A water-type trainer who specializes in dragon-type water.

"Roar--!!!"

A dragon's roar, seemingly from the Ice Age, shattered the howling blizzard!

"Zhang Heng! Watch out!"

Amin's stern shout was like an icicle piercing the air, carrying an unprecedented sense of urgency.

Almost at the same moment he spoke, the churning, dark vortex in the sky suddenly collapsed inward, as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand!

Om-!

A pale beam of light, of indescribable size and composed purely of absolute zero, tore through the dark sky like a divine spear of judgment, carrying a terrifying will to freeze time and annihilate all things.

It not only targeted Zhang Heng, who had just landed, and Xiong Shi, the master of the combo-style martial arts, but also covered the entire crumbling human defense line!

Each icicle contains absolute zero, freezing the soul, and wherever it passes, the air condenses into a solid, icy blue trail.

"Duan Guanjun! Hold on!" Amin's roar echoed through the wind and snow.

Almost at the same time he spoke, a clear, sharp cry, like the ringing of a sword, pierced the frozen plain!

"Hiss! His ...

Beneath the deathly shadow of the icy downpour, a creamy streak of light tore through the snow and wind!

It walks on the waves—no, it walks on the air!

Torrents surged from beneath its deep blue hooves, creating ripple-like water staircases in the void, each leap leaving only a fleeting afterimage on the retina.

This is Duan Champion's true ace! Kailudeo!

Zhang Heng's pupils contracted slightly as he instantly recognized the figure—a cream-colored body like the purest first snow, with sky-blue downy hair flying around the neck and back of the head, and the signature red mane blazing like fire in the gale.

But what is most striking is the single horn on its forehead, which is deep blue to almost black and segmented like a divinely forged sword!

The cold glint that flowed on that single horn—it was an expression of enlightenment!

Compared to his previous appearance at the Goose City Academy Affiliated Hospital, where he was severely injured by Kyurem and had his Gene Wedge forcibly sealed, he was completely different from the disheveled and dejected man he was in then.

"You're recovering well, Keldeo!"

A slight smile appeared on Zhang Heng's lips. The last time he saw it, its single horn was dull and lifeless, its entire body was covered in ice, and it had almost exhausted the strength to stand.

Now, it moves with lightning speed, and the single horn that was broken off on its forehead has been reborn, exuding a sharpness that can cut through the cold tide. Three colorful feathers in its mane are bursting out with brilliant light, which is the holy swordsman's determination burning!

Keldeo charged fearlessly into the icy downpour!

The "sword" on its forehead suddenly burst forth with a dazzling blue-white light!

"Keng——!"

A clear, resonant sword cry echoed across the battlefield! A condensed, almost tangible, azure sword energy shot out from the tip of the unicorn, not as a direct thrust.

Instead, it rapidly spun and expanded in front of it, instantly transforming into a huge, high-speed rotating water sword intent!

Puff puff puff puff——!

The dense, rain-like icicles crashed violently into the spinning water sword wheel!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, only the ear-piercing sound of energy annihilation!

Ice crystals containing absolute zero were shredded, neutralized, and evaporated by a sword wheel imbued with the will of "enlightenment"!

The collision of water and ice creates a vast, obscuring mist of ice crystals.

With a surge of water from its four hooves, Keldeo traced an elegant and swift arc across the ice, landing steadily beside Duan Guanjun. The sword wheel dissipated, and it raised its head to the sky, emitting a roar full of fighting spirit.

"Duan Guanjun!"

Zhang Heng's voice pierced through the icy mist, carrying both a calm understanding of the battle situation and a hint of fanatical sharpness.

"Regice has fallen asleep! No one in the front line could withstand us, and Kyurem is unable to unleash its full power."

He abruptly raised his hand, pointing to the towering, trembling, frozen throne in the distance. "Destroy this glacier! Bury it and its arrogance into the abyss!"

A glint of light flashed in Duan Guanjun's eyes! No words were needed; he and Keldeo understood each other perfectly!

"Keldio—!" Duan Guanjun's roar was like a battle cry, "Mysterious Sword - Icebreaker!"

"Hiss! His ...

Keldeo let out a deafening roar! Its single, blade-like horn on its forehead burst forth with an unprecedentedly intense blue light!

Mysterious Sword! A Fighting-type special attack move! It has a power of 85 in the game and is Keldeo's signature move.

Although it is a special attack skill, the damage it deals is physical damage.

Although Ponyta is a pure Special Attacker, with this unique move, it can easily take down all Special Defense Pokémon, even though its move pool is unusually strange…

The foal lowered its body slightly, gathering enough power to cleave mountains and rivers!

The next second, it transformed into a blue-white comet that tore through space, hurtling wildly along the frozen sea!

Target—the fragile base where glaciers meet the deep sea!

Wherever it passed, deep blue hoofprints were imprinted on the ice, and what gushed out was no longer water, but a highly compressed, condensed torrent of fighting-type energy, as if it were in liquid form!

This torrent did not merely wash away, but rather, with the will to sever everything, fiercely "cleaved" into the very foundation of the glacier!

Rumble, rumble—! The glacier let out a dying cry!

A massive, terrifying crack, shimmering with turbulent energy, rapidly spread upwards from the ice surface along the trajectory of Keldeo's charge, accompanied by a deafening roar!

Wherever the cracks pass, the permafrost crumbles and collapses like a fragile biscuit!

This sword strike ignited the flames of humanity's counterattack!

The remaining trainers from the China League roared their commands, their shouts mingling with the roars of the Pokémon!

Flames, lightning, rocks, beams of energy... all the forces capable of shaking the earth and shattering ice poured forth like a torrent bursting its banks onto the ever-expanding glacial fissure!

"Do not--!!!"

From within the swirling dark clouds came Kyurem's roar, a mixture of shock and rage, seemingly emanating from the deepest hell!

It sensed it! It sensed that the very foundation upon which it was forcibly maintaining the glacier and drawing power was collapsing at an alarming rate!

For the first time, that roar carried a hint of surprise and disbelief at the fact that even ants could shake one's divine throne!

The glacier is groaning, it is disintegrating!

Humanity's fighting spirit and Pokémon's roars transformed into a funeral dirge for the gods!
