In Ultraman: Starting with the Battle Device

Staff Officer Gondo's face turned ashen with anger as he glared at Raven's departing figure with deep resentment.

Their hard work had been destroyed so easily; it was hard to swallow this insult. But he knew he couldn't retaliate; at least for now, they didn't have the strength to openly break ties with Ultraman.

Raven arrived high in the sky, wondering where to find Masaki Keigo.

But before they knew it, they had flown over Kumamoto City.

Some things are different from what I remember. Some of the older buildings have disappeared, while others are clearly newly built and only a few years old.

But Raven didn't think too much about it. So he transformed into his human form and came to the entrance of the Cedik Technology Company building.

The building also appears to be in a lot of disrepair, suggesting that it has been abandoned for a long time.

Raven then wanted to ask someone, and saw that there seemed to be someone in the guardhouse ahead.

So Raven went to the window of the guardhouse and saw an old man in his seventies dozing off.

Raven's arrival startled him awake.

"Grandpa, can I ask you something?" Raven said politely to the gatekeeper.

"What is it?" the gatekeeper asked, yawning.

"Do you know the owner of this company, Masaki Keigo? Where is he now?" Raven asked.

"Masaki Keigo? That name sounds familiar." The old man tried hard to remember.

“I remember now, didn’t he have an accident eight years ago? I think he was one of the victims of that disaster,” the old man said.

"Disaster??" Raven was immediately puzzled.

"Don't you know? A crazy Ultraman appeared and almost destroyed Kumamoto City. That's a huge thing!" The gatekeeper looked at Raven in surprise.

"Ah, thank you then," Raven said, and quickly left.

Throughout the journey, he was very confused about what had happened here after he left.

So, upon returning home, ignoring Camilla, Raven went straight to his room and turned on his computer.

Next, he searched for keywords related to Ultraman in Kumamoto City eight years ago.

Immediately, numerous video clips and news reports appeared as a result.

So Raven clicked on a video.

"Boom!"

"Waaaaah—"

The video shows an area of ​​Kumamoto City reduced to ruins.

A familiar, enormous figure is wreaking havoc on Kumamoto City.

That figure is none other than Evil Ultraman Tiga!

Is it Masaki Keigo? Raven couldn't help but wonder.

Something just seemed off. His out-of-control demeanor suggested he had completely lost his mind!

It was as if he had gone berserk, and his body was radiating purple-black energy fluctuations. This scene seemed familiar!

"It's Garupa!"

Raven blurted out the name that hadn't been heard in a long time.

Now things are clearer: Masaki Keigo has definitely been controlled by Garuba!

Otherwise, things wouldn't be this serious.

In the video, a large part of Kumamoto City has been destroyed by the berserk evil Ultraman Tiga, and the extent of the damage is no less than that of a massive earthquake.

The defense force's fighter jets were destroyed wave after wave.

The Victory Flying Swallow was also destroyed one after another, and Tiga's body lay in the distance, unable to get up at all.

What a desperate sight that was.

Raven was deeply shocked, only regretting that he wasn't there at the time.

The final scene disappeared as Evil Tiga unleashed a beam of light. Clearly, the broadcast helicopter filming the aerial view was also destroyed.

So Raven clicked on a video from a different angle.

At this point, it was clear that the photographers all moved away, not daring to show their faces and only daring to hide and take pictures.

Evil Tiga is like a demon, killing anyone he sees.

Raven was eager to know how he was finally defeated, so he clicked on one video after another until he finally found a follow-up video that clearly captured the scene.

Fighter jets from various TPC divisions rushed to provide support, but they were all shot down like moths to a flame, proving utterly futile.

The dark energy within the evil Tiga, after being berserk by Garupa, seemed inexhaustible, making him no match for Tiga.

Unless a miracle occurs!

Yes, that's right, a miracle happened, seemingly thanks to the prayers and support of all the residents of Kumamoto City.

Ultraman Tiga stood up from the ground!

At this moment, a faint glow could be seen shining on Tiga's body.

This is probably a lower-spec version of Shining Tiga.

Even the lower-spec Shining Tiga was still an overpowered being. Thus, Evil Tiga was easily defeated.

“So that’s what happened…” Raven leaned back in his chair, speechless for a long time.

To some extent, he bears a large part of the responsibility for the devastation in Kumamoto City.

After all, Garuba was released by him by accident, which led to the incident where he controlled Masaki Keigo.

But why hasn't this guy made any further moves since then?

Given his mischievous nature, he shouldn't have remained silent for so long.

If you're unsure what to do, just ask the system.

"System, please find out where Garuba is now."

Raven immediately spoke sternly.

Back then, he was too busy avoiding Garuba to do anything, but now he has enough strength to deal with Garuba.

This guy dared to cause such a huge mess and such a tragedy while he was away.

Raven swore he would kill him!

We won't let you go, even if we chase you to the ends of the earth!

"Drip!"

"Query failed. The other party is not within this universe," the system replied.

"No way?" Raven exclaimed in surprise.

"Then, can we find out which universe he's in now?" Raven then asked.

"Beep beep, unable to find the query," the system replied quickly.

"What?" Raven was disappointed.

At that moment, he felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly, with a sense of powerlessness.

Oh well, I hope I'll run into him in another universe someday.

After calming himself down, Raven looked at the computer and opened a news article from that time.

The news report stated that Keigo Masaki, the head of Cedik Technology, was also one of the victims.

If people knew that the giant who destroyed Kumamoto City was Masaki Keigo, they would want to tear him to pieces.

……

Chapter 158 Hui, the mediator at the night party

Raven couldn't help but wonder, was Masaki Keigo really dead?

If he died, then what's the deal with these artificial Ultramen now?

"System, help me check if Masaki Keigo is alive or dead, and where he is now?" Raven continued.

"Drip!"

"Masaki Keigo is currently being held in a maritime prison within TPC," the system quickly replied.

"Just as I thought." Raven guessed that Masaki Keigo was not dead. As for the news that TPC had released that he was dead, it was probably because they wanted to imprison him for life but didn't want to explain it to the outside world, so they did it.

The artificial Ultraman we know today must have originated from Keigo Masaki's research.

"I think I'll go see him for myself." Raven then decided to take action and head to the sea prison.

But when he got up, he realized it was getting late, and Camilla was probably still waiting for him to cook. He couldn't keep eating instant noodles, so he decided to go tomorrow.

But Raven didn't want to cook, so he ordered takeout.

Raven went to the living room and sat down in an empty spot on the sofa. Camilla was lying on her side, her legs exposed up to her thighs, and her pajamas were very transparent and loose.

LSP's Raven couldn't help but steal a few glances.

“By the way, Camilla, do you know Garuba?” Raven suddenly said.

“Garuba, that seems to be a very ancient name.” Camilla frowned. “It’s probably a demon god.”

"Why are you asking this?" Camilla said.

"It's nothing, I just accidentally resurrected that guy before," Raven said with a laugh.

"I remember this guy was known as a coward among the demons. He's been hiding ever since we came to Earth, but his methods are really annoying."

"At the time, he used magic to control many mentally unstable dark giants and cosmic monsters to form an army, while he hid behind the scenes and refused to show himself. This caused us quite a bit of trouble," Camilla recalled.

"That's typical of him. Even after being resurrected, he's been hiding and causing trouble in the shadows."

"I've personally experienced his methods," Raven said, somewhat wistfully.

"This guy has run off to another universe now, who knows what kind of trouble he'll cause."
