Zoiger never expected her opponent to pull off such a move — swallowing Dika's beam directly into her mouth. It was like gulping down molten lava, and the burning agony spread through her entire body.
The stream of energy continued without end. Unable to withstand it any longer, Zoiger's body went limp — and with a deafening boom, she exploded right before Dika's eyes.
"We won!"
"Amazing!"
"That's it?!"
"He won just like that?"
"The battle barely started!"
Everyone was stunned — but also overjoyed. They hadn't expected Ultraman Tiga to be this powerful, destroying the monstrous bird in an instant.
After learning Yu Zhou's fighting style, Dika had adopted the same tactic — opening every battle with overwhelming force.
Perhaps practice really does make perfect — this method of combat proved incredibly effective.
Once Zoiger's body exploded in front of him, Dika seemed to receive new instructions from Yu Zhou's consciousness. Without hesitation, he soared into the sky and disappeared among the stars.
For a long moment, the people below could only gaze at the light streaking toward space, each lost in their own thoughts.
Yu Zhou himself had already taken off into the air when Dika's battle began.
Crossing both hands before his forehead, his body turned silver and blue —
Tiga Miracle Type.
At a time like this, he had no choice but to use that form.
He spun rapidly in the air, and one after another, multiple copies of himself separated and flew outward — no pause, no hesitation.
Each duplicate scattered in different directions, spreading across the entire planet.
As long as his energy held, Yu Zhou didn't stop creating more. Only when the colour timer on his chest began flashing red did he finally halt.
But instead of resting, Yu Zhou flew straight into space.
No energy? Then I'll replenish it.
Tiga's Miracle Type could create miracles after all.
Approaching the blazing sun, Yu Zhou was engulfed by searing waves of heat and radiant light.
Although Masaki had once given him a miniature plasma spark to recharge with, the direct power of sunlight was far more efficient.
"Recharge!"
He raised both hands toward the sun, channelling its immense energy through the Miracle form.
Light and heat converted into power, flooding into the colour timer until it glowed a brilliant azure once again.
"Duplicate."
Fully recharged, Yu Zhou began creating clones once more — each one shooting back toward Earth.
Zoiger's numbers were vast.
So Tiga's numbers… had to be even greater.
Clone after clone, Yu Zhou became like a machine of light, endlessly producing Tiga duplicates — ten, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand.
He didn't even know how long he kept going. Eventually, exhausted, he descended onto Venus to rest for a while.
Meanwhile, on Earth…
Many nations were at their wits' end.
Zoiger's endless attacks had devastated cities across the world. Smaller countries, powerless to defend themselves, pleaded for help from the great powers — but even those were overwhelmed.
Each nation's cities were already in ruins. How could they protect anyone else?
These monsters weren't just dangerous — they were numerous.
Even the use of large-scale destructive weapons had backfired; though several Zoigers were destroyed, the resulting collateral damage left cities in complete devastation.
And still, Ultraman Tiga had not yet appeared.
Even if he did… how could one Tiga fight so many monsters at once?
"Report! Satellite detection shows a large number of unidentified objects entering from space!"
"What?!"
"Don't tell me it's another Zoiger swarm!"
Every country with satellites soon received the same alert — countless unknown entities rushing toward Earth from space.
Panic set in among world leaders. If this was another monster invasion, then humanity was doomed.
"Commander! There's a new update!"
At the Chinese command centre, officers scrambled to make sense of the data.
"What is it? Have the creatures already entered the atmosphere?"
In the commander's mind, the "unidentified flying objects" could only mean one thing — more monsters. After all, only Zoiger had appeared in such massive numbers before.
"No, sir! Look at this!"
The communications officer, his face glowing with excitement, brought up the live feed on the main screen.
"This is…"
On the screen — countless Ultraman Tigas were descending through Earth's atmosphere, scattering across the globe to the sites of the monster attacks.
But these Tigas… were all silver and blue — the Miracle Type.
There was no time to question it. Seeing the countless Tigas fill the skies, the commander's eyes welled up with tears of relief.
"Humanity… is saved!"
And not just in China — every nation that could see the feed reacted the same way.
Thousands upon thousands of Tigas rushed toward Earth, diving into the skies above burning cities, charging into battle against Zoiger's swarms.
"Tiga has appeared!"
"Ultraman Tiga, go!"
"Tiga! Defeat those monsters!"
"Tiga!!"
Around the world, voices cried out in hope and faith.
At the brink of despair, there was now one final light — Tiga.
At first, most people had only seen Zoiger's invasion through the news and thought it wasn't a big deal.
But now, witnessing the destruction firsthand, they finally understood just how terrifying a monster swarm truly was.
The silver-blue Tigas outnumbered even the Zoiger army.
In some places, two Tigas fought one Zoiger together.
In others, Tigas didn't even bother using beams — they simply overwhelmed the creatures with pure strength, pummelling them into the ground.
Everywhere, humanity cheered.
The monsters that had destroyed their homes were finally being crushed.
Justice — and vengeance — burned bright.
One by one, the Tigas destroyed the Zoiger swarms.
After clearing one city, they regrouped and charged toward the next, forming dazzling legions of light.
Soon, what was once a world covered in ruins became a battlefield filled with radiant energy — and the monsters were no more than wreckage.
At last, the final Zoiger, staring at the sky filled with thousands of Tigas, let out a roar of despair.
Its crimson eyes widened, it formed a fireball in its hands — and slammed it into its own chest.
With a massive explosion, it self-destructed.
"It's over…"
Resting on Venus, Yu Zhou felt the memory feedback from a few of his clones and let out a deep breath.
It was finally done.
The Zoiger swarm was gone.
The world was saved.
He couldn't possibly absorb all the memories of his duplicates — his brain couldn't handle that much data.
Once the mission was done, he planned to dissolve all of them.
That was his plan.
But just as he was about to do so, something strange rippled through his consciousness.
On Earth…
High above, where the Tigas had gathered, dark clouds began to swirl.
Thunder crackled. From within the storm, a massive stone gates slowly emerged, pulsing with black and violet light.
The colossal gate creaked open, revealing nothing but an endless, abyssal darkness beyond.
