Pokémon: Rise of Evil

Chapter 272 The Birth of the Armored Man

After a burst of heavy gasping, Shota gradually recovered from the feeling of suffocation.

After taking another deep breath, Shota heard the voices of the surviving members of the Marine and Magma teams searching for their leader:

"Lord Shui Wutong!"

"Lord Chiyansong!"

After this accident, the relationship between the two parties seemed to become friendly, at least there was no tension when they saw each other.

Perhaps, they all realized their mistakes through their leader's behavior.

However, this is not what Shota needs to worry about right now.

Because he was now using a telescope to observe a woman standing on a jewel starfish on the sea.

"Is this the fragment of the ruby ​​and sapphire? You should keep it. It may have some research value."

After placing the red and blue orbs into an exquisite box, the woman looked at the two weak men on a piece of land created by Groudon, sighed, and said:

"The desperate fight between the two of you was spectacular. To be honest, it really moved me. I am willing to give you a chance to survive. As long as you fight hard one more time, the one who survives will be allowed to continue living."

Shui Wutong looked at this strange woman with an inexplicable expression on his face. He slowly got up from the ground, covered his chest with his left hand with a look of pain, and spoke to her:

"Who do you think you are? How dare you order me around!"

As he said that, Shui Wutong swung his huge fist and was about to hit the woman in the face, but he fell down halfway through his run.

"Hahaha! Are you performing foreplay? It's quite funny to be honest."

After laughing a few times, the woman took out a suit of armor and a sword from the shadow behind her.

She pointed at the armor and said:

"This is the armor "Eternity" that can prolong a person's life."

Then she pointed her finger at the sword and said:

"This is the sword "Shun" that can rebound all attacks."

Finally, she concluded:

"I think you should be able to feel the power. After all, one is a man with the blessing of the sea, and the other is a man with the blessing of the earth. Otherwise, your bodies would have collapsed long ago."

"Okay, I don't want to say any more nonsense. Just fight hard again. Whoever wins will have the right to live on and realize their dreams."

Feeling the strange sword and the armor filled with strange energy, Shui Wutong and Chi Yansong looked at each other, and Chi Yansong spoke first:

"Shui Wutong, we are the leaders, and after that great battle, I already feel that we are completely unable to control those super ancient Pokémon. Don't make any more mistakes, Shui Wutong!"

Shui Wutong, whose forehead was black, did not hesitate over the advice of the Red Flame Pine. He slowly climbed up from the ground again and walked towards the Red Flame Pine lying on the ground step by step.

"Chi Yansong, I will continue to live. The Ocean Team will not stop. I will get rid of those who are in my way, and now you have become a part of it. Chi Yansong, you are a respectable opponent. If I hadn't realized Ocean's dream, maybe we would have become friends."

As he spoke, Shui Wutong, dragging his broken body, came to the side of Chi Yansong. He slowly knelt down and spoke to Chi Yansong who was still struggling weakly:

"Don't struggle anymore. I will give you the highest farewell gift from the Marine Corps."

As he spoke, Shui Wutong slowly pushed the weakened Red Flame Pine towards the ocean.

"Well, if there is a chance, I think we should... Forget it, goodbye, Red Flame Pine."

After saying these last words, with the final push from Shui Wutong, the red flame pine rolled down the landslide into the ocean.

After doing all this, Shui Wutong seemed to have been drained of all his strength. He fell to the ground, and his entire body began to dissipate.

"Hey, give me that armor."

Looking at Shui Wutong whose body was beginning to dissipate, the woman laughed tenderly and said:

"You are such a poor and humble fellow, but I will give you this thing anyway."

As the woman threw the armor to Shui Wutong, the moment Shui Wutong touched the armor, his body changed into a particle state and entered the armor.

As Shui Wutong entered the armor in particle form, human eyes appeared in the eye part of the armor. As the armor began to vibrate continuously, finally, a human voice came out from the armor:

"Is this what it feels like to linger on, to be alive?"

Clenching his fists, Shui Wutong looked at the place where the woman had stood before and found that the place was empty.

Shui Wutong sighed and cursed in a low voice:

"Luckily you ran fast, otherwise I would have taught you a lesson, you damned woman."

While Shui Wutong was adapting to his new body, he slowly walked towards the sword named "Shun".

After pulling out the sword, Shui Wutong swung it a few times and then inserted it into the scabbard on the belly band of the armor.

As if he had observed something, Shui Wutong bent down and picked up a piece of paper on the ground.

After reading the contents on the paper, he once again returned to his previous state of madness and laughed loudly. After laughing, he muttered to himself:

"I hope the message this woman left behind is true. Otherwise, there's nothing I can do."

After doing all this, Shui Wutong walked towards Dreams Island along the land created by Groudon.

After Mizugoto leaves, Shota surfaces from beneath the surface.

He carefully put down the half-dead red flame pine and waited for him to wake up.

While Shota was waiting, the woman appeared from nowhere and said to Shota:

"You seem to have noticed that I'm still here, why don't you call my name?"

With his back to the woman, Shota turned around and spoke:

"That's not necessary. After all, I already know your identity, Thatch, one of Team Rocket's three beast warriors."

Thatch is one of the three beast warriors of Team Rocket in the fifth chapter of Pokémon the Movie Special.

In the Ruby and Sapphire arc, she first appeared in the Hoenn region with Sakaki, Chakra and Ouka, and picked up the fragments of the Vermillion Orb and the Indigo Orb after the battle with Kyogre and Groudon.

And now, some of the plots in the Emerald movie are followed: Sachi appears in Shui Wutong's memories. She appeared in front of Chi Yansong and Shui Wutong, whose bodies were on the verge of collapse, a year ago. She used the "Eternal Armor" and the "Instant Sword" as bait to make the two fight each other, and then gave these two things to the victorious Shui Wutong, turning him into an armored man.
