Chapter 410: Shocked Master and Disciple! (First Update)
As the champion of the Sinnoh region, one of the oldest, most famous and most powerful people in the Johto region's dragon master clan, Granny Long has never mentioned one thing in front of others.
That is... she has a special ability to sense dragon Pokémon.
It is somewhat similar to Adu's dragon power, but not exactly the same.
To put it more accurately, it is to be able to see the energy aura emanating from the dragon Pokémon, and thus judge the approximate potential of this Pokémon.
However, this sensing ability itself has a very large limitation, that is, it can only see the potential of Pokémon in the larval stage, that is, the period of time before it has fully grown up.
This is also the reason why she did not deliberately publicize it, and basically no one knows that she has this sensing ability. After all, compared with other abilities in the Pokémon world, this ability is not particularly powerful.
But this ability is useful after all. Being able to judge the approximate upper limit that a Pokémon can reach since childhood is a very good auxiliary ability for a trainer.
Whether it was the first time she met Sirona and Land Shark and planned to take them as her apprentice, or when she was discovering young juniors and Pokémon, she used this special ability to observe the energy aura released by Pokémon in the juvenile stage as a reference.
After decades of experience, Granny Long has made a simple summary of her ability.
The color of the energy aura is used to distinguish the potential, that is, red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, which are arranged from left to right in order to break through.
Those with low potential are red and orange, those with medium potential are yellow and green, those with better talent are cyan and blue, and those with top talent are purple.
For example, Sirona's Land Shark, which was still Land Shark in the past, presented a ball of purple energy aura in her eyes.
For example, the mini dragonet that she met in the hands of Adu a long time ago when she was still in the Dragon Master Clan, which has now become Dragonite, is also the same color.
Or the Sonic Dragon, Tanabata Bluebird, and Land Shark in her hands are all the same purple.
She originally thought that purple was the limit of Pokémon.
But now...
She saw an unexpected color - black!
An extremely dense black aura that only she could see was swaying with the breathing and body movements of the Pokémon.
Deep, ancient, and powerful!
The potential represented by such an aura is not only that of Sirona, Adu, and her main Pokémon, but even the thick and sticky purple gas on the mini dragon that was sent out from the deepest part of the Dragon Cave, the sacred place of the Dragon Master Clan when she was a little girl and was said to have the strongest potential in the past few hundred years, but disappeared in the end, cannot be compared with it.
It even exceeded the limit of her ability to understand for decades...
Looking at the unknown Pokémon with blue and white dragon-like wings on its back not far away, and the black aura that was slowly dissipating, Granny Long's breathing became extremely heavy, and she opened her eyes wide to remember the scene deeply.
Before coming here, she had an inexplicable feeling in her heart, but it was very vague. It was not until she locked the target just now that she saw such a scene.
But even so, this energy field is constantly becoming illusory and transparent.
First, because the ability has a distance limit.
Second, it is likely that the opponent has left the relatively weak stage and completed the evolution during this period, but the black energy field will not disappear immediately, but requires a process, and the current time period is in this process.
If she came a little later, even if she had this ability, she would never see such a shocking scene.
Using a long silence to suppress the shock in her heart, Granny Long calmed down, and combined with the experience and situation at the scene, she quickly reversed what happened just now.
What happened here, this is completely a battle.
And it was a very short fight.
But such a short fight can actually cause such a huge movement, and even break the defense of the Steel Sea Dragon Beast that almost crushed the entire team of Shirona in such a short time.
Is this the power of a Pokémon with a black energy aura...
Grandma Long's expression became extremely serious at this moment, and her hunchback stood up uncharacteristically, and her height soared.
Qingliu was a little confused about this, wondering why this champion seemed to be a different person compared to the last time they met.
And Sirona, who was very close to Grandma Long, naturally noticed the strangeness of the other party after coming here, especially after seeing the other party's face, she couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Grandma Long, is there anything special?"
Grandma Long ignored Sirona, but looked straight at Qingliu and asked: "That unknown Pokémon has been captured by you, right?"
Seeing the figure pointed by Grandma Long, Qingliu nodded.
"Yes, Tianxiang Vdramon has just agreed to join my team."
After getting confirmation, Grandma Long took a deep breath and asked again: "Qingliu, let me ask you, do you know what kind of potential this Pokémon has?"
Without waiting for an answer, she continued: "It has reached a level where the potential of any Pokémon I have seen in my life cannot be compared with it. You have to know the weight of this sentence, so... …answer me after you think about it clearly.”
Qingliu raised her eyebrows slightly without any trace.
Grandma Long's questioning words are not suitable for people who have never met twice and are not familiar with each other.
But inexplicably, he could feel that the other party did not say that he wanted to emphasize the importance of Tianxiang Vdramon to fight for "only I can train it well", or let him be handed over to her for training, let alone Ask yourself questions like the origin of this Pokémon.
On the contrary, some really want to ask if they really understand the potential of Tianxiang Vdramon.
After contacting Adu and the dragon master clan, Qingliu realized that the other party most likely had some special ability to feel the specialness of the Tianxiang V-Dragon Beast.
So, he said seriously: "As long as it can grow up smoothly and completely, no one or Pokémon in the entire world can trap it."
After receiving this answer, the serious expression on Granny Long's face relaxed slightly, and her straight back became hunched again.
"That's good, come to me after the Four Heavenly Kings Challenge and the Champions Challenge are over, and I will personally take you back to the Dragon Master Clan to conduct a promotion ceremony specifically for it."
Promotion ceremony?
Hearing the name again, Qingliu couldn't help but reply: "A'Du already mentioned this matter to me last time and expressed his willingness to help."
After hearing this, Grandma Long said expressionlessly: "Although that kid is also a genius, he is still too young and will not understand the power of this Pokémon. I don't trust it if I leave it to him.
"This matter has been settled. When the time comes, let Xiaona lead you, and the three of us will go together."
After saying that, Granny Long took one last look at Tianxiang V Dragon Beast, returned to Sonic Dragon, and before Qingliu could continue to speak, she jumped up and jumped directly on its back.
As a whirlwind blew, it quickly disappeared into the distance, and along with it, the people in the distance who were casting their sights here also quickly disappeared.
Sirona, who was left behind at this moment, was already shocked by what happened in this short period of time.
From the exchange between the two just now, she already knew that this Pokémon, which appeared from nowhere, definitely had unimaginable potential.
As a person who looks kind but is extremely strict in training and Pokémon battles, it is naturally impossible for Granny Long to let her talent go to waste after she has already discovered it.
But Aoyagi has come this far alone. Although his fighting methods are a bit rough and violent, there is no problem with the normal cultivation of Pokémon. Otherwise, his Pokémon would not have grown to this point.
Moreover, Granny Long was not someone who was arrogant or unreasonable enough to overstep her authority, so she chose another method...to carry out the promotion ceremony for her into the dragon master clan.
After performing this ritual to fully activate the potential, in the later stage, as long as it is not too outrageous, you can bring out more than half of its potential. If done properly, sometimes you can even increase the upper limit of Pokémon.
But, is it really okay to be so decisive and proactive?
He had worked hard for a long time before Grandma Long agreed to help him with the promotion ceremony. However, when he arrived at Qingliu, she immediately took the initiative and ran away without giving him any chance to refuse.
Sirona was a little frustrated.
Even she originally had the idea of proposing to Granny Long that Qingliu perform the promotion ceremony with her after the championship battle ended.
At this time, Qingliu also slowly reacted to Granny Long's series of operations, but there was one thing he didn't understand.
"Miss Sirona, will the promotion ceremony have different effects for different people?"
"No, to be precise, the promotion ceremony has nothing to do with the person who holds it."
Sirona shook her head and continued: "The key point is that the dragon's tooth used and the place where it is held are different. Although Mr. Adu is already the Four Heavenly Kings, in comparison, the mother-in-law has a higher status in the dragon master clan. , and she has more experience, and the auxiliary conditions she can provide are definitely better than Mr. A'Du."
"That's it..."
"If my mother-in-law is willing to help you, she will definitely do her best. If you were so anxious to leave just now, I think she is most likely busy going back to let the clan quickly prepare the things needed for your promotion ceremony."
After thinking about the previous conversation between the two, Sirona took the initiative to explain: "My mother-in-law will become very strict once it comes to matters related to Pokémon. Please don't mind if there was some intrusion on privacy just now."
"Of course not."
Qingliu said slowly: "But this way, when it comes to the championship battle, I will be embarrassed to go all out."
Sirona was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then realized what Qingliu meant, as well as the trump card that she had not used when she fought with her until the last moment.
So he said with a smile: "No, if you don't fight seriously, my mother-in-law might not play the game if she gets angry, and just turn around and leave."
This time it was Qingliu who was a little stunned.
However, it is also understandable that it is normal to get angry when you are not respected for something you love and persist in for your whole life, not to mention you are older.
After the two chatted about the relevant matters for a while, Shirona suddenly said: "By the way, there seems to be something I haven't told you yet. I just got the news, and the alliance should notify you soon."
"What?"
"Regarding you who won the Lily of the Valley Conference, the specific time of the Four Heavenly Kings Challenge before challenging the champion has been determined."
"When is it?"
"In three days..."
