Chapter 718 The Great Cosmic Era

"This"

Rayquaza in the sky had a completely speechless expression on its face.
It wasn't that their allies were in trouble and they were standing still, unwilling to watch their teammates get killed; it was mainly because 'Raichu' had previously declared that he would take down the entire Sea Kingdom alone.

Moreover, the series of attacks and defenses just now, though it sounds like a long story, actually only took a few seconds; the previously invincible 'Raichu' was kicked to ashes and annihilated in one kick! — They died so quickly that they didn't even have time to react.

Of course, on the bright side, if they were to step forward and take a kick, they would probably die even faster than Raichu.

"Don't panic!"

Amidst the collapsed mountains, Gudora spoke to 'stabilize morale'.

"That human has been completely annihilated, and Ōtakemaru is seriously injured. The advantage is on my side!"

Makes sense,
Many rare and exotic animals thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.

Although their leader, Raichu, was kicked to ashes, the Eight Heroes were all immortal; they were merely reincarnated and would be heroes again eighteen years later.

The most crucial point now is that the opponent's Ootengu is seriously injured, and he will most likely be unable to use the Three Divine Swords combined. Suzuka Gozen and Pegasus Hope are also quite exhausted. Our side still has Rayquaza, Kyogre, and Groudon, plus many rare Pokémon that are still in good condition, so we do have the advantage.

Now is the perfect time to kick a drowning fish while it's down!
"Pegasus—"

Just as the many rare beasts were getting restless, four figures broke through the clouds and leaped down.

"Yihua, you've come at the perfect time."

Pegasus hoped he would see reinforcements without having to turn around.

She was essentially a Demon-level being, and after battling a Dragon-level being, she was exhausted both mentally and physically; now that her good friend had brought people to support her, it couldn't be better.

Iori Ichika, Kusanagi Kyo, Yagami Iori, Kagura Chizuru.

? !
Four Ghost-level,

And that familiar aura:
"It's the family of the Three Sacred Treasures!"

Mewtwo, hovering in the air, frowned. These "Eight Generals" were Orochi's subordinates and were mortal enemies of the "Three Sacred Treasures Families" representing Takamagahara.

Moreover, all three families possess some kind of 'Three Divine Skills'; if one is not careful, even a Dragon-level being can be defeated.

"Hehehe, I don't want to fight them."

The Gengar, which also flew over, turned its head and looked at Rayquaza while speaking.

"Lord Rayquaza, what should we do?"

The enemy, Ōtakemaru, was severely injured by a piercing wound, while their side had three Dragon-level beings in relatively good condition, so they originally had the upper hand in terms of strength.

However, now that four new Demon-level monsters have joined the opposing team, and three of them are from the three Sacred Treasures families who are 'sworn enemies', the Eight Warriors without Raichu and Machamp might not be able to defeat them.

"Giratina, what do you think?"

Rayquaza didn't answer Gengar's question; instead, it looked at a certain six-legged dragon that had been 'just passing by' all along.

Giratina, the Eight Orochi Warriors who wield the power of 'death'.

Because of the frequent wars in this world recently, the power of death has increased dramatically.

If Giratina were to go all out, its fighting power would be no less than Raichu's. However:
"Death is inevitable, and human life is but a fleeting moment; only the master is eternal and immortal. We only need to wait quietly for these sinners to perish."

The large, gray, dragon-shaped Eight Heroes' Buddhist-like response roughly translates to: "With our lifespan, it's enough for us to just watch these guys die."

Simply put, it's because I'm too lazy to do it myself.

Then there's no chance of fighting.

As Ichika arrived at the battlefield with Kyo Kusanagi, Iori Yagami, and Chizuru Kagura, both sides remained in a standoff due to their concerns, without actually making a move.

"Hahaha~~"

"Everyone, listen to me!"

A voice rang out again, breaking the tense atmosphere.

"I know that countless people around the world wish I were dead right now; but believe me, you will soon thank me."

While Teach was talking eloquently, KYG suddenly paused, and Gui Gui's voice came from inside the helmet.

'KYG, Teach ran away!'

Ran away?!
Could it be——

“Pegasus, please take a look at Teach.”

Hearing KYG's voice below, Pegasus hoped his gaze would sweep over the source of everything:

"Hahaha, no need to look, this is just a 'clone'!"

The tall, fat man who had been standing in the black mud decisively revealed the truth.

brush,

He then raised his arm and pointed to the sky.

"My true form has already left this planet aboard the 'Revenge' spaceship, heading towards the unknown universe~~~ Zehahahaha!!"

???

"coward--"

"Damn it, you just ran away like that?!"

Upon hearing this news, Hai Guofang felt dizzy and almost couldn't catch his breath.

Leaving aside the past incident where Teach tricked the Sea Kingdom, this current great war was also caused by his capture of Arlong. The result of the war in the end:
That bastard has already escaped the planet in a spaceship! How can anyone not be furious? They were even planning to get revenge on Teach. There's nothing more frustrating than this!
"Hey, are all of you under Orochi's command stupid?"

Why should we help this bastard!

Helpless, the anger of the Sea Kingdom was directed at the rare beasts under the command of the Yamata no Orochi.

Were these guys also poisoned by Teach and controlled? But as a dignified superhuman, the poison that can make ordinary people unable to resist is just flour to superhumans. How could they be so easily affected?

"I will explain your doubts."

Teach's 'doppelganger' clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention back to him.

"KYG, is Lord Ghost on you?!"

In response to Teach's question, a short-haired sailor-uniformed girl emerged from the shoulder of KYG's Kamen Rider armor. "Hey, what do you want?"

"I hope you can help me with the message I'm about to send."

?

"Don't listen to him!"

"Teach, what kind of scheme are you plotting now?"

Before Teach could finish speaking, the Sea Kingdom's side erupted in excitement: if it weren't for the remaining 'Eight Heroes' eyeing them covetously, and if this wasn't just a 'clone' in front of them, they would have loved to rush up and tear this guy apart.

"Complete technology for controlled nuclear fusion, as well as data related to spacecraft."

As Teach finished speaking solemnly, the commotion from the Sea Kingdom side gradually subsided. This was partly because most of the 'Sea Kingdom people' couldn't understand, and partly because:
"What exactly do you want, Teach!"

Roman stepped forward, frowning as he questioned him.

In this battlefield, only Demon-level beings are qualified to engage in dialogue, and only Dragon-level beings can determine the outcome.

The world has seen a resurgence of the extraordinary, with all sorts of extraordinary beings acting like wolves and tigers, and those gods and demons from a thousand years ago stirring with restless energy; but for ordinary people, apart from the disappearance of XXX cities and the destruction of XXX countries, not much has changed.

Not everyone is fearless in the face of battle and enjoys climbing to the top.

Most people simply want a peaceful life.

The complete technology of controlled nuclear fusion
And the data related to spacecraft are all very high-tech things.

If what Teach said is true, then these two things he presented are a 'way out' for many people!
The path to survival in space.

"My goal? I want to usher in a new era of the universe!!"

With arms outstretched, this history professor named Marshall Teach, once an unruly 'hero,' humanity's most wanted criminal, the 'hero' who betrayed Kujou Aoi, and now the mastermind behind the war between the Sea Kingdom and the Orochi forces, proudly announced to everyone—no, to the entire world.

"With these two technologies, combined with the 'Sealing Scroll,' interstellar travel is entirely possible."

"Everyone, people all over the world—"

Teach's hoarse yet alluring voice, rising from the mountaintop, echoed across the battlefield.

Every civilization develops from the banks of a river.

Because rivers bring abundant water and fertile land. However:
"Mature civilizations will eventually leave rivers, break free from the limitations of water resources, and establish cities in better places!"

"Now is the time for humanity to make a change: this planet has limited and hindered our development! Only the universe, the boundless universe, is a vast stage!"

It must be said that Teach's words were very persuasive, and as a former history professor, his eloquence was also remarkable. Despite being just an 'avatar,' he strangely became the center of attention on the entire battlefield: even the several dragon-level powerhouses present couldn't help but want to hear what he had to say.

"Go, go into the universe to find a new home, a safe planet, and—"

The burly, dark-skinned man with a full beard lowered his head, his aggressive gaze landing on the Sea Kingdom's camp.

"Do you all really want revenge on me?"

? !
"Teach, you really will stop at nothing to achieve your 'dream'."

Roman was the first to react, pushing up his brown sunglasses.

Teach's goal is to explore the universe.

But he was clearly too weak and alone, so this guy actually used this method to start the 'Great Cosmic Era'.

"Come--"

"I will be waiting for you in the universe!"

At the same time, a huge data packet suddenly appeared in electronic devices around the world.

The complete technology of controlled nuclear fusion, as well as data related to spacecraft.

"Ghana,"

The next second, 'Teach' turned into black mud and scattered.

"That's the reason,"

Rayquaza, flying in the air, spoke.

"Humans, if you don't want to die, get off this planet!"

"This is the only mercy we can show you: when our master returns, he does not want to see this planet destroyed."

If humanity simply disappears, then the planet's environmental problems will naturally cease to be a concern. As for the gods—that's not a problem for their 'Eight Great Generals' to worry about; that's the domain of the Yamata no Orochi.

That's it!

Now the whole world finally understands.

By capturing Arlong, Teach could lure the Sea Kingdom, which had 'offended' the Yamata no Orochi, into his trap.
On the other hand, it also showcased the power of the new 'Eight Heroes' to everyone, while providing another option:

That means accompanying him on a space adventure!

It must be said that Teach's scheme was indeed extremely bizarre.

but:

Surprisingly, it worked.

That's enough for today.

When enemy reinforcements arrived, the strongest Raichu was annihilated, and Rayquaza took over command.

The loss of two of the "Eight Heroes" and many rare beasts requires replacement.

"Or perhaps, your Sea Kingdom intends to continue fighting?"

"war--"

With A-Long having returned to the Sea Kingdom's camp, Ōtakemaru raised his sword and announced...

"Finish."
