Pokémon: Ash's Rebirth World Line Concludes

Chapter 770: The Origin of Zeraora

"So~you are my...or rather, my important partner in the future?" Xiaozhi scratched his head and summed up.

"Yes, I come from the future timeline." White-haired Jelaora licked his wrist and continued speaking.

"Alola, as a crucial node guarding the rift in space and time, remained safe for nearly fifty years because of the First Champion of Alola."

"Didn't I find time to catch some fish or something?" Xiaozhi asked guiltily.

Dio and Zeraora on the side: (￢_￢)...

"You don't need to stay in Alola all the time. The defense team, mainly composed of six heroic Pokémon, will take turns on duty. Whenever a space-time crisis occurs, we will take turns to attack with you.

Among them are the Ice Monster Dragonite, the Fire Emperor Entei, the Sky Monster Rayquaza, the Earth Monster Splitting Mantis, the Flame Monster Moltres, and the Lightning Monster Pikachu-senpai..."

The white-haired Zeraora looked at Pikachu in admiration, then pointed at himself and said, "And I am the second generation to inherit the title of Thunder Beast, Zeraora!"

"Second generation?" Xiaozhi exclaimed with wide eyes.

“Indeed, although there is the nourishment of the Spacetime Divine Beast, the peak periods of each of the seniors are of different lengths.

We, the second generation, began training in 3642 of the Alliance Calendar and joined the first team four years later," Zeraora explained clearly.

"3642..." Xiaozhi counted on his fingers, "Fuck, I'm 80 and I haven't retired yet?"

"You have always been in a semi-retired state, simply because your successors cannot reach your heights...

And… I don’t know what the great god Arceus has changed… Your body seems to be aging abnormally slowly… It’s like you’re twenty years old but still look like you’re ten…”

"Master, please give me an explanation." Xiaozhi took out the Arceus phone.

"I don't know..." Arceus's phone came with a dumbfounded voice: "Besides, you know me, I usually don't interfere with the operation of the world.

Is it possible... that there are too many people who want you to keep going?"

Since ancient times, famous generals are like beauties, and they are not allowed to see their hair turn gray in the world...

Xiaozhi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and chuckled: "It doesn't matter, even if my hair is gray, I am still the same high-spirited boy I once was."

"Well... never mind. No one can predict what will happen in the future anyway. Maybe then I'll just leave the responsibility to my son."

After realizing this, Xiaozhi stopped worrying about it. However, Zeraora's words made Xiaozhi suddenly realize something.

"So, the legend of Sinnoh's lightning monsters, the legend of Kalos's heroic Gninja, and some other legends related to me..."

"It's all true~" Zeraora nodded. "Greninja-senpai is one of the few masters who can work with Hero-level Pokémon."

"Ah, chacha~" Xiaozhi scratched his head: "My head feels itchy~ I need to grow a brain."

Dio, who was standing by, was completely stunned by what he heard. He never expected that the boy in front of him would become such a great trainer in the future.

"Ahem~ Well, Zeraora, since you are the second-generation Thundermon, why are you here?" Xiaozhi continued to ask.

"Because of the time earthquake..." Zeraora's face was solemn: "Dr. Ray detected a major historical turning point in Alliance calendar year 3682, and I went to investigate.

Unexpectedly, Lakua in the Padia region was attacked by the violent Zygarde.

In addition, there was a siege by the product of the space-time paradox. After being defeated, I fled into the space-time tunnel. Unexpectedly, at that time, space-time reconstruction suddenly occurred.

I was excluded from this world..."

"Then, can you still go back?" Xiaozhi asked worriedly.

“There’s no going back~” Zeraora lowered her head in frustration: “The time-space device has been lost in the reconstructed tunnel.

Judging from the current development of technology, it would take at least fifty to one hundred years to achieve the kind of precise time-space positioning and travel that we'll see in the future...

That point in time almost coincided with the point in time before I traveled through time.

There’s no need for that…”

"Is that so..." Xiaozhi stroked Zeraora's white fur, which was generated by the power of the time-space paradox, and said seriously: "Then stay here, with me."

"Of course!" Zeraora suddenly became happy. "It's my honor to live with the seniors of the first generation."

"Pika Pika~" Pikachu scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. This is my little brother from decades later, he looks stronger than me~

"Your Poké Ball probably can't be found, so use this." Xiaozhi took out a special luxury ball.

Zeraora nodded and tapped the switch on the luxury ball.

In a flash of red light, Zeraora returned to the ball, and Xiaozhi released it again.

"Okay, now we have one last problem left." Xiaozhi looked at Dio: "How do we return to our own world?"

Dio rubbed his chin and speculated, “Since you were pulled in here by the power of the island’s guardian deity.

Then, I guess your way back should be here."

On the worn-out map, a red skull mark appeared in front of Xiaozhi.

“This is the node of an ultimate strange cave. The Evil Food King emerged from here.

As long as we enter here, we should be able to be teleported back." Dio guessed.

"I guess it's not that easy." Xiaozhi asked with a smile.

"That's right! This is also the lair of the Evil Food King. There are five Evil Food Kings who came here through the Ultra Cave!

They usually forage for food outside, but there are always one or two guarding here," Dio replied with some fear.

“So, if you want to enter here, you must defeat at least two or more Evil Food Kings.

But~even the hero Zeraora could only barely repel one..."

Xiaozhi and Pikachu immediately looked at Zeraora, their eyes meaning: Brother... you are so lame...

"No...that's it...meow!" The white-haired Jelaora's face turned red visibly, and he even made cat sounds in a hurry.

"I have a special move, but I can't use it alone! Your Majesty, this is for you!"

In the cat's hand, a lightning crystal with a lion totem was handed to Xiaozhi.

"Z pure crystal?" Xiaozhi asked doubtfully.

"That's right, this is my exclusive Z, [Ultimate Volt Flash Fang], a move on the same level as my senior's 10 million volts." Zeraora raised his head and chest with pride.

"This is a group attack that uses Lightning Fist to unleash a curtain of faster-than-light punches. It can take out not only three but even five Evil Food Kings at once."

"Wow!!" Dio and the golden Zeraora were stunned.

Xiaozhi felt the aura and energy flow of the pure crystal and grinned, "Well then, without further ado, let's go and take care of them. Just consider it... a tribute to Alola in this parallel world."

"Thank you, Alola Champion, limited to Ash and Sama..." Dio's eyes were filled with tears.

Perhaps, after expelling the Food King, Alola can regain its glory.

All of this depends on Xiaozhi and Zeraora.

"Dio-san, you are responsible for luring Oothea to the cave entrance. Pikachu, Zeraora, fight side by side!" Xiaozhi stretched out his fist.

"Pika!" Pikachu raised his little fist.

Zeraora was stunned for a moment, as if he was back to every time he went on a mission.

"Meow~" After a purr, Zeraora proudly handed over the cat fist.

"Ultimate Guard, move out!!"

"Ow!!"
