Caleb's body was restrained, but his mind could still function.
He directly used his will to summon Mimikyu's Poké Ball from the inventory, "Mimikyu!"
With a flash of white light, Mimikyu's body materialized out of thin air between him and Mewtwo.
Its Armor Form instantly materialized, delivering an engine-driven strike directly at Mewtwo's left shoulder.
Mewtwo let out a grunt, its attention diverted to Mimikyu. The Telekinesis loosened, and Caleb seized the opportunity to land back on the ground.
The people who hadn't left yet stared wide-eyed at the Mimikyu.
"Oh my god! Is that a Mimikyu?!"
"How does he have a Pokémon…"
No one had time to answer them because the law enforcers of the human continent, the Genesects, which had been stationed outside the window, sensed the energy fluctuations and were already rushing over.
Their speed was extremely fast. Accompanied by strange clicking sounds, they instantly surrounded Mimikyu and Caleb in the blink of an eye, aiming their cannon-like head structures at them.
Mewtwo frowned as it looked at Caleb opposite it.
Although the other party reacted quickly, it had still seen some scattered fragments of his memory... Like Amber, like Team Rocket.
Some not-so-pleasant memories, ones Mewtwo didn't want to recall, automatically surfaced in its mind.
It said coldly: >..You are from Team Rocket..<
After saying this, its eyes grew even colder. An incredibly terrifying psychic energy fluctuation spread out from it in all directions.
The transparent floor-to-ceiling window instantly shattered into pieces, and the entire second floor was left in disarray.
Caleb felt his chest go numb from the shock. Just as he got up from the ground, he saw blue light flash in Mewtwo's eyes again. That was… Psychic!
"Mimikyu!" Caleb shouted.
Mimikyu immediately understood, then turned into a red light and returned to its Poké Ball.
Caleb activated the Warp Beacon.
The next second, the Psychic attack containing terrifying power blasted a large hole in the spot where he had just been standing.
The crowd screamed and scattered in all directions.
Mewtwo floated in mid-air, coldly staring at the empty hole in the floor.
Just then, a golden ring suddenly appeared out of thin air in the atmosphere. A small, pink and gray Pokémon with two horns flew out of it...
…
~Nameless Grassland~
Caleb lay on the grass, gasping for breath...
The development of events had completely exceeded his expectations.
One thing was certain... the Mewtwo of this world had a major misunderstanding about him.
From the sentence "You are from Team Rocket," Caleb could guess which part of his memory Mewtwo had seen. It was apparent that it hadn't seen everything.
If he had to do it again, Caleb would still choose to blast Mewtwo away.
The act of entering someone's brain to read their memories is essentially no different from your best friend forcibly stripping you naked to see your bank card password.
Caleb didn't like this feeling of violation, especially since he didn't know that Mewtwo.
His current focus wasn't on this, however. What he was focusing on was Mewtwo's phrase, "You are from Team Rocket."
The issue was, in this world, both Ash and Team Rocket were merely fictional characters in an Anime. So where did Mewtwo's mention of Team Rocket come from?
That's where the clues ended.
This trip to Sootopolis City not only failed to yield information about 'Above the Clouds and Sky', but it also created a misunderstanding with this world's Mewtwo.
"Holdup..."
Caleb suddenly noticed an even more important point.
If Team Rocket didn't exist in this world, then where did this Mewtwo come from? Could it be that this Mewtwo was the one he once knew, and it had lost its relevant memories due to some special reason?
That wasn't very likely, was it?
Just as Caleb was sitting on the grass thinking seriously, a golden ring quietly appeared above his head and dropped straight down. Before he could react, his entire person was back in the destroyed café...
Besides Mewtwo and the Genesects, there was an additional figure; Hoopa, the small Hoopa in its Confined form.
Mewtwo's cold gaze locked on to Caleb as it asked: >..Why did you follow me here? And you're trying to use that so-called emotion to control me?..<
Caleb was taken aback, frowned, and said, "I think you've misunderstood. I am not from Team Rocket, and I don't know what you're talking about either."
Upon hearing this, Mewtwo fell silent for a moment, its tone paranoid: >..I saw it..<
Caleb immediately realized what it was referring to and was about to explain, but Mewtwo didn't give him another chance to speak.
A layer of intense blue light emerged from its body. Its toes slowly left the ground as it floated into the air.
A terrifying, invisible energy swirled in the air at high speed, compressing and condensing.
'F*ck!'
Caleb cursed inwardly and directly activated the Warp Beacon, teleporting back to the Nameless Grassland.
But soon, Hoopa's golden ring appeared before him again out of thin air and, with lightning speed, brought him back to Sootopolis City.
Mewtwo looked over with a gloomy gaze and said: >..You can't escape..<
*Hum!*
After saying this, a strong blue light surged from its eyes. This time, learning from the previous two attempts, it directly used Telekinesis to restrain Caleb's body, preventing him from moving.
However, the Warp Beacon didn't require manual operation from Caleb. Just before Mewtwo's attack landed, his figure vanished from the spot once again...
…
~Nameless Grassland~
Before Caleb could even sigh in relief, Hoopa's golden ring appeared again. Hoopa's figure was the first to fly out of it...
Mewtwo, brimming with terrifying psychic power, followed closely behind.
'Dammit! I haven't even done anything! Why is it pursuing me so relentlessly?' Caleb was getting angry.
He directly abandoned his plan of continuing his disgraceful attempt to flee. His right hand pulled out five red and white Poké Balls from thin-air.
With flashes of dazzling white light, Mimikyu, Dragonite, Lucario, Hydreigon, and Celebi simultaneously appeared before him.
"Hoopa!" The small Hoopa in its Confined form saw this and revealed a mischievous grin, as if enjoying the spectacle, clapping its little hands together.
"Hmph!" Mewtwo snorted coldly.
Blue light flashed in its eyes, and immediately, a terrifying psychic aura surged and spread out in all directions.
A faint green glow emanated from Caleb's body. The upgraded Viridian Power instantly connected to all five of his Pokémon.
"Mimikyu, stack Swords Dance to the max! Dragonite, Hurricane! Hydreigon, Dark Pulse! Celebi, Trick Room! Lucario, Aura Sphere!" Caleb's will moved, and the relevant commands were transmitted into the minds of all the Pokémon.
The five Pokémon immediately sprang into action, charging towards Mewtwo from different angles and directions.
Hoopa, which was in the air, saw this... Then a fun idea suddenly popped into its head.
It mischievously controlled its golden ring, making it hover in the air.
Under Hoopa's manipulation, the ring slowly enlarged, and the distorted space within it began to tremble violently.
Immediately after, various figures of different shapes and sizes poured out of it like beans being spilled from a bag.
