Blue Star is also a Pokémon Master!

Today, the weather in the Blue Coast is cloudy, so the sky is a little gloomy, but fortunately the wind is not strong and there is no rain.

Su Yi and Lucario flew to the direction of Blowing Fire Island on the Sky and Toothless respectively.

Blowing Fire Island is not too far from the coast, and soon its outline appeared in front of them.

But the current scene of Blowing Fire Island is a bit scary: the crater of the tall volcano standing in the center of the island is constantly spewing thick smoke, and the surrounding magma pools are also surging from time to time.

Su Yi's face sank and said, "Is this volcano going to erupt?"

In order to avoid the volcanic ash that has formed a certain scale in the sky, Su Yi chose to land in the woods outside Blowing Fire Island.

Boom...

However, not long after they landed on the island, a small earthquake occurred that could be clearly felt.

Although the magnitude was not large, it caused magma to splash out of the crater, making it look more dangerous.

For a while, many Pokémon in the surrounding woods screamed and fled in panic.

But the island of Blowing Fire is surrounded by the sea. Some Pokémon that can fly or swim are fine, but where can those that can't fly, or even those that are fire-type and afraid of water, escape to?

"We have to act quickly!"

Su Yi immediately took out the "Hunting Guide" and opened the [Map].

"It's a bit troublesome..."

Su Yi had a headache. The capture balls of these three partners were scattered in three places, and the distance between them was not short.

"We can only search separately!" Su Yi quickly decided.

"Lucario, you and Toothless fly in this direction, and I'll go in this direction..."

"If you find your partners first, just use the flare to contact them, and then bring them to me!"

The reason for looking for the capture ball is that it can be marked on the [Map], and the location of the companion beast or Pokémon to which it belongs can be displayed only when the capture ball is retrieved.

Now the situation is tense. If you find your partners first, you can also use the "Hunting Guide" to unbind the original capture ball and rebind a new one.

Su Yi took out a paper map, marked the location, and gave it to Lucario along with some props.

Then, he released the Black Wolf Bird and the Thousand Blade Dragon and asked them to conduct aerial reconnaissance from other directions, so that the search area would be much larger.

"The volcano is very unstable, so search on the premise of protecting yourself!"

Su Yi said seriously.

...

At the same time, deep in the volcanic area of ​​​​Blowing Fire Island, in a lava cave that no detector could find, two giant beasts roared and confronted each other.

"Xiduo!"

Xiduolann angrily slammed the ground with his forelimbs. In an instant, the scorching flames flew out from the steel claws and surged, forming a hot flame storm that swept towards Zhanlong.

Zhanlong stood still. When the lava storm bombarded Zhanlong, the flames seemed to be attracted, transferred and merged into Zhanlong's tail blade, making the tail blade red and hot.

"Roar!"

The dragon slashing roared with the sound of metal friction, rushed towards Xiduolan, and then used a powerful tail swing.

Clang! Sizzle...!

The scorching tail blade slashed on Xiduolan's body that seemed to flow with magma, making a harsh sound of metal clashing.

At that moment, the flame on the tail blade was absorbed by Xiduolan, and the metal rubbed against the metal violently, making a harsh sound.

"Xiduo!"

Although the flame was absorbed, the power of the dragon slashing tail was still quite strong. Xiduolan's cross-shaped steel claws left four drag marks on the scorching rock ground.

The first attack did not work, and the dragon slashed again, using the tail blade to chop vertically on the head.

"Xiduo!"

Xiduolan immediately clung to the ground, lowered his center of gravity, and greeted the tail blade with his head, while a dazzling metallic luster lit up on his head.

Clang——!

The sound of a huge bell echoed in the cave.

The tail blade that hit the iron head knocked out some metal debris. Under the reaction force, Zhanlong staggered a few steps and almost fell, while Xiduolan's limbs were smashed into the hard rock.

"Xi... Duo..."

Xiduolan pulled out his limbs and shook his head vigorously before he recovered.

Zhanlong looked at the tail blade that had a small gap knocked out, then bit it with his teeth and grinded it fiercely.

It looked at Xiduolan's body that always remained hot, and a gleam of brilliance flashed in its eyes.

Just as the two sides were preparing for the second round of the competition, an earthquake suddenly struck.

Boom... Rumble...

The surrounding magma rivers suddenly surged, and the top of the cave fell rubble, and cracks spread on the rock wall...

When the earthquake stopped, Zhanlong and Xiduolan met eyes again.

"Xi Duo!"

Xiduolan took the lead, and it suddenly hit the ground hard, and a yellowish shock wave rushed towards Zhanlong along the ground.

Zhanlong was a beat too slow to react, and the power of the earth burst out from under his feet.

Boom boom boom...!

Several khaki energy columns erupted violently, and the powerful energy shock and explosion knocked Zhanlong down, causing great damage.

And Xiduolan took the opportunity to climb to the top of the cave, used a hole to break through the rock layer and left. After all, there was no benefit in continuing to fight, and there was a risk of the cave collapsing.

At this time, Zhanlong's momentum was greatly reduced. It stood up with difficulty, half lying on the ground, panting.

It had been hungry for several days. As a creature with a fast metabolism, hunger had a great impact on it.

The battle just now was supported by momentum, otherwise it would not have been so embarrassed.

Huh...

Zhanlong stood up panting, looking around, thinking about what to do next.

Then, it found that a rock wall not far away had collapsed due to the earthquake just now, and some shiny things were wrapped in the rubble.

It had seen all these things before. The red, shiny ones were Fire Stones. Su Yi had mentioned to it that there might be a chance to use them to forge its tail blade.

As for the other pink ones, it had seen some Pokémon that looked like stones eat them.

Thinking of food, the hunger in the abdomen became more obvious.

Zhanlong walked to the rubble, hesitated for a moment, and then resolutely picked up the pink Jianjian ore and took a big bite.

It had no physical strength left, and it was also seriously injured. It couldn't escape from this complex underground maze. It had to eat food and recover some physical strength to have a chance.

Those Pokémon could eat it, so it should be able to eat it too...

Crack!

After taking a bite, the taste was really no different from ore, and it tasted like chewing wax.

Although it regards "forging the tail blade and challenging the strong" as the first goal of its life, and is unmoved by other things, it has to admit at this moment that it misses Su Yi's barbecue dinner.

The strongest blade was not successfully forged, and it cannot fall down!

Crack, crack...!

Thinking of this, Zhanlong did not care about carefully picking out the Jianjian ore from other minerals slowly, but swallowed it whole in big mouthfuls.

With something filling the stomach, the feeling of hunger was slightly relieved. Perhaps Jianjian ore can indeed replenish energy. Zhanlong felt that his condition was better.

But this is not enough!

Zhanlong continued to dig out more minerals and Jianjian ore.

Crack!

As Zhanlong was digging, cracks expanded rapidly, eventually leading to the collapse of the rock wall, and finally a passage emerged.

Just as Zhanlong hesitated, the earthquake struck again, the falling rocks above his head became more frequent, and the surrounding magma river began to spread up.

Boom!

Then, a large rock from the top of the cave fell, blocking Zhanlong's retreat, and a large amount of magma flowed down from the collapsed area above.

As a last resort, Zhanlong quickly drilled into the passage, and the cave behind him was submerged and buried little by little by the rubble and magma.
