The entire Ultra Megalopolis was not very large, about the size of Blueberry Academy at most.
After Axel left Necrozma and the others behind, Gyarados teleported in an instant to the location of Colress's research institute.
The two Genesect wrecks in his hands were badly burned. Their original colors were completely gone, and their bodies were charred black.
It was like fully melted iron that had been casually kneaded back into shape.
Fortunately, Axel could still sense mental fluctuations from the two Genesect. That meant they were not completely dead and still had a chance to be saved.
In fact, the rules of the Pokémon world were like this. It was very hard for a Pokémon to be killed in a single strike.
Unless someone kept attacking a Pokémon that was already near death, or the gap between both sides was like a huge chasm.
Overall, this was still a very utopian world.
"Colress!", Axel called out at the door.
Colress quickly walked out, looking at Axel with devotion. He was just about to kneel respectfully, but his attention was soon drawn to the Genesect in Axel's hands.
His voice carried a hint of confusion, "Huh? It's actually this version of Genesect?"
"Such an ancient design. The attributes aren't perfect at all, and it can't switch Drives on its own. It relies too much on manual control."
"Lord Savior, why did you pick up something this outdated?"
Axel handed the Genesect to Colress and spoke calmly.
"I saw they were about to die, so I brought them to you. See if you can save them."
"If you can, check their parameters and use them to test the city's artillery power."
Colress nodded, indicating he could repair them, then immediately added some flattery.
"Lord Savior, your consideration is truly thorough. As expected of a hero who can save the world."
"With specific Pokémon parameters, we'll be able to calculate the most precise artillery data. You're simply a genius!"
Axel: "..."
Mewtwo's brainwashing method was still way too awkward.
Originally, he had planned to punish Colress. Now he was the one getting disgusted by Colress every single day.
It felt awful.
Fortunately, the suffering did not last long. Colress quickly revived the two Genesect and restored them to their peak condition.
"Lord Savior, without control, this kind of Pokémon is very dangerous. Should I activate the Colress Machine?"
"No need," Axel waved lightly and grabbed the two restrained Genesect.
After obtaining the power of the God of Psychic and Groudon, Pokémon of this level could hardly pose any threat to him anymore.
Soon, Axel brought Colress and the two Genesect back to Sky Island.
Ho-Oh had already rescued all of Lysandre's Pokémon. They were now watching cartoons beside Mewtwo.
Lysandre and Colress were still in the same state as when they had first appeared, frozen into ice statues by Kyurem.
The brainwashed Colress glanced at the frozen Colress, and a trace of disdain immediately flashed in his eyes.
"Trash. He's not even on the same level as me. It's hard to imagine that I'd be this useless in another world."
"Even his scientific glasses are only at the second generation. He's not even comparable to half a toe of Lord Savior?"
"And you?", Axel asked curiously.
Colress immediately raised his head proudly, "I'm almost equal to one of Lord Savior's toes."
Axel: "..."
Axel felt tired. He was asking which generation the glasses were, not about toes.
"Enough...", Axel turned his head helplessly and asked Ho-Oh to restore Colress and Lysandre.
The two instantly showed excited expressions and shouted in joy.
"Awesome! I'm going to build my ideal nation!"
"Hahaha! I'll become the world's number one scientist!"
Axel: "..."
It was hard to imagine that he could be speechless so many times in one single day.
Kyurem had frozen them too quickly earlier. These two still had not realized what was going on.
'Maybe look at your surroundings before celebrating?'
Before Axel could speak, the brainwashed Colress beside him had already moved.
The flying device under his feet shot out like a sharp sword. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Colress and slapped him hard.
Smack!
With a crisp sound, the excitement on Colress's face disappeared. Only then did he see the Colress who looked exactly like himself standing before him.
"Y... who are you?"
"I'm your father!", The brainwashed Colress looked at this world's version of himself with disdain, as if looking at a dog.
"Don't you see what level you're at? And you dare covet my master's territory?"
"Only by following Lord Savior can the whole world shine with glory!"
Being beaten by himself, Colress was instantly dumbfounded.
But immediately after, his gaze followed the direction of the finger the other Colress pointed at. Fear completely crushed the confusion in his heart, and he let out a strange cry.
"Ax... Axel!"
"How are you here? Isn't this the Ultra Wormhole where Colress is supposed to be?"
Colress staggered back in horror, trembling like he had seen a ghost.
Lysandre looked at Colress in confusion, "Why are you so scared?"
"Even if he saved Sinnoh, that was only because Cyrus's Red Chain was taken. You don't have to be this afraid, do you?"
"The Red Chain?", The Colress of the Pokémon world showed a bitter expression.
As Ghetsis's former subordinate and Pryce's strategic partner, Colress was very clear about how terrifying Axel was.
'Ghetsis was strong, right? Gone in a single encounter.'
'Kyurem, Zekrom, and Reshiram were strong, right?'
'Aren't they all obediently lying beside Axel now?'
"Mr... Mr. Axel, I..."
Axel grinned and interrupted Colress's explanation, "Relax, I'm not hitting you this time."
"Also, let me reintroduce myself. The trainers of the Sun and Moon gods are my parents."
"So, I am the one here who is..."
The brainwashed Colress lifted his lower lip high, raised his head proudly, and took over Axel's sentence.
"Lord Savior!"
Axel: "..."
'Damn it, I'm the crown prince! The crown prince!'
"Alright, let's talk business. Since you two are already here, don't be in a hurry to leave."
Axel pointed at the city in the distance, his tone serious.
"See those statues? They're the defensive power of Ultra Megalopolis."
"In a moment, I'll have Necrozma move the passage a hundred meters away, and I'll activate the weapon system at the same time."
"As long as you can run out, we'll pretend we never met. How about that?"
Lysandre and Colress looked at each other, both seeking confirmation in the other's eyes.
But before they could exchange a glance, the brainwashed Colress activated the Colress Machine and had the two Genesect each slap the backs of their heads.
"What are you whispering about?"
"The master is already letting you off, so hurry up and say thank you!"
After saying that, Colress put away his arrogant expression and trotted humbly to Mewtwo's side.
"Wouldn't you agree, Lord Mewtwo?"
Axel froze for a moment, then gave Mewtwo a thumbs up.
He had thought Mewtwo stabbed him in the back... but it turned out to be friendly fire on everyone!
