"Cheep———"
Over the skies of Ice Island.
Lightning storms, flames, and blizzards, enormous and terrifying energies intertwined ceaselessly in the sky.
The Lightning God Zapdos's body pulled at the thunder within the dark clouds, the Ice God Articuno's wings swept up blizzards, and the Fire God Moltres was enveloped in flames, then all three recklessly collided with each other.
Under the influence of the power of the Three Divine Birds, the atmosphere vibrated, and waves soared to the heavens. Luckily, Ice Island was uninhabited, and there were no signs of life nearby. Otherwise, merely the aftermath of the clash could have knocked ordinary Pokémon unconscious.
Theoretically, the battle fluctuations of Legendary Level battles should have most severely affected Asia Island, the closest landmass. However, surprisingly, it suffered no catastrophic disasters, only becoming trapped in a blizzard and losing all communications.
Asia Island Temple.
A Dumb King stared in the direction of Ice Island and muttered to itself:
"This is trouble. Without the Sea God to quell their rage... The entire Orange Archipelago will be destroyed. But it seems like a force is temporarily holding back the release of the Three Divine Birds' power...?"
As the guardian of the Asia Island Temple, Dumb King clearly understood that the Three Divine Birds were the incarnations of the natural will of the Orange Archipelago.
It was precisely because they were connected to the nature of the Orange Archipelago that they had stepped into the Legendary Realm.
However, every advantage has its disadvantage. Before they could skillfully control Natural Power, nature's chaos, in turn, affected them, which was the most fundamental essence of Asia Island's legend.
At this point, only the "Master of the Gods," the Sea God Lugia, could appease their turbulent souls.
In every region, there were specific combinations like this.
Ho-Oh in relation to the Three Sacred Beasts, Lugia to the Three Divine Birds, Rayquaza to Groudon, Kyogre, Regigigas to the Five God Pillars—these Masters of the Gods' basic duties were to appease and suppress the rampages of the subordinate Legendary Pokémon.
But compared with other Masters of the Gods, the Sea God of the Orange Archipelago had the most challenging task, as the powers of the Three Divine Birds were relatively immature and prone to the most accidents.
"A blessing or a curse, one cannot hide from fate." Dumb King sighed with its hands behind its back and chose to silently observe the unfolding events.
For now, the reason why the battle fluctuations of the Three Divine Birds hadn't exacerbated natural disasters was that Mewtwo had floated to the very top of Ice Island and, with all its might, was preventing the energy from leaking out.
"Given their current intensity in battle, I can only hold on for a few hours at most…"
"Moreover, I can only negate the aftermath of their battle. The effects of the changes in ocean currents and air currents on other regions are already irreversible."
Mewtwo's voice slowly entered Fang Yuan's heart.
"Thanks," Fang Yuan nodded slightly.
He felt that Mewtwo had changed. If it were before, Mewtwo might have already rushed to clash with the Three Divine Birds, trying a suppressive solution without regard for the consequences.
But now, Mewtwo chose not to exacerbate the situation and placed its hopes in Ho-Oh, whom Fang Yuan had just contacted, participating in a different protective manner. This made Fang Yuan have to marvel at the charm of his own personality, not expecting to have influenced Mewtwo so quickly.
"Stop being so full of yourself. When will Ho-Oh arrive?" Mewtwo's voice came again.
"I'm not sure… it should be soon." Last time, the speed at which Azure Mountain summoned Ho-Oh was very fast, but that was with the combined power of the Rainbow Rock and the Rainbow Feather…
Now, relying solely on the Rainbow Feather, it might be slower, but even if it's slower, it shouldn't be for long.
"Mewtwo, I believe in you…"
Fang Yuan reinforced Mewtwo with his 'Trust in Strength'.
"Bwooo!!!!"
Dragonite flew erratically across the sky with palpitations, stop chatting, it's still dangerous right now.
As the pilot, it was under a lot of pressure, okay? And it was key that a blizzard was raging.
"Bwoo!" "Bimi~!"
Eevee and Victini nodded their heads, yeah, the snow was so heavy, they… suddenly felt like building a snowman.
"Cough, everyone, be serious."
On Dragonite's back, Fang Yuan looked at the Three Divine Birds tangled in the distant sky and fell silent.
On his shoulders, Eevee and Victini both showed expressions of helplessness. Fighting would only make matters worse, and they had no ability to soothe them… what else could be done?
"Hey, you two, stop playing dead."
Fang Yuan shouted to the two Celebi still hiding in Subspace.
You're supposed to be Gods of The Forest, with power over space-time, think of something quick.
"Ji..."
In Subspace, the two Celebi held each other, shivering. Let's wait for Ho-Oh, their power basically couldn't help at all.
"Damn."
Fang Yuan was almost driven to smoke, so in the end, was Mewtwo the only reliable one in critical times?
He could no longer despise Mewtwo for being overly dramatic; in times of crisis, it seemed to be the only reliable one.
...
"Bastard, are you rebelling?!"
Meanwhile.
On the ground of Ice Island, the fallen sky fortress-style airship, the collector Gil Ruth reached the central control room, still desperate to restart the warship.
If the warship were restarted, he was confident that he could capture the Three Divine Birds, which had suddenly gathered to battle, in one fell swoop, and force out Lugia!
But he was directly repelled by the defense system, not given the slightest chance.
Gil Ruth was seething with frustration. Wasn't he the one with the highest control over the airship's artificial intelligence system? What was going on now?!
