Chapter 773 Li Shuwen: You should be worried about whether the Three Holy Birds are alright.
Milton dodged to the side, the freezing ray grazing his body before slamming into the ground and freezing a large area into ice.
Zapdos unleashed a bolt of lightning, shattering the incoming Ice Beam.
Li Shuwen's eyes sharpened, and he took out a Poké Ball.
"Sticky Dragon, Cannon Beam."
Goodra burst out of its Poké Ball and landed on the ground of Fire Island.
A silvery-white light shone from its mouth, and the cannon beam transformed into a thick metallic beam, blasting towards Articuno.
Articuno flapped its wings to dodge, but the Cannon Light grazed its wing, knocking off a few icy blue feathers.
Articuno looked down at the feathers that had been knocked off, a hint of annoyance flashing in its eyes.
He turned his head and opened his mouth, and a blizzard erupted from the depths of his throat, transforming into an icy blue storm that swept towards the Numeru Dragon.
The Gluttonous Dragon did not dodge; its mouth glowed with silvery-white light once more, and it unleashed a barrage of cannon beams that collided with the blizzard.
The collision of ice and steel exploded, scattering ice crystals everywhere.
Zapdos flew to Articuno's side, the two legendary birds exchanged a glance, and then simultaneously turned to Milton and Goodra.
Under the threat of Mummified and Milton, they began to cooperate.
Zapdos unleashed electromagnetic waves, and golden lightning wove into a large net in the sky, restricting Milton's movement.
Articuno seized the opportunity to release its Freeze Ray, which passed through the gaps in the electromagnetic net and shot towards Millerton.
Millerdon dodged, but the electromagnetic net restricted his speed, and the freezing ray grazed his tail, freezing a section of it.
Li Shuwen frowned. "Nianmeilulong, provide support to Milerton."
Goodra fired its Cannon at Articuno, interrupting its Ice Beam.
Taking advantage of the momentum, Milton sprang up, broke free of the ice on its tail, and swooped down to crash into Zapdos.
Zapdos's Electromagnetic Cannon met the attack, and the two beams of electricity collided once again.
Articuno's Blizzard attacked from the side, and Goodra's Cannon once again met it off.
The sky was dyed a mixture of gold, blue, and silver.
Lightning, ice, and metal bursts of light explode in the air like festive fireworks, but each firework is enough to destroy a small mountain.
The shockwaves whipped up giant waves on the sea, dark clouds filled the sky, lightning flashed, and blizzards clashed with cannon beams, blasting ice crystals and energy fragments everywhere.
Misty, clutching Togepi, huddled in a corner. "This is terrifying... This isn't a Pokémon battle, this is a natural disaster..."
Xiao Jian's hands were shaking violently. "A scene like this... I'll never get to capture it in my entire life..."
Ash was filled with shock and excitement. "This is... a legendary battle..."
Flora knelt at the stern, her hands clasped together, tears streaming down her face. "The Three Sacred Birds... are truly enraged..."
Cynthia's eyes sharpened. "Garuda, let's go!"
Garchomp charged out from beside her, and Cynthia flipped over and mounted his back.
Garchomp flapped its wings and charged towards the flying vehicle. Ash looked up, watching the departing figure. "Cynthia... went alone?"
Xiaoxia also looked up. "Can she do it?"
Li Shuwen watched the departing figure, a slight smile playing on his lips. "She's the champion."
Inside the aircraft, Cynthia accurately located the imprisoned Blaziken.
Garchomp swung its claws, shattering the rings that were trapping Moltres one by one.
The firebird's body is like a burning sun, and its wings stir up a sky full of sparks when it flaps.
It spewed flames wildly from inside the aircraft, then crashed through the aircraft's wall and shot out.
When Li Shuwen and his group on the island heard the explosion, they looked up and saw a fiery red figure burst out of the aircraft in the sky.
Moltres returned to his loyal island of fire.
Moltres did not attack Milton or Goodra, but instead breathed fire at Zapdos and Articuno.
This is his territory!
What does it mean that Zapdos and Articuno are fighting with humans in his territory?
Cynthia rode Garchomp, burst out of the aircraft, and returned to Li Shuwen's side.
Cynthia jumped off Garchomp's back and landed on the ground, frowning slightly. "Why are Moltres fighting with Zapdos and Articuno?"
Li Shuwen waved his hand and said, "I don't know, but the most important thing right now is to calm them down."
Cynthia looked up at Moltres in the sky. "Morpho, leave it to me! Garchomp, Dragon Dive!"
Garchomp's body was enveloped in deep blue dragon energy, transforming into a ferocious dragon that charged towards Moltres.
Moltres's body was enveloped in flames, and it charged forward with Flame Charge.
The two figures collided in mid-air, exploding into a ball of flames and dragon energy that engulfed the heavens and the earth.
The Moltres was knocked away and crashed onto the Fire Island, creating a huge crater.
Garchomp burst out of the flames, her body charred black, but her eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
She landed on the ground and charged towards the firebird, her dragon claws glowing.
Xiaoxia watched the figure fighting amidst the flames and murmured, "Miss Cynthia... is too strong..."
Ash clenched his fist, his eyes filled with longing. "I want to become a trainer like that someday..."
Above Thunder Island, dark clouds surged like ink.
The three legendary birds flew in from three directions simultaneously. Zapdos was wrapped in golden arcs of electricity, and each flap of its wings tore through the sky.
Articuno was enveloped in an icy blue aura, and wherever it passed, the air froze into frost.
The flamingo's body was engulfed in crimson flames, turning half the sky red.
"Dance of the Dragon." Li Shuwen's voice was calm, yet it pierced through the thunder.
Milton began to spin, and dragon energy condensed into a deep blue vortex around him, its momentum rising steadily.
Nymphallon also began to dance. His movements were more steady than Milerton's, but each spin brought out a ring of silvery-white light.
Zapdos unleashed its 100,000 volts, golden lightning tearing through the air.
Millardon didn't even look at the bolt of lightning; 100,000 volts shot out from his tail, colliding precisely and exploding into a blinding ball of light in mid-air.
Articuno's Freeze Beam shot from the side, but Goodra didn't even turn its head. It unleashed its Cannon, a silver-white beam colliding with an ice-blue beam, shattering into countless ice crystals.
Two floors, three floors, four floors.
Milton and Golem's power was rising wildly, and the layers of Dragon Dance were rapidly stacking up as they danced.
Zapdos and Articuno's attacks became increasingly frequent, but Milton and Goodra's defenses were as solid as an impenetrable wall, and every attack was precisely intercepted.
Fifth floor, sixth floor.
Milerton and Nymphalus stopped dancing at the same time.
Their eyes shone with an astonishing light, and their entire bodies emanated a deep blue dragon energy.
Milton's lightning changed from purple to a blazing blue-white, and golden patterns appeared on the carapace of the Golem.
The sixth level of Dragon Dance has brought its power to its peak.
Cynthia also ordered the Dragon Dance.
Garchomp also danced in flight, the light of Dragon Dance swirling around her.
One layer, two layers, three layers—he darted through the air, dodging the firebird's attacks, each turn creating ripples of dragon energy.
Fourth floor, fifth floor, sixth floor.
Li Shuwen raised his hand. "Millardon, use Thunder Rush against Zapdos. Goodra, use Heavy Tackle against Articuno."
Cynthia commanded, "Garuda, Dragon Dive!"
Milton's body glowed with solidified, liquid-like lightning, enveloping his entire body.
He transformed into a streak of blue-silver lightning and charged towards Zapdos.
The speed was so fast that the air in its path was ionized, leaving behind tiny spatial cracks.
Zapdos also flashed with golden electricity, unleashing a powerful lightning strike to counter.
Two bolts of lightning collided in mid-air.
boom--!!!
Golden and blue-silver lightning clashed violently, distorting the air at the point of impact.
Zapdos held on for a second, then the blue-silver lightning engulfed everything.
Zapdos was knocked away and fell from the sky, crashing onto Thunder Island and creating a huge crater.
Zapdos struggled to get up, but the force of the lightning charge was too great, and his body had exceeded its limits.
Lying on the ground, its golden feathers were dull and lifeless, and its claws twitched.
The body of the Golem glowed with a silvery-white light, and the heavy impact turned it into a silvery-white meteor, crashing into Articuno.
Articuno's Divine Bird Strike met the attack head-on, the icy blue light colliding with the silvery white light, shattering into countless ice crystals.
The Articuno was knocked away, tumbling several times in the air before its wings spread limply.
Moltres's Flare Charge transformed into a crimson meteor, while Garchomp's claws glowed with a ghostly purple light as it met the attack head-on.
boom--!!!
Crimson flames collided with deep blue dragon energy, exploding into a radiant light that engulfed the heavens and earth.
Moltres was knocked away, and Garchomp landed on the ground, its claws still firmly pressing down on Moltres's wings.
Li Shuwen raised an eyebrow. "Cynthia, let's take the rest of the treasure now."
"Let the three sacred birds stay here; they should recover soon."
Sure enough, when Li Shuwen and his group had collected all three precious pearls and were preparing to return to Asia Island, the three sacred birds attacked again.
They roared to the sky, their voices filled with anger and resentment.
The power fluctuations were more than twice as strong as before.
Li Shuwen frowned and took a step forward.
"Leave this to me." Li Shuwen's voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable power.
"Return to the island of Asia and act according to the prophecy."
Li Shuwen walked towards the Flame Bird.
The firebird spread its wings, crimson flames burning on its body, and spewed a blazing pillar of fire at Li Shuwen.
Li Shuwen turned to the side, and the pillar of fire grazed past his shoulder, blasting the reef behind him into fragments.
His right hand clenched into a fist, and black light began to gather at the tip of his fist.
That light was the power of his will, condensed from years of martial arts training, compressed to its extreme.
It was as black as ink and as deep as an abyss.
A hint of unease flashed in the Moltres's eyes.
He instinctively sensed the terror of that power, but his pride wouldn't allow him to back down.
He opened his mouth, and a second pillar of fire condensed deep in his throat.
Li Shuwen's fist had already been thrown. Dark Nether Strike.
The black light on the fist transformed into a jet-black shockwave, passing through the firebird's pillar of fire and splitting it in two.
The shockwave didn't dissipate; instead, it struck Moltres directly in the chest.
boom--!!!
Moltres was punched and sent flying, crashing to the ground, bouncing up, falling again, and sliding several meters.
A dark fist mark appeared on his chest, and the flames went out from the mark and could never be reignited.
He lay on the ground, the anger in his eyes completely gone, replaced by clarity and fear.
The intense pain brought him to his senses, reminding him of who he was, his mission, and that he shouldn't be controlled by anger.
Li Shuwen ignored him and turned to walk towards Zapdos.
Golden lightning crackled across Zapdos's body as it stared at the human approaching it, its eyes filled with arrogance.
He didn't believe that a human could defeat him.
He opened his mouth, and 100,000 volts transformed into a thick arc of electricity, striking towards Li Shuwen.
Li Shuwen did not dodge; he clenched his right fist again, and black light condensed on the tip of his fist.
He threw a punch, and the black shockwave of Dark Strike split the 100,000 volts in the middle. The electric arc exploded on his side, blasting two large craters into the ground.
The shockwave slammed straight into Zapdos's chest, bang!
Zapdos was sent flying by a punch and lay sprawled on the ground, its body charred black. All the arrogance in its eyes vanished, and it lay there obediently, its claws twitching, no longer daring to move.
Articuno looked at the miserable state of its two companions, and the terror in its eyes grew stronger.
He watched the human approaching him, and his wings began to tremble.
Don't come any closer!
Articuno could only watch helplessly as the fist drew ever closer.
Li Shuwen's fist glowed with black light again, unleashing the Dark Nether Strike.
With a punch, Articuno also flew out, landing next to Moltres and Zapdos.
A clean and decisive three-hit combo of Dark Nether Strike ended the battle.
Li Shuwen shrugged. "Sorry, a family should always be together."
In the ocean, Lugia slowly rose to the surface.
He stared at the three sacred birds lying on the ground, their eyes now clear again. His eyes were filled with shock.
He had lived for thousands of years, seen countless powerful figures and countless battles, but he had never seen a human being unleash such terrifying power.
That's not how it's written in the script, is it?
Lugia remained silent for a moment, then submerged into the sea without making a sound.
Just then, a green light shone from the direction of Asia Island.
The light emanated from the shrine, spreading outwards and illuminating the entire sea area.
Where the light passed, the sea returned to calm, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and sunlight shone through the gaps in the clouds, falling on the sea and breaking into golden spots.
The light continued to spread, covering the bodies of the three sacred birds.
The black fist mark on the Moltres's chest slowly dissipated, and the clarity in its eyes became even brighter.
Zapdos's charred body began to heal, and its golden feathers regained their luster.
Articuno's wings stopped trembling, it flapped its wings and took flight, letting out a clear cry towards Li Shuwen, before turning and flying towards Ice Island.
Moltres and Zapdos also took flight and returned to their respective islands.
The green light spread over Li Shuwen, warm and comfortable, like a spring breeze, like a mother's embrace.
He took a deep breath and felt the wave-guiding power within his body become more active.
Cynthia rode Garchomp to his side, looked him up and down, her eyes full of worry.
"Shuwen, are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Li Shuwen opened his arms and gently embraced her. "It's perfectly fine."
"You should be worried about whether the three sacred birds are alright."
Cynthia's lips curled up slightly, and she said nothing more.
The two embraced like that, the sunlight streaming through the clouds, falling warmly on them.
Garchomp crouched nearby, covering its eyes with its claws, but leaving its fingers wide open.
Milton hovered in mid-air, its back to them, the lightning on its tail flashing on and off as if keeping time.
Nyumerulong lay on the ground, a smile on her face.
