The Kyrieloid never expected King Joe to separate into four combat-capable units.
It was immediately overwhelmed and forced to crash from the sky.
"Die!!"
Under Shinjou's control, King Joe raised its right arm cannon and locked onto the Kyrieloid.
"Pedanium Particle Cannon—FIRE!"
Shinjou shouted as he smashed the launch button.
Brilliant light burst from the barrel, blasting straight through the Kyrieloid's body and completely annihilating it!
"Shinjou, target the Gate of Hell next!"
Captain Iruma issued a prompt order upon seeing his victory.
At this moment, the Gate of Hell was slowly opening.
Faintly eerie noises echoed from within, and several strange, monstrous arms had begun to extend outward.
Shinjou quickly controlled King Joe, raising the cannon and aiming directly at the gate.
At the same time, Tiga and Gallantmon readied themselves.
"Zepellion Ray!"
"Nirvana Purge!"
"Pedanium Particle Cannon!"
Three ultimate attacks were launched simultaneously by Tiga, Gallantmon, and King Joe.
BOOOOOOM!!!
Three radiant beams—each a different color—shone like miniature suns, ripping through the darkness and illuminating the heavens.
With an earth-shattering explosion, the Gate of Hell shattered into countless fragments.
No demon would step foot on Earth this day.
"We've won."
Tiga looked to the sky and nodded calmly.
He then turned to Gallantmon and King Joe, who also gave him a nod of acknowledgment.
"Fighting alongside you… not a bad feeling at all."
Shinjou smiled at Tiga, raising King Joe's claw in a respectful salute.
Tiga responded with a simple nod.
"Damn it! The angels lost to that demon, Tiga!"
"You monster! Give us back our angels!"
But in the midst of this hard-won victory, jarring voices rang out.
Many humans pointed at Tiga, hurling insults without restraint.
This took Tiga—and the entire TPC team—by surprise.
"What are you talking about?! The real demon was that ugly monster!"
"And what makes you think he's not a monster too? Isn't Tiga also inhuman?!"
"Tiga protected us!"
"Tiga started the fight, bringing destruction in the first place!"
The crowd split into two factions—those defending Tiga, and those supporting the Kyrieloid—arguing loudly.
No one had expected such a divide.
Clearly, quite a few people agreed with the Kyrieloid's ideology.
Inside Tiga, Daigo sensed the shift in public sentiment and fell silent, deep in thought.
"Huh? There's a ton of information on the screen… did something happen?"
Only then did Daigo notice the monitor. There was a flood of messages.
One name stood out—Dan Moroboshi, who had been calling for him repeatedly.
"SCP-class anomaly Ghidorah, capable of planetary destruction, and the objects used to summon it… have appeared in my world?"
Daigo's expression turned grim.
He had just finished the Kyrieloid battle and hadn't had time to check the screen.
He hadn't expected a new threat to emerge so quickly.
Daigo: What's going on? What's Ghidorah?
Dan Moroboshi: Thank goodness—you finally saw it.
Feng Yuan: There's an Ultra statue near you! And someone found the crystal and Heptagram!
Bruce Wayne: That guy's about to summon Ghidorah! You need to act fast!
Steve Rogers: It's a monster capable of destroying the entire planet!
Rhodey: And you can't even touch it!
Daigo: Hold up—what are you all even talking about?!
Everyone was shouting over each other—complete chaos.
Daigo couldn't make sense of it at all.
Dan Moroboshi: Alright, let me explain. While I talk, you need to find the man who appeared on the monitor!
Daigo: Got it.
Daigo focused on the screen.
It showed Seigo Masaki leading a group of people into an ancient ruin, preaching about Ghidorah.
"Our world has long suffered from alien and monster attacks. Can Tiga and the TPC really protect us? No—they can't. But I have found a new path to salvation!"
"That path… is the true god: Ghidorah!"
Seigo Masaki turned and pointed toward the nearby Ultra statue.
Naruto: Wait, what the hell? I thought he was talking about Ghidorah—why's he pointing at an Ultraman statue?
Daigo: What?! There's another Ultraman?!
Bruce Wayne: I get it now—he's pretending the Ultra statue is Ghidorah to boost his credibility. No one in Tiga's world has seen Ghidorah, and they don't know what that statue is. And since Ultramen are viewed as heroes with great prestige, he's using that to trick people into worshiping it.
Natasha: That's terrifying… to be able to come up with such a manipulative cultist scheme. This guy's a real monster.
Dan Moroboshi: Daigo, hurry! Find him—and read the data I sent you!
The screen was now full of Dan's detailed info on Ghidorah.
As Daigo finally absorbed it, he realized the gravity of the situation.
"Something this dangerous… I have to act fast!"
Tiga immediately launched into the sky, activating the Eye of Ultra to scan the ground and locate Seigo Masaki.
Unfortunately, Daigo didn't know who Masaki was, so he didn't think to ask Horii for the company's address.
"What's Tiga doing? Is he… looking for something?"
Rena asked, puzzled by his actions.
"I have a bad feeling about this."
Captain Iruma watched anxiously.
Meanwhile, deep beneath the ground—
"Ghidorah, save us…"
"Protect us…"
"My family was killed by monsters… bring them back to me…"
Under Masaki's indoctrination, the crowd fully believed the statue was Ghidorah.
One by one, they dropped to their knees in prayer, already forming the foundation of faith.
A closer look revealed their glassy eyes and sluggish movements—they were clearly under the influence of mind-altering drugs.
Masaki had dosed them beforehand, then used manipulative rhetoric and the Ultra statue to deceive them.
In just two hours, he had successfully gathered a large group of Ghidorah followers!
"Now, everyone, repeat after me."
"Descend upon us, Ghidorah—bring us the glorious end!"
As he spoke, the Heptagram badge, placed beneath the glowing eye of the Ultra statue, began to shine with blinding light.
A second later, glowing heptagram magic circles appeared beneath every follower's feet.
Anyone watching would've believed the statue had come to life.
"Descend upon us, Ghidorah—bring us the glorious end!"
The crowd chanted in unison, voices filled with fanaticism.
At that moment, the crystal in Masaki's hand began processing data at high speed.
His shadow on the ground… subtly shifted—
From a human form…
—to three serpent-like dragon heads.
