What excited Akira the most wasn't just obtaining S- rank Tyranitar. The key point is that this is only his third Pokémon! In the future, as he visits more locations, his number of Pokémon will continue to increase, and Akira strength will keep growing rapidly!
Standing on the large sand dune that Tyranitar had forcefully gathered through a sandstorm, with a gentle breeze brushing his face.
Akira felt an indescribable sense of exhilaration in his heart. Tyranitar stood behind him, like a heavy tower, exuding an inexplicable sense of security.
Gardevoir and Gengar stood on his left and right respectively. Their faces were also filled with excited smiles, knowing they had gained another Pokémon companion.
Whether on Earth or after arriving in the Hunter world, this was the first time Akira had wielded such formidable power. For a moment, Akira even entertained the thought of playing the role of a Homelander-like figure for fun. But after the evening breeze passed, Akira dismissed that idea.
He wasn't an ambitious person. Even with top-tier strength, he had no desire to do anything heinous. Greater strength would make his path to pursuing dreams even smoother! To be a free-spirited traveler, eat more delicious food, and collect more Pokémon.
To adhere to his principles and, when encountering things he couldn't stand, be a hero driven by his own interests! This was Akira vision for his future life!

Looking down from the airship, the scene on the ground was astonishing. An island was surrounded by an ocean mostly made of ice, with most of the island covered in snow, a pure white expanse. But at the center of the island was a massive "circular hole," with faint red light flowing within.
The area around the "circular hole" was primarily black soil, with several cities built upon it.
Kila Volcano, at the northwest corner of the Kingdom of Kukan'yu. Known as the world's largest volcano, it is also the most unique.
This volcano is quite unique—it's not only the largest volcano but also a perpetually ice-covered active volcano. This couldn't help but remind him of Iceland on Earth. Although Iceland is located in the frigid zone with average temperatures below zero, almost the entire country sits atop volcanic rock.
Even in sub-zero temperatures, it still boasts an active volcano that spews lava. This is almost identical to the Kila Volcano before him!
This is the next destination Akira has chosen! After determining that the birth of Pokémon is related to the local environment, Akira began searching for special locations.
Finally, he found Kila Volcano!
It is not only the largest volcano but also the most unique—surrounded by icy seas, with a volcano at its core. This couldn't help but remind Akira of a legendary Pokémon—White Kyurem! It can wield both ice and fire abilities! This is strikingly similar to Kila Volcano!
Nevertheless, Akira came here with a trial mindset. After all, based on his experience obtaining the pseudo-legendary Tyranitar in the Samok Desert, he didn't believe he could acquire a legendary Pokémon of that caliber here.
Perhaps he would need to venture into the mysterious Dark Continent to obtain a legendary-level existence?
The second reason is that there is a recently famous ruin near Kila Volcano called the Moros Ruins. It is said that someone recently spotted traces of the Seven Great Beauties of the World deep within the ruins.
The Seven Great Beauties of the World are undoubtedly a unique feature of the Hunter x Hunter world. They are:
Aqua Glass: This is a type of vine plant that grows on dormant volcanoes (long-dormant active volcanoes) that are perpetually ice-covered, such as Japan Mount Fuji. Due to its absorption of sulfur-containing compounds, it loses anthocyanins, causing the entire plant to become transparent and exhibit a mineral-like luster, with an overall transparent color.
Scarlet Eyes: These are the eyes of the Kurta Clan. When they are emotionally agitated, their pupils turn red. If they die while emotionally agitated, the red pupils will never fade, giving them an overall red appearance.
Liquid Titanium Ore: The formation environment of this ore is unclear. It only appeared once in ancient times, making it extremely rare. The extracted ore solidifies as temperatures drop. Liquid titanium ore is not pure titanium; its internal temperature is extremely high, and the ore is highly volatile.
Currently, preserved liquid titanium ore is extremely rare, characterized by its hardness and the ability to emit a faint icy blue glow at night, with an overall deep blue color.
Crystal Feather Bone: This is the bone of a bird feather. Although this bird is not extinct, its numbers are extremely scarce, with only about 200 globally. Its color resembles black crystal and is toxic.
It sounds similar to the poisonous feathers of the Blue Star's dove, but the Crystal Feather Bone is likely a result of natural genetics or environmental pollution, with an overall black color.
Colorful Egg: This is the egg of an unknown phantom beast. Its shell is very thin and can irregularly display various colors, giving it an overall colorful appearance.
White Fire: This is a fish that lives in the deep seas of the polar regions. It is extremely difficult to catch and hard to raise. Its body is combustible, like natural gas, and can produce beautiful white flames while alive. However, its corpse rots after death.
Mystery (Unknown): This is the last of the Seven Great Beauties, described as a colossal enigma. Akira felt that this was most likely a foreshadowing planted by the cunning old fox, Togashi.
This time, the legend that appeared in the Moros Ruins was none other than—Aqua Glass!
