Chapter 431: Staying Together
"Doulei."
Tornadus saw Victini leave too, laughed happily, and flew everywhere over this sea area.
However.
He didn't lie to Victini.
Before the matter over at Thundurus's side was resolved, he would indeed stay here and do nothing.
On one hand.
The Three Clouds inherently had no ill will towards those ordinary living beings, nor were they completely evil guys.
Otherwise.
They wouldn't have always used their abilities to keep this Unova land abundant and fertile for thousands of years.
What Tornadus always hated was only Thundurus.
As long as Thundurus wasn't around, he was no different from an ordinary Pokémon.
On the other hand.
Tornadus's rationality was online now, clearly knowing what to do under what circumstances.
If he made trouble now.
Later when Landorus came out, wouldn't he get a severe beating?
Besides, being able to set Thundurus up, he already felt very satisfied.
Abundant Shrine.
At this moment.
Around this stone pillar, Pokémon and Team Plasma members were lying all over the ground.
Although on their side, except for Will, the other five Pokémon were all lying down, and Cynthia also had some extra scratches from dodging attacks.
But the result was still their side winning.
Ridiculous Team Plasma, one of the Seven Sages plus twenty lackeys were actually completely wiped out by a twelve-year-old girl.
Although this result couldn't compare to the hot-blooded anime and manga protagonists who saved the world countless times in their early teens.
But this was already quite good.
At least in this era, looking at the whole world, one couldn't find a peer more outstanding than Cynthia.
It's a pity that Gorm, one of the Seven Sages, ran away.
Halfway through the battle, after he saw the situation was bad, he immediately let his Flying-type Pokémon take him to escape.
Will and Cynthia were delayed by other lackeys and had no time to chase him.
Besides, they still had to summon Landorus out.
But running away is just running away.
After this matter is over, they will leave Unova and return to Sinnoh; setting foot here again might be several years later.
They wouldn't encounter Team Plasma people for a long time in the future, so even letting Gorm run away wouldn't cause them trouble.
Right now.
There are more important things to do.
"Cynthia, are you okay?"
Will looked at Blonde-kun with heartache.
The youthful and beautiful Cynthia's arms and calves were covered with blood left after the scars healed.
Judging from the shape of the blood, those injuries were cut by stones or slashed by Pokémon attacks; a few of them even dangerously brushed past Cynthia's vital parts.
In the battle just now.
In order not to affect their battle, Cynthia didn't make a sound even if she was injured.
Even Will only discovered the situation on Cynthia's body after the battle ended.
Don't know how dangerous the situation was at that time.
Maybe with a moment of inattention.
Cynthia would lose some parts of her body due to the attacks of those Pokémon.
Although Will had already used Aura Power to help Cynthia heal the wounds at this moment, the pain she endured just now wouldn't disappear from memory.
The dark red blood soaking her clothes and pants is the proof.
Among the several human children Will had taken care of.
Cynthia is the only child at the age of 12, clearly staying by his side, yet still suffering such heavy injuries; this made him feel somewhat guilty in his heart.
Felt he didn't protect her well.
"It's okay, Riolu has already healed me, it doesn't hurt at all anymore. Thank you Riolu, love you~"
Cynthia saw Will was somewhat depressed, gently reached out to hug him, rubbed with her cheek, and then said,
"Let's summon Landorus quickly, right? Don't know how things are going with Victini and Keldeo."
"Mm!"
Will straightened his face and nodded.
The two walked in front of the Abundant Shrine.
Just planning to take action.
But saw a cyan radiant light coming from the sky behind them.
Will and Cynthia were stunned, turning around to look at the sky at the same time.
Only saw a dazzling electric light suddenly shooting towards them from the sky.
That was just an ordinary Discharge.
But in the hands of Thundurus, the power was like a Zap Cannon.
"!"
Will didn't even have time to say another word.
He immediately reached out to pull Cynthia behind him, raising his hand to open the Aura Barrier.
Whether it could block it or not.
He had no time to consider.
Even if he couldn't block it.
Blonde-kun behind him couldn't die before him.
"No!!"
Keldeo's figure darted over from a distance.
Seeing the electric light about to envelop Will and Cynthia, a more brilliant golden light suddenly shot out from his head; the determination wanting to protect his companions filled his whole body.
At this moment, the sleeping power in Keldeo's body was finally awakened.
The single horn on his forehead turned into a sword seemingly about to tear everything apart!
Secret Sword!
Keldeo used the sword on top of his head to pierce towards that lightning.
Centering on Will, a golden sun appeared under this pitch-black cloud layer.
Zzt zzt, the sound of electric current quietly flashed past.
The moment the electric light dispersed, Will and Keldeo were already lying on the ground, scorched black all over.
The aura on Keldeo's body was constantly weakening.
The little remaining boosting energy left by Victini was exhausted by that Secret Sword move just now.
"Riolu! Keldeo!"
Cynthia, recovering her senses, squatted down hurriedly, looking at the two Pokémon in a panic.
Raising her head.
Thundurus in the sky waved his arms.
He tore down layers of pitch-black clouds from the sky, and using the power of lightning and strong wind, made this black cloud form a black cloud tornado mixed with lightning and wind blades.
That is Thundurus's exclusive move—Wildbolt Storm.
Gulp.
Cynthia swallowed, looking at the black tornado tens of meters high in the sky.
"Ugh..."
Will's painful whimpering sound flowed out of his throat uncontrollably; bolts of electric light flashed across his body.
The paralyzed state made him, who was already dying, even more painful.
But it also forced his brain to activate, opening his eyes to see the situation in front of him clearly.
Before he could speak.
Thundurus had already thrown the black cloud held in his hand towards them.
But before that.
A thin red light hit Will's body.
The next moment he was recalled into a black and red Poké Ball.
This is a Cherish Ball.
It is the Poké Ball Kaoru got from the League after becoming the Chief Trainer of the Sinnoh League; it is said there are only a few in the whole world.
She gave this commemorative ball to her daughter Cynthia.
And Cynthia left this ball for her beloved Riolu.
A Cherish Ball is of course a very precious thing.
But for Cynthia.
More precious than the Cherish Ball is the baby inside the ball.
Black clouds pressed down on the city.
The surging storm blew her beautiful golden hair flying.
But Cynthia didn't take another look at the black tornado.
She squatted down, gently kissed the Poké Ball in her hand, and then guarded it tightly in her arms:
"Love you the most."
The voice fell.
Bang!
The Poké Ball in Cynthia's arms was like being pried open by something suddenly; pure white light condensed in front of her and Keldeo.
That black cloud tornado carrying thunder and storm, in front of this white light, disintegrated inch by inch like tofu.
When the white light dispersed.
A 1.8-meter-tall Lucario instantly appeared on the spot.
When the beliefs wanting to protect each other intersected.
Then evolution also became inevitable.
"Riolu..."
Cynthia raised her head, looking blankly at the figure in front of her and murmured, then her eyes suddenly lit up and shouted:
"Lucario!"
Will waved his hand and shook his body.
Azure energy instantly collapsed the electric currents running everywhere in his body.
"Tini!"
Victini's angry voice sounded from afar.
Following closely behind the voice was Victini turning into a big fireball.
Only saw Victini covering his whole body with flames, crashing heavily into Thundurus, knocking him spinning and flying more than ten meters away in the air.
"Victini!"
Will called out.
The little guy immediately flew to the top of his head.
White energy poured in.
Will's level climbed steadily, going straight up from the original Lv. 56 all the way to Lv. 75.
"Let's defeat him together."
Will clenched his fists, raising his eyes to look at Thundurus in the air with a dark face.
Don't know what's wrong with this guy.
Suddenly so angry.
Putting on an expression of being played.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
"Tini!"
Victini hugged Will's head, two watery blue eyes staring aggressively at Thundurus.
This hateful guy, actually almost killed his friends just now.
Unforgivable!
"Cynthia, take Keldeo to hide in the bushes nearby, then try to summon Landorus; please."
Will raised his hand and waved backwards.
Crystal clear water immediately splashed out from his palm.
Elite Four level enhanced Life Dew.
After evolving into Lucario.
The move pool that can be learned broadened greatly.
The moves Will could originally learn with the increase in level, and the moves he had already mastered in previous lives, were all recalled at this moment.
Now the moves loaded on him have reached 50 plus!
When those water drops covered Cynthia and Keldeo, the scars on their body surfaces instantly recovered at a visible speed.
"Mm!"
Cynthia felt the blood on her body itching, seeming the skin underneath was regenerating.
She had no time to look at her wounds.
Hurriedly dragged Keldeo into the bushes nearby, then ran back and knelt on the ground, putting her hands together towards the Abundant Shrine, bowing her head and chanting silently.
Thundurus saw Cynthia summoning Landorus.
Eyes glared.
Also couldn't care about going back to settle accounts with Tornadus.
Raised his hand and shot out a swift electric pillar.
Boom!
However, just as the electric pillar was shot out.
Will opened his mouth and sprayed out a thick purple energy pillar.
Dragon Pulse!
The surging energy pillar and the electric light pillar intersected and collided, producing a mushroom cloud.
The black smoke hadn't dispersed yet.
Thundurus, crossing his arms over his chest, suddenly widened his eyes.
Only saw that from the thick black smoke, at least thirty or forty light blue energy balls shot out!
Those energy balls made Thundurus look a bit dazzled.
He didn't notice that behind the light of these energy balls.
There was also a figure performing Swords Dance wrapped in water currents, shooting towards him like a meteor.
