Ultraman Legend of the Light Chaser

Even without such a thing, his energy might be able to replace it.

The little figure in his head, busy sawing away, worked even harder, but Samuel thought that if he really couldn't resist the commands of the underlying logic, then giving the energy to someone else first might indeed be a good choice—in that case, Mebius would defeat him, and Estend might have a chance to survive.

He then leaped and landed beside Mebius. With one hand, he created a barrier to block the incoming attack from Dragonite, and with the other hand, he reached above Mebius's timer.

Golden light particles surged in, and the timer, which had been flashing a faint red light, beeped and then lit up with a bright blue light.

Perhaps this was the best collaboration Samuel ever made with Mebius.

The price was that his own timer started flashing an alarm.

……

"Your crappy weapon is about to be destroyed. Do you want to go down with it?"

Kataslo, accompanied by two assistants, followed the scanning device of the Yapool terminal to find Estend and Hasegawa Hayato.

So what if they were sent far away from the battlefield by that piece of junk weapon? Where could weak researchers and inferior beings possibly go?

He glanced at Hasegawa Hayato, who was posing as if he wanted to fight him, chuckled softly, and suddenly transformed into an Earthling: a respectable man in a suit, shirt, and tie.

He said to Hayato Hasegawa, "As you can see, the man next to you is an alien disguised as an Earthling, just like me. He has broken our laws, and I'm taking him back."

Hasegawa Hayato stared at him with his hawk-like eyes without uttering a word.

He wasn't an idiot; he at least knew that Samuel was protecting the giant that Aiba Yu had transformed into. He'd seen plenty of respectable people doing beastly things; after all, he'd worked in the police force before joining the rescue team.

So he wasn't fooled by Kataslo's words. The two aliens beside him—well, the aliens turned into human-like beings along with Kataslo.

Pshaw, what are you pretending to be, you elite!

Kataslow continued with a smile, "Those super beasts are my creations. If they return, you will have no chance of survival. So... do you want to live? I can give you a choice."

"Kill that alien next to you, and I can guarantee your survival in this battle."

He really is a bastard who does beastly things.

“Kanade is my team member,” Hasegawa Hayato stared at him with the same look he used to give a suspect, his voice cold yet sharp and resolute: “Citizens are protected by team members, and team members are protected by their captain.”

"Even if it means death?" Before Hasegawa Hayato could answer, Kataslo suddenly raised his left hand.

A violent explosion of sparks, but...

No one was injured.

Estend, wielding a small light gun, timely detonated the light bullet that Kataslow fired at Hasegawa Hayato.

“I knew your equipment department would provide you with a personal weapon, after all, you’re a student that Fangte values,” Kataslo’s smiling face suddenly changed, and he said coldly, “Kill the traitor and this bug!”

Lomia charged toward Eistard with her body twisting. The difference between a person specially trained in combat and someone like Eistard who was stuck in the research lab was like heaven and earth. Eistard couldn't fight back at all and was sent flying several meters away by a knee strike from Lomia.

Lomia's right hand was broken, but her left hand was still intact. She chased after him, grabbed Estend's right hand that was holding the beam gun, and twisted it hard, causing the beam gun to fall to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, she was also pushed away by a beam of light. The metal buckle on her waist shattered, and the equipment bag that was secured fell to the ground with a crisp metallic clang.

She simply abandoned the equipment bag, since her power was greatly reduced now that she only had her left hand. The next moment, she rolled on the spot, dodging the second beam of light.

Estend's right wrist was nearly broken by Lomia, but he couldn't care less about that now. He gripped another beam gun issued by the equipment department with his left hand and tried to aim it at Lomia.

At that moment, Kataslow slowly approached Hasegawa Hayato, whose wrist was twisted behind his back. Delanck mercilessly struck the Earthling with a light blast, causing him to twitch slightly. Unfortunately, Kataslow did not hear the pleading he had been expecting.

With Lomia watching him, Estend had no chance to help Hasegawa Hayato intercept the attack. Hasegawa Hayato barely dodged one attack before being hit by the next beam of light and falling to his knees.

“Wouldn’t it be better to just listen to me, you backward, insect?” Kataslow walked up to him, seeing his own reflection in the Earthling’s eyes with a mocking smile. “Now you’re going to die too.”

Yes, remember the great life that is about to give you death, Cataslow.

Hasegawa Hayato straightened up, trembling.

This kind of behavior made Cataslow not even have the heart to scoff at him.

Insects of a backward civilization, with a vain sense of dignity.

"To face the enemy without any defense is not the act of a wise person."

He heard the insect in front of him whisper.

Drunken's expression suddenly changed. The Earthling he had subdued was just moments before so weak he looked like he was about to collapse, but now he was suddenly feeling an undeniable force on his arm!

No one knew what kind of clever trick he used, but in the blink of an eye he broke free from his control and even grabbed his wrist. He tried to step forward to restrain him, but instead, he was used against him. He was involuntarily pulled forward and swung straight into the director who had not yet reacted!

Hayato Hasegawa didn't waste any more words. The moment he let go and threw him away, he kicked Dylank hard in the stomach.

Dillonk bumped into Kataslo from behind, who cried out "Ah!" and stumbled backward, clutching his nose.

As Dillonk clutched his stomach and reflexively bent over, Hasegawa Hayato strode forward, pressed his head down with one hand, and delivered a powerful knee strike to his face.

These two Yapools insist on disguising themselves as Earthlings to disgust people, and now they've given Hasegawa Hayato an opportunity—he can't fight aliens, but he might be able to share his experiences with humans, perhaps with the suspects he's captured.

Dillonk grunted and raised his left hand, palm facing Hasegawa Hayato, energy gathering on it.

But the eagle gains the advantage of its high vantage point, and the prey's resistance is futile.

Hasegawa Hayato nimbly slid to Drunken's right side, grabbed his right wrist with his left hand in a claw-like motion, twisted it backward and pulled it upward, while his right hand bent up and struck Drunken's head with his hammer-like elbow.

Everything happened so fast that Kataslo, whose nose was stinging and tears were streaming down his face, finally came to his senses. He heard his assistant groan, followed by a loud "thud" of two hard objects colliding.

"Phew, that's a tough head." Hasegawa Hayato finally had time to free his hand, pulled out a small knife no more than half a palm's length from his waist, and was about to plunge it into Drunken's back.

"Ah-"

The blade, capable of slicing hair in an instant, left only a scratch on his back. Sensing something was wrong, Hasegawa Hayato immediately retreated, dodging Drunken's counter-punch.

"Its skin is too tough. On the contrary, it works quite well with blunt force... I should bring a window breaker for self-defense next time." For the first time, Hasegawa Hayato felt that his old companion of many years was not very useful.

……

"Hey! We've detected the captain's location!"

The Hasegawa squad didn't stand there dumbfounded just because their captain was taken away by a UFO. Instead, they packed up their equipment and squeezed themselves into the helicopter, hoping to receive Hasegawa Hayato's location signal—their captain was always cautious and would even take that thing with him when he went home.

Sure enough, hard work pays off.

The helicopter pilot was very quick-witted; as soon as he heard that the location had been found, he took off without hesitation.

Keita Kobayashi pointed in a direction, and the helicopter flew towards the edge of the city.

The location where GUYS fought the monsters was far from the city. The pilot was obviously a little scared when he realized that he was heading towards the battlefield, but no one in the cabin said to back down, so he gritted his teeth and continued to fly.

They found their long-awaited target near the edge of the woods, not far from the road leading into the city.

"The captain's there! Zou's there too! They weren't taken by UF..."

"O took them away? Those three men in suits... gang fight?!" Yu Nayuan stuck his head out, and the man in the suit looked up and gave him a cold look, then suddenly raised his hand and pointed his palm at him.

"???"

"Get out of the way!" Keita Kobayashi practically lunged forward and pulled the control stick. Because of his action, the helicopter tilted and plummeted erratically, but the laser projectile, which should have hit the bullseye, only grazed half of the wing.

Even so, the helicopter, having lost the support of its wings, lost its balance. The pilot pushed Keita Kobayashi away and, amidst screams from the cabin, adjusted the flight attitude, turning a "fall" into a "slide." The helicopter skimmed through the branches and cut into the forest.

Glass shards were scattered all over the ground, and the landing gear was twisted into a pretzel. The pilot had been hit on the head by a branch that had reached in and was already unconscious. Sugiyama Mao gently patted the face of Yonahara Sora, who had used his body to cushion the impact, while Yamashita Rikuto came sideways from the side, grabbed his collar, and shook him violently.

"Fatty Kong, Crow Kong, Idiot! Wake up!"

Yuan Kong had only held his breath for a moment, but after being disturbed like this, he actually opened his eyes.

He exclaimed "Ah!", looked around, and called out "Captain!" as he squeezed through the door.

"You stay here," Yamashita Rikuto said to Sugiyama Mao, pointing to the unconscious driver.

The latter didn't say anything like "No, I want to go with you." After Kobayashi Keita straightened his helmet, which had been knocked askew, she followed them away and carefully climbed over to check on the driver's injuries.

Keita Kobayashi felt a bit of heat on his head; it was likely that he had scraped his skin.

What he saw next really got his blood pumping – a one-armed woman in black was chasing Aiba Kanade all over the place, and his captain was being surrounded by two yakuza, one strong and one thin!

"Get out of my way!" Yuan Kong, wielding a window-breaking hammer, exuded an aura as if he were followed by a thousand troops. The tall, burly man was clearly the main force beating up the captain. Without a second thought, he swung his hand in a wide arc...

The burly man had obviously also noticed the noisy Earthling, and he did the same thing as Kataslo before—raising his left hand, palm facing the head of the original man.

Just like Yuan Kong, who threw the window-breaking hammer at his head, but it was obviously the first time he had seen an alien concoct a light blaster in front of him at close range. He only had time to change the expression on his face to horror, but his body did not have time to make a dodging movement.

Yamashita Rikudou shoved him from behind, causing him to collide head-on with Yuan Kong, breaking half of his front tooth. Fortunately, he avoided a true "head-to-head" ending, as the light bullet grazed his head and flew into the sky.

The flying hammer struck the burly man's cheek. Kobayashi Keita swung the fire axe in his right hand over the guy who had fallen to the ground and was dressed in a suit, aiming for the neck of the guy who was disguised as an Earthling and looked very respectable!

"Zi——!"

Like striking metal, the recoil almost made Keita Kobayashi lose his grip on the axe handle. A deep gash appeared on the burly man's neck. This strike revealed the true form of the Yapool—a bright red body covered in spikes. The fire axe had pierced through the keratin of his outer shell, and blood was seeping from within.

After only a moment's hesitation, Keita Kobayashi's left hand immediately followed up with an attack. He focused on the most striking feature on the Yapool's face: its bright green, bulbous eyes. Without the protection of a stratum corneum, even a bamboo skewer stuck there would be enough to cause serious injury, let alone… Keita Kobayashi was wielding hydraulic shears.

Specially designed for demolition, made of reliable materials, and used by every rescue team member, it has received rave reviews.

Kataslo's expression was somewhat blank.

He wasn't unfamiliar with lower beings that would fight back, but this was the first time he had come into such close contact with a lower being that dared to lash out in front of him.

One of his assistants, Drunken, was now howling in pain, clutching his eyes. The lower creatures were not about to give up, and one of them suddenly made a piercing noise with something in his hand as he pressed it against Drunken's stomach.

The rescue team always carries demolition tool No. 2 and an electric drill.

One charge lasts for three days, a great helper for poaching people and breaking down walls, with countless repeat customers.

He's an expert at dismantling cement slabs, steel plates, and machine casings; now he's being used to peel off the keratinous skin of the Yabo people.

Kataslo snapped out of his daze and instinctively tried to attack the lowly creature carrying the noisy machine, but the creature that had just fallen to the ground leaped up like a frog and pounced on him. At the same time, Hasegawa Hayato also approached him from the side, holding his dagger.
