"Roar~ Roar~"
Although the group was severely injured, Gyarados are vicious pokémon after all; injuries and pain only stimulate their ferocity.
So after the Thunder ended, this group of wild Gyarados rushed up again, each opening their bloody maws, wishing they could tear Adrian's Gyarados to pieces.
At this, Adrian's Gyarados sneered in its heart.
Because it had just defeated several Gyarados, with the boost from the "Ability" Ability, its physical attack level was still climbing.
Fortunately, as the Gyarados's strength continuously improved and it had consumed several "ability candy" along the way, the current Gyarados could already control the activation and deactivation of its Ability at will, just like Pikachu.
To prevent its body from being unable to handle it, after its physical attack stat rose by another two levels, the Gyarados didn't dare to activate its Ability anymore.
Looking at the wild brothers constantly surrounding and attacking, the Gyarados looked at them like a group of clowns.
"Roar~"
With a roar, Adrian's Gyarados didn't go easy on these wild brothers either, immediately using the "Stone Edge" move, condensing several huge sharp rock pillars and blasting them out.
Boom boom boom!
Before long, several wild Gyarados collapsed under the bombardment of the rock projectiles.
Because the wild Gyarados crowded around, the density was too high.
Even if the Gyarados attacked with its eyes closed, it would always hit a few unlucky ones.
At this time, the number of wild Gyarados still able to fight had dropped to single digits.
They originally wanted to trap a turtle in a jar, but they didn't expect that with the boosts from Dragon Dance, Sea Kings Authority, and the Ability Ability, Adrian's Gyarados was like an evil dragon of the sea slaughtering its way into a swarm of sea snakes.
This was a completely unequal battle!
Boom!
With a single Waterfall, the Gyarados directly knocked down an unlucky wild brother; the wild Gyarados, who originally had decent physical strength, immediately fainted.
Then, the Gyarados used another Crunch, defeating the nearest wild Gyarados.
"Roar~"
The other wild Gyarados took the opportunity to swarm up.
If Adrian's Gyarados were suppressed even once, it would be in danger.
"Roar~"
Adrian's Gyarados's thick tail swept out, directly sending several wild Gyarados flying.
In terms of physique, this group of wild Gyarados was already an order of magnitude behind Adrian's Gyarados.
Now with Sea Kings Authority increasing all of Gyarados's stats by fifty percent, plus Dragon Dance strengthening attack and speed, and the two-level reinforcement from Ability.
It's no exaggeration to say that although they are called "Gyarados", in reality, Adrian's Gyarados and the wild Gyarados were no longer the same species at this time.
Their Ability levels were too far apart!
The battle continued, with huge waves constantly surging on the sea surface and roars echoing through the sky.
But the more they fought, the more alarmed the wild Gyarados became.
This was a complete one-sided slaughter!
Is this freaking Gyarados?
This is a monster!
It was just like an adult hitting children, taking them out one by one like kids.
Can't win!
Simply can't win!
Before long, almost all the wild Gyarados had lost their fighting Ability.
On the contrary, those few wild Gyarados who were originally in a state of Paralysis were blessed in disguise due to their inability to move, escaping a brutal beating.
The sea rapidash.
In the cockpit, Captain Saji had been observing the battle with binoculars.
When he saw Adrian's Gyarados taking on many opponents alone and defeating the wild Gyarados group like cutting melons and vegetables, Saji's eyes also widened, his face full of disbelief.
"Am I seeing this right?"
Saji rubbed his eyes and looked again with the binoculars.
On the distant sea surface, the wild Gyarados group had been completely scattered; the Gyarados who hadn't lost their fighting Ability yet were now facing the pressure and gaze of Adrian's Gyarados, and they one after another lowered their proud heads, completely submitting.
After confirming he hadn't seen wrong, Saji's mind was filled with a thousand thoughts.
What kind of existence is this young man?
At the same time, Adrian, who was trailing far behind by several hundred meters riding on Dratini's back, saw everything.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly: "This guy Gyarados is really so majestic!"
"Then next, I also need to prepare for fishing on my side."
——
Glancing around, Adrian noticed a reef protruding from the sea not far away and quickly patted Dratini's head, saying: "Go, let's go to the reef."
The battle ended, and the sea surface immediately returned to being calm and tranquil.
Seeing that all the wild brothers had submitted, Adrian's Gyarados also gradually restrained its aura.
After waiting for quite a while, the wild Gyarados who had originally lost their fighting Ability also regained consciousness, though their bodies were still very weak.
"Roar~"
The Gyarados twisted its thick dragon body and stepped forward, its gaze scanning the many wild Gyarados.
I heard you guys are lacking a leader?
Then let me be this leader!
Who's in favor? Who's opposed?
"Awoo~"
Under the gaze of the Gyarados's stern eyes, all the wild Gyarados shook their heads one after another, and many Gyarados were even somewhat joyful.
Originally, the struggle for the leader of the group was a one-on-one fight; whoever was strongest was the leader, and everyone had to give the leader face.
But now, a single dragon had fought through their entire group.
Him being willing to come and be the leader was giving their group face.
Especially for the several female Gyarados in the group, this was an even greater good.
Because the stronger the leader, the higher the talent and potential of the offspring they breed.
So after the leader's status was confirmed, several female Gyarados immediately scrambled to gather around, their eyes practically dripping with desire as they looked at Adrian's Gyarados.
Seeing this, the other male Gyarados hung their heads, their expressions dejected.
The leader has priority mating rights; this is the custom!
"Roar?"
Adrian's Gyarados widened its eyes, a bit at a loss.
From a Magikarp, it had grown step by step until now; the person it spent day and night with was Adrian, making it a properly pure-hearted little virgin dragon.
Where had it ever seen such a scene?
Under the influence of male instinct, the Gyarados's gaze also gradually became blurred.
Seeing this, while the female Gyarados became increasingly shy, they also took the initiative to step forward and vie for favor, constantly rubbing against the Gyarados's strong body, wanting to get the starting position.
But just then, Adrian's past earnest teachings couldn't help but surface in the Gyarados's mind.
"Without Mega, there is no home!"
"Female dragons will only slow down the speed at which you become stronger!"
Instantly, the Gyarados's gaze became clear again.
This group of female dragons just coveted its body and wanted to suck its dragon energy!
However, as the female Gyarados continued to exhale tempting breaths, the Gyarados's body trembled slightly, and Adrian's famous aphorisms also kept becoming blurred in its mind.
In the end, the Gyarados still failed the test and tearfully endured it all.
Gyarados: Sorry, Trainer! They were too enthusiastic!
Mmm~ awesome!!!
