—------------------—

As Mammon said, the battle unfolded as expected. Even though Eternatus had accumulated three thousand years of experience and knew that its Dragon-type and Poison-type moves were useless against the Sword and Shield Kings, it wouldn't force them out, giving the two kings an opening.

But...

Without its Good at moves and only able to use Flamethrower, how could Eternatus defeat the Sword and Shield Kings?

After Eternamaxing, Eternatus could truly be said to be the Pokémon with the most abundant stamina in the Pokémon world.

It had far more stamina than Zygarde's Complete Forme, and unlike Zygarde's Complete Forme, Eternatus Eternamax's defense was astonishingly high.

But it was useless!

It could only take a beating, yet it had no effective means of offense against the Sword and Shield Kings. What good was that?

Even Sword King Zacian's Behemoth Blade, when it landed on Eternatus, could only be described as barely painful.

But these two dogs could still grind it down to death.

Unable to change the tide of battle, only able to sorrowfully wait for the Sword King and Shield King to slowly beat it to death, this despair was truly hard for Eternatus to accept.

Finally, what doesn't die in silence, explodes in silence.

Eternatus erupted!

"Roar~!"

The angry dragon's roar of Eternatus Eternamax echoed through the sky, its colossal claw raised high, scarlet energy continuously condensing.

The entire world seemed to fall silent at this moment, with only six points of scarlet light continuously flashing.

Beneath the dim black vortex, those six red dots were like six suns!

An incomparable sense of oppression suddenly descended, making Chairman Rose and the others feel a chilling coldness throughout their bodies.

They would die!!

Yes, if they were hit by this move, they would definitely die!

Not even bones would remain.

Without a doubt, Eternatus was going all out!

"Damn scourge!"

Sword King Zacian's eyes were icy cold, and the fairy king's sword in its mouth once again transformed into a greatsword, charging towards Eternatus.

Shield King Zamazenta did the same, a red giant shield phantom condensing in front of it, its signature move, Behemoth Bash!

"Aren't you two supposed to protect this land? Then come and see! What can you protect!!"

Eternatus's low telepathic voice echoed in the ears of the Sword and Shield Kings.

It knew, it knew everything!

These two dogs were fighting it for the sake of this land and the lives on it.

But Eternatus wanted them to know that if it wished, they couldn't protect anything at all!

Sword King Zacian's eyes were as cold as ice, and it accelerated again, charging towards Eternatus's massive claw.

The deathly red light, like an apocalypse, finally reached its peak, and Eternatus's colossal claw spread wide.

Six enormous, terrifying scarlet beams of light shot down, aimed directly at Motostoke City below.

Eternatus's strongest signature move—Eternabeam!

This was the most powerful Dragon-type move, not counting special moves like Z-Moves, because Eternabeam had a power of 160!

Normally, except for a few special moves, the maximum move power was 150, which was the limit.

Eternabeam was one of the few moves that broke this limit.

For Eternatus, using Eternabeam was quite a burden; it would consume a large amount of its energy and wouldn't have much effect on these two dogs.

But Eternatus couldn't care less about that now!

At this moment, the scarlet light was like a light of apocalypse, six enormous scarlet beams of light descended from the sky, carrying an irresistible terrifying power towards the ground.

Sword King Zacian, biting the fairy king's sword, directly met one of the Eternabeams head-on.

It had to block this Eternabeam.

Just as Eternatus said, the reason they fought Eternatus to the death was to protect this land of Galar.

And if this Eternabeam were to hit the ground, this human city would probably not be able to remain.

Boom!

Behemoth Blade heavily struck the Eternabeam, and Behemoth Blade exploded violently, golden chaotic energy surging forth.

Extremely powerful airwaves spread out in the form of shockwaves, and the two energies, golden and red, furiously clashed.

And Sword King Zacian's Behemoth Blade was indeed powerful, actually managing to withstand the impact of this Eternabeam.

However, Sword King Zacian's heart was heavy; even it could only resist one Eternabeam.

But there were six Eternabeams!

On the other side, Shield King Zamazenta, also charging towards another Eternabeam, did not withstand the impact of the Eternabeam as forcefully as Sword King Zacian.

Behemoth Bash was directly shattered by the Eternabeam, but fortunately, this Eternabeam exploded on Shield King Zamazenta.

Although Shield King Zamazenta was heavily blasted away, Shield King Zamazenta had high defense and resistance to Dragon-type, so the damage wouldn't be too high.

But even so, there were still four Eternabeams.

"Tsk~ Calyrex, Terapagos."

Mammon couldn't help but click his tongue at this spectacular scene and called out to the two Pokémon in front of him.

"Spectrier."

Black Steed King immediately understood Mammon's meaning, slowly raised its right arm, and Spectrier let out a low whinny, black ripples spreading out from beneath Spectrier.

Ghost-type's Spirit Break!

Countless ghostly black spirits surged out, meeting one of the Eternabeams.

And Stellar Tera Terapagos also fired a large number of Stellar Bursts, shooting towards another Eternabeam.

Boom boom boom!

Incredibly loud roars reverberated incessantly, and terrifying storms raged wildly, enveloping the entire Motostoke City in a whirlwind of air currents.

Fortunately, Mammon had released Dark Mewtwo in advance to protect himself and the others.

However, this scene of various energies wildly erupting and colliding, like an apocalypse, still shocked Chairman Rose and the others.

Too terrifying!

But even so, two Eternabeams still landed in the end, with terrifying energy wildly exploding and impacting.

The ground trembled as if there was an Earthquake, and even from Mammon's direction, they could see the scarlet mushroom cloud.

"It seems Chairman Rose, you'll have to rebuild Motostoke City. That area probably won't even have land left."

Mammon still had the leisure to tease Chairman Rose.

"It's okay, this is already a very good outcome. Without you, Mammon, it probably wouldn't have been just like this."

Chairman Rose was actually still a bit shaken, of course, not afraid of the land not being preserved, but of the rampaging Eternatus.

As for Motostoke City being destroyed, it was completely within budget. Even if Eternatus didn't demolish it, when Motostoke City was rebuilt, those half-damaged buildings would have to be demolished anyway.

Hmm, Chairman Rose was not short of money.

Repairing and patching? It would be more convenient to just level everything and rebuild.

"The Chairman is right, thank goodness for you today, Mammon." Leon also had cold sweat trickling down his forehead as he looked at the terrifying scarlet light.

He couldn't block that kind of attack.

"You're too kind, I also received payment."

Mammon smiled happily, clearly very satisfied with Eternatus Eternamax's Eternabeam just now.

Such power was truly delightful.

Mammon was now very certain that after Eternamaxing, Eternatus's combat power was definitely among the top few of the top-tier legendary Pokémon.

"The battle probably has no suspense. Now it depends on how long it takes Zacian and the others to defeat Eternatus."

Mammon looked up into the sky again and indeed saw Sword King Zacian approaching Eternatus again, wildly slashing with its sword.

Clearly, Eternatus's actions just now had greatly angered Sword King Zacian.

"Eternatus's defense is quite excellent. How many times have Zacian and the others hit it already?"

Raihan couldn't help but click his tongue.

"After Eternamaxing, Eternatus's stamina and defense are its most outstanding features." Mammon nodded.

However, Eternatus, being merely resistant to attacks but lacking effective counterattack methods, was just a punching bag in front of the Sword and Shield Kings.

Although attacks like Flamethrower had indeed hit Zacian and the others a few times, such attacks were not enough to be considered effective counterattacks.

After about ten minutes, Eternatus Eternamax's state finally reached its limit.

After another Behemoth Blade from the Sword King, the colossal Eternatus's body began to fall, crashing heavily onto the remains of Motostoke Stadium.

Seeing Eternatus finally defeated, Sword King Zacian and Shield King Zamazenta also descended from the sky, landing not far from Eternatus.

After fighting for so long, Zacian and Zamazenta's condition wasn't very good either; they were still a bit tired.

However, while their bodies were tired, their spirits were not at all.

The fairy king's sword that Sword King Zacian was biting glowed blue, gradually transforming into a sharp greatsword.

At the same time, Sword King Zacian stepped towards Eternatus.

This scourge, this time it must be completely killed!

Eternatus also sensed the pure and intense killing intent from Sword King Zacian, but its current state was truly too poor.

Moreover, it had no way to resist, only a little sadness.

Three thousand years ago it was cut down by this dog, and three thousand years later, it's this sword dog again.

However...

A black figure suddenly appeared like a phantom in front of Eternatus, making Sword King Zacian's steps falter.

It was Black Steed King.

"Calyrex, what do you mean by this?"

Sword King Zacian's cold telepathic voice was as unwavering as ever.

"I'm the one who wants to ask, Zacian, what were you trying to do just now?" Black Steed King calmly retorted.

"Of course, to completely deal with it." Sword King Zacian answered directly.

"Zacian, your killing intent is too strong."

A clear male voice came, and Sword King Zacian dispelled the energy on the fairy king's sword, turning its head to look at Mammon approaching.

"Human, what exactly do you want to do?"

Sword King Zacian understood that Black Steed King was now Mammon's partner, and Black Steed King preventing it from approaching Eternatus was undoubtedly at Mammon's instruction.

"I want to capture Eternatus, and I can't let you cut it down, Zacian."

Mammon said with a smile to Sword King Zacian, with Stellar Tera Terapagos floating above him.

Although Sword King Zacian still had its bottom line and wouldn't easily attack humans, it was best to be a little cautious in this situation.

Shield King Zamazenta decisively came to Sword King Zacian's side, silently adding momentum to its older sister.

And this scene also made Chairman Rose and the others dare not approach.

After all, the situation on the field had turned into a standoff between the Sword and Shield Kings and Black Steed King, Stellar Tera Terapagos.

How to put it?

Eternatus looked at the scene before it with a bit of confusion, its mind momentarily unable to process what was happening.

Why did it feel like they were about to fight over it?

"You want to capture this scourge?"

Sword King Zacian's cold and majestic face wrinkled human-like.

"Human, are you sure?"
