Special Effects: An Initial Overview of Father of Ultra

Belial was deeply shocked by the unprecedented terrifying power of the Alien Empera, while Ken, standing beside him, displayed a strong sense of responsibility and commitment as a Warrior of Light.

“If we cannot defeat him now, the entire universe will be in danger,” Ken said in a deep voice to Belial beside him.

However, the two were already being crushed and suppressed by Alien Empera, and even if they risked their lives, they could not shake the Dark Emperor in the slightest.

In the critical moment, Mary, who had just been rescued by the two, handed the family's heirloom sword, the Ultimate Blade, to Father of Ultra.

The moment Father of Ultra grasped the Holy Sword, he resonated strongly with the Ultimate Blade, his body bursting with dazzling golden light, his energy continuously rising, and the horns on his head slowly growing larger.

With the blessing of the Holy Sword and the full release of his true power, Father of Ultra's strength surged, finally enabling him to fight Emperor Alien to a standstill.

The two engaged in a fateful battle, giving their all. In the end, Father of Ultra prevailed, leaving Emperor Alien with a permanent, unhealable scar. Emperor Alien, defeated, vanished in a black beam of light, while Father of Ultra was also severely wounded, clutching his abdomen. The Dark Emperor's attack had also left him with a lifelong, incurable old wound.

Several days later, based on his outstanding achievements in this battle, Father of Ultra was officially appointed as the first captain of the Space Garrison.

Thus, a legendary scene belonging to the Land of Light was born.

The scene changes again: Mary is standing aside chatting and laughing with Belial. When Ken arrives, Mary immediately turns aside, leaving Belial behind, and turns to meet Ken's eyes. The two smile at each other and talk intimately, completely ignoring Belial beside them.

Belial stood silently, watching the two, a bitter feeling welling up inside him. He uttered a silent sigh: "Should I leave?"

……

Ultraman Tiga, inside the GUTS base.

Xincheng, known as the "plane crash duo," couldn't help but burst into laughter as he gazed at the subtly atmospheric scene in the sky.

Daigo was filled with mixed emotions: So Ultraman also has emotions and desires. Just like humans, Ultraman can feel sadness, regret, and unfulfilled desires. He also experiences birth, aging, sickness, and death. It turns out I've never been an outcast.

As a member of the GUTS team, it is my duty to protect the peace of the Earth; as Ultraman Tiga, it is my innate mission to face darkness and fight against evil.

[The scene shifts, and several days later, Belial, filled with resentment and bitterness, initiates a fight with Father of Ultra in the Ultra Arena. Father of Ultra, who had no intention of fighting and tried to stop him, unintentionally throws a punch that sends Belial flying.]

Father of Ultra rushed forward to help him up, but Belial suddenly shoved him away.

Belial, who had always been stronger than Ken, was now easily defeated by him. The huge disparity caused his inner resentment to erupt completely. Extreme jealousy and a crazy thirst for power led him to make a decision to betray the original intentions of the Land of Light and the faith of his own people.

He ventured alone to the most central and sacred forbidden area of ​​the Land of Light—the Plasma Spark Tower—intending to touch the Plasma Spark and plunder its powerful primal energy to enhance his own strength. However, the power of the Plasma Spark was too vast and violent; instead of becoming stronger as he wished, he was severely burned by its intense light.

Belial's plan failed, and he dared not linger, hastily fleeing the Plasma Spark Tower. Soon, Father of Ultra, having heard the news, arrived with his trusted guards and, according to the laws of the Land of Light, banished Belial, who had violated the taboo and attempted to steal the Spark, to the cold, desolate ends of the universe.

Chapter 3 The End of the Universe

Planet K76

"Exiled to the ends of the universe? Just for touching a plasma spark, I have to suffer such a severe punishment? Then why was my punishment of being sent here for training after Seven and the others stopped me?" Zero muttered to himself.

"Zero, what are you standing there for? Charge towards the jeep!"

Zero was taken aback, and upon seeing this, he quickly ran forward.

"Don't run! Charge at the jeep!"

Nobody knows where Leo got a Jeep from. (Hikkari: Don't ask me, I don't know either.)

……

"Exiled to the ends of the universe? That's a cruel outcome indeed. They were once heroes of the Land of Light, yet they ended up like this. It's truly heartbreaking," Wang Xiaoming said, shaking his head.

……

"Ken! It's all your fault! You're the one who ruined everything! Captain, leader of the Land of Light, you should all be mine, all of you should be mine!"

Belial, witnessing his impending exile, roared furiously in despair.

……

Father of Ultra was filled with bewilderment: how could he have changed so drastically in such a short time, right outside his door, and even returned to the Land of Light to wreak havoc? If it weren't for the King's timely intervention, imprisoning him in the cosmic prison...

The scene suddenly shifted—

[Belial was banished to the edge of the universe, where he could see the Land of Light just by looking up; the distance was unbelievably close.]

The scene shifts to the Ultra Brothers, who are muttering about their longing for the Land of Light, but can only see a tiny star twinkling in the sky.

In contrast, Belial, exiled to the ends of the universe, could see a huge, dazzling green planet at a glance.

All living beings in the universe were filled with doubt: "Isn't it said to be the end of the universe? Why can we see it so clearly?"

Even Oma Zi-O was slightly surprised: "This so-called end of the universe is the gate of the Land of Light?"

The subtitles continued to play on the screen:

[Fun fact: The Land of Light is located at the edge of the universe, and the place where Belial was exiled is also called the Edge of the Universe.]

"Huh? This...this is some kind of word game? Isn't this right at my doorstep?"

"For the Ultra race, who possess superpowers, this distance would probably not even take a day."

"It seems the original plan was just to let him reflect for a few days, and then take him back after a while!"

Countless beings in the universe expressed the same sentiment.

Father of Ultra, reflecting on the past, couldn't help but feel ashamed: "He was so close, if only he had been willing to come back, I wouldn't have been so harsh. Besides, only the patrol team I led knew the truth about touching the Spark Tower back then."

Most importantly: When Belial escaped the Plasma Spark Tower, he attacked Zoffy in public, resisted arrest, and attacked the guards, all of which was witnessed by countless people.

Father of Ultra, out of consideration for his reputation and the rules, could not easily pardon him, so he had no choice but to exile him to reflect on his actions. He planned to find an opportunity to make him meritorious in the future and then recall him to continue serving as the second-in-command of the Land of Light.

But Father of Ultra never expected that an alien trafficker would appear at his doorstep and kidnap his best friend.

Suddenly, a blue-themed alien—a Reiblood alien—appeared on the screen.

"I am Reiblood, the supreme god who rules over the entire universe! From this day forward, I bestow upon you boundless power!"

Despite his verbal and physical resistance, Belial was unable to stop Reiblood from entering him.

Reiblood seized the opportunity and forcibly possessed Belial, instantly transforming the original red and silver Ultraman body into a terrifying black and red form.

The style of the sky curtain changes again:

[Reiblood is arguably the most pathetic ultimate life form. While the world often sees powerful beings possessing others, Reiblood's attempt to forcibly possess Belial not only failed to control him, but instead amplified Belial's desires and hatred, ultimately leading to his being devoured by Belial's true nature and becoming the one being suppressed – a truly absurd situation.]

"So this is the truth behind Belial's complete corruption? Who exactly is Reiblood? What does 'ultimate life form' mean? Is there any possibility that Belial can return to his original form?" Father of Ultra pondered to himself.

"So he didn't completely succumb to depravity? Reiblood's power is truly terrifying, capable of turning a once reliable vice-captain into the all-destroying demon he is today?" Zoffy gazed at his former superior's past, filled with melancholy.

……

"So it seems that Belial's fall was not caused by Father of Ultra settling personal scores. Father of Ultra has already done everything he could; it was Belial's own jealousy that led him, coupled with the malicious corruption of the Reiblood aliens, that caused him to gradually fall into darkness." Musashi, the "benevolent warrior," gazed at the sky and sighed softly.

On his throne, Oma Zi-O stood calmly, idly offering his comments:

"Father of Ultra is a qualified cosmic leader, but not a qualified close friend. You have never truly entered the heart of your friend, and you cannot understand the sense of loss and rupture that arose in the hearts of your former companions as you became stronger. You cannot see his hidden resentment and obsession, nor can you see his desire to risk everything and touch taboos. Perhaps you, with your kind nature, are simply incapable of empathizing with obsessive people."

Belial, obsessed with power his entire life, was ultimately consumed by it. The moment the plasma spark burned him, it was already clear that the source of light never approved of his eager, opportunistic ambitions. Seeing his former comrades achieve great success and far surpass his own power, his unwavering desire to remain subservient completely overwhelmed his reason, transforming him from a passionate hero protecting the Land of Light into a monstrous demon destroying it. In the end, he achieved his desired power, but his original aspirations were completely lost.

After a pause, Oma Zi-O added casually:

"It's likely that deep down, he longed to return to his dear friend's side."

……

"So this is the whole process of Belial's corruption... Back then, he also actively approached and touched the Spark Tower."

Zero lowered his eyes and pondered silently:

"But back then, I clearly felt the mysterious call of the plasma spark, which led me to walk there involuntarily."

When I was stripped of my Ultra Warrior status, I was filled with resentment. I believed I was no less capable than anyone else. I just wanted to become stronger quickly so that I could better protect the Land of Light.

The moment Seven stopped me, I already knew I had made a mistake, but my inherent pride prevented me from bowing my head and admitting it.

Fortunately, I was stopped in time.

If I had persisted in my own way back then and ended up like Belial, if the price of becoming stronger was to destroy the Land of Light that I wanted to protect with my own hands, then I would rather never have this power in this lifetime.

Perhaps it is a blessing to be able to quietly atone for one's sins on planet K76 now.

At this moment, Zero is unaware that in the near future, two sinners who have both touched the taboo of plasma sparks will eventually overcome the barriers of fate and usher in a destiny-bound final showdown.

Chapter 4: The Ultra Brothers Annihilated

After the footage of Father of Ultra and Belial ended, the broadcast continued:

The strength of Father of Ultra is unknown. Apart from his outstanding performance during the Great Ultra War, his subsequent record is not satisfactory.

It can both cross galaxies to "bring warmth" to the weak Hipporito aliens and "find faults" with Belial, who absorbed the Empera aliens and Dark Lugiel.

I wonder if Father Ultra was possessed by some "Emperor" who didn't like positioning or wearing equipment, because after the Land of Light entered a period of stability, he became less interested in carrying equipment.

Entering the Showa Era:

Before his energy was depleted and he was about to be completely petrified, Ace used his last bit of strength to send a distress signal to the Land of Light using his Ultra Sign. Upon receiving the signal, the four Ultra Brothers—Zoffy, Ultraman, Seven, and Jack—rushed across the stars to Earth without stopping.

However, when they landed on the battlefield, what they saw was Ace, who had become a cold bronze statue.

The four older brothers were heartbroken as they watched their younger brother suffer such a terrible fate. Seven couldn't help but step forward and stroke Ace's bronze statue. The brothers all lowered their heads in sorrow (I wonder if Ultraman has tears).

Just as the Ultra Brothers were immersed in grief and anger and had not yet fully reacted, the Hipporito alien let out a terrifying laugh and launched a surprise attack.

It used the same trick again, conjuring up a specially made transparent capsule trap out of thin air. Ultraman and Zoffy couldn't dodge in time and were instantly trapped inside the capsule; Jack tried to use the power of the Ultra Bracelet to forcibly break the capsule and rescue his brother, but ended up getting trapped by the falling capsule himself.

At this moment, only Ultraman Seven remained outside the capsule. He angrily engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Hipporito alien. After several rounds of fighting, Seven gradually became exhausted and was eventually ambushed by the Hipporito alien's flames and beams, and was also trapped inside the capsule.

With all five Ultra Brothers trapped, a special Hipporito tar began to leak from the capsule. This substance rapidly stripped the Ultra Warriors of their energy, solidifying them alive. In a very short time, Zoffy, Ultraman, Seven, and Jack also turned into immobile bronze statues. The Hipporito aliens, looking at their "spoils of war," vanished triumphantly, leaving behind only five bronze statues exuding an aura of despair under the setting sun.

No one expected that the five Ultramen we had placed such high hopes on would be defeated by Hipporito and turned into bronze statues!

……

The "Bronze Statue Five," far away in the Land of Light, looked at their embarrassing past and unanimously covered their eyes with Ultraman's palms, finding it unbearable to watch.

Aside from Ace, who could be considered inexperienced and understandably defeated without knowing anything about the Hipporito aliens, the other four were clearly experienced Ultra Warriors, yet they went to provide support only to be wiped out.

Happiness Burger Shop (later known as the ERP Research Lab)

The armored team huddled together, discussing amongst themselves: "How could this be? This monster is so powerful that it has wiped out five Ultra Warriors in a row? The Ultra Warriors have been defeated, how can humans possibly resolve this crisis?"
