Arceus is indeed in a tough spot right now. For some reason, this flower in front of him doesn't seem particularly powerful, but it's causing Arceus a lot of trouble.
For example, if he got the light ring around the flower, not to mention his lightsaber, even if he used that sword array light cannon, it wouldn't be of much use. And the black light continuously released by this flower, once it brushed against Arceus's shield, Arceus's shield would immediately become as brittle as paper, and could be pierced with almost a slight poke.
Arceus can only use teleportation to constantly dodge and use various skills to wear down the Undersea Flower in front of him.
However, he also knows that such attacks can't even wear down the opponent.
Damn it, is there really something even stranger than Rope in this world?
Arceus could no longer remain calm and cursed inwardly.
If Halley knew what Arceus was thinking, he would surely laugh heartily. After all, the current situation was primarily due to Arceus and Rope's lack of understanding of the Undersea Flower.
However, there was indeed no opportunity to gain such understanding.
The Undersea Flower does have weaknesses. Though these weaknesses aren't easy to exploit, with Rope and Arceus' current strength, breaking through this fake Undersea Flower shouldn't be too difficult.
After all, their own strength isn't lacking.
If the Undersea Flower were truly that difficult to deal with, Halley wouldn't have gone to the Underworld Sea to take a gamble on it back then.
Rope was momentarily undecided. Looking up information now would clearly be disrespectful to Halley, who was attacking him with full force.
However, seeing Arceus steadily retreating, Rope could only hurry to find a way to resolve the situation.
After all, no matter what, he couldn't let Arceus lose like this.
"Hold on for a moment."
Rope spoke calmly. Then the flames on his body flared up threefold, and he hurled the sword in his hand toward Halley, who was not far away.
Like a flaming meteor, it was beautiful yet highly destructive.
Halley once again condensed her ribbon into a shield, managing to block the attack with some effort.
Though it was challenging, it wasn't impossible to withstand. Halley even had enough energy left to condense a particularly dense black mist and push it toward Rope.
Rope summoned a shield made of flames in front of him and blocked the black mist.
The two engaged in an intense battle, while Halley continued to remotely supply energy to the black mist.
Rope didn't pay much attention to it, after all, with its burning energy properties, his flames could sustain themselves for a short time, and that short time was enough for Rope to maneuver.
Rope pulled out an ancient-looking bell from his storage space, which he hadn't used in a long time.
No matter how he shook it, the bell did not ring, as there was nothing inside it.
It looked like an ordinary bell, with no mysterious patterns on it, made of ordinary copper, showing no special power, and revealing no other functions. It was just an ordinary bell, with nothing unusual about it except that it did not ring.
However, when Rope took a flame from his heart and placed it inside the bell as its contents, the bell suddenly began to move on its own and emitted a crisp sound.
Though the sound was faint, it seemed to resonate in everyone's hearts.
When Arceus heard the bell's sound, the entire alpaca froze for a moment, then the flames on its body suddenly intensified.
At the same time, seven Pokémon suddenly appeared around Rope.
Entei, Arcanine, Infernape, Gengar, Charizard, Mewtwo, Eternatus.
Each of them wore majestic and imposing flame armor, and even their auras were remarkably similar...
Halley naturally noticed this unusual phenomenon. Halley instantly realized what it was.
"Impossible!"
Halley felt his composure slipping away.
Rope also felt a bit regretful; this item was originally intended for use at the wedding… but now it had been forced out by Halley.
[Name: Adventure Bell (Legend)
Function: If any natural substance is inserted into the bell, it summons a train of adventure. The train will load the user and up to one additional passenger into the carriage, then travel to a relatively safe location that will be of great benefit to the user, where it will drop off the passengers. It will return to pick up the user and return with the passengers after seven days. If the user's heart blood is inserted into the bell, all beings with a soul link to the user will be strengthened. For a short period of time, all soul links will have the same strength as the user. The user can choose whether to teleport to the user's side. Afterward, the soul links will experience a slight increase in strength.
Note: The first usage method is a good way to travel. According to company records, Adventure Bell rarely places you in a dangerous location you cannot accept. Its creator is a romantic person, and almost every encounter point is a beautiful place.
No one would use the second usage method, right? No way, no way.
Price: Company compensation, not for sale.]
"This thing! How did it end up in your hands!"
Halley felt like he was about to explode. After all, everyone was working for the boss. Why does Rope have so many good things?!
The world's favor, the isolation crystal that appeared earlier, and even the current Adventure Bell. These are all legendary consumables!
Each one is more precious than his own Undersea Mist.
And Halley still doesn't know about the Equal Life Scroll and Resurrection Coin.
If he did, he'd definitely be silenced by Galen's whisper—a move that would shatter his defenses.
Is the company chairman your father?!
It can only be said that if Year had a son, he might not treat him this well. After all, some resources are useful when given to those who can use them effectively; forcing them on someone without talent is pointless.
Though Halley was shattered, the Pokémon around Rope weren't idle. Eternatus and Charizard rushed toward Arceus to join forces with him against the Undersea Flower.
The other Pokémon stayed with Rope, glaring intently at Halley across the field.
At this point, both Rope and Halley were well aware of the situation.
Given how things had escalated, the intense battle they had been engaged in earlier was likely coming to an end
