Pokémon the Movie: The Journey of a Slate

Chapter 343: Grandma Geng Gui and the Reversed World

【I do not understand……】

A hoarse voice of confusion echoed in the void. Thousands of sky islands floated in the chaos, broken columns hung upside down under the indigo sky, and broken staircase fragments looked like building blocks discarded by children.

Grandma Gengar was suspended in the void, purple mist made of ghost energy wrapped around her body covered with eyes, and the floating mirror in front of her reflected the figure of Eslo running wildly on the streets of Lily of the Valley City.

[Why would the great creator pay attention to such a trivial matter?] Grandma Gengar was puzzled. As soon as the change happened in Suzuran City, she realized something was wrong and wanted to return to Eslo, but a terrifying tornado emerged from a puddle not far from her and brought her to the reverse world.

The mirror surface suddenly rippled, and Giratina's shadow enveloped the entire Sky Island. The giant dragon that inhabited the inverted world stretched out its dark gold wings. The exiled Son of Creation restrained his edge at this moment. His winding tail gently swept across the broken columns, and those broken Corinthian columns immediately turned into quicksand and dissipated.

[Big men have their own considerations. Perhaps in His eyes, this is an opportunity for two civilizations in the universe to communicate.] A neutral and somewhat hoarse voice sounded, which seemed to be caused by not speaking for a long time. Giratina also shook his head. Ever since Arceus exiled Him to the Reverse World, He had never called the other party "Father God" again.

The giant dragon entrenched in the shadows paused for a moment. Perhaps out of concern for Eslo, he said to the flower rock monster, which was incomparably tiny compared to him, "Relax, nothing will happen... Just think of it as watching a movie."

As he spoke, his shadow claws swept across the void, and countless star maps unfolded between the two of them. A flickering coordinate point coincided with the position of the young man in the mirror. In addition, there was another coordinate, as if hinting at something.

[This is not the fun I'm looking for!] Granny Gengar said in a serious tone, of course, not targeting Giratina, [Besides, with Yveltal here, it seems that there is no difference whether I go or not, right?]

[The Great Creator replied that he would figure it out himself.] Giratina simply thought that Arceus had used his ability to predict the future.

[……] Granny Gengar stared at the image in the mirror quietly, [What about Darkrai? ]

[I sent Him to the underworld.] Giratina paused for a moment, as if listening to something, and added, [He will probably like it.]

Darklay has no ability to travel to and from the underworld.

After saying that, Giratina flew away into the distance, leaving only the trapped Gengar Granny behind.

【…】

Grandma Gengar breathed a sigh of relief. She finally understood why Yveltal distrusted Arceus so much. She couldn't trust him either.

But before she could grumble in her heart, Grandma Gengar raised her eyes and looked around, trying to find a way out.

Although with Yveltal around, the possibility of anything happening to Eslo was almost zero, but the almost instinctive worry still made Gengar's grandmother want to go to her child's side. Only then could she feel at ease.

[But that great creator actually pays so much attention to this planet...] Grandma Gengar, who was trying to break out, thought so. She suddenly felt that the origins of the elves such as Morbeko and Marula around Eslo were a little strange. There were too many coincidences, as if they were pushed to Eslo by fate.

【never mind……】

As an elf who had died once, Grandma Gengar was very open-minded about things like fate. The most important thing for her now was to leave this hellhole first.

On the other side, in the boundless universe of the main world, Arceus was quietly gazing at the void in the distance. His figure was sacred and indescribable, surrounded by brilliant light, and occasionally one could even see his thousand arms.

At this moment, a dark crack suddenly appeared, and the origin form of Giratina emerged from it. After smoothly transforming its form, the somewhat dazed Ghost Dragon realized that the gravity in the universe was actually similar to the average gravity in the reversed world, and there was no need for him to become this clumsy looking creature with six legs.

[What's going on?] Arceus's sacred voice sounded, but if you listen carefully, you can hear a hint of laziness in it.

Giratina's reply was brief, "Darkrai is going very smoothly, Gengar is trying to break through the blockade."

[…Tsk.] Arceus tilted his head. No one could understand his expression. [Emotions are really hard to understand.]

Everyone knows that it is impossible to escape from the blockade of these gods with the strength that can barely make it to the level of fighting legends, but Grandma Gengar, out of worry, still foolishly tried.

[You say, why is this necessary? ]

Giratina paused, he wasn't sure if this was a question from the other party.

At the same time, Guilong was secretly complaining in his heart, complaining about the psychotic character of his own God of Creation.

[You seem to be a little rude? 】

An invisible feeling of oppression was coming towards Giratina. If he had hair, they would have stood on end by now.

[……] Giratina was thinking about the possibility of survival if he and Arceus exploded, and his aura gradually changed.

For a moment, the atmosphere in this space became heavy.

Seeing that the other party remained silent, Arceus seemed to feel that it was boring and retracted his gaze, "Okay, I won't scare you anymore, let her go."

【？】Giratina looked up in bewilderment, but soon he no longer felt strange. He never thought that he could figure out the other person's thoughts, just like if the other person didn't say it, he would never be able to guess that he was exiled to the reverse world just because the other person thought it was fun.

[Then I will go and open the restriction now.] Giratina tore open the space crack and returned to the reverse world. If He only wanted to lift the seal, He actually didn't need to come back. Giratina just wanted to stay away from Arceus at this time.

Arceus looked at the void with an inexplicable look in his eyes, [Hehe~ They are really disunited, but that's okay. ]

But...when the little guy suffers in the future, he shouldn't intervene, right?

Arceus thought seriously.

No one could figure out the thoughts of this great creator at this moment, not even the gods of the lake.

Chaotic and yet sacred, this is the impression the gods have of their Father God. They are not blessed with the weight of His love, and they have no way of knowing what He is thinking or planning.

……

At the edge of the reversed world, Grandma Gengar suddenly found that the constraints of the world had disappeared. Without hesitation, she turned into a purple streamer and rushed towards the crack in the present world.
