Ultraman cubs begin to wreak havoc.

The dark giant, transformed from Makoto Mizoroki, looked at Nexus, who was struggling to create a barrier to block the attack, and the Night Raid fighters trying to find an opportunity to break through. He let out a disdainful snort, waved his hand, and a huge ball of dark energy rose into the sky again. A rain of energy beams poured down. If Nexus hadn't rushed over and used his body to protect the fighters that had already broken through halfway, he and Eisuke Kurauchi would have been killed.

However, as a price, the giant of light, already poisoned, became shaky and even began to veil itself under such dense and powerful attacks.

To this, Goro Mokujin let out a satisfied chuckle. He flicked his hand, and the sound of a weapon being drawn echoed in the black mist. He walked step by step toward Nexus. He had already decided that he would stab the giant of light in the back of the neck, then cut him open along the spine, so that this annoying host would leave this world forever!

But just then, Nexus, who was struggling to hold on, heard a familiar voice. It was a message from telepathy, very brief, containing only one sentence:

Hang in there, I'm coming!

"call!"

As the words fell, a whistling wind slammed into Mizoroki Shinya. The tattered Dark Faust lifted him high and then slammed him away. At the same time, he stretched out his arms to gather energy, then brought his fists together and fired an electric-shaped ray, predicting Mizoroki Shinya's trajectory, and blasted it away.

However, this is the Dark Realm, and the player who created the Dark Faust piece naturally also has the ability to move freely within this realm. Just as the player was about to land, a black vortex appeared on the ground, absorbing him and thus avoiding the Dark Faust's killing move.

However, it didn't matter that he missed. Dark Faust turned around, placed his hand on the energy lamp on his chest, and pushed it towards Nexus. The light that had just been plundered began to slowly flow back into the body of the giant of light.

"Faust, are you going to betray me?"

"Shut up!"

At this moment, Goroki Makoto also rose from the ground vortex not far away, opened his hand towards Nexus, and fired out dark energy, but Dark Faust slapped it away with a palm. After hearing Goroki Makoto's question, he angrily retaliated with a feather of particles, took a fighting stance, and said in a deep voice:

"I am Shunichi Maki, Ultraman Next!"

"Tsk... You should know how to be grateful!"

Watching Nexus desperately absorbing light energy to recover, Mizoroki clicked his tongue, brandished his weapon, and charged forward. Maki Shunichi immediately blocked his path, and during the exchange, Mizoroki spoke in a low voice:

"If it weren't for me, you would have been dead long ago."

"I'd rather die than be controlled by a scoundrel like you!"

Maki Shunichi pushed Mizoroki Shinya's hand away, but this gave him an opening, and he was kicked in the chest, flying backward. However, he didn't fall to the ground; Nexus caught him from behind. Meanwhile, behind Gen Subaru, the Night Raid team's fighter jet had already charged up, and an ultimate beam hit Nexus. The rapidly replenished light energy was transferred between Nexus and Dark Faust.

Seeing this, Goroki Makoto frowned and gathered energy in his right hand to unleash a powerful and explosive light bullet. But at that moment, countless cracks appeared on the surface of Dark Faust's body, and scorching light shot out from them, like a new life breaking out of its shell. This created an impact called 'light' in this dark domain, which weakened the black mist surrounding Goroki Makoto.

Looking at the giant beside Nexus, whose silver parts resembled armor and whose red parts showed muscles and veins, Kazuya Eisuke blinked and whispered:

"This is... Ultraman The Next!"

"Thank you, thank you for freeing me from that ugly posture."

"Don't say things like that. If it weren't for you, I'd probably be dead by now."

Subaru and Shunichi exchanged a smile, and then Next and Nexus assumed the same fighting stance and charged towards Mizoro Makoto.

"A small fry is a small fry, even if there are two of them!"

Gorokijin also twisted his neck in annoyance, then let out a low roar. The surrounding mist was drawn back into his body, and a new dark giant appeared before everyone—

His main body is black, red and white, with three protrusions on his head, like demon horns, and eyes as black as ink. There are protruding black shoulder armor on both sides of his shoulders, and a grappling hook weapon on his right wrist. There is a black energy lamp on his chest, and a white bow and arrow-shaped mark under the energy lamp. There are some pale white patterns on both sides of his waist, like ribs.

This is Shinya Mizoroki's giant form—Dark Mephisto!

"Come on, if you want to die, I'll grant your wish!"

Dark Mephisto wiped his grappling hook and charged menacingly at Nexus and Nexus. He truly didn't believe that these two crippled wrecks still had the strength to fight him.

Suddenly, Nexus and Next rolled to the sides of Dark Mephisto's body, revealing the Chrome Chester δ that they had been hiding behind. Without hesitation, they unleashed all the firepower from the newly modified fighter jet at Dark Mephisto. It was a pity that the reserves of the Ultimate Ray were already depleted, otherwise they could have taken the opportunity to deliver another powerful blow to Dark Mephisto.

The Night Raid's firepower didn't cause much damage to Dark Mephisto, but it did serve as a distraction. By the time he came to his senses, Nexter and Nexus had already formed a pincer movement and were attacking him from all sides.

Nexus started with a Particle Feather attack, which was swatted away by Dark Mephisto's claw, but it successfully closed the distance. Subaru ducked to avoid Dark Mephisto's hand chop and headbutted him in the chest, followed by a shoulder charge that disrupted the enemy's balance. Dark Mephisto took advantage of the situation and swung his claw at Shunichi Maki.

With a swing of his arms, Maki Shunichi launched two massive crescent-shaped light blades. One struck Dark Mephisto's grappling hook, deflecting it, while the other aimed straight for the enemy's neck. However, Dark Mephisto's grappling hook released green light bullets, completely neutralizing the light blades, and then followed up with a powerful and explosive Dark Grenade, forcing Maki Shunichi to retreat.

At that moment, Gen Subaru rushed in, but when he noticed that Dark Mephisto had turned around and was about to deal with him, Nexus immediately stopped attacking and rolled to the left of the enemy, avoiding a direct confrontation with Dark Mephisto and thwarting Mizoroki Shinya's counterattack.

At the same time, in the gap when Dark Mephisto turned to attack, Maki Shunichi also seized the opportunity and slashed the enemy's back with a hand chop. Mizoro Makoto, in pain, fired a grappling hook light bullet back, knocking Maki Shunichi back. However, Gen Subaru had already activated 'Cross Ray Storm', blasting Mizoro Makoto away. Before he could land, Maki Shunichi timed his kick perfectly and sent him flying again.

Meanwhile, after the ray ended, Gen Subaru sprinted forward, leaped into the air, performed a somersault, and then plummeted down, accurately kicking Dark Mephisto in the chest as he took off again. However, Mephisto also fired a powerful red Mephisto Shot, which struck Gen Subaru in the chest. The powerful force blasted Nexus into the air, but it was immediately caught by Maki Shunichi.

Damn it... Damn it!!!

Feeling the pain all over his body, Dark Mephisto, clutching his chest, got up from the ground. He had miscalculated; he hadn't expected the two of them to cooperate so well. Was this the tacit understanding between adaptable individuals?

However, what he hadn't anticipated was that this new host's energy reserves were so astonishing. After supporting Maki Shunichi's transformation, it could maintain the transformation for such a long time, which was truly unbelievable.

"Don't think you've won; it's just a way to let you continue to suffer..."

Looking at the giants of light standing side by side in front of him, Mizoroki Makoto instinctively wanted to move, but he noticed Nexus's restless hand. Considering the possibility of a trap, Dark Mephisto decided not to continue fighting. There was no need for him to continue fighting these two. In any case, Nexus would not appear again after today. Therefore, Mizoroki Makoto disappeared into the dark domain after leaving behind a sentence.

As the darkness dissipated, confirming that the enemy had left, the two giants immediately went limp and retreated, turning into countless points of light. The two adaptors collapsed helplessly on the wasteland.

Subaru! Subaru!!

The Night Raid team rushed over and, seeing the boy's face turn bluish-purple from the poison, immediately carried him towards the fighter jet. However, at that moment, the still conscious Minamoto Subaru interrupted his captain's actions, looking at the gradually fading Maki Shunichi beside him. He trembled as he raised his hand and opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but the spread of the poison had rendered the boy unable to make a sound.

"it does not matter."

Although he didn't say it aloud, Maki Shunichi understood what he meant and smiled as he said:

"I've already died once, so I'm already very content to have the chance to see this blue sky again and feel this cool breeze... Hmm?"

Before Maki Shunichi could finish speaking, Saijo Nagi seemed to understand something. She took out the communicator from the boy's pocket, quickly clicked on it, picked out a video from the database, and showed it to Maki Shunichi. It was a school sports meet, and the protagonist of the video was a child playing soccer, who was none other than Maki Shunichi's child.

"Thanks...."

As Maki Shunichi grew increasingly transparent, he stared greedily at the video, as if trying to etch the child's image into his soul. A single tear silently streamed down his resolute face. The adaptable individual, with a smile on his face, choked back tears as he said:

"I have no regrets at all. Thank you, Subaru..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Maki Shunichi completely vanished into the world. The dead had found peace, and the boy breathed a sigh of relief before falling into a deep coma. He was then rushed to TLT-J by the Night Raid team.

"Send it into the Stone Wings."

In the TLT-J medical department, Ichiro Mizuta looked at Subaru Gen's test report, sighed deeply, and said helplessly:

“Analysis and preparation of the antidote will take time. In addition, he continued to fight fiercely despite being poisoned, which has made his condition more complicated. Right now, we can only hope that Shi Zhiyi can buy us some time.”

"Damn alien beast, damn Mizoroki Shinya!"

Matsunaga Yoichiro slammed his fist on the table, his face ashen. In less than a week, Minamoto Subaru had been on the verge of death twice. This kind of thing... this kind of thing...

Getting angry is useless.

Mizuta Ichiro knew his old classmate's temperament all too well, and while tidying up the documents, he said:

"Don't waste the precious time this child has bought us. Matsunaga, send over a few death row inmates. My experiments here can't wait for the results any longer."

"Okay, feel free to make any requests you have. The officers won't object."

After speaking, Matsunaga Yoichiro glanced at Ishino Tsubasa next door through the glass window, then silently walked out. Outside the door, Ishibori Mitsuhiko, who seemed to have been waiting for a long time, followed the manager and said softly:

"I have an idea about Zaki, and I hope the management will listen to it..."

Meanwhile, in the Land of Light, Ultraman was sparring with Ultraman Jack at the Ultra Dojo when suddenly, he paused and instinctively said:

"coming!"

"It's here?" Jack was taken aback at first, then realized, "Oh, is that feeling coming?!"

"That's right, I'm going to find Hikari!"

'Wash the socks!'

With a low growl, the First Warrior took off and hurried towards the Space Science and Technology Bureau. On the way, he felt the drowsiness growing stronger, almost causing him to crash into a nearby building. But as a seasoned Warrior of Light, how could he be defeated by such a small amount of sleepiness? He maintained his focus and rushed into the Space Science and Technology Bureau, finding Hikari and saying:

"That feeling is coming back to me!"

"Quick! Lie down! Sleep!"

Hikari hurriedly pulled out a specially made instrument bed, had the First Hokage lie down, and then covered it with a glass cover, nervously preparing to record every piece of data. But after a moment, the First Hokage silently pushed open the glass cover, sat on the edge of the bed, paused for a moment, and said softly:

"Well, that drowsiness... I think I managed to fight it off..."

"what?"

Hikari paused for a moment, then nodded understandingly without saying much. After all, he had experienced that feeling too; once you get through that period, you won't feel sleepy anymore.

"Then... Man, next time you're sleepy, just lie down and sleep. I'll make you a special communicator so I can find you after you fall asleep."

"That's all we can do... Sigh... How could things have turned out like this... Ouch...."

027 Codename 'Kamen Rider'

Just as the first generation was deeply regretting that he had overcome his drowsiness, Subaru Minamoto in Stone Wings had regained consciousness. It has to be said that the statue's regenerative ability is indeed very satisfying. It's just a pity that this thing might cause some side effects. Otherwise, it would be so comfortable to just lie down in it after the fight.

Subaru, how are you feeling right now?

Seeing the boy emerge from the Stone Wing, Ichinomiya Mizuta, who hadn't slept all night, approached with bloodshot eyes, patted Subaru Minamoto nervously, and asked with concern. Subaru spread his arms, spun around on the spot, then struck a strong pose and said with a smile:

"Everything is fine!"

"As expected of Stone Wing, he completed the medical work so quickly. It's truly astonishing."

Ichinō Mizuta collected some of Subaru Minamoto's blood, dripped it into a test tube, and, looking at the unchanging reagent, couldn't help but sigh and say:

"If your cells can stabilize, that would be great. Then Stone Wings would be a pretty good backup support for you."

"It counts now too."

As Yuan Mao took off his hospital gown, he calmly took out his coat from a nearby box and said:
