Chapter 19 The Master Challenge is coming soon
"Sister Ke Na... I'm in Kuye City. Do I want to find you now?" Xiao Mao typed a text message on his cell phone.
"Ang, okay, I'm at this address, do you need me to pick you up?" Ke Na wrote back.
"No, I can find a place by myself. Just send me the address."
At the seaside villa in Kuye City, Xiao Mao took his mobile phone and looked at the address on it.
"Is this right here?" Looking at the two-story villa in front of him, Xiao Mao said with some uncertainty.
"Bui!" Ibrahimovic nodded. His trainer never gets lost, which is very nice.
After receiving the invitation from Kona, Xiaomao didn't dare to delay all the way, and finally arrived at the port city, Dry Leaf City, two days before the Masters.
This is the largest shipping hub in Kanto and one of the cities with the fastest economic development.
Xiao Mao originally thought that the officials of the Masters Tournament would arrange a luxury hotel for Kona, but he didn't expect it to be a seaside hut like this.
Click, click, click~ Xiaomao shook his head, stepped forward and patted the gate of the villa's fence.
"Yeah~" The door opened, and a cute and silly hippopotamus appeared in front of Xiaomao and Ibrahimovic.
"Bui~!" Ibrahimovic looked at the stupid hippo curiously.
"Yeah~" The stupid hippo tilted its head and made an unclear sound.
Xiao Mao broke out in a cold sweat. He always felt very helpless towards such a wise and foolish Pokémon.
"Yeah~" The stupid hippopotamus raised his head and looked at the sky cutely. Ibrahimovic was circling around the hippo's tail with interest.
"Hey. Baby Eevee, I know the hippo's tail smells delicious, but don't bite it, okay? I'm not your takeaway..." Looking at Ibrahimovic's salivating expression. Xiaomao awkwardly took the little guy back into his arms.
"Damn Hippopotamus, are there any guests?" Kona's unique charming voice sounded.
Xiao Mao raised his head: "Sister Ke Na... wow~ the sun is so white..."
I saw Kona walking out wearing a close-fitting swimsuit and a coat.
"Hmm~" Ke Na looked at Xiao Mao's reaction with satisfaction: "Brother Xiao Mao, you are here."
Xiao Mao looked up at the sky in embarrassment: "Ang, sister Ke Na, are you swimming?"
"Almost, you can come too." Holding Xiaomao's hand, Ke Na walked towards the beach in the backyard without any explanation.
……
Xiao Mao, who was wearing only a pair of beach shorts, stood on the beach and couldn't help but hug himself with his hands.
It's not that the seaside is too cold, but the cold gazes of the armored clams lying in the sea and the white sea lions make people feel that the temperature is a bit low.
Kona sat on Chenglong's back, her white calves rippling in the waves.
"This is Miss Kona's Pokémon." Xiao Mao asked as he took the drink handed over by Pang Keding.
"Yes, these are my partners." Kona patted the white sea lion and the armored clam: "Before the game, I like to relax with them."
Xiaomao looked around. Chenglong, Sister Mizui, White Sea Lion, Iron Armored Shell, Silly Hippo and Fat Keding were the current first-line lineup of Kona.
In addition to these, Kona also has several water Pokémon such as Gem Starfish and Stinging Jellyfish.
Although he was very curious about how this weird guy like Fat Keding got into the lineup of the Four Heavenly Kings, Xiao Mao didn't ask too much.
Seeing Kona playing with Pokémon with a smile on his face, he asked curiously: "The day after tomorrow is the Master Challenge. You don't seem to be very nervous."
"Really? I think I've worked hard to adjust." Ke Na smoothed her long burgundy hair. "Normally, I should be as soft as water, but on the court it will instantly condense into ice. This is my style."
Xiao Mao nodded. Kona is really such a person. Even though she is so gentle and intoxicating now, once she enters a battle, this woman can be so cold that it makes people tremble.
"Is the venue of the Master Challenge event active? I remember that last week, Mr. Genji from Watanabe and Fang Yuan started the battle at the arena in Kanaz City." Xiaomao asked, remembering the video broadcast he had seen before.
"Yes, the location of the Master Challenge is different every time. Unlike the World Championships, the Master Challenge is mostly for performances, unless it is a competition for the position of king.
In addition to showing everyone a high-level battle, the alliance's arrangement also means that the alliance can flex its muscles to the dark forces everywhere. ” Kona shrugged.
"Has the location of this battle been determined?" Xiao Mao took two sips of the drink and motioned to Sister Mi Chuan to chill the drink.
The latter took the cup and blew slightly, and the wall of the cup was instantly covered with frost.
"It's confirmed, it's on the top floor of the Battle Tower in Dead Leaf City." Kona nodded and sighed tiredly: "I just met Shiba, a straight man of steel who only thinks about muscles."
Xiaomao smiled and shook his head. Kona's ice element was indeed somewhat restrained by Shiba's fighting element.
However, at their level, the importance of attribute restraint does not play a decisive role. The most important thing depends on the strength of the Pokémon and the trainer's tactics.
"Master Shiba's fighting-type Pokémon is indeed very fast, but Sister Kona's Ice Domain is not vegetarian." Xiao Mao comforted.
Kona spread his hands helplessly: "Hiba will also improve. In fact, I haven't played a formal match with Hiba for more than half a year. If there are no new changes in my tactics, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult to beat him this time. …”
"New tactics~" Xiao Mao raised his eyebrows, then turned on the appraisal skill and swept towards Ke Na's Pokémon.
"My dear~ These are some luxurious data panels~" After looking around, Xiao Mao admitted that he felt sour.
A luxurious lineup with an average level of 80, each Pokémon has a long list of skill reserves in its skill bar.
This is the strength of a heavenly king...
"Wait a minute~ This gem starfish~" Xiao Mao's eyes stopped on Kona's gem starfish.
"What's the matter, Xiaomao?" Ke Na asked curiously.
"Can this gem starfish use [get smaller]?" Xiao Mao asked with raised eyebrows.
"Yes, this kid's skills are very complex. He knows a little bit about everything, but he hasn't raised his level yet, so he hasn't participated in major competitions yet." Ke Na nodded.
"If... I mean if, I have a set of tactics... Sister Kona, would you like to try it. I think the winning rate of the fighting system used to deal with Master Shiba should be high." Xiao Mao suddenly said.
"Oh~ I'd like to hear the details." Ke Na adjusted his glasses, showing a sharp temperament.
"Let's go back to the room and talk. I'm a little cold." Seeing Tiejia Bei's expression ready to give him an ice pick, Xiao Mao couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Please! Although the female junior is holding gold bricks, four bricks are too heavy! Xiaomao didn’t want to hug her at all, okay...
Ke Na nodded and took Xiao Mao back to the villa. Putting on her usual black silk skirt and shirt, Kona came to the sofa and sat down with two cups of coffee.
Xiao Mao took a sip of black coffee and spoke slowly: "I don't know, have you ever heard of... turning into a child to protect poison..."
