Trying to run!?
Shiko narrowed his dragon eyes.
A sharp glint flashed through them.
He stomped hard on the ground.
Like a jet fighter, he shot into the air with a roar,
weaving through the passage at an exaggerated speed,
like a streaking yellow teor.
Damn!
I can finally fly!
Shiko cried out excitedly in his heart.
He would never again have to let Hiko store him inside a Poké Ball,
then ride a Flying-type Pokémon over long distances.
Now,
he could do it himself!
After getting a taste of what flight felt like,
Shiko estimated that
if he went all out and pushed his speed to the limit,
he would definitely be far faster than Dragonite, the Pokémon known for Mach-speed flight!
ltal and Registeel
were frantically fleeing along the passage toward the exit.
No matter how hard they tried, they could not understand
why an ordinary Pokémon
that had never stepped into the Legendary realm
could, after evolving just once,
suddenly stand above them
and directly enter the realm of a second-tier Legendary!?
If they had not seen it with their own eyes,
they would never have believed it, even if they died!
It completely overturned the beliefs and understanding they had built over thousands of years!
Sensing the intense battle intent and killing intent bursting from Shiko,
the two Pokémon,
driven to the edge of life and death,
unleashed trendous hidden potential.
Their speed beca absurdly fast,
leaving behind only two blurry silver-white shadows.
But even so,
they could still feel
that the distance between themselves and that yellow shadow behind them had not widened at all.
On the contrary,
it was still closing in!
What the hell!
This is insane!
Because of their naturally imnse weight,
Steel-type Pokémon,
even Flying-types,
were not especially fast.
But the one behind them was clearly a freak!
Its flight speed was absurd!
It was nothing like what a Steel-type Pokémon should be!
And on top of that,
the relaxed, effortless way he pursued them,
like a cat toying with mice,
proved that this monster
still had not used his full strength!!
It's over!
A thread of despair instantly crept into the hearts of both Pokémon.
But even so,
their feet did not stop for even a mont.
Instead,
they sped up even more.
At the end of the passage,
a patch of warm sunlight poured in.
It faintly dispelled so of the darkness hanging over their despairing hearts.
A mont later,
ltal and Registeel,
one after the other and in a miserable state,
stumbled out of the cave.
And it was at that exact mont
that the mbers of the Mt. Silver monitoring squad
arrived nearby.
They were observing the situation from the air,
and with a single glance,
they saw ltal and Registeel panting as they fled in panic.
It was as if
so great horror was chasing after them.
The sight of two third-tier Legendaries fleeing so miserably
left them completely dumbstruck.
A being that even third-tier Legendaries feared...
Could it be...!?
Had a second-tier Legendary appeared here as well?
The entire squad instantly tensed up.
Every gaze
locked tightly onto the cave.
No one even blinked.
They held their breath,
not daring to make a sound.
At that mont,
everyone began to worry, for no clear reason, about GeoGreymon.
This key target of the Military's focused cultivation program
caught between two third-tier Legendaries and a second-tier Legendary
was surely dood!
It's coming!!!
Just then,
at the entrance of that green cave,
a brilliant flash of yellow suddenly appeared.
Everyone's thoughts were yanked back.
The dragon-man Pokémon clad in yellow alloy armor
now looked like a god of war.
After flying out of the cave and landing,
he used the montum to launch forward again.
That yellow streak of light closed in on ltal and Registeel in the blink of an eye!
He crossed both claws before his chest.
Cherry-red draconic energy wrapped around them.
A fierce aura swept outward.
In an instant,
a massive dragon's roar echoed across this vast mountain range!
The Dragon Claw of WarGreymon form!
His indestructible Digi-Alloy claws matched perfectly with Dragon-type energy!
A cross-shaped blade of light slashed out,
cutting apart the air itself,
shredding the energy within it,
and struck the fleeing ltal and Registeel with perfect accuracy!
"Graaah!!!!"
A scream of agony rang out.
ltal's body
was instantly cut into countless shattered fragnts of liquid alloy.
Its hexagonal nut-like core fell to the ground,
and its hexagonal eye and body once again fell unconscious.
Registeel's condition was even worse.
Its thick and resilient body
was completely incapable of resisting Shiko's ultimate, razor-sharp strike.
After the sharp blade-light carved into its body,
the trendous impact behind it
sent it flying straight away.
It crossed several hundred ters
before being embedded into a silver-white mountain opposite them,
slamming deeply into it.
The cross-shaped blade-light exploded around it,
actually blasting chunks off the mountainside.
Registeel's head tilted to one side.
It, too, fainted unconscious.
The way it looked now
made it seem exactly like a martyr nailed to a cross.
Shiko looked at the results of his attack,
and satisfaction showed in his eyes.
He was extrely pleased with the terrifying combat power he had displayed.
This evolution
had once again allowed him to break past the limits of ordinary Pokémon.
He had undergone a complete rebirth.
Not only had his talent and potential entered the ranks of second-tier Legendaries,
but the reward for his main evolution quest had also arrived.
A staggering one thousand experience points
had directly pushed his level
from Champion-tier
up to the level of a top human powerhouse!
And it was precisely because of that
that he had been able to defeat these two third-tier Legendaries so easily.
As he was now,
whether in combat power or in level,
he was unquestionably one of the absolute peak existences within the human alliance!
In midair,
the mbers of the monitoring squad,
who had witnessed all of this,
had now all fallen into extre shock.
What they had just seen and heard
would absolutely beco an unforgettable impression for the rest of their lives.
"Th-this Pokémon... damn! It's so strong..."
"So it really is... a second-tier Legendary..."
"And an entirely new Pokémon that has never been recorded before..."
"This is bad... these are troubled tis indeed. The situation on the Minister's side is still unknown, and now sothing this overwhelmingly powerful and impossible to provoke has shown up here too!"
"..."
As they looked at WarGreymon's heroic figure beneath the sunlight,
the squad mbers
felt only a deep despair,
as if they had fallen into an icy abyss.
The next second,
that powerful Pokémon standing there in apparent thought
suddenly raised his head.
His icy gaze
locked onto them.
That single glance
instantly pulled every nerve in their bodies tight.
Damn!
This is bad!
We've been spotted!
Before they could urge the Flying-type Pokémon beneath them to flee,
that overwhelmingly powerful being
leaped straight into the air,
jumping dozens of ters high
and rapidly closing in on them!!
It's over!
Despair instantly spread through everyone's hearts!
