New Ultraman: Monster Training Master

Back in the secluded room, Dan Moroboshi asked, "Ultraman Agul, is that what you call him?"

"Judging from your tone in the fighter jet, you seem to know him quite well."

Hoshikawa looked helpless and sat down on a chair.

"I know what you want to say, it's nothing more than to let Agul's human form join the Horror Squad."

"But unfortunately, even if he hadn't believed the prophecy, Fujimiya Hiroshi still wouldn't have joined the Horror Squad."

Fujimiya Hiroshi was also a person who liked to be alone and didn't like to be tied down.

"Hiroya Fujimiya! That genius scientist, a member of Alchemy Star, he's actually the human form of Ultraman Agul." Dan Moroboshi was filled with shock.

If it were Fujimiya Hiroya, he would understand Hoshikawa's words.

It is absolutely impossible for such a genius to join the Huowei team.

Dan Moroboshi: "What do you mean by saying that Hiroya Fujimiya believed the prophecy?"

"Sigh..." Hoshikawa sighed, "You should also know that Alchemy Star created a super optical quantum computer called Chrysis."

"Crisis predicts that Earth will be destroyed by the Root Destroyer in the future, and the only way to save Earth is to eliminate humanity."

"Hiroya Fujimiya, who believed the prophecy, is looking for a way to wipe out all of humanity on Earth."

"Nonsense! How can the human form of Ultraman believe the predictions of a computer?" Dan Moroboshi shouted.

Dan Moroboshi immediately set off to find Hiroya Fujimiya, intending to use two Ultra Slaps to wake him up.

Hoshikawa: "See, you're getting impatient again."

He told Dan Moroboshi that the way to awaken Hiroya Fujimiya was simple: have the media report that the data on Krisis had been tampered with and that the so-called prophecy was false.

In the original storyline, [Klaus Ekater], who was bribed by the Root Destruction Entity, modified Krysis's data and subsequently left Alchemy Star.

Dan Moroboshi: "What if he doesn't believe me?"

Xingchuan shook his head: "He will verify it himself, and then he will naturally understand that what we said is true."

After figuring out how to awaken Hiroya Fujimiya, Dan Moroboshi contacted TV Tokyo directly and asked them to write a report about Chrisis.

As soon as Hoshikawa returned to the command room, he overheard Yuka and Aihara Ryu discussing why the Gorzan that appeared in Japan would protect the city, while the one in Mongolia would not.

Fumio Kishida: "In my opinion, it must be because the desertification of Mongolia is too severe, and the people living there are angry."

Ryu Aihara: "No, no, no, I think it's simply Japan's Gorsanzen."

"It is precisely because it is good that it protects the city."

Yuka Ota: "I really hope that monsters on Earth can coexist with humans."

Kishida waved his hand: "That's impossible. Even if the monsters don't provoke humans, with rapid development, the monsters' territory will shrink, and eventually they will still fight with humans."

In his view, a world where humans and monsters coexist simply does not exist; if it does, it must exist only in fairy tales.

Yuka: "That's true. It would be great if there were a planet where no humans bother us and only monsters live."

Hoshikawa thought of the planet Julang, a planet inhabited only by monsters.

I wonder if there is a 'compassionate' Ultraman Cosmos in this world.

"Huh, Hoshikawa's phone search history only contains the keyword 'urban legend'."

As Yuka walked past Hoshikawa from behind, she inadvertently glanced at the search history on her phone.

Hoshikawa: "It's nothing, I'm just simply interested in urban legends."

Most of the urban legends in the Ultraman world are related to monsters.

When the topic of urban legends came up, Kishida became interested: "Speaking of urban legends, there's a post that's been going viral online lately, have you heard of it?"

"I know, I know." Aihara Ryu moved his chair to the middle, his tone turning somber: "I heard that in a certain hospital, the corpses in the morgue come back to life at one o'clock in the morning."

"These bodies have no destination; they wander aimlessly on the road."

Kishida: "That's not right. What I came across was the legend of the wax figure. It's said that at night, a woman dressed in white, with one normal face and the other a wax figure face, will turn people wandering the streets into wax figures."

Hoshikawa thought with a strange expression: The white-clad woman who can turn people into wax figures is not an urban legend, but a Black Flower Alien [Atra Alien].

However, the only thing that puzzled him was that the Black Flower Alien in "Ultraman Leo" killed half the people in the city as soon as he made his move.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be something like an urban legend.

Just then, the phone on the table rang. After answering it, Yuka told everyone that a resident had reported seeing a monster.

After putting the phone back, Yuka Ota returned to the computer and displayed the address on the big screen: "A child said he saw a monster at Mount Ryugangake."

Ryugaksan...

Upon hearing this place name, Hoshikawa recalled the content of the first episode of "Ultraman Max," where the lava monster [Grangon] appeared at Mount Ryugan.

Kishida stroked his chin: "Another child. If I remember correctly, the last time it was a child named Ichiro who saw the crow man."

"In the end, it was the kids who spotted the monster first. Honestly, the radar in the base is no match for a kid's eyes."

"I'll go and investigate in person." Hoshikawa got up and walked outside.

Whether there are monsters or not, we'll have to go and find out.

······

Inside the shelter.

"Really, I really saw a monster. Its eyes were this big."

Shota kept gesturing to the police about the size of the famous monster's eyes.

The policeman sighed and adjusted his hat, saying, "While the place is indeed called the Dragon's Cave, dragons only exist in legends."

Shota: "It's not a dragon, it's a monster."

"Sorry, this child is talking nonsense." Shota's parents ran over and pulled him away.

Second-rate--

The patrol car of the police was parked in the open space.

When Shota saw the patrol car, he broke free from his parents' hands and ran towards it.

As soon as Hoshikawa got out of the car, Shota grabbed his hand: "You're a member of the Horror Team, right? I saw a monster at Mount Ryugan, really, in that cave."

Hoshikawa: "Could you tell me the location of the cave? I'll go take a look."

A police officer standing nearby saw Shota holding Hoshikawa's hand and came over to say, "This child is talking about a cave located halfway up the mountain, which the locals call the Dragon Cave."

"He was probably frightened by an unfamiliar animal while exploring the cave, which is why he said there was a monster."

Hoshikawa: "It's alright. Investigating whether monsters exist is also part of my job."

Having determined the location of the cave, he slung a large laser gun over his shoulder and began his ascent.

During the climb, the crater of Mount Ryugak erupted with lava again, accompanied by a roar.

Upon hearing the sound, Shota, who was at the foot of the mountain, jumped up excitedly: "See, I told you there was a monster!"
