I, Zhulan's childhood sweetheart, was trapped in Xicui.

"Oh? You are... Little Xingyun?" Xu Li looked at Lunala in front of him, stunned for a moment, then asked.

“Lula!!” Lunala’s crescent-shaped head nodded repeatedly.

"Gu'o?" Solgaleo tilted his head and looked at Lunala. He could sense the relative power level within her, but...

So weak,

No threat.

Lillie also noticed this scene at this time. She was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Brother Xu Li! And... Mom."

After waving hello to Lillie, Xu Li was instantly attracted by the large pits in the ground. In one of the pits, Necrozma, who had just fought with Xu Li, was lying in the pit, with his huge black arms covering his head, as if he was dead.

In the air, the Split Sky Seat stood motionless. It opened its bright yellow eyes and shouted at Xu Li, "Roar!"

Xu Li: "Did you finish eating so quickly?"

"Hmm!" Rayquaza said that he hadn't eaten an energy cube for two days!

"Here you go," Xu Li threw out the package of energy cubes, then looked at Necrozma in the pit in surprise and asked, "Why is it here?"

"roar……."

"You mean this guy appeared right in front of you?" Xu Li looked at Necrozma strangely. "And then you defeated him?"

"Hmm!" Rayquaza nodded as a matter of course.

"Guoo!" Solgaleo also followed Xu Li's gaze and looked at Necrozma. He narrowed his eyes and felt that this Pokémon made him feel very uncomfortable.

Xu Li patted Solgaleo's lion head and said, "Why do all your Pokémon seem uncomfortable?"

Although he knew the reason.

Solgaleo felt a little aggrieved: "Guou..."

Just these two.

Xu Li smiled and said, "Don't worry...I'm here."

"Guou..."

Hearing the movement above, Necrozma quietly opened its eyes from the gap between its huge arms, and in an instant, its eyes froze.

Why is this human chatting and laughing with this long green worm?

Do they know each other!?

Then I am finished! ?

Necrozma could hardly believe what he saw, his eyes filled with despair.

But Xu Li ignored Necrozma and didn't notice its expression.

As Solgaleo landed steadily, Xu Li jumped directly off the body of the iron lion, then turned to the other side with a smile on his face.

"Why don't you worry about me?" Xu Li smiled lightly.

"Who cares about you?" Zhu Lan turned her head away. "You don't care about our feelings anyway. You just run to dangerous places."

Xu Li walked towards Zhu Lan, cupped her delicate cheeks with both hands, and then rubbed her haggard eye bags with his thumbs with some pity: "Are you angry?"

Zhu Lan puffed up her fair face and pressed against Xu Li's palm: "Very angry."

"I'm sorry to have worried you..."

"Hmph..." Zhu Lan looked at Xu Li fiercely, "You should worry more about yourself."

Xu Li pursed his lips, wondering what was going on with his waist shaking.

At this time, Xi Jiana poked Xu Li from the side, a lollipop in her mouth: "Why don't you ask me if I'm worried about you?"

Xu Li turned around: "Are you worried?"

Xijiana raised her head: "Don't worry!"

Xu Li: “…”

Lusamine, who had come down from Solgaleo, looked over here, crossed her arms, and couldn't help biting her inner lip. She simply turned a blind eye and said, "Liliae."

Lillie, who wanted to get closer but didn't dare, immediately focused her attention: "Here."

Lusamine smiled. "I was wrong before. You did a good job this time."

Lilia: "Huh?"

Ignoring Lillie's surprise, Lusamine continued, "I cleaned your room three days before I entered the Ultra Cave. You can come back and rest anytime."

"If you meet Gladion, tell him so for me. If he still wants to travel, let him do so."

After saying that, Lusamine walked directly towards Xu Li, regardless of Lillie's reaction, and stretched out her fair hand. In Xu Li's questioning eyes, she said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Xu Li."

Xu Li hesitated, and shook hands with Lusamine in her smiling eyes. He was about to explain to Zhulan,

Lusamine winked at Xu Li covertly, scratched his palm with her fingers, and said seriously on her delicate face, "Thanks to you for saving me in the Ultimate Space, Mr. Xu Li. I will rely on your help to our Aether Foundation in the future. I believe that we will have a pleasant cooperation!"

"Ah?" Xu Li was confused and didn't understand what Lusamine meant.

Xi Jiana, who was standing by, switched her gaze between Xu Li and Lusamine, and asked curiously, "Cooperation? Xu Li, what did you cooperate on?"

Xu Li: “…”

He doesn’t know either!

Amidst the inquiring gazes of the crowd and Xu Li's confusion, Lusamine explained, "Mr. Xu Li is now the second-largest shareholder of our Aether Foundation. As for what we're collaborating on... well, it's about research on Ultra Beasts."

"Okay, I'll take my leave now." Lusamine smiled inexplicably, her fingers gently circling Xu Li's palm before releasing his hand and continuing, "I also have to go back to clean up the mess at the Foundation. Mr. Xu Li, as for our cooperation... we have a long way to go."

After saying that, Lusamine left in a leisurely manner.

Xu Li blinked and looked at Lusamine's departing back.

What does this woman want to do?

He had been planning to honestly explain to Zhulan what had happened... but judging from Lusamine's expression, she seemed to want to keep it secret?

But Xu Li didn't intend to hide it.

At this time, Zhulan asked angrily: "Is it beautiful?"

Xu Li said honestly, "It looks good."

Chapter 140: Ultimate Beast

Xu Li laughed at Zhu Lan's fake annoyance and turned to look at Necrozma: "Let's take a look at this big guy. I will explain what happened inside."

"I'll wait." Zhu Lan puffed up her cheeks and was pulled by Xu Li towards Necrozma. As they walked, she said, "Necrozma, its identity is not simple."

Xu Li asked in surprise: "How did you know?"

Zhulan: "I know a lot about Alola's history now. Legend has it that when the Light Plunderer, Necrozma, appears, the world will be engulfed in darkness, and the sun and moon will be taken away."

"But there's also a saying that Necrozma is called the God of Light. It's because of his appearance that he continuously infused energy into the dark Alola region, making Alola a place of light."

"So... which one is it?"

When it came to the latter part, even Zhulan was a little confused.

"Hey!"

Necrozma, who had been eavesdropping, couldn't help it. When he heard them discussing him, he struggled to stand up with his legs, which looked very thin compared to his body. Then he looked at Xu Li and Zhu Lan with a sharp gaze.

It knew there was a nasty dragon watching from above, so it didn't make any attacking gestures.

Xu Li looked at Necrozma's reaction and asked with a smile, "What do you want to say?"

Necrozma discussed the terms: "Kuchi..."

They wanted to exchange their departure for the truth of the legend they were interested in.

Xu Li shook his head decisively: "Of course not."

Now it was just a matter of chance that he was able to take down Necrozma while he was weak.

If Necrozma were to leave and recover to his 'Glorious God'-like strength, it would undoubtedly be a huge hidden danger, especially for Solgaleo and Lunala.

Before Xu Li understood Necrozma's attitude, he would definitely not let Necrozma act alone.

After hearing Xu Li's decisive refusal, Necrozma's face was full of disappointment.

"However..." Xu Li changed the subject, instantly attracting its attention, "If you are willing to accept supervision, it is not impossible to agree to your request."

Necrozma didn't understand what that meant: "Huh...?"

"That's it..." Xu Li took out an Ultimate Ball, "Go inside, we'll arrange for someone to take care of you and give you some free time. Of course, you have to obey orders as well."

These ultimate balls were taken by Xu Li from Lusamine when he was in the ultimate space. After all, an environment like the ultimate space does require some ultimate balls to be prepared.

After a pause, Xu Li continued, "Also...if you enter this Poké Ball, we will no longer be enemies."

Hearing these conditions, Necrozma was actually quite tempted. However, looking at the Ultra Ball, he was filled with doubt.

"Crack?"

How can this tiny ball get in?

It has been trapped in the Ultra Metropolis Tower for many years. The people in Ultra Metropolis rarely use Poké Balls, so it is naturally difficult to access it. In addition, it rarely appears in front of people, and the only times it appears are almost a few times in mythology, so it is difficult to recognize Poké Balls.

Xu Li: “…”

I really didn't notice that Necrozma is an antique.

He immediately explained the function of the Poké Ball.

Necrozma immediately revealed an expression of surprise. With some curiosity, he tentatively touched it with his thick arm, which immediately triggered the Poké Ball's capture state. With a whoosh, he turned into white light and entered it.

Then with a few clicks, the Poké Ball made the sound of a successful capture.

Xu Li: “?”

Don’t you struggle at all?

He thought Necrozma was trying to enter, then struggle out and negotiate terms.

Xu Li threw Necrozma out again and asked, "So... do you agree?"

"Click!" It nodded as a matter of course.

If I don't enter the Poké Ball, am I going to pretend to be dead here?

The conditions proposed by Xu Li were the only comfortable path for Necrozma in such a situation.

And... Necrozma shook its body. For some reason, after entering Xu Li's Poké Ball, it felt like it had become a little stronger?

It's not the kind of improvement that restores strength, but an increase in the upper limit of strength.

This made Necrozma look at Xu Li with inexplicable curiosity.

"Alright then..." Xu Li nodded, then said, "By the way, which of the descriptions of you in the legend is correct?"

“Crack!”

It's all me!

Whether it's the 'Light Plunderer' that plunges the world into darkness, or the 'Glorious God' that brings light to Alola, it's this.

Necrozma replied.

Xu Li blinked: "So powerful?"

Necrozma immediately raised his head proudly, finally saving some face in front of Xu Li, and continued, "Crack!"

Even the bracelet on your hand is filled with my aura energy!

Xu Li looked at the Z bracelet on his hand: "Are you talking about this?"

"Hey!"

"So that's how it is." Xu Li seemed to be lost in thought. "So it was the Z-Move I used in front of the Ultimate Metropolis that became the trigger for your awakening?"

“Crack!”

It seems that the Alola region's unique Z-move system and dominant Pokémon are all related to Necrozma. If Necrozma hadn't said it, Xu Li really wouldn't understand.

"Z-Move?" Shigana came closer and asked Necrozma, "Z-Move is yours?"

Seeing how much she cared about the Z-Move, Necrozma nodded proudly.
