The everlasting link of light

Seeing that Regila had stopped moving, Captain Hijikata frowned slightly and asked, "What happened? Why didn't the monster move?"

Ellie reported expressionlessly: "Captain, according to the scan results, Ultraman Nexus seems to have used an ability very similar to telekinesis to block Regilla's actions."

"Telekinesis? Lockdown operation?"

"drink!"

Just as Captain Hijikata was savoring the moment, Nexus suddenly growled, then put his arms together and released a cross storm!

"Shh!"

"Roar!"

"boom!"

Hit by the cross storm, Regila's body was instantly disintegrated into smoke, leaving nothing behind.

"Oh my god! So... so cool!"

Seeing that Nexus had defeated Regila in just two or three moves, Sheen's already large eyes widened again, and he quickly pushed Ellie in front of him and asked:

"Ellie, did you record all the battle scenes just now?"

Ellie remained expressionless and said, "Don't worry, the recording device has been turned on from the beginning to now, so the battle scene has been completely recorded."

"Nice! Great job Allie!"

the other side

After dealing with Regila, Nexus turned his head slightly to look at Unit 1 piloted by Kaito, and then his body turned into countless particles of light and dissipated in the air.

Looking at the bright sky in front of him, Kaito felt extremely heavy at the moment.

Kaito picked up the Max Spark in his hand, his eyes filled with complicated emotions.

"Why...why is this happening? Max...why on earth is this happening? Max!"

Some time later, in the Dash base operations meeting room

Captain Hijikata said in a rare serious tone: "Captain Kaito, I would like to hear your explanation for your reckless behavior today."

"I'm sorry, Captain. I..."

Kaito lowered his head with a complicated expression, not knowing how to explain his behavior today. He couldn't just say that he was Ultraman Max~

"Kaito, are you thinking of putting yourself in danger to make Ultraman Max show up and help us destroy the monsters? This way you can prove that Ultraman Max is a friend of mankind."

Seeing Kaito hesitating and unable to speak, Ruixi immediately put forward her own guess.

"This one……"

"It seems I was right."

Seeing Kaito's reaction, Mizuki seemed to confirm her judgment, and then said to Captain Hijikata: "Captain, from today on, I don't want to be in the same combat sequence with Kaito anymore."

After saying that, Ruixi sat down in the corner with his back turned without looking back.

"Rich..."

Seeing Ruixi leaving, Kaito subconsciously stretched out his hand to stop her, but his hand eventually dropped weakly.

"Kaito, can I ask you a question?"

"what is the problem?"

Captain Hijikata stood up and said meaningfully, "Why are we fighting those vicious monsters?"

Kaito said without hesitation: "Of course, it is for the peace of mankind and the earth."

"Yes, that's what we fight for."

Captain Hijikata nodded in satisfaction at Kaito's answer, and then asked a question that struck Kaito's soul.

"But Kaito, do we need to prove all this? Whether it's what we Dash or what Max and Nexus have done, does it all need to be proven to be valuable? Is it for these things that we have been fighting until now?"

"I……"

Kaito clenched his fists when he heard Captain Hijikata's question.

"I hope you can think about this issue carefully. Take some time to relax."

As soon as he finished speaking, Captain Hijikata walked up and took off the Dash logo on Kaito's chest.

"team leader!"

"I will keep the Dash logo for you first. When you figure out the answer, I will return it to you."

Seeing Captain Hijikata's rare serious expression, Kaito didn't want to say anything more. After bowing to everyone present, he left the combat meeting room disappointed.

The moment Kaito left, Mizuki jumped up from her position with a catapult start, and then rushed to Captain Hijikata and said anxiously:

"Captain, are we going too far? After all, Kaito has only joined for a few days."

Seeing Ruixi so worried, Captain Hijikata smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, Kaito will definitely find the answer through his own efforts. All we have to do now is to believe in him."

"I hope so..."

Thinking back to Kaito's dejected expression just now, Ruixi felt really bad.

However, it was not just her, Mu Ting and Xien also felt a little uncomfortable.

"Alas~ He was a good person, why did he become like this~"

"Poor warrior boy, he seems to be quite depressed."

Listening to the two people's chattering, even Ellie, a robot, couldn't stand it anymore!

"Team Mu Ting, Team Sheen, please keep quiet and don't disturb my work."

"S-Code Contest~"

"Em Souri~"

After whispering an apology, the two of them covered their mouths and stepped back tacitly.

"But as for Kaito, I think his situation is not optimistic."

Just as the two of them retreated, Ellie suddenly turned around and said this.

Mu Ting asked curiously: "Why do you say that?"

Ellie said seriously: "This is the conclusion I came to after analyzing the mental damage and psychological shadow area suffered by Kaito team members."
