160. Danger Incoming

In order to nip it in the bud, Ash would of course take as many countermeasures as possible since he already had an ominous feeling from the very beginning.

Before it happened, no one could have predicted that such a thing would happen, not even him. All he can do for now is to prepare for everything that is to come.

When he was at Mt. Quena, he was able to immediately organize Mewtwo and his clone Pokémon army to prepare for combat against Team Rocket back then, all in order to better deal with the unexpected situation they faced.

Now, he brought a even stronger lineup compared to the last time there!

The first one to appear is his Suicune!

"Suicune, let's go partner!" Ash rode on Suicune and rushed towards the giant museum that he previously visited!

Suicune is said to be the Incarnation of the North Wind, and also the Divine Beast of Water for a reason! He has such strong control over water that he can also directly walk on it like it's solid land. And in such a city like this where there is water everywhere, it is even more easier for him to maneuver.

But the sisters soon discovered Ash, his Suicune and the Latias next to him, and sent Aerodactyl and Kabutops to stop them from coming any closer to them!

Annie looked at Ash with growing possessiveness that she never showed towards anyone before, "You will all be mine soon!"

"Roar!"

The ancient aerial predator immediately flew over Ash's head and grabbed Latias with one claw. This was his primary hunting method. "The power of those claws is extraordinary, you can't stop it!" Oakley said loudly over a random speaker.

"Hmph, we'll see about that!" Ash snorted, and Suicune immediately spit out a high pressured Hydro Pump, knocking Aerodactyl away!

"There's no time to fight with this!" Now his main priority was to rush to the museum to rescue Latios, Lorenzo and Bianca, so Ash had no intention of dealing with thsi Aerodactyl personally.

So he threw out his second Poké Ball, another Ultra Ball, "Shock that piece of rock, Zapdos!"

Ash had also got Zapdos back from the Lab in which he was training with Raikou. Now besides Charizard, he only has three Flying-type Pokémon, that being his Shing Noctowl, his Shiny Gyarados and now this Zapdos.

"Zapdos, I leave the Aerodactyl and Kabutops to you to deal with!" Ash turned around and left a message to Zapdos. He then rushed forwards to the museum entrance without looking back.

"Boom!"

As soon as Ash finished speaking, thunderclouds suddenly enveloped the sky, and streaks of thunder struck at both the Aerodactyl and the Kabutops!

The Divine Bird of Thunder really does live up to his name!

"Latias, I'm here with you, you don't need to be afraid anymore." Ash looked at Latias beside him and slowly comforted her.

Hearing this, Latias nodded and increased her speed to go faster!

"He actually has a Pokémon like Zapdos? Who is this kid?" Annie and Oakley finally began to think of Ash's powers other than his pretty face, how can be able to catch two Legendary Pokémon? Who is this guy?

"Remember, he previously said that he was a Pokémon Investigator!" The blond Annie seemed to realize it in hindsight. She vaguely felt that her sister seemed to be doing something very wrong!

"If someone with evil intentions uses Soul Dew, it will cause irreparable regrets! Don't do stupid things!" Then they tied up old man and his granddaughter who kept persuading the two sisters to not do anything like what they did.

But they never took it seriously. Oakley, who was operating the device, said disdainfully, "These threats are useless to us. With this power, we can take over the world and make it our own!"

Annie looked up at her younger sister and felt that the person in front of her was now very strange compared to all the times they spent together!

"Let me try this thing again! As long as we have this power, what can those Pokémon's do to us?" Oakley looked at the operation panel in front of her with a murderous look in her eyes.

Ash had already arrived at the entrance of the large museum, standing between two stone pillars. Suddenly, a blue light flashed on his body and he looked behind him, "Latias, hurry up and get away from here!"

She saw a mysterious huge wave suddenly rising from the sea and getting ready to hit Ash where he was standing.

Latias didn't hesitate at all this time and quickly took off. She knew of Ash's ability and also knew that this amount power would not be able to cause Ash much trouble!

Then he threw out his third Poké Ball, this time it was an Heal Ball, "Stand by for battle, Gyarados!"

"Roar!"

The devilish roar belonging to his Gyarados came like a wrecking ball!

The bloody Gyarados roared to the high heavens, looking at the huge wave without any apparent concern, but there was that small amount of hidden anger in his golden eyes!

How dare they attack his favorite human?

However, when this huge wave landed in the square, it changed again and turned into streams of water, like long snakes surging towards Ash.

Ash didn't pay attention to such a little trick at all, "What a shame!"

"DOS!"

Gyarados kept roaring, and a violent hurricane gradually formed around the two of them. Those small water snakes were easily torn apart by it, and then gathered into a huge whirlpool like structure!

Without needing Ash to order him, Gyarados again roared and crashed directly into the huge wave. This was the move Waterfall that Ash had personally thought him!

With a big bang, the giant wave was shattered by Gyarados. This blow affected even Oakley who was controlling the mysterious device. The entire device was filled with a silvery white lightning, as if it was malfunctioning, which it was.

Ash didn't look back and rode his Suicune straight into the museum!

"Damn it, how could this happen? What did that kid do?" Oakley was hit by the shock of the device backfiring, and sudden changes at this moment caught her off guard!

Ash had already broken in and saw that Latios wrapped in lightning and looking very hurt.

His body was covered in bruises!

Ash no longer has the mind to deal with the two sisters kindly. They have to pay the price for what they have done. In fact, after returning to the Pokémon Center, he had already figured out the identities of these two sisters.

But before that, although the two sisters were wanted on charges of international criminals, they had only stollen gems and the likes. So Ash didn't care about these two. But he didn't expect that they would cause such a big trouble for him now.

The Soul Dew's powerful ability amplified their greed, which is something Ash could not have expected.

He threw out his fourth Poké Ball, which was an Ultra Ball, "Get ready for a blast, Raikou!"

"RAI!"

Raikou roared on the stage. As the Divine Beast of Thunder, he was completely able to ignore the electricity around Latios and bit down hard on the ring that was spinning around the injured Latios!

"Huh?" Ash frowned when he saw that this unknown object was so strong that even a blow from a Legendary Pokémon like Raikou could not break it.

"Then we'll break it down with pure violence! You know what to do, Tyranitar!" This is Ash's fifth and final Poké Ball that he had with him, "Tyranitar, Raikou, Latias, attack together towards the ring!"

BOOM!

Raikou and Latias launched an attack together from one side, while the giant beast Tyranitar punched the ring hard from the other direction. Sparks were released, and the thing was finally torn apart by his Tyranitar.

Latios was rescued, though his life force was in a decline.

Without him being inside there, the device was finally able to be stopped.

A pink light flashed in Ash's eyes, and he rescued Lorenzo and Bianca. At this time, Misty, Brock and Molly also escaped the Pokémon Center and rushed over.

Everyone gathered around the dying Latios, "Ash, can you help Latios in any way?"

"If the Soul Dew was still here with us, maybe there could have been a way!" As soon as Ash finished speaking, the purple-red Soul Dew shattered into multiple pieces!

If someone with evil intentions uses Soul Dew, the Soul Dew will become dirty and then will lose the power it holds, along with this island drowning onto the deep sea!

Without Soul Dew, the entire Alto Mare seems to have lost its life, which it really did. The water in the canal flowed back, exposing the original seabed, and the entire island was getting ready to sink to the bottom of the sea just like all that time ago.

The monster in the legend appears in its true form, and it was a huge tsunami that was ready to swallow up the whole island of Alto Mare!

Latios opened his eyes, looked at with Latias, and then both flew to the top of the tower. They wanted to stop the devil and protect the island at any and all costs!

"You two, come back!" Ash's loud roar was very clear to the two Eon Pokémon's!
