Groudon’s subsequent actions completely validated Kubfu’s thoughts.

Suddenly, it stomped its right foot on the ground, and the strange patterns on its body emitted a crimson glow, resembling flowing magma.

An incomparably mighty energy was released from Groudon, surging into the earth.

The next second, a gigantic ”Stone Sword” burst out from the ground, rushing at high speed straight towards Kubfu’s position!

”Beyah!”

Facing that terrifying scene, Kubfu’s heart rang with alarm bells.

If it were a normal Pokemon, it would probably abandon the fight and flee due to this frightening aura.

But Pokemon like Kubfu are born with an indomitable spirit.

They develop their willpower through training, never cowering from an opponent’s attack.

As the massive Stone Sword was about to strike, Kubfu focused its mind, fixed its gaze on the target, and then leapt to the side with force.

Dodged!

However, the Stone Sword, as if equipped with an auto-navigation system, changed direction and continued its pursuit as soon as it saw Kubfu evade.

”Boom boom boom!”

The sound of the earth cracking continuously echoed, and in the blink of an eye, the gigantic ”Stone Sword” formed a circle, trapping Kubfu inside.

The air was filled with scorching sulfuric fumes, and Earth Vein Energy hadn’t dispersed from Precipice Blades, continuously emitting rolling heatwaves, making the surrounding space appear blurred.

Primal Reversion Groudon opened its golden eyes, letting out an ancient roar towards the sky, releasing its pressure and terrifying power with abandon.

A moment later, Groudon seemed to calm down.

It looked quite appreciative towards the tiny Kubfu.

Unexpectedly, this little fellow showed no fear facing its pressure, maintaining a calm posture to evade.

Nice!

”Little one, am I mightier than that other guy?” Groudon asked.

All it had just done seemed to be a display of its mighty power to Kubfu, to overshadow Kyogre.

Naoki: ”...”

Indeed, that’s very Groudon.

Kubfu also understood the specific meaning behind this Pokemon’s recent actions.

It couldn’t help but break out in a sweat and turned back to look at Naoki: ”Beyah...”

These two Pokemon don’t seem to get along, do they?

Naoki comforted, ”That’s their business, has nothing to do with us. You just need to focus on learning the skills of both of them.”

Upon hearing this, Groudon glanced at Naoki, seemingly wanting to say something.

But it suddenly thought of something, decisively shut its mouth.

Relying on others isn’t a good feeling...

Hmm? Naoki noticed Groudon peeking at him: ”What’s wrong, Groudon?”

Groudon immediately shook its enormous head.

If it spoke its mind, given this human’s character, it would definitely be told to leave...

If it left, it couldn’t return.

Probably nowhere in this world is more comfortable than here.

Groudon imagined its archenemy Kyogre basking in luxury on the World Tree, enjoying absorbing Natural Energy, while it was alone in a remote volcano crying.

”...”

Groudon decisively chose to play dumb.

Its focus returned to Kubfu, then it said to it:

”Battle me!”

Kubfu looked bewildered: ”Beyah?!”

Fighting Groudon? Really?

Groudon: ”Afraid?”

Upon hearing this, Kubfu immediately shook its head, its gaze gradually becoming determined.

”Beyah!”

”Very well.”

The next second, Groudon unleashed a strong burst of Earth Vein Energy from its body, and the familiar Earth Sword thrust out again.

Kubfu began to sprint at high speed, dodging Groudon’s attacks while charging towards it.

As Kubfu was about to approach, Groudon narrowed its eyes slightly.

The next second, a colossal Precipice Blade thrust out from beneath Kubfu’s feet, sending it flying into the air.

Kubfu instantly lost its ability to battle.

Naoki furrowed his brow, quickly ran up to check Kubfu’s condition, then used the Power of Viridian to heal its injuries.

The green glow surged through Naoki’s palm, pure Natural Energy frantically converging into Kubfu’s body.

In no time, Kubfu gradually awoke.

”Beyah...”

Compared to Kyogre’s special training, Groudon’s training was truly simple and crude, increasing experience and honing skills through battling it.

For Pokemon like Kubfu, this method is undoubtedly the most suitable.

But the issue is Groudon is too powerful.

With Kubfu’s current strength, there’s no chance of winning.

After a moment’s contemplation, Naoki said to Groudon: ”Groudon, try a different method!”

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Kubfu’s voice behind him: ”Beyah!”

Naoki was slightly stunned, then turned to ask: ”You want to continue challenging Groudon?”

”Beyah!” Kubfu steadfastly nodded.

Naoki lowered his head, making eye contact with Kubfu.

”...Alright.” Naoki compromised.

In some ways, this is also the Pokemon’s own choice.

Just like Ash’s Charizard, which opted to stay in Charizard Valley to strengthen its power through constant battles with other Charizards there.
