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

But there's nothing we can do; there's no reasoning with intruders.

If you can't beat it, the only thing you can do is lock it up!

"Mr. Steel, thank you so much!" After helping Blue up, Ash thanked the old man gratefully.

"It's nothing. Being able to make it myself means a lot to me." Steel waved his hand with a smile, but took another ball from the shelf. "I'll give this to you too. I anticipated that you would continue to replace it, so I made it in advance, but you never came to see me."

"A Giant Heavy Ball? That's perfect for me!" Ash's eyes lit up.

With Steelix's current length exceeding fifty meters, the Super Heavy Ball is actually nearing its limit, and now it's a perfect fit.

"It's good that it's useful. Our generation is getting old, and there's less and less we can do," Steel sighed, his tone tinged with helplessness. "The world today can only be protected by you young people..."

"Please don't say that," Xiao Zhi quickly said, acknowledging that he didn't deserve it.

Everything he does is done with a clear conscience, and he doesn't need others to remember him.

Moreover, in every incident, he was never the only one who put in the effort!

Over the past three days, Nanami has mobilized a large number of Aether Foundation members and deployed numerous Ultimate Aura Detectors across the four islands. The island kings of Hala and other islands have also been on high alert.

Sabrina, going all out, has essentially healed Lusamine's mental world, while also relentlessly interrogating the four Ultra Beast captives, including Nihilego Ido.

Serena had already arrived in Baike City, but instead of going home, she immediately began searching the wilderness surrounding the city.

Meanwhile, Gary ran all over the Great Gate City at an extremely fast speed. Lance had already personally led Lorelei and Kiku to Alola. Rika, Misty, Korrina, Brock, Silver, and Haru, who strongly requested to follow, were also ready to go!

Gary has now gone to Hoenn. It's uncertain how many people will be sent there, but Shiba, who is stranded in Hoenn, and Vine, who is under his protection, will definitely head to Alola!

"Unity is strength" is not just a slogan for Xiaozhi, but a belief that he has always practiced!

"Time is of the essence, so we're getting ready to go!"

After resting briefly at the Steel House, Ash activated the Ring and led everyone to Kanto.

The landing point opposite the circle is a research and development base of Ash Technology Company... This place was originally Team Rocket's main base in Kanto. After Lance destroyed it, Ash jokingly said that he could give it to him, and the Elite Four member actually took it to heart.

Ash led the three girls to a huge, sealed room, which was completely empty... except for the Ultimate Aura!

Blue's parents were swallowed up by the Ultra Hole right here!

"Solgaleo, give it a try, can you sense it?" Ash asked hopefully.

Xiao Lan also tensed up immediately and unconsciously squeezed Xiao Zhi's hand tightly.

Although she usually pretended not to care, when the moment actually arrived, she couldn't suppress her excitement.

I'm really going to see my parents again soon, after being separated from them for almost ten years...?

"Roar... Roar!" Solgaleo shook its big head and looked around. Finally, it found a faint fluctuation of the Ultimate Aura and immediately let out an excited roar.

"Great!" Ash exclaimed in delight, immediately cooperating with his opponent to open the Ultra Cave. "Let's go!"

With all three girls on Solgaleo's broad back, Ash rode the lion into the black hole, speeding towards the world on the other side of the passage.

Sitting behind him, Xiao Lan subconsciously tightened her grip on Xiao Zhi's waist with both hands, the strength of which reflected the girl's current unease.

The pitch-black landscape quickly changed as Solgaleo emerged from the funnel-shaped opening and landed steadily on the ground.

“This place… um, it’s a desert!” Lillie was about to look around when a gust of sandstorm suddenly swept in, causing her to quickly pull down the brim of her hat.

Ash told the three girls to put on goggles, and then everyone began to look around and discovered that they were in a desolate desert.

Perhaps due to a time difference, the sky above everyone's heads was also a hazy, dark expanse, obscuring the sunlight.

"No... this isn't a desert, it's ruins!" After riding Solgaleo for a while, Ash suddenly realized something was wrong.

“Yes, there are still building ruins left,” Lila nodded, but then hesitated, “Why does it feel so familiar?”

In the desert, scattered ruins, exposed steel bars, and building fragments were visible... This apocalyptic scene, however, felt strangely familiar to Lila.

What's even more bizarre is that after walking this stretch of road, the group found absolutely no signs of life.

Even those Pokémon that might live in the sand were not seen.

The entire space was so desolate, it felt like a ghost town…

"I feel like I'm somewhat familiar with this too..." As she walked, Lillie seemed to have this feeling as well.

If the surrounding area is filled with buildings, they should currently be...

"This is Hauor City, and we're at our usual market!" Ash quickly concluded.

With the help of the management wizard's powerful analytical abilities, he immediately connected the desert in front of him with Melemele Island, making them almost indistinguishable.

They were located in Hau'o City, and Ash could even mark Grandma Morani's fruit stand on his phone!

And that large, concentrated area of ​​ruins not far away must be…

"It's here..." Ash's heart skipped a beat, clearly having already guessed the world they were in.

But this is really incredible.

Having been transported to such a place where death is certain, it's amazing that Xiao Lan's parents are still alive. It seems that even the heavens want them to be reunited!

"Let's go to those ruins." Ash led the group toward the distant wreckage.

If he can meet that person over there, then he can be certain about this world…

Soon, the group arrived at their destination.

Looking at the dilapidated gate in the darkness, the three women fell silent in unison.

This is the Pokémon School, but it has been completely destroyed!

click!

Just as everyone was wondering, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck nearby.

Appearing alongside the lightning was a cat-like Pokémon with an incredibly cool appearance, walking upright, accompanied by a man wearing a cloak.

"Who are you guys... wait, is that Pokémon Solgaleo?!" The man became very wary upon suddenly seeing Ash and the others.

Yet the existence of the sun god made him unable to suppress a look of surprise, as if he had seen new hope...

"Please don't misunderstand, we are travelers from another world." Ash explained kindly, a look of certainty finally appearing on his face!

Mythical Beast, Zeraora; and former Ultimate Patrol member, Dia!

This is Alola, but the real name of this world should be called the Ultimate Building!

It is also Lila's hometown...

Chapter 789 Dia, It Turns Out to Be an Old Acquaintance

"Another world..."

Dia hesitated noticeably after hearing Ash's explanation.

But soon, he seemed to have made up his mind again, shaking his head and advising Ash and the others: "You should hurry up and leave, use Solgaleo's Jump Ride to get away from here."

"Why?" Xiao Lan asked, puzzled.

"Don't you understand after seeing all this?" Dia looked around and raised her voice, urging, "Alola, even the whole world, has been destroyed. If you don't leave soon, you'll run into that terrifying guy sooner or later!"

"The terrifying guy... you mean Guzzlord, right?" Ash said confidently.

"How did you know?" Dia was taken aback.

"I didn't finish what I was saying. We've come from another world to find our relatives." Ash led Lyra to his side and introduced her, "My name is Ash, and this is my sister Lyra... She's a native of your world!"

"How could your sister be... Wait! Her name is Lila?!" Dia suddenly widened his eyes, staring intently at Lila's face until he saw her lilac hair, as if he had finally confirmed her identity!

For a moment, he became incredibly excited and even involuntarily lunged forward... Fortunately, Ash stopped him in time.

"Please calm down."

"Sorry." Reminded by Ash, Dia finally came to her senses.

He barely managed to control his actions, but when he looked at Lila, he still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

“I am Dia… You may not know me, but I know your parents and have heard your name from them.”

After some stumbling and awkward moments, Dia introduced himself and explained the situation of this world to Ash and the others.

Ash already knew most of this when he saw the spirits of Lyra's parents before.

A sudden monster crisis erupted across the world, and Alola was invaded by hordes of Guzzlords, and was destroyed in a very short time.

Lyra's parents were Interpol agents investigating the incident. When Alola was invaded, they pushed Lyra into the Ultra Hole and later joined the local Ultra Patrol to fight against Guzzlord.

Dia met them during this time. About ten years ago, he was just a recruit in the Ultimate Ranger. He had received a lot of guidance from Lila's parents and had even met Lila before she was three years old!

After everyone, including the Guardians, abandoned Alola, Dia did not leave. He withdrew from the Ultra Rangers and fought alone against the invaders who remained there, vowing to defeat their invasion!

Without support, without supplies, and even unable to use Z-Moves, he was accompanied only by Zeraora.

“I met this guy by chance.” Dia looked at the handsome electric cat beside him. “He’s very stubborn and has always wanted to defeat the Gluttonous King, so we became partners.”

"Zeraora... Hey, are you injured?" The observant Lillie noticed a scrape on Zeraora's arm.

She immediately took out medicine and bandages and treated the other person.

During this time, it was inevitable that Lillie would touch Zeraora's body, but she did not experience any discomfort.

Ash saw all of this and couldn't help but secretly admire him.
