The sudden deep-blue beam of energy caught everyone completely off guard.
No one had expected such a change to occur at this critical moment.
But could this attack really withstand the offensive of a First-tier Legendary?
Countless people below felt their hearts clench.
Amid their despair and tension, a faint thread of expectation began to grow.
No matter what, this was already their only hope!
Boom!
The ferocious deep-blue dragon roared as it met the white pillar of energy head-on.
A terrifying explosion rang out across that stretch of space.
It was like a sudden thunderclap tearing through the sky.
In the next second, before everyone's stunned eyes, the entire world underwent a terrifying change.
That blue sky was split cleanly into two distinct halves by the collision of the two attacks.
One half was a deep, profound blue.
The other half was a blinding, deathly white.
Under the impact, the scattered energy swept outward like a violent storm.
A gigantic tornado of energy roared, destroying everything on the ground.
Boom!!
Another terrifying sound rang out.
The collision was still continuing.
However, the energy of the two attacks had clearly lost more than half of its power as they wore each other down.
In the end, the deep-blue dragon held the white pillar of energy in its jaws and flew toward the boundless depths of space, disappearing from everyone's sight.
The lingering shockwaves of scattered energy also settled down.
The entire world finally went quiet.
But at that moment, everyone saw a scene that left them dumbstruck, something they would never forget for the rest of their lives.
Directly beneath the place where the two attacks had collided, the flat ground had already turned into a gigantic crater.
It was over a hundred meters deep.
Its diameter exceeded a thousand meters.
Just the shockwaves from the collision of these two attacks had produced destructive power like a small asteroid striking the planet!
At the very center of the blasted crater, an enormous fissure had split open.
It was even more exaggerated than the largest natural canyon in the world.
It was practically an impassable abyss stretching across the land.
A dark aura and scarlet magma continuously surged out from within the fissure.
That was enough to prove that the crack torn open by the impact had already pierced directly into the deep layers beneath the planet's crust!
Ruthless!!
In an instant, that word was deeply branded into the minds of everyone present.
But immediately afterward, they realized something else.
If such a terrifying attack had really landed on them, then everyone present would have been unable to escape death. They would have been blasted into dust by the energy impact long ago.
Fortunately, someone had stopped that attack!
Who could clash head-on with Dialga and not fall at a disadvantage?
Everyone strained to lift their stiff heads.
Their gazes turned toward the distant sky on the other side.
There, they caught sight of a dazzling dragon warrior wearing bright yellow alloy armor, with long hair drifting behind him.
That familiar figure made their hearts leap with excitement in an instant!
It was WarGreymon!
That powerful Pokémon who had once accomplished the great feat of slaying a god!
The eyes of the people below lit up.
They strained their voices and let out hysterical cheers.
At this moment, Shiko once again became their savior and true god.
Meanwhile, Shiko stood in the sky.
He silently clenched his fist.
Looking at Dialga in the distant sky, battle intent surged wildly in his heart.
This simple collision had given him absolute confidence that he could fight the opponent!
Immediately afterward, he suddenly heard the cheers coming from below.
He lowered his head.
Only then did he see the large number of Trainers gathered here.
Hm?
What was going on?
Shiko looked around carefully and spotted a few familiar faces among them.
Only then did he react.
So this was Lighthouse Alliance territory.
The people below were the Lighthouse Alliance's original lower ranks.
Shiko silently nodded.
His gaze quickly moved away from them.
As for the fact that he had unintentionally saved them, Shiko did not care at all.
Right now, all his attention and thoughts were focused on Dialga.
In the distant sky, because of that single clash, Dialga had also sensed the extremely powerful aura radiating from Shiko.
Immediately afterward, this sharp First-tier Legendary caught the aura of Steel and Dragon attributes on Shiko, exactly the same as his own!
Looking at the opponent's unfamiliar appearance, one he had never seen before, Dialga instantly confirmed it.
This fellow before him was the anomaly Arceus had instructed him to eliminate!
