"…That… is that the orb the Draconid people gave you?"
Cynthia looked at the green orb in Chen Shi's hand, clearly surprised.
She had gone with him before.
That old woman from the Draconids had handed over this orb—
saying it was left behind by the Dragon God.
But—
no one knew what it did.
Or how to use it.
And now—
Chen Shi had taken it out.
Had he already figured it out?
"Old Chen, you actually have a solution?" Steven Stone asked excitedly.
Chen Shi shot him an annoyed look.
"You think I'm like you? Taking something and then doing nothing with it?"
"Leaving all the work to me?"
Steven coughed awkwardly.
…He couldn't really argue with that.
Originally—
both of them had been entrusted with this.
But in the end—
it all fell on Chen Shi.
…
Just as Steven was about to respond—
a deafening roar erupted from the sky.
…
Across League headquarters worldwide—
alarms blared once more.
"Report! Another massive lifeform fluctuation has appeared over Sootopolis' seas—suspected Legendary Pokémon!"
"What?! Another one?!" the official's face darkened.
Groudon and Kyogre were already enough.
Now—
a third?!
If all three fought—
the consequences would be unimaginable.
…
In Kanto—
orders were issued.
Preparations began.
…
In Kalos—
Zygarde paused.
"…So it did come."
It stopped its own intervention.
This—
was Rayquaza's domain.
…
Deep beneath the sea—
Lugia looked up excitedly.
"Haha… the big green sky dragon is here."
"Now this is a real show!"
Even higher beings—
like Ho-Oh and Giratina—
were watching.
…
Back above Hoenn—
Steven's eyes lit up.
"Old Chen—is that Rayquaza?!"
"It has to be, right?!"
Lance frowned.
"Rayquaza? Who's that?"
The others also looked confused.
But Chen Shi—
didn't explain.
Instead—
he threw a Poké Ball.
Red light flashed.
A Dragonite appeared.
Dragonite.
"Uff~"
Dragonite scratched its head shyly—
until it noticed everyone staring.
Then—
it turned—
and saw the battlefield.
Its entire body froze.
"…Uff?!"
(You're not seriously asking me to fight those two, right?!)
Chen Shi grinned.
"What, scared?"
Dragonite looked again—
at the apocalyptic clash of Groudon and Kyogre.
Its antenna drooped.
It swallowed hard.
At this moment—
Dragonite truly wanted to cry.
Back when its trainer said:
"Little bro needs help, go protect him."
It had agreed without hesitation.
After all—
how hard could that be?
But now—
this "little bro" had thrown it straight into a god-tier battlefield.
Dragonite: This is impossible…
Chen Shi laughed.
"Relax, I'm not sending you to fight them."
"Just fly me over."
Dragonite's eyes lit up instantly.
That—
it could do.
This Dragonite—
was none other than Professor Oak's peak Legendary-level Dragonite.
Chen Shi had borrowed it earlier—
though it hadn't been needed… until now.
…
Before Steven could ask more—
another roar split the sky.
This time—
everyone heard it clearly.
Groudon and Kyogre paused—
then attacked even more violently.
They had truly gone all out.
Chen Shi handed Jirachi to Cynthia.
"Stay here."
"Protect yourselves."
He patted Jirachi's head.
"Take care of Cynthia for me."
"…Okay." Jirachi nodded reluctantly.
The next moment—
Chen Shi jumped onto Dragonite.
He recalled Dragapult—
and soared upward.
Then—
the sky changed.
The thick clouds—
were torn apart.
A blinding light burst through.
And from within—
a colossal green dragon descended.
Its serpentine body coiled through the sky—
scales gleaming with an ancient, emerald glow.
Rayquaza.
The moment it appeared—
Groudon and Kyogre stopped.
Then roared—
launching attacks toward it.
But Rayquaza—
dodged effortlessly.
Its cold gaze—
locked onto Chen Shi.
Chen Shi met its eyes—
and grinned.
"Faster!"
Dragonite surged forward—
heading straight toward Rayquaza.
Rayquaza—
instead of attacking—
shot toward him.
"Old Chen… what is he doing…?" Steven muttered.
Meanwhile—
on a nearby helicopter—
a reporter shouted excitedly:
"Unbelievable!"
"Chen Shi is flying straight toward the green dragon Pokémon!"
"What is he trying to do?!"
