Chapter 1071 This Is a Bond!

"Champion! Champion! Champion!"

"Debut! Debut! Debut!"

…

Seeing that Sojiro was already in decline, the cheers from Eminem's support team became even more uniform.

"Really, this is the first time I feel like the support team is a bit annoying, hahaha..." Sojiro scratched his head and said.

When he was in school, there was a "support group" composed of school girls cheering for him.

Although there are many students from the alliance coming to cheer him on in the competition, but... in this situation, the "school-level" popularity is obviously not comparable to Eminem's.

"Galar Daruma Baboon" unexpectedly failed to play any role, and after the important auxiliary "Sakura" was also directly taken away by Yueyue Xiong, Sojiro was never able to organize an effective attack.

And Eminem is really serious - he makes substitutions when he needs to, without giving his opponent a chance to score at all!

At this time, many people, including the Pokémon Fighter who was commenting, had already guessed that Eminem had a similar group version of [Regeneration] effect when replacing Pokémon.

In other words, if it is dragged into the rhythm of a protracted war, Eminem will have an advantage!

In the doubles match, Sojiro failed to threaten Eminem again, and when it came to the singles stage...

"Dharma baboon has lost its fighting capacity, the game is over, Eminem wins!" the referee announced.

Because Sojiro didn't win a single game in the previous doubles, so in the singles, after Eminem defeated the "Galar Daruma Baboon" that Sojiro sent again, he directly sealed the victory - even if Sojiro didn't win any singles later. Even after defeating all three of Ammu's Pokémon, it was impossible to surpass Ammu in total points.

According to the rules of the Johto Rookie Competition, Eminem's victory was directly announced at this time.

"The quality shown by player Sojiro is already very impressive in the rookie competition, but unfortunately, player Eminem is still better. Let us congratulate Eminem for becoming the first player to advance to the quarterfinals this year..." Bao Kemen Fighter also explained the results of the game at this time.

This result was actually doomed when the "Galar Daruma Baboon" lost its edge when faced with the strange "Escape Ninja".

Essentially, Eminem's strength is greater than Sojiro's. The gap between the two is almost the same as the gap between Bajir and Eminem half a year ago...Bajir even has less of the [Eternal Flame] effect than Eminem.

If Sojiro wants to win, he needs to be ready with "special moves" like Eminem. Even so, the error tolerance rate is extremely low!

Sojiro did not give up, he was prepared in this way.

Eminem's "Escape Ninja" can easily defend against [Fire] attacks and can provide almost unlimited cover for his teammates, which in itself makes Sojiro's "unique move" ineffective.

This is equivalent to half a year ago, when Bajir faced Eminem's endless encouragement and used the "Water Eevee" with [Black Mist] - if he had such a prediction, all Eminem's mechanisms would be in vain.

However, for ordinary Pokémon, they can only have four skills. The absence of [Black Mist] is the norm, and Eminem's tactics can be implemented.

However, even so, Eminem paid a huge price at that time, paving the way for his subsequent failure to qualify for the finals.

After the game, Sojiro and Eminem shook hands again...

"It's such a pity. I didn't expect that your shelling ninja can even ignore and absorb fire skills..." Sojiro sighed with emotion, but he didn't have too many negative emotions after the failure. Instead, he asked curiously: "Can you tell me why? Really? I will keep it a secret!"

"I think...this is the bond!" Eminem smiled slightly and explained everything as "the bond with Pokémon".

"Hahaha, that's such a powerful bond." Sojiro smiled, not sure if he believed it or not.

Well, Eminem believes it anyway.

The special thing about "Ninjas" is that little Hoopa is controlling this body. Why does Little Hoopa control this body and not the bodies of other "Ninjas"?

Of course it’s because of the “bond” with Eminem!

Whoever comes, Eminem dares to pat his chest and say: This is the bond!

Although other "Shelling Ninjas" are also controlled by special Pokémon from the [Shadow Dimension],... Little Hoopa, as a "Time and Space Demon", cannot be described as "special".

The "Escape Ninja" controlled by it is difficult to measure with ordinary "Escape Ninja". Not only the attributes have changed, but also...

Spatial ability skills, whether [Switching Fields] or [Teleportation], the "Shelling Ninja" controlled by Little Hoopa are all at your fingertips!

This is instinct for little Hoopa and has nothing to do with "skills".

And when resisting skills, unlike ordinary "shell ninjas" who pass through it, Little Hoopa directly transfers its power away.

If Little Hoopa is willing, if the other party bumps into him, Little Hoopa can actually move it in front of him, but...

It doesn't matter if he vents some energy into the sea, but if he really transfers the enemy to Avalon, Eminem is afraid that Morgan will come and kill him!

That's why it was the effect shown on the field before - when faced with contact attacks, the enemy will be teleported behind itself and the additional energy will be stripped away, while when faced with non-contact attacks, the attack will be directly transferred to [Shadow Dimension] seems to have disappeared out of thin air...

However, because the nature of the "Shell Ninja" itself has not changed, if you encounter an attack that restrains the dual attributes of [Super + Ghost], you still have to show your cowardice - that is, if you encounter two [Evil] and [Ghost] Attacks with attributes will disrupt the connection and cause a direct loss of combat.

Moreover, due to the low level of the "Escape Ninja", little Hoopa is now unable to release his own energy to resist.

Therefore, when he saw "Mimikyu" coming out before, Eminem directly asked Hoopa to [teleport] back...

Little Hupa can be replaced at will!

It's just that this is pure space power, so it doesn't have the same effect as normal [teleportation] to help the Pokémon on the field accumulate skills.

Muramasa, the "Phantom Assassin" who originally heard that a newcomer had conquered the "Ninja Out of the Shell" and came to watch the competition, was a little confused at this time - he decided to train properly and see his "Ninja Out of the Shell". Can you learn [teleportation]?

Muramasa, a well-known professional trainer from the Johto area, is currently ranked in the top 1,000 in the world. (Note 1)

Eminem, who successfully won the competition, relaxed a little and went directly to have lunch with Sonoko and others. After that...

While everyone was looking at her with confusion, he took Mikoto with him to the battle club!
