"Roar—!!" The Five Emperors' massive body trembled violently, and the giant pincers that were holding Zeta loosened instantly due to the intense pain and interference!
Almost simultaneously, another sound wave enveloped Zeta's entire body like an energy shield.
This is not a hard physical armor, but rather it grants him a temporary, special state that ignores external physical constraints.
(In layman's terms: Super Armor Invincible)
Zeta felt the immense pressure on his body suddenly disappear; the brute force that had been binding him was cleverly neutralized and dissipated by the sound waves.
Seizing this fleeting moment, he abruptly shook off the Five Emperors' claws, his massive body easily sliding back several meters.
They were completely out of the deadly flame jet range!
"Wow! That's a huge help!" "Yeah, we're saved..."
Zeta and Haruki couldn't help but exclaim, their voices filled with gratitude for being saved and lingering fear.
To their even greater surprise, an unexpected figure also appeared quietly in the shadows.
"If you lose, I'll be in trouble too..." Jugglus snorted helplessly.
The dark ring in the pocket seemed extremely dissatisfied with its owner's bystander role, relentlessly flashing a red light.
[Let me do it! Why won't you let me do it?!]
Jugglus ignored her, his fingertips tracing the three badges lying in his palm.
A distant memory flashed through my mind—the arrogant, preachy face of Dyna on the planet Ganon remains vivid to this day.
(Ha, I don't hold grudges at all.)
The thought, like a feather brushing against his heart, unconsciously brought a subtle, enigmatic smile to his lips.
With his gaze fixed on Zeta on the battlefield, Jugglus Juggler no longer hesitated and forcefully hurled the Heisei Three's combination badge at the Warrior of Light.
"Let me see for myself how the Warrior of Light fights!"
The tone of his voice carried a hint of mockery, clearly indicating that he had a strong opinion against the person who said it.
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
The light flowed, and the emblem containing the power of the Heisei Three Heroes merged into Zeta's body.
After the two young people cheered with surprise, Ultraman Zeta underwent a magnificent transformation—Gamma Future Mode descended!
The slightly impetuous and naive air of the past has been swept away, replaced by a mysterious and elegant temperament.
With every gesture he made, light and shadow intertwined, as if he were casting a dazzling spell.
"This is...!" Yoko, who rushed back to the battlefield to provide support, happened to witness this amazing scene.
Her eyes lit up instantly, and the shock she felt almost made her blurt out, "This is absolutely my favorite form!"
Jugglus Juggler, who hadn't left yet, was leaning lazily against the cold, rough wall at the street corner, arms crossed.
Enjoy this magic show, directed by Gamma Future and featuring the Five Emperors, with a slightly amused expression.
A series of crisp, rhythmic high heels clicked unexpectedly from the depths of the dark, narrow alley behind him.
"Want to know the true identity of the mastermind behind this, Captain Hebikura~"
Chapter 103, "The Story of Cerebro's Losses," Episode 1
The crisp, rhythmic tapping of high heels finally stopped a few steps behind him.
Dr. Rose's unique voice, slightly mischievous and with a breathy quality, then rang out.
Jugglus's body posture remained unchanged, except that his head turned almost imperceptibly at a tiny angle toward the source of the sound.
In his deep eyes, a hint of amusement flickered slightly, like a sleeping snake sensing the scent of fresh prey.
"Oh? It sounds like the Doctor has some interesting information?"
He slowly turned around, his face once again displaying the same gentle, harmless yet unfathomable smile he had during his time at the Armory.
"Even my lovely team members could be kidnapped so quietly, it's definitely worth investigating."
His concern for the mastermind was palpable, yet his tone remained perfectly calm, as if he were genuinely just concerned about his colleague's safety.
Dr. Rose's icy blue eyes remained calm as she stared back at Jugglus Juggler, showing no sign of being intimidated by his aura.
Instead, she gracefully took half a step forward, revealing herself more clearly from the shadows at the alley entrance.
Her spotless white lab coat, even against the backdrop of gunpowder smoke, made her stand out even more.
“Of course, Captain Hebikura,” she emphasized the disguised title subtly.
"The armory's partners have been kidnapped, and there's that temporarily enhanced monster, the Five Emperors, with such obvious footprints..."
She didn't finish her sentence; she simply raised her wrist gracefully.
Almost simultaneously, the spherical device named Zero, which was hovering beside her, switched its screen to a serious scanning symbol.
It unfolded a dimly lit screen with incredible speed, projecting a clear surveillance image into the air between the two people.
The scene freezes outside the villa where Yoko and Yuka are imprisoned, capturing a fleeting yet incredibly clear frontal shot.
The young man in the picture was pale and looked somewhat neurotic. The uniform he was wearing looked very familiar to Jugglus Juggler.
Zero precisely locked onto that frame, pinning that face clearly to the center of the projection.
What's particularly chilling are those empty, obsessive, and cold eyes that seem to be burning with some kind of insane plan.
Dr. Rose lightly tapped her fingertip on the unsettling face projected on the screen. "Look,"
The introduction was given casually, as if it were merely displaying a regular wanted poster: "This is the little boy. His name, hmm, is it Cerebro?"
She turned her head to look at Jugglus Juggler and clearly saw the playful look in his deep eyes instantly replaced by a sharp, cold glint.
Just then, on the battlefield not far away, the magician's movements were like a meticulously choreographed drama, ending with a spectacular explosion.
Rose glanced sideways at the rising flames and lazily called out, "Zero~"
The spherical device whose name was called immediately and thoughtfully switched the projection, displaying a coordinate map at the bottom of the screen.
A striking bright red "X" mark points precisely to the edge of the industrial zone on the outskirts of the city, next to which is a tracking light that is updated in real time.
"He seems to be feeling pretty good right now, doesn't he?"
Dr. Rose's tone still carried a hint of scientific observer's curiosity, but there was not a trace of a smile in her icy blue eyes.
Need precise after-sales service? It's free!
The warm mask that belonged to "Captain Hebikura" on Jugglus's face finally crumbled and evaporated completely under the impact of Cerebro's name and face.
A genuine smile, filled with darkness, extreme danger, and locking onto its prey like a viper's forked tongue, slowly and clearly crept onto the corners of his mouth.
“No need,” he said, his words carrying the excitement of an impending hunt. “This unexpected guest deserves a proper visit from me.”
After all, the parasitic life form Cerebro and its infamous "self-destruction game" tricks are well-known in the world of mercenaries.
Jugglus Juggler naturally knew many of its "glorious deeds".
However, this guy actually dared to extend his claws to the Earth where he resides...
Before he finished speaking, Jugglus Juggler's figure had already disappeared into the shadows, swiftly heading in the direction indicated on the map.
"Then I wish you..." Rose smiled and looked in the direction he disappeared, waving leisurely, looking like she was looking forward to a wonderful show.
"May your military prowess be excellent!"
Although he claimed he wanted to settle scores with Cerebro, Jugglus Juggler's real target was always those glittering spoils.
The Serpent Heart Sword precisely knocked the scorching hot monster badges from Cerebro's arms.
Before Cerebro could even handle those precious badges used to synthesize the Five Emperors, Jugglus Juggler swiftly pocketed them.
Not only was he beaten up by Zeta, but he was also robbed by Jugglus Juggler. Cerebro has suffered a double loss today.
The next morning, when the armory crew members came to work, they all immediately noticed the undisguised smile on Captain Hebikura's face.
The new toy monster badge clearly put him in a good mood, but the joy didn't last long.
Just as he was preparing to enjoy this moment of relaxation, an urgent delivery mission came from above.
At the same time, a video of the attack was sent over: the researcher in the video looked dazed, as if being manipulated by an unseen force to cooperate with the action.
Shota Hebikura clicked his tongue, a sense of helplessness welling up inside him—this Earth always seems to attract some strange and troublesome visitors.
His only wish now is to be able to relax and enjoy his time fishing without being interrupted by these unexpected events.
As they prepared their tactics and set off on time, Haruki, sitting in the cockpit of Windom, couldn't help but ask curiously, "Hey? By the way, where's Yoko-senpai?"
In his mind, this mech should have been piloted by the ace pilot.
As if remembering something, Haruki added, "And I didn't see Dr. Rose today either..."
Captain Hebikura glanced at Haruki sideways, a sly smile playing on his lips.
“Yoko has other tasks,” he said casually. “As for someone of the doctor’s caliber, they’re probably already waiting for us at the destination.”
Then, he raised his voice, emphasizing, "Yaohui, you have to do a good job!"
"Oh!" Haruki responded enthusiastically, his innocent enthusiasm causing Captain Hebikura and Yuka beside him to exchange a glance.
A knowing smile appeared in both of their eyes; the chances of success for this carefully designed decoy operation seemed even greater.
Who would have thought that Sairebro would be losing money and suffering setbacks throughout the early and mid-game...
Chapter 104 Cerebro vs. Beta Impact: Who Loses More Money? (Part 1)
While Haruki piloted Windom with all his might, maneuvering and pulling King Joe back, ace pilot Yoko, carrying a specially made shielded box containing the three Ultra Badges, successfully arrived at the designated handover point. This was the outskirts of a research institute located on the edge of an industrial zone; the surroundings were eerily quiet, save for the low murmur of the wind. Her gaze quickly swept over the empty gate, a hint of doubt in her eyes. Where was the Doctor?
“Hello, the badge has been delivered.” Yoko maintained her professional tone, her gaze falling on the only researcher waiting at the door. The researcher's uniform was indeed from the research institute, neat and tidy. She suppressed her doubts, trying to convince herself: someone as important as Dr. Rose was probably safely waiting to receive the item in the deep underground laboratory. According to procedure, she only needed to safely hand over the item.
But just as she was about to complete the handover procedure, the "researcher" who was supposed to sign for the package as a matter of routine revealed a strange expression on his face that was completely out of character. His eyes were fixed on the shielded box, revealing undisguised greed and voyeurism, and his lips were stiffly pulled upwards, forcing out an extremely uncomfortable expression.
"Heh...it's a real badge." A deep, hoarse voice, seemingly crackling with electrical noise, rang out—a tone far from that of an ordinary researcher. Before the words were even finished, he completely ignored the complex security measures and, with a "click," directly opened the specially made box designed to insulate the badges' powerful energy! The moment the box opened, the three Ultra Badges lying inside were immediately exposed to the air, their faint glow illuminating his increasingly contorted, excited face. Upon confirming their authenticity, the madness he had previously barely suppressed could no longer be concealed; a ferocious, fanatical, and satisfied grin exploded across his face.
"Wait! Who...who are you?!" Yoko's alarm bells went off instantly. That wasn't a researcher! That gaze, that smile, exuded an inhuman coldness and malice! Her ace pilot's combat instincts kicked in, and she reacted immediately, her left hand flashing out like lightning to grab the arm of the person's uniform, attempting to reclaim her badge!
But Cerebro, disguised as a researcher, was prepared, or more accurately, he had no intention of engaging Yoko in a pointless struggle. Just as Yoko was about to touch him, he twisted his body at an uncanny angle, avoiding the grab. The shielding box containing the Ultra Badges was tightly clutched to his chest, as if it held his lifeline. Then he abruptly turned, not fleeing towards the seemingly safe interior of the research institute, but instead running towards the desolate, empty area at the edge of the industrial zone.
"Damn it!" Yoko cursed through gritted teeth, her combat boots slamming into the ground with a dull thud. Without hesitation, she gave chase; she couldn't let this man escape with the badge. But in that split second, a deadly shadow suddenly loomed over! Boom—! A massive steel behemoth tore through the air, carrying a heavy sense of oppression and a powerful gust of wind, and slammed down between the fleeing Cerebro and the relentlessly pursuing Yoko!
The ground trembled violently, sending debris flying. It was King Gorgio! It instantly locked onto the box in Cerebro's arms—the energy signal emanating from it was crystal clear, far superior to the decoys in the armory vehicles it had just been chasing! The anger of being deceived and the thirst for the real target boiled within the driver's heart.
"Damn it!" Yoko's pupils constricted sharply. King Gyo's timing and location were too deadly. Almost the instant the mechanical giant landed, she pressed the emergency communication button: "Robot! It's moved here—!" Before she could finish speaking, the dangerous crimson lightning that had been accumulating on King Gyo's facial armor crackled and exploded like a swarm of raging snakes! The next second, the red lightning, brimming with destructive energy, tore through the air and hurtled down indiscriminately on Cerebro and her, who were right next to it!
A blinding light instantly engulfed her vision, the violent energy seeming to ignite even the air. Yoko felt her scalp tingle, a chilling sense of death shooting straight to her spine! She had no time for any tactical maneuvering, relying only on her most primal instincts, crossing her arms to desperately protect her vitals, a sharp scream erupting from her throat: "Aaaaaah—!!!"
The communication channel erupted with desperate cries from Haruki, Hebikura, and Yuka: "Yoko-senpai!" "Yoko—!"
"Oh dear, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early." A familiar, slightly chuckled female voice rang out clearly in the communication channel, like a gentle breeze brushing against tense nerves. The crimson, deadly current that was about to devour everything suddenly crashed into a thin, translucent blue light barrier that appeared out of nowhere. The ear-piercing crackling sound of burning energy filled the air, but the violent lightning could only futilely ripple across the light barrier, unable to advance an inch.
Almost simultaneously, Cerebro, who was sprinting with the shielding box in his arms, was struck hard in the waist! It was Rose's AI assistant, Beanball. The solid impact caused him to lose his balance, let out a muffled groan, and fly uncontrollably sideways. The shielding box he was desperately protecting slipped from his grasp under the force of the impact, soaring high into the air and tracing an arc through the air—
Below, a hand wearing a black glove gracefully and steadily caught the box in mid-air. Dr. Rose's figure had silently appeared at the edge of the battlefield. She wore her signature spotless white lab coat, sunlight falling on her golden hair. One hand steadily held the badge box she had just "intercepted," while the other hand seemed to still be in the subtle gesture of activating the energy barrier. A gentle and composed smile played on her lips, as if what she was witnessing was not a barrage of mechanical monsters and a desperate escape of cosmic parasites, but merely a slightly disturbed afternoon experiment. Her gaze first swept with a hint of amusement over the disheveled Cerebro, then quickly swept over the stalemate between the red and blue energy, and finally settled on Yoko, who was still shaken under the barrier.
"Doctor—?!" Yoko's voice was filled with unbelievable elation. Her arm remained instinctively raised in front of her, but her tense body had involuntarily softened slightly. To the people in the Armory on the other end of the communication channel, this voice was like heavenly music! The communication channel, which had just been filled with exclamations of surprise, was instantly replaced by long, drawn-out sighs of relief. Their hearts were still pounding in their chests, but the despair that had almost made them want to crush the communicator had been replaced by an indescribable sense of relief. After all, in many past crises, the appearance of this elegant and intellectual scientist often meant that the most difficult situation was about to take a turn for the better.
Chapter 105 Cerebro vs. Bieta: Who Loses More Money? (Part Two)
"Phew—that's great! Yoko-senpai is alright!"
Haruki, who had hurriedly transformed and arrived, breathed a sigh of relief in Zeta's mental space, which resembled the Mystic House. His heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.
He looked at Jin Guqiao, his eyes instantly blazing with fury.
"Damn it! How dare you hurt my comrade Zetasan! Let's attack together!"
"Oh!" Zeta's reply was firm and resonant, clearly having been completely assimilated by her partner's signature catchphrase.
As a member of the Space Garrison of the Kingdom of Light, who bears the heavy responsibility of maintaining peace in the universe, the scene before him ignited his boiling fighting spirit—he would never tolerate alien invaders wantonly bullying the weak life on Earth!
However, perhaps it was the tradition of being "bad at robots" passed down through generations of the "Sydney Team" that made it so.
