The mist and dust smoke on the right side were disturbed.
Dialga's figure suddenly appeared within them.
Its blue-and-silver body had now turned into a pure silver, steel-like color.
It carried an intense feeling of sharpness and toughness.
Its neck tilted backward at an exaggerated angle.
Then, like a fully drawn bowstring suddenly released—
Carrying a tremendous inertia—
It used its steel-like head to smash viciously toward Shiko's body.
The piercing waves of sonic booms made alarm bells ring wildly in Shiko's heart.
Almost at his fastest speed, he pulled down the shining wings on his back.
They formed the Brave Shield.
He guarded the space before him.
Clang!!
A clear and resounding clash of metal rang out.
It was like a great bell being struck.
The rumbling sound continued to echo between heaven and earth.
On the Brave Shield, the sun-like pattern of the Crest of Courage flickered.
It digested and absorbed all the powerful attribute energy hidden within this attack.
But!
The tremendous pure physical force contained in this attack still sent Shiko, who had not had time to prepare properly, flying backward more than ten meters before he stabilized his body.
The instant the impact faded, he exerted force again.
Like a yellow shooting star, he flew straight toward Dialga.
His Metal Claws crossed before him in an X shape.
The silver-white alloy claws were coated with a layer of dark black light.
After that light flashed past—
Blue Dragon-type energy and silver Steel-type energy attached themselves to the claws.
After the two-colored energies blended and gathered together—
A smear of gray energy was mixed into them as well.
This move was WarGreymon's proud fusion technique.
After the enhancement from Hone Claws—
The combination of Metal Claw and Dragon Claw became even stronger.
Then, by adding in the power of the Normal-type Crush Claw—
This move became even more terrifying.
A figure as fast as a shooting star streaked across the sky.
The Brave Shield had already flown back behind him, turning into two spread alloy wings.
At this moment, Shiko carried a brave momentum of pressing forward without retreat.
His crossed claws were simply the sharpest and strongest weapons in this world.
They carried a terrifying aura that seemed capable of cutting through anything.
They slashed down viciously!
Dialga had used Substitute earlier to mislead Shiko's vision.
That had consumed quite a lot of its energy.
The sneak attack it had landed just now made the energy inside its body enter a brief state of depletion.
Its old strength had faded, and its new strength had yet to rise.
It had never expected that the surprise attack it had schemed so carefully would actually be blocked by Shiko.
It had expected even less that, after enduring the remaining impact, he would be able to adjust his posture so quickly and launch another attack.
Damn it!
Looking at Shiko, who was rapidly closing in, Dialga clenched its teeth, and the resentment in its heart grew even stronger.
From the beginning of the battle until now, after several exchanges, it had gained no advantage at all against Shiko, this unknown heretic who needed to be eradicated.
It had even been suppressed by the other side, faintly falling into a disadvantage.
As one of the most elite First-tier Legendaries—
And as a proud Dragon Pokémon—
It naturally could not accept such an outcome at all.
And so—
The instant Shiko's attack arrived before its eyes—
It finally became completely serious.
It brought out its true strength.
It displayed the power that a top-level First-tier Legendary, one that had transcended the scope of a planet and become a cosmic-level existence, should possess.
Roar!!
A high-pitched dragon roar rang out.
The spreading sound waves turned into misty-white tangible energy.
Under the impact of this misty-white energy, whose attribute Shiko could not identify—
The entire world was completely paused.
