Chapter 494 The Famous Midas Touch Li Shuwen
Upon witnessing Li Shuwen's Golden Magikarp use Water Cannon, the boy's expression immediately changed.
He also has a golden Magikarp, and his golden Magikarp can also use Water Gun.
Therefore, he understands better than the average trainer just how exaggerated Magikarp's Hydro Pump is.
This isn't Magikarp at all, it's practically a Gyarados hiding inside Magikarp!
With just one Water Gun, he had already pinned the boy and his golden Magikarp down.
The boy clenched his fist stubbornly. "Leaping over the Dragon Gate isn't something you can achieve just by using a powerful water cannon. I underwent the world's toughest training with Magikarp!"
"Today's victors will definitely be me and Magikarp!"
Upon hearing his words, Kai immediately showed an expression of admiration, "I didn't expect you to pass all three trials of the Golden Magikarp, that's amazing!"
The boy's eyes widened, and he turned to look at Kai, asking, "What did you say? What three great trials?"
Akai was taken aback. "It's just Star Mushroom, Jormungandr Fruit, and Moonless Night Ephemeral Flower. Didn't you and your Golden Magikarp undergo the trials?"
The boy blushed. "That kind of test is outdated now. Training Pokémon should be done using scientific methods!"
In fact, the boy had tried the simplest Jormungandr with the golden Magikarp.
However, his body could not withstand the water pressure of the deep sea where the Tree of Jormungandr was located. Although the boy had worked hard to train his body and used high technology to set off again.
The result was that he was directly blown away by Milotic's tornado.
Kai blinked, puzzled. "But Professor Yamanashi said that these three trials can help Magikarp develop its potential to the greatest extent, right?"
The boy looked at Kai in shock. "You just said Professor Yamanashi? The most authoritative Pokémon professor in the Sinnoh region, Professor Yamanashi!?"
Akai nodded. "Probably. Anyway, I only know one Dr. Yamanashi, the one who lives in Masago Town."
The boy looked at Li Shuwen, then at Akai, and asked, "Do you two know each other, which is why you've been speaking up for him?"
Akai readily admitted, "Of course, he's my master, the head of the Veiled Dojo, the Midas Touch Li Shuwen!"
The boy took two steps back, sized up Li Shuwen, and said, "You're the Midas Touch Li Shuwen!"
The boy remembered the discussions on the Trainer Forum about Li Shuwen, the Gym Leader of the Veiled Gym, who, besides his Midas Touch ability, also possessed other special abilities.
His biggest advantage is that he's handsome, and he has red hair!
The person in front of me did indeed have red hair, and his face was handsome and authoritative.
The boy immediately believed that his competitor was none other than Li Shuwen, the Midas Touch.
The boy was suddenly filled with despair, thinking that he and the golden carp king would not be the first to leap over the dragon gate.
The boy suddenly realized a possibility: today is the Dragon Gate Tournament, a crucial moment for Magikarp to evolve into Gyarados!
He ran into Li Shuwen, the Midas Touch!
The Midas touch means that his golden Magikarp can evolve into a golden Gyarados!
This is a good thing!
With Li Shuwen's Midas touch, the boy felt that the possibility of his golden Magikarp evolving into a golden Gyarados was one thousand percent!
The boy's sorrow instantly turned to joy. "Magikarp, we must do our best! We absolutely cannot lose to the Librarian's Magikarp!"
A fighting spirit gleamed in the eyes of the golden Magikarp; he would prove to the Magikarp beside him that he was the true dragon!
The golden Magikarp remained calm, clearly not considering it a rival.
The Golden Magikarp firmly believes that he has only one opponent!
That was him!
On this path to the Dragon Gate, the Golden Carp King must break its own limits, leap over the Dragon Gate, and transform into a true dragon!
The organizers provided hot air balloons for the participants so they could follow their Pokémon from the air.
Of course, many trainers, in order to be one with their Pokémon, do not use hot air balloons, but instead climb the mountain via the steel rope path beside the river.
It's the same road that Li Shuwen and his group took to the Dragon Pool on Mount Akina last time.
Li Shuwen, Akai, and young Atao all chose to take the mountain path.
Only by experiencing the hardships of the journey up the mountain can trainers resonate with the will of their Pokémon and promote the evolution of Magikarp.
As the starting gun fired, the first group of Pokémon set off swiftly towards the Dragon Pool at the mountaintop.
If you observe carefully, you can see that with these twenty-odd Pokémon swimming upstream, the water flow does slow down slightly.
Among these twenty-odd Pokémon, two golden beams shot out like arrows.
The golden Magikarp glanced to the side, surprised that it could keep up with his speed.
The golden magikarp immediately flicked its tail, increasing its speed once again.
The commentator was incredibly excited, exclaiming, "It's a golden Magikarp! I never expected two golden Magikarp to appear at the same time in this competition!"
"They swim faster than a Rapidash and fly faster than a Pidgeot! In such a short time, they've already reached the first bend!"
"But with such a long race, and maintaining this pace from the start, can they keep it up until the final goal?"
The boy glanced at Li Shuwen's back as he easily caught up with the two Magikarp, and gritted his teeth to speed up as well.
If they kept running like this, the boy worried that he would be the first to collapse.
Just then, the boy heard an excited shout from behind: "Lobster soldiers, we can't lose to them! Charge forward!"
"Our youth cannot stand still!"
The lobster soldier raised its two large pincers, shouted excitedly, and chased after the two Magikarp, creating a huge splash.
The boy couldn't help but turn around and glance at Akai, who was shouting and yelling, but whose speed was getting faster and faster.
Damn it, doesn't he need to breathe?
Isn't that lung capacity a bit superhuman?
Before the golden Magikarp could be caught by the lobster minions, the boy was easily overtaken by Guy.
The boy saw in that agile movement as if he were looking at a hyperactive ape.
The boy's lips twitched. So this was the disciple of Li Shuwen, the Master of Midas Touch?
Isn't that a bit too exaggerated?
Li Shuwen didn't consider the boy and the golden Magikarp as opponents at all; his Aura power was constantly monitoring the situation of the golden Magikarp.
Golden Magikarp must constantly push its limits to evolve into Golden Gyarados!
Li Shuwen said, "Magikarp, go faster!"
The golden Magikarp's eyes widened. "No, you can be even faster?!"
Upon receiving Li Shuwen's instructions, the Golden Magikarp activated its full potential, increasing its speed once again.
It easily outpaced the golden Magikarp.
The golden Magikarp also wanted to speed up, but given its physical condition, if it accelerated further, it might not be able to cross the Dragon Gate.
The commentator's voice cracked with excitement, "Li Shuwen's golden Magikarp is still accelerating! This is the first time we've seen this in the history of the Lungmen Tournament!"
"At the current speed, Li Shuwen can at least halve the time!"
Li Shuwen's eyes gleamed with a blue light. "Not enough! Not enough!"
