263 Chapter 264

Friday, November 27.

Following the release of "Teacher Luke's Battle Instructions 12: Unburden Team," its popularity skyrocketed to the top of the Bilibili daily list. The surge in popularity and data completely overshadowed the brand new profile of the "Dazzling Beauty" Elesa, Unova's most popular idol-type Gym Leader. Even all the previous MV updates featuring Elesa were outshone by Teacher Luke this time.

Everyone was curious – why did they choose to watch Teacher Luke's video over the other content available? The answer was simple: true love!

"Grandpa, look at this! The main channel that you're following is trending!"

"It's been only 3 minutes since their last update; the production team can't afford to rest like this!"

"Teacher Luke is dominating the team; my dad is hooked!"

In the ongoing battle, Mustard clearly had the upper hand. His Mienshao was swiftly knocked out by Hitmonlee, creating a memorable scene reminiscent of a boxing match.

The non-stop, aggressive gameplay style left the audience breathless.

"This wave, it's like Kansai's Luti Town, the town of punches!"

"Teacher Luke, don't talk about Koichi!"

"Please step up!"

Although Mustard had been silent for a while, few people were aware of his identity. However, for those who understood the strength of Mustard, the back-and-forth battle, punch for punch, was as exciting as a classic boxing match replay.

In the eyes of trainers familiar with Mustard's prowess, Teacher Luke's command skills were already on par with Mustard, who had clinched more than ten consecutive championships in Galar.

"Allowing him to be free is a wise choice."

At Team Rocket HQ, the man in the black suit couldn't help but mutter to himself.

At Interpol, with the conclusion of the teaching material, it took a while for the students to catch their breath. Even in the Explosive Detachment, where Unburden team tactics were explained, only Teacher Luke could simplify it so effortlessly.

Teacher Luke, now promoted to Top Inspector, faced no more criticisms. In the chat group, the discussion shifted back to the essence of 'Teacher Luke's Masters Group.'

After watching the video, Red, excitedly, couldn't help but invite, "Teacher Luke, how about practicing boxing with Bruno next time?"

Bruno, the Fighting Elite from Kanto, was known for his body strengthening techniques and his hand-to-hand Onix operations.

Red, having faced Bruno for a long time, could handle it effortlessly. In the Advanced Martial World of Pokémon, where Psychic and Aura Force were emerging, body tempering was considered an entry-level skill. However, Bruno would find it amusing; to witness a battle, one had to look at Ash from Pallet Town.

"No, I still have work to do."

Teacher Luke, mounted on Arcanine, replied while heading to Celadon Academy to teach. Despite starting a company, Teacher Luke's heart remained connected to the proletariat. This dedication could be seen in his diligent part-time jobs as an anchor, teacher, cook, etc.

Even Gengar working at Saffron Gym didn't deter him. After all, Teacher Luke was not one to lose to Gengar!

"Speaking of part-time jobs…"

Brock squinted his eyes, "Is there a suitable job lately? I will work hard!"

As a Gym Leader, Brock had also worked as a security guard, breeder, chef, etc., at the Pewter City Museum. The real man Brock had a will like steel! In a certain sense, Teacher Luke and Brock were true bosom friends. It seemed to be a sympathy between men, which had even infected the rich second-generation Mr. Steven.

"If you don't mind, Pewter City has suitable ore that can be sold."

Steven, as the vice president of Devon Corporation, offered, "I will pay a good price."

Brock was taken aback. As a Rock Type expert, he also liked to collect stones. However, Mr. Steven had given too much!

"No problem," Brock said cheerfully.

Though handsome, strong, and rich, Steven had not outshone Teacher Luke. Silently clenching his fist, Teacher Luke's eyes were firm. Come on, Teacher Luke! Work hard, and you'll surely overcome poverty!

Interrupted like this, Splash came to life in the group. Gold rubbed his chin. Part-time jobs were impossible; he could only make a living by playing billiards. As for a Breeding House part-time job, wasn't it just helping out?!

While everyone else was jumping in, the reliable senior Blue paid more attention to the combat literacy shown by Teacher Luke in the Unburden team. The critical strike focus of Fighting Type was a key point, and Teacher Luke's fast and accurate play style reminded him of Chuck Master.

Chuck, the Fighting Type Gym Leader of Johto, ran a dojo much like Mustard. Known for his amazing insight, Chuck had trained many Fighting Gym Leaders in the Alliance. In the eyes of Blue, the insight shown by Teacher Luke seemed to have a touch of failure.

A Trainer adept at both robust and upright playstyles.

What is he truly skilled at?

Blue pondered deeply and cast a glance at Chuck Master beside him.

Chuck, shirtless with the physique of a sumo wrestler and the agility of a boxer, caught Blue's attention.

While pushing a heavy barbell, Chuck exhaled, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

"Are you suggesting he's part of the Fighting family too?" Chuck inquired.

"Just a speculation," Blue replied.

Chuck rubbed his chin, contemplating, "Physically speaking, he doesn't seem like a Fighting player... but it's not impossible."

Chuck emphasized the importance of not judging people solely by appearance, drawing from his extensive experience. He recalled a moment when Ash, seemingly weak, easily wrestled with Snorlax, leaving Chuck in awe. Considering Teacher Luke's recent victory over Mustard, a renowned Fighting expert, Chuck became even more serious.

Mustard was an undisputed monster in the realm of Fighting, and defeating him in his own domain showcased Teacher Luke's terrifying skills.

Observing the Master's intense focus, Blue nodded subtly.

It seems my hunch was right.

Teacher Luke indeed excels in a broad spectrum of battles.

"In any case, practical experience is the ultimate test," Chuck declared, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

"If you want to confirm, invite him. The P1 Fighting tournament might not be enough."

"What's that?"

"A Fighting event in Kanto."

Chuck scratched his head.

"The prize money is quite substantial."

"If he's truly a Fighting expert, securing a gold belt should be a breeze."

In the P1 Championship, there might be a chance to witness Teacher Luke's Fighting Pokémon.

After considering for a while, Blue said, "I'll try extending the invitation."

Based on what he knew about Teacher Luke, Blue pondered the possibility.

With a generous prize pool, Teacher Luke shouldn't turn down the opportunity, right?

...

While Blue discussed with Chuck,

Outside the dojo, bathed in sunlight, a well-proportioned, dark-skinned girl silently tied a headband around her forehead.

Hailing from the Galar Region and aspiring to be the world's number one Fighting Grandmaster, Bea had embarked on her cultivation journey, discovering a goal to pursue.

Beyond the apparent violence in Unburden tactics, Bea identified the gaps between herself and Teacher Luke.

The Fighting Type, characterized by both power and elegance, seemed to be Teacher Luke's forte.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Bea's fists collided with her Machamp.

Despite the strong gust of fist wind, she stood her ground without taking a step back.

"Not enough, not enough!" Bea gritted her teeth and exclaimed.

If it were Teacher Luke, this level of challenge could undoubtedly be overcome effortlessly.

Feeling her own inadequacies, Bea resolved to continue her cultivation.
