Fear

Outside the Tokyo metropolitan area, after spending nearly half an hour rushing here, Latios and Latias, already in their Mega Evolution forms, stared at the Wall of Fire before them, formed from blazing Azure Flames.

The urgent notes of the Infinite Flute had told them that Su Hao was likely in danger. Without hesitation, they had completely sealed off the Infinite Secret Realm and rushed here at top speed.

Mega Latias asked anxiously, "What do we do, Brother? Little Mei and Su Hao should both be inside!"

Mega Latios's expression was unusually grave. He shook his head. "I'm worried too, but even we can't barge into this endless sea of fire made of Azure Flames. If we get touched by those flames, we'll be in trouble."

From Mega Latios's perspective, there seemed to be some sort of energy source inside the Wall of Fire fueling the Azure Flames. Charging in now would be no different from seeking death.

Even the two of them, brother and sister, would suffer severe injuries if they were careless.

Just as the two Legendary Pokémon were at a loss, a dense black shadow suddenly rose from the ground nearby, and Marshadow poked his head out.

As Dragon Psychic-type Legendary Pokémon, Mega Latios and Mega Latias had extremely precise control over their surroundings. The instant Marshadow poked his head out from the Shadow World, they noticed him and immediately turned their gazes toward him.

When he saw Marshadow's small black body, Mega Latios frowned. "The overseer of the Rainbow Trial—why are you here?"

Mega Latios and Mega Latias remained wary of Marshadow. Even if he was Ho-Oh's subordinate, who could say whether Marshadow harbored ill intent?

Marshadow shook his head and said, "You're here for Su Hao, right? The situation is a little complicated.
