Pokemon: Spiritual Master-Chapter 597: This Is How We League Trainers Do Things

"Mimi!!"

Victini possesses the ability to transfer energy to other Pokémon, somewhat similar to Aura but different. This is a characteristic unique to the Victini species.

Combined with Victini's "infinite energy," it's fair to say that Victini is one of the top-tier support Pokémon in the entire Pokémon world.

Moreover, Reshiram is also a Fire-type legendary Pokémon, making Victini's assistance even more effective.

As Victini injected energy into Reshiram's tail thruster, it seemed to receive an enormous boost, instantly entering an "overclocked" state.

In this state, Reshiram would absolutely not fear even Dark Kyurem!

"Mimi!!"

The V-shaped mark on Victini's forehead lit up with a scorching red aura, continuously injecting energy into Reshiram's thruster.

"Roar!!"

Reshiram flapped its snow-white wings, sending rolling waves of heat sweeping toward the Forces of Nature.

The blue flames nearly obscured the sky.

"Is this the power of the Dragon of Truth, Reshiram?" Ghetsis's eyes were filled with greed.

Such a Pokémon was exactly what he had dreamed of!

What bothered him was that Zekrom, Reshiram's equal, had chosen to follow his adopted son...

"Landorus, block it!" Ghetsis brandished his staff.

"Tornadus, Thundurus, take care of that human!"

The target was Johan on Reshiram's back!

"Land!!!"

With Landorus's power alone, it couldn't resist Reshiram, especially a Reshiram empowered by Victini.

But.

Landorus could borrow power from the Dragon Vein!

It's worth noting that during the Dragon Vein's upheaval in the People of the Earth's homeland a thousand years ago, even Reshiram and Zekrom together couldn't suppress it—only the Sword of the Earth could.

Although the Dragon Vein wasn't fully awakened now, with its power, Landorus could barely hold on, resisting Reshiram's attack for a moment.

This time might be a minute, or perhaps just a few dozen seconds.

But in Ghetsis's view... it was enough!

As long as he could eliminate Teacher Johan and make Reshiram "masterless" again, with Colress's device, perhaps he could forcibly control Reshiram!

Even if he lost all three Forces of Nature, as long as he could control Reshiram, it would be worth it in Ghetsis's opinion.

"Thund!!!"

"Torn!!!"

Thundurus and Tornadus struggled mightily but still attacked toward Johan.

Seeing this, Johan raised an eyebrow.

Well, attacking the trainer directly, are we?

Then come and try!

"Johan!!"

Behind him, Cynthia, riding on Garchomp, saw this scene and immediately cried out.

She took out her Mega Stone without the slightest hesitation.

"Garchomp, Mega Evolution!"

In an instant, Garchomp completed its Mega Evolution, donning a dragon-like aura.

Garchomp could sense the urgency and concern in Cynthia's heart, so it suddenly accelerated.

"It's too late!" A ferocious smile appeared on Ghetsis's face.

Even if you're Cynthia, you can't instantly appear at Teacher Johan's side.

But at that moment.

A smile appeared on Johan's face as he held onto Victini and Meloetta.

Hum——

A black shadow appeared from behind Johan, and within the swaying shadows, a figure with cold eyes looked at the approaching Thundurus and Tornadus.

"You're a bit late, Darkrai."

Appearing behind Johan was none other than the Nightmare Pokémon, Darkrai!

"Hmph! You don't understand, protagonists always make their entrance last!"

Darkrai stretched out its claws, forming a huge black sphere in its hands. Under the strong wind, the black mist around its body floated like flowing clouds, but its gaze became increasingly serious.

"I'll leave them to you."

Johan flipped over, jumping down from Reshiram's back.

Darkrai nodded slightly, looking toward Thundurus and Tornadus.

Johan's voice came from his descent.

"Extra dinner for you tonight!"

"Ohhhhh!!!! Look at me! You punks!!" Darkrai charged toward Thundurus and Tornadus.

"Woo——"

With a flash of red light, Dragonite's voice was heard as Johan rode on Dragonite, heading straight for the hilltop below.

He pressed down his hat brim, narrowing his eyes.

So you attack trainers directly, huh?

"Johan, are you okay?" Mega Garchomp and Cynthia finally arrived at his side.

Johan shook his head, "I'm fine."

"But they won't be!"

Below, Ghetsis and Colress froze.

They felt Johan's gaze and Cynthia's cold stare.

"We're... we're done for..." Colress's forehead beaded with sweat.

"Garchomp, Dragon Dive!"

"Dragonite, Dragon Dive!"

"Roar——!!!" Mega Garchomp roared.

"Woo!!!"

Dragonite's aura was no less imposing.

The two giant dragons descended from above, charging straight at the hilltop.

Boom!!!

The ground shook violently, accompanied by terrified shouts from the Team Plasma members.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

From the ruins, Ghetsis stood up shakily with the help of his Hydreigon.

Colress behind him now appeared quite disheveled, covered in dust.

A defensive "wall" formed by Klink had mostly lost the ability to battle after the impact.

"So this is the strength of the champion and runner-up of the 'Youth Master World Championship'..." Colress muttered.

Suddenly.

Ghetsis and Colress froze again.

They turned with difficulty to see Johan and Cynthia slowly approaching, with Dragonite and Mega Garchomp beside them.

That aura...

Ghetsis gritted his teeth, displaying the true aura of Team Plasma's leader, with several Poké Balls in his hand.

"If that's the case, let's have a battle! I believe as trainers, you should—"

Bang!!!

Before he could finish.

A black shadow floated out from behind Ghetsis, and a black fist precisely struck him in the stomach.

"Ugh!!!"

Ghetsis curled up like a shrimp, his eyes suddenly widening, his mouth gaping as if something was about to come out.

It was clearly Johan's Gengar.

One punch was enough to make Ghetsis lose his ability to battle.

Johan chuckled, looking down at Ghetsis kneeling on the ground, and waved his hand at him.

"Sure, let's battle."

As Ghetsis's Hydreigon was about to move, it froze in place.

Because Mega Garchomp and Dragonite were holding its necks, one on each side.

"Garrr?"

"Woo?"

Hydreigon immediately had a dejected expression.

This... is not a fair fight...

Seeing Ghetsis still kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath, his eyes bulging, looking like he couldn't catch his breath, Johan pursed his lips.

"I gave you a chance, but you're useless."

Ghetsis: "..."

After catching his breath for a while, Ghetsis finally recovered somewhat, raising his head with difficulty to look at Johan and Cynthia.

"You... you as League trainers, actually... actually..."

"What?" Johan crouched down, looking at him at eye level, tilting his head and asking, "Don't you know that in League competitions, there are rules for 'no-holds-barred battles'?"

"I—" Ghetsis opened and closed his mouth.

Johan stood up, shrugging, "Gengar, beat him up! If he faints, scare him awake, then beat him again. Don't let him faint or fall asleep."

"Ka-kaah~~"

Gengar cracked its knuckles with a sinister smile.

Hum——

A Poké Ball at Cynthia's waist opened on its own, and Cradily voluntarily ran out.

"Spahh!"

Seeing this, Johan raised an eyebrow, "Little Cradily, you want to join too? Then go ahead."

"Spahh! Spahh!"

Cradily immediately displayed the same smile as Gengar.

"You! Are you really a League trainer?"

Ghetsis staggered backward, looking at Johan with fear.

"I'm sorry, this is how we League trainers do things."

"Ka-kaah!"

Gengar nodded in agreement.

Then, Johan looked at Cynthia and asked:

"Right?"

Cynthia's face was cold at the moment—she still remembered how Ghetsis had ordered Thundurus and Tornadus to attack Johan.

So she nodded and said to Cradily: "No limits this time."

"Spahh——"

With the approval of both "masters," Cradily's smile became even more unrestrained.

"No! No! Don't come over! Ah——"

Listening to Ghetsis's miserable cries, Colress's forehead was covered in sweat.

When he noticed Johan's gaze upon him, he instinctively took two steps back, swallowed, and forced a smile.

"Teacher Johan, you... you know, I'm just a scientist, following orders..."

Johan nodded, his expression calm:

"Of course."

But the calmer he was, the more nervous Colress became.

If not for the "warning example" of Ghetsis, as a mad scientist, he wouldn't have lost composure like this, but with Ghetsis's screams echoing in his ears, he really...

Colress opened and closed his mouth, his mind racing.

Suddenly, as if grasping at a lifeline, he hurriedly shouted:

"I! I know something! Something very important!"

"Oh?"

"Teacher Johan, I've always wanted to be a good person. Please give me a chance to reform!" Colress pleaded.

Reform?

In Johan's impression, in the original story, Colress remained active in the Alola region even after his arrest.

His creations, the "N-Solarizer" and the "N-Lunarizer," allowed Necrozma to combine with Solgaleo or Lunala, respectively.

It could be said that he had taken the technology of [Fusion] to its limits.

But.

Colress's behavior of treating Pokémon as materials and tools to control arbitrarily—the League might tolerate it out of appreciation for talent, but Johan couldn't.

So...

"Sorry, I'm a police officer."

As he spoke, Johan said to Gengar, who hadn't yet had a chance to act: "Gengar, try out your nightmare..."

"Wait! Wait!"

Colress was covered in cold sweat, "I really, really! know something extremely important. Teacher Johan, please, please hand me over to the League!"

This is too terrifying!

If he had known Teacher Johan's methods were so extreme, even more illegal than their own Team Plasma's illegal methods, he would never have provoked Teacher Johan!

This is even more evil than evil organizations.

"I'll give you one chance. Speak!" Johan narrowed his eyes.

If Colress said anything else, he'd never wake up from this sleep.

Colress seemed to understand Johan's thoughts and hurriedly said:

"Ghetsis, Ghetsis has lured N and Zekrom to Giant Chasm!"

Nearby, when Ghetsis heard this, his eyes widened, and as he opened his mouth to curse, Cradily seized the opportunity, grabbing something and stuffing it into Ghetsis's mouth.

"Mmm mmm mmm——"

"Spahh~~"

The more you resist, the more excited I get~~

Hmm?

Hearing Colress's words, Johan's expression immediately became serious.

No wonder.

No wonder when he had tried to contact N earlier as a precaution, he couldn't reach him. He had thought N was dealing with something.

Ghetsis had used N's desire to take over Team Plasma, luring him to Giant Chasm to confront Zekrom with Kyurem?

No.

If it were just that, Zekrom and Kyurem wouldn't necessarily fight. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

So...

Johan stared at Colress, asking in a deep voice:

"You left something there?"

Colress gave an awkward smile.

"As... as expected of Teacher Johan."

To be honest, if they weren't on opposing sides, Colress felt he and Teacher Johan could definitely be friends.

This time, Colress didn't hold back and directly said:

"It's the 'Colress Machine No. 1101.' It amplifies the negative emotions in Kyurem's heart as power, and if the experiment succeeds, Kyurem might..."

"Absorb?" Johan completed before he could finish.

"Indeed, Teacher Johan, you indeed know!" Colress showed an almost perverted excitement.

"Absorb?" Cynthia expressed confusion at this.

Johan didn't answer Cynthia but frowned, "But how could you possibly—"

How could Colress have mastered the secret of [Fusion] without obtaining the [DNA Splicers]?

"It's the Aether Foundation. They gave me a special black crystal with some secrets of [Fusion]," Colress said.

Aether Foundation?

Special black crystal?

Johan's eyes widened slightly.

Necrozma's crystal?!

Wow!

Johan couldn't help but admire Colress's abilities—he would indeed create the "N-Solarizer" and "N-Lunarizer" in the future.

But he hadn't expected that Colress could reverse-engineer a device to fuse Kyurem and Zekrom based on Necrozma's characteristics!

"That's not right." Johan shook his head, "If that's the case, you and Ghetsis shouldn't be here—Kyurem and Zekrom should be your targets."

Colress hadn't told the whole truth!

"Because... I probably can't control it."

Colress had completely given up now and said directly:

"Compared to an uncontrollable target, Reshiram and the Forces of Nature are relatively much simpler."

"What's your probability of success?"

Colress licked his lips, the madness returning to his face.

"Twenty percent!"

A twenty percent chance and he dared to mess around!

Bang!! Bang!!

At this moment, Thundurus and Tornadus crashed down from the sky, embedded deeply into the mountainside.

Then Landorus, despite being empowered by the Dragon Vein, ultimately couldn't withstand Reshiram and was thrown beside Thundurus and Tornadus, fainting.

"What's wrong?" Darkrai noticed Johan's expression, suddenly feeling a bad premonition.

This guy... hasn't gotten into trouble again, has he?

Johan pursed his lips.

"We need to call for backup."
