Chapter 214: Zhihuixing and Korni

Including Luo Mu, many people who were queuing with number plates in their hands also cast puzzled glances towards the side of the street near the dessert shop.

There was a very high slope. A blonde girl carrying a box on roller skates screamed as if she couldn't stop the car: "Lucario! Lucario! At least... at least protect the chocolate cream cake!"

But Lucario, who was called by the girl, was a little confused at this time. He didn't know whether to save the trainer or the cake.

The loyalty to the trainer and the desire for chocolate cream cake made Lucario completely reach a crossroads in his dog life.
Chocolate cream cake?
Luo Mu's ears moved and accurately captured the sound. His eyes, which had become sharp from practicing throwing Poké Balls, fell on the exquisite cake box held in the hands of the blonde roller skating girl.

He could confirm that the logo on the box was that of this dessert shop.

Seeing that the girl could no longer maintain her balance, Luo Mu quickly shouted to Zhi Huixing behind him amid exclamations: "Zhi Huixing!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah."

Zhihuixing's action was one step faster than Luo Mu's voice. It made its own judgment, waved the fan in its hand, and its mental power turned into a telekinetic wave, which spread out and accurately captured the girl who was about to fall and the cake box that was about to be thrown away.

Zhihuixing's handsome performance was greeted with applause from the people queuing in the dessert shop and passers-by nearby, while the girl floated in the air with a confused look on her face, staring at Lucario below.

Although the nameless dessert shop is very popular, most people choose to take the desserts home or enjoy them in the hotel. There are still a few empty seats among the tables and chairs placed outside.

"Maeve. Maeve!"

With one hand, Luo Mu suppressed the Frost Fairy who was looking at the cake box on the girl's legs with desire, and asked: "Are you okay? Why did you suddenly rush down from such a high slope, and you were wearing roller skates?"

The girl touched the helmet on her head with an embarrassed look on her face and smiled a little silly: "I made a mistake. I forgot there was a slope there."

"Leo."

Lucario, who was also sitting nearby, covered his face, as if he didn't want to face the fact that this person who seemed to be missing a thread in his brain was his trainer.

With a swish, the roller skating girl placed the cake box on the table, bowed 90 degrees to Luo Mu and Zhi Huixing, and said, "Thank you for saving me and giving me this biggest chocolate cream cake!"

"I'm Korni, from Sala City, and this is my partner, Lucario, who is now on a rigorous training journey."

"A rigorous training path?"

Luo Mu and Zhi Huixing's eyes fell on the big cake wrapped in the box, and they were hesitant to speak.

Girl, are you sure you are undergoing rigorous training now?

Korni blushed and stammered, "This is... that. Even on the path of cultivation, we must not forget the combination of work and rest!"

Luo Mu nodded: "Then let's take it as it is."

Although his expression was calm, Luo Mu's inner thoughts were overflowing.

What kind of luck is this? It seems that Korni’s outfit seems a little bit familiar. Isn’t this the future leader of the Sala Gym?

The struggle of Frost Fairy in his hand became more and more intense. Luo Mu had no choice but to use his second hand to hold it, and warned Frost Fairy with his eyes that it was the cake bought by Korni, so he just had to be patient and queue up to buy it tomorrow.

Frost Milk Fairy had a look of reluctance on his face. He could clearly smell the rich chocolate aroma and the light sweet scent of the special cream.

It is so close to the chocolate cream cake, but the gap between it and the cake seems thousands of miles away.

Luo Mu gave Zhi Huixing another look, and Zhi Huixing received it and knew that Luo Mu was planning to withdraw.

Just as they were about to get up, Korni suddenly said, "Your Pokémon seems to be very interested in my cake?"

Although Frosty Milk Fairy looked more like she was craving for the chocolate cream cake, Korni still used a slightly more tactful way of expressing it, after all, she had a request to make from Luo Mu.

Luo Mu thought that Kernee was unhappy about Frosty Milk Fairy's behavior, so he explained, "Don't worry, we don't mean to ask for anything in return. You can just queue up and buy the cake tomorrow."

"Just enjoy this chocolate cream cake with your Lucario."

"That was not what I meant."

Korni stood up again and looked straight at Luo Mu and Zhi Huixing.

Zhi Huixing narrowed his eyes slightly. Could it be that this girl wanted to...
"Please have a Pokémon battle between you and your Pokémon and my Lucario. As mentioned before, I am in the process of training and I am determined to defeat 100 people in a row. You are the first opponent I want to challenge after I start training!"

As a girl whose mind was full of fighting, Korni didn't know how to get Luo Mu to agree to her request, so she could only bow awkwardly and ask.

"Of course, even if you don't agree to my request for a fight, you can still enjoy the cake as a return gift for saving me!" The girl's sincerity and passion were expressed without reservation. Luo Mu didn't know why Kornai was so persistent in fighting against him and Zhihuixing, but since Kornai had brought it up, it was also a good opportunity.

After receiving the telepathic message that Zhihuixing agreed, Luo Mu let go of Shuangnanxian and nodded without hesitation: "Okay, we accept your challenge. As a price, you can give us a portion of your cake to taste. Is that ok?"

Korne and Lucario looked at each other with joy on their faces, and replied in a full-of-energy voice: "No problem!"

Because it was just an ordinary competition, Luo Mu and his friends chose a wide street not far from the dessert shop and the road.

This place will not hinder the passing traffic, and it is also large enough for Lucario to stretch his body.

Luo Mu didn't expect that he would be the first person worthy of commemoration among Korne's targets of a hundred people. To be honest, he felt a little bit reluctant to see the girl's determination to destroy her, but a Pokémon battle was a Pokémon battle after all, and with his personality, he would never choose to lose to Korne.

"I'll send out Lucario. Mr. Luo Mu, please send Zhihuixing to the field as well!"

Kornie's face was flushed. Ever since she learned the name of Chiron and that it was a Pokémon from other regions, she had been in a state of excitement.

Luo Mu withdrew his gaze from Frosty Milk Fairy who was guarding the tables, chairs and cakes on the other side of the street. He could only hope that the child would not be so greedy as to choose to steal.

Luo Mu had another telepathic communication with Zhi Huixing, and they unanimously decided to let off some steam, at least to prevent Lucario from being killed instantly, and to stretch out the battle line a little.

From his observation, Korne is still very immature, only slightly better than Neemo who has just been a trainer for a while. Zhihuixing can even defeat a real gym leader, let alone Korne who has not yet become the leader of the Sara gym.

"You go first."

After Zhi Huixing slowly came to him, Luo Mu signaled Korni to take action.

Korni let her heart beat rapidly, her eyes focused, recalling the fighting method her grandfather taught her, and shouted, "Sword Dance!"

Lucario immediately planned to strengthen his attack ability, and he did not dare to be careless when facing the Monkey King.

Without Luo Mu's command, Zhi Huixing made the best judgment on his own. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he hooked his finger at Lucario provocatively.

Move "Provocation"!
Can temporarily block Lucario from using transformation moves!

Lucario felt a nameless fire burning in his chest. He interrupted the sword dance that was halfway through and rushed straight towards Zhihuixing.

“Lucario!” Korni was surprised that Lucario suddenly gave up the sword dance and panicked, but she still calmed down and said: “Bone club, hit randomly!”

"Luca!"

Lucario roared as if to cheer himself up, and two bone sticks made of ground energy gathered in his hands and attacked Zhihuixing with a sound of breaking through the air.

"Yuta."

Zhihuixing still waved the fan calmly, and a strange energy wave spread out. Lucario felt as if he was suppressed by something, and his movements suddenly stiffened for a moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhihuixing calmly dodged Lucario's bone stick and let it fall to the ground.

Luo Mu remained silent: “.”

It seemed that he had some understanding of how Zhihuixing defeated the gym leader.

In addition to powerful mental power, Zhihuixing also mastered many dirty moves, such as the previous "provoke" and the just-mentioned "delay". With its smart intelligence and these changing moves, Zhihuixing literally played Lucario in the palm of his hand.

Dirty, so dirty.

Zhihuixing calmly toyed with Lucario, using "Delay" to slow down Lucario's movements, provoking and blocking its changing moves when it wanted to regroup, and occasionally using "Command" to make Lucario freeze in place as if it was stuck in a bug, just because Lucario wanted to use "Sword Dance" before.

After several attacks failed, Lucario's movements and breath suddenly became disordered. It panted and stared at the figure of Zhihuixing, wanting to chase Zhihuixing with its fists.

Not to mention Lucario, even Korne was in confusion at this time. She had always fought straightforwardly and had never seen the strange and bizarre moves of Zhihuixing.

Unfortunately, Lucario's strength was completely crushed by Smart-Giveaway. Korne and Lucario did not have the conditions to break through Smart-Giveaway's chain control by relying on their hard power in normal battles, resulting in such a funny scene.

Luo Mu frowned for a moment, as if Zhi Huixing's fighting method would be more devastating to Korni?
Unable to bear it any longer, Luo Mu said helplessly: "Strong mental thought."

Zhihuixing seemed to realize that it would be worse to kill Lucario in one blow, so he awkwardly sent out a mental wave to imprison Lucario. No matter how Lucario struggled, he could not break through this powerful mental wave.

Korni also knew that the situation was hopeless. They were now unable to compete with Zhihuixing. She lowered her head and whispered, "I lost."
