Ultraman cubs begin to wreak havoc.

A question mark appeared above Taro's head, utterly bewildered. The First Generation, expressionless, said:

“If we’re all trying to discuss something, and you’re the only one pretending to be asleep, who else would we surround ourselves with if not you?”

"Ah, this? Hahaha... I thought..."

Upon hearing this, Taro quickly stepped aside, making room in the middle, and chuckled awkwardly. Jack glanced at him and continued:

Do you think we should blame you?

"Actually, I did have this idea at the beginning."

Ace crossed his arms and said softly:

"But then I thought, let alone ordinary Ultra Warriors, even if it were us, it would be very difficult to learn the [Ultra Bomb] from actual combat. I can only say that the kid is very smart. Taro, your more than 300 self-destructions were not in vain."

"Alright, that's enough."

Seeing Taro, who was now black and white and hunched over in the corner, Zoffy steered the conversation back on track and said seriously:

"Right now, we need to find Seven's whereabouts as soon as possible. That child has very likely already been touched by Seven himself. Once we find Seven, we may be able to find the coordinates of the child's plane!"

"Seven's records of actions... I think they're incomplete..."

Jack recalled for a moment and said helplessly:

"It's far too difficult to deduce the location of that wormhole based on this alone."

That's true. After all, when Ultra Warriors are on missions, they may encounter any unexpected situations. It would be unreasonable to require them to make mandatory periodic reports on their situations.

"Let's get everything ready first."

Ace thought for a moment and said softly:

"Especially things that could save lives, prepare more of them. That kid's fighting style is too reckless. If we don't get there, his condition might be quite bad."

"Okay, everyone should stay home for now. We'll start once either Seven or Zero returns."

Zoffy nodded, finalized the plan, and then, Taro, who had somehow ended his black-and-white transformation, quietly approached and whispered:

"There's one more thing... what do you think... should we try to find out who the child's mother is...?"

“…”

Upon hearing this, all the Ultra Brothers fell silent in thought. Zoffy pondered for a moment and then said softly:

"Let's wait for Zero to tell us about this himself. Zero is now an Ultra Warrior who can stand on his own."

At this point, Zoffy paused, then lowered his voice and continued:

"But...we need to be mentally prepared for something this big. Everyone, be careful when inquiring, don't alert anyone, and keep it strictly confidential regardless of the outcome."

Hearing this, the Ultra Brothers nodded in unison and left Taro's house to prepare for their own affairs. Taro quickly tidied up the house so his wife wouldn't have to work hard after returning from her business trip. Then, sitting in a chair and looking at Taiga's photo, a thought involuntarily popped into his mind—

Do you think he could have learned this skill by simply bombing Taiga hundreds of times back then?

The thought had barely crossed his mind when Taro slammed his head against the wall to clear his head. This wasn't a way to compare a child's abilities.

No, no, I need to go out and find something to do. My mind has been so chaotic lately.

Taro pulled the horn off the wall, repaired it with his skill, and hurriedly pushed open the door and left.

Meanwhile, in TLT-J, Subaru received a message from Yoichiro Matsunaga and rushed to the lab, where he saw Yu Kirasawa sitting there, waiting for him.

"Why did you show your true form this time?"

"Don't talk to me like I'm some rare antique."

Kirasawa Yu chuckled and made a sarcastic remark, then pushed the box in front of him toward Gen Subaru and said softly:

"open to take a look."

"This is... the lightsaber of that rabbit-eared alien?"

Yuan Mao opened it and took a look. Although it was much smaller, he still recognized it immediately. However, since he couldn't remember the exact name, he had to use the code name to refer to it.

"We recovered the weapons and equipment of the Rabbit-Eared Aliens."

Following Subaru's explanation, Kira Sawa Yuya continued:

"The materials used in those devices are incredibly varied, and TLT is accelerating its research. As for this one, we discovered through vibrations that it seems to resonate to some extent with Nexus's vibrations. Considering the existence of aliens, we suspect that it might be something from another Ultraman in the universe, so we applied for it and are letting you try it out."

A lightsaber...

To be honest, Gen Subaru really liked the lightsaber that popped out from his wrist; he thought it was really cool. But if he were to actually use it in a fight, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Then I'll go to the training ground and give it a try."

But no matter what, this is a weapon, and it will make dealing with the enemy much easier.

So, Gen Subaru happily arrived at the training ground, transformed into Nexus, and began trying to resonate with the lightsaber bracers, easily summoning the lightsaber inside.

But a new problem arose...

Gen Subaru glanced at the [Armed Nexus] on Nexus's wrist, then at the lightsaber bracers that had grown to a gigantic size, and fell into deep thought—

[Armed Nexus] can also summon a lightsaber.

This was something Nexus in its blue form had used during the initial projection training, but he hadn't been able to figure it out. After that, Nexus projections used its juvenile and red forms to train him, so he lost the opportunity to continue researching the lightsaber. Now...

Gen Subaru sat down cross-legged on the spot, repeatedly activating the lightsaber bracers while examining the [Armed Nexus], pondering how he should use the flow and structure of light energy to activate the lightsaber within.

And so, for the next week, Gen Subaru spent all his time in the training ground, constantly simulating the structure of a lightsaber, until Matsunaga Yoichiro arrived and pulled the head-bobbing Gen Subaru outside to breathe some fresh air.

"Matsunaga, I'm still clueless. It's nothing important, so please don't bother me."

Yuan Mao rubbed his temples, continuing to organize his thoughts. Based on his current understanding, the lightsaber attribute on the [Armed Nexus] didn't seem to be activated yet. It seemed that the [Armed Nexus] evolved along with Nexus's form. Therefore, to use the lightsaber now, he either had to develop it himself or find a way to fuse the lightsaber bracers with the [Armed Nexus]...

Haha... I forgot to ask Tiga-senpai before, why am I always stuck in the baby form and can't evolve into the youth form? Could it be that the evolution of this form is based on my age? No way...

"bump!!!"

Just as Gen Subaru was continuing his brainstorming, he was completely unaware of the changes in the outside world when he suddenly heard a slight explosion. He immediately and subconsciously threw Matsunaga Yoichiro, who was holding him, behind him. The Evolution Trust was then pulled out, and just as he was about to become Nexus, the boy noticed that ribbons were falling down.

what....

Gen Subaru stared blankly at the banner in front of him, which read "Gen Subaru's Weekly and Monthly Anniversary of Joining the Night Raid Team." The people standing on both sides of the banner were naturally the members of the Night Raid Team, and the explosion he had heard earlier was the sound of them pulling the fireworks.

"Subaru, pull me up."

Just then, Matsunaga Yoichiro's voice came from behind. The boy turned around and saw that the manager he had thrown into the pile of miscellaneous goods was lying on his back with his arms and legs in the air, struggling to get up for a long time. Genjiro blushed and hurriedly went over to pull Matsunaga Yoichiro out, saying apologetically:

"Um, sorry, I was thinking about something and didn't notice what was happening outside..."

"It's alright, it's alright, let's not worry about such a small problem!"

Shiori Hiraki smiled and came over, putting a top hat on Subaru's head. She then led him to the conference table, where a large cake was placed, decorated with chibi-style images of Nexus and Subaru, and four candles flickered on it. Nagi Saijo handed him a knife, smiling as she said:

"Come on, it's up to you to cut the first slice of this cake."

"You seem a little nervous."

Mitsuhiko Ishibori reached out and straightened Subaru's slightly crooked top hat, saying softly:

“We’ve seen how hard you’ve worked this month, so let’s relax a little today. We’ve booked tickets to the amusement park, and after we finish the cake, we’ll go out and have some fun together.”

"This leave was specially approved by three officers: Togo, Soma, and Koyanagi."

Matsunaga Yoichiro patted Minamoto Subaru on the shoulder and said softly:

So please don't refuse.

Come on, come on, relax.

Shiori Hiraki leaned closer, pinching Subaru's shoulders and playfully shaking him, while Nagi Saijo stuffed a chicken nugget into the boy's mouth and then said:

"Don't be too tense. Shiori is right. You need to learn to relax."

"How about we just take advantage of your vacation?"

Mitsuhiko Ishibori, who was adjusting his camera not far away, also chimed in:

"We don't usually have holidays."

As for Eisuke Wakura, the captain quietly turned off the lights, letting the candlelight on the cake illuminate the faces around him. Subaru Genji silently looked around, smiled, and nodded vigorously. Then, he raised the knife and gestured before making the first cut along the center line of Subaru Genji's portrait. Kazuo Matsunaga, standing next to him, cheered in unison, setting the stage for the lively atmosphere. The Night Raid team members also clapped enthusiastically.

Subaru's smile widened as he distributed cake to everyone. He asked Mitsuhiko Ishibori, who was standing to the side, to feed him some fries to satisfy his craving. Shiori Hiraki diligently poured drinks and followed behind Subaru, each person with a cup. Everyone held a cake in one hand and a drink in the other, welcoming Subaru's Zhou Yue to the team in unison, and waiting for the boy to raise his glass and drink first.

Upon seeing this, Gen Subaru hurriedly swallowed the chicken nugget he had just been fed, raised his glass, and happily said...

'Beep beep beep beep beep!!!'

The piercing alarm sounded, and everyone's expression changed instantly. With a flash of light, after Hekura Eisuke turned on the light and used it to cover the candlelight, sure enough, the boy had disappeared. In his place, there was a plate of cake and a glass of orange juice.

"Night Raid Team...."

Matsunaga Yoichiro closed his eyes, his facial muscles twitching slightly as if suppressing his anger. After a pause, he said coldly:

"Attack!!"

"Yes!" X4

"Be careful with this operation."

Kira Sawa's projection appeared immediately, and he, with an equally cold expression, said in a low voice:

"The enemy appeared in a town in the southwest corner of Kyoto! That area... was originally within the protection zone of the potential barrier!"

Upon hearing this, Eisuke Wakura and Yoichiro Matsunaga's expressions changed slightly, but now was clearly not the time to explain, and they hurriedly went to carry out their respective tasks.
