Ultraman cubs begin to wreak havoc.

So the senior agents put aside their concerns about the matter and went about their own business, patiently waiting for the results from the interrogation room.

However, what they didn't know was that if the coordinates of the position Barbatos was looking at were plugged into a specific calculation formula, a loophole in the cosmic barrier would be discovered.

At this very moment, on the other side of that breach in the barrier, Ultraman Geno was hovering there. Now that he had completed the collection of various data, he began to try to open the spacetime vortex to see where Max had been sucked in.

But just as he was trying to activate the spacetime vortex, a terrifying figure suddenly rushed out from it, surrounded by ominous black energy. Ultraman Geno immediately dodged to the side, then frowned slightly. This... if he wasn't mistaken, it should be a negative energy monster, right?

After Ultraman Leo left Earth, the planet entered a brief period of peace.

However, this peace only lasted five years. Under the influence of negative energy, monsters might reappear on Earth. Therefore, Eddie, as a negative energy investigator from the Land of Light, came to Earth to track them down.

After conducting an investigation, Eddie was very worried that the ugly mentality of human beings would lead to the gradual increase of negative energy and cause the monsters to reappear. At the same time, in order to enable children to distinguish between justice and evil from an early age, Eddie transformed into a young human named Yagi Takeshi and became a middle school teacher, hoping to curb the generation of negative energy through education.

However, such actions are like trying to put out a fire with water from afar; the negative energy monsters eventually appeared. These monsters are created from negative human emotions, such as sadness, anger, and resentment. They can attach themselves to the surface of objects and the bodies of living beings, and their power and abilities are usually greater than those of ordinary monsters.

Ultraman Ace exerted a great deal of effort to suppress the surge of negative energy monsters, allowing Earth to safely pass through that dangerous period.

After that, the number of times negative energy monsters appeared was relatively small. If it weren't for Ultraman Geno's experience as a civilization observer who had encountered negative energy monsters before, he really wouldn't have recognized them at this moment.

Speaking of which, this monster is somewhat similar to the [Negative Energy Monster - Telekinetic Monster - Zaruton]. It is a monster that uses its incredible mental power to teleport objects instantly. It is also an extremely cruel carnivorous monster that feeds on humans and is not satisfied until it has devoured twenty humans at a time.

This Zaruton is quite cunning. It usually hides in a secluded place and sleeps to enhance its mental strength. But even while sleeping, Zaruton can teleport people to its location. To prevent people from escaping, it uses hypnosis to put them to sleep, then eats them after they wake up. Zaruton uses this method to continuously enhance its mental and physical strength.

While Ultraman Ace was stationed on the island nation of Earth, Zaruton first committed crimes all over Europe, attacking many human settlements and engaging in several battles with the European Defense Force bases before eventually fleeing to the island nation to hide.

However, Junkichi Ito, the director of the European base, carefully studied Zaruton's teleportation ability and came up with a solution. After being transferred to the island nation, he taught the method to the members of the island base and attempted to encircle and destroy it.

However, due to the recklessness of the island nation's base members, Zaruton was accidentally awakened. The enraged Zaruton began to wreak havoc on the city. At the same time, Zaruton used the teleportation wheel to move a large number of city buildings away, either dropping them from the air or directly into the sea, causing a large number of casualties. This also made it difficult for the fighter jets that came to fight to defend themselves and unable to launch an offensive.

Fortunately, Itoh's method could break the teleportation effect of the light wheel, which turned the tide of the battle. Upon discovering that his ultimate move had been broken, Zarudon became even more ferocious and turned to use the destructive beam to destroy the city.

At this moment, Ultraman Ace transformed and appeared, beginning his battle with Zaruton. He gained a significant advantage in close combat, and after being suppressed by Ultraman Ace's fighting style, Zaruton immediately distanced himself and launched a counterattack with his Destruction Beam and Instant Teleportation Wheel. However, Ultraman Ace used the [Halo Mirror] to deflect the Instant Teleportation Wheel and teleported Zaruton into another dimension.

Subsequently, Ultraman Ace used Ultra Teleportation to enter another dimension and continue attacking Zaruton. In the instant Zaruton showed an opening, Ace used Ultra Double Light Arrow to sever the horns from which Zaruton fired its beam. Zaruton was severely injured and rendered unable to fight, ultimately being killed by Ace's Sakushuum Ray.

The figure that had just emerged from the spacetime vortex immediately reminded Ultraman Geno of this guy. After all, Max had once discussed negative energy monsters with him, and this guy, whom Ultraman Ace had already defeated, was someone he deeply hated, wishing he could personally go and beat him up...

No! This is [Negative Energy Monster - Telekinetic Monster - Zaruton]!

Just as Ultraman Geno was immersed in his memories, he suddenly saw the monster's face emerging from the ominous black mist. It looked exactly like the one recorded in the file!

Wait a minute, it's already been destroyed. Due to its unique nature, it's rare for two identical negative energy monsters to appear. Could this... be that spacetime vortex from before, which involved the existence of the [past]?

A multitude of possibilities flashed through Ultraman Geno's mind, but regardless, the priority was to eliminate this guy first! He couldn't let something so dangerous escape his grasp...

Tsk!

Just as Ultraman Geno got into position, ready to fight, the negative energy monster seemed to sense something, suddenly turned and ran away, showing no intention of fighting Geno. Moreover, it was quite fast, and Geno, who was late to the game, felt like he was about to lose the chance to catch up.

Just then, a bluish-white light projectile shot out, blocking the path of the negative energy monster...

413 Triga Heads to the Land of Light (Fourth Update)

Upon seeing the bluish-white light blast, Geno was slightly taken aback. He looked up and saw that the Ultra Warrior who had arrived was someone he didn't recognize. He probably wasn't from the Land of Light. But regardless, since the Ultra Warrior had helped him stop the negative energy monster, he was now his good comrade-in-arms. Whether they introduced themselves or just chatted, they had to deal with the monster first!

Because of the existing records of Ultraman Ace, dealing with this negative energy monster was not a difficult task. With the help of others, the battle was over in no time.

"Phew... thankfully it didn't escape."

Jeno let out a long sigh of relief. He looked at the Ultra Warrior who was also relieved, smiled, extended his hand, and said softly:

"Thank you for your help. I am Jeno, and I belong to the Space Garrison of the Land of Light in the M78 Nebula. My position is Planetary Civilization Monitor. I really owe you a lot just now. Otherwise, that negative energy monster might have really escaped."

"No need to thank me, it was nothing."

The newcomer quickly grasped Jeno's hand, smiling excitedly as he said:

"I am Kenshin, also known as Ultraman Triga. I am an Ultraman warrior from another universe. Um, you are a member of the Land of Light, right? Great, I have finally found you."

"Huh? Ultraman Triga, what happened?"

Geno hadn't expected this situation and hurriedly asked what was going on. Kenjiro immediately explained the situation to him. Upon hearing that Belial was not dead, Ultraman Geno's expression immediately turned serious. This was something that absolutely could not be underestimated and had to be reported to the Land of Light. Although... there was no other way. "I'm sorry, Max, please hang in there a little longer. I will bring people back to help you!"

The disaster Belial unleashed was so terrifying that even now, children in the Land of Light cry at the mere mention of his name. Geno believed that once Max escaped and learned of this sudden event, he would surely forgive him; it had taken him a long time to recover from the blow Belial had dealt him…

Suddenly I feel like Max got the short end of the stick this time. He didn't even get to defeat that negative energy monster, so he probably won't make it in time to take down Belial.

With this in mind, Geno and Triga immediately headed towards the Land of Light. During their journey, Kengo saw the point where he had broken through to this cosmic plane, only to realize that he was completely heading in the wrong direction, almost going in the opposite direction...

This is so embarrassing... let's just pretend it never happened.

"Um, was it Subaru who defeated Belial? Is he... alright now?"

At this moment, Ultraman Geno, who was leading the way, suddenly spoke. Kenjiro was slightly taken aback, then said softly:

"Ah, Belial has been defeated by Subaru-senpai. Although we don't know where he eventually moved the battlefield, there is no danger on Earth now."

"That kid is really strong."

Ultraman Geno murmured with some emotion, then said to Satoru Shinnaka:

"I don't know if Seven is still in the Land of Light. If he is, he might be quite emotional. You should prepare yourself mentally. Don't worry, Seven won't hurt you. He's just encountering this situation for the first time and is unsure what to do."

"Huh? Ah...."

These words left Jianwu completely bewildered. He remained silent for a moment, but couldn't help but say:

"I don't know that Seven..."

"The one who will rush over and grab your shoulder in a moment is you, and then you'll naturally recognize Triga."

"Oh...."

Listening to Geno's words, Kenjiro felt that the Ultra Warrior from the Land of Light had a rather subtle attitude towards Subaru. However, he then thought that Belial called Subaru his son, and judging from Ultraman Geno's reaction just now, Belial's reputation in the Land of Light must be quite bad. Thinking about it this way, could it be that Subaru-senpai was also implicated because of this?

Thinking about this, Kengo Shinichi couldn't help but scratch his head. To be honest, now that he thought about it carefully, he knew very little about Subaru's past. It wasn't a complete blank, but it was basically clean. As a result, he had no idea how to help Subaru solve any potential problems.

Thinking of this, Kenjiro sighed deeply. Hearing this, Ultraman Geno assumed that Kenjiro was worried about Belial, so he gently comforted him, saying:

"Don't worry too much. That kid, Subaru... Although it's heartbreaking, he has never disappointed in terms of combat. Even Belial would have no chance of defeating him. When our Land of Light was corrupted by Primal Energy, he almost single-handedly took on the entire Land of Light and saved us. In that situation, even if you replaced Belial, it would have been impossible to do that."

"Huh?!"

Kenjiro Shinichi's eyes widened. On his way to find the Land of Light, he had heard about what kind of existence the Land of Light was. He thought that if an Ultra Warrior like himself stood on a rooftop, he could just throw a brick and hit several of them. He believed that the Land of Light was filled with nothing but Ultra Warriors.

Is this the Land of Light that was single-handedly defeated by Subaru-senpai?

In that instant, Kengo Shinichi felt a sense of surrealism, and then he sincerely thanked himself for his luck in his previous life. It was fortunate that he encountered Subaru when he was in a bad state, and it was fortunate that Subaru left the ancient Earth after obtaining his new form to pursue the enemy. Otherwise, there would have been no chance for him to be reincarnated, and Triga's ashes would have been completely digested by nature.

"Speaking of which, why does your Land of Light seem to be quite familiar with Subaru-senpai?"

Now that they had a common topic, Kenjiro Shinaka started talking. He remembered that Subaru Genzo had once said that he was an Ultraman of Earth, a light nurtured by Earth. He had basically never left Earth in the first half of his life and had always fought alone, with only the Earth Defense Force as his teammates. Therefore, Kenjiro Shinaka was really puzzled. After all, judging from the tone of this Ultraman Genzo, he seemed to know Subaru Genzo quite well, which was somewhat contradictory to Kenjiro Shinaka's understanding.

414 Child-rearing Tips from the Land of Light (Fifth Watch)

"Well... as long as Subaru is willing, he can become a member of the Land of Light at any time."

Geno paused for a moment, then sighed with some regret and said softly, "Many people in the Land of Light already know about Genji's choice. After the separation in the Gridman universe, Father of Ultra returned to the Land of Light and temporarily sealed Genji's file. This means that from then on, Genji was no longer a known person in the Land of Light."

Seven was quite saddened by this. According to Max, Seven and his wife had a huge collection of children's toys at home, whether from the Land of Light, Earth, or other cosmic civilizations. It was a huge warehouse full of them. They were just waiting to coax Subaru back to his heart. They didn't even need to transfer his household registration to the Land of Light. They could just come and stay in the Land of Light for a while every now and then.

Furthermore, if I'm not mistaken, it's not just Seven, but also Jack, Ultraman, and others who often chat with Ace and Taro, and the topics they discuss are all related to children.

After all, among the Ultra Brothers, Seven, although married, wouldn't share any parenting experience, and his parenting experience is rather unorthodox and not very useful. Ace, although unmarried, raised Zeta on his own, so he must have experience in how to take care of children. As for Taro, there's no need to say more; among the Ultra Brothers of the Land of Light, he is the most proper example of raising children. It would be a shame not to learn from him.

It's only because Zoffy has been frequently on missions lately that he's been questioned so much; otherwise, he would definitely be asked questions all the time.

However, when it comes to raising children, Ace gets a real headache. To be honest, he doesn't remember being that naughty when he was a child. Zoffy didn't have it so hard when he was raising him either. How come Zeta is so troublesome?

Ace still remembers that such a tiny baby in the Land of Light would have just been taken out of the nutrient tank and was lying in a cradle sucking his fingers. But Zeta was different. This child would not lie obediently in the cradle. He crawled everywhere. He would put his little hands on the ground and start moving his limbs. He would crawl into any available space. If there was no space anywhere, he would just find a direction and crawl in.

Ace would never forget that afternoon. He had just finished his instruction work at the training ground and had chopped down over a hundred super beast targets in one go. He felt incredibly refreshed. As soon as he opened the door, Ace glanced around the house and then decisively closed the door again.

Ace looked left and right, up and down, and no matter how he looked at it, there was no doubt that this was his home.

So....

Here's the problem...

What's wrong with my house?

Did Taro come to my house to practice his Ultra Bomb?

Looking at the mess in his house, Ace was stunned. He immediately rushed upstairs to the nursery where Zet was. Sure enough, the crib was overturned.

Although Ace found it hard to believe, he immediately pulled up the home security camera footage—

Ace's house didn't originally have this. To be precise, the Land of Light didn't have this kind of surveillance except for those important places. Even the surveillance in those important places was only installed after Belial and Zero touched the Plasma Spark Tower, and it was after the Ultra Brothers discussed it internally.

Ace installed this at home mainly because he learned it from Earth. On one hand, Ace was not married and lived alone. If necessary, he could use the terminal to check on Zeta's situation. On the other hand, he originally planned to store the video so that when Zeta grew up, they could watch it together and see how cute he was as a child.

What was unexpected was that the first time the surveillance video was accessed after the camera was installed, it was because Zeta had apparently wrecked the house.

After all, Ace never imagined that some alien would come to the Land of Light to ransack his home and even snatch his child. Wasn't he afraid of being cornered at his doorstep by the Ultra Brothers?

Then, Ace saw Zeta crawling all over the house at an astonishing speed, knocking over things, getting crushed underneath, but without crying or stopping, she twisted her chubby body to squeeze out from underneath and then continued crawling.

Finally, Ace found Zeta in the underground storage room. Looking at Zeta struggling against the basement wall and then at the basement door that Zeta had smashed through, the Ultra Warrior couldn't help but sigh, "This kid is really tough."

Ace carried Zeta out of the basement, gave him a thorough wash, and then took him to the Silver Cross headquarters for a check-up. After confirming that he was not injured, he returned home, put Zeta back in his crib to rest, and then went to tidy up the messy house.

As Ultraman...
