I was transported by the 100-ton Wang Chuangfei and became a plasma spark spirit?

"What on earth is going on?!"

The elder brother's questioning voice, accompanied by the hiss of the automatic door sliding open, rushed into the chaotic command room.

Staff Officer Chiba Tatsumi strode in, his face ashen.

"Monster energy reactions have been detected simultaneously in nine locations worldwide! And the number is still increasing!"

"Monsters have appeared in South America, region G-3!"

"Europe! Monster sighting confirmed in the Alps!"

"A huge moving object has been detected in the X-1 area of ​​North America, rising at high speed!"

Atsuko Sasaki and Georgie Leland's hands were practically sparking as they typed on the console keyboard.

With his hands behind his back, Akio Ishimuro remained silent, his usually composed face now clouded with an unprecedented solemnity.

A simultaneous catastrophe is unfolding in every corner of the world!

"Report! An underground energy reaction is rapidly approaching the surface in the K-1 area of ​​Tokyo! It's coming! It's a monster!"

Akio Ishimuro turned to look at Seiichiro Tsutsumi, who immediately nodded solemnly and grabbed the communicator beside him to give the order.

"All personnel, move out immediately! Lightning Team, Falcon Team, Cool Dragon Team, proceed to Tokyo K-1 area to suppress the monsters and cover the evacuation of civilians!"

"Received!" x3

The communications channel carried brief and powerful responses from the squad leaders.

Even the voices of Katsumi Kajio, Tatsuhiko Yoneda, Miho Inashiro, and other top-notch ace pilots couldn't hide the shock in their voices.

A global, synchronized monster disaster.

This has never happened before in human history.

Tokyo, K-1 district, a bustling commercial street.

Suddenly, a tooth-grinding tremor came from the ground.

Then, the asphalt road, like a fragile biscuit, suddenly arched upwards from the center, and spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly.

Boom! ...

With a deafening roar, the earth shook violently, and the ground was completely torn apart!

A giant claw covered in solid gray-brown skin suddenly shot out, its five sharp claws digging deep into the road surface, crushing the concrete and steel bars to dust.

Immediately afterwards, a hideous head slowly rose from the deep pit.

It was a colossal beast modeled after a tiger, with horns on its head. Its yellow eyes, which should have been filled with the majesty of a guardian, were now replaced by a pure, insane crimson.

Strands of dark shadow, visible to the naked eye and writhing like living creatures, seeped from the cracks in its skin and flowed back in, exuding an aura of ominousness and curse.

Pedestrians screamed and scattered, vehicles crashed out of control, and the piercing alarms and cries instantly shattered the peaceful afternoon!

"Roar--!!!"

Tiguris.

This monster, which should have been sleeping underground, guarding the earth, let out a roar filled with pain and violence.

The powerful sound waves transformed into a visible shockwave, shattering the glass curtain walls of all the surrounding high-rise buildings.

Glass shards rained down like a storm, and in the distance, the crowds on the street screamed in even greater terror and despair as they fled for their lives...

Outside the abandoned factory, the cold wind blew through the broken windowpanes, making a wailing sound.

The air between Takayama Gamu and Fujimiya Hiroya was even more stagnant than the passing cold wind.

In the distance, Tokyo's skyline was stained with thick plumes of black smoke.

The piercing alarm ripped through the sky, mingling with the screams of the crowd and the roar of collapsing buildings, creating a prelude to the apocalypse.

An ominous pulse emanated from the depths of the earth; the earth's core itself seemed like a huge, tormented heart, convulsing violently, each beat shaking the surface.

Takayama Gamu's chest heaved violently, each breath aggravating his injuries, as if his lungs were being torn apart.

Because of a clash of beliefs, he and Hiroya Fujimiya had just ended a fierce battle that nearly exhausted both of them.

But just at this moment, a monster appeared, and the streets of Tokyo became a complete mess!

"I...I have to go!"

Takayama Gamu staggered past Fujimiya Hiroya, and with his last ounce of willpower, raised the Blue Sapphire Cone high and roared.

"Gaia—!!!"

A red light suddenly shone, trying desperately to envelop his body!

However, the light only struggled to flicker for a moment, shining brightly for less than half a second, before suddenly going out like a candle flickering in the wind.

"...Ugh!"

The feeling of exhaustion, mixed with excruciating pain, instantly drained all of Takayama Gamu's strength.

His vision spun, the world tilted before him, and finally crashed heavily onto the cold, hard concrete floor.

The blue cone slipped from his exhausted hand and fell to the ground with a crisp clanging sound.

Failed.

The transformation failed when the power was most needed.

Why now of all times...?

Why did I have to fight Fujimiya to this extent...?

Gao Shan slammed his fist hard onto the concrete ground, making his knuckles ache, but he couldn't feel it.

A regret and anger a thousand times stronger than physical pain burned in his heart.

The distant city's lamentations, the piercing alarms, the deafening crashes of collapsing buildings, and the desperate screams of the crowd... each sound was like a sharp knife piercing his chest.

Fujimiya Hiroya stood not far behind him, his figure also swaying.

He didn't look at my kneeling dream, but instead looked up at the sky stained with black smoke.

He sensed it.

A cold, malevolent, and hateful darkness, not of this earth, is polluting the planet like a plague.

The Earth is wailing.

This pain, originating from the planet itself, poured directly into his soul through the light of Agul.

It was not human destruction.

They are foreign... invaders!

A surge of rage at the violation of something important instantly overwhelmed his physical exhaustion and pain.

"You damned bastard..."

Fujimiya Hiroya gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words, his voice filled with murderous intent to crush that darkness into ashes.

He suddenly raised his right hand, and the sapphire bracelet on his wrist unfolded and spun.

The next moment, Fujimiya Hiroya poured all his remaining will into it, trying to awaken the power of the ocean!

"Agul—!!!"

A faint bluish-green light flickered and struggled within the bracelet's core, but before it could even fully envelop his wrist, it went out with a soft "poof."

"......hateful!"

Fujimiya Hiroya's legs buckled, and he knelt on one knee, supporting himself with his hands as he gasped for breath.

The sapphire bracelet's luster completely disappeared.

Two young men who had just considered each other mortal enemies now knelt on the same pile of ruins in the same disheveled state.

They became the most powerless bystanders.

Because of a battle of beliefs between those advocating the protection of Earth and those advocating the protection of humanity, the last strength to protect this planet was exhausted, leaving them only able to watch helplessly as disaster struck...

The Fighter SS's fuselage tore through the gray-black sky stained with thick smoke.

Inside the cockpit, Katsumi Kajio calmly controlled the fighter jet. On the display screen of his tactical helmet, a series of green dots representing friendly forces were forming a sharp arrow formation centered on him.

"Captain Lightning is calling all units. We are about to enter the K-1 area. Visually confirm the target."

The team members' suppressed, tense confirmation came through the communication channel.

Through the curved cockpit glass, Tokyo below had been transformed into a model of a burning hell.

The once bustling streets were torn open with hideous wounds, and flames and black smoke rose from the cracks in the city, weaving a web of despair.

Target confirmed!

Satoshi Okawara's voice trembled slightly.

Right in the center of the intersection below, that enormous creature was impatiently scratching at the asphalt with its powerful front paws, sending asphalt and gravel flying like biscuit crumbs.

Its grayish-brown skin was as solid as the mountain rock itself, and its limbs were strong and powerful. Every movement made the foundations of the surrounding buildings groan under the strain.

"What is that..." Kitada Yasushi's voice broke in, filled with confusion, "The monster has black mist on its body."

Katsumi Kajio noticed it too.

Wisps and strands of pitch-black mist, like burning flames, swirled around Tiguris's body, flowing slowly and exuding an ominous aura.

"Attention all personnel, prioritize attacking this area and prevent it from continuing to move towards the civilian evacuation zone!"

Katsumi Kajio didn't have time to investigate further. He slammed the control stick, and the Fighter SS nose plunged down, diving at a sharp angle.

"Lightning One, commence attack! Heat missiles, launch!"

He pressed the firing button with his thumb.

From both wings, several missiles, trailing crimson flames, detached from their pylons, tracing precise arcs of death in the air as they hurtled toward Tigurlis's back.

boom--!!!

The deafening explosion swept through the entire block.

The orange-red fireball suddenly expanded, completely engulfing Tigusli's massive body, and the violent shockwave blasted away a large amount of surrounding building debris.

"Hit!"

"Good job!"

A brief cheer rang out over the communication channel.

However, Katsumi Kajio's expression did not relax at all; he stared intently at the billowing smoke and dust below.

The smoke dissipated.

Tiguris remained standing in the same spot, merely shaking its head irritably, as if it had just been disturbed by the sound of the explosion.

The back, which was directly hit by the missile, didn't even have a trace of char.

The black mist surrounding its body seemed to be even thicker than before.

"..."

The communication channel fell silent, then erupted in gasps.

"What!?"

"Attack failed? How is that possible!"

Kitada and Okawara's exclamations rang out simultaneously on the communication channel, filled with disbelief and astonishment.

"Weapon system confirmed! Report the attack data just now!" Kajio Katsumi shouted sharply, his own heart sinking.

"Report, Captain! System normal! Missile hit 100% accuracy, full output! It's its defense... its defense is outrageous!"

"I'll do it!"

Tatsuhiko Yoneda's calm voice came from another channel.

"Falcon Team, prepare the powerful laser cannons!"

Three Fighter STs cut in from higher altitudes, their cannons under their bellies gleaming with dazzling light, and six scorching beams fired simultaneously, accurately striking Tiguris.

Boom! ...

An even more blinding white light than the missile explosion instantly engulfed the entire block.
