In Ultraman: Starting with the Battle Device

So he was Apharos!

In fact, only Daigo and Megumi from the entire GUTS team knew who Alpharos was. Although some high-ranking members of TPC also knew this secret, Director Sawai kept it a closely guarded secret, making it a top secret.

However, for a period of time, Raven's information was frequently investigated, and at the time they did not know why, or why the higher-ups were so interested in Raven.

Later, with Apharos never appearing again, the investigation into Raven seemed to be completely shelved.

……

Chapter 166 A Warning from the Universe (Please give me some money, I'm doomed.)

"Sorry, I missed you guys. Are you alright?" Raven ran over and said to Jiang Qiqianhe.

Of course, only the two little kids, Ah An and Future, would believe such nonsense.

Neither Horii nor Chizuru Ezaki exposed him.

However, Horii guessed Raven's identity because he had figured it out, while Chizuru Ezaki felt that Raven must have his own secrets and thought that Raven was a strange person.

As for why people didn't think of him as Ultraman, it's because the general public has a preconceived notion that Ultraman is not human.

After all, only a very small number of people know that Ultraman is actually human, because TPC has never made much information public to the world.

"Let's get out of here first. We don't know where that monster has gone. Anyway, it's still very dangerous here," Horii said immediately.

Seeing the strange look in Horii's eyes, Raven knew that Horii must have recognized him.

After all, when he first arrived in this world, he had been investigated by the GUTS team due to his carelessness, so it's not surprising that Horii remembered him. Combined with the current events, it's easy to guess his identity.

But now was not the time to dwell on this, so they left.

At this moment, in the place where Dyna disappeared.

A bird struggled to move forward along a winding stream. But now, having been forcibly returned to its human form, its physical exhaustion was greater than ever before.

So, after walking only a few steps, he suddenly fell headfirst into the water.

The flash sword hidden in her clothes slipped into the water without her noticing and drifted away with the flowing stream.

……

"The monster that disappeared this morning in Mount Rokko in Kobe City is still missing. An evacuation warning has been issued with Osaka City as the center."

"At this time, it is impossible to predict the monster's whereabouts or location. Please stay tuned for updates."

On the television station, an anchor is reporting the latest news.

In the city, residents who heard the news became uneasy.

At this time, Raven also temporarily arrived at a hotel in Kobe City with Horii and the others.

However, Horii was soon forced to rush to the research institute in Osaka due to an unexpected situation. He had originally wanted to find an opportunity to thank Raven privately, but he had to give up on that idea.

So, after spending the night at the same hotel, Raven, having nothing else to do, spent the night playing with the two children outside. However, while he said he was playing with them, he was actually being pestered by the two mischievous kids.

Inside the TPC conference room.

This incident forced TPC's top management to take it seriously, leading to this emergency meeting.

"So, none of this was a coincidence?" Director Fukami said to everyone.

Since humanity stepped off Earth, one crisis after another has emerged, and this incident is no exception, being quite bizarre.

"I believe that someone is orchestrating all of this behind the appearance of the monsters," said Staff Officer Shiina.

"What's the basis for this judgment?" Staff Officer Gondo said dismissively.

He and Shiina's faction were different, and they both liked to find fault with each other.

Staff Officer Shiina remained unmoved by Gondo's tone and replied, "First of all, it has been confirmed that this monster shares the same characteristics as the Specia chimera that previously attacked the Mars base."

"In addition, we also received some strange messages on the PWI Institute's cosmic network."

"Strange information?" Staff Officer Miyata said in confusion.

"To be precise, it should be called a warning," Staff Officer Shiina said solemnly.

Then, a recording was played.

A cold, synthesized electronic voice said, "This is a warning. There are many different kinds of life forms in the universe. Life forms that violate the laws of the universe will inevitably be punished by extinction."

After hearing this, everyone was speechless.

Is this a threat from the universe?

"We've been threatened like this, are we just going to sit here and wait to die?" Staff Officer Gondo, no longer caring about internal strife, broke the silence and said angrily.

At the same time, Gondo was secretly delighted, because the more he was threatened, the smoother his artificial Ultraman project would go.

At this moment, no one in the meeting room spoke, after all, this matter was of great importance.

Just then, the vanished monster Jomos suddenly reappeared in Osaka.

Super GUTS was dispatched again, but this time it was divided into ground operations and air operations.

Horii and Shinjo naturally joined the ground operations as well. They also got to experience what it was like to be members of the GUTS team again after a long time.

Asuka, who had recently rejoined the team, also took up heavy weapons and tried to stop the monster's advance on the ground.

Although Jomos disdained the Kaiya Space Shield in the face of these weak gun attacks, it was still angered after the bird fired a few shells that hit it.

Already annoyed by the loss of its tail, it was provoked by Asuka and immediately unleashed a burst of electricity at him.

"Boom!"

When the electric current struck the concrete floor, the resulting explosion sent birds flying.

"Damn it!" Asuka lay on the ground, immediately wanting to pull out the Flash Sword from her clothes.

But the empty feeling when he touched it chilled him to the bone.

The Flash Sword is lost?

While he was still in a daze, Jomos attacked again.

"what!"

The bird was blown high into the air and fell to the ground in the distance.

At that moment, the Alpha and other fighter jets that arrived from the air immediately began their attack on the monster.

However, Jomoss ignored these attacks and did not intend to activate the subspace shield, simply enduring them head-on.

On the ground, Nakajima was anxious. "It's no use, there's absolutely nothing we can do!"

"Why hasn't Dyna shown up yet?"

"Don't give up! Even if you can't kill it now, there's still a chance!" Horii, who had been there before, said calmly from the side.

He had experienced far too many crises like this before, so he remained relatively calm.

Ultraman usually appears in the most desperate moments.

But that doesn't mean they should just sit around like salted fish and wait to be rescued.

That would be absolutely wrong. When you get used to being saved by others, you will become extremely vulnerable if that person leaves one day.

This is why Ultraman usually only appears at the last moment after a monster appears. This is to prevent humans from becoming dependent on them.

Therefore, Horii, who deeply understands this principle, has no intention of giving up. Because there are always things they can do.

He took something out of his backpack and handed it to Nakajima.

"It's a monster signaler!" Nakajima exclaimed in surprise.

“That’s right,” Horii replied. This was one of his proudest creations.

So they ran to a nearby tall building, intending to aim at the monster.

……

Chapter 167 Asuka Kazuma? (Please make sure to cast your votes at the end of the latest chapter.)

Meanwhile, Raven, along with the two children, Amy and Future, arrived at a beach near the hotel.

He learned from street news reports that Jomos had appeared in Osaka, but it wasn't time to make a move yet; he was waiting for Jomos to complete his evolution.

Although Jomos appeared for quite some time, neither of the two Ultramen showed up.

Fortunately, due to the timely evacuation and the monster's purposeful advance without deliberately damaging houses along the way, there have been no casualties so far.

Basically, as long as you go around it, nothing will happen.

At this moment, A'an completely dispelled his previous doubts about Raven. He believed that Raven could not be Ultraman, because if he were Ultraman, he should be eliminating the monsters now.

As a child, he only thought of this one aspect. He didn't consider that Raven's appearance would cause Apharos to disappear, and Raven's disappearance would cause Apharos to appear. He wondered if there was any causal relationship between the two.

"What's that?" At that moment, Future saw a strange thing floating towards the river.

Ah An looked over at that moment, and suddenly something seemed to be guiding him.

So he ran to an old man fishing nearby and borrowed a net, then scooped it up.

Raven immediately recognized the thing that had been pulled up – it was Asuka's Flash Sword.

Asuka is really quite careless.

"Brother, do you know what this is?" Future asked A'an.

“I have a feeling this thing is very important to Dyna,” Aya said, scratching her head.

Raven looked at A'an in surprise. How could this kid have discovered this? Could it be that the transformation device was guiding him?

“Let me see,” Raven said to Amy.

"Do you know what this is?" Although A'an felt that Raven couldn't possibly be Ultraman, he seemed unusual, so he handed the Flash Sword to Raven.

Raven didn't have time to answer him right away, because the moment he touched the Flash Sword, he suddenly felt the enormous light energy contained within it.

This power resonated with the power of light within him.

"Help me find the bird."

A voice appeared in Raven's mind; it was a steady and deep middle-aged male voice.
