"I—! Stop! w, help out!
Just as Blaziken and Charizard were about to Self-Destruct to take down Genesect with them, Julian, tagross, and w appeared from the secret realm’s gate.
What they saw was exactly this scene. Shocked, Julian urgently asked w for help.
By this point, Blaziken and Charizard's Self-Destruct had already reached its final stage and could no longer be stopped—it wasn't sothing they could halt at will.
Julian had no way to prevent it, and the only one capable of doing so here was w.
"w~"
Fortunately, w was willing to lend a hand. For Julian, the human who had given it delicious food, it operated on the principle of helping whenever possible.
With a gentle tap of its small paw on Blaziken and Charizard, their bodies, which were on the verge of exploding, suddenly turned into duds. The destructive energy within them vanished instantly.
Sensing that there were other humans nearby, w didn’t want to stay long. Turning to Julian, it said: "I’m leaving now. I’ll co play with you another ti."
Julian was reluctant to see such a reliable ally go, but he couldn’t stop it either. He nodded and said, "Next ti, I’ll have Slowking make so delicious food for you."
w smiled, nodded back, and vanished on the spot.
With Blaziken and Charizard’s Self-Destructs halted by w, Genesect imdiately knocked them down.
Omar, seeing that his Pokémon’s Self-Destruct had failed, breathed a sigh of relief but quickly grew tense again.
Although Julian was powerful, he might not be a match for Genesect.
Just now, they had only caught it off guard with a desperate attempt at Self-Destruct. Now, even if they tried it again, unless Genesect had lost its mind, it would never work.
Julian walked up to Omar and said calmly, "Don’t worry, leave this guy to ."
"Julian… that Pokémon just now, who was it?" Omar asked.
He had, of course, seen w, and the fact that it had casually interrupted Blaziken and Charizard’s Self-Destruct was sothing no ordinary Pokémon could ever do.
"My friend, a First-class Legendary," Julian replied casually.
He saw no reason to hide it. Since Omar had already seen it, he might as well explain, though he didn’t ntion w by na.
Omar: ⊙0⊙

anwhile, the Pannar governnt, watching via satellite as their champion was about to perish together with the unknown Pokémon, felt deep sorrow.
Their country had only one Champion. If Omar were to die, Pannar would be as if it had lost an arm. Though with their big brother, Drakoria, watching over them, they wouldn’t be bullied outright—but they would completely lose their voice on the world stage.
A country without a Champion had no right to speak.
However, at the last mont, Julian and an unfamiliar Pokémon appeared. That unfamiliar Pokémon miraculously stopped Blaziken and Charizard’s impending Self-Destruct, and then vanished without a trace.
Their Champion was still alive—the Pannar governnt breathed a sigh of relief.
anwhile, Ambassador David, who had already evacuated to a safe place, suddenly received word from Pannar that Julian had erged from the secret realm with a mysterious Pokémon by his side.
David hesitated for a mont, then gritted his teeth and flew back.
As a fellow Drakorian and the ambassador, he couldn’t let Julian face that unfamiliar Pokémon alone. Moreover, his intuition told him that the mysterious Pokémon by Julian’s side was anything but ordinary.
Otherwise, how could it have so effortlessly halted Blaziken and Charizard’s Self-Destruct with just a light tap? That was way too absurd!
---
anwhile, Genesect’s eyes burned with murderous fury as it stared at Julian and tagross—most of its energy had been absorbed by this tagross.
With w now gone, what was there to fear?
Killing intent surged toward Julian—only to be cut off by tagross, which floated calmly in front of its trainer.
Thanks to the Seven-Aperture Stone, Julian had gained the ability to communicate with all things—a power even more formidable than Aura.
Earlier, inside the secret realm, he could sense the thoughts of flowers, grass, and trees. Now, he could naturally sense Genesect’s thoughts as well.
Aside from its desire to kill him, what he felt most was… grievance and resentnt.
Thinking about it, it made sense. Originally it had been a level 100 apex predator—a true powerhouse. But because of w, its level had been reduced to 92.
All the energy it had accumulated had beco nothing more than a gift for Julian’s Pokémon.
Of course it was bitter. If Julian was in its place, he too would want to kill the one responsible.
"Julian, this one’s really hard to deal with. And your friend… just left?" ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by ⓝovelFire
Omar was dumbfounded. Wasn’t that Pokémon supposed to be Julian’s friend? Shouldn’t it have stayed and helped deal with Genesect? Why just walk away like that? What was that supposed to an?
"tagross."
Julian chuckled lightly, glancing at his partner.
"ta!"
The armored titan floated forward, its tallic eyes locked onto Genesect.
Rage boiled within Genesect: "Die!"
Its body turned into a streak of purple lightning, vanishing from sight.
At that sa instant, tagross too disappeared from in front of Julian, matching its enemy’s speed step for step.
The next second, both Pokémon appeared in mid-air, simultaneously using tal Claw. Their tal Claws collided with a deafening crash that reverberated across the battlefield and a shockwave erupted outward.
But before it could hit Julian, a massive figure appeared in front of him. Aggron effortlessly blocked the shockwave.
"Champion?!"
Omar’s eyes widened. Only now did he realize that Julian’s tagross was no longer a Pseudo-Champion. The aura it radiated was unmistakably that of a Champion.
Seeing the shocked expression on Omar's face, Julian replied calmly, "I had a bit of an… extraordinary encounter inside. tagross broke through to Champion-level."
If not for his self-restraint, Omar would have cursed out loud on the spot.
What kind of nonsense was this?
That Top-tier secret realm had existed for decades. Not only had he himself ventured inside multiple tis, but other trainers had as well—even Drakoria's Elites and Pseudo-Champions had explored it nurous tis.
How co none of them had encountered such an "extraordinary encounter"?
And yet, Julian, on his first entry, stumbled upon it?
Moreover, tagross's strength had previously been at mid-stage Pseudo-Champion level—it hadn't even reached the peak.
But after just over half a month inside, its strength had soared from mid-stage Pseudo-Champion to early-stage Champion, skipping both late and peak Pseudo-Champion stages entirely.
And without so much as a hint of a bottleneck.
Even a Pokémon with Purple-grade potential would take years to advance from peak Pseudo-Champion to Champion-level.
But Julian's tagross had accomplished it in just a few days.
It was absurd. Outrageous. Utterly unreasonable.
At this mont, Omar felt as if he had lived all his years in vain.
Julian rubbed his nose, sensing that his casual words had struck the Champion of Pannar harder than he expected.
