Within the Alliance, Wan Long was also preparing to set out, but just before she did, she suddenly furrowed her brows—a bad premonition had struck her.
The Plasma Team wouldn't attack Castelia City without any preparations, nor would they do so without reason.
They must be plotting something.
Their previous target was Zekrom, but what was their target this time?
Wan Long suddenly felt uneasy and grabbed her phone, quickly finding a number.
Fang Yuan.
No matter what, since the Plasma Team's past targets, Zekrom and Reshiram, were with Fang Yuan, she had to warn him.
......
At the same time.
Castelia City.
A burly figure was resisting the enemies in front of him alongside the Red-faced Dragon and the Double-axe Battle Dragon.
The mayor of Castelia City and Gym Leader Xaka, descending from the Dao's Three Dragon Clan, looked at the elder before him with grave anger.
Opposite him stood an elderly man wearing a purple padded coat and a long purple hat, exhaling cold air in the dim light.
"Lord Vio!"
"We didn't find the target!"
At that moment, a figure, as stealthy as a ninja, appeared behind Vio.
"Is that so."
Wise Man Vio of the Seven Sages looked at Xaka before him, his expression revealing impatience.
"What exactly is the purpose of your Plasma Team?" Xaka demanded angrily.
As he spoke, the sounds of explosions "Boom," "Boom," "Boom" could be heard continuously nearby.
Huge plumes of smoke and fireballs rose from various parts of Castelia City, and within mere minutes, the city had descended into complete chaos.
All available security forces in Castelia City were fully engaged in combat with members of the Plasma Team who had infiltrated the city.
And Xaka had been confronted by Vio, one of the Plasma Team's Seven Wise Men.
At his side, he had only two Pokemon; the rest he had sent to protect key facilities around the city.
Although he was accompanied by only two fighting spirits, Xaka remained fearless before any enemy, yet, clearly, the opposition was not merely seeking battle.
"Since we haven't found it, let's skip the nonsense."
"Xaka, hand over the Wedge of Gene."
The Wedge of Gene?!>
Xaka's pupils shrank as he looked at the old man before him—was the Plasma Team after the Wedge of Gene in his custody?
And their purpose for seeking the Wedge of Gene was...
"Kyurem?!" Xaka said in a low voice.
"You got it right." Vio said with a smile, pointing to the sky.
"Of course, I know you won't hand it over that easily."
"But look, do you see that?"
"The choice is yours now, as the mayor of Castelia City. The life of the entire city as funeral offerings, or the Wedge of Gene."
Above Castelia City, a massive warship passed by, hovering high over the city center, overlooking everything.
As Vio finished speaking, in the Plasma Destroyer, the scientist Akroma, looking at the huge beast Kyurem sleeping in the suppression fluid, adjusted his reflective glasses.
"Kyurem, let me unearth the potential hidden within you."
Boom!
The sky above Castelia City was enveloped in a chilling cold.
Xaka abruptly looked up at the colossal Plasma Destroyer.
At the heart of the warship, a cannon charged with glacial blue light was aimed straight at the ground.
"You—"
Before Xaka could finish speaking, a "bang" sounded as Kyurem's Cannon fired.
The huge city of Castelia City, with its population of millions and towering skyscrapers in the Unova region, was instantly turned into a Frozen World.
Not a single structure escaped the fate of being frozen, and the whole of Castelia City became a frozen work of art.
Countless people who were frantically fleeing were frozen in place, completely immobilized, their breaths vaporous, eyes vacant.
Only members of the Plasma Team, wearing special cold weather gear, were still able to move about for the time being.
Vio looked at Xaka, whose body was frosted white, his expression somewhat stiff and angry, and at the Dragon Type Fairy/Eelf before him, full of icy Rage and roaring furiously, "This is just a warning. Although Castelia City has been frozen, no one will die because of it. But, if you don't hand over the Wedge of Gene, the power of the next blast will be able to freeze life itself."
"Indeed... only the cold can make people appreciate the meaning of being alive."
The single cannon blast from the Plasma Team using Kyurem as an energy source froze the entirety of Castelia City in an instant, turning the entire city into a scene of harsh winter.
The rampaging snowflakes drifted down one after another, icy winds howled through in gusts, and the air was filled with cold and dryness.
