Ultraman: Because I am Gatanothor.

"understand!"

Lina immediately piloted the Flying Swallow No. 1 to keep up with Director Zejing's pace.

Chapter 31 Variables

Just as Tiga and the Gakuma brothers were still locked in a stalemate, Director Sawai's voice came over.

He stood on the high mountain, followed by five figures: three police officers, Zongfang, and Fengdu.

Compared to the panic of the police officers, Zong Fang was much calmer; this was the third time he had faced such a behemoth.

Director Sawai was wearing a headset, and there was a megaphone next to him.

Looking at the fierce battlefield, he interrupted, "Hello! I am the leader of the Earth United Peace Organization, my name is Sawai Souichirou!"

The sound transformed into Gakuma's animal language and reached Gakuma's ears. Daigo was originally human, and although he could not speak human language now, he could understand it.

Director Sawai looked at the three enormous creatures that all turned their gazes toward him. He was startled, feeling a fear similar to that of a human facing a natural disaster, and instinctively wanted to escape.

But he forcibly cast aside these timid feelings.

He turned to the side, looked up at Tiga, a look of gratitude on his face, and exclaimed, "Giant, thank you!"

"Because of your appearance, we humans have been spared from the threat of Golza and Melba, and now you have saved the personnel on the Flying Swallow II. I once again offer my sincerest blessings!"

After speaking, Director Sawai bowed deeply. The people behind him were stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed suit and bowed deeply as well.

Daigo was startled and instinctively tried to back away.

Although he is now Ultraman Tiga, he is still the simple and kind-hearted Daigo at heart. Director Sawai has been kind to him and he absolutely cannot accept a simple bow from him.

But before he could move aside, Director Sawai had already straightened up, which made him slightly flustered.

Retreating was not an option, nor was continuing to stand there. Fortunately, Director Sawai focused his attention on the Gakuma brothers.

He shouted, "On behalf of humanity, I offer my deepest apologies for humans taking your food without asking. Please consider how we humans should compensate you!"

Director Sawai felt that it was necessary to calm the other party down first in order to have a good start and begin cooperation.

Putting everything else aside, the petrification ray that Gakuma just unleashed has profound research value for them.

It can be used not only as a means of expanding territory, but also as a weapon.

Now, Earth is facing a major catastrophe, and this petrifying ray will surely be very effective against other monsters.

Humans cannot rely solely on the protection of giants; they too must develop and become powerful.

Gakuma Alpha looked at his brother Beta.

Generally, it's its older brother who handles these kinds of issues involving humans, because it knows how cunning humans are and how easily they can be tricked.

It has suffered quite a few losses in the past.

Gakumabetta glanced at Tiga, then at Director Sawai.

A flash of understanding crossed his eyes.

'This giant must be from the human side!'

Thinking of this, it began to consider the gains and losses, wondering how it could benefit from humans without incurring the giants' hostility.

Suddenly, the situation on the scene changed dramatically.

A purplish-black vortex appeared in the sky, from which countless bolts of lightning shot out and struck the ground.

The immense force blasted a crater tens of meters deep into the ground.

Everyone was so shocked by this scene that they were in a flurry of activity.

Inside the command center, Nori hurriedly shouted, "Director Sawai, Lina, get out of there quickly! The energy there is rising rapidly and has reached the critical point for an explosion!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions drastically.

His face instantly contorted with terror. Director Sawai didn't try to be brave and, with the help of three police officers, quickly left the area.

But it was too late.

A bolt of purple lightning emerged from the vortex and struck directly at the location of Director Sawai and his group.

Feng Du's expression turned serious, and he was about to use his dark power to block the attack.

But before he could even activate the power within him, he saw Tiga rush in front of them, raise his hands, and a seven-colored barrier appeared out of thin air to block the attack.

Director Sawai's people all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.

One of the police officers murmured, "Phew... we survived!"

"Thank you, giant!"

Daigo nodded to the people below, then looked up at the vortex that was constantly rotating counterclockwise, which contained a terrifying aura that even he could feel.

The two Gakuma brothers also unconsciously stood beside Tiga, wanting to fight together against the vortex that had just appeared.

The atmosphere there made them feel an unprecedented sense of crisis, as if the vortex had appeared specifically for them.

As Fengdu followed Director Sawai in their retreat, he turned to look at the sky.

The weather, which was sunny just moments ago, is now covered with dark clouds, and the surrounding environment has become unusually gloomy.

"variable!"

He uttered a single word.

The world has undergone other changes because of his actions.

However, as far as Kaede knows, in the Ultraman universe, justice will ultimately defeat evil—this is an ironclad rule.

He dared not overuse the power of darkness, for fear that the world consciousness would amplify Tiga's power, ultimately leading to his death at Tiga's hands.

But now, why has another powerful dark force appeared?

One dark force is enough for this world; why need another?

He glanced down at the progress bar in his hand.

2%

In less than a week, it increased by one percent, which was much faster than before. However, he was still uneasy because the progress bar was not yet 100%.

This "God's Right Hand" can be considered his last trump card; without this trump card, he feels insecure.

Not only did Megumi and Daigo have nightmares last night, but he did too.

In his dream, he was blasted into dust by Shining Tiga, and was beyond dead.

That's what prevented him from causing trouble today.

Dark power surged in his eyes, and the scene within the black vortex appeared before him.

Although the vortex was pitch black, and even the illumination of purple lightning could not reveal its interior, Feng Du was able to see the other side of the vortex.

On the other side was a landscape completely different from Earth, filled with scorching lava and devoid of any light in the air.

The light comes from the red glow emanating from the magma.

What's most terrifying is that there are countless monsters there.

From his perspective, it was as if he saw countless ants, densely packed together in a valley, with several giants of light standing in front of them.

Although the two sides are locked in a standoff, the disparity in numbers is too great.

With such a small number of Giants of Light, they simply cannot defeat so many monsters.

There were at least a hundred monsters, roughly estimated.

He also witnessed the formation of this black hole.

He is a giant who looks remarkably like Ultraman Tiga, but his body is silver-blue, he has two armor plates on his shoulders, and a diamond-shaped crystal on his forehead.

A distorted wave of light appeared on his right hand, confronting a monster with sharp horns.

A black hole has appeared behind the monster, swallowing it whole, while the monster clings tightly to the ground, resisting the suction force.

The immense dark power was formed from the resentment emanating from the monsters as they gathered together.

However, it was swallowed by the black hole and sent to Fengdu and his group.

That's why such a massive dark power appeared on their side; after all, it was formed by the convergence of more than a hundred monsters.

Upon seeing this, Fengdu looked completely bewildered.

'Good heavens, that idiot Dyna actually opened a black hole this far!'

But as far as he knew, Dyna's Black Hole Ray was a move that sent monsters into a black hole and used the terrifying destructive power caused by the collapse of space to kill the opponent.

How come a hole was opened on their side instead?

But now is not the time to think about these things. We must close this black hole, otherwise the endless stream of resentment will easily pollute this world.

Thinking of this, a flash of darkness appeared in his eyes.

Using the unclaimed resentment, a tentacle was formed, extending backward to pull the monster into the black hole.

In the Great Monster Graveyard, Dyna watched as the monsters, empowered by Belial's dark power and the Plasma Spark Tower, were locked in a stalemate with him.

He was almost in a red light situation when, unexpectedly, the other party was pulled directly into the black hole by an unknown force.

'Could it be that the other side of the black hole is a monster-infested region from another parallel universe?'

Thinking of this, his eyes lit up. If he ever faced such an unsolvable monster in the future, he could use the Liporum Wave to send it to that place and let them kill each other.

Let them fight like dogs, and get rid of all their fur.

Thinking of this, he silently memorized the coordinates, then closed the black hole and turned to look at the massive horde of monsters.

'But we can't send them all over at once, that would easily cause them to band together, and might even increase the dark forces in that area!'

Sending one after a while is fine; monsters are always afraid when they first arrive in a strange place, causing them to attack everything in their path.

This makes it very easy for it to be targeted and killed by local forces.

However, the monsters he sent over were quite powerful, which actually helped to weaken the monsters in that area and reduce their numbers.

In short, he felt he had another way to deal with his opponent.
