"I understand." Asamoji silently picked up a reasonably intact stool and sat down. "So, what should we do next to fix this?"

Seeing that Asamogi had finally returned to normal, Hei Yao said, "Based on the current situation, it's highly likely that the League's group of legendary Pokémon didn't kill Zacian and Dark Lugia after defeating them."

“This means they’re thinking about whether they can rescue Zacian and Dark Lugia.” Asamoji, now back to normal, quickly continued the line of thought from Obsidian.

“That’s right!” Obsidian nodded. “Dark Lugia doesn’t know, but according to the information we got from Eterna, if we want to remove the divine power from Zacian’s body, we need to ask a super legendary Pokémon of the corresponding attribute for help.”

"Poison-type divine power is alright, but the remaining dragon-type divine power is not so easy to deal with." Obsidian showed a disdainful expression. "There are no fairy-type legendary Pokémon in the Pokémon League right now, so to eliminate those dragon-type divine powers, we will definitely need a dragon-type legendary Pokémon."

"And the only option in the Pokémon League is Palkia!"

Asamoji's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "In other words, in order to save Zacian, that Pokémon named Regigigas is very likely to go to the Western League to find Palkia!"

"But," Hei Yao's lips curled up slightly.

Asamoji quickly chimed in, "But Zacian is a Fairy-type Divine Pokémon; Dragon-type divine power simply can't penetrate her body!"

This is why the Supreme Council sent Zachuang instead of Zamarant in this operation.

Although the High Council did not initially believe that this perfect operation would fail, years of caution ultimately led them to choose Zacian.

Otherwise, if we replaced Zamazenta with her, as long as we cleared the divine power from Eterna within her, wouldn't the Pokémon League have gained another great general?

"And what's next?" Asamoji asked curiously.

"Mayan Alliance, Phoenix King!" Obsidian slowly uttered these words.

"That's right!" Asamoji stood up abruptly. "In order to save Zacian, those legendary Pokémon will most likely gather together. As long as we can hold off Palkia's support, Ho-Oh, which is currently alone in the Mayan League, will be easy prey!"

Looking at the excited Asamoji, Obsidian was in a good mood: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As for Zekrom, let our partners deal with him. I'm sure they'll be pleasantly surprised when they see their old friends again."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Asamoji suddenly burst into laughter, "They definitely will!"

"I'll go tell Charles right away, I want to come and see this good show too!"

Watching Asamoji's departing figure, Obsidian felt that something was amiss.

"What's wrong with me? Have the repeated failures made me too sensitive?" Hei Yao gently rubbed his temples.

However, years of caution eventually made Obsidian take this feeling seriously, so after a brief moment of thought, he finally made up his mind: "Fine, just to be on the safe side, I'll bleed a little."

Obsidian stood up and went to contact his other ally, Ultra Beast.

Chapter 721 SSR

Time flies like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for Jiang Hai and the others to return.

The disaster in Japan has now largely passed, and it's time for the rescue workers to complete their mission and go home.

The rest of the rescue team had already left, except for a small group from the Elf Alliance who stayed to monitor the post-disaster work. Jiang Hai and Chu Xing were the last group to leave.

After a brief farewell to Suzuki Yuriko, and a three-hour flight, Jiang Hai finally returned to the coastal area.

As for Regirock, once her mission was complete, Xu Yuntao took her back with him on the way.

Jiang Hai simply had Metagross use Teleport to send him home.

As soon as Jiang Hai arrived at his doorstep, before he could even catch his breath, he saw Duo Duo rush out of the house and hug him tightly.

"Alright, alright, I'm back now."

Jiang Hai gently patted Duo Duo's body, offering tender words of comfort.

"woooooo"

Duoduo burst into tears.

"Jiang Hai, I was so worried about you. I heard on the news that there was another major earthquake there, and I was so afraid that something might have happened to you."

Later, Duoduo's voice became so choked that she could barely speak.

Seeing this, Jiang Hai could only continue to comfort him, "What are you worrying about, you silly girl? Don't you know what kind of strength your brothers have? What is a mere earthquake to me!"

After finally calming Duoduo down, Jiang Hai entered the house.

Chinese tradition dictates that one should eat dumplings before getting off a horse and noodles upon returning home. Therefore, when Jiang Hai returned this time, Duoduo did not prepare a lavish banquet for him. Instead, she specially prepared several types of noodles with different textures and different sauces.

It's rare to have a good meal, so Jiang Hai slurped down several large bowls of noodles.

While in the disaster area, although a large amount of supplies were transferred from outside, the conditions were definitely not comparable to those at home.

After eating and drinking his fill, Jiang Hai, having nothing else to do, went to the back garden to take a walk and see how many cells the Zygarde "core" had divided into.

However, before he had taken two steps, he heard a soft, surprised voice: "Oh! Jiang Hai, you're back!"

The butterfly fly flew over and splashed Jiang Hai's face, rubbing its cheek against his.

"Jiang Hai, I miss you so much."

Jiang Hai grabbed the butterfly fly by its wings and pulled it off his face, teasing it gently with his fingers: "You little rascal, I told you not to be so reckless!"

"Hehe," the butterfly-knotted buddy chuckled foolishly.

Well, judging from this person's expression, Jiang Hai knew that he hadn't heard a word of what he just said.

After the two continued playing around for a while, Butterfly suddenly remembered something and abruptly stood up from Jiang Hai's arms: "Oh right, Jiang Hai, I have something really amazing to tell you!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hai quickly cooperated by showing a curious expression.

Seeing this, Butterfly was quite satisfied and said excitedly, "Let me tell you, a few days ago when I went to find Little Soft, I suddenly found that it had turned into two! How amazing!"

Perhaps it's due to the will of the world, but Choki also gave Zygarde's "core" a soft, squishy name.

Of course, it could also be because the appearance of Zygarde's "core" and the "little softie" are a perfect match.

However, Jiang Hai didn't take these words to heart. He just assumed that the Butterfly happened to see the cell dividing in Zygarde's "core". After all, the difference between the "core" and the "cell" is not very obvious at first glance.

Furthermore, the lush green camouflage of Zygarde's "core" and "cells" against the backdrop of the backyard lawn creates an exceptionally effective effect.

But when Jiang Hai followed the Butterfly to find the two Zygarde "cores", he realized that the Joker was actually himself.

That's right, they are two identical Zygarde "cores", the only difference being the hexagonal mark on their chests.

One was purple, the one Jiang Hai knew before; the other was blue, and it seemed to be new.

"Zygard, can you split off a core?" Having played too many gacha games in his previous life, Jiang Hai was somewhat suspicious that Zygard's "core" might have produced an SSR when it split off.

“Of course not!” Zygarde explained calmly, “My core count is only replenished when it is depleted.”

Seeing Zygarde's serious expression, Jiang Hai didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, at this moment, Zygarde "Core Blue" stepped in to smooth things over: "You must be Jiang Hai. Thank you for your help."

Although the consciousness of the Zygarde "cores" in their split state is independent, the cells they split off are inseparable, so it's not wrong for the Zygarde "core blue" to say that it "helps us".

"Not at all, it was just a small favor," Jiang Hai said with a modest smile.

During the conversation, Jiang Hai learned that the reason why Zygarde "Core Blue" came to find Zygarde "Core Purple" was that she suddenly discovered that the number of cells she could sense was increasing rapidly, so out of curiosity, she combined them into a form of 50 to find another core.

“I discovered a new core in this world a while ago, but we were too far apart to come over. This time, it gave me a reason,” Zygarde “Core Blue” explained.

"So what are your plans next?" Jiang Hai asked casually.

“I plan to stay here for a few more days; it’s been a long time since we last met,” said Zygarde “Core Blue.”

“Indeed, this is the first time I’ve seen another core since I went into slumber due to severe injuries,” Zygard “Core Purple” echoed.

"That would be wonderful to welcome you," Jiang Hai replied immediately. "Please feel free to stay here for the time being, and if you need anything, just come and find me."

Seeing the resentful look in Butterfly's eyes, Jiang Hai quickly added, "Or you can ask Butterfly; it has a certain say in our family too."

Upon hearing this, Butterfly's expression softened somewhat.

Then, Butterfly flashed to the two Zygarde "Cores" and hugged them: "Did you hear that? If you need anything in the future, come to me, the big sister. Don't be shy, Little Softie!"

“Okay, Big Sister, I understand!” Zygarde “Core Purple” replied with a smile, leaving Zygarde “Core Blue” beside her stunned. In the end, she could only follow suit and call her Big Sister.

Seeing Zygarde "Core Purple's" happy smile, Zygarde "Core Blue" knew that her partner must be thinking of that little girl.

Chapter 722 The War of Gods is About to Begin

Life went on uneventfully, and Jiang Hai finally got to experience the ultimate bliss of being a complete slacker.

Now that no one in the family can control him and Duoduo spoils him, Jiang Hai has practically become the Jiang family's little devil during this period. Every day, apart from eating, drinking, and relieving himself, he just lies in bed or on the sofa playing on his phone.

In the evenings, after Gong Ling finished her classes, she would chat on the phone for two hours. Life was so comfortable.

Meanwhile, Jiang Hai also leveled up several Pokémon to level 100 in the game during this period, successfully clearing the three areas of Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh in the Phantom Tower.

Next, all he needs to do is wait for him to win victories in Unova and Neo-Unova, and he will be able to obtain the last important path in Black and White, the Celestial Flute.

In the game, players can use this item to summon Arceus, the creator god, fight against him, and subdue him. After that, the game is basically considered completely completed.

Although there are still game contents such as hatching eggs to continue playing, those belong to the realm of hardcore players and have little to do with Jiang Hai, an ordinary player.

"I wonder if there will be any special changes after I obtain Arceus's divine power?" He thought to himself as he lay on the sofa with his eyes closed.

Although the game developer has already stated that it will no longer impose any restrictions on players, Jiang Hai, who has already developed PTSD from being tricked, is not going to easily change his mind.

"Forget it, why think so much? I should take advantage of the time I have now and get my hands on the Celestial Flute first!" With this thought in mind, Jiang Hai slowly drifted off to sleep on the sofa.

Mayan Alliance.

Phoenix King is resting in the temporary divine realm.

Although the Pokémon League had already informed all its citizens of the existence of the legendary Pokémon, the two groups were not from the same species, so Ho-Oh chose this method to prevent any unnecessary trouble.

A while ago, after Ho-Oh told Lugia the information he got from Jiang Hai, he never expected what would happen next. Even the well-informed Lugia had to exclaim, "I've never seen anything like this before!"

After carefully listening to the information that Lugia had compiled, Ho-Oh suddenly came up with a name that it couldn't avoid: Jiang Hai.

Ho-Oh was somewhat surprised to discover that if it weren't for Jiang Hai's crucial role as a link in the various events that occurred in Dongying Province, the Supreme Council's conspiracy might have succeeded, and the Elf Alliance would have been completely passive.

Although Ho-Oh could shamelessly ask the three legendary sea, land, and air gods for help, that is nothing compared to the fact that the Pokémon League now has complete control and advantage!

This reminded Phoenix King of something else: before leaving the Yangzhuo Alliance, when he was about to thank the Rock Lord for his great help in the chaos, he found that the Rock Lord had somehow damaged his essence!

After the Phoenix King pressed for details and learned the whole story, he realized that Jiang Hai had played such an indelible role in this incident.

Before that, Ho-Oh had already heard of Jiang Hai's name from Mewtwo and Diancie.

To be honest, Ho-Oh already found that somewhat unbelievable.

I only noticed Jiang Hai because of his unusual behavior, but I never expected him to give me such a big surprise.
