Pokemon: Reborn As Ash, I'll Conquer Every League

Chapter 139 Lugia’s Birth

The battle ended, and Ash went up to congratulate her: "Misty, congratulations! You’ve gotten all four South Cross gym badges."

"Misty, congratulations on qualifying for the Orange League Winner’s Cup," Luana also congratulated Misty.

"The Orange League Winner’s Cup?" Misty looked at Luana in confusion.

She had thought that the Orange League would be like the Indigo Plateau Conference, but it seemed the competition format was different!

"Yes, the Orange League’s events are different from other regional Leagues. The so-called Orange League Winner’s Cup is a battle against the South Cross’s Chief Trainer," Luana explained.

The Orange League actually wanted to make the competition as high-level as the Indigo Plateau Conference, but the region’s strength didn’t match; the quality of Trainers in the entire Orange League was too poor, and the islands’ resources were also limited, making it difficult to attract Trainers from other regions.

"Since he can become the Orange League Chief Trainer, his strength must be very strong, right?" Serena asked curiously.

Luana nodded and said, "Of course, it’s not easy to beat him. The Chief Trainer has a Dragonite, a rare Pokémon from the Kanto region. Misty, you really need to work hard!"

"Dragonite? I will. By the way, Aunt Luana, where will the Winner’s Cup be held?" Misty asked.

"At the Citrus Coliseum on Citrus Island. All previous Orange League Contests have been held there."

"Okay, then our next stop is Citrus Island!"

...

After finishing the Gym challenge, Ash and the others were not in a hurry to leave, choosing instead to stay on Kumquat Island for a few more days of fun. After all, Professor Oak covered all expenses, and Ash always felt like he was missing out on a huge opportunity if he didn’t take advantage of freebies.

While they were enjoying their vacation.

Above Shamouti Island, not far from them, a massive airborne fortress was moving towards the three islands guarding Shamouti Island.

In the fortress’s command room, the man seated on the central throne looked at the content displayed on the screen and whispered, "What I want is not the Fire God, not the Thunder God, and certainly not the ice god, but the Sea God."

"According to data and documented records, the Fire God is the legendary Pokémon Moltres, the Thunder God is Zapdos, and the ice god is Articuno," a cold voice echoed in the empty command room.

This was the voice of the fortress’s artificial intelligence.

"Moltres, Zapdos, Articuno—none of them are the target. They guard Shamouti Island merely fulfilling their duties. Although they are all legendary Pokémon, their power is insufficient to realize my ideal. I need power beyond them!" The man’s voice reverberated in the command room.

"Suspected legendary Pokémon life signs detected," the artificial intelligence displayed the detected information on the radar scan.

Upon hearing this, a hint of excitement appeared on the man’s face. "Such a quick discovery. What’s closest to us?"

"Moltres of Fire Island!" the artificial intelligence responded.

"Mm."

The man’s chair quickly ascended, and soon he was in front of the fortress’s control panel. As the man pressed a button, the fortress launched several ice-sealed bombs at the island where Moltres was located.

The bombs exploded on Moltres’s island, freezing everything within the covered area.

As the number of bombs increased, the entire island gradually turned into an ice island.

In a cave somewhere on the island, a red light suddenly appeared, then the thick ice covering the cave entrance melted. A sharp bird cry resounded through the sky, and the next moment, a large flaming bird soared out of the cave.

Seeing Moltres appear, the flying fortress ejected several electrified metal rings.

Moltres didn’t even have time to attack the fortress before it was ensnared by the metal rings and drawn into the fortress.

"The legendary Moltres. My collection has grown by one," the man said calmly, as if Moltres were just an ordinary Pokémon to him.

"Next is Zapdos, then Articuno, and finally the legendary Sea God!"

With Moltres taken away, climatic issues arose, and the reaction underwater was even more intense. The previously gentle ocean currents gradually showed signs of losing control, and various Pokémon living in the sea became restless.

At the bottom of an ocean current not far from the Orange Islands.

A massive figure detected the anomaly and was slowly approaching Shamouti Island.

.....

On Shamouti Island, within an ancient ruin, a Slowking stood on the ruin’s altar, gazing at Moltres’s island.

"The Fire God, the Thunder God, the ice god—all are sacred and inviolable. Violating taboos will provoke the wrath of heaven and Earthquake, leading the world down a path of destruction..."

.....

Serena stood by the hotel window, looking at the gloomy sky, and said with some regret, "What strange weather! It was just sunny a moment ago, why did it suddenly turn so gloomy, and it looks like it’s going to pour."

"The weather at sea is unpredictable. This rain should pass quickly," Misty said.

"It doesn’t seem quite right. Look at the news, not only has the weather in the Orange Islands changed drastically, but it’s also changed in other places. It’s snowing in summer; this weather is very abnormal," Tracy said, showing them some of the latest news on his phone.

"Weather change?" Ash seemed to recall something. He led Tracy to the window, pointed in a direction, and asked, "Tracy, let me ask you something, what island is in that direction?"

"Over there? Let me think!" Tracy pondered for a moment and said, "That place seems to be called Shamouti Island. There are three special uninhabited islands guarding that island, and I heard there are also ruins with records about the Sea God Lugia there."

"Indeed!"

Ash was certain. Isn’t this the plot of the special Lugia’s Birth?

"What’s wrong, Ash?" Serena looked at Ash in confusion.

Ash didn’t answer Serena directly, but instead asked, "Do you want to see the three legendary birds and Lugia up close?"

"Ash, don’t you already have two of the three legendary birds with you? And you also have Lugia," Misty said.

"I mean, the legendary ones. If you want to get close to them, go to the island’s shops and buy some thick, warm clothes. I’ll wait for you at the pier."

After speaking, Ash made a call to Professor Oak while hurrying to the Pokémon Center on Kumquat Island.

"Ash seems to know something is going to happen!" Tracy said thoughtfully.

However, by the time he reacted, Serena and Misty had already followed Ash’s footsteps and left the hotel.

Their purpose was clear: they headed straight for the island’s shopping center, bought some thick clothes, and then rushed to the pier.
