Chapter 29: A Heaven‑Shaking Reversal

Inside the confinement room, the cold metal walls reflected the harsh light.

Staff Officer He Zhi turned coldly and issued the final order to the technicians behind him.

"Activate the molecular quantization system immediately; the target is... Ultraman Segu."

"We must completely erase his existence from this universe."

"Yes!"

In the deep underground of the secret research institute, a huge and precise instrument began to operate, emitting a low hum.

To conceal the truth of their aggression, humans actually planned to kill Segu!

At that moment,

The entire base, and even the whole earth, erupted in a violent tremor!

The alarm blared to the heavens!

On the sea surface, an enormous shadow burst out of the water, stirring up towering waves!

It was a terrifying beast whose form resembled an ancient trilobite, yet a hundred times more ferocious!

The divine beast of the Noma'ert people, Zabangi!

Its roar shattered all the glass in the coastal cities.

A Noma'ert envoy stood silently beside Zabangi.

Her voice, through some unknown technology, clearly reached every corner.

"Humans, we have given you a chance."

"Since you cannot face the buried sins, let us settle this ten‑thousand‑year blood feud once and for all!"

Zabangi strode forward, its massive body easily crushing everything; human buildings before it were as fragile as sandcastles.

Doomsday has arrived.

At that very moment, a loud "bang!" echoed.

The heavy metal door of the confinement room was blown open from outside by force!

The captain of the Ultraman Guard, Kobashi, rushed in with all his men and quickly freed Shizukuri from his bonds.

"Shizukuri!"

Kobashi looked at his comrade, face full of fatigue and pain, his own expression filled with guilt and struggle.

"The truth of the Omega File... we now know it all."

The teammates behind him also lowered their heads, not daring to look at Shizukuri.

The comrade who once fought side by side with them, the hero they had trusted countless times, was being regarded as a threat by the very leaders they protected and prepared for secret execution.

How absurd, and yet how sorrowful.

"This is our mistake as humans." Kobashi's voice heavy beyond measure, "We no longer have the right to ask you to fight for us."

"Whatever you do next, we will hold no grudge."

"Come on, Shizukuri. Leave this filthy planet."

Cybertron Star.

Megatron saw this, excitedly rose from his throne, and swung his massive metal arm.

"What to do? What else can we do!"

Cruel light flickered in his electronic eyes as he laughed loudly.

"Naturally, we must slaughter these treacherous, invading, vile humans! Ultraman, don't disappoint me!"

Super Beast World, third parallel universe.

The Whale Shark King curled the corner of his mouth into a cruel arc.

"Ultraman Segu, it's not too late to make amends."

"From the start, you protected the wrong target. These vile, greedy humans are not worth your protection!"

"Next, slaughter them all. These greedy creatures deserve only to be slaves!"

Three-Body Fleet.

The Leader's thought-form hovered silently, cold thought waves rippling in the command center.

"I never expected humans to truly be aggressors, even dreaming of killing Ultraman Segu... truly an irredeemable species."

"This time, Ultraman Segu should be utterly disappointed in humanity."

The members of the Ultraman Guard made a path to freedom for Shizukuri.

Shizukuri tightly gripped the Ultraman glasses in his hand, and silently walked out of the base alone.

The dim yellow sunset stretched his shadow long.

Humans are aggressors.

Humans want to kill him.

Everything he protected has become a joke.

At that moment, the Noma'ert envoy silently appeared before him.

"Ultraman Segu, have you seen humanity's ugliness?"

Her voice carried a hint of mockery and a hint of anticipation.

"They now want to silence you, just as they did to us Noma'ert people ten thousand years ago—bloody and cruel."

"Now you know what you have been protecting all along, right?"

She extended her hand, extending an invitation to Shizukuri.

"Come! Join us! Together, let's exterminate these insatiable, irredeemable humans!"

"For this planet, reclaim true justice!"

The Nomaerter Envoy's words were like a heavy hammer, heavily striking the heart of the All-Star Group.

He slowly turned his head, glanced at the distant city being wantonly destroyed by Zhabaji, and heard the countless cries of despair from humanity.

His expression had never before been so filled with anguish and torment.

At that very moment, golden subtitles slowly appeared above the sky curtain.

【According to the Universal Law and the regulations of the Land of Light, no Ultra Warrior may ever aid an invading civilization against the indigenous people.】

【If violated, that Ultra Warrior will be exiled to the endless void of the Universe Prison, enduring loneliness and torment!】

This rule made all the civilizations watching the spectacle hold their breath.

The moment of decision has arrived.

One side is to stand with the just indigenous people, cleanse the planet's original sin, and follow the heavenly principle.

The other side is to protect the treacherous, faithless invaders, betraying one's own race and faith, and fall into an abyss from which there is no return.

All civilizations believed the answer was beyond doubt.

In the afterglow of the sunset, under the expectant gaze of the Nomaerter Envoy, the All-Star Group finally made up its mind.

He slowly raised the Ultra Glasses in his hand.

"Saiwen!"

Accompanied by a shout, he put on the glasses!

Red light shot up to the sky, a colossal forty-meter-tall body descended onto the earth!

Saiwen Ultraman has appeared!

He stood before the giant beast Zhabaji.

However, an scene that no civilization could have anticipated occurred.

Saiwen did not stand side by side with Zhabaji.

Quite the opposite, he slowly raised his hand and took off the sharp ice axe atop his head.

A green light blade traced a resolute arc in the air, fiercely slashing toward the body of the giant beast Zhabaji.

"Clang!"

He, actually intends to stop Zhabaji!

He wishes to protect humanity once again!

The Three-Body Fleet Command Center was deathly silent.

The thought fluctuations of Analyst No. 3056 erupted into violent chaos, on the verge of collapse.

"This… this is impossible! How could this happen! Completely incomprehensible!"

"Why… why would he do this?! Is he crazy?!"

"Humans are invaders, after all, and they even want to kill Ultraman Saiwen!"

"Why does he continue to protect?!"

The Leader's thought form also produced unprecedented violent fluctuations,

He gazed at the red giant of unwavering resolve in the sky curtain, and the icy chain of logic snapped completely at that moment.

"Why?"

"Ultraman Saiwen, why do you protect the invaders? Why do you protect… a bunch of insects that just tried to kill you?"

"If you do that, you will be exiled to the depths of the void!"

"Is it worth it?"
