In the Shinobi World, Ash and Sarada were panting out of tiredness because of how many shurikens the launch towards each other and a lot scatters around the arena.

Sarada: Who knew... you could launch so many shurikens as I am...

Ash: Well I wouldn't expect less... from an Uchiha to be good at shuriken throwing...

Sarada: Don't get to soft on me, because you might miss something.

Sarada suddenly pulled what seems to be a string that suddenly pulled one of the shuriken towards Ash.

Ash: (This sound... shuriken?!)

Sarada: Got you!

Pikachu: Ash! Look out!

Just when the shuriken was about to hit Ash's back, something very hard and solid protect a specific spot from inside his jacket that stopped the shuriken from stabbing him.

Sarada: Huh? (Why doesn't he look hurt?)

Ash: ... *Sigh in relieve* Thank Arceus I still have that with me.

The whole audience was confused before they saw Ash pulled out something from the back of his jacket, it was handling of a katana with only a half of the blade attached on it, it seems like half of the sword was broken.

Mitsuki: Oh? That broken katana must've protected him from the shuriken.

Boruto: Well... this is unexpected.

The five great leaders who are watching this looked amused as well by the outcome.

Kurotsuchi: Haha! Now that's some coverage right there!

Darui: Yeah, is it you who taught that, Naruto?

Naruto: Honestly? I never knew, but I did remember he had sword training. I never knew he would break it.

-

Sarada: Well you are full of surprise, so I wonder if I can add more into the spice.

Sarada then kicks the ground below her to make a big chunk of boulder then she punch it towards Ash.

Sarada: Try taking that!

Ash: Huh? Waaah!!! It's coming!!

Suddenly some lightning power from his jacket wraps around his hand before he then then punch the boulder with the lightning punch that shatters it to pieces.

Ash: Well, that was pretty close.

Sarada: So you're a lightning style user huh? Well I guess we're matched for this battle!

Some sparks of lightning appeared on Sarada's fist before she dash towards Ash to launch the punch towards him.

Sylveon: Watch out, Ash!!

Ash: Oh no!

Ash also wraps his fist with lightning before their attacks starts clashing, but the lightning was too much it blew them away from each other.

Sarada: Akh! Not yet!

Sarada bring out what seems to be the demon wind shuriken, she then wraps it with lightning chakra before throwing it towards Ash.

Ash: Oh no, I got no choice then!

Ash uses the broken katana he has to block the rotating shuriken, he manage to wrap the katana with lightning power before the shuriken got blown off into the sky.

Ash: Oh man, I guess we won't be seeing that shuriken anytime soon.

Sarada: Well very funny Ash, but don't let your guard down this time!

In the Pokemon World, Sasuke switches Chairo's place with Rai while Drohen bring out his Lurantis.

Sasuke: Alright Rai, use Double Team

Rai starts dashing around the battle stage to create a lot of after-images of himself.

Drohen: Oh boy, I have to slow that Jolteon down. Lurantis! Go for Aromatherapy!

Lurantis starts to let out aromatherapy steams all around the arena, the smell was so soothing it manages to slow Rai down.

Rai: Haaah... what a nice smell.

Sasuke: What?! No, Rai!! Snap out of it!!

Drohen: Good work! Now attack using Bug Buzz!

A loud bug screeching came out of Lurantis which hits Rai and made him confused because of the sound.

Drohen: Alright! Now hit him with Petal Blizzard!

Sasuke: Rai! Use Protect!

But Rai wasn't listening as he was just wobble around in confusion, but then he fell flat on the ground just in time for the Petal Blizzard to miss him.

Rai: *Snaps out* Youch!!

Sasuke: *Sighs in relieve* Good, now go for Wild Charge!!

Rai wraps himself with dozens volt of electricity before he ran towards Lurantis to attack.

Drohen: This is bad! Lurantis, use Protect!

Sasuke: Hmph, right where I want to. Now! Use Double-Edge!

The lightning power that wraps Rai suddenly fade away before he strikes through the Protect and hit Lurantis with Double Edge which send the two of them flying and land hard on the ground.

Announcer: Oh! What a hit there!

The two pokemon slowly got up on their feet but it seems like Rai wasn't able to get up because of recoil damage.

Rai: M-My body... I can't move...

Sasuke: Oh no, Rai! Get up!

Drohen: Okay Lurantis! Finish it with Leaf Blade!

Lurantis hits Rai with Leaf Blade and instantly fainting him, Sasuke sighs before he put away Rai back into his pokeball.

Sasuke: Not bad, but I still got more up my sleeve. Your turn, Aoi.

Sasuke bring out Aoi from her pokeball, but Drohen suddenly switch Lurantis with Aegislash

Drohen: If I'm up against a Sylveon, an Aegislash might do the trick.

Sasuke: Don't get too excited just yet. Aoi! Use Mystical Fire!

Drohen: Aegislash! Go for Toxic!

The two attacks was launched at the same time, but since Toxic is a liquid attack it put out the Mystical Fire and hits Aoi, badly poisoning her.

Drohen: Alright! Now use Flash Cannon!

Sasuke: This is not good. Aoi! Use Protect!

Aoi quickly protect herself before the Flash Cannon hits her, but she was struggling due to the poison effect.

Announcer: It looks like Sasuke's pokemon is in a bit of a pickle!

Sasuke: (I have to think of something and fast. I'm up against a steel and ghost type user which is super effective against her and she is poisoned. What should I do?)

In the Shinobi World, Ash was trying to dodge Sarada's punch repeatedly though he is almost out of stamina because of it.

Ash: *Pants* Dang it... This is getting tiring by the second!

Sarada: Then stop dodging and fight back already.

Ash: (I have to buy some time before my tactic goes as plan)

Ash brings out another kunai to protect himself, but again he got blown away and the kunai shatters.

Sarada: Aha! You're wide open!

Sarada hops into their air before launching an air kick towards Ash, but he suddenly disappeared and made her kicks the ground again.

Sarada: What? Where did he go?

Ash: If you really want me to fight back, then so be it!

Ash suddenly appears behind Sarada who was just about to turn around, and then he strikes her shoulder with the broken katana and flows his lightning power through it.

Ash: Lightning Knife!

A big blow of lightning blows through the katana before he pulls it away and jumps away, leaving Sarada paralyzed on the spot by the amounts of lightning he gave her.

Sarada: Grrh! I-I never knew you put so many lightning chakra o-only to paralyzed me.

Ash: *Pants* Yeah I waste a lot of my chakra alright!

The whole audience sweatdrops because of what Ash admitted, this of course made the other finalists confuse by his choice.

Inojin: Was that even worth to admit?

Boruto: I'm not sure.

Ash: Yeah I admit it because it's all according to my plan.

Sarada: Huh? P-Plan?

Ash: Yeah, look on the ground. See anything suspicious?

Sarada tries to look around her though she struggle from the paralyzed and saw some tiny paper bombs on the ground.

Sarada: What?! Since when did you—

Ash: When you punched those kunais I use, they are actually filled with paper bombs that only triggers by lightning chakra.

Sarada: W-Well don't you think it's a waste t-to use them all on me?

Ash: Hehe, try remembering it again. What other source of lightning that is still around here?

Sarada: ...*Gasp* You don't mean—

Suddenly something fell down from the sky, it was Sarada's demon wind shuriken that was still surrounded by lightning chakra and it triggers all the paper bombs.

Ash: Yep! Your own jutsu!

The paper bombs starts to explodes all over Sarada and creates so many rapid explosion. After a while, the explosions wear off, revealing Sarada was fainted by the final attack.

Lee: Sarada is unable to battle! The winner is Ash Ketchum!!

The whole audience starts cheering and applauding for Ash for his awesome tactic in the battle and how unexpected the battle was. Even the Five Great Leaders were impressed.

Chojuro: Now that is some tactic there.

Gaara: Yes, I bet you didn't teach him that, right Naruto?

Naruto: *Sweatsdrop* Hehe, you got me. But he's a good ninja, and I hope to see more from him.

In the Pokemon World, Sasuke was thinking through the battle while looking a bit troubled by what is happening now.

Sasuke: (Wait, I think I still have it with me. I can use that then)

Drohen: Okay Aegislash! Use Autotomize!

Sasuke: Aoi! Fling this!

Sasuke gave something to Aoi before she flings the thing to Aegislash and the item got stuck on him, it was actually a Ring Target.

Drohen: A Ring Target? Ah! Are you going to—

Sasuke: Yeah, now use Lion Barrage, Aoi!

Aoi quickly appeared in front of Aegislash and kicks him up into the air, she then appeared below him and land some side kicks then a punch down.

Aoi: This is it for you! Lion Barrage!

Aoi then ends it with a hard side kick down to the ground that made a crate under Aeislash then she hops away from him.

Sasuke: Now Aoi! Finish it with Sand Shower!

A cloud of sand cloud appeared in front of Aoi before she blasts a lot of sands towards Aegislash rapidly until he's fainted.

Sasuke: Great, the plan worked the way I wanted it to be.

Drohen: Oh man you're taking this very seriously huh Sasuke?

Sasuke: Well both of us does, don't you agree?

Drohen: Agree.

Drohen put his Aegislash back into his pokeball before he bring out Lurantis again.

Sasuke: Well let's see if you like a taste of your own attack. Aoi! Use Toxic!

Drohen: Oh no you don't! Lurantis, go for Leaf Storm!

Lurantis quickly use Petal Blizzard but it wasn't enough to stop Aoi's toxic as she got hit and badly poisoned. Aoi on the other hand got hit by the Leaf Storm and made her fainted.

Drohen: Oh man, my Lurantis

Sasuke: *Sigh* Atleast Aoi didn't wore out for nothing.

Sasuke put Aoi back into her pokeball before she then bring out Shiro.

Drohen: Well lucky Lurantis knows that move.

Sasuke: (I think Drohen is going for a healing move. Oh no you don't) Shiro! Use Taunt!

Shiro then starts taunting Lurantis just in time before Drohen gives her command.

Drohen: Ah dang it! I was just about to use Aromatherapy to heal her!

Sasuke: Heh, wasn't expecting that to happened, right?

Drohen: Well no worries, I still have some fights left within me!

Sasuke: (3 of my pokemon already fainted; I better make this one count)

-

-

Meanwhile the Kalos Team was watching the battle from the waiting room, they seem a bit worried.

Clemont: Three of Sasuke's pokemon got fainted by the enemy, but atleast they have the same amount of pokemon now.

Bonnie: S-Serena? Will he be okay?

Serena: Well, if we believe in him. I'm sure he can win this battle, I'm sure of it.
