Chapter no.285 Hardwork Vs Talent

[ POV Change ]
" That was so awesome, you were like this..." Yellow said while doing a punch," Then you were like this."
Yellow tried to kick up but ended up falling if it wasn't for Austin catching her on time.
A bright blush erupted on Yellow's face as she shy said," You were awesome."
Hearing Yellow's compliment, Austin couldn't help but smile.
He would be lying if Yellow's words didn't stroke his ego.
" When are we going back." Lucario said while cleaning his claws while Pikachu tried to touch Lucario's bushy tail.
" Try it rat and see what happens." Lucario said causing Pikachu to gulp before looking at Austin.
Don't give me that look.
Austin conveyed with his eyes as he wasn't the least effected by Pikachu's buddy dog eyes but Yellow was another story.
" Lucario, don't be mean to Pikachu." Yellow said causing Lucario to glance at Yellow before turning to Pikachu.
" You're gonna regret this the rest of your life. Both seconds of it."
Pikachu gulped meanwhile Yellow gasped and glared at Lucario who just ignored her meanwhile Austin just sighed.
While Austin and the others were talking, a silence had enveloped the other side where Trodaire looked at his brothers in sadness.
Each of them were looking the floor in shock and shame.
The moves and techniques that they practiced for years were instantly copied by Austin and with his aura enhanced body, he easily outperformed the students who were left in despair.
They knew they weren't some kind of geniuses but to see someone else do what they had trained for in years. What did all of those blood,sweat and tears meant ?
Nothing !
If someone else could surpass them in such a short period of time.
Was there Hardwork meaningless ?
Such thoughts swirled through the student's heads meanwhile Paulie looked at the Old Master who remained silent.
The Old Master looked at Austin's back while thinking.
' Was this level of talent even possible?'
He thought while remembering that it took Bruno, a month or so to learn his techniques and Bruno was a once in a millennium genius then what did that make Austin who has learned his techniques with just a glance ?
Seeing everyone silence, Trodaire walked up to Paulie and snatched the water bottle before dumping it on his head as he said," I am next."
With those words, Trodaire entered into the ring with eyes of his brother,friend and master on his back.
Austin frowned as he sensed the anger radiating from Trodaire who immediately threw the upper part of his Gi revealing a warrior's physique honed through years of dedication and hardwork.
Trodaire immediately jumped up and summersaulted midair before delivering a devastating drop kick that Austin effortlessly dodged but Trodaire's kick tore through the matt below them causing Austin to blink in disbelief before his eyes glowed red.
Mirror Move !
Trodaire's devastating kick was instantly copied by Austin whose aura enhanced boy was much faster then Trodaire's, Austin landed the kick right onto Trodaire's scapula shattering it on impact yet Trodaire didn't even yell out in pain rather he tried to take Austin's heel into a lock.




At the same time, Austin pushed off Trodaire's broken shoulder and landed on the matt and immediately going towards Trodaire's legs who countered with a downwards slam.
Austin smiled as he performed a perfect heel hook onto Trodaire.



" Give up." Austin calmly ordered as he twisted the heel to show that he wasn't kidding.
Gritting his teeth, Trodaire yelled back," You think I'll give after what you did to my brothers!"
" If it makes you feel any better, I had my reasons to do so." Austin answered back. It wasn't like he could tell them that he was using this dojo to increase his fighting prowess against humans just in case he needs it. Team Rocket isn't going to play fair at all and he didn't have any desire to play fair with them either so he will stack all the cards in his favour until that day.
" You think, I give just because you had reasons !"
" Genuinely, no but if you don't want me to break your leg then tap out." Austin said causing Trodaire's fury to rise even more as he suddenly did a backroll with Austin's entire body weight on his leg.
Trodaire's actions caused Austin to let go as he immediately stood in a Roman wrestling stance.
Trodaire gritted his teeth as Austin performed a triple kick that landed directly onto his body and Austin had hit directly on the liver causing extremely excruciating pain to shoot through Trodaire's body.

Austin immediately followed by a capoeira's compact half moon kick that shattered Trodaire's nose.



Trodaire slammed onto the matt while bleeding from his mouth and nose.
Austin nodded and turned back to walk away before suddenly stopping.
" Are you going to show me your big finisher ?" Austin asked while turning towards Trodaire who spat a mouthful to the side before saying.
" Why don't you come and find out ?"
With a nod, Austin performed a one inch punch towards Trodaire who just smirked as he outstretched his leg out.
Immediately, Trodaire's leg intersected Austin's punch before using it a pivot point to send back all the force right onto Austin's face.






( ~ Thud ~ )
Austin was thrown back onto the matt causing Trodaire to smile. He beat the monster before the smile of Trodaire vanished as Austin stood up with a mere bruise on his cheek.
" What are you ?" Trodaire asked in a scared tone as Austin answered," I don't even know anymore."
Trodaire took a step back as Austin took a step forward before the Old Master chopped Trodaire's neck, knocking him out.
" The fight is done, give us the money and leave !"
Austin calmly answered back to the shouting Old Man," No."
" What ?! We held up our end of the bargain and now you should too !"
" Let me correct you there boomer, I said when everyone of this dojo spars with me and that includes you."
Austin's eyes caused the Old Master to breathe in and out before his removed his Gi revealing a tone body riddled with Scars of War.
" I show you the meaning of respecting your elders, brat !"

[ Omake Paragraph ]
There are a great many pokemon who possess the capacity to heal themselves. There are very few who can also heal others, and of these only Chansey (and its rare evolved form of Blissey) can do so without sacrificing its own health in the process. Sadly, for such a good-natured pokemon, this has made Chansey for much of their history little more than a target. They were once a common pokemon, but became rare from warfare; generals conscripted them into their armies and when they could not guarantee their capture they killed all they could find to deny them to the enemy.
It was these massacres which provided the impetus for the first pokemon centers, started by idealistic trainers who gathered the local Chansey and used them to heal the pokemon of anyone who promised not to use their pokemon to harm others. In time, these became an attraction so enormous they were funded by the state – not for military use, but so people would have an incentive to visit their capitals and be able to hold battles when they got there. And as the centers grew, the already popular sport of pokemon battling exploded in popularity, while an age of (relative) peace spread across the land.
In modern times, others have wished for the powers of Chansey, and often these wishes have come true; some have even turned the art of the wish into a healing science almost as powerful as a Chansey's egg. Modern medicine based on the usage of healing machines has in some ways made Chansey obsolete, but they are expensive to maintain. Indeed, many Chansey still work in the centers, operating the machines or just healing wounds themselves
