Chapter 438: Jinghe: Initiating Plan B!
Chapter 438: Jinghe: Initiating Plan B!
Two towering structures stood tall, the iconic Time-Space Tower of Baiyang Town. The left tower was named "Time," while the right one was called "Space."
With a single slash, the tip of the left tower had been sheared off by half.
Above the towering spire, an eerie ripple spread, as if accompanied by the distortion of time and space, and a faint roar.
"What...what is that?"
Everyone in the square couldn't help but swallow their saliva as they witnessed the sudden removal of a corner of the Time-Space Tower.
Darkrai immediately abandoned the surrounding crowd and Pokemon, hovering in the air and creating a powerful gust of wind that blew up the dust around them.
With a stern expression, it roared towards the distorted area:
"Don't come here! Get out!"
As it spoke, it raised its hands and formed a black sphere, from which smaller spheres shot out, flying towards the distortion in the sky.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, another roar echoed from the distorted area in the sky.
The next moment—
A buzzing sound filled the air.
A crimson semi-circular slash flew out from the distortion, moving at an incredible speed.
Aerial Split Slash! Fortunately, this slash wasn't aimed at anyone in particular, but it swiftly passed by the crowd, slicing through some of the surrounding buildings.
As the blade's light passed by, everything in its path seemed to be obliterated, leaving a deep, clean gash in the ground and reducing the buildings on the other side to stardust, disappearing into nothingness.
Witnessing this scene, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
Could they block such a slash?
If they endured this attack, what would become of them?
Panic spread once more among the crowd, and it was evident on everyone's faces.
"I said, don't come here!" Darkrai roared again.
A deep blue sound wave pillar appeared in the distorted sky.
"Darkrai!" Jinghe hurriedly called out, "Stop roaring!"
If this continued, the area would be destroyed before the intended target even arrived.
Darkrai turned to look at Jinghe, then back at the sky.
In the end, it reluctantly descended.
At this moment, the people around them noticed Jinghe and the others who had just arrived.
"Teacher Jinghe! Teacher Jinghe, save us!"
"Teacher Jinghe! Waaah, waaah—Having you here is truly a blessing!"
For a moment, everyone seemed to have found a lifeline, gathering around him with tearful faces.
Seeing this, even Jinghe couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
They had said that Timia Luka and Palu Qia wanted to eliminate all the residents of this town, which would have taken some time.
But now, with just one Aerial Split Slash and Temporal Roar, they had wiped out everyone.
However, facing the pleas of these people, he couldn't refuse.
"Are those Timia Luka and Palu Qia?"
Sharon looked up, squinting.
In the hazy mist, amidst the flashes of lightning and dim light, two massive and faintly visible figures clashed and fought. With each collision, their forms became clearer, and the commotion grew louder.
Timia Luka! Palu Qia! Hearing these names, the panicked crowd froze in shock.
In Sinnoh, almost everyone had heard the legends of these two Legendary Pokemon, and now they were about to appear before them?
And in such a ferocious state?
Despair rose from the depths of their hearts.
But soon, everyone snapped back to reality.
They still had Teacher Jinghe, Miss Sharon, and Xi Ba King. At the very least, they had tall people to rely on!
So, despite the panic, miraculously, no further chaos ensued.
"It should be them," Jinghe nodded slowly.
He gripped Daye's shoulders and whispered, "Your moment of glory has arrived."
Daye's expression immediately fell, "Teacher Jinghe, even at a time like this, you're still joking?"
"Who's joking with you?" Jinghe's face remained serious.
Daye: "Ha, haha, hahaha..."
"Hahaha!" Xi Ba waved his arms, squeezed his shoulders, and twisted his neck, making a "grak-grak" sound. "I don't know if I can take it!"
Whether he could handle it or not, as the only Four Champions present and the highest-ranking League official, he had to stand firm!
The title of Champion was bestowed by the League and countless League members, and it came with corresponding responsibilities!
Moreover, Xi Ba turned to Jinghe and smiled, "Jinghe, together?"
He acknowledged Jinghe's strength.
Jinghe's lips twitched.
"Next time, for sure!"
"What should we do?" Darkrai flew back and landed beside Jinghe.
At this moment, the people around them realized that this Darkrai was Teacher Jinghe's Pokemon.
No wonder it was so powerful.
No wonder everyone had been unable to handle it but was willing to listen to Teacher Jinghe.
With this understanding, the crowd became more compliant.
What should they do? Jinghe glanced at the Time-Space Tower, which had been sheared off and might no longer function, and felt an intense headache.
This wasn't how it was in the movie!
Moreover, from the distorted mist above, it seemed likely that Timia Luka and Palu Qia would appear above the Time-Space Tower. If the tower still worked, it would be fine, but if not, the danger would be immense.
Therefore, the Time-Space Tower in Gaudi's Garden was also illogical; why not just place the viewing platform below?
At the top of the crowd, Jinghe glanced at Tonyu, who tightly held the "Sound Box," and Alice, who stood by his side.
In a deep voice, Jinghe said, "Tonyu, give me the Sound Box. You two shouldn't go up there yet. We don't know if the Time-Space Tower can continue to function."
Tonyu and Alice exchanged a glance, and eventually, they nodded and handed the Sound Box to Jinghe.
Tonyu also explained how to use and play it.
"Baron Tongue Licker." Jinghe spotted the distinctive Tongue Licker in the crowd.
"I'm Albert, Teacher Jinghe," Albert said, showing Jinghe the sash slung over his shoulder.
"Good, Baron Tongue Licker," Jinghe nodded.
Albert Baron: "..."
"Baron Tongue Licker, as a baron, it's your responsibility to protect this place. You should lead everyone to hide in the Pokemon Center. I fear this place will soon become a battlefield." Jinghe added.
Upon hearing this, Albert Baron immediately stood up and shouted to the crowd, "Everyone, follow Baron Tongue Licker!"
With Jinghe's words and Albert Baron's influence in Baiyang Town, the crowd obediently followed him and left.
"You two should go too," Jinghe said to Tonyu and Alice.
Amidst the chaotic footsteps, the crowd gradually dispersed.
Jinghe heaved a slight sigh of relief.
At least, for now, the target isn't too big.
"What now?" Darkrai asked eagerly.
"Eat."
Jinghe took out a box of Energy Cubes and handed it to Darkrai.
"Eat... eat?"
Darkrai's eyes widened in disbelief, thinking it had misheard.
"You just fought, and your energy consumption is significant. Restore yourself first, or you won't be able to fight at full strength later."
Jinghe looked up at the twisted mist in the sky.
Timia Luka and Palu Qia were getting closer to Baiyang Town, and they could appear at any moment.
At this time, even a little recovery would be helpful.
If Timia Luka and Palu Qia appear later and don't destroy the Time-Space Tower, they can try to lure them away and test the Time-Space Tower.
But not now.
If they go up now, they might collide with those two.
If the Time-Space Tower is unusable, they'll have to resort to the backup plan.
"That's right. Eat well to fight well!" Xi Ba agreed immediately.
He sat on the ground, seemingly unbothered, and took out a handful of Anger Buns, eating them one after another.
"Hengga~"
Gramps emerged from Jinghe's shadow, gesturing for Darkrai not to be nervous. Then, he took out a box of Energy Cubes and started eating them himself.
Darkrai looked at them helplessly.
How could it have the mood to eat now? Hmm?
After taking two bites, Darkrai, who had expected the Energy Cubes to be tasteless, suddenly felt its eyes brighten.
These Energy Cubes... delicious!
Moreover, it could clearly sense its lost energy slowly recovering within its body.
"Hengga?"
How's the taste? Not bad, huh? Gramps looked at Darkrai with a hint of pride.
Darkrai glanced at the Energy Cubes in its hand and recalled the food it had eaten over the years.
Damn, what a waste of life!
"If a fight breaks out later, try not to take on both of them at once," Jinghe advised.
Darkrai looked at him in surprise.
Taking on Timia Luka and Palu Qia simultaneously?
"Do I look like a tiger?"
Jinghe patted its shoulder.
You know what I mean.
"Do you have a plan?" Sharon asked as she walked up to Jinghe.
"Sort of," he smiled wryly.
Facing Timia Luka and Palu Qia, no plan might keep up with the changes.
The only thing that might give him some confidence was figuring out how to get Reshiram out and take it for a spin.
But honestly, Jinghe didn't think he could control or command Reshiram, especially when compared to Darkrai. If Reshiram encountered those two, it would likely go berserk too.
With the collision of three parties, the probability of calming the situation would be even lower.
"That's good." Sharon nodded, feeling relieved.
Okay?
"Later... remember to run far away."
"Huh?"
Sharon tilted her head.
"Don't foolishly charge forward. If you get a chance, find a way to contact the outside world. It's more reliable than fighting inside."
Hearing this, Sharon smiled and looked at him, whispering, "I understand."
Sis, your expression doesn't seem like you understood.
Boom!!
Suddenly, a thunderous roar tore through the air, and a massive crack appeared in the sky, as if splitting it in half.
A terrifying roar echoed.
The swift cutting strike flew out of the crack, slicing through the sky and leaving a deep mark, as if it had been erased.
"They're here!" Darkrai leaped to its feet.
Two terrifying deities appeared in the sky above Baiyang Town amidst the thunder.
For a moment, thunderclaps filled the air, and the thick mist within the town began to shrink.
Wherever they passed, all buildings were annihilated.
Roar!!
Palu Qia roared, and the red orb on its shoulder blade radiated a scarlet hue. As it waved its arm, a powerful slash was unleashed.
A shallow blue aura immediately surrounded Timia Luka's body, freezing time around it and blocking the slash.
The next moment—
"Roar!!!"
Timia Luka roared, and a deep azure beam, concentrated with the power of time, shot out. Palu Qia didn't hesitate to freeze the surrounding space, blocking the impact.
The two deities had clashed before, so when their attacks failed, they collided again.
Boom!
Two colossal beasts fell from the sky, crushing buildings and reducing everything in their path to rubble. The ground shook with terror, rippling outwards from the center, accompanied by the screams of the residents of Baiyang Town.
Hoo—
Darkrai suddenly rose, its black and white clouds swirling wildly, its aura expanding and intensifying as it rushed towards the descending giants, eyes blazing with anger.
This town, the town it had guarded for a hundred years, how could it allow such wanton destruction?
"Get out of here, you two!"
A powerful wave of energy rippled, ruffling the hair of the few people nearby.
Timia Luka and Palu Qia, who had just landed, looked at the suddenly intervening Darkrai and, sensing its aura, couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
This Darkrai had some strength.
Darkrai spread its arms, and black energy gathered like flowing water between its hands, malice spreading thickly.
Malicious Aura!!
Humm—
Simultaneously, it launched an attack at the two giants!
Even Jinghe found this move bold.
You're really bold!
I thought I told you not to challenge both at once, but you went straight for both of them.
Humm—
Time froze around Timia Luka, and space condensed around Palu Qia.
As expected, Darkrai's attack caused no damage.
But the next moment—
Timia Luka and Palu Qia's eyes flashed, and they counterattacked together.
Boom!!
Darkrai was sent flying, crashing into a large area of buildings and trees.
However, it quickly flew up again, staring at the two massive creatures.
"This Darkrai is really strong," Hippowdon exclaimed, seeing Darkrai fly up again as if nothing had happened.
Roar!!
Darkrai's appearance surprised Timia Luka and Palu Qia.
But at this moment, in their eyes, the only opponent was the Darkrai in front of them. A mere Darkrai was not worth worrying about!
So, after knocking Darkrai away, they collided with each other again.
With each collision and contact, the dense fog around them became thicker, and the speed of its contraction increased.
"It's our turn!"
Hippowdon, now full, patted Daye's shoulder and laughed twice, "I'm going!"
He immediately started running towards the two monstrous creatures.
There was no other way.
As a Fighting-type Four Champion, he and Daye lacked Flying-type Pokemon.
Jinghe didn't stop him.
Because he knew that this was the duty of the Four Champions.
Even if Hippowdon wasn't a Sinnoh Four Champion, and even if he knew he wasn't a match for Timia Luka and Palu Qia, when facing these two, who else could be at the forefront if not him, a Four Champion?
Looking at Hippowdon's back, Daye's eyes lit up with determination.
Without hesitation, he threw out a Poke Ball, summoning a Flame Monkey.
"Teacher Jinghe, Big Sis, let's go too!"
Good for you, Daye, for having such resolve.
Alright.
Let's put the notebook aside for now.
Jinghe took a deep breath.
Timia Luka and Palu Qia, the battle of the two Prime Deities.
In the special episode, the unbeatable Dagu, along with the Legendary Pillars, fought the Sinnoh Twit Pair for 22 days, and none of them could hold out. No one here could withstand them.
Fortunately, there was still a Darkrai.
Unfortunately, Daye's coolness lasted only three seconds, and a terrifying aftershock spread, blowing him back, tumbling, and Flame Monkey couldn't hold him.
He rolled past Jinghe and Sharon.
"I'll hold them back; you guys go and see if the Time-Space Tower is still usable!"
Darkrai shouted from the air.
Its expression was extremely stern, and it firmly added:
"Rest assured, as long as I don't fall, I will never let them touch the Time-Space Tower!"
As soon as the words fell—
Boom!!
A vertical azure beam swept across, and the towering Time-Space Tower instantly turned into countless sparkling dust particles.
Darkrai: "."
Jinghe: "."
Sharon: "."
"You better not talk now!" Jinghe shouted.
He realized something.
This Darkrai had a bit of a jinx. When it said to get out, the attack came, and when it said to protect the Time-Space Tower, the tower was destroyed.
Jinghe was a bit scared that Darkrai might say it wanted to protect him next, and the next Aerial Split Slash would probably strike him.
"Listen to me now!" Jinghe spoke in a tone that brooked no refusal.
Darkrai narrowed its eyes, just about to say "Why," when Jinghe added, "Ten Energy Cubes!"
Darkrai: "Okay."
"How?" Sharon asked.
"First, we need to separate these two guys. Every time their powers collide, Baiyang Town will be annihilated!"
Moreover, one of them relied on time, and the other on space, yet they couldn't hit each other when they clashed with their skills.
If they could be separated, there might be a chance to defeat them one by one or to calm them down individually.
"Separate?!" Darkrai looked at Jinghe with a "I'm not stupid" expression, "How do we separate them in this situation?"
"Cha~!!"
"Wuu~!!"
At that moment, a distant voice could be heard.
It was a Swift Dragon, and on its back stood a "Dragon Knight," the Hammer Sister Forge Master, swinging her hammer.
Jinghe smiled slightly.
"I have a way."
He took off his coat and handed it to Gramps.
"Now, activate Plan B!"
