Chapter 429: Lugia's Fury
Upon returning, Hikaru immediately went to Wind City's Pokémon League Center, revealed his identity, and explained the situation.
With his current reputation, outsiders had long since regarded him as an Elite Four level trainer.
"Is this true?"
Wind City's Pokémon League Branch Chairman was a long-famous Elite Four level trainer who had even experienced the great battle between Kyogre and Groudon in his earlier years. At this moment, upon hearing Hikaru's words, his expression couldn't help but change drastically.
Hikaru nodded, "Yes! The most pressing matter is to find the cause of Lugia's rage."
He had seen this with his own eyes, so he naturally wouldn't be lying.
Du Xiao looked at the young trainer before him and quickly relayed this information to his superiors.
Lugia's fury towards an entire city was not something he could resolve.
After he finished his report.
A loud bang suddenly erupted, transmitting directly to the Pokémon League Center in the heart of Wind City.
Accompanying it was an overwhelming sense of pressure.
"Have the masses been completely evacuated?"
Du Xiao asked urgently.
But at this moment, none of his subordinates beside him dared to speak.
In half an hour, ensuring that all citizens were completely evacuated was simply impossible.
Moreover, now knowing that Lugia was the one causing this tornado, the significance of the disaster was upgraded once again.
Even being far from the seaside was still not safe; at the very least, they had to evacuate to the back mountain.
"Then what are you all standing around for? Hurry up and go!"
"Yes!"
A host of League trainers responded in unison.
Hikaru didn't waste words either, "Chairman, then we'll go help too!"
"I'm counting on you all..."
Knowing it was an emergency, Du Xiao didn't stand on ceremony.
Summoning Latias, Hikaru, along with his senior sister, quickly disappeared from the spot.
But by the time they reached the seaside again, Lugia had already arrived.
The surrounding swirling gales were almost tangible. It was surrounded by pillars of water spun up by psychic power. Once these water pillars poured down,
At that time, never mind the coastline, the entire Wind City would be submerged.
Amidst the fierce wind and rain,
A Pidgeot, swaying precariously in the wind, floated up in front of Lugia.
Lugia didn't immediately whip up a storm, indicating there was still room for negotiation.
The person who floated up was none other than Chairman Du Xiao from the Pokémon League.
Although he knew doing this was very dangerous, with the wrath of a Legendary Pokémon, a slight misstep could mean his death here.
Even with the constitution of an Elite Four level trainer, in front of such an existence, he was no more than an ant.
"Respected God of Ocean Currents, may I ask if we humans have angered you in some way?"
Du Xiao lowered his attitude as much as possible, speaking piously.
From a certain perspective, more than 80% of Wind City's current prosperity was due to Lugia. If it was truly the human side that had done something wrong to anger it, then making amends was naturally the best choice.
"Heir... my heir, my child..."
Lugia suppressed the rage in its heart. The waterspouts on the sea had already been unleashed downwards.
In just an instant, the beach was filled with seawater, and even the city streets were being eroded by it.
It paid no attention to Du Xiao in the air, instead turning its gaze towards the back mountain area.
There, was the aura of its child.
The seawater poured in, its immense impact ravaging everything around.
The original tall buildings, under such an impact, were toppled in a single encounter.
The Elite Four level Pidgeot in the air also found it difficult to stabilize itself in the strong wind and fell straight towards the ground.
This was the power of a Legendary Pokémon. Just by the stirring of its aura, ordinary Elite Four level Pokémon posed no obstacle at all.
"Let's go, to the back mountain..."
Seeing Du Xiao surface in the water after falling, Hikaru breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, it let him know that trying to reason with the current Lugia was simply impossible.
Its goal was to find its successor, which was also its child.
That was probably the target of this [Guidance of the Legendary Pokémon] as well.
The back mountain...
Hikaru, in a state of [Godly Stealth], transformed into a streak of aurora and sped towards the back mountain.
In half an hour, it was naturally impossible to evacuate all of Wind City's residents. Under the probe of his Aura power, Hikaru sensed that many people were currently in deep water, continuously climbing towards higher ground.
But the extent of the flooding completely exceeded their imagination.
A hundred-meter-tall building was ultimately left with only its roof showing.
In the seawater, with the rise and fall of the stormy waves, most people were swaying precariously, in a state of terror.
In such a natural disaster, it was slightly better for those with Water-type Pokémon.
If not, one could only resign to fate.
Fortunately, Lugia wasn't deliberately causing destruction, otherwise...
Most of these residents who couldn't evacuate in time would have perished here.
"Greninja, Dragonair, Gardevoir, Lucario, I'm counting on you all..."
In mid-air,
Hikaru called out all his Pokémon, then used his Aura power to instruct those that could fly or enter the water to save as many people and Pokémon as possible.
"Greninja, Togekiss, I'm counting on you too."
Xue Nai, seeing this from behind, also called out her useful Pokémon.
With Latias's speed, they arrived at the back mountain at almost the same time as Lugia.
Moreover, both parties sensed the波动 (bōdòng - fluctuations/waves) of a battle at almost the same time!
This aura.
Was identical to the Lugia flying above!
It was also in the same direction as the aura guiding Hikaru. Clearly, this was the infant Legendary Pokémon.
Not far away, a smaller Lugia was battling, and its opponents were the Pokémon of two humans.
Three peak Master-level Mightyena were on the ground, with an Elite Four level Crobat and an Elite Four level Staraptor harassing from the sky. Finally, there was a Noivern covering from the trees.
And this little Lugia was clearly only at peak Lord tier, not even Master level yet.
Under such an encirclement, it was already covered in wounds.
If not for its Legendary Pokémon constitution, it probably would have already collapsed and lost its will to fight.
Lugia, upon sensing this situation, its rage clearly intensified.
Its psychic power raged, causing the surrounding large trees to rustle violently, and tree after tree was uprooted!
From several dozen kilometers away, Hyper Beam was already gathering in its mouth.
Over there, the few Pokémon that were still "bullying" the little Lugia suddenly froze. They felt a powerful aura lock onto them, unable to even mobilize their energy, only feeling the aura of death surrounding them.
"We're done for..."
The other Team Aqua member's heart instantly turned cold. He couldn't help but complain to Izumi beside him. She insisted on not leaving, and now look...
But just at this critical juncture, countless green lights lit up from the heavens and the earth, piercing through the dim, dark clouds...
