Chapter 151

【"Come out, Delibird."】

【Decades of planning are right in front of him. Pryce doesn't want to wait another second. He wants to take down Ash as fast as possible and then go capture Celebi.】

【"... Please, Mew."】

【At this time, he must let Mew take action. From that Delibird, Ash felt a bone-chilling cold.】

【Pikachu vs. Swinub, Mew vs. Delibird.】

【Pikachu was suppressed by Swinub and could only barely parry. Ash had expected this. What he didn't expect was that Mew actually fell into a bitter battle. He knew Pryce's Delibird was strong, but he never expected that Delibird would be strong to this extent. In the battle, it even suppressed Mew.】

【Misty, Brock, and Erika, who were watching from the sidelines, were already completely dumbfounded.】

【Delibird suppressing Mew, they seriously suspected they were dreaming.】

【Seeing the situation becoming increasingly unfavorable for their side, Ash finally couldn't hold back. He began to take action.】

【Aura Sphere.】

【And it's not an ordinary Aura Sphere, it's a Giant Aura Sphere.】

【One meter in diameter, the energy ball condensed by Aura shot straight at Pryce. Fast speed, fierce power—these are the characteristics of the Giant Aura Sphere.】

Lance: "Did you notice Pryce's expression? His eyeballs are about to pop out!"

Bruno: "Can't blame Pryce, it's Black Ash's actions that are too outrageous. Others command Pokémon to battle, he fights side-by-side with his Pokémon. Where has Pryce seen such a formation? He must be confused."

Diantha: "Black Ash is too unsportsmanlike, using tricks and sneak attacks on an old man. I feel sorry for Pryce for a second."

Wallace: "Should be taken down, right?"

【At the location where the Aura Sphere detonated, a huge deep pit appeared. This is the power of the Giant Aura Sphere.】

【"Won?"】

【"Probably not yet," Erika pointed at Ash. "Look at Ash's expression."】

【Misty looked in the direction Erika pointed, and sure enough, Ash's expression was solemn, not at all like he had achieved victory.】

【"Phew. Truly a terrifying guy," two meters away from the pit, Pryce slowly revealed his figure.】

【"Almost flipped over in the gutter."】

【If he hadn't reacted fast enough and let Swinub use Ice Beam at the critical moment to create an escape channel, the one who lost would be him.】

【But it's over now.】

【Ice men made of ice and water vapor appeared on the battlefield.】

【They are immortal. After being shattered, they will re-condense into ice men.】

【"If it were just you alone, you might really be able to defeat me. Unfortunately," Pryce shook his head.】

【"Surrender, boy."】

【"Do I have a second choice besides surrendering?" Ash said helplessly.】

【If he continued to fight, he would still have a chance of winning, but Pryce, this old man, was even more unsportsmanlike than him.】

【He didn't confront Ash head-on at all. He locked his breakthrough point on Ash's partners.】

【Misty, Brock, and Erika fell into Pryce's hands one after another. Ash no longer had a reason to continue fighting.】

【"Why, why must you capture Celebi?" Ash asked curiously.】

【The reason he didn't choose to resist to the end was because Ash felt that Pryce was not a bad person.】

【It wasn't just Ash who had this feeling; Mew felt the same.】

【"Finally found you."】

【A boy wearing sunglasses, looking sloppy, appeared riding Raikou and carrying Pichu.】

【"Gold, you persistent guy!!"】

【He had already come to another world, but he still couldn't get rid of Gold's pursuit.】

【Just at this moment, the fleeing Celebi also appeared, and the gap in time was opened again.】

【All six were swept into the gap in time.】

【In the gap in time, Ash, Misty, Brock, Erika, and Gold constantly traveled to the past, experiencing scenes that had happened before.】

【Not just their own, they also saw Pryce's past.】

【Young Pryce, because of his own mistake, let his two Lapras fall into the ice valley and lose their lives.】

【And the little Lapras that hatched at that time lost its father and mother as soon as it was born.】

【"Let me introduce, this is my Lapras, his name is Pao-Jia."】

【Pryce took out a Poké Ball and smiled lightly while looking at the Pokémon inside.】

136: Capture Celebi, Black Ash becomes the hatcher!

【"For Pao-Jia, I must return to the past!!!"】

【Capturing Ho-Oh and Lugia, stirring up terrorist attacks in the Kanto and Johto regions, everything Pryce did was to return to the past and make up for the mistakes he made.】

【"Just for this?" Erika was a bit surprised.】

【In the gap in time, Erika had completely seen Pryce's past. To capture Celebi and achieve the goal of returning to the past, Pryce had "washed" the entire Kanto and Johto regions in blood.】

【He used Ho-Oh to capture a large number of children, and even Team Rocket became his pawns. Erika originally thought Pryce's ultimate goal was to rule the world.】

Morty: "Is it a bit too outrageous?"

Jasmine: "I'm stupid, does that mean Ho-Oh was captured by Pryce twice?"

Eusine: "Suicune is still powerful. If it weren't for Suicune taking Entei and Raikou to protect the master with their lives, Ho-Oh wouldn't have been able to escape from Pryce's hands ten years ago."

Cynthia: "That, Leon, do you think you are Pryce's opponent?"

Leon: "The one who wins will definitely be me!"

As the number one person in the world, Leon still has his pride. He admits that Pryce is very strong, stronger than any opponent he has battled, but he believes that if they were to battle, the one who wins would definitely be him.

Diantha: "It's over, even Leon has started talking in his sleep."

Steven: "Wait until you can take down Ho-Oh and Lugia, then come to challenge Pryce!"

Steven has already defected. Now Leon is no longer the number one in his mind; he is now a fan of Pryce.

【"What do you mean just for this! Although you think it's a small matter, for me, it's the whole of my life!" Pryce roared.】

【"Gold, I lied to you," Pryce gently stroked the Swinub on his lap. "I said Pokémon are just my tools, actually that's not the case."】

【"Pokémon are my beloved! I have always loved them! The so-called tools are just other things made for my beloved."】

Pryce's words made the entire chat room instantly silent.

Everyone was savoring Pryce's words.

【"Absolutely, absolutely must stop you!"】

【At this moment, Gold finally understood why he was so angry at the enemy in front of him, why he just didn't like him, even though he was defeated every time, he still had to stop him.】

【Because their essence is the same, both treat Pokémon as family, and both are trainers with the talent for hatching.】

【"But, since Pryce's goal is not to destroy the world, nor to rule the world, but just to save the lost Pokémon, then why should we stop him?" Misty said weakly.】

【"Because, I just don't like him!!!" Gold said resentfully.】

【This is just an angry remark. The real reason is that Pryce's actions will cause irreparable damage to Celebi, and also, to achieve his goal, Pryce has hurt too many people. Gold will never let him go just like that.】

【Gold grabbed the ice man created by Pryce and followed Pryce towards the distant time and space.】

【"We'll follow too, Mew."】

【Because there is a GS Ball, or more accurately, feathers of Ho-Oh and Lugia, Ash can also freely shuttle through the gap in time.】

【"It's too pitiful for Celebi to be used by a guy like you," Gold roared.】

【"Hand over Celebi!"】

【Through Aura, Ash discovered that Celebi's state was getting worse and worse. If this continues, Celebi is likely to dissipate in the gap in time. This is something Ash cannot accept.】

【"What are you talking about? What do you know?"】

【"Do you know my feelings when I hatched the Pao-Jia egg? Do you know my feelings when I lost two Lapras and could only hold Pao-Jia?"】

【What Pryce didn't expect was that Gold nodded, "I understand, because, old man Oak said, I am also a hatcher."】

【The letter Professor Oak gave to Gold was written like this—That's right, Gold, your ability as a trainer is Pokémon hatching.】

【Perhaps even you haven't realized it, the Pokémon eggs you hatch can all become Pokémon that exert their potential to the maximum.】

Lance: "Is there such a heaven-defying ability in this world?"

Lorelei: "Then if Gold is tied in the hatchery, wouldn't he be invincible? No need to worry about not having high-talent Pokémon in the future."

Chairman Goodshow: "Our League is just missing a Gold now."

With Gold, what Team Rocket? Even if ten more Team Rockets came, they could handle them.
