Chapter 372: A Tiny Little Wave of Aura Shock!

In the original work, among the many supernatural abilities humans could wield, the one with the best effect when it came to communicating with Pokémon—and the strongest calming ability—was probably Viridian Power, also known as Evergreen Power.

The Aura Power Chen Mo possessed was fundamentally different from Viridian Power, but Aura itself was a form of spiritual energy, originating from the spirit of every living being.

Therefore, Aura could also be used to communicate seamlessly with Pokémon. It was simply that for ordinary Aura Guardians, achieving an effect comparable to Viridian Power through Aura was likely quite difficult.

Fortunately.

Chen Mo was not among the ranks of ordinary Aura Guardians.

When he had first entered the secret realm and was still inside the cave, Chen Mo had unconsciously triggered the Time Flower outside.

Time Flowers were extraordinarily sensitive to Aura, and that alone was enough to demonstrate just how vast the range of Chen Mo’s leaking Aura had been.

And that had been when he had yet to fully master his own Aura.

“Senior Lucario…”

Standing behind Chen Mo, Zoroark turned toward Lucario with a face full of shock.

The blue canine Pokémon’s expression was equally grave, its eyes filled with disbelief.

Unlike Zoroark, whose understanding of Aura was limited, Lucario, as an Aura Pokémon, could more clearly sense just how terrifying the Aura Chen Mo was releasing at this moment truly was.

It had even…

Completely surpassed Lucario’s former Trainer—the man countless people, and countless Aura Guardians, had hailed as the “Hero,” Sir Aaron.

“That really is rather unusual…”

Lucario stared at Chen Mo’s back, deep in thought.

Unlike many supernatural abilities that were fixed from birth, Aura was a power that could continue to grow. At the same time, it was also an extraordinary power that placed immense importance on talent.

Yet even a legendary figure as gifted as Sir Aaron had not possessed such powerful Aura at Chen Mo’s age.

“I actually find it strange as well.”

A voice suddenly sounded within Lucario’s mind.

Realizing that Chen Mo was using Aura to communicate telepathically with it, Lucario’s expression grew even more astonished.

At the same time, through the Aura connecting them, it also understood the doubts in Chen Mo’s heart. After thinking for a moment, Lucario replied softly,

“Sir Aaron often said that there are still many, many things in this world that are beyond comprehension. So I believe that until you discover the reason, Lord Chen Mo, you only need to use this power well and remain true to your heart.”

“Remain true to my heart…”

Chen Mo silently repeated those words.

Lucario’s voice sounded again.

“Also, I can say with certainty that you, Lord Chen Mo, are a natural-born Aura Guardian.”

Sensing the gentle yet steadfast energy contained within the Aura Chen Mo was releasing, Lucario slowly closed its eyes, and a faint smile appeared on its face.

The legacy of the Aura Guardians…

Would continue in another world.

However.

In a place Lucario could not see, Chen Mo’s expression turned slightly dazed.

He felt as though someone had once said something very similar to him.

Lord Chen Mo is a natural-born Aura Guardian…

He remembered that voice being very gentle.

And his response at the time seemed to have been—

“This Aura is still far from enough!”

A strange sense of urgency rose within Chen Mo’s heart as he pushed his Aura Power to its limit.

At the same time.

Countless people standing on the shore of the island and on the decks of nearby ships watched as densely packed Pokémon surged toward Chen Mo from every direction across the sea.

Magikarp, Shellder, Staryu, Lumineon, Wailmer…

Marine Pokémon of countless different species filled the surrounding waters, scrambling to break through the surface in response to the young man’s call from the shore.

“Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit! What the hell is going on!? Why are there suddenly so many Pokémon!?”

“Magic! Teacher Mo used magic!”

“No, seriously, is Teacher Mo even human anymore!? What exactly did he do!?”

“I feel like… right now, as far as Pokémon are concerned, Teacher Mo is basically… basically a succubus!”

Calling him a succubus was honestly not much of an exaggeration.

Hu Chengliang could even see that among the Pokémon closest to Chen Mo, some were practically about to start fighting over a better position.

However.

At that moment.

The young man on the shore slowly raised one hand.

The restless Pokémon on the surface of the sea immediately quieted down. Even so, every single one of them kept their eyes fixed upon Chen Mo, waiting for his instructions.

“Clever application.”

Lucario’s face showed a trace of admiration.

Naturally, it understood why.

There were two reasons for the scene before them.

First, Chen Mo’s Aura was powerful enough to summon so many wild Pokémon.

Second, Chen Mo’s control over Aura had already reached an extremely high level.

Returning to the root of the matter.

The primary reason so many wild Pokémon had gathered in these waters was the all-embracing, immensely welcoming Aura emitted by the Tree of World’s Beginning, which had drawn them here.

And at this moment, Chen Mo had skillfully connected and merged his own Aura with that of the Tree of World’s Beginning.

An experienced Aura Guardian could easily identify the difference with a little attention, but ordinary Pokémon could not sense such subtleties. Instinctively, they simply believed that the mysterious existence that had been sheltering them had finally revealed itself.

One minute later.

Chen Mo conveyed the news that the Tree of World’s Beginning would soon descend. He described it as a great catastrophe that was about to befall these waters, adding that although he would intervene, he hoped everyone would stay away from this sea area as much as possible for the foreseeable future.

And so.

The watching crowd saw the countless Pokémon poking their heads above the surface reveal expressions of overwhelming gratitude. Even quite a few Magikarp, normally blank-eyed and vacant-looking, began shedding tears continuously.

“This is too ridiculous! It’s fucking ridiculous! Even the Magikarp are acting like this! What exactly did Teacher Mo do!?”

“Look! What are those Pokémon doing!?”

At that moment.

Everyone suddenly saw purple-black Shellder repeatedly snapping their shells open and shut as they hopped toward the beach.

After reaching a spot roughly one or two meters in front of Chen Mo, they stopped.

“Shalder! Shalder!”

Under the direction of one Shellder, many others opened their shells wide, using their long red tongues to roll out white pearls of various sizes before placing them on the sand.

That action seemed to serve as a signal.

The countless Pokémon in the ocean became restless once more.

Soon.

Someone spotted a group of blue-shelled Pokémon making their way onto the beach in a manner similar to the Shellder.

“Those are Clamperl!”

Many researchers who had long since memorized the Pokédex immediately recognized the species.

The Clamperl opened their shells, revealing the pink, pearl-like bodies within. Beside them were one bright pink pearl after another.

“Clam… Clamperl~”

…

…

…

…

It had sensed it as well.

The source that had drawn all the surrounding Pokémon to this place seemed to be the human standing before it.

Having gone hungry for days and then suddenly eaten far too many Pokéblocks, the Sharpedo’s appetite had been thoroughly stirred. Remembering the miserable experience of not even getting one proper meal a day during the previous days, its expression became increasingly vicious.

So it was you!

You mere human!

The next moment.

An intense aura of death, as though it had risen straight from hell itself, erupted wildly from the young man standing ahead.

Sharpedo’s entire body froze in place, as if it had suddenly malfunctioned.

🌟 The story is already written… waiting to be unleashed.
