In the frozen Giant Chasm, Ghetsis orders Kyurem to continue spreading its ice over Unova and freeze the continent completely. As Kyurem releases another wave of ice, a blast of fire appears to intercept it. Ghetsis notes the presence of N and Reshiram, who has come to stop his plans. Ghetsis addresses N as "the freak without a human heart", while N expresses his desire to stop Kyurem's further suffering, and his wish to protect the realm of Unova, in which he learned how to live as a human.
Ghetsis remarks that N's speech proves that his training to be king wasn't a complete waste, but nonetheless notes N's roles in ruining his plans for world domination, and activates the DNA Splicers. Under its power, Kyurem releases a series of energy restraints from its icy spikes, eventually trapping Reshiram despite its best attempts to evade them. Kyurem forcibly draws Reshiram inside itself, transforming into White Kyurem.
N expresses his disbelief that Pokémon have the ability to fuse. Ghetsis berates N for choosing to abandon his path to kinghood, forcing Ghetsis to take over Unova by force, and orders White Kyurem to freeze N solid. Feeling Reshiram's voice from inside White Kyurem, N confirms that Reshiram can still be separated. Unhinged, Ghetsis angrily claims that people and Pokémon are mere tools for him to achieve his goals. Despite his misgivings, N addresses Ghetsis as his father, telling him that people and Pokémon can achieve stronger ideals and dreams by collaborating. Ghetsis demands for N to keep quiet, addressing him again as a freak since no human could ever talk to a Pokémon".
Just as White Kyurem unleashes its Ice Burn, a blast of electricity intercepts it before the attack can hit N. N realizes that Zekrom and Hilbert have arrived, and Ghetsis grimaces. The episode ends as both legendary Dragon-type Pokémon stare each other down, ready for the confrontation.
