"Gardevoir, try again, see if Psychic Sync can work together with the power of imagination and release it."
"Gar~", Gardevoir let out a soft hum, starting to think in her mind about finding the Ultra Wormhole passage.
Once that thought took root in her mind, the overwhelming psychic power all turned into the power of the mind, covering the entire field.
The fear or shock in those people's eyes gradually disappeared, and the other thoughts in their hearts grew weaker and weaker.
In the end, there was only one thought left in the minds of everyone from the Aether Foundation.
[Find the passage and overthrow the Aether Foundation!]
They looked at each other in confusion, then their eyes slowly became firm.
The man who was confronting Professor Rowan inside the dome walked out without hesitation, dropping to his knees with a thud in Axel's direction.
"Master, we will die for you without hesitation. We will definitely crush the Aether Foundation's conspiracy!"
Zaci blinked, the urge to compete rising in his heart again.
'Damn, I don't know why, but it feels like someone beat me to it?'
He hurriedly knelt on the ground as well, shouting the same thing.
"Die for the master without hesitation, find the Ultra Wormhole passage!"
The people from the Rowan Research Lab had also been stunned at first, but after Rowan walked out and gently nodded toward Axel, everyone finally reacted.
In this battle, they had already won, and the victory was absolute.
Aside from the man confronting Professor Rowan inside the dome, even the others were affected by Gardevoir's overwhelming psychic domain.
They even completely defected from the Aether Foundation and fully turned to the light.
Infernape scooped up Flint in a princess carry, shouting like a madman about how amazing Axel was.
Lucian immediately grabbed his communicator to report the situation to Cynthia.
Berlitz also smiled with satisfaction at Axel, taking out her phone and dialing a certain number.
"Housekeeper, prepare the young lady's dowry early."
———
While the field was in chaos, a white flash suddenly appeared in the research lab's camera feed.
Far away in the Alola region, inside a certain room in Aether Paradise, Lusamine stared anxiously and uncertainly at the image on the screen, not even caring that her beloved hair had swayed down onto the floor.
Everything that just happened at the venue, she had seen with her own eyes.
She couldn't believe why the subordinates she trained with her own hands would turn to the enemy so easily, even Nihilego was like this.
Lusamine clenched her teeth, her hands gripping the computer screen tightly, her fingers turning pale, her voice becoming hoarse.
""Damn Nihilego, I trusted you so much, I even felt you were the most beautiful Pokémon."
"But how could you betray me!"
"Hurry, move, help me kill him, help me kill them!"
Unfortunately, Nihilego was far away in another region and couldn't hear a single word Lusamine was saying.
By the time Lusamine calmed down from her rage, she had been screaming for a long time. Her face was as pale as paper, and even her chest was heaving violently.
"Someone, start Plan B, use the tissue from Cosmog to open a chaotic passage."
"At the very least, we must bring some Ultra Beasts through."
"Even if Alola falls into destruction because of it, it is worth it!"
———
In the Sinnoh League, as the crowd cheered, the door of the boiler room quietly opened.
Faba cautiously poked out his head, ordered a Pokémon to precisely destroy a few cameras, then hunched out of the room and stopped by Axel's side.
"Sir, now is not the time to celebrate, the Aether Foundation still has a Plan B."
Axel patted Gardevoir, signaling her to release her Fairy Queen form and rest a little.
Then he looked at Faba, speaking with interest.
"Is it the Aether Foundation that has a Plan B, or is it you that has a Plan B?"
Faba's mouth twitched, and he fell to his knees with a thud.
"Master, I'm sorry, I just lied. It was the old me that had a Plan B!"
Fear spread completely inside Faba's heart. As a man with a firm will, he knew very clearly that he had been brainwashed.
Actually, it wasn't a big deal. He even felt that the old him was too much of a scumbag.
He had manipulated Lusamine, turning her from someone who truly loved Pokémon into someone slowly becoming obsessive.
And after contacting the Ultra Wormhole, Faba had even wanted to use those Pokémon's power to rule the world.
Thinking about it now, Faba felt he really was human trash.
What really terrified Faba was that clearly no one knew about this. In everyone's eyes, he was only Lusamine's subordinate.
But Axel actually knew he was the mastermind behind the scenes.
This shook Faba more than Gardevoir overturning his worldview.
["Master... he seems convinced..."]
Gardevoir's telepathy arrived at the perfect moment. Axel gave a slight nod and looked calmly at Faba.
"Tell me your plan."
"Yes, sir!", Faba kept his kneeling posture and revealed everything about his Plan B.
"We originally planned to further strengthen Nihilego's psychic power, communicate with Necrozma, and reopen the Ultra Wormhole's sealed passage."
"If that worked, the passage would definitely connect to Ultra Megalopolis."
"But just in case, we were afraid we couldn't steal Professor Rowan's research results here."
"So we prepared beforehand. If the theft failed, we would use the tissue from Cosmog to simulate a mysterious energy and open the Ultra Wormhole's gate."
"Then we would sneak into the Ultra Wormhole and find Ultra Megalopolis somehow in that world."
Axel nodded, "So now that I brought Nihilego over, the outcome no longer matters. The Aether Foundation has already started Plan B?"
Faba glanced at Axel, shrinking his neck as he nodded in fear.
Axel took a deep breath and released Gyarados.
"Let's go, to the Alola region!"
In the entire world, no one understood better than Axel how disastrous the arrival of Ultra Beasts could be.
Ordinary Pokémon were no match for Ultra Beasts at all.
"Faba, pray no one gets hurt when the Ultra Beasts arrive."
"Even if one person dies, you will pay for it with your life!"
The Aether Foundation's Nihilego and the others also began acting, following Axel with their Pokémon.
Watching Axel and the others leave, Faba's legs went weak and he collapsed completely onto the ground.
He knew very well how terrifying Ultra Beasts were to the Pokémon of this world.
This time, he was almost certainly doomed.
At the same time, some footage from the live broadcast spread online, immediately causing an uproar.
