Mega Sharpedo possessed the explosive speed only a Champion Level agile Pokémon could achieve; even Diancie could not stop it.
Diamond Storm left countless wounds on the suddenly appearing Mega Sharpedo, but it still could not stop the Mega Sharpedo that was determined to leave the Sea Temple. They could only watch helplessly as it fled with Chi Lang's arm and the Blue Orb.
The entire sequence had taken less than ten seconds. Mega Sharpedo had appeared far too suddenly, and the speed it unleashed had been far too terrifying. Even its objective had exceeded Su Hao's expectations. Shouldn't an ordinary Pokémon's first instinct have been to save its master?
The Blue Orb, carrying most of the Sea Crown's energy, had been taken just like that.
Su Hao landed on the violently trembling floor of the Sea Temple, his expression grim as he looked at Chi Lang, whose face was twisted in pain yet wore a satisfied grin.
How could he not realize that Chi Lang would rather die than fail to awaken Kyogre?
"You lunatic."
Watching Chi Lang vomit blood even as he laughed madly, Su Hao said it from the bottom of his heart.
Chi Lang's eyes were unfocused, blood continuously pouring from his severed arm. "Hahahaha, I have your public release of Mega Evolution to thank for that. Otherwise, Sharpedo might really have been stopped by your Diancie."
"How does it feel? Your own past achievement caused a foolproof plan to fail at the last moment. It must hurt, right?"
Su Hao sighed. Unmoved by Chi Lang's provocation, he listened to Reshiram's suggestion in his mind and said coldly, "Hold onto your obsession and ideals, then bleed to death."
Even if he left Chi Lang alone, his injuries would kill him after some time from excessive blood
