After raging for a short one or two minutes, the pillar of light's energy was exhausted, and it finally turned into colorful specks of light, completely dissipating from this world.
At the center of the battlefield, in the reception hall at the bottom of the crystal tower.
At this moment, the explosion had completely subsided, and the shaking of the earth had also stopped. Ash and the others, who had been lying on the ground, also lowered the arms that were protecting their heads and cautiously looked at the ceiling above them with the corner of their eyes.
Before, it had been a towering structure, with thick crystal walls. But now, it had all vanished with the pillar of light, not leaving even a speck of dust behind.
Who could have imagined what a terrifying scene they had just experienced?
Chased down by the pillar of light, they had raced against time, using both hands and feet, wishing they could just jump off the tower. They had been just a hair's breadth away from being affected by that unbeatable power.
Looking back now, it was truly thrilling.
And it was only at this moment that they understood why Natsui had told them to be quick when they parted ways.
It was definitely not just because he wanted them to deal with the Unown problem immediately, but because he didn't want them to be swallowed up by this move.
The cool moonlight shone on their bodies, calming their minds.
The group looked at each other. Fortunately, no one was hurt.
Looking behind them again and seeing the dozens of Unown circling there, they couldn't help but feel a wave of relief.
Just now, at the most critical moment, they had finally arrived here, and it was the Unown who, in the nick of time, had unleashed their energy to block the pillar of light, protecting everyone.
This wasn't out of kindness, but in the face of such powerful destructive force, the Unown had also felt the crisis and were just protecting themselves.
And the energy mass in the center of the Unown that Natsui had mentioned had also been completely consumed in blocking the pillar of light's attack.
This was good news. In another sense, it could be said that Natsui had indirectly solved the problem of the Unown's expanding energy.
Ash stood up, dusted himself off, and looked at Molly.
Because of the Unown's weakness, as the source of the illusionary Entei's power, it also caused the illusionary Entei to lose its strength, looking extremely weak.
This was a rare opportunity. It was time to completely resolve this matter.
With this thought, Ash and his mother, Delia, exchanged a look. Then, the mother and son walked towards Molly together to make the final break.
…
Under the starry sky, the sound of flapping wings could be heard. Natsui looked up and saw Moltres, Articuno, and Zapdos flying down from high above, landing beside him.
Creating such an attack had also exhausted all their energy. At this moment, they all looked visibly very weak, as if they had been completely drained, and were unable to fight anymore.
The Triple Bird Strike was not only a ultimate move against the enemy, but also their own final resort.
Once used, if they still couldn't win, it meant that their skills were indeed inferior, and there was no need to struggle any further.
It could be said that after using this move, they would either turn the tables and defeat the opponent, changing the situation, or they would lose their strength and be captured, at the mercy of others.
Fortunately, it now seemed that at least the three legendary beasts could not withstand the damage of the Triple Bird Strike.
He had won the final victory.
Beside him, Erika looked at the three large bird Pokémon, her heart filled with amazement at their beauty and elegance.
In the past, she had only seen videos and photos of the three legendary birds online or on TV. She never would have thought that one day, she would be able to witness them up close like this.
"They're so beautiful…"
As soon as she said this, the three legendary birds' favor towards Erika greatly increased. They turned their heads to look at this woman and all felt that she was much more pleasing to the eye than the silent psychic girl from before.
"They are indeed very beautiful, and very powerful," Natsui smiled and nodded. "It took a lot of effort to catch them back then."
With that, he walked up to the three legendary birds and stroked their feathers.
"You've all worked hard in this battle. Go back into your Poké Balls and rest for a bit."
Taking out the Ultra Balls, he recalled the three legendary birds. After doing this, he mounted Charizard again and extended a hand to Erika.
"Alright, now let's go and see the results of the battle."
Pulling Erika onto Charizard's back, Natsui had Charizard change direction and flew back towards the battlefield.
Beneath them was a complete mess. Everywhere was covered in powdered crystal, the aftermath of the explosion's shockwave. And in the center of the battlefield, a deep crater had been blasted out.
At this moment, the three legendary beasts were lying near the deep crater, each panting heavily, all on the verge of fainting.
As he landed, Natsui took three unused Ultra Balls from his pouch and threw one of them at the Suicune closest to him.
Seeing the Ultra Ball fly closer and closer, Natsui was undoubtedly in a great mood.
The three legendary beasts were weakened to this state, completely unable to resist, like lambs to the slaughter. This capture was a sure thing.
However, just at this moment, a flash of fire suddenly streaked across the sky, passing in front of him at an extremely fast speed and shattering the Ultra Ball.
Under the burning flames, the Ultra Ball was directly turned to ash.
"What!?"
Natsui was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head to look at the sky. Under the dark starry sky, a large bird Pokémon was flapping its wings, looking down on him from above.
Its unique appearance made Natsui recognize it at a glance.
Ho… Ho-Oh!?
Natsui rubbed his eyes, confirming that the Pokémon before him was not a Fearow, but the real Ho-Oh.
Beside him, Erika also covered her mouth in surprise, looking in shock at the legendary Pokémon before her, which was even rarer to see than the three legendary beasts.
In terms of appearance, Ho-Oh's feathers were mostly gold and red, its tail feathers were yellow, the feathers on the dark side of its body were white, and the feathers at the tips of its wings were green. It had green stripes on its neck, a yellow beak, red eyes with black eye sockets, and a yellow feather crest on its head, looking shimmering, gorgeous, and noble.
After confirming that it was indeed Ho-Oh, Natsui also quickly took out his Pokédex and pointed it at it.
Pokédex: Beep. Ho-Oh, the Rainbow Pokémon. A Fire/Flying type. One of the legendary large bird Pokémon. Ho-Oh is a Pokémon recorded in myths. It is said that it lives at the foot of a rainbow and continuously flies through the sky with its seven-colored, magnificent wings. A rainbow forms where it flies. In legends, anyone who sees Ho-Oh will have eternal happiness.
Natsui would never have thought that in this incident, the successive arrival of the three legendary beasts was already magical enough. He never expected that in the end, even Ho-Oh would appear.
But… what is it doing here? And why would it appear at this time?
