Chapter 410: The Late Swords of Justice
"Humans have good and bad; those who set fire to Moor of Icirrus are humans, but those who risk their lives to implement rescue activities and extinguish fire at this moment are also humans."
Will pointed to the direction he came from, where the sound of fighting had gradually subsided,
"I can understand your distrust of humans now, but don't you trust me, who is also a Pokémon?"
Hearing this, Darmanitan looked at Will seriously.
Then turned around, pulling Zorua and two Woobat together to discuss.
Then asked N's own opinion again.
N indicated as long as he could be with Darmanitan and others, he could go anywhere.
And.
If he could go see the outside world.
Also quite good.
N is quite curious about the world outside Moor of Icirrus.
"...Darumaka."
After some discussion, Darmanitan and others decided to trust Will, "Then you wait for me here first; I have to go back to see the situation over there, then I will come to pick you up."
Will wasn't surprised by this.
He knew.
Even if Darmanitan and others don't trust humans, don't trust Will.
They will definitely consider N's situation, and the situation of these Pokémon in Moor of Icirrus.
They certainly don't want to bring disasters like today's fire to everyone again because of N.
So they will definitely choose to leave in the end.
At most not following Will, running to human society to live.
"N, see you later."
After negotiating with Darmanitan, Will reached out and patted N's head.
Then.
Samurott saw Will intending to leave, actively went into the water to carry him,
"Thank you."
Will smiled and reached out to stroke his neck, stepping onto Samurott's back again; the cool dark blue skin felt very good.
"Oshawott."
Samurott smiled, carrying him moving in the water.
Approaching the shore.
Will opened the Aura barrier and crashed into the sea of fire; turning on Extreme Speed, he returned to the battlefield just now in more than ten seconds.
However, what surprised Will was that the battle was not over yet.
Cynthia and others' enemies changed a batch!
The dozen people from Team Plasma had all been arrested; their Poké Balls were all confiscated.
Standing opposite replacing them.
Were actually the Swords of Justice!
Keldeo, whom Will originally wondered where he went, was exactly among them.
Just the current Keldeo looked obviously still very immature.
Because haven't learned Secret Sword, his form hasn't changed yet; the single horn on the forehead hasn't turned into a slender blue blade.
"So it's like this..."
Will saw these late Swords of Justice.
Understood what happened instantly.
He thought wrong from the beginning.
Team Plasma's target was not Keldeo, but N.
Keldeo and the three Sacred Swords didn't hide in Moor of Icirrus to cultivate, just saw the fire here or met fleeing Pokémon, so rushed over hurriedly to save the scene.
The rushing Swords of Justice might have learned from fleeing Pokémon that humans set the fire.
So at this time, the hostility towards Cynthia and her group was quite large.
One by one looking at them with eyes full of resentment.
Swords of Justice are different from Meloetta.
Their fame is still very big in this Unova region, even bigger than Black and White Dragons and Victini.
Not because they are strong.
But because they have a high appearance rate; many humans have seen them with their own eyes.
Black and White Dragons, Victini, Meloetta...
These are Pokémon existing only in legends; no one knows if these Pokémon really exist.
But Swords of Justice are different.
In this Unova region, as long as there are natural disasters, basically can see the figures of Swords of Justice.
They are always running on the road of saving Pokémon.
In human mouths, belong to Pokémon standing on the side of justice.
Therefore.
Officer Jenny and Brycen didn't want to be enemies with them.
Everyone knew clearly they were misunderstood by Swords of Justice, speaking hurriedly to explain, also letting their own Pokémon help speak.
But this is simply useless work.
Saying Swords of Justice are gods, correct.
Saying they are the side of justice, also correct.
But all this has to be premised—the world of Pokémon.
They are "Gods of Justice" in the Pokémon world, having nothing to do with humans.
Quite the opposite.
Swords of Justice are among many Mythical and Legendary Pokémon.
The only group of Legendary Pokémon not only having no good feelings for humans, but even full of disgust.
Cobalion, Sword of Wisdom (Iron Will Pokemon).
Terrakion, Sword of Power (Cavern Pokemon).
Virizion, Sword of Agility (Grassland Pokemon).
These three masters of Keldeo have been fighting with humans to protect Pokémon since thousands of years ago.
Their mission is to protect Pokémon in the Unova region who lost their hometowns because of human wars.
Just since the League era.
Conflicts in human society reduced significantly.
Not only the number of people hurting Pokémon decreased sharply, even many humans spontaneously organized rescue associations to help wild Pokémon.
Only then won some favor from Swords of Justice.
Letting them gradually disappear from human vision, rarely opposing humans again.
Even at this moment.
Swords of Justice didn't launch attacks immediately, possibly because of this reason.
Otherwise.
By the time Will rushed back, Cynthia and her group might have been completely wiped out.
Keldeo not sure.
But the three Sacred Swords are definitely stable Champion-level Pokémon.
Absolutely not characters this group of people can contend with right now.
"Riolu!"
Seeing Will rushing over, Cynthia ran over hurriedly.
She knew.
The current situation can only be resolved by Riolu who masters Aura Power.
Aura Power has the effect of soothing emotions.
As long as Riolu soothes the emotions of Swords of Justice and listens to their explanation, this battle can definitely be avoided.
"Riolu mastering Aura Power? Great."
Officer Jenny breathed a sigh of relief seeing Will's arrival.
She had heard from her colleagues.
Cynthia has a Riolu mastering Aura Power; it was exactly him who led the motorcycle team to rush here at the fastest speed.
"Please, Cynthia, Riolu."
Brycen looked at them solemnly.
Whether their group is the opponent of these four Pokémon.
Brycen, the Gym Leader, knows best.
So even if Will arrived, his face didn't look much better; spirit still tense.
He must prepare for the worst.
"Leave it to me."
Will raised his hand, catching Victini hiding in mid-air.
Let alone he has come.
Even if he didn't come.
The situation at this moment is not particularly severe.
After all, Victini is still here.
Keldeo is very weak right now, hard to say if he even reached Elite Four level (Gym Leader+), so can be ignored.
The three Sacred Swords are undoubtedly extremely strong in this world.
But among a crowd of Legendary Pokémon, they belong to the bottom stream.
Maybe relying on type advantages, slightly stronger than Legendary Beasts, Legendary Birds, Legendary Titans, but essentially can't leave the "sewer" (low tier among legendaries).
With Victini's boost.
It is not a problem for Brycen's strongest Pokémon to be improved to the point enough to contend with the three Sacred Swords for a while.
Moreover, although Victini doesn't like fighting, it's not that he can't make a move.
His level is higher than the three Sacred Swords.
Anyway.
Striving for time to let everyone escape from here, mostly not difficult.
At worst.
Striving until Will arrives is definitely no problem.
He was nearby himself.
If not focusing on chatting with Darmanitan, he would have noticed the situation here and rushed over immediately long ago.
At this moment.
Will strode to the front of Swords of Justice.
Seeing Will, this "human lackey," young Keldeo even intended to rush up and give him a Nine-Heaven Thunder Double Kick.
But immediately was stopped by Cobalion beside him.
"Aura Guardian?"
Cobalion's golden pupils stared at Will quietly, breaking Will's identity in one word.
That's right.
His identity at this moment is Aura Guardian, not Riolu.
[Aura Guardian] and [Riolu].
The gap between these two identities is quite large.
Not every Riolu, or every Lucario, can be called an Aura Guardian.
Otherwise.
Lucario in the previous life wouldn't have such a big obsession, asking Will unwillingly until death whether he was qualified to be called an Aura Guardian.
Most Lucario are just "Aura Apprentices."
Meeting Aura Apprentices.
Cobalion at most gives two points of thin face (a little respect), listens to their words before making a judgment.
Meeting Aura Guardian.
That will be respected by the three Sacred Swords; Will only needs to stand here to mediate the war.
They believe the Aura Guardian.
Will absolutely not side with humans regardless of stance and right or wrong.
This.
Is called reputation.
In the past era.
The three Sacred Swords equally hated all humans.
Only one exception, Aura Guardian.
In the eyes of the three Sacred Swords, Aura Guardian and humans are two races.
Aura Guardian.
Always walking on the road of mediating wars, always regarding saving common people as own responsibility, always ushering in the ending of sacrificing for others.
Just because of this.
Any Pokémon living a bit longer will look at Aura Guardian differently, treating as a guest of honor.
Ho-Oh and Lugia are like this.
Three Sacred Swords are even less likely to be exceptions.
As for how these Legendary Pokémon distinguish "Aura Apprentice" and "Aura Guardian," they definitely have their own judgment method.
Probably similar to Will's perception.
By feeling the Aura in a person or a Pokémon's heart, judging this person's good or bad, strength or weakness.
"Things are complicated; current situation is not suitable to tell you slowly. I can only guarantee first, this fire has nothing to do with those standing behind; they are here to arrest arsonists and save innocent Pokémon."
Will raised his hand pointing to Cynthia and the group behind him.
"Tini."
Victini spoke out for some reason.
Hearing this voice.
The three Sacred Swords were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, then nodded.
Cobalion as the leader and representative, spoke actively:
"Your words, we naturally believe."
