete confidence; even in such a situation, Ash had not given up?
No, this was no longer just about not giving up; it was a feeling that everything was within his calculations!
Volkner keenly sensed something was off, but couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was wrong.
With Ash’s command, Snorlax gathered the last remaining strength in its body, the scarred body entirely wrapped in a dense layer of white light.
Suddenly, it charged out, like a shooting meteor, toward a particular direction in the field!
That direction looked empty, no one knew why Snorlax would rush there, except Volkner’s expression drastically changed!
Because Jolteon’s running trajectory would exactly pass through the point where Snorlax crashed into.
Volkner finally understood where the sense of mismatch came from; it was this!
Ash predicted Jolteon’s landing spot, which is why he let Snorlax use Giga Impact!
But how is this possible? Not to mention how Ash predicted Jolteon’s landing spot, even predicting it, at least two seconds in advance is needed to allow Snorlax to charge toward the spot.
And Ash didn’t even give Snorlax a specific direction, just shouted "Giga Impact," and Snorlax rushed in a certain direction!
Could it be Ash and this Snorlax could already act as one, requiring no specific command to determine the target point to attack?
Countless thoughts exploded in Volkner’s mind, but he no longer had time to think about them, because a massive crisis was nearing Jolteon!
"Jolteon, dodge quickly!!" Volkner’s voice carried unprecedented urgency.
