Douluo: Rainbow Cat, Blue Cat, Seven Swords and Dragon Rider

Chapter 1144 Lina and Daigo's Dilemma
At the GUTS headquarters, GUTS captain Megumi saw Yuzare, who was dressed up as herself, in a time machine.

The ghost tells Megumi that destruction has come.

"Zoga has been resurrected, the demon bird that burns the earth. He will bring endless darkness and completely devour this land."

"An endless expanse of darkness?"

"A messenger who brings terror, destruction, and sorrow, and who reduces everything to nothing."

"Is this something that happened in the past, or a prophecy of the future? Commander of the Earth Defense Force, Yuzare."

"I am just a program; I cannot predict what will happen in the future."

Just as Megumi was about to ask him more questions, Yuzare had already disappeared before his eyes.

After the Victory Team returned from their failed attempt to stop Zoga, Lina went to the technical department to request modifications to the Victory Flying Swallow 1, but was told that the Flying Swallow 1 could no longer be modified.

However, the technical department has an experimental machine called Snow White, which is indeed faster than Swallow 1, but it is not equipped with an attack module.

Lina said it didn't matter; only by catching up with the demon bird Zoga could she have a chance to defeat him.

Meanwhile, Daigo found Lan Hong and his group, wanting to learn more about the Dark God.

"Daigo, with your current strength, there is absolutely no possibility of you defeating the dark god Gatanothor."

Faced with an enemy you know you can't defeat, what choice would you make?

"Do you even think that's an enemy I can't defeat?"

"This is a fact that no one can deny. You even have a hard time dealing with that strange bird called Zoga, and Zoga is a mass-produced type; there are many more in the R'lyeh ruins."

This sentence startled Daigo again. One Zoga was already difficult to deal with; if hundreds or thousands of Zoga appeared at the same time, the scene would be unimaginable.

But I finally understand why the whole world was ablaze in his dream, and the flames that burned the entire land were brought by these numerous Zoga.

"What do I do now?"

Daigo's voice was clearly filled with confusion, while Lan Hong's voice rang in Daigo's ears.

Instead of getting lost here, do something you can do right now.

Humans are a race adept at creating miracles; try to create miracles.

"The fact that you survived Zigela's ordeal proves that you have the potential to create a miracle."

Daigo looked at Lan Hong, and Lan Hong gave him an encouraging look.

Daigo nodded, which was a sign that he had cheered up.

"Thank you, I understand. I will never give up no matter what. Humanity will definitely create miracles, defeat that dark evil god, and create a better future."

After saying that, Daigo returned to the GUTS team.

"My idol, do you really think he and humans can create miracles?"

"Maybe so. Let's wait and see. And if a miracle doesn't happen in the end, I'm sure you and Keisha won't be indifferent."

"Even if Keisha and I don't make a move, you, my god, will, right? Your heart is clearly softer than Keisha's and mine."

Lan Hong simply smiled and said nothing more.

Meanwhile, on the Victory team's side, Daigo, who had just returned to the team's headquarters, ran into Rena again.

"Daigo, where did you go?"

"I went to find out about that monster. But what's wrong with you lately? You look unhappy. Did I do something wrong?"

Lina didn't say anything, she just shook her head and turned to leave.

Daigo, being a smart man, guessed that Rena had probably discovered his identity but didn't know how to bring it up, hence her inner turmoil. Daigo himself was also struggling with whether or not to confess to Rena, and so, the two lovers were trapped in their own dilemma.

As Daigo closed his eyes, he once again saw the scene of the destruction of the ancient civilization.

"Why did you make me see this? Why, Yuzare, answer me!"

"Daigo, who is both human and light, the answer lies within your own heart."

In the dream, Yuzare gave such an ambiguous answer, and then Daigo was awakened by the urgent sound of an alarm.

Zoga reappeared, while Lina had already boarded the Snow White.

The Snow White was eventually equipped with an attack device, but it only had five rounds of ammunition, which meant that attack opportunities were limited, and Lina had to seize every opportunity to attack.

At this moment, Daigo also boarded the Snow White.

"Lina, you focus on driving, I'll take care of the shooting."

Lina ignored Daigo and simply flew the Snow White out of the base.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Hoi and Shinjo piloted the Dolphin to investigate the Ruins of R'lyeh.

Rena and Daigo, aboard the Snow White, joined forces with Munakata, commanding the Flying Swallow 2, and Nozue, piloting the Flying Swallow 2, to intercept Zoga.

But in the end, it failed. Zoga was too fast, and the Snow White could only catch up on its own. However, the Snow White could not fly out of the atmosphere.

But Lina ignored the orders and insisted on chasing after them in a higher direction.

"Lina, what's wrong with you? Tell me!"

Why? Why didn't you tell me? Why did I have to bear it all alone?

Does that mean Ultraman has an obligation to bear the responsibility of protecting the Earth all by himself?

Daigo, don't you think it's unreasonable for you to fight this all by yourself?
If it were me, I would also want to become light and fly higher.

“Lina, this is not an obligation. Because I am a human being, I am just doing what I can do.”

"I can't turn back now, Daigo, change."

"You can become light too, you definitely can."

Daigo, who took out the Spark Lens, transformed into Ultraman Tiga and held the Snow White in his hand.

Ultraman Tiga, in his aerial form, caught up with Zoga, and Rena struck Zoga's wing with the Snow White, knocking him down from the sky.

"This young couple is quite interesting. Keisha, when do you think Lina discovered that Daigo is Ultraman Tiga?"

"There must have been suspicions for a while, and then the suspicions deepened little by little until they were finally confirmed."

Zoga, falling from the sky, eventually crashed onto a grassland.

After landing, Zoga tore off his other wing as well, seemingly without feeling any pain, which appeared extremely cruel.

After landing, Zoga's strength was indeed not that great.

It was quickly defeated by Ultraman Tiga and blown to pieces.

This time, Ultraman Tiga did not fly away, but instead transformed back into Daigo's form in front of Rena.

Before the young couple could even express their feelings to each other, their communicators beeped with urgent alarms, revealing that more Zoga were attacking the city.

Daigo also remembered that Tsuruhi had said that there were many Zoga in the R'lyeh Ruins.
