Chapter 150

Raiden Shogun has long since ceased to need the Gnosis.

She has developed a technique to combat wear and tear.

As for Yae Miko, she is a yokai, not a demon. The Gnosis is not something she places high importance on.

So, exchanging it for an Ultra Beast…

Do you still need to think about it?

"Good!!" Yae Miko agreed quickly.

Takumi smiled, "Then, there is an additional condition. Please cooperate with me in any future experiments that require you and your Kartana."

"What a question!"

In exchange for Raiden Shogun's Gnosis, Takumi feels that this is not a loss. The Gnosis must be a super high-level resource.

However, the imprint of Celestia on it is too deep, and Takumi cannot keep it for himself.

No. Aren't there still the Fatui?

The Fatui are rich and have a lot of resources.

They want to gather the Gnoses to come up with some plan to fight against Celestia's laws.

Let's exchange it for many high-level resources!

Soon, Takumi brought out from the breeding room a strange Pokémon that looked like a paper figure.

It was about the same height as Meltan. It was thin and flat, and a gust of wind could blow it away.

But… when this Kartana followed Takumi out—the three mortal rulers present, Raiden Ei, Venti, and Zhongli—all noticed the strong dangerous aura of this light and small Pokémon!

"Gulp~~"

Yae Miko is also an experienced yokai.

Seeing Takumi leading Kartana in front of her, she swallowed hard, with some shock and panic in her eyes.

A small paper figure shikigami…

Like a murderous weapon.

A sharp aura hit her face. Even the aura seemed capable of cutting through space.

A drop of cold sweat ran across Yae Miko's forehead as she used her Pokédex to scan and obtain information:

**"Kartana (Ultra Beast), Grass-type and Steel-type, Drawn Sword Pokémon**

**Level: Lv.99**

**Ability: Beast Boost**

**Moves: Sacred Sword, Swords Dance, Leaf Blade, Air Slash...**

**From its paper-thin body, it has the sharpness of a blade that can cut through anything."**

"Level 99!!"

"Too, too strong?" Yae Miko was stunned.

The sharp pressure was palpable.

Through the live broadcast footage, many viewers expressed astonishment.

Takumi was also secretly shocked by this aura.

Sure enough, it was a familiar setting.

Every time an Ultra Beast has just come to the material plane from Ultra Space, it carries a unique aura.

You know, in fact, Cosmog also belongs to the Ultra Beasts, and its evolved forms, Lunala and Solgaleo, do too.

However, in the original work, they had been in the Pokémon world for a long time, and the Ultra Beast aura had dissipated.

At this moment, the Kartana drawn by Yae Miko was obviously directly brought out from Ultra Space by the system and forcibly contracted with Yae Miko.

Takumi pointed at the fox and said, "From now on, this will be your trainer."

Suddenly, Kartana stopped. It looked up at Yae Miko.

It clearly had no eyes.

It was just a life folded out of paper. However, both Yae Miko and the bystanders around her could feel it—Kartana could feel it.

The Ultra Beast was carefully examining Yae Miko.

"Ha…"

More sweat poured out of Yae Miko's forehead.

Hold on!

Raiden, save me!

Being stared at by a "mythical beast" is so intense!

After a long while, when Yae Miko's face became increasingly pale, her whole body seemed frozen by ice, Kartana finally withdrew its sharp gaze.

It nodded slowly to Yae Miko.

It seemed to be announcing arrogantly—

You resisted the pressure of my aura.

Now, you are barely qualified to be my trainer.

"Phew—"

As if saved from drowning, Yae Miko took a deep breath.

This scene—

The three ruling gods watching were all thoughtful.

It seems…

For most people, Drawing a mythical beast in its complete form is indeed lucky!

But problems also follow.

How do I get a mythical beast to acknowledge me as a trainer?

"The strong survive!" Zhongli narrowed his eyes slightly and said.

Takumi was also very happy, of course, that Yae Miko was initially acknowledged by Kartana.

You must know that the "contract" in his store cannot force a Pokémon to recognize anyone.

"Kartana," he spoke up, looking eager to try.

"Next, I need you to cooperate with me— Do a combat experiment! Test the actual combat power of your Ultra Beast!"

Kartana heard the words and turned its eyes to Yae Miko. After seeing its trainer nod, it also nodded to Takumi.

"OK~"

Takumi put down his business in the store and glanced at everyone:

"If you didn't draw the Pokémon you wanted, you can continue to draw. I'm going out now for an experimental battle. Of course, If you are interested, you can come and watch."

Takumi brought Jirachi, Meloetta, and Cresselia with him, and they followed with a Pokédex.

Thus,

Inazuma's Pokémon House store experienced a strange shutdown on the first day of business.

Takumi, the store manager, was just trying to slack off.

The branch manager, Yoimiya, who was appointed by Takumi, didn't care much and rushed out excitedly with the crowd.

Within a few minutes, the streets of Hanamizaka formed a crowd usually seen during festivals.

Countless Inazuma citizens enthusiastically flocked to the covered bridge with a wide view.

Outside Inazuma Castle,

near the sea—

within people's sight—

around Takumi, there were many legendary Pokémon floating in the air.

Yae Miko was still a little confused, her whole body numb and stunned. Kartana was suspended beside her.

No matter how strong the wind blew on the sea, the paper-figure-like body stood still.

On a small island nearby, there were famous characters standing—

Raiden Ei, Zhongli, and Venti among them.

Venti blew the sea breeze and covered his bard hat:

"Hey, the wind and waves in the Inazuma sea area are particularly violent today~"

As soon as he finished speaking—

Yin!!

A huge sea beast suddenly broke out of the water.

As soon as it appeared, lightning and thunder struck the offshore area of Inazuma City, and it began to rain heavily.

Moreover, this sea beast lightly flapped its white wings and flew away from the sea.

"Yo, Lugia. It seems that you are living quite comfortably outside."

Takumi smiled and hugged the beast head that Lugia had plunged into his arms.

He happily stared at Lugia's growing body.

The once frail young Sea Guardian was now three or four meters long.

He clicked open the Pokédex.

The level had quietly increased to Lv.50!

Takumi nodded in satisfaction.

Thumbs up for his free-range decision.

There were also many sea beasts and monsters in the ocean of Teyvat.

Releasing Lugia to fend for itself, foraging and growing stronger, was far better than keeping it as a pet.

The scene where Lugia put its head into Takumi's arms amidst the lightning and thunder stunned the people of Inazuma.

Even the two live broadcast rooms—

viewers were shocked for a while and then posted comments full of question marks.

"Damn, this is so cute! Don't tell me that the nightclub manager Takumi has another legendary Pokémon!"

"This legendary Pokémon is so beautiful, woo woo woo…"

"Isn't this too amazing? There were lightning, thunder, and huge waves. I am sure that the authority and domain of this mythical beast are related to the ocean!"

"Quick, right now! I want to see the post 'Detailed Analysis of Takumi Nightclub Manager's Fourth Legendary Pokémon' on the Pokémon Era official website forum!"

Lugia…

Except for Zhongli, who knew its origin, no one else even knew when Takumi conquered it.

Today's highlight!

Takumi wasn't here to show off Lugia, but to test the Ultra Beast's combat power!

"Lugia." Takumi patted the beast's head in his arms and whispered.

"You are the first to appear and fight like a mythical beast. Use your power and divine authority, understand?" Lugia nodded.

Groan!

It flapped its wings and flew out.

At the same time, Kartana also took a few steps forward in the air.

"Gulp~" Yae Miko couldn't help but feel nervous.

On one hand, Lugia on the opposite side was completely releasing its divine power and full of oppression.

On the other hand, she heard Takumi's instructions to Lugia.

Fighting like a mythical beast?

Power and divine authority??

Just as Yae Miko's imagination was running wild—

Groan!!

Lugia raised its head and flapped its wings.

Rumble…

A blue tsunami, the likes of which had never been seen before, was reflected in Yae Miko's eyes.

"Crack!"

Dark clouds, so dense that they could not be dispersed, covered the entire Inazuma Sea area, and all six islands were beneath the dark clouds.

It is said that if Lugia flaps its wings, it will trigger a storm that lasts for forty days.

The kind of divine power described in the Pokédex was now manifesting in a young Lugia.

Cresselia, who controlled the live broadcast camera, used her psychic powers to move the camera instantly and fly very high—a high-altitude shot, like an aerial view.

Then, the tsunami in the sea below appeared on the broadcast screen.

Countless viewers were shocked, with terror on their faces.

Terrifying words subconsciously popped up in their minds to describe the current scene.

Apocalyptic!

Divine power beyond comprehension!

...

On Narukami Island, in the guarded forest—

there is a tribe of tanuki demons living here.

There is also a big tanuki demon named Ioroi who is sealed here.

When Lugia flapped its wings and called forth a tsunami, the huge stone statue of the tanuki demon "clicked," and the frightened murmur of Ioroi could be heard:

"It's over! It's over!

Which evil spirit did Inazuma provoke?"

...

One of the six islands of Inazuma—Watatsumi Island.

It is also the home of the Watatsumi people who believe in the serpent god Orobashi.

The Sangonomiya witnessed the sudden hurricanes, heavy rains, and lightning from the outside world.

Kokomi and Gorou, who were discussing matters in the palace gate square, looked at the Eye of the Storm Vortex and were suddenly stunned.

Watatsumi Island is located on the westernmost side of the Inazuma Sea.

Narukami Island is on the northeasternmost side.

They are separated by countless sea miles—

yet, you can still clearly see the rising tsunami and huge waves!

Hiss…

Kokomi and Gorou looked at each other in shock.

How high is this huge wave?

If it hits, the entire Narukami Island could be overturned, swallowed, and blown to pieces, right?
