There was still an unknown and lengthy journey ahead of her, with only that small flame of life guiding her way forward.
"Melo!"
Wait for me—I will save you!
In contrast, back on the shores of Poni Island in the Alola spiritual realm...
Tapu Lele wiped away tears with a handkerchief in one hand while waving goodbye to Meloetta with the other.
Tapu Bulu comforted her.
"Bulu~"
Don't worry, Meloetta will come back to play with you.
Tapu Lele wiped away the nonexistent tears with the handkerchief again, put it away, then turned and left.
Since there was nothing else happening here, she had to rush back to Akala Island as soon as possible.
There was still a lot to be done after this.
Tapu Bulu looked at this fickle female Pokémon, his eyes widening like copper bells.
"Bulu!"
I can't understand it, but I'm shocked!
So, after the Tapu guardian deities finished their own business, they decided to let the eldest brother take charge.
Tapu Bulu especially stretched himself considerably.
He had been out for a long time this time and was so sleepy. He needed to go back and sleep quickly.
"Fini!"
Tapu Fini wasn't in such a hurry. After all, the island they were on was exactly his Poni Island.
He was already home!
Tapu Koko sighed helplessly and waved his short arms.
After all, days like this had gone on for hundreds of years.
"Koko, Koko..."
Tapu Koko, with his back to the other two Tapu guardian deities, sat in a corner drawing circles.
Go ahead, all of you go. Nobody cares about me anyway...
If you leave, don't come back!
Tapu Koko turned around sadly, but only saw the backs of two figures who had already departed.
Tapu Koko clutched his chest, feeling like he was about to cough up blood.
Tears streamed down his face even more freely.
As for why two and not three—naturally, it was because Tapu Lele had already flown back to her Akala Island without even saying goodbye to the eldest brother.
"Koko..."
This is too cruel...
Roy watched the entire process, covering his mouth to hold back his laughter, trying not to let himself laugh out loud.
Tapu Koko was now in an indiscriminate attack mode across the entire area. His expression immediately darkened when he saw Roy's appearance.
"Koko!"
Why are you laughing?!
Roy straightened up immediately.
"It's nothing—I just remembered something happy."
Tapu Koko naturally couldn't understand this old meme from Earth and looked at Roy suspiciously.
After all, he couldn't figure out what was going on.
So Tapu Koko twisted around and put on his eager-to-please smile again.
Roy noticed he seemed to be heading in Solgaleo's direction.
Roy squinted his eyes and looked toward the highest point on Poni Island, where a black tower stood prominently.
It was clearly a sunny day, but near the black tower, the sunlight seemed somewhat dimmer.
However, such signs were only noticed by Roy, an Aura guardian, after careful observation.
Roy thought for a moment and could probably guess what it was.
Roy touched his chin, and the name and appearance of Necrozma flashed through his mind.
"You're really greedy."
Caroline stood quietly at his side. Hearing Roy's inexplicable words, she didn't find it strange.
This person always said inexplicable things.
Inexplicably became very strong.
However, inexplicably, he easily attracted everyone's attention.
It was as if wherever he stood became the center of the world, and people couldn't take their eyes off him.
If Roy knew Caroline's thoughts, he would definitely yell and take two steps back.
"Because I need popularity points!"
Popularity! More! More!"
But fortunately, Roy didn't know. Otherwise, Roy would probably just scratch his head in embarrassment.
After a while, when Roy was considering whether to invite Tapu Koko to visit the black tower...
Tapu Koko suddenly stood on a large rock in front of all the testers.
Roy thought this pose looked familiar, but he couldn't quite remember where he'd seen it.
"Hmm... why is it on the tip of my tongue!"
"What is it?"
And this question was answered the moment Tapu Koko opened his mouth.
"Koko!"
Ahem, listen up everyone...
Roy was startled, then looked at Tapu Koko as if he were already wearing a padded coat and holding a ceramic cup.
Don't underestimate the village chief as an official!
"Koko!"
Please rest in the Alola spiritual realm. As for whether the island challenge will continue, we will give you an answer tomorrow.
If you need any help, the Totem Pokémon of each island will assist you.
So, I wish you all a pleasant stay in Alola these days~
The important information was conveyed to everyone through Tapu Koko's voice.
The testers were indeed very tired and temporarily stayed on their favorite islands.
After the fierce battle, Tapu Lele also welcomed a busy period.
Most of the Pokémon wounded in battle recovered from their injuries thanks to Tapu Lele.
In contrast, Tapu Bulu hid in his ruins and slept soundly.
Tapu Bulu, in his sleep, wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth.
The light from that deity smells delicious. I wonder what it tastes like.
Tapu Koko deployed an electric detection network throughout the Alola spiritual realm, so he could be informed of any changes in Alola immediately.
A tower that large didn't even need the power of the electric network to detect.
During his conversation with Solgaleo, Tapu Koko also learned that the one sealed in the black tower was the great deity Necrozma.
"Koko."
So we only have three or four years left?
Roy nodded and said, "According to my general understanding of seals, that's about right."
"Also, Necrozma's awakening is accelerating rapidly, and it's very likely to affect Poni Island."
Solgaleo looked at Tapu Koko's tense expression but gained a rare sense of motivation.
"La~"
Don't worry. Lunala and I will stay here the entire time and strengthen the seal.
"Koko!"
That's wonderful!
A glimmer of hope appeared in Tapu Koko's eyes. It's great to have such a reliable deity!
A gratified expression gradually appeared on Roy's face.
Well done! You've gradually become a reliable adult!
Then, Solgaleo took Roy on his back and came to the ruins of the Altar of the Sunne together with Tapu Koko.
That was the black tower where Necrozma was sealed.
"La~"
I'll be staying here from now on!
Solgaleo stood in front of the black tower, looking confident.
Roy had no objections. After all, no matter what the environment, he had gradually adapted to it over the past few years as a Trainer.
