Chapter 615: Embarking on the Path of Bravery
That very evening, Shizuru began packing his bags.
He planned to set off early the next morning, riding on Gogoat from the Reversed World to Kurume Town, which would save some time.
The journey to Kurume Town was estimated to take a full day, and to prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Shizuru packed some food with warming properties and other supplies.
In the afternoon, Shizuru used his phone to search online for information about Kurume Town and the Giant Cave.
He discovered that the Giant Mountain Range, where the Giant Cave was located, was an extensive mountain range comparable in scale to Mt. Silver in the Kanto region.
They wouldn't be returning to Kurume Town for lunch; a quick meal outdoors would suffice.
With Gogoat and Ultra Dream by their side, safety wasn't a concern.
Although Zekrom was known as the "Strongest Dragon," Shizuru believed it wouldn't be a match for Gogoat and Ultra Dream.
If this Zekrom was the same one from the movie, Shizuru was confident that with enough sincerity, it would agree to a Pokemon battle with Fairy Eevee.
Aside from food and some restorative items, they didn't need to bring much else. After all, they'd be returning in the afternoon.
Shizuru packed everything into his spatial backpack and turned to Fairy Eevee, who was equally excited and eager, and said, "Alright, packing's done. Tomorrow morning, we can set off directly!"
"Bii~!" Fairy Eevee's face lit up with anticipation.
Qi Shu had just finished soothing the children and stepped out to witness this scene.
She was surprised, "Huh? Aren't there supposed to be classes at Blueberry Academy tomorrow?"
"No," Shizuru smiled at Fairy Eevee and explained to Qi Shu, "Tomorrow, I plan to take Fairy Eevee to the Unova region."
"Is it about defeating the Evil Dragon and becoming a brave warrior?" Qi Shu was curious, having heard about Fairy Eevee's wish before.
Shizuru nodded, "That's right. The time is ripe, and it's high time we took action."
After consuming a seed that had an effect comparable to thirty-three Miracle Berries, Fairy Eevee's strength had surpassed the Champion level.
Additionally, with the intensive training alongside Frostbird and Gogoat, Fairy Eevee had become the most powerful Eevee in the Ranch's Eevee family.
A battle with Zekrom shouldn't be a problem.
Upon hearing this, Qi Shu expressed her full support and, true to her cheerful personality, cheered Fairy Eevee on.
"Go for it, Fairy Eevee! You can definitely do it!"
"Bii~!"
The other Pokemon in the house also turned their attention to Fairy Eevee, sending her their blessings.
The next morning, Fairy Eevee set off with Shizuru, carrying everyone's well wishes, heading towards the Unova region.
The journey from Paldea to Unova wasn't too far, and with Gogoat's speed, they departed the ranch at 7:30 a.m. and arrived in Kurume Town before 9 a.m.
In this era, with the convenience of map apps, even if one had never been to a place before, they wouldn't be completely lost.
Shizuru and Gogoat stood in the streets of Kurume Town, looking at the town's description on his phone screen—
"Kurume is a town known for its woven bamboo basket patterns and triangular charms to ward off evil."
Below were some local customs and legends.
"It is said that long ago, a meteorite fell from space, containing a terrifying beast. The beast was said to appear in the town at night, accompanied by cold winds, capturing and devouring people and Pokemon.
The town's residents built walls to enclose Kurume, and even established rules prohibiting nighttime outings, encouraging everyone to stay indoors. Even if some residents no longer believed the story, they would still stay home at night."
Some tourists who had visited Kurume Town shared that the town's residents led unique lives, devoid of nightlife.
They would go about their activities during the day, but once night fell, everyone would return home, including the town's police officers, who rarely ventured out in the evenings.
"Is it because of Zekrom?" Shizuru raised an eyebrow.
He put away his phone and looked at the town before him, thinking that if Zekrom knew about this, the entire dragon would be speechless.
Due to time constraints, Shizuru didn't linger in Kurume Town for long.
After taking a glance at the real-life appearance of Kurume Town, he continued his journey on Gogoat, heading north and venturing deeper into the Giant Mountain Range.
Gradually, the town and the fields faded into the distance behind them, and the scenery below underwent rapid changes. Forests and plains disappeared, replaced by an endless expanse of vast mountains.
"Ultra Dream."
Shizuru called out softly, and in the next moment, Ultra Dream's figure materialized beside him.
"This is the place. Try using your psychic powers to sense the presence of a Dragon-type and Ice-type Pokemon. Their dragon and ice auras should be quite intense.
Shizuru spoke.
Ultra Dream remained silent, floating in mid-air, overlooking the vast land below.
A faint blue light shone from its eyes, and an immense psychic power surged forth, like a colossal net that covered the mountains below.
Ultra Dream closed its eyes, its consciousness following the net woven from psychic power as it moved swiftly.
Flowers, trees, mountains, gentle breezes, pebbles, gravel, cliffs, canyons, and the earth itself...
All the Pokemon living in this area appeared clearly and vividly in Ultra Dream's mind.
After a moment, Ultra Dream suddenly opened its eyes.
Shizuru asked anxiously, "Did you find it?"
"No," Ultra Dream thought for a moment, and in the next second, a milky white light emanated from its body, transforming it into Super Mewtwo Y.
Compared to its regular form, the Y form of Ultra Dream specializes in Special Attack.
Although its body had shrunk, the psychic power within it was immeasurably vast. With just a slight use of its psychic abilities, even towering skyscrapers would turn to ashes.
In this form, Ultra Dream's psychic powers were even more formidable.
Immediately, Ultra Dream Y closed its eyes again.
At this moment, the scenery below became even clearer in its mind, and everything in the distance was also completely visible.
Time passed, minute by minute, and Shizuru waited patiently without hurrying. He sat on Gogoat, awaiting the results.
After about two minutes, Ultra Dream's tightly closed eyes suddenly snapped open.
It turned its head, its gaze fixed on the distant north.
Upon seeing this, Shizuru knew the answer.
"Found it," Ultra Dream said calmly.
"Let's go!"
Shizuru was concise, and Ultra Dream instantly understood his intention.
It flew ahead, leading the way for Gogoat.
As they approached, a cave resembling an abandoned mine shaft soon came into view.
Surrounding it were numerous railway tracks stretching from afar, all the way to a cliff where the tracks abruptly ended, and below was a bottomless abyss.
On the other side of the cliff stood several abandoned mine tunnels.
"This is the place," Ultra Dream said.
"It seems Zekrom has chosen a good place to reside," Shizuru muttered.
He smiled slightly and thanked Ultra Dream, "Thank you, Ultra Dream!"
"Don't mention it," Ultra Dream remained calm.
"Let's continue!"
At Shizuru's command, Gogoat began flying towards the abandoned mine tunnel across the cliff.
Upon reaching the entrance of the mine tunnel, Shizuru jumped off Gogoat.
He stood at the entrance, gazing inside, and could sense a chill emanating from within.
It was clear that this was Zekrom's lair.
Although they had reached their destination, Shizuru didn't rush to release Fairy Eevee.
Their sudden arrival and aggressive behavior were impolite, and such actions would be too abrupt for Zekrom.
After a moment's thought, Shizuru decided to go down and discuss with Zekrom, asking it for a favor. As a token of gratitude, he could offer Zekrom some Life Sheep Milk.
Having made up his mind, Shizuru entered the mine tunnel, and they descended the abandoned steel staircase to the lowest level, where the chill in the air became even more intense.
Looking up, a group of Geometric Snowflakes hovered above the mine tunnel.
This Pokemon only appeared in cold places, and it was clear that they had gathered here due to the presence of Zekrom.
Shizuru scanned the area but didn't see Zekrom's figure.
Gogoat and Ultra Dream, however, seemed to sense something and directed their gaze in one direction.
Shizuru followed their gaze to the end, where he spotted a pitch-black mine tunnel.
"Agh..." Gogoat let out a cry.
Ultra Dream narrowed its eyes slightly.
A cold hum emanated from the darkness, followed by a rumbling sound that echoed throughout the entire mine tunnel.
The sound grew closer, and soon, a massive figure emerged from the darkness.
It was a bipedal Pokemon with a unique ice-blue horn, its eyes glowing yellow without discernible pupils. It had a yellow horn on its head and a pair of ice wings extending to the sides.
It was... Zekrom!
Zekrom slowly emerged from the darkness, and as it took each step, the air temperature dropped even further.
Zekrom's eyes fixed on the direction where Shizuru stood. It exhaled two white breaths from its nostrils and asked coldly,
"Why have you come here?"
"!"
Shizuru finally snapped out of his daze and quickly said, "Zekrom, we're here to challenge you!"
"Challenge me?" Zekrom's voice was icy, devoid of any emotion.
"Believe me, we mean no harm." Shizuru tried his best to convey his goodwill. He slowly jumped down from the platform and landed on the flat ground in front of Zekrom, looking straight into its eyes.
"Actually, I have a favor to ask of you." Shizuru said slowly, "I have a Pokemon that was once weak, but after hearing the legend of becoming a hero, it aspired to be the hero in the story."
"After that day, it began its diligent training, and recently, it has finally achieved some results. So, I want to bring it here to battle you. If you're willing, as a token of gratitude, I can offer you some human gifts."
Zekrom remained silent, another Pokemon wanting to challenge it and awaken as a Saint Swordsman?
The image of a little guy named Keldeo flashed through its mind, one that it had encountered not long ago.
Zekrom turned its gaze to the human before it, sensing a familiar Dragon Aura emanating from him.
It was the aura of those two guys.
Zekrom's eyes showed a hint of interest.
Just as Shizuru thought Zekrom would refuse, its icy and heavy voice sounded again.
"Since that's the case, then prove it to me!"
Huh? Zekrum agreed?
Shizuru was slightly startled.
But the next moment, a massive burst of ice energy emanated from Zekrom,
In an instant, the ground beneath its feet transformed into an ice field, the ice spreading until it covered the entire surface, even freezing the walls!
A wave of ice energy reached Shizuru, forming an ice gate not far from him.
When the opponent stepped into this ice gate, it meant the battle was about to begin.
Seeing that Zekrom had set up the stage, Shizuru no longer hesitated.
He immediately took the Fairy Eevee's Poke Ball from his waist.
A flash of white light, and Fairy Eevee appeared before the ice gate.
The sudden appearance caught Fairy Eevee off guard, but soon, it realized what was happening.
"Bii!"
Fairy Eevee's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
Zekrom's gaze fixed on it, and it spoke, "If you wish to battle me, enter that ice gate!"
"Bii!"
Fairy Eevee turned to look at Shizuru, and with his encouraging gaze, its agile form passed through the ice gate and assumed a battle-ready stance.
However, Zekrom didn't start the battle immediately.
It stared at the "insignificant" Pokemon before it and asked in a cold voice, "Why do you want to become a hero?"
"Bii?" Fairy Eevee was taken aback, seemingly not expecting this "Evil Dragon" to ask such a question. It immediately replied, "Bii!" There are two reasons! The first is to help others!
Zekrom couldn't help but be curious, "And the second?"
Fairy Eevee looked at Zekrom with high spirits.
Seeing this, Shizuru suddenly had a bad feeling.
Damn! He forgot to tell Fairy Eevee that Zekrom wasn't an evil dragon anymore! But it was too late.
Fairy Eevee's mind recalled the words the Phoenix King had once said to it and Kiraki.
The Phoenix King had said, "There's a dragon Pokemon living deep in the mountains. According to legend, it arrives with blizzards and devours the children of the town. Not only that, but it can also control the ice, freezing nearby humans and Pokemon into ice sculptures, so no humans or Pokemon dare approach its lair."
"Bii..." Fairy Eevee muttered as it looked at Zekrom.
The cold and evil dragon before it must be the child-eating dragon the Phoenix King spoke of!
It would descend upon the town during the quiet of the night with blizzards, cruelly capturing and devouring helpless human children.
Fairy Eevee was here today to save those eaten children!
Thinking of this, Fairy Eevee stated the second reason for wanting to become a hero, "Bii!" (That's to defeat you, the child-eating evil dragon, and save the people of the town!)
Zekrom's eyes widened instantly, "?"
Its tone was a mix of shock, disbelief, confusion, and anger.
Eat children? When did it eat children?
This Pokemon dared to slander it like this! No, from its expression, it seemed to have heard this from somewhere else.
Zekrom let out a roar of anger, "Who told you such things?!"
