Chapter 118 — Who Do You Think You Are, Sun Wukong?

In a forest on the outskirts of Lumiose City, far from the Valley of Creation.

Another Zygarde Core with a slug-like appearance but with a red core in its abdomen suddenly sensed something unusual.

It lifted its head and gazed toward the western coastal region.

It could sense that something had changed with its other half, the blue core.

Indeed, the blue core and red core each held 50% of Zygarde's power.

The two were originally one being.

When something happened to one side, the other naturally could sense it.

And now, what the red core sensed from the blue core was rage, hatred, and loss of control.

Compared to the red core, which hoped to coexist peacefully with humans and had a gentle temperament.

While the blue core was cold and distrustful of humans, it had never exhibited such intense negative emotions before.

Something's wrong!

The red core confirmed internally.

Intense green light gathered like meteor showers toward the red core, causing it to rapidly transform into a new hound-like form.

Zygarde 10% Form - Dog Form!

Without further thought, the red core sprinted at full speed toward the Valley of Creation.

What's happened to you, Blue Core?

...

...

"It's no good, Boss Lysandre, Zygarde won't obey our commands!"

Xerosic reported tearfully to Lysandre while holding the controller.

Compared to Sun Wukong's side, the battle situation at the Valley of Creation could only be described as "chaos."

Yveltal and Xerneas, those mortal enemies, naturally faced off against each other.

Meanwhile, Korrina was battling Malva with the resolve to clean house.

Serena had confronted Alain, who had defeated her once before, seeking revenge with Greninja.

Mary, holding the confined Hoopa, sat atop a Mega Latias, constantly restraining the enraged serpentine form of Zygarde.

Steven had now roughly grasped the situation, using his Metagross to wreak havoc among the Team Flare grunts.

If it weren't for Champion-level trainer Lysandre sending out his Pyroar and Gyarados to block Steven.

The entire Team Flare would have been wiped out by this rock collector.

Lysandre's face turned ashen - if they could perfectly control Zygarde, the battle would be completely in their favor.

The current Zygarde was in a complete berserker state, destroying anything that entered its sight!

But as someone who had risen to become a League President while leading a criminal organization.

Lysandre's quick thinking led him to decide:

"Forget about Zygarde, focus on capturing Xerneas, once we have it, we'll retreat immediately!"

Originally, to activate the ultimate weapon, they only needed the God of Destruction and the God of Eternity.

As for Zygarde, the guardian of order, Lysandre had only considered it as a backup plan from the start.

As long as they could get Xerneas, trading this out-of-control being wouldn't matter.

"Keep Steven busy!"

After making his decision, Lysandre ordered his high-ranking executives, then pressed his Key Stone.

"Gyarados! Mega Evolve!"

The Mega Gyarados, transformed from a fierce beast into what looked like... a giant shrimp, instantly changed direction and lunged toward Xerneas.

"Are they targeting Xerneas? Metagross! Stop them!"

Steven immediately saw through Lysandre's scheme and commanded Metagross to intervene.

But he was quickly blocked by Xerosic, Aliana, and other Team Flare executives.

"Get out of my way!"

Steven, who had learned Lysandre's true purpose from Korrina, was getting anxious.

They absolutely couldn't let Xerneas fall into Lysandre's hands, and they definitely couldn't let that so-called ultimate weapon activate!

...

"Latias still can't handle Zygarde..."

Mary frowned atop Mega Latias.

[Hoopa can still bring in two more, want help?]

The confined Hoopa in her arms looked up at Mary and asked.

Mary pressed her lips together and shook her head:

"Wait a bit longer, it would be terrible if we caused a space-time collapse."

When Sun Wukong had entrusted the confined Hoopa to her, he'd warned her not to let Hoopa summon legendary Pokémon recklessly.

If too many were summoned and caused dimensional collapse.

Who would fix that?

Arceus?

They weren't even sure if Arceus was currently thinking about destroying the world or not.

What if it refused to help?

"I won't rely on legendary power, I'll do everything myself, by myself!"

Mary made a firm resolution, taking out several Poké Balls and throwing them forcefully.

Grimmsnarl! Morpeko! Incineroar! Tyranitar!

These were Mary's current four Pokémon!

An army of Dark-types.

"Mary, don't be reckless!"

Korrina was somewhat frightened.

That girl, she couldn't be planning to face Zygarde with these Pokémon, could she?

Who do you think you are, Sun Wukong?!

"Please, everyone!"

Mary raised her small fist and called out:

"Morpeko, Magic Flash!"

"Morpe!"

Morpeko crossed its two short arms together, pointing its palms toward the guardian of order.

A dazzling golden beam of light shot toward Zygarde.

"That's... the move that appeared in the Galar Star Tournament before?"

Steven was secretly startled.

The serpentine Zygarde, its eyes bloodshot, slammed its long tail hard against the ground.

The desert earth shook violently, endless sand and stones rose like a tsunami, creating green super-waves of sand dozens of meters high, surging in all directions.

One of Zygarde's signature moves, Thousand Waves!

Those caught in the battlefield quickly mounted their Pokémon to dodge.

But facing this scene, Mary didn't retreat at all, waving her hand and shouting:

"Tyranitar, I'm counting on you."

"ROAR!!!"

The Desert Tyrant's body began to expand as if about to explode.

Under the incredulous gazes of those around, it rapidly expanded to a height of over 30 meters.

The giant Tyranitar, taller than the sand waves, spread both arms to become a massive wall, blocking all the incoming sand storm waves for its trainer.

"Dy-Dynamax?!"

Steven, Korrina, and others' eyes widened.

How, how is this possible?!

They hadn't seen Mary's Dynamax Band glowing!

And this wasn't even Galar, there shouldn't be any Wishing Stars' energy needed for Dynamaxing, how could she Dynamax?!

"Could this be - another one of those special moves that guy taught her!?"

Korrina suddenly remembered something.

It was about those various strange moves that Sun Wukong had taught Mary and Serena.

That "Magic Flash" move from earlier was one of them too.

Yes, this was also a demon clan technique, the Super Giant Form.

Looking at the effects, it was very similar to Galar's Dynamax.

But unlike Dynamax, stamina didn't increase with the size expansion.

However, it wouldn't force-revert after just three moves like Dynamax, and the attack power was similarly enhanced.

The only drawback was that, like Dynamax, mobility would be reduced.
