Chapter 319: Are You Crazy! You Call This Splash?
[It is considered the weakest and most pitiful Pokémon in the world.]
The voice fell.
"Bwahahahahahahahaha!!"
Garp’s sky-shattering laughter was like a detonated powder keg filling the venue! "I can’t! I really can’t! Weakest?! Most pitiful?! Hahahaha! Sengoku! Did you hear that?! That Kaido of the Beasts, the world’s Strongest Creature, his official certification now is—the most pitiful Pokémon!"
Garp rolled on the ground laughing, pounding the floor while wiping tears. "Who dares to say this old man’s Iron Fist is formidable in the future? Compared to this, this old man’s fist is simply too gentle!"
The majesty of the Marine Hero was gone in this moment. Fleet Admiral Sengoku’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to stop Garp, it was really... he couldn’t hold it in either! The corners of his mouth rose frantically, his shoulders trembling violently. In the end, this Resourceful General could only take off his glasses and cover his face tightly with his hands, pretending to be in deep thought.
The pirates outside the tavern were laughing so hard they were swaying and falling all over.
"It’s over! Lord King is crying!"
"No! That’s not crying! That’s his mask twitching!"
"Quick, hold Lord Queen! He’s laughing so hard he’s about to shake off his mechanical arm!"
The station of the Beasts Pirates was filled with wailing. All the officers felt their pirate careers had come to an end today. Their captain was captured by a ten-year-old girl with a ball. And was officially stamped as "Most Pitiful." How could they go out and mix in the world after this?!
...
On the screen, Little Li obviously didn’t realize she had just completed a feat worthy of history. She just happily held the Poké Ball in her palm, treasuring it. "Great, you are my partner from now on!" she said softly but firmly to the Poké Ball.
However, just then, an arrogant voice came from not far away. "Hey! That coward over there!" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Little Li looked towards the voice and saw a teenager wearing shorts and a hat looking at her with disdain. "Are you also a new Trainer from this year?" The Youngster pointed at Little Li, a contemptuous smile on his face. "Looking at you, I know you’re a rookie. That thing in your hand, don’t tell me that’s your Starter Pokémon?"
Little Li was a bit scared by his look, instinctively taking a step back and hiding the Poké Ball behind her. "So... so what if it is?"
"Ha! Let me see!" The Youngster whistled and took a Poké Ball from his waist. "Come out! My strongest partner!"
Bang!
A white light flashed. A purple rat with two big buck teeth and a fierce look appeared on the grass. It was a Rattata.
[Pokédex: Beep.]
[Rattata, Mouse Pokémon.]
[Its incisors grow continuously, so it gnaws on hard things to grind them down. It has tenacious vitality and amazing reproductive ability.]
The Youngster put his hands on his hips, boasting proudly. "See that? This is the strongest Rattata I carefully selected! Its incisors can even crunch stones! How about it? Want to have a Pokémon battle? The loser has to hand over all the money on them!"
Little Li’s small face turned pale with fright. Battle? She didn’t know what that was at all. And that purple rat looked so fierce! "I... I don’t want to fight..."
"Hah? Don’t want to fight?" The mockery on the Youngster’s face deepened. "Sure enough, a coward! You don’t even have the courage to battle, what kind of Trainer are you? Hurry home and drink milk!"
The boy’s sharp and mean words made Little Li’s eyes red instantly. She bit her lip tightly, lowered her head, aggrieved tears swirling in her eyes. Just then, the Poké Ball in her arms suddenly shook violently. An inexplicable... anger? Was transmitted from inside the ball.
Little Li was stunned. She could feel that the partner she just captured seemed... very angry?
"Come out!" Like a ghost pushing her, Little Li pressed the button in the middle of the Poké Ball.
Bang!
Red light flashed. That red carp looking dull and stupid appeared on the grass again.
"Karp..." Kaido lay on the grass, his tail slapping the ground feebly. In his heart, monstrous anger was setting off!
"A mere human cub! A mere purple rat! Dare to clamor in front of this old man?!" Kaido trembled with rage. When has he, Kaido of the Beasts, ever suffered such indignity?!
"Hahahaha!" Seeing Kaido, the Youngster was stunned at first, then burst into laughter more exaggerated than Garp. "Ma... Magikarp?! Your Starter Pokémon is actually the recognized weakest Pokémon, Magikarp?! Hahahaha! You’re killing me! Did you pick it out of a trash can?"
The boy laughed back and forth. "Rattata! See that! That is your opponent! Go! Teach it a lesson! Use! Tackle!"
The Rattata let out a sharp cry, exerted force with its four limbs, turned into a purple afterimage, and rushed fiercely towards Kaido on the ground!
"No!" Little Li screamed in fright.
Bang!
A muffled sound. The Rattata slammed solidly into Kaido’s body.
...
Inside the tavern, everyone held their breath. "It’s over, it’s over! Is Kaido going to be insta-killed by a rat? If this gets out, the face of the Four Emperors will be completely lost!"
However, the expected scene of Magikarp being knocked flying did not appear. Kaido still lay in place. He didn’t even move a bit. The Rattata’s Tackle was like hitting a piece of steel wrapped in fish skin.
"Squeak?!" The Rattata was bounced away by the recoil force, shaking its somewhat dizzy head, eyes full of confusion. So hard! Is this really a Magikarp?
"Hmph!" Kaido sprayed a jet of air from his nostrils... oh no, from his gills. Although it hurt. But more than that was... extreme humiliation! This old man was actually hit by a rat! And was f*cking unharmed?! This felt worse than killing him!
"Useless thing! Hurry up and attack!" Little Li looked at the motionless Kaido, anxious enough to cry. She didn’t know what to do at all. She could only imitate the Youngster just now, shouting indiscriminately. "Magikarp! Use! Use that... Splash!"
Splash!
The moment Little Li shouted the move name, Kaido’s body jumped up from the ground uncontrollably! Jumped high, drawing a meaningless parabola in the air.
Splat!
Smashed heavily back to the original spot.
"Hahahaha! Splash!" The Youngster laughed until tears came out. "You really are an idiot! Splash is a skill with no attack effect! Rattata! Do it again! Use! Quick Attack!"
This time, the Rattata was faster! The purple figure almost turned into a beam of light!
Bang!
Another solid impact! Kaido felt his scales were about to be knocked off! Rage! Boundless rage completely swallowed Kaido’s reason! He remembered the humiliation of being suppressed by Blake! Remembered the shame of being hung on a tree as bacon! Remembered the despair of being captured by a ten-year-old girl!
Now! Even a damn rat dares to tyrannize over him?!
"Ahhhhhhh—!!!" Kaido let out a sky-shaking roar in his heart. His Haki was sealed. His Devil Fruit ability vanished. He couldn’t even move a finger.
But! There was one thing this world could not deprive him of! That was his... Will as the "Strongest Creature"! It was the... Killing Intent condensed from slaughtering across the four seas and stepping over mountains of corpses and seas of blood!!
"Die... for this old man!!!"
Accompanied by Little Li’s desperate cry of "Splash" again, Kaido jumped up uncontrollably once more. But at the moment of reaching the highest point! His originally dull and lifeless dead-fish eyes... Suddenly locked onto the Rattata’s gaze!
Boom—!!!
An invisible terrifying pressure, originating from the depths of the soul, crashed down! The Rattata’s pupils instantly shrank to the size of pinpoints! The world before its eyes changed! That ridiculous red carp disappeared.
Replacing it was an Azure Dragon coiling over a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, its body obscuring the sky and sun! Those golden dragon pupils were filled with tyranny, destruction, and endless slaughter! As if just one look could completely crush its soul! That was absolute crushing... from a higher level of life!
"Squeak... Squeak..." The Rattata’s hair stood on end, its body trembling violently. It wanted to flee, but its four limbs seemed nailed to the ground, unable to move. Fear! Unprecedented fear seized its heart!
Splat.
Kaido fell heavily back to the ground. And that Rattata rolled its eyes, foamed at the mouth, and fell straight to the ground. Lost combat capability.
...
On the screen. The Youngster looked at his unconscious Rattata, completely dumbfounded. "Wh... What happened? What did you do to my Rattata?!"
Little Li was also stunned. She looked at the Magikarp lying on the ground, still flopping weakly, then at the unconscious Rattata. Her small head was filled with big question marks.
Won? I... won? Just used one move "Splash"?
