Ash started calling for Pikachu right at the very bottom of Yggdrasil!

Logically speaking, at such a distance, Ash's voice should not be able to reach him at all.

But... he was calling for Pikachu!

Pikachu, with whom he shares an incredibly deep bond!

In those shouts, Pikachu seemed to hear Ash's voice from within its own heart!

He quickly ran out and shouted down at the base of the World Tree.

"Pikachu!!!"

The sound echoed throughout the entire World Tree.

However, Ash, who is under the World Tree, theoretically cannot hear anything.

However, that's only in theory!

Ash definitely heard, or rather, felt, Pikachu calling him!

Chapter 171: Lucario Overpowers the Three Legendary Titans! Kojiro's Touching Act!

In the video—

Ash's excitement at the prospect of finding Pikachu made him move even faster!

He began to climb and move swiftly, and apart from Lucario, no one else could keep up with Ash's movements!

However, just as he was climbing a slope...

A cold, winding beam of light, carrying a chilling power, hurtled towards us!

Fortunately, Ash reacted quickly and dodged the Freeze Beam with a crucial backstep!

Otherwise, he would have turned into an ice cube by now!

Ash and Lucario looked up and saw a giant Pokémon made of ice blocking their way!

Regice, the Ice Regiment, one of the three legendary Titans!

Including this divine pillar, we've already encountered two divine pillars here!

It's very likely that the three legendary pillars are all gathered inside the World Tree, responsible for protecting it!

Ash wanted to explain to Regice that he was only looking for his partner and would leave once he found him.

But Regice is just a block of ice, and there's only one program in its mind—

Protect the World Tree!

If a strange human approaches the World Tree, then the World Tree is its enemy!

Without saying a word, He fired another icy freezing ray!

Seeing this, Lucario no longer held back, conjuring a wave missile in its hand and launching it! It directly canceled out the Ice Beam.

He then fled with Ash, and before leaving, he instantly fired another Aura Sphere to stop Regice from chasing him.

Lucario's strength... is evident!

He has already beaten up two of the three Divine Pillars.

There's also a Registeel... If it's here too, it won't be far off.

During their escape, they encountered Musashi and Kojiro, who were also fleeing.

And those who were chasing them were the other two divine pillars!

Regirock and Registeel!

With Regice following along, it can be said that all three legendary Titans are here!

Musashi and Kojiro had no way to fight the Regi, so they had to ask Ash for help.

At this point, Ash didn't care whether they were enemies or friends, anyway... they were both the ones being chased!

Led by Lucario, the group continued their escape.

Lucario almost single-handedly stopped the three great pillars!

He fired wave missiles continuously, managing to block the three God Pillars!

……

[Shiba: Holy crap, Instant Wave Missiles?! Speed, power, stamina—they're all so strong! This Lucario has definitely surpassed Champion level!]

[Mickey: Shiba's reaction is really slow! This Lucario already has the double certification of being both the Age of Gods and Cynthia Champion, and you're only now realizing it's beyond Champion?]

[Lorelei: This is the first time you've met him? But this Lucario is really impressive! And have you guys noticed something? This Lucario seems to... be effective against all the Legendary Titans!]

[Dara: You know what, you really do know! Lucario's Steel and Fighting types seem to really counter Steel, and Rock and Ice types too! Doesn't that mean it's... a perfect counter to Age of Gods?]

[Lance: If Ash had brought this Lucario when he challenged Brandon... wouldn't Brandon have been wrecked?]

[Lyla: I noticed that when Ash released his Pokémon, Sceptile was still a Grovyle, meaning it was only at the beginning of its challenge in the Battle Frontier, not yet at Age of Empires.]

[Dara: If Ash caught Lucario, wouldn't he easily defeat Generation with one hand?]

[Generation of Gods:...]

You think you're so great! You're so arrogant! You use me as a unit of measurement in battle, huh?!

But... what they said actually seems to be true!

Judging from Lucario's current strength, even if all three Legendary Titans were to use their combined power, it would be difficult for him to defeat this Lucario.

This has nothing to do with command ability; it's mainly because this Lucario is too strong in combat!

The instantaneous wave missile far surpasses his three divine pillars in strength, speed, and endurance!

What good is his command ability if the gap in combat strength between the two sides is already completely unequal?

[DaYe: But... if Ash caught Lucario, why didn't he use it in the battle against Age of Kings?]

[Daiwu: Indeed, judging from the current situation, Lucario should be following Ash. Let's wait and see.]

……

In the video—

Lucario briefly blocked the three legendary titans before catching up with Ash and his friends.

Then the group crossed a very narrow bridge. After crossing the bridge,

Lucario used Aura Sphere to cut the bridge, blocking the three Legendary Titans!

However, this could only hold them off temporarily; the three divine pillars could all use their mysterious powers to levitate and fly for short periods.

Except for one earth god who cannot fly, almost all mythical beasts can fly.

Ash and the others also seized the time to escape, with Jessie and Kojiro leading the way!

But soon, new enemies stood in their way!

This is an orange cradle lily!

A different colored sprite? No, not one of those sprites that is a different color.

Instead, it was a creature whose entire body seemed to be composed of orange liquid!

Musashi was swallowed whole by the orange Cradle Lily!

Kojiro released Nyarlathotep from the desert, intending to rescue Musashi.

However, the missiles launched by Desert Naya had absolutely no effect on it! They were swallowed up directly!

Musashi was devoured without a trace right before everyone's eyes!

By the time Ash and his friends caught up, only James and Nyarlathotep remained in the same spot.

Before they could even ask what had happened,

The orange liquid condensed again from the ground and instantly covered Kojiro's body!

Before being swallowed, Kojiro used his last bit of strength to retrieve a Poké Ball.

"Wind Chime, run! And Desert Naya too! Don't worry about me!"

These were Kojiro's last words before he was swallowed up by the orange liquid!

……

[Lancer: ...You call this Team Rocket?]

[Dan Di: When his own life was in danger, his first thought was to help his Pokémon escape...]

[Big Leaf: James of Team Rocket... his love for his Pokémon probably surpasses that of 99% of the people in the world!]

[Dalene: These three guys, although they always shout about doing bad things, have actually done almost nothing bad, and they're very kind to their Pokémon... I wish all bad people were like them.]

[Michael: Unfortunately, that's almost impossible. Such villains are rare, perhaps only appearing once every few centuries. They're villains in name only, but actually good people.]

[Cattleya: That's right. If it were any other Team Rocket member... heh, they'd probably send their Pokémon to their deaths right away! But Kojiro is the complete opposite...]
