Chapter 463: The Visitor from the Sky, Deoquaxis

Chapter 463: The Visitor from the Sky, Deoquaxis



In a secret base in Verde Valley City, a member of the Lava Team rushed in with urgent news.

"Fire, something's wrong! The Union Police Station and Miss Junsha in Verde Valley City are suddenly on the move!"

A middle-aged man, also dressed in Lava Team attire but with a more robust build, furrowed his brows and spoke in a deep voice, "Don't panic!"

He stood up and approached the massive communication device, asking, "Has something happened? What's their objective?"

As he spoke, he flipped a switch on the device, initiating a communication link.

"I-I don't know," the Lava Team member replied, his voice trembling.

Fire Village's calm demeanor gradually soothed the Lava Team member, "We're not sure yet!"

At that moment, the secret communication device connected, and the large screen projected the image of the Lava Team's leader, Crimson Flame Pine.

He sat in an office, his hands resting on the desk, crossed in front of him, and asked in a calm tone, "Fire Village, what's going on?"

Fire Village bowed slightly, "Leader, the Union Police Station in Verde Valley City has suddenly become active, but the reason is unknown. Should we temporarily cancel the raid on the Verde Valley Space Center?"

The Union Police Station was active?

Crimson Flame Pine's eyes, hidden behind his glasses, narrowed slightly, "Not many people know about the plan, and there's no chance of it being leaked. It seems that some other incident has caused chaos, and this is a good opportunity."

The more chaos there was, the better it was for them, as long as they weren't the target.

"The plan remains unchanged," Crimson Flame Pine stated firmly, but added, "Explore the reason as much as possible, and if necessary, lend a hand."

"Understood," Fire Village nodded slightly.

"I'll send someone..."

Before he could finish, the communication was abruptly cut off.

The sudden power outage in the base, without any warning, caused quite a stir.

Fire Village, however, remained relatively calm. He had anticipated potential chaos but hadn't expected it to arrive so swiftly.

As he quickly calmed the base, he turned to the Lava Team member and ordered, "Get the insider ready. At my signal, act immediately!"

"Yes!"

Verde Valley City, Daisuke's Residence.

Daisuke and Jinghe had just finished reporting the potential situation to the Union, and they arrived at Daisuke's home in Verde Valley City.

It wasn't an exaggeration to say that Daisuke had a "home" in every town across the entire Hoenn Region.

"Teacher, is the situation that serious?" Daisuke's expression grew solemn.

Jinghe's conversation with Genji Tenno had not been hidden from him; he had overheard the entire conversation.

Upon learning that even Rayquaza might make an appearance, he understood the gravity of the situation.

However, he couldn't fathom why Rayquaza might descend upon Hoenn.

Jinghe offered a helpless smile and spread his hands, "If I'm overthinking it, it might be better."

Perhaps the situation wouldn't turn out as bad as it seemed.

The appearance of the purple-core Deoquaxis was certain; the only difference was when it would find Verde Valley City.

If it sensed something, coming directly to Verde Valley City to find the green core gem in Jinghe's possession would be the simplest task.

Jinghe would not hesitate to reunite them.

But there was a problem.

The movie, "The Visitor from the Sky, Deoquaxis," was set in Laurus City, but the deviation here was significant.

Moreover, the scene witnessed by Gramps and Tyrogue was not filmed in Verde Valley City. It was said to have been shot at a filming location on a hill north of Maple Leaf Town.

This indicated that the purple-core Deoquaxis first appeared near that hill.

It might be on its way to Verde Valley City right now.

However, no one could guarantee that Rayquaza wouldn't intercept it along the way.

If Rayquaza and the purple-core Deoquaxis clashed during their journey, there was no doubt that it would cause significant damage to the entire Hoenn Region.

This was why the Union couldn't focus all its attention on Verde Valley City; they had to monitor and guard the route.

As a result, Jinghe's early warning was just that—a warning. It could only make the Hoenn Union's response a little faster.

However, Jinghe also used his authority to have the Union police in Verde Valley City work overtime, keeping a close eye on the city and its surroundings, and reporting any developments promptly.

This wasn't an abuse of power.

"So, that purple aurora is the signal?"

Daisuke had no doubts about Jinghe's judgment, but he was a bit perplexed.

"It's another Deoquaxis sending 'information' to its companion," Jinghe said as he walked into the house.

"Information?" Daisuke blinked.

"Have you studied this aspect, Teacher?"

"I know a little," Jinghe replied vaguely.

Jinghe entered Daisuke's kitchen, which was larger than his own bedroom.

"By the way, Daisuke, your kitchen must be well-stocked, right?" Jinghe looked around, but couldn't find the refrigerator.

"Food?"

Daisuke was taken aback but quickly realized what Jinghe meant. He gently pressed a button on the wall.

An entire wall silently slid open, revealing a massive refrigerator.

Jinghe clicked his tongue.

Sorry, poverty had once again limited his imagination.

"You need to eat to work?" Daisuke had some understanding of Jinghe, so he guessed his intentions.

"Not exactly," Jinghe walked to the refrigerator and examined its contents, "I'm preparing food in advance to avoid not being able to entertain our guest properly when they arrive."

"Guest?"

Jinghe neither confirmed nor denied, but his tone was calm, "If the worst-case scenario happens, we'll need its 'loyalty'."

Sinnoh Region, Watertube City.

Wusong sat gazing at the bright moon outside, his eyes filled with helplessness.

It wasn't just about working overtime or extra shifts.

Now, he glanced at the time.

It was almost midnight, and he had received a sudden call to come to work, asking him to travel from Sinnoh to Hoenn. Did they have no conscience?

"Wubo..."

"Wusong whispered.

The butler sitting in front heard Wusong's soft call and looked up in confusion, "What's the matter, young master?"

"How about... we move to a new place in a couple of days?"

"Move?"

The butler was taken aback.

Didn't Wusong love Watertube City the most?

Surrounded by seawater, located at the southernmost tip of the Sinnoh Region, the climate here was relatively more pleasant.

Moreover, the geographical location had made Watertube City a transportation hub.

To the east was the largest and most developed city in the Sinnoh Region, Jubilife City, and to the north, the waterways connected to every corner of the Sinnoh Region.

To the southwest was the Hoenn Region, and to the southeast was the Johto Region, making it an extremely advantageous geographical location with extremely convenient transportation.

Not to mention, the Watertube Library, one of the top libraries in the entire Pokemon world, could satisfy Wusong's thirst for knowledge with its vast collection.

"Why move when we're doing just fine here? Watertube City is the closest city to the Hoenn Region."

Wusong turned his head, looked up at the sky, and said with a hint of "grievance":

"It's just too close to the Hoenn Region."

Hoenn, Crystal City.

As the closest Hoenn city to Verde Valley City, the Crystal Gym Leader, Adam, and his disciple, Mikuri, were currently at a port.

"Mikuri, be careful."

As a Gym Leader and top Coordinator Trainer, Adam was aware of the alert issued by the League.

Unlike Adam, who had to stay in Crystal City, his disciple and Da Wu's friend, Mikuri, was preparing to head to Verde Valley City to provide support.

Mikuri smiled elegantly, "Don't worry, Master."

Da Wu was his friend, and Teacher Jinghe had greatly helped him. With their request for support and such a short distance, Mikuri naturally had to go.

Under the moonlight, he exuded an elegant demeanor, confident and composed.

"Even if not, Teacher Jinghe is holding down the fort in Verde Valley City."

The "legendary" man who could defeat Dialga and Palkia with a single punch, Adam didn't fully believe in the exaggerated rumors, but the existence of such rumors must represent some truth.

Saying that he could defeat Dialga and Palkia, two legendary Pokemon, with a single punch, was a bit exaggerated.

But defeating Rayquaza, a legendary Pokemon, with a single punch seemed more plausible.

"It's a good opportunity to broaden your horizons. Soon, this Gym will be handed over to you," Adam said with a smile.

After passing on the Gym Leader position, he could finally travel and explore, a thought that excited him.

"Alright!"

Mikuri tossed a Poke Ball, and a Sharpedo appeared on the water's surface.

After inheriting the Gym Leader position, he would be able to take better care of Nagi.

He leaped gracefully onto Sharpedo's back and waved goodbye to Adam.

A voyage on the moonlit sea.

It indeed had a unique charm.

Buzz—

The brightly lit Verde Valley City suddenly went dark as if the entire city had lost power, plunging into darkness, and the entire island fell into gloom.

Sounds of chaos filled every corner of the city—exclamations, fear, and arguments.

Fortunately, the League Police Station in Verde Valley City, which Jinghe had mobilized in advance, came to the rescue. Miss Junsha led a group of League officers to quickly calm the chaos and reassure the residents.

"What... what is that?!"

"Aurora! It's the aurora!"

"But shouldn't the aurora only appear at the North and South Poles? How can it appear in Verde Valley City?"

"So beautiful."

In the darkness, Verde Valley City's sky lit up with purple auroras, like ripples, and the ethereal light seemed to convey a message, bringing a faint glow to the city.

Miss Junsha wasn't as thrilled as the ordinary residents. She remembered Jinghe's instructions.

"Notify immediately."

Just as she was about to give orders through the walkie-talkie, she realized that Verde Valley City had not only lost power but also all signals seemed to be cut off.

However, Miss Junsha was decisive. She put down the walkie-talkie and quickly climbed onto the roof of a police car, shouting:

"Everyone! Head to the shelter for emergency evacuation! Trainers with Electric-type Pokemon, please gather here!"

Evacuation?

Although they didn't know what had happened, Miss Junsha was well-respected among the people.

After a brief moment of chaos, the residents of Verde Valley City, with the help of the League officers, made their way to the evacuation site.

Meanwhile, some Trainers with Electric-type Pokemon and a certain level of confidence in their abilities gathered in front of Miss Junsha.

"Everyone, follow me to the power plant to restore power to Verde Valley City!" Miss Junsha ordered.

The chaotic Verde Valley City quickly became orderly due to the early mobilization.

"Hengga!"

The Gramps in the garden shouted.

The aurora!

The little ones looked up at the night sky, each captivated by the beautiful aurora.

Jinghe, who was cooking, also came to the garden with Da Wu due to the sudden power outage.

Looking at the purple aurora in the sky, their expressions weren't as natural as Gramps'.

"Where are you..." Jinghe said slowly, gazing at the magnificent purple aurora.

"Hmm?" Da Wu was puzzled.

"The meaning behind this aurora."

Did Teacher Jinghe really understand the "language" of the aurora? As the aurora appeared, Jinghe's dormant phone became active again, with green light flashing on the screen.

All electrical and communication devices had lost their functions, except for Jinghe's phone, which could still work within a "local area network."

[█████]: Friend! Friend!

When connected, it read—Friend, where are you!

I didn't expect to find Verde Valley City so quickly.

I thought it might take some time for the purple core Deoxys to come, and it might even be intercepted by Rayquaza along the way. I didn't expect it to arrive so fast.

This was actually good news.

Now, all he had to do was find the purple Deoxys, hand over the green core gem in his hand, and then...

If all went well, he could send Deoxys away within an hour!

Waveguide!

Jinghe narrowed his eyes, and the waveguide power spread out from him, trying to locate Deoxys with its help.

Sensing Jinghe's actions, the Martial Bear Master and Charcoal Little Servant also paused their appreciation, exchanging a glance, and both activated their wave guide power.

The three wave guide powers converged, expanding the search range.

However, Verde Valley City was simply too vast. Even with the combined power of the three, it only covered a small portion of the entire city.

"Hngga!"

At this moment, Gramps, with his sharp eyes, exclaimed and pointed at the signal tower atop the tallest building in Verde Valley City, the Verde Valley Space Center.

Staring intently, they could only vaguely see a silhouette standing tall against the moon and aurora.

How dare you! Gramps clenched his fist and pounded his palm.

This guy... is even better at it than me and Darkrai! Gramps had just learned to stand on a pole from Darkrai, but today he encountered someone even better, standing atop such a high tower!

However, Gramps stuck out his tongue and licked his lips twice.

Since I saw it, I can't blame myself for learning it. Following Gramps' reminder, Jinghe retracted his wave guide power and also noticed the figure standing atop the tower of the Verde Valley Space Center—Deoxys!

At this moment, Deoxys was indeed standing atop the tallest tower of the Verde Valley Space Center, overlooking the entire city.

The purple crystal-like energy on its chest glowed faintly, maintaining the aurora in the night sky.

The vertical scanner on its face kept scanning.

In its line of sight, everything before it was blurry.

Due to biological species differences, Deoxys' way of "seeing" the world was different from most other creatures.

It identified beings through magnetic fields.

Therefore, the magnetic fields generated by various electrical appliances within Verde Valley City, as well as the magnetic fields produced by humans and Pokemon, all interfered with its vision.

Thus, it used its ability to cut off the entire city's circuits, eliminating the interference from electrical equipment.

In its line of sight now were people and Pokemon moving around everywhere.

This greatly increased the difficulty of finding its companion.

However, Deoxys discovered that most of the humans and Pokemon in the city seemed to be intentionally gathering in one direction, clearing out the entire city.

Although it didn't understand why the humans and Pokemon were doing this, it undoubtedly made its search for its companion much easier. So, instead of refusing, it stood atop the tower, waiting.

Waiting for all the people and Pokemon to evacuate.

But soon, Deoxys also noticed a small group of people approaching the Verde Valley Space Center where it was located.

Deoxys' four arms, resembling whips, swayed like a whip.

Suddenly, they froze, and the four whips intertwined, transforming into two arms. It leaped lightly and flew towards the crowd below, approaching the Verde Valley Space Center.

Drive them away!

At the same time, Jinghe and Da Wu also noticed Deoxys' actions.

Jinghe retracted most of the small creatures and flipped onto the back of the Rapid Dragon, quickly equipping its armor. He patted it lightly.

"Let's go!"

"Wuuu~"

The Rapid Dragon let out a long cry, flapped its wings, and shot forward.

Since Deoxys couldn't find them, Jinghe decided to "deliver them to its doorstep"!

"Golurk!"

Da Wu also threw out a Poke Ball, summoning Golurk, and followed Jinghe towards the Verde Valley Space Center.

"Huo Cun executive, it noticed us!"

The group approaching the Verde Valley Space Center was none other than the Lava Team! They were planning to take advantage of the chaos in Verde Valley City to enter the Space Center and take what they needed.

However, they didn't expect that this suddenly appearing, or rather, the unknown Pokemon that brought chaos to the entire Verde Valley City, would immediately fix its gaze on them.

Huo Cun's face turned grim, and without hesitation, he threw out two Poke Balls.

"Camerupt, Growlithe, stop it!"

Gaining a little time, they had already obtained the exact location of the items they needed. Once they found them, they would leave immediately!

Bear!!

A pillar of fiery heat rose as Growlithe bared its sharp fangs and ferociously bit at the descending Deoxys.

Bang!!

However, both the flames and Growlithe's bite were blocked by the barrier that rose around Deoxys.

Deoxys showed no expression, but its hands twitched, transforming back into four whips that converged on its chest. A rapidly flashing energy ball quickly gathered and slammed into Camerupt and Growlithe.

Boom!!

Amid the booming sound, Camerupt and Growlithe were simultaneously knocked away, falling to the ground and losing their fighting ability.

Deoxys' gaze swept over Huo Cun and the others. It didn't bear any malice; it merely wanted to drive them away.

But in Huo Cun's eyes, Deoxys' strength...

A sinister look flashed in his eyes, and he took out a bottle the size of half a palm. Inside, there seemed to be a transparent liquid that swayed slightly.

"Then let's make it more chaotic!"

Huo Cun threw the bottle towards Deoxys, which was also blocked by the barrier.

Click—

However, Deoxys wasn't surprised. It merely let out a cold laugh and led the group to run towards the Verde Valley Space Center again.

The glass bottle on the ground shattered, and an invisible, transparent liquid with a peculiar energy quickly formed a mist that enveloped Deoxys.

Buzz—

Deoxys' body suddenly staggered.

A nameless feeling rose in its heart, and its eyes glowed red.

At the same time, a dragon's roar that shook the clouds resounded in the sky above Verde Valley City, causing Jinghe and Da Wu, who were flying halfway, to stop and look up.

A pale green terror loomed in the clouds, faintly visible.

Jinghe's expression froze slightly.

I didn't expect... it to come so quickly.

He let out a dry laugh. "Da Wu, can you block it?"

Da Wu: "???"
