Chapter 448 Humans from Another World

The world suddenly fell into a deathly silence, even Zhang Heng's rapid breathing was swallowed up.

The already distorted space began to flow strangely, like boiling purple asphalt, with countless tiny chain phantoms appearing and disappearing in the void.

Sometimes it pieced together the outline of Giratina's blood-red eyes, and sometimes it transformed into a menacing ghost.

Czechrom's eyes were serious, his scarlet vertical pupils were full of vigilance, and his deep voice resounded in Zhang Heng's mind.

“Giratina, in the Reverse World, can tear through space at will. Even I can't predict where the attack will come from! In this world, it is stronger than me!”

Zhang Heng swallowed hard, his throat dry and uncomfortable. "I understand. I'll try to block Giratina's attack! You find an opportunity to strike! Then we'll escape!"

Zhang Heng tried his best to remain calm, but his palms were already soaked with sweat.

"Om~"

The water-shaped hanging scroll emitted a humming sound, like a nimble snake, circling around Zhang Heng, not only protecting him but also continuously supplying energy to the two water-type divine beasts.

It was as if it were a nuclear reactor that never stopped.

However, Zhang Heng did not feel relaxed at all; he only felt extremely passive.

Shadow Strike, Giratina's signature move, is a Ghost-type physical move with a power of 120.

Its effect is that it will always hit the opponent, and even if the opponent uses moves such as Guard or Priority to block the attack, Shadow Strike can easily break through and deal damage.

"This is a bit tricky. I currently have no means to defend against Shadow Assault."

His breathing was rapid and erratic, and his mind was frantically calculating a solution.

As a seasoned gamer, he knew better than anyone the terror of Shadow Strike—a deadly move capable of tearing through space, with unimaginable consequences if it hit.

At this moment, only two possible solutions were swirling in his mind: use the type immunity of Normal-type Pokémon for coordinated defense, or use the Okra Bead to achieve Okra Normalization and forcibly turn the tide of battle.

"Damn it!" Zhang Heng cursed under his breath.

After evolving, the Altaria lost its normal attributes, and it just so happens that it doesn't have any Titanium Crystal Beads.

Having found the key to break the deadlock, only to discover there was no corresponding keyhole, this sense of powerlessness was even more frustrating than facing Giratina's overwhelming pressure.

Martial Arts Master Xiong and Bo Dang Shui sensed Zhang Heng's unease and unleashed their power even more, seemingly also aware of the impending crisis.

Meanwhile, Zekrom's dragon scales trembled slightly, and the electricity around his body surged erratically, clearly indicating that he was also wary of this move.

The space of the Reverse World began to emit a teeth-grinding, distorting sound, and a dark purple glow seeped from every crack.

Zhang Heng knew that he didn't have much time left, but the more anxious he became, the colder he felt, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

He gripped the water-hanging scroll tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, but he still couldn't think of any way to break this deadlock.

"No! There's another trick we can try!"

The energy of the reversed world suddenly surged wildly like boiling magma.

The purple mist churned violently, transforming into countless twisted tentacles that danced wildly, filling the air with a nauseating stench of decay.

"Watch out!" Zekrom's roar exploded in Zhang Heng's mind.

Before the words were even finished, space suddenly tore apart, and a huge black rift pierced the sky.

Giratina's enormous body, nearly eight meters tall, emerged from the crack, emanating a terrifying pressure capable of devouring everything.

Giratina, carrying an overwhelming amount of Ghost-type energy, hurtled towards Zhang Heng like a meteor from the abyss of darkness.

Wherever its massive body, nearly ten meters long, went, space was easily torn apart like fragile paper, purple cracks spreading wildly, emitting a chilling shriek.

Zhang Heng looked up at this terrifying being, which seemed like a demon god descending to earth. His legs trembled uncontrollably, and his heart pounded wildly in his chest, as if it would burst out of his chest.

Fear overwhelmed him like a tidal wave, but his survival instinct in this desperate situation quickly calmed him down.

"Gigantamax Urshifu! Max Guard!"

Zhang Heng roared at the top of his lungs, his voice sounding somewhat thin amidst the howling of the reversed world, yet it conveyed a sense of determination.

The martial arts master's muscles tensed, and he let out a deafening roar.

In an instant, it was enveloped by surging, gigantic energy, its size increased exponentially, and its fur stood on end, shimmering with a bright luster.

Its palms moved rapidly, and the energy in the air quickly gathered, forming a thick and strange defensive barrier in front of it.

At the critical moment, Giratina swung its giant claw, which was covered in dark purple energy, and slammed it hard against the Max Guard.

A terrifying energy surge spread outwards, causing the entire inverted world to tremble violently.

However, the Max Guard withstood the attack steadily. Although the golden light flickered violently, it still resisted stubbornly. The runes shone brightly, and it was locked in a stalemate with Giratina's Ghost-type energy.

"You bet right! You stopped them!"

Max Guard is a special move used by Dynamax Pokémon. All status moves become Max Guard after Dynamaxing.

Max Guard can completely block the opponent's moves, preventing them from causing any damage to the user.

In other words, Max Guard is an enhanced version of Protect. Zhang Heng is gambling that a Gigantamax Pokémon using Max Guard can block an attack from a legendary Pokémon.

Perhaps it was also due to the Dynamax energy of Eternatus, but this time, it truly defended against Giratina's attack!

Giratina's blood-red vertical pupils suddenly contracted, and the surging dark purple energy around him froze for a moment.

This almost invincible divine beast in the reversed world showed a hint of human-like surprise at this moment.

The defensive barrier that should have shattered instantly under its claws instead emitted a dazzling golden light, blocking all the terrifying attacks.

"The opportunity has arrived! Let's make it tender!"

"Martial Arts Urshifu! Gigantamax Stream Combo"

"Rippling water! Water vapor!"

"Zekhrom! Lightning strike!"

With the added boost from the rain, the two water-type divine beasts became even more powerful.

As the Martial Arts Bear Master unleashed a torrent of water, he threw a punch that transformed into nine crystalline, translucent water streams. Accompanied by a roar like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down upon Giratina, they surged forward with overwhelming force.

Golden Dynamax energy flowed across the surface of each stream of water, creating ripples in the space wherever it passed.

The body of the rippling water suddenly burst out with a dazzling blue light, the air in the entire area boiled violently, and white mist rose up like a tornado.

Hidden within the white mist are countless high-temperature, high-pressure water vapors that combine to form a giant white dragon formed by the convergence of steam.

The white dragon, carrying the energy of the Gigantamax Water Stream Combo, merged with the nine phantom water streams of the Martial Arts Ursa Master, transforming into a torrent that was both powerful and agile.

"Yah~"

Giratina let out a defiant roar, flapping its six wings and unleashing a dark purple hurricane.

However, this unique water force, combining the surging and the gentle strength of water, is unstoppable.

The steam dragon that had materialized opened its massive maw, filled with steam fangs, and bit directly at Giratina's outstretched right wing, while nine phantom water streams bound its body like chains.

Wherever the high-temperature water vapor reached, the ghost-type energy on the surface of the divine beast's body melted away with a hissing sound.

At the same time, Zekrom is also unleashing his strongest signature move.

The lightning bolts erupting from the dragon's horns crashed down, the blue-purple electric light colliding violently with the water beast's golden energy, exploding in a blinding light in the reversed world.

Giratina's massive body was blasted backward, crashing through several spatial barriers, and the purple fragments it stirred up fell like a meteor shower.

"The signature moves of the three mythical beasts! Let's see how you handle them!"

As the three forces collided violently, the Reverse World let out a wail of unbearable agony.

Just as Zekrom was about to engage in close combat again, space shattered like a broken mirror, and purple void fragments flew everywhere like sharp blades.

The thick, asphalt-like mist was stirred into a boiling vortex, and from its depths came the dying wails of an ancient behemoth.

This halted Czechoslovakia's offensive.

The originally distorted chain phantom suddenly turned scarlet, like a noose soaked in blood, frantically strangling all nearby matter and energy.

Giratina's massive body crashed into the center of the collapsed space, its eerie purple energy erupting like a volcano. It roared to the sky, its six wings tearing through a hundred-meter radius of space as it spread its wings, the ferocity surging in its blood-red eyes almost solidifying.

The blood vessels beneath the divine beast's scales bulged like writhing black snakes, and with each breath, the space trembled. Dark matter gathered at the tips of its claws into a pitch-black sphere, emanating an aura capable of annihilating everything.

"Roar—! Human from another world! You and I! Let us both perish in this world of destruction!"

The roar shook the entire inverted world violently, and spiderweb-like cracks began to appear in the space that had not yet collapsed.

The ferocity surrounding Giratina materialized into countless vengeful phantoms, tearing at the surrounding energy and swallowing fragments of shattered space. With each piece devoured, the divine beast's size swelled.

Its body, originally eight meters long, quickly surpassed twenty meters. The dark matter patterns on its six wings glowed with an eerie red light, and wherever it passed, even space itself began to dissolve.

But Zhang Heng stood there dumbfounded, as if a secret buried deep in his heart had been exposed.

"What?! A human from another world, Giratina, knows me?!"

However, Giratina did not answer Zhang Heng's question. The ferocity in its blood-red eyes intensified, and dozens of dark purple cracks suddenly burst open around its body—a sign that Shadow Assault was gathering power!

"Huwu~"

At this critical moment, a voice, seemingly out of place in the tense environment, rang out, like a soft murmur as someone awakens from a dream…
