"Is it troubleso?" Cynthia asked, seeing Johan's expression.
Johan nodded, saying quite helplessly:
"I really don't want to 'play' with these madn—they always create completely unexpected problems."
Whoosh——
Reshiram landed beside Johan and called out to him softly.
"You feel it too?"
[Yes.]
As Zekrom's brother, and given that Kyurem, Reshiram, and Zekrom were originally one entity, it was normal for it to vaguely sense sothing.
"Tsk."
Johan rubbed his temples, looking at Colress with annoyance.
This guy...
He truly was a madman.
But sotis, between madness and genius, there's only a thin line.
"Gengar, put him to sleep!"
"Ka-kaah!" Gengar licked its tongue, grinning wickedly at Colress.
"Wait! Wait—"
Bang——
Colress rolled his eyes back and collapsed to the ground.
He looked peaceful, but Gengar's dream realm wasn't so pleasant.
Nearby, Ghetsis, seeing Colress on the ground, imdiately shot him an envious look.
He also wanted to pass out!
But these people before him... were even more evil than evil Pokémon!
The "torture" was one thing, but they even had Glaceon use Wish to restore him, back and forth repeatedly—Ghetsis felt he was going mad...
anwhile.
Larvitar, Victini, and loetta approached the unconscious Forces of Nature.
The Forces of Nature had returned to their original forms, lying motionless in the craters.
"Mimi?" (Are they asleep too?)
"lo~~" (Looks like I don't need to sing a lullaby~~)
While Victini and loetta were conversing, Larvitar had already scurried to the edge of the crater, shook its short legs a couple of tis, and half-tumbling half-running, made its way down to Landorus's side.
"Yoji?"
Larvitar tilted its head, looking at Landorus, with uncontrollable drool flowing from the corner of its mouth.
Slurp——
"Mimi?" "lo?"
Seeing this, Victini and loetta imdiately floated over.
Why is it drooling at Landorus?
Victini didn't understand this, but loetta rembered.
It seems it had given Larvitar a "Ground Plate" from Landorus before...
However, what interested Larvitar most at the mont wasn't Landorus's power, but the "Dragon Vein" power surrounding it.
The "Dragon Vein" is an embodint of the earth, the purest ground energy, but it's also a volatile energy that ordinary Pokémon couldn't possibly absorb.
But the "Dragon Vein" power on Landorus was different—it had at least been "filtered" through Landorus.
Yet it still posed danger.
"Yoji!"
Larvitar seed to think of sothing and fumbled around its body. Under the astonished gaze of Victini and loetta, it took out a fist-sized stone.
A fragnt of the Earth Plate!
The Plates were primordial energy from the birth of the universe, no less potent than the "Dragon Vein."
Larvitar held the Earth Plate fragnt and cautiously approached Landorus.
Sure enough.
The "Dragon Vein" power surrounding Landorus seed to sense a higher-level existence and quickly floated away from Landorus, wrapping around the plate fragnt like taffy.
"Yoji!"
Larvitar's eyes imdiately lit up. After the "Dragon Vein" power was completely absorbed from Landorus, it eagerly threw the plate fragnt into its mouth.
Gulp—Gulp—
"Yoji~!"
Power!!
It was like having a layer of syrup—sweet and tastier now.
And the "Dragon Vein," which had been forcibly activated under Landorus's power, now seed to sense so "natural enemy" and quickly retreated.
The "Dragon Vein" wasn't afraid; it was just... still sealed by the "Sword of the Earth."
"Hmm?"
Johan and the others also noticed the change in the "Dragon Vein." "It's subsided already?"
But now the focus was no longer on Eindoak Town. The Sword of the Earth hadn't loosened, and without Landorus's power activating the "Dragon Vein," it would eventually calm down.
As for the seal imprisoning Victini, which Johan had thought would be troubleso, it had been broken due to the "Dragon Vein's" upheaval and the ground's changes.
That was good news.
But regardless, they needed to go to Giant Chasm.
"Reshiram, Darkrai." Johan looked at his two "lieutenants."
[I will go.]
Reshiram nodded.
Over there was Kyurem, and its brother Zekrom—no matter what, it would go.
Darkrai wasn't as relaxed as Reshiram because it knew Johan's "trouble-making" ability better than Reshiram did. So it crossed its arms and said seriously:
"Need to... add als!"
"Three als!" Johan held up three fingers. "Don't make beg you."
"Three!" Darkrai had initially thought one more al would be the limit, but didn't expect Johan to be so "generous," adding three als at once!
"Hmph! As long as it's not Arceus, I'll take care of everything for you!"
Johan smiled and looked toward Cynthia.
"You—"
Before he could say much, Cynthia said with determination: "I'm coming with you!"
Her tone brooked no argunt.
With Cynthia's strength...
Johan didn't object.
"But what about here..." Cynthia looked at the unconscious Colress and the foam-mouthed Ghetsis.
"Flint is coming, isn't he."
Johan looked into the distance where Flint was approaching on his Rapidash.
"Alright."
So Johan called back his little ones, flipped onto Reshiram's back again, then extended his hand to Cynthia, explaining:
"This will be faster."
Cynthia's cheeks turned slightly red before returning to normal, and she also recalled her Pokémon.
Surprisingly, Reshiram didn't object to this.
"Reshiram, let's go!"
"Roar——!!"
Under the newly cleared sky, Reshiram flapped its snow-white wings. After enveloping Johan and Cynthia on its back in a barrier-like aura, it soared toward the clouds.
Clip-clop clip-clop——
Flint, who had finally reached the hilltop riding his Rapidash, looked bewilderedly at Reshiram flying away with Johan and Cynthia.
His head was full of question marks.
I just arrived, and you two are leaving...
Without saying where you're going, should I follow or not?
At this mont, Flint's desire to capture a Fire-type Pokémon that could fly had never been so strong.
"Flint, these two are criminals. The League people will arrive soon. Watch them—they're completely unrepentant and extrely dangerous villains, be careful." Johan's voice ca from afar.
Criminals?
Completely unrepentant? Extrely dangerous?
Flint, whose sense of justice was overflowing, imdiately found his purpose.
So you two are the extrely dangerous ones, huh?
Unconscious Colress & foam-mouthed Ghetsis: This day... is so long...
In the azure sky.
The snow-white dragon flew through the air, with Johan and Cynthia sitting on its back.
"You... don't need to hold so tight..." Cynthia said softly, her face red.
"I'm worried you might fall," Johan said with a serious face.
"I'm better at flying than you..."
She was much more graceful and at ease riding Garchomp than Johan was riding Dragonite.
Johan gently "oh-ed," but showed no sign of loosening his grip, saying again:
"Then I'm just afraid."
Cynthia's cheeks grew even redder.
Hum——
Suddenly, the Poké Ball at Cynthia's waist shook a couple of tis, and she instinctively took it out.
Click!
The Poké Ball opened on its own.
In a flash of red light, Garchomp imdiately appeared beside Reshiram, staring fiercely at Johan and roaring.
"Garrr!!!"
You punk, let go of that girl—
Before it could finish, Johan took the Poké Ball from Cynthia's hand and shot a red beam, recalling Garchomp.
And with practiced ease, he locked it.
Garchomp: "???"
"The little one is so playful," Johan returned the Poké Ball to Cynthia's hand.
Cynthia gently brushed her hair, montarily at a loss for words.
She tried to change the subject.
"The [Fusion] you ntioned earlier refers to..."
"The Dragon of Ideals Zekrom and 'Earth's Strongest Dragon' Kyurem, plus Reshiram—they were originally one entity."
According to legend, the Three Dragons of the Way ca from a teorite from space, eventually splitting into the Dragon of Truth, Reshiram, and the Dragon of Ideals, Zekrom.
After the split, the remaining husk beca Kyurem.
Because of this, Kyurem had been waiting to fill its lost body with either truth or ideals.
After hearing this explanation, Cynthia finally understood.
"So, if Zekrom ets Kyurem, it might be absorbed?"
"Generally, that would require the [DNA Splicers], but that madman Colress and his device might have so probability of achieving it."
Using Necrozma's crystal to reverse-engineer the [Fusion] effect—only Colress could do such a thing.
"Wait."
At this point, Darkrai couldn't be bothered about interrupting Johan and Cynthia anymore and floated out from Johan's shadow.
"Are you saying we might encounter a fusion between legendary Pokémon?"
Darkrai's face showed disbelief.
This isn't a damn card ga with [Fusion], is it?
"I can only say there's a certain probability."
The best case, of course, would be if it didn't happen. Otherwise...
Things would be quite troubleso.
Last ti he had helped Kyurem, but he wasn't sure if Kyurem would give him face this ti...
Darkrai shook his head, still not quite believing that two legendary Pokémon could fuse, and returned to Johan's shadow.
"Mimi~~"
Victini tightly hugged Reshiram's neck, looking down from above, its large blue round eyes blinking repeatedly.
For the first ti in a thousand years, it had left Eindoak Town to see such scenery—it would be a lie to say it wasn't excited.
"Mimi~Mimi~~"
As for loetta.
Although the little one was reluctant, Johan had temporarily left it in Eindoak Town.
Without Colress's device, only loetta's singing could calm the Forces of Nature.
However, Johan had promised the little one that once this matter was settled, he would make it a big cake upon return—only then did loetta reluctantly accept.
Suddenly.
Reshiram's eyes grew serious, and Johan also put away his joking expression, exchanging a glance with Reshiram as it turned its head back.
"I can feel it."
They all looked in one direction.
Near Giant Chasm, snow was falling, the entire world seed wrapped in silver, and waves of terrifying aura were faintly trembling.
"Roar——"
Reshiram let out a long cry, slightly increasing the speed of its wing beats as it charged toward the white world.
Giant Chasm.
"How could it be..."
N looked at the docunts in his hand with a lost soul, his entire ntal state appearing sowhat abnormal.
Opposite him, one of Team Plasma's Seven Sages, the white-haired Rood, saw his state and revealed a sowhat smug smile.
The docunts in N's hand were given to Rood by Ghetsis and then passed to N, concerning the secret of N's origin.
Only these could make N lose his focus at such a critical mont.
On the other side.
Rumble——
A sizable machine was operating under the protection of nurous Team Plasma mbers, and the light waves it emitted made Kyurem's eyes blood-red.
Bang!!
Kyurem's powerful foreleg slamd toward Zekrom, spewing extrely cold breath that instantly covered Zekrom in frost.
"Roar!!"
The pained Zekrom folded its wings, trying to distance itself from Kyurem. Countless electric currents burst from its body, weaving a large net to envelop itself.
Gigavolt Havoc!
But the hero of ideals' lost spirit had a significant impact on Zekrom.
[N!]
Zekrom's voice echoed in N's mind but couldn't wake him.
"Shikah!!"
Kyurem seized this opportunity, shooting tube-like icicles from the ends of its wings, connecting them to Zekrom.
In an instant, Zekrom seed to feel its body gradually losing autonomy, being slowly pulled toward Kyurem.
"Zekrom!" N seed to finally regain his senses at this mont, seeing this scene and shouting loudly.
[N, believe in your—]
"Shikah!!"
Kyurem once again spewed extrely cold ice breath, completely freezing Zekrom!
Thud——
N fell to his knees with a plop, tightly gripping his clothes.
"I am an ill-oned existence. My sisters disappeared because of , my partners were captured because of , my parents..."
"Am I human or Pokémon? Am I a monster? I am a monster, my birth is proof of failure..."
Confusion, guilt, despair...
Various negative emotions filled N's mind.
He knelt on the ground, as lost and helpless as a child who had completely lost his direction.
Rood and the Team Plasma mbers nearby were pleased to see this scene.
King?
Kneel down, King!
Whoosh——
Suddenly.
A wave of heat swept in.
"That is..." Rood and the others noticed the sudden appearance of the snow-white dragon that brought the heat wave, and the figure standing on its back.
"Reshiram?" Rood's voice trembled slightly.
A hole was broken in the huge ice cave covering the area. Light shone through the opening, falling on N and on Reshiram and those on its back.
"Raise your head, N!"
A familiar and warm voice ca.
N's body trembled slightly, and light gradually appeared in his eyes.
Teacher Johan?
"Be it human or Pokémon, all are life."
"All lives et with other lives and create sothing, and that sothing is the aning of our existence and survival!"
