—------------------—
Mammon truly 'loved deeply' Ho-Oh.
Although that colorful giant fire chicken didn't seem to have a good impression of Mammon, Mammon knew his own business.
It wasn't strange that his character and style of action were not favored by Ho-Oh.
But didn't that highlight Ho-Oh's 'righteousness'?
Even in this situation, Ho-Oh still helped him three times with major problems!
Mammon believed that Ho-Oh truly played a very important role in his growth.
So Mammon really wanted to help Ho-Oh enrich its bird life and leave behind legendary stories that would be remembered for generations!
A top-tier legendary battle caused by Shinny Rayquaza, Dragon God Kyurem, and Evil Hoopa.
Ho-Oh participated in these three battles and ultimately emerged victorious!
Do you know what 'only playing high-stakes games' means? That's what it means!
But unfortunately, the three opportunities were used up, otherwise Mammon would have really wanted to call Ho-Oh over to fight Ultra Necrozma.
Hmm, you say 7 vs 1 isn't difficult at all?
It's actually very simple. To increase Ho-Oh's sense of participation, Mammon could recall a few legendary Pokémon, raising the difficulty of this battle by just 'a tiny bit'.
If it could win in the end, then Ho-Oh would be awesome (tough enough to take a beating)!
"Next time I fight Arceus, I should really bring Ho-Oh along."
Mammon pondered, as he had already promised Giratina that he would help it challenge Arceus.
But this battle definitely needed careful preparation.
Mammon felt that such a challenge was destined to be passed down through the ages!
Didn't the story of that ancient Hisui warrior, who challenged Arceus with ten Pokémon to prove the resilience and growth of humanity, get passed down?
Mammon challenging Arceus with many legendary Pokémon, why couldn't it be recorded in historical books?
Not only would it be recorded, Mammon would also have his own people write this biography!
Therefore, Mammon felt that Ho-Oh must also participate in such a historic moment.
As for whether Ho-Oh would be willing to come, that would not be up to it.
Hoopa's 'Loot' could save Ho-Oh a lot of travel time; it wouldn't even need to fly over strenuously!
"Ho-Oh will definitely thank me, and maybe its attitude towards me will even change."
Mammon's lips curled into a slight smile; he was very satisfied just thinking about that scene.
I didn't even forget you when fighting Arceus, big fire chicken, shouldn't you thank me?
Hmm, no problem.
Just as Mammon was thinking about who else to call when challenging Arceus, the battle in the sky was still incredibly fierce.
Ultra Necrozma's strength was truly astonishing, and most importantly, its entire body was a 'weapon'!
Its body, composed of 'light', could shoot powerful lasers from any part, making it difficult for it to be caught off guard defensively.
So even fighting six against one, Ultra Necrozma's situation had not collapsed.
Otherwise, even if it were Dragon God Kyurem and Black Rayquaza, they would definitely be in a completely disadvantageous position by now.
But Ultra Necrozma could temporarily hold on!
Although it was at a disadvantage, its situation had indeed not completely collapsed.
However, this state could only be maintained for so long; the longer it dragged on, the worse Ultra Necrozma's situation would become.
Gigantamax Eternatus loomed overhead, ready to unleash powerful multiple Dynamax Cannons at any moment.
And Black Steed King, Dark Lugia, and Primal Kyogre could launch long-range attacks from three different directions.
Sword King Zacian and Origin Forme Giratina were responsible for close-quarters combat from the front, pulling Ultra Necrozma's attention.
Even as strong as Ultra Necrozma, its situation was gradually shifting from a disadvantage to a losing one, with no chance of turning the tide.
As time passed minute by minute, Ultra Necrozma's injuries grew heavier, and the golden light emanating from its body gradually dimmed.
It was already on the verge of collapsing.
"Truly amazing~!"
Mammon looked at Ultra Necrozma, still resisting, and couldn't help but exclaim.
It was truly amazing that Ultra Necrozma could hold on for so long in a six-on-one situation; even Sword King Zacian and the others were basically injured.
The only one who hadn't been hit by Ultra Necrozma was Giratina.
Relying on the bug-like move Shadow Sneak and skillfully opened spatial-temporal portals, Giratina remained unscathed to this day.
Bang!!
Finally, seizing another opportunity, Giratina's Shadow Sneak once again slammed heavily into Ultra Necrozma.
Ultra Necrozma let out a cry of pain, and its massive body finally lost control and began to tip over.
At the same time, a colossal crimson beam of light descended from the sky, taking the opportunity to blast Ultra Necrozma.
Boom!
The Dynamax Cannon exploded on Ultra Necrozma, and Ultra Necrozma crashed heavily onto the devastated desolate island below.
"Mammon! You won!"
Seeing this, Lillie was very surprised and cheered.
"Mammon is so amazing~ As expected of the human I acknowledge!"
Lunala's telepathy was also filled with excitement. Mammon was too strong; he could actually defeat Ultra Necrozma.
To be honest, Lunala had a lot of psychological pressure regarding Necrozma.
After all, Necrozma not only naturally countered it and Solgaleo, but Necrozma also had a strong 'appetite' for them.
This really made the big bat anxious!
And now, Necrozma had been defeated by Mammon, so from now on, it no longer had to worry about Necrozma.
Because it was protected by Mammon!
Next time Necrozma dared to cause it trouble, Lunala could completely stand with its hands on its hips, chest out and head held high.

"Keep it low-key, Reshiram, go down and take a look."
Mammon pinched the soft flesh on Lillie's little tummy and said with a smile.
Reshiram descended slightly.
"Ugh~"
And Lillie, noticing Mammon's action, couldn't help but blush, pressing down on Mammon's restless hand.
"Mammon~ Don't pinch there."
She didn't dislike Mammon's affectionate gestures, but the flesh in that spot... was it because she had been eating more recently?
"It feels great, you know. If you don't give me a satisfactory reason, I refuse." Mammon smiled and pinched it again.
"Oh, Mammon, am I a little fat?"
Lillie pouted, then looked a little worried.
In reality, Lillie wasn't fat at all; her figure was definitely on the slender side, but girls are just like that.
Lillie was already thinking about whether to ask Jirachi for a wish to get rid of any excess fat on her body.
"Not at all, I like Lillie just the way she is now. If you were too thin, I wouldn't like it."
Mammon hugged Lillie a little tighter, embracing the girl completely, and whispered in her ear with a smile.
"Ugh… If Mammon likes it, then I like it too."
Lillie spoke shyly in a very soft voice, but her tone was light and joyful.
If your boyfriend likes your body, isn't that truly happy?
Mammon, with his keen hearing, naturally heard it.
Mammon turned his head and heavily kissed Lillie's fair little face. This little girlfriend was truly too cute; Mammon couldn't resist.
Lillie felt the touch on her face and couldn't help but shrink back, both shy and happy.
"It seems like it's almost done."
Mammon really wanted to continue playing with Lillie, but there was something more important now.
His gaze fell downwards. Reshiram flapped its wings, and a strong wind blew, instantly dispersing the smoke and dust.
In a deep crater, the fallen Ultra Necrozma lay there, its aura weak.
It was truly very weak now; the golden light on its body was incredibly dim, as if it could be extinguished at any moment.
Ultra Necrozma lay on its back, its dragon eyes looking at the human boy on Reshiram's back in mid-air, its eyes filled with unwillingness.
But it had truly reached its limit now, and even…
"Clang…"
Suddenly, Ultra Necrozma let out a painful groan, and light shone from its body.
In a short while, the light dissipated, and Ultra Necrozma was gone from its original spot.
A weakened Necrozma and Solgaleo lay on the ground, both Pokémon looking completely drained, even their breathing was heavy gasps.
Seeing Solgaleo reappear, Lunala hurriedly flew down, looking at Solgaleo with concern.
"It's fine, its internal energy is basically depleted. It just needs more rest."
Reshiram also landed. Mammon came to Solgaleo's side, observed it for a while, then said to Lunala.
Then Mammon extended his hand, and a warm golden light continuously spread over Solgaleo, healing its injuries.
Although Arceus's healing effect was not as good as small sacred ash, it was not weaker than high-grade Potions.
Most importantly, it consumed very little of Mammon's spiritual power. Otherwise, if it were Viridian Power, Mammon would rather use high-grade Potion sprays, as he wasn't short on money.
Using too much Viridian Power truly caused severe dizziness.
In the special edition, Yellow experienced a situation where she almost fainted from overuse of Viridian Power.
After giving Solgaleo a simple treatment to ensure it wouldn't pass out, Mammon looked at Necrozma.
"It seems you're not my opponent, Necrozma."
Mammon smiled at Necrozma. In fact, when the battle turned unfavorable midway, Ultra Necrozma wasn't without thoughts of escaping.
For Ultra Necrozma, if it couldn't win, it couldn't win. Running away wasn't shameful, especially against such a despicable group attack.
But it couldn't escape!
Eternatus and the others surrounded it from all directions, with wave after wave of relentless attacks; how could it run?
"…"
Necrozma didn't respond, just lay on its back, looking at the dark sky, its mind blank and empty.
Its body was not lacking in light now; after all, it had 'eaten' its fill of light, whether from Solgaleo or the entire Alola world.
It was now in a purely severely injured and weakened state, aching all over, but different from the pain of lacking light.
So Necrozma was now in a rational and conscious state, which meant communication was possible.
This was good for Mammon.
"What are you thinking?"
Mammon asked again.
However, Necrozma still showed no intention of responding.
"Alright, it seems you're unwilling to communicate with me, but I can understand. You don't like humans, do you?"
Mammon wasn't surprised either.
Necrozma glanced at Mammon sideways. Wasn't that obvious? It hated humans!
Back then, it provided the light that the humans of Ultra Megalopolis needed to survive, but how did they repay it?
They took away the 'light' it depended on for survival and sealed it away.
"I've learned about your past, and I know the grievances you suffered back then. Do you want revenge?"
Mammon spoke to Necrozma.
"?"
Necrozma was stunned. What was this human saying?
"I can help you get revenge. Those who harmed you back then are long dead, but their descendants are still around, though not many are left."
"It's ironic, isn't it?"
The curve of Mammon's lips was half mockery, half sarcasm.
"They hurt you for your 'light' and sealed you, but without you, that world fell into a death countdown, stepping into the abyss little by little."
"As of now, that world is basically 'dead'. A world without 'light' will ultimately not 'live' long."
"So, do you want to destroy those last few 'living sprouts'? I can go with you."
Mammon looked at Necrozma, his voice not loud, but his words were clear.
The colorful part of Necrozma's head flashed continuously as it stared at this human who claimed to want to help it.
'Human, what do you want? Why do you want to help me?'
A low, hoarse telepathic message sounded. This was Necrozma's telepathy.
"It's very simple."
Mammon smiled.
"Because I want you, I like you, Necrozma."
Mammon's unhesitating direct attack left Necrozma speechless.
