Chapter 544: The King Descends from the Sky
The weather in a certain sea area was very strange at this moment.
Bounded by a certain straight line.
The sky over this ocean was split into two.
The western sky was covered in dark clouds, with lightning and thunder, and continuous heavy rain.
The eastern sky was cloudless, the sunlight dazzling, and the heat sweltering.
As if some invisible things were competing for the sovereignty of the weather in this area.
As time quietly slipped away.
Exactly at 6 PM.
The two incompatible skies were forcefully merged together at this moment.
While the dark clouds sprinkled heavy rain, they also sprinkled dazzling rays of sunlight.
Light and dark twisted and collided in every raindrop.
The entire sea area was enveloped in a heart-palpitating bizarre and motley scene.
Such strange weather.
Is probably hard to see even once in hundreds or thousands of years.
Right at this moment.
On the western sea surface and the eastern sea surface, a colossal creature leaped out simultaneously.
Located in the west, described in mythology as submerging the land with pouring rain and surging huge waves to expand the ocean, the 'Incarnation of the Ocean'—Kyogre!
Located in the east, described in mythology as creating land and expanding continents, the 'Incarnation of the Earth'—Groudon!
The two stared at each other from across a distance of a kilometer, electric sparks seemingly generated as their eyes crossed.
Is a kilometer far?
For a human with an average height of a little over a meter, of course it's far.
But for a giant beast two hundred meters long and a giant beast two hundred meters tall, a kilometer...
Is nothing more than being close at hand.
Between Mythical beasts.
Eye contact means provocation.
Not to mention, Groudon and Kyogre both clearly know why the other appeared here.
This war is inevitable!
"Roar!!" x2
The angry roars of both sides sounded simultaneously.
The black lines on Groudon's body flowed outward with streaks of flaming red magma.
The magma rolled under its feet, merging with the seawater, and instantly turned into land for it to stand on.
Only to see that flaming red power flowing along the land and seawater under its feet, all the way towards beneath Kyogre!
On the other side.
The red lines on Kyogre's body also lit up with cyan-white light.
Cyan-white energy spheres coalesced in front of its body, seemingly gathering some terrifying power.
Both sides launched attacks together.
Groudon's body shook, using its signature move, Precipice Blades!
Boom!
Magma-like sharp blades suddenly protruded from thin air beneath Kyogre, stabbing into the latter's abdomen, knocking it into mid-air, and generating a violent explosion!
At the same time.
The energy spheres in front of Kyogre also shot out dazzling cyan-white beams of light. In the blink of an eye, the light beams hit Groudon, who was standing in place like a stake.
Groudon was shot to retreat continuously, its hind foot stepping back into the sea again.
That was Kyogre's signature move, Origin Pulse!
A huge body size indeed has many benefits.
But similarly, facing enemy attacks, it's also hard to dodge.
So many Pokémon simply give up wasting effort on dodging, and just blindly launch attacks.
Normally speaking.
Groudon, as a Ground-type Pokémon, is countered by the Water-type.
The battle between the two gods should be unfavorable for Groudon.
But actually, when they fight, it really is neck and neck.
In front of this most primal, purest ancient mighty power, the shackles of type matchups seem to be weakened.
Both are old rivals.
Groudon and Kyogre naturally know that a mere single move cannot finish the other off.
After recovering from the stiffness, they launched attacks again.
Only to see Kyogre taking advantage of the remaining momentum from falling from the sky, smashing onto the sea surface and kicking up monstrous huge waves, pressing towards all directions with overwhelming force.
The Groudon opposite it glowed with a golden-yellow light.
As if absorbing the brilliance of the blazing sun piercing through the bizarre rain curtain in the sky into its body.
After forcefully taking a Surf, it opened its mouth and spewed out a golden Solar Beam.
Boom!
The light that illuminates the dark night bombarded Kyogre's body, making it uncontrollably flip over on the sea surface.
The huge waves rose and then fell.
But Kyogre's figure had already disappeared.
The sea surface was calm and peaceful, only permeated by pale water mist.
The world seemed to stand still at this moment.
Groudon's eyes narrowed, swinging its huge Hammer Arm to slap behind it.
Kyogre leaped out from the water surface, an Aqua Tail sweeping towards Groudon.
Rumble rumble—
A deep blue lightning bolt descended from the sky.
However.
A figure emitting supreme majesty and terrifying power shot towards the center of the two gods faster than the lightning.
He held a golden spiral energy sphere in one hand, smashing them onto the arm and giant tail on both sides.
!!
The two huge figures, like mountain-sized giant beasts, simultaneously retreated backward.
They stabilized their bodies at the first moment and turned their heads to look at the sky.
At the center of the storm.
That black-blue figure clearly hovered between Groudon and Kyogre.
Like a boundary marker dividing the sky and sea.
The King descends from the sky.
"That stone split into two. Dividing it equally between you two wouldn't be impossible, but your battle cannot continue."
Will crossed his arms over his chest, looking down at the two giant beasts below, without the slightest fear in his eyes.
What kind of strong winds and big waves (major crises) hasn't he seen?
How could he fear two Legendary Pokémon now?
Groudon and Kyogre are called gods.
Hasn't he, Will, ever been called a god?
Moreover, the current Groudon and Kyogre are nothing but incomplete bodies.
As for the 'Legendary Giant Rock'.
The Hoenn League indeed wants to recover it, but the main thing is to resolve the battle between Groudon and Kyogre, protecting the peace and safety of the surrounding regions.
If losing this stone can make Groudon and Kyogre cease fighting.
Then a loss is a loss.
"Roar!!"
The first to show dissatisfaction was Kyogre.
He responded to Will with a Hydro Pump that was at least twenty meters in diameter.
Are you kidding?
Right now it's on the ocean.
He has the terrain advantage and can clearly blast that fire-lighting lizard opposite him. Why should he divide it equally?!
And.
Who are you?
You little ant are ordering me around?
Kyogre willing to stop and listen to Will say a sentence was already considered giving face to an Aura Guardian.
If Will hadn't shown some strength just now.
Even if it was an Aura Guardian's face.
Kyogre wouldn't give it.
"Heh."
Will pursed his lips.
As expected.
If these two guys were so easily persuaded, they wouldn't be called the two idiots.
He opened his mouth and similarly responded to Kyogre with a Hydro Pump.
Boom—
A huge pillar of water similarly twenty meters in diameter blasted out, forcefully canceling out Kyogre's Hydro Pump.
Accompanied by droplets of water filling the sky falling back into the ocean.
Kyogre blinked those eyes clearly carrying a look of bewilderment.
And it was right in this moment of its daze.
Will's figure had already disappeared.
The next moment.
Kyogre's abdomen suffered a fierce heavy blow.
Only to see streaks of yellow electric sparks flash across its body, and then it was punched flying into mid-air.
Will's figure rushed out from beneath the water surface.
Stepping on the water current, he flipped above Kyogre, and then a high kick landed heavily.
Thud—
A muffled sound rang out.
Ripples of flesh rolled on Kyogre's body, and then it was smashed into the sea like a cannonball.
In the blink of an eye.
Will was about to dive headfirst into the sea to relentlessly pursue and fiercely attack Kyogre.
However, at the moment he was about to enter the sea.
His figure halted, his pupils shrinking.
Too late to dodge.
Raised his arms in front to block.
A huge tail like a palm-leaf fan swept out from the sea surface, swatting Will tens of meters high into the air.
Kyogre glared with a pair of eyes full of anger, sticking its head out from the sea surface, opening its huge mouth like an abyss, and fired another Origin Pulse.
Countless cyan-white rays of light converged at a single point, hitting Will simultaneously.
Just when Kyogre thought the battle was over and prepared to turn around and deal with Groudon.
It suddenly widened its eyes and looked into the sky.
The sky intertwined with light and shadow couldn't see any figure anymore.
Instead, a whistling sound of atmospheric compression came from beside its ear.
Kyogre didn't even have time to turn its head to see what was going on before a bone-chilling steel claw slapped its side face, flipping it over with one slap.
"Hmph."
Will raised a hand and clenched it.
A long Aura staff coalesced out of thin air, held in his hand as he pursued Kyogre.
Bone Rush.
Four or five strikes swung at Kyogre's body, knocking it back under the sea again.
The cyan-white rays of light just now were indeed fully taken by Will.
The firing speed of Origin Pulse is extremely fast, simply too late to dodge.
Of course.
Will himself didn't plan to dodge either.
After all, he has the Splash Plate.
Otherwise.
That hit would probably have been truly unpleasant.
"Roar!"
Kyogre's roar sounded.
Its huge figure once again rushed out of the sea surface, surrounded by rings of water curtains constantly healing its wounds.
Aqua Ring paired with a Legendary Pokémon's own recovery power.
This granted Kyogre unparalleled recovery ability and combat endurance.
This is also one of the keys for Legendary Pokémon to pull ahead of ordinary Pokémon.
It used its massive physical body to crash towards Will, using a Normal-type ultimate move—Giga Impact.
Will's Metal Claw slapping its face just now,
Seemed to have made Kyogre go berserk!
Now with bloodshot eyes, it no longer cared about any Legendary Giant Rock or Groudon.
In its eyes, there was only Will.
"Haaa!!"
Will narrowed his eyes.
Didn't dodge either.
Dispersed the Aura staff, tapped lightly with his feet, and charged forward.
Could dodge.
But that would give Kyogre time to catch its breath and recover.
So.
This move must be met head-on!
A golden light lit up from Will's right fist.
The collision between Focus Punch and Giga Impact set off a massive disturbance on the sea surface.
Boom—
The sky and the ocean seemed to suffer a heavy blow.
The thick clouds overhead were split into two as if cut by a giant blade.
Tens of large and small whirlpools and tornadoes appeared on the sea surface within a hundred miles radius, and in the distance, tsunamis were constantly brewing, turning into tumbling, slanting pillars of water.
This is a true man-made natural disaster!
However, this was not the end.
Because the battle between Will and Kyogre had just begun!
How could a battle of the same level be so easily turned over and ended.
Groudon beside them was happily watching the show.
Secretly pondering in its heart, when to give these two guys a shot, to reap the spoils of the fisherman.
As a result.
Five Hydro Pumps suddenly shot the back of its head.
Turned its head to look.
Several small fries were glaring at it like tigers watching their prey.
Four swimming in the sea, and one flying in the sky.
The angry Groudon didn't care about the fat-headed fish anymore, stomping heavily with its right foot.
Going straight up with a Precipice Blades warning.
