Dark Continent, Near the coastal edges, where the [Gatekeeper] and the [Guide] resided.
Inside a massive dwelling, The [Gatekeeper] suddenly snapped open its enormous eyes, filled with shock, its body trembling uncontrollably.
Two terrifying auras had just surged forth like tidal waves, and even a being as formidable as itself felt suffocated.
[Damn it all, first two waves, and now another...]
The [Gatekeeper] shot into the air, its pupils contracting abruptly as if witnessing something unbelievable.
Following its gaze, deep within the Dark Continent's skies, an unfathomably vast Snake coiled across countless miles.
The Snake Lord's voice then reached the [Gatekeeper] as well.
"A... human?"
The [Gatekeeper] muttered in disbelief, unable to comprehend that the one qualified to face such a being was actually a human!
Did that mean the one who had confronted this level of existence before—and now—was the same human they had encountered back then?
Humans... truly were different now!
...
Volcanic region.
An enormous Snake's head hovered in the air, like a full moon, its icy gaze locked onto Akira.
Countless crimson lightning bolts coiled around it, making even the storm clouds seem insignificant in comparison.
Even its flickering tongue was unimaginably massive!
Beneath the colossal head stretched an equally enormous Snakeine body, coiled across the sky, occupying an immense expanse.
A single one of its eyes dwarfed skyscrapers, and its entire body was so vast it defied comprehension.
Below it lay an equally terrifying mountain range.
This stone mountain was staggeringly massive, sprawling endlessly across the land, its size beyond imagination.
The mountain's surface, even the sky around it, was shrouded in thick, dark energy.
Either of these entities alone dwarfed the six continents in sheer scale.
The immense pressure at this moment felt almost tangible, pressing down on Akira like a monkey about to be crushed under the Five-Finger Mountain.
Seeing Akira remain silent, the Rock Lord relaxed slightly and couldn't resist taunting:
"Snake Lord, I think you're being too cautious."
"This human might have some strength, but compared to us, he's still far inferior."
"But since things have come to this, I won't be returning that thing of yours."
BOOM—
As soon as the Rock Lord spoke, even the earth trembled uncontrollably, roaring in response.
The Snake Lord's eyes flickered slightly, utterly indifferent as he replied.
"That's fine. Today, all I want is this man's life."
"You can keep that thing!"
"Good! Today, I'll put in some extra effort and handle this myself. Consider it worth your price."
"Boy! Today, I'll show you what it means to face an unstoppable force!"
"This is the power of a god!"
The Rock Lord declared cheerfully, his words dripping with contempt for Akira.
Akira stood atop Genesect, calmly observing the Snake Lord and the Rock Lord.
The scene before him was indeed a rare apocalyptic sight.
The sky was filled with crimson lightning and dark clouds, rain the size of fists pouring down, and violent winds raging unchecked.
The land was already shattered, the volcano beneath him having collapsed completely moments ago.
Nearby volcanoes had suffered varying degrees of damage, though it was unclear whether this would affect their gestation cycles.
Thankfully, the Kurta Clan lived within the Secret Realm, untouched by the chaos unfolding outside.
What had been daytime was now forcibly transformed into a night-like environment by the Snake Lord, the darkness as thick as ink.
Faced with the combined assault from above and below, Akira felt nothing particularly remarkable.
He observed it all as if watching a blockbuster in a cinema.
Except...
Seeing these two still boasting arrogantly, so certain of their victory, he couldn't quite understand.
Why were they so utterly confident?
"I say..."
"Are you both so certain you can defeat me?"
Akira didn't raise his voice deliberately, yet his words carried as far as the Snake Lord's, reaching equally distant places.
Hearing this, the Snake Lord felt a sudden unease, but his expression remained bold:
"Boy! Today, you have only two choices!"
"Either you do it yourself, or..."
"We'll do it for you."
With deliberate effort, the Snake Lord's voice boomed even louder than before, like countless thunderclaps striking at once.
Akira's expression remained unchanged, his gaze still calm as he watched the Snake Lord.
Despite the vast difference in size, Akira carried himself as though he were on the same level—or even higher—than the Snake Lord.
Slowly raising a hand, Akira spoke in a measured tone:
"I'll return those words to you."
"Today, neither of you will leave."
Snap—
With the sound of a finger snap.
The next moment, three towering beams of light erupted violently from before Akira!
Green, blue, and red—three colossal, blindingly radiant pillars burst forth!
Three terrifying auras descended upon the battlefield at once, as though deities were about to manifest.
This spectacular sight was clearly visible to everyone—whether it was Don Freecss, Netero, or even the [Gatekeepers].
"Open your eyes wide and watch carefully!"
"This... is a god."
In an instant, three enormous figures suddenly appeared on the scene.
Each one's aura was more terrifying than the last!
The Snake Lord was greatly alarmed, unable to comprehend why three beams of light had appeared before his eyes.
Could it be... that another being of that level exists?
The emerald-green light dispersed—
Zygarde, transformed into a towering mech, hovered in the air as its dark green aura erupted violently.
The heroic and awe-inspiring mech warrior exuded a futuristic vibe, resembling humanity's ultimate trump card from a sci-fi movie.
Countless streams of light swirled around it, brimming with boundless power.
Every movement it made was capable of unleashing devastating destruction.
This was why Zygarde could stand as the supreme Legendary Pokémon of the Kalos region.
An unparalleled force!
This was the confidence it had to safeguard the ecological balance under any circumstances.
Zygarde clenched its fists, its body radiating a dazzling array of colors as the terrifying pressure of a Legendary Pokémon descended upon the battlefield.
The sudden appearance of such a fearsome opponent cast a heavy shadow over the Snake Lord and the Rock Lord, weighing down their hearts.
Because they realized—this unknown creature's aura seemed even stronger than theirs.
The first one!
Zygarde, the Z Legend.
Then, the lightning that had filled the sky vanished in an instant.
Quietly, the dark clouds above were replaced, unleashing a different kind of torrential rain that completely altered the weather.
A vast, ocean-like presence rapidly expanded in all directions!!
The raindrops in the sky shimmered with an azure glow, as if the heavens had merged with the sea.
An endless surge of blue Aura shot into the sky, dyeing it in a new hue.
The Snake Lord and the Rock Lord paled—this creature was far more terrifying than the last.
It was as if they were witnessing the God of the Sea.
The once-gloomy sky was now tinged with deep blue, saturated with an overwhelming density of Aura.
For a being like Kyogre, even a casual strike could bring about world-ending devastation.
A massive rift tore open in the void, revealing a pair of majestic eyes.
Then, its entire body emerged.
Strangely, Kyogre's appearance had changed from its original form.
Its body became semi-transparent, glowing yellow from within.
On its forehead and wing-like fins, markings resembling the "" symbol appeared.
This was the sign of [Primal Reversion].
The second one.
Primal Kyogre.
Immediately after, the earth inexplicably began to quake!
And the tremors were even more violent than before.
The remaining volcanoes shuddered in unison, erupting with countless streams of molten lava.
Even the ground, which had no lava before, inexplicably began to spew thick, crimson magma, covering the land.
As if welcoming the arrival of a certain presence!
In an instant, a mountainous red figure appeared on the battlefield.
Its body was covered in rivers of magma, its surface etched with rugged, rock-like patterns that gleamed sharply.
Its entire form was encased in red, plate-like skin.
The darker parts of its body were gray, with massive spikes protruding from its head, torso, and tail.
Each of its hands bore four claws, and four bulldozer-like teeth jutted upward from the tip of its tail.
Each foot had three claws, with gray markings on the soles.
Blue spikes were also visible along the seams of its skin, glowing whenever it gathered power.
Its eyes burned with a terrifying gaze, filled with overwhelming fury.
"ROAR!!"
Groudon let out an earth-shaking bellow, its voice echoing for miles in the form of a sonic wave.Instantly, countless pillars of magma erupted from the earth, one after another, dyeing the land crimson.
The magma clashed with the falling rain, eventually transforming into vast plumes of steam that shrouded the area in mist.
The third one!
The Continent Pokémon, Groudon.
Akira stood behind the three Legendary Pokémon, gazing alongside them at the Snake Lord and the Rock Lord.
In contrast, the Snake Lord and the Rock Lord felt as if they had fallen into an icy abyss, their hearts gripped by a pair of freezing hands.
The pain made it hard to breathe.
Zygarde, Primal Kyogre, and now the newly appeared Groudon—this lineup was absolutely beyond their ability to handle!
This... was the true power of gods.
In an instant, Kyogre's majestic eyes shimmered with a deep azure hue.
Immediately, the surrounding rain converged wildly around it, swirling in a vortex as the oceanic blue glow intensified.
As this happened, Kyogre unleashed its full might as a Legendary Pokémon, its aura surging rapidly!
With a slight tilt of its head, a massive sphere of blue light materialized before it, containing terrifyingly immense energy.
At this moment, sensing the violent energy fluctuations, the Rock Lord snapped out of its daze.
It hastily mobilized its own energy, preparing to defend itself.
Even if the gap in power was insurmountable, it couldn't just surrender without a fight.
Its pride as a Lord forbade such cowardice.
In a flash, tendrils of ashen-black mist seeped out, and the Rock Lord's form swelled several times in size.
For a brief moment, two vastly different energies clashed violently.
The azure surge of the ocean collided with the lifeless, ashen energy, intertwining in midair.
The sheer force of their collision created a spectacle so grand it rivaled the most epic Hollywood blockbuster.
Then, gales of wind erupted—the residual shockwaves from the colossal energy collision.
The next instant, countless blindingly bright cyan-white beams shot forth from the energy sphere.
Each beam carried immense Aura, their destructive power undeniable.
Water-type move—Origin Pulse!
"BOOM!! BOOM!! BOOM—!!!"
A series of deafening explosions erupted in unison.
The Rock Lord's massive body became nothing more than a target, enduring relentless bombardment.
Water was super effective against Rock.
Taking this attack head-on would inflict unimaginable damage.
The dazzling light illuminated the darkened surroundings, the violent shockwaves tearing through the sky.
Amidst the pouring rain, Kyogre hovered in the air, its body radiating a brilliant aqua glow.
This was the power of the Sea Guardian!
Zygarde wasn't idle either.
Its stern eyes locked onto the Snake Lord in the sky.
Last time, it had only defeated a mere clone.
Who would've thought the Snake Lord would remain unrepentant?
This time, Zygarde was determined to execute the Snake Lord on the spot.
At this moment, Zygarde's body brimmed with its own cells—this was the true, complete form of Complete Forme Zygarde.
This was its battle-ready form, designed to fulfill its duty of safeguarding the Pokémon ecosystem by unleashing its full power.
Its wings and tail each possessed a "Core" that functioned as a brain, capable of independent judgment and seamless transformation.
From the mouth on its chest, it could unleash a devastating high-energy blast to suppress any who threatened the ecosystem.
Without hesitation, Zygarde spread its wings wide, unleashing its full power as it charged straight at the Snake Lord.
The Snake Lord watched as Zygarde charged toward it, its face contorting with fear as all will to fight vanished from its heart.
If facing two enemies had given it a sliver of confidence, then against three, victory was utterly impossible—even escape seemed doubtful.
The Snake Lord writhed its massive body, immediately attempting to flee.
BOOM!!
Groudon's eyes flashed with a sharp glint as it stomped the ground with tremendous force, sending a deafening shockwave through the air.
In an instant, an enormous pillar of molten rock erupted from the earth, shooting straight toward the Snake Lord in the sky.
Groudon despised enemies that flew—just because it couldn't fly didn't mean it couldn't strike them down.
