Chapter 612: Mega Skyborne and Mega Ultra Dream, Fladarius' Shock!
Chapter 612: Mega Skyborne and Mega Ultra Dream, Fladarius' Shock!
Hoenn Region, Ruins of the Colossal Boulder Relic.
Fladarius gazed at the wooden tablet in his hand and spoke to Daio and Alane, "The path to the Megalith begins with a gate, and the key to opening it is the radiance of two stones. Once the light of the two stones is gathered, a new path will emerge. These stones must be referring to the radiant Key Stones, right?"
Daio pondered for a moment, "That's a possibility. Regardless, we should give it a try."
Alane, standing beside him, nodded calmly.
The two exchanged a glance and then walked to the front, where two stone pillars resembling a gate stood on a raised platform. They placed their Key Stones on the pillars, one on each side.
The next second, a dazzling, colorful light burst forth from the Key Stones.
The light flowed like a liquid, seeping into the stone pillars, and in an instant, the entire platform was bathed in brilliant radiance.
An invisible force rippled outward, forming a Prismatic Cloud Ladder that extended endlessly into the clouds.
Even Daio, from a prestigious background, couldn't help but be amazed by this bizarre spectacle.
Who could have created such a mechanism?
As far as Daio knew, there had always been legends about the Megalith, and wooden tablets containing records related to it.
He had obtained one half by chance, and the other half was in Fladarius' possession.
So, who had created the wooden tablets and placed the Megalith in these ruins?
The ancient people possessed such incredible technology...
"So beautiful!" Manon exclaimed, her eyes turning into stars as she gazed at the rainbow ladder before her.
Fladarius' eyes flashed with a hint of fervor, but he quickly concealed it. With a calm demeanor, he stepped onto the rainbow staircase and addressed the group, "Let's go. The origin of Super Evolution is likely at the top of this ladder."
"Yes!"
Alane responded and followed him.
Manon trailed behind, with Daio bringing up the rear.
As they ascended, the scenery below gradually shrank. This rainbow staircase had no railings, and looking down from it evoked an uncontrollable fear of falling and becoming a meat patty.
The higher they climbed, the more tense Manon became, "Alane, it's so high up here!"
Alane glanced down calmly and reassured her, "Don't look down, Manon. Just treat it like climbing stairs and keep moving forward."
"I understand!" Manon shifted her gaze forward.
The group continued their ascent, and soon they reached the top. After passing through the clouds, they found themselves at the end of the rainbow staircase, where a towering mountain stood.
Perched atop the mountain was an ancient relic.
"That's the place, no doubt," Fladarius declared.
The four of them arrived at a place resembling a plaza, with a circular indentation in the center and an altar on each side.
Daio strode forward and examined the altars. He quickly spotted an ancient inscription and translated it, "Placing different Key Stones on the two altars... Is this the method to summon the Megalith? I'm certain of it! The Megalith is right here! Alane, go to that one."
"Understood."
Alane acknowledged and stepped forward.
They placed their Key Stones on the altars, and the next second, a colorful light emanated from the Key Stones, as if resonating with some kind of substance.
The light followed the patterns on the altars and spread downward, eventually reaching the ground.
"Boom!"
A sound reverberated from below, indicating the activation of some mechanism.
The stone door of the circular indentation opened, revealing a colossal Key Stone glowing with colorful radiance.
Daio's pupils constricted, "We've finally found the legendary Megalith!"
"The origin of Mega Evolution..." Alane looked down at the Key Stone bracelet on his wrist, "The Evolution Key Stone is resonating too."
Having achieved their goal, Fladarius took out a communicator and spoke into it, "It's me. We've found what we were looking for."
"We've locked onto the target and will arrive shortly," a voice replied from the other end.
As soon as the words were spoken, the sound of an engine's roar filled the sky.
Daio looked up and saw a plane descending from above.
Vehicles equipped with various precision instruments emerged from the aircraft's cabin, surrounding the Megalith in the center.
Researchers from Team Magma, clad in white lab coats, rapidly tapped on their keyboards, analyzing the Megalith's data.
"What's going on here?" Daio furrowed his brows slightly.
Fladarius maintained a calm tone, "First, we need to analyze the composition of the Megalith; after all, this is a significant discovery."
"Report! After testing, the Megalith's waveform matches that of the Super Stone... No! Its heat far exceeds that of the Super Stone, and it's still rising!"
As the researcher's exclamation echoed, the Megalith erupted with a dazzling light, followed by an invisible energy rippling through the sky.
Fladarius crossed his arms, his gaze fixed on the Megalith, a slight curve forming at the corner of his mouth.
With this Megalith, his plan could finally come to fruition.
His mind flashed back to the past.
In his earlier days, he had led Team Magma in aiding impoverished communities.
But as time passed, people began to take their actions for granted.
Moreover, the humans in this world only knew how to quarrel and plunder, polluting what was once a beautiful world.
Cleansing these people was no longer feasible, and creating a new, beautiful world free from conflict and greed required these sacrifices.
So, he was going to lead the Flareblaze Team to destroy this terrible world, annihilate those ugly humans, and then guide a select group of humans who met the requirements of the new world to create a beautiful utopia.
There would be no violence, no disputes, and absolutely no crime.
And now, as long as this massive stone and the Crown of Baida City were combined, the existing world could be destroyed.
Looking at the massive stone before him, Fladarius seemed to see the beautiful utopia beckoning to him.
But at that moment, the weather took a sudden turn.
The once clear sky was instantly shrouded by dark clouds, blocking out the sun, and the world darkened in an instant.
Bolts of lightning erupted within the clouds, and thunder cracked on the horizon.
The people in the ruins immediately looked up in alertness.
"What's going on?" Daio gazed at the strange sky, inexplicably sensing a familiar feeling.
Fladarius's expression turned grave, and he didn't speak, but a bad premonition stirred within him.
"Look!" Manon's voice came from the side.
Everyone turned to look, and they saw the pitch-black clouds above start to swirl, forming a black tornado out of thin air!
The next moment, a black, dragon-shaped figure emerged from the vortex.
Alane's eyes widened, "That's..."
Daio instantly recognized the Pokemon, "It's Skyborne!"
The legendary Pokemon Skyborne, which had previously appeared in the Luli Sea to stop the battle between the Earth God and the Ocean God, was now here!
As Skyborne appeared, a terrifying energy erupted from the massive stone.
The energy seemed to be drawn by Skyborne in the sky, frantically converging towards it.
When the energy reached its critical point, a dazzling multicolored light erupted from Skyborne, enveloping it.
The Imperial Organ within Skyborne's body frantically absorbed the energy from the massive stone.
And during this process, its appearance rapidly changed.
The first change was in its size; Skyborne's already massive body became even larger. Its pitch-black scales shimmered like deep obsidian, radiating an air of mystery.
Ancient golden patterns covered its entire body, and a red "Δ" symbol appeared on its forehead. A pair of horns extended from its lower jaw, arching forward in front of its mouth like a guard, with golden tendrils extending from the horns, resembling ribbons, connecting the horns and forming an "∞" pattern.
After a moment, along with a dragon's roar that echoed through the heavens, Skyborne's surrounding light exploded, and the Sky God finally revealed its true form.
An aura of dominance and disdain for the world surged forth...
This scene left everyone in the ruins dumbfounded.
Skyborne had transformed!
Daio muttered in disbelief, "Did Skyborne Mega Evolve too?"
Suddenly, Manon's exclamation came from the side.
"Look! There seems to be someone standing on Skyborne's head!"
"What?" Alane was slightly startled.
He immediately looked up and indeed saw a blurry figure standing on Skyborne's head.
Someone... What was that person's intention? Fladarius felt a bad premonition stir within him again.
The worst-case scenario was that the person might also be here to compete for the massive stone.
At that moment, high above in the sky, Ultra Dream stared at her palm.
That energy...
She had also felt a surge of energy entering her body, as if she had gained some new ability.
What was it?
Ultra Dream instinctively tried, and the next moment, her body erupted with the same light as Skyborne.
When the light dissipated,
A small, infant-like Pokemon with a large head and a long, trailing tail appeared behind Shizuru.
Seeing this, Shizuru was slightly taken aback.
This was... Super Mewtwo Y?
What was going on? Could it be that the massive stone also had an effect on Ultra Dream?
Confusion filled Ultra Dream's eyes as well.
But now didn't seem like the right time to discuss this. Seeing that Skyborne had absorbed enough energy to Mega Evolve, Shizuru asked, "What do you intend to do?"
Mega Skyborne locked its gaze on the massive stone below, and a dragon's roar erupted from its mouth, "Roar!"
Its original intention was to destroy the massive stone because its presence in this world would lead to a conflict between Groudon and Kyogre, bringing disaster to the world!
But with Groudon and Kyogre now residing in the World Tree, that concern was no longer necessary.
After a moment's thought, Skyborne decided to take the stone away and absorb it slowly.
The massive stone contained an enormous amount of energy, so powerful that Skyborne had only absorbed a small portion of the exposed energy to transform into this form.
Even it dared not devour the stone all at once.
So, the best course of action now was to take it back to the World Tree and absorb it gradually.
Mega Skyborne immediately conveyed its intentions to Shizuru.
Shizuru naturally had no objections, "Alright, since that's the case, let's get moving!"
Mega Skyborne's majestic figure plunged from the sky.
Its target was clearly the massive stone!
Fladarius exclaimed, "Not good! Skyborne is going to take the stone!"
Alane's expression turned grave. He took out the Poke Ball of Shining Golduck from his waist, and with a flash of white light, Shining Golduck appeared in mid-air.
"Shining Golduck, Mega Evolve!" Alane shouted.
A multicolored light enveloped Shining Golduck's body, and when the light dissipated, Mega Golduck X, with its black body and blue flames in its mouth, appeared before everyone.
"Charizard, stop it!"
"Roar!" Charizard let out a deep growl, spreading its dragon wings to face Skyborne.
"Use Flamethrower!" Alane commanded.
Charizard opened its mouth, and a blazing blue fire beam shot out from its maw.
Skyborne's massive dragon body twitched slightly, then it nimbly spiraled upwards. The air currents around the Celestial Dragon directly flipped Charizard over.
Seeing someone trying to stop it, Skyborne paused and glared angrily at the crowd below.
"Damn! We've angered Skyborne!" Fladarius frowned.
The next moment, Skyborne's body transformed into a green line, moving at a speed beyond human perception, and pierced through Charizard.
Charizard's body fell from the sky like a broken kite.
Witnessing this, Daio furrowed his brows, but he still took out his Poke Ball and commanded, "Golduck, go and catch him!"
The Poke Ball automatically popped open, and as Gigalith flew out, it instantly Mega Evolved. It waved its four metal arms and precisely caught Charizard as it fell from the sky.
Shizuru, standing atop Skyborne's head, noticed this.
Daio had joined the battle too?
"Sigh," he sighed helplessly, then jumped towards the rear, "Skyborne, leave those two Pokemon to us! We'll take care of the Megalith!"
He dared not let Skyborne launch a full-on assault because that Megalith might escape on its own.
The enormous energy contained within the Megalith was enough to distort space. In the anime, it had disappeared from its original location due to Skyborne's attack and reappeared in another area, attracting Groudon and Kyogre.
"Roar!" Skyborne nodded its massive head.
Shizuru and Ultra Dream exchanged a glance, and the Mega Evolved Ultra Dream instantly understood. With a slight thought, it disappeared from its original location, taking Shizuru with it.
Sensing Shizuru's departure, Mega Skyborne immediately locked its golden eyes on the Mega Gigalith and Mega Charizard before it.
The next moment, a massive surge of Dragon Energy rose, and the sky's weather changed dramatically. Accompanied by thunderous roars, a giant meteorite formed from Dragon Energy plummeted, creating a scene reminiscent of the end of the world.
Mega Gigalith and Mega Charizard felt the terrifying power within, their expressions grave as they quickened their pace, constantly evading the onslaught.
As the meteorites crashed to the ground with a thunderous roar, the entire land began to tremble.
"Not good! It's a Dragon Meteor!" Fladarius frowned.
Everyone's gaze turned to the sky.
Shizuru, wearing a mask, and Ultra Dream appeared quietly.
This scene quickly caught Manon's attention.
"Who are you?!" Manon exclaimed in surprise.
Upon hearing this, Daio, Alane, and Fladarius immediately looked ahead.
Seeing the familiar figure wearing a familiar mask, Daio's mind instantly conjured an unbelievable guess.
Could it be...!
Shizuru's gaze swept calmly over the group, and standing in front of the Megalith with Ultra Dream, he spoke in a deep voice, "We'll take care of the Megalith."
Daio remained silent, his gaze fixed on the other.
Upon hearing this, Fladarius immediately furrowed his brows. If this were the case, his plan would fail.
But Fladarius dared not act rashly, for as a Pokemon Trainer, he could sense the terrifying energy emanating from the Pokemon beside the other person.
That energy could tear him apart in an instant.
Fladarius was certain of the other's identity. From the mask they wore and the two Pokemon, this person was likely the world-renowned hero, the enigmatic Masked Hero.
Based on their previous actions, it was clear they weren't selfish.
He struggled to maintain his composure, attempting to communicate, "I don't know who you are, but this Megalith is the origin of Mega Evolution. If we can uncover the truth behind it, it will be a cause for celebration for Pokemon Trainers worldwide."
"... "
However, the other party didn't respond.
Fladarius: "?"
After a long while, he heard the other's deep voice again.
"Fladarius, leader of the Flareblaze Team, your plan is to use the Megalith and combine it with the Crown of Centurion City to create a better world. Not only that, you seem to be plotting to capture the Order Sentinel, Gigalith, and use its power for some secret agenda. Am I right?"
Hearing this, Fladarius froze on the spot.
His eyes darted around, how could this person know...?!
Daio, Alane, and Manon, after a brief moment of stunned silence, also turned their gazes towards Fladarius.
Fladarius' forehead broke out in a cold sweat, his expression grave as never before, "Are you joking, sir?"
"That's enough."
The words were both a warning and a plea.
As the enigmatic figure's voice fell, their silhouette, along with the Pokemon and the Megalith, vanished.
At the same time, Mega Gigalith and Mega Charizard were reverted to their original forms, covered in wounds, and fell into the ruins of the ancient monument.
"Gigalith!"
Daio quickly rushed forward to check on Gigalith's condition.
When he looked up again, he saw Skyborne's dark body charging into the black clouds, disappearing without a trace.
