Am I the only one in this team who is not Ultraman?

Page 123

"I feel like I'm the one who snuck in; people who don't know me would think I'm an undercover agent."

This feeling has become increasingly apparent lately. Captain Stringman and the others only need to think about how to defeat the enemy, while Leo has a lot more to consider.

"So you want to recruit him?" Ampera pondered.

"I want to, but it's not easy. After all, the Special Investigations Bureau is watching him, and not just anyone can get into ESCG."

Leo was able to join ESCG because Director Sawai and Director Yoshioka vouched for him, and his past could withstand investigation.

Max, or rather Kaito Toma, has a completely blank past, and it's impossible to reveal his identity as Ultraman. How could they possibly let him join the defense team? This isn't a TV drama.

"So we're just going to leave it like this?"

"That's not it. I see that the armory is short-staffed, and I plan to send him there. With my reputation and position, it shouldn't be a problem for me to do that."

Leo thought for a moment, and realized that Ultraman Cosmos was also an example. He was now certain that Cosmos's human form was Haruno Musashi.

However, Haruno Musashi is from Monster Island and has never received any combat training. Otherwise, we could use Dr. Otomo's research as an excuse to bring him over.

"If you include Goroki, that makes ten Ultramen. Oh right, that guy is lying in the repair machine too."

It can only be said that Goroki was unlucky. His first official battle was like this. The key is that he is from the Special Investigation Division and rarely participates in regular battles. This time, Leo had to smooth things over for him.

"Besides these, there have been frequent disturbances in the Dark Universe recently. I heard that the Antirutians have rebelled and broken the seal on the evil Bogaru."

This matter caused quite a stir, not to mention that the evil Bogaru even went to the Imperial Star System to cause a huge disturbance. It happened only yesterday and the news has already spread throughout the entire Dark Universe forums. Leo was quite busy and only just found out about it.

"As expected, this is how it turned out." Apella was not surprised by this outcome at all. Despite her usual tyrannical demeanor, she actually saw through many things.

Mefilas is far less capable than Mephisto, and he can't control his subordinates. Once Antiruth confirms that the emperor is unwell, he will definitely plot something. Evil Bogaru is the biggest backer that guy can find.

"Rumors in the Dark Universe say that the evil Bogaru even severely injured the Alien Empera before leaving. What do you think of that?"

"Seriously injured?" Empera scoffed. "Given the strength of the evil Bogaru, it's quite remarkable that he managed to escape from my half-body."

Although he lacked the Dark Armor and lost his rationality, the Dark Emperor's strength remained formidable. Losing his mind didn't mean he lost his power; most of his power was still there.

While the evil Bogaru was indeed the strongest under Emperor, the gap between the Four Heavenly Kings and the Emperor was enormous. So, that guy was probably beaten to a pulp by the irritable Emperor and fled in disarray.

"If I hadn't been injured back then, and if that thing hadn't been so hard to kill, I wouldn't have chosen to seal it away."

Seeing the Emperor's displeased expression, it was clear that the evil Bogaru had indeed crossed the line by ignoring his orders and devouring many planets and civilizations. Leo had no liking for Bogaru either.

"I feel like the evil Bogaru will come to Earth after he escapes."

Leo had gotten used to Earth's irresistible charm. These days, all sorts of enemies liked to run towards Earth. If they weren't around, he could work a few less days of overtime.

The Antirulls must have heard about the powerful force on Earth, and they'll probably incite the evil Bogaru to come here.

"What exactly is the level of power of the Evil Bogaru?" Leo was quite concerned about this question, after all, he had just glanced at it and found that people like the Zettonians in the Dark Universe were worried about being targeted by the Evil Bogaru.

Well... how should I put it? If it were half a month ago, Emperor would have been very worried about the evil Bogaru coming after him, since at that time Leo only had Zetton and Dimaga as his two usable characters.

But now that the month is almost over, Emperor Abela took stock of Leo's fighting force.

First are Zetton and Dimaga. After their transformations, their fighting abilities have become completely stable. Emperor believes that he cannot defeat either of them without wearing the Dark Armor.

Among them, Dimaga's potential was fully developed, transforming him into Razor Dimaga, a dimensional monster. In addition to becoming stronger with each battle, he also possessed a dimensional realm similar to that of King Goldras. As long as the dimensional realm is immortal, Dimaga will not die. As long as Dimaga is not dead, he will become stronger with each battle.

So now Dimaga is thinking that his branch should be called Saint Seiya Dimaga, since he can't be killed, the second attack is ineffective, and he can become stronger when the space-time dimension expands.

As for Miss Zetton, according to Galactron, her potential has not yet reached its peak, and no one knows how far she will evolve in the future.

But how can we describe Miss Zetton's strength? Let's put it this way: this morning, Razor Demaga confidently challenged Miss Zetton, wanting to prove that Leo is only worthy of the strong.

Three minutes later, Razor Dimaga, covered in bumps, was forcibly thrown out of the time-space realm by Miss Zetton and made to wash the dishes in the house for the next month. He was also forbidden from sticking to Leo's side without Miss Zetton's permission.

There is also Galatron, the inheritor of the Goblin civilization and the pinnacle of Kusia's technology, who commands Leo's strongest mechanical army and possesses the power of red steel.

In addition, there is the most powerful undead super Grand King under Juda's command, which now belongs to Leo. If this thing is combined with two sufficiently powerful Spark Dolls, even Juda's brother and sister would have to get slapped twice before leaving.

The rest, such as Eleking, EX Pedanium Zetton, and Rainbow Kagachi, are not included. If Evil Bogard manages to escape from these four, Emperor Empera will personally hand over the position of Dark Emperor to it.

"Go ahead and beat him up," Emperor Abbot concluded. "And I've noticed that you seem to have assembled a force of four Heavenly Kings under your command."

"How so?" Leo was genuinely curious.

"Look, aren't the strategist Galatrom, the hero Demaga, the evil Zetton, and the mastermind Eleking very suitable?"

That makes a lot of sense, but Eleking's potential hasn't been fully developed yet. She also chose to actively contact Sphia, and Leo even used Sphia's materials for Grand King.

For monsters that have become powerful enough, Scia is an excellent source of nourishment for breaking through their own limits, and the Scia Barrier is also very useful.

"We'll see what happens then. Hopefully, that evil Bogaru won't cause any trouble... Hmm, he's back?"

Leo looked towards the door, and Emperor quickly crawled back into the Ultimate Fighting Device. The door to the command room opened, and Captain Gentoo, Daigo, and the others walked in chatting and laughing. After resting for half a day, their injuries had almost healed.

"Vice Captain, we're back!"

"Welcome back. It seems everyone is alright now." Looking at everyone jumping around, Leo was most relieved that he had bought Charlie's physiological restoration device.

If it weren't for the physiological repair device, which could save lives and ensure that this group of people could maintain their attendance rate every day, Leo would have been exhausted trying to protect the Earth on his own.

"This incident has really blown up too much. Sigh, it seems we still need to improve the speed of our fighter jets."

"It's not feasible for now. The highest meeting this morning has already decided that all branches should speed up the production of the Prometheus. The new system is expected to be completed today. Fujimiya and Gamu, you two should rest for a while before going to help out."

Yesterday, King Goldras really scared TPC into having a fear of insufficient firepower. Good heavens, a global monster disaster! TPC has now decided to prioritize increasing firepower.

The Zelda missile, the Prometheus, and the latest combat robots are all under full-scale construction. Leo is already looking for unfortunate victims to serve as stepping stones for Earth's journey into space.

Chapter 193 Who dares to disturb Vice Captain Leo's love life?

It was a peaceful day. If we ignore the dozens of Golzaba and Garula that appeared in the morning, Earth was quite peaceful today. At least there was no crisis that required the ESCG to be mobilized.

I dreamt that Fujimiya and I were busy helping design the latest main control system for the Prometheus. In order to catch up with the schedule, even many geniuses from the Alchemy Star were called in to help.

"Captain, with TPC expanding their recruitment recently, will our team get any new members?"

Hong Kai was a little curious. Captain Gentoo was completely unaware of this matter, since he had been lying down the whole time. He could only look to Leo for help.

“Hmm, no.” Leo thought for a moment. “Besides me, each of you has at least a year of experience in your respective defense teams. No matter how outstanding the new recruits are, they will at most be assigned to other defense teams to fill your vacancies.”

It would be stressful to let anyone into this Ultraman team. Given the intensity of ESCG's usual battles, the higher-ups wouldn't just let anyone in.

As for Leo? At first, some people did have reservations about Leo becoming the vice-captain of ESCG as soon as he joined TPC, but now who dares to question Leo's abilities? This team would probably fall apart without Leo.

But there aren't many people like Leo, so ESCG will definitely maintain its current situation.

"ESCG's current combat strength is actually more than enough. It's just that the enemies we usually deal with are too strong, so we keep crashing. From now on, we'll each have a Prometheus. I don't believe we can't defeat them!"

Seeing that Leo seemed to be serious, Komon and the others quickly shook their heads. "Let's forget it, Vice Captain. These equipment should be given to friendly forces first. We already have enough military equipment, King Joe."

Just kidding. It's one thing if you crash a fighter jet once or twice, or even the King Joe Bridge. But what if you crash the Prometheus?

At that point, let alone the armory, even Chief Yoshioka would be rushing over with a gun to clean house, and Leo wouldn't be able to protect them.

"Actually, there was no other way to expand manpower. Yesterday's battle resulted in some losses for all departments. Even the TPC reserves and the Special Investigation Division were sent to the battlefield."

Thankfully, Earth had Golza and Melba in the past. If they were all ordinary Zepelios like Garula, they wouldn't be able to break through Garatron's defenses. Garatron really showed his true strength.

Just as Leo was thinking about whether to go out for dinner with the whole family when he got home tonight, he noticed that Hong Kai was swaying rhythmically with his headphones on. "Hong Kai, what are you listening to?"

"Ah, it's nothing, just listening to music. It's a very popular singer named Chris Maya. I quite like her songs. The vice-captain probably doesn't know her, right?"

Everyone knows that Leo has never paid much attention to singers, but what's unexpected is that he actually nodded this time.

“I know her,” Leo said, resting his chin on his hand. “But is she very popular?”

"You know Chrismaya but don't know if she's famous? Vice Captain, you're really strange."

Komon also had a deep impression of the name Chris Maya; he often listened to her songs, and her image appeared in many street advertisements.

Fujiwara Juri was also somewhat surprised, "Chris Maya is more than just popular, she's said to be in the top 30 of this year's global singer poll."

"And he was last year's TPC Brand Ambassador." The captain of the String Man team also remembered this star singer.

Honestly, it would be strange if Leo, at his age, didn't know Chris Maya. Hong Kai even handed Leo an album, which was a signed edition by Chris Maya, and it's very expensive on the market.

Looking at the face on the album, Leo was certain he hadn't mistaken her for someone else. "It's not my fault. I knew her before she debuted, and I haven't paid attention to the entertainment industry since."

Leo never paid much attention to the entertainment industry, but when he heard that he actually knew Chris Maya, even Captain Lianren put down his coffee cup and stared at him in astonishment.

"Vice-Captain, do you know Maya?"

"I know her. She's from high school, two years ahead of me. When we first met, she would ask me all the time what I would do if I found out I was from outer space."

Leo was startled at the time, wondering if the Special Investigation Division had come to investigate him. Later he found out that it wasn't like that. Maya had just always thought of herself as an alien.

At the time, Chris Maya said that she wanted to be a star singer in the future, but Leo did not expect that she would not only actually take this path, but also become so famous.

"I never expected the vice-captain to know Chris Maya... Could you get me an autograph?"

"That was several years ago. People probably don't even remember me. I'm just feeling a bit sentimental because so many years have passed."

"How did the vice-captain and Chrismaya meet?" Hong Kai seemed to have developed a gossipy nature and was very curious about these past events.

Everyone realized something; maybe Leo was just putting on an act for everyone. In reality, the girl who had dinner and dated with Leo before was actually Chris Maya. There had been rumors before that Chris Maya's boyfriend was a member of the TPC defense team.

"The school rooftop is not very popular, so my friends and I usually have lunch there for peace and quiet. Maya was similar; she had many suitors in high school because she was very beautiful."

"Does the vice-captain like her too?"

Leo glanced at the poster. Hmm, it didn't look as good as Empera, and her temperament was inferior to Miss Renlong's. It wasn't that Leo liked the "three-no" attribute; it was just that the people who liked him and the people he liked happened to be "three-no".

"No."

Seeing Leo's decisive rejection, everyone was somewhat discouraged. It seemed they had overthought things; they had been too concerned about Leo's love life.

"To be honest, the vice-captain is actually more popular than Chrismaya."

After Captain Stringman said that, everyone realized that it seemed to be true. Leo's reputation and fame were actually much higher than Chris Maya's, especially after he defeated Lava Golza while piloting the Armored King Joe.

While you can buy a signed CD of Chris Maya for a bit more money, Leo knows that there are always people online who are willing to pay high prices for all his signed items.

Galatron even suspected that if she ever ran out of money in the future, she could sell Leo's water bottle and his old schoolbag, and she was guaranteed to make money.

"Isn't everyone about the same?" Leo thought for a moment. Daigo and the others were actually quite famous. If you included their popularity as Ultraman, then they would truly be unstoppable.

It seems I still need to introduce Leo to someone, Captain Gento thought to himself. He was quite concerned about Leo, but unfortunately Fujiwara didn't have any romantic feelings for him, and Mayumi from the nurses' club already had a boyfriend.

"It's about time to go get lunch." Leo glanced at the time; everyone was a little hungry. "Let's go together."

But at that moment, the door to the command room opened automatically, and Renlong, dressed in a blue and white dress, stood in the doorway. She glanced at everyone with a calm gaze, a little surprised, but her expression remained unchanged. "Is Leo here?"

"Ren!?" Leo stood up in surprise. "What are you doing here?"

"I was worried you wouldn't eat lunch properly, so I came all this way. I hope I didn't bother you?"

Leo then noticed that Miss Renlong was carrying a lunchbox, while Daigo and the others were even more surprised, as this was the ESCG command center, and not just anyone could come here.

No, we shouldn't worry about that now. This girl, who looks as beautiful as a goddess, is actually here to see the vice-captain!?

Miss Renlong's appearance and temperament are absolutely top-notch by human aesthetic standards, and it's not hard to guess what kind of feelings she has for Leo from the way she looks at him.

"We have to go, we have to go, otherwise we might not even have lunch and we'll be full by the time we get there." Everyone hurriedly got up to leave, but before Leo could even call out, the base alarm went off, and the eyes of Captain Stringman and the others instantly sharpened.

Leo quickly started using the computer. "An unidentified spaceship has appeared near the moon, and at the same time, a meteorite is flying towards Earth. There are signs of life."

"We'll be enough. Vice Captain, you'll be in charge of guarding the command center for easier dispatching." Captain Xianren and the others had grim expressions. These days, the enemy really didn't know what was good for them. Why did they have to choose a time like this to come?

"Uh..." Leo didn't even have time to refuse before the group grabbed their equipment and ran off. Bolt was so fast that he cried, and before leaving, he gave Leo a thumbs up.

Renlong was certainly not oblivious to what these people were thinking. A faint smile appeared on his lips. "They are quite an interesting group of people."

"Were you surprised when you saw them?"

"Well, apart from Tiga, Gaia, and Agul, I've only ever seen them as Ultraman."

Renlong pulled up a chair and sat down next to Leo. "It seems they're quite concerned about your love life."

"It's more accurate to say I'm a little too concerned," Leo said, scratching his face helplessly. "How did you even think of coming over?"

"Since you mentioned before that Daigo, one of your teammates, has a girlfriend who brings him lunch, I think you would be looking forward to the same treatment. How does that feel?"

Leo hadn't expected Renlong to remember something so clearly, but he was still very happy, after all, his Miss Renlong was so beautiful, yet she loved him.

Renlong could tell from Leo's eyes that he was secretly happy but embarrassed to show it. It was like a child showing off his treasure, but he had to remain humble and not be too smug.

Renlong was exasperated that the person she liked was acting like a child when it came to relationships, but the smile on her lips betrayed her. In fact, she thought Leo was pretty great.

"How did you get in?" Leo really didn't expect Renlong to appear here.

“Just walk in. I have a status at TPC, but this is my first time here.” Renlong opened the lunchbox; the food was still warm and plentiful.

With no one around, Empera simply crawled out. Firstly, she was hungry, and secondly, she despised Miss Renlong's sneaking away, and selectively forgot that she had been sitting in Leo's lap eating oranges that morning.

Renlong didn't care. She was just there to assert her ownership. Along the way, she asked many people for directions, specifically asking where ESCG's Vice Captain Leo was, so she could bring him food.
