Pokémon: Newborn Ash Ketchum, starting from Hoenn

"Shadow sneak attack!"

Before he finished speaking, the shadow behind Commander Cleave suddenly twisted and deformed, as if something was about to break out of the darkness. Commander Cleave's heart tightened, and a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart. He subconsciously raised his hand to chop at the metal blade that was flashing with sharp light.

This is a ghost-type secret weapon of sneak attack using shadows, and the one who performed this move is naturally Satoshi's Greninja!

Seeing this, Yiping appeared beside them like lightning without any hesitation and flashed past them.

Although Commander Slash's reaction was quick, he still underestimated Greninja's power and was knocked flying in an instant.

"Flying water shuriken!"

Xiaozhi was not polite at all and launched an attack again. The figure of Greninja suddenly appeared in the air like a ghost, and he swung out countless flying water shurikens with both hands, pouring down like a rainstorm.

"Damn it! Use Shadow Claws!" The masked man finally came to his senses and quickly gave orders.

Commander Slash stretched out his sharp claws, gripping the ground as tightly as steel, trying hard to stabilize his body. While swinging his claws, he blocked all the flying water shurikens. Then he condensed the Netherworld Ghost Claws in his hands and shot out like a cannonball.

The power of this move was astonishing. Three deep scratches were left on the rock wall, as if it had been cut by three sharp blades.

Xiaozhi was not to be outdone, he calmly commanded: "Use a sneak attack on the vital points!"

Greninja decisively drew out its evil power, and its figure exploded like lightning, appearing in front of Commander Slash and slashing him on the head.

Commander Slash was also surprised to see Greninja suddenly appear, but he hurriedly raised his Ghost Claw to resist, but was nailed to the spot by Greninja's terrifying power.

"It's time to end it, Flying Water Shuriken!"

Greninja used this force to leap into the air again, and with a shake of his hands, countless flying water shurikens poured down from the sky like raindrops, knocking Commander Slash to the ground and making him lose his combat ability.

The masked uncle was about to turn around and run away upon seeing this, but in the instant several flying water shurikens were pierced in front of him, scaring him so much that he retreated repeatedly.

Xiaozhi clicked his tongue, "I don't know if Ippei caught up, but it would be nice to have a prisoner!"

Because Xiaozhi didn't hold out much hope. After all, if the other party didn't even have this confidence, it would be impossible for them to invade the ninja village and capture old man Hanzo. Then he took off the old man's Kodara mask and said, "Let's go!"

Xiaozhi grabbed his shoulders tightly, then passed through the halo opened by Hoopa and came in front of Serena and the others!

Seeing this magical power, the uncle fell silent instantly. He suddenly felt as if Xiaozhi had been teasing them, because with this kind of power, their plan would never be able to succeed!

----------------

As Xiaozhi expected, Ippei failed to catch up with the group of people and was surrounded during the battle. Fortunately, he got support from Mr. Saizo and was able to return to the village safely.

At this time, the flock of armored birds had retreated like the tide, and it seemed that the group's goal had been achieved. They were here to take away leader Hanzo.

"Is it Hyodayu?" Ichihei and Saizo immediately recognized the uncle captured by Xiaozhi, "As expected of Xiaozhi, you have successfully captured him!"

"As long as I want, no one can escape from my palm!" Xiaozhi smiled confidently, and handed the old man to the ninja of the ninja village. "So, the culprit of the invasion of the ninja village this time is clear, right?"

"That's right! The person who took the leader away was Jingyou!" Mr. Caizang explained, "He used to live with everyone in this village!"

As expected, only the ninjas living here could be so familiar with the terrain of the village!

"I remember him!" Ippei said immediately, "He is an outstanding ninja. I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle next!"

"This Jingyou has always coveted the position of the next leader. He should have inherited the position of Hanzo and become the leader of this village, but his belief made Hanzo unwilling to hand over the position of leader to him no matter what!"

"Practicing with Pokémon, pursuing the diversity of Pokémon, and doing everything we can to benefit the world and all mankind, this is the mission of us ninjas!" Mr. Saizo once again repeated the conversation that Grandpa Hanzo and Jingyou had once had.

This made Xiaozhi nod in agreement!

But Jingyou considered this belief to be weak and incompetent. "We are a group of people with great power. This power can even control the whole world, right? I will become the leader of this village and prove that everything I said is the truth!"

Xiaozhi couldn't help laughing at the dream of dominating the whole world. Even gods wouldn't dare to say such a thing, right?

"I will not easily hand over my position to someone who betrays the ninja's rules. This is the symbol of the leader and the proof of the ninja's honor!"

But now, this firm leader was captured so easily. Because of this, Xiaozhi felt that this was a test from the old man on whether Ippei could become the new leader of the ninja village, so Xiaozhi did not intend to do much.

"Later, Jingyou and his companion, Heidaifu, left the village. They trained their own men and formed a ninja army, and then kidnapped the leader!" Mr. Saizo introduced Jingyou's situation, and then said, "I noticed their strange actions before, and rushed all the way back to the village, wanting to warn the leader in advance, but I didn't expect it was too late!"

"It's not too late. After all, Mr. Hanzo is the leader of the Ninja Village. Jingyou wouldn't dare to do anything to him!" Xiaozhi said his guess. "Jingyou's purpose is not to take Mr. Hanzo away. His purpose is to become the leader of this village!"

"If you use force to become the leader of the ninja village, there will definitely be people who will not accept it!" Xiaozhi said with a smile, "But what if you let Hanzo himself recognize it?"

"So he took the leader away so that he can announce in person at tomorrow's festival that Jingyou will be the next leader. In this way, even if we don't accept it, as ninjas we must obey!" Ippei reacted quickly and immediately thought of what they should do.

"So, we must rescue the leader today!"

As for their location, the answer soon came out, that is, at the top of Dapeng Mountain! So what they have to do next is to advance to Dapeng Mountain and save Mr. Hanzo!
