"Great, just as I expected. We must ensure that the data is collected and be prepared to completely cut off the connection between the reverse world and the real world. We must destroy all the connection points!"

Jello was overjoyed. Having verified his research results, he had already seen the moment when his dream came true.

"I will follow your instructions."

The avatar disappeared from the screen, leaving only Jello's grim smile.

......

......

Xuefeng City, western suburbs of the city.

The destruction brought by the reversed world spread westward from the Tianguan Mountains and extended to the vicinity of Xuefeng City in a blink of an eye.

This northern city standing in the snowfield is facing an unprecedented disaster.

The snow-capped mountains and glaciers that have been with the city for many years were shattered in explosions without warning or reason. Violent avalanches began to gather from the depths of the mountains, moving eastward along the steep mountains all the way to the city.

The urban areas with higher terrain were still safe, but the suburbs in the west were suddenly exposed to extremely dangerous natural disasters.

This was a horrific disaster unprecedented in thousands of years. The unprepared Xuefeng City faced the most severe test in its history.

People who brought their families with them to seek refuge in the urban area crowded the roads, and the orderly life was suddenly disrupted. The danger of life was right behind them, like the bloody mouth of a wild beast.

Only this time, its target was not a person, but a city.

"Everyone, don't crowd! Follow the route we've marked! Be careful not to fall, and take good care of the elderly and children!"

Having just taken over as the gym leader for a short time, the childish Xiaosong stood anxiously in the middle of the road, and together with the trainers from the alliance branch, he nervously organized the evacuation of the citizens.

A steady stream of police forces and trainers from all over the country who volunteered to join in rushed from the city to clear roads and rescue the elderly and the weak. As a natural disaster was approaching, the city in crisis began to save itself in unity.

The chaotic team gradually became orderly, and the citizens of Xuefeng City, carrying the elderly and children, evacuated to the safe high ground one after another. They looked at the ice and snow pouring out from the mountains from afar and silently lamented for their homes that were about to be destroyed.

This is the hardest-hit area by the crisis, an area that even Arceus cannot fully protect. The only ones who can save them are themselves.

In other words, a powerful trainer who stepped forward.

Xiaosong, with sweat all over his forehead, stood in the sun, with his hands clasped together, gazing into the distance eagerly and expectantly.

There, there are two strong men who carry the hopes of the entire city.

......

......

At the critical moment, Kikuno, who had come here specifically to ensure the delivery of the flowers, and Kikuko, who seemed indifferent to her sister but was actually full of love for her, appeared outside the city.

The two sisters, who had not fought side by side for many years, joined hands again and prepared to launch a counterattack against the collapsing ice and rocks.

"Sister, I am really sorry for causing you trouble this time. I have put you in such a dangerous situation."

In the narrow canyon next to the city, standing quietly at the place where an avalanche must pass, the gentle and straightforward Grandma Kikuno also showed a bit of dependence and guilt in front of her sister.

Protecting the city should have been her responsibility as one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Sinnoh, but she dragged her sister who was visiting her into it.

"It's useless to say these things now. Your Sinnoh is really a troublesome place. There are so many troubles."

Kikuko, leaning on a crutch, hummed softly and walked forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Looking at the horrific natural disaster, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"And I have a feeling that my apprentice, who is even more troublesome than you, might be where the accident happened."

Kikuno looked at his sister in confusion: "Apprentice? You mean... Brother Filio? Hasn't he appeared for a long time? Sister, are you too worried about his safety and starting to fantasize?"

"It's just a hunch." Kikuko stuck her cane heavily into the snow, a little speechless about her sister who was so full of inner drama. She pointed with her finger and said, "Almost done. As usual, you go first."

Ahead, the surging ice and snow were like a terrifying tsunami, raging in the mountainous areas of the north.

"...Leave it to me." He nodded solemnly, put away his jokes, took a deep breath, and threw the Poké Ball with force, "Super Armor Rhyno, I leave it to you! Build a wall!"

"Dosse!!!"

His sturdy arms beat against his chest repeatedly. As the only champion Pokémon in Kikuno, Rhyno naturally blocked the center of the canyon and tried his best to mobilize his momentum.

Thick, ochre-colored energy surged from its body toward the ground. In an instant, rocks burst out and soared into the sky.

With dozens of thick stone pillars as the foundation, countless large and small stones fell from the cliffs on both sides amid the violent tremors, piled up between the stone pillars, and turned into a thick barrier, stretching across the front of the ice and snow.

With the might of a champion, prying open the power of nature, Sinnoh's four most senior heavenly kings went all out to raise a rock-solid barrier in the quiet canyon.

The raging avalanche hit the thick rock barrier, just like a flood hitting a dam, and the momentum came to an abrupt stop.

But this was only the first round of competition. More and more ice and snow stagnated in the canyon that almost formed a line of sky, and accumulated rapidly.

The accumulated potential energy and impact soon overwhelmed the Super Armored Rhino, and the makeshift barrier became shaky.

"Sister! I can't take it anymore!"

Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Unable to continue, Kikuno had to ask for help from his sister behind him.

"I know, shouting and yelling doesn't look like someone of my age."

With her chin raised modestly, Kikuko walked forward. Before she could reach out her hand, the Poké Ball on her waist naturally slipped off, and a round purple figure stood beside her.

"I'll leave it to you, Gengar. Use your full power of Shadow Transfer to move these things behind the stone pillars. Don't waste them."

"Geng Ga!"

Pointing at the ice and snow that was becoming thicker and denser as it was squeezed, Kikuko calmly waved her hand and Gengar disappeared into the shadows.

Before leaving, he did not forget to stick out his big tongue to lick the nervous Kikuno, making her face full of saliva, and then left with a wicked smile.

In just a moment, a dark vortex rose from under the ice and snow, and a huge amount of ice and snow was sucked into it. It rose from in front of the Super Armored Rhino like a bamboo that grows higher and higher, and leaned against the back of the stone pillar. It changed from the straw that broke the camel's back to an important pillar supporting the barrier.

Using local materials and with the increase and decrease of strength, the precarious defense line gradually became stable.

In the distant city, the people who witnessed this miracle cheered deafeningly, and the names of Kikuko and Kikuno echoed for a long time.

Only Xiaosong, who was standing at the front, was still frowning.

She was a powerful fighter who knew very well that the physical strength of the two Four Heavenly Kings had its limits, and the rock pillars that served as the cornerstone also had a limit to what they could bear.

Such a hastily constructed barrier is ultimately just a stopgap measure to resolve a temporary crisis.

......

......

While the entire Xuefeng City was in chaos and busy trying to save itself, the situation in the Gracitia flower fields far away in the mountains was even more critical.

As the origin of the disaster, the collapsed iceberg was like a giant running at high speed, rushing towards the sea of ​​flowers in an unstoppable manner.

After years of hard work, the flower fields have been developed from scratch to their current size, with countless Gracitia flowers about to bloom, but on the eve of harvest, they encountered a sudden catastrophic disaster.

Xie Mi, who had gathered here waiting for the flower to be delivered, was frightened by this completely unexpected horror scene and lost his composure, running away in panic.

The older individuals were able to remain calm, and tried to gather the inexperienced cubs and hide in safer high places.

But such people are a minority after all, and in times of war and chaos, they are inevitably powerless.

Unfortunately, the fat boy Xie Mi, who was eating snacks in Dan Liu’s cabin just now, became the unlucky guy who was separated from the group.

In its panicked escape, it soon lost track of all its companions and got lost in the flowers that were too tall and too dense for it, flying around like a headless fly.

The sound of the iceberg collapsing behind it was getting closer and closer. The little brain, which had never experienced such a thing, was in a mess and completely lost the ability to think. In a panic, it forgot to look at the road and failed to notice the cracks appearing under its feet.

As he stepped on empty air, his round body immediately lost balance and got stuck in a crack caused by geological movement.

"Meow! Meow!"

Trying hard to straighten his short limbs and fix himself in a delicate position, the terrified little guy shouted for help, but his voice was drowned out by the double cover of natural and man-made disasters.

The crack in the ground was still extending and expanding. The little guy, who was not known for his strength, found it increasingly difficult to maintain his balance. Tears as big as beans welled up in his eye sockets, dripping down "patter" and landing on the little bow on his chest.

“Mee!——”

Using all his strength, the desperate Xie Mi let out a sharp whine.

"What's going on? Where's the little fat boy?!"

At the same time, Shan Liu, who was leading the Tutai Turtle to cover the evacuation of Xie Mi and others, had a bad premonition. He looked back and found that Xie Mi, who was supposed to be following closely behind him, had disappeared.

A faint wail came from afar. With his sharp eyes, he turned his head suddenly and saw a little hedgehog trapped in the crack of the ground, with only a few traces of it vaguely visible through the gaps between the flowers and plants.

"Oh no! It's in danger, Tutai Turtle, follow me!"

The safe high slope is just in sight, and the glacier coming from the distance is almost approaching the far end of the flower field.

Without caring about his own safety or the dissuasion of the Pokémon beside him, Shan Liu shouted loudly, and together with Tortoise, he resolutely entered the danger again and rushed towards the trapped Xie Mi.

"Meow! Meow!——"

[Dan...Dan Liu! ]

The figure, not very tall, and even a little thin, came closer and closer, filling the entire sight of young Xie Mi.

Even the solid ice and huge rocks attacking from behind were ignored by it, and it just kept calling out Shan Liu's name, learning the ability of telepathy without any instruction.

"Be careful, there is danger!"

However, at the moment, Shan Liu had no time to be happy for the chubby little guy. With bloodshot eyes, he had already seen the boulders flying from the front of the glacier.

In a hurry, he looked at the turtle, suddenly pounced, stretched out his limbs, and his whole body was "thrown" into the air, passed over Xiemi's head, landed heavily on the ground, and pulled it out of the crack with all his strength.

"Puff puff……"

With a series of dull thuds, the flying rocks and broken ice landed firmly on his thin back.

Even with the help of the Tutai turtle, he was still unable to avoid being seriously injured.

The protective suit that integrated the crystallization of future technology also broke in an instant. Bright red blood flowed down and splashed onto the frightened Xie Mi, staining his flawless white body red.

“Mee! Mee!!!”

The strong smell of blood scared the little guy who had never seen blood before, and he lost his soul. Tears flowed down his face, and in a blink of an eye he was sobbing uncontrollably.

"Phew...I'm fine! This clothes is very sturdy!"

He barely stood up, hugged Xie Mi in his arms to comfort him, and listened to the sound of the iceberg collapsing getting closer and closer behind him. Knowing that he could not stay here for long, Shan Liu mustered his strength, supported the equally injured earth turtle, crossed the shattered edge of the flower field, and ran towards a safe area with all his might.

However, human power is always no match for natural disasters, not to mention Shan Liu and Tutaigui who are not good at running and are seriously injured.

The distance, which was not long to begin with, was quickly crossed by the runaway natural disaster, and in the blink of an eye it was already within reach.

The sound of the collapsing ice became clearer and clearer, and the weakness brought by the massive blood loss spread to his limbs. The only things that supported Shan Liu in running were the earnest expectations of his relatives and friends in his hometown and his obsession to find a way out with the Pokémon in his arms.

But at this moment, everything seems to have lost its meaning.

The hillside that always seemed so close in the past, where I would bask in the sun every day, now seems so far away.

The cold breath coming from behind makes people despair.

Shan Liu closed his eyes in pain, hugged the trembling Xie Mi tightly, and waited for the end of his fate.

Suddenly, a dazzling white light broke through the darkness before his eyes, making him feel that everything was bright even with his eyes closed.

"REGGIE!!!!!!"

"Boom——"

Amid the powerful roar, it seemed as if a mountain fell from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground.

Then, the sound of the glacier collapse stopped abruptly.

"Meow! Meow!——"

[It’s a big guy! A big guy! ]

Amid Xie Mi's surprised cry, Shan Liu opened his eyes against the dazzling light.

In the blurred vision, a giant as big as a mountain is blocking the glacier.

Suddenly, hundreds and thousands of sturdy ivory pigs appeared around it.

There was a crack in the iceberg in the distance, and a steady stream of reinforcements were pouring out.

A golden light curtain was released from the giant's body, transforming into a barrier as thin as a cicada's wing but indestructible, completely blocking the glacier's path, confronting the laws of nature head-on with the power of life and gods.

"Reggie... Chicas... King of the Holy Pillar?"

Standing there blankly, Shan Liu blurted out this name that only existed in textbooks.

"mum!!!"

【Run! 】

Before he could react, Xie Mi's surprise suddenly turned into fear again, and she dived into his arms.
