Countless fragments of debris rained to the ground—the remnants of Red King after being obliterated by a single strike from Camearra's whip.
The "Giant Hand That Rends the Universe" had been smashed to pieces with a single lash.
Batton, circling high in the sky, screeched in surprise. But it didn't retreat. Using its aerial advantage, it spewed scorching flames toward Camearra.
The golden whip reappeared in her hands, slicing through the fire midair, splitting it perfectly in two.
Flames surged past her sides, a wave of heat radiating outward—but Camearra remained completely unscathed.
Batton shrieked, noticing its flames cut in half, and dived straight at her—beak sharp, aiming to pierce her with lethal precision.
This wasn't just any bird. Years ago, even Lord Zoffy had been injured badly by this creature.
Its beak contained two venom sacs, each brimming with deadly toxin. One strike could peel skin off even the strongest warrior.
Camearra didn't flinch. The golden whip vanished as she prepared to face Batton head-on.
She spread her hands wide, gathering light energy from the air. Her arms formed an L-shape, and she unleashed a dazzling beam toward the charging Batton.
The beam hit with unstoppable force. Batton, caught by its momentum, had no chance to evade.
A massive explosion lit the skies, bright enough to illuminate the darkened ground like daytime.
Eleking, observing the flash, realized two of the monsters near the shelter had just been annihilated.
It let out a shrill, alien cry and hurried toward Camearra, causing the ground to quake with each step.
Arcs of electricity surged across its body, intent on stunning her with its raw power.
Camearra kept her distance, levitating gracefully, avoiding any physical contact.
She unleashed another beam, aiming to dispatch this ordinary threat as efficiently as possible.
Eleking responded, spinning its head tentacles at incredible speed, shooting crescent-shaped energy blades from its mouth.
Pa pa pa pa pa…
Each blade was absorbed by Camearra's light, finally striking Eleking directly. The monster's body froze, then erupted violently in a dazzling explosion.
Peeking from the shelter, the villagers watched in awe.
"An Ultraman… another Ultraman!"
But this one was different from the first.
The earlier appearance had been Tiga; this Ultraman was unfamiliar—her body suggested a female warrior.
Having cleared the three monsters near the shelter, Camearra immediately contacted Yu Zhou.
The Earth was in chaos, countless monsters now roaming freely.
Receiving the message as if by telepathy, Yu Zhou was shocked.
He hadn't expected such a catastrophe to occur during his absence.
If only he hadn't withdrawn his other self…
The Earth was now teetering on the brink of apocalypse. No—this was humanity's endgame.
"Dika… forget it."
He had considered sending Dika to help—but one Ultraman alone would likely achieve little.
"Looks like I'll have to do it myself again."
Yu Zhou knew there was no other choice. Only he could deploy another incarnation to handle this overwhelming swarm.
Otherwise, where would all these Ultramen come from to fight the monsters?
Suddenly, several spatial vortices twisted nearby.
Figures emerged from these distortions.
Yu Zhou's previously forced optimism plummeted to rock bottom.
Dark Zagi. Greeza. Zog. Etelgar…
These newcomers were not to be underestimated.
Dark Zagi—a dark version of Ultraman Noa.
Zog—the ultimate boss from Ultraman Gaia.
Greeza—a void entity, one of the dark messengers.
Among the dark messengers were Etelgar's minions and the Strum aliens—agents of Fukuide Kei.
Finally, there was the cosmic witch, Murnau, encountered in the Ultraman Orb movie.
Even Etelgar, whom Yu Zhou had once defeated en masse in the Dyna universe, now appeared from a parallel timeline untouched by him.
"How are we supposed to fight this…?"
Yu Zhou assessed the situation. Belial was still engaged with Alien Empera, effectively sidelined.
Even if Belial could join in, whether they could defeat these threats was still uncertain.
"Looks like there's no other choice."
Deep within Yu Zhou's body, a reservoir of energy—the Shining Power—stirred.
A surge of radiant light burst forth, enveloping him completely. Infinite light energy flowed through his body, spilling outward in shimmering brilliance.
The surrounding enemies—monsters and Dark Ultramen alike—had their attention drawn immediately, including Belial, mid-battle with Empera.
"This form is… irritating," Belial grumbled, gripping his Ultimate Battler, but continued to fight.
He craved the energy of the plasma spark, which, in essence, was a form of light energy.
"When did so many of them appear?"
Belial's gaze swept across the battlefield. Dark Zagi, Angel Zog, Etelgar, Greeza…
All formidable opponents—but with the Reiblood lineage coursing through his veins, Belial dismissed them.
After all, Reiblood had ruled the universe for tens of thousands of years.
"Fight properly. I'll handle these for now," Yu Zhou said, turning toward Angel Zog.
He decided to start with the "smaller fry." Of the new arrivals, Zog seemed the easiest target.
Zog, however, was displeased—this towering light giant had immediately charged him upon transforming.
Did this mean he was considered a mere lackey?
Fuming, Zog rushed forward to confront Yu Zhou head-on.
