Chapter 305: Is Black Ash Being Controlled? Rocket Team Strikes at Aqua Team!

?

What's the situation?

Everyone stared dumbfounded; this blue orb entered Black Satoshi's body—doesn't that mean Black Satoshi controls Groudon and the Aqua Team captain Shui Wutong's controlled Kyogre are about to have a big battle!

【Yulongdu: How did it get onto Black Satoshi? Will the situation not get worse now!】

【Professor Xiaotianjuan: Is it to be like Shui Wutong, preparing for a two-person showdown? I don't know if Black Satoshi can hold onto his mind.】

The two orbs' ancient power is extremely strong, enough to influence and control people's minds.

The negative power of the orb will erode the controller's spirit; when people try to use the orb to control ancient Pokémon, this negative power takes effect, gradually affecting the controller's mind, making them lose themselves, and finally be completely controlled by the orb.

Black Satoshi and Shui Wutong should have a big battle, which should be even more intense than that of the White World.

Each person has a legendary Pokémon, and their relationship is quite complex, representing the opposing yet interdependent forces in nature; each battle leads to the expansion and change of land and sea.

This legend is known by most; those who don't know it, after seeing the White Light Curtain, Kyogre, and Groudon appear, all rush to catch up on it.

【Daito: Sure, Ash's will is very firm; the blue orb can't control him.】

That certain?

That's an ancient orb; even if Black Satoshi has wave-guiding power and supernatural abilities, they might not withstand it.

It's not that they don't trust Black Satoshi much; rather, based on the origin of the two orbs, that is a treasure capable of controlling legendary Pokémon, containing ancient power; so far no one has been seen able to forcibly control it, and Shui Wutong was also forcibly controlled, losing himself.

However, Black Satoshi also has many legendary Pokémon around him; perhaps they help him take out the blue orb.

This time, the two great gods of the Johto Region come out to battle; will Black Satoshi release the divine beasts of the Kanto and Johto regions? They want to see which region's divine beast is stronger in their battle.

Black World—

Ash and his group were just observing on the shore when they heard a low, muffled thunder-like roar.

They saw a huge, deep-blue-bodied Pokémon with red stripes etched on it, slowly emerging from the Magma Team's base.

That's the Kyogre that the Aqua Team has been desperately seeking!

Every time it sways its body, the surrounding seawater surges tumultuously, forming huge waves.

Kyogre's deep eyes flashed with a cold, dignified light; its mouth began to gather a grass-type energy. In an instant, a dazzling beam shot from its mouth.

Boom—

The Magma Team's secret base was then split in two by that Solar Beam.

One Solar Beam strike split the Magma Team's base in half.

Is that the power of an ancient Pokémon?

Brock stared wide-eyed.

While traveling in the Johto Region, they would learn about the area's affairs and naturally ask about the Johto Region's legend.

Whoosh!

A strong strange feeling surged from within his body; Ash felt a surging, vigorous energy like a runaway horse rampaging inside him, as if it wanted to completely take over his body.

Now he can only forcefully endure it; he cannot let that blue orb's energy control him.

Bean-sized sweat beads kept rolling down his forehead, his face turning pale.

"Pika—Pika!" Pikachu's keen perception first sensed Ash's abnormality; his originally lively eyes were now full of worry.

Misty supported the swaying Ash; her eyes fixed on him, full of anxiety and heartache.

Just then, she suddenly noticed strange red patterns appearing on Ash's body, like flames spreading across his skin, flashing with an eerie, dangerous light.

"Ash, are you alright?"

Misty's voice trembled slightly as she asked anxiously; her hands unconsciously tightened their grip on Ash's arm.

Everyone looked at Ash, but there was nothing they could do; they didn't know how to remove that blue orb.

"I... I'm fine!" Ash said weakly after a long while.

His chin weakly rested on Misty's shoulder; he forced a smile and whispered, "Really, I... I'm fine."

Misty looked at Ash's pale face and weak appearance, her expression growing more anxious.

Her eye sockets slightly reddened, tears swirling inside but she held them back; she gently patted Ash's back in a soft, soothing motion, as if this could ease his pain and make him a bit more comfortable.

Meanwhile, Pikachu no longer perched on his shoulder, but clung tightly to Ash's feet, occasionally rubbing its head against his leg.

Soon, Adu arrived riding a Dragonite.

He understood the situation here and told everyone the origin of that orb.

It was created by ancient people to control Groudon and Kyogre, containing strong power; its possessor is easily controlled by it mentally.

"How can we take it out?" Misty asked urgently.

"We have to go to the Magma Team and Aqua Team's side to communicate!"

Adu looked toward the distant island.

"Then let's go!"

Ash stood up; he was already fine, the orb inside him had no effect.

"It's fine." Seeing everyone's worried faces, Ash smiled slightly: "That orb is also guiding me there; it seems something big is going to happen over there."

On the other hand, due to the Magma Team's secret base falling into chaos, the Team Rocket Trio fled to an island.

And they happened to see the Aqua Team and the Magma Team here.

"Could they be allies?"

Shijiro expressed his opinion.

"No, they're not on the same side; their expressions look more like they're negotiating."

Meowth crept closer, using equipment to eavesdrop on their conversation.

Soon after, the Team Rocket Trio realized that the Magma Team and Aqua Team were hiding each other's sought-after Kyogre and Groudon, and now they just need to exchange them.

After hearing their plan, the Team Rocket Trio looked around.

Why are there so many Aqua Team members gathered here?

They saw many Aqua Team members stationed in a mountain range; Miaomiao hid behind a rock, revealing half its head, its tail nervously curled.

Haha, I feel we can now finish the task Boss Sakaki gave us in one go.

Musashi laughed twice, she told Kojiro and Miaomiao that they had just destroyed the Magma Team's base and now arrived at the Aqua Team's base; it seems their luck is good, they can destroy the Aqua Team's base.

"Yes." Kojiro's eyes lit up.

Saying they'd do it, the Team Rocket Trio again showed Team Rocket's battle quality, disguising themselves as Aqua Team members, sneaking into their base to scout the situation.

After a few operations, the Team Rocket Trio, relying on their solid skills, passed the Aqua Team members' checks and inquiries smoothly, and all the way reached the Magma Team's important location.

"Another legendary Poké Ball!!!"

The Team Rocket Trio were greatly shocked; its size was on the same level as that Kyogre.

This Poké Ball before them must be the Groudon the Magma Team has been seeking.

Unable to contain their excitement, the Team Rocket Trio began discussing how to make Groudon theirs.

They thought, if they gave Groudon to Boss Sakaki, they'd surely get promoted!

Besides, after taking out the Magma Team and Aqua Team, they could certainly become Boss Sakaki's favorite!
