Pokemon Dawn

Mu Shou Gong rarely encounters such a tough opponent.

Moving in the woods is what Wood Gecko is best at. The green little lizard jumps between the branches, and the barbs on its feet are tightly attached to the branches where it rests, allowing it to perform many actions that ordinary Pokémon cannot do.

However, this happens to be the movement method that monkey monsters are good at. As a Pokémon in monkey form, how can it not be good at jungle warfare?

Xiao Ye has long seen that Mu Shou Gong's fighting style is one that focuses on mobility and speed. His movement skills in the forest allow him to always gain the upper hand in the battle. However, when this advantage is also given to his opponent, the thin physique

Mu Shou Gong will be in a hard fight.

Realizing that he could not suppress the opponent in terms of speed, Mu Shou Gong frowned.

Turning around, many luminous green leaves appeared around Mu Shou Gong, and the circulating hazy light carried a somewhat mysterious atmosphere. As his thoughts turned, the suspended leaves turned into sharp blades that attacked the monkey monster.

Magic Leaf Slash?

Xiao Ye immediately recognized the type of this skill. For the Mu Shou Gong clan, the skill Magic Leaf Slash is not very common and can only be obtained through genetic means.

However, this cannot change the fact that the power of the Magic Leaf Slash itself is not powerful.

The monkey monster's strong fist flashed with bright light, and it struck out quickly again and again, dancing like a windmill and colliding head-on with the Magic Leaf Slash. The broken leaves that had lost their strength fell down, and the debris stuck to the monkey monster's hand.

Palm.

That's close combat, one of the strongest skills in the fighting system.

The momentum of the random fists was not stopped by the Demon Leaf Slash. The monkey monster continued to rampage, shooting down the slightly stunned Mu Shou Gong together, and creating a depression in the land.

Standing up despite the pain, Mu Shou Gong stared at the monkey monster who was unharmed and proudly waving his fist.

The gap in strength is obvious, and Mu Shou Gong has long been aware of this. But realizing it does not mean that he wants to give up the possibility of victory.

If it is for victory...

Mu Shou Gong closed his eyes and thought for a few seconds. Then he turned to look at Xiao Ye and let out a low cry.

"'Please fight with me,' that's what it said." Pichu scratched his head and acted as a translator, "The tone of this article is really strange."

Xiao Ye cast her eyes on Mu Shou Gong, "You want to win, don't you?"

Mu Shou Gong nodded calmly and resolutely, with no hesitation in his bright yellow pupils.

"I understand." Xiaoye smiled and took two steps forward, "I will fight with you."

The monkey monster looked at Xiao Ye and Mu Shou Gong talking with confusion, shook his head, and roared to the sky, obviously very unhappy with Mu Shou Gong's distracted behavior during the battle.

With his feet exerting force, the monkey monster sprang out, and its powerful fist hit Mu Shou Gong again.

"Jump to a tree to take cover."

Xiao Ye's instructions made Mu Shou Gong slightly startled. Until now, it had been trying to gain an advantage by moving in the bushes. However, the monkey monster's equally strong skills made it have to give up this idea. Xiao Ye should have seen the previous battle.

Here we are, why are we still giving such instructions when we obviously can't gain speed advantage in the trees?

Mu Shou Gong turned his head and saw the seriousness and thoughtfulness in Xiao Ye's eyes.

So, despite not understanding the trainer's behavior, the green little lizard obeyed Xiao Ye's instructions for the first time. Jumping up, Mu Shou Gong avoided the monkey monster's punch and nimbly climbed to the branch.

The monkey monster jumped up without hesitation, and Xiaoye's voice arrived at the same time.

"Launch a lightning flash directly upward."

Another instruction with unclear meaning.

Mu Shou Gong jumped up without knowing what was going on, dragging a bright white light strip behind him. Looking down at his opponent, Mu Shou Gong was stunned.

The monkey monster had also jumped into the air, but at this moment it was frowning and closing its eyes tightly.

…It’s the sun!

At this time, the time was approaching noon, and the sun was directly above the head. The monkey monster's gaze followed the vertically jumping Mu Shou Gong, and he was caught off guard and dazzled by the scorching sun.

Chance!

Mu Shou Gong's Magic Leaf Slash was launched almost as a reflex, and the leaves with a faint brilliance hit the target; the monkey monster, who had nowhere to escape, fell to the ground with a howl and rolled around holding its injured nose.

Landing lightly, Mu Shou Gong suddenly realized that he was not used to fighting under the command of a trainer and had made an attack without permission.

Remember the last time this happened, the boy seemed to have angrily taught him not to make his own decisions? Mu Shou Palace suddenly remembered some distant past events.

"Good judgment." Xiao Ye's still calm voice made Mu Shou Gong startled.

Mu Shou Gong looked up in surprise, and before Mu Shou Gong could see the purple-haired trainer's expression clearly, the voice came again, "Watch your step."

Hearing this, Mu Shou Gong immediately jumped to the side. The angry monkey monster let out a hoarse roar. At the place where he just landed, several rocks broke out of the ground and squeezed together violently, making a heart-wrenching roar.

Creaking sound.

Monkey's rock seal.

Immediately, the broken stones were thrown violently by the monkey monster. Without Xiaoye's instructions, Mu Shugong dodged between the rocks, deftly dodging the angry pursuit of the monkey monster.

It no longer looked in Xiaoye's direction, but its first smile since joining the team slowly appeared on its face.

Can win.

Although the opponent was very powerful, Mu Shou Gong firmly had this idea in his mind.

When the sun was at its zenith, the battle was over.

Mu Shou Gong, who was almost exhausted, stood up straight and stared at the scarred monkey monster, taking a trembling step towards him.

Then, he finally fell to the ground dejectedly.

This is the first time that Mu Shou Gong has defeated such a powerful enemy, and it is also the first time that Mu Shou Gong has taken the initiative to seek cooperation with a human trainer.

Although it is used to fighting as it wants, Mu Shou Palace was surprised to find that the instructions of the young trainer behind him did not restrain it at all. It still always attacks or dodges without authorization, but every action outside of the instructions is unrestricted.

He was tolerated and strengthened by the trainer in an understatement. There was no rebuke or complaint, only new instructions that coincided with his own thoughts.

It was precisely by using this chaotic and orderly fighting method that it defeated an opponent stronger than itself.

Although his body was exhausted, Mu Shou Gong suddenly felt the relaxation and comfort he had not seen for a long time. Because this time it did not become a mechanical puppet under orders, but——

Fight together?

Yes, that's the feeling. It's not about who controls whom, or who relies on whom, but about becoming each other's strength and fighting together.

He used his last strength to move his gaze towards Xiaoye. In his field of vision, the purple-haired girl showed a gentle smile of praise, and the warmth of her smile was just as warm as when they first met her yesterday.

Then Mu Shou Gong fell on his back and fell into a deep sleep.
