Chapter 359: Chapter 359: Electabuzz’s Will

Professor Rowan pushed down the switch, and a powerful current instantly surged into Electabuzz’s body. The two electrical support devices quickly began operating.

They stabilised the electricity inside him and helped him process it.

The electrical support devices performed very well. Electabuzz handled the electricity around thirty to forty percent more easily than usual.

Professor Rowan nodded.

"This is about the limit of the device’s support effect. Now we’ll test the maximum current Electabuzz can withstand with the help of the electrical support devices."

"Yuzo, increase the current!"

Yuzo immediately operated the computer and doubled the current according to Electabuzz’s performance.

Although there was some pressure, Electabuzz could still endure it.

The electrical support devices did not increase their support effect because of the change in current.

They still helped Electabuzz shoulder roughly thirty percent of the pressure.

In other words, they shared a constant thirty percent of the burden, but their upper limit was fairly high.

After observing for five minutes, Professor Rowan asked, "Julian, what do you think? How much more current do you think Electabuzz can endure?"

Julian clenched his fist.

"I believe in Electabuzz. Double it again!"

Yuzo finished calculating the data.

"This current already exceeds the limit Electabuzz should be able to endure with the electrical support devices. Julian, are you sure?"

Julian nodded.

"This is the decision Electabuzz and I made together!"

Julian knew Electabuzz.

He did not want to lose to Blaziken.

The pain of electricity burning through his body was nothing more than annoyances on the road to becoming stronger.

Yuzo began adjusting the machine.

"Since you say so, I’ll increase the current."

As the electric light grew increasingly dazzling, Electabuzz could not help letting out a pained roar.

Julian raised his hand and encouraged him.

"Electabuzz, hold on!"

Every second the current passed through his body would make him stronger.

Electabuzz gradually endured the triple current.

Instead, the electrical support devices suddenly spat out sparks.

Professor Rowan immediately lifted the switch, but the electrical support devices continued sparking, then released an unpleasant burnt smell.

Professor Rowan stepped forward and safely removed the devices from Electabuzz’s arms.

Julian helped Electabuzz sit down, took out medicine, and sprayed it across Electabuzz’s whole body. Then he took out a high-energy supplement and let Electabuzz drink the entire bottle directly.

Electabuzz’s eyes were brighter than ever before.

It might have hurt a little just now, but when Electabuzz thought back on it, he only felt as if every muscle in his body was shouting.

He wanted to do it again!

That feeling was incredibly satisfying.

It was like lifting the maximum weight you could handle while working out, that painful sensation of the muscles tearing.

Although it hurt, it felt great!

Professor Rowan disassembled the electrical support device and examined the cause of the damage.

"A problem caused by prolonged operation. If we hadn’t tested it, it really would have been difficult to expose. It won’t be difficult to optimise."

"Based on this experiment, I should be able to design the second-generation electrical support device within ten days."

Professor Rowan took out another electrical support device.

"Julian, do you want to continue?"

Julian looked at Electabuzz.

Electabuzz nodded hard, his eyes filled with firm will.

"Electabuzz!"

Professor Rowan put the device on Electabuzz.

"Yuzo, this time, simulate natural lightning and deliver current to Electabuzz in bursts."

Yuzo nodded.

"Yes, Professor!"

Professor Rowan pushed down the switch, but no current appeared.

Yuzo operated the machine.

"Triple current. First burst!"

A golden current instantly surged into Electabuzz’s body, making him roar.

The current came quickly and left quickly.

Lightning flickered across the antennae on Electabuzz’s head, then soon calmed down.

Electabuzz nodded, and Yuzo operated the machine again.

"Triple current. Second burst!"

This time, Electabuzz gritted his teeth and only let out a muffled grunt.

The electricity on his antennae calmed down seven or eight seconds faster.

Electabuzz looked at Yuzo.

Yuzo pressed the switch.

"Triple current. Third burst!"

By the third burst, Electabuzz could already digest and absorb it with a normal expression.

Fourth time.

Fifth time.

A smile even appeared at the corner of Electabuzz’s mouth.

"Electabuzz!"

Electabuzz wanted Yuzo to raise the current to four times.

Since it was not continuous delivery, the training effect was not as good.

Julian frowned slightly.

"Yuzo, can you raise it to three and a half times?"

Yuzo looked at Julian.

"Julian, that could cause damage to Electabuzz’s body. Don’t underestimate the damage from the current just because it passes through briefly."

Julian fed Electabuzz a mouthful of high-energy supplement.

"I believe in Electabuzz. This is his will. He can endure it!"

Compared to the four times Electabuzz had requested, Julian had already restrained himself.

Yuzo looked at Professor Rowan.

Professor Rowan silently nodded.

"Trust in the power of Pokémon!"

Yuzo adjusted the parameters.

"Three and a half times current. First burst!"

Electabuzz let out a pained roar, but his trembling body still stood firmly in place.

With the intervals lengthened, Electabuzz endured ten bursts of three and a half times current.

Only then did Julian have Yuzo stop. Even though Electabuzz said he could continue, under Julian’s resolute gaze, he eventually gave in.

Professor Rowan took out a brand-new electrical support device.

"Take this back with you. You can use it when receiving natural lightning. Natural lightning is different from a generator."

"According to the design and the experiment just now, this first-generation support device should have absolutely no problem withstanding natural lightning."

Clearly, Professor Rowan had designed this equipment according to Julian’s needs.

Julian smiled.

"I’ll thank you on Electabuzz’s behalf, Professor."

Professor Rowan waved his hand.

"You’ve helped me quite a lot over the past few days too. Based on the current data, in ten days at most, there should be a second Primeape that learns Rage Fist."

Julian asked curiously, "Professor, how long do you think my father’s Primeape will need to master seven layers of Rage Fist?"

Professor Rowan shook his head.

"Primeape is a highly emotional Pokémon. Their growth cannot be completely inferred using data."

"Once a few more Primeape learn Rage Fist, I’ll recommend that your father challenge Victory Road."

"Using the Trainers on Victory Road, Primeape should be able to evolve more smoothly."

Julian nodded in agreement as he thought back.

Annihilape did evolve under the pressure brought by Mewtwo. It seems like this really is the most suitable evolution method for Primeape

"Then I’ll take my leave first. I’ll go back and open the Gym for a few more days, then I’ll have to go watch Cynthia’s Elite Four ranking battles."

Professor Rowan smiled meaningfully.

"Julian, you and Cynthia need to work hard."

Julian froze for a moment.

"I understand."

He already knew Cassia was Cynthia, so how could Professor Rowan possibly not know?

For the next step, Julian was thinking about whether he should confess to Cynthia after she became Champion.

But if he confessed at that time, would Cynthia think he had chosen to confess because of her Champion status?

He still needed to find a more suitable time.

For example, after he became an Elite Four member. Then, their identities would be equal.

But if he waited until he succeeded in becoming Elite Four before confessing to Cynthia...

Would that be too late?

Or he could wait until his dad succeeded in becoming Elite Four.

At that time, he could directly say, "My father is Fighting-type Elite Four Darius Veyne."
