Gotham City, within the gloomy Batcave.

Having stayed up all night, Bruce Wayne held a cup of black coffee and looked at the alert on the screen, his pupils suddenly contracting.

Yet the other party did not seem to care at all, even directly making their data public.

This is exactly what I need...

Bruce took a deep breath and immediately clicked on that file.

He had prepared himself mentally; no matter what the opponent was... he had to find their physical weakness or energy operation pattern.

However, when he opened the first page of the file, his proud tactical brain was hit as if by a heavy hammer.

[Ultraman Gaia] [Birth Origin]: The incarnation of the Earth's terrestrial will, a Light Giant nurtured by the earth. [Base Height]: 50 meters. [Base Weight]: 42,000 tons. [Intra-Atmospheric Flight Speed]: Mach 20–25. [Arm Strength]: Can easily lift 100,000-ton class heavy objects. [Core Energy]: Earth's Light (endless circulating planetary might, as long as the Earth endures, the energy never ceases). [Finishing Ray]: Can easily destroy stars.

Bruce's gaze stared fixedly at the phrases "42,000 tons", "Mach 20", and "easily destroy stars", the veins on the back of his hand bulging out.

"Clack."

The custom ceramic coffee cup Bruce held dropped straight to the ground, shattering to pieces, yet he was completely unaware.

The world's greatest detective, the Dark Knight who was capable of toying with all of Gotham's criminals using tactics and intellect, blankly stared at the screen at this moment.

Height fifty meters? Weight forty-two thousand tons?

You call this "biological data"?!

How on earth do you counter this?! Use a Batarang to give a forty-thousand-ton giant a pedicure?!

Bruce stiffly turned his head to look at a secondary screen beside the Batcomputer. Suspended side by side there were several top-secret tactical documents he had drafted overnight:

Countermeasure Plan: Naruto Uzumaki Project

Countermeasure Plan: Shinobu Kocho Project

Countermeasure Plan: Ultraman Project

Looking at those titles, Bruce fell into a long, deep contemplation.

Before this overwhelming planetary-level might, the proud technology and tactics he mastered were simply as laughable as a baby's toys.

"Hoo..."

Bruce let out a heavy breath, closed his eyes, and when he opened them a few seconds later, that pair of profound eyes rekindled with an iron-willed, steadfast light.

"As long as it exists, there must be a limit. No matter how much time and resources it takes, even if I am facing a gods... I must find the corresponding means!"

"This is what Batman ought to do."

Meanwhile, within the group chat.

[The Underdog Who Wants to Be Hokage]: "Whoa! F-fifty meters? Forty-two thousand tons? In other words, Big Brother Lin Xiao is even bigger than the Nine-Tails? Wouldn't that mean he could flatten the Hokage Rock with a single kick?"

[Snow Queen of the Service Club]: "Now that I think about it, when Mr. Lin Xiao descended upon Chiba Prefecture without overturning the soil for a hundred miles around, it truly showed an extremely precise control over his power..."

[Smile Under the Wisteria Flowers]: "So it turns out that we were previously guarded by a true planetary will."

Lin Xiao looked at Naruto's amazement in the chat, along with a certain Dark Knight who was wordless but presumably losing hair at a frantic pace, and satisfactorily closed the chat group, flipping open a math textbook.

Today's miscellaneous ACG daily life was also so peaceful and quiet.

Teasing Batman makes me feel even better.

Lunch break.

Lin Xiao closed his math textbook, stretched, and decided to go to the vending machine behind the teaching building to buy a can of iced cola and get some fresh air.

The students passing by him unconsciously slowed their pace.

Everyone found that as long as they approached this Lin Xiao, they would inexplicably feel a warmth like a spring breeze, and even the fatigue of studying all morning dissipated quite a bit.

Until Lin Xiao walked up to the vending machine, his footsteps pausing slightly.

In the shadows beside the vending machine squatted a transfer student wearing the Sobu High School uniform.

At this moment, Miko Yotsuya was hugging her knees with both arms, staring blankly at the ants on the ground, radiating an ash-gray aura of I am already a useless person all over her body.

Why... is my life so bitter... Miko cried out desperately in her heart.

Ever since she awakened the Yin-Yang Eyes capable of seeing those twisted evil spirits a few months ago, she had been trying her utmost every day to act like I can't see anything.

Later on, when she came here to travel, she found that Chiba Prefecture basically had very few of those things, especially no powerful ones; it was as if they automatically vanished once they reached a critical threshold.

In order to get a good sleep, she had begged for her life just to transfer here.

She had to admit that Chiba Prefecture was indeed outrageously good, with only some tiny monsters around this school.

Even the air was permeated with a sacred aura.

This should have been the paradise Miko dreamed of.

However!

A sixty-meter-tall ultra-ancient monster suddenly appeared and flattened the buildings near her new home with a single kick!!!

Miko had been holding a convenience store plastic bag at the time, and her whole world had shattered.

You can pretend you can't see ghosts, but when a sixty-meter-tall dinosaur walks past you, you couldn't pretend you couldn't see it even if you gouged your eyeballs out!!

I finally escaped horror movies, only to be directly switched to a disaster film instead... Damn it, might as well let this world just be destroyed.

"Tap, tap."

A steady set of footsteps came from beside her.

Lin Xiao walked up to the vending machine, took out a coin, and inserted it. As he drew closer, Miko only felt that the comfortable, warm aura around her grew even more intense.

She subconsciously raised her head to look at the boy beside her.

The next second.

Miko's highlightless eyes widened into round circles, and she even subconsciously raised her hand to block her view!

I'm blinded! I'm going to be blinded!!!

In the eyes of ordinary students, Lin Xiao was merely a somewhat handsome, mild-tempered classmate.

Yet within Miko Yotsuya's field of vision,

what was standing before her was by no means any human boy?!

That was clearly a dazzling sun radiating red light!

That sacred, vitality-filled light was simply identical to the Light Giant who had shattered a monster with a single palm earlier... exacty the same!!!

"Clank."

A can of iced cola and a can of red bean soup rolled out from the vending machine.

Lin Xiao bent down to pick up the drinks, handed the can of red bean soup to Miko, and spoke in a gentle tone:

"Here. You don't look too well."

Miko blankly stared at the red bean soup extended before her.

Her gaze moved upward along that hand, looking at Lin Xiao's harmless face, and then sensing that familiar-beyond-recognition "light" on his body.

She swallowed a mouthful of saliva, her brain completely crashing, and a sentence blurted out without any thought:

"Y-you... are you that... Light Giant, Ultraman Gaia?"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Lin Xiao's motion of pulling the cola tab froze abruptly.

With a crunch, the aluminum pop-can in his hand was accidentally squeezed into several deep dents.

An eerie silence spread before the vending machine.

Lin Xiao looked at Miko, who was squatting on the ground trembling yet filled with utter shock.

He had thought his human identity was flawless.

As a result, the opponent's very first sentence stripped away his disguise completely!

Holy crap, caught?

Did you turn on cheats with those eyes?!
