Elf: Start with small diamonds, then mutate into Diancie!

Now, not only does the White Eagle Alliance have a certain reserve of Z-Crystals and Z-Bracelets, but the Carlisle family, led by David Carlisle himself, is also showing signs of surpassing the other families.

However, the only trainers who can benefit from the Eagle Union are those who lack access to resources and whose own league no longer has an island king.

The four island kings came from China, the White Eagle, India, and a small country.

Theoretically speaking, even the White Eagle Alliance couldn't stop the three island kings from entering the Sanctuary of the Islands, let alone profit from it.

—What they did had already caused a lot of dissatisfaction. If it escalated to the island's guardian deity, it might really become a complete disaster.

Taking advantage of this, the day before the Legend Cup semi-finals, Su Hao and Xing Tiandao met up and swaggered through the White Eagle League's blockade, heading to the Sanctuary in the Divided Islands in the sea amidst the envious expressions of the trainers lining up to be lambs to the slaughter.

Although Su Hao himself could enter the Sacred Domain of the Islands without anyone noticing, he deliberately chose not to do so this time.

The point is to openly and honestly tell the White Eagle Alliance that I've arrived ahead of schedule, and let them use whatever tricks they have up their sleeves.

Previously, the relationship between the two sides had eased somewhat because the White Eagle Alliance rejected the cooperation invitation from the Ultimate World's spies sent to Blue Star, and even provided some conveniences to the Divine Continent Alliance.

However, the Groudon incident led the Sakura Kingdom Alliance, a subordinate of the Eagle Union, to seek help and ultimately choose to accept the protection of the Divine Continent Alliance, becoming part of the Divine Continent Alliance and enjoying a certain degree of autonomy under the rules set by the Divine Continent Alliance, thus becoming the Sakura Province.

This is no different from slapping the White Eagle Alliance in the face. Coupled with the previous appearance of Regichikas, the White Eagle Alliance's attitude suddenly hardened again, and now the relationship with the Divine Continent Alliance has become somewhat tense again.

Su Hao's arrival naturally attracted the attention of the White Eagle Alliance.

The message was passed through layers of communication and finally reached David Carlisle, who was on Melemele Island undergoing final training and adjustments in preparation for tomorrow's semi-final.

Upon hearing that the other party had already headed to Akala Island under Xing Tiandao's guidance, David Carlisle's expression changed slightly.

"Why did he come early...? No, that's not something I should be thinking about right now."

David Carlisle's biggest concern right now is that Tapu Koko said not long ago that if his battle with Su Hao doesn't ignite its fighting spirit, it has no intention of participating.

Previously, no matter what opponent he encountered, Tapu Koko would always eagerly step forward to fight.

It truly deserves its title as the most warlike of the island's guardian deities, achieving victory against any opponent. Even the renowned North Wind Messenger, Water Lord, from the Divine Continent Alliance, was defeated by its offensive.

But this time, Tapu Koko changed its mind, and its opponent was none other than... the ace Diancie, who could even defeat two Master-level Pokémon like Su Hao.

Even though the many benefits he gained in the Sanctuary of the Islands over the past six months have boosted his strength to a new level, David Carlisle is still unsure how to fight Su Hao in a full-scale battle, and how to make it exciting enough to pique Tapu Koko's interest in joining the fight.

If only the Three Cloud Gods could fight...

Because of the incident at Meloetta, the three cloud gods have not shown up at all recently, let alone been sent into battle.

"Damn it... what should I do?"

With his hair haphazardly pulled at, David Carlisle, who appears aloof and superior to others, is now so worried that he's losing his hair.

"Pfft..."

Hidden well within the canopy of a large tree, Tapu Koko is secretly observing the island king he has chosen.

Tapu Koko clearly understood the king of this island. After all, although it was good at fighting, it was not a muscle-bound idiot with a smooth cerebral cortex whose mind was only focused on fighting.

David Carlisle is a man who will stop at nothing to pursue power and status because his desires never seem to be satisfied.

Tapu Koko doesn't mind this; rather, it's this desire that drives people to constantly pursue power, which is quite in line with its combat aesthetics.

After all, from the very beginning, both sides were exploiting each other.

The Tapu need to use the Island King as a medium to publicize their existence to the world.

The island kings, in turn, would use their legacy to enhance their power.

Thanks to David Carlisle's efforts, Mela Mela Island achieved the best results among the four islands.

Tapu Koko was very satisfied, and since he was also itching to join the fray, he decided to step in and lend a hand.

But this time the situation is different. David Carlisle's opponent is that person, and as the guardians of Tapu, they cannot be enemies with that person.

So Tapu Koko set conditions, but for David Carlisle's power, these conditions might be too harsh.

But that doesn't matter.

Even if David Carlisle can't deliver a thrilling fight that pleases him, it doesn't matter. From the beginning, Tapu Koko said that the right to interpret whether or not something pleases him belongs entirely to himself.

Su Hao's overwhelming power over his opponent can also ignite his fighting spirit, can't it?

Chapter 1454 Tapu Lele: Minion Hits ~ Minion Psychic ~

After passing through the White Eagle Alliance's defenses, Su Hao and Xing Tiandao did not linger and headed directly towards Akara Island.

Xing Tiandao was held around the waist by Gardevoir and carried by psychic power at a constant speed.

But his gaze remained fixed on Su Hao's direction, a hint of envy easily noticeable in his eyes.

Standing in the air like you're just walking is so cool! It feels much more stylish than horizontal flight.

Despite his appearance as a mature social elite, Xing Tiandao's interests in these matters are no different from those of a young person.

So Xing Tiandao couldn't help but ask, "That's amazing, how did you do that?"

He still remembered that half a year ago, Su Hao couldn't even bend a spoon when it came to superpowers. How could he do something like this now?

When suddenly asked this question, Su Hao paused, then said sincerely, "Although I have the meditation method you gave me, my superpowers have not actually improved much."

"As for how it is done... it mainly depends on the individual's level of control over their superpowers."

"Look at this."

Under Xing Tiandao's seemingly confused expression, Su Hao lifted his foot again. Xing Tiandao looked in that direction and discovered that where Su Hao had just stood, there was a thin, cicada-wing-like plane of psychic energy, the size of which was just right to fit the sole of Su Hao's shoe.

"........This is."

Having come from a family of superpowered individuals, Xing Tiandao quickly grasped the principle.

This guy actually calculates his landing point in advance, gathers a foothold with psychic energy that can support the weight of an adult, and then repeats the process?

Putting aside how difficult it is to do this, and how absurdly precise the control of superpowers is required.

However, this method does allow superpowered individuals like Su Hao, who have smaller water outlets but larger reserves of spiritual energy, to "fly" on their own!

Xing Tiandao, who still needs his Gardevoir's help to fly, could theoretically do the same, but it was too difficult, and he had no confidence at all.

Ultimately, only a freak like Su Hao could come up with this idea and pull it off.

Having received an answer that was difficult to replicate, Xing Tiandao could only remain speechless, marveling inwardly at the boundless imagination of Su Hao's ideas.

Soon, Akala Island came into view.

When Su Hao landed steadily, unlike the last time he came to the Sanctuary of the Islands, Tapu Lele, with her mischievous nature, chose to hide, and Su Hao had to ask Diancie to do something big to attract all the Tapus before she would show herself.

This time, Tapu Lele made her appearance the moment Su Hao landed on the island.

It moved closer to Su Hao and looked him up and down, seemingly searching for something.

Beside him, Xing Tiandao respectfully said, "Respected island guardian, we have also returned."

"Plop~ Butterfly~"

Tapu Lele gave a perfunctory nod to the voice of the island king she had chosen, then waved her hand dismissively.

Okay~ Go play somewhere else~

Remember to find three pieces of kelp that have the same texture, height, width, and curvature as required.

Ever since discovering the strange ability of the island king he chose to find similar things, Tapu Lele has been trying to test the limits of his abilities. For the past six months, he has used various reasons to drive Xing Tiandao to find similar things, and today is no exception.

"Okay~"

With Gardevoir looking speechless, Xing Tiandao happily accepted the mission. After saying goodbye to Su Hao, he set off towards the sea area where seaweed grew on the edge of the island.

With the troublesome person gone, Tapu Lele circled around Su Hao again and again without any restraint.

Just as Su Hao, full of questions, was about to ask what it was up to, Tapu Lele's telepathic message, with its slightly raised tone, came through.

"Hey hey hey~ How come half a year has passed and my superpower strength hasn't increased at all?"

"These lowly superpowered individuals are really useless. Did you come here today with a long face begging me to continue using your scale powder to assist your training?"

Su Hao, his face dark with anger: "........."

Well, I really want to beat up Kapu Die Die.

Fortunately, Tapu Lele knew when to stop after satisfying her perverse pleasures.

Otherwise, Su Hao felt he would probably let the motorcycle lizard come out and give it a good electrotherapy treatment.

"That's enough. I still have some questions for you."

Su Hao naturally had his own reasons for arriving at Akala Island ahead of time.

The primary purpose was to inquire about the Tapu's opinion on the sudden and complete closure of the Ultra Cave.

Upon hearing the mention of the Ultimate Hole, Tapu Lele, who had been pondering how to play a prank on Su Hao, became more serious and began to share what she knew.

"Chocho~" (The Ultimate Hole was forcibly closed by the internal forces of that world. But we don't know exactly who did it or how they did it~)

The Kapus had held countless meetings regarding this unusual situation.

However, due to the extremely limited information, the only possible conclusion was to wait and see for the time being.

Hearing Tapu Lele's answer, Su Hao could only accept it helplessly.

As for whether Tapu Lele would have a mischievous urge to lie to him... Su Hao believed that it would at least not joke about such a serious matter.

Su Hao then asked Tapu Lele about the origin of the light energy in the Sun and Moon Altars, whether they knew the Sun God and the Moon God, and whether they knew that there were their offspring now stranded on Earth.

Tapu Lele's answer was always "yes," meaning she knew all about these secrets.

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

The next day.

Shenzhou Alliance, outside of Everlasting Forest.

"So this is the legendary Viridian Forest, the world's largest forest. It really is vast!"

The girl's cheerful voice rang out at the edge of the forest; to the uninitiated, it would seem as if she were on a picnic.

While Jiang Yueluo was training with Hua Beibei and Shan Shoulong at the edge of the forest, accompanied by her teacher, she noticed the girl's back and couldn't help but tug at the sleeve of her teacher, Li Qingyi.

"Teacher, is that a foreigner?"

Li Qingyi looked in the direction Jiang Yueluo was pointing and frowned when she saw the girl's golden hair, which shone slightly in the dappled sunlight in the forest.
