Seabed Round Stone

The seawater was freezing cold.

It also carried a suffocating heaviness, as though he were forcing himself into a space that did not belong to him.

With a diving regulator in his mouth, Baimu dragged Aggron along as he searched for Mawile and Wally. Before long, he spotted Gyarados's tail near the bow of the ship.

It seemed to be planning to swim deeper into the sea.

Bang bang!

He patted Aggron's back. It immediately gave chase at no slow pace, its tail swishing rapidly.

They had to catch Gyarados before Big Monster needed to surface for air. After all, it had learned Surf, not diving. It could float on the sea's surface, but it could not stay underwater for long.

Aggron understood that as well and swam downward with all its strength.

Before long, they had actually reached the seafloor. The surroundings became incredibly murky, and every step kicked up a huge cloud of sand.

How far was this from the surface?

Baimu realized that, in his panic, he had not considered the depth at all. But since the water pressure had not crushed his lungs, it probably was not too bad.

Seeing that they still could not catch up and that Gyarados was even about to enter the trench ahead, Baimu climbed onto Aggron's side and gave it a look.

The next instant.

Crackle!

Electricity flickered between Aggron's two horns, then turned into a bolt of lightning that tore through the water and struck Gyarados at high speed.

Baimu let go of Aggron and moved away in time, so he only trembled for a moment.

Gyarados, being four times weak to Electric-type attacks, was wracked with pain and instinctively released Wally from its jaws.

That also gave Mawile, which had been waiting for a long time, an opportunity.
