Ye Qing did not let his guard down. Although he had Mega Diancie beside him, there were so many enemies that even Diancie could not take on hundreds or thousands of people alone.
Even if she could, he would never survive it himself!
Countless moves exploded in the night sky. Riding Garchomp, Ye Qing wove between the attacks, feeling their light and heat around him. For the first time, death felt so close.
Li Weisi was in even worse shape. With only one Mega-Evolved Pokémon, he had no way to withstand so many enemies. If Pidgeot had not been especially agile and used Protect to save his life, he would have been shot down long ago.
Ye Qing shouted, "Focus fire on that Mega Alakazam first!"
"Mega Salamence, Hyper Beam!"
"Mega Swampert, use Hydro Pump!"
Faced with such danger, Ye Qing's mind raced. "Manaphy, use your ability to swap Mega Salamence's consciousness with Gengar's."

Manaphy sensed Mega Salamence's location and indicated that it could do it.
"Mana!"
The two antennae on Manaphy's head swayed slightly. A moment later, Mega Salamence, who was exchanging blasts with Mega Swampert, was suddenly replaced by Gengar!
"Hehehe~"
Gengar's voice came from Mega Salamence's mouth. The next instant, a terrifying Hyper Beam swept across the pirate army, even shooting the completely unprepared Mega Alakazam straight out of the sky.
"One-Eye, what the hell are you doing?!"
The pirate Lao Liu immediately began cursing, unable to understand why this fellow had suddenly attacked him.
"Salamence!"
One-Eye was shocked and furious too, but with his knowledge of Manaphy, he immediately realized that this was Manaphy's doing!
"Mana, mana!"
Seeing its handiwork, Manaphy waved its arms and kicked its feet in delight.
"Roar!"
A moment later,
