If he remembered correctly, that Dumb Hippo seemed to be capable of Mega Evolution.
Ke Na never mentioned that... which means Ke Na actually didn't go all out.
Moreover, the fact that Milotic was initially suppressed suggests that Milotic only managed to turn defeat into victory because of special power amplification techniques.
Lt. Surge immediately had a plan in mind, but just these deductions were not enough. It seemed that his opponent was no simple matter, at least at King Level, and he needed to continue his investigation.
However, Lt. Surge still said to his daughter, "Don't worry, A Xing, remember, poison is almighty. We're not afraid of our opponent's strength or their strong defense. As long as the opponent is infected with poison, it is the moment of victory for us ninjas."
"Ninjas never collide head-on with the enemy."
"Hmm." A Xing's eyes lit up. That's right, she recalled her frequent use of the Toxic and Split Body Tactic when she was a rookie. Even if the opponent was very strong, as long as they were poisoned and couldn't hit her, when time ran out, it would be the victory of the Poison type Elves. How could she lose, it is simply impossible to lose.

Meanwhile, on Fang Yuan's side.
Although he said he had booked a hotel in advance, he hadn't actually made any reservations.
His sudden departure from Xiaozhi and the others was because he had sensed the wave motion of a tablet just a moment ago.
Even though it was only for an instant, his Overcome Force indeed responded.
This made Fang Yuan's expression become serious the moment he left Ke Na's villa.
"There's a tablet that might be in the Orange Archipelago."
"Let's fly over the Orange Archipelago overnight and lock on to the position of the tablet."
He said these words to the Eevee on his shoulder and also to the Dragonite inside the Poké Ball.
His Overcome Force's sensing range and intensity weren't as formidable as Mew's, which could sense across space and time, so now they had to search in a carpet pattern approach.
"Bwoo~~" Eevee raised her head in a lazy manner. Alright, playtime was over for today; she'd accompany Fang Yuan for a ride instead.
"Boe-ou!" Dragonite also emerged from the Poké Ball, surprised that after teaching Charizard to dance all night, there was still work to do.
However, Dragonite was not bothered by the hassle, in fact, its eyes were filled with a fighting spirit. Excellent, it seemed to have a chance to become a major contributor in saving space-time. As Fang Yuan's important means of transport in finding tablets, saving space-time would owe it 30% of the credit, which isn't too much to ask for, right?
By then, with this halo, it would be Milotic's turn to look up to it.
"Let's rush—"
With Fang Yuan's words, a bright streak crossed the night sky, and Dragonite soared up, carrying Fang Yuan and Eevee from Little Orange Island toward the whole Orange Archipelago.
.............
An hour later.
Fang Yuan and Dragonite were silently hovering above an island known as "Asia Island."
This island was the cultural center of the Orange Archipelago and also the main stage of the "Birth of Lugia."
Now, Fang Yuan didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
What pleased him was that what he sensed wasn't just one tablet.
But damn, it was three, shocking Fang Yuan for an entire year.
Located in this position, he could sense the presence of three tablets at the same time.
Three, he had been to Future Space-time, and the whole Earth had only yielded three.
Unfortunately, although the three tablets were right before his eyes, Fang Yuan wasn't able to directly obtain all three at the same time.
That was because the three tablets were apparently located on neighboring islands in three different directions from Asia Island: "Fire Island," "Thunder Island," "Ice Island"!
Each time, Fang Yuan hadn't yet approached an island when he could feel the terrifying pressure emanating from within, as if to say: Scram, all ye mortals.
Fire Island, with its clusters of volcanoes, was home to a Legendary Pokémon that resided there, likely the most special of the Moltres, the Fire God Moltres.
It was said that the Sacred Fire "Fire of Life" from the Quartz Conference was a feather of the god of fire.
Thunder Island, with its towering mountains and rampant thunderstorms, was also home to a Legendary Pokémon, the Lightning God Zapdos.
It was said that the island's stormy environment had been maintained for over a century because of Zapdos.
As for Ice Island, covered with icebergs, it was the same, home to the Ice God Articuno.
All three Pokémon, each one should have reached the Legendary Realm. Clearly, the three tablets were located in their respective territories.
At this point, Fang Yuan hadn't yet decided how to demand them...
"Judging from the movie, none of the three Divine Birds have very good tempers. Now that I know the location, let's leave it for today. It's already very late anyway. Let's have Mewtwo, Celebi and the others prepare a bit. Later on, everyone will come over and accompany me to ask for the tablets..."
"When it comes to saving the world, it's best to play it safe."
