Arceus' Pirate Journey

Sunshine Flame and Root Wave flew towards Rayquaza one after another. With its flexible body, Rayquaza shuttled through the energy waves and released destructive death rays at the two Pokémon below.

Groudon and Kyogre were not completely powerless to fight back. The brief stiffness gave them an opportunity. Groudon's fire breath released a large number of magma bombs which blasted towards Rayquaza's face, and Kyogre also re-condensed the root wave.

This attack hit the bull's eye. Rayquaza, who was hit, let out a painful howl and then used a stronger destructive death ray at Kyogre.

Kyogre, who was unable to dodge, was blown away and finally crashed into Groudon.

Seeing Rayquaza showing off his power in the sky and wanting to use Kyogre, the stinky fish, to hit himself, Groudon once again used the Cliff Sword.

Not just one, but five sharp rock blades broke out from the seabed and stabbed at Rayquaza from different angles. Groudon's seemingly clumsy attack movements were actually very fast.

Several cliff swords crossed in the air, and the stone blades containing the power of the earth launched a violent explosion in mid-air.

The impact of the explosion mixed with hot rock fragments enveloped Rayquaza's body. Almost at the same time, Kyogre, who was blown away by Rayquaza, also crashed into Groudon.

Seeing this scene, the emerald light around Rayquaza became even more dazzling. After withstanding Groudon's Cliff Sword, Rayquaza's body was surrounded by air currents and rushed towards Kyogre and Groudon at high speed.

The energy in the body is concentrated at the front end of the body. This is Rayquaza's exclusive move - the finishing touch.

Chapter 1136 Your dad is about to get ashore first

"Roar!"

The emerald-like light gradually bloomed and finally merged into Rayquaza's body. Rayquaza's speed also reached its extreme. The Cliff Sword brushed past both sides of its body. No matter how violent Groudon was at this time, all its attacks missed.

The Cliff Sword can stab down the Popo or unidentified flying objects that provoke it, thus clearing the name of the ground system, but it has no way to deal with the high-speed flying Rayquaza.

Facing Kyogre's root fluctuations, Rayquaza moved up and down teasingly, spiraling forward around the root fluctuations.

A green light flashed in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, Rayquaza arrived in front of Kyogre. The power of the finishing touch burst out completely, picking up Kyogre's huge body and sending it flying. Then Rayquaza rushed towards Groudon with undiminished power.

Kyogre sank into the sea, and Groudon's body fell onto the hot lava continent behind him.

The surging waves surged towards Kaido's position, and the magma bombs splashed by Groudon's body also flew towards this side to join in the fun, but Kaido had no intention of avoiding it. Instead, he transformed into a blue dragon and rushed into the sky while guarding the barrier.

He needed a better perspective to watch the fight.

When Kaido flew high into the sky, Kyogre had already swam out from the deep sea again, and Groudon also supported himself to stand up from the lava red land, but the power in their bodies that symbolized the original return had disappeared.

With Rayquaza's finishing touch, Kyogre and Groudon were both beaten back to their original state, and their previous fighting spirit had completely dissipated.

The conflict between them did not disappear, but due to the power of Rayquaza, they were forced to stop fighting.

“Roar!” (Keep fighting! You two, fight me again and let me see! When you’ve had enough, get out of here!)

Kyogre and Groudon stared at each other for a while, as if they had agreed on the time for their next fight. Kyogre, as if provoking, flew half a circle in the sky before turning around and swimming towards the deep sea.

Groudon turned around angrily and walked away step by step. With the end of the dispute, Rayquaza also released his Mega form and planned to return to the sky.

"Rayquaza, the dragon of the sky, is responsible for maintaining the balance of the Hoenn region. Lord Arceus wants..."

It was at this time that Kaido chased after her without even listening to Shirona's words.

"Ugh, you understand me, right? Let's fight! This is the kind of fight I want!"

The battle between Groudon and Kyogre is shocking enough. From the moment they appear, the weather changes drastically. The attacks caused by their gestures are enough to change the terrain. If these two behemoths continue to fight, it is impossible to predict how serious the disaster will be.

After all, without Rayquaza's mediation, Kyogre and Groudon would destroy Hoenn, and even the continental shelf would be completely reshaped.

However, these two world-destroying creatures were defeated two by Rayquaza. Although they did not fight to the death, the weak could not force a stop to such a fight. Only the stronger side could end the fight.

It would be such a shame to let such an opponent leave without a fight.

But before Kaido could catch up, the surrounding environment suddenly shattered. When he appeared again, he had already arrived next to Arceus on the holy mountain.

......

The moment Rayquaza's figure disappeared, the live broadcast screen in front of Yamato also shattered. The dust-like ice crystals reflected the sunlight, forming a very gorgeous picture in front of Yamato, but she could not appreciate it at all.

His eyes were lifeless and there seemed to be a spirit flying above his body.

The ominous premonition eventually became a tragic reality. She saw the scene of Kaido chasing Rayquaza and heard Kaido's declaration. If Kaido got this power.

【The finishing touch: the final gossip! 】

The imaginary blow brought Yamato back to her senses, and she even came up with a name for Kaido's move.

"No, absolutely not. If I'm slower than that bastard dad, I'll be back to the time a dozen years ago."

Kaido is now a trouble for Yamato, but he is no longer a big trouble that he is powerless to resist. He has the ability to fight back. If Kaido is careless and lets her attack him, Kaido will not feel good either.

It was different more than a decade ago. At that time, she was beaten by Kaido in all aspects. How the battle would turn out depended entirely on how playful Kaido was.

She finally completed her studies, but it was not yet time for her to inherit the huge family business, so her task became to help her family during travels and prepare to attend a higher school.

Turning around, he saw that Arceus had suddenly arranged an adult remedial class for Kaido, and he was about to pass the exam.

At this moment, a Happy Egg outside the door curiously stuck half of its body in and looked at the strange Yamato curiously.

"Happy?"

It is already the end of autumn, and the temperature in Wano Country is at a comfortable and pleasant level. The golden sunlight shines into the room through the window, making it look very comfortable.

But the sunshine did not seem to bring warmth to Yamato. She seemed to be struggling with her life under the sunshine, and her kneeling figure on the ground was mixed with a hint of despair.

After a short while, Yamato stood up again, his eyes full of struggle.

"I'm going to be faster than that bastard dad! Zekrom, come on Siram, get ready, I'm going to start again!"

Having temporarily awakened her fighting spirit, she was determined to master this power first. She skillfully climbed down from the window, spread her wings of lightning and flew towards the holy mountain. She was also going to continue the trial.

As for why not running away...you have to try your best first. After you are sure you can't deal with Kaido, it's not too late to think about how to escape.

......

Arceus' decision made Yamato, who had been a little slack, become more anxious again. While she was rushing over here, the preparations for Kaido were also continuing.

"Are you ready?"

"Uh-huh-huh, it's already been prepared, so what do I need to do?"

Kaido is not a pure reckless man. Before doing something, he has to know the general method.

"Get its approval, or have it approve of you."

"It makes no difference, does it?"

“Yes, there was. You saw the battle. It’s not an exaggeration to describe it as a battle between gods.

Pokémon at this level all have their own wills. Groudon will not like someone who worships the sea, and Kyogre will not accept someone who advocates the land.

If you don't get their approval and your personality isn't compatible with yours, they won't lend you their power.

There are things that they value, and letting them recognize them is the only way to gain their recognition.”

This is also the most common way for mythical beasts and humans to establish connections - bonds.

Darkraiyin in Poplar Town and Articuno in the battle against Dara in the frontier area have similar bonds.

The method is not unique, it's just another one that basically no one can do.

Chapter 1137: There is no second option from beginning to end

"Bond...it's a word I haven't heard in a long time."

"Hachi and you get along very well, but that's because his race is inherently warlike. The same may not be true for Rayquaza."

After all, the prototype of the eight-headed dragon is the three-headed dragon, and that character is highly compatible with Kaido's warlike nature. Under Kaido's command, the stronger you are, the more attention you will get, and the eight-headed dragon also likes Kaido's character.

One is basically impossible to kill, and the other has a lot of life and can be resurrected. In this virtuous cycle, the bond between Kaido and the eight-headed dragon is also deepening.

"Not necessarily. I think he's also a warmonger."

"reason."

"Hmm, intuition. So what's the other method?"

"Another one? It's easy. Beat it up. If you can beat it up fairly, you might be able to make it accept your ideas."

This matter can be traced back to how humans in ancient times captured Pokémon and who was the first Pokémon to be captured. Archaeologists can write hundreds of papers on this matter and it would be no problem to support an entire research institute.

"The process should be similar to that of Yamato, right? Then let's get started."

"Almost the same, but there are some differences. My strength was still lacking at the beginning, and that girl Yamato is also different from you, so her trial is a special trial in the Dragon Space, and you will need a larger space."

After all, Zekrom and Lysram are brothers from the same family, so there is nothing wrong with them staying in the same dragon space.

At worst, there is still Arceus, the patriarch, so the conflict between the two dragons can be eased, and they also see something special in Yamato.

But Rayquaza is different. It is not suitable to be in the same space with the two dragons, as their regional personalities and preferred environments are different.

Arceus' stone tablets began to emerge from his body, with the dragon and blue sky stone tablets naturally located at the top.

Sixteen colors of light swirled upwards, and the sky of Wano Country seemed to be distorted at this moment. The Tanabata Bluebird and Steel Armor Crow flying in the sky instinctively hid far away.

Pokémon are not machines, they can avoid obstacles on their own, so there is no need to plan routes. The sky returned to its original state after a crack, and under the influence of Arceus' power, a special space appeared above Wano Country.

"Uh-huh, then I'll be off. This should be an exciting battle."

Kaido instinctively ignored Arceus's words of recognition. To him, fighting seemed more important than gaining power, and this process brought him special joy.

Whether or not your personalities are compatible is another matter; what’s more important is to fight first.

......

"Protest! Godfather, I protest. You are treating me differently! Why didn't you tell me what to do when I was taking the trial?"

It doesn't take too much time to fly from Onigashima to the Holy Mountain. The no-fly zone near the Holy Mountain is for people who come here for the first time. People like Pokémon and Yamato who have reached the summit several times have already exceeded this limit.

With Yamato's speed, she arrived here before Kaido's trial space was ready.

But she did not show up, but was peeking from the side, a special kind of peeking that Kaido and Arceus knew where she was, but no one discovered her.

She didn't show up when Kaido was around because she wanted to minimize any unexpected incidents. If she protested in front of Kaido, he might just fight her directly.

Kaido has been quiet for a long time, and Yamato doesn't believe that he has no conspiracy.

"You are different. Your father's personality has long been formed, and external forces cannot influence his thoughts. You were still in the formative period, and this method can help you grow.

But you didn't run to the open sea for refuge this time, you have become braver."

"Godfather, please tell me the truth, how fast can Rayquaza fly?"

Speaking of this, Yamato's expression became depressed. In the original scene, Rayquaza's strength gave her a headache, but its speed was what confused her the most.

Running freely amidst the enemy's attacks, there is even a sense of provocation in it. If Kaido had this kind of speed...

After a brief analysis, Yamato discovered a new cruel problem. Once Kaido succeeded, escape would most likely become a fantasy.

When the time comes, you can neither fight nor run away. This is torture.

"I haven't researched this, but it's probably about being able to catch up with the speed of a meteorite. Don't worry, Zekrom's ability to move at speed is still comparable to Rayquaza's, as long as you master it well enough."

Arceus has not made a comparison as to whether Rayquaza is the fastest, but if Kaido and Yamato are used as carriers, Yamato probably will not be able to escape, as those decades he has not lived in vain.

With the same bloodline, Kaido has practiced for decades longer than Yamato, so it is not easy to make up for the gap.

"So I'm trying my best. Godfather, let's discuss this quietly. How about you slow down the speed of my father's success?"

Before the training begins, Yamato is still trying to weaken Kaido.

The word "weaken" is not accurate, it should be said that she intends to slow down Kaido.

"Father always picks fights with you. You must find it troublesome. Let him fight there for a while, preferably for a year or two. This way, Father will be happy and we will be relaxed. Isn't that good?"

"Stop thinking about this and focus on growing up."

The energy wave controlled by Arceus pushed Yamato and sent her directly into the trial space. However, he did not reject Yamato's suggestion. On some level, Arceus originally intended to let Rayquaza fight Kaido instead of himself.

It is boring to repeat a mechanical action periodically. Rayquaza is strong enough, and it can also strengthen Kaido and allow yourself to relax a little.

......

At the same time, the style of Kaido's trial space is completely different from that of Yamato.

At the beginning, Yamato's first choice was to communicate. Even now, when facing Zekrom and Lysilam, she is thinking about how to improve her mouth-cannon skills and strive to master the art of mouth-cannon as soon as possible.

Kaido is different. Even though Arceus told him that communication and recognition are important, he still chose to fight.

The surrounding environment is slightly dim, and the starlight illuminates this place from different angles. It looks like outer space, but this is just the background wall. This is still a space where you can breathe and have gravity.

From time to time, meteorites would break through the outer layer and slide down with long and narrow tail flames, but those meteorites were eventually caught up by the green figure and swallowed into its stomach.

Looking at the familiar figure of Rayquaza, Kaido entered the beast form again, continuously superimposed Dragon Dance while flying, and then chased after Rayquaza along its trajectory.
