"Using light particles generated by the Max propulsion system to propel the metamorphosis seems feasible, but it's hard to say exactly how much of it would be needed."
Yako gently touched her hair with her fingers. "But fortunately, the one thing we have in abundance is the light particles of the Max Dynamics system."
The Max Dynamics system is an incredibly useful research achievement, and as an energy system, it is currently the best choice for Galatron. The light particles generated by the Max Dynamics system are also of great research value.
"So it's been a long time since I've been able to spend time alone with Leo. Sigh, there's a ton of annoying stuff every day, and so many monsters bothering me. It's so irritating."
Yako muttered to herself, then suddenly felt that the lines sounded strange coming from her own mouth. She turned to look at Eleking, who was sullenly wagging its tail.
"Hey, Ellie, there's no need to be so disappointed. Even though Leo hasn't had much time to spend with you lately, he still loves you very much. He even gave you that."
Lying on the sofa looking at Eleking, Ako's eyes held a hint of jealousy. "The Spark Doll of Dark Ultra Killer, that's no ordinary thing."
The Spark Doll from Dark Ultra Killer is a valuable item that even Reiblood would covet; it's far superior to Ace Killer.
"That's why I'm so upset. Even though Leo gave me something like this, I can't do anything for him."
Eleking fiddled with the Spark Doll in her hand, finding it quite relaxing as a toy. "Sigh, if it could make me stronger, I wouldn't mind even laying an egg for Leo."
"You're unwilling to suffer even the slightest loss, aren't you?" Ako couldn't help but complain. "But have you tried fusing with the Dark Ultra Killer doll?"
"I tried, but it didn't work." Eresh shook her head, while Ayako looked up in surprise. "Really? The compatibility isn't high enough?"
It's certain that Spark Dolls have a compatibility factor. When an average person uses a Spark Doll to transform, they can unleash at least 30% of the doll's power, with an average of 70%.
But Leo, along with all the Spark Dolls, can unleash power far exceeding their original strength. Ako figured that since Leo gave them everything, there shouldn't be anything that couldn't be achieved through fusion.
"It's a perfect match, almost reaching the same level as Leo, but this power... is stronger than mine, and it will overwhelm me. I don't want that kind of thing. I need to find something that can balance it."
Similarly, this is also due to her own lack of strength. Ereshkigal is clearly aware of this. As the electric dragon Eleking, she has no shortage of talent and has worked very hard in training, but why is the speed of her strength growth so slow?
“Because the time was too short.” Galatron placed a cup of tea in front of Eleking. “Talent and potential are things that need time to be discovered and consolidated. It’s just that you’ve overlooked this because of the frequent battles during this period.”
"There are too few monsters like Dimaga and Zetton that can grow rapidly through battle alone. Not to mention that the two of them have been struggling with how to take it a step further recently. Right now, relying on Dark Spark to achieve different fusions is our solution."
After being enlightened by Galatron, Eleking realized that this was indeed the case. She had only known Leo for a month, but she had grown considerably in that month. It was just that she simply couldn't keep up with the intensity of the battle.
But it's alright. Zetton, Jet, and Ozil, the three members of the Rai family, are almost the same. They have even reached the EX level. Eleking, after fusing with Ace Killer, became Lightning Killer, which is also at this level.
"Sigh, I really want to lay an egg for Leo." Eleking decided to stop thinking. With Leo and Galatrom around, abandoning his brain was the easiest thing to do.
"Speaking of which, who's on tonight?" Yako chewed on her cake and suddenly remembered that if nothing was going on tonight, they should take turns in order.
"Tonight... Magabasa, perhaps? Would she really do it? That girl's all talk and no action." King Elek thought of Magabasa's personality.
"Hmm, action rate 0%, but the probability of dragging Leo out for a drive is 100%."
Okay, Galatrom has drawn his conclusion, so the outcome is already decided. After all, Magabassa's toughest thing is his mouth.
Chapter 352 Family Reunion
"In other words, monsters started appearing on Earth ten years ago. We were fighting against Sphia back then, but now that I think about it, it wasn't serious at all."
After listening to Leo's brief account of what had happened on Earth during this period, Masao Asami found it incredible that humanity could survive in such a harsh environment, and even thrive.
Similarly, Leo also learned what had happened to Masao Asami and Kazuma Asuka.
During the testing of the Plasma Type 100, the speed of the Plasma Type 100 testing machine once reached or even exceeded the speed of light. The communication signal was suddenly interrupted, and before the two people could react, they had already exceeded the limits of time and space.
In that unknown place, where time and space were transcended, Masao Asami and Kazuma Asuka saw the light. The warm light shone on them, enveloped them, and then carried them away.
The two transformed into Dyna and Deka, becoming Ultraman, amidst the light. They originally intended to return to Earth, but accidentally discovered the existence of Chaos Fairy. Realizing that this was a threat to the universe, they chose to stop Chaos Fairy's actions.
At that time, although the Chaos virus and the Sphia had not yet fully merged, they had already begun to secretly invade the universe.
The appearance of the two, and the subsequent arrival of Ultraman Cosmos to provide support, thwarted many of Softia's plans. However, as the fusion of the Chaos virus and Softia's life form progressed, the combined power of the three began to wane.
"Chaosphia was very wary of Cosmos's power and tried to separate him from us, but she never expected that Cosmos would come here... Oh, according to you, he was originally the Ultraman here."
"But I really didn't expect that, besides me and Kazuma, there are actually so many Ultramen on Earth, more than a dozen."
When Leo mentioned these things, Masao Asami was stunned for a moment, thinking that something was wrong. Was this still Earth? But at least Leo didn't mention that most of the Ultramen were his teammates.
"Oh, by the way, Leo, are you Ultraman?"
"Ah, no, at first I was even on the opposite side of Ultraman. I am Reiblood." As he spoke, Leo revealed his awakened form in an instant, and Masao Asami almost jumped out of his skin in fright.
Although he didn't know what kind of species the Reiblood aliens were, he could clearly sense that Leo didn't need any fancy schemes to deal with him; the difference in strength between the two was too great.
“My mother… well, the person who created me was a bit careless and accidentally dropped me on Earth. I was raised by Grandma Asami, and Uncle Hayata and the others took good care of me. Besides me, the shrine also took in many aliens.”
"I never thought Kazumi's dream would actually come true." Masao Asami's lips curled up. "I first met Kazumi under the starry sky. I was deeply captivated by Kazumi looking up at the stars."
"Her eyes were full of expectation, without any confusion, as if the universe was full of treasures to her. She said that if possible, she hoped to become friends with the visitors from the universe."
What a pure girl she is! Her eyes are full of hope and expectation, and her voice is unwavering. Anyone would fall in love with someone like her.
Why, you ask? Well, because it's more fun this way. Besides, the more friends you have, the fewer enemies you have. If everyone is a friend, we'll never need war again!
As Masao Asami recalled the past, his smile grew brighter as he looked up at the brilliant starry sky. "Marrying Kazumi is the greatest happiness of my life. You have no idea how many rivals I faced back then."
The more they recall the past, the happier they become. This is how Masao Asami and Kazuma Asuka have spent the past ten-plus years of wandering and fighting in space.
The streetlights were bright. The two walked side by side. Asami Masao saw a little girl walking towards them in the distance. She was a girl with long hair and wearing a white dress. She was holding two bunches of slightly withered flowers in her hands. But why was she carrying a sword on her back? Wouldn't she be caught?
Leo stopped and looked at her. "Mari, is it so late today?"
"Yes, but I have to go back now. My parents are very worried about me and my brother, so they plan to come back tonight." Mari nodded. "Brother Leo, who is this person next to you?"
"It is my uncle, Masao Asami, who is also Ultraman Dekae."
Leo's answer was simple and straightforward, which made Masao Asami's eyelids twitch. No, did Leo just reveal to him that he was Ultraman Dekae?
Wait, how come this girl's radiance is even stronger than mine, Ultraman? No wonder, others probably can't even see her.
"So you must be Mr. Asami. It's a pleasure to meet you." Ida Marie suppressed her surprise, bowed deeply to Asami Masao, then stood up, her eyes filled with gratitude and more complex emotions. "Well then, I won't disturb you any longer."
After finishing her sentence, Ida Mari watched Leo and Asami Masao leave, sighed, and then left the park with the old bouquet of flowers in her arms.
Even if Leo didn't say it, Masao Asami could understand many things on his own. Leo's attitude along the way proved his bad premonitions.
Leo stopped at a certain point in the park, looking at the public cemetery not far away, and then looked at Masao Asami, "Row 14, seats 17 and 18."
"Okay." Masao Asami nodded and walked toward the cemetery. His steps were a little unsteady at first, but he quickly became firm.
Yes, he had actually been thinking about all sorts of worst-case scenarios, especially after the Sphia invaded Earth, he had already given up hope.
Leo turned around and looked at Renlong, who had quietly appeared beside him. He hugged her and buried his head in Renlong's arms. The latter just hugged him and gently stroked him. Even though she had let go in her heart, she still felt heartache every time she thought about it.
Masao Asami placed his hands on his chest, looking at the two tombstones and the two photos on them showing bright smiles.
He first glanced at his son Asami Kazuha's tombstone, noting his birth and death dates and deeds. When he saw that he had sacrificed himself ten years ago, he understood everything. Then he looked at his wife Asami Kazumi's tombstone, which stated that she had sacrificed herself to save someone. Combined with the story of Ida Mari, he seemed to understand something as well.
But now, none of that matters anymore.
Asami Masao reached out and hugged the two tombstones that Leo had asked him to put together, and only then did tears slide down his cheeks.
"Kazumi, Kawai, I'm back."
The wind rustled the newly placed bouquets in front of the grave, as if silently welcoming the man who had wandered the universe for more than a decade back to his homeland.
Chapter 353 Flying Bird: My Father Appeared?
"Flying Bird, you're not bad, kid."
Ken patted Asuka on the shoulder, threw the Coke can in his hand into the trash can, and watched as Gala Oguma appeared in the teleportation ring in the sky, turning the city ruins into data and then reprojecting new buildings.
That's why the two of them are still outside so late, because the chance to see Gala Oguma up close is quite rare. Not to mention the two of them, many people are recording videos with their phones.
"Wow, my house has been repaired just like that!" Asuka was shocked to see his house restored to its original state; his house had been burned to ashes.
It can only be said that Galatron's science and technology are truly bizarre. In fact, Galatron could have given this technology to Earth, but even if they did, Earthlings wouldn't be able to do the same thing.
Restoring just one city would require more energy than a single Max power system could provide, so it would be more appropriate to ask Galatron to start the project directly.
"How is your aunt doing?" Kenjiro Fudo recalled that Asuka's mother had been injured while helping others during the evacuation and was still in the hospital.
"He's mostly recovered, the doctor said he can be discharged tomorrow. By the way, where's Kenji?"
"He's staying at a classmate's house tonight. By the way, Asuka, do you really know Leo, the vice-captain of ESCG?"
Mentioning this, Kenjiro Fudo immediately perked up. He greatly admired Leo, and the thought that Asuka had actually met Leo and even had a good relationship with him made him jealous.
He was afraid his brother would suffer, and he was also afraid his brother would drive a Land Rover. Let alone getting to know Leo, he would have to keep his hands wrapped in bandages for the rest of his life just to shake hands with him.
"We know each other and have a pretty good relationship. But it seems like Leo can maintain good relationships with everyone. He's a nice guy, but once he gets serious, people are especially afraid to look him in the eye."
When Leo is serious, Asuka really doesn't dare to make a sound. His aura is too strong, as if the entire TPC would act on Leo's orders. Oh, he really would.
"Grandpa Jiro said he wants to live a good life." Asuka suddenly brought up this matter. Strangely enough, it seems that after his mindset changed, Grandpa Jiro's health improved and he recovered quickly.
"That's great, we should live well... Speaking of which, we almost died today too."
"We're going to join ESCG in the future, so let's just consider this a test for ourselves."
Asuka was quite pleased with herself, and Ken couldn't help but nod in agreement. In fact, Leo already knew about their deeds, but for the sake of their future, he didn't plan to make it public and would just give them some rewards in private.
After all, putting aside whether these two will get carried away by their success, their lives will be affected if various media outlets and newspapers come knocking on their door.
"I think my dad will be very proud of us." Asuka's lips curled up, looking quite pleased with herself.
“Yes, I think Uncle will definitely…” Ken Fudo said, turning to look at the crowd behind him. His jaw dropped, and he reached out to tug at Asuka. “Asuka, your dad has appeared!”
"Your dad's really appeared! I'm telling you, if you keep doing this, we brothers will..." Asuka turned around, about to scold Ken, when she suddenly gaped, "My dad really appeared!?"
"You brat!" Asuka Kazuma's face darkened. It was such a rare opportunity for father and son to reunite, but why did this kid have such a sharp tongue?
Stepping forward quickly, Asuka Kazuma grabbed Asuka Shin's head and looked at that familiar yet unfamiliar face. He then patted Asuka's shoulder and said, "Well done, kid. I'm proud of you."
On the note given by Galatron, there was also a record of Asuka's performance this time. Asuka Kazuma was really happy that his son had grown up and was still as excellent as ever.
Ken Fudo knew better than to leave quietly. Although he didn't know how Kazuma Asuka had returned, he decided it was best not to disturb them for the time being.
"Dad, where have you been all these years? You promised to bring me back some lunar soil!"
"Didn't we just say we'd write your name on the surface of the moon?" Asuka Kazuma hadn't forgotten his promise to his son. Come to think of it... that's quite astonishing.
At this distance, Kazuma Asuka could clearly feel that the light emanating from his son was also dazzling, as was that of Fudo's eldest son, and even Dyna's light... echoing Shin Asuka's.
"Well, since you still remember this, it proves that my dad really wasn't an alien in disguise, which puts my mind at ease."
Kazuma Asuka then realized that his son was questioning his identity. Good heavens, "You've got quite a few tricks up your sleeve!"
"These are all necessary, otherwise what if we get scammed by aliens? TPC is promoting anti-fraud efforts against aliens every day."
"..." Asuka Kazuma looked at the billboard that Asuka Shin was pointing to, which was playing an advertisement on "How to Spot Aliens' Disguise and Deception," and suddenly realized that he still lacked enough understanding of the current Earth.
Unfortunately, like Masao Asami, he was also rejected by Earth and even the solar system for some unknown reason, but he didn't have the same strong repulsive force as Father of Ultra and the others.
"Everything's fine here, but there are some people in the crowd who don't seem too nice. Is that alright?"
Standing atop the high-rise building, Gorgorgon reported the situation while looking down. Although those who had blended into the crowd seemed natural, it was easy for her, standing at such a height, to spot their flaws.
"Those are people from the Special Investigation Division. The sudden appearance of Ultraman Hikari, Dyna, and Dekae must make them suspect that the other might be using human forms to operate on Earth. It's only natural that they would launch an investigation."
While answering, Galatrom conducted various experiments, especially the mass production of the Full Moon Wave targeting Gauss, a weapon aimed at Chaos Chaos Huan.
"Kazuma Asuka and Mr. Asami don't know enough about the current Earth, and they didn't hide their whereabouts, so it's normal that they were discovered. It's okay, the news from Leo's side has already reached them."
“It really is.” Gorgorgon watched as the Special Investigations Division personnel suddenly received the news and began to retreat. “But this can’t be kept secret, can it?”
"Leo didn't intend to suppress this matter either. Masaki Keigo's matter has already been brought to the forefront internally. Two more Ultramen won't make a difference. No one in TPC would dare to do anything foolish."
Galatron understood Leo's thoughts perfectly; he was planning to use this opportunity to get Dr. Dango to directly release all the research materials from their previous studies.
However, Galatron had already studied all the Ultraman statues in the ruins. Unfortunately, only a very few of them could be "revived," and these statues were all labeled with names.
“Zeta, Aker... Hmm, these two Ultramen don’t seem to be members of the Ancient Giants either.”
Looking at the names on the notebook, Galatron pondered where to find a suitable person. Sigh, forget it, I'll leave this to Leo. He's like an Ultraman magnet, he bumps into Ultraman wherever he goes.
Chapter 354 Magabassa's Humiliation
"Yes, that's enough. There's no need to use surveillance on them. Their identities are not in question."
Leo was writing the report he needed, while Lucy leaned against him, holding the communicator to his ear and resting her chin on his shoulder, watching curiously as he wrote.
"Don't tell anyone else about these things except the top few. I will make extra arrangements for tomorrow. Thank you all for your hard work this time."
Leo, who had just hung up the call, was somewhat impressed. The speed of the Special Investigation Division's actions was truly extraordinary. If Leo's side hadn't been fast enough, Kazuma Asuka and Masao Asami would probably be being questioned in the interrogation room right now.
"Are these guys really free lately? Is it because Earth has shown such fighting power against the Natanians that not many aliens are running to Earth all the time?"
Luciel didn't have much contact with humans, but by following Leo, she had seen all sorts of people. Her impression of the TPC group was that they were all incredibly good at working overtime.
“You’re wrong, Luciel. In fact, the number of aliens coming to Earth hasn’t decreased; in fact, it has increased significantly.”
"Why is there more?" Luciel was a little confused. Ampera placed a hot coffee on Leo's table and explained it to her.
