Elf: Starts with small diamonds, then mutates into Diancie.

Lugia, who had just played on the "Storm Cyclone Trampoline" with the Emerald Eagle, lit up and was about to respond to Zapdos.

At that moment, Moltres slammed Zapdos to the side, its words sharp and sarcastic: "Get out of here! With those electrified, spiky feathers of yours that look like a hedgehog, aren't you afraid of pricking Lugia? It's a Flying-type Pokémon, you're too dangerous!"

"What, you want to fight again? I've reduced the electricity, so the spikes have softened naturally, okay? In the end, it's your flames that are more likely to burn little Lugia's beautiful white feathers, aren't they?"

"You're talking nonsense! Don't tell me I can control the flames at will, whether I want to burn things or not. Besides, this is a life-giving fire that can heal injuries. Isn't it much better than your lightning that can only be used for destruction?"

"What? You bastard, you want to fight?"

"Who's afraid of you! This time I'll beat you to a pulp!"

Just as Moltres and Zapdos were about to start fighting again, and Milotic and the other Pokémon were looking on with exasperated expressions, Lugia stepped in!

"No fighting! No fighting! I love both Zapdos and Moltres the most!"

After saying that, little Lugia came to the two stunned birds, pressed its tiny wings against them, and went straight to them.

Zapdos → (?▽?)

Oh my god, where did this little cutie come from? A little angel!

Moltres and Zapdos softened their attitudes and voices at a visible speed, seemingly having been completely won over and controlled by Lugia.

Su Hao, who had just finished the discussion and walked over, exclaimed: "...Wow, what a little Lugia! It actually managed to completely control the hot-tempered Moltres and Zapdos. It's terrifying!"

On the other side, the Fiery Roaring Tiger, who had just been playing a horse-riding game with Little Lugia, suddenly lit up.

What did it hear?

The flame of life!

.......................

Before arriving at the Moltres and Zapdos Secret Realms, Su Hao could only stay on Ice Island for the time being. Although it was cold in Frozen Bay, the blizzards from the island did not reach this area.

It's still better than Fire Island, which is full of volcanic ash, lava, and the pungent smell of sulfur, and Thunder Island, which is plagued by constant lightning and torrential rain.

Perhaps it's because Lugia is naturally very emotionally intelligent.

After a day, Su Hao had witnessed just how lovable Lugia was and how well it could handle Moltres and other ancient creatures that had lived for countless years.

Even when Articuno talks to it, its voice becomes much softer.

Su Hao was always worried about their leisurely lifestyle. For example, what if Dark Lugia came knocking on their door?

Articuno also provided its answer: these three islands were Lugia's backup plan, preventing Dark Lugia from getting close while also withstanding its attacks, making them very reliable.

Articuno also showed Su Hao the true nature of the power protecting the three islands—the Storm Wall, composed of rapidly rotating storms, a barrier created by Lugia through the exercise of his authority, isolating everything related to Dark Lugia.

Su Hao once sensed a movement sweep across his body; that was probably the wind that determined whether he was related to Dark Lugia.

Lugia's control over the storm completely exceeded Su Hao's expectations. Compared to Lugia, the skills of the Azure Eagle that amazed other trainers were like a primary school student meeting an academician.

However, such power is reasonable for a first-class legendary god.

The day after Su Hao entered the high seas secret realm, after lunch, Blazing Flame

Roaring Tiger approached Su Hao.

"What? You want to go to Fire Island with Lugia to find Moltres?"

Seeing the Incineroar and Lugia together, Su Hao's expression showed a moment of surprise.

"Crack! Crack—"

The Blazing Roaring Tiger looked pleading. After that, it went to ask Big Sister Diancie what kind of flame the Flame of Life was, and that's when it made this plan.

For it, as long as it masters the power of the flame of life, it can persist for a longer time when training the prototype of electric current propulsion and magnetic field rotation.

"But the effects of my Everlasting Power are not much less than those of the Flame of Life, are they?"

Su Hao was very dissatisfied. He knew that his Everlasting Power could also continuously heal the Blazing Roaring Tiger. He wondered if the healing effect would be as strong as his Everlasting Power at the initial level after the Blazing Roaring Tiger mastered the Flame of Life.

You can see this principle by looking at how Tiger uses the supposedly high-class intertwined power and evil aura...

Even Reshiram didn't expect his Crossing Force to be so weak.

Seeing that Su Hao seemed to disagree, the Blazing Roar Tiger became anxious and looked to Lugia for help.

Little Lugia had been completely bribed by Incineroar with most of his own food and was pleading for Incineroar's life with great effort.

Little Lugia said it would also help ask Moltres to teach Incineroar the Flame of Life, as long as Su Hao agreed to take them to Fire Island.

"...I really can't do anything with you guys."

After a moment of silence, Su Hao agreed to the Blazing Roaring Tiger's request. Perhaps in the future, after the Blazing Roaring Tiger learns the Flame of Life, its effect in the short term will not be as good as the basic Everlasting Power.

But Su Hao believes that as long as Tiger continues to work hard, these abilities will one day blossom and become the foundation of its strength.

Upon hearing this, Incineroar and Lugia's eyes lit up, and they cheered.

Su Hao's lips curled up slightly as he watched them clown around, but then his smile froze.

By the way, since Moltres can help Incineroar train, why not go find Zapdos too? Zeraora, as a newly created Mythical Pokémon, doesn't have any reliable Electric-type mentors, so now is the perfect opportunity.

Perhaps we can even get a way from Zapdos to help Zeraora resonate with the Thunderstone Slab fragments.

Chapter 836 Firebird: Excellent life energy, which makes me...

Su Hao first took the Blazing Roar Tiger and Lugia to Fire Island.

Since the three islands protected by Lugia are a single entity, there is no need to worry about being ambushed by Dark Lugia while moving between islands.

Su Hao rode the Emerald Warrior Eagle, followed by the little Lugia who could already fly, and soon landed on the crater of the giant volcano on Fire Island.

The surrounding temperature was quite high, but thankfully none of the creatures present were normal. Apart from the unpleasant smell of sulfur in the air that made you want to vomit up your leftovers, everything was fine.

Just as Su Haogang released the Blazing Roaring Tiger from the luxury sphere, the slowly flowing crimson magma in the volcano suddenly became agitated.

"Wow!!!"

Beneath the magma, a high-pitched cry rang out, and a pair of wings burning with bright flames broke through the magma, hovering directly in front of Su Hao.

This was the first time Su Hao had carefully observed the firebird. Its tail feathers and crest feathers were entirely composed of red and gold flames, especially its wings which were burning with flames. Every time the firebird flapped its wings, bright and beautiful sparks would fall.

It looks similar to the ice chips that fall when an Articuno flaps its wings.

Thinking of the special effects Articuno added to itself out of vanity, Su Hao's expression changed.

Holy crap, could Moltres have deliberately created special effects for its entrance?

I accidentally discovered the Fire God's little secret...

The flamingo was unaware of Su Hao's inner thoughts. It landed on the rocks in the crater with a clear purpose, its expression full of excitement.

Its excited voice also rang out.

[Little Lugia, what made you decide to come to Uncle and Aunt Moltres's place?]

Sure enough, Moltres appeared because it sensed Lugia's presence.

Moltres awaited Lugia's answer. Articuno, that arrogant fellow, was currently in charge of taking care of Lugia. But Lugia had come to Fire Island. Could it be that... even Lugia couldn't stand Articuno's vain, fastidious cleanliness and pretentious elegance?

Haha! Good! Good! Good!

As expected, Moltres is the most important bird in Lugia's heart...

Just as Moltres was overjoyed, Lugia's innocent voice and actions completely shattered Moltres's spirit.

"Lu~~"

Little Lugia pushed the tense-looking Incineroar in front of Moltres and told Moltres that Incineroar wanted to learn its Life Flame.

Little Lugia stared at Moltres with her innocent, big eyes, her gaze sparkling.

Moltres was taken aback at first.

Ah, so there are two Pokémon and a human here. I was so focused on Lugia that I almost didn't notice it until Lugia mentioned it.

Moltres first glanced at Su Hao, who was standing behind it with a strange expression and hadn't said a word. It remembered that this person was the one chosen by Articuno. As for that big black bird called Emerald Warrior Eagle, it seemed to have stolen some of Lugia's abilities.

As for the tiger that only needs to learn the fire of its own life...

Moltres lowered its eyes to examine Incineroar. It seemed to have good talent, but that was only true for ordinary Pokémon. Whether Incineroar could learn Life Flame remained to be seen.

If it were just Incineroar alone, Moltres would definitely not agree to teach it, but since it was Lugia's request, that's a different story.

A silence slowly spread through the air. After a short while, the flamingo opened its long beak and nodded gently.

Come with me. There's still some time before we start, so let's just kill some time.

Upon hearing this, Incineroar and Lugia's eyes lit up immediately. Lugia even excitedly went up and hugged Moltres for a while, which made Moltres look at Incineroar much more pleasing to the eye.

In any case, Lugia had indeed grown closer to him because of this incident. Since it was Incineroar that brought all of this to light, he would teach him a little more seriously.

After accepting the Blazing Roaring Tiger as a temporary apprentice, the Moltres lowered its head and looked at Su Hao, and a telepathic voice sounded.

"Human...no, I remember Articuno said your name was Su Hao. Su Hao, in action..."

Before we begin, let the Blazing Roaring Tiger train with me. I will be very strict, so please be prepared.

Su Hao nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, then raised his hand and condensed three balls of life energy the size of basketballs. He smiled at the Firebird and said, "God of Fire, this is a small token of my appreciation. You may use two of these balls as you see fit, and please use the remaining one to heal the Blazing Roaring Tiger."

The flamingo was taken aback. To be honest, after reaching their current level, they wanted very little.
