As soon as Seven saw Leo and Astra, he immediately flew over. Right now, Leo looked to be in severe distress.
"Hah... hah…"
Leo was panting heavily. Every breath burned his chest and lungs with searing pain. His entire body screamed in agony, as though it might collapse at any moment.
This was the price of using the Kaio-ken x20.
No matter how strong Leo was, it was still incredibly difficult to withstand twenty times his own power.
"Leo, are you okay? What was that move just now? Your strength increased all of a sudden, but that must've put a huge strain on your body!" Astra asked with worry.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I just need to rest a bit... hah…"
Leo responded half-stubbornly.
"Astra's right. What you need now is rest," Seven said, arriving at their side.
"Seven, your timer light is flashing too!" Leo looked at the blinking crystal on Seven's forehead in surprise.
"My psychokinesis is drained, but it's nothing serious. The Blood Pool has stopped producing monsters. What we need to do now is clean up the remaining ones."
Seven assumed a combat stance, facing the last of the Blood Pool creatures.
"Alright. But afterward, you both owe me an explanation about what the hell is going on here," Astra said as he also got into a fighting stance.
"I'm in too. I may be hurting, but I can still handle some of these monsters," Leo said, unwilling to just sit on the sidelines and rest.
. . .
Dyna's Universe
Ultraman Dyna and Guren Knightmon were fighting back-to-back against numerous Blood Pool monsters.
In this world, only the two of them could hold back such a wave of monsters. But unlike Seven and Leo, they didn't have unlimited energy or any kind of buffed-up power. The battle was grueling.
"Gokuraku Jōdo!" (Pure Land of Bliss!)
Guren Knightmon fired a beam at a group of monsters that were trying to flee the island, blasting them all to pieces. But the very next second, a massive tail slammed into him, sending him flying.
Before he could recover, a thousand-meter-tall creature—resembling a bloated, grotesque Tyrannosaurus—stomped toward him, intending to crush him.
At that moment, Dyna flew straight into the beast's mouth and unleashed a Zepellion Ray, blasting through its throat and killing it instantly.
"Mm! Haa!"
Dyna then switched to Power Type and charged forward, using the massive corpse of the tyrannosaur as a battering ram to crush the smaller monsters in his path.
This method was extremely effective—smashing countless creatures into paste in an instant.
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!
But just as Dyna was flattening the enemy ranks, a barrage of missiles struck him, throwing him through the air in a storm of explosions.
The attacker was a new monstrosity: a thousand-meter-tall, round-bodied, lizard-headed, metallic creature covered in missile turrets. Its arms and legs were stubby, but it was an artillery platform of destruction.
It fired missile after missile, bombarding the island in an endless assault.
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
The intense explosion lit up the battlefield like a storm of fireworks, and nearly half the island was engulfed in flames.
Even Dyna was seriously wounded and sent flying. Many monsters were obliterated by the sheer blast.
"Stop it!"
From the cockpit of the GUTS Wing No. 2, Rena fired the Dexas Beam at the robot.
But against such a gigantic machine, the weapon had no effect.
Even though TPC had called in many GUTS Wings for support and even deployed the Artdesis with its Max Power Cannon, their weapons could barely handle monsters under two hundred meters tall.
Anything larger was simply untouchable.
"Damn it! Where did all these giant monsters come from? How are we supposed to fight them?!" Shinjo yelled, furious and overwhelmed.
"We just have to fight with everything we've got."
Captain Munakata, sweating profusely, was struggling to remain calm. For once, even he was at a loss for strategy. All they could do now was give it their all.
"AAAAHHHH!!"
With a fierce battle cry, Dyna forced himself to stand.
He looked at the mechanical monstrosity firing missiles toward the mainland. The island wasn't far from the coast, and now the missiles were striking cities across the mainland. Explosions had already killed countless innocent people.
To protect them, Dyna had to rise again.
"Don't underestimate me... Don't underestimate humanity!"
Daigo shouted with all his might. He crossed his arms above his forehead and then brought them down forcefully.
In the next moment, Dyna switched to Sky Type.
Then, turning into a beam of light, he cut through the hail of missiles and flew straight into the giant robot's main cannon.
BUZZ BUZZ BUZZ!!
A brilliant glow poured out of the machine's barrels.
BOOOOOM!!
The robot's interior exploded. Fire blasted from every gun port.
Its body cracked apart, and then—
A massive explosion erupted, reducing the giant robot to shrapnel. The shockwave took out nearby monsters in a single blast.
From the wreckage, Dyna's broken body was thrown out and crashed into the ocean.
"Master!"
Guren Knightmon saw Dyna fall and immediately charged in, destroying nearby monsters as he flew toward his fallen comrade.
"Dyna!"
The Victory Team members were all filled with worry.
"Master, are you okay?"
Guren Knightmon gently helped Dyna up.
"I'm... fine..." Daigo forced a response, trying to appear okay.
But the red blinking light on Dyna's chest timer betrayed his condition.
"Damn it... I still have to keep fighting. The Blood Pool is still releasing monsters. But how can I stop it? Should I use a planetary-level destructive force to intimidate them? But right now, I don't have anything like that..."
Daigo was growing more anxious. He felt helpless, incapable of protecting the Earth.
"Come on, Dyna."
"Dyna will win!"
"You can do it!"
He suddenly heard many children's voices—soft at first, then louder and more numerous, and in many different languages.
"What's this?"
Dyna looked around, confused.
What Daigo didn't realize was that their battle had already been broadcast around the world. Many fearless news helicopters were hovering overhead, livestreaming everything.
