Chapter 301 The Gift
Just then, a dazzling light flashed.
A giant appeared before them, then transformed into a beam of light and charged forward.
"It's Ultraman Tiga!"
Lina exclaimed in surprise, completely unaware that Da Gu behind her had already disappeared.
Almost instantly, a loud thud, like a heartbeat, began to beat violently.
That was Ultraman Tiga's timer; the powerful impact caused his energy to be consumed rapidly.
The timer started flashing violently.
Fortunately, Ultraman Tiga successfully stopped the massive impact.
However, Ultraman Tiga could not hold on for much longer at this point, but Ultraman Naga still hadn't appeared!
Just as Ultraman Tiga's arms trembled violently, his energy was about to run out, and he could no longer support the terrifying weight of the Supreme Snail Daragon, Lin Yeming, far away in the command room of the TPC base, saw the frantically flashing red light on Tiga's chest on the screen and frowned.
"This kind of training is too difficult..." he thought to himself.
Making Daigo face an enemy far stronger than usual is a necessary part of his growth, but this behemoth weighing 200,000 tons is clearly beyond Tiga's normal tolerance limit. This is no longer a training exercise, but a potentially fatal crisis.
Besides, Ultraman Tiga isn't Triga.
He couldn't wait any longer.
Although his transformation device, the Naga Holy Sword, was not with him at the moment, it was not an obstacle for him.
The deep connection with light makes the transformation device more of a guiding and focusing tool than an absolute necessity.
While Captain Megumi and Nori were engrossed in the battle situation on the screen, Lin Yeming silently stood up and strode towards the command room.
"Advisor Yeming? Where are you going?" Jujian Hui noticed his movements and asked hurriedly. Lin Yeming didn't turn his head, his tone urgent but firm: "I'm going to buy some time for Tiga! We can't let him fight alone!" As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed out of the command room.
A few seconds later, Nori reported in surprise, "Captain! Advisor Lin... he's left the base in his spare test fighter, the Snow White! Is he heading straight to the battlefield? That's too dangerous!" Captain Megumi looked at the precarious Tiga on the screen, then at the Snow White that had already flown out of the base, her eyes filled with complex emotions. In the end, she didn't stop him, but said in a deep voice, "Trust him! Nori, provide navigation and cover for the Snow White as much as possible!"
Like a white lightning bolt, the Snow White streaked across the sky and sped toward that sea.
Inside the cabin, Lin Yeming quickly shut down all external communication devices, cutting off direct contact with headquarters to prevent his next move from being monitored in real time.
As his mind focused, the dormant power of light within him began to awaken and resonate.
While conducting experiments in Kumamoto City, Masaki Keigo suddenly saw the Naga Holy Sword emit a dazzling light before disappearing.
"Naga!" A dazzling light burst forth in the cockpit of the Snow White, but strangely it was confined to the small space and did not destroy the fighter jet.
The light enveloped the fighter jet, which was then smoothly placed behind an uninhabited island and concealed.
At the same time, Lin Yeming used Ultraman's ability to create a holographic image of "Lin Yeming" with a life force inside the Snow White.
This image was enough to fool the satellite's rough scan, creating the illusion that he was still inside the aircraft.
His true form had already transformed within the towering pillar of light—Ultraman Naga, reporting for duty! But this time, the Naga that appeared was different from the usual.
His body expanded rapidly in the light, from the normal 53 meters to a height of 200 meters, which was close to that of the Supreme Snail Daragon!
This was a demonstration of his pushing light energy to its limit. Although it consumed a great deal of energy, it was a necessary choice when facing an opponent of such size! The enormous Naga descended beside Tiga like a mountain. He nodded to Tiga, whose energy was almost depleted, conveying the message, "Leave it to me."
Without hesitation, he turned around, assumed a fighting stance, and took the initiative to face the giant snail Daragon, who had just recovered from the shock of the impact and was still furious!
"It's Ultraman Naga! He's here too! And... he's become huge!" Lina exclaimed from the ground.
Shinjou was also excited: "Two Ultramen! Now there's hope!" However, Naga did not rashly launch a powerful attack.
He knew that the giant beast before him was not an evil creature, but a mother who had gone berserk due to misunderstanding and worry about her child.
Forcibly defeating it is not the best strategy, and may even escalate the conflict; misunderstandings must be resolved.
While skillfully dodging Daragon's furiously swung giant tentacles and terrifying impacts, he tried to transmit gentle, benevolent Ultra psychic energy.
“Stop attacking! We are not the enemy! Your child is safe!” However, Daragon’s perception was completely clouded by anger and worry. The Naga’s telekinesis was like a stone sinking into the sea. Instead, because it saw the Naga “blocking” between it and Daragon, the attack became even more frantic.
Just then, Ultraman Tiga, whose energy had recovered slightly, also realized the key.
Instead of joining the attack on the mother animal, he quickly flew to the side of the little snail Darabang, who was trembling with fear and chirping on the shore.
Tiga stretched out his hands, radiating a soft light, to protect little Darabon. At the same time, he focused all his thoughts, using the simple connection he had established with Darabon through Lina and the translator as a bridge, to more clearly and strongly direct his perceptions of little Darabon's longing for its mother, its dependence on her, and its unharmed state to the giant mother beast Daragon! "Your child is here! It's alright! We are protecting it!" Tiga shouted with both action and thought.
This time, communication worked!
As Naga managed to deflect the mother beast Daragon's ferocious attack once again, it suddenly sensed a pure, familiar, and reassuring wave emanating from the direction of the coast—the most genuine emotion of its child! Its massive attack abruptly halted, and its crimson eyes looked past Naga towards the little Daragon, protected by Tiga, who was emitting urgent yet soothing cries towards it.
Taking advantage of this moment, Naga decisively gathered energy and activated the Soothing Beam, calming the mother beast down.
Little Dharambang also tried his best to convey the message: "Mom! I'm okay! They're not bad people! They're helping me find you!" The real, blood-related connection instantly overwhelmed the anger and misunderstanding caused by Itabashi Mitsuo's fabricated distress signal.
The rage in Darragon's eyes receded like the tide, replaced by a profound sense of bewilderment, confusion, and regret and fear at the realization that he might have made a grave mistake.
Its mountain-like body ceased its attack, emitting a low, complex whimper filled with apology and uncertainty, as its enormous tentacles cautiously and tentatively reached towards Little Darbang.
Naga and Tiga exchanged a glance and both breathed a sigh of relief.
Naga deactivated his massive, energy-consuming form, returning to his normal 53-meter height. The timer on his chest began to flash, but he remained vigilant.
Tiga also relaxed his defensive stance.
The mother animal, Daragon, slowly and very gently approached the shore. She lowered her head and touched little Daragon with her tentacles to make sure her child was safe.
Little Darabong nuzzled against his mother affectionately, making joyful noises.
The truth came out.
The mother beast finally realized that she had been deceived and provoked. She raised her head and looked at Naga and Tiga, who had exhausted themselves trying to stop her, her eyes filled with gratitude and deep regret.
It let out a long, peaceful cry, as if thanking someone, or perhaps expressing remorse. It pointed its antennae to the sky, then to itself and its children, indicating that they were about to leave.
Naga and Tiga nodded, indicating that they understood.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the enormous mother beast Daragon, accompanied by her cub Darabon, began to emanate a soft light. Her massive body gradually became ethereal and transparent, eventually transforming into specks of starlight, like rising dandelions of light, slowly drifting towards the sky, disappearing beyond Earth's atmosphere, and returning to the vast universe.
The crisis was finally resolved in the most ideal way.
All that remained was a palm-sized, multicolored shell where the mother beast had been.
