# Chapter 205: Tangled Threads
Appearing before Bai Ye was a Mismagius. It looked at Bai Ye, its gaze revealing guilt.
"Mismagius..." I'm sorry...
Bai Ye didn't care about any of that. No matter what their bond was in the past, at this moment, Mismagius was an invader! Anyone who dared to invade Bai Feng's Orchard would have to fight it to the death.
Bai Ye soared into the Sky, flying to a position level with Mismagius, and was the first to launch an attack.
Bai Ye was enveloped in purple radiance. Using the Psychic move, it transformed its powerful psychic power into streams of light, shooting towards Mismagius as densely as raindrops.
Mismagius flew to evade, but Bai Ye created too many psychic power arrows. It could only counterattack.
With a casual wave in the Mid-air, it formed an orange-red circle. Streams of spiral fire shot out from the circle, knocking down Bai Ye's psychic power arrows. Its movements were so skilled, elegant, and natural.
Bai Ye was not to be outdone. It also drew an identical circle in front of itself, and surging flames erupted from it, transforming into fire dragons that collided with the flames created by Mismagius.
The movements of the two Pokémon using their moves were exactly the same. Bai Ye's Mystical Fire move was learned from Mismagius.
Seeing Bai Ye's aggressive attack, Mismagius looked surprised. It hadn't expected Bai Ye to become this powerful in just a few years.
If it continued to grow stronger at this speed, it probably wouldn't be its opponent in long, Mismagius thought to itself with a sigh.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The flames created by both sides collided in the Mid-air, constantly producing violent explosions, even more dazzling and intense than fireworks.
Mismagius defended against Bai Ye's attack while trying to persuade Bai Ye, "I don't want to fight with you. As long as you hand over that thing that was delivered to Bai Feng a few days ago, I will immediately take my people and leave."
Bai Ye instantly understood that Mismagius was talking about the Ultimate Weapon. But not only was that thing already broken, even if it wasn't, it wouldn't hand it over to Mismagius, this invader.
"Cut the nonsense. If you can take that thing from me today, then that's your ability!"
After speaking, Bai Ye launched an even fiercer attack on Mismagius. Azure Will-O'-Wisps, shaped like lotus flowers, floated around its body. Under its control, the flames were like cannonballs, wildly smashing towards Mismagius.
Mismagius dodged left and right, easily avoiding Bai Ye's Will-O'-Wisp attack. It levitated in the Mid-air, looking at Bai Ye helplessly, "Since we can't talk it out, I can only take it by force."
Its eyes flashed with a strange radiance. Suddenly, Bai Ye found that eight orange-red circles appeared simultaneously in eight directions around it. Hot waves surged within the circles, as if lava would erupt in the next second.
In an instant, countless flames erupted from the circles, overwhelming Bai Ye like a mountain tsunami.
The Pokémon in the Orchard below watched the battle in the Sky intently. This kind of battle was one they didn't even have the qualification to intervene in.
Seeing Bai Ye submerged by Mystical Fire, everyone let out exclamations in unison. However, when the flames disappeared, Bai Ye's figure had already vanished.
Not seeing Bai Ye, Mismagius thought, "This is bad," and was about to search for Bai Ye's trace when suddenly a silver light pillar struck from its right. It was instantly submerged in the silver light pillar.
It turned out that Bai Ye had used Teleport to leave the moment it was hit by the Mystical Fire attack.
However, what surprised Bai Ye was that its Moonblast move had no effect. When the silver light pillar dissipated, Mismagius was floating in the air completely unharmed, protected by a blue barrier around its body.
It was the Protect move.
Under Bai Ye's astonished gaze, a black Hole appeared beside Mismagius. Its figure flashed, and it disappeared into the black Hole.
Ghost-type Pokémon are not good at head-on confrontation.
This is bad!
Bai Ye exclaimed inwardly, while vigilantly observing its surroundings. It spread its psychic power around its body, guarding against Mismagius, which could suddenly appear from anywhere.
After an unknown amount of time, a black Hole suddenly appeared behind Bai Ye. Mismagius poked half its body out from it. But Bai Ye seemed to have eyes on its back, turning around and instantly unleashing a Dazzling Gleam behind it.
Mismagius's eyes flashed with radiance. The rainbow beam formed by Dazzling Gleam was held in Mid-air by it, exploding like a dud cannonball. At the same time, a blue light circle suddenly appeared and instantly enveloped Bai Ye.
Bai Ye was startled, but the light circle immediately disappeared. At the same time, Mismagius, after a light chuckle, drilled back into the black Hole and vanished again.
Bai Ye continued to be vigilant of its surroundings. Soon, Mismagius appeared behind it again. When it intended to attack with Mystical Fire, it discovered in horror that the move failed to activate.
Not only that, but it couldn't use moves like Dazzling Gleam, Psychic, and Will-O'-Wisp either.
Mismagius had used Imprison on Bai Ye just now. As long as Bai Ye's moves overlapped with its own, Bai Ye would be unable to use the overlapping ones.
In its daze, Bai Ye was hit by a Mystical Fire. The spiral fire brought a huge impact force, directly knocking it down from High Altitude.
Boom!!!!
Bai Ye crashed to the Ground, creating a large Hole.
Bai Feng, along with Xatu and Togekiss, broke through the dark curtain surrounding Fangxing Mountain. As soon as they entered, they saw the scene of Bai Ye being hit by flames and knocked down.
"Mother!!!"
Bai Feng exclaimed, suddenly looking at the culprit who knocked down Bai Ye, and then froze.
It's you!
Mismagius floated quietly in the Mid-air, its purple magical robe gently swaying in the gust. It looked at the suddenly returned Bai Feng in astonishment.
Bai Feng never expected that the invader of his Home would be the Pokémon he had helped, the Master of that Ghost Ship.
They hadn't seen each other for over two years. He didn't expect their reunion to be in such a ridiculous way!
Seeing Bai Ye, Mismagius's face showed a look of guilt. Without Bai Feng's help, its child would probably be insane by now. But now, it had not only brought people to invade Fangxing Mountain but also injured Bai Feng's Mother.
Mismagius looked at Bai Feng, its lips moved, but ultimately, it couldn't say anything.
Bai Feng didn't have time to ponder whether Mismagius had any hidden difficulties in doing this. That had nothing to do with him. He only knew that Mismagius was repaying kindness with enmity, invading his Home, and injuring his Mother.
"Xatu, Togekiss, that Mismagius is yours," Bai Feng said expressionlessly.
After speaking, he used Teleport to go to Bai Ye's side.
"Xatu~"
"Togekiss~"
Xatu and Togekiss responded, then flapped their wings. In the blink of an eye, they were opposite Mismagius.
Seeing Xatu and Togekiss, Mismagius's face became solemn. It wondered inwardly: How could two such powerful Pokémon appear by Bai Feng's side?
It was difficult for it to handle even one existence of this level, let alone two.
At this moment, Bai Feng had arrived beside Bai Ye. Hatterene also rushed over and was using Life Dew to heal Bai Ye's injuries.
Bai Feng quickly took Bai Ye from Hatterene's arms and asked with concern, "Mother, are you okay?" As he asked, he anxiously checked Bai Ye's injuries.
"Gardevoir~ Gardevoir~" I'm fine, no need to make a fuss.
Bai Ye impatiently slapped away Bai Feng's hand that was fumbling over its body.
Actually, Bai Ye was indeed fine. It wasn't so weak that it couldn't even take one attack from Mismagius, and besides, Mismagius had clearly held back just now.
Under Hatterene's treatment, it already looked like it had recovered its rosy complexion.
Bai Ye looked up at the Sky. At this time, Xatu and Togekiss had already launched a siege on Mismagius. Seeing this, Bai Feng also looked up.
The first to act was Xatu. It used the Tailwind move. Immediately, it and Togekiss both rode the wind, their speed greatly increased.
The couple kept circling around Mismagius, almost making its eyes spin.
Mismagius wanted to catch them with psychic power, but with the boost from Tailwind, it was not easy to achieve this.
Togekiss flew near Mismagius and flapped its wings forcefully. Transparent Air Slashes appeared, spinning and cutting towards Mismagius.
It was Air Cutter. This move can not only cause damage to the opponent but also potentially make the opponent flinch.
Mismagius quickly dodged. At this moment, Xatu made its move again.
Xatu has the talent of Future Sight. It stared intently at Mismagius, instantly judging all its evade routes, and fired a Simple Beam.
Mismagius thought it could dodge, but it didn't know that Xatu had already predicted its movements. It was hit squarely by Simple Beam.
The effect of Simple Beam is to change the opponent's ability to Simple.
Mismagius's original ability was Levitate. It usually relied on this ability for flying.
It's not that it couldn't fly on its own; in fact, relying on psychic power, it could fly freely like other Ghost-type Pokémon. But the Levitate ability saved it a lot of effort, so it usually relied on the ability for flying instead of its own psychic power.
Now that its ability suddenly disappeared, Mismagius was very unable to adapt, and it swayed as if it was about to fall to the Ground.
At this moment, Togekiss's attack arrived again. Countless Air Slashes cut into Mismagius's body.
"Mismagius~~"
Mismagius let out a painful cry.
Togekiss's ability is Serene Grace. Its effect is to make the additional effects of moves more likely to occur.
Sure enough, with the boost from the Serene Grace ability, the additional effect of Air Cutter, flinch, took effect. The moment it was hit by the Air Slash, a sudden fear appeared in Mismagius's heart, making it forget to resist for a moment, and it even wanted to turn around and run.
At this time, a strong purple radiance flashed in Xatu's eyes. It raised its wings, and two white light pillars shot towards the Sky.
Mismagius, who had barely stabilized its figure and overcome its psychological flinch, was about to counterattack, but Togekiss's attack arrived again. The disappearance of its ability and the appearance of the flinched state completely put it in a passive position in the battle.
Togekiss stopped in the air, and a rainbow beam condensed at the tip of one wing.
The next second, the light pillar was thrown out by it. The light pillar turned into a beam and poured out towards Mismagius. Mismagius was instantly submerged by the rainbow beam.
When the light pillar disappeared, Mismagius swayed and fell downwards, but surprisingly, it had not yet fainted.
However, this was no longer important, because at this moment, two beams of radiance flashed in the Sky, and two light rings fell from the air one after another, smashing heavily onto Mismagius.
Accompanied by a cry of pain, Mismagius completely fainted.
Seeing this scene, all the Pokémon in the Orchard below cheered. Smiles also appeared on Bai Feng and Bai Ye's faces.
It's finally over!
As Mismagius fell, the dark curtain covering Fangxing Mountain slowly receded. Bright sunlight shone directly through the clouds, so warm.
Only that Fatty's face was pale. He sat on the Ground with a thud, his heart feeling utterly cold!
Before setting off, the Leader had warned him to be cautious, but he hadn't taken the Leader's warning to heart and had vowed to complete the task. He hadn't expected to fail so completely.
Even Lord Salamence and Lord Mismagius had become the opponent's captives.
Soon, all the invaders were escorted by the Orchard's Pokémon to Bai Feng's presence.
Looking at these invaders wearing red uniforms, Bai Feng fell into thought. This attire looked so familiar? It seemed... it seemed... Team Flare dressed like this...
But Lysandre hadn't founded Team Flare yet!
Bai Feng walked up to an invader, "Look up at me!"
Hearing Bai Feng's words, the person subconsciously looked up and immediately met Bai Feng's deep eyes that flashed with purple radiance.
Instantly, this invader's mental state was captured.
"Tell me, who are you?" Bai Feng's low whisper sounded in the invader's ear.
"We... are... the... elite... troops... of... Immortal Organization..." The invader answered word by word.
Immortal Organization! Bai Feng's face showed surprise. It's them again!
"What is your purpose?" Bai Feng continued to ask.
"Divine... Item..." The invader answered very honestly.
So it was for the Ultimate Weapon! Bai Feng suddenly understood.
"Who is your Leader?"
"The Leader is... the Leader is... Heh heh heh..."
Just as the invader was about to answer, his face suddenly became distorted, and he even started foaming at the mouth, looking very painful.
Seeing this, Bai Feng quickly withdrew his hypnosis.
Was he given hypnosis defense?
Looking at the invader who had fallen into a coma, Bai Feng fell into thought. If he wasn't mistaken, there must be a very powerful Psychic or Psychic-type Pokémon in the Immortal Organization.
No need to guess, the other invaders must have also been given hypnosis defense!
"Pang!"
"Pang!"
"Craft!"
At this moment, the Pancham brothers and Qiao Duanjiang pushed a Fatty to Bai Feng's front.
"Bai Feng, Bai Feng! This is the head of those bad guys!" Qiao Duanjiang pointed at the Fatty and said angrily.
Seeing the Fatty's appearance, Bai Feng was startled again. Wasn't this person a cadre and scientist of Team Flare in the original work? It seemed... it seemed... his name was Xerosic.
Bai Feng thought for a long time before remembering this person's name, but this made him even more confused.
After thinking for a long time, Bai Feng suddenly thought of the key to the matter.
