Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga

"This isn't the world either." Charika sat on the riverbank and sighed.

He has traveled the world several times, but still hasn't found the red ball.

Really!

How many worlds do we need to search to find it?

And another unexpected problem occurred this time.

That is, one of the monsters he captured suddenly disappeared.

That monster was captured by Charika in a world where he first saw the red ball and was on the verge of destruction.

As for why it disappeared...

Maybe he's dead.

Chariga pondered many reasons for the monsters' disappearance and ultimately came to this conclusion.

Charika knew perfectly well that the vanished monster was generated by the unknown energy of the red sphere.

This energy was materialized because of the 'desire' of someone in that world.

The monster disappeared either because it lacked energy or because the person who created it died.

Although he took the monster away and delayed the destruction of the world, it was only a delay.

That world was eventually destroyed after he left, and all of humanity perished.

When the person who created the monster dies, the monster will naturally disappear.

Although the monster disappeared, the energy that made it up still remained.

Chariga did not let this energy go to waste, using the secret techniques of the Monster Buyer to fix it and transform it into some kind of object.

He can use this unknown energy to locate the position of the red ball.

However, he has searched several worlds but has not been able to find the exact location of the red ball.

Charika played with the small red crystal in his hand, which was formed from the solidification of that unknown energy and could sense the power of the red ball.

At that moment, the red ball in his hand suddenly lit up, as if pointing the way.

"Here it comes! It's appeared again!" Charika's expression turned excited. He quickly opened the box in his hand, turned the button on the box, and then pushed a switch that looked like an electric switch.

Accompanied by tinkling music, the device inside the box lit up, and a white line emerged from the box, circling in front of it and forming a time tunnel.

"I'm about to set off," said Charlie, her belly protruding, as she stood in front of the time tunnel.

Then, he and the box were sucked into a distorted spacetime tunnel.

Following the guidance of the red energy stone in his hand, Charika continued to advance through the vortex of the wormhole.

Before long, he arrived at the exit of the time tunnel.

He jumped out of the wormhole and arrived in a city.

"This is it!" Charika adjusted his hat, picked up his black umbrella and carried his suitcase, staggering down the street, following the guidance of the red crystals as he searched for the red orb.

Charlija's Chaplin-esque attire did not attract much attention.

Pedestrians on the street simply assumed he was performing some kind of performance art.

A video store on the shopping street caught Charlie's attention.

The TV in this store is showing a tokusatsu drama about Ultraman Gaia.

"Ultraman..." Chariga watched the tokusatsu drama on TV and couldn't help but relax a lot.

Based on his experience traveling through many worlds, he discovered something very interesting.

In every parallel universe, there exists an Ultraman.

In some universes, Ultraman exists in real life, while in others, Ultraman only exists in tokusatsu dramas.

Those Ultraman only exist in parallel universes within tokusatsu dramas; under normal circumstances, Ultraman doesn't exist, and even monsters don't exist.

Those parallel universes without Ultraman tokusatsu series must contain real Ultraman and all sorts of monsters.

"Great! Without Ultraman, no one will bother me!" Chariga was overjoyed.

He wore oversized shoes, making a squelching sound, and followed the red crystal's guidance, searching for the location of the red ball.

Soon, Charika followed the guidance and found Hiroshi Kashimada, who had used the red ball to summon Satan Bizzo.

He could see that he possessed the power of the red ball.

They must have seen that red ball.

Without hesitation, Chariga stepped forward and stopped the three children, saying, "Hello, I'm Chariga, the monster buyer. Have you seen a red ball that can grant wishes?"

……

Xin Xingmian led Shen Yun and Wo Meng to his secret base—an abandoned factory.

Daigo and Asuka arrived first and chatted face to face.

"You mean, you are Ultraman who succeeded me and inherited the light?"

"Yes, but I'm still far from being as good as Daigo-senpai," Asuka said.

"And what's with your team uniform? Did the GUTS team eventually disband?"

"To be precise, it's been reorganized." Asuka told Daigo about the whereabouts of all the former GUTS seniors.

Hearing that the members of the GUTS team would be going their separate ways in the future, Daigo felt a little melancholy.

However, some of them got promoted, while others pursued their dreams and are doing very well.

This was the only consolation.

"And what about the doctor? Why did the doctor become the director?" Daigo asked curiously.

"I'm not really sure about that. All I know is that Director Shen Yun took over as the director of TPC in 2012, while Director Sawai stepped down as an advisor and went behind the scenes," Asuka said, scratching his head somewhat embarrassedly.

The reasons why Shen Yun became the director of TPC headquarters were not something he could know.

"Daigo, Asuka, let me introduce you two. This is Takayama Gamu, he's the Ultraman Gaia who just appeared." Shen Yun came up to the two of them and introduced Takayama Gamu to them.

"I am Daigo Madoka." Daigo stood up and extended his hand towards Imu.

"I am Shin Asuka." Asuka smiled and extended his hand.

"Takayama Gamu, nice to meet you!" Gamu also reached out and grasped the hands of Daigo and Asuka.

Shinseki Tsutomu watched this scene with great excitement.

This is a handshake between three Ultramen across time and space.

"Speaker, I was just about to ask, how did we come to this world? And why do the people in this world all know that I am Gaia?" I asked in my dream.

"Speaker?" Daigo and Asuka were also a little surprised to hear me address him by that title.

"You should ask Xiao Mian about that," Shen Yun said, turning the question to the person who started it all.

"Xiao Mian?" I dreamed, looking at Xinxing Mian, who had brought them to this secret base.

Xinxing excitedly answered the two questions from my dream.

"A ball that can grant wishes? Is it what brought us across dimensions to this world?" I wondered thoughtfully.

"But we're actually characters in a tokusatsu show?" Asuka scratched her head and asked.

"No, we really exist!" Imu shook her head and said seriously, "Although it sounds unbelievable, if we assume that the number of parallel universes is infinite, then every choice made by every person at every point in time, and every inspiration and idea that emerges, will give rise to a parallel universe."

"Therefore, no matter how low the probability of an event, it will inevitably happen in a diverse universe!"

"Although everything that happens and everything we experience in our own time and space has become part of tokusatsu works, the content of these tokusatsu works cannot be exactly the same as our experiences."

As she spoke, Imu turned to look at Nova Tsutomu and asked, "Tsutomu-kun, can you tell me who the chairman of Alchemy Star is?"

"It's Daniel!" Xinxing answered without hesitation.

"In my world, Daniel and Catherine are just vice-speakers; the speaker is Shen Yunsang," I dreamed.

"Huh?" Shinseki Tsutomu was quite surprised.

"I suppose the Speaker's identity is different in your worlds as well," Imu said confidently.

"Yes, in my timeline, the Doctor is a scientist at the Science Bureau, and I have received a lot of help from him," said Daiko.

"In my timeline, the director is the director of TPC," Asuka said.

Shinsei Mian was stunned when he heard what Wo Meng and the others said.

This was completely different from what he knew.

"Mian-kun, could you let me investigate that ball that can grant wishes?" I asked, looking at Shinsei Mian.

Why?

"As for why..."

"Is my dream about returning to your original world? Is that why I want to investigate this sphere?" Nova asked.

I dreamt I shook my head, leaned down to look at Shinsei Mian at eye level, and said, "This ball not only summoned me, but also summoned monsters here."

Xin Xingmian thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand. But you absolutely cannot go back without permission."

"Yes, it's a promise!" Imeng nodded.

Shinsei Tsutomu nodded, put his backpack on the ground, reached into the backpack, grabbed the red ball, and shook it vigorously.

The red ball, which should have been easy to remove, seemed to be stuck in the schoolbag, and could not be taken out without force.

"It seems like...this ball has gotten bigger."

"Yu, please help me." Shinsei Tsutomu lifted his schoolbag, turned to face Hirama Yu, and said.

After placing the things in her hand on her arm, Yu Hirama reached out and grabbed Tsutomu Shinsei's schoolbag. The two of them used all their strength to pull out the slightly enlarged red ball.

Shen Yun quickly grabbed the two children by the collar, preventing them from falling to the ground.

"The shape seems different from before," Nanase Risa said suddenly, looking at the red ball in Shinsei Tsutomu's hand, which had grown larger and had become pitted and uneven.

"What's going on?" Yu Hirama pushed up his glasses and asked, puzzled.

Shen Yun gave Nanase Risa, who had suddenly spoken, a meaningful look in his eyes.

He knew very well that Nanase Risa and the Red Sphere were one; the Red Sphere had destroyed many worlds and absorbed countless desires.

And within the red ball's desire to absorb, there is a portion of goodness.

And she represents the kind side of the red ball.

"The reason this red ball changed might be because it fulfilled your wishes," Shen Yun said.

"Huh?" Shinsei looked at Shen Yun with a puzzled expression.

"According to the law of conservation of mass, wishes cannot be fulfilled out of thin air. To fulfill a wish, an equivalent amount of energy is required, and the more difficult the wish is to fulfill, the more energy is required. And in this world, the only thing that can be called infinite is human desire." Shen Yun walked up to Xin Xingmian, reached out and picked up the red ball, and said in a calm tone.

"I can grant your wish, any wish, no matter what it is."

The moment Shen Yun picked up the red ball, he heard a sound coming from inside it.

"I heard it, the sound of this red ball," Shen Yun said softly, looking at the red ball in his hand.

Various images inexplicably surfaced in his mind.

Endless wealth, beauties to enjoy at will, power above all others, and even indestructible kidneys.

All of these things can come true as long as he makes a wish.

Shen Yun wasn't very interested in the first three wishes, but the idea of ​​an indestructible kidney did pique his interest.

No man can resist an indestructible kidney.

Nanase Risa saw the look of interest on Shen Yun's face, and a hint of sadness appeared in her eyes.

She knew that yet another world was about to be destroyed.

She is part of the red ball, and there is no way to stop her.

Although the negative emotions within the Red Ball kept affecting Shen Yun's thinking, Shen Yun remained completely calm.

vulgar!

That's so vulgar!

Is Shen Yun that kind of person? (Mainly because he's already enjoyed it all.)

This kind of wish shows a complete lack of vision.

"I want to see communism fully realized. Can you do that?" Shen Yun asked, tossing the red ball in his hand.

Do you even know what perspective means?

Pattern group +1 point.

"..."

Shen Yun's wish seemed to be to burn the red ball's cup dry, as it remained silent and did not emit any light for a long time.

"Is it frozen? Or is it running out of energy? Can't it fulfill my wish?" Shen Yun patted the red ball and asked.

Nanase Risa looked at Shen Yun with a very strange expression.

She never expected that Shen Yun would make such a wish.

At this point, shouldn't we prioritize satisfying our own desires?

Shen Yun's wish caused the red ball to fall into complete silence.

The energy required to fulfill Shen Yun's wish is too enormous; even absorbing all the desires of humanity in this world might not be enough.

However, as a wish-granting machine, it had no choice but to grant Shen Yun's wish.

Faced with this contradiction, the intelligence inside the red ball temporarily stalled.

"That really sounds like a wish a professor could make." Daigo smiled slightly.

"The wish didn't come true. It seems there's a limit to the wishes the red ball can grant," I said thoughtfully, looking at the motionless red ball.

"Speaker, let me call EX over first, and we'll analyze the red ball together," Imeng said, turning to Shen Yun.

"No problem." Shen Yun gave an OK sign.

He had a very strong interest in this wishing ball, which represents the pinnacle of technological civilization.

I nodded, turned on the communicator on my left wrist, and called out, "EX, fly to this location immediately."

"I understand, my dream," the AI ​​on FighterEX responded.

Upon receiving my dream's command, the FighterEX, which was parked at the school, also started up on its own.

"EX, take off!"

The jet nozzles on the bottom of the aircraft ejected powerful airflow, propelling FighterEX into the air from its spot.

The crowd gathered around FighterEX gasped and backed away when they saw it suddenly start up.

FighterEX took off and flew towards the factory where my dream was located.

The legendary artist "Let Go of That Gardevoir" has joined the platform with his new work, "Tokusatsu: Starting from Ultraman Tiga"!
