"What kind of Pokémon is this?"
This was what Sceptile was thinking.
There was no helping it; Morgans truly didn't look human, even less so than him.
But Morgans was indeed human, having eaten the Zoan-type Devil Fruit: Albatross Form, and had been maintaining the albatross form for an extended period.
"Why choose such a place? It was quite difficult to find," Morgans grumbled.
"Huh?"
When the voice echoed, Morgans looked up at Dak, only then realizing that this was the person from the Mystery Hatchery House.
Instantly, Morgans dropped the disdainful attitude, realizing that Sceptile was no ordinary creature.
"Boss! The Sea God is coming!"
Before Morgans and Dak could start their conversation, someone rushed in, frantically shouting.
"Huh?" Morgans was stunned.
Wasn't it too early for the Sea God this year? Quickly realizing the situation, Morgans hurried outside. The outer city would be completely submerged, and as a Devil Fruit user, he definitely didn't want to die.
Fortunately, Morgans had always been cautious and had prepared lifeboats for such emergencies.
"Hey, you two, follow me."
Morgans, ever the professional, didn't forget to call Dak and Sceptile for evacuation, aligning with his character as someone who would risk his life for a headline.
Dak and Sceptile exchanged glances and shrugged.
They hadn't expected to face a tsunami just upon arrival.
But to call it misfortune…
That was an overstatement.
Dak's eyes sparkled with an idea.
He wanted to use the Sea God to build a powerful image for Pokémon, to make both Morgans and the people of Water 7 witness it.
With this thought, Dak suddenly discarded the idea of returning to the shop.
Is the Sea God terrifying?
Not necessarily.
To be frank, Darkrai could even swallow the entire tsunami with a black hole.
Thinking so, Dak followed Morgans out with Sceptile.
As they reached the streets of the outer city and looked towards the sea, a massive wave, obscuring the sky, was crashing towards them.
Dak admitted he had underestimated the Sea God.
Having never seen a tsunami before, he was genuinely surprised by the natural disaster's might, understanding why humans felt powerless against such calamities.
The wave of the Sea God reached heights of over 500 meters, almost the highest ever recorded on the Blue Planet.
No wonder it could easily submerge the outer city of Water 7.
"Hey, get on the boat."
Morgans had entered a submarine, docked in the river canal of the outer city, beckoning Dak and Sceptile to hurry aboard.
"Darkrai, bring that boat here."
Dak didn't board.
Instead, with Sceptile's help, he climbed onto a rooftop.
Moreover, he had Darkrai materialize, lifting the submarine with one hand and placing it beside Dak and Sceptile.
"Huh?"
Morgans was dumbfounded.
What are you doing?
He stuck his head out, staring at the two peculiar creatures beside Dak.
Suddenly, Morgans had an epiphany and jumped out of the submarine, taking out his camera to photograph Dak and his companions.
He knew what he was doing and the risks involved.
But he smelled a big scoop.
That guy floating mid-air, lifting the submarine, made Morgans realize this group was extraordinary.
The Mystery Hatchery House, huh?
Another formidable force emerges at sea, confirming the stories about Hawkeye were true.
While Morgans pondered, he didn't miss glancing at the approaching giant wave, his legs trembling uncontrollably. Despite being an albatross, he couldn't fly!
But no matter, he planned to jump into the submarine and hide if these guys didn't act when the Sea God was 50 meters away.
Dak looked back.
On the inner city walls of Water 7, many people had noticed the situation here, with more and more gathering to watch the spectacle.
Most appeared worried, seemingly honest civilians, while those delighting in the chaos were likely pirates and thugs.
Dak could even see some taking advantage of the chaos to rob the ordinary people, with no sight of the World Government or Marines.
The World Government probably didn't want to intervene, while the Marines were likely evacuating civilians, not noticing the theft.
In such times, Dak thought.
If those civilians had Pokémon by their sides, would those villains dare to be so brazen?
"About time."
Dak didn't have the luxury to ponder the future.
The towering wave was now just a hundred meters away from the coastline of the outer city.
Morgans had already climbed atop the lifeboat, one foot inside the cabin.
"Sceptile, I haven't seen your strength yet."
Dak looked at the calm Sceptile beside him, smiling without a hint of nervousness.
"Cha."
Sceptile slightly raised its head, its confidence apparent.
He took a few steps forward, sizing up the gigantic tsunami.
Indeed, it was massive, but he had faced tsunamis stirred by Kyogre in the Pokémon world before.
Compared to that,
This was merely a baby.
Swoosh!
Sceptile suddenly turned around, flicking its lush, powerful tail towards the tsunami.
One of the Grass-type's ultimate moves—Leaf Storm.
Boom!
A green tornado, equally tall, suddenly rose from the sea!
The green energy formed a tornado on the sea, wrapping endless green leaves around the Sea God, effortlessly tearing it apart.
Countless seawaters were pulled into the clouds by the green tornado, with leaves falling from the sky, covering half of Water 7 in a green blanket.
The gloomy sky was now showering with wet leaves.
Everyone dumbly looked up at the falling green leaves.
Only Morgans kept snapping photos with his camera, both shocked and driven by professional instinct.
This was Pokémon's first grand public performance in this world, akin to a magical show by forest sprites.
This was Pokémon's little greeting to the world, a minor shock.
"Amazing, Sceptile."
Dak generously praised Sceptile's strength.
Sceptile proudly raised its head, closing its eyes, crossing its arms over its chest, a slight smile on its lips.
Mission Complete Flawless.
