Ultraman Legend of the Light Chaser

“That’s right…” Aiba Yu raised his hand and another light blade appeared. To the monster, it was as small as a thorn, but when it hit its face, it hurt like a nail. It angrily swung its blade-like claws, and a low whistling sound echoed in the air.

"Make it so that it only sees me!"

"Meow?!" (Is all alien light like this?)

"Ha ha ha ha--!"

Whether it was Pito's imagination or not, he felt that this person named Musal, no, Samuel's radiance, had been cold and aloof and spoke simply since they met. He almost thought he had summoned someone with a similar personality to Agul. It wasn't until now, when facing the monster and sitting on his shoulder watching him lead the monster by the nose like the wind, that he felt the molten lava surging beneath this outer shell.

Like the light blade he had just unleashed, it was pure and intense, bursting forth with fiery passion.

“This is the rescue team’s standard procedure,” Aiba Yu smiled.

He left the upheaval behind: "It is the rescue team's dereliction of duty to expose the public to danger—so I decided to take it to a suitable place to be a cemetery, a park would be good, with fewer people."

Then, Pito heard him say earnestly, as if someone would answer from behind, to Toyama and Nagafusa: "Kanto Disaster Relief Team, Hasegawa Squad, Aiba Yu, now on a rescue mission!"

……

The attacks by the defense forces' supporting fighter jets have had no effect whatsoever. This incident is real; the monster is now moving from Toshima Ward towards Nerima Ward, and emergency evacuation orders have been issued for the affected areas.

Inoue Rinfumi, a photojournalist for KCB, noticed the flashes of light that kept appearing in front of the monster while filming Yoshii Reiko's broadcast.

After the text message broadcast ended, he looked away from the camera with a puzzled expression. His colleagues were already in the car urging him to leave quickly.

"What are you doing, Lunwen?" Kenji Tabata leaned halfway out of the broadcast van. "Hurry up and get to the next location, pack up the equipment and let's go!"

Reiko Yoshii had already climbed into the car, saying, "Isn't there enough footage yet?"

"That's enough, that's enough." Inoue Rinfumi picked up his precious camera, lifted the tripod with one hand, and Tabata Kenji helped him move the equipment into the van.

"Well..." he muttered, glancing in the direction of the monster as he closed the car door, "What are those lights? Ground troops?"

Chapter Six Gaia

Aerial Base.

Before the intelligence was made public, almost no one knew that there was a giant airport suspended above the equator by an anti-gravity device, not to mention XIG, which had been in preparation for many years and was established in this base. The technology involved was far beyond what people knew as "cutting-edge," such as the Fighter fighter jet.

"Team Lightning is ready." A middle-aged man in uniform stood up straight. In front of him, two men with rank insignia on their chests, clearly with military backgrounds, turned their gaze from the screen. The first one responded, "Target: extraterrestrial bio-weapon. Issue city defense order!"

A middle-aged man in uniform raised his hand in salute: "XIG, attack."

……

At the front lines, the defense force's fighter jets, unaware that the monsters had drawn their aggro, escaped the fate of being destroyed and killed.

They maintained their formation and circled around, watching as the monster went berserk and darted towards less populated areas, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But 0073, who had seen the figure earlier, didn't think so.

"0073 calling tower, a...citizen spotted ahead of the monster? Requesting instructions!"

"Tower received, do you need helicopter support?"

"No, the helicopter might not be able to catch him. We can't rule out that he's also an alien! Control tower, I need to analyze... Control tower?"

The control tower had cut off communication with 0073, and chaos reigned within the tower: "Radar detected an unknown identification signal, moving very fast, expected to arrive in the Toyota area in 2 minutes!"

"What? There's a UFO too? We haven't even analyzed the one on the ground yet!"

The dispatcher's mind was a jumbled mess when a new voice crackled through his earpiece: "Four unknown identification signals from the equatorial direction, granted the highest clearance."

"Sir?"

"Don't ask any more questions, clear the airspace immediately!"

"Tower understand!" The dispatcher forced himself to calm down, confirmed the route of the unknown identification signal, and began to notify nearby flights: "NH919, maintain 8500."

"Received, keep it at 8500, NH919."

"NH967 maintains 7900".

"Up to 7900, NH967."

"Hello Tokyo, NH921, altitude 7200, transponder 5152."

"NH921, identified by Tokyo radar."

The airspace was quickly cleared, and the Mir and three Fighter fighters from Ariel Air Base passed unimpeded, with other aircraft along the route giving way under the command of control towers in various locations.

The Mir 2D fighter jet was on standby at a long distance. Three fighter jets flew directly to the city. The coastline receded rapidly beneath their feet. They lowered their altitude, and the massive silhouette of the monster appeared in their crosshairs.

Aiba Yuu caught the sound of the Fighter's engine in the distance, while the river flowed shimmering before his eyes.

The river reflects the sky, as well as the steel wings that cut through the heavens and clouds, showcasing humanity's most advanced technological achievements to the world for the first time.

"Someone's here to entertain you." Aiba Yu caught the fat cat that was thrown out by inertia due to the sudden braking, and the solid figure became illusory again. The XIG fighter pilots were all focused on the monster, and no one noticed this extremely small figure in comparison.

The open river area reduced a lot of trouble for XIG, and they didn't have to worry about firing. Team Inazuma's captain, Katsumi Kajio, liked these conditions.

Through years of training, they memorized every parameter and repeated instructions countless times. The time without opponents was both tedious and filled with anticipation.

As humans, they do not wish for an enemy to actually appear, but as warriors... they are ready to fight at any moment, just for this moment!

"Target confirmed, prepare to attack!"

"Figher2 (Figher3) understands!"

……

It felt like being on the set of a science fiction movie. First, there were familiar fighter jets using common cannons, then three more arrived with similar engine sounds.

An unfamiliar model with a buzzing sound.

One second they were black dots, the next they were visible as wings. Kinoshita Kei strained his neck, the laser beams slicing through the air like hot knives ploughing oil in his pupils.

"What's that?" Grandma asked him.

Kinoshita Kei did not answer her; his mind was blank.

He was, of course, on the set of a science fiction film, if you ignore the monster that was running rampant in the middle of the building.

"Not a city movie, not a ghost movie, not a monster movie..." he murmured, "Tokusatsu?"

Before long, an even stronger light appeared behind the monster.

A giant leaps from a great height!

Kinoshita Keiko was so engrossed in looking up at the monsters and airplanes that he nearly slipped and fell flat on his face when a small earthquake struck his feet.

When the giant landed, an earthen wall was blasted up and then quickly fell like water, as if someone had lifted a mountain and slammed it into the ground, with dust and ash swirling up like a tsunami.

The wind blew by, leaving him covered in dust and dirt.

"What the hell..."

Grandma brushed the sand off his hair: "Xiao Jing, don't swear."

Kinoshita Kei has a million swear words he wants to say.

Half of it is output to oneself.

That's Gaia! Gaia! You idiot, why didn't you watch Ultraman in chronological order instead of skipping around?! You somehow ended up transmigrating into a city and thinking you're reborn—that's awesome!

So this is what happens when you don't memorize something and get caught in a teacher's spot check! All I know is the gist of it! Huh?! What kind of monster is that?! What other monsters will come along later? Is there some kind of angel Zog boss? Hey, she's pretty.

Wait a minute, is the location of this coffee shop near my house even reliable? Are there any bugged monsters that appear and wipe out half a city?

Are there a bunch of geniuses on Alchemy Star? With my brain, is there any future in scientific research?

I violated the rules of transmigrators, which require being observant and attentive to all directions. In the past few years, after confirming that I had been reborn in another world city, I focused solely on studying to maintain my academic excellence and barely paid attention to the news except for gossip... and that's how this mess happened!

What happened to the industry giants chasing their dreams of the stars? In my second life, after years of hard study, I never imagined I had a bunch of officially appointed geniuses from another dimension above me! A whole bunch!

Is the scientific research in fantasy tokusatsu (special effects) films science or metaphysics? Huh?

Kinoshita Kei's brain was trembling!

The groundhog screamed in his mind: "A disgrace to time travelers!"

The shame of the transmigrator didn't want to speak. Gaia's rookie human form was piloting a "Gundam" behind him, pecking at the monster Gob in a chicken-like fight. He carried his grandmother on his back and ran away in silence.

At the very least, you need to go somewhere where the wind won't blow your hair all dusty.

"So that salted fish king..." He thought of something terrifying: if some supernatural thing suddenly appeared in Ultraman, it must be related to a monster.

"Could the Salted Fish King be a monster?! And that invisible shadow guy... an alien? I need to find the Earth Defense Force here. I'm a fine young man, and it turns out I've been entangled with monsters!"

Chapter Seven: Rescue

Renji Matsuo, a member of Team Seagull, is on his first mission to rescue people from a monster disaster. He hopes that he will never have to use Team Seagull again.

The most severely affected area is currently the spot where the crystal cone struck. The route the monster took to emerge has been largely cleared, and Team Gull has deployed its hovercraft directly to the coordinates (335, K1). Local firefighters are extinguishing the fire at the facility, but lacking hovercraft and with limited helicopter capacity, they can only advance slowly from the periphery towards the disaster center.

“The underground parking garage in this community is flooded!” a team member said, watching the changing values ​​on the life scanning equipment with anxiety. “It has been almost ten minutes since the alien creature landed. If the pipes are too damaged and the water level is too high, we will have no choice but to dive down—and it will be almost pointless.”

The probe spun around, and Matsuo Renji remained silent. The ground beneath their feet was cracked, with no foothold. They found a relatively stable concrete slab to stand on. A little further away, looking into the area that could still be identified as the entrance to the underground parking garage, they could vaguely see the dim light of water.

The team member continued operating the machine: "I'll try to find the 'bubble.' There should be survivors at the top of the stairs, but the stairs are blocked... Huh?!"

Matsuo Renji was startled back to his senses by his suddenly raised voice, and the others also leaned over. In the end, everyone stared blankly at the sudden surge of life reactions.

The location it points to—

It was that passageway entrance, pitch black, with all power cut off. If you wanted to go in to find someone, you'd need at least a portable searchlight.

The sound of water echoed continuously from the entrance of the passage, like countless birds breaking through the water one after another with a "splashing" sound, followed by the sound of voices.
