Pokémon: From Magikarp

"Fuck, this is such a bummer..."

Looking at the advertisements on the screen, the people around were a little speechless. How could there be advertisements during a live broadcast?

"Is it okay for hours?" Ren Yuyao looked up at the screen.

"Don't worry. I've never let you down when I was a child." Mother Lin patted her sister's hand, her words full of confidence in her son.

……

The raging waves began to gradually subside. Now the natural barrier had become a thoroughfare. Lin Shi and the other two were advancing on the last calm sea with a gap of almost a millimeter.

"Young man, I think you should practice for a few more years. I will definitely be the champion this year! Spear-pointed shuttle, move at high speed!"

Uncle Wang was obviously well prepared. After shouting at the two people, waves of super-energy power emerged from the body of the Huo Dou Jian Shuttle. His figure flashed, and he instantly distanced himself from Lin Shi and the other two, swimming towards the finish line almost leaving an afterimage.

"Uncle, you are talking so big, aren't you afraid of hurting your waist? It's not that easy to beat me."

"Dark-tailed fish, water jet!"

Chen Xingmeng smiled arrogantly and retorted mercilessly. The dark fish was quickly wrapped by the water current and shuttled through the sea like a deep-water torpedo. It even jumped out of the water several times and flew on the water surface. Its speed was no slower than Uncle Wang's.

"What a fierce speed competition. It seems that today's champion will be born from these two favorites. Who will win the championship? Our uncle the Straw Hat King or Miss Chen? Let's..."

The host suddenly paused at this point, and his words suddenly became intense.

"Look, our dark horse, Lin Shi, has caught up with us. What's up with that Gyarados? I feel like it's glowing!"

"Gyarados, now that we're here, let's get serious." Lin Shi commanded Gyarados.

"Ouch." Gyarados roared to the sky.

Under Lin Shi's command, a strong sense of self-confidence emerged in Gyarados' heart, and this self-confidence turned into strength that continuously nourished its body.

At the same time, its body kept dancing in the ocean, and it used the Dragon Dance again, further increasing its speed.

Lin Shi's Gyarados's emotional power enhancement is not a simple enhancement of physical attack like the characteristic of overconfidence, but an improvement of Gyarados's overall physical strength. This emotional power is transformed into a continuous source of energy in Gyarados' body, strengthening every aspect of it.

Of course, although this is what they said, after many experiments between Lin Shi and Gyarados, they found that the attribute that was most improved by using the emotion of self-confidence was attack, followed by other aspects.

However, if you simply use anger as emotional power, you will get the biggest boost in both attacks. Yes, both special attacks and physical attacks will get a huge boost, but the boost in other aspects will be smaller.

This is reasonable. The increase in confidence comes from the characteristic of overconfidence, while the increase in anger is Gyarados's venting of destruction, which naturally has a greater enhancement in the attack aspect.

Although the power that Gyarados possesses now is still very simple, Lin Shi knows that as Gyarados goes further and further on this path, he will one day become an almighty controller of emotions, transforming all emotions without distinguishing their attributes into his own power.

At that time, he was a well-deserved hexagonal warrior without any shortcomings. When that day came, Lin Shi believed that even if it was a divine beast, Gyarados with all his strength and emotional outburst would definitely be able to compete with it.

"Gyarados, we can definitely win, right?"

Patting Gyarados' dorsal fin, Lin Shi spoke softly, stimulating the emotions in Gyarados' heart.

"Ouch."

There was a golden light in Gyarados' eyes, and the water around them began to rotate around the two people, forming a huge spiral of water surrounding them.

Lose? There is no word like lose in my dictionary!

"hiss……"

Lin Shi took a deep breath, slowly lowered his body, pressed his whole body tightly against Gyarados, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Gyarados, Emotional Explosion-lv1, let's go!"

As soon as Lin Shi finished speaking, Gyarados shot out like a spiral bullet. From Lin Shi's perspective, it was as if the surrounding sea water was ruthlessly separated in front of Gyarados. There was no obstacle in front of him, and the rotating water around made Gyarados faster and faster.

Gyarados seemed to fly in the sea, creating a huge crack in the originally calm water surface.

"Hahaha... the championship is mine again this time."

Uncle Wang smiled triumphantly as he looked at the finish line that was just around the corner. He slowly put his hand on the straw hat he was wearing, took it off with great effort, threw it high into the air, and shouted:

“It’s championship time!”

"Fuck, flying hat kill."

At this moment, a relaxed voice sounded in his ears. Uncle Wang turned his head in disbelief and faced Lin Shi's white teeth. Before he could react, he felt his hand sink, and the straw hat he had thrown out was returned to him by Lin Shi.

"Uncle, please don't throw things around next time, especially the straw hat."

Lin Shi's voice gradually faded away, and Gyarados took Lin Shi forward at a very fast speed. As the waves on the sea continued to sway, they were getting closer and closer to the finish line, and they rushed through the final distance with the force of thunder!

A champion is born!

"It appears, this year's champion appears!"

"After fierce competition, Mr. Lin Shi from Baishan City in Northeast China won the championship as a new dark horse. Let us congratulate him..."

"This hour was great, champions, we are the champions..."

Ren Yuyao cheered and announced loudly, fearing that the people around her couldn't hear her.

"This kid is really capable."

Lin's father and mother were beaming with joy. Their son was becoming more and more successful.

On the other side, when Lin Shi passed the finish line, Uncle Wang also passed with a straw hat in his hand, looking confused. Chen Xingmeng finished third. She looked unhappy. She had wanted to challenge for the first place this year, but she didn't expect to drop one place...

"call……"

Chen Xingmeng exhaled, let her hair down, and shook it gently, and several water droplets flew out of the wet hair.

"Congratulations, Lin Shi."

Walking to Lin Shi's side, Chen Xingmeng stretched out her hand and said to Lin Shi with a smile.

Lin Shi also smiled slightly and gently shook hands with Chen Xingmeng.

"Accepted."

Lin Shi said modestly, then gently let go of his hand and tried to pull it back, but found that Chen Xingmeng was holding it tightly. Lin Shi frowned and looked at Chen Xingmeng, wondering what she was up to.

Chen Xingmeng held Lin Shi's hand, blinked, then slowly leaned down to Lin Shi's ear and whispered:

"A date?"

Lin Shi:?!

Hearing this, Lin Shi was startled. He quickly withdrew his hands, hugged his chest, and looked at Chen Xingmeng vigilantly.

"Don't be like this, I'm not a serious person..."
