—------------------—
However, no matter how Primal Groudon called out, Giovanni wasn't there, so it was useless.
Primal Kyogre felt regretful that there were no lakes or oceans here, otherwise, it would have made Primal Groudon enjoy a 'pregnant belly' again.
Of course, the most regrettable thing was that before Primal Kyogre could even charge down, Primal Groudon lowered its head, dug into the sand, and burrowed underground.
Yes, Primal Groudon ran away.
"Boring."
Dragon God Kyurem sneered, and flames and lightning lit up on its body, with two light orbs flying out.
The light orbs transformed back into Reshiram and Zekrom, and Dragon God Kyurem also reverted to its Kyurem form.
As soon as Reshiram appeared, it immediately flew back behind Yveltal.
"Thank you so much this time, Kyurem."
Mammon ignored Reshiram and smiled gratefully to Kyurem.
"I wasn't helping you; I was just bored and my hands were itching."
Kyurem's golden dragon eyes glanced at Mammon, and it replied with a low, hoarse telepathic message.
"Yes, yes, yes, but no matter what, you helped me this time, and I owe you a favor."
Mammon's smile deepened; tsundere? Interesting.
"Hmph~ Meaningless, send me back." Kyurem said indifferently.
It was too lazy to fly back to Giant Chasm itself; how long would that take?
"Alright, but what about our previous agreement?"
Mammon nodded; he liked Kyurem more and more. It could really fight!
Hoopa Unbound was very observant, and a golden ring expanded and flew out.
"I'll wait for you at Giant Chasm."
Kyurem's tone remained calm. After leaving this message, it burrowed into the spatial golden ring and returned to Giant Chasm.
Looking at the familiar glacial canyon, Kyurem quietly lay down to rest, but the exhilarating battle scene just now still couldn't help but resurface in its mind.
This was the first time it had fought for someone else, and for Kyurem, it was a completely new experience.
Actually, it was still a bit interesting, wasn't it?
Over on the desert side.
"Human, don't just focus on Kyurem. When do you plan to fulfill your agreement with me?"
Black Rayquaza lowered its head slightly and spoke to Mammon.
Super Rayquaza was beside Black Rayquaza, curiously looking at Mammon.
It had actually heard Black Rayquaza mention this human before, and Green was still with him.
"Oh? Rayquaza, you said last time that I should first find a way to capture Kyurem." Mammon's smile was very deep.
"Ah~ But I think you can also come to me first."
Black Rayquaza replied very naturally.
In reality, it had already determined that Kyurem had a cheat!
By 'eating' Reshiram and Zekrom, it could transform into Dragon God Kyurem form, and its combat power in this form was simply too formidable.
"I'd rather fight Giratina."
Black Rayquaza stated its demand. Hmm, it didn't want to fight Dragon God Kyurem, as they had already fought once.
"Alright, I'll come find you once I'm prepared."
Mammon found it amusing.
Now that Hoopa was here, he was indeed planning to find a time to capture Black Rayquaza and Kyurem first.
After all, with Giratina in hand, it was not impossible to solo defeat both of them, especially Kyurem.
Without absorbing White Dragon or Black Dragon, Giratina would have no problem defeating Kyurem.
But once it was in his hands, Kyurem could become Dragon God Kyurem!
"It's a deal."
Black Rayquaza was very straightforward. It currently had a really good impression of this human.
After all, they had fought side by side twice, and Black Rayquaza had to admit that this human was very interesting.
"Do you need me to have Hoopa send you back?"
"No need. For us Rayquaza, the sky is our home."
Black Rayquaza refused and flew into the sky with Super Rayquaza, gradually disappearing into the horizon.
And then…
"Why are you looking at me like that, Ho-Oh?"
Mammon looked at Ho-Oh, who was glaring at him, and spread his hands innocently.
"Human, the three things I promised you are done!"
Ho-Oh said through gritted teeth.
"Indeed, you truly are Ho-Oh. Your help has been invaluable throughout my journey."
Mammon exclaimed with genuine emotion.
However, Ho-Oh merely stared at Mammon with a blank expression.
"What's wrong?"
"Give me back my stuff!"
"What stuff?" Mammon asked, confused.
Seeing this inherently evil human still playing dumb, Ho-Oh angrily said,
"My feathers! Give me back my feathers!"
Ho-Oh was furious, especially seeing Jirachi and Victini, who had just finished collecting feathers and returned behind Mammon.
These two skillfully hid behind Mammon.
"No, Ho-Oh, you're being a bit stingy, aren't you? These feathers are all defective; you still want them back?"
Mammon couldn't help but click his tongue.
"What use are those feathers to me? Give me back that special feather you gave me initially!"
Ho-Oh's voice grew louder. That was one of the most essential feathers from its wings; holding that feather allowed one to contact it anytime, anywhere.
Ho-Oh naturally didn't care much about those ordinary feathers, although it was very angry that Jirachi and the other one collected the feathers scattered during the battle right in front of it.
But Ho-Oh couldn't possibly ask for them back. However, that special rainbow feather was different.
"You mean that one? I gave that one away."
Mammon raised an eyebrow, feigning sudden realization.
"You...!"
If it didn't have fists, Ho-Oh would definitely be clenching them right now.
It carefully sensed and found that the aura of that rainbow feather was indeed gone from Mammon's body.
This shameless human!!
Ho-Oh said nothing, merely turning to fly away. Damn it! How dare he give my feather to someone else without this bird's permission?
Ho-Oh was very displeased, but at the same time, it finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It was finally free!
"Wait."
"I'm done with you, human!"
Ho-Oh turned its head back, vigilant.
"Of course. It's like this, Ho-Oh, we've fought side by side three times as comrades, and now that we're parting ways, don't you think we should have a memento?"
"No, I don't want any memories with you." Ho-Oh replied with a smile.
"Don't be so cold. Think back to when you fought alongside me against Black Rayquaza and Dragon God Kyurem—that scene is still vivid in my mind, Ho-Oh."
"..."
Are you reminiscing about how I got beaten by them?
Ho-Oh's face was cold.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Ho-Oh grew impatient.
"Leave a memento for me. We're comrades, after all. Just one feather will do."
"???"
Ho-Oh finally laughed in anger.
"Human, look behind you at those two things. How many of my feathers are they holding?"
"These are all defective, you know. I still need to use them for medicine. Give me a complete, beautiful one, and I'll put it in an exhibition cabinet for collection."
Mammon said very seriously.
He couldn't help it; the special feather Ho-Oh had given him before, he had given to Akari.
"You're dreaming! Get lost, you bastard!"
Ho-Oh finally couldn't hold back, angrily cursing at a certain person, muttering incessantly.
"To have met you, I must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck. I've helped you three times, and I've almost shed all my feathers. Now you still want my feathers? Don't even think about it, goodbye."
The more it thought about it, the angrier it got. Every time it helped, it was subjected to a brutal beating, dropping a pile of feathers each time. After these three times,
Ho-Oh truly felt that its feathers had almost completely regrown. And this human was still coveting its feathers? Is this even a human?
After cursing, Ho-Oh was ready to run. This human was really wishing for the impossible.
"I know, Ho-Oh, you're just playing hard to get."
Mammon sighed.
Ho-Oh: "??"
Suddenly, Ho-Oh's wing felt an itch. It turned its head and saw a small hand reaching out from a spatial golden ring, holding a bright and beautiful iridescent feather.
"Hoopa!!!"
Ho-Oh roared.
"Hehe~" Hoopa, who had unknowingly reverted to its Unbound form, stuck out its tongue, quickly withdrew its arm, and floated beside Mammon.
"Thank you for the feather, Ho-Oh. I knew you couldn't forget our comradeship. I'll cherish it for life."
Mammon held the rainbow feather that Hoopa had pulled out, his words sincere.
"???"
Ho-Oh once again laughed in anger. Was that given by me? You snatched that, you bastard!
"Human, never again!!"
Ho-Oh completely refused to say anything more to this shameless human and left without looking back.
"Wait, Ho-Oh, one more thing…"
However, Ho-Oh ignored him, merely accelerating.
Seeing this, Mammon was a bit helpless.
"Ho-Oh seems to dislike you very much, Mammon." Hoopa tilted its head.
"I wanted to remind it that if it encounters danger, it can call me, but this big turkey has too deep a prejudice against me."
Mammon shrugged. After all, he had taken a brand new, beautiful feather from it, and Mammon was planning to reciprocate.
But this colorful big turkey ignored him.
"Prejudice in people's hearts is a big mountain. I didn't expect Ho-Oh to misunderstand me like this too. It's truly saddening."
Mammon put the rainbow feather into his backpack and sighed thus.
"I think its prejudice against you seems to be perfectly fine." Hoopa blinked.
Just now, Mammon had told it to secretly pull out Ho-Oh's beautiful feathers, and if it wasn't discovered, to pull out a few more.
"Hoopa, if you say that, I'll be unhappy." Mammon glared sideways at Hoopa.
Hoopa covered its mouth and chuckled.
"And then… Little turtle, is there something you need?"
Mammon looked at the beautiful turtle Terapagos in front of him, revealing a friendly smile.
"You're very interesting, can I temporarily follow you, human?"
A flash of light appeared on Terapagos, and it transformed into its small, ordinary form, flying in front of Mammon and speaking with a clear, childlike telepathic voice.
Well, after coming out, Terapagos didn't really want to go back.
"Oh, my~ Little turtle, you have excellent taste, much better than that big turkey."
Mammon's eyes lit up, and he chuckled as he gently rubbed the little turtle's small head.
"Because you are indeed very interesting." Terapagos blinked, looking very cute.
It truly found Mammon very interesting, and the aura around him also made the innocent Terapagos feel very comfortable.
That's right, Terapagos was actually very pure, because it had never left Area Zero and had basically been sleeping in the deepest part of Area Zero.
Now that Evil Hoopa had pulled it out into the outside world, Terapagos decided to follow this human and get a good look at the outside world.
Mammon was delighted about this. He was not stingy at all and took out some Pokémon snacks from his bag.
Terapagos had never seen these before. After tentatively tasting one, it couldn't stop.
"Not bad, not bad. I don't even have to ask, and Terapagos is already taken."
Mammon was very satisfied. 'Terastal Source' Terapagos, this was the Third Deity of Paldea Region!
Moreover, in the recent battle, Stellar Tera Terapagos's combat power was also very strong; it could both act cute and fight!
Most importantly, with Terapagos, as long as its time-travel ability could be activated normally, he could return to the Hisui era at any time.
After all, showing photos and videos to Platinum was not as real as seeing it in person.
'Platinum, I'll take you to see our daughter.'
Mammon felt that this sentence would probably make Platinum crash for a very, very long time.
But if it were himself, he would probably really crash.
What the heck, sixteen-year-old me has a sixteen-year-old daughter?
At the same time, on the other side.
"Giovanni, you're too far away."
Groudon had already exited its Primal Reversion form and stood by the sea, sadly looking at the boundless horizon.
Groudon could faintly sense Giovanni's location, but the problem was, it was too far!
How long would it take to walk back to Giovanni's side?
Damn Hoopa! Damn Fathead Fish!
Pain, so much pain!
Groudon embarked on its journey home, step by step.
