Ultraman: Invincible from Saving Tiga

The resentment fell silent.

After an awkward silence, Hikari's Armor of Vengeance began to fade, and the blackish-green resentment on its surface melted away like ice and snow, about to dissipate on its own.

However, just before it was about to disappear completely, Hikari suddenly reached out and tightly gripped the gauntlet of the armor.

“Aberstar…”

He raised his head, his gaze incredibly clear and resolute.

"Give me strength!"

"I want to protect, I want to protect all the beautiful things worth protecting! Even though I, as a member of the Blue Clan, am not naturally good at fighting, even though the road ahead is full of hardships and obstacles, I will never be afraid again, and I will never back down!"

His determination to fight for this planet to the very last second, his burning belief in protecting everything, resonated perfectly with this pure protective power from Aber.

The dark armor of vengeance stopped dissipating.

Then, guided by Hikari's unwavering will, the color of the armor began to change.

The silver-gray that represented resentment and despair has been replaced by dazzling gold and pure white.

Finally, a brand new suit of armor, brimming with an aura of holiness and courage, appeared on Hikari's body.

The Armor of Courage is born!

Just then, Bogaru, who had just been forcibly "resurrected" by the power of time reversal, finally came to his senses from his brief moment of confusion.

Its memory was also reset to the very moment it arrived on this planet.

It only remembers that it came here to eat.

This planet before us is lush with water and vegetation, teeming with life—it's practically a cosmic buffet. And those two giants, radiating an alluring glow, are the ultimate main course.

Dinner's ready!

"Roar--"

Bogaru let out a greedy roar, and the two huge mouths behind him suddenly opened, lunging at Hikari without hesitation.

However, this time, it was no longer the weak and powerless Blue Clan scientist who could only passively take the beating that was waiting for it.

"Don't think about it!"

With a low shout, Hikari, clad in gold and white armor of courage, stepped forward to meet the attack. He didn't even use any beam attacks; he simply raised his arm and precisely blocked Bogaru's claws, which were powerful enough to tear apart a warship.

boom--

With a dull thud, Bogaru's unstoppable force was abruptly halted.

An unprecedented sense of unease instantly surged into Bogaru's simple mind.

The food in front of me seems... different from other giant life forms?

Before it could figure it out, Hikari had already begun its counterattack.

His movements were no longer hesitant or confused; instead, they were characterized by textbook-perfect and sharp fighting techniques. The armor was teaching him how to sidestep, block, elbow strike, and whip kick!

Every strike is imbued with the determination to protect, and every move unleashes tremendous power.

Bogaru, who had once suppressed Hikari to the point of no return, was now the opposite, being defeated by a series of smooth combos and forced to retreat, letting out painful roars.

How could he be... so strong?

Bogaru's impatient eating mentality was incomprehensible; he was just a giant, how could his opponent be so powerful?

It was forced to retreat repeatedly, and a series of dazzling sparks burst from its chest shell.

"Roar!"

Completely outmatched, Bogaru finally felt fear. It feinted, then leaped backward, opening its two mouths on the ground and aiming them at the newly revived crystal lifeforms.

Even if I can't beat you, can't I at least eat something to replenish my strength?

Purple energy gathered in its mouth, about to burst forth.

"I won't let you succeed!"

A fierce glint flashed in Hikari's eyes. He could feel the will of this planet channeling a continuous stream of power into him through this armor.

The belief in protection reached its peak at this moment.

hum-

His armor of courage shone brightly, its golden patterns like flowing lava, illuminating every corner of the armor.

Speed, strength, and defense have all been enhanced in this moment!

Bogaru only felt a blur before his eyes, and Hikari's figure appeared in front of him as if by teleportation, a golden iron fist burning with golden flames slamming solidly into his face.

boom!

A terrifying force erupted, and Bogaru's head was violently slammed to one side. His massive body lost its balance and staggered to the ground.

Hikari gave it no chance to breathe, crossing his arms in front of his chest as golden energy surged wildly.

"With this protective power, I will completely purify you."

"Heat load rays!"

A blazing golden beam of light, fused with Hikari's own light energy and the guardian will of Aberstar, suddenly shot out from his hand, instantly engulfing Bogaru's massive body.

"Ow—!"

Amidst a piercing, distorted scream, the higher-dimensional predator Bogaru, along with its insatiable desires, was completely evaporated by the golden light, transforming into the most insignificant dust in the universe.

This time, it was truly a complete annihilation, both body and soul.

Chapter 249 Ultraman, are you awake?

After the battle, Hikari slowly landed on the ground. Looking at his brand-new armor and feeling the warm and powerful energy within him, he was momentarily dazed.

Pop, pop, pop.

A crisp clapping sound rang out, and Lin Yu walked over while clapping his hands.

"A beautiful strike, well done."

Hikari snapped out of his daze, immediately removed his armor, and respectfully bowed to the unfamiliar giant.

"Thank you so much for your help. If you hadn't arrived in time, Aberstar would probably be..." His voice was full of gratitude.

"It's just a little effort."

Lin Yu waved his hand and pressed down on Hikari's shoulder, clearly feeling the other's body stiffen.

He said in a gentle tone, "I am Tiga, Ultraman Tiga, from the Land of Light. I have heard of you, scientist Hikari, whose research on life solidification technology has caused quite a stir."

Upon hearing this, Hikari's blue body trembled slightly, and a look of shame appeared on his face: "Yes, that was indeed my fault. My name is Hikari, Tiga...senpai."

He finally learned the other person's name.

"No need for 'senior,' just call me Ultraman Tiga."

Lin Yu smiled, then changed the subject, "However, I am not from the Kingdom of Light in this universe."

"Another universe?" A hint of surprise flashed in Hikari's eyes.

“That’s right.” Lin Yu nodded and briefly explained the crisis in his world and the purpose of seeking assistance.

After listening to Lin Yu's account, Hikari fell silent.

His gaze swept over this beautiful planet that had been reborn, but a heavier sense of responsibility welled up in his heart.

This time, Planet Aber was saved because of Ultraman Tiga's appearance.

However, looking at the vast universe, how many other planets, like Aber, face the threat of monsters and invaders but are powerless to do anything about it?

What will happen next time? Must we always hope for a miracle?

As an Ultraman, as a member of the race of light, he has always strived to change everything with his wisdom and technology. But reality tells him that it is far from enough.

In the universe, there are frictions between different civilizations, hatred between races, and conspirators hiding in the shadows... These complex problems cannot be solved by power or technology alone.

An unprecedented sense of confusion welled up in his heart.

Looking at his expression of worrying about the country and the people, or rather, worrying about the planet and the universe, Lin Yu could roughly guess what he was thinking.

As expected of a top scientist, his ideological awareness is truly high.

If half of the moral standards were shared among other cosmic beings, this universe would probably be united by now.

"I know what you're thinking."

Lin Yu began, "These problems are indeed difficult for the few of us to solve on our own. So..."

He deliberately dragged out the sound, a mysterious smile on his face.

"Let's go find the King of Ultra. If he is the one who understands everything in the universe, he can surely give us the right guidance."

Lin Yu spoke eloquently, but in his heart he was cursing wildly.

Old Wang, I've gone to great lengths to help you guide this confused younger generation who's about to get stuck in a rut. If you don't give me something in return, that would be really unfair!

For example, giving away Ultraman Fusion Bracelet, King's Cloak, King's Hammer, or some Ultraman toys wouldn't be too much to ask, right?

After all, I helped you protect your future top scientist and also prevented Tregear from turning evil. This achievement should be worth at least a legendary item, right?

"King of Ultra..."

Hikari murmured to himself, a glimmer of hope rekindling in his eyes.

Indeed, if it were that legendary king, he would surely be able to point out the way forward for him.

In fact, the planetary will of Aber had prophesied upon his arrival that he should seek the help of the King of Ultra. However, before he could even set off, Bogaru arrived.

"I understand."

Hikari nodded solemnly. "Tiga, I am willing to travel with you. Before we set off, I also plan to go to the King's Planet to pay my respects to that king."

"Then what are we waiting for?" Lin Yu grinned. "Let's go!"

The two bid farewell to the will of the planet, and that gentle consciousness conveyed endless gratitude.

Then, the two figures transformed into two streaks of light, one blue and one colorful, soaring into the sky, tearing through the clouds, and flying rapidly towards the legendary planet in the depths of the universe.

King Star.

A lonely asteroid suspended in a corner of the universe.

When Lin Yu and Hikari descended from the sky as beams of light, landing on this land, they were met with a desolate scene.

The entire planet was almost devoid of any signs of life. The ground was a monotonous reddish-brown, and there was not a trace of green on the vast land. Only in the distance, the boundless, lifeless sea surged silently.

"Is this...the King's Planet?" Hikari looked around at the scenery and asked incredulously, "The coordinates should be correct."

"Don't worry, that person probably prefers to live in a quiet place." Lin Yu said, as if he was used to it.

Soon, they spotted a figure on the beach.

It was an old man wearing a gray hood, sitting alone on the rocks fishing. His figure looked particularly lonely against the desolate background.

Upon seeing this, Hikari perked up and immediately stepped forward, respectfully asking, "Excuse me, sir, do you know where the King of Ultra resides?"

Lin Yu followed behind, watching the "old man's" back, and his lips twitched violently.

Well, well, well, I've really learned something new today.

This is the first time I've ever seen a human being nearly 40 or 50 meters tall.

Your Majesty, next time you're going to put on an act, could you at least try to make it look convincing? With your size, you could only fool an innocent boy like Hikari who's never been to Earth and has no concept of human size if you said you were human.

What kind of human being is this?!

Lin Yu mentally ranted and complained.

In response to Hikari's question, the old man fishing did not turn around, but slowly raised his arm and pointed to the sky with his simple fishing rod.

Rumbling--

In an instant, the once clear sky changed dramatically. Thick dark clouds gathered from all directions, blocking out the sunlight and plunging the whole world into darkness.

Immediately afterwards, large raindrops poured down, and the wind whipped up the icy rain, pounding hard on the two of them.

"I want to know where that Superman is,"

The old man's aged yet authoritative voice rang out amidst the wind and rain, "Let's stop this heavy rain for now."
