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

On the other side, the earthquake and tsunami triggered by the land cloud had transformed into a murky wall of death, carrying broken reefs and ground-based energy.

It was crushing towards Zhang Leiyuan, Mega Charizard X, and Mega Ampharos!

The violent ground energy contained in the tsunami has a double effect on Charizard (Fire/Dragon type) and Ampharos (Electric/Dragon type)!

Charizard and Ampharos had just regained their footing after being hit by the mental shock of the Eclipse, and now they faced the might of heaven and earth.

Though startled, it remained calm and tried to take off or fight back, but its speed was ultimately a moment too slow, and it was about to be swallowed by the murky giant wave...

At this critical moment!

"Om-"

A long-necked dragon figure, as steady as a mountain, appeared silently in front of Zhang Leiyuan.

It did not roar deafeningly, nor did it burst forth with dazzling lightning; it simply stood there quietly, as if it were one with the earth.

An invisible yet incredibly strong protective force unfolded around him, forming a hemispherical light shield with flowing ancient runes, firmly protecting Zhang Leiyuan behind him.

"Boom——!!!"

A terrifying tsunami imbued with the power of the earth slammed into the seemingly thin light barrier, producing a muffled, thunderous roar!

The light shield rippled violently, yet remained as steadfast as a rock in a raging torrent!

All the impact and all the ground-based energy were completely resisted and neutralized by this protective power containing electric energy!

Zhang Leiyuan stood calmly under the solid protection of the Thunder Drum, his posture upright, not even the hem of his clothes was wet by the waves.

Just as the Thunder Drum held back the raging tsunami, and Zhang Leiyuan's gaze locked onto Kim Jae-hoon, another unexpected event occurred!

Kim Jae-hoon, who looked like a madman, pulled out an old-fashioned lens with irregular edges and fine cracks from his pocket.

The moment the lens appeared, it emitted a peculiar energy fluctuation, which even temporarily suppressed some of the anger around him, restoring a brief moment of clarity to his eyes.

But what followed was even more intense pain!

That lens was like a greedy bottomless pit, frantically draining his already nearly exhausted spiritual energy!

"Ughhhh—!" Kim Jae-hoon let out a scream that sounded inhuman, with veins bulging on his forehead and temples like wriggling earthworms, his entire face contorted in extreme pain.

This is a complete overdraft, a fleeting strength gained by burning one's life! Regardless of the outcome of this battle, his fate is sealed—his spirit will be utterly destroyed, and his body will die!

"Om-!"

The lens burst forth with a dazzling pure white light in his hand!

Immediately afterwards, two condensed white beams shot out like searchlights, precisely enveloping the battered yet still ferocious land cloud and tornado cloud in mid-air!

In the dazzling white light, the shapes of the two divine clouds began to undergo astonishing changes!

The earth cloud, in its crouching, tiger-like form, began to stretch and straighten!

Its brown fur covering its entire body faded, revealing a more human-like form.

Its body turned grayish-brown, its head was wrapped in a tuft of white mane, its arms were strong and held in front of its chest, and its posture was proud and majestic, like a god who controlled the earth.

Speed, which was originally sacrificed for maximum physical attack, has now returned!

The tornado cloud's beastly form, resembling a giant green bird, also changed, transforming back into a more slender form, much like the genie in Arabian mythology.

Its entire body turned purple, with white cloud-like wings and a tail, its arms also wrapped around its body, its eyes sharp, and its body surrounded by a light yet violent airflow.

Its speed instantly returns to its peak, and the freed arms mean it can unleash a wider variety of more flexible skill combinations!

Form transformation effect: The spirit beast form, which focuses on extreme enhancement, returns to a more balanced basic form that allows for free use of both hands to perform skills, greatly increasing overall mobility and tactical flexibility.

"That's... a fragment of the Revealing Mirror!"

Hidden beneath the surging waves, in the waterless space created by the Thorn Dragon King, Zhang Heng perfectly concealed his presence with the help of the ghostly energy of the Dragon King. He saw the mirror clearly and was shocked.

"No wonder South Korea was able to subdue those two elusive divine clouds... Obtaining this fragment is equivalent to possessing the key to attract and even control them to some extent... It might even be related to the legendary Meloetta..."

Zhang Heng suddenly understood many things, but he had no time to delve into them at the moment; his attention was completely focused on the high-grade ball he was holding tightly in his hand.

Inside was a high-grade ball he had obtained from his father, a key trump card in his plan to deliver a fatal blow to Zygarde!

He was waiting for the perfect opportunity.

Above, Kim Jae-hoon's spiritual power was being frantically extracted by the fragments of the Revealing Mirror like a burst dam.

His body even floated against gravity, but at a terrible cost—his arm holding the lens began to become transparent and ethereal, as if it would vanish like dust at any moment!

"Release...release your true nature! Earth Cloud! Tornado Cloud! Kill...kill them!" Kim Jae-hoon roared with his last ounce of willpower as he gave the order.

The two divine clouds, now freed, shone with a wild light in their eyes!

They no longer need the trainer's tedious instructions, but act entirely on the legendary Pokémon's fighting instincts and overwhelming rage!

A violent aura swept out like a storm!

"Ready to fight! Charizard! Ampharos!"

Zhang Leiyuan shouted in a deep voice, his eyes serious. He could see that Shenyun was now in even greater danger than before.

"Roar!"

Mega Charizard X roared and chose to engage in close combat with Landorus (Avatar Mode)!

With its hands freed, the Earth Cloud's arms were instantly covered with thick brown rocks, but its punches were as fast as lightning—a terrifying application of the power of the earth concentrated in its fists!

Charizard X showed no weakness, its dragon-type energy boiling over its claws, conjuring a huge phantom of a dragon claw, and fiercely met the attack!

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Boom!"

Fists and claws clashed, producing a dull, thunderous explosion! Each collision unleashed terrifying ripples of energy!

Having unleashed its true nature and relying entirely on instinct, the Land Cloud's fighting style is even wilder and more direct.

It even subtly suppressed the Mega Charizard X, which possessed the [Hard Claws] ability and had excellent skills, forcing it to retreat repeatedly!

High in the sky, Mega Ampharos, relying on electromagnetic levitation, is like a god wielding thunder. With a wave of its hands, thick bolts of 100,000 volts tear at the tornado cloud like giant golden pythons.

However, the speed of the tornado cloud after its transformation reached its limit!

Its form flickered in the air like a ghost, and with each flap of its wings, countless incredibly sharp air blades and even larger storms swept out, constantly colliding with and annihilating the raging lightning!

Several wind blades even pierced through the lightning net and cut into the Mega Ampharos, leaving clear wounds!

The battle was at a stalemate, but it was clear to everyone that the two Mega Pokémon were showing signs of fatigue when facing a legendary Pokémon that had fully unleashed its wild side, and it was only a matter of time before they were defeated!

"Oh!"

"Meow!"

Finally, Mega Charizard X was struck hard in the chest by a Rock Punch from Landorus, and flew backward with a painful roar.

Almost simultaneously, Mega Electro Dragon was also hit head-on by a sudden and violent gust of wind and fell from the sky!

The two Pokémon happened to fall onto the same broken mudflat and struggled to get up.

Just then, Arthur, who had been watching coldly from the sidelines, suddenly had a glint of cold light in his eyes and seized this excellent opportunity to finish off the enemy!

"Sound Wave Dragon! Dragon Pulse!"

The Master-level Shiny Noivern immediately changed direction, its indigo dragon-type energy rapidly gathering in its mouth, aiming at Charizard and Ampharos below!

"roll!"

Zhang Leiyuan roared, his voice booming like thunder! He didn't even need detailed instructions; the Thunder Drum, which was in sync with his will, had already raised its head!

A thin but swift current of electricity shot out from the tip of the Thunder Drum Horn and instantly disappeared into the high-altitude clouds!

"Crack—!!!"

The next instant, a naturally formed, incredibly swift bolt of lightning, as if summoned by a king, struck down from the clouds with perfect precision, directly hitting the Sonic Dragon that was charging up its power!

Swift as lightning! An electric-type priority move, fast as lightning, impossible to defend against!

"Ouch!"

The Sonic Dragon let out a painful howl, and the condensed dragon energy instantly dissipated. Its body was struck by lightning, causing it to twitch and become paralyzed, its movements abruptly halted!

However, a cruel smile of triumph crept across Arthur's lips as he softly uttered three words:

"Dark Hole".

As he spoke, on the dappled light and shadow of the mudflats where Charizard X and Ampharos had fallen, a pair of eerie, ominous vertical pupils suddenly opened without warning!

It's as if the entrance to a nightmare is quietly opening in the depths of the shadows...
