Masaki Keigo's shadow gradually transformed into the shape of a three-headed dragon—Ghidorah.
The three dragon heads formed from shadows lunged at the shadows of the cultists in front of them.
Every shadow that was bitten lost a part of itself.
But the people themselves showed no wounds.
Instead, their skin grew increasingly pale, losing the vibrancy of the living.
Once Ghidorah devoured someone's entire shadow, the person turned to dust and vanished—erased from existence, as if they had never lived in this world at all.
Such an eerie and horrifying sight would terrify anyone who saw it.
Yet strangely, none of the cultists showed any fear. They watched the scene unfold with calm eyes.
Only Dr. Tango, huddled in a corner, trembled as he watched the nightmare before him.
"He's gone mad… Masaki Keigo has gone completely insane…"
Dr. Tango kept muttering, his hands trembling as he pulled out a TPC-issued communicator.
Things had spiraled far beyond his imagination—he had to contact TPC immediately.
"HAHAHAHA! All the sacrifices have been made! O great Lord of the Void, Ghidorah the Star-Eater—descend upon us now!"
As the final sacrifices vanished, Masaki Keigo shouted up toward the sky with manic fervor.
And in the next second, a massive black hole opened in the sky.
From within echoed three deep, beastly roars.
Ghidorah's three golden heads, crackling with lightning, slowly emerged from the void.
The sudden and surreal spectacle immediately caught the attention of the TPC.
"This is bad! A black hole just opened in the sky—some kind of monster is coming out!"
In the command center, Noroi pounded away at the keyboard, quickly relaying the incident and streaming the live footage to all team members.
The moment everyone saw Ghidorah appear on screen, they were utterly shocked.
"According to the data, it's at least 2,000 meters tall!"
Noroi stared at the calculated figures in disbelief and despair.
"What!? Two thousand meters!? That's insane!"
Shinjō was stunned.
Even monsters under a hundred meters had already caused endless trouble for humanity—how were they supposed to handle a monster twenty times that size!?
"Shinjō, pilot King Joe SC and head to the scene!"
"Vice-Captain Munakata, have Ijuin fly the Falcon 2—Lina and I will pursue in Falcon 1!"
Captain Megumi recovered from her initial shock with the decisiveness of a veteran commander and began issuing orders at once.
Then she looked toward the distant sky.
"So… this is what Dyna sensed?"
Ghidorah's three heads had fully emerged from the black hole—and began to attack immediately.
Golden lightning erupted from its body, striking the ground below in a thunderous storm.
Its mouths unleashed gravitational beams that swept through everything in their path, leveling buildings and slaughtering countless lives.
No one knew how many had died in Ghidorah's relentless onslaught.
As it fired its beams, a massive energy field formed around it—an ever-expanding gravitational distortion.
Within this field, gravity was warped. Some people floated upward, while others were crushed downward.
Then, the three heads opened their jaws wide and began to inhale.
From the surroundings, streams of blue energy surged into Ghidorah's mouths.
As the golden dragon absorbed more and more energy, everything in its vicinity withered to dust.
TPC Command Center
Noroi frantically worked the computer, his voice trembling.
"My god… it's generating a field that distorts gravity within a massive radius—don't get close, or you won't be able to control your movement! And it's absorbing life energy! Every organism, even the microbes in the soil—they're all being drained! If we let this continue, all life on Earth will be consumed!"
Desperately, he shared the gathered intel with everyone. His fingers shook as he typed, sweat pouring from his forehead.
So focused on monitoring Ghidorah's data, Noroi hadn't even noticed Dr. Tango's incoming transmission.
Meanwhile, Ghidorah rampaged, increasing the scope of destruction.
Everywhere it passed, gravity was twisted.
And perhaps for its own amusement, it deliberately made people float into the air—straight toward its mouths.
The terrified humans screamed and struggled, but no matter what they did, they couldn't escape their fate—being devoured alive by Ghidorah.
"STOP!"
Dyna arrived on the scene. Daigo, filled with urgency, shouted at Ghidorah.
Then, without hesitation, he unleashed the Zeperion Beam at the dragon.
Even if Ghidorah's body towered dozens of times higher than his own, Daigo had no intention of backing down!
But what he didn't expect—was for the Zeperion Beam, which had defeated countless foes, to pass right through Ghidorah's body as if it wasn't even there.
"What!?"
Daigo froze in disbelief.
"Damn monster—die!"
Just then, Shinjō arrived in King Joe SC and launched every missile it had.
But like the Zeperion Beam—every missile passed through Ghidorah, doing nothing.
"What the hell is going on...?"
Shinjō was completely dumbfounded.
Daigo quickly turned to the monitor and noticed Arashi Dan had explained something about Ghidorah's properties.
"Ghidorah cannot be captured by the universe. It's a projection—untouchable. You must kill the summoner, the person who acts as Ghidorah's eye in this world, before you can affect it."
Understanding now, Daigo looked again at the screen.
Masaki Keigo had stepped out, his eyes burning as he stared up at the majestic Ghidorah tearing through the sky.
"This is my true god… Ghidorah! How magnificent!"
"That divine figure—this is no mere monster or Ultraman! Ghidorah is the true savior! Please, destroy this sinful world and lead me to a higher dimension!"
"ROOAARR!!"
Ghidorah's three heads roared toward the heavens.
Golden lightning surged from its entire body, bombarding everything around it.
Even Dyna, King Joe SC, and Dukemon Crimson Mode were struck!
The overwhelming power blew the three of them back, sending them crashing to the ground.
"Cough… Do I really have to kill a human…?"
Now that Daigo knew the only way to defeat Ghidorah, he hesitated.
He had never killed before. The idea of doing so now filled him with resistance.
"ROOAARR!!"
Ghidorah's three mouths began to charge massive energy again.
Once the energy reached its peak, it unleashed gravitational beams once more!
Each one aimed at Dyna, Dukemon Crimson Mode, and King Joe SC!
"Hyaah!"
Daigo rose to his feet.
Just as he was about to dodge, he realized there were civilians and buildings behind him.
Instead of evading, he raised a massive barrier to intercept the beam.
