Poni Island.

This was an island located in the west of Alola's spiritual domain, and the island was filled with abundant aquatic resources.

The guardian deity protecting this place was Tapu Fini, who commanded purifying waters and the mist of perdition.

Legend had it that it could cross the boundary between life and death, possessing the ability to let living people and Pokémon see those who had passed away.

Five days had passed, and Roy had arrived at the third island.

Yes.

It had taken Mimikyu only four days to learn the profound skill of aura explosion.

This speed truly exceeded Roy's expectations.

But thinking about it, it was normal.

After the practice and baptism of "fluid aura," Mimikyu's comprehension of natural energy had improved to a higher level.

By extension, mastering 'Aura Explosion' became even more comfortable.

After acquiring the two major inheritances, Mimikyu's strength had progressed beyond Roy's imagination, and its ability values had jumped to the S3 stage. Additionally, it had mastered the Ghost Sage Technique, Fairy Sage Technique, and the refinement of natural energy, achieving an optimization of four times the basic energy.

Yes.

Mimikyu had become the first Pokémon on the team to reach master standard.

——Ghost + Fairy, master of dual types!

For this, Lucario, who thought it would be the 'first,' expressed strong condemnation.

Whether it was joining the team or becoming a professional, obviously I came first...

Lucario was so heartbroken it almost cried.

Roy, who was fond of his canine Pokémon, patted Lucario's head to comfort it, but he was very happy inside.

After Mimikyu came to Alola's Spiritual Realm, the improvement it gained was tremendous—it could be described as a leap forward, advancing continuously without hitting the brakes at all.

The inheritance of the Totem aura contained here corresponded perfectly to Mimikyu's talents.

Mimikyu mastering these inheritances meant that other Pokémon in Roy's team would have opportunities to master them as well.

Thinking of this, Roy, who had just set foot on Poni Island, couldn't wait to walk toward the lake in the center of the island.

The place where Totem Wishiwashi lived was in the central lake of Poni Island.

Soon, Roy met Totem Wishiwashi as he had hoped.

"Washi~"

Totem Wishiwashi lifted its head out of the water, eyeing Roy.

It was the weakest-looking Totem Pokémon Roy had ever seen, with big watery eyes as if it might cry at any moment. Its body was also extremely small, and it looked quite appetizing.

...Eating this Wishiwashi, I'd probably be half full.

Roy rubbed his stomach.

"Wishiwashi!?!" Totem Wishiwashi sensed immediately that the human before it was thinking something very dangerous. As it thought this, shadows of fish schools quickly gathered from all directions of the lake, blending together with Wishiwashi as they radiated light.

This light was somewhat similar to the light of evolution.

Within the light, Wishiwashi's body gradually grew larger and its shape changed.

After swelling to comparable size, the light finally dissipated.

What caught Roy's eyes was a massive dark blue piranha. Its ferocious appearance perfectly embodied the title of "monster of the sea."

Totem Wishiwashi explained that its inheritance was quite special, and Roy's Pokémon might not find it useful after learning it.

"How special?" Roy asked curiously.

The inheritance it possessed was the...fusion of Totem aura!

In fact, the 9,999 Wishiwashi that composed its body were all Totem Pokémon, and they were all wrapped in Totem aura.

It simply used its body as the core and merged together in the form of a "school," and under its leadership, all the Totem auras of the 9,999 Wishiwashi blended together!

"Fusion phenomenon?"

Roy stroked his chin, lost in thought.

Speaking of which, after losing its 'light,' Necrozma would also forcibly capture Solgaleo and Lunala, absorbing their 'light' for fusion.

Fusion was indeed a property of Totem aura from Necrozma's 'light.'

Thinking about it this way, the technique of Totem aura flow was the use of light's flow and gushing, and it seemed related to Necrozma's exclusive move "Photon Geyser."

Aura explosion skills were also like Ultra Necrozma's full-body explosive state...

The four inheritances created by the guardian deities were all inspired by Necrozma.

Adaptation wasn't random creation—jokes weren't nonsense.

It was all well-founded.

"It's fine, leave it to me."

Roy smiled slightly and looked at Mimikyu.

Mimikyu immediately understood, split its life force, and quickly condensed four clones around itself.

After these four clones appeared, they quickly began absorbing Nature Power, transforming it into Totem aura and enveloping their entire bodies.

Totem Wishiwashi watched this scene in shock.

...

Create clones, let the clones wrap themselves in aura, and then "fuse the aura!"

Merging with itself?

Was such an operation possible?

Totem Wishiwashi didn't know how to use the internet, otherwise it would have sensibly typed '666' in the chat.

"It's nothing special." Roy smiled slightly.

A certain unnamed prodigy from the Seventh Generation often did this kind of thing—clones absorbed magic, then merged into a three-headed, six-armed Ninetales.

Basic operation.

However, as Totem Wishiwashi had said, this technique didn't seem to work for Pokémon other than Mimikyu.

Fusion should also follow basic laws.

In other words, it was also necessary to consider compatibility between fusion subjects.

Necrozma could fuse with Solgaleo and Lunala because they were born from the same source and both held authority over "light."

Wishiwashi relied on its Schooling ability, and Mimikyu was fusing with itself.

Compatibility was very important.

Roy thought there weren't many Pokémon on his team that could fuse together.

Blastoise wanted to fly so much—it must want to merge with Salamence.

That would be...a dragon turtle with wings?

Puff.

Roy imagined it for a moment and felt it would be completely wrong.

Obviously, not realistic.

Forget it, they'd try again after everyone had mastered 'Aura Fusion.'

At the same time, another batch of uninvited guests had also arrived on Poni Island.

Sebastian and Noah Reginald stared at the region before them.

It was an empty field—nothing there.

However.

The world reflected by Sebastian's "Reveal Glass" was completely different.

What was reflected in the mirror was a huge conical mountain peak.

On the mountain peak stood a simple yet massive ruin, and at the summit was a totem resembling the sun.

"Finally found you..."

Sebastian couldn't hide his excitement and murmured in a low voice.

He spoke the name.

"—Altar of the Sunne."

A place to worship the sun god.

The entrance to the Reverse World.

A space node connected to the Ultra Space.
