Hu Bin told Greninja, "Greninja, Multi Shadow Clone! Four will be enough. Use Water Shuriken!"
Greninja nodded and created three clones. The four Greninja each stood at a corner, holding a Water Shuriken, and hurled them into the Lava Plume.
The gentle water completely extinguished the raging Lava Plume.
The Water Shuriken lost none of their power, and all four flew straight toward Magmortar.
Magmortar's eyes widened. Before Magmortar could react, the attacks struck home.
The shuriken sliced across Magmortar's body again and again.
Magmortar fell to the ground, unable to battle.
Greninja quickly returned to a single figure as all the clones disappeared. Sweat streamed down Greninja's head, but the energy spent on that exchange was still manageable. Greninja could keep fighting.
Dian Jun recalled his defeated Magmortar.
He sent out his third Pokémon, Typhlosion!
The flames on Typhlosion's back erupted with tremendous force.
Dian Jun said, "Go, Typhlosion! Use Eruption!"
Leading with Eruption was Dian Jun's signature strategy: opening the fight with an immensely powerful move. With Typhlosion at full strength, the power of this attack was easy to imagine-utterly terrifying!
Soon, the cracked ground of the already battered battlefield was covered in Eruption's flames, which flowed like lava.
The flames scorched the entire battlefield, heating the ground to a blistering temperature.
Even Greninja had to leap into the air. The ground had become too hot to stand on.
Then the towering flames surged toward Greninja.
Their power was nothing short of terrifying!
Greninja's expression changed. Faced with one Eruption after another, Greninja could barely keep countering them.
Hu Bin realized something was wrong, too. If this continued, Greninja would not be able to endure the drain. It was time to go all out.
Hu Bin said, "Greninja, Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu at full power! Everyone, Water Shuriken!"
