Chapter 919: Summon Rayquaza?
Chapter 919: Summon Rayquaza?
Being able to absorb the energy created by the death of living beings—Yveltal’s ability was practically a BUFF. There were so many living creatures in the world, so to some extent, it was an invincible existence.
This was what it meant to be a First-class Legendary with a "divine role."
The twin dragons stood in front of Yveltal, blocking its path to the remaining two-thirds of the relatively intact areas of Babath, where even more humans and Pokémon lived.
"You cannot stop me."
Yveltal’s voice echoed in the minds of the twin dragons.
This enraged the twin dragons instantly. There should be limits to looking down on dragons!
The two dragons exchanged a glance.
'Let's take it down!'
This was their first battle since emerging into the world, and they had to make it spectacular.
Facing the pincer attack from the twin dragons, Yveltal suddenly let out a piercing cry, its immense voice reverberating across the entire sky.
"Not good!"
Julian's expression changed abruptly.
This was Snarl.
It was important to know that sound-based attacks could travel extremely far. An Elite-level Pokémon using Snarl could be heard from a hundred kilometers away without any obstructions.
And now the one using Snarl was a First-class Legendary.
"Use Hyper Voice!"
Julian shouted to the twin dragons.
Yveltal intended to use Snarl to kill all the living beings hiding in the remaining two-thirds of Babath.
Once all these living beings died, they would become its power, making it even harder for the twin dragons to deal with it.
Zekrom and Reshiram simultaneously used Hyper Voice, while Julian's voice echoed in their minds again: "Control the power."
Their Hyper Voice would certainly overpower Yveltal's Snarl, but after neutralizing it, the remaining power of the Hyper Voice would still kill many people, which would ultimately benefit Yveltal.
So they had to control the power carefully to ensure mutual cancellation.
'What a hassle.'
Julian cursed inwardly. He didn't care about the lives of the people in Babath, but if they died, it would only strengthen Yveltal.
So they had to be protected.
Or rather—
Julian shifted his attention to the Mewtwo fragments.
At this moment, there were only two minutes left of the Unown's Protection.
Looking at Yveltal again, its condition was still excellent. Defeating it within two minutes was nearly impossible.
Currently, he had ninety Mewtwo fragments, and summoning Mewtwo required ten.
In the past, Julian had been very eager to collect all one hundred Mewtwo fragments, but now that he already possessed the Black and White Dragons, as well as Jirachi—three First-class Legendaries.
His sense of urgency regarding Mewtwo had diminished significantly.
As long as he didn’t encounter a First-class Legendary like Yveltal—one with a "divine role" and also at the very top—the twin dragons should be able to handle anything.
"It’s useless! Useless! Julian, the twin dragons are indeed strong, but Yveltal is a true god!" Lyle laughed loudly.
He watched as the twin dragons’ condition worsened while Yveltal, relying on its ability to absorb death energy, only grew stronger the longer the battle went on.
At first, when he saw Julian summon the twin dragons, his mentality had almost collapsed. But as the battle continued, he slowly realized that Yveltal actually had the advantage.
So now, Lyle felt confident again.

> "It’s over, it’s over—Yveltal is too strong!"
> "They’re all First-class Legendaries. Why are they still losing two-on-one?"
> "What should I do? I’m still inside a bomb shelter in Babath."
> "Brother, what’s the situation inside the shelter right now?"
> "We’re relatively safe for now—it’s just that the ceiling of the shelter is already cracking."
> "Why do you think Champion Walker isn’t summoning Kyogre even now? If it was three against one, he’d probably win."
---
The last comment instantly made the entire chat fall silent.
Indeed—Julian had the scale given to him by Kyogre. The whole world had seen it with their own eyes.
But even though the twin dragons were now being suppressed by Yveltal, Julian still hadn’t summoned Kyogre. That didn’t make sense.
High-ranking officials from various countries were also pondering the same question. Now that the death energy isolating Babath had dissipated, why hadn’t Julian summoned Kyogre when the Black and White Dragons were being suppressed?
If he waited until the twin dragons were defeated, it would be too late. Even if he summoned Kyogre afterward, it might not change anything.
Could there be some unspoken limitation?
In Drakoria’s Conference Hall No. 1, the six Elders sat upright, watching the large screen as Julian commanded the Black and White Dragons in their fierce battle against Yveltal.
"The reason is already obvious. Since Julian still hasn’t summoned Kyogre. There must be some kind of restriction," the Third Elder sighed deeply.
Julian wasn’t stupid, and neither were they—nor were the officials of other countries.
If Julian still wasn’t summoning Kyogre under such circumstances, then there must be some limitation preventing him from doing so.
"Have William prepare to summon Rayquaza. We can't afford to lose Julian," the Grand Elder said solemnly.
With Julian in possession of the Black and White Dragons, he already stood at the pinnacle of the world. As long as Drakoria had Julian, it would be the world's strongest nation.
If he slapped Celestria in the face, the latter would have to smile and ask whether his hand hurt.
That was the power of a nation that possessed two First-class Legendaries it could command freely.
Although Celestria could also summon the First-class Legendary, Dialga, each summoning consumed the lifespan of a Champion.
How many Champions did Celestria have to sacrifice for Dialga?
In contrast, Julian's Black and White Dragons required no such cost.
Unless Drakoria intended to destroy Celestria, the latter would absolutely never summon Dialga.
Of course, Drakoria also had the means to summon Rayquaza—but doing so also required sacrificing at least one Champion’s lifespan.
And now, in order to help Julian fend off Yveltal, the Elders Council had already decided to have Champion William summon Rayquaza at the Sky Altar.
Bang!
Just as the Grand Elder finished speaking, the door was suddenly flung open.
John, who had originally been on his way to Babath, had returned.
"Let me handle the summoning."
"John!"
His older brother, James, immediately stood up.
'Damn it, not again.'
Last time Julian fought Groudon, it was John who went to the Sky Altar. That time they were lucky—Kyogre came, and Julian could command it.
But this time things were different.
The twin dragons were already at a disadvantage, and summoning Rayquaza was almost a certainty. And the Champion who summoned Rayquaza would definitely die.
"You can’t go! If you die, Julian will be devastated. What if he starts resenting Drakoria afterward?"
James roared.
His words were directed at John—but also clearly meant for the Elders present.
Julian, with his Black and White Dragons, held far more value than all of them—Elders and Champions—combined.
The purpose of summoning Rayquaza was to protect him. But if they protected Julian only to have John die, wouldn’t that risk turning Julian’s gratitude into resentment toward Drakoria?
