One hundred percent!
That was enough!
Hearing the system's voice, Shiko felt a rush of excitement that was difficult to describe.
He had not expected things to progress even faster than he had predicted.
He did not need to wait until he won the championship and rely on those Dark-type gems to raise the Dark-type energy inside his body.
The energy he had absorbed from Darkrai, this Second-tier Legendary, was already enough to fill in the missing fifty percent!
As expected!
A Second-tier Legendary truly lived up to the name.
In terms of the strength of the energy inside its body, it was much stronger than a Third-tier Legendary!
However, Shiko was not in a hurry to use the Dark-type law he had fully mastered to obtain the BlackWarGreymon form.
Before that, there was still one necessary thing he had to finish.
Shiko raised his head.
His expression was cold as he looked at Darkrai.
After breaking free from the nightmare space, he could clearly feel that Darkrai's aura had weakened by another large margin.
That was probably because most of Darkrai's energy had been extracted and absorbed by him.
That was good too.
In that case, even if he extracted all the Dark-type energy from the Gaia Energy Cannon and absorbed it himself, the remaining energy would still be more than enough to completely crush Darkrai!
"Roar!"
With a thunderous roar, Shiko thrust both hands toward Darkrai's position and hurled the energy sphere out with brutal force.
Everywhere it passed, even space itself was burned into empty black voids by the terrifying fluctuations of energy.
The Gaia Energy Cannon was like a meteor.
No.
It was like a blazing sun hurtling forward at terrifying speed as it blasted toward Darkrai.
A warning signal of death flashed in Darkrai's heart.
In that extremely brief span of time, Darkrai exhausted every method he had.
All kinds of defensive measures were used.
That miserable, cornered feeling...
Searching his own heart, he had not experienced it in thousands of years.
He had never expected that after reappearing before the world, he would suffer such a crushing defeat in only his second battle as a Trainer's Pokémon!
"Wuaoo!"
Darkrai watched as the Gaia Energy Cannon mercilessly destroyed every barrier he had placed in front of him, one after another.
The violent energy aura rushing straight toward him, now close enough to touch, made Darkrai feel an intense sense of despair.
He had completely given up.
He knew that against an attack like this, no matter what he did, it would be useless.
Under such a powerful move, any Second-tier Legendary like him would be ruthlessly and heavily wounded.
Perhaps only a being that had stepped into the realm of a First-tier Legendary could withstand it!
At the very end, Darkrai's gaze turned toward the dragon-humanoid Pokémon floating in midair, clad in bright yellow Chrome Digizoid Battle Armor.
Where had this absurdly powerful being come from?
Why had he never seen him before?
Why had he never even heard of him?
Filled with deep unwillingness and confusion, Darkrai ultimately faced the Gaia Energy Cannon head-on.
A burst of dazzling light swallowed his body in an instant.
Darkrai let out a mournful cry.
Immediately afterward came a terrifying explosion and flames that illuminated the entire sky.
The blinding light almost burned people's eyes.
The shockwave from the explosion stirred up a storm so violent that it nearly uprooted the massive venue from its foundations.
When the intense white light finally faded, the audience looked down.
The battle arena had long since become a ruin.
On the scorched black ground, Darkrai lay there quietly, his condition unknown.
The dark black glow surrounding his body was now flickering unsteadily, like a candle flame in the wind.
Darkrai... had lost?
Although the audience had already guessed the outcome earlier, seeing such a powerful Second-tier Legendary truly faint before their eyes still filled them with an indescribably intense shock.
After a brief pause, the audience turned their gazes toward WarGreymon.
Their eyes were filled with awe and fanaticism.
This Pokémon...
He was simply too strong!
Just then, a sudden change occurred.
At one side of the field, Shiko's body was suddenly enveloped by a cluster of pure white light.
His entire silhouette also began to slowly blur within that light!
Wait...
That light...
Why did it look like the light of evolution?
