Chapter 652 Has Begun

...

Darkrai: "."

Natsu: "."

Natsu thinks if Darkrai could whistle, he probably would now.

If he hadn't painted this mural, Natsu would probably have left without knowing that Darkrai had followed him to this different space.

Even though you are an Mythical Pokémon.

Why act so recklessly?

But this is Rayquaza territory after all, so it more or less gives a little face, right?

After staring at Darkrai for a while, Natsu shook his head helplessly.

Continue.

Only when Natsu got here, unknowingly, they saw the contents of the murals all the way, and they were not far from the top of the pillar.

After that, there were no murals.

It's supposed to make room for stories that might happen later.

"Natsu, who is this?" Ono approached Natsu and asked in a low voice, her eyes trained on Darkrai.

Natsu smiled and placed his hand on her head, "Don't ask."

"Oh"

Looking at the well-behaved and innocent girl beside him, feeling the real touch in the palm of his hand, he still couldn't accept the bold conjecture that he couldn't help but let out in his mind.

Soon they finally reached the top of the pillar.

At this moment, outside, there really was a vast starry sky.

It was as if they were in outer space at this moment, but their breathing was not affected at all.

Only.

Natsu didn't see Rayquaza's silhouette when they appeared.

Natsu's brows furrowed slightly.

Was it wrong that he thought he could leave when he climbed the pillar?

Suddenly.

Darkrai looked up.

See you.

In the vast starry sky, a green silhouette was straight like an arrow, quickly crossing a long distance and coming towards them.

With a terrifying sensory aura, Natsu's back was immediately drenched in sweat.

This green giant dragon is like a green scorpion dragon lying in the sky.

Natsu felt a lot of pressure even with just a glance.

The difference between Legendary Pokemon and ordinary Pokémon is not only reflected in strength.

There is also an invisible oppression, as if they were born above the average Pokémon.

"Rayyy-!!"

Rayquaza shouted a dragon's roar in the sky.

The clouds and mist surrounding the pillar faded in a circle.

Latios, who was beside Natsu, wasn't afraid, but just stared blankly at Rayquaza, mesmerized.

Not only that, Ono also stared blankly at Rayquaza, Natsu wondered what she was thinking.

Darkrai's eyes lit up as he tried to contact Rayquaza.

Not knowing what Darkrai said, after listening to him, Rayquaza's expression did not change.

Instead, his eyes fell on Latios.

Click--

There was a slight crunching sound from Latios' body.

And in his doubts, he took out a colorful spar that had combined many ordinary spars and infinite energy.

It can be seen that it is covered with dense cracks.

As Latios moved, these cracks became denser and denser, and small pieces of spar fell off, revealing what was actually encased beneath them.

"Mega Stone?"

Natsu looked at the perfectly round rock that was left behind after the small flake fell.

The middle part is the same shape as the Mega Evolution stone that Natsu got before, but the color is different.

In Latios's hand were "leaves" intertwined with silver gray and blue.

It's the Latiosite, Mega Stone for Latios!

Natsu didn't expect that spar with infinite energy, the final result was the Mega stone!

Then Rayquaza's eyes fell on Ono.

Ono's pure and bright eyes also looked straight at Rayquaza, and felt no fear.

On the contrary, from the bottom of Ono's heart, there is actually a hint of closeness.

This feeling makes Ono feel strange.

And after staring at Ono for a while, Rayquaza showed a helpless expression and silently shook his head.

Even though it doesn't do anything.

But Rayquaza's behavior was undoubtedly a confirmation of Natsu's guess.

Is Ono really?

Then why didn't she feel it herself?

Finally.

Rayquaza's eyes fell on Natsu.

There were no emotions in his golden eyes.

Just stared at him silently.

But Natsu felt it.

The meaning in Rayquaza's eyes, why did it look like parents who spent a lot of effort to raise a girl, but ended up being warped by a random man?

It's been a long time.

That's when Natsu couldn't help but want to speak, breaking the silent atmosphere that made him feel very uncomfortable.

He saw Rayquaza turn around, and terrifying energy surged.

The dragon roar, which reverberated throughout the different spaces, was shrouded in incomparable power.

Darkrai dodged and appeared in front of Natsu.

Spreading his hands, two black holes appeared in his hands, resisting the terrifying power emitted by Rayquaza.

Soon after.

A huge crack appeared above the vast starry sky. Rayquaza swung his body and moved towards the gap and flew away.

"Follow."

Darkrai folded his arms and his voice echoed in Natsu's head.

Natsu took a deep breath.

That moment was similar to the feeling of being swallowed by Rayquaza when he first came into contact with the Jade Orb.

He seriously doubted Rayquaza would flip and swallow him again.

Because this time Rayquaza seems to have a reason.

Natsu didn't let out a sigh of relief until Rayquaza flew towards the gap.

Without hesitation, he jump onto Latios' back.

This must be the only way to go now.

Ono jumped up and hugged Latios tightly.

Previously, Natsu thought it was because of Ono's "Dragon Power" that Latios didn't refuse carrying Ono, but now it seemed different.

"Go!"

"Oss!"

Latios folded his wings, followed behind Darkrai, and moved towards the gap in the starry sky.

...

...

Above the sea outside the Hoenn Region.

Drake, who was standing on Salamence's back, stared solemnly at the surging sea in the distance, rolling up layers of waves.

On the other side of his sight, one after another scorching lava gushed out of the sea. The lava was not submerged by the ocean, but more and more, a pair of sea water obscured the tendency to become land.

sky.

That's even more dangerous.

There seemed to be a clear dividing line dividing the entire sky into two.

On the other side of the ocean waves, there was drizzle, and the scale of the rain gradually became larger and more intense.

And on the side where the Lava churned, the dark clouds gradually dissipated, and gentle sunlight shone on the sea.

However, with continuous illumination time, the temperature gets higher and higher, and the temperature of the sea water also rises, evaporating and becoming gas.

Such movements undoubtedly attracted the attention of the entire Pokémon Alliance, and even the entire world.

A large number of helicopters lingered over the surrounding sea, each "devoted" Reporter, attaching some rhetoric to the scene they saw, and embellishing it so that the listener felt like they were there.

Drake warns about the helicopter and this Reporter, but they still don't move, so he doesn't care.

"Not back yet?" Drake put the phone down slowly, sighing silently.

Natsu hadn't returned yet, but these two Pokemon couldn't resist, which made Drake's already heavy heart sink a little again.

"Drake Elite!"

In the distance.

A huge pyramid actually flew out of thin air, ignoring the influence of the weather, and came to Drake.

And at the entrance of the pyramid, stood a middle-aged man with a stern face, wearing a green military uniform.

Beside him, there was also a woman with long, wavy golden hair, wearing a long dress.

And a hip-hop youth in his twenties, his hands in his pockets and his hands in his pockets, the tufts of red hair on his bald head sticking out.

"Brandon, Glacia, Sidney."

Drake motioned for Salamence to come closer and came to the three, calling their names.

Brandon, the leader of the Battle Frontier Battle Pyramid, the other two Elite Four from Hoenn Region, Ice-Type Elite Glacia and Dark-Type Elite Sidney.

Seeing them coming, Drake relaxed a little.

At least.

That kind of strength gave him a little confidence in the two Pokémon that would recover.

"Braaavii!!"

In a high pitched roar.

It can be seen that Braviary is moving here at a very fast speed, and on Braviary's back, there is a seemingly ordinary man.

"Drake Elite, Glacia Elite, Sidney Elite and Mr. Brandon, sorry, there was a delay at home."

Seeing the person who came, Drake's face changed to a smile.

"Norman, it's hard for you, going all the way," Drake said.

Norman, Gym Leader of Petalburg City, Hoenn Region, is known as a family man.

Those who don't know think that Norman is just a Gym Trainer, but Drake and the others know that with Norman's strength, if he wants to become the Elite Four, he can do it.

He politely declined more than one invitation from the Hoenn Alliance.

No way, Norman didn't want to be too far from his family, being the Elite Four would put him in a bind.

At that time, he had to choose between the two paths of family and fame, so he simply gave up being the Elite Four, and became a Gym Leader obediently and honestly.

Even though he doesn't want to become the Elite Four for the sake of his family, Norman won't refuse once the Alliance really needs him.

By the way, the Norman family actually comes from the Johto Region. In the early years, because the Hoenn Alliance passed a Gym application for him, the whole family moved here.

Now with Norman's strength, it is estimated that the Johto Region's top officials are all crying and fainting.

The main reason is that although the Johto Region and Kanto Region have been divided into two regions, the management team is still from the Kanto Region. It is estimated that it is very troublesome to separate cleanly in a short time.

"Drake Elite, look at what you said." Norman scratched his head a little regretfully, and laughed dryly.

Norman, in the eyes of people who know him, also has an identity, a strict wife control.

cough cough.

"Is it just us?" Brandon opened his mouth and said with his most serious expression.

Drake's smile faded as well.

"Iron Elite took the rest to quell the riots created by Team Magma and Team Aqua."

"It was said before that these two organizations should be brought down more quickly. Put aside, Maxie and Archie, these two are not easy people to deal with, Groudon and Kyogre's awakening this time, they are the ones who are playing around." Glacia said in a worried tone.

Even though Glacia is an Ice-Type Elite, her temperament is the opposite of the Attributes of the Pokémon she excels at.

Now she is in charge of the Hoenn Alliance search department.

It could be said that she had the same position as Agatha in the Kanto Region, so she knew these things very well.

"It's very simple, but the Alliance doesn't want to see that kind of consumption. You've heard a lot of those people's words at the meeting." Sidney curled his lips with disdain on his face.

Sadly.

The Alliance is also not completely in the hands of the Elite Four.

And the fact that those people let Team Magma and Team Aqua go had absolutely no basis.

At least for a long time, Team Magma and Team Aqua were relatively calm.

"It is Iron Elite who will have to fight when he is old. He has applied for retirement, and he wants to return to Mauville City to become a Gym Leader for retirement." Sidney let out a small sigh.

The Hoenn region is now the Elite Four, Iron, Drake, Glacia, and Sidney.

Glacia and Sidney were relatively young, Drake was in his fifties, and Iron was older, but he still had such responsibilities.

"Someone doesn't want to be the Elite Four."

Glacia glanced at Norman next to her.

"Cough cough cough" Norman looked embarrassed.

"Actually, there are some good ones in the younger generation this time, but try to cultivate them." Drake patted Norman's shoulder, expressing understanding.

Although Norman is not the Elite Four, he brought up this incident on his own initiative, and he is still willing to take responsibility, but he does not want to be tied to the status of the Elite Four.

"Mr. Stone's son and Aiden's student?"

For these two people, Steven and Wallace, they are the Elite Four.

But that's half the story.

"Go!"

While they were communicating, Brandon shouted loudly, interrupting their content.

Several people looked serious.

See you.

Within the tumbling lava, a fiery red silhouette slowly came out, and the surrounding sea water was instantly eroded by the lava, even in the sea water, not a single drop of water could approach it.

The other side.

Amidst the swirling waves, a blue-blue Pokémon with large, wing-like fins jumped out of the water.

With his appearance, the already turbulent waters became even more violent.

Even the seaside area of ​​the Hoenn continent not far away has been eroded by sea water.

Groudon!

Kyogre!

The two Pokémon are determined opponents and foes, attacking without the slightest hesitation almost at the first sight of each other.

"Kyooogrre-!!"

Several blue energy balls appeared around Kyogre, and then during his loud roar, all the energy balls emitted blue fluctuations.

Facing Kyogre's attack, Groudon certainly didn't want to lose.

"Grouudoonn-!!"

Groudon was covered in lava, glowing a fiery red color, a huge pillar of rock encased in lava that was impaled straight into the sea, meeting Kyogre's attack.

Origin Pulse VS Precipice Blades!

bang! !

The violent energy collision caused a mushroom cloud to slowly rise.

In the aftermath of that terrifying collision, at the center where the energy gathered, the seawater completely evaporated and a vacuum appeared.

Strong and massive sea water began to flow in.

While Groudon and Kyogre move towards each other at the same time.

The Journalists who witnessed this scene, in the helicopter swaying in the wind and rain, their deft lips fell silent, only the sound of drooling remained.

Now it's not about how to broadcast the news, but how to survive after this.

But through them, at least the whole world is made aware of the seriousness of this situation.

"They have just recovered, and their strength has not yet reached the strongest state. Glacia, Sidney, you go to stop the seawater from invading the Hoenn continent, Brandon, Norman, try to stop Kyogre!"

Drake, who had the strongest identity and strength, quickly arranged the division of labor.

"Oke!"

The crowd springs into action.

And Drake rides Salamence, trying to stop Groudon.

They should try to put them to sleep again when they just wake up, otherwise.

The Hoenn region was not enough for them.

...

...

As Groudon and Kyogre recover and begin dealing with the bombs, Natsu and Ono ride Latios, following Rayquaza and Darkrai, appearing among thick clouds directly above the sea.

No, it has to be the ozone layer.

Natsu had to push the Psychic immediately to make sure they didn't suffocate.

under.

Natsu twitched the corners of his mouth as he vaguely saw a familiar and unfamiliar horror silhouette.

"Has begun,"

Even though Natsu and the Unown created Shadow Groudon to fight, it was just a fake.

The one below now, don't mess around, give it enough time and it can definitely make a land the size of the Hoenn Region, or even more.

But what happens to the original land due to the movement of the earth's crust is not what he will manage.

Ono, who has just come out of space, is curious about everything outside.

Her small eyes looked around continuously, and were finally attracted by two huge Pokemons below.

Kyogre, who flies in the sky to avoid the "Precipice Blades", and Groudon who stands in the sea and continues to stir the lava.

Ono blinked her eyes, looked at Natsu, and she said simply: "Natsu, it seems that one can't fly!"

Natsu: "."
