Chapter 768 Even without pincers or fists, dare to say no.
As they walked, a muffled sob came from behind the rocks.
Li Shuwen stopped, and so did Cynthia. They exchanged a glance and walked around each other.
A thin boy sat behind a rock, holding a large mantis crab, tears falling one by one onto the crab's shell.
Li Shuwen squatted down. "What's wrong?"
The boy looked up, his eyes blurred with tears. "My name is Nobita... They insist on making me fight..."
"Suneo has the Iron-Armed Shrimp, its claws are huge," Nobita's voice was muffled. "Gian has the Electabuzz, its fists are incredibly hard."
"They insisted on fighting me, and I didn't dare say no. My big claw crab is skinny and small, with no pincers or fists..."
His tears fell again. "I can't win, I simply can't win..."
Li Shuwen was silent for a moment, then reached out and gently placed his hand on Da Xiong's head.
"Nobita, the big-clawed crab doesn't have pincers or fists, but that doesn't mean it can't say no. In fact, it should dare to say no."
Li Shuwen's voice was gentle, yet it possessed a captivating power that inspired unwavering resolve: "Daxiong, I'm here to help you!"
The boy's tears stopped.
He wiped away his tears and finally saw the person in front of him clearly: Master Chief Li Shuwen and Sinnoh Champion Cynthia.
His mouth was so wide open it could fit an egg.
Li Shuwen looked at the large pincer crab in his arms. It was smaller than a regular large pincer crab, and it didn't have the large pincers that are typical of large pincer crabs.
The two pincers were pitifully small; they couldn't even clamp onto anything, let alone deter anything.
But those small eyes were very bright.
He smiled slightly. "I'll guide you, so you and the giant crab can become stronger and defeat Gian and Suneo."
Nobita's eyes lit up, shining even brighter than the lights of the distant arena.
"Really...really?"
Li Shuwen nodded. "Really."
"Let me see the strength of the giant crab first," Li Shuwen said.
Nobita carefully placed the giant crab on the ground.
He said seriously, "Big claw crab, use the water gun."
The giant crab nodded, opened its mouth, and a thin stream of water shot out.
The water jet wasn't thick, but it was very solid. When it hit the reef five meters away, it left a wet mark the size of a coin.
Li Shuwen's eyes lit up slightly, not with power, but with control.
The water column remained perfectly straight, without spreading out from beginning to end.
"Foam beams," Nobita said again.
The giant crab opened its mouth, and a string of bubbles floated out. The bubbles didn't fly around randomly; instead, they formed a line, drifting precisely towards the reef, each one exploding in the same spot.
Li Shuwen nodded. "You have a very good talent for energy control."
Da Xiong pointed and said, "Mud Shooting."
The giant crab's claws glowed with a brown light, and a clump of mud shot out from the tip of its claw, striking the rocks with a thud.
"Frozen Wind".
The giant crab took a deep breath and exhaled a puff of cold white air.
The cold air covered a two-meter radius around the reef, freezing the sand into a layer of white frost.
He turned to look at Nobita. "The giant crab's close-combat skills are indeed lacking. But its energy control ability is outstanding."
"Water gun, foam beam, mud shot, freezing wind—it uses these skills very well."
"That's his talent; he can win with his skills."
Nobita's eyes slowly lit up. "Using skills... I can win?"
"Of course," Li Shuwen said. "Next, we'll hone these skills to be even stronger."
Li Shuwen designed a training program for the giant crab.
Nobita wasn't idle either. Li Shuwen had him stand in the position of the giant crab, while he stood in the position of the opponent, simulating a battle.
"If your opponent uses Electabuzz, how will you attack?"
"How would you deal with it if you used bubble light?"
Nobita has a very accurate fighting instinct, which allows him to hit his enemies precisely.
After training, Da Xiong stood in front of Li Shuwen, holding the giant crab.
His eyes no longer darted away, but were filled with determination.
"Master Shuwen, I want to challenge Gian."
Li Shuwen looked at him. "Are you confident?"
Nobita nodded vigorously. "Yes!"
Li Shuwen smiled.
"Then let's go."
……
Fat Tiger crossed his arms and looked down at the skinny boy.
"Nobita, how dare you come looking for a fight with us today?"
Nobita stood opposite him, holding a giant crab in his arms.
His hands were shaking, and his legs were shaking, but he did not back down.
"Because...because I've become stronger now."
Gian paused for a moment, then burst into laughter. Suneo laughed too, laughing so hard he almost fell over.
"Got stronger? With that giant crab that didn't even have pincers?"
Gian waved his hand, "Electabuzz, let him see what it means to get stronger."
Electabuzz stepped into the center of the arena, clashing its fists together, and a golden bolt of lightning exploded between its knuckles.
Nobita took a deep breath and placed the giant crab on the ground.
The giant crab stood on the sand, holding up its small pincers, looking at the Electabuzz opposite it, which was several times larger than itself.
His legs were shaking, but he did not back down.
She looked up and glanced at Nobita.
Nobita clenched his fist. "Big Crab, today, let's show Gian what we're made of!"
The giant crab nodded, and its pincers glowed with a brown light.
"Electabuzz, Thunderbolt!" Gian waved his hand.
Electabuzz's fists crackled with golden electricity as a thick bolt of lightning lashed out at Krabby.
"Bubble Ray!" Nobita's voice trembled, but the command was very clear.
The giant crab opened its mouth, and a series of bubbles floated out, precisely heading towards the electric current.
One bubble after another burst open, igniting layers of 100,000 volts of electricity.
Fat Tiger's smile froze.
Xiaofu stood up, his eyes wide open.
"Water gun!" Nobita's voice became more steady.
The giant crab opened its mouth, and a solid jet of water shot out at an astonishing speed, heading straight for Electabuzz's face.
The Electabuzz dodged to the side, the jet of water grazing its ear before striking the wooden stake behind it.
With a snap, a hole the size of a thumb was driven into the stake.
Fat Tiger's expression changed.
"Electabuzz, Thunder Punch!" Gian's voice became impatient.
Electabuzz charged at Krabby with golden electricity crackling in its right fist.
"Mud Shoot!" Nobita's command was faster than Gian's.
The giant crab's pincers glowed with a brown light, and a clump of mud, like a cannonball, landed precisely on the Electabuzz's fist.
The lightning fist was interrupted by the mud, and the current surged wildly through the mud, exploding into a clump of mud.
Electabuzz was covered in mud, staggered, and almost fell over.
"Frozen Wind!" Nobita's voice was now completely steady.
The giant crab took a deep breath and exhaled a puff of cold white air.
It blew precisely onto Electabuzz's feet.
The electric beast's feet were frozen, stuck firmly to the ground, and it could not move.
Gian panicked. "Electabuzz, break free! Smash the ice with Thunder Punch!"
Electabuzz's fists crackled with electricity as it slammed them into the ice beneath its feet.
"The final blow, mud shot." Da Xiong's voice calmed down, just like Li Shuwen's.
The giant crab's pincers glowed with a brown light, and a clump of mud shot out, hitting Electabuzz squarely in the chest.
boom!
The electric beast was blasted away by the mud, crashed to the ground, slid several meters, covered in mud, and could no longer stand up.
The backyard was quiet.
Fat Tiger's mouth was open, Suneo's mouth was open, and several children watching also had their mouths open.
The electric beast lay in the mud, its eyes closed.
The giant crab stood in the center of the arena, holding up its small pincers and panting heavily.
Nobita stood there, looking down at his hands.
The hands were still trembling, but this time it wasn't from fear, it was from excitement.
He looked up at Fat Tiger.
Fat Tiger's face turned pale and then red, his lips moved, but in the end he didn't say anything.
He turned around, walked over to Electabuzz, put it back into its Poké Ball, and walked away without looking back.
Xiao Fu followed behind him sheepishly.
Several children who had been watching rushed up and surrounded Da Xiong.
"Nobita, when did you become so amazing?"
"That giant claw crab is too strong!"
"Could you teach me?"
Nobita was surrounded, his face flushed, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
Da Xiong squeezed through the crowd and ran to Li Shuwen.
He stopped and bowed deeply.
"Thank you, Master of Literature."
Li Shuwen reached out and placed his hand on his head. "You did it yourself. Remember, even without pincers or fists, dare to say no!"
Nobita looked up, his eyes reddening again, but this time he wasn't crying.
He nodded vigorously.
"I've got it, and I'll keep working hard. I'll grow stronger together with the King Crab, and dare to say no."
