Ultraman Tiga: Infinite Evolution Starting with Golza

Chapter 39 Daigo's Hesitation

After confirming that the Lightning Man's destination was Japan, the entire TPC, including the Victory Team, went on high alert!

TPC hawks, led by Yoshioka, proposed to shoot down all the Lightning Man nests currently hovering over the territory!

We'll deal with the rest later!

However, both Kei and Staff Officer Nanbara strongly opposed it.

Because at present, the Lightning Men are just gathering and have not actively caused any damage.

If you insist on attacking and provoking them, it could really turn into a war.

Of course, there is another important reason.

That is, there are no air combat weapons with sufficient firepower.

Although there are still quite a few fighter jets of the type Victory Flying Swallow No. 1 and Victory Flying Swallow No. 2, including some fighter jets left over from the old defense force era.

But it's simply impossible to shoot down the Lightning Men's lair with this kind of fighter jet!

This conclusion was reached by a large number of TPC experts after determining the location of the Lightning Man's lair and analyzing the data.

The Lightning Men's lair is unique, and because it contains a large amount of plasma and electromagnetic energy, many weapons will be ineffective against it.

Faced with the argument between the two sides, Sawai tapped the table and made her final decision.

"Provoking the Lightning Man was definitely an unwise choice."

"But we have no choice."

Hearing what Sawai said, everyone understood what he meant.

Nan Yuan sighed.

Megumi wanted to try again, "But..."

However, Sawai interrupted her directly.

"But we can't gamble with the safety of the entire nation!"

"Do you understand, Captain Kijima?"

Kijima Megumi lowered her head helplessly, "I understand."

"But we don't have enough air firepower!" someone said.

Yoshioka said with dissatisfaction, "We've been saying for a long time that we're going to build an air combat carrier, but you've been dragging your feet. If you had built it earlier, none of this would have happened!"

Since Ke Zejing has already spoken, he must have been prepared.

He crossed his arms and calmly said, "Since air firepower is insufficient, let's move the battlefield to the ground!"

"Move to the ground?"

Sawai's idea surprised everyone.

"Not bad." Sawai continued, "Deploy attack weapons in advance in uninhabited areas on the ground, and then send fighter jets into the high altitude to lure the Lightning Man into the airspace above the designated area."

"But... how do we get them down?" Nan Yuan asked, puzzled.

"Isn't the Lightning Man supposed to have a special reaction to electromagnetic waves?"

"Use fighter jets to bombard the Lightning Men's lair with massive amounts of electromagnetic waves, forcing them to absorb them and transform into Gazort."

"At the same time, electromagnetic signals are also released in the ground combat zone as decoys to lure them down!"

"Once we're on the ground, we can unleash our full potential!"

It must be said that Sawai's strategy does have room for maneuver.

Izumi was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Sawai already had a complete plan.

Seeing no one object, Sawai turned to Megumi: "The task of luring the Lightning Men to the combat zone with fighter jets and releasing electromagnetic waves at them will be handled by your GUTS team!"

"Understood," Megumi nodded in response.

After discussing a few more details, the meeting adjourned and everyone left.

Kijima returned to the Victory Team's command room and explained the contents of the meeting, as well as the tasks assigned to the Victory Team.

"Why do that? Why provoke them?!" Horii exclaimed, clutching his head in bewilderment. "Those are all the Lightning Men from around the world! If they all gather together, it's not just a simple case of Gazort!"

"That's precisely why we need to deal with them in advance and prevent them from gathering completely!" Shin-chan said loudly.

Lina was also in a bad mood. "Does war really have to solve the problem? Can't we humans coexist peacefully with those creatures?"

"But how can we coexist peacefully?" Ye Rui muttered to himself.

Horii seemed to have been enlightened by Nozue's words.

"Yes, how can we coexist peacefully?"

"Human society cannot stop using electromagnetic waves in its current state!"

"Reducing and stopping the use of electromagnetic waves sounds easy, but the question is, can humanity survive without them?"

"Once you get used to something convenient, it's hard to go back!"

"so……"

Daigo silently repeated Hori's unspoken words to himself, "So, the only option is to eliminate Lightning Man, is that it?"

But is this really the right thing to do?

Lina then said, "If that's really the case, then humanity should truly feel ashamed!"

Megumi Kiyama also said, "I really hope that humanity can become a little wiser."

Seeing the differing opinions among the crowd, Zongfang said, "Everyone has a point, but we need to face the reality of our current situation."

"These are extraordinary times. Since our mission is to protect humanity from external enemies, we should fight to the very end!"

The group nodded slightly, barely managing to unite under Zong Fang's viewpoint.

Ye Rui looked at Lina, wanting to say something more, but ultimately didn't.

……

TPC's ground forces quickly began operations, demarcating large areas from uninhabited regions such as mountains and plains within the country as combat zones and deploying heavy weapons.

During this period, Horii made some adjustments to the electromagnetic waves emitted and the decoy electromagnetic waves in the combat zone in order to achieve the best effect and better target the Lightning Man.

After the ground troops were deployed, the Victory Team set off.

Victory Flying Swallow No. 1 and Victory Flying Swallow No. 2 departed from the base simultaneously.

Because Lina was in a bad mood, she and Daigo piloted Unit 1 as assistants, while Munakata, Shinjo, and Horii piloted Unit 2, responsible for electromagnetic energy infusion.

Sitting in the cabin, Lina temporarily shut down the public communication platform and then said with a puzzled look, "Why did the monster appear? Finding out the reason and cause of the monster's appearance is the real solution to deal with it."

"Isn't that how it is?"

Daigo nodded. "You're right..."

Before Daigo could say anything more, Rena asked, "Daigo, why do you think Tiga protects us humans?"

"Such naive humans."

Daigo paused, unsure of what to say.

Because he is also human?

But why is he so hesitant in this battle?

……

Just as the Victory Team took off into the sky.

Lin Ye also woke up inside the Rainbow Magic Realm.

He had just woken up when he felt the immense power within his body.

"Was this enhancement primarily focused on strength?"
