Chapter 529: You Guessed It Again
Chapter 529: You Guessed It Again
Nightfall enveloped the city.
The vast Twin Dragon City did not succumb to the silence of night but instead, its vibrant neon lights mirrored the moon's radiance.
Jinghe and his two companions arrived at the outskirts of Twin Dragon City.
"Do you think something might happen?" Gardelia seemed a bit skeptical.
From the outside, Twin Dragon City appeared as bustling as ever.
"I don't know either," Jinghe shrugged.
This was the truth.
After all, even though he knew the Plasma Team would be causing trouble in Twin Dragon City, in the original story, it was Akroma who was in control of the Plasma Team when they targeted the city.
Moreover, by that time, Akroma had already mastered the power of Tyrantrum.
Just as Jinghe knew the Plasma Team might target Tyrantrum, this knowledge didn't provide him with a clear method or timeframe for their plan.
It would be unreasonable to expect the Unova League to station their top members at the Giant Cavern just because he suspected the Plasma Team's intentions.
Similarly, in Hoenn, he was aware of Team Magma and Team Aqua's plans to awaken Wailord and Pelipper, but how could he possibly know when they would make their move?
He could only rely on his intuition and prepare accordingly.
This situation was no different.
He merely suspected that the Plasma Team might be employing a diversionary tactic and targeting Twin Dragon City, but he couldn't be entirely sure.
He couldn't ask the Unova League to guard the city based solely on his hunch.
The Plasma Team was causing real trouble in Treasure City, and it would be unrealistic for the Unova League to shift their focus solely because of his suspicion.
Perhaps the Unova League also sensed the Plasma Team's diversion, but this was a calculated move, and there was nothing they could do about it.
The Unova League couldn't ignore the major incident in Treasure City, as the potential losses would be too great to bear.
As for informing them about the importance of the Gene Wedge and asking them to increase their protection, the Gene Wedge's holder, Xatu, was already a renowned top Trainer in the Unova region, possibly even rivaling the Elite Four in strength.
If they couldn't protect Xatu, how many more resources would they need to deploy?
Adek couldn't stay in Twin Dragon City indefinitely.
Moreover, there was another reason for Jinghe's uncertainty.
He wasn't sure if Akroma could master Tyrantrum's power in such a short time.
Without Tyrantrum, the Plasma Team would need to deploy at least half of the Seven Sages to defeat Xatu.
More importantly, this world seemed somewhat "chaotic" to Jinghe.
With elements from the anime, movies, specials, and games all intertwined, many events didn't unfold according to the timeline he was familiar with.
Not to mention, the Plasma Team's attack on Twin Dragon City was a plot point from the Pokemon Generations series, which wasn't even part of the main story.
Timeline?
That was a joke.
So, everything was just Jinghe's speculation.
Of course, it would be best if nothing happened in Twin Dragon City, as their presence there wouldn't make much difference either way.
But if something did happen, perhaps they could provide some assistance.
However, Jinghe didn't just sit idly by.
He briefly shared his suspicions with Adek.
Adek trusted him, and they weren't without "support."
Jinghe had come to understand the impact of his "butterfly effect."
Wherever he went, something would happen, and he wouldn't be exaggerating if he called himself the "Pokemon World's version of the Grim Reaper."
"You don't know?!" Gardelia exclaimed, her eyes widening slightly.
Jinghe replied with a hint of annoyance, "I'm not a worm in the Plasma Team's stomach. It's normal not to be certain."
If the actions of these evil organizations were so easy to predict, he would have already taken down Team Magma, Team Aqua, and Team Galactic in Hoenn and Sinnoh, earning himself a life of leisure and marrying a wealthy beauty.
"Then what about us?" Herona asked as she gently patted Gardelia's head.
It was no wonder Gardelia respected Herona so much; with just a touch, the formerly bristling kitten-like Gardelia instantly transformed into a docile house cat.
"Let's go find Mr. Xatu first," Jinghe suggested.
He still hoped nothing would happen.
But with so many flags raised, he was hesitant to take any action.
"That's a good idea," Herona agreed.
Gardelia furrowed her small Qiong nose and took out her phone, "Then I'll inform them to go find Mr. Xatu as well."
By 'them,' she meant Jinghe's 'support,' which included Gardelia's friends.
The Plasma Team's warship hadn't arrived yet, but some of their members had already reached the city.
"Seven Sages, Viola!"
Standing on the rooftop, a figure in thick clothing caught Xatu's attention, and his expression turned solemn.
Viola, one of the Seven Sages of the Plasma Team, had appeared in Twin Dragon City at this critical moment!
Xatu couldn't help but recall Jinghe's earlier phone call, warning him that the Plasma Team might be after the Gene Wedge in his possession.
He never expected the Plasma Team to show up just a few hours later.
"Mr. Xatu," Viola said, his slender figure contrasting with the bulky Sage's robe and hat.
He squinted, looking down at the muscular Xatu with a clear contrast in their physiques.
"Hand over the Gene Wedge to us Plasma Team for a bit. We'll return it when we're done!"
"Hmph!"
Xatu let out a cold huff.
As expected, it's about the Gene Wedge! But he didn't feel like wasting words with Viola; he was just a small fry, even with the so-called "Sage" title. Xatu directly tossed out a Poke Ball.
"Roar!"
A robust Dual Dragon appeared beside Xatu.
If you have the guts, come and get it yourself! Xatu wrapped his arms around himself, facing Viola with the pride of a Dragon-type Pokemon Trainer.
"Tsk!"
Viola seemed to have anticipated Xatu's reaction.
"Then let me see if you, the Dragon-type Pokemon Trainer, are as powerful as the rumors say!"
Viola waved his hand.
"Marnara!"
Two Marnara leaped from behind him, rushing towards Xatu and the Dual Dragon.
Viola specialized in Ice-type Pokemon, which was why he was so concerned about Tyrantrum. However, he didn't show much fear towards Xatu.
Ice-type Pokemon have an advantage over Dragon-type. The advantage is mine!
"Marnara, Freeze Beam!"
"Marnara!"
The two Marnara in the air had cold expressions, and their four arms pressed down almost simultaneously, shooting out two silver beams from their hands.
Xatu's expression remained unchanged, still hugging himself, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes as he faced the Marnara's attack.
Ice-type Pokemon do have an advantage over Dragon-type.
But it also depends on what kind of Ice-type Pokemon we're talking about!
These two Marnara aren't enough!
"Roar!"
The Dual Dragon opened its arms and roared, facing the two Freeze Beams without retreating and instead moving forward.
Bear!
A crimson dragon flame suddenly appeared on its body, erupting from its mouth and transforming into a giant dragon with fluttering wings in mid-air, directly confronting the two Freeze Beams.
Boom!
The collision of powers created a thick fog.
But before the fog could dissipate, the Dual Dragon tore through it and rushed towards the two Marnara.
The crimson giant axes gleamed with cold light, exuding a formidable and chilling aura.
Bang! Bang!
Two dragon claws struck, and the Marnara retreated.
Viola's eyebrows furrowed slightly at the sight.
It could only be said that Xatu was formidable.
"But no matter how powerful you are, you're still just one person."
Viola turned his head and said softly, "Action."
Boom!
An explosion occurred in a tall building in Twin Dragon City, causing panic.
This was the headache-inducing aspect of these evil organizations for the League; they could always exploit ordinary people, the League's soft spot.
Xatu's forehead bulged with veins.
Seeing his expression, a smile appeared on Viola's face.
This action wasn't just about him.
Although they didn't bring many people to avoid exposing their tracks too early, all those who came were the elite of the Plasma Team.
Moreover, Kehsi had also brought the Dark Triangle this time!
"Continue until he hands over the item." Viola spoke again.
But this time, he heard a different voice in his earpiece.
"This is Junsha from Twin Dragon City! You're under arrest!"
"International Police! Don't move, or we won't be polite!"
Hmm? Viola was taken aback.
What's going on?
Even though their operation wasn't particularly stealthy, the League's attention should have been drawn to Treasure City, a well-planned move. Why are there International Police in Twin Dragon City?
"Hmph!" Xatu scoffed, "You're only good at sneaking around."
This time, Viola's expression turned sour.
But it only lasted for a moment.
"Dark Triangle, directly capture Xatu!"
Buzz—
His words had just fallen.
In the shadows not far from Xatu, three figures appeared, standing on Xatu's three sides.
Forcibly capturing Xatu would make all the troubles disappear.
But just at that moment—
"Rapid Dragon, Dragon Dive!"
"Sharpedo, Dragon Dive!"
"Miss Gode, Dragon... no, Psychic Force!"
Miss Gode's resentment: Why are you two so in sync?
In the vast night sky, two giant dragons cloaked in dragon flames soared, their shimmering crimson resembling falling meteors as they slammed into the ground.
At this moment—
The residents of Twin Dragon City seemed to witness the fall of a meteor and the legend of the Twin Dragons, a legend of Twin Dragon City! The burning light resembled a sword tearing through the night sky.
In Viola and the Dark Triangle's eyes, it was blinding.
But in Xatu's eyes, this was the true form of Dragon-type Pokemon!
On a tall building nearby, Jinghe's clothes fluttered, one hand holding his hat, the other in his pocket, and his single lens glasses revealed a clear and calm gaze.
Beside him, Miss Gode pouted, seemingly dissatisfied with her previous slip of the tongue.
Herona gently brushed her wind-blown golden hair behind her ear and smiled, "It seems like your guess was right again."
Jinghe's mouth twitched.
Being right wasn't something to be happy about, but was your use of "again" a bit excessive?
However, it seemed the main character hadn't appeared yet?
Based on Viola and the Dark Triangle's words, the Plasma Team seemed a bit lacking.
Boom!
A massive boom sounded, signaling the official start of the "battle" in Twin Dragon City.
