Who made him Ultraman!.
Chapter 37 The past cannot be changed, but the future can.
pat.
The cabinet in the nearby wardrobe, which should have been locked, suddenly opened for some reason, and a stack of several thousand yen notes that had been exchanged at the convenience store earlier slipped out of the inner pocket and fell to the ground.
Aizen Makoto leaned closer and asked curiously, "Is that cash? That's quite rare; I haven't seen cash in a long time."
"..." Yu Chen clenched his fist, making several crisp sounds, which startled the tycoon back.
"...?" Jugglus glanced at Yu Chen with extreme resentment.
No, what are you upset about? You're the ruler of a country, do you think money is important to you? You hold the power that the common people dream of!
If you have nothing, and the cosmic currency you accumulated as a mercenary in the past can't be used on Earth, is there any difference between you and being penniless?
Damn it, the more I think about it, the angrier I get!
Aizen Makoto is such a bastard, I really want to blow him up!
They keep criticizing the military for taking bribes, but haven't they done it themselves?
Men! What else can I say?
No way, how come someone like that can become Ultraman? What about me? What about me???
Keigo Masaki became Ultraman through the giant stone statue and ancient genes, while Makoto Aizen became Ultraman through the dark power of the Monster Medal...
The source of these people's brilliance is not pure, and they cannot be considered absolutely good people.
Are we now going to fight alongside these elites, racists, and capitalists? What kind of nonsense is this?
Jugglus rubbed his temples. Compared to his teammates in Ganon, they were much better. At least these people wouldn't surrender or watch the civilians being slaughtered.
After calming himself down slightly, Yu Chen continued, "There's one more thing. It's one thing if the military doesn't act, but why aren't the ordinary civilians doing anything? Have you given them benefits too?"
"You're not going to throw money around everywhere, are you?" Jugglus Juggler pressed.
"I... how could I possibly throw money around, Jugglus-senpai? Your words are so hurtful! There are so many people in Tokyo alone, even if you ate me, you still couldn't afford it all," Aizen Makoto hurriedly denied.
Yu Chen asked in confusion, "Then who are you...?"
Aizen Makoto raised his chin and said, "It's simple. I can manipulate the invisible hand to control the market. If those commoners dare to lay a hand on me, I'll raise the prices of their necessities! I'll make them unable to afford food, unable to afford housing, and living in poverty!"
"They don't want 500,000 yen for a loaf of bread, so naturally they'll listen to me."
"Money can generate trust and strength; it is indispensable."
As soon as he finished speaking, Aizen Makoto suddenly felt the temperature drop several tens of degrees around him. Even though he was soaking in hot water, it felt like he was in an ice cellar.
He forced an awkward smile: "I know you all probably don't approve of this, but I can't help it. I can't fight against a human being from Earth, can I? I can't just leave this universe and abandon Earth."
Jugglus Juggler suddenly stood up and looked down indifferently: "I think it's more realistic to just kill you and let me use Dark Orb's power."
Aizen Makoto turned deathly pale with fright: "Jugglus-senpai, no!"
"Among those chaebol capitalists, I'm considered pretty good, right? Aizen Technology's products are indeed very useful, and I've helped a lot of people."
"At least I didn't cancel the locals' fire insurance a month before the wildfires broke out, did I? I didn't charge people $1000 just to register for a consultation, did I? People are having a hard time, but they can still buy groceries outright."
Yu Chen felt increasingly uneasy as he listened. Wait, where did he end up? Is this still Earth? What is this "paying for groceries in full" nonsense?
Suddenly, an idea struck him. He didn't refute Aizen Makoto, even though the other party wasn't very ethical, it was indeed a good idea.
"I think this path is feasible."
"Feasible?" Jugglus looked at Yu Chen incredulously. "You've been offering the people of Ganon far better benefits! How could you agree to this? Have you betrayed us?"
Yu Chen waved his hands repeatedly: "No, listen to me carefully. Since Aizen Makoto can use material power to fight against the Kirieloids, even if his methods are rather crude, people are indeed afraid to attack him. If we change the method, Aizen Makoto can also manipulate people's hearts."
"Capital wields immense power. Just imagine, if Makoto Aizen could manipulate public opinion and the media, presenting the positive aspects of Ultraman to the public and deleting all previous content about the Kirieloids, what would happen?"
"Wait a minute, this actually seems... feasible?"
Jugglus Juggler and Aizen Makoto were not ordinary people. After Yu Chen gave them a slight reminder, they immediately realized that the mental imprint planted by the Kirieloids was not impossible to remove!
The Kirieloids can only control a limited number of humans, but the speed at which public opinion spreads is beyond their wildest imagination.
Yu Chen continued, "People have been brainwashed by the smear campaign against Ultraman over time, not controlled by the Kirieloids. No matter how much the Kirieloids boast or how grand their claims are, their true intention, and that of the Evil King, is ultimately to rule the Earth."
"Once people discover the true origin of the monsters and Ultraman's intentions, their mental imprint will waver. As I said before, building trust is very difficult, but destroying it is very easy."
"But it's not the right time yet. This trick can only be used once, to achieve a surprise victory. When that happens, I'll need you to hand over all your money. Is that alright?"
"My money?" Aizen Makoto pointed to himself.
Yu Chen nodded: "Anyway, didn't you also earn your money through exploitation? If you want to become a true hero like Hong Kai, you should know that he wouldn't do that."
"No matter what means he uses, Ultraman fights for people's happiness, not to make their lives worse."
"Take your money and distribute it as welfare so that people's basic needs of food, clothing, shelter and transportation can be guaranteed. You don't need to distribute it to everyone in the world. Giving it to one region is enough. Now we live in the Internet age. After you've spent all your money, you need to create momentum through the media and claim that this is the result of Ultraman's arrival. Public opinion will naturally ferment, and everyone in the world will see this."
"People don't care much about grand narratives; what they care about most is whether the prices of daily necessities like rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea have gone up, and whether life has improved. These are the most practical things, and the Kirieloid people can't provide them, but we, or more precisely, you, Aizen Makoto, can."
"They give a million to everyone who calls Ultraman a demon. Wouldn't they get even more if they switched sides and supported Ultraman instead?"
"There's no such thing as honorable or dishonorable methods; just like power, it all depends on where the person using it is positioned."
After hearing Yu Chen's entire line of reasoning, Ai Ran Cheng was dumbfounded, his eyes wide with disbelief: "This...this angle?"
"Hearing you say that, I suddenly feel like my image has become so noble?"
"Wait a minute, is this really Ultraman's method? Is it really okay to do this?"
If he were just Aizen Castle, an ordinary Japanese zaibatsu, that would be fine, but he is also Ultraman, and a dark Ultraman at that!
Jugglus Juggler said irritably, "Do you think this is immoral? The most important thing right now is how to rescue this planet from the enemy's hands."
Yu Chen nodded and smiled, "This saves the people from the abyss of error, and your money is truly being spent on the people."
"But my identity..." Aizen Makoto hesitated.
Seeing this, Yu Chen advised, "Even if your power came from illegitimate sources and you have done many wrong things in the past, it doesn't mean that your future will always be wrong."
"The past cannot be changed, but the future can. Please, I need your strength."
"Remember? That's something Hong Kai said too."
