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

The arrival of Giratina cast a shadow of death over the entire shattered battlefield of the icy sea.

The chilling pressure emanating from the antimatter world caused the raging energy turbulence to momentarily halt.

Except for Kyurem's yellow vertical pupils, which burned with a berserk will.

All other living beings—humans, Pokémon, and even the two Articuno that had just completed their sneak attack—felt an indescribable sense of suffocation and fear deep in their souls.

However, to everyone's surprise, Kyurem showed no sign of panic in the face of this sudden Giratina.

Its massive body hovered beneath the shattered ice dome, and deep within its pure yellow pupils, the rage remained, yet a strange... cunning glint flashed within.

It was as if a malevolent dragon had foreseen this scene, and perhaps... was waiting for something.

At this moment of deathly silence, a strange ripple appeared in the space around Zhang Heng.

Doronchi's translucent body quietly emerged, its small eyes filled with unprecedented excitement and fervor as it stared intently at the platinum figure in the crack—its god!

Zhang Heng's knuckles turned white from gripping the "Crystal of Ideals" too tightly.

Seeing Giratina descend and feeling its destructive will, purely for the purpose of "restoring order," the solemnity in his heart instantly overwhelmed his anger.

He had no doubt that if Giratina decided that the “destabilizing factors” (including Keldeo, Snowplow, Genesect, and even his Wave and Martial Arts Bear Masters) who over-released their divine power into the real world and caused spatial collapse needed to be eliminated, it would be a true catastrophe!

Kyurem might be able to put up a fight, but the legendary companions of the Chinese side have absolutely no chance of surviving an attack from a first-tier god!

His hand, which was tightly gripping the crystal, slowly drooped due to the immense gravity and uncertainty surrounding it; this was his last trump card.

Using the Crystal of Ideals to summon Zekrom might be able to fight against one of the others, but what about two Tier 1 gods waging war in such a fragile space?

The consequences would be unimaginable; it could wipe out everyone, along with the entire sea area, in an instant.

The battlefield fell into an eerie and dangerous calm.

The energy storm subsided temporarily, leaving only the churning of purplish-black mist at the edge of the spatial rift and Giratina's silent, judgmental gaze.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for Giratina's next move—would it attack Kyurem directly? Or... indiscriminately eliminate them?

"This atmosphere is off! We have to make this situation even more chaotic!"

Kassavan's heart was pounding. He sensed that Giratina's attention seemed to be focused more on Kyurem, which didn't match his expectation of "indiscriminate destruction."

An absolutely insane thought began to form in his mind: Attack Giratina! Enrage it! Make it go completely berserk!

His lips moved slightly, the command about to be uttered, the target being his Articuno! Instruct Articuno to attack and disrupt normalcy.

"Articuno! Attack Martial Arts..."

However, Kyurem was faster and more ruthless than him!

Just as Casavan's ordinary Articuno hovered in mid-air, before receiving any instructions—

"Pfft!!!"

A muffled thud, the sound of flesh being pierced by a cold, sharp weapon, shattered the brief silence!

Right below Articuno's flight, the thick, frozen ice suddenly burst open without warning!

A gigantic ice spear, formed purely from the law of absolute zero, as thick as an ancient tree, with its tip gleaming with a deadly, eerie blue light, thrust out from below like a venomous dragon that had been dormant for ten thousand years, at a speed beyond the reach of the eye!

Precise! Ruthless! Merciless!

The ice spear pierced through Articuno's relatively soft abdomen without any resistance, emerging from its spine!

Before the scalding blood of the divine bird could even gush out, the moment it came into contact with the eerie blue light at the tip of the spear, the entire body of Articuno, along with the bird, was instantly frozen by the terrifying extreme cold!

The ice spread wildly from the point of penetration at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed the legendary bird, along with its expression frozen in astonishment and pain, into a lifelike, giant ice sculpture!

The light in its eyes quickly dimmed, and its life force rapidly drained away as if being sucked away by the ice spear!

"Do not--!!!"

Casavan let out a heart-wrenching, desperate, and incredulous scream!

The ecstasy and calculation on his face were instantly replaced by extreme pain and bewilderment. He staggered backward, as if the ice spear had pierced his heart as well.

His greatest reliance for revenge, one of the symbols of his Thousand Islands, was thus easily and cruelly ended before his very eyes!

Lisvale's pupils contracted sharply, his face drained of color, and a chill ran from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head, even more intense than the cold wind of Kyurem!

The Articuno also let out a terrified cry and instinctively moved away from the blood-stained ice spear.

On the Chinese side, apart from Duan Suyue, whose eyes remained solemn, and Du Ling Shuang, whose brows were furrowed, everyone else was too shocked to speak by the sudden bloody scene.

Kyurem's ruthlessness and power once again shattered their understanding of the world.

Giratina's deep purple vertical pupils flickered slightly, seemingly surprised by Kyurem's sudden attack on its "ally," but more so by the extreme ice energy.

The enormous "shadow orb" condensed in its mouth, formed from the compressed energy of countless wailing souls from the Reverse World, is poised to strike, its target being Kyurem!

However, Kyurem's target was not Giratina himself at all!

Its cunning yellow pupils were locked onto the enormous spatial rift in the sky, and the massive figure of Giratina within it!

"Roar—Awooo!!!"

Kyurem roared once more, and once again, it unleashed its signature move—Frozen World!

But this time, the target of the Frozen World is not the trainers from China, but rather—the enormous rift connecting reality and the Distortion World! And Giratina behind the rift!

Meanwhile, the still-shattered remains of Regice in the sky, and Articuno, pierced by ice spears and rapidly losing its life force, had its ice-type energy forcibly taken over by Kyurem's power!

“Crack! Crack! Crack—!”

Along with Regice's enormous, twisted body, pieced together from countless ice crystals and debris, high in the sky, it began to violently and uncontrollably disintegrate!

The ancient ice that made up its body and the dark blue crystals that contained divine powers were stripped and shattered as if by an invisible force!

The ice sculpture formed by Articuno also showed spiderweb-like cracks on its surface, and the surging ice-type energy contained inside, belonging to the champion-level ice-type legendary Pokémon, was being forcibly extracted!

Two vast streams of ice-type energy—one originating from the remnants of the Ice God Pillar that were forcibly awakened, and the other from the life of the dying Champion-level Ice-type Divine Bird—flowed wildly into Kyurem's "Frozen World" like rivers flowing into the sea!

"Oh no! It wants to use these two Ice-type legendary Pokémon as sacrifices, injecting their primordial Ice-type energy into the entrance to the Reverse World, forcibly freezing and sealing that passage! Trapping Giratina inside!"

Du Ling Shuang exclaimed in shock. As the Ice-type champion, she was most sensitive to the flow of Ice-type energy! She could clearly "see" the two torrents of sacrificial energy being guided by Kyurem's will, transforming into the purest "Sealed Cold"!

Giratina finally understood Kyurem's intentions!

An unprecedented rage ignited in its pair of dark purple vertical pupils! The enormous "shadow ball" in its mouth was launched instantly!

"Hey~"

The inky purple sphere of destructive energy, carrying with it ghostly energy formed from the endless resentment and wails of the reversed world.

It tore through space and hurtled straight towards Kyurem and the rift that was being frozen!

However, it was too late!

Or rather, Kyurem's choice of timing and the power of the sacrifice were too targeted!

The frigid torrents of the frozen world, which are the fusion of two powerful legendary ice-type origins and empowered by the power of Kyurem, have already reached the edge of the rift!

This cold current not only contains the absolute low temperature of frozen matter, but also carries a trace of the divine power of "eternal ice" contained in the remains of Regice.

The dark purple shadow sphere collided with the solid ice that had just formed at the crack, composed of the ultimate ice-type primal energy!

There was no earth-shattering explosion!

There was only one deep, chilling "plop" sound, as if it came from the abyss!

The Ghost-type destructive energy, powerful enough to annihilate souls, collided with the extreme cold storm formed by the fusion of Kyurem's power, the remains of Regirock, and Articuno's life essence, and it was like a pebble thrown into an endless abyss!

The terrifyingly low temperature instantly froze the raging energy on the surface of the Shadow Orb, and the wailing of the wronged souls contained within it was also suppressed and frozen by this absolute cold!

The Shadow Orb's speed visibly slowed down, and its surface was covered with a thick layer of dark blue ice crystals, which actually "frozen" and solidified the destructive energy it contained!

Not only did it fail to break through, but it was also swept back by that extremely cold torrent and "blown" back to the other side of the reversed world by the cold wind!

Just as the Shadow Ball was frozen and pushed back, Kyurem's ultimate move was already complete!

Within its enormous mouth, a surge of Normal-type energy, so powerful it distorted space, converged wildly and compressed into a blindingly bright orange-yellow energy beam—the Destruction Beam!

"Whoosh—Boom—!!!"

A beam of orange-yellow light, as large as a mountain, pierced through the crack that had been temporarily stabilized by the torrent of the frozen world with unparalleled precision, with the force to tear everything apart!

Its target was not Giratina itself, but the two sacrificed Ice-type Divine Beasts inside the rift!

The remains of Regice after its disintegration, and the frozen ice sculpture of Articuno!

"Crack! Boom—!!!"

The destructive energy of the Death Ray, capable of annihilating everything, struck its target without hindrance!

Regice's core fragments vanished into nothingness in an instant!

Articuno's life ice sculpture, along with the frozen Shadow Orb fragments within it, shattered violently under the impact powerful enough to shatter stars!

This was the last straw that broke the camel's back! And the spark that ignited the powder keg!

The Hyper Beam detonated the energy of two powerful Ice-type Legendary Pokémon (one with a divine attribute, and the other a Champion-level peak Pokémon)!!

A massive explosion of pure, violent ice energy, far exceeding any previous collision, erupted in the gap between the Reverse World and the Real World, right before Giratina!

"hold head high--!!!!!!"

Giratina let out a roar of extreme rage! In the real world, this roar only turned into a silent shockwave, causing fragments of space to fall in a flurry!

Its massive platinum-gold body was struck hard by the terrifying explosion that was so close at hand and completely countered by the element (ice-resistant dragon)!

The six dark golden wings in their origin form trembled violently amidst the raging ice-attribute energy turbulence, and were blasted backward repeatedly!

Even more deadly is that the extreme cold generated by the explosion, which contained the divine power of "Eternal Ice," did not dissipate. Instead, like a leech, it mixed with the torrent of the previous "Frozen World" and spread wildly, freezing and sealing the huge spatial rift!

"Sizzle...crack..."

A series of chilling, freezing sounds rang out. The rift between the real world and the inverted world was being covered at a visible speed by an incredibly thick "ice wall"—a wall that shimmered with a ghostly blue and platinum light, and seemed to contain countless frozen ice crystals!

The ice wall thickened rapidly, eventually completely sealing the rift connecting the two worlds.

In the real world, the only way to see the bizarre, upside-down scenes in the inverted world is through the thick, translucent ice wall that shimmers with a strange light.

And behind the ice wall, there was that platinum-gold dragon shadow, twisted with rage and radiating overwhelming killing intent!

Giratina relentlessly assaulted the seal behind the ice wall! Its silent roar seemed to pierce the soul, and its massive dragon claws slammed into the inner side of the ice wall, each strike causing the thick ice wall to tremble violently. However, the ice wall formed by the two ice-type legendary beasts was not so easily broken.

The azure and platinum light flickered rapidly, but the ice wall in the void remained completely still!

Its vertical pupils, burning with eerie purple flames, were fixed on the Kyurem outside the ice wall, and the rage within them was enough to terrify any living being!

Although the sound was blocked, the silent impact and the terrifying figure struggling wildly behind the ice wall, filled with endless hatred, were more visually impactful than any roar, bringing a suffocating fear that came from the depths of the soul!

Kyurem hovered before the frozen rift, its icy blue vertical pupils coldly watching Giratina's rage behind the ice wall. The cunning in its pure yellow pupils had faded, leaving only pure coldness.

It succeeded, temporarily sealing away the meddlesome fellow at the cost of the bodies and energy of two powerful ice-type legendaries.

"Dong~dongdong~"

Each of Giratina's impacts caused the ice wall to shake violently.

The barrier between the real world and the reversed world is forcibly sealed by this ice wall, which is as thin as a cicada's wing and looks extremely fragile, but it can still withstand the attack for a period of time.

On the broken ice sea, the cold wind howled, swirling ice shards.

The aftershocks of the war of gods have subsided for the time being, leaving behind a desolate battlefield, a critically wounded comrade, a champion in despair, a lingering observer, and... an ancient ice dragon that has temporarily relieved its worries but has also consumed a great deal of energy.

Beneath the fragile balance lies a deeper crisis. All eyes are focused on the trembling ice wall and the enormous dragon shadow emanating endless chill before it.

Giratina was thus isolated from the Overworld...

Watching everything unfold in an instant, Zhang Heng muttered to himself, "Just as Du Guanjun said, it's better to improve our own strength to the point where we can handle any crisis than to hope for reinforcements."
