"What the hell was that blizzard about."
"And what the hell was up with that heat wave!!!"
Countless people screamed in their hearts.
They watched in disbelief as the figure of Articuno fell from the sky.
The trainers of the Ri Association were all dumbstruck, even Chairman Fujiwara himself was frozen in place, unable to believe what he was witnessing.
"Huh?"
The trainers from the China Association were also puzzled. Another top-tier guardian god? Really?!!!
Is this something a human could have done?!!
Yet at this moment, Fang Yuan and Dragonite didn't think they had secured victory. It wasn't that they were worried about Articuno being able to fight; Dragonite had already used its most powerful move against Articuno. Right now, Fang Yuan and Dragonite sensed that a very powerful creature was approaching from deep in the sea.
"Woooo——————"
When Articuno fell, a huge vortex suddenly formed around Lake Island, and from deep within the sea, an immensely fearsome pressure began to emerge.
At that instant, the sky grew even darker.
The next second, with a "boom," a giant water tornado formed out of nowhere, connecting the deep sea to the heavens, and within it, a deep cry like that of a whale resounded.
Woooo————
As everyone was still in shock from Dragonite overpowering Articuno, the water tornado dispersed from the inside, and a Pokemon with a silvery white body wrapped in a whirlwind and water flow spread its wings, emerging from the deep sea!!
After it appeared, it looked at the fallen Articuno, then at Dragonite, and finally, at the projection of the Sea Sound Bell in the sky.
With this sudden turn of events, many shifted their gaze.
Looking at this suddenly appeared Pokemon, many people were stunned, and then, their mouths opened even wider.
This...
This is...!!!
Fuck.
Many people's throats got stuck, words failed them, and their hearts were beyond shocked.
"The Sea God, Lugia, Rotom!!!"
The drone Rotom also shouted in surprise.
Although it was a bit smaller than a regular Lugia, there was no doubt this Pokemon was Lugia!!!
"Little Silver———"
Seeing Lugia, Youzi couldn't help but exclaim after snapping out of her daze.
Because this Lugia was not good at fighting, the Ri Association said they would help it compete for the Bell of the Sea Sound.
Compelled by their enthusiasm and Youzi's persuasion, Little Lugia agreed.
However, seeing another Pokemon getting hurt while helping it, Little Lugia felt that it couldn't rely entirely on others.
It had power too; it could fight as well.
"Wooo!!!!!!"
Little Lugia landed next to Articuno, using Mysterious Guard to heal Articuno's burns.
At that moment, many associations from different countries were stunned by this unexpected appearance of Lugia.
Then, thinking of a possibility, they sharply turned their gazes towards Chairman Fujiwara of Japan and the girl beside him.
"Fuck, it really is Lugia!!!!"
"What am I seeing."
"Oh, I must be blind; God, you must be fooling me."
"Ditto transforming into Groudon was already outrageous enough, now a real Lugia shows up!!"
"Do not tell me it's the Guardian God of Japan!"
Over on the China Preparation Zone, the Island King Shang Ren and others had never imagined that the Ri Association would actually score a Lugia.
The presidents at the main stand, like President Antonio, were completely startled, only the Kapu family and Fang Yuan remained somewhat calm.
It was just a little Lugia; they had seen bigger ones before.
"Should we continue the competition?"
Fang Yuan calmly asked, directing his question mainly at Lugia, Chairman Fujiwara, and the girl.
"Wooo——————" Lugia flapped its wings, looking at Dragonite.
Dragonite also looked surprisingly at this creature.
Hmm... It probably wasn't a relative of the owner of that Silver Feather it had come into contact with. It's okay, all good, no worries about smashing it up now.
If it used someone's help but beat up their child, that'd be really bad.
"Bwoo! (Do you want to fight?)" Dragonite looked at this little guy.
Although "little guy," its age might not even be younger than Dragonite's.
After all, Lugia are a longer-lived species.
"Little Silver says... it wants to fight."
At that moment, Priestess Yūko began to stutter. She was the only one on the scene who could hear Lugia's mind induction because it had opened its heart to her alone so far.
"I, it—" Chairman Fujiwara looked blankly at the severely injured Articuno, that Dragonite, it's a monster!!!
What the heck.
It nearly one-shotted a higher guardian god!!!
He was nearly heartbroken; how did Fang Yuan have so many top guardian gods?
But quickly, he calmed down.
Almost forgot the true strength of this Lugia.
The Sea God, the being that legend says manages the Three Divine Birds, that must be reliable, right?
Moreover, Lugia seemed very determined to win the Sea Sound Bell.
He fell silent for a moment, then loudly declared:
"The Ri Association will continue the challenge."
The bastard Doctor Fang Yuan, today the Ri Association was determined to break his winning streak.
What a way to play.
"The Ri Association continues the challenge." After drone Rotom confirmed, it immediately transported Articuno back to the Japan Preparation Zone.
Dragonite really did strike harshly, but without doing so, how could it be possible? With a team full of tough and resilient creatures, gentle hits would never break through their defense, and some like Monferno would head-on withstand attacks and fight back.
It was typically hardy itself, of course, which was also because the attacking power of its teammates was too high—speak too much of it, and tears would come.
Soon.
It evolved into Lugia VS Dragonite.
