After saying that, she took another step back and stood in a row with her five older brothers.

Seeing this, Zoffy and the others raised their hands and gently patted Taro on the shoulder.

The gesture contained both comfort and relief that the younger brother, who lacked emotional intelligence and had recently considered using an Ultra Bomb to blow up Belial, had finally learned the importance of "discretion is the better part of valor."

In an instant, everyone's face broke into a knowing smile.

Only Father of Ultra, who kept groaning in pain, silently endured it all!

Chapter 61 Belial: ...Aren't you all surprised?

When this "brotherly and friendly communication" that had been waiting for hundreds of thousands of years finally came to an end, Father of Ultra was not only beaten worse than Saiwen, but even his cloak was torn to shreds, resembling a beggar's rags.

Fortunately, Belial not only used restraint but also knew how to control his strength. After treating Seven, Mother of Ultra realized what was about to happen and personally led the Silver Cross Army's stretcher team, waiting for a long time at the entrance of the observation room.

Therefore, the moment Belial stood up and withdrew his hand, the Silver Cross Army's stretcher team quickly entered the observation room and skillfully lifted Father of Ultra onto the stretcher. Without further ado, they also placed Seven, whose injuries were not fully healed, onto the stretcher as well.

Then, with a calm expression as if it were nothing out of the ordinary, he quickly left in front of everyone.

During this time, Father of Ultra, who was still conscious, seemed to have given up entirely when the stretcher team passed by Taro. He no longer maintained his aloof and serious captain's image and instead glared at Taro with a look that was a mixture of resentment and grievance.

However, Taro had finally figured it out. Without the slightest hesitation, almost the instant Father of Ultra looked over, he quickly hid behind Belial.

It's just like when Taro was a child and got into trouble, and Father of Ultra was chasing after him to beat him up, he instinctively hid behind Belial.

Then, Belial, while protecting Taro, who appeared to be even more robust than himself, glared at Father of Ultra with an annoyed look and pretended to swing his fist, which frightened Father of Ultra into lying down and playing dead.

Taro, who was gradually being assimilated by Zero into a "filial son," couldn't help but cover his mouth, leaning on Belial's back, his shoulders shaking as he desperately tried to suppress his laughter.

Of course, just like when Seven was carried away earlier, even though his whole body was almost falling apart, he still let out a silly laugh from time to time.

Despite his seemingly pitiful appearance, Father of Ultra could sense that he had only suffered minor injuries.

Given Father of Ultra's incredible physical abilities, he doesn't even need the Silver Cross Army's treatment. He can be fully revived simply by going outside for a short walk and basking in the light of the Plasma Spark Tower!

This was enough for Father of Ultra to realize that his good brother hadn't been able to bring himself to kill him after all!

Even the stretcher team of the Silver Cross Army deliberately left him a way out, saving Father of Ultra's last bit of face!

Therefore, Father of Ultra, who was lying on the stretcher, had just left the headquarters of the Ultra Guard. He suddenly sprang up and jumped off the stretcher, tearing off his tattered cloak as he did so. Under Mother of Ultra's helpless yet understanding gaze, he seemed to be possessed, grabbing one Ultra after another as they passed by, and excitedly shouting as they looked at him with flattered eyes.

"Hey? How did you know my good buddy was back?"

"Ah! I can finally retire!"

"Mary! Did you see that? Belial didn't even really hit me hard! That means he still cares about me as a brother! Hahahaha!"

Little did they know, Belial and the others standing in the observation room were watching Father of Ultra's childlike appearance in real time through the huge holographic projection screen in front of them.

So much so that Belial raised his hand to his forehead, outwardly feigning disapproval and unwillingness to admit he knew this mad, stupid bull. But his body language betrayed him; he not only secretly recorded this embarrassing moment, but the corners of his mouth also noticeably turned up in a smile.

"Alright, let's put aside the old scores for now... I think there's something you've probably already figured out: I am indeed Belial, but not the 'Belial' you know."

Of course, having fun is one thing, and making a fuss is another.

Considering that the Belial in this universe is still alive and has most likely already fled to a parallel universe, built his vast empire, and is ready to launch a counterattack against the Land of Light at any time.

After his smile faded slightly, Belial turned around, hands on his hips, to face the obediently standing crowd. His gaze swept over them, and Belial, who always hated riddle-makers, got straight to the point.

"I come from a parallel universe. I was originally dealing with the Gu A-San siblings when, for some reason, I ended up here in a daze. Also, I need to remind you that Belial in your universe is indeed not dead. Not only is he alive and well, but he is also preparing to form the Darklops Zero Legion to invade the Land of Light again."

After he finished speaking, the observation room fell silent.

But to Belial's surprise, no one, including Dark Lops Zero, showed any shock or disbelief.

Because the Ultra race, as high-dimensional beings with highly advanced technology, had long been exposed to the concept of parallel universes.

Putting aside the fact that they have more or less personally experienced events related to parallel universes—for example, Zero recently saw two identical Panlong ships—Belial's undisguised behavior alone was enough for them to realize that something was wrong.

after all……

If Belial really did return after being redeemed, why can he still transform into that ugly black thunderous bullfrog form, and even switch back and forth at will?

And it's true that the original Belial did take care of them, the younger generation.

However, even the Belial before his corruption would never be as gentle and considerate as the Belial before him!

As for why they haven't exposed this point...

Just kidding! This is a Belial Supreme Pro Max Edition card that fell from the sky! A top-tier, rare UR color card!

Of course, they would love for Beria to stay by their side forever!

So even Taro, who has the lowest emotional intelligence, kept silent about it when he realized the truth.

I'm afraid that if this point is revealed, the almost perfect Uncle Bei in front of me will disappear in the blink of an eye!

This led them to look at each other in silence for a moment, and the first thing they said was not to question Belial's origins, but to ask in unison.

"Uncle Belial [Grandpa Belial] [Your Majesty], will you leave us...?"

Well, of course, this is also because Beria's description of his origins was too brief.

If only they knew what Belial had gone through before he traveled to this universe...

Tsk tsk tsk, I'm afraid when the ancient Indian siblings are resurrected in this universe, they will have to face a top-tier, luxurious lineup with everyone activating red power types, vying to chop them into mincemeat.

Faced with the expectant yet fearful gazes of the crowd, Belial, who had expected to face a series of questions after the confrontation and had prepared a whole host of explanations, was stunned on the spot.

The only thing that couldn't be suppressed was the upward curve of the corners of her mouth.

Clearly, even in parallel universes, and given a time span of over 100,000 years...

The Land of Light was still the Land of Light he knew.

"...Leave? My home is in the Land of Light. Where do you little brats think I'm supposed to go? What, you want to banish me too?"

Belial, who still believed he had "died once" and would never have the chance to go back or see Ken and Rem again, immediately adopted a disgruntled expression after realizing his mistake. His seemingly dismissive tone indirectly answered the question, reassuring everyone.

He then waved his hand, happily walking down the steps, skipping the self-verification part, and continued speaking to the crowd.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about that now. As far as I know, Belial from your universe has probably already gone to a parallel universe, built a huge empire, and calls himself 'Kaiser Belial'."

"If you want evidence... here, the boy you see now, who looks like Zero's long-lost twin brother, is named Darklops Zero. He's the prototype that Kaiser Belial personally created based on Zero's combat data."

"And the significance of his birth, like those mechanical Ultra Brothers, was originally intended by Kaiser Belial to be a weapon for invading the Land of Light. But because he developed self-awareness, he was deemed a defective product by Kaiser Belial and abandoned in space, where he was then picked up by the Salome aliens."

After he finished speaking, everyone turned to look at Darklops Zero.

The latter, out of absolute loyalty to Beria, also immediately displayed a "forgetting his roots" act. He decisively nodded, testifying to Beria's words, and "betrayed" Caesar Beria, who had created him!

Fortunately, Darklops Zero was already severely damaged when it was found by the Salome aliens, and most of its stored data was lost...

Otherwise, there would be no need to wait for the mass-produced Darklops Zero Legion to invade the Land of Light.

DarkLops Zero can now share the Empire's coordinates, allowing the Land of Light to overturn the heavens and take the lead in attacking Caesar Belial!

Chapter 62 You can't beat me in academia, but you can ruin my reputation in education!

After Belial spoke up, revealing that the Belial in this universe was not only alive but had also changed his name to "Kaiser Belial" and was continuing his plot to invade the Land of Light, the Ultra Brothers all became serious, displaying the competence and composure of the Showa-era older generation.

Zoffy immediately pulled up the current defense map of the Land of Light, and after a quick scan, marked several key points. He then assigned Man, Jack, Ace, and Taro to each form an elite squad to be stationed there, further strengthening the Land of Light's security.

During this time, Zoffy also emphasized that as soon as something is wrong, regardless of whether you can win or not, you must immediately send an Ultra Sign to warn others.

Clearly, he learned from the lesson of how the Ultra Brothers nearly wiped out Tyrant when they used a series of attacks against him.

Of course, Zoffy himself wasn't idle either.

After obtaining Darklops Zero's consent, he summoned Hikari. He planned to team up with Hikari to attempt to repair Darklops Zero's severely damaged database in order to obtain as much intelligence as possible about Kaiser Belial's actions.

During this time, Belial generously transformed into his "Black Power Form," allowing Hikari to extract a portion of his photon blood as a research sample. He also provided the recipe for portable miniature plasma sparks, asking Hikari to make some for him whenever he had time, just in case.

This will allow Hikari to try and see if he can find a solution to extract the Reibrondo alien factor from it.

Of course, part of the reason is to allow Belial in this universe to come to his senses before committing more crimes.

However, it cannot be denied that Beria also harbored some selfish motives.

Because he was unconscious, he was unaware that, by a twist of fate, he had gained a large portion of the Rebrondo aliens' power without being corrupted by their souls in the slightest.

Therefore, Belial was always worried that if he let his guard down, he might do something as stupid and foolish as the Belial in the original story, squandering a winning hand.

If Hikari can find a solution, it will be an extra layer of insurance for Belial himself, and he can relax a little.

As for Belial, who is also a scientist, he has already arrived in the Land of Light and has no shortage of scientific equipment. Why doesn't he solve these problems himself...?

Ha, please, don't forget that Belial, who was once just an ordinary office worker, didn't initially have such a grand dream as saving the world when he traveled to the Ultra Universe. He simply wanted to lie down and do nothing, living a leisurely retirement like a salted fish.

The reason he used to do everything himself and was once regarded by the elders as the perfect successor was because he only had Ken by his side, a brute whose muscles replaced his brain and whose strength replaced his thinking! Superman Hikaru wasn't even born yet!

Knowing that he would face a life-or-death crisis in the future, Belial, who has an external brain, has no choice but to be ruthless to himself and work hard to create various equipment by hand.

But things are different now. Not only was Hikari born, but he is now the director of the Space Science and Technology Agency!

Instead of using readily available resources and top-tier cheat codes, Belial sees it as simply forcing oneself to endure hardship.

"Very well, that's all I wanted to say. You can handle it as you see fit. As for what happens next..."

So, after informing Hikari of these needs, Belial turned and focused his gaze on Zero.

At this moment, Zero, overwhelmed by a strong sense of crisis, realized that after his elders' troubles had come to a temporary end, it would be his turn to suffer. So he tiptoed toward the door of the observation room.

"Don't even think about sneaking away, Zero. I'm not old enough to have dementia yet... Come with me to tutoring."

He thought he had moved quietly and discreetly enough.

After all, he was chased and kicked by Leo for so many years on Planet K76. I can't speak for his other skills, but the escape abilities he inevitably developed during that time were absolutely top-notch!

Just as Zero was about to step out of the observation room and regain his freedom, his eyes gleaming with excitement, Belial, who had silently appeared behind him, reached out and grabbed Zero by the back of the neck.

The force was just right, neither too light nor too heavy, enough to lift Zero's feet off the ground, leaving him suspended in mid-air like a kitten being pinched by the scruff of its neck.

The words that whispered in his ears, like the murmur of a demon, completely petrified Zero! He couldn't help but complain!

"Eh! No, Grandpa Belial, don't you think it's a bit inappropriate for me to go to tutoring now?"

As he spoke, Zero didn't forget to thrash around in mid-air a couple of times. Only after realizing that he couldn't break free from Belial's iron-like grip and narrowly lost to him in terms of stats did he decisively switch to his adorable mode, pitifully turning his head to look at Belial.

“You just said that your other self could invade the Land of Light at any time. As a member of the Ultra Guard, shouldn’t I be focusing on training even more? If you’re worried I’ll slack off, I can add a set of combat training to the standard basic training! If that’s not enough, I can add two sets of beam attack training, and then…”

"No, no, no, Zero, how could I bear to exploit you like this? You need to balance work and rest..."

However, before Zero could finish speaking, Belial interrupted him in a kind, elder-like tone.

He spoke each word as if he genuinely cared for Zero. But deep in Belial's eyes, a hint of mischievous anticipation flickered.

“You’ve been training with Leo on Planet K76 for so many years, and you’ve almost reached the limit of this stage. If you continue training, it will be difficult to achieve a qualitative leap in a short period of time. Why don’t I help you catch up and make up for the serious academic shortcomings you’ve fallen behind in all these years because you dropped out of school?”

"No...no! I object!"

Upon hearing this, Zero couldn't help but shudder, and his voice rose a full octave.

It began to struggle violently, kicking its legs wildly in the air, trying to break free from Belial's iron grip.

"Just send me to training, Grandpa Belial! Even if it means putting on my training armor again and getting kicked by Leo hundreds of times a day, I'd be happy!"

"Good idea, we can consider adopting it later, but for now... objections are ineffective, just accept your fate, little Zero~"

Unfortunately, Belial announced Zero's final fate in an almost gleeful tone.

He then picked up the still struggling young warrior with one hand and strode towards the entrance of the observation room, under the watchful eyes of the Ultra Brothers, who were filled with either sympathy or envy.

As Belial passed by Ace, he seemed to remember something and turned to Ace.

"By the way, didn't you adopt a child named Zeta? And you, Taro, you already have a son named Taiga, right? Bring both of them to school later. Also, please pass on a message to Seven for me, telling him to come to school to see me as soon as he recovers from his injury. Anyway, bringing one or two is the same as bringing two, I'll give them all a class together."

"R-really? No problem! Uncle Bay! I'll go pick up Zeta right now! Hahahaha—!!!!"

Ace was stunned for a moment, his expression first one of disbelief, then as if afraid Belial would change his mind. He had just nodded in agreement when he had already disappeared!

Taro wasn't as exaggerated as Ace.

After all, Taro and Taiga are like Ken's genes that suddenly mutated; both father and son are top students with excellent grades! So when Taro heard that Taiga was also going to have tutoring with Belial, he wasn't too worried about it.

Instead, when Belial mentioned that Zeta should also learn, Zeta looked at Belial with a look of astonishment and gave him a thumbs up.

"He actually accomplished something that most people wouldn't even dare to dream of. No wonder he's Uncle Bell! I'll go pick up Taiga now!"

In his words, considering that Belial was from a parallel universe, Taro clearly wanted to remind Belial that the Zeta of his universe might be different from the Zeta he knew. But the thought that if Belial changed his mind because of his words, Ace would definitely grab the Ultra Guillotine and chase after him, hacking him to pieces, made Taro, who had already figured it out, decisively swallow the words that were already on the tip of his tongue.

But as he was leaving, he couldn't help but turn back and cast a look of sympathy and regret at Belial.

This reaction made Beria's heart skip a beat. He began to vaguely doubt whether his decision had been too hasty.
