Chapter 338 You're just a loli among the mythical beasts! (6k)

Meanwhile, at the other end of the deck.

Seeing that the perfect teamwork between Magic Masked Meow and Super Tyranitar had completely overwhelmed the arrogant Moltres, leaving it in a sorry state.

Originally looking somewhat disheveled from Zapdos's swift and ferocious lightning pursuit, Winged Fly suddenly had a glint in its crimson eyes, and its expression instantly changed.

While deftly dodging a twisting bolt of lightning lashed out from behind by Zapdos with a near-perfect Z-shaped sway, it rapidly scanned the battlefield.

When its gaze swept over the Martial Arts Urshifu, who was single-handedly moving through the Team Plasma Pokémon group as if it were nothing, with its fists unstoppable, a bold tactic instantly formed in its mind!
"Ooh!"

[Master Xiong, over here!]

As it sped toward the Martial Arts Bear Master, it shouted loudly, its voice filled with a mixture of urgency and excitement: "Whoa!"

Quick, give me a punch, but don't use too much force!

"boom!"

With a clean and swift low kick, Martial Arts Master Xiong sent a Crossbat that was trying to sneak up flying. Hearing the sound, Xiong turned his head in confusion and looked at Winged Hair, who was flying towards him. His rugged face was full of incomprehension.

"Woo-hoo?"

Are you alright? Did you get knocked out?

Why doesn't it remember that Winged Wing has this strange masochistic tendency? Could it be that it was struck in the brain by Zapdos's lightning just now?
"Ooh!"

There's no time to explain, it's urgent, trust me!

Zhenyi urged anxiously, his figure already flying to the front of Martial Arts Master Xiong.

Despite his doubts, the trust built up through years of fighting side by side led Martial Arts Master Xiong to choose to execute the order unconditionally.

It lowered its waist, and deep, dark, malevolent energy rapidly condensed in its right fist, deliberately suppressing its power to a minimum before unleashing a punch—

Dark Nether Strike!

bang——

With a muffled thud, even though Master Xiong had shown mercy, the force was still considerable.

Zhenyi's petite body was struck as if by a heavy hammer, and she staggered forward, her life force plummeting instantly, and her breath becoming weak.

However, at the very moment it was injured, a layer of strange pink energy, like a transparent film, suddenly emerged from the surface of Zhenyifa. The energy film was filled with mysterious light patterns, enveloping Zhenyifa completely!

"Painted Skin" triggered!

Martial Arts Master Xiong stared at the glowing pinkish-purple energy film for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening.

It finally understood the tactics hidden behind Zhenyi's seemingly absurd request!
Since we can't withstand any of Zapdos' attacks, let our teammates attack and control the generation of "Disguise"!

At the same time, relying on the invincible state granted by the "painted skin", Zhenyi suddenly turned around without fear.

With a flap of its wings, it transformed into a purplish-gray afterimage and charged headlong into the Zapdos in the air, which was gathering even more powerful lightning!
Zapdos was clearly unaware of the energy membrane that had suddenly appeared on its wings.

Seeing that this annoying little mouse not only didn't run away, but instead dared to rush towards it, a flash of furious anger at being slighted appeared in its eyes.

"Wow!"

A sharp, piercing cry rang out, and Zapdos flapped its wings violently, unleashing a golden bolt of lightning containing destructive power that tore through the air and slammed down towards the oncoming wing-shaped beam!

One hundred thousand volts!

The terrifying lightning, powerful enough to instantly vaporize steel, struck Zhenyifa squarely, who was unable to dodge, or rather, had no intention of dodging at all.

However, the result surprised Zapdos.

The anticipated scene of the wings being charred black and falling to the ground did not occur.

The moment the destructive lightning bolt touched the pinkish-purple membrane on Zhenyi's body, it vanished without a trace, like a mud ox sinking into the sea, only causing a tiny ripple of energy before mysteriously disappearing into nothingness!

The winged engine, protected by the thin film, was not damaged even by a single hair!
Unscathed!

"Ooh~"

【My turn!】

Zhenyi shook his head, which was not covered in dust, and a smug smile, almost wicked, appeared on his face.

Taking advantage of the Zapdos's brief moment of shock due to its ineffective attack, it suddenly flapped its wings forward!
The dense rock-based energy rapidly compressed and crystallized, instantly condensing into a massive, dazzling gem with sharp edges and exuding a terrifying aura!
Power gem!

The gem, like a cannonball, slammed into the base of Zapdos's right wing, which had been injured by a blow from the wrecked wing before it could fully recover, with a shrill whistling sound as it tore through the air!
bang——

With the [Lord of the Underworld] bond and the terrifying state of having previously boosted Special Attack to its peak through [Trickery], this Power Gem, which has double the advantage, unleashed astonishing power!

"唳——!!"

Zapdos let out a mournful cry, a mixture of pain and rage!

Even with its legendary physique and defensive durability, the right wing still felt a piercing pain under this highly targeted and fierce attack.

The previously stable and smooth flight posture was instantly disrupted, and the huge body began to shake violently in the air!

The successful delivery of the damage also allowed a surge of life energy to flow back into Zhenyi's body through an invisible link!
Its strength, which had been reduced by more than half due to Master Xiong's punch, was instantly restored to full strength by this attack, and even overflowed!
Unfortunately, the base HP stat of the Winged ...

Given this shift in power dynamics, it's not surprising that a fully enhanced double-counter move could instantly drain a player's health to full.

After a successful strike and fully recovering his stamina, Zhenyifa adhered to Xiachi's team's consistent tactical principle of "hit and run, never be greedy for a strike".

With a flap of its wings, it nimbly flew backward, its gaze sweeping across the battlefield once more, searching for the next kind spirit that could help it "refresh" its disguise.

------

Almost at the same moment that Zhenyi Fa withdrew and retreated, the martial arts bear master who had been following closely behind had already completed the seamless transition!

Its massive body burst forth with astonishing speed that was completely disproportionate to its size, and it rushed to the front of Zapdos, whose movements were slowed by its injured wing, as if it were teleporting!
On his right fist, the dark energy symbolizing ultimate destruction and penetration condensed once again, but this time, it was no longer a merciless strike!
Dark Nether Strike, unleashing its full power!
The martial arts master's sharp eyes were fixed on Zapdos's right wing root, which had just been injured.

That's where its defenses are weakest and where it feels the most pain!
“Woohoo!!”

With a thunderous battle roar, a powerful punch, imbued with the Martial Arts Bear Master's lifelong cultivation and full physical attack enhancement, tore through the sky like a cannonball and struck Zapdos's wound with unstoppable force!
boom--

A deafening explosion, as if metal and bone were shattering simultaneously, rang out!
Immediately, Zapdos's body, wreathed in golden lightning, was struck head-on by this precise and deadly Dark Strike, completely losing all balance and lift as if hit by a battering ram.

It transformed into a golden afterimage, crashing headfirst onto the solid airship deck in a far more disheveled state than the firebird!
boom--

With a deafening roar that shook the earth, and a heart-stopping, ripping sound from below deck.

Zapdos's figure pierced through the deck and disappeared into a huge hole that was constantly emitting black smoke and sparks!

Martial Arts Master Xiong's figure fell to the ground like a meteor, following closely behind, and stomped heavily on the edge of the hole.

Its aura was like boiling magma, smoothly switching from the unparalleled ferocity of a single strike to the continuous flow of a combo!
Without pausing for a moment, his strong yet exceptionally agile body leaped directly down through the hole!

The next moment, a sound like a storm of blows came from below, along with Zapdos's even fainter, desperate cry.

The surging sound of the rushing water mingled with the roar of thunder, interspersed with the occasional angry roars of the martial arts master, who was thoroughly enjoying his fight.

"Whoosh-"

Among mythical beasts, you can only be considered a loli!

------

The reversal came so quickly.

On the deck, the remaining members of Team Rocket and Team Plasma, as if collectively frozen in place, stared dumbfounded at the scene before them that was beyond their comprehension—

Moltres was repeatedly taught a lesson by Magic Masked Cat and Super Tyranitar, and was trampled underfoot.

Zapdos was brutally attacked and sent flying below the deck by a series of combos from Umbrella Master.
Am I hallucinating?
Those are the three sacred birds!
According to local legend, the powerful being that countless trainers dream of is being brutally beaten like a grandson by these "ordinary" Pokémon?
Is this still a legendary elf?

Isn't this difference in strength reversed?

Even the two well-informed high-ranking members of the organization, the Three Beast Warriors and the Seven Sages, were deeply shocked and filled with indescribable astonishment and a hint of hidden fear.

Before the operation began, they all agreed that the biggest obstacle to Xia Chi's involvement was the Egui Peng and Leishiram, whose strength was completely beyond the norm.

As long as you can use Deoxys to restrain the former, and then use Zekrom to exchange for the latter.

The remaining spirits were nothing but chickens and dogs in their eyes, and the power of the three legendary birds was enough to easily sweep them away.

However, reality gave them a resounding slap in the face!

These seemingly ordinary main Pokémon that Xia Chi overlooked have now become the key to turning the tide of the entire battle!
With their exquisite teamwork and incredible performance, they managed to bring the lofty legend down from its pedestal!

Not far away, Cynthia, who was commanding Garchomp and Lucario, paused slightly, a look of disbelief flashing in her eyes.

Having personally battled Articuno, she knew best the strength of these three legendary Pokémon, which were far beyond the reach of ordinary Pokémon.

Even if a Champion-level Pokémon came, it definitely wouldn't last more than two rounds.

The power derived from ancient legends allowed them to reach a height that ordinary elves could hardly attain.

Even she needs to be fully focused to deal with it; the slightest carelessness could put her at a disadvantage.

But how could Magic Masked Cat and its companions so cleanly and efficiently defeat two beings of the same level simply by working together in pairs?

Although Moltres and Zapdos were not completely incapacitated at this moment, they were still struggling.

But judging from the almost one-sided crushing victory, as long as this tactic is maintained, it is only a matter of time before they are completely defeated.

Cynthia stared absently at the center of the deck, where the calm-faced boy still sat steadily on Milton's back. This figure slowly overlapped with the boy she remembered from their first meeting in Shanghai a year ago, a boy who still carried a hint of naivety and immaturity.

Yet it appears so different, so dazzling.

Unbeknownst to them, had that boy grown to the point where even legends paled in comparison?

A complex and inexplicable emotion quietly swept through the heart of this Sinnoh champion.

------

Meanwhile, on the vast sea, far from the noise of the airships.

Another decisive battle concerning destiny and belief has reached its climax!
"Roar--!!"

Reshiram let out a dragon roar that shook the heavens, and his pure white body radiated a sacred and majestic light under the moon.

Its tail organ, which resembles a biological turbine, is now operating at unprecedented power, emitting a dazzling orange-red light as hot as the core of a star!
Overclocking drive mode, fully activated!
Its counterpart, Czechoslovakia, was equally determined.

Its jet-black body seemed to blend into the deepest night, with only its scarlet eyes and the dazzling electric light leaping from the superconducting engine at its tail demonstrating its boundless power!

One white, one black.

One is reality, the other is ideal.

Two immense forces, originating from the same source but heading down completely opposite paths, collided and clashed wildly in the sky above this sea area, like two destructive energy tides!
The sky seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force, one half reflecting the blazing white and warmth brought by Rehiram, while the other half succumbed to the darkness and oppression brought by Zekrom!
On the sea, the waves surged and the giant waves towered, as if trembling for this fateful duel that spanned thousands of years!
There was no probing, no holding back!
From the very first moment of the battle, both sides raised their power to the peak, each attack was launched with all their might, and each collision was enough to cause mountains to crumble and the earth to split!

Reshiram opened its massive maw, and boundless light and heat gathered in its throat, finally spewing out a blazing, bluish-white beam of light that pierced the heavens and the earth!
This is the purifying fire that represents ultimate truth and burns away all falsehood—the Azure Flame!

Czech Röhm raised its head and roared, its superconducting engine at the rear unleashing billions of lightning bolts, which condensed into a violent lightning spear capable of tearing through space!

That was the thunder of destruction, symbolizing absolute ideals and the breaking of all obstacles—a lightning strike!
boom--

Flame and lightning, two extreme forces, collided violently in mid-air!
In an instant, it was as if the world had fallen silent!

All that remains is the terrifying, blinding light produced when pure, extreme energy is annihilated.

A massive sphere of energy, a mixture of flames and lightning, expanded rapidly and then exploded outwards!
The terrifying shockwave spread rapidly outward in a ring shape, forcibly pressing a huge crater with a diameter of over a kilometer into the sea below, and towering waves surged outward in all directions!

As the light faded, the figures of the two giant dragons reappeared.

Their energy fields appeared somewhat chaotic, and their white fur and black carapace bore the marks of the other's erosion. Clearly, in that earth-shattering clash just now, neither side had gained a decisive advantage.

But the fighting spirit in their eyes burned even more fiercely!
Just as the aerial battle was temporarily at a stalemate and the fighting on the airship deck was nearing its end.

hum-

A strange and ancient surge of power suddenly spread out from the deep sea where underwater ruins were hidden, instantly engulfing the entire battlefield!
Whether it's Reshiram and Zekrom, who are catching their breath and recovering, or the Magic Masked Cat and Martial Arts Bear Master, who are locked in fierce combat on the deck.

At this moment, everyone turned their gaze to the dark surface of the sea.

A thrill, seemingly from the ancient wilderness, is emanating from the deep sea!
Immediately, a shocking scene, enough to be etched into the souls of all who witnessed it, unfolded!
Boom——

The vast sea below seemed to be stirred up by an invisible giant hand, suddenly rising into a huge arc with a diameter of over a kilometer!

The seawater surged wildly outwards, forming devastating ring-shaped tsunamis!

Amidst the cascading water and deafening roar, an enormous shadow bursts through the abyss, carrying billions of tons of seawater, breaking free from the ocean's cage!

It was an ancient building that resembled a pyramid, covered with thick marine sediment and tangled giant seaweed.

Countless drops of seawater cascade down its sloping walls like waterfalls, reflecting shimmering light under the moonlight, adding to its sense of age and mysterious grandeur.

Xia Chi was taken aback.

That's an underwater ruin?!
------

Xia Chi had seen this scene before.

To be precise, I saw it in the anime storyline.

The fact that the underwater ruins have risen to sea level means that Giovanni has obtained the Revealing Mirror!

Looking back at the situation on the airship, the three sacred birds were being suppressed and were clearly in dire straits.

Without hesitation, Xia Chi flew in Milton to the location where the underwater ruins had risen.

Ignoring the still-raging storm around him, Millerton traversed the vast distance in just a few breaths with terrifying speed, almost like teleportation.

It hovered steadily above the wide platform at the top of the newly discovered underwater pyramid, a distance of only a few dozen meters!
From his vantage point, the view from the top of the tower was crystal clear to Xia Chi.

In the center of the platform, two figures stood silently.

On the left is N, still wearing a white baseball cap, his face mostly obscured by shadows, seemingly out of place with the surrounding noise.

On the right, the middle-aged man in a sharp suit with his neatly combed hair stood in stark contrast to N's silence.

His face beamed with an undisguised, almost arrogant, victorious smile—a smile of absolute confidence and arrogance that regarded everything as a chess piece!

It is none other than the Gym Leader of Viridian City, Sakaki the Earth!

In his hands, he held a mirror with an extremely ancient and mysterious design.

It is highly likely that this is the legendary Mirror of Manifestation, which can summon and control the forms of the Four Cloud Gods.

"Master Sakaki?"

Xia Chi frowned and asked a question, pretending to be shocked that Sakaki was the leader of Team Rocket.

The voice, carrying a questioning tone, echoed across the gradually calming sea.

"You're the mastermind behind the Rockets?!"

Sakaki slowly raised his head, his gaze first sweeping greedily over Milton beneath Xia Chi, before refocusing on Xia Chi's face, his smile growing even more unrestrained.

"Hehe. I've been forgetting to formally introduce myself to you, Mr. Xia Chi."

Sakaki nodded slightly like a polite gentleman, but the ambition and coldness in his eyes contrasted sharply with his courtesy.

He put down the mirror that revealed his true form, stood with his hands behind his back, and appeared calm and composed, as if he were the true master of this place.

"I am Sakaki, the current owner of the Rockets."

Although Xia Chi, perched atop Milton's back, was geographically superior, Sakaki seemed to have reversed their positions at this moment.

He was arrogant and haughty, as if the ancient ruins beneath his feet were nothing more than a stepping stone on his path to the throne.

In the sky, Deoxys, having shaken off Ponpon's pursuit, landed behind him like the most loyal guardian.

It's not a pushover like the three legendary birds; it can switch freely between speed and defense modes, and it also has an almost abnormal self-regeneration ability, so it can easily restrain Ponpo for a short period of time.

At the same time, Zekrom and Reshiram also stopped fighting and returned to N and Xia Chi's backs respectively.

"So, Mr. Xia Chi."

Sakaki raised his arms, his voice still incredibly clear despite being drowned out by the waves on the sea.

"Having witnessed such power, and seen this ancient miracle manifest because of me, do you still not understand? The old world order is corrupt; only by breaking it down and rebuilding it can we usher in a new life!"

He looked intently at Xia Chi and extended a formal invitation, his tone carrying an undeniable force.

"Join Team Rocket! With your talent and my strength, let's create a beautiful new world together, shall we?"

Xia Chi clicked his tongue in amazement and shook his head. "If you want to rule the world, just rule the world. Why do you have to glorify yourself?"

Xia Chi saw through his true nature, but instead of getting angry, Sakaki's smile became even more unrestrained and flamboyant, as if he had heard some funny joke.

"Define it however you like."

He spread his hands, his posture unrestrained.

"History is always written by the victors, and people like you and me are born to stand at the top of the masses!"

"Go tell that to the league!"

Xia Chi remained unmoved. He looked at Sakaki, or more accurately, at the Revealing Mirror beside Sakaki.

With a meaningful look in his eyes, he said, "You should be careful. There's an old saying in Donghuang: 'When the heavens are arrogant, rain will surely fall; when people are arrogant, disaster will surely follow.' There are some powers that you can't control!"

Sakaki was startled, and he tried his best to control the emotions on his face and the urge to turn his head to look at that mirror that revealed his true form.

Xia Chi is definitely bluffing!
He's out of options now, which is why he's resorting to psychological tactics—a zero-cost method!
That must be it!

After quickly calming himself down, Sakaki once again revealed his ruthless nature.

"Really?"

Sakaki chuckled, his laughter filled with absolute confidence in his own strength.

He raised the ancient mirror high with both hands and pointed it at the sky, which was still in chaos due to the emergence of the ruins!

"There is no power in this world that I, Sakaki, cannot control!"

Sakaki's voice overwhelmed the wind and waves, echoing between heaven and earth.

"Cloud God, heed my call, obey the covenant of the Mirror, and descend upon this place!"
