"Ah——"
Tonio's scream sounded a step before the two girls.
Crack!
The sound of tal denting rang out.
The top of the Space-Ti Tower was bitten so hard by the sneak-attacking Giratina that it was almost about to snap. As its bite force increased, the Space-Ti Tower also let out a painful groan.
"Garchomp!"
Cynthia's voice sounded.
At the mont the Space-Ti Tower snapped, Garchomp and Noivern successfully brought the three of them out.
"The music disk!"
Alice, sitting in Cynthia's arms, reached out towards the direction of the Space-Ti Tower.
The music disk had already been placed into the Space-Ti Tower.
But now the Space-Ti Tower had been bitten off by Giratina and thrown into a corner of the city.
Even if it was retrieved now, the Space-Ti Tower could no longer be used to play the music disk.
"We can only do it the hard way. You guys guide everyone in the city to hide."
Cynthia's expression gradually beca gloomy.
If Oración couldn't be played, then they could only rely on force to stop this battle.
She set Alice down on the ground at the first mont, and then rode Garchomp to fly into the sky again.
Patrolling the surroundings.
Dialga and Palkia were still engaged in a fierce battle. Darkrai tried hard to stop them, but its ability fell short of its wishes, and it was knocked flying to the outskirts of the city several tis.
On the other side, Will had already roared out a Dragon Pulse, impacting Giratina onto the ground.
The fragnts flashing past in her peripheral vision made Cynthia daze.
She turned her head to look at the very edge of Alamos Town.
The edge of the island was as if erased by an invisible eraser.
Streets, houses, trees, everything was turning into tiny fragnts shimring with faint light, and then silently and greedily swallowed by the spatial rift.
Alamos Town.
Was gradually disappearing from the Pokémon world like those forgotten mories.
People fled dazedly towards the courtyard in the center of Alamos Town; they didn't even know what they could do in this disaster.
Her pupils shrank slightly, imdiately letting Garchomp chase after Will:
"Lucario! Alamos Town is disappearing!"
"Let Garchomp and Milotic go help Darkrai! The impact of ti and space will generate a power that destroys everything, stop them!"
Will didn't have the ti to turn his head back.
Facing a Master-level Renegade Pokémon, he completely had no ti to attend to the battle on the space-ti gods' side.
After quickly explaining with a sentence, he brought his hands together in front of his chest and pushed forward through the air, shooting a dark purple Dark Pulse towards Giratina.
Giratina spewed out a Dragon Breath, offsetting the Dark Pulse, and then planned to dive into the shadow world to wait for an opportunity for a sneak attack.
But just as it was about to enter,
Will grabbed its tail and took a bite.
Absolutely cannot let this guy enter the shadow world!
What if Giratina went to sneak attack Cynthia again?
"Roar!!"
Giratina let out a roar of pain.
But it also found an opportunity to attack, quickly turning around and swinging a claw at Will, knocking him flying far away.
Giratina's pupils lit up, its eyes full of joy.
Its attention was finally completely shifted from Cynthia to Will, flapping its not-so-large black wings and chasing after Will.
And on Will's side.
He found it difficult to stop his montum.
How massive is Giratina's strength? Just a single claw left bloody claw marks on Will's flank.
His brain was in a daze.
Severe pain surged over like a tide.
Beside his ears were the screams and wails of the people.
How many trainers lost their family and partners in this war.
How many Pokémon suffered from an unprovoked disaster, crushed under buildings, waiting desperately for death.
Giratina, Palkia, Dialga...
Although there was an extra Giratina.
But thinking about it, you back then must have also been very desperate, right?
Lucario...
"Haaa..."
A low roar drilled out of Will's throat.
He twisted his body in the air, utilizing the power of the Sea Crown to forcefully stop his backward montum, and then smashed an Ice Punch towards Giratina, who was close at hand.
!!
The Ice Punch and Iron Head collided.
The surrounding atmosphere seed to be torn apart, the incomparable impact even slightly affecting the battlefield on the other side.
Giratina rely moved back five ters.
But Will's figure flew out again, like a duckweed in a torrent, falling into Alamos Town below.
His strength was too far off from Giratina's.
But in an instant.
Will leaped out from the ruins again.
His body, enveloped in Aura, almost turned into a blue shooting star, heavily kicking Giratina's face with the fastest speed.
Kicking it so hard it did a sorsault in mid-air.
But Giratina has the toughest body among the Creation Trio.
After enduring this powerful and heavy stomp from Will, it actually only shook its sowhat dizzy head, seemingly unhard.
In almost the blink of an eye.
Giratina recovered its senses, a lightning-fast Dragon Tail once again sweeping Will away to the outskirts of Alamos Town.
Heal Pulse and Life Dew surrounded Will's body, doing their utmost to heal his injuries.
But compared to the injuries caused by Giratina, this recovery speed seed like a drop in the bucket.
"Roar!"
Giratina excitedly spewed out a Draco teor.
Countless teorite fragnts fell from the sky, landing in the streets and alleys of Alamos Town and setting off a series of explosions.
"Stop!!"
Swish!
A Hydro Pump shot up into the sky, blasting Giratina to retreat repeatedly.
Will's figure rose from the ground again.
Bearing a body full of scars and resolute will, he steadily blocked between Giratina and the fragile town below.
The black-blue figure looked thin amidst the smoke and fire, yet also firm.
In his pupils.
Reflected another figure exactly identical to himself.
The figure of the Aura Guardian.
"The Aura is with ."
On the other side.
Darkrai used Dark Void to swallow the gods of space and ti, successfully trapping them.
ga Garchomp and Milotic exerted all their strength to output damage during this period, but failed to deal enough damage to affect the overall situation.
Darkrai's Dark Void quickly collapsed and was withdrawn into its body.
And the angry attacks of the gods of space and ti arrived in an instant.
Spacial Rend and Roar of Ti ca from both sides. Once the powers of space and ti collided, it would inevitably produce destructive power comparable to Yveltal's. In the original work, Darkrai was shattered into pieces under the impact of these two moves, disappearing into the spatial rift just like Alamos Town.
Fortunately.
Garchomp was quick-eyed and deft-handed, grabbing Darkrai and running, dodging this perilous strike.
The battle was still ongoing.
Cynthia sent ga Garchomp and Milotic to help Darkrai.
But Milotic's strength was too weak.
For her, a Lv. 87 Pokémon, intervening in a battle between three Masters was too much of a stretch.
Will fighting Giratina one-on-one was in a state of being crushed.
Not to ntion Milotic.
Only ga Garchomp could face the gods of space and ti head-on.
They repeatedly cut into the gaps of the two gods' battle, using Dragon Claw, Earthquake, and even using their own physical bodies to endure those fatal attacks.
Every collision was accompanied by flying scales and earth-shattering roars of pain.
They were both exerting all their strength to buy Darkrai a chance to catch its breath.
"Miss Cynthia!"
Tonio's voice sounded from the side.
Cynthia, who was standing in the square looking at the sky worriedly, turned her head and saw Tonio and Alice running over.
"What are you doing here? It's very dangerous here."
Cynthia frowned.
She was currently burning with anxiety.
On one hand, she had to let Roserade and the others rescue those trapped people and Pokémon; on the other hand, she had to pay attention to the two battlefields in the sky.
'If only I could let Lucario ga Evolve.'
Cynthia felt very self-blaming and guilty at this mont.
If Lucario could ga Evolve, the current situation would definitely be much better.
She also didn't want to keep being at odds with Will anymore.
But...
She couldn't control her own heart.
The stronger her desire to help Will was, the clearer the image of Will pushing her away two years ago beca.
The high wall built by that knot in her heart seed so cruel and sturdy at this mont.
"I discovered that Alamos Town gradually being swallowed is essentially an energy reaction, and energy can be offset!"
Tonio said excitedly, raising his hand pointing to the edge of the city,
"We can gather everyone's power, release skills towards the edge of the city together, to slow down the speed of Alamos Town being swallowed, buying ti for you!"
"Okay, then do that. I'm leaving this to you, Tonio, Alice."
Cynthia nodded weakly.
Given the current situation, this could be considered a blessing in disguise.
But looking at the departing backs of Tonio and Alice, her mood didn't improve at all.
Even if they could delay it, so what?
Could relying on their power possibly stop the Creation Trio?
This kind of thought cannot be shown.
Because she is the Champion of the Sinnoh region, the hope in the eyes of the people of Alamos Town.
Even at this very mont.
She also knew.
In so corner of this city, there must be a mother saying to her child: "It's okay, don't be afraid, Miss Cynthia is protecting us."
She also knew.
At the outskirts of the city.
There must be a group of trainers and their Pokémon exerting all their strength to slow down the speed of Alamos Town's destruction, just to buy her and Will more ti, even if it's just one second.
This is a despairing world, indeed.
But everyone is exerting all their strength to burn themselves, igniting the brilliant fire called hope.
So.
She absolutely cannot give up.
No matter who the opponent is.
No matter how desperate the situation is.
She must persevere to the end.
Boom!
The sand, dust, and rubble rising beside her ears jolted Cynthia awake.
She didn't care about the cuts on her face drawn by the rubble, staring blankly sideways at the giant crater beside her, her heart stopping in this mont.
In the center of the giant crater.
That resolute, never-falling black-blue figure lay weakly on the ground, with countless pieces of rubble pressing down on him.
Fresh blood dyed the fur on his body dark red, and bite marks and claw marks covered his chest and arms.
He was still struggling to get up.
His pupils were still bright and piercing.
It was just that his frail body couldn't support his tenacious soul.
