Ambushing Cosmog from the Start - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Arceus

Seeing that Black Kyurem had been defeated, Chen Xinghe, who had been hiding nearby, couldn’t suppress the wild excitement in his eyes.

Just as he was about to step forward and claim the spoils of war, he suddenly felt an overwhelming killing intent behind him.

Whirling around, he came face-to-face with Necrozma, its body radiating terrifying power.

It was staring right at him.

A chill shot down Chen Xinghe’s spine. He immediately reached for his Poké Balls—

But before he could act, Suicune appeared in front of him, blocking his path.

———

“Mighty one… Please, give the Pokémon League a chance!”

“Chen Xinghe acted recklessly, and the League will hold him accountable!”

“For now… spare him. I beg you!”

“Right now, Rayquaza is the real threat. Let me fight alongside you to calm its rage!”

———

A woman’s voice echoed in Necrozma’s mind, one that Chen Nian, mentally linked to Necrozma, also heard.

It belonged to Suicune’s trainer, the mysterious girl.

Does she have psychic abilities too?

———

Seeing Suicune, Chen Xinghe relaxed slightly—until, without warning, Suicune blasted him with Hyper Beam.

Caught completely off guard, Chen Xinghe had no time to defend himself.

He and his Salamence were sent flying.

“Miss Wen, you—”

“Silence!” The girl’s voice cut through his thoughts like a blade. “Chen Xingha, you dare cause more chaos after all this destruction? Did you truly believe you could control such power?”

“The League has ordered your arrest. Return your Pokémon and surrender yourself—now!”

Chen Xinghe paled at her words.

Glancing between Suicune and Necrozma, he reluctantly recalled his Pokémon.

Within moments, two League officers appeared and took him away.

———

With Black Kyurem down, only Rayquaza remained.

Now free to act, Necrozma unleashed its full power, charging at the sky serpent.

Meanwhile, Suicune, guided by the mysterious girl, provided support.

Even outnumbered, Rayquaza fought fiercely, refusing to back down.

———

Though battered by both opponents, Rayquaza held its ground.

The battle’s intensity only grew—until, suddenly, the sky split open.

A massive sphere of light appeared above them.

Rayquaza, Necrozma, and Suicune all froze, their gazes lifting toward the heavens.

A multicolored ring materialized in the air, and from the void stepped a creature resembling a sacred stag.

The moment Chen Nian saw it, his expression changed.

“Arceus…?!”

“How is this possible?!”

He wasn’t the only one shocked. Even the mysterious Miss Wen stiffened in disbelief.

———

Arceus hovered in the sky, its presence overwhelming.

Even Rayquaza and Necrozma seemed suppressed under its gaze.

At the same time, Chen Nian received Arceus’ full data.

———

Arceus

Level: 129

Gender: Male

Potential: Creator Deity

Type: Normal

Ability: Multitype

Moves: Judgment, Earth Power, Cosmic Power, Natural Gift, Gravity…

———

Chen Nian’s eyes widened.

“Nine levels higher than Necrozma’s ultimate form… No wonder it’s called the God of Pokémon.”

“Even at full power, Necrozma would struggle against this!”

Arceus seemed to sense his scrutiny, briefly glancing in his direction—but it took no action.

Instead, it turned to Rayquaza and uttered a low, resonant call.

———

Hearing Arceus, Rayquaza released its Mega Evolution.

After one last glance at Necrozma, it soared back into the ozone layer.

Arceus didn’t leave immediately.

A soft white glow emanated from its body, enveloping the unconscious Kyurem.

Within seconds, Kyurem stirred awake.

Seeming to understand, it let out a deep growl before turning and vanishing into the dark abyss of Kunlun Mountain.
