Chapter 997: Xiao Zhi! Mr. Du! Arceus

Su Xiao Xiao: "...... Then! Next, we need to consider the issue on Xiao Zhi's side."

Su Han's gaze flickered slightly, shifting his attention to Xiao Zhi.

On Xiao Zhi's side, it seemed a strange anomaly had occurred—perhaps a transmigrator, a Reincarnator, or an invasion by special species like insect tribes, divine tribes, or beastmen! Su Han pondered for a moment and realized the possibilities were simply too numerous......

Xiao Zhi: "......"

Xiao Zhi: "President...... Do you know Arceus?"

Ti Qie Hui Li: "......"

Duotian Shi Yi Yi Hei Mao Shi: "......"

Hui Yuanai: "......"

Tony Not the Richest: "Arceus...... Can someone explain what Arceus is?"

Tony looked utterly bewildered, feeling the name sounded vaguely familiar, but in his memory copies of Pokémon, there was no dedicated segment introducing this Pokémon.

Before Xiao Zhi even spoke, Su Han cut straight to the explanation.

Su Xiao Xiao: "Arceus! The legendary Creator God of the Pokémon world! In its prime, Arceus is immune to all elemental attacks."

It can be called the strongest Pokémon in the world!"

Su Han's gaze flickered, and a suspicion formed in his mind—had the Arceus: Overclocked Space-Time arc already begun prematurely? But Xiao Zhi is still just a rookie Trainer from Kanto! This leap is far too extreme.

So...... Is it truly a world-level anomaly? Duotian Shi Yi Yi Hei Mao Shi: "...... I recall the Demon King didn't upload all the Pokémon series works?"

Wugeng Liuli's expression turned strange; she remembered clearly—Su Han had uploaded everything: Kanto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova regions......

Logically, if Arceus appeared in any of these...... works, we couldn't possibly have missed it.

Tony Not the Richest: "...... I sense a familiar aura!"

Aizen Sōsuke: "...... What a coincidence—I sense it too!"

My Little Sister Is Unbearably Unlovable: "When I saw all the Pokémon memory copies uploaded last time, I was surprised...... Clearly, things aren't as simple as they seem!"

Su Xiao Xiao: "...... I did indeed upload all the mainline memory copies of the Pokémon series!"

"Hmm...... Hmm!"

Her expression paused—he sharply caught the word "mainline" that Su Han had used.

Let the World Feel Pain: "...... Could the President explain what those...... non-mainline memory copies are?"

Xuan Wo Changmen twitched his lips but still said he was used to it.

Su Xiao Xiao: "Simply put...... the mainline ones are like the animated movies!"

Ti Qie Hui Li: "......"

Xiao Zhizhi Shu: "...... There's also this?"

Du Dao Ya Zi: "They uploaded the entire official plot but held back the movies...... I think the President did nothing wrong!"

Hei Qi Yihu: "...... So Arceus appeared in one of the anime movie memory copies?"

Su Xiao Xiao: "Yes! I'll send it right now."

Anyone interested can take a look—I'll first ask Xiao Zhi what exactly happened on his side!"

"Ding! Gonghui Society President Su Xiao Xiao uploaded a memory copy: 'Arceus.'"

"Overclocked Space-Time.'"

Miss Xia Shizi: "Though I have no chance to join the mission, I downloaded it immediately!"

My Little Sister Is Unbearably Unlovable: "Memory copies are the only thing that can pull me out of the World Tree Game."

Ze Tian Gang Ji: "Originally! My goal was to train myself, grow stronger continuously."

But now, besides training and growing stronger, my mission has gained another objective...... That is, to grind the World Tree Game!"

Ze Tian Gang Ji's expression turned serious—playing the World Tree Game? That wasn't playing. That was laying the foundation for future strength.

Yes! Ze Tian Gang Ji firmly believed he wasn't playing—he was training. Come to think of it, the World Tree Game was actually fun.

Still, Ze Tian Gang Ji didn't place all his hopes on the game—he maintained his own training intensity without lowering it.

Xiao Zhi: "Not long ago...... I met Mr. Du."

Duotian Shi Yi Yi Hei Mao Shi: "Mr. Du? The Dragon Tamer who's called invincible—the Champion of the Sinnoh region?"

Xiao Zhi: "Yes! It's...... him."

When I met him, due to my own abilities, he praised me highly, saying my combat power rivals that of a League Champion."

Tony Not the Richest: ""

Ti Qie Hui Li: ""

Miss Xia Shizi: ""

Xiao Zhi: "!!! Why are you all so shocked? Is there a problem with my combat power rivaling a Champion?"

Su Xiao Xiao: "...... Xiao Zhizhang's combat power rivals a Champion! No problem!"

Xiao Zhi: "You guys! Don't judge me by old standards from memory copies!!"

Xiao Zhi felt his heart was incredibly tired.

But after thinking it over, matters were more important.

He finally returned to discussing the issue.

Xiao Zhi: "Then I exchanged contact info with Mr. Du. Three hours ago, he called me and sent me a massive amount of data...... Then told me that if I was interested in joining the battle, I should call him—he'd send someone to pick me up."

Ti Qie Hui Li: "...... Terrifying! It seems something serious has indeed happened."

Mengqi Lage: "Indeed! For Mr. Du to consult a child who just left the Starter Village and is still traveling, with only Champion-level combat power, and ask if he wants to join the battlefield—clearly, the Pokémon League is severely lacking in combat strength."

...... Xiao Zhi: "And the message he sent me was this:...... In the Sinnoh region's Mijuma, Arceus has been confirmed to have awakened! The Pokémon League, all regional Champions, along with some autonomous divine beasts, are now battling and facing off against Arceus!"

Hei Qi Yihu: "...... I've briefly browsed 'Overclocked Space-Time' through immersion mode—I understand roughly what happened."

Hei Qi Yihu: "I feel that following the method from the memory copy should be enough to resolve Arceus."

Hei Qi Yihu finished reading the transcended timeline and felt that Arceus was not entirely evil; this... Creator God of the Pokémon world indeed possessed his own magnanimity; his current state could only be blamed on humanity's betrayal of him.

What humanity ought to do is seek his forgiveness, rather than endlessly fight against him...

Satoshi: "Although I don't know what the Chairman's memory copy truly is, my situation is this... Arceus appears to be under the control of an unknown individual!"

Satoshi: "Moreover, this unknown individual possesses extraordinarily powerful combat ability."

Satoshi: "The Sinnoh Champion, Mr. Da Wu, attempted to detain this unknown individual—but was defeated barehanded, with all his Pokémon shattered."

Even severely wounded!

When Satoshi first heard this news, he wondered inwardly: how eerily similar this situation is to his own—barehandedly defeating Pokémon, terrifying beyond measure!
