One particle. Two particles. Three particles…
Although Camearra's light could be reassembled, locating it was a colossal undertaking.
Released from Tiga's Glittering form, countless particles of light swept across the world, drawing back fragments of Camearra's scattered radiance.
From towering mountains.
From the depths of the ocean.
From vast grasslands.
From forgotten, inconspicuous corners of the world…
As time passed, a small cluster of light gradually formed before Yu Zhou.
This was Camearra's light—what he had managed to recover so far.
It was still only a tiny amount, but Yu Zhou was confident.
Before long, these lights would fully reunite—and he would see Camearra again.
"What's that?"
"Is Tiga gathering light?"
Those who witnessed the scene were filled with confusion, yet all they could do was quietly watch.
Inside the Global United Assembly Hall, representatives from every nation noticed the anomaly as well. Each of them was completely baffled, utterly unable to guess what Tiga was attempting to do.
Just as someone was about to question the Tsuburaya scriptwriters present—
The alarm blared.
"Who triggered the emergency alarm?!"
The representative from B nation jolted in fright and shouted angrily.
"Report!"
A communications officer burst into the hall without regard for protocol, shouting at the top of his lungs.
"What happened?"
The Huaxia representative frowned and asked sharply.
"According to… according to the remaining satellite data!"
The officer was panting heavily, clearly having run at full speed.
"A massive darkness is rapidly approaching Earth from outside the planet!!!"
"What?!"
The entire hall erupted in shock.
Wasn't the apocalypse already over?
Why was another darkness appearing now?!
Yet—
After the initial panic, the representatives instinctively turned their eyes toward the screen showing Tiga.
With Ultraman Tiga present, surely nothing catastrophic would happen… right?
…
Yu Zhou was in the midst of locating Camearra's light particles through those scattered across the globe when he suddenly sensed a vast darkness rapidly approaching Earth from beyond.
"That is…?"
He frowned in confusion. Before he had left, all the truly dangerous bosses should have been eliminated. So why was something like this appearing now?
Suddenly, the red-dressed little girl appeared before him, her expression urgent.
"This is bad!" she said quickly.
"Dark Zagi is approaching Earth at high speed!"
"If he breaks through the protective barrier I set up, Camearra's light particles will scatter into the universe!"
"Dark Zagi?!"
The name hit Yu Zhou like a lightning bolt.
Back then, numerous terrifying bosses had appeared beyond Earth, and one by one they had been dealt with. But Dark Zagi… after making an appearance, he had vanished without a trace.
"So that bastard was hiding all this time!"
Yu Zhou was not afraid of Camearra's light scattering beyond Earth. With his current strength, even if her particles dispersed across the cosmos, he could still retrieve them.
But the time required would increase drastically.
"We can't let him enter Earth," Yu Zhou decided instantly.
Turning to the little girl, he said firmly, "Leave this to me."
"Mm."
She nodded, then vanished into the air.
"There's darkness approaching Earth from outside—stop it before it reaches the planet!"
With the search for light ongoing and impossible to interrupt, Yu Zhou shouted toward the ground.
Daigo and the others immediately understood his signal.
"Let's move!"
They nodded to one another. The mission to restore Camearra could not afford even the slightest mistake.
In the light-filled world, one transformation device after another was raised.
In the next instant, multi-coloured brilliance erupted. One massive figure after another, wrapped in radiant light, shot into the sky—rushing toward space.
The onlookers below were completely stunned by the dazzling spectacle.
"What's going on?!"
"What was that just now?!"
"What do you mean multi-coloured—clearly it was seven-coloured light!"
"Forget the colours—what was that?!"
"Wait… didn't I see six giants wrapped in light?!"
"Ultraman?!"
"…"
As the light gradually faded, everyone looked up at the sky, their faces frozen in shock.
"It really is Ultraman."
"Six Ultramen!!!"
"With Tiga, that makes seven!"
"No—one of those six is Tiga!"
"…"
Not only the civilians—inside the Global United Assembly Hall, silence fell upon everyone.
At last, someone could no longer hold it in.
"Ultraman… they're all Ultramen!"
"Six more appeared all at once!"
"Earth's safety is finally guaranteed!"
"…"
Hearts pounding, hands trembling, the representatives stared at the screen showing the Ultramen flying in formation toward space, many of them moved to tears.
"But…"
The B nation representative suddenly spoke again.
"With so many Ultramen appearing, won't humanity's position become dangerous once more?"
The atmosphere in the hall instantly dropped to freezing point.
"I'll danger your damn head!"
The Huaxia representative exploded in rage.
"If you've got the guts, go fight the monsters yourself! If you can handle them all, I won't say another word!"
"Agreed!"
"I support the Huaxia representative!"
"Exactly—solve the monster problem first, then talk!"
"…"
One representative after another voiced their support.
Without Ultramen, they would all be dead by now.
Without Ultramen, Earth itself would not even exist—what nations would there be left to argue about?
Under the collective pressure, the B nation representative lowered his head in humiliation, wishing he could crawl into a crack in the floor.
…
Daigo. Masaki. Hudra. Darramb. Achilles. Herau.
These six Ultramen pierced the clouds under the gaze of all humanity, broke through the atmosphere, and entered space.
Suspended in the void, they stared silently at the approaching darkness rushing toward Earth.
Each of them began to gather their finishing beams.
When the darkness closed to a critical distance—
Six beams fired simultaneously.
A thunderous explosion echoed through space. As the seven-coloured light collided with the darkness, its true form was finally revealed.
It resembled an Ultraman—but with a jet-black body, blood-red eyes, and a crimson Colour Timer, exuding an aura of violent slaughter.
Dark Zagi.
Daigo and the others had never encountered this boss before and initially treated him as just another Dark Giant.
Yet when this "ordinary" Dark Giant withstood a combined attack from all six of them—
They immediately realized one thing.
This enemy was anything but ordinary.
