Watching the Pokémon before him get attacked by some unknown entity, knocked flying again and again only to pounce right back in, Heiduo fell into deep thought.
He had not expected that less than half an hour after the three of them started exploring the inside of the cruise ship, they would be attacked by the impatient Individual One. This was far too early.
Could it be that Blue and Deoxys had fought for several hours in the original story?
—He would never believe that Red and Green had failed to notice after several hours unless those two idiots were deaf and blind.
In reality, though, Heiduo had underestimated this famous high-speed vessel.
Back at the Whirl Islands, Aqua had been thrown out of the sky by Lugia, damaging much of its internal machinery. They had not dared to travel too quickly, which was why its speed had seemed somewhat slow.
But Aqua's true speed was as high as sixty knots!
Comparable to the hydrofoil ships from his previous life!
The ship Heiduo had taken to Hoenn before could not compare at all. More importantly, this ship was huge!
A ten-thousand-ton cruise liner was no joke!
The ocean was far more complicated than land. A ship that large racing across the sea at sixty knots was difficult to match even with the technology of his previous life, among cruise ships with comparable displacement.
As for warships and aircraft carriers, factors such as fuel consumption meant that their speed generally did not exceed forty knots. It was not that they could not go faster; there was simply no need to.
Heiduo had initially thought that Aqua would need at least two or three hours to travel from Vermilion City to the Sevii Islands, but in truth, one hour at most was
