Ultraman's opening scene: lifting up Kuroshio Island

"I think I just saw something fall down."

"Alright, let's see what it is!"

Tetsuo Shinjo shouted, then pressed a button on the control panel in front of him to turn on the searchlight on the Dolphin.

The dim light emanated from the seabed; though not very bright, it was enough to make out some things.

The searchlight shone on the seabed, and Tetsuo Shinjo looked up.

But the next moment, he suddenly froze, his eyes widening:

"Tiga?"

Masami Horii, who was standing next to him, cursed:

"What kind of look is that? That one over there isn't Tiga, the one next to him is..."

"Huh? Ultraman Tiga?"

Minghui's gaze pierced through the Dolphin's armor and reached the interior of the submarine. Seeing the two men's reactions, he couldn't help but smile slightly.

Then, his gaze shifted upwards, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

Minghui released his senses, and a moment later, a happy smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Relax, this is nothing.

Just you wait and see...

There will be three more like this in a little while!

............

"Dagu!"

On the Atdis, which was still flying at high speed in the air, Nanase Rena's mournful cries echoed throughout the cockpit.

Her gaze trembled violently as she stared intently at the screen not far away, not blinking an eye.

Under her horrified gaze, Tiga, now a stone statue, slowly tilted backward and crashed heavily into the sea.

At that moment, Nanase Rena felt a sharp pain in her heart, a pain so intense that she could hardly breathe.

Her eyes searched the screen, but she couldn't see that figure rise from the sea again.

"He won't lose, Tiga won't lose!"

Even the usually composed Megumi Kijima panicked at this moment, and her voice trembled for the first time.

"So, Daigo was..."

Zongfang Chengyi and the others looked somewhat dazed.

Only then did they understand why Ultraman Tiga had been protecting humanity since the moment he appeared, and why he had been helping them endlessly.

Also, why did Daigo miraculously survive so many plane crashes?

This kid...

Ha, if Shinjo and Horii were here, they would be very surprised, Daigo, you've kept this from us for so long!

Zongfang Chengyi clenched his fists and closed his eyes in pain.

"Ultraman is actually a human in disguise..."

Director Ji Gang, who was sitting in his seat, slowly stood up, his eyes filled with disbelief, and murmured to himself.

Then, as if he had thought of something, he turned his head to look at Director Sawai beside him.

At this moment, Director Sawai had not yet recovered from his daze and was still staring at the screen, but his eyes were unfocused.

Upon seeing this, Director Ji Gang paused slightly and sighed softly.

He knew that Director Sawai's high regard for the young man was not because of his identity as Ultraman Tiga, but simply because of his personal admiration.

Director Ji Gang walked over to Director Ze Jing, patted the latter on the shoulder, and sighed softly:

"That's a...good kid!"

Director Sawai lowered his gaze and nodded silently.

"Everyone! Now is not the time to be discouraged!"

At this moment, Nozue Hachisuke stood up and said seriously:

"If Tiga could recover from his stone statue state before, he can definitely recover a second time!"

"We haven't lost yet, and we'll definitely find Daigo!"

"Ye Rui is right."

Megumi regained her composure, glanced around, her gaze lingering on Nanase Rena for a moment before she spoke:

"No matter the cost, we must bring Daigo back!"

"But how exactly can we bring Ultraman Tiga back to life?"

Zongfang Chengyi frowned and spoke.

"Actually, folks, I have an idea that might work!"

Upon hearing his words, Nozue Hachimitsu immediately spoke up, his expression serious.

"Is it really possible? What do I need to do?"

Nanase Rena turned around abruptly and called out anxiously.

There were still traces of tears on her cheeks.

Everyone else looked over as well, their eyes fixed intently.

Feeling nervous under the watchful eyes of so many people, Noriyuki Hachimitsu swallowed hard before saying:

"I think that Tiga turned into a stone statue because of Gatanothor's attack, and also because his energy was exhausted."

As he spoke, he brought up an image that showed the rapidly flashing colored timer on Ultraman Tiga's chest.

He pointed upwards and continued:

"Therefore, I think we should supply him with enough energy so that Tiga can be revived."

"Perfect timing! We have the Max System developed by Dr. Yamata no Yaiba. We can use this to shine light energy onto Tiga's statue; it might come in handy."

Professor Yao was also in the command room. He hadn't spoken until now, but upon hearing this, he walked over and hesitated before saying:

"The Max system can indeed do that, but it's just physical light particles. I don't think it's very reliable to just irradiate it."

If it fails, I worry that the light energy might backfire and damage Ultraman's statue.

"this......"

Nozue Hachisuke thought about it carefully and also looked troubled.

He felt that what Dr. Yao said might be true.

"Unfortunately, the Life Science Research Center has been studying the mysteries of the stone statue, but so far they haven't produced any results. Otherwise, it might have been helpful to us now."

Director Sawai said with some regret.

"So... what does everyone think of this plan?"

Nozue Hachimitsu glanced at the crowd and asked hesitantly.

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, hesitant to make a decision.

Nanase Rena's face darkened immediately, her expression filled with confusion.

She was afraid that if Dr. Yamata's prediction was true, not only would he fail to revive Tiga, but he would also destroy the statue, and then Daigo...

The atmosphere inside the driver's cab suddenly became heavy.

In a corner of the driver's cab, Camilla and the other two watched this scene quietly, somewhat silent.

A moment later, Hitler, arms crossed, broke the silence first, pursing his lips and saying:

"Tch, how touching. Back then, we also had human worshippers. If they had been able to find a way to save us, perhaps we wouldn't have been sealed away for 30 million years."

As he spoke, he glanced at the screen, where only Gatanothor's figure was visible, chirping incessantly as thick black mist spread outwards.

Hitler's gaze was devoid of any emotion. He gave a low 'humph' and said:

"No miracle happened, that kid is finished."

"Camilla, Darram, it's time for us to leave this planet."

No one responded to him.

Hitler frowned slightly and looked at Darram beside him, only to see the latter staring intently at the figure on the screen with an unfriendly gaze.

He turned to look at Camilla, then suddenly raised an eyebrow and said sharply:

"Camilla, what are you doing!"

Camilla, who had been silent all along, suddenly took a step and walked towards the group of people who were struggling with their thoughts in the driver's seat.

Upon hearing this, she stopped in her tracks and turned to look at them.

Camilla smiled faintly and said:

"I have something to do, would you two like to come together?"

If you are unwilling, I will not force you. You can leave here and go into space; you are free.

"you......"

Hitler's expression changed slightly upon hearing this; he guessed what Camilla was planning to do.

But before he could answer, Dharam, who was standing next to him, spoke first:

"Camilla, thirty million years ago, we were first led by Tiga, and then by you. Now, I don't want to find a third leader."

So, I'll go with you!

As he spoke, he strode over to Camilla, then turned to look at Hitler and waved his finger defiantly.

"asshole......"

Hitler gritted his teeth, staring at his two companions whom he had known for countless years. After a moment of struggle, he suddenly roared in despair:
