Giant Tentacruel

"Sacred Fire?"

Lugia, maintaining its flight posture, looked down and pondered for several seconds. While interested, it was indeed surprised to hear the name of that move from Luo Mu.

Once, it and Ho-Oh had both dwelled atop tall towers built by humans who believed in them, accepting their offerings.

But because of certain incidents, humanity had angered them. After delivering their punishment, it and Ho-Oh flew away from those towers.

One vanished without a trace, while the other slumbered in the depths of the sea.

Hearing the name "Sacred Fire" so suddenly left it feeling a little dazed.

They were already very close to the Kanto Sea. Finding a small island out at sea, Lugia and Moltres landed on it, while Giant Dragonite continued soaking in the water.

Not to mention whether its current size even allowed it to fly, the island itself could not possibly bear its weight.

It could only blow bubbles while staring at Luo Mu, Lugia, and Moltres with its guileless eyes, which were countless times larger than light bulbs, like an enormous titan climbing over a city wall.

After stopping on the island, Lugia only needed to do one thing.

—It used its all-purpose psychic power and, like Calyrex, attempted to probe the cluster of rainbow-colored fire within Moltres's body with its mental power.

"It really is pure Sacred Fire."

Lugia first gave the most important conclusion, though it was one Luo Mu had already confirmed.

Afterward, it began attempting to touch the somewhat restless fire seed with its mental power.

"You mean this fire seed was a gift from a Moltres formed from a living flame, given to your Moltres?" Lugia asked Luo Mu as it examined it, as though confirming the matter again.

"Yes."

Luo Mu nodded slightly and recounted the situation
