Chapter 855: Don't Worry, Leave It to Me
Mewtwo and Dragonite realized where the problem lay.
So they both headed toward the Lake Guardians.
These three guys had to be eliminated.
Otherwise, the danger would absolutely not be limited to just this one time.
In every future encounter, as long as the Lake Guardians were present, they would face this current predicament.
Once Kazuya's Power of Space was restricted.
They might not be able to safely escape from Shadow's hands like they used to.
They had to take advantage of the fact that Shadow hadn't arrived yet.
Seize the opportunity to kill the Lake Guardians.
At the very least.
They had to kill one of Them.
Destroy this triangle.
Presumably, that would also cause a significant impact on Them.
Crack!
Mewtwo on this side also directly threw a Reversion Pill into His mouth and crushed it.
The next second, He evolved into the powerfully built Mega Mewtwo X.
His figure attracted Mega Mewtwo Y.
But the dense aura of a Legendary Pokemon on Kazuya ultimately retained Mega Mewtwo Y's gaze, preventing Him from shifting His target.
Right at this moment.
"Screech——!"
Ho-Oh's cry came from the distant horizon.
The sky was also dyed with a layer of black flames at this moment.
The next moment.
A massive fireball shimmering with rainbow-colored light smashed over.
Boom!
The fireball smashed into the ground.
Instantly kicking up raging flames.
The entire Dragon Clan territory turned into a purgatory at this moment.
Fortunately, the people of the Dragon Clan had left this place long ago, otherwise, it was likely not a single one would survive today.
After Kazuya and the other two dodged the attack.
Their expressions all darkened.
They hadn't even started fighting.
Ho-Oh had already rushed over.
That was absolutely Shadow controlling It from afar to participate in the battlefield.
Since Shadow already knew their location, He would inevitably rush over at full speed.
Especially with the Lake Guardians here.
He presumably was also very confident He could catch Kazuya's group this time.
"Mewtwo, you deal with Ho-Oh."
Kazuya pursed his lips, raising his hand to feed himself a Reversion Pill.
Now they could only divide their forces again.
They were all under immense pressure.
But there was no other way.
In the process of fighting against the Demon God faction, this was considered the norm.
Their respective battles commenced simultaneously.
Kazuya's side was considered the easiest.
Mega Mewtwo Y was not old.
After all, He was an artificial god that only appeared around League Calendar Year 200.
His age was about the same as Lucario's.
It was just that Mega Mewtwo Y had already developed His potential to the absolute limit. While other gods were still sleeping soundly, He was also working hard to strengthen Himself.
He truly brought out His talent as a "first-tier god."
Therefore, at this age.
He possessed a level of Lv. 93.
This was also proof of a genius who had experienced hundreds of battles.
Kazuya in his sixth life also lived for a hundred years to reach this level, experiencing countless blood and sweat.
However.
This level was only two levels higher than Kazuya's.
And the Power of Victory at the Master stage could still forcefully raise Kazuya by one level.
Therefore.
In reality.
The gap between Kazuya and Mega Mewtwo Y.
Was only a one-level difference.
A one-level difference at the Master stage was certainly not to be ignored.
But could Kazuya's many lifetimes of combat experience, the numerous divine powers, Plates, and items on his body be ignored?
The most crucial point was.
Kazuya possessed a crushing type advantage.
Bzzzt...
The electric sparks of the Power of Racing Thunder swept through mid-air.
Before the next second even arrived.
Kazuya had already flown above Cresselia's head.
He slammed a Dark Void down onto Her head.
Cresselia merely struggled for three or four seconds before Her eyes rolled back and She plummeted toward the earth.
Always go for the softest target first.
Kazuya didn't want a nuisance constantly annoying him while he fought Mega Mewtwo Y.
But he couldn't let Cresselia interfere with Mewtwo and Dragonite's battles either.
So his gaze was locked onto Cresselia from the very beginning.
Resolved with a single Dark Void.
Cresselia wasn't dead.
She just fell into a nightmare, and it would likely be difficult for Her to wake up anytime soon.
In almost the exact same instant.
Mega Mewtwo Y's Psystrike blasted onto Kazuya's body.
Whoosh!
Kazuya was sent flying away.
But he received no damage.
This was his crushing type advantage.
Dark type.
Immune to Psychic-type attacks.
Among the six Demon Gods present, only Ho-Oh could truly fight him.
Even though Kazuya had a Flame Plate on him that could grant immunity to Fire-type damage, Ho-Oh was also a Flying-type Demon God.
Kazuya had no resistance to Flying-type moves.
Slightly rubbing his neck.
He turned his head and looked at Mega Mewtwo Y not far away: "Realized it this quickly? Too smart to be a Demon God."
He sensed Mega Mewtwo Y's Aura.
It was a feeling of sudden epiphany.
That is to say.
Mega Mewtwo Y realized that Psychic-type moves were ineffective against Kazuya based solely on that strike just now.
Among the Demon Gods.
Someone this smart.
Mega Mewtwo Y was the very first case.
Truly worthy of the artificial Pokemon who asked three philosophical questions the moment He was born; He was indeed extraordinary.
The battle continued.
As mentioned before.
Mega Mewtwo Y used to be a Pokemon that pushed His potential to the limit.
Unlike other Legendary Pokemon.
He would actively learn moves of other types to enhance His combat ability.
Therefore.
Mega Mewtwo Y's move pool was very deep.
Even without using Psychic-type moves.
He still had many special-category moves available to use.
And Mega Mewtwo Y quickly discovered that Fighting-type moves seemed more effective against Kazuya.
So He began to frequently use moves like Aura Sphere and Focus Blast.
Mega Mewtwo Y was indeed not ordinary.
Not only was His reaction speed exceptional, but His Special Attack stat was extraordinarily high.
Any random hit could cause massive damage to Kazuya.
Fortunately, Kazuya still had the "Power of Spring."
His bulk was much higher than in the past.
Coupled with his dual defenses also increasing in his Mega Evolution state.
So even taking a Focus Blast or two, his combat power wasn't affected much.
In yet another clash.
After using the Power of Racing Thunder to catch up to Mega Mewtwo Y's Teleport, Kazuya spun around and hit the latter's massive head with a Throat Chop.
Bang!
"Ah!!"
Mega Mewtwo Y let out a roar resembling a human's.
The characteristic of Throat Chop is making the target feel hellish pain, and even Mega Mewtwo Y found it hard to endure at this moment.
After all, the brain was not only the source of Mega Mewtwo Y's power.
It was also His core weakness.
Kazuya hitting the back of Mega Mewtwo Y's head with a Dark-type physical move had an effect almost equivalent to landing a super-effective critical hit.
"A great opportunity."
His eyes lit up.
Watching Mega Mewtwo Y howl in pain while holding His brain, His body curling into a ball leaving His defenses wide open.
Kazuya immediately wanted to seize this opportunity to inflict heavy damage on Him, or even simply beat Mega Mewtwo Y to near death and devour Him right then and there.
But Ho-Oh and the Lake Guardians obviously wouldn't stand by and watch.
The former.
Smashed a Sacred Fire towards Kazuya.
But it was kicked apart by Mega Mewtwo X using brute force.
The latter.
Used Teleport directly to get away.
The three Lake Gods flashed behind Kazuya.
Three Mystical Powers were thrown out.
Crimson chains immediately bound themselves onto Kazuya's body.
At this moment.
Kazuya only felt that the Power of Space within his body had become his greatest weakness and restriction.
The instant the Red Chains attached to his body.
He couldn't even use the most basic psychic powers.
The feeling was like being frozen by Kyurem's Glaciate, unable to even circulate the energy within his body.
No.
It was even more terrifying than that.
Because Kazuya felt his entire body go soft, unable to even use basic brute force.
No wonder Palkia didn't move an inch when bound by the Red Chains.
So this was how it felt.
The Power of Space was equivalent to a Devil Fruit in the One Piece world.
And the Red Chain was Seastone.
If Kazuya didn't have the Power of Space, then even if he was bound by the Red Chains, it would only slightly hinder his movements.
But having the Power of Space plunged Kazuya into a weakened state.
Buzz~
The sound of the atmosphere being squeezed came from behind.
Although Kazuya didn't even have the strength to turn his head at this moment.
He still possessed the Power of Space, after all.
He could sense a spatial wormhole opening behind him. As for where the space on the other side of the wormhole was...
It was definitely the territory of the Lake Guardians.
That separate dimension They had been hiding in back then.
They wanted to take Kazuya into the separate dimension to "seal" him!
Once the Lake Guardians succeeded.
Then Kazuya would be in massive trouble!
Restricted by the Red Chains, Kazuya wouldn't be able to break through the Lake Guardians' seal.
In that state, he wouldn't even be able to commit suicide.
And Darkrai had no concept of a lifespan.
This meant.
Kazuya wouldn't even be able to reincarnate!
He would be permanently sealed in that space, just like the Tailed Beasts in the Naruto world.
"So this is the method you came up with to 'kill' me."
Kazuya muttered to himself.
Thinking of Shadow.
He had to admit.
This method was indeed fatal.
As long as the Lake Guardians didn't die, Kazuya would remain in a state of "death."
But even at this moment, he didn't panic.
Mega Mewtwo Y had teammates.
Didn't he have them too?
Whoosh—!
Dragonite's figure swept past Kazuya.
She was seen grabbing the Red Chains backhandedly, forcefully pulling the Lake Guardians over.
"Dragonite?"
Kazuya revealed a confused expression.
He thought Dragonite was going to launch an attack on the Lake Guardians.
He didn't expect her to do this instead.
This made it a bit hard for Kazuya to understand.
"Leaving Them outside will still affect you. My speed can't keep up with Their Teleport."
Dragonite shook her head.
She grabbed the Red Chains and flung them forcefully.
Throwing the Lake Guardians directly into the spatial wormhole They had opened Themselves.
However.
Just doing this was useless.
The Lake Guardians were the rulers of that world; They could completely open a wormhole and come back out.
Dragonite knew this as well.
So naturally, what she was going to do wasn't just this.
"You're going inside?"
Kazuya's eyelids lifted slightly, and he raised his hand to grab Dragonite's arm.
Mega Mewtwo Y had already recovered.
He raised His hand to use a Hurricane, seemingly preparing to use the fierce winds to sweep both Kazuya and Dragonite into the Lake Guardians' space.
Dragonite glanced at Him, backhandedly pushed Kazuya away, and said with a smile: "Don't worry."
"Leave it to me."
"I will take care of those three."
Having said that.
Dragonite rode the wind and dove headfirst into the spatial wormhole.
