In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

"There's no mistake. Logically speaking, this cave should be correct! West Lion Seaman!"

Bakura's eyes flickered, and after thinking for a moment, he threw out Primarina's Poké Ball.

A flash of white light, and an elegant mermaid spirit appeared lying on her side in front of Bakura.

770 "West Lion Sea Man, can you sense which direction the water source is in?"

Bakura asked Nishishiki Kairen, pointing to a small lake not far ahead.

The Primarina nodded and buried its head in the ground. Primarinas are very sensitive to sound, especially the sound of flowing water.

"Master, over here."

After listening carefully for a while, West Lionhairen stood up, pointed in a direction, and said confidently.

"Very good!" Bakura's lips curled into a slight smile as he headed in the direction pointed to by Nishishiki Kairen.

After traversing back and forth, riding on the spirit's flight, Bakura finally arrived at the bottom of the cave half an hour later!

Splash splash~

On a huge high platform, Bakura and the campfire looked at the enormous waterfall in front of them.

Even after a century, the waterfall continues to rush and cascade.

"How magnificent!" The campfire looked up in surprise at the huge waterfall, which was at least twenty meters high, and the rapid flow of water made it hard to breathe.

"It is indeed spectacular, but..."

Bakura nodded, glanced down, and saw a huge lake at the bottom of the waterfall, its destination unknown.

The surrounding area is all sheer cliffs, meaning that apart from the lake and the passageway that led there, the entire bottom level is a dead end.

So my guess was wrong? That mysterious Lugia isn't here?

Bakura took out the Sea God Bell to see if there was anything unusual.

Ding-dong~

But as soon as the Sea God Bell was taken out, a clear and melodious sound rang out.

All the sounds in the entire space seemed to have stopped!

Waterfall, air, breathing!

In an instant, an extremely dense pressure swept through the entire underground space! The air seemed to thicken.

A profound sense of oppression welled up inside me.

A terrifying, dark malice relentlessly swept over everything; that intense malice was the ultimate evil!

It was an evil that was like an endless abyss, so evil that it made people want to vomit and felt their hearts pound and their hair stand on end!

The campfire's chest heaved, its eyes fixed on the distance in terror, while Bakura frowned deeply.

Because at this moment, directly in front of the two of them, or rather behind the waterfall, two points of scarlet light were vaguely visible, silently gazing at them.

Those are eyes!

Bakura was absolutely certain! Those were definitely the eyes of some creature!

After a long while, or perhaps in an instant, the crimson slowly disappeared, and it seemed as if hearing had returned to my ears.

Air, waterfalls, the sound of wind...

"hu~hu~"

The campfire bent over, clutching her chest, breathing heavily. She even gagged a few times. When those eyes appeared, she felt like she was about to suffocate.

(beea) Moreover, that intense malice made her feel nauseous and uncomfortable.

"This……"

Bakura frowned deeply, unable to understand what that spirit was.

Without a doubt, the suffocating and terrifying pressure just now was something that ordinary elves could not possess.

He is definitely at the level of a first-level god!

But is there any first-level evil god with such terrifying malice?

Yveltal, though terrifying, represents death and destruction and could not possibly possess such suffocatingly pure evil.

Hoopa? That's even more impossible.

Moreover, this is the Great Waterfall of the Whirlpool Islands, which should theoretically be Lugia's territory.

And why would the Sea God's Bell react to the owner of those eyes?

Lugia?

Bakura suddenly paused, as if he had thought of a possibility.

……

"This is it. He must have gone into the cave."

The magnificent Phoenix King stopped in front of a small island and fell into deep thought as it looked at a stone mountain on the island.

I have a feeling that this place is somewhat familiar.

"Damn it! This is that guy's sealed place!"

A huge black shadow hovered on the surface of the sea below Ho-Oh, and a low, panicked telepathic message rang out.

The sea surface churned violently, and a huge shadow sank directly into the seabed, swimming towards a certain location.

Phoenix King's eyes flashed; yes, it remembered too.

……

Meanwhile, at this moment, in the space of the largest waterfall at the bottom level.

A high-pitched, furious cry of surprise rang out.

"Meow?! What are you doing here? Get out of here right now, Meow!"

Pulling Bakura by the hair, Meng Huan roared at Bakura in a childish voice.

Dream felt its emotions were at their worst. It had just taken a nap when it was suddenly jolted awake by a terrible malice.

Then it looked around and was completely bewildered!

That Bakura actually came to that guy's sealed place!

"Stop it, stop it, don't rush me!"

Bakura frowned slightly as he looked at the flustered Meng Huan. He had never seen Meng Huan so anxious before.

"What? Don't rush, Ami! If we wake that guy up, we'll be hunted down by the Lugias, Ami!"

"That guy was obviously affected by the familiar power fluctuations," Meng Huan said anxiously.

If it really awakens, the Lugia clan will absolutely not let those who woke it get away with it.

Bakura seemed to be thinking about this. So it really is related to Lugia?

"So what exactly is inside? And why is it related to the Lugia race?"

"It's related to the Lugia mother and child, right?"

Looking at the massive, rushing waterfall before him, Bakura wasn't in a hurry to leave. Instead, he asked Mew. He had already experienced the Pokémon's overwhelming power; it was indeed terrifying, but not enough to make him flee in panic.

With Primal Groudon and his own Pokémon at hand, he can still retreat if he wants to.

This is the source of his confidence.

"You! Hmph!!"

Seeing that Bakura showed absolutely no fear, Meng Huan huffed angrily.

"Alright, alright~ Seriously, do you remember the Lugia from the Whirlpool Islands that I told you about?"

Bakura looked at Mew with a smile. After a long while, Mew pouted, hugged its tail, and spoke unhappily.

Honestly, people are clearly worried about him, but they act like the emperor isn't worried while the eunuch is.

"I know, so the big guy inside is?"

Bakura nodded. Of course he remembered that the two countries on Whirlpool Island had gone to war because of humanity’s insatiable greed and exploitation.

Lugia of Whirlpool Island, enraged, intervened in the war, unleashing lightning from the sky that split Whirlpool Island into four, ending the devastating war, and finally disappearing at the bottom of the Great Falls.

“That’s right, Ami, it’s that Lugia.”

Her dreamy, pure, and innocent eyes shimmered with a complex light as she gazed at the great waterfall.

"Luggia? No way, just now..."

Upon hearing this, Campfire was startled and instinctively couldn't believe it. How could this be?

Lugia is a legendary, gentle and kind sea goddess, and so far, all the records of Lugia are positive historical legends.

Even in the Whirlpool Islands, people today sing praises of Lugia's past benevolence, after all, it was Lugia who prevented the war.

But what was that just now?

Staring at him from those scarlet eyes, the endless evil and darkness made him feel as if he were being plunged into a deep, icy abyss, the cold seeping into his very bones!

Is that Lugia?

"Have you ever heard of power reversal, Mimi?"

Dream naturally understood why the campfire had that expression, and asked in return.

Bakura seemed to be deep in thought upon hearing this, and his power reversed...

"Lugia and Kyogre are different, my friend. Lugia's birth originated from the blessing of the sea. Inclusiveness, beauty, kindness, and gentleness are all synonyms for Lugia, my friend."

"So even though it doesn't have the water attribute, Lugia, blessed by the sea, also possesses the power to manipulate the ocean, Ami."
