"A misunderstanding?"
Terrakion growled, completely disbelieving such words, because all humans were the same!
"Stop, Terrakion!"
Cobalion, the leader of the Swords of Justice, exuding a calm aura, slowly stepped forward.
It looked at the human and Pokémon opposite. Through the scene just now, it suddenly realized that the relationship between this human and these Pokémon was not as they had imagined.
But Terrakion had seen too many instances of humans harming Pokémon, so how could it easily believe?
"Don't bother me, Cobalion!" Terrakion roared, its aura suddenly erupting, and it charged towards Draconis again.
Seeing this, Cobalion and Virizion frowned slightly, but ultimately did not continue to stop it. They stood silently to the side, observing the changing situation.
"Can't we just talk properly?" Draconis frowned. Since that was the case, he had nothing more to say!
"Serperior, Leaf Storm!"
Serperior flew forward, energy surging through its body. Pure Grass-type energy instantly condensed into a considerable Leaf Storm, sweeping towards Terrakion.
Terrakion let out a roar, actually crashing straight into the Leaf Storm with brute force.
The blade-like leaves continuously raged, sweeping over Terrakion's entire body. This move, which had been ineffective against Kyurem, actually left countless tiny wounds on its body!
Terrakion was slightly startled.
If I can't beat Kyurem, can't I beat you?
In the game, the three Swords of Justice, led by Cobalion, were all around Lv40, while Servine could only evolve into Serperior after reaching Lv36.
Furthermore, this era was still thousands of years away from that future, which meant that the current three Swords of Justice had not yet reached the level of power shown in the anime!
Terrakion roared again in the storm. It concentrated its power on its head, unleashing its most powerful move, Sacred Sword, to shatter the Leaf Storm.
However, Draconis had no intention of easily giving it a chance to get close.
"Serperior, Leaf Storm!"
The second Leaf Storm instantly swept towards Terrakion. This time, Terrakion tried to use Sacred Sword to cut it down again, but it then discovered with horror that the power of this Leaf Storm had become even stronger!
The scars on its body grew more numerous, and there was a faint tendency for them to expand.
Terrakion dared not delay, immediately mobilizing all its strength, once again unleashing Sacred Sword to tear it apart, and then looked breathlessly at Draconis opposite.
"You despicable human! I will not easily let you off today!"
Terrakion stomped the ground fiercely. In an instant, countless gravel flew up, suspended around it.
Under Terrakion's control, the gravel transformed into sharp rock shards, flying towards Draconis and Serperior like a sudden storm.
But facing this move, Draconis still chose the same command.
"Serperior, Leaf Storm!"
With the third Leaf Storm, under the effect of the Contrary ability, Serperior's abilities were greatly enhanced.
This meant that the power of each Leaf Storm would increase geometrically.
The green storm and the pointed rocks collided, neither giving way, and a violent explosion occurred.
Terrakion originally thought this move would be a draw, but the next second, it saw an incredibly terrifying scene.
That green Leaf Storm, carrying countless gravel, swept towards it!
"Ah—!"
Terrakion cried out in pain.
It knelt on one knee, its body already covered in wounds.
Draconis stood calmly to the side, his gaze coolly observing the scene.
"Can you listen properly now?"
Terrakion was slightly stunned.
"I have no ill intentions. As for the acts of harming Pokémon you speak of, I have never done them."
"I am Draconis, the Third Prince of the Eindoak Kingdom. I am currently dedicated to creating a place where humans and Pokémon can live together."
As Draconis spoke, he took out a Full Restore, developed by Lila, from his bag and threw it in front of Terrakion.
"Drink it, and your injuries will naturally heal."
At these words, the three Swords of Justice present were all stunned.
Terrakion looked at the potion in front of it, gritted its teeth, and said, "Don't think you can deceive us with such lies!"
Before Draconis could speak, Dragonair on the side couldn't help but exclaim loudly:
"Woo!" (What Draconis says is all true! He led everyone to establish a place, and now many Pokémon and humans are living happily together there!)
Larvesta: "Mela!" (You bad guys! We never lied, nor did we provoke you, yet you attacked us right away!)
Pokémon... speaking up for humans?
The three Swords of Justice were slightly taken aback.
Draconis extinguished the campfire. He didn't have much time to waste and was preparing to leave with a few Pokémon to find some suitable Ice-type Pokémon for special training.
The Swords of Justice watched his retreating figure.
Cobalion, the leader, suddenly spoke, "Wait!"
Draconis stopped and looked back.
"What you just said, is it all true?" Cobalion asked.
Draconis felt a little tired: "If you want to know, go see for yourselves! Keep heading southwest, and you will find my territory."
Upon hearing this, the three Swords of Justice already believed about eighty percent of what the Pokémon had just said.
"I don't have that much time to waste with you." Draconis looked at the three Pokémon with a heavy gaze: "A war that will sweep across the entire region is about to break out on this land."
"Behind the two leaders of that war stand Zekrom and Reshiram. Their strength is no weaker than Kyurem's."
"If you want to protect Pokémon, you shouldn't be wasting time here."
Hearing these words, Cobalion instantly understood.
"So, you came to challenge Kyurem because you want to borrow its power?" it asked.
Draconis nodded, then turned and left.
Leaving the three Swords of Justice staring blankly at his retreating figure.
After a long time, the heavily wounded Terrakion staggered to its feet.
"This guy..."
Only when he was out of sight did it lower its head and, as if venting its anger, bit the potion bottle to pieces.
Immediately, the green liquid splashed into its mouth, and Terrakion instinctively swallowed.
And the next second, a miraculous scene occurred.
As the liquid entered its mouth, the wounds on its body began to heal at a visible speed!
Terrakion was slightly startled.
Cobalion and Virizion, who had been calm, were also stunned by this scene.
At this moment, they completely believed what the human had just said.
The other party... perhaps really hadn't lied.
