The moment Giratina appeared, the entire world fell silent.
The Five Kings of Hisui and Big Goo, who had been poised to clash, all looked up at the figure in the sky.
For a moment, no one spoke.
Standing on Giratina's shoulder and looking down at the scene below, Chen Shi wore a conflicted expression.
Now, almost all the Hisui Region's strongest fighters had gathered here.
Unless something unexpected happened, they would erupt into battle once Giratina left to deal with the Time-Space Duo.
And any battle would bring casualties.
No matter which side won, the Hisui Region would suffer devastating losses.
By now, Chen Shi could more or less guess why Cogita had orchestrated this battle.
She wanted the Hisui Region's glory to fade!
She wanted the Hisui Region to become no different from any other region.
Chen Shi did not know exactly why Cogita wanted to do this, but as an incarnation of Arceus, she was the creator of this world.
She was also the supreme object of worship in the Hisui Region.
She must have had a reason that made this necessary.
Though he found it hard to accept, it was just as he himself had said.
He was only a pitiful, weak, and helpless human.
Decisions made by beings of her stature were not something he could influence.
The only thing he could do was try his best to reduce the casualties.
To let more innocent lives survive.
"..."
"Not bad, kid. So many weak little creatures are willing to follow you."
Giratina seemed to be in a good mood, even teasing him for once.
Chen Shi shook his head slightly. "They were all forced into it. It's nothing special."
Giratina scoffed softly and said, "Those Pokémon look like they might be a bit of trouble."
