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

"Grandma!!!"

Leo's voice came from the doorway; he had rushed back. This time, Zetton and Dimaga were also there, so the whole family was finally together.

Chapter 191 Zoffy: ?

In the Land of Light, Zoffy, the captain of the Ultra Space Garrison, has been busy with many things lately. Hikari, the director of the Space Science and Technology Bureau, has been missing for several days. The four Ultra Brothers are still on Earth after sealing away Ultra Killer Saurus many years ago.

The new generation of Ultraman is still growing, and the Space Garrison is currently weaker than ever before. They can only rely on Taro and Ace to lead the other Ultraman to maintain peace in the universe, while also keeping a close eye on the movements in the dark universe.

The Dark Universe has been in turmoil lately. It is said that the Dark Emperor Empera clashed with Juda, who was resurrected prematurely for unknown reasons. After a fierce battle, both sides were severely injured.

The whereabouts of Judas's undead Super Grand King and the Dark Armor of the Empera aliens are still unknown (it's embarrassing to say they were stolen). The Empera aliens are severely injured and seem to have become exceptionally violent, even extinguishing many stars in the Dark Universe.

Under such circumstances, the Land of Light must be constantly on guard against the Dark Universe instigating a war, and Zoffy, as the captain of the Space Garrison, needs to pay close attention to the changing situation in the universe.

"Brother Zoffy." A young-looking Ultraman approached Zoffy. "Why didn't you send me, but instead sent Brother Max to Earth?"

"Mebius, you need to use your job title when you're at work." Zoffy's tone was slightly stern, after all, Mebius was too impatient.

Ultraman, referred to as Mebius, immediately stood at attention. "Understood, Captain Zoffy. So... is it because my abilities aren't up to par?"

Seeing that Mebius seemed a little aggrieved, Zoffy shook his head and softened his tone, saying that this young man was still too hasty.

“At first, I did consider entrusting this mission to you, but Father of Ultra said that Earth, where this mission is to be carried out, is extremely dangerous. You have not yet had any real combat experience and lack sufficient experience, so you may lose your life.”

“You have great potential, but before that, focus on your studies. Max’s abilities are more suitable for this mission.”

Mebius was well aware of Max's strength. Max wasn't much older than him, yet he was already a planetary civilization observer at a young age, capable of carrying out missions independently, and his skills were recognized by the Ultra Brothers.

He is considered to have great potential and can become a reliable senior like an older brother to the new generation of Ultraman.

"But if it's that dangerous, will Brother Max be alright?"

“Max is very strong and has mastered many skills. Even facing powerful enemies like Tyrant and Zetton would not be a problem.”

Back then, Max's assessment was personally conducted by Zoffy. Aside from the innate problem of relatively low energy reserves, Max was an excellent warrior in all aspects, not to mention that he later obtained the Max Galaxy equipment.

With these, although the task is quite challenging, Max should be able to...

Before Zoffy could finish his thought, Ultraman Powered rushed over in a panic.

"Captain Zoffy, we've received an urgent Ultra Sign from Max—it's a distress signal!"

"What did you say?!" Zoffy was stunned. He did some quick calculations on his fingers. Max had only left the Land of Light a few days ago. Normally, he should have only been on Earth for half a day. He was already sending out Ultra Signs for help in half a day?!

"It's true. Max's Ultra Sign must have been issued in an emergency. The situation might be more complicated than we thought!"

Ultra Signature is an essential skill for Ultraman, enabling them to transcend time and space and instantly reach the Land of Light. It is an extremely advanced means of communication.

"So, Max is in danger right now?" Zoffy thought for a moment. "I'll set off right now and get there as fast as I can!"

"Captain Zoffy, it's too late." Powered quickly pressed down on Zoffy's shoulder.

“I know, but if even Max is struggling to handle this situation, then the situation over there must be extremely urgent. I’m not just doing this to save him.”

Even if Max dies in battle, he can be brought back to life using life-fixation technology. Even if he unfortunately ends up with no remains, Zoffy's priority is the Earth, which he would sacrifice his life to protect.

“No, I mean Max sent another Ultra Signature.” Powered pointed to the Ultra Signature in the sky. “He said it seems like everything is fine now.”

Zoffy fell into deep thought. One second he sent an urgent Ultraman autograph, and the next he sent a message saying he was fine. What was he trying to do?

However, the energy reaction is indeed Max's. Ever since the five brothers were almost killed on Planet Gogoda after being tricked by Yapool with fake Ultra Signatures, they have put a lot of effort into the anti-counterfeiting measures for Ultra Signatures.

It's frustrating to think about Yapool. When he was sealed away by the Ultra Brothers, Yapool, who had merged with Saulus, managed to separate and escape, and even became an evil general of the Dark Four Heavenly Kings.

But it seems that Max's side is fine for the time being, Zoffy breathed a sigh of relief. The main problem is that the Dark Universe is in constant turmoil, and the Space Garrison is simply not manpower enough.

If Max can't handle the situation there, Zoffy will have to go and provide support, or even Father of Ultra will have to step in.

"Mebius, keep improving your strength. One day, you will meet and form bonds with humans."

Mebius was clearly startled, and quickly nodded before heading to the training ground. Zoffy turned around and looked at Father of Ultra walking towards him.

"Zoffy, is there any news from Max's side?" Father of Ultra stepped forward. Zoffy really didn't know how to explain it. The current Ultra Sign can only transmit a limited amount of information across the universe. They had no idea what had happened. They still needed to develop it further.

"Since the news of the injury to Alien Empera spread, many aliens who were originally quite law-abiding have become restless again, and they have all set their sights on Earth in that newly discovered universe."

"There are reports that both the Pedanian and Zettonian people have sent their fleets in that direction, and the situation is not optimistic. There are also many aliens watching that area, so Max will be under a lot of pressure."

Although the Dark Universe and the Land of Light are enemies, it is undeniable that Emperor Empera of Darkness has greatly helped stabilize the order of the universe. The Dark Universe under her rule has restrained many evil aliens.

"If the situation really gets critical, I'll go help him." Father of Ultra was quite confident in his abilities.

“If it really comes to that, it’s more appropriate for me to go. The Land of Light can’t do without you.”

Zoffy is also quite strong. As the captain of the Space Garrison, many monsters are no match for him. His defeat to Tyrant was purely accidental, but Barton is another story.

"Besides, Max is quite strong. Even if he's all alone, he should be able to protect that Earth, right?" This time, Zoffy's tone wasn't very certain when he said this.

"Thirty million years ago, the war surrounding the ultimate darkness destroyed several powerful cosmic civilizations. Who knows what kind of upheaval this will unleash? Just now..."

Father of Ultra thought for a moment, seemingly unable to understand.

"Just now, the King of Ultra asked me, if in the future, the Alien Empera personally came to the Land of Light, admitted his mistakes about what happened back then, and decided to repent and work hard to maintain the order of the universe, what would I think? I want to ask your thoughts."

Forget about his thoughts, Zoffy was stunned just hearing these words. Was this about Alien Empera? Why would the King of Ultra ask such a question? However, after thinking about it, Zoffy still gave his opinion.

"If you want me to believe that the Alien Empera can really admit his mistakes and be determined to repent, then I would rather believe that Belial has reformed."

This is not a stereotype; it's simply a matter of Emperor Empera's reputation and past experiences. Expecting the Dark Emperor to come to the Land of Light to repent and admit his mistakes is like expecting Belial to reflect on his actions in prison and reform.

Father of Ultra nodded in agreement. He and Emperor were mortal enemies, and he also thought such a thing was unlikely.

"However, if the Aliens of Empera could really do that, the entire universe would probably become more peaceful."

Compared to hatred, peace throughout the universe is more important. The Land of Light has a very high moral standard. If Emperor can really do what the King of Ultra said, the Land of Light can put aside past grievances.

"It's bad, Captain Zoffy, Father of Ultra, something's happened in the Dark Universe!" Powered, who had just left, rushed over again. "I just received news that the Antill aliens broke the seal on the evil Bogaru, who then wreaked havoc in the Dark Universe and escaped."

"Based on the information we have, the evil Bogaru is very likely heading towards the universe where Max is located."

Zoffy and Father of Ultra exchanged a glance, recalling the report Max wrote after his last mission, and suddenly began to suspect that Max's luck was a little off.

"Ah."

Kaito, who was actually Ultraman Max, couldn't help but sneeze, wondering if the Land of Light was thinking about him. At the same time, he handed his personal information to the heavily wrapped-up man in front of him.

"These are my details. When will my identity be confirmed?"

"It can be done today." The man gave a thumbs up. "Don't worry, although we charge more, we are absolutely reliable, efficient, and we use official channels."

The fees are really expensive, but thankfully the Land of Light has provided special funds for the event. Of course, these funds are in Earth's currency, as the Land of Light hasn't had currency for a long time.

Watching the mysterious man in front of him take out a machine and operate it, Max obtained a brand new identity certificate. From now on, Max can act as his former human form, Toma Kaito.

"Pleasant to work with."

The two shook hands, watching Dongma Kaito leave quickly. The Special Investigation Division investigator smiled and turned to leave, only taking out his communicator after confirming his safety. "This is 832. The target has taken the bait. Should we take further action?"

"Don't act rashly if you're unsure of the other party's identity. Let's monitor them with a surveillance system for now."

That's right, the fake identity tip Max saw earlier was actually a sting operation by the Special Investigations Division, specifically designed to lure aliens attempting to infiltrate human society.

Unfortunately, Captain Goroki was seriously injured in today's impromptu battle, but since we have to report to Vice Captain Leo anyway, it shouldn't be a problem to just send the information over.

The person in charge of the mission was deep in thought, completely unaware that Leo had already received the news.

"So, he was exposed just like that?" Leo really didn't expect that Ultraman Max would not look for a human host, but would directly appear in his own identity and even get a fake identity from the Special Investigation Department.

"He first exchanged some gold for money, and then obtained a fake identity. In fact, not only were the identities obtained by members of the Special Investigation Division, but the pawnshop where he exchanged the money was also run by people from the Special Investigation Division."

Galatron, of course, had everything under the watchful eyes of the city's security cameras. In fact, the pawnshop existed to recycle some strange and unusual items, avoiding things like Mochi's mirror. Unexpectedly, she had also made an unexpected gain.

Leo shook his head, putting all that aside for now. Thanks to Renlong, Grandma Asami could stay a little longer at this point in time, and the family prepared a large table of food to eat in the yard.

"Please entrust Leo to me, I will do everything in my power to make him happy!"

At the dinner table, Miss Jetton bowed solemnly to Granny Asami to make her request, but this line caused everyone to frown, and even Gatanothor looked at her with a strange expression.

Tilis and Tyrant, Magabasa and Dimaga were just focused on eating; after all, this kind of thing had nothing to do with them anymore, at least for now, and probably always will be.

"Okay." Surprisingly, Grandma Asami's smile was very gentle, and she agreed readily. "From now on, I'm entrusting Leo to you."

The cake that Grandma bought was very big, but after it was divided among so many people in the family, each person only got one piece. It was just for the sake of creating a festive atmosphere.

Birthdays aren't usually a big deal; at home, it's just a casual meal and drinks. The only hiccup was that Leo had to feed Empera, which made Zetton and Rainbow Kagachi feel that fairness was important. So, Leo ended up becoming the monster feeder, feeding them one by one.

Even Miss Renlong was caught up in the atmosphere and chose to join in. Ako also went along with it and ate a few bites. However, after protests from Little Silvergun and Gatanothor, Leo was finally freed and became their exclusive feeder.

Grandma Asami watched from beginning to end, her smile growing more and more gratified. She knew that from now on, Renlong would never be alone again, Leo would always have someone to accompany him, and this house would never be lonely.

And she should return to her own time to prepare a birthday dinner for the child who is about to leave school.

The moment Grandma Asami disappeared, everyone fell silent. Leo, holding little Gatan, wiped the cream off her face. Looking at the empty seat, Leo smiled gently, bidding his final farewell.

"Thank you, Grandma."

Chapter 192 Leo's Four Heavenly Kings

The spacetime rift created by King Goldras led to the emergence of a large number of monsters. Although the time was not long and various defense forces and Earth monsters were fighting back, the damage caused was still considerable.

"The main problem is that urban reconstruction takes a lot of time," Leo said with a worried look on his face, having just returned from TPC. "What's more, this is a global reconstruction effort."

However, at this moment, there was no one in the command room except for Leo. All the members of ESCG except for Leo were lying in the stone coffin for treatment.

After all, yesterday's battle was very exhausting and injuries were inevitable, so they need a long period of rest.

The official explanation was that the excessive use of the fighter jet caused physical strain, and that's what Leo said, so the research department had no objections.

Since the TPC was established, the number of top-level and emergency meetings held in this month has exceeded the total number of meetings held in the past ten years combined. Meetings are held in the morning and afternoon, and in the afternoon and evening.

If this continues, Leo thinks that future students studying history will be driven crazy by these two weeks of studying history. Oh, and the students taking exams now are about the same.

With no one in the command room, Ampera could appear at will. She sat on Leo's lap without any hesitation, took the sandwich from his hand, and even offered her opinion.

"Let's ask Charlie if there's any technology that can recycle resources or rebuild the city."

Humanity's current technology is all focused on weapon-related aspects, such as energy, materials, and firepower, while its construction technology is lagging behind.

"That's what we said in today's meeting too. We don't know if Charlie Jia has this kind of technology."

Leo muttered to himself, resting his chin on Emperor's shoulder. The latter nuzzled his face against Leo's; the Emperor now seemed to enjoy making such small gestures.

Are you tired?

"A little bit."

Leo used his index finger and thumb to draw a barely noticeable gap. After all, the reconstruction work didn't require him to worry too much, and he wasn't going to get tired so easily.

"Your Earth here is really full of dangers. Why don't you find a safer, uninhabited planet to relocate to?"

"That's unlikely too." Leo waved his hand. Putting aside the importance of the concept of homeland on Earth, the key issue is that they can't find such a planet.

Searching the entire universe, there are really not many places as good as Earth. Most places with similar environments and climates are already inhabited. We can't just invade other places, not to mention there are many other factors to consider.

"There are too many spying on the ultimate darkness, but the Ultramen have recovered a lot of power now, so they can at least deal with many situations."

Leo thought about it and realized that apart from Nexus and Tiga, the other Ultramen had all regained their powers to some extent, and many of the monsters that were difficult to defeat before could now be fought without any problems.

King Goldras and King Silvergon's ultimate darkness were also recovered. According to Renlong, this was only a small part; the monsters under the great seal were the truly difficult ones to deal with.

Maga Orochi is expected to break free of its seal soon, and Leo needs to get the plan on the agenda as soon as possible. The Prometheus performed very well in yesterday's battle, and it can officially participate in the battle after the main control system is replaced.

In addition, Dr. Otomo's research has yielded some results, and he plans to communicate with Taganura today and try to command Taganura in battle in the future.

Dr. Tango's progress is also rapid. Masaki Keigo has been researching Ultraman for many years and has made great progress. At least, he has achieved results in the Nexus Layered Storm Beam.

"Zelda missiles, Prometheus battleships, monster command systems, and artificial Ultraman... Earth's strength should be considered top-tier in the entire universe."

Not to mention the universe here, even in the region of Emperor Empera, Earth's martial virtue is a bit too abundant, ranking among the top in the entire universe.

Empera figured that even if Leo and Daigo didn't make a move, the Dark Four Heavenly Kings wouldn't be able to escape once they arrived here; they would all perish here.

"I'm planning to negotiate with the Land of Light. What do you think?"

"I think it's difficult." Her Majesty the Emperor used her telekinesis to peel an orange and bring it to Leo's mouth. She wasn't unaware of Leo's plan.

"After the four Ultra Brothers sealed Saurus, they didn't have much energy left. They were observing the situation on Earth over there, and the Dark Universe was in turmoil. It was already quite difficult for the Land of Light to send Max here."

In His Majesty the Emperor's eyes, Max's strength was quite good, generally stronger than Unit-01 Impreza.

"Speaking of which, how's that Ultraman Max doing?"

"TPC announced an expansion of recruitment this morning, and he applied. If I hadn't told the Special Investigations Division to hold him back, he would have been arrested by now."

Leo's expression was quite strange. After all, how should he put it? "Could it be that joining the defense force has become a necessary procedure for the Land of Light to infiltrate Earth?"

"Didn't seven people already infiltrate your team?"
