Ultraman: The Ultimate Transdimensional Showdown-Ultraman Dimension Fighting! (4)
There was an Ultraman who debuted at his peak and immediately gained a lot of popularity, even appearing in later works multiple times.
His initial form is red and blue, and he can also transform into a form that is entirely red and entirely blue, one a power type and the other a speed type...
That's right, his name is—
Ultraman Tiga!
"Damn it! Your time is over, now it's my stage!" Young Zero angrily threw down his popcorn and cursed, "Hey, you little girl, did you hear me? Give me a good beating!!!"
Damn it, this familiar ominous feeling... Am I going to end up like that bastard Taiga Nozomi from last time, another black mark on my record? No way! It would be fine if other people saw this, but the person on the other side is Belial, that super bastard I and the others have killed countless times!!!
Young Zero's intense resentment transformed into motivation, which was transmitted to Xing, who was controlling the Tokusatsu Machine Zero in the cockpit. The girl enthusiastically flipped through the skills that had suddenly appeared in her mind. "Hehe, let this young lady... ptooey! This young master see what's fun. This one will do!"
Note: Ultraman's true consciousness is referred to by its nickname, while those who are controlled by Sachi's consciousness during battle are called by their real names.
In the real world, the two Ultraman, who love and hate each other, quickly closed the distance. Zero seized the opportunity, leaped up, and attacked Belial with a flying kick, flames igniting on his right foot.
Zero Kick!
Bang! Zero kicked Belial's solid pectoral muscles, sending him flying with tremendous force. It has to be said, that kick felt pretty good!
The battle-hardened Belial was not easily defeated by this move. He quickly regained his footing and continued to charge after revealing his claws. However, he was forced to stop by a beam of emerald green cutting light and raised his hand to open a barrier.
Emerium Slash! Belial Barrier! (Dark Version)
PS: The Dark version is noted because in the current Ultraman adaptations, we have only seen Belial in his Light form activate his shield.
Zero crouched down, stretched out his left arm, and fired Emerald Ray from the beam lamp on his forehead. After landing a successful blow, he quickly stood up and charged toward Belial, beginning close combat.
Belial roared, annoyed that Zero had gotten the upper hand first. Just as he was about to have a passionate battle with Zero face to face, he suddenly noticed that Zero seemed to be missing something on his head.
You guessed right, here's a Zero Head Dart for you!
Two sharp ice axes transformed into green streaks of light, launching multi-directional attacks on Belial from various angles under the control of Ultra Telekinesis. While Belial was distracted, Zero shook his right arm, igniting flames on his fist, and suddenly exerted force with his feet, cracking the floor of Absolute Planet. He then attacked Belial from above with a slashing motion.
Zero the Big Bang!
Belial is no ordinary person. As a popular villain who is often dragged out and whipped... I mean, missed, after noticing Zero charging towards him, he slapped away the rapidly moving ice axe with a claw, and purple-black lightning wrapped around his right hand. Almost at the same time as Zero, he threw a punch.
Deathcium Punch!
Bang!!!
The clash of their fists created a spatial ripple, the recoil sending both of them staggering back several steps. Belial dusted himself off, watching Zero's increasingly excited expression with interest. "Ha, what a strange feeling, Zero. Can you believe it? Just now, I felt like I was seeing that rebellious version of you from back then. It's so nostalgic..."
Sai Young Zero unfold, snorted disdainfully, but his expression became complicated. Yes, now that he had grown up and become more mature, he was no longer the person he used to be. Maturity is a good thing, but when you look back on the past, do you still miss the immature version of yourself?
"Play well, little sister. This time, Belial and I are in agreement, which is rare... You really showed some of my style back in the day: arrogant, confident, handsome, powerful, unruly... and a little bit of composure."
"Hey, you flatter me. I'm not quite used to your body yet..." Xing scratched his head sheepishly in the cockpit (a strange name for the transformation space) and said something that would infuriate Young Zero to the point of near death, but also make him extremely gratified. Look, isn't this several universes stronger than my previous human form?
PS: Sachi hasn't quite adapted to Young Zero's body yet, otherwise she would have transformed into the Strong Corona Mode and unleashed Garnet Buster right in Old Man Belial's face. Also, her arrogance stems from Sachi's original personality—a show-off brat—though this can't be fully displayed in the Honkai World.
"Come on, round two begins!" Zero held his two head-mounted scythes still in front of him and unleashed a spinning kick to accelerate the slicing of his opponent. This time, Belial wasn't going to let him get away with it. He slapped the scythes back with a claw and casually pulled out the black and hard Ultimate Battler from behind his back... Where did you put that long stick?!
Zero wielded two ice axes and slashed at him a few times. Feeling that the short and small headbands were not handy, he merged the two headbands together to create the bow-blade type weapon Zero Twin Sword, and engaged in a spark-filled battle with Belial.
"That was exhilarating, Zero!"
"But I'm really unhappy!"
Blue and white lightning bolts were released from the top of the Ultimate Battler. This attack, powerful enough to incapacitate an adult Ultraman Warrior, was forcefully deflected by Zero. Emerald green light spots appeared on Zero Twin Sword, indicating that he had just prepared a skill to unleash.
Bang!
As the two clashed once more, their weapons were knocked away, and they resumed their hand-to-hand combat.
Zero: I know this well~
"Eat my Super Flame... how was it called again?" Zero, who had forgotten what the move was called, lifted Belial up like a pile driver, jumped high into the air, and then slammed the enemy to the ground in one go.
Young Zero, a bystander, commented. "Don't ask me, I forgot too. Maybe I'll ask Hong Lian another day? But little sister, you played beautifully, keep it up!"
The Belial trapped below looked utterly dejected, a familiar sight, but I was incredibly annoyed...
Bang!!!
Amidst the rising dust, Zero struck a cool pose and beckoned dismissively to Belial was stuck upside down in the floor, with his finger, "Come here!"
The Alien Empera of the entire planet, watching the drama unfold from the sidelines. "..."
Diabolo: "Shouldn't we go and kill Zero?"
Tartarus: "Do you want to be beaten to death by Ultimate Shining Zero? Let Belial deplete his energy first."
The King of Ultra, peeping at the screen. "..."
Just as Zero was about to take the opportunity to kick Belial's butt a few times, he caught a glimpse of the Ultimate Battler next to him out of the corner of his eye. He was immediately terrified as the hundred slots on the Ultimate Battler that stored the souls of monsters lit up one after another.
"Holy crap, could it be?!" Zero immediately assumed the starting stance for Zero Concentrated Ray, but before he could fire it, a violent tremor came from beneath his feet. The Ultimate Battler automatically flew into the sky, and a colossal object burst out of the ground with Belial on top of it, overturning a large section of the floor for the Alien Empera.
A colossal object, constructed from the overlapping of various monsters and aliens, suddenly appeared before Zero's eyes. Even the towering Ultraman appeared as small as a human in the face of this behemoth.
Belial, nestled atop the heads of the monsters, looked down at Zero and roared with maniacal laughter, "That's right, just as you thought, Zero! Let's recreate that scene from back then!"
Belial Doro, the hundred-bodied monster, here I come!
"Damn..." Zero muttered a curse under his breath, excitedly picking up the Zero Twin Sword. He'd fought quite a few bosses today. No rush, let's take it one at a time!
Divine Power of Light burst forth from the Ultra Twin Swords, transforming into blue armor that adorned Zero's upper body, with the golden star mark on his chest shining brightly.
Ultraman Zero Super Form, here I come!
Setting: Zero's Zero Head Cutter is an attack-specialized armor transformed from the Power of Light. It has the ability to amplify power many times over, has excellent attack power and can move at super speed. It can release the Emerium Starlight Beam from the star mark on its chest, and the spikes on its wrists can also be used as cutting weapons.
Dense beams of light erupted from Belial Doro's body, and Zero, a blue blur, darted through the gaps between the beams, his blades leaving wound after wound on Belial Doro's body, starting from its thighs and moving upwards.
Moving past his lower body to his waist, and seeing the beams becoming increasingly dense, Zero simply gave up resisting and plunged headlong into the ocean of destructive beams.
Belial thought Zero had gone mad, but the next second, a dazzling stream of light burst forth irresistibly from the dense beams of light. It was Zero in his new form, his blue armor turning back to silver, and his arms now equipped with different weapons.
Ultraman Zero in Guardian Mode, reporting for duty!
Setting: Corresponding to the Super Form, this is Zero's defensive-specialized form of the Head Slaughter Device, protecting himself from all attacks. It boasts excellent defensive capabilities, able to defend with the shield equipped on its left arm and to use the reflective blade equipped on its right arm to concentrate attacks received by the Head Slaughter Device into a beam-like counterattack. It can also perform normal attacks.
Terrifying energy surged from the reflective blade on Zero's right wrist, concentrating all the damage he had just suffered into this attack. Realizing the situation was not right, Belial also controlled Belial Doro to raise his arms and assume a defensive stance.
"Emerium Tenku Hyakuju Heart!"
Zero roared and spread his arms into an L-shape. An incredibly powerful beam of light shot out from the Reflecting Blade, blasting a large hole in Belial Doro's hands.
A blue streak flashed through the cave entrance and rushed to Belial's side. It was Zero, who had transformed back into his Super form. The star mark on his chest kept flashing. The next second, a dazzling golden torrent burst out from it, blasting Belial directly off Belial Doro's head.
Emerium Starlight Beam!
Without its leader, the Grand King Pestar collapsed without a fight. Just as Zero, who had just finished shooting, was happily putting his head crest back on, a terrifyingly green light appeared in the distance. Zero used his Ultra Vision to get a closer look and saw a continuous stream of green crystals falling through a portal.
"Could it be..." Zero sensed something, activated the Ultimate Bracelet, and put on the Shield of Baraji in advance.
"Congratulations on guessing right again, Zero!" A monstrous alien beast pried open the ore and unleashed an atomic breath—or rather, a red and black breath of unknown name—that hurtled toward Zero.
Two sharp green mineral veins on its back, eyes similar to Belial's, a purple timer on its chest... the identity of this colossal monster is self-evident.
Arc Belial, here I come!
Belial: Thank you Ultimate Lifeform... well, the name is too long to remember, but anyway, thank you for the Amy ore reward from the Alien Empera!
Wearing the Ultimate Armor, Zero switched to Moon Miracle Type, teleported to dodge, and appeared behind Arc Belial. He unleashed Multiple Head Slash and Ripplium Crush at the same time, but still could not cause any substantial damage.
Author's Note—
Triga Xiaoguang is preparing for a future collaboration with a friend, so it's quite long. I originally wanted to finish writing the Zero arc's battle in this chapter, but I really didn't have much motivation today, so I'm sorry it's so short...
