Chapter 675 Sinnoh Lily of the Valley Conference
In the days that followed, Natsume's life seemed to temporarily return to a kind of "normal".
He handled all the affairs of the academy every day, listening to the progress reports from the elite students sent to various regions, but he devoted more of his energy to another crucial aspect of his "cultivation."
Every evening, he would use his supernatural abilities to quietly enter that desolate, bizarre, and reversed world with rules that were completely different from the real world.
His goal was clear: to attempt to materialize the psychic creation of a 24K gold giant Pikachu, which was constructed by a million dream demons and unexpectedly incorporated the treasures of the three lakes, in the Reverse World.
This is by no means an easy task.
The Reverse World's suppression of telekinesis is astonishing, like throwing a punch in water—the resistance is immense and it's difficult to exert force.
In the first few days, Natsume tried his best, but could only barely condense the blurry outline of a giant finger in the void of the reverse world. Moreover, it was extremely unstable and would collapse if he was distracted even slightly.
The guy with the middle part would always follow them in, wearing his Nightmare Armor, hovering to the side like a little overseer, his beady eyes fixed on every "part" that Natsume conjured.
Whenever Natsume's outline becomes distorted or shows signs of fading due to exhaustion, it makes anxious "pika pika" sounds and gestures with its little paws, as if afraid that Natsume will damage its "foundation of the future temple".
Natsume was both annoyed and amused.
But this also became one of the motivations that kept him going.
With each day of practice, he became more and more skilled at manipulating telekinesis in the Reverse World.
From a single finger to a palm, and then to the clear outline of a Pikachu ear.
Progress is slow, but solid and visible.
While he was struggling to "work his way up" in the Reverse World, he keenly noticed that the miniature Reverse World in his main world, which had been born from the Giratina Power Seed and had previously stopped expanding, had begun to expand again, albeit very slowly!
The Dark Tree, which was originally just a sapling, began to grow slightly taller, and the reversed world energy flowing among its branches and leaves became even more concentrated.
"Training telekinesis in the Reverse World actually promoted the growth of the Reverse World in the main world?" A realization dawned on Natsume.
"Is it because of the resonance of forces from the same source? Or is this kind of manipulation that transcends boundaries itself a kind of understanding and expansion of the rules of the world?"
This discovery strengthened his resolve to continue practicing.
He sensed that when the golden colossus fully materialized in the Reversal World, it might be more than just gaining a key to communicate with Giratina.
This likely means that his understanding of the unconventional rules of the reverse world will reach a whole new level.
Time slips away quietly in this fulfilling and regular rhythm.
One day, Natsume was reviewing documents in his office when his communicator rang. The name displayed on the screen was—
Bamboo orchid.
"Natsume,"
The communication was connected, and Cynthia's smiling face appeared on the screen, with the background seemingly being the impressive office building of the Sinnoh League.
"The Sinnoh League Conference is about to begin, and we'd like to invite you to attend as a special guest judge. What do you say, are you interested?"
Natsume looked up from the document, slightly surprised.
The role of a judge at the Alliance Conference doesn't usually hold much appeal for him, as he's more interested in research and "stirring things up."
But considering that this was Cynthia's invitation, and that the Sinnoh region seemed to hold many secrets.
For example, Rotom, the garbage robot that appeared before, returned and gathered a lot of information.
There's nothing but urban legends.
He hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Sure, things have just come to a close at the academy, so it wouldn't hurt to go and join in the fun."
"That's great!" Zhu Lan seemed very happy.
"Then you'd better get going. The tournament officially opens the day after tomorrow, and the opening match is going to be very interesting."
She paused, her tone becoming slightly more serious.
"Also, you reminded me to keep an eye on Team Galactic's movements before you left last time. I've also found some clues. We'll discuss it in detail when we meet."
"Okay, I'll be there on time." Natsume hung up the call and looked out the window.
Sinnoh League Conference.
I wonder how far Ash has grown now?
A few days later, Natsume arrived at the main venue of the Sinnoh League Tournament on Suzuran Island.
The place was bustling with activity, colorful flags were waving, and the air was thick with the atmosphere of passion and competition.
He followed the directions to the judges' table on the chairman's platform and sat down next to Zhu Lan.
At this moment, a fierce battle is taking place on the field.
Natsume's gaze swept across the arena and quickly locked onto a familiar figure—Darkdo.
His opponent, a trainer using a Staraptor, is currently engaged in a tough battle.
"Darkrai, the black hole." Darkrai's voice was calm and undisturbed.
The shadow energy surged, and before the Starhawk even had a chance to struggle, it fell into a deep sleep and was easily taken away by the Shadow Orb.
"Mukhari is unable to fight! Darko wins!" the referee announced loudly.
"Darkrai has defeated five opponents in a row with just one Darkrai, advancing with great momentum!"
The audience erupted in cheers and chatter.
"That's incredible! Will anyone be able to spot his second Pokémon?"
"As expected of a legendary Pokémon."
"It seems the champion of this tournament is already a foregone conclusion."
Natsume listened to the noise around him with a calm expression.
Dakdo's strength is indeed outstanding, and this kind of crushing victory is also very entertaining.
But his gaze searched more in the stands and the players' waiting area, and soon he found the figure in the iconic school uniform—Ash.
He was watching the game intently with a vibrant blue-haired girl wearing a white felt hat, their faces filled with excitement and fighting spirit.
During a break in the competition, Natsume got up and walked to the players' preparation area.
"Ash."
"Natsume-nii!" Ash exclaimed in surprise when he saw Natsume, and Hikari greeted him politely as well.
"He looks to be in good spirits," Natsume smiled, his gaze sweeping over the Poké Ball on Ash's waist.
"How are Kyogre and Kyurem doing? And Zapdos, should they have almost finished absorbing the Flame of Arena?"
As usual, Zapdos was handed over to Ash by Natsume on the eve of the competition, to absorb the competitive spirit of the tournament.
When Ash mentioned the two Pokémon Natsume had entrusted to him for training, he immediately became excited: "They're both doing great! Kyogre and Kyurem are working together even better now! And Zapdos is amazing!"
He pointed to the Zapdos that was warming up not far away.
"Natsume-nii, look! Its feathers have almost turned the color of burning flames! And, 7..."
Ash lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Recently, there seems to be a small crystal, shaped like a sports arena, glowing on its forehead!"
Upon closer inspection, Natsume indeed saw that most of Zapdos's feathers were now covered with a golden-red sheen like flowing flames, exuding power and speed.
However, at the center of its brow, a tiny, palace-shaped crystal, emitting a faint glow, was forming.
The nascent form of a divine authority, fueled by the flames of competition, is taking shape.
"Pikachu!" Let me see!
A flash of yellow lightning streaked across the sky, and the man with the middle parting immediately mounted the Mountain Giant, staring intently at its forehead.
