Chapter 268 - Chapter 655: Ash Appears!

The instant the word "die" left her mouth!

Buzz!

A pure, vast, irresistible pressure exploded violently with Lunala at its center.

This was not just darkness or cold. It was the ultimate intimidation formed by the Moon God's divine authority and the will of the ruler of Ultra Space fused together!

Roar! Wail! Hiss!

The swarm of Ultra Beasts in the sky instantly fell into unprecedented chaos and extreme fear.

The Guzzlord and Blacephalon charging at the very front, the ones closest to Lunala, were like being doused over the head with freezing water.

Their massive bodies stiffened abruptly. The madness in their scarlet eyes was forcibly suppressed, replaced by an instinctive terror that came from facing a higher existence.

What they let out were no longer violent roars, but fearful whimpers and shrieks. Their huge bodies curled and retreated uncontrollably, as if trying to escape that icy moonlight.

Not only them. Even the Ultra Beasts behind them, upon sensing Dusk and Lunala's cold killing intent, began crying out in fear.

["It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding! We received the Great Radiant One's order!"]

In past wars, they had never seen the Sun and Moon gods show such fury.

But today, they truly felt the threat of death.

They desperately tried to explain, terrified that they would really be suppressed by the Moon God.

With Lunala translating, Dusk sneered.

"You being controlled is your problem. Do you expect me to free you from it?"

"Fight for your own lives!"

Dusk's icy words were like a final verdict, smashing deep into the Ultra Beasts being controlled by Colress's machines.

They suddenly realized that Dusk truly dared to kill them.

"Clang!"

A sharp, resolute metallic ring filled with madness suddenly sounded.

The Kartana closest to Solgaleo had scarlet eyes where madness and fear clashed violently.

In the end, the pride of an Ultra Beast and its fear of Dusk briefly overpowered the forced control of Colress's machine.

Its blade-like limbs spun fiercely, slicing toward its own forehead with a piercing screech.

Rip!

It was as if invisible shackles had been severed. The scarlet glow in this Kartana's eyes instantly dimmed, replaced by clarity and determination after surviving disaster.

Without hesitation, it turned around, its gaze locking firmly onto the mastermind controlling everything in the sky, Colress.

Its blade pointed forward, murderous intent surging.

"Yo~"

A Pheromosa let out a sharp cry. Her elegant body burst forth with unprecedented speed.

With that terrifying velocity, she broke free from Colress's machine in an instant, turning into a streak of light too fast for the naked eye to follow, aiming straight at Colress.

Several Xurkitree gathered the chaotic electricity on their bodies. The erratic currents no longer flickered aimlessly but condensed with furious crackles.

They lashed out, forming several thick electric serpents that struck hard at the force field shield surrounding Colress's machine.

Like a chain reaction, more and more Ultra Beasts forcibly suppressed their obedience to Necrozma.

They had just believed that following Necrozma would not anger the Sun and Moon gods, but now they all realized they had overlooked something crucial.

Necrozma had already been controlled. It was no longer the Great Radiant One.

More importantly, they had underestimated a mother.

Especially those Ultra Beasts who had once followed the Sun and Moon gods' side. They knew very well what kind of person Dusk was.

During the first war between the two sides, this woman had once said that only by killing half of the Ultra Beasts could the Great Radiant One be left without Pokémon to command.

If not for the man by her side persuading her, and for the sake of leaving some strength for the "god nephew" in the future,

this woman might have already slaughtered more than half of the Ultra Beasts in this world.

"W… what?", Watching the Ultra Beasts that should have been under his control suddenly turn against him, Colress froze on his hovering device.

The sick smile on his face stiffened, then twisted into extreme shock and disbelief.

The tide of destruction he had carefully planned, the Ultra Beast army he had placed such hope in, had completely defected under just one sentence and one glance of threat from the other side.

Seeing the Ultra Beasts that should have been his blades now rushing toward him, Colress felt his entire worldview collapsing.

'Aren't Ultra Beasts supposed to obey Necrozma?'

'Why is it different in this world!'

Colress screamed, his voice distorted from overwhelming shock.

"You lowly creatures! You're supposed to obey Necrozma's orders! How… how dare you attack me?"

His horrified gaze locked tightly onto Dusk, as if trying to find an answer from her.

Dusk still stood steadily on Lunala's broad, moon-disc-like back. Moonlight flowed around her, highlighting her frost-cold face.

Facing Colress's hysterical questioning, Dusk merely tilted her head slightly. A faint curve lifted at the corner of her lips, subtle yet enough to chill every Ultra Beast to the core.

"Take your questions with you to hell."

With Dusk's icy words, Colress lost all will to fight. Only one thought remained in his mind.

Run! He had to escape this madwoman.

Even within Team Rainbow Rocket, Colress had never seen someone this insane, someone who ignored the bigger picture and everything else.

He ordered several Genesect to block the overwhelming swarm of Ultra Beasts. The propulsion beneath his hovering device flared with blinding light as he desperately tried to break through the encirclement and return to Necrozma's side.

Over there, although gods like Groudon and Rayquaza were present, at least Necrozma would still obey his command. He would not be completely alone.

But just as he broke free from the encirclement and was fleeing madly, a boy wearing a cap suddenly appeared on a rooftop ahead.

A Pikachu rested on his shoulder. Beside him stood a Pidgeot and a Squirtle.

"Pidgeot, take Squirtle up into the air. Go stop that guy!"
