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

This was something they had agreed upon beforehand: after traversing Ultra Slug, these legendary Pokémon would stay in their Poké Balls temporarily.

The Ultra Ball is primarily designed to counter the Ultimate Aura; it has a very strong shielding effect and might help Solgaleo evade the pursuit of the Mulligan.

Ash also gave Dea a similar item, allowing him to capture Zeraora.

"Where should we go next?" Lila wondered, facing the endless wilderness.

Ash kept saying that Ultra Metropolis was a technologically advanced metropolis, but the place they were in now was not much better than the ruins of the Ultra Tower they had been in before.

"We can take Poison Baby home first, and maybe we can find out about the world from its people." Ash quickly made a decision and sent out the little guy who had been itching to get out there.

"Bi~ Bii!" As soon as Poison Baby appeared, it immediately spun around excitedly, spilling paint everywhere.

"Little guy, take me to meet your family elder, I want to chat with it."

“Bee!” Poison Baby immediately agreed.

But just as it was about to take off, it froze in place, scratching its head awkwardly: "Bi...bi-ee~"

"Has this child... been out for too long and lost his way home?" Xiao Lan couldn't help but put her hand to her forehead.

“It’s never left the nest before, so it’s normal that it doesn’t know the way.” Ash patted Poitomic on the head. “It’s alright, I’ll send my friends to look for it.”

Ash is now very skilled at large-scale reconnaissance. After sending out Lucario and Dragonite, he quickly obtained the information he wanted.

This is a space dominated by darkness, mostly wilderness with no vegetation in sight.

The location of human cities has not yet been discovered, but sporadic activity at Leyte Stones and several Ultra Beast dens have been confirmed, inhabited by Baby and its evolved form, Jawed Needle!

"Whoosh!" Dragonite arrived in an instant like a gust of wind, bringing Ash his latest discovery.

It discovered an exceptionally large dragon's nest, whose leader was a unique Naganadel. The creature immediately recognized that Dragonite was a Pokémon from another world!

Lucario was already waiting there, and Ash and his friends, led by Dragonite, quickly arrived at the dragon's nest.

It was a huge hollow located beneath the wilderness, with cracks of varying sizes covering the ground like a giant net connecting the intricate underground world below.

Several strong and powerful Naganadels were watching Lucario warily, while a group of little creatures hid in the cave, occasionally peeking out curiously to observe.

Deep within the underground region lies a gigantic four-jawed needle dragon.

Sensing the arrival of Ash and the others, it barely raised its head and signaled to its pack to make way.

“Travelers from another world have arrived; bring them to my side.”

The slightly feminine yet clearly audible voice instantly spread throughout the dragon's nest, causing Ash and the others who were observing from the surface to be secretly alarmed.

"Is it telepathy? It can actually travel such a long distance." Xiao Lan couldn't help but exclaim.

She has had considerable experience with legendary Pokémon, so she naturally knows how powerful this level of telepathy is.

At the very least, Celebi, who was traveling with her, would never have done that!

"Let's go pay them a visit." Seeing that the dragons had made way, Ash joined Lucario and they headed deeper into the dragon's nest.

Ash was very curious about the leader of the dragon pack, and he also believed that the other party had no hostility.

Of course, he mainly trusted Pocket. Ash had once confided in Pocket using their superpowers, and if there were any risks on this trip, Pocket wouldn't just watch him jump into the pit.

At the end of the dragon's nest is a huge semi-circular space, like a plaza, with honeycomb-shaped holes covering the surrounding rock walls, which are densely packed with many creatures.

The colony pattern of Babydon honeybees is actually very similar to that of honeybees, except that they do not need to collect nectar.

Young Poison Babies are protected and perform some tasks within the nest; the stronger and more evolved Jawless Needle Dragons go out to find food and defend the nest.

The leader of the entire group, the Four-jawed Needle Dragon, who is equivalent to the queen bee, is sitting on the throne in the center of the square.

It was much larger than a typical four-jawed needleosaur, but it appeared weak and listless, with its large head lying slumped on the ground and its wings on both sides of its body seemingly unable to flap.

Even when Poison Baby excitedly flew up to greet it, it only responded weakly.

"Thank you for coming here, humans without thorns..." the Naganadel said apologetically to Ash and the others. "I'm sorry to see you like this, but I really have no strength left..."

"It's alright." Ash shook his head, and under the wary gazes of the Naganadel and Poipole, he squatted down and raised his hand to stroke the Naganadel's cheek.

hum!

A burst of vitality shone forth, and the dragon chieftain felt himself rapidly regaining his energy, as if he had become several years younger!

"What amazing power... But you're actually willing to share your life force with me?" As a well-informed Ultra Beast, it naturally knew what Ash had just done—it was practically sharing his lifespan!

"It's not that serious. This is life force converted using the power of aura, so it won't affect me." Ash smiled and shook his head. "You are Pocket's elder, so you are my elder too. It's only right that I do this for you."

“Poison Baby…” The four-jawed needle dragon turned its head to look at the little guy and found it covering its mouth and chuckling. Then it excitedly spat out a series of lightning symbols on the ground.

"I like it, I like it the most"—that's what Poison Baby wants to express.

Although they haven't spent much time together, it has already come to regard Ash as its favorite person... and also the light it is searching for!

"Poison Baby has really met some wonderful people. Perhaps you really can resolve this crisis," the Naganadel said with a mix of emotion and hope. "These dark and hopeless times have lasted far too long..."

"I want to know the whole story, the backstory of Necrozma, the Sun and Moon, Metropolis, and the war here!" Ash asked directly.

"Then I'll show you... starting from the past of this world." As he spoke, a colorful light shone from the eyes of the Four-Jaknaejiro.

It created an illusion with extremely high spiritual power, allowing Ash and his friends to witness that past history as if they were there in person...

A chapter in history about humanity's battle against the glorious gods!

Chapter 793 Mule Horse, its IQ is really high

In the past, Necrozma has always shone brightly in the Ultra Dimension as a radiant god.

At that time, all the ultimate spaces were bathed in sunshine, and all kinds of plants grew on the ground, and everything was thriving.

But the humans of the Ultimate Metropolis at that time were not satisfied with this. Driven by desire, they attempted to completely control the Radiant God and use its enormous energy at will.

So they began to plot in secret, and finally the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity arrived.

On one occasion, a huge meteorite suddenly struck, and the Radiant God had no choice but to endure the intense impact in order to fight against it.

Meanwhile, the people of Metropolis seized the opportunity to launch an attack. They first persuaded the sun god and the moon god to abandon their rescue of the Radiant God, and then they used various high-tech weapons to attack the Radiant God!

The war ended in a Pyrrhic victory for humanity. The Radiant God's body was damaged, and it could no longer gather light within itself. In a fit of anger, it withdrew almost all of its light, dragging the entire Ultimate Space into darkness.

In order to cope with the coming of darkness, the people of Metropolis had to build a tower and use artificial light to barely suppress the God of Light.

They barely managed to make ends meet, but outside the metropolitan area, darkness descended upon the region...

“The people of Metropolis are going too far…” Lillie frowned as she listened to this history.

"Yes, the Radiant God is busy saving the world, but they're plotting to betray us." Little Blue sneered disdainfully. "They even managed to turn the Sun and Moon Gods against us... If I were Necrozma, I would never let this go after breaking free!"

Her words were a reminder to Ash that if Necrozma still remembered this grudge, it would be difficult for it to reconcile with Solgaleo and Ultra Metropolis.

“Those humans were indeed greedy and short-sighted, which caused the subsequent turmoil.” The four-jawed needle dragon sighed and continued, “Just recently, they suddenly had the idea to help Necrozma recover her body.”

“There must be some ulterior motive.” Lila immediately sensed something was wrong.

“Yes, I noticed that too, so when Darth from the survey team came to me for help, I promptly refused.” The Jawless Needle Dragon nodded. “As it turns out, I wasn’t wrong. Their plan was to have the Radiant God devour the Sun and Moon Gods to restore its power!”

The little AI understood why the Four-jawed Needle Dragon was so indignant; it was clear that the methods used by the people in Metropolis were ill-intentioned.

The reason Necrozma turned into this grotesque state is ultimately because during the initial great battle, a part of his body was shattered by humans, causing the light within him to leak out continuously.

In the eyes of the Jaw-Stewros, even if Necrozma did devour the sun god and the moon god, it would only be plundering their energy and could not guarantee the repair of its own body.

The people of Metropolis certainly know this too; they are merely using this as a pretext to try and bring the sun god and moon god completely under their control.

This is actually the same tactic their ancestors used. They once tricked the Sun and Moon Gods into not going to rescue Necrozma; now they are trying to trick the dragons allied with them into helping them fight the Sun and Moon Gods.

Fortunately, the four-jawed needleosaur was wise enough not to fall for their trick.

The Sun and Moon gods certainly didn't want to become food, which led to the series of actions that followed, including entrusting the guardian deity with the orphan's care and then handing Solgaleo over to Ash.

“Even so, my kind, including all the creatures living in this space, were still affected.” The four-jawed needle dragon sighed softly, “Those humans underestimated the Radiant God. During its sealing, it continuously radiated brainwaves, attracting countless creatures to besiege the Ultimate Metropolis, forcing humans to release it to deal with the situation.”

"Excellent." After listening to the Naganadel recount the entire process of the previous war, even though they were enemies, Ash really wanted to give the Mammoth a thumbs up.

The reason why the people of Metropolis suddenly had the idea of ​​restoring the power of mules and horses must be that they had found a way to control them.

So, driven by insatiable greed, he tried to repeat the mistakes of his ancestors and attempt to manipulate the fully realized Radiant God.

However, their negotiations with the Sun and Moon Gods broke down, leading the Gods to simply abandon their responsibilities, which greatly reduced the combat power of the Ultimate Metropolis.

Meanwhile, Mule seized the opportunity, pretending to be completely obedient, while secretly using his brainwaves to influence the Ultra Beasts such as the Rocky Rock and the Four-Jawed Needle Dragon in the wilderness, causing them to launch an attack on the metropolitan area.

The people of Metropolis couldn't handle it, so they naturally had to send out mules to deal with it. As a result, the mules kidnapped Lunala who was stranded there, destroyed the Ultimate Metropolis Tower, and happily escaped before starting to hunt down Solgaleo all over the world.

Once it truly devours the Sun God and briefly reverts to its true form as the Radiant God, it will likely return to seek revenge.

Look, this is the intelligence that a great god like Glorious should have; his special ability truly lives up to its name, the power of the brain core.

However, the Four-Jagdala was quite formidable. It used its powerful mental strength to resist Necrozma's brainwave manipulation and learned the whole story.

That's why it became the wise one in the event, thinking that it could go to Alola to seek a solution to the problem.

"Human from Alola, may I ask you a favor?" the Jaggidra pleaded earnestly. "Use your special powers to help repair Necrozma's body and restore the light to the Radiant God... and to all of space!"

"I... can only do my best," Ash said helplessly. "I've already gained Solgaleo's approval, and now I'm escaping with it..."

If we just plug the holes in Necrozma, all of this will be over... But it's easier said than done!

Moreover, Ash and Lillie are currently being chased by two Mules, and it remains to be seen whether they can escape unscathed.

"I see. Well then, I can only wish you all the best." Naganadel understood Ash's predicament and didn't insist.
