Ultraman cubs begin to wreak havoc.

Nexus unhesitatingly activated its Meta Domain. Since the enemy was creating a gravity field that was favorable to it, it would create its own domain space to counter it.

“Phase folds? Interesting, but not enough to deal with me, フォッフォッフォッフォッ…”

Amidst the Dark Baltan alien's distinctive laughter, the alien's figure vanished from the Meta Realm. Nexus, after confirming that it was neither an illusion nor a hallucination, had no choice but to dispel it.

"Well, have you seen it now?"

The Dark Baltan alien used the gravitational field to manipulate the seawater, hurling it towards Nexus and Tiga, and said smugly:

“The technology of Baltan surpasses that of the Land of Light. You have no chance of winning. We Baltans only want a satisfactory, habitable planet. If you surrender now, I can let you leave.”

"Mr. Daigo, let me clarify first: the techniques are working in your favor, not the other way around. The use of light energy and psychic power is entirely at your command."

Seeing the still somewhat clumsy Tiga beside him, Subaru Gen used his mental abilities to give him a hint before rushing towards the Dark Baltan alien.

Seeing the unyielding Nexus, the Dark Baltan alien's eyes also flashed with killing intent. He began to alter the gravity field to break Nexus's balance. However, he did not expect that at the moment he changed the gravity, Nexus also adjusted with astonishing speed, charged towards him in the same direction, and threw a sharp guillotine.

"Humph!"

Dark Baltan snorted and immediately attached his powerful telekinesis to the guillotine, intending to control it to cut back. However, Nexus also realized this and without hesitation covered it with Ultra telekinesis as well.

In an instant, a terrifying psychic shockwave erupted in the air. Daigo Madoka, who had only just learned how to navigate this gravitational field, was immediately thrown back. In that instant, Madoka realized something: this battle seemed a bit 'beyond his current capabilities'...

078 Zero - The Pain Mask

This guy's telekinesis is surprisingly good.

Looking at the severed blade that had shattered due to the psychic impact, the Dark Baltan alien muttered to himself. After all, during the battle with Ultraman Max, another version of himself had used psychic power to control Ultraman Max's head crest.

Controlling the head-mounted weapon is not as simple as it seems. It requires powerful telekinesis to control the head-mounted weapon in combat. Not every Ultraman has enough ability to control the head-mounted weapon. For example, Seven and Max mastered the head-mounted weapon through long-term hard training, thus becoming one of the top warriors among the Ultra Warriors.

Therefore, Ultraman who can control the head-mounted boomerang are all masters of telekinesis, and those who can fight against them with telekinesis must also have a high level of telekinesis.

However, the technology of us Dark Baltans is far more than just telekinesis!

Seeing Nexus attack him with telekinesis, the Dark Baltan alien sneered, dragging his afterimage as he teleported to the side. However, his afterimage did not disappear, but turned into a physical form. In the blink of an eye, one Dark Baltan alien after another appeared in the air, densely packed, numbering in the thousands. This scene made Daigo Madoka's eyes widen in astonishment.

"Don't panic, don't fret. In battle, you only need to think about one thing: how to kill the enemy."

Gen Subaru looked at the stunned Tiga and immediately understood Daigo Madoka's situation. He used telepathy to remind him. At the same time, the boy also understood the Dark Baltan aliens' trick. These Dark Baltan aliens that were thrown out were the ones who had merged with him in the dungeon. The so-called afterimages turning into reality were just those clones that had quietly separated long ago, and they had just deactivated their invisibility.

However, it cannot be denied that these clones are surprisingly powerful. According to the feedback from psychic perception, there is no difference between these clones and the original body. This is even more powerful than the clone technique that Tiga taught him. After all, he could not create so many clones and still ensure that the individual light energy level did not decrease.

I want to learn it, I really want to learn it.

But... I'm afraid they won't teach me...

Gen Subaru sighed with some regret, then slowly assumed a fighting stance, quietly awaiting the enemy's attack methods to determine his next move.

On the other side, Daigo also rallied. Tiga crossed his hands in front of his forehead, and blue light gathered from all around towards the energy lamp on his chest. As he lowered his arms, he switched to a blue-purple aerial form and launched an attack on the Dark Baltan aliens.

The Dark Baltan aliens realized that while the Ultraman's machine was powerful, the pilot's skills were lacking. Therefore, they only sent a small group of clones to fight it, focusing their main attack on Nexus.

Are they planning to wait for me to make the first move?

Listening to the sounds of battle coming from Daigo's side, Subaru Gen observed the stalemate in front of him and made a plan in his mind.

I'll go first!

Doppelgänger!

Five clones emerged from behind Nexus, and then the six Ultra Warriors simultaneously concentrated the intensified energy in their cores, then pushed it outwards, instantly forming a terrifying timer lightning storm that swept towards the Dark Baltan aliens in the sky.

What kind of magical solar energy storage is this?

Looking at the storm that resembled the arrival of death, the Dark Baltan aliens all had this thought in their minds: if it were Ultraman Max, one shot would take away most of the light energy, but this Ultraman was completely unharmed. It was truly outrageous.

But no matter how outrageous it is, it doesn't matter. Baltan Technology is number one in the universe!

The countless Dark Baltans immediately unleashed orange destructive beams from their pincers, the light so intense that it overshadowed even sunlight, and the lightning storm was instantly shattered.

At that moment, five figures darted through the dense light, rushing into the densely populated area of ​​the Dark Baltan aliens in the blink of an eye, amidst the crimson glow, triggering a terrifying explosion.

'Ultra Bomb! Is this Taro's disciple?'

The Dark Baltan aliens obtained an unexpected answer through rapid data analysis, and at the same time, they made a ruthless decision to end the battle quickly.

After all, as everyone knows, the Ultra Warriors of the Land of Light can call for reinforcements whenever they want, and they might even be able to call on Father of Ultra to help them fight. Such troublesome creatures must be suppressed immediately and prevented from having a chance to ask for help!

Thinking of this, some of the Dark Baltan aliens released ring-shaped beams of light from their pincers and ensnared Nexus. Nexus tried his best to dodge a few times, but was eventually locked in.

Seeing this, Daigo immediately tried to break out of the encirclement, but he wasn't really going to rescue anyone. He was just making a feint. He had seen Subaru's mysterious gray mist before and could tell that the binding rings couldn't possibly counteract the power of that mist.

Therefore, it is foreseeable that this was a deliberate trap set by Subaru, and there must be a deeper meaning behind it. He only needs to cooperate with the performance and deceive the Dark Baltan aliens.

On the other side, after noticing Tiga's rescue operation, the Dark Baltan aliens also began their next killing move. They unleashed a powerful telekinetic attack and a violent destructive beam at Nexus in one go. Seeing this, Daigo Madoka immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Although this boy was much more experienced in combat than himself, could he really do it in this situation?

At this critical moment, the Dark Baltan aliens suddenly discovered a problem: the energy ring binding Nexus was gone. Had it been broken?

No! It's been absorbed!?

The Dark Baltan alien, who had examined the video recording at the speed of light, was shocked to reach this conclusion. Then, the alien realized something, but it was too late. The moment the destructive ray struck Nexus, it did indeed groan in pain, but the energy of the destructive ray was also being rapidly absorbed, transformed, and processed.

As for that psychic explosion...

The Dark Baltan alien watched as Nexus, whose body was radiating unusual energy fluctuations due to absorbing too much energy, and also saw the telekinetic energy that had been prematurely detonated by the energy fluctuations. He couldn't help but silently increase the distance between himself and Nexus.

Isn't this guy afraid of bursting himself? Do the Ultraman disciples in the Land of Light all teach such wild methods?

"Die!!!"

This excess energy was indeed a bit overwhelming for Subaru, but it wasn't a big problem; he just needed to release it!

Five clones reappeared behind Nexus, surrounding his main body with their backs turned. Then, five M87 beams shot out, wiping out the Dark Baltan aliens in the air like harvesting leeks.

"Useless, useless, useless!"

Dark Baltan roared in the air, and all its clones merged back together, transforming into a colossal creature over three hundred meters tall. Nexus clones then focused the M78 Beam on a single point, unleashing even more terrifying power as they charged toward the Dynamaxed Dark Baltan.

"I already told you, it's no use!"

The Dark Baltan alien raised its pincers, and the reflective organ on its chest caught the M87 beam head-on. From the pincers, it retaliated against Nexus with the absorbed energy.

As Dark Baltan Alien had expected, Nexus dared not adapt to or absorb this counterattack energy. This was different from the previous situation. This counterattack had the power to kill him with a single shot. If he could withstand this, Dark Baltan Alien would turn and run without saying a word. After all, fighting an Ultra Warrior with cheat codes was a bit too risky.

No, if this continues, Gen Subaru won't be able to hold on!

Daigo Madoka sensed something was wrong and quickly attacked from behind Dark Baltan, launching a full-scale assault. Although Dynamaxing turned Dark Baltan into an easy target, compared to a human being bitten by a mosquito without even noticing, Tiga's attack did not cause much damage.

What should I do? What should I do? What should I do?!

Daigo Madoka was sweating profusely with anxiety. The power of the Dark Baltan aliens far exceeded his imagination, to the point that he couldn't think of any way to win.

'Darkness and light are simply two manifestations of power...'

At this moment, Subaru's words echoed in his mind. He looked at the Dynamaxed Dark Baltan alien and silently placed his hand on his chest. He felt it, felt the powerlessness he felt when he fought Dark Mesfeld and Garbelos last time. And it was on that occasion that, although his consciousness was somewhat blurred, he could vaguely feel that when he made a desperate gamble, something deep in his soul responded to him.

Since that's the case, then respond to me one more time. This time, I will face everything head-on!

In that instant, Yuan Mao's consciousness suddenly sank into boundless darkness, his hideous, narrow, orange-red eyes emerged, and a faint, maniacal laugh echoed in Yuan Mao's ears. The ominous aura grew stronger, and the sense of impending death made the boy's intuition constantly urge him to leave.

At that moment, the pair of orange-red eyes sensed Subaru's presence. Although their position remained unchanged, Subaru could clearly feel the terrifying mental pressure suddenly descending. He grunted, exerting all his strength to keep from collapsing to the ground, and, meeting the eyes' gaze, spread his arms wide and said in a deep voice:

Give me your power!

Those orange-red eyes didn't respond, but the pressure grew even more terrifying. Subaru, who refused to collapse, could even hear the bones in his body cracking.

I said...give it to me!

Gen Subaru's eyebrows shot up as he roared at the eyes. This time, the eyes finally reacted, and orange-red beams of light enveloped the boy's figure. Endless darkness began to pour into his consciousness.

"ah!!!"

Meanwhile, in reality, Nexus's main body suddenly let out a shrill howl. The five clones that were firing the M87 beam instantly reorganized their energy, transforming into bizarre, pumpkin-head-like energy bodies emitting black smoke. They opened their mouths full of fangs and, like gnawers, advanced while devouring the Dark Baltan aliens' beams, and were rapidly growing larger.

In the blink of an eye, the energy head became even larger than the current Dark Baltan alien, opening its maw to swallow the alien whole.

What the hell is this? !

The Dark Baltan alien struggled fiercely and finally managed to neutralize the energy body in its head. Then it saw Nexus suddenly appear, pouncing on its face like a wild beast, using all four limbs. A Venus flytrap-like mandible emerged from the energy core in its chest and bit down hard. In that instant, the Dark Baltan alien felt its energy vanish like snowflakes.

Damn it, what the hell is this Ultraman?!

Dark Baltan hurriedly deactivated its Dynamax form and scattered its clones, intending to implement a new tactic to suppress or even overwhelm Ultraman.

but....

"Help!!"

'No, no!!'

'I don't want to be eaten! I don't want to be eaten!!'

The Dark Baltan starman watched in horror as tentacle-like hands flew out from behind Nexus, grabbed his clone, and assimilated it in a matter of moments, absorbing it as energy. This process became increasingly rapid as the number of clones absorbed increased.

Has the Land of Light degenerated to the point of training Ultra Warriors like this...?

The Dark Baltan alien released all his clones with trepidation. He could feel that he was locked on and could not escape. Only a desperate fight would give him a chance of survival.

"Subaru! Subaru! What's wrong with you!"

At this moment, Daigo Madoka rushed to Nexus's side, grabbed Nexus's shoulders with both hands, and asked anxiously. Nexus in front of him had undergone a complete transformation. Black and purple replaced the original silver and black, and ashen patterns climbed all over its body. This eerie aura seemed to be twisting Nexus into other shapes.

“…”

Nexus coldly slapped Tiga's hands away, then placed his left hand on his right shoulder, shook his neck a few times, and whispered in a chilling tone:
