Seeing Mewtwo in the footage—fighting Mew on equal footing, neither gaining the upper hand—everyone watching was stunned.
In the world of pirates.
At the Marine science division, Vegapunk's face was filled with disbelief.
Wasn't Mewtwo a Pokémon cloned by humans?
Then how could it possess such terrifying power?
A clone rivaling the original?!
How was that even possible?
According to the video, Mew had been born alongside the world itself and had existed for countless ages.
But Mewtwo?
It had only existed for a few years.
And yet, it could already stand shoulder to shoulder with Mew!
"…It seems the research into modified humans must be accelerated."
Vegapunk wrote down a few words on paper.
Pacifista.
Marine Headquarters.
Garp and Sengoku were both dumbfounded.
"So all these sixty or seventy years I've lived… were for nothing? If someone got my genes, wouldn't they be able to reach my current strength in just a few years?!"
"That Team Rocket… they're the villains of that Pokémon world, right?"
"Good thing our world doesn't have something like that. Even the Four Emperors are just brutes. I never imagined technology could reach this level…"
Sengoku's expression was grave.
In their world, technology had always been auxiliary.
Even Vegapunk's weapons were only support tools.
Against top-tier fighters, only other top-tier fighters could stand.
But now—
The technological power displayed by Team Rocket completely changed his perspective.
If the Marines possessed such technology…
If they could clone a hundred Garps—
Then all evil in the pirate world would be wiped out.
Super God Academy.
Scientists were in shock.
Their universe also had gods and advanced civilizations.
Within the academy—
A figure drifting through time gazed at the video.
The God of Time—Kieran.
Looking at Mewtwo, who could rival Mew, he was deeply shaken.
He himself was deciphering divine genes—
Calling it the Three Great God-Making Projects.
"This TOP4…"
"It has to be Mewtwo."
"A mortal body… rivaling a god."
"Created by humans, yet able to battle Mew."
Naruto world.
In the Pure Land.
"Tobirama, this kind of technology is terrifying. If there were a hundred Madaras… that would be a nightmare."
Hearing that, Hashirama shuddered.
The image alone was enough to make one despair.
"Thankfully, our world doesn't have that level of technology. Power here comes from bloodline limits."
Pokémon world.
Professor Oak and the others were completely stunned.
Mewtwo reaching second-tier divine beast level had already shocked them.
But now—
It could rival Mew?!
This had to be a dream.
Five years!
Just five years to reach first-class divine beast level?!
What kind of absurdity was this?!
"This is a future timeline. Giovanni must be eliminated. Team Rocket must be destroyed!"
All regional Leagues reached a unified conclusion.
The power Team Rocket displayed in the video sent fear through the entire world.
They felt fortunate—
Grateful to the video creator, Rin Aokawa, for revealing the future.
Otherwise…
With such strength, Giovanni would have conquered the world.
Champions and Elite Four members were nothing before true divine beasts—
Let alone before Mewtwo.
Pallet Town, Professor Oak's Lab.
Professor Oak muttered under his breath:
"A mortal body… rivaling a god…"
"The true subject of TOP4 isn't Mew…"
"It's Mewtwo!"
Viridian Forest, Team Rocket base.
"Hahahahaha! Mewtwo! Mewtwo!"
"This is the ultimate Pokémon I created?! A first-class divine beast—equal to Mew?!"
"The true TOP4… isn't Mew. It's Mewtwo!!"
Giovanni, usually calm and composed, was now completely unrestrained—laughing wildly, utterly losing his usual dignity.
Across all worlds—
Combining the title:
"A mortal body, rivaling a god"
Everyone had reached the same conclusion.
TOP4 referred to—
Mewtwo.
The video continued.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The battle raged on.
The sky had already shattered.
The far north was in ruins.
Permafrost melted into massive craters.
Gigantic glaciers were torn apart.
In the sky—
Two blazing spheres clashed like twin suns.
Lightning and sparks danced wildly.
The sky resembled shattered glass, cracks spreading endlessly.
Zzzzt—!
Crack! Crack!
A sharp sound rang out.
One of the spheres shattered.
It was Mewtwo's.
At that instant—
Mew's tail lit up with terrifying white energy.
It tore through the air—
And struck Mewtwo with a devastating blow.
Iron Tail.
Whoosh—BOOM!!
Like a meteor, Mewtwo crashed into the frozen land—
Smashing through a glacier before being buried beneath the ice.
Mew pressed the advantage.
Its eyes glowed blue as energy surged.
Then—
It pointed toward Mewtwo's location.
Dark ripples formed at its fingertip—
And blasted downward.
Dark Pulse.
A Dark-type move.
Super effective against Psychic-types.
As the progenitor of all Pokémon, Mew could use moves of any type.
Boom!
At that moment—
The glacier exploded.
Mewtwo rose from the ruins.
And was instantly engulfed by the Dark Pulse.
Crack! Crack!
The attack crushed down upon it.
Mewtwo's body was restrained, the ground beneath it collapsing layer by layer.
"Looks like Mewtwo has lost. Psychic-types are countered by Dark-types. Dark Pulse not only deals heavy damage—it also weakens their mental power."
A Champion specializing in Dark-types shook his head.
For Psychic Pokémon—
Strength was determined by mental power.
In equal-level battles, victory came down to whose psychic power was stronger and more enduring.
If one side's mental strength was weakened—
The battle was already decided.
But in the next moment—
The Champion's eyes widened.
On screen—
Mewtwo's body began to glow white.
Then—
It changed.
Before everyone's eyes—
Mewtwo's muscles swelled.
Its legs became powerful.
Its arms bulged like coiled dragons.
It now resembled a perfect fighter.
Mewtwo crossed its arms—
Then violently broke free.
The Dark Pulse shattered.
Everyone was stunned.
Had Mewtwo… evolved?!
[Mewtwo X Form—one of Mewtwo's alternate forms]
[In this form, Mewtwo gains Fighting-type attributes]
[Its physical strength is greatly enhanced, but its Psychic abilities are weakened]
…What?!
It had form changes?!
Just like Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza?!
Fighting-type…
Which countered Dark-type.
No wonder it broke free instantly.
[Although Mewtwo X Form greatly enhances physical power]
[Mewtwo wishes to defeat Mew using Psychic power—fair and square]
On screen—
Mewtwo canceled its X Form, returning to normal.
But it wasn't over.
With a thought—
Its body glowed again.
This time—
It shrank.
Undergoing another drastic transformation.
When it reappeared—
Mewtwo looked completely different.
Its body became smaller—
About fifty centimeters tall, almost like an infant.
Its long tail vanished—
Replaced by a thin, tail-like appendage extending from the back of its head.
Everyone stared in shock.
Mewtwo…
Had two forms?!
