Whoosh—
A grayish-brown stone statue miraculously floated up from under the water.
Archie, looking both crazed and devout, held the indigo orb in his hands, from which rays of blue light emanated, shining upon the stone statue beneath him.
Then, cracks began to appear on the stone statue, and ancient-looking pieces of stone slowly flaked off, sinking into the lake, as the statue's true form gradually revealed itself.
The blue aura in the cave grew increasingly distinct.
Kyogre… had awakened!
It was a creature entirely deep blue, with two massive pectoral fins. Red stripes adorned its chin, eyes, the back of its fins, and its torso. These red stripes were now flashing, blinking as if carrying a special frequency.
Kyogre, its eyes tightly shut, slowly opened them. Its eyeballs were almost identical to Rayquaza's, which Aoki had seen before.
Black eyes with yellow irises, and black pupils within the irises. There was no emotional fluctuation, only a cold gaze fixed on Aoki and Drake in front of it.
But even so, Aoki felt all the pores on his body stand on end in an instant, a feeling of being targeted by the most terrifying venomous snake.
"Hahahahaha—"
At this mont, Archie, standing on Kyogre's back, burst into a flamboyant laugh.
"Kyogre!! This is Kyogre!! I will beco the master of the entire world! Kyogre, first destroy the enemies in front of us!!" Archie shouted, looking down at Kyogre.
Then, Kyogre opened its mouth, and a mass of water-type energy rapidly converged within it. The power contained in this energy made both Aoki's and Drake's Pokémon imdiately assu defensive stances.
Drake's expression was extrely grave, and he was about to command his Pokémon to counterattack.
"Teacher! Not here! Let's retreat first, Slowking!" Aoki imdiately stopped Drake.
This was a deep-sea cave. If Kyogre unleashed an attack, even if the two of them could resist, they would quickly be subrged by the seawater. At that point, the surging tides and water pressure would render them completely helpless.
Slowking imdiately understood Aoki's words and used Teleport. Aoki also placed his hand on Slowking's back at the first opportunity, superimposing his psychic power into its body.
Teleport activated at the fastest speed, taking Aoki, Drake, and all their Pokémon, making them vanish from their original spot.
Because there were no clear spatial coordinates, Slowking's action was to teleport upwards towards the sea surface.
When Aoki and Drake opened their eyes again, they had already appeared high in the sky, above them were low, dark clouds and flashing lightning.
Fortunately, protected by Slowking's psychic power, the lightning did not strike them.
Aoki and Drake both stood on Salance's back, while their other Pokémon were recalled to their Poké Balls.
Without ti to think, the two imdiately looked downwards.
Then they saw a huge whirlpool appearing directly beneath them in the ocean, and at the very center of the whirlpool, they saw those familiar red patterns and those two yellow eyes.
Kyogre!
"Go!!" Drake growled.
Salance instantly understood, flapping its wings and rushing forward.
Just after they left their original spot, they saw a massive water pillar erupting from the sea surface, soaring into the sky with fierce montum and an unyielding purpose!
Kyogre's attack!
If Drake hadn't commanded Salance to leave quickly, they would have probably been blasted away instantly.
Whoosh—
Kyogre erged from the deep sea onto the surface, with Archie still standing on its back, holding the indigo orb in his hand, looking utterly insane.
He let the rain from the sky drench him, and the light from the flashing lightning illuminated his face. He looked as if he had almost lost his basic ability to think and his sanity.
He was completely controlled by Kyogre.
He thought he was controlling the power, but he didn't know that he had already lost himself in the power, becoming its puppet.
Kyogre looked at Salance flying in mid-air, a yellow light flashed in its eyes, and the rain in the sky grew even heavier, as if it would never stop.
Salance continued to fly, while Kyogre on the sea surface also stirred up the energy within itself, rushing out like a sharp sword, pursuing them directly!
"We can't fight effectively on the sea surface. We need to find a relatively large piece of land to stop Kyogre. If it gets close to the Hoenn region, it will cause too much disaster.
It has just awakened, and its true consciousness has not fully recovered; only its innate instinct for destruction is present.
But precisely because of this, we can stop it and find an opportunity to seize the orb from Archie's hand." Drake said in a deep voice.
Aoki also nodded with a solemn expression, understanding Drake's aning.
Kyogre had not yet fully recovered its strength, and precisely because it was still recovering, they still had a chance to fight.
Soon, under Salance's full-speed flight, a decent-sized uninhabited island appeared before the two of them.
Splish—splash—
Drake and Aoki jumped from Salance's back onto the ground.
Due to the continuous heavy rain, the ground here was already wet, and everywhere they stepped was muddy.
However, the two couldn't bother with such things. What they were facing now was a terrifying existence capable of destroying the entire Hoenn region. If they didn't do sothing, not to ntion the entire Hoenn region, the coastal cities would definitely suffer a catastrophic impact from such a terrifying enemy.
Several Poké Balls were thrown out without hesitation; Drake was preparing to go all out.
"Your strength is still a bit lacking. Later, don't try to clash head-on with Kyogre. If you can, just try to distract it from the side. If not, retreat imdiately.
Not just retreat a short distance, but retreat to the League and have Wallace prepare. Since Kyogre has appeared here, I think sothing unexpected might also happen with Team Magma.
This concerns the entire Hoenn region, Aoki, don't act impulsively." Drake looked at Aoki, even with a hint of giving final instructions.
Aoki looked directly into Drake's eyes and saw in them an old Hoenn native, willing to sacrifice everything for the Hoenn region in a desperate gamble.
He felt a touch in his heart, but still nodded firmly.
If nothing unexpected happened, Groudon would also revive. The probability of only one of these two ancient super-ancient Pokémon, as sworn rivals, appearing was almost zero.
As long as Kyogre and Groudon t, things wouldn't be so bad.
"Here it cos! Prepare for the first wave of impact!" Drake growled.
Aoki's chaotic thoughts were instantly cleared from his mind.
Super-ancient Pokémon, the legendary God of the Sea, let see how strong you, who have just awakened, truly are!
Aoki was not soone who hadn't seen the world. He had witnessed the battle between Ho-Oh and Giratina, and he clearly understood the great power a Legendary Pokémon should possess.
This Kyogre had not yet fully recovered its strength! Which ant there was a chance!
