Pokémon, Ash is going to become a perfect man from now on.

Although he still misses the days of outsmarting and outmaneuvering the protagonist's halo.

It was that experience that shaped his ruthless and unscrupulous behavior within the rules, and also made him gradually realize his true nature.

Regardless of power or orders, he always made choices based on his own will!

Now that he's free from this constraint, the temptations will increase accordingly, making the choices he makes even more difficult.

(I think this power suits you quite well~) The management spirit muttered under its breath, then solemnly warned, (Don't be too careless. It will definitely know what happened today, it just doesn't want to deal with you right now... You two will meet one day, and then you'll have to rely on yourself.)

(I know.) Ash was mentally prepared for this.

The most terrifying opponent is one who doesn't say a word, because they simply don't want to talk about anything and don't want their perceptions to be corrected!

If it discovers next time they meet that Ash is not only imperfect but also goes against its wishes in various ways, it might just unleash its full power to punish Light Shard with all eighteen types!

However, Ash wasn't too worried.

If it really comes to that, all he can do is take a gamble!

(Hey, there's something I don't understand...) Although he wouldn't worry about the future unnecessarily, Ash still had some doubts. (Why did it choose me, and why did you guide me to fight against it?)

(It chose you, surely to make the world perfect, an idea it had since the beginning of creation... but the specific method remains unknown.) The management spirit explained, (As for me... just assume I don't agree with this idea either, and don't want the world to suffer because of it.)

(Polygon II, who are you?) Ash frowned in confusion.

But the other party never responded, so Xiaozhi had no choice but to give up.

After calming himself down, he noticed that Mewtwo was still replaying the change in his mind, while Lugia was looking at him gently.

"Sorry... I was distracted just now." Ash apologized, then thanked him sincerely, "We really owe you a lot this time. If it weren't for that final attack, Mewtwo and I might not have made it."

"It mainly depends on your own efforts; I'm just helping out a little." Lugia shook his head. "But I really didn't expect that you would have any connection with that person."

She's getting more and more curious. She thought it was just a whim to steal a man from her best friend... uh, a brave man, but it turns out there are quite a few people who are interested in him.

It's both the will of the planet and the creator god...

"I never expected that you would attack it for my sake," Ash said, filled with gratitude.

Lugia directly confronted her superior, which would have been deeply appreciated. In ancient times, she would have been offered herself in gratitude.

Ash is even worried that it might end up on that pro player's blacklist because of that Aerial Blast move...

“I do have a lot of respect for it, but it’s clearly forcing you to do things you don’t want to do,” Lugia said seriously. “What I admire more than that respect is your spirit of pursuing freedom no matter what.”

"Luggia..."

"Come here, controller." While Ash was still in a daze, Lugia created a stream of water and gently swept him to the center of the magic circle.

“It’s been delayed for too long, and this ocean desperately needs to recover.” Lugia looked at Ash gently. “Controller, may I formally tell you your name?”

"I'm Ash, from Pallet Town in Kanto," Ash said earnestly.

"Ash, I am about to unleash the power of Poseidon. Please take this time to fully comprehend it. This is a gift I give to you on behalf of all the creatures in the ocean... and it is also a token of my friendship."

hum~

As Lugia spoke gently, the magic circle beneath Ash's feet began to emit a green light, as if a spring full of life was gushing from the seabed, gradually enveloping Ash's body, and then quickly spreading into the sea, beginning to repair everything that had been destroyed!

From the seabed to the surface, and then to the sky and the earth, everything is being revitalized!

Ash also received a notification from the Pokémon in charge, and he is absorbing this part of Poseidon's power!

Lugia removed the bubble that was enveloping Ash at some point, but Ash was still able to breathe freely, and even his overall senses seemed to have been enhanced.

He could clearly hear the Pokémon celebrating in the sea, and with just a casual glance, his gaze could traverse vast distances.

With a casual wave of his hand, he could create a small whirlpool and manipulate it to drift freely in the sea!

This is the power of Neptune, the power to be in harmony with the sea and control ocean currents!

Chapter 315 Harvest Review, Riding the Dragon Joins the Team!

Ash feels very strange. Even though he is surrounded by seawater, he can see and breathe, as if he is a part of the ocean.

To use an imperfect analogy, it's like being completely submerged in an LCL while piloting an EVA.

However, the ocean was the original cradle of life on the entire planet, so this analogy is quite apt.

Under the influence of energy such as electric currents, nutrients needed for life are generated in the ocean, and transported to all parts of the world by the movement of cold and warm currents... This is the operating mechanism of deep ocean currents, and it is also the responsibility of the three idiots of Asia Island.

As for Lugia, the god of the sea, it was born from ocean currents and represents the ocean movement of the entire Pokémon world.

In the course of this movement, the world is also constantly evolving...

After acquiring the power of Poseidon, Ash not only mastered the ability to manipulate small-scale ocean currents, but also gained these insights, which made him even more aware of the importance of Lugia's responsibilities.

Similarly, he also learned that the duties and powers of the three sacred birds were essential!

However… these three silly birds are not essential!

"What an amazing power. No wonder those three birds coveted it so much... Anyone would find it hard not to be tempted." After roughly confirming the state of the Sea King's power, Ash couldn't help but sigh.

"They've wasted their time," Lugia said noncommittally. "Those three were completely blinded by greed... They have no idea that the power of Poseidon can only be passed down to humans!"

"Is this happening?"

“Of course, the powers you possess are the same; only humans can utilize them to their fullest potential,” Lugia explained. “These powers were specifically designed for humans by the planetary will, and only the complex emotions that humans possess can resonate with them to the fullest extent.”

"I see."

Ash finally understood why the Alpaca went to such lengths, even creating the Red Chain, to choose him: it simply had no other choice!

These are all human powers, and it wanted to create a perfect vessel that could contain all these special powers, but in the end, it could only choose humans.

As for other Pokémon, they either have human genes added to their bodies like Mewtwo, or they become Ash's apprentices like Cynthia's Lucario. Otherwise, they simply cannot grasp the essence of these powers!

"In short, this is part of the Sea King's power here on Asia Island," Lugia said with a smile. "If you're interested, you can look for others in the future."

"Anything else?" Ash asked doubtfully, but a thought suddenly struck him.

He remembered that the Sea Crown and the Sea Temple from the Advanced Generation movie should also belong to the power of Poseidon.

"The ocean is the most vast thing in this world. A human who fully controls the power of the Sea King might be even stronger than a Pokémon like me. The will of a planet cannot easily gather such power... However, you might be one of those possibilities."

Lugia's tone was earnest, and she looked intently at Ash: "Try your best to find it... Without a solid backing, how can you contend with such an existence?"

"Lugia, thank you!" Ash said with heartfelt gratitude.

He understood the implication in Lugia's words: the other party was instructing him to gather all of Poseidon's power to fight against the supreme creator god!

Similarly, it is willing to stand behind Ash and become his support!

"I just made a choice." Lugia shook its head with a smile. "Ash, you are a very special human... Rather than making you the hero for me and Ho-Oh, I would rather be your friend now."

"We're friends now... but I'm still your hero!" Ash said seriously. "I love this identity, and I'm proud of it now!"

The sea god who bravely shields the innocent from attacks, Lugia who dares to attack the creator god for its own sake... Ash is willing to become its hero, not to carry out its will, but to protect its safety!

Lugia didn't say anything more, but gently rubbed its neck against Ash's chest, then rolled him onto its back.

"Let's go." It flapped its wings, manipulating the ocean currents to lift its body out of the water, and Mewtwo followed suit, leaping out of the sea!

A deafening roar echoed from the shore—the jubilant celebration of the survivors and their Pokémon!

Lugia carried Ash around the island of Asia once, allowing him to receive as many greetings as possible, before turning around and flying towards Thunder Island.

Those three silly birds, after being brutally beaten by X-Ray, are now all paralyzed on Thunder Island, guarded by a giant Alakazam and Dragonite.

Ash's five main fighters, including the Lapras, were all gathered there.

"Hey everyone, we're back!" Ash waved excitedly as he saw his friends in the distance.

As soon as he landed, Pikachu immediately jumped onto his shoulder and settled comfortably in its most familiar spot.

"Pikachu, you really have gotten stronger!" Ash noticed the abundant power within Pikachu the moment they made contact!

The management team has confirmed that Pikachu has officially completed its partner transformation.

Without a doubt, it is now a partner Pikachu with a base stat total of 430 and four exclusive moves!

Furthermore, after checking, Ash discovered that Pikachu's two Electric Orbs were now reduced to only one, but they were still functioning!

Ash's prediction was correct. Even if Pikachu mutates into a partner version, it will still enjoy the double attack bonus from the Electric Ball.

This Pikachu's damage output is absolutely explosive. If Ash wanted, he could take it to challenge the Elite Four right now... and he wouldn't even have to worry about the outcome!

In addition, Charizard also showed some unusual behavior; Ash was stunned when he saw it.

It looks completely wrong. Even though it has already exited Mega Evolution, the flame on its tail is still that blue demonic fire!

The color of its inner wings was the same as when it was spraying X, and it was even deeper than usual. Its two horns stood up like spikes, and there were still a few raised ridges on the back of its neck.

Overall, it looks like it hasn't completely degenerated and still retains some of the characteristics of X-jet...

"Charizard, you didn't actually digest that Power Crystal, did you?" Ash asked incredulously.

"Roar~" The old sprite scratched its head sheepishly. It had no idea what this kind of topic was, but anyway, it felt great right now~

The power within its body surged as if it were exploding, and it even had to carefully control its steps... otherwise, if it stepped on the ground carelessly, it would crack the ground!

"That's true, anyway it's a good thing." Xiao Zhi thought for a moment and decided not to care anymore.

It would be best if it was digested; maybe then we could bring back another prop!

For example... Y stone?
