章 593: Nidoking Vs Nidorino

"No, going there would be dangerous. Even though we have an escape strategy, they will know about us and will act. So, we will start to kill some of the pseudo-king rank Pokemons and then we will go after 1 hour. ", said Axel.

They started to kill some of the pseudo-king rank Pokemons. These Pokemons were not guarded by king-rank Pokemons as they had already killed them.

All of them would use mass hypnosis and since most of these Pokemons were already sleeping, the move would be effective. There were some guards that were guarding the place but it was no problem for them.

They were able to kill the herd of Tauros and Beedrill and also Butterfree. Then they killed the herd of Rapidash.

"Sir, these Pokemons are so stupid. Till now, they had not been able to detect us.", said Alon with a smile.

"No, they are not stupid. They didn't expect us to attack them like this. Now we should go. It had already been 2 hours and we cannot stay here for long.", said Axel.

"Can't we just kill some of them? This will reduce the pressure in the future.", suggested Lance.

"No, we won't. Now, let's go.", said Axel, and all of them returned towards the human settlement.

###

"Haha, we were able to kill 10 tier 1 king rank Pokemons and also many pseudo-king rank Pokemons. We did very well this time.", said Alon with a smile.

They were now in a meeting and all of them shared the details of the operation.

"Yes, but we will not be able to claim those bodies.", said Hector with a sigh.

Since they killed all these Pokemons in the enemy ground, they could not carry these dead Pokemons with them. Dead bodies of king-rank Pokemons would gain them a lot of money but now they could not claim them.

"It is okay Hector. This would reduce the pressure by a lot. I want to see how they will react now.", said Axel with an evil smile.

Before, all of them were scared of this tide. None of them thought that they could come out alive from it. But after Axel took control, they were sure that they would survive this tide. At least the city would survive it.

Now, they were practically bullying these wild Pokemons. Axel had really changed it all. He was qualified to become the leader of this tide.

"Sir, I have a question. I just could not understand why we didn't do the maximum damage to them?", asked Alon.

He wanted to finish other king-rank Pokemons too. Even though they were near tier 3 king rank Arcanine, they were not so near. Arcanine would be able to feel the disturbance, but if they were fast, they might be able to finish 1 or 2 king rank Pokemons before they could return. However, Axel didn't want that.

"My motive was to not only kill those king-rank Pokemons but also create an imbalance between them. If those king rank Pokemons saw us, they would naturally know that we were the ones that killed them.

If they know about it, they might rally together and come at us at the same time. This will be bad for us.", said Axel.

"But won't they know that this was our job? I mean yes, they didn't see that we are the ones that did it but isn't that the only explanation?", asked Alon.

"Of course, it is the only explanation but would all of them believe it? Remember, all of them are king-rank Pokemons so they naturally have their own arrogance.

Till now, they are under one Pokemon cause they believed that Pokemon. So even if the second leader said that all of them were going to die, they believed it but none of them wanted to die. But they still believed Arcanine. But now, some of the king-rank Pokemons have died.

The logical explanation would be that we are the ones that did it but they could not be 100% sure about it. A seed of doubt has been created and I believe that now, not all of them would follow the second leader.", said Axel.

Sometimes Axel felt bad cause he was blessed with such intelligence. He might even be more crafty than Black Zetsu of the Naruto world.

None of them had thought about it to such an extent so all of them were surprised to hear it.

"So, do I go again and gather intelligence there?", asked Alon.

"No, that would be foolish. Now, all of them must be on high alert so it is not going to happen. We need to prepare ourselves. Tomorrow we might be facing a lot of king-rank Pokemons.

Now, let's go and fight those ghost-type Pokemons, and let's finish them this time.", said Axel and stood up to go the battle.

###

The ghost-type Pokemons only consisted of pseudo-king rank Pokemons. Shedinja had lived with ghost type Pokemons for a long time and he had become friends with them. But these ghost-type Pokemons didn't share that thought.

Since Shedinja had been living with these ghost-type Pokemons, it knew all the things about them. It knew how they fought and it also knew their weakness. It was going to use that weakness to its advantage.

Shedinja first used 'Invisibility' to disappear. 'Invisibility' had leveled up nicely and now it had new functions too. It had become more powerful than before and it was now almost impossible for pseudo-king rank Pokemons to notice it.

It then used 'Substitute' and created 3 substitutes. All of these substitutes used the move 'Shadow absorption' and became stronger. Then all of them started to use the move 'Shadow ball'.

'Shadow ball' had also leveled up and now it was level 60. 3 shadow balls were hovering around on one of the substitutes. The ball was bigger, darker and it was spinning at a very high rate.

Then..

BANG!!! BANG!!! BANG!!!

All these balls went and started to hit these pseudo-king rank Pokemons. The move so so lethal that most of the pseudo-king rank Pokemon died in a single hit.

The power of the move was very high and it was high penetrating power. Shedinja was now watching the battle and telling its substitutes to take over. It was also looking over its friends so that it could protect them.

The battle went on for a whole night and Shedinja and others pushed themselves to the limit. Finally, all the ghost and dark-type Pokemons were killed. This was a minor milestone for them.

"YEah!!! We did it!!!" shouted one of the soldiers and others also followed it.

###

Meanwhile,

Axel's prediction had come out true. There was a pandemonium in the forest.

"Arcanine, what the hell is happening? How can so many of our friends be killed? Was it really you?", asked Charizard a tier 2 king-rank Pokemon.

"What do you mean by that? I was right here with you. How can I kill them? And why would I really kill them?"

"You might not be the one who killed them but they died under your leadership. I have wanted to sacrifice my life under your command. It looks like I was wrong."

"Charizard, this must be the work of humans. We should fight together."

"And what? Just die? No, I want to live and I will take my family with me. I respected you so I will not kill you but I don't want my family to die with me.", said Charizard and went out with his family.

It didn't want to stay in the south side of the forest anymore. However, it had to cross a big sea to reach someplace and it felt that it was the safe option.

Others were also reacting in the same way. Some of them were so angry that they said to set out tomorrow for the final battle and some of them left like Charizard. Arcanine could not believe it. It was going to die but it wanted to sacrifice for its children and wife but now all of these things were going out of control.

There were some king-rank Pokemons that still believed Arcanine and chose to follow them but they were very less in numbers. There were only 2 tier 2 king-rank Pokemons and 5 tier 1 king-rank Pokemons that chose to follow Arcanine.

2 tier 2 king-rank Pokemons and 6 tier 1 king-rank Pokemons were going to fight tomorrow till the end. They knew that they were going to die but these humans had killed a lot of their family members. They just could not sit here doing nothing.

Others left the forest with their families. Now the Pokemons had been divided, Arcanine knew that it was impossible to follow his plan. When his father was killed, he wanted to kill those humans but he realized that the power of these humans was too much. There was also a powerful Alakazam guarding them. Its power was so huge that Arcanine could not comprehend it.

Then he decided to give those humans a taste of their own medicine, kill some of their important people, and then lay down a good plan for his children but now even that plan was not going to work.

Now he had to the ultimate choice and he was ready for it.

###

The next day,

All of them were ready. They were told that they would be facing a large number of wild Pokemons today and this might be the final fight.

Some of them were already relaxed cause very few of them had died this time and they didn't feel that they were going to die so soon.

A group of 7 king-rank Pokemons with their families came to fight. The number was not that huge.

Nidorino and Golem were the tier 2 king-rank Pokemons that had come up to fight with humans.

"Axel, I will take on that Nidorino. I want to show the power of Nidoking.", said Nidoking to Axel.

Normally, Axel would not have agreed as Nidoking was a tier 1 king-rank Pokemon and Nidorino was a tier 2 king-rank Pokemon but even though it had not reached tier 2, Nidoking was very strong. It was only due to its 2 cores that it had not ranked up.

This might be the thing that Nidoking needed to rank up to tier 2 so he agreed.

###

Nidoking came near Nidorino to fight.

"What kind of monstrosity are you?", asked Nidorino. It had never seen its final evolved form but it could feel that both of them were very similar.

"You don't need to know that. You just need to die.", said Nidoking and immediately used 'Sludge wave' and created a huge area filled with poison.

Nidorino was also a poison-type Pokemon and it had very high resistance to poison.

"Even though you are big, you are very stupid.", said Nidorino as it laughed at Nidoking. Even though the move had power and it did injure Nidorino a bit, it was not poisoned.

It immediately went to attack. It used the move 'Horn attack'. Now 'Horn attack' was a regular move but this Nidorino had trained this move for many decades. So, the move was obviously very powerful.

As it was running towards Nidoking, Nidoking closed its eyes for a second and opened it again. It used the move 'Focus energy'. After leveling past level 45, 'Focus energy' could be used instantly and it would directly increase its defense and attack to a higher level.

Nidoking had become slow as its body was huge and it was very heavy but after using 'Focus energy', it could concentrate very well. So it turned its body and used the move 'Iron tail'.

Its tail and Nidorino's horn collided and 'Horn attack' came on top but such a small injury would not affect Nidoking. It grabbed Nidorino and then immediately used the move 'Thunder punch'.
