The scene returned to the stadium.
After HerculesKabuterimon suffered such a crushing defeat, the balance of the battle had completely tipped in Mewtwo's favor.
Phoenixmon and the others who remained didn't fare much better against Mewtwo's overwhelming strength.
Whether they engaged it in close combat or unleashed energy attacks from a distance...
Mewtwo blocked everything effortlessly with a single hand.
Then came an extremely simple counterattack.
One strike was enough to knock them unconscious and secure victory.
Within only a few breaths, Mewtwo swept through the entire battlefield.
In the end...
It was the only one still standing.
Mewtwo floated silently in the air.
Clad in armor, it resembled an ancient god as it coldly looked down upon everything below.
Its gaze first swept across the spectators still sitting throughout the stadium.
Hmph!
Ants!
Mewtwo sneered.
The contempt and disdain in its eyes were almost tangible.
These pitifully weak creatures...
Were somehow able to command and enslave Pokémon however they pleased.
It was incomprehensible.
But now!
With Mewtwo possessing absolute power...
Those days were about to end.
This twisted prison created by humanity would finally be broken.
The reckoning was about to begin.
Not one of them would escape!
Then...
Mewtwo's gaze shifted back.
It landed on Shiko.
When looking at this human whose true depths even Mewtwo couldn't discern, its eyes narrowed slightly.
Intense hatred and fury burned within them like raging flames.
Compared with the ordinary spectators in the stadium, Mewtwo's hatred toward Shiko was far more personal.
Because from Shiko...
Mewtwo sensed something similar to the humans who had created it.
Someone who didn't respect life.
Someone who manipulated living beings however he pleased merely to satisfy his own desires.
Absolutely!
It would absolutely tear him into pieces!
It would make him die slowly amid hopeless screams and agonized cries!
Mewtwo's killing intent was set.
It assumed an attacking posture!
"What are we supposed to do?!"
Inside the stadium's VIP room...
The League executives were panicking.
They could all clearly see Mewtwo's extreme hatred toward humanity.
And they understood just how terrifyingly powerful it was.
Even if all of humanity's strongest Trainers joined forces...
Mewtwo could probably reduce them to ashes with a single finger.
The gap between them was simply too enormous.
What such a disparity inspired wasn't fighting spirit.
It was despair.
"Is that person really not going to intervene?"
"At this point, isn't he the only one capable of suppressing that monster?"
Someone among the group finally spoke.
The moment those words fell...
Everyone naturally turned toward Himeko.
The person they were referring to was, of course, Shiko—the one who had defeated Arceus and become the new Creator God.
Against Mewtwo's cosmic-level First-tier Legendary combat power...
Shiko was the only one capable of winning.
And among all the executives gathered here...
Himeko was undoubtedly the person with the closest relationship to Shiko.
Feeling everyone's eyes upon her...
Himeko slowly stood up.
The others immediately breathed sighs of relief.
They thought she had some way to contact Shiko and resolve the crisis.
But then...
Himeko did something none of them expected.
She reached for the Poké Ball at her waist.
And held it firmly in her hand.
"Let me try."
Huh?
The instant she said those words, everyone's minds went blank.
Wait.
What did she mean, let her try?
Why was she suddenly volunteering to play the savior?!
Hadn't she seen what had just happened?!
Those incredibly powerful Legendary Pokémon and Digimon...
Mewtwo had defeated them effortlessly!
Did she seriously think she had the ability to fight something with that level of strength?
Had fear driven her insane?
Or was something wrong with her body, causing her to hallucinate?
While everyone was still staring at her in disbelief...
Himeko had already left the VIP room and stepped onto the balcony.
She took a deep breath.
Then she looked down toward Mewtwo at the center of the enormous battlefield.
Mewtwo also noticed the movement.
Its charge toward Shiko abruptly stopped.
It turned and looked in Himeko's direction.
When it saw crimson light land on the battlefield and gradually take the form of a creature...
Mewtwo frowned deeply.
Foolish human.
After witnessing my power...
You still dare raise a weapon against me?
How arrogant.
How ignorant.
In that case...
I'll teach you a lesson written in blood.
Mewtwo snorted coldly.
Then it turned and rushed toward Himeko's position.
Halfway there...
It suddenly stopped.
Mewtwo slowly extended one hand.
Purple light gathered in its palm.
Pure Psychic-type energy condensed into a compact energy sphere.
Boom!!
The purple projectile shot toward the VIP room.
Although the sphere was only about the size of a fist...
The amount of energy contained within it was terrifying.
Its purity was extraordinarily high.
And it had been compressed to an extreme degree.
If it struck its target...
The resulting explosion would instantly vaporize the entire building.
Farewell.
Allowing you to die without experiencing any pain...
Is already an act of mercy.
Mewtwo silently delivered the eulogy in its mind.
It narrowed its eyes, ready to admire its handiwork.
Clang!!!
A flash of silver light swept through the air.
Six claw marks tore across the sky, leaving several tiny fractures in their wake.
Bang!
After a soft impact...
The purple Psychic energy sphere abruptly changed direction.
It turned at a perfect ninety-degree angle and shot straight into the sky.
Hundreds of meters above the stadium—
BOOM!!
It exploded.
An astonishing amount of Psychic-type energy spread across the sky, dyeing the heavens in shades of violet and pink.
Clear trails of energy spread outward like branching bolts of lightning.
Another powerful opponent?!
Mewtwo was startled.
Then—
It clearly sensed an overwhelmingly powerful aura.
This presence was far stronger than that of any creature it had fought earlier.
A dangerous opponent.
Within Mewtwo's field of vision...
A bipedal dragon covered from head to toe in brilliant golden alloy armor had already appeared directly in front of it.
The one entering the battle...
Was none other than WarGreymon!!
