Monferno had had as good a time fighting just now as it was miserable at this moment.
The Intersected Force of the Way of Dragon God was peaceful.
But its Eight Gates Formation was frenzied.
Every Legendary Pokemon has its own representative concept.
Groudon and Kyogre represent land and ocean, respectively.
Dialga and Palkia represent time and space.
And Zekrom and Reshiram represent Yin and Yang.
That is also why the United Dragon God is revered as the Way of Dragon God, and the United Three Dragons are known as the Three Dragons of the Way.
Therefore, the intersecting power of Yin and Yang of Zekrom and Reshiram has the characteristics of Yin and Yang: unity, opposition, and inter-transformation.
Thus, the Black and White Huge Dragon could perfectly blend the Thunder Flame Power.
But the Flame of Will and the Awakening Electricity of Monferno did not possess the characteristics of Yin and Yang.
They had only form, without essence.
It is no wonder Monferno failed to completely fuse the Thunder Flame Power at The Eighth Gate step.
However, Fang Yuan and his team did not dwell on this failure either.
The intersecting power of Yin and Yang from the Black and White Huge Dragon is the process from frenzy to integration.
But since Monferno was unable to make the Intersected Force peaceful, they pursued an even more frenzied power instead.
They treated their bodies like turbo engines, using the compressed Flame of Will and Awakening Electricity as the power to drive the engines and burning the Lifeline guidance to obtain physical strength beyond limits.
This was the method of Fang Yuan and Monferno, blazing a new trail on the foundation of the Black and White Dragon's Intersected Power.
Of course, whether this path is good or bad is entirely up to the individual's perspective.
Although it temporarily allowed the body's strength to surpass that of the perfectly integrated Intersected Force, the side effects were hundreds or thousands of times worse than those of using the perfect Intersected Force.
Under extreme bursting power, Monferno's body was like an exploding cylinder - this time truly fitting the definition of "Death Gate."
One misstep, and it could truly die.
In just under a minute, Monferno had consumed Life Energy equivalent to wearing a hundred Life Orbs around its neck as prayer beads, using its life to execute moves.
Even if it's said that its full-power outburst was merely equivalent to the plain strikes of primal Groudon and Kyogre, and could not seriously injure the Black and White Huge Dragon, Monferno had reached this level in just a few years since its birth.
This power to suppress High-Level Legendary Pokemon would be nothing but an overwhelming force to the Three Divine Birds of the Orange Archipelago or the Three Sacred Beasts of the Phoenix King Guard within a minute.
As for the price paid for this power...
Monferno suffered the most severe injuries ever, and the energy depletion of the Lifeline guidance could conservatively be equated to a loss of ten years of lifespan.
The lifespan of a Monferno that had reached its Species Limit was only several decades at best.
Fortunately, this is the Pokemon World.
There are many ways to replenish abnormally depleted Life Energy.
For example, the Life Energy Blocks that Fang Yuan and his team were researching could replenish Life Energy.
Like the Fire of Life from Emperor Yan, the god of fire, which could also replenish Life Energy.
The abilities of Mew, Mewtwo, and Celebi could replenish Life Energy, and so could Victini, though the issue was how much it could restore.
For a Legendary Pokemon like Ho-Oh that excels in using Life Power, even resurrecting the dead is not a problem.
Therefore, as long as there is a means of recovery, the Death Gate of Monferno is not a forbidden move, which is why Fang Yuan and his team dared to take this step.
"This..."
Adick and other male Trainers scrambled over, not knowing what to say upon seeing the terribly injured yet conscious Monferno.
Caitlin and Nastina observed Monferno's condition, their expressions extremely grave.
Such serious injuries...
But just now, Monferno's combat power...
Legendary level?
No.
Even ordinary Legendary Level Pokemon cannot describe Monferno's strength just now.
The blow to the Four Heavenly Kings and Champions like Adick was immense.
Fang Yuan's obtaining of Groudon and Kyogre's recognition, capturing Groudon, and Kyogre, could be attributed to good luck on his part; after all, they couldn't imagine how an Ordinary Trainer could subdue Legendary Pokemon like these.
But at this moment, seeing Fang Yuan's Ordinary Elf exhibit High Legendary Level combat power, albeit briefly, it was undeniably proof that Fang Yuan had the ability to battle against Legendary Level Pokemon.
This meant that Fang Yuan truly had the capacity to subdue Legendary Level Pokemon through strength!
Getting recognition from Legendary Pokemon isn't unusual, but personally cultivating Legendary Combat Power...
Everyone looked towards Fang Yuan, who was, in the Pokemon World, the first in a hundred years...
At the same time, they also marveled at Monferno, eager to know what efforts and sacrifices it had to make to achieve such power.
The kind of power that even the United Legendary Dragon finds moving.
[Whether Trainers or Pokemon, they're all crazy.]
[Is it worth paying such a high price for battle?]
Zekrom and Reshiram stared at the tragic Monferno.
It was crazy enough for Fang Yuan to subdue Groudon and Kyogre to battle against them.
And as for Monferno's performance, the two huge dragons didn't know how to evaluate it anymore.
But through the eruption of the Flame of Will and the combat consciousness it demonstrated, they could also get a sense of it.
Monferno had an aspiration to surpass everything and become the strongest.
It also showed the real actions and determination to become the strongest, accepting huge sacrifices, effort, and sweat.
Now, Zekrom and Reshiram felt that perhaps Monferno was more suitable to be the Legendary Hero than Fang Yuan...
