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

His long-held ambitions and all his secret schemes were laid bare before the other party! Qi

(Mr. Lydari, in my opinion, you can't be equated with the other group... after all, you haven't actually started committing crimes yet.) Just as Lionhead was silently lamenting, Ash's voice suddenly rang in his mind, (I will put down the boulder, and I also ask you to behave yourself in the future, and not impose your extreme ideas on the world... and anyone in this world!)

Ash's attitude towards Lysandre is probably the same as his attitude towards the red Gyarados in the Lake of Rage.

He wouldn't allow all the Magikarp in the lake to suffer harm just for the sake of the original story's plot benefits, and then comfortably 'pass by' and capture the most unique individual.

Similarly, when Lionhead was just harboring cynicism and hadn't yet officially started destroying the world, he still hoped that the other party could pull back from the brink and not follow the villainous path of the original work.

Of course, Ash wasn't as good at persuasion as the other party, and Lysandre wasn't someone who could be easily convinced, so he chose to use his power to intimidate him.

As long as he is still in this world, Vladali's hopes are destined to remain nothing but wishful thinking!

If he stays in Kalos and continues to be a high-tech entrepreneur, Ash guarantees he'll achieve both fame and fortune... but if he dares to cause trouble again, Ash won't be as easygoing as he was this time!

“Mr. Ash, you’re right… the Giant Rock should indeed remain in Hoenn, and I will seriously consider your suggestion…”

After a long silence, Vladali finally lowered his head heavily, completely giving up on the idea of ​​the giant rock.

As for whether he actually gave up his original 'ideals', only he himself knows the answer.

“I also hope you will seriously consider this.” Ash nodded and smiled with satisfaction. “Also, although the Giant Rock cannot leave Hoenn, I would still welcome you to join the research.”

"What does Mr. Ash mean...?" Fladari instinctively sensed something was wrong, but for a moment he couldn't figure out what the other person was planning.

"It means exactly what it says. You can stay in Hoenn and study the Giant Rock together." Ash's tone carried a hint of threat. "If you're too busy, you can also send some capable scientists over... I heard you have a researcher named Kuseroschi, he'd be quite suitable."

"You!" A flash of anger crossed Fradiley's eyes. He then realized that Ash was blatantly threatening him!

Alternatively, he could stay in Hoenn and be under Ash's supervision from then on;

If you disagree, you must hand over a core member of Team Flare!

“I understand… I am honored by your high regard, Kutherosch will certainly be honored to come.” Vladali nodded dejectedly, abandoning his most brilliant scientist.

"I knew you would agree~" Xiao Zhi said with a forced smile, taking the initiative to shake hands.

He stood on Lugia's back the whole time, looking down at Vladali, as if to remind him... no matter how tall the other party was, he could not possibly turn the tables on him!

On his journey to Hoenn, Fladali not only failed to obtain the giant stone but also lost a key member, so you can imagine how terrible he felt at that moment.

After the Hoenn three guardians escorted the giant rock away, he was surprised to find that Ash had not left, but instead ran up to Alain.

"Alain, long time no see. Are you working for Mr. Fladari?" Ash asked knowingly.

"Yes." Ai Lan uttered a single word in a muffled voice. He might be slightly annoyed by Xiao Zhi's disdain... but when Xiao Zhi actually arrived, he found that he didn't want to communicate with him.

Just by looking at the representative's face, you could tell it wouldn't be a pleasant experience...

"Oh, what a coincidence that we meet... How are the professor and everyone at the research institute?" Ash was in high spirits, chatting with Alain about everyday things.

"You can ask the professor and the others about these things directly..."

"But I'd like to know if you actually contact the doctor frequently."

“You…” Ai Lan looked up in surprise, just in time to meet Xiao Zhi’s scrutinizing gaze.

"As far as I know, you've contacted the professor fewer than a handful of times since leaving the Blatano Institute," Ash sighed. "I remember telling you that you should communicate with the professor more when problems arise... but you didn't listen."

To prevent Alain from being easily fooled and hitting a wall, Ash even gave him a cell phone and told him to keep in touch with the professor...

Now it seems like we did all that work for nothing.

"Very well... I'll say the same thing to you as I did to Mr. Vladali... Take care of yourself."

After leaving those words, Ash ignored Alain and rode Lugia into the sky.

"All people of Hoenn, I'm back!" These were his first words to the crowd, which undoubtedly drew cheers from the entire audience.

"I've heard about what's been happening lately... Don't worry, at most one day, the waters from Hoenn to Oblibia will be completely cleared, and all shipping routes will be reopened!!"

"That's great!" "Long live the champion!!" *N

The promises that followed caused an uproar at the scene.

Xiao Zhi has such prestige that no one doubts what he says.

Moreover, a day is just a deadline... In many people's opinion, if Ash really makes a move, a few hours will be enough!

Perhaps the pirates over there are already running away in panic!

On the embankment in Kanaz, cheers rose in waves, a spectacular sight as if celebrating a major festival.

Ailan looked at Ash, who was standing on a legend, embracing a beautiful woman, and enjoying countless cheers in mid-air with a clear conscience. He had no idea how to describe his feelings at that moment, and he didn't even know how he got back to the submarine.

"Are you envious... or rather, do you want to be like him?"

"Representative?" It wasn't until Vladali's voice rang out that Ailan seemed to wake from a dream.

His most trusted representative stood beside him, silently watching the scene unfold, just as he did.

Unseen by him, Vladali's fist was clenched so tightly it trembled slightly...

“Alan, you must remember this well…” Vladali’s voice was low and somber. “This is the privilege of the strong… Even if they seize by force and do whatever they want, as long as they have a high-sounding reason, they can still be supported by the masses who are unaware of the truth…”

“Privileges…” Alan murmured to himself, recalling once again what Vladari had first told him.

To achieve your dreams, you must become the strongest!

"Representative, I want to become stronger! Charizard and I are still a long way from being the strongest, and we can't continue like this!" Alain suddenly pleaded urgently, his face full of determination.

“Understood… I will gather ten Mega Evolvers to fight you.” Vladari sized up Alain for a long time before finally nodding in agreement. “But I have a condition! If you lose even one match, I will take back your Evolution Key Stone and Mega Evolution Stone! I don’t need weaklings!”

"It is said that he has never lost a single match since his debut... so I will definitely not lose either!" Ai Lan declared with utmost solemnity.

He must become stronger to prevent today's incident from happening again...

And, protect what he considers important!

Chapter 1197 Super weapons may not be needed, but they are essential!

Moments later, on a secluded island, witnessed by the four legendary figures, the Hoenn Champion and his group of insightful individuals were engaged in a serious discussion about how to use the giant rock for a just cause…

No, I can't hold on any longer.

Steven said he had tried his best to beautify it, but Ash and the people around him looked like a group of robbers dividing up the loot.

"Mr. Daigo...Mr. Daigo?"

"Huh?" Daigo, coming to his senses, noticed that Ash was waving his hand in front of his face.

"What are your suggestions on how to deal with this boulder?" Ash asked seriously.

“My opinion…” Daigo was taken aback by the question.

With such a legendary boulder of immense significance, does one's own opinion really matter...?

"Relax a bit. Even though I'm the champion, Hoenn can't be ruled by me alone. Some things need to be discussed." Ash noticed the other's restraint and gently advised, "Besides, you're the League's investigator, and you were the first to discover the Giant Rock, so of course you have the right to offer your opinions on how to handle it."

"I just want to know... is the prophecy you mentioned to Mr. Vladari true?" Daigo asked worriedly.

This is exactly what he's been worried about!

If the prophecy is true, then this boulder is not the key to peace, but rather a terrifying time bomb!

"The prophecy is of course true. Our Ash wouldn't lie about something like this... even if the other side is hostile to us."

"But even so, there is no need to worry. As long as the boulder does not come into contact with the sundial in Hundred City, it is just a large Mega Stone."

The ones speaking were Blue and Shigeru, who had been waiting there beforehand. Daigo, of course, knew the importance of these two.

The three Kanto primary colors, who were named after Ash since their debut, are now recognized by the Sea and Land legends... Gary has even become the Kanto champion!

The two of them are essentially Ash's mouth doubles, and can fully represent Ash's attitude.

"That's roughly the situation. The prophecy sounds scary, but the boulder itself doesn't pose any risk... With our current capabilities, we can easily divide it up and use it."

Seeing that Steven didn't have any ideas for the time being, Ash made the decision directly.

This mysterious boulder is also a product of the timeline imposed by the alpaca, and its existence is in great conflict with the world history that is based on the game.

The anime production team had a perfectly good ultimate weapon, but instead they had to come up with this thing, and even made a four-episode special for it... The only reason Ash can think of is to whitewash Alain and give him more screen time.

Back to the main topic~

The giant rock itself is a pretty good bonus from the original work, and the energy it contains can even be compared to that of a first-level god. Of course, Ash will accept it without hesitation.

However, his proposed solution took Daigo, who was participating in this kind of 'spoils' for the first time, quite by surprise.

"Champion... splitting the monolith, isn't that a bit hasty?"

Honestly, such a big rock, just cut it like that... Putting aside whether it's a waste of resources, what if it explodes during the cutting process?

"I believe this is the most reasonable solution. It can not only eradicate the crisis of destruction at its source, but also dispel the unrealistic ideas of many people with ulterior motives," Xiao Zhi explained in a deep voice.

Modifying the timeline will inevitably lead to some uncontrollable anomalies.

If this were purely an anime world, the origin of this giant rock would be perfectly innocent, and Ash could easily believe it to be the source of Mega Evolution.

However, when a worldview becomes a hybrid, its origins and the various elements associated with it become much more complex.

From what Ash currently understands, besides Lysandre and Team Flare, there are at least five other forces also watching the Rock's movements!

The villainous kidnapping team in Oblibia, Team Plasma lurking in the United States, Dr. Hodaka advancing his Dream Project, the Marocomon Group in Galar, and...

Sinnoh Champion Cynthia!
