In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

"..." Phoenix King remained silent.

"The Three Divine Beasts..."

Bakura hesitated for a moment, then took out the Poké Balls of the three legendary beasts and threw them out.

Three white lights flashed, and the moment Suicune, Raikou, and Entei appeared, they rushed towards Ho-Oh.

"Lord Phoenix, are you alright?"

The three legendary beasts of Suicune looked anxiously at the wounded Ho-Oh, then turned around and stared warily at Bakura.

Bakura understood their 'we will never allow you to harm Lord Ho-Oh' attitude without them even having to say it.

"It's really unlikely that you can tame it like this." Bakura shook his head upon seeing this. In the eyes of the three sacred beasts, Ho-Oh's status was far too high.

This is irreplaceable, after all, it was Ho-Oh who gave them new life.

"Ho-Oh, how about we make a deal?" Bakura thought for a moment and then smiled at Ho-Oh.

"Go on," Feng Wang said, taken aback. He hadn't expected that Bakura would still be thinking of making a deal with him at this time.

"However, I'm making it clear beforehand that you don't need to mention any deals that are too outrageous."

Ho-Oh then glanced at Primal Groudon with its phoenix eyes and said to Bakura indifferently.

Although it lost to Primal Groudon, it doesn't mean it will give in to Bakura's excessive demands.

Phoenix King has principles and backbone!

"Of course, you can rest assured." Bakura smiled and didn't care. He had already tested Ho-Oh's attitude once, and he wouldn't mindlessly continue to provoke Ho-Oh.

“I will return these three sacred beasts to you, but not now. They have made a promise to me, and I will release them when it is fulfilled. This has already been agreed upon.”

Bakura raised a finger to Ho-Oh and slowly spoke.

Ho-Oh narrowed its eyes slightly and looked at the three legendary beasts. Suicune nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case.

But this promise is based on the premise that Bakura will grant them freedom at that time!

But now it seems that Bakura may have been planning to trick them from the very beginning...

Sui-kun didn't want to make a fool of himself by offering a reminder.

"Sure, as long as you don't go back on your word." Phoenix King was silent for a moment before agreeing.

As long as Bakura is willing to set the three sacred beasts free, staying a little longer is fine.

"Secondly, I hope that you, Phoenix King, can help me three times when I need it. Of course, you can refuse if it goes against your wishes."

Bakura raised his second finger and grinned at Ho-Oh.

"..."

Ho-Oh stared intently at Bakura, and if it had eyebrows, it would certainly be furrowed at that moment.

The transaction involved three acts of assistance. It may seem simple, but the scope of the assistance was quite extensive.

Can I refuse?

"Of course, you can refuse if it goes against your wishes."

Bakura answered very decisively; whether Ho-Oh would be able to refuse was another matter entirely…

"...Okay, I agree."

After much deliberation, Phoenix King agreed to the deal. Helping three times in exchange for the three sacred beasts was a worthwhile deal.

Happy transaction!

Bakura smiled; the elves in the elf world were truly too naive.

Even legends hold this truth.

He will certainly release the three sacred beasts, but he didn't say he couldn't capture them again, did he?

If Bakura can find traces of the Three Holy Beasts, capturing them again will be a piece of cake.

As for how furious Ho-Oh will be at that time, that's none of his business.

I hope you will keep your promise.

Phoenix King flapped its wings and took flight; in such a short time, its injuries had already healed somewhat.

“Of course, I’m a man of my word.” Bakura looked up at Ho-Oh and smiled faintly.

“You have a rainbow feather on your body. As long as you hold it, you can call for me, and I will come to find you.”

Ho-Oh remained noncommittal upon hearing this. It didn't like Bakura, especially Bakura's smile at this moment, which always made it feel strange.

However, one thing at a time, it will naturally keep its promise to Bakura.

"I see, I understand now."

Upon hearing Ho-Oh's words, Bakura raised an eyebrow. It was surprising that the Rainbow Feathers had such an effect on Ho-Oh.

That makes sense, though, since Rainbow Feathers are designed to summon Ho-Oh.

"Chirp~"

Phoenix King gazed at Bakura for a long time before letting out a sharp cry and disappearing into the horizon.

This day was probably not a pleasant memory for it.

However, in a sense, the three sacred beasts were redeemed, and the purpose of the trip was accomplished.

"Alright, stop looking. But what about your juniors?"

Bakura watched Ho-Oh disappear from sight, then looked at the three legendary beasts. The three of them stood like statues waiting for their husbands, their eyes fixed on the direction Ho-Oh had gone.

Bakura said irritably, "It's been three days already, and the descendants of the Three Sacred Beasts still haven't appeared."

"How rude of humans! As the messenger of Lord Ho-Oh, it is only basic courtesy to respectfully bid farewell to Lord Ho-Oh," Raikou said in a deep, muffled voice, clearly dissatisfied.

"I can sense that they will arrive soon. Humans, you have taken great care of us during this time."

Suijun looked at Bakura, but what she said surprised Bakura.

Normally, Suicune should be the one most dissatisfied with it.

"Although you forcibly subdued us, as you said, you defeated us through a proper battle."

“You haven’t been targeting us these past few days, and you didn’t try to kill Lord Feng just now. Logically speaking, we should be grateful to you.”

Sui-kun seemed to have guessed Bakura's thoughts and spoke in a deep voice.

Strictly speaking, setting aside personal opinions, Sui-kun understands perfectly well that Bakura has never been wrong.

Moreover, in the past few days, Bakura has indeed not targeted them, and they have not been given any less food.

“Interesting, easy to agree. Alright, until the juniors you’re talking about arrive, you can continue to follow behind me.”

"Now, take us to Asagi City."

Bakura looked at Suicune with great interest, as if this guy had suddenly had a flash of inspiration?

Or is it because you already know you can be free that your emotions have calmed down?

Bakura recalled Groudon, Entei, and Raikou. Now that the matter of the Whirlpool Islands was over, there was no need for him to stay there any longer.

It was already close to dusk, and they should arrive in Asagi City at night. After resting for the night, they could take a boat to Kanto the next day.

Next, Bakura and his companion arrived in Asagi City on Suicune and Latios respectively, and checked into a hotel.

The next morning, Bakura and the campfire headed to the dock, preparing to go to Kanto.

But on the dock, Bakura saw a rather familiar figure.

He had gray-blue hair, wore a sharp suit, and possessed an elegant demeanor and handsome features.

It is Daigo!

"Bakura, what a coincidence."

Daigo also saw Bakura, his eyes lit up and he waved to Bakura.

"That's quite a coincidence. What's wrong? Have you finished studying the stones from Silver Mountain?"

Bakura walked up to Daigo with a campfire and chuckled softly at him.

Thinking back now, it's been a month since the two of them arrived in Kanto on the same ship.

It's normal for Daigo to be preparing to leave Kanto.

"No, Kanto is still very interesting. I originally planned to stay in Mt. Silver for a while to explore, but I suddenly received some news from Hoenn."

Upon hearing this, Daigo couldn't help but smile, knowing full well that Bakura was teasing him.

"So you're planning to go back to Hoenn first?" Bakura asked knowingly.

"Yes, I heard it was a meteorite from outer space, but the researchers there discovered that it also showed signs of life."

"You know, I have a complete resistance to this kind of stone."

Daigo touched his nose. Aside from spirits, he was particularly interested in all kinds of stones.

And this time, that's exactly what happened.

"A meteorite with signs of life?" Campfire was taken aback. A rock with signs of life?

"Yes, so I suspect it might be some kind of elf?"

Daigo stroked his chin, speculating with great interest that it was this mysterious meteorite that had piqued his interest.

He was just about to go back to Fangyuan to take a look.

"May I ask where this meteorite was found?" Bakura's eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment's thought, he asked Daigo.
