Chapter 91: The Legendary Bird Has Arrived! Who Is Bullying My Dog!

"Roar!!"

Entei roared, unaware that it, Entei, was the most righteous of all?

Wanting to get the location of Raikou from it? Dream on!

I, Entei, would rather jump off this mountain than betray my brother! Absolutely not!

"Truly has a bottom line, fine, then I'll give you some dignity."

Mawile raised an eyebrow; for such a Pokémon, he was willing to offer respect.

Compared to Suicune, he quite liked Entei too; although Suicune had the deepest connection with the Legendary Bird's guard and the Legendary Bird itself, Entei was absolutely also favored by the Legendary Bird.

After all, Entei was the one taught the Sacred Fire by the Legendary Bird!

"Roar!"

Entei roared, white scorching flames igniting around its body; this was the pseudo-exclusive move Sacred Fire, a technique only the Legendary Bird and Entei could learn!

However, unlike the Legendary Bird's multicolored flames, the one Entei used was white.

Surging Sacred Fire swept out, rushing toward the Mega Mewtwo Y.

Yet facing this oncoming white flame, the Mega Mewtwo Y remained motionless, revealing a deep purple protective barrier.

Boom!

The Sacred Fire heavily struck the barrier; high-temperature flames exploded violently, yet they could not blast open the protective barrier at all.

"This move is truly practical~"

Seeing this scene, Caitlin could not help but feel extremely envious.

She had asked the Mega Mewtwo Y; strictly speaking, this protective barrier was not a move, but an application of Psychic-type transformation.

It was a move combining offense and defense, created by the Mega Mewtwo Y using its own powerful Psychic powers to imitate and modify the Protect move.

But the primary prerequisite was that the user themselves must possess extremely powerful Psychic powers, requiring not only 'quality' but also 'quantity'.

And this Psychic barrier was not only excellent in defense; it also belonged to the category of moves combining offense and defense!

That's right, the Mega Mewtwo Y could even directly drive this barrier to ram opponents! And the damage was very high!

This made Caitlin quite troubled; she was very covetous of this Psychic barrier because among her current main team, only Tapu Lele barely qualified to learn it.

Moreover, it required Caitlin to boost her own Psychic powers onto Tapu Lele before it could barely be applied.

Even if it was used, leaving aside how the defense was, the key point was that Tapu Lele only lasted five minutes before collapsing on the ground exhausted, panting heavily; what use was that?

This was not as good as letting Tapu Lele just use Protect directly; at least the consumption wasn't that exaggerated.

The reason the Mega Mewtwo Y could learn this without a master was that its starting point after awakening was a top-tier existence in this world, inferior only to those Legendary Pokémon. (Here referring to high-tier Legendaries like the Legendary Bird.)

Its Psychic power within its body, compared to ordinary Psychic-type Pokémon and Psychic-type Legendaries, was without exaggeration like an endless ocean.

This was an innate gap; there was no comparison.

Hmm, at least knowing this, Tapu Lele was consumed by envy and jealousy, so angry that it ate an extra table of small cakes that night.

The Sacred Fire attack ended; looking at the unharmed Mega Mewtwo Y, Entei's eyes were extremely Solemn.

This fellow was indeed very strong! No wonder Suicune was defeated.

Should I retreat first?

Entei felt conflicted in its heart at this moment; it felt it was probably not a match for this fellow, and staying here any longer would likely compromise its own safety, after all, that human opposite coveted its perfect body.

But running away like this, was that not good? Suicune was still trapped inside that Poké Ball, waiting for it to rescue.

"What's wrong? Entei, are you retreating? Don't want to save your companion anymore? So the legendary Entei is also a bully who fears the strong, huh?"

Seeing Entei not attack for a while, Mawile smiled and asked it.

Entei's fiery temper, how could it stand such provocation?

"Roar!!"

Entei directly launched an attack against the Mega Mewtwo Y; it used Flamethrower, surging flames Xiong Xiong igniting to wrap around Entei's entire body, momentum magnificent!

Driven to the brink, Entei felt it was terrifyingly strong now! This might be the strongest Flamethrower it had ever used in its life!

It would win! It must save Suicune, teeth gritted!!

And then...

"Not bad, caught another Entei."

Mawile laughed happily, looking at the Great Ball on his hand containing Entei; luck was truly good.

"I wonder if Raikou will sense the 'accident' of Suicune and Entei and rush over to rescue them?"

Mawile thought with considerable curiosity.

And far away from the group, a figure like a thunderclap was rushing over quickly!

That's right, it was the legendary Raikou; it happened to be nearby as well.

And at this moment, not far from Blue Mountain in the Kanto region, inside a volcano, boiling lava bubbled with heat, and within that scorching magma, a colorful large bird was comfortably 'taking a bath'.

No choice, bird life is too long; usually, one can only spend days leisurely like this.

But the next moment, those comfortably closed bird eyes suddenly snapped open, full of surprise and doubt.

"Strange."

The Legendary Bird was full of doubt because it felt that the auras of Suicune and Entei suddenly disappeared.

Didn't it send them to observe that human carrying Pikachu? How did they suddenly go missing?

Then, not even a moment later.

"Why has Raikou's aura disappeared too??"

The Legendary Bird could not sit still; good heavens, its guard only had three in total; Mawile could only be counted as free labor, and its personality was shy and reserved; unless pushed, that Mawile didn't want to work.

But Suicune and the others were raised by its own hand; they were true confidants!

Of course, Suicune and the others were not its private property; the Legendary Bird was not such a domineering bird; if Suicune and the others truly met a human trainer worth following.

The Phoenix King could only feel gratified and offer blessings, after all...

In the end, humans live only a hundred years; after a century, Suicune and the others would still have to return to its side, wouldn't they?

But that holds true only under normal circumstances. Now, in quick succession over a short period, Suicune and the others have suddenly all 'disappeared.' This is clearly not right.

"Who is bullying my guard!"

The Phoenix King could hold back no longer; scorching lava churned ceaselessly, and this immortal volcano erupted with a thunderous boom.

A giant bird Pokémon, its body overflowing with faint, colorful light, flew out from the volcano and headed toward a certain direction.

Damn it! They actually dared to pack up my guard directly? Isn't that shitting right on the Phoenix King's face?

I must go see what's happening. If that human forcibly captured Suicune and the others, the Phoenix King will absolutely teach them a lesson!

Doesn't it know that what it hates most are greedy, insatiable humans?

"Another one."

Mamen clicked his tongue, looking at the three shrunken Great Balls in his hand. Hmm, he hadn't guessed wrong; Raikou had indeed come to save the dogs.

This is truly the Gourd Brothers saving Grandpa.

Lyra: (○. ○)

Lyra was completely stunned. This legendary Phoenix King guard... it just felt like they weren't very smart...

"Congratulations, Mamen. You've acquired three more main forces."

Caitlin, a smile brimming in her eyes, congratulated Mamen, genuinely happy for him.

Undoubtedly, if these three legendaries are properly trained, they will surely become one of Mamen's core main forces.

"Thanks, but I don't plan to train all of them," Mamen replied with a smile.

"Eh? You don't plan to train them?" Lyra was stunned. What did that mean?

If you don't plan to train them, then why capture them in the first place?

Lyra herself had actually captured many Grass-type Pokémon, keeping most of them at the Goldenrod Gym, but that was because her status was special.

As a Gym Leader, she often had to face challengers, but many who came to challenge the gym were new trainers; she couldn't possibly use her main lineup against new challengers, could she?

So she had specifically captured some Grass-type Pokémon, and hadn't really trained or specialized them much.

But it's different; Mamen isn't a Gym Leader.

"Mainly, I wanted to see if that Pokémon would come rushing over because I captured them," Mamen said with a light chuckle.

"Personally, I'm only interested in Suicune and Entei. If I absolutely had to choose between the two, I'd probably pick Suicune."

Although its reputation was utterly ruined in "Journeys," the appearance of Haki-Sui was indeed quite to Mamen's taste.

Of course, Entei wasn't bad either; after watching Entei's movie, Mamen liked Entei very much as well.

As for Raikou... well, you can't say no to something handed right to you.

After thinking for a moment, Mamen added another sentence.

"Though it's not as good as Ripple Water, of course."

"What Pokémon is Ripple Water?"

Lyra was bewildered. Ripple Water? How had she never heard of this Pokémon?

"A rather special Pokémon. I'll let you see it if there's an opportunity later."

As an ancient form suspected to be Suicune, Ripple Water's Water/Dragon typing was truly excellent.

Moreover, Ripple Water's looks were perfectly tailored to Mamen's taste; both handsome and beautiful.

"Oh, oh." Lyra was still very curious, but she tactfully didn't press further.

Having packed up the Phoenix King guard, Mamen and the other two found a nearby patch of grass to have a meal first, naturally prepared by Lyra.

As a Young Lady embodying the traditional Yamato Nadeshiko style, although her personality also had a mischievous side, under normal circumstances, Lyra was indeed very capable.

Just as Mamen and the other two were savoring the dishes with delight, a beautiful rainbow suddenly appeared in the clear sky.

"Chirp~!"

A high-pitched cry came from far away at the horizon.

"Hmm?"

Caitlin looked up in confusion. The rainbow was beautiful, but she cared more about that cry just now. Was it her imagination?

"Mamen, a very strong figure is coming."

Mega Mewtwo Y stood up, gazing at the horizon, the deep purple flames in its eyes flickering wildly.

It could feel it! A scorching, powerful aura was approaching them at high speed! And it wasn't unfamiliar; it belonged to the same master whose aura it had felt on that Ash that day.

"It seems the cameraman does care about his subordinates after all."

Mamen was not panicked; he wiped his mouth and stood up.

But then again, the Phoenix King definitely counts as a legendary of the Lawful Good alignment. In its setting, it has always hoped for an era where humans and Pokémon can trust each other to arrive.

Precisely for this reason, it has always been searching for humans with pure and unstained hearts.

Even in the movie, its Rainbow Wing would automatically identify whether the holder's heart was pure or evil, which speaks volumes.

Seeing Mega Mewtwo Y and Mamen's movements, Caitlin and Lyra also sensed something was wrong and quickly packed up their things.

"Chirp~!"

Another long, lingering cry echoed across the sky. Above the rainbow at the horizon, a beautiful figure was flying forward with flapping wings.

"So beautiful..." Lyra's expression was somewhat dazed.

Faint Jin Guang and colorful light shimmered on its body; set against the backdrop of the rainbow, it was beautiful and moving, sacred and noble.

From a distance, its magnificence was dazzling and mesmerizing.

"Tsk~ Indeed, it looks good."

Mammon couldn't help but offer a word of praise; truth be told, from a distance, the Phoenix King truly radiated divinity and nobility, looking utterly magnificent.

But up close...

Ps: The first-order count met expectations! From now on, ten thousand words every day!
