Chapter 496: Asking the Creator of All for the Power to Become Human!

The Legendary Pokémon gathered in Desert City today were, in truth, feeling quite aggrieved.

It was one thing for Hu Pa Unbound to drag them here as muscle, but after working themselves to the bone fighting for half the day, they ended up getting scolded by Arceus.

Hu Pa was a Pokémon created by Arceus, and since this entire incident was caused by Hu Pa Unbound, if anyone were to be held accountable, Arceus should at least shoulder half the blame.

Yet, in the end, the ones getting scolded were them, the victims. There was simply no justice in this.

If Arceus weren't the Supreme God—if they stood a chance at winning—they might have gone up and slapped Arceus twice across the face.

The other Legendary Pokémon aside, the ones feeling the most aggrieved were undoubtedly the three Legendary Pokémon from the Sinnoh region.

For Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina, Arceus, who had personally created them, was akin to a father figure.

Yet, without a word, Arceus had created a "second father" (Hu Pa) to keep them in check, and now, even a random Eevee could take on all three of them and beat them into the ground.

Truth be told, the three of them controlled Time, Space, and the Distortion World respectively; they were existence of the highest caliber among all Legendary Pokémon.

But in today's battle of legends, the three of them had been reduced to mere jokes.

Hu Pa was one thing, but what was up with that Eevee they had fought?

Now, the three of them had reason to suspect that the Eevee they fought was just like Hu Pa—inextricably linked to Arceus, the one who created them!

Otherwise, it made no sense for a mere common Pokémon to possess the power to suppress the three Sinnoh legends!

The other Legendary Pokémon didn't rush to leave; in truth, they were staying behind to watch the drama unfold.

Just like the Sinnoh trio, they didn't believe for a second that Yu Shengzai was just an ordinary Eevee.

How could an ordinary Pokémon possess such immense power? If any random Eevee could beat them into submission, what dignity would they, the Legendary Pokémon, have left?

"Eevee, Eevee!" (If I'm not mistaken, Hu Pa was also a Pokémon created by you, right?

Since that's the case, shouldn't you, as Hu Pa's creator, shoulder at least half the blame for the massive chaos caused today?

Although you were the one who finally resolved the trouble, I can't deny that, but I worked incredibly hard in this battle to clean up your mess. If you just turn around and leave without offering any compensation or reward, that's a bit unreasonable, don't you think?)

The human Trainers present couldn't understand the language of Pokémon, so they had no idea what Yu Shengzai was saying to Arceus.

But the Legendary Pokémon who could understand him were all stunned.

This Eevee was simply too fierce! He was saying things to Arceus's face that even they, the Legendary Pokémon, wouldn't dare utter.

That was the Creator of All! Wasn't he afraid of being erased from existence by Arceus?

"You dare to accuse me, and demand compensation from me..."

Even Arceus was caught off guard by Yu Shengzai's words.

Meanwhile, Diantha and the others were shocked to see Yu Shengzai daring to question the legendary Creator of All, Arceus, and demanding compensation.

He was the Creator of the entire world; he couldn't be judged by the standards of a mere Pokémon. Even though human wisdom might surpass that of Pokémon, Diantha and her group still held a deep sense of reverence for a Mythical Pokémon like Arceus.

Having spent some time with Yu Shengzai, Diantha had developed a deep affection for him. Fearing that he would provoke Arceus and be erased, she tried to step forward to explain, but was blocked by an invisible barrier.

"Arceus, he didn't mean to provoke you. He is the Pokémon I've been caring for; I can apologize to you on his behalf."

Looking at the invisible barrier blocking her, Diantha could only shout at Arceus.

She understood that Yu Shengzai was powerful—strong enough to suppress and defeat many Legendary Pokémon—but Arceus was different. As the origin of all Pokémon, challenging him was undoubtedly an incredibly unwise act.

"This is a matter between him and me; you humans have no right to interfere. Besides, possessing such power, how could he ever submit to a human?

I can sense your uniqueness; you possess power that even I cannot see through.

I shall ask you then: what kind of compensation or reward do you wish to obtain from me?"

Hearing Arceus's response, all the Pokémon and human Trainers present were stunned.

Originally, everyone present had assumed that because Yu Shengzai had spoken to the Supreme God of this world in such a tone, and even demanded compensation, he would likely be erased or destroyed for provoking Arceus.

But to their surprise, the response given by the Supreme Creator was completely unexpected.

The Supreme Creator not only didn't get angry, but seemed genuinely willing to offer Yu Shengzai some compensation?

If they had known Arceus was this easy to talk to, they would have asked for things too.

The Legendary Pokémon and human Trainers admired Yu Shengzai's courage, but they didn't know that if he hadn't had a bit of confidence, he wouldn't have dared to challenge Arceus either.

Although Arceus was formidable, Yu Shengzai had the "Damage Nullification" ability from the Yu-Gi-Oh world.

While he couldn't beat Arceus, he possessed enough defensive means to ensure his own survival.

"Since you are the Creator of this world, you must have a way to let me go to other worlds, right?"

That's right; ever since he anticipated that he might one day meet the Creator of All, Yu Shengzai had already planned what he would ask of him.

The Yu Shengzais in other worlds were surrounded by beauties, yet he, Yu Shengzai the Eevee, could only watch the movies in their shared memories and do nothing else. He had been harboring deep resentment over this for a long time.

"It is a pity; if that is the compensation you desire, I am powerless to grant it."

Seeing Arceus shake his head, Yu Shengzai looked disappointed. "No way, isn't the Creator of All supposed to be omnipotent?

Why are you so..."

Yu Shengzai was about to call him useless, but seeing Arceus's displeased expression, and remembering he still had a favor to ask, he quickly changed his tune. "Ahem, I mean, the Creator of All is truly impressive.

Since that request is impossible, I'll change it. I want the power to transform into a human. You should be able to do that, right?"

There weren't many beautiful girls in the Pokémon world. If he could, Yu Shengzai would rather go roam other worlds.

But since the Creator of All said he couldn't do the first thing, he had to settle for second best.

As the Creator of the entire world, Arceus possessed the power to grant Yu Shengzai the ability to transform into a human, but he was a bit confused as to why Yu Shengzai would want such power.

Pokémon and humans thought differently; their living habits and aesthetics were also quite different.

In Arceus's view, Yu Shengzai's desire to transform into a human was just as strange as a human's wish to transform into a Pokémon.
