122 Chapter 121 - Indigo League; Energy Booster
[Ladies and Gentlemen, we have reached the peak point of this round. The battle between Lisa and Lilith continued building tension for our Participant Ash Ketchum.]
[Let me tell refresh everyone's memories if anyone forgot that First and second place on the scoreboard has been captured by Cynthia and Paul with perfect 16 points. Both of them are from the Sinnoh region. This makes the chances of Sinnoh Region winning the Indigo League championship higher.]
.
[Standing in the third position is Kagami Itsuki from Kalos Region. He is the golden shining star of Kalos. This year many fans from the Kalos region are putting their hopes on Itsuki. Only one point from getting a perfect score, Itsuki currently has 15 points.]
[Cynthia, Paul, and Itsuki's place in the semi-finals is confirmed.]
.
[Holding the back 4th position with 11.5 points is our Kanto's shining star. Our last hope is Ash Ketchum. Currently, Ash is in a difficult situation. If participant Lilith manages to win this match with 4 points then she and Ash would end up having the same points which would make things very complicated for Ash. If participant Lisa manages to win the match with 5 points then she would surpass Ash and enter the Semi-finals.]
.
"Ash calm down." Misty put her hand on Ash's right shoulder and tried her best to calm him down.
"I shouldn't have used Pikachu in my fight against that bastard Finn. If only I had used Charizard then I could take won the match with perfect 10 points and my position in the semi-finals would have been confirmed." Ash was regretting his decision. Who would have thought the arrogant decision that Ash made would backfire on him.
.
Scene change...
In a quiet room, an old man was wearing a black suit sitting on the couch and watching a match on the TV.
Next to the man, a beautiful woman was sitting wearing a sexy dark red one-piece cloth that highlighted her curves. The current appearance of the woman could make any man go crazy in lust.
.
Sitting opposite the couple, Gary Oak couldn't help gulp seeing such a woman sitting next to his grandpa. Gary knew that Oak must have some sort of dirty relationship with this woman so the little bit of respect that he made for this woman also vanished.
.
Gary forced himself to stop looking at the woman. He turned to his grandpa. Gary's mother doesn't have any idea what kind of man Oak is. But Gary does. Gary knows that Oak is the kind of man who wears the mask of a good man in front of everyone. But in reality, he is the devil in human disguise.
"Grandpa?" In front of Oak Gary didn't have the strength and courage to speak after losing the match even though Gary was given a mid-5th order Pokémon.
.
Thinking of his defeat, Gary clenched his fists very tightly and bite his lips so hard that his lips had started to bleed.
Gary lost to Itsuki even after cheating. Gary lost to Itsuki even though he had a mid-5th order Pokémon. Just remembering the battle itself made Gary's blood boil in anger.
Sitting in front of Oak, Gary now was feeling ashamed because of his failure.
.
Sigh!
"You lost Gary. I guess I shouldn't have given you the Incineroar." Hearing those words Gary felt humiliated, embarrassed, ashamed, and angry. Gary controlled himself from getting angry at Oak. Because Gary knew getting angry at Oak would only make things difficult for him.
Gary didn't look at Oak instead he lowered his head and looked at the floor. "There is no need to feel sad. What is done is done. Now you have to think of a way to surpass Itsuki and defeat him in the next League. It's time to think about your future."
.
Gary looked at Oak knowing that his Grandpa must have some kind of plan for him." Grandpa, please tell me what to do?" Oak smiled seeing that Gary was smart enough to understand Oak's word's meaning. Oak once again felt that Gary is the perfect candidate to become the next Champion of Kanto.
.
"Some people in the Association are doubting you. If they were to go a background search then they would know the truth about Incineroar. So I planning on sending you to the Alola region." Gary looked at Oak in surprise.
"Stay there with my cousin for 3 months and get ready."
"Ready for what?" Gary asked back.
.
Oak smiled and replied. "I heard Orange island League will also start in 3 months. Even though the Orange league cannot even come close to big Leagues like Kanto or Johto Leagues, I think you win the Orange League will be good. This will make the public impression on you more favorable and make you more favorite among Kanto's people." Gary's eyes shined thinking of the recognition that he always wished to get.
.
"Grandpa when I do leave?" Gary felt very excited. If possible he wanted to leave today itself.
"I have booked a first-class ticket and prepared a place for you to stay on the Alola island. Be sure to train hard and also caught some Alola Pokémon." Gary took the ticket from Oak. Gary finally had found his path. After winning the Orange League he was going to challenge Itsuki in the next big League.
.
"Thank you, Grandpa. I will be taking my leave then." Under the gaze of Oak and his secretary Eva, Gary exited the room and left.
.
As soon as Gary exited the room, he saw a familiar figure standing before him. Gary fazes then shifted on the girl who was standing with Ash for a moment and then he looked at Gary.
"Isn't it Gary, the loser who couldn't even go to the semi-finals even after using a mid-5th order Pokémon?" Gary surpassed his anger because getting angry at Ash was not worth his time.
.
"Ash before worrying about others. You should worry about yourself. You're not even sure if you will get your place in the semi-finals. Your condition is even worse than mine. I got eliminated after losing but you would be the first one to get eliminated even after winning." Each of Gary's words hit Ash on his sore spot.
.
"You're the one to talk big when you lost in a humiliating fashion against your rival Itsuki." Gary glared at Misty which caused her to shut her mouth.
"Ash I don't know from where you found this wore but if she doesn't shut her mouth I kill her right now." Ash's eyes also turned cold. Ash was not afraid of fighting Gary either.
"Really. Try it I dare you."
.
Gary looked at Ash and Misty.
Hmph!
"Bunch of losers." Gary didn't continue with the arguments as he knew it would be useless to argue with Ash and that wore Misty.
As Gary walked down the stairs, he tightly clenched his fists. "All this is happening because I lost to you. Itsuki if I don't tarnish your name and humiliated you in the next League, then I will change my name forever."
.
Ash and Misty ignored Gary and knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Misty followed Ash as both entered the room. The first thing their eyes met after entering the room was the beautiful woman. Fortunately, Ash knew he would get in trouble if he stared too much at the woman.
"Sit"
Ash and Misty sat opposite Oak and Eva.
.
"What is it?" Oak asked while looking at the TV.
Ash took a deep breath and said. "Grandpa, do you think you can help me with my points. My place in the semi-finals is not guaranteed. So please help me with his." Oak looked at Ash for a moment and then sighed. No more what, at the end of the day, this boy had his blood and was his grandson.
.
"Don't worry. Judging from how this battle is going, I don't think any of those girls could get enough points to surpass you."
"But what if....." Ash still doubted his Grandpa's words.
"If that happens, then I will just use my connections to personally address this issue. I promise you that you will be in the semi-finals." Ash and Misty both were relieved after hearing Oak's words.
.
"But Professor I think Ash will have a hard time in the semi-finals. Do you think you have something to help Ash with it?" Misty was hoping to get something that would increase the chances of Ash winning in the semi-finals.
Oak took out a red mini bottle made of glass.
"What is this?" Ash curiously asked Oak.
"This is an energy booster. If any of your Pokémon drinks this, then that Pokémon power will increase by 5 levels."
.
Misty and Oak looked at each other with big smiles. This bottle confirms their victory in the semi-finals. Ash might even win the finals.
"By feeding Charizard this serum, I would be Invincible in the League and easily win it." Eva also couldn't believe Oak would give something so unfair to Ash.
"Hold your horses. This serum won't work on mid-5th order Pokémon. The Pokemon level must be below level 45 for it to work."
.
"Also remember that these serum effects are temporary. Meaning after one battle, your Pokémon will lose the temporary power." Ash grinned while taking the serum. He was already making a plan to defeat the top 3 and become the champion.
