thefictionvixens Chapter 47 Underground Arena
Chapter 47 Underground Arena
Although frozen into ice, the bear apprentice's sensory abilities were not blocked.
The bear apprentice witnessed a disc fly out from behind the silver-haired woman and land in front of him, as if using electromagnetic levitation to lift the bear apprentice, who was frozen into an ice block.
Placed on a disc, the disc forms a layer of transparent glass, protecting the bear apprentice.
"Initiate target retrieval."
The bear apprentice felt a strange sense of familiarity. Could this silver-haired woman be Hunter J?
The beam gun that freezes Pokémon into ice cubes and the beam gun used by Hunter J that turns Pokémon and people into bronze statues should be from the same technology series.
Being captured by hunters using such high technology is certainly worthy of the legendary Pokémon status of Kuma's apprentice.
It is hoped that collectors who purchase Bear's apprentice will not leave him in this frozen state indefinitely, but will give him a chance to turn things around and escape.
Supported by a disc, Xiong's apprentice was placed in the trunk of the off-road vehicle.
The two burly men driving the SUV were probably the silver-haired woman's henchmen.
One of the burly men sighed:
"Boss is really amazing. We couldn't find Xiong's apprentice after searching for a month, but on the first day you came, you found him in less than two and a half hours."
"After only three or five moves, he captured Xiong's apprentice."
A sense of pride rose in the bear apprentice's heart. It turned out that ever since he started imitating, the hunters had been searching for his trail in the forest.
Fortunately, he was cautious by nature and made his own ghillie suit to hide his body.
This allowed him to hold on for a month until the hunters' leader appeared.
The other burly man driving smiled faintly and said:
"Don't you know who the boss is! The boss is a top hunter who has earned a title in the Hunter Organization. With the boss personally taking action, this mere bear apprentice is a piece of cake."
The bear apprentice sighed silently; the silver-haired woman sounded more like Hunter J.
Without Ash Ketchum's help...
The bear apprentice will most likely be safely delivered to the seller.
Since he simulated the bear apprentice, he is most likely in the Galar region.
What was the name of the main character in the Galar region again?
Forget about hoping for the protagonist's rescue; let's figure out a way to save ourselves.
"I have to say, these rich people are really extravagant. They actually gave up such a rare Pokémon as Kubora to participate in the underground arena."
The underground arena! The bear apprentice immediately perked up.
He's not afraid of being sent to the underground arena, he's afraid of being kept at home as a collectible.
If he could organize a gladiator uprising, he might get his first S-rank rating.
Another burly man criticized, "What do you know! If the underground arena doesn't use Bear's apprentice, does it expect them to use Flying Kick Guy or Fast Fist Guy?"
"You paid a fortune to get into the underground arena just to watch Flying Kick Guy fight Fast Punch Guy?"
The burly man realized, "Big brother is right. It's definitely more attractive to have Xiong's apprentice. Spending 100 million to buy Xiong's apprentice will allow us to build an arena that can accommodate tens of thousands of people."
"The ticket price for just one game is enough to recoup the cost of buying Xiong's apprentice."
The bear apprentice was startled. An arena that could hold tens of thousands of people?
Where can I find such an underground arena?
They didn't know how long the off-road vehicle had been driving, but when they got out of the trunk, it was already night. All Xiong's apprentice could see was a giant arena that was brightly lit.
Whose underground arena is open-air, and so huge at that!
Doesn't Officer Jenny care about this?
Two burly men handed the disc containing Xiong's apprentice to a middle-aged man in a suit.
"I've handed over the items to you. Please settle the remaining payment within the agreed time."
The man in the suit nodded slightly. "It's confirmed, it's Xiong's apprentice. Don't worry, the final payment will definitely be settled within a week."
The disc followed the man in the suit, walked through the staff passage to a row of cells, found an empty cell, entered the password to open the gate, and put the bear apprentice inside.
The man in the suit manipulated the disc to release the bear apprentice from his frozen state.
A ring flew down from the wall and landed firmly around the bear's apprentice's neck.
The apprentice tentatively swung his fist at the man in the suit.
The man in the suit stood still, exuding elegance.
The ring released a strong electric current, and Xiong's apprentice felt a sudden darkness before his eyes and collapsed to the ground.
The man in the suit walked out of the cell and said calmly, "Give up. This is the latest technology; no Pokémon can break free."
"The more you struggle, the stronger the electric current will be released; you might really die."
The bear apprentice lay on the ground, based on his personal experience just now.
Wearing this ring makes it difficult to escape, let alone commit suicide.
Having spent so much money to buy the bear apprentice, how could I possibly let him die?
If you don't exploit and drain your apprentice of his full value, it will be difficult for him to die.
As for freedom...
It's estimated that you can only get it if you die.
"Get a good rest tonight; tomorrow is the perfect time for your official debut."
After the man in the suit left, a voice came from the cell next door.
"Roar!"
Don't waste your energy, you can't break free from this thing. Just accept your fate.
Although I have to fight desperately every night, as long as I don't die, I can receive the best medical treatment.
And we are given the best food every day.
Aside from the lack of freedom, it's actually better than life outside.
The bear apprentice raised an eyebrow. He remembered seeing a domineering panda in the Pokémon room next to his when he passed by earlier.
Along the way, I saw Lucario, Itachi, Sirfetch'd, Hawthorn, and Forsaken.
Even Dr. Yamanashi couldn't get his hands on a single abandoned monkey for research.
However, they were recruited by this underground arena to fight in underground boxing matches.
Ah!
Perhaps we could ask the abandoned monkeys here for advice on the Fist of Wrath.
Once they learn how to use the Fist of Rage, Li Shuwen can teach it to his Infernape after they leave.
Unexpectedly, there was an additional benefit.
"Hey, do you know the abandoned monkey, you domineering panda?"
The domineering panda asked curiously, "Who? Is there a Pokémon here?"
The bear apprentice raised an eyebrow. "It's that gray-black fiery monkey."
Overbearing Panda suddenly realized, "Oh, I know him. We just participated in a team battle together a few days ago. His fists are very special."
"So his name is Abandoned Monkey. What, you know him?"
The bear apprentice replied, "I don't know him. I've only heard that the Abandoned Monkey's fists are very special, and I'd like to know what makes his fist techniques so special."
"Then there's probably no hope. He's the kind of guy who never talks."
The bear apprentice nodded. It seemed that only he had personally witnessed the Abandoned Monkey use the Fist of Wrath when he participated in the team battle.
If Li Shuwen persisted in his questioning and the Abandoned Monkey revealed some details, he was confident he could teach the Fiery Monkey.
"Tyrant Panda, what kind of Pokémon did you encounter in the battles you participated in?"
The domineering panda replied, "I've never seen them in the wild. I've heard humans say they were planetary overlords from billions of years ago, and their names were... this dragon, that dragon."
Following the domineering panda's hint, the bear apprentice countered, "Is it called Strangejaw Dragon, or Fossilized Pteranodon?"
The domineering panda was a little excited. "Yes, yes, yes! That's it. I didn't expect that someone as new as you would know it."
The bear apprentice frowned slightly. "Are there any other Pokémon?"
"have……"
The domineering panda's voice revealed intense fear.
