Ultraman's opening scene: lifting up Kuroshio Island

Niki didn't speak, but a smile appeared on her lips.

"Your Majesty, the cosmic demon has now appeared. It is time for the God of War to defeat it!"

At this moment, Laiying spoke again, looking intently at Queen Amaterasu.

However, Queen Amaterasu's expression was somewhat unnatural. She looked at the murals on the wall, her gaze trembling slightly.

After a moment, her gaze lowered, and she said with some resistance:

"Are we... going to start a war?"

Seeing this, Niki, who was watching from the side, frowned and her expression became slightly serious.

The reaction from the person who came to greet him was even stronger. He took a step forward, his voice filled with suppressed anger:

"Your Majesty, this is a war of survival, we have no choice but to fight! Do you want to watch the Tree of Life and our planet be destroyed?"

"No, of course I can't let that happen!"

Queen Amaterasu shook her head, and said seriously:

"Defending our country and our people has always been something I swore to do!"

"Then what are you waiting for? Become a war god and protect your people!"

Lai Ying's voice rose a little as she spoke excitedly.

"Welcome the General! Everything depends on Her Majesty the Queen's own wishes!"

Senro stepped forward, separating the person who was greeting him, and said:

"Furthermore, since Caiqi can command Baalzeb, he must know of the existence of the God of War. Yet, he still dares to provoke the Queen. He must be confident in defeating the God of War. It would be inappropriate for Her Majesty to rashly become the God of War!"

Lai Ying frowned. He didn't insist further, but instead said:

"Then let our defense forces go over there. We will definitely be able to take care of Cai Qi. He's just a scientist, and we can easily take him down."

"Let's welcome the general."

At this moment, Queen Amaterasu spoke, saying:

"I don't intend to become a war god, and I also hate war. I don't want to see situations where parents die and children are left alone in the world again."

"I intend to... resolve this peacefully!"

"A peaceful method?"

He frowned as he came to greet him.

"Captain Senro, I need to trouble you to go to the planet Zhiyin."

Queen Amaterasu turned to look at Shinra and pleaded:

"Take my sincerity and go to negotiate with Caiqi!"

"negotiation?"

Lai Ying's eyes widened, and her expression froze.

At that moment, he even doubted whether Queen Amaterasu was joking, but looking at her expression, she seemed very serious.

"Humph!"

A moment later, he snorted and turned to leave.

Queen Amaterasu ignored him and simply instructed Shinra on the wording for the negotiations.

Meanwhile, looking at Minghui and the other two, Niki's furrowed brows hadn't relaxed since the beginning.

She finally understood why Minghui had told her not to have too high expectations of this queen.

Is this...is this really a decision a queen should make?

Chapter 386 It's incurable, there's no hope, just wait to die!

Not long after the conversation in the palace ended, a fighter jet took off and flew towards the outer reaches of the planet.

"Tsk, not bad fighter jet."

On a section of the Tree of Life, Minghui sat with Niki. He withdrew his gaze from the departing fighter jet, pursed his lips, and muttered.

Then, he turned to look at Niki and suddenly smiled:

"Stop frowning, or you'll get wrinkles."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and placed it over Niki's brow, gently smoothing it out.

Leaning against the tree trunk, Niki let Minghui do as he pleased. She couldn't help but smile, but quickly sighed softly.

"Ah~"

Minghui knew why Niki sighed; he empathized with her. However, he had already finished sighing a long time ago, so he could now take it in stride.

So he smiled and asked Niki:

"So, what's your opinion, from the perspective of a queen?"

Hearing his words, Niki thought for a moment, and then spoke:

"I can sense that Amaterasu... no, that little girl is a good person, but..."

She is not a qualified queen!

"Her thinking is too naive. There is nothing wrong with pursuing peace, but to hold onto this idea in the face of a planet's survival crisis will only drag her country into the abyss."

However, I can roughly guess why she would do that.

At this moment, Nikki thought of the expression on Queen Amaterasu's face when she said, "I hate war, and I don't want to see that situation where both parents die, leaving only children in the world." She paused slightly, and her tone softened.

"I think her parents died when she was very young?"

That must have caused her a great deal of psychological trauma, which is why she hates war so much.

Moreover, due to the death of her parents, she likely never received any instruction on how to be a queen.

The person sitting in that seat was simply a child striving to bring peace to the country according to their own understanding.

Niki lowered her eyes, her expression seemingly filled with emotion.

She strongly disagreed with Queen Amaterasu's approach, but she didn't want to ask too much of a child.

However, seeing a queen treated like this made her feel terrible.

Minghui had been listening quietly, and when Niki finished speaking, he raised an eyebrow in surprise and said:

"Your perspective is quite novel; I hadn't considered that aspect either."

However, your speculation is correct; Queen Amaterasu's condition is indeed as you described.

When she was very young, she witnessed her mother, who had become a war goddess, perish together with the enemy.

From this perspective, it's not hard to understand why she didn't want to become a war god.

"But it is understandable."

At this moment, Niki shook her head, a look of worry appearing on her face, and said:

"But if she continues with this idea, this planet will be in danger."

When I arrived, I noticed that the people of this planet still lead a relatively primitive lifestyle. Perhaps the royal family possesses advanced weaponry, but if an enemy comes prepared, they will be absolutely unable to withstand it.

"That's why we came here."

Minghui smiled, his expression somewhat strange.

Tsk, the person you're helping isn't very bright, and most of your teammates seem to have lost their minds. If it weren't for the number of people, Kai, how would you have won?

However, Minghui actually felt that something was not right.

Those people were fine when I saw them not long ago. Although it may have been a long time for them, there shouldn't be such a big change.

There must be something fishy about this!

With this in mind, Minghui turned his gaze to the Tree of Life that he was leaning against.

He had a hunch that the somewhat mythical Tree of Life was behind it all, but in his perception, the tree showed no abnormalities whatsoever.

Although it was constantly emitting a strange energy, that energy only made him feel physically and mentally comfortable, as if he were bathed in light.

But Minghui still had a vague feeling that something was wrong. He stood up and scanned the ridiculously large tree with his eyes.

"what happened?"

Seeing his actions, Niki couldn't help but ask.

"I'm a little curious about this Tree of Life. I'll take a look at it."

Minghui continued his work without turning his head, saying:

"Legend has it that the God of War and the Quine... oh, you mean the mothers of the Baalzeb, were both born from this Tree of Life."

At the same time, it can inspire wisdom in all life in the universe and prompt them to evolve.

Such a tree is almost a miracle.

"Then you'd better be careful when you're studying it, so you don't hurt it."

Niki reminded her.

"That's natural."

Minghui nodded, and his figure slowly took flight.

Over the next half day, he thoroughly examined the entire Tree of Life, from the trunk to the branches, from the leaves to the fruit, leaving no part unchecked.

But the result was still the same; he didn't notice anything unusual.

"Could it be... that those two guys just had a momentary lapse of judgment? Or was it a staged performance to train new talent?"

Standing on the canopy of the Tree of Life, Minghui scratched his head, feeling a little confused.

Unable to figure it out, he decided to stop thinking about it:

"Never mind, let's wait and see. We'll know for sure then."

Just then, Shinra, who had gone to negotiate with Caiqi, also returned to Planet Ganon in his fighter jet.
