"Shriek!!"
After gaining the advantage in the clash, Yveltal flapped its wings and circled once through the air.
A trace of victorious delight flowed through its eyes.
Shiko crashed down from the sky.
Only after he slammed the ruined ground into enormous spiderweb-like cracks did he finally disperse that force.
So terrifying!
Shiko could not help sighing inwardly.
Yveltal's strength was growing rapidly without pause.
The life energy it had devoured had become nourishment, feeding its body.
He had to hurry!
Shiko's expression tightened.
If this dragged on any longer, once his Dynamax form ended, there really might be no way to deal with this thing!
The black shield flew back behind him.
Shiko slowly stood up.
Fortunately, with that previous strike, he had successfully applied Dragon's Mark to Yveltal.
His next moves would now be able to inflict double damage on it.
Combined with the combat power boost from Dynamax,
Shiko was confident
that he could break through Yveltal while it was not yet in its peak state.
"Tsk, tsk! Dynamax! How nostalgic!"
"Thinking about it carefully, that battle doesn't seem like it happened that long ago!"
In a corner,
Okano Shuzo, who was gazing at BlackWarGreymon's towering figure, suddenly narrowed his eyes and let out a faint murmur.
Those words reached Himeko's ears.
She suddenly turned to look at Okano Shuzo.
That familiar feeling from before had now become incomparably intense.
She was certain!
She had seen him before! She had come into contact with Okano Shuzo before!
A blank face
suddenly surfaced in Himeko's mind.
The blurry features
began piecing themselves together bit by bit.
"You… you're not Okano Shuzo!!"
A moment later,
as Himeko realized something, her expression abruptly changed.
Astonishment and shock surged through her eyes.
"Your memory is pretty good. I didn't expect you to recognize me even from that."
Okano Shuzo smiled.
He rolled up his sleeves.
Immediately afterward,
he removed the false face he had been wearing.
At that moment,
a familiar face was revealed.
This face
was not only familiar to her.
Every high-ranking member of the Great Axia Alliance and every member of the Military
recognized that face.
This person was not Okano Shuzo at all!
He was the number one figure on the Great Axia Alliance's wanted list!
Oba Genjo!!!
The former leader of Team Dark, a powerful Champion-level Trainer.
He had once controlled Mew,
led the members of Team Dark,
and launched an earth-shaking battle against the Great Axia Military!
In the end,
he had suffered a crushing defeat beneath the claws of WarGreymon, who had just completed his evolution.
The instant they saw Oba Genjo's face,
the Military high command far away in the Great Axia Alliance
immediately pieced together the whole sequence of events.
Back then, they had never been able to investigate
where Oba Genjo had obtained the device that let him control Mew
and establish a brainwave link with Mew.
Judging from the craftsmanship and technological level,
it absolutely had not been the work of Team Dark's scientists.
Now, they had finally understood.
In all likelihood, it had been provided by the Lighthouse Alliance.
And the mysterious person who had stopped them at the very end
and taken Oba Genjo away
was also very likely an Elite Four-level figure from the Lighthouse Alliance.
The purpose
may have been the birth of this Yveltal!
And now,
Oba Genjo, who was able to command Yveltal, a first-tier Legendary,
had clearly been propped up as the leader with the greatest authority in the entire Lighthouse Alliance!
Damn it!
If that was the case,
then the Lighthouse Alliance's goal really was to rule the entire world!
Everything!
All of it!
Had been planned by them from the very beginning!
