Arbok's entire head was quickly wrapped up, making it look like a mummy. This also caused Arbok to lose its sight, and it immediately panicked, running around aimlessly.
Bang!!! They accidentally crashed into each other. Ash, seeing this, seized the opportunity.
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!!" "Pika~~~chu!!!" Pikachu, after dodging Koffing's Sludge Attack, leaped up. Large amounts of electricity instantly surged from its cheeks.
Arbok and Koffing crashed into each other, making contact. The Thunderbolt released high-voltage electric snakes, hitting Arbok and also conducting electricity to Koffing.
Both Pokémon simultaneously let out incoherent screams.
Bang!!! The electricity continuously intensified, and soon an explosion occurred. Arbok and Koffing, charred all over, were blasted out by the explosion towards Jessie and James. They directly collided, knocking both of them to the ground.
"What are you two doing? You're completely useless!" The two, knocked to the ground, complained with some dissatisfaction. Their first encounter, they thought it was just underestimating the brat. But now, it seemed this brat was truly not to be trifled with.
"Since that's the case, I'll have to rely on Meowth!" Meowth, seeing its incompetent companions, shook its head helplessly, then turned around, extending its claws, ready for battle.
However, as soon as it turned around, it saw Ash narrowing his eyes and looking at it with a strange smile. Meowth instantly felt a chill down its spine, and a wave of coldness surged through it.
It unconsciously recalled what Ash had said at the Viridian City Pokémon Center earlier, and swallowed hard, too scared to step forward.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!!! Just as things were getting awkward, everyone suddenly heard a buzzing sound. Upon hearing the sound, Team Rocket members trembled.
"You brat, you won't be so lucky next time. This time, I'll let you off!" There was nothing they could do; they were no match.
Hearing the familiar sound, their faces instantly showed fear. They quickly recalled Arbok and Koffing and fled with Meowth.
"What are those two guys up to?" Misty couldn't help but complain, looking at the two.
"Something's coming!" The Samurai Boy seemed to sense something, and this sound was too familiar to him. Ash also frowned.
Buzz buzz buzz buzz!!!! The sound grew closer and closer. Soon, countless figures burst out from the forest.
Bright, huge stingers and web-like wings continuously emitted annoying buzzing sounds. Crimson eyes locked onto everyone. It was a swarm of Beedrill.
"Indeed, it's a Beedrill swarm, and there are even more than before." The Samurai Boy looked at this scene in a panic. He often lived in the forest and naturally encountered such situations.
However, he would always be extra careful, because Beedrill swarms were quite dangerous in the forest. Even some powerful Pokémon would fear them, because there were simply too many of them. No matter how many you fought, you couldn't withstand such numbers.
"Team Rocket those two guys must have provoked them. Ash, what do we do now?" Now, thinking of Team Rocket's situation just now, he understood what was happening.
It was amazing that those two guys, encountering such a situation, could still act as if nothing was wrong and try to steal Ash's Pikachu. And now they'd just run off. These Beedrill seemed very angry now.
"They're coming! Quick, hide in my cabin!" The Samurai Boy said to Ash and Misty, looking at the situation before them. Ash glanced at the small wooden cabin beside him.
To be honest, it was hard to say if this dilapidated wooden cabin could withstand this furious Beedrill swarm. But at least there was some cover.
If they were to fight, the opponent's numbers were indeed too great for a direct confrontation.
Thinking this, he took out a Poké Ball, preparing to recall Metapod first. One-on-one was fine, but in this situation, Metapod couldn't handle it.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!!! At this moment, the leading Beedrill had already charged down first. Once Beedrill got angry, they didn't care who provoked them; they would attack anyone they saw.
"Pikachu!!" Pikachu and Metapod were in front of Ash. Pikachu reacted quickly, instinctively jumping away.
The first Beedrill, after being dodged, immediately charged to the back, diving at an astonishing speed towards Metapod in front.
It directly grabbed Metapod and then took off with Metapod into the sky. Ash frowned immediately, anger flashing in his eyes.
"Put my Metapod down!" "Pidgeotto, use Quick Attack to knock it down." Ash, provoked, didn't bother to dodge. He directly threw a Poké Ball into the air.
Pidgeotto chirped and flew out, its wings spread. Its body immediately glowed with a silver flash. Pidgeotto's speed was already very fast, and it instantly caught up to the Beedrill, crashing directly into the Beedrill's back.
The Beedrill cried out in pain and lost its balance. Its twin stingers loosened, and Metapod instantly fell from the sky. Pidgeotto didn't have time to give chase. Ash quickly ran over.
"Ash!!!" Misty shouted worriedly. Ash seemed not to hear. He leaped high. In an instant, Blaziken seemed to possess him. Although not as exaggerated as a three-story building, it was still better than any high jumper in his previous life.
He firmly caught the falling Metapod, descending with it from the air. Misty breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Ash successfully rescue Metapod. At this moment, the Samurai Boy shouted in panic, "Danger!!"
All the Beedrill, attracted by Ash's attack, didn't go towards Misty or the Samurai Boy. Instead, they charged towards Ash.
"Pika~~~chu!!!!" Seeing this, Pikachu immediately launched an attack without waiting for Ash's command. It released electricity from its body, sweeping towards the air, hitting several Beedrill.
This managed to block a few, but after all, it was only a low-level electric attack, and its power and range were not strong enough.
"Ash!!!" Misty cried out in panic. Ash turned his head and frowned. Pidgeotto circled in the air, spinning back. Although its speed was fast, it couldn't make it in time.
"Bui!!!" At this moment, from the other side of the forest, a cry suddenly echoed. Then, a golden glowing star quickly flew out from the jungle.
Bang bang bang bang!!!! It hit several Beedrill in the front row, instantly causing an explosion with black smoke billowing.
Ash was hit by the airflow and directly fell from the air. Fortunately, Ash had trained for several years. Although the force was a bit strong, he still landed safely, holding Metapod and with his back to the air.
