As for the final clown.
A humanoid Pokémon that had some connection to the image of a clown.
There was only one.
Only Mr. Mime.
However,
The problem was that although this Pokémon could not be considered especially powerful, it was still quite rare.
And it also seemed to enjoy living in cities, coexisting with humans.
Although Shiko did not really want to enter a human city,
In order to complete the final member of the Dark Masters,
Shiko could only go all out.
After locking onto a direction,
A moment later, he arrived above the largest central base city in the Great Axia Alliance.
The place was bustling with noise.
Crowded, lively streams of people could be seen everywhere on the streets.
Shiko did not rush to land.
Instead, he slowed down.
He flew slowly through the sky while scanning the area below in search of his target.
After more than ten minutes,
After sweeping across most of the city,
Shiko finally found his target in a café on a street corner.
Mm!
It looked pretty good.
Its aura was quite strong.
Its body was also very sturdy.
It was even an Elite Four-level Mr. Mime.
That was enough.
In the next second,
Shiko transformed into a streak of golden light and dove down.
Before everyone and Mr. Mime itself could even react,
He successfully took Mr. Mime and silently left the place without a trace.
Only after they had flown into midair
Did Mr. Mime realize that it was no longer in the café.
Instead, it was in the sky,
Being carried through the air by a Pokémon clad in golden armor!
What was going on?
Mr. Mime was stunned.
How had it suddenly ended up flying in the sky in the blink of an eye?
Mr. Mime instinctively tried to struggle free.
But no matter how it moved,
It could not break free from Shiko's grasp at all.
Just as it panicked and prepared to launch an attack to escape,
Shiko had already sensed its intention.
In that instant,
Mr. Mime's movements were completely suppressed.
It had no way to break free from his control.
Boom!!
A powerful aura was released.
Just the faintest trace of that aura leaking out
Made Mr. Mime immediately become completely obedient.
It also made it clearly understand
That the being before it was a terrifying existence beyond anything it could imagine.
And so,
Mr. Mime directly resigned itself to fate.
It allowed Shiko to continue carrying it through the air.
The golden streak of light drew an arc through the sky.
Finally,
It descended into a deserted woodland in the wild.
Looking at Shiko standing before it,
Mr. Mime was nervous and uneasy.
Judging from the aura the other party had released earlier,
He was absolutely an incomparably powerful Pokémon.
That was called Pressure.
The one standing before it was very likely a First-tier Legendary.
Then came the question.
What did such a powerful First-tier Legendary
Want with an ordinary Pokémon like itself?
Mr. Mime was very nervous, a little worried, and also somewhat curious.
However,
Shiko had no intention of explaining anything to it.
He only wanted to end this quickly.
He wanted to hurry up and modify the final member of the Dark Masters.
Tap!!!
His alloy claws lightly rested on Mr. Mime's shoulder.
The psychic waves around Mr. Mime instantly tightened from nervousness.
Then,
Before it could even speak,
It felt an incomparably powerful energy.
Immediately afterward, a powerful consciousness surged straight into its mind.
In an instant,
Its ownership and control over its body were completely overridden.
Its own consciousness
Could only curl up silently in a corner and watch.
Connection complete.
A 3D diagram of Mr. Mime's energy nodes instantly appeared in Shiko's mind.
Then,
He began pulling, outlining, and reshaping it little by little according to the image of Piedmon in his memories.
But this time,
The progress began to slow down.
In fact,
Shiko could clearly feel
That when he pushed those energy nodes,
It had already started to become difficult.
At first,
He thought the problem lay with him.
He thought it was a sign that his own energy was about to run dry after this repeated, high-difficulty, continuous use.
But after thinking about it carefully, that was not right.
He had absorbed the energy of Arceus's Plates.
That was the pure Origin Power that had created the universe.
In other words,
He was now the center of this attribute power.
It would be extremely difficult for him to truly run dry.
Even if he really did run dry,
The countless streams of energy throughout the universe would surge toward him and replenish him.
There was absolutely no way a true exhaustion situation would appear.
Then,
No!
To be more precise,
The problem should lie with the Piedmon he wanted to modify this Pokémon into.
However, the more difficult it felt,
The more motivated Shiko became.
Did this not happen to prove
That the Piedmon he modified would become even more complete?
Shiko immediately focused all his attention.
With full concentration, he began pulling at those fine energy nodes.
Time passed second by second.
The Mr. Mime before him
Slowly began to reveal Piedmon's outline.
This scene
Continued for an entire hour before finally ending.
The time spent
Was even longer than the time he had taken to modify the previous three Pokémon combined.
Another ten minutes passed.
Shiko finally let out a breath of relief.
He withdrew that consciousness
From Mr. Mime's body.
Looking at the figure before him,
Shiko relaxed.
A relieved smile appeared on his face.
The one standing before him
Was no longer Mr. Mime at all.
Instead, it was a brand-new Pokémon wearing a black-and-white mask,
Clown boots,
And two crossed longswords on its back.
The corner of its mouth carried an alluring smile.
It looked frighteningly dangerous.
This Pokémon's entire body radiated a god-level, complete, and dangerous aura.
Piedmon!
Good!
It was not a waste of all the time I spent!
It has finally been modified successfully!
Shiko nodded in satisfaction
While checking Piedmon's information panel.
In the next second,
A translucent, pale-blue data panel appeared before him.

Hiss!!
Looking at the information on this data panel,
Shiko could not help sucking in a breath.
This…
This was far too exaggerated!
The previous Machinedramon, MetalSeadramon, and Puppetmon were already very powerful!
He had not expected
That Piedmon, the leader of the Dark Masters,
Would actually be a level stronger than them!
Not only was its level slightly higher than theirs,
Its potential had also reached First-tier Legendary.
Its base stat total was even more exaggerated, reaching 800, far surpassing the vast majority of First-tier Legendaries.
Moreover,
Its Ability was ridiculously powerful.
With Wonder Guard,
It could be said that it was immune to most attacks!
There was no doubt.
This Piedmon was absolutely the strongest combat power currently in his hands.
No wonder
The transformation just now had been so difficult.
The stronger the target he needed to modify,
The more energy and effort it required.
"Good!"
"From now on, you'll stay with me!"
Shiko said as he looked at Piedmon.
In any case, it was impossible for him to return to that training room and continue training now.
On top of that, with Piedmon's elusive way of moving and acting,
There was no problem keeping it by his side.
"At your command, my lord!"
Piedmon nodded and bowed elegantly to Shiko.
In the next second,
The two Pokémon abruptly disappeared into the dense night.
At the same time,
In the eastern region of the Great Axia Alliance,
Minister Kenjiro, who had just returned to the eastern base,
Received an emergency message from the observers.
Upon seeing this information,
He contacted Hogusei at once.
"According to our calculations and projections, four First-tier Legendaries have currently been detected within the Great Axia Alliance's territory: Groudon, Lugia, Regigigas, and Ho-Oh. Shiko's location at Dragon Valley has also been exposed!"
"I think their target should be WarGreymon!"
Four First-tier Legendaries?
Hearing this news, Hogusei was stunned.
One or two,
Shiko might still be able to handle.
But with so many coming all at once,
Could he really manage it?
No!
They had to notify him of this immediately!!!
