Ash, with his invincible physical body, wants to become a Pokémon Master...

"The ancients made those beads to control ancient Pokémon as weapons."

"However, the power of the ancient Pokémon far surpassed the wisdom of the ancients, and all they did in the end was to desecrate nature."

At this moment, Watari looked angrily at Himura and Ushio, who were standing beneath him with expressions of terror.

"The more evil the person who controls them is, the more out of control the ancient Pokémon become, which is why those two orbs were sealed away."

"The goal was to prevent humanity from making the same mistakes again, but I never expected that people from your two organizations would be so unscrupulous."

"Even if we face all the restrictions painstakingly set up by the ancients, we must break through all the puzzles and mechanisms to dig out those two beads, which has led to the situation we are in today!"

Lance's reputation as a Pokémon Inspector is quite well-known in Hoenn, so Fire Village and Tide recognized him immediately.

Faced with his questioning, the two of them lowered their heads and remained silent for a moment.

They never imagined things would turn out this way; they were all acting out of a desire for a better tomorrow for the world…

Himura was the first to react, and immediately knelt down before Awatari with a thud.

"Lord Adu, we know we were wrong. We can't even get close to the edge of the battlefield now; any Pokémon that get hit by the blast will instantly lose their ability to battle."

"So please, Champion Adu, please save Boss Crimson Pine!"

At this moment, Crimson Pine, with complex blue patterns appearing all over its body, stood atop Groudon's head, laughing wildly, its face full of madness, and its eyes devoid of any reason.

Shui Wutong on the other side wasn't much better off; in fact, he was even more deranged. He couldn't even give a single intelligible command anymore, and was shouting and babbling incoherently in a state of frenzy.

Things have escalated to this point, and it's beyond their control to resolve.

At this moment, Ah Chao finally realized what was happening and quickly knelt down with Huo Cun, begging Ah Du to save Shui Wutong.

A-Du sighed. Of course, he wanted to save him too if he could.

"Groudan and Kyogre are blessed by the heavens and earth that gave birth to them in their respective regions, and can unleash power far beyond their own."

"There can only be one Groudon and one Kyogre in an era. Symbolizing the ocean and the land, they are truly as powerful as gods in Hoenn."

The incredibly powerful Arctic Ray unleashed by Kyogre earlier had already terrified Lance, as his Dragon-type Pokémon were most afraid of this type of ice-type move.

If it were just one Groudon, Lance wouldn't lack the confidence to face it, but now that there's also a Kyogre that can use powerful Ice-type moves, the situation is different.

He felt that if he got close, he would be attacked from both sides at the same time and wouldn't last long.

"Without help, I can't fight alone. Right now, I can only let Groudon and Kyogre fight until they are exhausted, and then I'll think of a way to subdue them."

"Is this all we can do?" Himura sighed and slammed his fist on the floor, looking at the battle area where lightning and thunder were still raging in the distance.

Fortunately, the two mortal enemies, Water Wutong and Crimson Flame Pine, are deeply obsessed with each other, and even when they go mad, they only have eyes for each other.

Therefore, they kept Groudon and Kyogre locked up near the Isle of Lore, not daring to run to crowded areas, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. Lance didn't dare to wait leisurely any longer.

But will the two divine beasts, who can draw power from the sea and the land, ever ever get tired of fighting?

Soon, the island of Dreams was in ruins. The surface of the island was plowed up by Groudon and Kyogre's moves, making it a truly pitiful sight.

What's more troublesome is that the foundation of the entire island seems to have been damaged, and the edges of the island are constantly loosening and slowly sinking into the seabed.

Although Groudon's attacks can create new land, the temperature of the newly solidified lava alone is hot enough to kill a person.

If this continues, the members of Team Ocean and Team Lava will have nowhere to stand and will face mortal danger. Everyone is terrified.

They clung tightly to Adu's legs, begging the Dragon Messenger not to abandon them.

A-Du frowned at this. Although these people were troublesome, they didn't deserve to die, and the kind-hearted A-Du really couldn't just leave them alone.

However, the Pokémon he carried with him were simply not enough to move so many people to other islands.

"Is it really the only option to let so many lives die?"

Just then, a huge white and a black cyclone suddenly appeared, blasting apart Groudon and Kyogre, who were locked in combat.

Water Wutong and Crimson Flame Pine, along with everyone on the island, quickly looked over.

From the direction the cyclone was coming from, two enormous figures cut through the waves and sped towards us from afar.

"The timing is perfect. Izumi, go help Haruka and the others. Go with Shiro to rescue the people on the island."

"I'm going to deal with Groudon and Kyogre."

"Okay, be careful."

Izumi nodded and immediately jumped up from Ash's arms, performing a few backflips before leaping onto Whitey's back, which was flying alongside Blackie.

Then, Xiaobai quickly changed direction by turning sideways and flew towards Mengsi Island.

When A-Du on the island saw Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, he was overjoyed and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Great, he's here."

Himura was surprised to see that Wataru, who had been looking serious since the beginning, was now smiling. He asked in confusion.

"Lord A-du, who has arrived?"

"A reliable man."

Upon seeing Shiro fly over, Lance and Dragonite immediately threw the people around them onto Shiro's broad back.

At this moment, Xiao Sheng, who was sitting on Xiao Bai's back, saw A Du and immediately greeted him happily.

"Wow, it's Champion A-Du! I'm so excited to finally meet him in person!"

Is he famous?

"Please, sister, he's a well-known and powerful figure in Kanto, a place known for its battles."

Xiaosheng was speechless at his older sister, whose mind was only on food and fashion. She had been a trainer for so long, yet she still had to explain these common sense things to her.

However, the arrogant bespectacled brat was soon punished by his older sister's authority and, with two big bags on his head, obediently went to help receive the people seeking refuge.

After everyone on the island had been evacuated, Lance immediately rode on the back of a Dragonite and flew to Ash's side.

He released his Altaria, and with the help of Sunny Day, instantly unleashed Solar Beam to block a beam of light from Kyogre's Root Wave.

"Thank you for your hard work, Ash. It's really kind of you to be here. On behalf of the League, I thank you for once again lending a helping hand in our time of need."

Lance didn't know that Ash had come specifically for this purpose; he thought Ash had just happened to be passing by and noticed something was wrong, so he rushed over to help.

He now admires Xiaozhi, this sunny and kind young man, immensely.

Ash immediately put on the righteous and awe-inspiring face he always used to deal with the League's higher-ups.

"It's alright, Mr. Adu, it's all I should do."

"And I really enjoyed playing it."

He and Xiao Hei just fought a few rounds with Groudon and Kyogre.

Xiao Hei unleashed its full dark aura, forcefully seizing a corner from the two opposing forces in the sky.

Its dark vortex poured down on the two legendary Pokémon, Groudon and Kyogre, who fought back fiercely.

In the midst of the three-way battle, Xiao Hei suffered many injuries, but it also invigorated it greatly. It had been a long time since it had fought so recklessly.

There's no need to worry about going too far and damaging the opponent or surrounding buildings, nor is there any need to think about tactical arrangements; just attack recklessly.

Xiao Hei fought with increasing ferocity, and his strength increased significantly as he felt more relaxed.

Ash took the opportunity to smash the Flying Gryphon and the Flying Gryphon several times in the melee, and also plucked the Red Pine and Archie off their bodies and tied them up.

Now it's a good time to throw them all to A-Du.

Although they have left Groudon and Kyogre, the two beads have long since merged with the Crimson Spruce.

Even though they were bound, their delirious minds could still control the two divine beasts, and they kept roaring.

"You idiots, how dare you tie me and Shui Wutong up together! You're incredibly audacious!"

“That’s right, I am the future New World Kami who controls the power of the ocean. Release us now.”

"Otherwise, I will definitely use Kyogre's power to blast you into dust!"

After leaving Kyogre, Archie seemed to have regained some of her willpower and was able to speak in more complete sentences.

However, their expressions remained insane, and their words were full of pathetic fantasies. Xiao Zhi immediately punched each of them in the stomach, and the light from the patterns on their bodies dimmed considerably.

Perhaps as the madness brought on by the pearl gradually subsided, the two regained some of their sense of pain, and suddenly their brains throbbed so badly that they foamed at the mouth and kept groaning in pain.

A-Lv didn't stop them, but just looked at the two people twitching on the back of the Dragonite and said disdainfully.

"Wake up! You think you control Groudon and Kyogre, but actually Groudon and Kyogre control you."

"Your attempts to forcibly control Groudon and Kyogre to achieve your unrealistic ambitions have long angered them."

"The insatiable evil desires erode each other, and the resentment that grows in Groudon and Kyogre's hearts deliberately lets you control them, so that you can eventually reap what you sow."

Even now, in this dire situation, the Crimson Flame Pine and the Water Wutong still refuse to admit their mistakes and continue to talk about their ideal of conquering the world.

Groudon and Kyogre below then became even more out of control.

Chapter 491 Primitive Regression

Groudon's Precipice Blade and Kyogre's Root Pulse collided violently once again, causing a massive explosion.

The storm swept across the sky in an instant, and A-Du quickly grabbed the ropes binding Crimson Pine and Water Wutong to prevent the two bastards from being blown away by the strong wind.

The two people, who were swinging on the Dragonite's tail, were extremely pleased with themselves.

"Ash, Lance, you two idiots who came to interfere with our grand plan, this is divine power! Divine power, ahhh..."

"Useless Crimson Flame Pine, can't even make a proper threat, ugh..."

Both of them were thrown off their feet by another wave of intense pain halfway through their conversation, leaving only incoherent groans.

Xiao Zhi looked at the two guys and shook his head helplessly.

"He's hopeless. He talks about lofty ideals all the time, but ends up being this pathetic."

Sakaki, that real villain, is more genuine and unpretentious, and he's more dignified in the face of temporary setbacks.

The Crimson Flame Pine and the Water Wutong Tree are in such a sorry state because they are clinging to the two precious pearls and refusing to let go.

After all, they had gone to great lengths to obtain this powerful force, and their obsession with it ran so deep that they were completely controlled by the backlash from the bead.

Otherwise, these two ancient beads, invented by the ancients, actually have an exit mechanism. As long as the manipulator is willing to give up the power, he can actively separate from the beads.

But the Crimson Flame Pine and the Water Wutong Tree refused to give up, even though their bodies were in so much pain.
