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

After the fusion of the Law of Light and the essence of fairies, a benign mutation of authority occurred.

Even Mewtwo is unsure how high Diancie's potential will be once she fully constructs her Radiant Authority.

Is it really that hard to build up a Radiant Authority and fill it to 50% for Diancie to hit a 50% Zygarde?

No matter how powerful the God of Order is, or how high the position of the authority over order is.

It's not natural to be suppressed when you can't use your full strength.

As for the other party lacking martial ethics and choosing to use their full strength to bully the weak, then...

Ho-Oh was a little annoyed by Mewtwo's retort, but could only convince himself not to bother with a child.

After all, in the eyes of this seasoned legend, Mewtwo has probably not even been around for five years.

Although it seems stronger than me, it is still just a child.

Don't stoop to its level!

Ho-Oh calmed itself down and turned its back so Mewtwo wouldn't see its most beautiful feathers.

During his treatment, Su Hao also learned some extremely exciting news from the Phoenix King.

The 50% Zygarde had a core that was red and blue, representing a combination of two cores.

It's not that when they transform into Gundams, each is in a separate cockpit performing its own function; rather, their core, as the source of their power, is completely integrated together.

Because Zygarde attacked Ho-Oh without saying a word, it didn't have time to ask what was going on.

Hearing the explosive information given by the Phoenix King, Su Hao was also somewhat stunned.

What's going on? Can the emotional core and the rational core still combine?

Doesn't that mean the other party, in theory, controls all the authority over order and the power to summon all cells?

In that case, 50% is clearly not the opponent's limit...

Soon, with the help of three first-class legendary-level beings, and with the healing of Master-level Viridian Power greatly enhanced by Su Hao's support from Viridian Forest, Xerneas's condition completely stabilized, and there was no longer any possibility that he would turn back into a tree and go into slumber if things went wrong.

All that's needed now is to defeat Zygarde, and the Order that's hindering Xerneas's self-healing will crumble on its own.

Meanwhile, the battle between Zygarde and Diancie entered its most intense phase.

From Su Hao's perspective, they could clearly see that in the battlefield that had been reduced to scorched earth, countless beams of light, each comparable to a full-force attack from a Champion-level Pokémon, crisscrossed and stretched across the land, turning it into surging waves that continuously resisted the bombardment of the beams of light.

It is clear that Zygarde is gradually falling into a disadvantageous position under Diancie's enraged attack.

Su Hao knew that Diancie's ability to launch such powerful, wide-range attacks was due not only to the absolute control it had over its creations within the domain, given by the radiant aura formed by the Radiant Authority, but also to the empty shell of the Authority.

Expanding and enhancing... just like when dealing with the Iron-Faced Ninja, when used in battle, it almost irrationally and drastically amplified Diancie's firepower.

No wonder the core of rationality in the Pokémon world was so anxious when it saw the empty shell of authority clinging to Diancie.

This thing is really useful.

The empty shell of authority and the radiant authority, the enhanced radiant aura, and the experience of the Diancie queens inherited from the sacred diamonds—if any one of these were missing, Diancie could not have completely suppressed Zygarde as she does now.

However, the only one that Diancie can suppress is Zygarde in his current 50% form.

When Zygard's loud and sharp announcement resounded throughout the entire Viridian Forest, Su Hao was not surprised at all. Instead, he silently thought to himself, "He's here after all."

Endless deep green light traversed the distance, flowing into Zygarde's body like weary birds returning to their nests, and its aura began to surge at a visible speed.

Zygarde's ultimate form, or 100% form, is undoubtedly a top-tier legendary form, comparable to Rayquaza after Mega Evolution.

Once it completes its transformation, Diancie's dominance over the opponent will be instantly reversed, as easily as a large wave capsizing a small boat.

The top-tier legendary power is just that unreasonable. Apart from Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre, which top-tier legendary Pokémon doesn't exude an overwhelming sense of awe?

Even these two simpletons, when they abandon thought and pursue their instincts, exude a strong sense of pressure.

The Phoenix King beside Su Hao immediately became anxious.

It spread its phoenix wings, which were shrouded in rainbow light, and made as if it were about to take flight.

"No, we must stop Zygarde from completing his transformation!"

Once the opponent transforms into their full form, things will get really messy!

But compared to Ho-Oh's anxiety, Su Hao, Mewtwo, and Reshiram's expressions were quite calm.

"Forget it, we can't stop it from summoning cells."

Su Hao waved his hand, signaling the Phoenix King not to rush.

Phoenix King frowned. "But..."

"Don't worry, it can't transform."

Su Hao interrupted Feng Wang's speech, his gaze fixed on the distance.

At this moment, all the cells in the world that contain the power of order have flowed into Zygarde's body, and a powerful aura permeates the sky above Viridian Forest, making countless wild Pokémon unable to breathe.

—To Ho-Oh's disbelief, Zygarde, who had caused such a huge commotion, still maintained its giant cobra form despite the frighteningly bright deep green light emanating from its body.

The form that Ho-Oh feared, Zygarde's battle-ready form, did not appear.

Zygard, who was about to perform a powerful transformation in front of Carlos, was now deeply puzzled.

After repeatedly counting the cells that had returned to the body, several question marks appeared on its head.

That's not right. How come only 99% of the cells in my body contain the power of divine order?

Where did the remaining one percent go?

Chapter 1472 Assemble, Form a Team!

Zygarde is a rather peculiar Pokémon.

They are like wobblefish, formed by the aggregation of multiple individuals, and each form has a different appearance depending on the integrity of the cell aggregation.

The individuals that make up a Zygarde are divided into those who control authority, those who possess intelligence, and those who act as the "core" of the brain.

They are "cells" that have no will, completely obey the core's command, and are essentially not even considered life.

Only when both are combined can he be called Zygarde.

The number of cells far exceeds that of the core; cells can be found throughout the entire planet, but the core usually consists of only a handful of individuals.

Zygard has three forms: 10%, 50%, and 100%, each corresponding to its power output level.

Zygarde in its 100% form possesses the power to suppress and eliminate all those who disrupt the ecosystem, but only if it can successfully transform into its 100% form.

With two core elements acting as the brain's wisdom, it's inevitable that opinions will clash.

Even if a single core can barely force the cells to become 100% in a short period of time, that form not only greatly weakens the output, but also maintains that posture for a very short time.

However, now that the core of emotion has merged with the core of reason, the scattered authority of order is now solely under the control of the core of reason, so there should be no problem in transforming into the 100% form.

But unfortunately, it failed to transform.

For Zygard, given enough time, it can divide its cells indefinitely.

Based on the number of its Ziegler cells distributed globally, transforming to 1000% or 10000% is not a problem.

However, the key to transforming to 100% lies not in the Zygarde cells, but in the "cells possessing the power of the God of Order" that are their source of power.

These cells, possessing the power of order, were all placed in key locations by the Zygarde core.

But with its current authority, it should be able to recall it even if it's half a planet away.

But no matter how many times it counts, it finds that it is missing that 1% of the divine power of order.

Without being able to transform to 100%, one cannot wield the full power of the God of Order and unleash top-tier legendary combat strength.

It may seem absurd, but this is indeed the constraint that the world and Zygarde have set for themselves.

No matter how Zygarde sensed it, it couldn't detect where the missing 1% of divine power of order was; it was as if the missing portion had already disappeared from this world.

"...Alright, let's postpone this matter. I'll deal with you first, and then we can search slowly after we've taken care of the two Gods of Life."

Despite a brief moment of losing his composure, Zygarde, being the core of reason, immediately forced himself to calm down.

The previously defensive Thousand Waves surged forward with the infusion of more divine power of order, reversing its decline and rushing towards Diancie's radiant figure in the sky, fueled by Diancie's photon eruptions.

Previously, it could easily penetrate the surging waves of photons, but now it can only leave dents in the surging waves.

Even if it cannot transform into 100% of its original form, the fact remains that 99% of the divine power of order returned to Zygarde's body.

Although it is in its 50% form and cannot fully exert the power of the Order Authority, it is close to the level of Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre in terms of aura, combat strength and energy level.

No matter how strong Diancie is, it's still only a second-tier legendary class, so it's only natural that it would be suppressed by Zygarde.

The pressure on Diancie suddenly surged, and in just a moment, her Radiant Aura began to shrink under the onslaught of Aura Destruction, resembling the state Xerneas had been in.

Su Hao knew that his time as an observer had come to an end.

After handing over the three Dornos and Milotic, and giving them Xerneas, who was still unconscious, he...

Su Hao looked at Mewtwo, Reshiram, Motostoma, and Ho-Oh, whose face still showed confusion.

After the three nodded in tacit agreement, Su Hao said to Feng Wang, "Let's go, you'll know the answer soon enough."

After saying that, Su Hao leaped onto Reshiram's back, signaling Ho-Oh to follow him.

Gather everyone, it's time for a raid!

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

"Give up the resistance. Your strength will be of great use in the future. I will not pursue your disrespect towards me, as long as you make way for me!"

Looking at Diancie, who was struggling to hold on under his "volley of arrows," Zygarde spoke coldly.

Although it was somewhat unusual that Diancie didn't transform into her 100% form despite making such a big commotion, with 99% of her divine power of order restored, no matter how gifted Diancie was, she had no chance of winning at this moment.

However, considering the other party's unique power and its future usefulness, Zygarde could forgive him for the sake of long-term order and balance.

Tianxi demonstrated her defiance through her actions.

Even though its halo had been riddled with holes by a barrage of arrows, it still gritted its teeth and consumed a large amount of light energy to rebuild a band of light made of countless diamonds, pulling it toward Zygarde!

"Hmph, then I'll incapacitate you first, and then I'll deal with them!"

Seeing that Diancie was determined to stop him, Zygarde no longer held back. While destroying the radiant aura, the power of the earth began to gather.
