Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 729 Lend Me Your Power

"Lipiasan, lend me your power..."

Kai almost instinctively blurted out a greeting, but seeing Zero and Jugglus's reactions, he felt a little awkward and touched his nose, unsure how to respond.

Although he's supposed to be Ultraman from the future, his strength is truly incredible.

Is he considered a junior or a senior?

Xia Chuan nodded without saying much. He didn't really care about borrowing power; in fact, he had already lent out power countless times.

The Knight System operates every moment, and even now, while soaking in the bath, subtle and persistent power flows into his body, steadily increasing his level.

"How is it? Can we go back now?" Natsukawa sensed the Ultra power reappearing within Kai.

"It's possible, but there's no point in going back now," Hong Kai sighed and shook his head. "I've been wandering around various universes anyway, so it's all the same wherever I go. Besides... I've heard about Gilbaris. I came to this universe in the first place because of Galactron that guy sent."

"Hey, forget about Kai. He can't teach you anything, he just borrows your power," Jugglus Juggler felt ignored. "Come with me, be my apprentice, and I can teach you the Serpent Heart Style swordsmanship. Ultraman can't go far relying on brute force alone."

This sounds familiar.

Xia Chuan smiled helplessly.

He could clearly perceive Jugglus's thoughts.

Having evolved from a knight, this was the first time he had ever been looked down upon like this.

Even after transforming, he still has a long way to go, but his human form has almost reached its peak.

However, the Serpent Heart Style swordsmanship...

Judging by the timeline, Jugglus Juggler is probably several thousand years old. He would be quite interested in the swordsmanship he has honed over such a long period of time, if it were just something to learn.

After obtaining the Gaia and Agul cards, he also mastered the lightsaber skill, but he rarely used it in battle, preferring the Eight-Point Light Wheel over and over again.

Expanding one's combat skills is also a good idea.

"Sparring is fine, but apprentices are out of the question."

"Don't you want to reconsider?" Jugglus was reluctant to give up.

He suddenly had the idea of ​​taking on apprentices because Lipia, as a newcomer, might be able to defeat Orb.

Even if I can't beat Hong Kai myself, it's not bad if my apprentice can.

"By the way, Lipia," Zero shifted his position in the bath, "you came to see us not just for a simple meeting, right?"

"It's just a casual meeting."

Xia Chuan's eyes were calm.

Both of his initial goals for coming to the Geed universe were perfectly achieved: the Lucifer Card was repaired and strengthened, and the Ultimate Bracelet was fully activated.

However, while the old problems were solved, many new ones also arose.

Especially after coming into contact with the King of Ultra.

He didn't quite understand the current state of the new generation dungeon group, so he wanted to meet Zero, who spanned the new generation, and Gai, the experienced new generation Ultra Warrior.

In particular, Gai's existence is related to the Ultraman R/B world that follows Ultraman Geed.

R/B is the fusion of two brother Ultra Warriors. Like Orb, he obtained his power from the pinnacle of Planet O-50 Warriors. His level is not very high, but he has a super monster known as the Cosmic White Blood Cell inside him.

Furthermore, it is linked to another traitor from the Land of Light—Tregear, the new generation of mastermind behind Belial.

If Belial was possessed, then Tregear actively sealed the dark power within his body, evolving from a scientist into an ultimate life form.

Within it lies the next generation's ultimate boss, the Chaos Demon God Grimd, who existed before the birth of the universe and possesses chaotic power that transcends both light and darkness...

That's the gist of it. He was known as the strongest monster of the new generation... Although the strongest has come one generation after another, Grimdo was indeed exceptionally powerful. In the end, he was defeated by Ultraman Reiga, who was formed by the fusion of all the new generation Ultra Warriors.

He is currently lacking in resources, and both the new generation of Ultraman and these increasingly powerful monsters are the resources for his evolution.

With the ultimate bracelet, he no longer relies heavily on anchor points, but dungeon coordinates are still a problem.

It would be best to learn more about the dungeon universe through people like Hong Kai.

"Really?" Zero stared at Natsukawa for a while, and after confirming that he wasn't lying, he was quite speechless.

He thought they were discussing how to deal with Gilbaris.

Even when Belial was still plotting for the power of the King of Ultra, there were already various signs that Gilbaris had his eye on Earth.

"You should know, right?" Zero asked seriously, "Gilbaris was originally going to come to Earth, not to mention now that you've broken that Red Steel seal."

Jugglus frowned. "Gilbaris... is indeed a troublesome fellow. He has almost no weaknesses and many henchmen."

"I have confidence in Geed," was all Natsukawa could say.

……

Outside the bathhouse, Asakura Riku, who was about to enter the changing room, stopped in his tracks, his happy smile froze, and he retreated again with a complicated expression.

"Is Lipia having too much faith in me?"

As the hero who saved the world, he knew what was going on.

If it weren't for Xia Chuan's assistance, he would have had no chance of defeating Belial.

That person is right. He is not a true Ultra Warrior after all. He was only able to grow to giant size and transform because he has Belial's genes and the Geed Riser.

The initial excitement has faded, and now I'm filled with pressure.

"Airu-nee," Asakura Riku nervously turned to Higa Airu, "Is Gilbaris really stronger than Belial the Evil?"

Higa Airu glanced quietly at the red steel in Asakura Riku's hand: "Whether it's Belial's Giga Battle Device or this red steel in your hand, they were both developed specifically to deal with Gilbaris, but you haven't found the real way to use the red steel yet."

"The real method?"

"Red Steel, also known as the Ultimate Fighting Enhancer, can amplify the spiritual energy of justice, allowing the user to achieve ultimate sublimation. It is an invincible item."

Higa Airu was slightly disappointed.

"Unlike the Giga Combat Device, the Red Steel is countless times more difficult to use, but of course it is also much more powerful. I originally thought you could sublimate it... but it turns out you just use it as a weapon."

"What is the real method?" Asakura Riku asked anxiously, clutching Akagan.

He hadn't thought too much about it at first, assuming that the Red Steel and the Giga Battle Device were similar.

"That depends on you," Higa Airu shook her head silently. "Only the chosen ones can use the Ultimate Fighting Riser."

Asakura Riku opened his mouth in disbelief.

The chosen one... what kind of setting is this?

"Is there really no one who can use it?"

"In the end, no one was able to unleash the true power of the Red Steel," Higa Airu said with a bitter smile, glancing at the bathhouse out of the corner of her eye. "Perhaps no one can do it at all."

"But," Asakura Riku didn't quite understand, "wasn't this meant to deal with Gilbaris? Why is it made so complicated?"

"There's no other way. Gilbaris's technology far surpasses that of Kucia, so how can we deal with him so easily? If we can't even meet the conditions for using Crimson Steel, we simply can't defeat Gilbaris."

"Can I try?" Toba Raiyo asked tentatively in a low voice.

"You're not good enough," Higa Airu said without hesitation, looking at the girl who was more than a head shorter than her. "The power of Red Steel lies in amplification and sublimation. What would you use it for?"
