"When the cracks in the sky reappear...... It brings endless calamities and tribulations. ”

Kukui said: "That's what Alola's ancient books say. ”

He snapped a notebook shut.

The Doctor's face was solemn and uneasy.

Barnett also playfully did not speak.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy.

Although Yue looked at them and wanted to laugh.

What is the crack in the sky...... Isn't it the ultimate hole?

What calamities and tribulations, aren't they just a few ultimate beasts running out?

But on second thought, it seems that it would be quite troublesome if they dealt with the ultimate beast.

Of course, these words cannot be said on the spot, and the doctors still have to give face.

So Tsuki made a surprised face.

"Rifts? What is that? ”

Kukuy tapped his finger lightly on the table and said:

"The great rift in the sky, which we call the Ultimate Hole, is said to be a space-time passage connecting another piece of the sky, which only appeared in the ancient days of Alola."

"Even if the legend isn't strong evidence, we can't sit idly by."

Kukuy grimaced, and Barnett on the side took his words: "If it was just a legend, it wouldn't affect our determination to study him, but we found that as we further researched, a huge organization seemed to be inextricably linked to our research. ”

"The leads they follow are always strikingly similar to our research, and our research leads to them ......"

"It's the Aether Foundation."

Kukuy's face had a look of helplessness.

"I'm surprised that such a respected and well-known Aether would be studying these things."

(Month: Not surprised)

"It has nothing to do with their love for Pokémon."

Kukuy was halfway through his sentence and suddenly closed his mouth.

After a while, he spoke again:

"You don't seem surprised at all."

"Go ahead, I'm surprised."

"Maybe it's true that the Aether is studying this ultimate hole, but they may have the same purpose as us, just to study the secrets of Alola's Patronus, but it could be something else."

"If the Cave of Perfection is opened again, it will bring more disaster than Alola can bear, and we don't want Alola to suffer such devastation."

It's not what the outcome is, but Kukui seems to be a little taboo about it.

"It's unlikely though."

Barnett added in a whisper.

"Kukuy, it's a mistake to underestimate someone else at all times, and we don't even know what the ether is like."

Kukui nodded, then turned his face to the girl, furrowed his eyebrows, and stared at her with piercing eyes.

Tsuki's expression was a little unnatural, and her eyes drifted to the photo of Kukui and Barnett on the side.

She pursed her lips.

"Is there anything on my face?"

"Yue, we told you this because of your request, but I don't want to see anything happen to you, and I hope you don't get into a conflict with the Aether until the matter is investigated."

Yue nodded, and suddenly felt a pair of hands on his shoulders.

Doctor: "What happened in the United Forces...... Don't do it a second time! ”

Yue was slightly stunned.

She knew what Kukuy was referring to.

"Ah, that's what was agreed."

Yue then said.

After a brief moment of silence, a smile appeared on Kukui's face.

"Ha, don't mention this, by the way, Tsuki, have you heard of a special tradition in the Alola region, "Royal Battle"?"

Kukui said.

Barnett: "Each of the four sides sends a Pokémon to fight against each other, and it is said that they are competing in imitation of the gods of the islands!" ”

Barnett's face was full of motherly love again.

There was a knock on the door.

All three of them looked for sound and found a vague figure standing outside the door.

"Doctor, Miss Lilia is waiting for you."

It seemed to be the voice of the researcher named "Roy", and the figure outside the door quickly disappeared.

Kukuy and Barnett looked at each other, both smiling.

"Can't let Lilia wait too long......" Barnett said, looking at the moon to the side.

"Then tomorrow's royal battle is coming."

Tsuki seemed to remember something, and nodded with the same smile.

……

Yue walked out of the Space Research Institute, feeling a heavy pressure in her heart for no reason.

The light tonight seems to be darker than ever.

Thinking to herself, Yue suddenly remembered the content of the game's plot and looked up.

The otherwise calm sky was like a pot of boiling water dripping with a drop of oil, and the clouds were tumbling violently.

In the layers of dark clouds, a hole that seemed to have been cut by a sharp blade was emitting bursts of cold light.

Around it, the fold-like spatial surface is bent and deformed wantonly, giving people a sense of absurdity and horror.

The gray, black cracks slowly wriggled and vanished.

It's just a matter of seconds.

"What's wrong, Moon?"

Kukuy's voice came from behind him.

"Cracks...... No, maybe it's a delusion. Halfway through Yue's words, she changed her words.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back together." Kukui said.

Yue silently followed Kukuy, but there was a trace of doubt in his heart.

The strange rift just now is supposed to be the so-called Ultimate Hole, and combined with the time I came out of the institute, it happened to be at the same time as the events in the game.

Is it a coincidence? Or is the time I'm in now out of sync with the game progress again?

The girl thought.

She deliberately staggered the timing of trials and events, but she didn't expect it to be like this.

"Well...... I can't care so much about it. ”

She sighed lightly.

A slight smile appeared on the girl's face.

She was still looking forward to the "royal battle" in her heart.

After all, in the game, passers-by in the royal battle can casually take out the mythical beast and throw it over, which is unlikely according to the urine nature of this world, but maybe it will be interesting.
