Chapter 54: Chapter 54: A Song For You
"Then I'll be the referee."
Sabrina was also very tactful to act as the referee. She walked to the command area and announced: "Now it's a one-on-one match between Gary and Takahashi. The battle begins."
"Dodrio, let them know how powerful we are. Tri Attack." Takahashi attacked first.
The Dodrio in front of him seemed to have just evolved. Takahashi asked it to use Tri Attack right away.
Tri Attack is a special attack move, and Dodrio's special attack ability is not very good.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
The beaks of Dodrio's three bird heads opened, and each head shot out a different color beam. Three different beams of red, yellow, and blue attacked Blastoise.
"Hydro Pump!"
Gary also took the initiative to fight back.
"Blastoise!"
Blastoise bent its knees slightly, adjusted the angle, and burst out two Hydro Pumps from its shoulder cannons. The two skills collided, and Hydro Pump overwhelmed the Tri Attack and knocked Dodrio back, making it look like a drenched bird.
"What!"
Takahashi couldn't believe that his Dodrio couldn't beat Blastoise. Tri Attack was directly crushed, which meant that there was a big gap in the levels between the two.
In fact, the level difference between the two was not that big, but Blastoise had the best Mystic Water, and coupled with Blastoise's own special structure, the power of Hydro Pump was naturally stronger.
"Water Pulse continuous shooting!" Gary continued to chase.
"Blastoise!"
Blastoise's cannons sprayed water balls again, and normal-sized water balls were fired continuously.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
Dodrio immediately ran to one side of the field, and the super-fast explosive power instantly opened up the distance, making the water balls miss, but Blastoise moved slightly, and Water Gun continued to chase.
Seeing that Dodrio was able to dodge Blastoise's attack with its speed, Takahashi immediately ordered: "Very good, use Quick Attack to attack Blastoise."
Dodrio pulled out a series of phantoms, came in front of Blastoise, and used its body to tackle Blastoise, causing it to stagger back two steps. After stabilizing, Blastoise opened its mouth to Spit Up Water Pulse, but Dodrio used its legs to jump to the side and easily avoided it.
"This speed is really fast." Gary used to look down on Dodrio, but now seeing that Dodrio moved so quickly, he immediately looked up to it.
"What a solid defense, Dodrio, use Acupressure on yourself." Takahashi saw that Dodrio's Quick Attack did not cause any damage to Blastoise, and immediately asked Dodrio to use Acupressure to improve its own ability.
Dodrio poked its body with its beak, and a random ability was greatly improved, but it was not clear what ability was improved.
"Dodrio, use Pluck to attack!" Takahashi said as he attacked.
"Blastoise, use the shell retraction."
Blastoise immediately retracted into its shell. Seeing this, Dodrio was aroused and pecked at Blastoise's shell.
Gary was also confused. Dodrio really dared to approach. He didn't think that Blastoise couldn't attack after retracting into the shell.
"High-speed water flow burst!" Gary ordered immediately.
Blastoise used Rapid Spin, and a series of water blades surrounded the shell. The rotation accelerated, and the water flow turned into a series of water blades.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
Dodrio was shocked. It didn't expect Blastoise to be able to counterattack under this condition. It blocked it but had no time to dodge. It was hit by the water blade of Rapid Spin and flew several meters away and fell to the ground.
"Beep...!"
Dodrio's three heads drooped on the ground, and its eyes were spinning.
"Dodrio lost its ability to fight. Blastoise wins!" Sabrina announced.
"This..." Takahashi couldn't believe it. His Dodrio had just evolved recently, and he was planning to find a rival to test its strength, but he didn't expect to fail in the first battle.
"I won," Gary said.
"Blastoise!"
Blastoise also flexed its arm muscles temporarily to show that it was invincible.
"I lost. As agreed, the electric guitar is yours." Takahashi also kept his promise and only lent his electric guitar to Gary to play a section, so there was no loss.
"I admit it."
Gary took the electric guitar and waved to Sabrina, saying: "Sabrina, come here, I'll sing for you."
"Huh?"
Sabrina, who was about to come over, was stunned. Her originally calm heartbeat was agitated, and she could faintly hear her heartbeat.
"Brother... you can do it." Takahashi immediately understood that Gary wanted the electric guitar to pick up girls.
Although Gary's method was very good, the song had to be sung well, otherwise, this trick would not work.
Takahashi was also very curious about what song Gary would sing.
Not only that, but many passers-by around were also attracted by the battle here. When they saw that Gary was still planning to sing, they also gathered around curiously.
"Gary... what song are you singing?" Sabrina asked timidly. Although she was very shy, she also wanted to know what Gary was going to sing.
"It's a song I created myself. If it's not good, don't blame me," Gary said.
Sabrina couldn't help but want to roll her eyes at Gary.
You are the one who wants to sing. If it's not good, who else can I blame?
"Hurry up and sing," Sabrina urged.
"Okay, let's start."
Gary played a few notes. The sound was good and there was no need to adjust. Then, a light and melodious rhythm sounded.
"I can't say why, I became very proactive."
"If you fall in love with someone, everything will be worth doing."
"I want to announce loudly that I can't let go of you."
"...!"
Gary sang passionate lyrics one after another. The song was full of youthful vitality, and the boy's excited voice instantly made Gary the most handsome boy in this public training ground.
"Wow, what song is this? I've never heard it before. It's so nice."
"This guy is great. He's already picking up girls at such a young age."
"Handsome boy, sister is willing to wait for you for eight years."
People who originally wanted to see what song Gary would sing were instantly attracted by Gary's singing, especially the girls, whose faces were all bright, as if Gary was singing to them.
"I want to hold your hand like this and never let go."
"Can love always be pure and without sadness?"
"I... want to take you for a bike ride."
"I... want to watch baseball with you."
"I want to walk without worries... singing songs all the time."
"...!"
When the song reached the climax, Sabrina was stunned for a moment. The lyrics were exactly about what she encountered when she and Gary were together.
Except for not watching baseball together, they had done everything else.
Suddenly, Sabrina felt her heart warm up, her heartbeat accelerated, and her beautiful eyes stared at Gary, her eyes were drawn.
The girls around looked at Sabrina with envy. If a boy as nice as Gary treated them like this, they would want to get married right away.
