Ultraman cubs begin to wreak havoc.

Takayama Gamu said in a somewhat pained tone:

"I even dreamt about torturing and killing Subaru, and even today..."

"Do you still dream about torturing Subaru and Daigo together with everyone?"

"Hey?!"

Upon hearing Fujimiya Hiroya's words, Takayama Gamu suddenly looked up and met the gaze of his old partner. The two then began to examine the details of each other's dreams and soon discovered that this dream... did not seem to be a coincidence.

"Is it possible that this is a unique ability that Subaru possesses?"

Fujimiya Hiroya took a sip of water and said thoughtfully:

"And he himself is completely unaware of this ability; otherwise, given his personality, he wouldn't have made us suffer this pain."

"If that's the case, then wouldn't the other Ultra Warriors be like you and me, possessing self-awareness but unable to act independently?"

I daydreamed for a moment, then rubbed my shoulders, getting goosebumps, and whispered:

"Who gave Subaru this ability? It's so evil and terrifying."

"I don't know, but we definitely have a new experimental project now."

Fujimiya Hiroya swirled his glass and said in a low voice:

“We need to find a way to inform Subaru of this, or find another way to gain autonomy in the dream world. This situation is really getting worse.”

"Hmm! At the very least, we need to find a way to break free from that dream control. I have a feeling there's a huge conspiracy behind this."

Takayama Gamu and Fujimiya Hiroya immediately began new research. Meanwhile, after waking up, Gen Subaru also received a notification from the medical department asking him to come for a physical examination. The results of the experiment were unexpected. Not only did Gen Subaru's cells show a stable trend, but the relevant coefficients also showed some positive progress, which was a pleasant surprise.

And just as Shiori Hiraki had noticed before, Subaru's height had indeed decreased. He was originally 1.86 meters tall, but now he was only about 1.84 meters tall. According to medical staff, this was probably a result of his cells stabilizing, which allowed his overly intense metabolism to return to normal. As a result, the boy's body began to develop in a way that was appropriate for his age.

However, this kind of development is not without limits. For example, Minamoto no Subaru used to look mature at twenty-four or twenty-five years old. After the regression, he should at most be fixed at around thirteen or fourteen years old, and will not actually regress to the appearance of a four-year-old.

Hearing this, Yuan Mao breathed a sigh of relief. Just thinking about how he was a four-year-old baby, wearing diapers and riding a baby walker, rushing into battle, the enemy would probably laugh themselves to death first.

"Subaru, come back for another check-up tomorrow morning."

The doctor, looking at Yuan Mao's physical data, said softly:

"Although our current assessment is that your physical degeneration will end within a week, this involves the fields of 'light' and cells, so we need to be careful. If possible, I hope you can avoid using that new life force as much as possible."

"I understand. Thank you, doctor."

Gen Subaru nodded, earnestly agreeing. After saying goodbye, he headed outside, but halfway there, he remembered something, turned back, and softly asked:

"Um, doctor, will I always look like I'm thirteen or fourteen years old?"

"Will not."

The doctor smiled and patted Yuan Mao on the shoulder, saying softly:

"Instead of saying that you'll grow back to be more handsome than you are now, you'll be just as tall, and you won't be this skinny. Men are better looking when they're a bit stronger."

"Mmm, you're absolutely right. I'm going to train now, bye-bye~~~"

"Bye, see you tomorrow."

Watching the boy run away, the doctor smiled and placed the report down. He then connected with Matsunaga Yoichiro's communication system to report the results. When pressed about the cell stability, the doctor thought for a moment and said softly:

"It's about the situation has improved from needing to inject cell stabilizers once a day to being able to inject them every two days. But in any case, Manager Matsunaga, this is a good sign. At least Gen Subaru has bought us more time."

"I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Yu. I'll be working hard on you from now on."

After saying that, Matsunaga Yoichiro hung up the phone. Looking at Ishibori Mitsuhiko waiting for him, he understood the purpose of his visit, sighed, and said softly:

"Although Sakura Kiyomi is insane now, she is still the elder who raised Subaru, so... go easy on her, don't kill her."

“I know. For Subaru’s sake, I won’t go too far with her. Thank you for your permission, Manager Matsunaga.”

Mitsuhiko Ishibori bowed gratefully to Yoichiro Matsunaga and said in a deep voice:

"Believe me, soon... Dark Zagi will have nowhere to hide."

"It's not that I trust you that I'm like this... never mind."

Matsunaga Yoichiro adjusted his glasses, looked out the window, and said softly:

"I just... hope to see the report as soon as possible. Judging from the current trend, humanity... I'm afraid it won't last much longer."

"Yes, I'll get busy now."

Mitsuhiko Ishibori nodded, turned around, and walked away with firm steps. As he left, Chief Koyanagi pushed open the door and strode in. It seemed the work of the memory police wasn't progressing very smoothly...

Gen Subaru was currently continuing his research on the 'Ultimate Cross Barrier' in the training ground. He had to admit, the more he studied this seal, the more interesting it became. The young man felt he had a new idea to try and develop... um...

Suddenly, Gen Subaru felt a sharp, throbbing pain in the back of his neck and the back of his head, which caused him to deactivate his Nexus form and collapse to the ground. He gasped for breath, feeling as if his body was boiling, but immediately all the discomfort and pain disappeared, as if it had just been his imagination.

But Yuan Mao understood that these were symptoms of his body deteriorating. The doctor had already told him this and advised him not to resist when the pain occurred, so that his cells would be more stable after the pain subsided.

Honestly, this body of mine is such a pain. Sometimes I think a body made of light particles would be pretty good.

Yuan Mao got up from the ground, wiped his sweat with some helplessness, and planned to continue the next training session. At this moment, he vaguely heard some sound. The boy, who was quite experienced in this kind of thing, immediately stopped what he was doing, crossed his arms, lay peacefully on the ground, and closed his eyes.

Sure enough, someone else was calling for help, but...

"Zero, can you hear me, Zero? I need your power. A world is dying..."

If Gen Subaru wasn't mistaken, it should be Dyna's voice. And the person he was trying to shake seemed to be Zero, but for some reason, this 'distress call' was coming to him. Could this be the manifestation of the half-baked spacetime force that Gai mentioned?

But regardless, since this 'call' has already been made, I should still help if I can, even though I'm not Zero! I don't think I'll lose to any Ultra Warrior! Hmph!

Therefore, Gen Subaru accepted Dyna's request without hesitation, transformed into a light particle, and headed to that unknown universe.

Meanwhile, in the Land of Light, Zero suddenly shook his head vigorously, and a member of the Silver Cross Army beside him asked with concern:

"Zero, are you feeling unwell anywhere again?"

"No, just now, suddenly, I thought I heard something calling out, but it's not there now. I guess I was just under too much pressure and hallucinating. Um, can I be alone for a while?"

"Okay, please contact us if you feel unwell. Goodbye."

After speaking, the Silver Cross member prepared to leave the ward. As the door opened, Seven appeared on the other side. He nodded to the Silver Cross member, then entered the ward and sat down beside his son…

093 Exploding Old Man Star!

"Zero, it's about time we got out of here."

Seven looked at his son, who was sitting by the window in a daze, sighed helplessly, sat down beside him, and said softly:

"This is not the solution."

"Dad, I know, I understand all these principles."

Zero paused for a moment, then said softly:

"But... I still don't know how to face it. If it weren't for my carelessness, the subterranean people on that planet wouldn't have been slaughtered, and that... Subaru, the four-year-old Ultra Warrior on Earth, and his companions wouldn't have died. Thinking about this, I... I really don't know how to face it... Do I... really deserve to be an Ultra Warrior?"

"Zero, don't avoid it, you have to face him!"

Seven gently patted Zero's shoulder and said in a deep voice:

"Although the sacrifice of those two Ultra Warriors is heartbreaking, if it becomes an obstacle that stops you from moving forward, then that would truly be a disgrace to the name 'Ultra Warrior'! Those two Ultra Warriors who sacrificed their lives would also feel heartbroken because of this! Zero, cheer up, there are many more people in the universe waiting for our help!"

"Dad..."

Zero, his voice trembling slightly, reached out his hand to his father. Seven grasped it firmly, nodded, and said softly:

"Zero, I'm not a father who's good at expressing myself, and maybe I'm not even a good father, but I will always stand behind you and support you!"

"Dad!"

For years, Zero hadn't had such a heart-to-heart talk with his father. Such profound paternal love moved him deeply. Seven sighed, gently patting Zero's shoulder in comfort. And at that moment...

"This is... Man's Ultra Signature?"

Seven looked at the flashing Ultraman signatures outside the window and was a little confused. He hadn't even left the Land of Light, nor had he gone on a mission. It was only a short distance away, so why were they sending Ultraman signatures? And why did he have to take Zero with him? Had some major event happened again?

Thinking of this, Seven glanced at Zero, who nodded firmly in his eyes. Then the father and son saw Eddie sitting restlessly in his chair, wishing he could escape from there immediately.

No wonder, after all... Zoffy stood up to let him sit in this seat, the First Ultra was pouring him a drink, Ace was fanning him with his skills, Taro was massaging his shoulders, and Father of Ultra was standing opposite him, smiling and stroking his beard.

To be honest, with this kind of treatment, Eddie felt like he was being given his last meal before execution. If he had a choice, he would have turned around and run away right now.

'Um... Eddie, what happened?'

This scene made Eddie panic, and even Seven and Zero were unsure of themselves and didn't dare to go in. The father and son lay prostrate outside the door, and Seven secretly used telepathy to inquire. Well, for some reason, Father of Ultra's attitude towards him had been quite subtle these past two days, so if possible, he would like to avoid Father of Ultra.

"I don't know either. I just came to ask Hikari for help analyzing the data, and I don't know how this happened. Seven, has everyone been controlled by Belial's power?!"

"Alright, what are you whispering about? Seven, Zero, come in!"

Hearing Father of Ultra's words, Seven and Zero immediately walked in obediently, called out "Father (Grandpa)" and waited quietly for what was to come.

"Eddie, tell them what's going on. We'll go to Hikari's place and wait for you."

Surprisingly, after bringing the two in, Father of Ultra didn't say much. He just smiled and called the others away, leaving Eddie, Seven, and Zero standing there looking at each other.

"What... what's wrong with everyone?"

Finally free from that chair, Eddie quickly rubbed his arms and said, still feeling a bit sore:

"This is terrifying."
