Chapter 570 Thousand Needle Fish, you're almost dead, yet you still won't give up! The truth is actually...
"A glimmer of hope?"
Ah Yu gripped the steering wheel of the assault boat tightly, her voice trembling slightly with tension.
"Host, please tell us!"
Ye Yinchuan's gaze was fixed on the enormous stinging jellyfish on the screen.
Each time its tentacles swung.
Every twist of the body.
The trajectory of each attack.
He took it all in.
"From my observation—"
Ye Yinchuan's voice was calm yet powerful.
"Its real target is not the Thousand Needle Fish, but the Black Soul Grass."
"Besides, it didn't actually intend to kill the needlefish!"
This statement came out.
Ah Yu was suddenly stunned.
Holy crap! It really is!
[I knew it! How could someone so big miss a tiny jellyfish?]
So it's not trying to eat the needlefish, but rather to steal the grass?
【That makes things easier! Just make the Thousand Needle Fish spit out the grass, right?】
The viewers in the live chat also realized what was happening.
But Ye Yinchuan shook his head.
"It's not that simple."
His expression turned serious.
"This Black Soul Grass can attract competition among the Thousand Needle Fish and also draw in this Venomous Jellyfish; its allure is extraordinary—it'll be difficult for the Thousand Needle Fish to give it up!"
Ah Yu swallowed.
"What should I do then?"
Ye Yinchuan took a deep breath.
You now have two choices.
"First, leave this area immediately to save your own life and the lives of your Pokémon."
"second----"
His eyes sharpened.
"Let's take a gamble."
"I bet that the jadeite needlefish will make the right choice in the face of life and death."
"If it is willing to give up the Black Soul Grass in exchange for a chance to live, then you may be able to gain its approval while saving it."
"At that time, subjugation will be a natural outcome."
These words sparked another round of comments on the screen.
This is gambling on the intelligence of the needlefish!
What if it's stubborn and just won't open its mouth?
[Then let's all perish together!]
The key issue is that they're wild Pokémon, which are difficult to communicate with!
A struggle appeared on Ah Yu's face.
He watched the jade needle fish desperately trying to avoid it.
He then looked at the Swamp Monster and the Giant Swallow beside him.
finally.
He gritted his teeth.
"I choose the second one!"
"good!"
Ye Yinchuan couldn't help but smile; this was the spirit of adventure.
"Then let's do our best!"
"Let the Swampert use 'Muddy Current' not to attack the Tentacruel, but to create a mud barrier between the Needlefish and the jellyfish!"
"Buy some time so you can get closer to the needlefish!"
"clear!"
Ah Yu immediately issued the order.
"Swamp Monster! Muddy Current! Create cover!"
"roar--!"
The Swamp Monster roared and slammed its arms into the sea again!
boom-!
The turbid water surged into the sky, transforming into a massive wall of mud that stretched between the stinging jellyfish and the green needlefish!
"King Swallow! Use 'Swallow Return' to attract its attention!"
"Chirp!"
The giant swallow let out a sharp cry, transformed into a white lightning bolt, swooped down from the side, and slammed hard into the tentacles of the stinging jellyfish!
Although the damage was limited.
But it successfully attracted hatred.
"Now!"
Ah Yu drove the speedboat at full speed, heading straight for the Thousand Needle Fish!
Five meters!
Three meters!
one meter!
"Thousand-needle fish! Grab my hand! Let go, and you'll live!"
Ah Yu reached out her hand and shouted loudly at the exhausted Thousand Needle Fish whose body was beginning to sink!
The jade needle fish raised its head.
Those violent eyes met Ah Yu's gaze in mid-air.
one second.
two seconds.
it----
I hesitated.
It seems they understood.
Hurry up! Don't just stand there!
【What time is it? Still hesitating?】
[Thousand-Needle Fish: I don't study, don't lie to me!]
however.
Just when everyone thought that the Emerald Needle Fish would loosen its grip and give up on the Black Soul Grass,
it.
They made a move that caught everyone off guard.
It doesn't loosen up!
Instead of loosening its grip, it bit the "Black Soul Grass" even tighter!
At this moment, a hint of almost obsessive—decisiveness—flashed in those eyes that were filled with violence and ferocity!
【Seriously? You're not even going to post this?】
[You're about to die, and you still want grass? Don't you value your life?]
[Greed knows no bounds; like a snake trying to swallow an elephant, now he's doomed!]
[Ayu, run! Don't worry about it! This Pokémon isn't worth saving!]
Watching the emerald needle fish drift away from Ah Yu —
The live stream chat exploded instantly.
No one could understand why this needlefish was so stubborn.
"You bastard!"
The person in charge, Ah Yu, also let out a desperate roar.
"You're about to die! Aren't you going to give up?!"
The giant stinging jellyfish has clearly run out of patience.
Its attacks became increasingly fierce and violent, while the Jade Needle Fish's attempts to evade became increasingly sluggish.
[It's hopeless!]
[He's courting death; there's no solution!]
Just when the comments section was filled with pessimism and Ah Yu was about to give up—
Ye Yinchuan's gaze seemed to pierce through the screen, through the ferocious exterior of the Thousand Needle Fish, and see—something deeper.
Listen to your heart!
For an instant.
A surge of anxiety, worry, and—a will to protect—entered his mind.
Ye Yinchuan's expression changed from doubt to—being moved.
"etc----"
His voice rang out clearly in the noisy live broadcast room.
"It's not for itself—"
"Ayu!"
Ye Yinchuan's voice became more serious than ever before.
"It has companions!"
"On the nearby seabed, there is a companion who is critically injured and on the verge of death!"
"Dark Soul Grass is not only a treasure for boosting the power of Poison-type Pokémon, but also—a holy medicine for healing!"
"The reason it refused to give up even in the face of death—"
"Because, without this plant, its companion—would die!"
【No, Thousand Needle Fish called you?】
[666, you'll just say whatever you dream about, right?]
[Guys, don't forget, the streamer seems to be able to sense what Pokémon are thinking!]
As Ye Yinchuan explained, the public opinion in the comments section began to reverse.
So, it turns out it wasn't greed, but rather a compelling reason to do it?
[Hey! Everyone who just insulted the needlefish, apologize to me!]
An emotional reversal can happen in an instant.
The person in charge, Ah Yu, was completely stunned.
He watched as the Thousand Needle Fish, desperately dodging the giant tentacles, still tenaciously protected the Black Soul Grass.
An image involuntarily surfaced in his mind.
Many years ago, when his Swampert was still a weak Mudkip, it risked its life to protect him from being attacked by wild Pokémon, sparing no effort to defend him.
"Host————"
Ah Yu's voice gradually became firmer.
"So what it refused to give up wasn't the Black Soul Grass, but its companion—then I don't want to give it up either!"
Bro! Don't be impulsive!
Run! You'll die!
Be rational! You can't beat that thing!
The comments section was filled with attempts to dissuade them.
But Ah Yu had already made up her mind!
"Host, thank you for telling me the truth."
"Swallow! Giant Swallow!"
His voice was filled with determination.
"Let's go! Draw that stinging jellyfish away!"
"Come on, you big guy!"
Ayu, piloting the assault boat, actually went to meet the behemoth head-on, frantically maneuvering in front of it to attract its aggro.
"Your opponent is me!"
"roar!"
Swampert roared and slammed its massive arm hammer down on the tentacles of the Tentacruel!
"Chirp!"
The Great Swallow used [Swallow Return] repeatedly, transforming into streaks of white lightning that darted around the jellyfish at high speed, constantly harassing it!
Provoked repeatedly by ants, the giant stinging jellyfish was finally enraged!
It abandoned its pursuit of the Thousand Needle Fish, and countless enormous tentacles, like a net from heaven and earth, enveloped Ayu's assault boat!
boom!
A tentacle grazed the ship's side, and instantly corroded a large hole in the sturdy alloy hull!
Whoosh—!
Another enormous tentacle, carrying the stench of the sea breeze, slammed down!
"Swamp Monster! Protect!"
Ah Yu roared at the top of her lungs!
"roar!"
The Swampert, already exhausted, stood firmly in front of the assault boat!
Bang-!!!
The immense force sent the Swamp Monster and the speedboat flying several meters!
Ah Yu clung tightly to the steering wheel, which prevented him from being thrown into the sea!
That's too reckless! Run!
This jellyfish was determined to kill him!
Is it worth it for a thousand-needle fish you don't even recognize?
The live stream chat was filled with worry and confusion.
But Ah Yu had no way out!
"Royal Swallow! Charge toward its eyes!"
"Chirp!"
A resolute glint flashed in the eyes of the Great King Yan as he transformed into a final white lightning bolt!
It used its hardest beak to fiercely peck at the stinging jellyfish's huge, ruby-red "eye"!
"Buzz!!!"
The giant stinging jellyfish let out an angry roar!
In its pain, countless tentacles danced wildly in the air!
"Now!"
Ah Yu seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
He pushed the engine of the assault boat to its limit!
The assault boats danced on the edge of a knife, brushing against countless wildly thrashing tentacles, and narrowly escaped the encirclement!
We sped off recklessly, never daring to look back.
Only after that enormous figure completely disappeared below the sea level did Ah Yu collapse into her seat, panting heavily, as if she had lost all her strength.
His Swampert and Giant Swallow also landed beside him, exhausted and covered in wounds.
The hull of the assault boat was riddled with holes, and the engine was making a "crackling" noise; it was on the verge of being scrapped.
The jade-washed needlefish had long since disappeared.
They escaped—they finally escaped—
[My God, it looks like he has a heart condition!]
So what was the point? The ship broke down, the Pokémon was injured, and you almost died, but you ended up with nothing.
Brother, take my advice, don't get so carried away next time.
The comments section felt sorry for him.
Looking at the vast ocean, Ah Yu wore a relieved yet somewhat helpless smile.
"Sigh, what can I do? I'm too soft-hearted."
He scratched his head and said to the camera, somewhat embarrassed.
"We can't just stand by and watch it die."
His words were simple and pure.
The teasing voices in the live stream gradually subsided.
however.
Before everyone could recover from the shock of surviving the ordeal...
Boom! ...
The sea they had just fled from exploded again without warning!
That enormous, despair-inducing giant stinging jellyfish has caught up with us again!
It's faster than before!
Its aura was even more furious than before!
Its countless crimson tentacles danced wildly on the sea surface like a horde of demons!
The target is Ah Yu's already teetering speedboat!
"not good!"
Ah Yu's face turned deathly pale in an instant!
He and his Pokémon have reached their limits!
This time, there's no chance of escape!
[Holy crap! It's back again?!]
[Oh no! This is really Barbie Q!]
[Host! Think of something quick! Call Rayquaza and ask him to come rescue them!]
Desperate situation!
A truly desperate situation!
It looked as the vast, tentacled net was about to completely engulf the assault boat!
At this critical moment!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!
A series of rapid, rain-like whooshing sounds came from the side!
Hundreds and thousands of poisonous needles, gleaming with a cold, eerie purple light, formed an impenetrable barrage of death, striking the tentacles of the stinging jellyfish with devastating force!
"Buzz—?!"
The giant stinging jellyfish's attack suddenly froze!
Puzzled, it turned towards the direction from which the attack came.
next second.
Both Ayu and the tens of millions of viewers in the live stream witnessed a scene they would never forget.
All I saw was...
On that azure sea.
A deep, dark figure, like a king, charged at the forefront!
It was that very fish that had just escaped—the Emerald Needle Fish!
And behind it.
They were densely packed, hundreds and thousands!
It's the entire population of common needlefish!
They were no longer scattered guerrillas, but a well-trained army!
They followed the emerald needle fish, forming a huge, sharp arrowhead formation!
aggressive!
A massive undertaking!
They launched a fearless charge towards that colossal creature!
"hiss!!!"
The jade needle fish, having washed its shell, issued a kingly command!
"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"
The thousand-needle fish army behind them responded with a unified hiss!
next second!
Thousands of needles fired simultaneously!
Countless poisonous needles, mixed with water guns and foam beams, came from all directions like a storm, covering every inch of the giant stinging jellyfish's body!
"Buzz!!!!"
Even a giant stinging jellyfish, as powerful as it is, roared in pain in the face of this endless, saturation attack from the swarm of ants!
Its enormous body was forced to retreat repeatedly!
It wanted to fight back, but no matter where its tentacles reached, it would be met with concentrated fire from several times, or even dozens of times!
finally.
This behemoth, which once dominated a sea area, actually began to retreat under endless harassment and attacks!
It roared in resentment, and its enormous body slowly sank into the deep sea and disappeared.
Crisis resolved!
【————】
What did I just see?
[A thousand-needle fish army? They drove away the sea monster?]
Wait a minute! Weren't these thousand-needle fish enemies just a moment ago? How did they suddenly become allies?
After a brief silence, the chat in the live stream exploded!
This reversal came too fast, it's unbelievable!
Let me share my guess.
Ye Yinchuan's voice, tinged with approval, rang out at the perfect moment.
"In the world of Pokémon, strength is always the most direct way to earn respect."
"This Emerald Needle Fish demonstrated considerable strength during the struggle for the Black Soul Grass—"
"And its fight against the stinging jellyfish, fought for its companions, is worthy of recognition in terms of its character."
Wait a minute, how did the other needlefish know?
Pokémon aren't blind, deaf, or stupid; they definitely have their own ways of communicating!
Ye Yinchuan's explanation made everyone suddenly understand.
It turns out that during that short period of escape, this green needlefish not only saved its companions but also won over the entire group!
The sea was calm and peaceful.
The jade-washed needlefish swam slowly to Ah Yu's speedboat.
It raised its head, and those eyes, once filled with violence and ferocity, now held only peace and gratitude.
It gently rubbed its hollow body against Ah Yu's outstretched, trembling hand.
"It seems this needlefish has accepted you."
Ye Yinchuan reminded him, "What are you standing there for? Get the ball!"
When Ah Yu came to her senses, sure enough, the Needlefish entered the Poké Ball without any resistance.
When it was released again, the Emerald Needle Fish turned around, glanced at the huge herd behind it, and let out a low hiss, as if bidding farewell.
The Thousand Needle Fish that had been saved by the Black Soul Grass also bid farewell to the Emerald Thousand Needle Fish, surrounded by the other Thousand Needle Fish.
Seeing this scene, Ah Yu smiled with a sense of healing, as if everything was worthwhile.
But soon, looking at his completely wrecked assault boat and then at the distant coastline, he gave a bitter smile.
"Now—how are we going to get back?"
however.
He had barely finished speaking.
Splash—
The hundreds of needlefish actually swarmed around it.
Some of them used their bodies to brace against the stern of the assault boat.
Some used their mouths to bite the mooring ropes on the side of the ship.
then.
A "tugboat fleet" composed of needlefish, in a grand procession, pulled Ah Yu's speedboat slowly toward the coastline under the setting sun.
Wow! This scene is amazing!
Sincerity begets sincerity—that's the essence of human-Pokémon cooperation and coexistence!
Am I the only one paying attention to that giant stinging jellyfish? Host, can you give me an explanation?
Seeing this, Ye Yinchuan was quite gratified.
But as a professional streamer, he also has his own work to do.
"Actually, this isn't the first time we've encountered this gigantic Pokémon. Perhaps I should talk to you about Dynamaxing!"
