Ultraman: Forced to become the Dark Boss

"Oh, that's true."

Okumura nodded as if he had just realized something, looking like he thought, "That makes perfect sense."

"... "

Kojima turned to ask Yu about the secret book and Shunling's team member.

"When will the defense forces arrive? Does the research center still have any powerful weapons?"

"It will take the defense forces at least 15 minutes for a large number of fighter jets to arrive from the air to provide support."

Sitting on a rock, holding a miniature computer, Shunling carefully raised her head and answered softly.

"I see."

Should I give them another push?

The mysterious bookkeeper, still clutching his notebook, asked.

"Hmm, fifteen minutes is too long. I wonder how long Shenying-1 can hold out."

Kojima nodded.

"There is still one Alpha Cannon in the warehouse, but it only has enough energy left to fire one Alpha Beam."

After a moment of silence, Okumura finally spoke slowly.

His expression was full of loneliness and reluctance.

If used properly, the Alpha Beam can directly and severely damage the Alpha A-type combat robot.

However, by then, the Alpha A will also be completely destroyed.

It utterly trampled on his ideals.

However, considering the safety of so many lives, some sacrifices still need to be made.

"But Noi and Muraka are still inside..."

Shunling said somewhat weakly.

"This is tricky..."

Kojima hesitated upon hearing this.

His hesitant gaze fell upon Alpha, which was being relentlessly attacked by the Divine Eagle One in the distance, along with the raging fire and ruins surrounding it.

Kojima's gaze gradually hardened.

"Pull out the Alpha Beam Cannon and prepare to fire."

Okumura looked at him intently, nodded slightly, and said, "Since you've made your decision, I won't object."

He signaled to the staff remaining beside him to contact the weapons depot and urgently move the Alpha beam cannon to a suitable location, preparing for the worst.

"Phew, it's been a long time since I've piloted a fighter jet, I didn't expect to be so rusty."

...

Inside the Divine Eagle One, Jingyuan sighed, yet remained intently focused on the Alpha Type A, which they were constantly "teasing."

Unbeknownst to them, Commander Kojima had already prepared to eliminate Alpha Type A, along with the UPIC team members.

Li Zhenna remained silent, but her eyes were like knives as she stared at the black smoke spreading over Alpha's body.

She could feel this dark power constantly growing stronger, multiplying like a proliferator thanks to this top-of-the-line human-made armed robot.

However, the source of the darkness is inside its body, meaning that an unknown darkness has invaded Alpha Type A.

Therefore, even if the Alpha A is destroyed, the true darkness and the mastermind behind it will not disappear.

"Is that you, Huixia?"

The aura that seemed to be exactly the same as Hui Xia's made Li Zhenna unable to help but have doubts.

If it really is him...

What should I do?

Any alien that harms other innocent lives is my enemy.

So, if it really is Huixia…

Mana was somewhat wavering, but her subconscious kept telling her that she had to eliminate the evil forces that were detrimental to humanity.

Even if the owner of this power is one's childhood friend.

Ultimately influenced by her personal thoughts, Mana tends to see things from a completely human perspective, which sometimes inevitably contradicts true justice.

Apart from the evil Dark Aliens, all other life forms are equal.

Unfortunately, Mana is Mana, a UPIC player, not the real Nexus.

...

Although Alpha is a machine and does not feel pain, the continuous beams of light still damaged parts of his body, making his movements stiff and sluggish.

"Perhaps we don't need to use the Alpha Beam Cannon."

Kojima was surprised by the outstanding performance of the Divine Eagle 1, but also silently breathed a sigh of relief.

Ideally, the Alpha A should not be completely destroyed. Cost is one aspect, materials are another, but the two UPIC team members inside the machine are the most crucial.

Now, all we can do is hope that the two players inside the Alpha A are safe and sound.

Otherwise, it would probably have added an unsavory chapter to Dr. Masashi Okumura's resume.

For example: "During an armed robot operation test on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, the experiment failed due to special circumstances. The robot went out of control, resulting in the tragic deaths of UPIC team members and dozens of researchers..."

Chapter 36 The Reappearance of Zetton

"The dark aura there..."

Hui Xia, who was serving a guest, put down her coffee and silently glanced in the direction of the research institute.

He then casually walked backstage.

The ring formed from the dark sparks shimmered faintly, and a card with yellow edges appeared out of thin air. At this moment, Hui Xia was facing away from the shop door, and the card was close to his chest.

"Go."

As if it understood, the Zetton card transformed into countless dark particles and disappeared.

Hui Xia smiled slightly, thinking that this would give her a perfect alibi!

...

"You think you can defeat me like this?"

Inside the cockpit of the Alfa Romeo A, Noi gripped the lever tightly with both hands, the veins on the back of his hands bulging, indicating he was exerting a great deal of force.

"Alpha Beam! Fire!"

Noi's voice, filled with gritted teeth, was incredibly clear in the cockpit where he was the only person present.

With the press of the launch button.

A powerful beam of light shot out from Alpha's chest.

Like a sweeping army, the surging light waves kicked up countless dust particles, and the scattered stone particles and debris struck everywhere, making strange noises.

A deep ravine was thus created, and countless buildings, upon being struck, barely reacted, instantly turning into ruins engulfed in flames.

Many researchers were unable to escape and watched as those familiar figures disappeared into the sea of ​​fire, causing Okumura Masashi's eyes to redden.

"Where's the Alpha Beam Cannon? Bring it over here! Since this was my mistake, it's my responsibility to fix it!"

With a resolute expression, Okumura, suppressing his grief, urged the staff beside him to hurry up.

"Yes! Our colleagues at the armory have positioned the beam cannon at the optimal firing angle, and it's ready to fire at any time!"

"Then what are we waiting for..."

Okumura's words were interrupted by Commander Kojima.

"Look at the sky!"

Okumura was slightly taken aback, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.

Seeing his old friend's solemn expression, he subconsciously looked up at the sky.

“zhidun…”

A fiery red fireball slowly descended from the sky, landing heavily amidst the complex gazes of the crowd.

"Bang!"

“peng…”

Some of the nearest buildings, utility poles, and cars were damaged.

Cars, in particular, were thrown several meters into the air by the impact before rolling over and landing, their windows shattering.

The crackling sound of electricity and the resulting flashes of light were incredibly conspicuous from the rising mist.

“zhidun…”

duang, duang.

With heavy footsteps, a familiar figure appeared before them.

Space Dinosaur, Zetton, here I come!

As soon as Zetton appeared, it attracted the attention of Alpha A. The machine, shrouded in black smoke, began to turn and move towards Zetton with stiff yet rapid steps.

“zhidun…”

For some reason, the onlookers seemed to detect a hint of disdain in Jetton's voice.

Jaden stood silently in place, only the light-emitting organs in his eyes and chest flashing incessantly, causing the chirping of insects to spread continuously.

"Monster! Die!"

"Damn it!!"

Noi roared, then slammed the control lever.
