HxH : Pokemon Master-Chapter 392: Sabrina’s Terrifying Talent!

The second Soul Ability—Enhancement.

He could enhance himself or his Nen beasts.

The enhancement could target specific aspects or comprehensively improve all aspects simultaneously.

However, the total amount was limited. The limitation lay in soul energy and strength.

Soul strength was like a wooden barrel that could hold a certain amount of water.

The water inside represented soul energy.

Using Soul Abilities required consuming soul energy. Similar to using Aura Abilities, which required consuming Aura.

However, the soul is even more fragile; once energy consumption exceeds half, it becomes damaged.

Symptoms such as dizziness and physical discomfort appear. Since this is a reaction affecting the soul, no matter how strong the body is, this reaction will occur.

The only way to avoid this reaction is to continuously improve soul strength.

Akira believes that the key to breaking through SS+ and reaching SSS- still lies in soul strength.

Perhaps when both soul strength and physical strength reach a certain level, he will be able to achieve SSS-!

Once he reaches SSS-, he will truly become a top-tier combatant!

Even most Legendary Pokémon would be no match for him.

Only some First-Class Gods and more powerful beings could potentially defeat him in a one-on-one battle.

[Enhancement] is also divided into temporary enhancement and permanent enhancement.

Temporary enhancement has a time limit; once the time is up, the effect disappears. But the effect is significant and can be used at critical moments.

Currently, he can instantly boost his S-rank strength to SS-rank.

With more practice and refinement over time, he could achieve even greater levels.

Permanent enhancement may not seem as impressive, but it accumulates gradually over the long term.

Perhaps with this ability, he could slowly grind his way to S-rank!

At the same time, [Enhancement] can be applied to Aura Ability!

In other words, he can enhance his own or others’ Aura Ability.

It might even yield better results.

More importantly—this isn’t the entirety of his Soul Ability.

After awakening his second Soul Ability, he suddenly sensed that there were still abilities deep within him yet to awaken. Does he have three Soul Abilities?

After pondering for a moment, Akira spoke: "Do you know about Soul Ability?"

Ho-Oh was taken aback, thought for a while, and then replied: "I do. Though the terminology is different. What you call Soul Ability should be similar to our Legendary Pokémon’s Authority Ability. The Life Ability I possess is equivalent to that Soul Ability. But the details differ."

Akira understood.

This also explains why Soul Ability only awakens at SS+.

As you can see, only Legendary Pokémon, and even then only some powerful ones, possess Authority Ability.

Only beings of their caliber have it.

"How many Soul Abilities can an individual possess at most?"

"Two," Ho-Oh answered without hesitation.

It knows the world’s Legendary Pokémon inside out. It’s well aware that an individual can have at most two Soul Abilities.

In fact, most Legendary Pokémon only have one ability. What may appear as multiple abilities are actually branches of one major ability.

For example, Groudon, the Continent Pokémon, has the authority to create land.

It can easily produce massive pillars of magma and, with just a few steps, to create a vast expanse of land.

This is its major ability.

Generating magma, producing flames... these effects are branches within its major ability. Not its primary capability, but it can indeed accomplish them.

Even when using fire, the power it unleashes can far surpass that of fire-type legendary beasts like Moltres.

This is because its strength is too immense.

Even though fire isn’t its main ability, it can exceed other legendary beasts for whom fire is their primary capability.

Scattered observations reveal at most two abilities. No more than that. Akira lifted his gaze, his eyes steady.

"But what if I told you I possess three, or even more Soul Abilities?"

Ho-Oh’s pupils contracted, its body trembling slightly.

"That’s impossible! How can a single individual possess so many abilities? Unless... You are Arceus."

Ho-Oh stared intently at Akira, uttering words that even it found absurd.

How could Akira be Arceus? If he were, it would have sensed it long ago.

Moreover... Arceus’s personality isn’t like this.

Akira gently shook his head, his tone calm.

"Unfortunately, I am not Arceus. But in the future, it’s not impossible to create an Arceus."

Currently, he sees two paths to create Arceus.

The first method: Fulfill the conditions previously indicated by the Aura Ability.

[Power of Unown]: Can materialize things envisioned in the mind.

The more Unown gathered, the greater the power that can be unleashed. Unown nurtured in any location enable the trainer to naturally understand the local culture and comprehend languages and scripts without formal teaching.

When all forms of Unown are collected, the God of Creation will descend.

Below, there is a progress bar resembling a nurturing gauge, clearly divided into twenty-eight small segments. The first two segments have already been lit. The God of Creation—this is explicitly stated.

At least, Akira can only think of one.

The Creator God—Arceus.

Currently, he has only nurtured two types of Unown, still short of many. He has also acquired several Unown in the Pokémon world through Team Rocket’s channels. Unfortunately, these don’t count. Perhaps only those nurtured through his own Aura Ability are valid.

Or maybe the conditions must be met in the Hunter world to count. In a certain sense, Arceus of this world is the Arceus of the Hunter World.

The second method: Find ways to approach locations or objects associated with Arceus in the Pokémon world. For instance, the various elemental plates...

There might be a chance to directly nurture Arceus, though the probability is low.

These are two methods to nurture Arceus, but there’s an even simpler and more direct approach.

Simply defeat Arceus of the Pokémon world into submission.

That way, he would effectively possess Arceus.

Ho-Oh was left speechless.

It wanted to say something, but after opening its beak, no words came out.

However... Could any individual other than Arceus truly possess so many Soul Abilities?

...

Team Rocket Headquarters.

In a brightly lit underground room, all the high-ranking executives stood uniformly aligned. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Their formation followed the previous hierarchy of the Three Executives, Four Generals, and so on. From front to back, they were:

Three Executives—Koga, Lt. Surge, Sabrina.

Three Admins—Charon, Sird, Oca.

Four Generals—Apollo, Ariana, Lance, Lambda.

These ten individuals constituted Team Rocket’s most elite team.

And now, they had all undergone extremely professional guidance.

They had already become Aura Users!

Even though they had only been exposed to Nen for a short time, they had already mastered the basic Four Major Principles: Ten, Ren, Zetsu, Hatsu.

Moreover, they had developed their own unique Aura Abilities!

According to Biscuit’s words, each of these ten individuals would be considered a rare gem, one in ten million, if placed in the Hunter World.

They were top-tier raw stones, now shining brightly as they were polished.

Based on the teachings of the Hunter squad, it appeared that humans in the Pokémon world indeed had generally higher innate talent than those in the Hunter World.

Their physical constitutions were surprisingly robust, significantly superior. Perhaps this was why they could withstand some Pokémon attacks in their daily lives.

The innate talent of humans in the Pokémon world, when placed in the Hunter World, would roughly fall between one in ten and one in a hundred.

Among them, Sabrina stood out the most

She was the most formidable of the ten.

Because she already possessed terrifying supernatural abilities far beyond ordinary people.

This made her talent even more exaggerated.

Across the vast six continents of the Hunter World, her talent was among the very best.

Netero had personally observed her and gave an honest evaluation: far surpassing his own.

Akira believed that, aside from himself, there was only one person in the six continents whose talent was comparable to Sabrina’s.
