[Xiapi City]
The entire Cao army camp had already turned into a tangled mess.
The Xiapi garrison didn't send out a single person, yet the whole Cao army collapsed.
Under the psychic control of the two Gardevoir, both trainers and Pokémon lost all combat ability.
Some trainers longed for freedom just like some Pokémon and scattered in all directions.
Some Pokémon wanted to achieve merit just like their trainers and charged at Cao Cao like mad, wanting to drag him into Xiapi City.
As for Cao Cao himself, he kept shouting that Patrick Star was invincible and that he wanted to become one of Patrick Star's officers.
A few elite generals' Pokémon had the strength to resist the two Gardevoir's psychic link, but they didn't dare to make a move.
The reason was simple. The enormous black Rayquaza was still floating in the sky, and whenever someone wanted to strike, divine-punishment-like meteors would fall.
Yet not a single person dared to attack him.
This era hadn't reached its most chaotic point yet. Every lord wanted to claim legitimacy.
And the Rayquaza flying in the sky represented the greatest legitimacy of Donghuang.
Being struck by Rayquaza was fine. But if anyone dared to strike Rayquaza, then they could forget about contending for dominance.
Everyone would go crazy killing anyone who disrespected Rayquaza in order to earn legitimacy.
Seeing the powerful Cao army get crushed so easily, the soldiers on the city walls couldn't help cheering.
They had never imagined the situation would end like this.
In one corner, the soldier who first welcomed Axel slapped his own chest.
"Hahaha! The moment I saw Lord Axel, I knew he was an invincible trainer."
His companion showed no mercy, "Then why did you send him to Lord Wang's residence? Didn't the higher-ups say we only send unimportant people there?"
"You don't get it. I saw that Lord Li had too many guests to greet, so I didn't want him to neglect such an important visitor!"
Lord Li, who was wearing armor nearby, felt his stomach twist in pain.
'You bastard, you messed up but you blame me?'
If he weren't afraid that this soldier and Axel had become familiar, he would have demoted the soldier three ranks instantly.
To think he, Old Li, could have been the one to know someone with such astounding luck.
Below the walls, some bold citizens with their Pokémon stepped out of the city gates, throwing rotten vegetables and rotten eggs at the fleeing Cao troops.
No one knew how they had survived these past days.
First, the Cao army attacked the city and killed the commander.
At that time, they thought it would be like usual, just living under a new ruler.
They never imagined that Cao Cao didn't want to occupy this city at all, only to sacrifice everyone's lives to force Diao Chan to submit.
Once Axel shattered Cao Cao's scheme, Cao Cao then marched in with his army again!
At that moment, many even hid their children in basements, planning to fight to the death with their low-level Pokémon.
They didn't expect Axel's strength to be this absurd.
Not only did he easily rout the Cao army, he even earned the recognition of the black Rayquaza.
The insults toward the Cao army and cheers toward Axel gradually merged into one unified chant.
"The yellow sky has died, the blue sky shall rise!"
["What the hell? The blue sky shall rise?",] Not far from Xiapi, the black and green Zygarde froze hard.
He had just sensed a Pokémon's aura behaving abnormally, like it was about to gain divine status, and right after that he ran into something like this?
Zygarde quickly connected the strange aura he sensed with this person named Axel.
As the embodiment of order, he understood something very clearly.
There weren't many coincidences in the world. If too many coincidences lined up, some scheme must be hidden behind them.
If he wasn't mistaken, this person named Axel should be the trainer of that soon-to-ascend Pokémon.
As expected, trainers who could raise near-divine Pokémon were never honest.
Now he could basically confirm it. Here was another one who wanted to rule the world.
As expected, once unassigned gods appeared, they would create huge chaos in the world's order.
Zygarde felt helpless. He hadn't even finished sorting out Kalos.
He just wanted to chase Giratina for a bit. How did he run into such a big problem again?
He really wanted to pretend he hadn't seen anything... but he happened to be the God of Order.
["After this job I'm going home!"]
Zygarde secretly set a flag. This would absolutely be the last time he dealt with anything outside Kalos.
Then he shook his body and walked toward Xiapi.
Across the Withered Wood Forest, Zygarde let out a majestic proclamation.
["I am Zygarde, God of Order. Mortals may change dynasties, but you may not offend divine authority."]
["Without Arceus's permission, no ordinary creature may become a god."]
["Those who covet godhood shall be punished."]
["Hand over the divine infant and I shall spare your life!"]
Zygarde's words were filled with divine aura and authority.
In simpler words, he was telling this "Axel" trainer that becoming emperor was fine, but he wasn't allowed to create or raise Pokémon of divine level.
If he did, Arceus would strike him down.
When Zygarde finished speaking, a destructive aura burst out from his body, spreading across the entire Xiapi City. All cheering was crushed instantly, and the whole city fell silent.
Diao Chan and the white Gardevoir, being closest, trembled as if bearing a great weight.
This unknown god seemed to be aiming at the two of them.
Hearing Zygarde's voice, Rayquaza froze for a moment.
What creature had come to his territory?
Judging by the aura spreading out, it seemed like Zygarde?
Mewtwo also frowned at the far side of the Withered Wood Forest. The psychic wall in front of the gate dissolved into spoon-shaped form.
If she heard correctly, this thing also came to steal children?
Ho-Oh spread her wings in front of the Gardevoir. Normally gentle, she looked a bit angry now.
Sister Duo raised her, and so what if she got buffed once? What was the big deal?
'This Zygarde thing is really annoying.'
The pink Gardevoir saw that Diao Chan and the white Gardevoir looked unwell. She frowned softly, reached out, and held the white Gardevoir's hand.
She stepped forward and said something Diao Chan would never dare say.
["You want to take us? Pay with your life."]
In both their lives, the Gardevoir had never received divine blessing. They faced every calamity with only their own strength and Axel's strength.
The last thing they feared was gods.
