Do you like humans that much, Chihaya Aine?

　"Bastard monster! Come on, Ultraman."

　In response to the monster's anger and out of gratitude to Ultraman, people's cheers reached Aine's ears, but at this time Aine had no way to deal with it.

　This time she couldn't just burst out with powerful fighting power and destroy the volcano bird Barton in one fell swoop. Mefilas had warned Aine not to use light skills.

　The two red balls near the mouth of the volcano bird Barton are poison sacs. Once the poison sacs burst, the toxin that even Ultraman cannot resist will kill everyone around him.

　This was the first time that Aine encountered such a difficult enemy. She couldn't use beam skills to destroy the monster, but in close combat she had to be wary of Patton's beak. Once it pierced her, she would lose her combat effectiveness.

　No wonder two Ultramen died at the hands of the Volcano Bird Barton. Now Aine knows how difficult this monster is to deal with. It is basically a hedgehog, making it impossible to deal with it.

　"Oh, that's right, the Ultra Bracelet."

　Aine remembered the secret weapon that Ultraman left for her. At this time, she should borrow the power of other Ultramen, just like when she dealt with Alien Knuckle and Black King at Tokyo Skytree.

　At this time, which Ultraman would respond to Chihaya Aine's request? Sensing the crisis Aine was facing, an Ultraman responded to her wish.

　An Ultra Card appeared in front of Chihaya Aine, with a Meteor Medal on his chest. It was Ultraman Zoffy who responded to Chihaya Aine's request.

　"Ultraman Zoffy..."

　The moment she got the Ultra Card, the name of this Ultraman appeared in Aine's mind, and she inserted the Ultra Card into the Ultra Bracelet.

　"Ultraman Zoffy, please lend me your power."

　Ultraman is materialized, and the Ultraman in the Ultraman Card is materialized into a physical entity to assist in the battle. This is the latest technology of the Land of Light and the masterpiece of Ultraman Guang.

　Although the Ultra Manifestation technique can temporarily borrow the power of other Ultramen, the cost is quite high.

　To materialize an Ultraman, Chihaya Aine needs to divide half of the energy of the transformed Ultraman. Her original time of transforming into Ultraman was only three minutes, but now the fighting time is as short as one and a half minutes.

　Shortening the battle time was not good for Aine, but no matter what, she had to find a way to turn the situation around since she was at a disadvantage.

　The Ultra Card fusion was activated, and the figure of Ultraman Zoffy materialized next to Ultraman. Now is the time for Ultraman Zoffy to wash away his dark history as Captain Flamehead.

　Without hesitation, Ultraman Zoffy rushed forward and allowed the beak of the volcano bird Barton to pierce his body, but... it was useless!

　Haha~ You didn't expect that, right? Because it was Ultraman Zoffy who was materialized by the Ultra Card, his body was made up of energy, not Ultraman Zoffy himself, so the poison of the Volcano Bird Batton was ineffective.

　Now is the time for that adult to clear his name.

　Volume 1: 56. Not Fearing Death

　Reversed the disadvantage, glorious Ultra group fight, Ultra 1V2!

　Ultraman Zoffy, who was materialized by the Ultra Card, served as the front-line meat shield. The beak attack and poison of the Volcano Bird Batton were completely ineffective against him, while Ultraman attacked with his fists and feet, maximizing his output.

　But...the volcano bird Patton has thick skin and tough muscles. If you want to kill it with fists and kicks, you have to ask Ultraman Leo to do it.

　At this moment, the timer on Ultraman's chest turned red and began to flash as a warning.

　"One minute. You have one minute left to fight. If you can't defeat the Volcano Bird Patton, run away."

　"You're kidding! I won't run away."

　Aine couldn't bear to hear Mefilas say that. If she ran away, what would happen to the people around her? She couldn't even imagine how many casualties the monster would cause.

　"So what do you want to do? I should have warned you that using the wrong method to kill the volcanic bird Barton would only bring greater disaster and more casualties."

　"The toxins are contained in the two sacs near its mouth, right? Can we attack directly there?"

　"That's quite naive. Do you think that just tearing off its venom sac will solve the problem?"

　"The toxin of the volcano bird Patton is an oily liquid, but it vaporizes instantly when it comes into contact with air. That's why you are forbidden from using light to destroy monsters."

　Now Aiyin understood that once the venom sac of the Volcano Bird Barton was broken, the toxin would spread into the atmosphere. This was no longer an ordinary tricky problem.

　"What should I do? What should I do..."

　Time passed by second by second. Although Ultraman and Zoffy were suppressing the volcano bird Patton and beating him up, Aiyin became more and more anxious. She only had forty seconds left to fight.

　.

　The red light of the timer on her chest flashed faster and faster, and time was becoming more and more urgent. Chihaya Aine finally made a decision.

　Ultra Binding Ray is a ray skill that can entangle and bind the enemy. Ultraman directly used this move to entangle the volcanic bird Batton, and then flew towards the sky and into the universe.

　The materialized projection of Ultraman Zoffy also understood Chihaya Aine's determination at this moment. He accumulated power on the ground and made the M87 ray gesture.

　"How high should we fly, how far off the ground, so that the toxins of the volcanic bird Barton will not harm people?"

　"Chihaya Aine, don't you want to live anymore?"

　"But if I stop, more people will die."

　"Chihaya Aine, I really underestimated your awareness. Then fly, fly into space!"

　As long as the toxins of the volcanic bird Patton do not come into contact with the air, they will not gasify and spread. Monsters born on Earth rely on the Earth's environment to cause the greatest harm.

　"Universe...Here I come"

　The red light on his chest flashed faster and faster, Ultraman was getting farther and farther away from the ground, and the volcano bird Barton's struggle became stronger and stronger, and the binding light could no longer entangle it.

　Seeing the volcanic bird Barton breaking free from the binding light, Chihaya Aine gritted her teeth and Ultraman directly resisted it with her body.

　The result was obvious, the terrifying beak pierced Ultraman's body, and the deadly poison instantly made Aine lose her sanity.

　Severe pain! Unbearable pain all over my body! Ultraman is also a creature that can feel pain and die. Ultraman is not an omnipotent god.

　Chihaya Aine understood this more deeply at this moment, but... she couldn't let go. Ultraman hugged the volcano bird Barton tightly, allowing its beak to pierce her body on her back. She absolutely couldn't let go now!

　Finally, Chihaya Aine saw the universe. Although it was night in Japan, she could actually see the sun in the universe.

　The extremely warm sunlight shone on Ultraman's body, and the red light that had almost been completely extinguished began to flash powerfully again.

　Ultraman let go of his hand, and the Volcano Bird Batton spread its wings. It angrily wanted to kill Ultraman in front of it, but... a devastating ray of light shot out from the earth and hit the Volcano Bird Batton heavily.

　The next moment, beautiful fireworks exploded in the universe, and Ultraman's body fell weakly towards the earth.

　High in the sky, Ultraman, who had lost consciousness, turned his body into golden light and dissipated, and Chihaya Aine, who had transformed back into her original form, fell towards the earth.

　But in mid-air, Chihaya Aine seemed to be caught by someone, and she just floated in the sky and fell into a deep sleep in pain.

　"Well done, Chihaya Aine."

　Mephilas appeared and caught Aine with telekinesis. Looking at Aine who was suffering from the poison of the volcanic bird Barton and was in great pain even in her unconscious coma, Mephilas shook his head.

　"Sleep well, you did very well."

　.....

　The next day, at the Tokyo University Hospital, the best hospital in Japan, Shiina Riki hurried into the ward.

　"Chihaya Aine, what's going on? Why are you in the hospital?!"

　"Ah... Sorry Auntie, I'm sorry for disturbing you."

　When Riki broke into the hospital ward, he saw a woman with the same hair color sitting next to Aine's bed, and he knew that this woman was most likely Chihaya Aine's mother.

　"It's okay. I'm happy to see Aine's friends come to visit her. As for why this child Aine is in the hospital."

　"Let me explain."

　Mephilas appeared. His official identity is the president of Tsuburaya Productions. It is not surprising that he appears here. He cares about the idols under his management.

　Mephilas could have just found a random excuse to get away with it, but that would have been too unfair to Chihaya Aine, who had fought so hard and ended up with bruises all over her body.

　It's true that Mephilas is a bad alien, but he still has to reward the children who have fought hard.

　"Miss Aine has been poisoned. I heard it was the toxin from the monster yesterday. Even though it's a very small amount, it's still extremely deadly to humans."

　"The monster from yesterday?"

　Li Xi was stunned. Such a big thing happened. Of course she watched the news. It was said that many people were killed and injured yesterday. Ultraman also fought very hard, but...

　"Why is Chihaya Aine in that place? Her home isn't there."

　Li Xi had never been to Aine's home, but he roughly knew that Aine's home was in that area of ​​Tokyo. The two areas were completely unrelated, so why would she go to such a place?

　"I don't know about that. You can ask Miss Aine yourselves after she wakes up."

　Mefilas could only help up to this point. It was a fact that could not be concealed that Chihaya Aine had been poisoned by the volcanic bird Barton. He couldn't just say that Aine had food poisoning from eating something wrong.

　Yesterday, many people were poisoned in the same place where the volcanic bird Patton appeared. This was only a trace amount of poison.

　The result of the toxins turning into gas and spreading into the air is that if all the toxins in the volcanic bird Barton explode, the consequences will be unimaginable.

　"Chihaya Aine, this idiot..."

　Normally, he and Aine bickered so fiercely that Li Xi didn't realize that his relationship with this guy had become so good. He rushed over to visit her as soon as he heard that she was in the hospital. It was really helpless.

　Soon, in addition to Riki, other members of the M78 band also arrived, including Hachiman Kaisuzu, Kaname Rakuna, and Takamatsu Touma.

　Deng came with her classmates, the Red and Green Light trio, who usually have a good relationship with Aine. When they heard the news that Aine was in the hospital, they came to visit her as soon as possible.

　But...Shoko Toyokawa didn't come.

　"That woman Toyokawa Shoko, doesn't she even come to visit Aine?"

　Li Xi was getting a little angry. It was okay that the team was not harmonious at ordinary times, but she was nowhere to be seen at this time. What a joke!

　"Lixi, don't be angry. Such a big thing happened yesterday. Who knows, Xiaoxiang might have encountered some accident as well."

　"Maybe you're right..."

　Li Xi suppressed his anger. The area where the monster appeared yesterday was a relatively remote place in Tokyo. To put it in more simple and easy-to-understand terms, it was the "slums" where the poor lived.

　How could the eldest daughter of Toyokawa Shoko be related to such a place? Li Xi's prejudice against Shoko became deeper and deeper.

　At this time, when Chihaya Aine was unconscious and sleeping, what was happening to Toyokawa Shoko?

　The temporary relief station set up by the Japanese government had its houses destroyed by the volcanic bird Barton, and the homeless people gathered here.

　"Xiaoxiang, go home."

　The man with a weathered face handed a bottle of mineral water to his daughter.

　"Home? Where do I even have a home?"

　"The Toyokawa family."

　"I'm not going back!"

　"Then what are you doing here? Becoming a homeless person with me?"

　"Then what do you think I should do? You bastard dad!"

　Pressure, despair, fear... these emotions burst out in an instant, and Shoko Toyokawa shed tears again. She was just a 15-year-old high school student. What's the use of being stubborn and strong?

　"I'm sorry, Xiaoxiang."

　Perhaps it was the experience of escaping death, or perhaps it was the experience of almost losing his daughter that woke this man up, and he had to face up to everything in front of him.

　"I'm not a good father. I can't give you a rich and happy life, so please, go back to the Toyokawa family."

　"I won't go back. There's nothing worth remembering about that kind of place!"

　Just then, these words were heard by an old man who came here.

　"Is that how you view the Toyokawa family?"

　"Father-in-law? Grandpa?!"

　"Bring them both back to me."

　Toyokawa Sadaharu ignored his son-in-law Toyokawa Kiyoshi and granddaughter Toyokawa Shoko. He just gave orders to his subordinates.

　Without any chance of refusal, Shoko Toyokawa was taken away in a luxurious Maybach.

　Volume 1: 57. Ultraman, wake up, I am...

　The luxurious Maybach was filled with silence.

　Xiangzi's father, Toyokawa Kiyoshi, didn't dare to speak, and Xiangzi himself didn't want to speak. Finally... Toyokawa Sadaharu, the old man of the Toyokawa family, took the initiative to speak.

　"Xiangzi, have you had enough of your nonsense? Come back if you have."

　"Are you kidding..."

　Xiangzi gnashed her teeth. Was all her hard work during this period just nonsense in the eyes of her grandfather? How long would this man continue to be so high and mighty?

　"You are still as stubborn as your mother."

　Talking about this, Toyokawa Sadaharu couldn't help but sigh. This was what happened when his daughter was in love with the man who called him father-in-law.

　Mizuho completely ignored Toyokawa Sadaharu's opposition, fell in love with Shoko's father, got married and gave birth to Shoko.

　In Toyokawa Sadaharu's view, Shoko's father was too weak to be the successor of the Toyokawa Group. He was just a useless person with empty sincerity. It was such a useless person that was loved by his own daughter.
