Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga

Chapter Five: The Power and Evil of Barking; Today's Expenses Are on Young Master Shen

Sky Island, by the lake.

The barking shark floated quietly on the lake surface, allowing Shen Yun to scan it with his instruments.

Looking at the giant beast before him, Shen Yun couldn't help but reach out and touch the Barking Shark's skin, which shimmered with a metallic sheen in the sunlight.

It feels cool to the touch, just like real metal.

"Wow, it really is metal!" Shen Yun exclaimed.

It's hard to imagine that such a mechanical, metallic life form could have been born naturally on Earth.

After a brief moment of amazement, Shen Yun completed his scan of the barking shark.

A 3D model of the barracuda also appeared on the computer, and even its internal structure was scanned.

In addition, through calculations, data on various aspects of the barking shark were also presented on one side of the 3D model.

"The Barking Shark is 32 meters long, 17 meters high, and weighs approximately 790 tons. Its power output is unknown, but it should be quite high," Shen Yun muttered to himself, stroking his chin as he looked at the data on the computer screen.

He remembered that Gao-O's output was around 2000 million horsepower, and if the Gaorangers rode Gao-O into battle, the output would increase to 4000 million horsepower...

The total weight of the Gargoyle is only 5000 tons.

This is practically filling in the data with their feet.

Keep in mind that Goblin, the highest-ranking character in Ultraman Tiga, only has eight million horsepower—a difference of five times.

"If we want to surpass the Evil Barking Hunter in combat power, then Radish's output needs to reach at least 6000 million horsepower, which is really a headache." Shen Yun scratched his head. If he couldn't find a way to increase Radish's output and strength to the same level as Power Beast, even if he replicated it exactly, it probably wouldn't last more than a few hits.

In particular, the Baro Hunter has a miraculous Blue Moon form, which can generate a terrifying 555 million horsepower. Looking at the entire team, the Baro Hunter in Blue Moon form can be ranked among the top five.

"What's this?" Tidom came up behind Shen Yun, bent down slightly to look at the 3D model of the Barking Shark on the computer screen, and asked curiously.

"Oh, this is a 3D model of the Barking Shark and data from various aspects. With this data, I might be able to create an artificial version of the Power Beast," Shen Yun explained casually.

"Sigh, I just can't do anything with you." Tidom sighed cutely, sat down next to Shen Yun, and said, "Power Beasts have a sacred power called the Power of Bark. Even if you create an identical Power Beast using all this messy data, without the blessing of the Power of Bark, no matter how similar the appearance and structure are, it's just a piece of scrap metal."

"Barking Power?" Shen Yun asked curiously.

"Yes, Powermon are spirits born from nature, and the power of Bark is the power of nature, the power of life," Tidom explained to Shen Yun, pointing to his slender, delicate fingers.

"I see."

"So you'd better give up this disrespectful idea as soon as possible," Tidom said with a grin, patting Shen Yun on the shoulder.

"Alright. But the research must continue." Shen Yun smiled as he looked at the smug-faced shrine maiden.

How could he possibly give up so easily?

only……

Shen Yun stared at the giant beast before him, lost in thought.

This so-called Barking Power is not something that can be easily obtained.

Unless, of course, he can get the God of Fangs to intervene.

Although Gaogo's overall performance is weak, it can revive Mightymon and humans, so it can probably also grant mechanical life.

However, the Barking God doesn't appear until almost the later part of the story, and the Wolf Demon and the Evil Barking Hunter have already been redeemed...

Wait a minute, wolf demons, evil barking hunters...

"Evil energy!" A thought flashed through Shen Yun's mind.

Yes, Powermon is the manifestation of Gargo, a life energy source inherent in Earth itself.

Naoruk is the embodiment of evil energy floating in the world, and also possesses incredible power.

The powerful beasts possess the power of barking as their energy source, and the corresponding evil energy can naturally also serve as the energy source for the carrot.

Before being cleansed of his evil ways, the wolf demon possessed the power of a thousand years of evil energy, and could single-handedly defeat all the Gaolangers.

The evil Gargoyle Hunter, corrupted by millennia of evil energy, also has an overwhelming advantage over Gargoyle King and Gargoyle Power King.

A thousand years ago, it was even able to kill the high-ranking Duke Hyakkimaru with a single shot, which is enough to show how powerful the evil aura was.

He couldn't get his hands on this so-called Barking Power.

With the power of evil energy, surely he can get his hands on it?

At this point in time, there is still a year and a half before the Beast Squad storyline officially begins, which is enough time for him to conduct his research.

If we can find a way to make good use of the evil energy and use it as the radish's energy source, its power might even reach the level of the Evil Fang Hunter.

"A thousand-year-old evil aura..."

Shen Yun pondered for a moment. As the most powerful source of evil energy in the entire series, he couldn't possibly give up on the millennium-old evil energy.

After gathering his thoughts, Shen Yun put away the instruments on the ground, turned to look at Tidom sitting beside him, and smiled, "Let's go back."

"Huh? Is that all?" Tidom asked in surprise.

"After all, there's plenty of time in the future, and we can't be short of time." Shen Yun smiled, looking at Tidom who was getting up from the grass, and said, "Besides, I wouldn't want the priestess to waste her time here with me."

"No, even if I don't stay with you, I don't have anything else to do," Tidom quickly waved his hand and replied.

"I see." Shen Yun nodded slightly, then looked at Tidom and smiled, "Speaking of which, Tidom probably hasn't seen what this era is really like yet, right? Since it's still early, how about I take you out for a stroll?"

"Okay, okay!" Tidom's beautiful eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly, happy.

"Let's go." Shen Yun smiled, then shouldered the portable equipment and returned to Turtle Rock with Tidom. They then boarded Sky Island and landed in a desolate mountain outside Tokyo.

"Alright. It's time to clean it up." Tidom put his hands on his hips, looked at the dust rising inside Turtle Rock, nodded, and said.

"Let's set off now. I'll go buy you two modern outfits first. What do you think, Miss Shrine Maiden? By the way, Shrine Maidens shouldn't have any taboos about clothes, right?" Shen Yun looked at Tidom, who was dressed in a white shrine maiden outfit, and asked.

Although the shrine maiden outfit looked very innocent and lovely, he still wanted to see what Tidom would look like in modern clothes.

Plans are in place!

"Clothes? I don't have any. However, when communicating with the Power Beasts, you must wear a priestess outfit," Tidom explained, shaking his head.

"That's good. Today's expenses will be on Mr. Shen!"

Okay, let's change Option 1 from artificial to the powerful beast that Shen Yun found. It can combine with GaoKing and Gao Hunter, or it can be controlled by Shen Yun alone.

As for the man-made radish, it is still made according to the Great Beast God, using evil energy as its power source. What do you think?
