Chapter 264 The Beginning of the Divine War, The Awakening of the Two Gods of Hoenn! (8k views, please vote!)

Before this match began, even Xia Chi's most loyal fans could hardly have imagined it.

This guy's spectacular performance actually resulted in a higher score than Mikoli!
Of course, there are many reasons.

There were quite a few amusing individuals in the online voting, and the audience had higher expectations for the legendary maestro, Michaeli.
And so on.

However, it cannot be denied that Xia Chi's first dazzling performance was indeed an unexpectedly great success!

So much so that Ma Xiu, Ami, and Li Jia, who appeared later, were all compared to Xia Chi after their performances.

Then they were defeated one by one.

The reason is the same.

With Xia Chi's outstanding performance preceding it, unless there is another truly amazing and groundbreaking performance later on...

Otherwise, it would be difficult to suppress Xia Chi, who far exceeded people's expectations.

Online voters are not professional judges after all.

Besides, even professional judges are often hypocritical, demanding that you make some kind of breakthrough.

Xia Chi has quite a rare opportunity to benefit from double standards this time.

Thus, in a wonderful atmosphere that was both unexpected and yet, upon reflection, quite reasonable.

Xia Chi, a complete newcomer with a dazzling performance, actually won the championship in the preliminary stage of the Mikeli Cup with the highest score in the online vote!
Although she was voted the champion.
But who says the winner of the vote isn't a champion!
The spectacular performances of the first day of the Mikkelsen Cup have now come to a close.

Starting from the second day, the real test of strength and the exciting, clash-filled elimination rounds begin.

However, the outside world's expectations for this ultimate showdown are still very high.

The top trainers participating in the competition, however, had absolutely no intention of preparing for the battle.

If Xia Chi's information is accurate, then tonight at the latest will be the start of Team Magma's crazy operation to awaken Groudon!
However, from the beginning to the end of the performance, from the blazing sun to the setting sun.

The waters around Liuli City have always been calm and peaceful, without any disturbances or waves.

The calmer things seemed, the more tense Xia Chi became, a sense of unease about an impending storm creeping over him.

By evening, Xia Chi had returned to the manor where Mikoli lived.

My Rotom phone suddenly beeped with a notification sound.

"There's information about Loto in the pinned Bogaman group!"

The pinned group chat is the core ten-person group called "[Rat Extermination Operation]"!
Something's up?!

Xia Chi perked up and quickly took out his phone to unlock the screen.

However, when you open the group chat, what you see is a message with a confused emoji.

[Journey: Is Team Lava really having an event today? (Swan Dance in confusion.gif)]

It turns out that Feng Lu couldn't contain her temper.

Xia Chi looked at the adorable swan dance emoji and let out a complicated sigh.

I am relieved that nothing has happened today, but I am also tormented by the long wait and the unknown threats.

After thinking for a moment, he replied in the group chat.

[New Leaf Cat Control: The intelligence is probably correct, but the other side is cunning; they might wait until late at night to make their move.]

The group chat nickname "New Leaf Cat Lover" is a code name that Xia Chi randomly chose.

Unexpectedly, it's highly contagious; now all ten people in the group have four-character IDs.

I don't know why they don't use other formats.

Is it because the number five is not good?
[Soul Dancer: If there's still no movement by midnight, should we stay on alert all night? (Dream Demon in thought.gif)]

Melissa, the Ghost-type Gym Leader of Sinnoh City, raised a crucial question.

The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light.

If Crimson Flame Pine changes its operation time again, are they just going to wait here like idiots?

Xia Chi frowned slightly.

This is indeed a difficult question.

They came from afar to participate in the competition, and joining this operation is also a way of helping.

Demanding that they stay up all night to keep watch is unreasonable and unfair.

[New Leaf Cat Control: No need. Everyone can rest as usual. If there is any emergency, I will notify everyone in the group immediately.]

[Aromatherapy Girl: Huh? Is Xia Chi going to keep watch alone all night? (Sylveon worried.jpg)]

[Aromatherapy Girl: Isn't this too tiring? Shall I keep you company?]

No sooner had the thoughtful gesture of Ma Xiu, the owner of the Carlos Aromatherapy Center, arrived than a certain "gentleman" immediately seized the opportunity to...

[Gentleman Adam: Hahaha, Miss Maxiu is so considerate. But he's safe and sound at the Mikkelsen Manor. Why don't you come stay with me, Miss Maxiu? I have some spare rooms, so it'll be convenient to have someone look after you.]

[Aromatherapy Girl: Get lost.]

[Yu Honglijia: @Xinye Miaokong Xiachi-kun, do we need to double-check the source of this information? (Venusaur is calm.jpg)]

[Yu Honglijia: It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that this unresolved waiting makes me uneasy.]

Confirm the source of the intelligence?

Xia Chi pondered for a moment, then immediately rejected the suggestion.

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't.

Just kidding, who would proactively contact an insider?

Are you afraid the mole will live too long?
For the safety of the Fire Goose, let's forget about it.

Moreover, Xia Chi even had a vague feeling that...

The Lava Team has been silent for a long time. Could they be testing whether there is a mole among them?
He gave himself a false message, and then Daigo left Mt. Okami and appeared in Sootopolis City.
In this situation, it's even more inappropriate to contact Huoyan proactively.

------

Without any intelligence, the discussion naturally yielded no results.

Xia Chi decided to close his eyes and rest, and asked Rotom to notify him immediately if there was any unusual activity.

Eleven o'clock at night.

Suddenly, a message popped up in the [Rat Extermination Campaign] group chat.

[Strong and Powerful (Daigo): Something's happened at Mt. Kami! Team Magma tried to steal the two gems, but they were driven away by Genji and Senri who were guarding the area!]

At Rotom's prompt, Xia Chi jolted awake, his sleepiness instantly vanishing.

They really are carrying out the "Sending Off the God Mountain" operation!

[Mentor Mizuya (Mikori): So the operation in Liuli City was just a cover? Their target is the Crimson Pearl?]

Xia Chi looked at the two latest messages in the group chat, but vaguely felt that something was wrong.

If the target really was the Crimson Pearl, their actions should have been even more resolute.

That feint... it almost feels like a show put on for their own benefit.
Xia Chi pressed for details.

[New Leaf Cat Control: How large was the conflict? How many of the Crimson Pine and the three executives came?]

[Strong and formidable: Details are unclear, but Qianli reported that they defended quite easily. The opponent's lineup consisted of at most a few Gym Leader level Pokémon. They suspected it was a diversionary tactic and did not pursue after repelling them.]

reason!

Xia Chi secretly applauded Genji and Senri's calm judgment.

But the unease in my heart grew stronger.

Team Magma launched a feint attack, while Team Aqua remained completely silent throughout.

This calm is just too abnormal!
He felt he must have overlooked a crucial step.

For example, he has been thinking about—

What else, besides those two divine orbs, could possibly awaken Groudon and Kyogre?
But there are indeed no other items in the game; even the Crimson Orb and the Indigo Orb are unique.

wrong!

A flash of inspiration struck Xia Chi.

Have!
The legendary megalith!
The so-called "legendary megalith" is an important item that appears in the anime series XY.

It is an ancient, massive rock containing immense primal energy, and is considered a possible source of super-evolution.

When the legendary giant rock experiences violent fluctuations, the resulting energy can awaken Groudon and Kyogre!

Furthermore, according to the anime, the legendary boulder was originally discovered somewhere in the Hoenn region!
How could I have forgotten about this!

In this way, the unusual behavior of Team Magma and Team Aqua suddenly had a reasonable explanation—

They threw out a smokescreen of the orb, misleading themselves and the entire Hoenn League to focus all their attention on Sootopolis City and Mt. Sacred Relic!
Their real target is the "legendary megalith" that is unguarded but can directly awaken the two gods!
As for the inability to control the device after waking up?
They don't need to be controlled at all!
Because Xia Chi is located in Liuli City!
They intend to use Xia Chi as a weapon to counterbalance the world-ending war between Groudon and Kyogre!
Once the attention of the entire Hoenn region, and even the whole world, is firmly drawn to the battle between the two gods, they will launch a surprise attack.

Easily seize the sacred pearl of Mount Song, which is readily available due to the lack of protective power, and reap the benefits!

Xia Chi quickly typed this highly probable speculation into the group chat.

The moment the message was sent, the entire group felt as if a depth charge had been dropped on them.

[Soul Dancers: How could they have hidden their conspiracy so deeply?]

[Aromatherapy Girl: Oh my god! You even figured that out? Xia Chi, you're so smart!]

[Strong and impressive: Although this is just speculation, considering all the current unusual signs, the possibility is extremely high!]

[Mentor Xia Chi: So, it seems Team Magma and Team Aqua, these arch-rivals, might actually be joining forces?!]

[Journey: So where is that "legendary boulder"? What should we do now?]

The group chat fell silent for a moment.

Although they were the owners and even the champions, there was one thing everyone tacitly agreed on—

The key figure in this operation is Xia Chi!

At this moment, they were all waiting for Xia Chi's message.

------

Where is the legendary megalith?
How do I know!
Xia Chi was incredibly annoyed. Did they really think I was some kind of Psyduck encyclopedia?
If the anime mentions where it was found in Hoenn, then it's fine.

The key point is, it didn't say that in the animation either!

There must be some details we haven't noticed.

Xia Chi forced herself to calm down, her fingertips unconsciously tapping the table.

Suddenly, another idea flashed into his mind.

Xia Chi realized the crux of the problem.

How did Crimson Pine and the Water Fleet know the location of the "legendary megalith"?
A highly probable conjecture emerged in his mind—

A thousand years ago, the meteorite that fell into the sea area of ​​Liuli City was the "legendary boulder"!
Therefore, it was only through the frantic search by the Lava Team and the Aqua Team that they were able to find out its location and the legends circulating in the Carlos region!
Tsk, I should have thought of that sooner.
I had already deduced back in the Temple of Awakening that the second meteorite was the mother stone of the Super Stone.

The "legendary megalith" in the animation is also the origin of the Mega Stone.

I had overlooked this crucial point for so long due to a lapse in my memory!

Xia Chi felt somewhat annoyed.

But he also understood that this was definitely not the time to be frustrated.

Gathering his thoughts, he immediately sent out the key information in the group.

[New Leaf Cat Control: The "legendary boulder" is most likely the meteorite from a thousand years ago!]

The group chat exploded again instantly.

Just as everyone was stunned by this amazing connection and the information was flooding their screens.

A message carrying a calm tone quietly emerged.

[Yu Honglijia: So why don't we meet up in person and instead chat in the group chat?]

In an instant, the group chat fell into an extremely awkward silence.

The next second, another message popped up.

[Mentor Xia Chi: Everyone, assemble at my manor!]

The matter was urgent, and the ladies had no time to dawdle or get ready.

Just ten minutes later, everyone gathered in the reception room of Mikoli's manor to discuss the plan.

First and foremost, the most important question is: where is the meteorite located?
After all, before this, everyone only knew that such a thing existed.

Its exact location is unknown.

Xia Chi was able to provide an answer to this crucial question—

The "Seven-Colored Meteorite Map" that I got from the system last time is coming in handy now!

It now seems that the purpose of the [Lucky Lantern] being opened wasn't just to solve the [Mega Mystery], but also to set up today's events.
Xia Chi was once again surprised by the "predictive" ability of the Lucky Lantern.

However, the situation is urgent, and there is no time to waste.

Xia Chi's fingertips flew across the Rotom screen, and the "Seven-Colored Meteorite Map" from the system was precisely projected onto everyone's screen by Rotom.

A deep-sea coordinate located southeast of Liuli City, far from the main shipping lanes, was highlighted. "Gentlemen, this is the location of the legendary megalith!"

Without any further mobilization, the manor terrace was instantly illuminated by various colored lights.

Xia Chi quickly stopped Daigo and the others from releasing their Pokémon, who were about to rush out.

"Don't send them all. We need to leave at least half of our people to guard Liuli City."

Mikoli nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go. I'll eliminate any guys who are a threat to Liuli City!"

Daigo said coldly, "Leave the legendary boulder for me, and wipe out Team Magma!"

Feng Lu exclaimed excitedly, "That's amazing! I want to go too!"

Adam said in a deep voice, "Count me in!"

Xia Chi: "."

No, what are you guys doing?!

Seeing that the others seemed to be considering going as well, he interrupted them, saying, "Daigo, Michael, and I are enough. Ryukyu City is more important. You guys stay here to deal with any emergencies. We'll keep in touch in the group chat!"

Having acknowledged Xia Chi's overall command position, the group stopped arguing.

Xia Chi and Daigo exchanged a glance and released Latias and Metagross from their Poké Balls, respectively.

While Mikkuri also has rideable Flying-type Pokémon, they are considerably slower.

The situation was critical, so he hitched a ride with Daigo's Metagross, which had a rather wide back.

Without another word, the two Pokémon shot off like arrows, tearing through the tranquil night sky of Sootopolis City and hurtling toward the dark sea!

Xia Chi lay on Latias's streamlined back, the icy sea breeze cutting like a knife, making him bury his head even lower.

Sensing the trainer's discomfort on his back, Latias separated a portion of its warm energy, condensed it into a shield, and covered Xia Chi's body, protecting him from the biting cold wind during high-speed flight.

"Thanks, Latias."

"I've recovered," Xia Chi said in a low voice.

"Ooh-ee~"

Latias responded gently.

Beside him, silver-blue light and shadow flickered in sync.

Metagross was as fast as Latias, and the two powerful auras left long streaks of light between the sea and sky, their target pointing directly at the location on the map.

The sea area at the target location is not close to Liuli City.

Even with Metagross and Latias flying at full speed, it took about twenty minutes for Xia Chi's location to get very close to the coordinates.

------

When they were still about a kilometer away from their destination, Xia Chi sensed a heart-pounding energy fluctuation with his wave-guiding power.

The air was filled with a pungent, sulfurous odor.

By the dim moonlight and the phosphorescence of the waves, Xia Chi saw a scene that shook him to his core.

In the pitch-black sea, a massive, dark rock with strange crystalline patterns on its surface is half-hidden beneath the surging waves.

Around the giant rock peak that protrudes from the water, several ships painted with the navy blue insignia of the Navy Fleet are moored nearby.

On the boulder, figures moved about, including Team Aqua members in their standard blue uniforms, and even members of Team Magma.

At this moment, they put aside their past grievances and joined forces to operate several giant machines that were constantly emitting a piercing buzzing sound!

The deafening mechanical sound was exceptionally clear even amidst the raging waves, as thick energy blades sliced ​​through the surface of the meteorite.

It seems like the assignment has been in progress for a while now.

Clearly, just as Xia Chi had predicted, the true target of Team Lava and Team Aqua was this meteorite.

Or perhaps it's the legendary megalith!

Daigo took the lead, showing no intention of wasting words with the Magma Team.

He raised his hand and threw the Poké Ball. A burst of white light flashed, and Skarmory's sharp figure tore through the air!
Daigo shouted coldly, "Skapper, Air Blade, Attack Cutter!"

As Daigo gave the order, Skarmory flapped its wings angrily, unleashing a barrage of sharp wind blades capable of cutting through steel, raining down like a storm!

Behind him, Xia Chi also released a Poké Ball from his hand: "Wing Slam, Shadow Ball Swarm! Help Skarmory destroy those machines!"

A flash of white light erupted between the dim sea and sky, and the wings suddenly appeared.

"Ooh!"

A ghostly purple energy gathered around Zhenyi, transforming into dozens of shadow orbs filled with an aura of annihilation, which shot precisely towards the roaring cores of the cutters!
At this moment, Mikeli displayed the profound skills of a water-type champion. He waved his hands repeatedly, and several white lights fell into the sea like stars!

"Mildor, Wailord, Swampert, Gyarados! All units, move out and suppress the enemy ships!"

Nearly ten Water-type Pokémon, exuding the aura of the peak of the Elite Four level or even the Champion level, crashed into the water, creating a giant wave that almost capsized the nearest ship!
Milotic swung and unleashed a towering waterspout, Wailord roared and slammed its massive body into the ship, Swampert gathered terrifying energy in its fists and smashed the sea surface, causing shockwaves, while Gyarados spewed out a devastating beam of energy from the air!

Mikoli's water-type spirit army instantly unleashed an overwhelming offensive!

On the ship, Shui Wutong's face was ashen; she clearly hadn't expected Xia Chi and the others to appear at such a crucial moment.

He turned to look at Crimson Flame Pine, his eyes filled with suspicion. "How did they know our location! Haven't you dealt with the mole on your side yet?"

"How can it be!"

Crimson Pine's eyes seemed to spit fire, "That traitor, I had Fire Village throw her into the crater of Chimney Mountain long ago!"

Seeing that Shui Wutong was about to say something more, Chi Yansong interrupted, "Now is not the time to talk about that!"

He pointed to the display screen of an instrument behind him, which showed that the energy frequency progress was only 5% away!

"Hold on for five minutes, then retreat. Victory will still be ours!"

A complex and unfathomable emotion flickered in Shui Wutong's eyes.

But being a powerful figure, he quickly composed himself and roared at the top of his lungs, "Don't panic! They only have a limited number of Pokémon that can fight on water! For the glory of the ocean! For the awakening of the great Kyogre! Hold on!"

The Team Aqua members, spurred on by the fervent slogan, released their respective Pokémon.

Hundreds and thousands of Megalodon, Iron Claw Lobster, Diantha, and other water-type Pokémon fell into the sea, rushing towards Wallace's Pokémon one after another, forming the strongest defensive line in front of the Aqua fleet.

On the other side, Crimson Pine loudly encouraged the members of Team Magma: "Gentlemen, awaken Groudon! The opportunity to achieve the supreme glory of humankind's eternal continuation is before us. Eliminate all those who stand in our way!"

Encouraged by the cheers of the Crimson Pine, Team Magma unleashed their Pokémon, going all out.

The fire-breathing camel's back spewed out scorching lava like a volcanic eruption, the coal turtle spewed out thick smoke and pillars of fire, and the swarm of crossbats shot out sharp air blades to interfere.

Hundreds of well-trained Pokémon fought desperately in the narrow sea area and managed to withstand the first wave of the Mikuri water-type army!
Xia Chi frowned. The battle was at a stalemate. Although his elves were strong, very few of them were skilled in naval warfare.

Especially Ponpo, who can single-handedly change the course of the battle. As a Grass-type Pokémon, even if she wears the Well Mask to gain the Water type, she cannot unleash her full power in the turbulent deep sea.

As Xia Chi's gaze swept over the Wailord, which was rampaging across the sea like a moving island, a flash of inspiration struck him!
"Latias, take me to Mikoli!"

He shouted urgently.

Latias instantly turned, carrying Xia Chi across the waves, and arrived beside Mikuri, who was commanding the water-type legion.

"Mickey, lend me Wailord!"

Xia Chi shouted.

"Go ahead and take it!"

Mikoli didn't hesitate; the situation was urgent, and there was no need for further explanation.

Xia Chi gently stroked Latias: "Let's go ride on Wailord's back!"

At the same time, Latias's telepathic communication came clearly.

【Okay! Xia Chi, I've established the same telepathic connection as you, this will make things much easier!】

With a telepathic exchange, Latias swooped down, and Xia Chi landed steadily on Wailord's broad, plaza-like back.

The Poké Ball was thrown, and the Spectral Phantom, wearing an ancient well mask, quietly appeared.

"Whale King, please, take Ponpo and charge into the enemy fleet!"

Xia Chi pointed to the platform where the cutting machine was located.

"Roar--"

Wailord responded with a deep, thunderous roar, its massive body accelerating like a siege hammer in the sea!
Xia Chi crouched down, looking directly into Ponpo's eyes beneath her mask, and said resolutely, "Ponpo, the priority is to destroy all the cutting machines! Those who obstruct us, show no mercy!"

He paused briefly, then lowered his voice even further, "Be careful to avoid the fire geese."

"Boni!"

Egui Peng nodded solemnly, and dark ripples appeared on the well mask.

After quickly assigning tasks, Xia Chi sent a mental signal to Latias.

Latias, take me to the main ship!

【Understood! Xia Chi!】

Latias soared into the air, carrying Xia Chi like an arrow, and shot towards the largest flagship of the water fleet!

Xia Chi landed steadily on the wide and chaotic deck of the main ship and immediately spotted Crimson Flame Pine and Water Wutong standing side by side in front of the command tower.

On the other side of the cutting machine, Ponpo and Wailord charged forward. He had only one goal at the moment: to completely eliminate the two culprits of this crisis!

Xia Chi raised his hand and threw out a Poké Ball, and several white lights flashed at the same time!

The remaining Pokémon—Magic Masked Meow, Shakiras, Victini, and Bear Apprentice—all appeared!
The massive deck instantly transformed into a natural battlefield!
Seeing Xia Chi board the ship alone, Shui Wutong's eyes flashed with a twisted fanaticism, and she even tried to entice him: "Xia Chi, you've come at the right time! You know best the power of the Ocean God! Look at this giant rock containing supreme power! Join us and witness the great awakening of the Ocean God! You will become the new world!"

Xia Chi didn't bother with any more nonsense, raised the Key Stone in his hand, and shouted, "Latias - Mega Evolution!"

“Woo-ee-”

A dazzling light of super evolution shot into the sky, and a sacred and powerful aura swept across the deck!

The light faded, and Mega Latias appeared!
Archie's face contorted with rage: "Stubborn fool! Feraligatr, Water Slash! Toad King, Ice Beam! Gyarados, Waterfall! Tear him apart!"

Three ferocious water-type giant beasts roared and pounced on Xia Chi, trying to bypass the Pokémon and go straight for the trainer!

Mega Latias flapped its wings, and pure light transformed into a semi-transparent wall of sighs, blocking Xia Chi's path.

Hold on!

A translucent energy barrier lit up, easily dissolving the raging water and ice light. Mega Latias's dragon eyes coldly locked onto the charging Gyarados!

Before it could make a move, the Magic Masked Cat guarding Xia Chi's side launched a lightning punch.

"Ow!"

The violent lightning illuminated the dim sky, and the terrifying damage, four times stronger than normal, brought this ferocious Gyarados to a halt!

The bear apprentice rushed out, and with the help of the rockfall attack from Shakiras, the three elves were unable to advance an inch!

Just then, Daigo and Michael broke through the obstacles and successfully boarded the ship!
"Aggron, Heavy Blow! Metagross Comet Punch! Ancient Armor, Rock Slide! Cradle Lily, Ancient Power!"

Daigo's steel legion joined the battle, its heavy alloy bodies groaning as they pounded the deck, and its violent rock energy crashed down on the enemy lines!
Mikuri then commanded Milotic and Swampert: "Milotic, Surf! Swampert, Earthquake!"

The three parties joined forces, and their offensive was like a raging torrent!

The ace Pokémon of Crimson Pine and Archie were repeatedly defeated under the siege of several true Champion-level Pokémon.

On the deck, the elites of the Lava Team and the Aqua Team were unable to withstand the energy emanating from these terrifying attacks, and they fell one after another like dominoes, their defenses teetering on the brink of collapse!
Crimson Pine was blasted dozens of meters away by the heavy impact of the Boscodora's fire-breathing camel. His glasses were shattered, and his face was covered in oil and blood, leaving him in a sorry state.

The two mortal enemies, Crimson Flame Pine and Water Wutong, exchanged a glance, and a hysterical, insane light suddenly erupted in their eyes!

With voices distorted and torn apart by extreme madness, the two simultaneously roared into the communicator: "All units, change targets, maximum firepower—bombard the 'legendary boulder'!"

The command was given the instant.

All the still-operational ships suddenly turned their guns, revealing the remaining fire-breathing camels, coal turtles, megalodons, and iron-clawed lobsters on their decks.
All the Pokémon that could still fight, regardless of their type or injuries, poured out all their violent energy towards the legendary stone standing in the sea under the desperate and fanatical command of their trainers!

boom--

Countless beams of energy, each with different attributes, yet all equally destructive—

Flames, frost, sound waves, rocks, and water—like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea—were relentlessly bombarding the legendary boulder!

Time seems to freeze at this moment!
The dark surface of the meteorite, which had endured countless cuts and bombardments, cracked and peeled off inch by inch like rotten tree bark!
Where the rock had been peeled away, there was not rock, but a dazzling, almost blinding, seven-colored radiance that seemed to contain something beyond the energy of life!
A terrifying wave of extremely high frequency spread silently from the boulder, causing space to distort violently as if a stone had been thrown into the water!
Direction towards the Temple of Awakening.

Rumble, rumble——

A terrifying roar, like ten thousand thunderclaps, echoed from the depths of the earth, as if the entire skeleton of the continent was breaking apart!
Around the deserted island of the Temple of Awakening, scorching, viscous lava shot into the sky, evaporating countless bodies of water and dyeing half the sky a burning, blood-red hue, like the end of the world!
Thick smoke obscured the stars, and in the center where lava and smoke intertwined, a massive, crimson figure that blotted out the horizon slowly rose to its feet!

With each step it took, it triggered a terrifying tremor that shook the earth, and every footprint behind it solidified into a small island of lava!
It raised its massive, mountain-like head and roared towards the crimson sky, announcing the return of the earth's ruler—

Groudon, the god of the earth, awaken!

On the other side, towards the deep-sea cave.

woo-

A long, ancient whale cry, seemingly capable of penetrating all matter and soul, came from the deepest abyss!
Immediately afterwards, the calm sea surface collapsed downwards without warning, forming a bottomless abyss with a diameter of tens of kilometers!

The next second, billions of tons of seawater were lifted up out of thin air by an invisible force, transforming into a world-destroying wall that connects the sea and the sky and is powerful enough to submerge the continent!

A tsunami containing endless raging waves swept across the entire sea surface as far as the eye could see!
A violent hurricane appeared out of nowhere, and dark thunderclouds rolled overhead!

At the heart of the raging torrents and stormy thunderclouds, a colossal shadow covered in deep blue divine runes burst through the abyss, stirring the entire ocean as it rose into the air!

Its cold eyes swept across the world, emitting a long, ancient sound that proclaimed the authority of the seas—

Kyogre, the god of the sea, has arrived!
