"Intersected Force is the power combining Thunder and Lightning with Flame that Monferno was using during the fight just now."
[I still don't get it, what's there to master.]
"Let me finish!"
"It hasn't mastered the perfect Intersected Force yet because the burden this power places on its body is too great."
"That is to say, its physical strength isn't sufficient to handle the perfect Intersected Force."
"Its wish means... uh, you can think of it as wanting to possess a stronger, much stronger, almost indestructible physique."
After Fang Yuan finished speaking, Monferno immediately began to clap.
Exactly, exactly.
That's right.
Really, you humans love to beat around the bush.
[Now I get it.]Kira Pray sighed.
To enhance physical strength... such a simple wish, and you made it so complicated!
[I can do that too! But whether it can master some Intersected Force in the end, I don't know.]Kira Pray looked at Fang Yuan, Little Hoopa, and Monferno, then scratched its big head.
"Waaah!! (I was just saying, I'd be happy as long as my physique strengthens and I don't get hurt so easily.)" Monferno was quite content.
It wanted Kira Pray to create a world where only Monferno wouldn't get hurt.
As for the Eight Gates, Monferno also knew the hope was slim.
After all, Kira Pray's power seems still too limited to involve itself in, or alter, things of the Legendary Realm.
Monferno isn't greedy; it doesn't have Eevee's greed. If all else failed, it would be content with mastering just the Seventh Door.
As Monferno finished speaking, the other Pokémon still looked at Monferno unfavorably... Monferno was cutting off their future path!!
If the wish were to come true, what would happen to their future breakthrough BUFFs, wuwuwu~
"Can you do it?" Fang Yuan looked at Kira Pray.
"This wish, Hoopa can also make it happen!" Little Hoopa suddenly puffed up its cheeks.
"Waaah?" "Really?" Both Monferno and Fang Yuan turned to look at Hoopa.
"If Hoopa had its former power..."
Then it could just randomly summon a Legendary Pokémon that excels at taking hits... say, and then use the Move "Defense Equally Divide" to share its physical strength with Monferno.
Just that... Hoopa isn't sure how long it could maintain it, but with its capacity, even if it's permanent, it should be able to do it! Probably, maybe, possibly.
"Waaah!"
"Then stop talking."
Hearing that it needs to regain its power to fulfill the wish, Fang Yuan and Monferno turned back to Kira Pray.
Better to rely on Kira Pray, Hoopa isn't reliable.
Hoopa: (.﹏.*) Hoopa is very angry.
[Hmmm... using the power of a comet, Kira Pray could enhance Monferno's physique.] Kira Pray thought for a moment.
"Banana? (Star Body Sculpting?)" "Ao wang? (Star Tempering Major Method?)"
This is a high-level body refining method... Brother Monkey is about to soar.
"Waaah. (Is it permanent?)" Monferno asked the adorable Kira Pray, while giving Venusaur, who was munching on melon seeds, and Mane Rock Werewolf a glare. Did you really take Luo Kuo's words to heart? Do you understand why you're at the bottom?!! Trusting Luo Kuo over Fang Yuan.
[It should be, should be, right?] Kira Pray bit its finger, not very sure either.
"Let's give it a try then," Fang Yuan said.
It sounds rather like the Cosmic Power Moves...
Cosmic Power: Drawing on mysterious power from the universe to boost one's Defense and Special Defense.
Though there are over a dozen Pokémon that can learn this Move, when they use it, it's a way of strengthening their physique.
And from the looks of Kira Pray, it seems ready to draw the power of a Millennium Comet from the universe to help Monferno enhance its physique.
Seems reliable!
Without further ado...
Kira Pray immediately reopened its third eye, drawing star power from the comet with the Eye of Truth and used its miraculous superpower, with the comet's energy as fuel, to strengthen Monferno...
The dazzling white light of the comet showered upon Kira Pray, coating it in a mysterious aura, and simultaneously, the bright starlight was reflected onto Monferno. Just like it had done for Armed Magnetic Monster before, Kira Pray was now about to fulfill Monferno's wish.
...
...
A moment later.
Surrounded by the dazzling white starlight, Monferno seemed almost as if it were evolving.
Of course, it wasn't actually evolving.
Fang Yuan couldn't help but wonder whether the remakes of Diamond and Pearl had been released after his transmigration and if Monferno had gotten a Mega Evolution. He hadn't found any related Super Stone yet, so it probably wasn't happening...
"Waaah."
As Fang Yuan sighed inwardly, Monferno let out a comfortable cry.
At that moment, with the cosmic power of the comet infusing its body, Monferno felt indescribably comfortable, as if the tens of trillions of cells within its body were being nourished. Amidst the swirling starlight, Monferno could clearly sense that the injuries Celebi and Milotic hadn't completely healed were slowly recovering.
Not because of some external power, but due to its own healing ability.
The starlight was fortifying its physique; as its body strength increased, its self-healing capability was rapidly improving as well.
To Monferno, this sensation felt as though...
It could already easily endure the strain brought about by Thunder Flame Mode Seventh Door.
"QAQ Waaah!!!"
