What does it mean that the group members have given me back the light?

A simple provocative gesture.

But this simple gesture instantly ignited Dark Zagi's fury. His scarlet eyes blazed with bloodlust, and his body erupted with boiling dark red energy, scorching and distorting the surrounding air.

"Noah!!!!!"

With a deafening roar, the ground collapsed into a massive crater the instant Dark Zagi took off, and the dark red figure exploded into several concentric sonic boom clouds as he broke the sound barrier—he didn't even glance at Yizumair, who was confronting Chiyou on the ground.

Seeing that its goal had been achieved, the silver-black giant immediately turned around, leaving a sonic boom trail behind it with a bang. Its slender figure trailed a gradually dissipating cloud in the air as it sped towards the outside of the atmosphere at top speed.

Dark Zagi is hot on their heels.

He knew, of course, that the other party was deliberately trying to lure him away from the ground battlefield, and that there must be some kind of trap involved, but his confidence, stemming from absolute power, made him scoff at the idea.

"Before true power, all schemes are meaningless! You and your pathetic calculations shall turn to dust at the ends of the universe, Noah!!!"

……

……

"Is that monster... one of Ultraman's partners?"

Beside the ruins of the original pyramid, the surviving members of the Victory Team and Night Raid Team held their breath, gazing intently at the awe-inspiring battle taking place in the distance.

A colossal beast, three hundred meters tall, stood on the earth. The shadow cast by its massive, mountain-like body was enough to cover the entire battlefield. Every step it took caused the earth to tremble, and every roar shook the heavens.

Before it, the originally ferocious and monstrous Yizumaru now appeared so small, like a child fighting against a giant. Although Yizumaru frantically spewed out various destructive beams, these attacks only stirred up a few sparks when they landed on Chiyou's white silicon-covered body.

Not long ago, they found Daigo unconscious near the pyramids, and they have not been able to wake him up since.

In stark contrast to the favorable situation where Chi You is suppressing Yi Zumeru, the battle between Dark Zagi and Ultraman presents a completely different picture.

Everyone could clearly feel that the oppressive aura emanating from the being called Dark Zagi was increasing with each passing second. In every subsequent clash, Ultraman was forced to retreat step by step.

A sense of powerless despair quietly spread through the ranks.

Although they knew perfectly well that the mountain-like behemoth Chi You before them was Ultraman's partner and was overwhelmingly suppressing Yizumeru, the fatal slash that Dark Zagi had previously unleashed, which had nearly killed Chi You on the spot, crushed their newly ignited hope like a heavy boulder.

"Don't give up!"

Kazuki Komon's voice broke the heavy silence.

He looked around at each team member present, his gaze firm and earnest: "Think back, how many seemingly invincible opponents has Ultraman faced all this time? But in the end, didn't he still win?"

“You’re right.” Zongfang Chengyi took a deep breath and straightened his back. “We can’t give up hope.”

"But what can we do now?"

Nanase Rena's gaze fell on Daigo, who lay unconscious beside her, her voice filled with undisguised sorrow:

"The fighter jet has crashed, and we don't know how to awaken the giant. How can we help Ultraman defeat Dark Zagi?"

Silence is the heaviest answer at this moment.

In this oppressive silence, Eisuke Wakura's head-down posture and silence stood out. His clenched fists trembled slightly, clearly indicating that the fact that Mitsuhiko Ishibori was Dark Zagi had deeply affected this usually composed captain.

In the midst of this suffocating silence, Masami Horii suddenly moved. He quickly rummaged through the scattered supplies among the wreckage of the fighter jet, piecing together various parts and gradually assembling them into a uniquely shaped instrument.

"what are you doing?"

Attracted by the noise he was making, Shiori Hiraki looked at the strange device in Horii's hand that was constantly humming and couldn't help but ask a question.

"I'm analyzing the battle that just happened."

Without looking up, Horii Masami straightened the antenna-like part of the instrument and rapidly operated the instrument panel with his fingers:

"Haven't you noticed? From the very beginning until now, Dark Zagi's power and speed have been constantly increasing."

"This near-exponential rate of increase is absolutely abnormal!"

Everyone crowded around to look at the instrument in his hand, where they saw densely packed energy waveforms fluctuating violently:

“Look at these data—Dark Zagi is indeed absorbing something.”

Masami Horii stared intently at the screen, his voice low with focus: "If we can figure out exactly what it's absorbing to grow stronger like this, perhaps... we can find a way to deal with it..."

"I found it!!!"

"????"

The group, who were still focused on following Horii Masami's train of thought, were startled and looked as if they had seen a ghost.

So fast? !

Suddenly, Masami Horii clapped his hands, his eyes flashing with a look of sudden realization:

"No wonder! No wonder! After he learned that the Forgotten River System could be evolved, he sent the Dark Giant to kill me! Everything makes sense now!"

Horii pointed excitedly at the violently fluctuating energy spectrum on the instrument screen, his voice trembling slightly with excitement:

"It's fear! What Dark Zagi absorbed is the same kind of fear as that within the Forgotten River System! The most primal quantum data state of fear!"

Under the puzzled gazes of the crowd, he explained rapidly:

"I've figured out how to sever this supply channel of fear energy from Dark Zagi! As long as we succeed, it will never grow stronger indefinitely again!!!"

……

……

Two streaks of light darted through the clouds at breakneck speed, the silver-black giant and the dark Zagi constantly intersecting, each collision unleashing a deafening roar.

"boom--!"

The silver-black giant delivered a powerful punch to Dark Zagi's face, the immense impact sending the giant flying backward like a meteor, instantly disappearing from sight.

However, the next second, the dark red figure flashed back in front of the silver-black giant at a speed beyond visual capture, and with a sinister smile, the backhand punch slammed solidly into the silver-black giant's breastplate!

"boom!"

The silver-black giant was sent flying backward by the heavy blow, but in the midst of this out-of-control flight, he quickly adjusted his posture—the Nexus Armor crossed in front of his chest, and his right hand slid to his left wrist, precisely assuming the classic L-shaped stance!

Cascading light·storm!

A dazzling golden stream of light shot out from the sky.

Almost at the same instant, Dark Zagi pushed his palms forward, and dark red energy gathered in his palms to form a destructive vortex!

Zaki Gravity!

Two streams of destructive light, one gold and one red, collided violently above the sea of ​​clouds, the resulting burst of light instantly illuminating the entire sky.

Is this the former enemy that Haji Guang mentioned?

Is he an opponent that even with the power of the twelve talismans, it would be difficult to defeat?

The dark red, destructive energy surged forward like a tidal wave, causing the golden light to retreat steadily. Pressure spread through Gu Nuo's heart like an icy tide.

Surprisingly, he did not feel fear; on the contrary, an unprecedented calm and clarity enveloped him.

The pressure is indeed immense, but... it hasn't reached the point where I'm completely unable to fight...

As thoughts raced, the silver-black giant's body rippled with light and split in two.

The two identical black-clad youths maintained perfect synchronization, their arms forming an L-shape, and two streams of golden light converged in the air, finally slowing down the momentum of the dark red energy.

Tiger Talisman - Twin White Tigers help you separate Yin and Yang, maintaining balance.

Dark Zagi's crimson eyes revealed disdain: "Hmph!"

He had already witnessed this ability to create clones before, although they were different in color, but...

The changes are not over yet.

As it suddenly increased its power, two new figures slowly emerged from the halo behind the two silver-black giants—one was crimson like flames, and the other was azure like the sea.

The red giant and the blue giant both assumed standard shooting stances, and four golden beams of light burst forth simultaneously!

Dark Zagi: ? ? ?

Six dazzling golden streams of light merged perfectly in the air, transforming into a golden torrent that pierced through the heavens and earth. The dark red energy instantly dissipated in the face of this immense power, and Zagi Gravity was completely swallowed up in the dazzling light!

"Noah!!!"

Dark Zagi let out a deafening roar, and golden light completely engulfed it. Light capable of breaking down any matter to the molecular level covered its entire body like a spider web, attempting to completely purify this embodiment of darkness.

But in the next second, dark red energy erupted from Dark Zagi's body like a volcanic eruption! The purifying light covering his body was shattered like a fragile eggshell, turning into countless specks of light that dissipated.

"You actually! Want to purify me?!"

Dark Zagi roared, and blazing black flames exploded in a ring outwards, attempting to incinerate all the surrounding giant clones.

Zaki Hellfire!!!

The red and blue clones couldn't dodge in time and dissipated into particles of light in the flames, but four figures still broke through the sea of ​​fire and approached from different directions!

Two silver-black giant fists glowed with an eerie light, striking Dark Zagi's chest armor and back heavily from the left and right. Just as it was about to retaliate, its consciousness suddenly wavered—

It clearly "saw" its own complete body, as if its soul had detached from its body and was suspended in the air above the battlefield.

The Sheep Charm – A spiritual sheep can leave the body and its soul can leave the body.

? ? ! ! ! !

This bizarre experience jolted Dark Zagi awake, and its soul returned to its body in less than half a second.

But, it's too late.

The four clones have firmly surrounded it in the center!

The scorching energy of light boiled over the giants' bodies; even Dark Zagi could feel the incinerating heat. The four figures simultaneously raised their arms, light flowing and converging between them, forming a perfect closed energy loop.

boom--! ! !

Chapter 73 Dark Zagi Trapped in a Dire Situation (5k)

"Roar--!"

Yizumaru let out a roar mixed with pain and rage. Its stitched-together body was covered with deep claw marks and dents. Various colored destructive rays shot towards the towering Chiyou in a chaotic and desperate struggle.

However, these attacks, which were powerful enough to destroy cities, mostly only caused sparks when they landed on Chi You's body, which was covered by a white silicon carapace, and did not cause any substantial damage.

Standing behind Chi You's head, Ayana Hanami gripped the structure that resembled a bone rein tightly. Her breathing was slightly rapid due to tension, but a strong thought suddenly rose in her mind.

Fight! Fight! Kill the monster before you! Tear it to shreds!

It was clear that Yizumaru was aware of the absolute difference in strength. It moved backward step by step, trying to widen the distance. At the same time, the glowing organ on its chest began to flash violently, and an extremely unstable and destructive energy was gathering—a sign that it was about to make a desperate attack!

Don't let it succeed!

"Roar--!"

As Banai saw Anzu shouting, Chi You beneath her roared in response.

Chi You's massive, mountain-like body displayed an agility completely disproportionate to its size. Instead of retreating, it charged forward with tremendous force! Its enormous forelimbs, carrying the power to tear the earth apart, struck Yi Zumai Ru's chest with precision and ferocity!

"Bam—!"

A dull, thunderous impact resounded across the battlefield. The glowing organ on Yizumairu's chest dimmed instantly under the heavy blow, and the energy that had been gathering halfway was forcibly interrupted, triggering a violent energy backlash!

Its massive body was sent flying off the ground by this blow, crashing heavily into the ruins several kilometers away, kicking up clouds of dust and rubble.

This time, it couldn't get up immediately. Many seams in its body had burst, oozing a viscous, unidentified liquid. Its struggles were unusually weak, indicating that it had suffered a severe injury.

ended……

As Banana watched Anja gasp for breath, her chest heaving, the agitation in her heart gradually subsided without her realizing it.

At this moment, she looked at Yizumaru convulsing in the ruins, bit her lip slightly, and subconsciously felt a little sorry for her as she looked at the recovered high school girl.

But she also knew that she couldn't be soft-hearted in the face of this monster that had almost destroyed Tokyo and nearly driven Nono, who had just debuted, to the brink of despair.

She exhaled softly and used her consciousness to transmit the final command to her companions beneath her.

Upon receiving the command, Chi You roared to the sky, declaring victory. The sound waves rolled away, and he strode forward with his giant feet, causing the earth to tremble. He walked step by step toward the immobile Yizumai Ru.

Amidst Yizumairu's desperate screech, Chiyou lowered its massive head, its gaping maw filled with sharp teeth opening wide, and an invisible suction force instantly enveloped Yizumairu's mangled body.

An astonishing scene unfolded—Yizumaru's enormous body began to twist and decompose under this power, transforming into streams of dark red energy and material particles, which, like rivers flowing into the sea, were continuously absorbed into Chiyou's body!

This process was not a gentle absorption, but a plundering and devouring with a savage aura! On the white siliceous carapace of Chi You's body, strange dark red patterns similar to those on Yi Zu Mai Ru began to appear faintly, and its aura became heavier and more ferocious at a visible speed!
