Video Debate: Starting with Ultraman Boss

Dark Zagi surpasses THE ONE in terms of character design, physical attributes, and fighting skills, while the remaining five aspects are evenly matched due to their respective strengths and weaknesses.

Clearly, Dark Zagi won in the eight basic categories.

[The final bug ability.]

Is THE ONE's ability to evolve considered a bug? Of course not.

Firstly, it needs to absorb living organisms to evolve, and secondly, the degree of evolution is limited.

To evolve to the same level as Dark Zagi in the battle against Zagi, it would probably have to devour all life on Earth.

Dark Zagi himself, judging from his performance, can be described as a bug.

Giga Endora beat Gauss and Justice to a pulp, and then Legend intervened.

Dark Zagi also overwhelmed Nexus's youth form, forcing Noah to intervene.

Without the intervention of a powerful figure at the pinnacle of Ultraman, Nexus's version of Dark Zagi would be considered, to some extent, unsolvable.

Ultimately, from every perspective, Dark Zagi is Nexus's absolute strongest enemy!

Chapter 341 Fastest and Strongest

[After Ultraman Nexus, the next Heisei Ultraman to revert to the Showa era Ultraman's origin from Nebula M78 is none other than Ultraman Max, known as the fastest and strongest!]

The Kingdom of Light Universe.

Future: "It's actually Senior Max. Did he fight on Earth before?"

Teppei: "No, according to records, Ultraman Ace was the last Ultraman to leave Earth. Twenty-five years later, Ultraman Mebius and Ultraman Hikari came to Earth one after another."

Future: "Did Senior Max go to Earth in a parallel universe?"

Zoffy: "It seems that this TV series is about Max going to Earth as a civilization monitor."

Hikari: "But in the battle logs that Taro retrieved from Earth, there wasn't a single battle recorded by humans. Was it an oversight?"

Taro: "Because the Earth Max went to wasn't the Earth in our universe, but another Earth. Getting to that Earth now will take some effort, so we only brought the battle records up to Eddie."

Original: "Zoffy, Max should have reported on his battle on Earth in a parallel universe. What was the last monster he encountered?"

Zoffy: "It's a giant mechanical monster known as the Million Basaku!"

[Given its title of fastest and strongest, Max's boss is naturally no ordinary opponent. It is the million-strong Basaku, an automated defense system from the Dilos civilization, that appears after its full activation!]

A colossal monster, resembling a giant war machine fortress, appeared on the screen. To demonstrate just how enormous Million Basaku was, the video thoughtfully placed a tiny Ultraman Max next to it.

Geed Zero: "This is Max's final boss. This is the first time I've ever seen one. It's such a huge mechanical monster."

Riku: "First time seeing this? No way, didn't they tell Zero about the battles of their predecessors in the Land of Light? Summarizing experiences should be very important, right?"

Zero was a little embarrassed and stammered, "Well, there should have been lectures, but at that time I was focused on pursuing great power and didn't listen carefully."

After making a mistake, he went with Master Leo to reflect on his actions.

Peja: "So Zero was a failing student."

Sergei immediately became anxious: "How can you say that? I just happened to miss a few classes. I listened very attentively to most of them."

For example, do you know how Zetton plays his four different styles of play?

Land of Light - Max: "A million Basaku, it's been a long time since that battle."

Genos: "Million Barsaku is very powerful, but with the Galactic Spark, dealing with it shouldn't be too difficult."

"Furthermore, I've heard you mention that many powerful monsters appeared on Earth in that parallel universe, right? Was Million Basaku the strongest among them?"

Max: "It's powerful, that's true, but it's not the strongest. There are several monsters, and even with the Galactic Spark, I'm not confident of defeating it, or even able to defeat it."

Upon hearing this, a younger generation of Ultraman asked curiously, "What kind of monster could even Senior Max not defeat?"

[As a self-defense system of the Dilos civilization, it was activated when the Dilos civilization was about to be destroyed by the disaster caused by human civilization's destruction on Earth. It came to the surface and began to reset the Earth's environment and destroy human civilization.]

Tiga-Horie: "It sounds like this Delos civilization is a civilization on Earth, just like humanity."

Shinjo: "It's actually not one of those mechanical monsters that go out of control after activation. That's quite rare. It seems that the Dilos civilization has some tricks up its sleeve."

Lina: "If they live on Earth alongside humans, haven't the humans in that universe discovered them? If human activities would destroy their civilization, why don't they communicate with humans?"

Zongfang: "Sometimes communication is not effective, especially between two large civilizations. Although we all live on Earth, we may end up in a life-or-death relationship."

Daigo: "Just like Lightning Man."

Land of Light - Zoffy: "According to the duties of a civilization monitor, Max should not intervene in the battle between humanity and the Delos civilization."

Seven: "The million Basaku clearly have the power to destroy human civilization, and they are already doing so."

"When human civilization was on the verge of extinction, I don't think there was anything wrong with Max's decision to fight for humanity."

[The first battle for Million Barsaku is naturally against Ultraman Max and Team DASH!]

A massive mechanical fortress roamed the land. Max, who had brought Reese back to the ground, immediately flew to the battlefield to face this enormous monster that he had to look up to.

Since it takes time to return to the surface from underground, Max turned on his lights immediately after getting into a fighting stance.

Running out of energy before the fight even begins is clearly not a good sign.

Even with only one minute left, Max continued fighting and charged towards the million-strong Basaku.

Million Basaku immediately launched a light blast attack, but none of them hit Max.

Max leaped into the air, wielding the Sword of Maxium and unleashing a clone technique, sending several head-mounted darts slashing fiercely at the massive bodies of the million Bazarku.

However, its massive size, which prevented the million Basaku from dodging, also gave it an indestructible defense.

Moreover, Max is currently low on energy, so these slashes won't hurt Million Barsaku at all.

Max, relying on his agile figure, darted back and forth around the million-strong Basaku, attacking in all directions with the Sword of Maxium, but to no avail, and even putting himself in danger.

The Million Basaku was a war machine created to defeat Max. Previously, mechanical beasts had scouted the Basaku and collected Max's combat data.

It has multiple mechanisms, each extremely dangerous.

Just as Max flew to the head of Million Basaku, a strong electric current suddenly emanated from Million Basaku's head, instantly subduing Max and binding him to his head.

DASH team's Asuka 1 and Asuka 2 quickly provided support, transforming their bodies to unleash a cutting attack in an attempt to sever the chains binding Max.

However, this was all in vain.

The chains not only bound Max, preventing him from moving, but also continuously drained his energy.

Max, who was already low on energy, now not only couldn't continue fighting, but he had also used up all the reserve energy he needed to return to the Land of Light.

Left with no other choice, Max had to separate from Kaito in order to save his life.

Max Galaxy appeared like a phoenix, surrounded by fiery golden energy.

After handing Kaito over to Max Galaxy, Max exhausted his last bit of energy.

The timer on his chest went out completely, and thus lost its light.

Battle over!

Chapter 342 The Tradition of the Land of Light, Transformed into a Bronze Statue

The Kingdom of Light Universe.

Max's defeat caused an uproar among the younger generation of Ultraman.

"The fastest and strongest senior Max was defeated so easily?"

"The civilization of Delos, the creators of those million Basaku, actually possessed such advanced technology!"

"There must be a reason why Senior Max was short of energy from the beginning, otherwise he wouldn't have been defeated so easily."

Zoffy was also very shocked, even though Max was a civilization monitor, which sounded like a civil servant.

However, like Seven, this position is only for warriors with considerable combat power.

As can be seen from the duties of this civilization monitor, they can choose whether or not to intervene in wars between civilizations based on their own will.

What do you call this? You call confidence.

What kind of person can make choices proactively? A strong person!

Only the truly strong have the right to choose whether or not to fight.

Seven: "The Dilos civilization is truly a force to be reckoned with."

Ultraman: "If a million Basaku are this difficult to deal with, how will Max prepare for the next wave of attacks from the Dilos civilization? It seems like it's already a life-or-death situation between them and humanity?"

Zoffy: "Max is a more rational and calm civilization monitor. In the event of a battle between civilizations on Earth, he will not favor either humanity or the Delos civilization."

If it were a civil war between Earth's civilizations, Max would absolutely not intervene.

Seven, who favors humanity: "Does Max's intervention mean that humanity and the Delos civilization have reached a reconciliation?!"

Jack: "If there was a reconciliation, why didn't the Dilos civilization stop its million-strong Basaku?"

Zoffy pulled up Max's report from when he returned to the Land of Light: "According to Max's report and recollections at the time, the Delos civilization did not reconcile with humanity, but rather gave humanity a chance to survive."

The Basaku system is the last means of self-defense for the Dilos civilization; once activated, even they themselves cannot stop it.

The Basaku system will eliminate any factor that could potentially threaten the survival of the Dilos civilization, whether it be humans or Max.

Ultraman: "Humanity's mistake forced the Dilos civilization to activate its self-defense system. Such a mistake should indeed be corrected by humanity."

Jack: "Then what do we do?"

Zoffy: "According to the calculations of the Dilos civilization, there is a 100% chance that a million Basaku will defeat Max. Only if humanity and Max perform a miracle beyond calculation will victory be possible."

In the first battle of the Million Basaku, Max was already in a state of energy deficiency at the very beginning of the battle because he had used up too much energy in the underground world.

Before they could even use their most powerful weapon, Max Galaxy, or fire their ultimate beam, Maxium Cannon, they were defeated by Million Basaku.

This almost overwhelming victory resulted in Million Barsaku not having many opportunities to perform.

In terms of attacks, the Million Basaku's beam attacks mainly consist of firing purple destructive beams and releasing restraining currents.

The purple destructive beam is mainly used before Max gets close. It looks similar to the regular beam, and its accuracy is the same as most mechanical monsters – it's all about hitting the edges and can't hit Max at all.

Of course, there's also the fact that Max is too small compared to the million-pound Barsaku.

The restraining current is mainly used in close combat. When Max swung the Sword of Maxhium and slashed around the body of Million Basaku, it instantly subdued Max and bound his head.
