After the name was written, the summoning scroll vanished into a puff of white smoke.
Then, images of various Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon appeared in his mind, and once they had all manifested, they transformed into a spinning wheel.
Zhou Cheng's eye twitched. Damn it, I have to draw for it?
My luck has always been terrible!
But the system paid him no mind.
With no other choice, Zhou Cheng could only use his thoughts to tap the start button at the center of the wheel.
The wheel began to spin at high speed, the cursor flickering rapidly between targets.
Then, the wheel began to slow down, finally coming to a stop on an image that satisfied Zhou Cheng!
Tyranitar!
The tyrant of the desert!
Zhou Cheng's lips curled upward. Not bad, one of my favorite Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon.
He slammed his palm onto the ground, causing a summoning formation to appear. A cloud of white smoke rose, and accompanied by a heaven-shaking roar, a massive figure appeared before Zhou Cheng.
Standing over four meters tall, its entire body was covered in hard, armored scales.
It stood on two legs, resembling a dinosaur.
It looked at Zhou Cheng, its eyes filled with confusion.
Why had it been suddenly brought here? Just then, information flooded into its mind.
It was this person before it who had summoned it!
He looks so weak!
ROAR!
Another thunderous sound erupted, causing even the floor of the hotel's top level to tremble.
"Don't be impatient, let's make a bet!"
Zhou Cheng knew it could understand him; Pokémon were magical creatures that possessed human-like intelligence.
Tyranitar stopped, its eyes filled with inquiry.
"I'll stand here and let you attack me. If you can hurt me, I'll set you free!"
"If you can't, you'll become my partner! You can stay in your own world most of the time, and only appear when I summon you!"
Tyranitar watched Zhou Cheng quietly, then nodded, agreeing to his proposal.
"Not here. With your strength, this place will collapse!"
Zhou Cheng walked to the edge of the top floor and pointed at the ground below!
He then used Psychic to lift himself up and slowly descended toward the ground.
Tyranitar's eyes widened. Psychic can be used here too?
Curious, it walked to the edge of the top floor, glanced at the ground, grinned, and jumped straight down.
Given its weight, its falling speed was immense. In the blink of an eye, it overtook Zhou Cheng, slamming into the ground like a meteorite.
BOOM!
The ground collapsed instantly, creating a crater over ten meters wide.
The commotion drew the attention of the Konoha Military Police Force and nearby residents. They arrived nearby, vigilant, but upon seeing the Tyranitar in the crater, they were all stunned into silence.
In the Hokage's office, Kakashi was calmly reporting the day's intelligence to Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"Even your Twin Thunder Shock couldn't scratch him?"
"That's impossible!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes widened, and he even forgot to smoke the pipe in his hand.
Kakashi nodded. As for Zhou Cheng, he was at a loss for words.
A person like that could only be a friend, never an enemy!
Just then, a roar followed by a massive crash echoed out, startling both Kakashi and Hiruzen Sarutobi into standing up instantly.
An enemy attack?
That was impossible. This was the heart of the Hidden Leaf, the area with the strongest defenses; even if there were enemies, they wouldn't choose to launch a surprise attack here.
"Lord Hokage, a monster has fallen from the sky near the Hidden Leaf Hotel!"
"However, it doesn't seem to have any malicious intent!"
Kakashi and the Third Hokage exchanged a look. A monster?
"Let's go take a look!"
The Third Hokage took the lead, with Kakashi and the Anbu following closely behind him.
Danzo and his Root were also drawn to the scene.
Zhou Cheng finally landed on the ground at a leisurely pace, and Tyranitar let out a dissatisfied growl, as if to say he was too slow!
"Good heavens, someone just flew down from the sky!"
"How could a person possibly fly!"
"That monster seems to know that guy!"
"Wait, that person looks so familiar!"
"It's Mr. Zhou Cheng!"
"Is that monster his pet too?"
Zhou Cheng covered his face with one hand. Damn it, I told you to come down, not to land like that!
Now look at this, there are so many people watching!
The members of the Konoha Military Police Force stepped forward a few meters and addressed Zhou Cheng:
"Why are you causing such a huge commotion at night? Did you bring this monster here?"
Zhou Cheng was not angry; this was their duty, after all.
"You all should stay back; its temper isn't very good!"
"Be careful not to get hurt!"
The crowd grew larger and larger, and Zhou Cheng looked embarrassed.
As more and more people recognized Zhou Cheng, they stopped being afraid and became filled with curiosity instead.
It looks like Mr. Zhou Cheng's summoning beast has gone berserk?
How interesting!
Tyranitar didn't care how many people were watching; it only wanted its freedom.
Even if it was only brought out occasionally, that was still unacceptable!
It took a step out of the giant crater, stood on the ground, and roared at the sky, causing a sandstorm to instantly appear all around.
Zhou Cheng's eyes lit up. Sand Stream ability!
The onlookers let out bursts of exclamations. Does this monster possess Earth Style powers?
Blown by the wind and sand, they couldn't keep their eyes open and had to take out cloth strips to wrap their heads like mummies, leaving only one eye exposed.
Who would have thought that one could experience the feeling of being in a desert right here in Konoha!
Rock Slide!
Tyranitar let out a low growl, and a pile of hard rocks appeared out of thin air above Zhou Cheng, crashing down toward him.
Zhou Cheng didn't dodge or evade; he stood quietly, letting the rocks smash against his head.
Those rocks shattered one after another, as if they had landed on something even harder than themselves.
Yet, Zhou Cheng stood there completely unharmed, smiling as he looked at it.
Disbelief appeared in Tyranitar's eyes.
How is this possible!
Zhou Cheng looked up at his head, but no numbers floated up. Could it be that his summoning beast was unable to deal damage?
The people around all wore expressions of "as expected." He is truly worthy of being Mr. Zhou Cheng.
He is just that invincible!
At this moment, two more groups arrived on the scene: the Third Hokage and Danzo with their respective men.
As they walked into the range of the yellow sand, they discovered that this wasn't ordinary sand, but sand imbued with offensive properties.
Although the power wasn't high, it was incredibly annoying.
When they saw Tyranitar, they all wore expressions of shock.
So strong!
The aura alone already surpassed that of an ordinary jonin.
Tyranitar took two steps toward Zhou Cheng, each step causing the ground to tremble.
An energy ball condensed in its mouth, and then it fired a thick pillar of energy.
Zhou Cheng's pupils constricted. Hyper Beam!
Tyranitar is using a finishing move!
The power of this light beam made everyone present change their expressions once again.
This level of power already surpassed that of a jonin!
What on earth is this creature?
BOOM!
Hyper Beam slammed into Zhou Cheng, the violent force overturning everything in his immediate vicinity.
The ground where he stood instantly fractured into a dense web of cracks.
Several roadside trees were easily snapped in two by the scattering shockwaves.
As the dust settled, Zhou Cheng remained standing in place, completely unscathed.
Aside from the massive crater, he was without a single scratch!
Those seeing him for the first time had their expressions shift; such power was truly terrifying!
The way they looked at Tyranitar changed entirely!
Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo exchanged a glance, both seeing the astonishment in the other's eyes.
With strength like this, he had almost no rivals, save for a few rare summoning beasts!
Furthermore, even they would not dare to take that energy attack head-on!
They had been hearing about Zhou Cheng for days, listening to accounts of his power from others, yet they had never fully believed it.
They felt there must have been some unknown reason behind the rumors.
Seeing it with their own eyes today, they were deeply shaken!
An attack that even they dared not block, Zhou Cheng had taken while standing perfectly still, and he was completely unharmed?
How could this be possible!
