Xia Huanao rubbed his temples dreamily. "Mew, do you know where Kupu and the others are? Can you take me to see him?"
Mew thought for a moment, then firmly refused Xia Huanao. "No, I won't take you to see Kupu. I don't like his personality. He even snatched things from my hands last time. I hate him."
Xia Huanao grabbed Mew's small hand. "Then I won't go see Kupu. You can take me to see others. For example, Kupu-Butterfree. I think you two must have a good relationship, right?"
Mew still ignored him, only enjoying Xia Huanao's efforts to pacify him. His two hands held Xia Huanao's hands, rubbing them more and more vigorously, as if he wanted to rub all his fur off. After pacifying Mew for a while, Xia Huanao turned to look at Mewtwo. If Mew could act childish, then what about Mewtwo? His Sister Meng should be much more mature.
As expected, Mewtwo nodded, then came over, grabbed Mew by the scruff of his neck, and lifted him up. Mew could only reluctantly poke a hole beside himself. "Let's go. I'll take you to Kupu-Mewtwo."
Seeing that they were about to go find Kupu and the others, Xia Huanao quickly called out to Miyazaki Sakura. "Sakura-chan, if Shisui comes looking for me tomorrow, please tell them I'm busy with something."
Miyazaki Sakura nodded in agreement, but then turned around and shouted, "Don't call me Sakura-chan!"
Xia Huanao then left the shrine with Mew and Mewtwo.
We will not discuss where Xia Huanao went to find Kupu-Mewtwo. Let's talk about Shen Yu. After waking up, she was surprised to find that she was not held tightly in Xia Huanao's arms. She thought, "Did Xia Huanao sleepwalk? He didn't take advantage of me? Usually, when I wake up, Xia Huanao is hugging me. Why is he so well-behaved today?"
Then she looked around and realized that Xia Huanao was gone. Fortunately, Xia Huanao had left a note saying he had gone out on business, which prevented Shen Yu from panicking.
During breakfast, Yu Longdu asked, "Where's Old Xia? He wouldn't have gone to that kind of place, would he? That's not good."
Shen Yu took out Xia Huanao's note. "Xia Xia went to the shrine in advance. He told us not to worry."
Yu Longdu continued to tempt fate. "Night raid on the shrine maiden? This kind of plot is rare even in games. Xia Huanao really knows how to play."
As soon as he said that, he knew he had messed up. Yu Linglong and Yu Rui grabbed his ears from either side. "What did you just say? Your interests are very broad. Hand it all over to be destroyed, or you'll be in trouble."
After breakfast, everyone went to the shrine and saw a shrine maiden sweeping the ground at the entrance. Mu Shisui asked, "Good morning, Suzuko. Has Xia Huanao arrived?"
Suzuko bowed slightly. "Good morning, Miss Mu. I haven't seen him today. Are these your friends?"
"Yes, these are my friends. Is Sakura-lan here?"
"Yes, both of them are here. Please follow me."
Everyone followed Suzuko to Miyazaki Sakura. From Miyazaki Sakura, they heard that Xia Huanao had been taken away by Mew and Mewtwo. Although they were no longer very worried, they still wanted to know where he had gone.
"We don't know, but he should be looking for something called 'bloomdoom' or something."
"Bloomdoom? What is that?"
Mu Shisui was the first to react. "He's going to look for bloomdoom? Then it should be fine. We'll just wait for him to come back."
"Shisui, you know what Little Xiazi is looking for, don't you?"
"Yes, but since he didn't say anything, I should keep it a secret for him."
...
While Shen Yu and the others were playing in the shrine, Xia Huanao was standing on a mountain peak, shivering from the cold. "No, are you sure this is the place to find Kupu-Mewtwo? It's so cold here, I think it's more suitable for finding an Articuno or that ice pop."
As he spoke, Xia Huanao sneezed and rubbed his hands. "Did we go to the wrong place in the blink of an eye?"
Xia Huanao looked at the surrounding environment. The sky was overcast, and dark clouds churned overhead, casting a heavy shadow over him, making Xia Huanao feel immense pressure. He couldn't help but recall a poem: "A thousand miles of yellow clouds dim the white sun, the north wind blows wild geese, and snow falls heavily." Although that was yellow clouds and this was dark clouds, bad weather is always the same.
Suddenly, a lightning bolt struck right next to Xia Huanao's feet. Xia Huanao shivered. "This place should be for Zapdos!"
A shadow slowly descended from the sky, and it was indeed Kupu-Mewtwo, crackling with lightning all over his body.
"It's rare to see you two bringing a human to find me."
Kupu-Mewtwo leaned close to Xia Huanao and gently tapped his head. Xia Huanao felt a crackling current course through him, and his hair stood on end. Xia Huanao exhaled and thought to himself that Mew was right; Kupu-Mewtwo's personality was indeed quite bad.
Mew and Mewtwo pushed Xia Huanao forward. "He wants to challenge your trial. You deal with it."
Normally, humans would show some respect and go easy in such situations. However, Kupu-Mewtwo's way of thinking was different from humans', and Mew was floating behind Xia Huanao, punching and kicking him. The two Pokémon quickly reached a consensus: beat him to death!
Kupu-Mewtwo spread his arms, and with a shift in space, Xia Huanao and Mew were transported to Kupu-Mewtwo's domain. Xia Huanao looked at the small island with a dazed expression. He then realized that this space was probably where the four Kupu lived together. Mewtwo could be anywhere, Butterfree lived in the forest, Moomoo lived on the grassland, and Tapu-Fini lived in the sea. One space could indeed house four Pokémon.
Kupu-Mewtwo landed on the beach and pointed at Xia Huanao, who, in return, took out his Poké Ball. "Come on, let me witness the power of Z-Moves!"
Although Kupu-Mewtwo was an electric-type Pokémon, Xia Huanao decided to use Greninja to battle. After all, the other Pokémon had type advantages, but their combat power varied.
The battle began. Kupu-Mewtwo's body emitted electric waves, and intense currents condensed into an Electric Terrain, enveloping everyone. Mew touched his skin. "I hate this terrain. I'll hide far away first."
Xia Huanao quickly commanded Greninja to change its attribute first.
"Greninja, use Ice Beam!"
Although Greninja's Ice Beam was quick to start, Kupu-Mewtwo played dirty and unleashed a Guardian of Alola right away. Xia Huanao had always thought Kupu-Mewtwo would use electric-type moves. In that case, no matter how you attacked, he could stall with hit-and-run tactics. But with Guardian of Alola, who could withstand that?
Although this attack would not necessarily incapacitate them, it was unavoidable. Guardian of Alola was too large, and no matter what Greninja did, it couldn't dodge it. It had to take the hit head-on, which was suicidal!
The giant Kupu-Mewtwo punched out. Although Greninja tried its best to resist, it was still sent flying backward and was seriously injured. Xia Huanao felt the ground shake violently and was very grateful. Fortunately, it was in this space. If Kupu-Mewtwo had unleashed a Guardian of Alola like that on the mountain peak earlier, he would have met his end.
Greninja jumped up from the ground and looked at Kupu-Mewtwo, who was slightly weakened by the powerful Guardian of Alola. Greninja flashed forward, holding a Water Shuriken. Just as the shuriken was about to hit Kupu-Mewtwo, Kupu-Mewtwo raised a hand and sent a Thunderbolt flying towards Greninja.
"Greninja, do a front flip to dodge!"
Greninja flipped over the Thunderbolt with a front flip, and Kupu-Mewtwo took advantage of Greninja's front flip to flash over and punch Greninja. Fortunately, it wasn't hit by the Thunderbolt.
Xia Huanao took a deep breath, watching Greninja completely at a disadvantage. He wanted to try to use the power of Bond Transformation to counter Kupu-Mewtwo. Just as Xia Huanao closed his eyes, a cute Pokémon floated over and held his hand. Xia Huanao felt a coolness on his wrist and instinctively opened his eyes. He saw Kupu-Butterfree floating beside him, and in his hand, cold to the touch, was a Z-Ring.
"Kupu-Butterfree, are you asking me to use the power of Z-Moves?"
Kupu-Butterfree waved its hands reassuringly, but Xia Huanao was not happy. "Kupu-Butterfree, even though you gave me the Z-Ring, you forgot to give me the Z-Crystal."
Kupu-Butterfree bit its hand. It had accidentally forgotten. It quickly and shyly returned to the forest to find a Z-Crystal for Xia Huanao. Kupu-Mewtwo, seeing that Kupu-Butterfree was going to help Xia Huanao use Z-Moves, watched with its arms crossed.
Kupu-Butterfree searched for a long time and then came out of the forest holding a blue crystal. Xia Huanao took the crystal. "This is a Water Z, right?"
Xia Huanao thought for a long time. What was the Water-type Z-Move? It was right there in his mind, but he couldn't recall it.
The system gestured wildly in his mind. "This move, 'Oceanic Operetta.' Hurry up and finish it quickly!"
Xia Huanao rolled up his sleeves. "Okay, Greninja, let's use our Z-power to defeat all enemies! Oceanic Operetta!"
Z-Moves, in Xia Huanao's previous life, were criticized for their ridiculous poses. Xia Huanao also thought this way of playing was too silly, so although he used Water Z to face the enemy, his movements were inevitably distorted.
Looking at the move called "Oceanic Operetta," which only sent out a single Water Shuriken, all the Pokémon present were stunned. Could it be that the tacit understanding between these two was so poor?
