The Loving Warrior

"He's refusing the power that's chasing after him?!"

"Is this guy even a normal human?!"

The people of the Douluo Continent were filled with confusion.

Seeing Taiga Nozomu swat away Ultraman Zero's offer, they were completely stunned.

The power they couldn't obtain even in their wildest dreams was not only handed to him, but he had actually rejected it.

It really gave them the impression that Taiga Nozomu was squandering a heavenly treasure.

However, there was still one problem.

In the current situation, without a fighter jet and without transforming into an Ultra Warrior, how exactly was Taiga Nozomu going to escape the monster's pursuit?

[Taiga Nozomu fled with the boy, and as they reached the bridge, the monster submerged into the water.]

[Suddenly, a massive drill emerged beneath their feet.]

[The monster surfaced, destroying the entire bridge, and Taiga Nozomu, clutching the boy, was sent flying into the air.]

Just as the people of the Douluo Continent thought the two were about to lose their lives, [Taiga Nozomu, while still holding the boy, actually leaped through the air using the fragments of the shattered bridge.]

[With a series of jumps, he managed to land right on the monster's drill.]

[What followed was an escape that looked more like a game.]

After witnessing that scene, the people of the Douluo Continent were dumbfounded.

"Is this guy a superman?"

"Without a Martial Soul, he possesses such physical strength—is he really a human from Earth?"

"Even a Title Douluo would have no choice but to flee in such a situation, yet this Earthling is performing maneuvers as if he's just playing around."

However, from the conversation between Taiga Nozomu and Ultraman Zero on the Sky Screen, they discovered that this extraordinary strength of Taiga Nozomu's was actually bestowed upon him by Ultraman Zero.

It turned out that becoming a human host didn't just provide a transformation device to become an Ultra; it also synchronized and enhanced one's physical strength and combat techniques.

This reflected from another angle that besides his own immense power, Ultraman Zero's combat skills were also exceptionally formidable.

But as long as Taiga Nozomu didn't transform into an Ultra Warrior, he would ultimately have no way to defeat this monster.

He even had a boy in his arms; one mistake and both of them would be in grave danger.

Under such circumstances, Taiga Nozomu still chose not to transform into an Ultra Warrior.

Even Bibi Dong felt that this person might be a bit insane.

[Just as Taiga Nozomu landed, the monster stopped in its tracks and ceased its pursuit.]

The Sky Screen's perspective shifted, and the people of the Douluo Continent saw a new Ultra Warrior.

An Ultra Warrior with a blue and silver color scheme, lacking any red, who exuded a gentle and refined aura.

[Ultraman Zero: "Cosmos? Was he also summoned here by that voice?"]

At the same time, the Sky Screen began to introduce the identity of this mysterious Ultra Warrior.

[Ultraman Cosmos]

[A Giant of Light from Planet Juran (a planet where numerous monsters live together in peace)]

[Height: 47 meters]

[Weight: 42,000 tons]

[Flight Speed: Mach 7]

[Titles: Warrior of Benevolence (Official); High-Level Fusion Material (Unofficial); Master of Slacking Off (Unofficial)]

While introducing Ultraman Cosmos, the Sky Screen's imagery shifted to scenes of Ultraman Cosmos on Planet Juran.

The planet was covered in mountains and forests, with countless monsters living within, coexisting harmoniously with one another.

Ultraman Cosmos was right there among the monsters, living in harmony as if they were family.

In the Soul Beast camp, alarm bells rang in Di Tian's heart.

He turned around, only to see Gu Yuena already standing before him.

Di Tian thought to himself that it was all over.

But the scene he had anticipated—of Gu Yuena frantically rushing out to surrender to the Ultra—did not happen.

At this moment, Xiong Jun also walked over and spoke:

"An hour has passed."

Hearing this, Di Tian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Yuena finally returned to normal at the very last moment.

However, Gu Yuena was still deeply moved in her heart upon seeing Ultraman Cosmos.

"Planet Juran—this is simply the world that we Soul Beasts dream of."

In that world, Soul Beasts no longer hide from one another, nor do they need to slumber for fear of the gods.

In this way, the Soul Beasts can undergo their tribulations in peace, without fear of being disturbed.

Gu Yuena sighed.

Yet, having returned to her senses, she remained extremely cautious.

This was Ultraman Cosmos's attitude toward the local monsters, but how would he treat monsters from the outside?

However, the next images on the Sky Screen quickly answered her current doubts.

[Ultraman Cosmos assumes a stance, easily dodging the monster's attacks before launching a counterattack.]

[He does not resort to overly violent strikes, giving the impression that he is holding back.]

[Finally, Ultraman Cosmos unleashes his finishing move.]

[Full Moon Rect.]

[Under the shroud of the Full Moon Rect, the monster's movements gradually calm down, and it then slowly departs.]

The people of Douluo Continent watched with bewildered expressions.

There is actually such a way to fight?!

In the reception room, Bibi Dong rested her chin on her fingers, nodding as she spoke softly:

"Is this the Warrior of Compassion? He truly lives up to the name, but what about those other two titles?"

However, her gaze shifted, not toward Xiao Che, but toward Qian Renxue, who had already returned to normal.

At the same time, Xiao Che also looked at Qian Renxue with an expression of keen interest.

Qian Renxue's cheeks were slightly flushed as she quickly tidied her appearance.

Then, at lightning speed, she slid to her knees to apologize to Xiao Che.

"My Lord! I am truly sorry! For the past hour, I have been most offensive. Whatever compensation you desire, the Consecrated Hall will satisfy it with all our might to make up for my rudeness toward you."

Xiao Che laughed out loud, saying between laughs:

"Qian Renxue, I still prefer the way you were before—unruly and defiant."

Xiao Che then coughed twice, a smile still on his face.

"I haven't thought of what compensation I want yet, so I'll reserve it for now. Just watch the Sky Screen properly for the moment."

Qian Renxue nodded, not daring to say another word.

After all, the person before her was an existence capable of destroying Douluo Continent with a wave of his hand.

Even knowing that he was an Ultra Warrior, she could never be so rude again after having acted that way.

"Your magnanimity, My Lord, I shall keep in my heart."

Bibi Dong turned her head back with a chuckle.

She considered this a point won back for herself.

She then asked:

"So, My Lord, why does Ultraman Cosmos have those other two titles?"

Xiao Che answered quite casually:

"Because the appearance of two of the Mysterious Four Ultras requires Ultraman Cosmos as a necessary condition. Furthermore, the Ultraman Cosmos we see now is not in his full-power form; like Dyna before him, he possesses other forms."

"But to have stronger forms and yet always use the most basic Luna Mode to help—isn't that just slacking off? Of course, that's just a joke."

Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue nodded.

Although Xiao Che was laughing happily, they certainly could not.

Even if Xiao Che didn't mind, they felt they had no right to laugh.

Xiao Che could laugh because he was an Ultra Warrior joking about another Ultra Warrior.

But as people of Douluo Continent who didn't even have the qualifications to be acknowledged by an Ultra Warrior, what right did they have to laugh at one?
