Chapter 1008 Attitude

After traveling for so long, Xia You has seen Li, who has tried his best to run the gym well, no matter how many times he failed.

We also saw Qianli, who was not willing to take the gym business lightly.

We also see Kikuko, who is just as meticulous even when she is acting as the Gym Leader, despite being one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

But I have never seen anyone as irresponsible as Denci.

Even Sakaki, as the behind-the-scenes boss of Team Rocket, has he ever looked down on the profession of gym leader and given the badge to others casually?

Didn't they pull the three members of Team Rocket over to act as temporary guards when they really couldn't spare any manpower?

Let’s not talk about the strength of the three members of Team Rocket and whether they have the ability to defend the gym. Just Sakaki’s attitude is definitely much better than Denji’s!

What are gym badges?

It's not just a ticket to the conference.

What it represents is a summary, an achievement, and an honor after a trainer has grown in strength after a long adventure journey and defeated the gym leader. But it is definitely not a souvenir that can be given to others casually!

Although Denci's behavior did not tarnish the name of the museum owner, it was still quite irresponsible.

In fact, with Xia You's character, he never stands on the moral high ground to blame others.

But at this time, Denci's irresponsible attitude undoubtedly angered him.

He also knew what Denci was thinking.

After all, the anime makes it very clear that it is because Denji never lost in all the gym battles after becoming a gym leader that he gradually lost interest and became so negative that he didn't even deal with the gym's affairs.

But what can you do no matter how strong you are?

So what if you are very popular?

Everyone will encounter various problems in life, let alone a trivial matter that is not even a problem.

Since you are so unwilling to fight against the weak, why don't you learn from Mikoli, give the position of gym leader to someone else, and fight against the Four Heavenly Kings and Champions?

If you have lost even the most basic passion for Pokémon battles, what kind of gym leader are you!

So, Xia You’s summary of Dianci is very accurate, he is just pretending!

After he did this, everyone in Binhai City now knew that the gym leader of his city was unwilling to continue fighting because all the opponents he encountered were too weak, but what did this mean? Although it might not be Denji's original intention, it also distinguished him from the other gym leaders, just like now in Binhai Tower, looking high and mighty!

This is also what Xia You can't stand the most.

That's why he is so angry now!

He is just like that. When he meets those who are weak or have reasons for their misfortunes, he can understand and even help them to the best of his ability.

For example, Li from the Curtain Gym.

Although she is so weak, does Xia You have any intention of looking down on her?

On the contrary, he only sent out Pokémon of equal strength to challenge her, and did not say anything excessive because Li was not good at fighting!

But when he encounters such irresponsible people, he has to step on them a few times without hesitation!

Do you think you are strong?

Then let me show you what real strength is!

Denci naturally didn't know that the impression he left in Xia You's mind was extremely bad. To him, he only thought that he was the one who was visited and scolded for no reason, so he was also very angry!

Most importantly, he didn't think he had done anything wrong.

"These three Pokémon of yours?"

Denji's cold eyes swept over Gardevoir, Charizard and Gengar. Although he could feel their powerful aura, he did not take it to heart.

After all, he has seen Pokémon that have strong aura but poor strength before, so aura alone does not mean anything. More depends on the state and performance of the trainer and Pokémon!

"I understand." Denji smiled instead of getting angry, "Since you are so determined, I will accept your challenge! Once I defeat all three of your Pokémon, I will see that you will no longer be a trainer. I will see what you will have to say then!"

On the side, Ami opened her mouth, as if she wanted to persuade him.

But when he thought about the fact that one of these two people was a champion and the other was the strongest gym leader in Sinnoh, even though he was also a gym leader, he didn't have the confidence to stop them.

Can……

Why does this happen?

He even said he would stop being a trainer and disband the gym! ?

Compared to her, Xiaoyao and Mei obviously didn't expect things to turn out like this.

After all, Xia You was fine before arriving at the Marina Tower and taking the elevator. How come she seemed like a different person when she saw Denci?

However, the two women were smart people after all. They knew the reason after just one thought.

It must be Denci's attitude that angered Xia You!

But like Ami, neither of them came up to persuade them, or rather, they didn't want to do so in their hearts.

Why is that?

Of course, it’s because the two of them are Xia You’s companions now, so no matter what difficulties and challenges Xia You faces, they will always stand firmly by his side!

Let’s not talk about who is right or wrong. Even if it is Xia You’s fault, given their current relationship with Xia You, they would not go against him!

If there is any problem, they can solve it privately, but they will never disrupt Xia You's plan when there are outsiders around!

So even though they were very worried about Xia You, they didn't say a word.

Seeing that Denci accepted the challenge, Xia You stopped talking nonsense to him. He didn't make any move, and the next second, he and several Pokémon disappeared out of thin air!

The others were all stunned, and then they suddenly felt something and turned to look out the window.

Only then did he realize that Xia You had already reached high altitude outside at some point and was standing on Charizard with Gardevoir!

And that Gengar was also floating beside him!

No words were needed, Xia You just glanced at Dian Ci lightly, and then the Charizard flew down and carried it to the ground.

In fact, Denci originally wanted to take Xia You to the battlefield inside the seaside tower, but seeing that the man had already gone outside, he had no choice but to leave the seaside tower.

However, he didn't have a Pokémon like Xia You that could take him directly to the window and land safely, so he could only take the elevator next to him and go down to the first floor.

Just this comparison made his appearance pale in comparison.

But Denci just thought that the other party wanted to take the initiative and ignored it.

Seeing him enter the elevator, Ami, Xiaoyao and Yami hurriedly followed him in. When everyone was present, the elevator door closed and the elevator quickly went down.

While waiting to descend, the atmosphere in the elevator was inevitably a little awkward.

Xiaoyao and Yami didn't say anything, nor did they look at the screen. They just kept looking at the scenery outside through the glass wall of the elevator.

Ah Mi wanted to say something but stopped herself. Seeing her like this, Denci hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't worry about this matter. Although he is the person you brought here, I will definitely not let him go this time!"

It turns out that Denci has always thought that Ami was worried that he would hurt Xia You!

After hearing what he said, Ami's face became even more conflicted.

Of course she was not worried about Xia You.

After all, it was because of the battle with Xia You that she knew Xia You's strength, not to mention the fact that Xia You won the Silver Conference championship, which could be said to have spread throughout the land of Chengdu. Now, after such a long period of travel and training, he must have become stronger!

What she was worried about was actually the electricity!

To be honest, she had only known Denci for a short time and their friendship was not very deep, and the same was true of her relationship with Xia You.

But after all, they were both gym leaders, and he had chatted with Denci for a while before, so he had a very good impression of him. He couldn't bear to see him get to the point where his gym had to be closed.

but now……

Especially in front of Xiaoyao and Yami, she didn't know what to say.

Ugh……

Mr. Xia You...

I hope you know the answer!

It didn't take long before the few people got off the elevator, left the Marina Tower, and came to an open space on the side. They happened to see Xia You standing in the distance, waiting for their arrival leisurely.

Beside him, the three Pokémon were also standing there quietly. Even without looking, Denji could feel that the three Pokémon's gazes were focused on him at this moment!

Somehow, Denci suddenly felt tremendous pressure.

What's going on here?

How come you feel this way?

Denci seemed very unfamiliar with this feeling which had not appeared for many years.

And in a trance, his mind couldn't help but recall the time when he was a child, when he had just become a trainer and had just started traveling, and he met the first gym leader.

He no longer remembers the name and appearance of the museum owner, but he still remembers that at that time... he seemed to have felt such pressure from him!

And in that gym battle, he unexpectedly suffered a crushing defeat!

He frowned and put the feeling away. While keeping a straight face, he couldn't help but secretly laugh in his heart.

Why did you suddenly remember what happened at that time?

Now I... am no longer a rookie trainer!

On the contrary, I have become the strongest gym leader in Sinnoh, and I have become an existence that makes others feel helpless and pressured!

Standing on the other side of the open space, Denji also took out three Poké Balls from his waist bag.

"It's really interesting. Since I became the gym leader, I have always been the first to release the Pokémon, giving the challenger enough time to prepare. I didn't expect that today it would be the other way around. I have to say, you are really brave to do this in front of me."

In fact, if it were any other time, Denci would not have said such words, but it was obvious that the man opposite him had completely angered him, so his tone subconsciously became a little sharper.

But Xia You didn't respond at all.

He has already said everything he needs to say, so why waste time talking? Just start fighting.

After all, no matter how much you say, in the end you still need to take action to prove it!

Xia You looked at him coldly: "Don't waste my time, now quickly choose one of these three Pokémon to be your opponent, or... you can fight them all."

At this point, Denci also knew that the best way to teach this ignorant man a lesson was to defeat him with Pokémon, so he stopped talking nonsense and looked at Xia You's three Pokémon again.

And with all the pride of being the strongest gym leader in Sinnoh, Denji didn't bother to actually choose anything, so he just pointed at Gengar at random.

Gengar grinned.

"Me? You really have good taste!"

Denji was surprised that Gengar could talk, but now was not the time to be surprised. He raised the Poké Ball, and the next second, with a flash of blue light, a Jolteon appeared in the open space!

Jolteon?

When they saw this Pokémon, both Xia You and Gengar showed strange smiles.

This also made Denci very strange.

What are they laughing at?

In fact, it was not only Denci who didn't understand, even Xiaoyao didn't know. As one of Xia You's first few Pokémon, if you asked which Pokémon Gengar knew Xia You best, it was definitely not his original Pokémon Gardevoir, nor the powerful Charizard, but Xia You's Jolteon!

As the Jolteon who has accompanied Xia You in the battles in Kanto and Johto for a long time, due to his personality, Gengar has played with his Jolteon many times and has witnessed many battles with it!

This also makes it quite familiar with Pokémon like Jolteon.

It can be said that Denji was unlucky to send Jolteon to fight against Gengar.

Of course, even if Gengar doesn't know anything about Jolteon, it doesn't really matter.

It’s just a gym owner’s main Pokémon, what can it do?

As it thought this, it turned and glanced at its trainer.

And Xia You also looked back at it.

After such a long period of tacit understanding, Geng Gui knows Xia You's thoughts very well. Just by looking at his eyes, it knows what to do.

After returning a look to Xia You, Geng Gui walked forward and came to the center of the venue.

At the same time, the Jolteon also came in front of it, and the two Pokémon faced each other at a distance of seven or eight meters. This distance was not far, but it was also too close. Although the battle was about to break out, their states were completely different.

Feeling the trainer's anger, Jolteon obviously became extremely serious. It lowered its body, ready to strike, as if as long as the order was given, it would electrocute its opponent into ashes!

Compared to it, Gengar's playful look is undoubtedly much more nonchalant.

This also made Denci snort in his heart.

What kind of trainer you have, what kind of Pokémon you get!

The man was talking nonsense, but his Pokémon was so non-serious. From this attitude, we can see how unprofessional this pair is!

I thought it was ridiculous that I treated him so seriously.

However, even though he thought so, Denci did not relax, but glanced at Ami.

Ami also understood what he meant, knowing that he wanted her to give the order to start, so she couldn't help but sigh softly, then walked over and raised her arm.
