Chapter 1228: Dream of the Underclass_3

Baimu vaguely saw the man take out a Pokeball with a somewhat strange appearance, and after some manipulation, he released the Salamence with blue scales and Blood Wings.

But.

There was clearly something wrong with Salamence’s condition. Even at this distance, he was still able to make a rough judgment about the Pokémon’s state.

It had injuries, totaling more than a dozen.

Why let the Pokémon fight before it completely healed without treatment?

Is it unwilling, or unable?

Everything before his eyes was becoming more and more enigmatic.

Soon, Salamence began to battle with Rhydon. To Baimu’s surprise, the man and the bald giant not only didn’t stay away from them, but instead followed the movements of the two Pokémon, striving to always stand behind them.

This is…

Baimu felt somewhat confused, but before he could continue watching, a shout came from the boy behind him.

“Banette! We have to go!”

“Chew-peh…”

“You don’t want to cause trouble for big brother, do you?”

He could sense Banette’s unwillingness, but the boy’s words were persuasive, compelling Banette to turn and follow the boy’s footsteps.

They entered a dim passage, and through a crude shelf, they reached a darker underground cave.

Baimu recognized it as a mine through the structures on both sides.

A mine?

An underground mine, an unknown battle venue…

Was that place just now the bottom-tier arena!?

He suddenly remembered the underground arena in Pyrite Town that had been closed due to unknown circumstances. If this dream was not illusory, it should be the one he saw.

“Lidi! You finally came! How is big brother over there?”

A stranger’s voice brought him back to reality.

Baimu followed Banette’s gaze and saw pairs of bright, entranced eyes. They belonged to humans or Pokémon with indistinct appearances, yet without exception, there seemed to be flames burning in their eyes.

“Big brother has already started fighting. We’re just waiting for our side to move, and he will act as well, to destroy the entire underground in one go!”

Lidi muttered through gritted teeth and then said hopefully, “Freedom is at our fingertips! We’re no longer the dust underground. Big brother said the world outside is ten thousand times more exciting than here!”

“Alright! Blow it up! Blow it up to smithereens!”

“Roar!”

“Damn Underground City, damn everything, go to hell! We were born to be free!”

“Meow!”

“But, but what about those spectators?”

The abrupt words made the mine quiet.

Lidi did not hesitate. He grabbed the person who spoke and said, “You must understand, the spectators who come to see this sort of thing, none of them are good people! They’re all bastards who deserve to die! Big brother also said normal people don’t derive satisfaction from this type of battle!”

This kind of battle… is it similar to the charity tournament?

Baimu, hearing this, couldn’t help but recall that disgusting Shadow Team charity tournament.

And after Lidi’s explanation, the people and Pokémon present were resolute in their decision.

“Let’s do it!”

“Do it!”

They exchanged glances and then made some sort of action.

While Baimu felt puzzled, an earth-shaking, fierce tremor came from all directions, making everything visible to the naked eye become hazy, like the roar of thunder exploding in this narrow space!

Boom—!!

They used bombs!

They used powerful bombs underground!

Cries of alarm echoed continuously, and Baimu had no time to react when he suddenly felt a prickling sensation overhead!

He, or rather Banette, looked up and immediately saw a massive boulder plummeting down!

“Banette—”

Lidi screamed.
