Ultraman Any Key: Qiming

Chapter 599, Section 595: The Eternal Core Stone, the Hellroaring Beast

Agul, back on shore, lowered Dyna's submarine and then deactivated his transformation.

The next moment, Dyna Submarine de-gemified and returned to normal.

[Ren] died suddenly after coming into contact with Gatanothor, the source of the gemification disappeared, and the gemification naturally ended.

Fujimiya was taken aback.

"What happened? It looks like we were just attacked..." Dyna Submarine was put away, and Kishida, who had also returned to normal, rubbed his head and came out.

After carefully looking around and confirming that Kishida was alright, Fujimiya gazed at the sea.

The sky was shrouded in thick, dark clouds, the sunlight was completely swallowed up, and the entire sea appeared gloomy and oppressive.

“It seems an even greater threat has emerged.” Fujimiya’s gaze was grave. “The sea is weeping, the earth is trembling… We need to get Qiming and Aizen Makoto to come and help.”

..........................................

At the same time that Qi Ming was fighting two opponents alone, and Fujimiya was trapped in the vast ocean.

Dan Moroboshi, aboard the Flying Swallow No. 1, followed an unusual fluctuation and arrived at a mountain forest.

Aizen Makoto, who came to help, was investigating another unusual fluctuation nearby and said to let him know if he encountered any trouble.

Two minutes after entering the forest, a noisy commotion could be heard in the distance.

"After searching for so long, we've finally found it! Are you all ready?"

Carlos Kurosaki, who had been tricked by Dark Toregia, was surrounded by a group of people carrying cameras and other equipment as he walked forward.

He arrived at the edge of a cliff and posed for the camera:

"Dear viewers, your eyes are about to leave your bodies!"

"Together with Carlos Kurosaki, he became a witness to one of the greatest archaeological discoveries in human history."

"Open Sesame!"

After saying that, he pressed the button in his hand, and the cliff behind him suddenly exploded, revealing a dark hole.

Dan Moroboshi was stunned. He stepped forward and asked, "What's going on here?"

Upon seeing Dan Moroboshi dressed in the GUTS uniform, Carlos Kurosaki exclaimed excitedly, "Isn't this Captain Dan Moroboshi of the GUTS? Come join us on an adventure!"

Dan Moroboshi said seriously, "It might be dangerous here. Let's come back another time to do the show."

Carlos Kurosaki said, "If there's no danger, how can it be called an adventure!"

After saying that, he leaned closer to Dan Moroboshi: "I heard that TPC has recently developed some very powerful weapons. Don't you plan to introduce them to the audience behind the camera and boost everyone's confidence in TPC?"

He wanted to dig up some juicy gossip from Dan Moroboshi and create a sensational news story.

The new weapon... refers to the Nasdis?
Dan Moroboshi didn't respond. He repeated what he had just said: "We have detected unusual fluctuations here. You should leave first."

Seeing that the other party wasn't taking the bait, Carlos Kurosaki's enthusiasm instantly cooled, and his tone became harsh:
"If there's real danger, then I'll expose it and be a hero."

"I have already bought this land, and I am free to do whatever I want here. The captain of the Victory Team has no right to interfere."

"Let's embark on a romantic journey now!"

Carlos Kurosaki waved his hand and led a group of logistics personnel into the blasted-open mountainside.

Dan Moroboshi frowned, wanting to follow, when his communicator suddenly beeped.

Saijo Nagi: "Captain, nothing unusual has been found in the area I'm responsible for."

Huimei: "I haven't found anything here either; the abnormal fluctuations have stopped."

Jugglus Juggler: "Me too."

Carmilla: "Boring, what a wasted trip. I was supposed to have a date with Qi Ming today."

Yamanaka: "I think it's a detector malfunction. There's nothing wrong at all. I'm going back now."

Aizen Makoto: "I had Darling scan the entire mountain and found traces of monsters burrowing underground, but now there's nothing left."

"Do you think it's possible that those monsters are just playing a joke on us, making a commotion to scare us off and then running away?"

In reality, it was the Ren Dragon that began to exert its power.

This Earth Emperor, sitting on a golden toilet... this great monster Earth Emperor guarding the Tear Altar, issued a call to action, ordering his monsters to stop the rebellion launched by the Rainbow Serpent God.

The monsters awakened by the Rainbow Serpent God were suppressed by the monsters of the Renlong Sect before they even emerged from the ground.

Rainbow Serpent Divine Monster: I'm awake now, time to get down to business.

Renlong-type monster: No, you're not awake.

Nevertheless, Dark Tregear still achieved his goal.

The Earth's monsters are keeping each other in check, leaving these protective forces with no time to spare.

At that moment, a gasp came from inside the mountain.

Dan Moroboshi's heart tightened, thinking that Carlos Kurosaki and his group were in danger, and he rushed in.

Upon entering, they discovered that Carlos Kurosaki and his group were surrounding an "altar."

On the altar, a golden stone is very eye-catching, and in front of it is a stone tablet engraved with ancient characters.

Carlos Kurosaki couldn't understand the inscription on the stone tablet, but Dan Moroboshi could.

This is... an ancient script!

"Hell lies ahead. Anyone who sets foot in this realm and breaks the seal will ignite the fires of hell, causing filthy blood to flood the mortal world..." He involuntarily recited the words on the stone tablet, his expression changing drastically.

He looked at the golden stone and, after carefully sensing it with his Ultra Telekinesis, was even more shocked.

He had felt this immense, intense energy in the form of Ultraman Triga Eternal Shining Type, which Qi Ming had transformed into.

There's no mistake, this golden stone contains concentrated energy from an eternal core!

Has someone used the energy of the Eternal Core to seal something away?

But how did they manage to do that?
Even Qi Ming and Shinjo Akane, who borrowed the power of the Eternal Core, had to return it...

Ignorance is bliss, and Carlos Kurosaki was trembling with excitement. This was definitely a major discovery!

"This is definitely a treasure left behind by an ancient civilization!" The treasure map given to him by the gods is real!
"Quick, take this stone back for professional appraisal—it might help us unlock the secrets of Earth's ancient civilization!" Carlos Kurosaki picked up the golden stone from the altar.

He speaks in a grand and dignified manner, but in reality, all he's thinking about is making a big splash.

If he gets this, his show's ratings will definitely reach new heights, and he and his channel will top the trending searches all day... and even globally!

"Put that stone down!" Dan Moroboshi shouted.

Carlos Kurosaki didn't care: "I've already bought this land, and everything unearthed belongs to me. The Victory Team can't infringe on my private property rights!"

Just then, Aizen Makoto, who was nearby, came over: "What happened?"

Dan Moroboshi quickly recounted the events. Upon seeing the camera next to Carlos Kurosaki, Makoto Aizen immediately straightened his clothes and then said to Carlos Kurosaki with a serious expression:
"Private property rights... definitely need to be respected!"

"But Captain Moroboshi is also a professional and a warrior who protects the Earth. He said that this stone cannot be picked up easily, and we should respect his judgment."

"Okay, Mr. Carlos, you name your price, and I'll buy the whole land. How about five million?"

Five million yen?
He knew Aizen Makoto because the latter was also a celebrity on social media, constantly tweeting, and he also knew that he was the boss of a large corporation with branches almost reaching Silicon Valley.

Five million yen, is that something to be proud of?
Carlos Kurosaki inwardly scoffed, outwardly maintaining a righteous and awe-inspiring demeanor while inwardly rejoicing:
"I've heard so much about you, Mr. Aizen Makoto, a sponsor of TPC."

"But this is no ordinary stone. It's a precious archaeological artifact, carrying immeasurable historical value..."

"Please don't try to measure this priceless treasure with money..."

Aizen Makoto: "I meant five million dollars."

Carlos Kurosaki stumbled and almost lost his balance.

US dollars...five million dollars?
Although I really wanted to create a sensational story by "discovering ancient treasures" and become a superstar admired by everyone, he offered me a bit too much...

“You truly are a generous philanthropist, but I would prefer to pass this treasure, which symbolizes my contributions to archaeology, down as a family heirloom. Even in my old age, I can hold this stone and tell stories to my children…”

He wanted to raise the price even higher.

Aizen Makoto: "Mr. Carlos, please put the stone down first. If the price isn't right, we can discuss it later."

He figured if Carlos Kurosaki still didn't agree, then he'd have to resort to some other methods.

The next moment, a deep, powerful roar suddenly resounded throughout the entire underground space.

That was the roar of a monster.

Immediately afterwards, the ruins shook violently, and rocks and dust fell from above their heads.

Dan Moroboshi's expression changed: "Oh no, danger! The seal has failed!"

Aizen Makoto: "Quickly put the stone back!"

Dan Moroboshi: "It's too late! I can feel something starting to riot!"

Carlos Kurosaki still acted as if he were completely unfazed:
"If there's no danger, then what kind of adventure is it?"

"No matter what happens, I, Carlos Kurosaki, will always remain this calm!"

The next moment, the collapse of the ruins accelerated, and a medium-sized rock smashed directly onto his head.

"Ouch... Run!" Carlos Kurosaki covered his head with his left hand, held the golden stone in his right, and led his team to turn around and rush out.

"Leave the stone behind!" If it weren't for the cameras filming, Dan Moroboshi would have used his Ultra Telekinesis.

The next moment, a giant beast with a slender body, a red and blue mixed color, and a height of sixty meters rushed out of the blood lake.

Its back is covered with sword-like mountains, its head has three horns like those of a demon from hell, and its club-like right arm and saw-like tail exude a murderous aura.

What is most striking is its eyes, which resemble the sixty-four-eyed demons in the deepest hell.

The Hellish Yamamon – [Seggu] – has arrived!

This is the monster sealed away by that stone that carries the power of the eternal core!

"As expected, something happened..." Aizen Makoto: "Hey, Carlos Kurosaki, didn't you say that everything on this land belonged to you? Then this monster is yours too. As its master, you should tell it not to cause any damage!"

Its terrifying appearance and the chilling aura it exudes send shivers down one's spine; its roaring presence is utterly ferocious.

Carlos Kurosaki, who had just been acting like an "adventurer," suddenly disappeared.

"This guy looks like he's going to destroy the nearby villages."

"We have no choice but to go!"

Dan Moroboshi puts on the Ultra Glasses, and Makoto Aizen pulls the Spinning Flash, and the two transform at the same time!

A burst of light! Ultraman Seven, the Super Dark King Dark Orb Ultraman, has arrived!

They simultaneously assumed fighting stances, approaching Seggu from the left and right.

Seven struck first, delivering a chop to the opponent's face, but it was easily blocked by Seggu's mace-like right arm.

The next second, Seggu's club-like right arm swung out with a whooshing sound, slamming heavily into Seven's chest!
"boom!"

The violent impact sent Seven flying hundreds of meters before he crashed heavily onto a mountain, where he remained motionless for a long time.

This explains why Cosmos died instantly after being slapped by Hyper Zetton larvae in "Ultraman Legend".

Because when the power difference reaches a certain level, even the enemy's basic attack can be fatal.

Black Orb circled behind Seggu and slashed fiercely at Seggu's back with the Dark Holy Sword!

Amidst the flying sparks, the holy sword was actually deflected.

This blow, powerful enough to split a mountain, left only a white mark on Seggu's back armor.

"It's too hard!" Aizen Makoto exclaimed.

Seggu turned and counterattacked, striking Black Orb on the head with his mace-like right arm, knocking him back heavily.

The violent impact caused Aizen Makoto's vision to go black, and he staggered backward.

Seeing that physical attacks were ineffective, he endured the buzzing and dizziness in his head, took a half step back to stabilize himself, and poured energy into the holy sword.

"Dark Orb Flame Sword!"

A dazzling, blazing ring of fire, unleashed by the Dark Holy Sword, spun and roared toward Seghgu!

In response, Segguna swung its serrated tail violently, striking the ring of fire like a baseball, and pulling the ring of fire back the way it came!
"What a joke!" Aizen Makoto was completely caught off guard by this move, but his improved reflexes from the past few days allowed him to hastily raise his holy sword to block.

"boom!"

Black Orb was knocked to the ground by the rebounding Flame Sword, and the Holy Sword fell from his hand and landed to the side.

Seven clutched his chest as he stood up, shielding Black Orb, and fired a beam of light at Seggu.

Seggu stubbornly withstood the impact of the light, advancing step by step. Sparks exploded from its chest, but this did nothing to slow its progress.

It charged towards Seven through the light and knocked him down with another punch.

The next moment, the spikes on Seggu's back flashed red, and a crimson-black beam of light shot out from its mouth, heading towards Seven and Black Orb.

This move is called "Blood Flood," Seggu's ultimate killing technique!

After being hit by this attack, the two Ultramen screamed in pain under the devastating energy impact, and their bodies collapsed and disappeared.

Less than a minute into the fight, Seggu defeated the two Ultramen with an overwhelming advantage!
This made the cameraman next to Carlos Kurosaki, who had fled to a distance, turn pale.

With such a powerful monster appearing, Earth is bound to face a catastrophe!
Carlos Kurosaki was quite excited: "I didn't expect to find anything else! Didn't you take pictures of everything? This is a major discovery!"
