Rizanto Episode 2 What is Ultraman?!

Disclaimer: There is none, you knew what you were in for when you saw who was writing this.

## Normality

Previously, only an episode before, a hero had arrived. His name was Ultraman Rizanto. He fought against the deadly space beast Reptogon, and he was now in the long line of heroes that had filled the halls of fame and notoriety on the Land of Light. However, it seemed that no one could quite catch the hero's name, given the brevity of the battle that had taken place.

It was another day in the base. Captain Soreo was sitting in one of the chairs around the round table. He was humming to himself while Kiriko was stationed in front of the terminal, leaning back in her chair and yawning. Mendou sat at the table as well and was digging into some takeout he had ordered a few minutes prior. Boutaro was typing at a laptop he seemingly brought with him.

Yes, the inattentive and lackadaisical nature of these professionals is quite the sight to behold, no? Even if this is a parody, know that all of those sworn to protect you and the peace and justice you hold so dear, could be doing nothing or partying right now as we speak.

Soapboxing aside, their spending of leisure time was interrupted by a transmission appearing on monitor. It was Mr. Kabuki, and he seemed like he needed to talk. Everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and sprung up at attention, hiding some of their belongings they were using to goof off with. Although, Mendou still had some noodles on his upper lip, giving him a sort of mustache.

"Sir!", they shouted. They saluted him. Soreo stopped saluting him and walked forward a bit.

"Well uh, sir", continued the Captain. "We would like to-"

"Hold on....Before you say anything, I would like to say this: Your performance last week was impeccable. It has shown me that LEGACY Japan still has some use after all. The board is also pleased to hear about the work you all did out there...."

The Captain blushed, covering his mouth with his fist.

"Th-Thank you sir. It is quite the honor."

"You should be honored, especially the way you handled it better than the military. General Casey is nowhere to be found, nor is his subordinate. The way you took action in that situation was quite admirable, and I think that means that there's good reason to keep funding this branch."

Soreo raised his finger.

"Can you give us one moment?"

Kabuki nodded.

"Sure."

Soreo jumped in the air and shouted.

"YES!!!!! YES!!!!!! YES!!!!!! Who's the man?!"

Boutaro pointed at his Captain with both fingers.

"You are!!!!"

Mendou flexed his muscles as he shouted.

"THAT'S WHY HE'S THE GOAT!!!!! THE GOAAAAAATTTTT!!!!!"

Some of the sauce from the noodles resting on his upper lip flew in Kiriko's face due to all the yelling.

"H-Hey!", she exclaimed. "If you're gonna do that....."

She took out her phone and shoved it in his face.

"THEN ORDER SOME FOR THE REST OF US!!!!! WE'RE GETTING VICTORY NOODLES!!!!!!"

"WOOOOOOHHHHHHHH", everyone save for the Captain shouted.

"AND IT'S SWEEETTTTTT, SWEET VICTORY YEAHHHHHH", sung Boutaro and Mendou.

" AND IT'S OURS FOR THE TAKING, IT'S OURS FOR THE FIGHT!!!!!", continued Kiriko.

Soreo raised his hands and the others calmed down. He turned back to Mr. Kabuki on the monitor.

"Alright, that's all the time I needed."

Kabuki nodded.

"Very well then. Yes, you have secured funding."

"WOOOHHHHHH, YEAHHHHHH BABY", screamed Mendou. "THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING-"

Kiriko quickly turned to him.

"Sssshhhh!"

"Sorry...."

"However", Mr. Kabuki carried on. "You aren't getting it yet...."

Everyone had a surprised look on their face.

"What.....?!", they all said.

"E-Excuse me....what, can you say that again?"

Kabuki twiddled his thumbs as he rested his elbows on his desk.

"Your performance was quite good; however, you didn't do it alone. A giant, a giant of light arrived to help you."

Soreo cocked his head.

"Giant...."

"The board wants you to look more into what this giant is. We....expect a report of some kind to describe what it is. Then, we will provide the funding. We can't make heads or tails if it's an enemy or not, and until we repair our archives because someone decided to 'retcon' the data. Anyways, we need you to come up with as much information as you can about the giant for when we recover the files and cross reference information."

"And if we do that, we'll get our funding?"

"Correct."

"I see...."

Kabuki sighed.

"Well, that'll be all. I take it you'll be able to find some information by the time the files are recovered."

"And when will that be?"

"By the end of today."

Soreo started sweating as his eyes widened.

"B-By....."

"By the end of today, yes."

"B-B-B-But...."

"Anyways, I have to get going. The newest episode of Ramen Kider Steag has released. I hope you will do well in this task as well, Soreo."

Unlike last time, Kabuki actually hung up, leaving all the LEGACY team members disheartened while Soreo dropped to his knees.

"B-B-But.....WHAT OF THE FUNDING??!?!?!??!?!!!", he shouted to the heavens.

## Ultra-Navi?

The LEGACY base was filled with sorrow. All the members sat at the table, heads lowered, spirit shattered. All of their hard work was now going to be invalidated. The Captain, Soreo, looked down solemnly. It seemed that they would have to go through more trials and tribulations to attain the all mighty check. As the team was moping around in silence, Dr. Ichigo walked out of what seemed to be his laboratory, or, at least the door that lead his laboratory to see his coworkers and superior down in the dumps. He, one again, had his signature cup of coffee in his hand.

He sipped from his cup before surveying the room.

"What's up with you all?"

Boutaro slumped down, resting his head on the table.

"We can't secure our funding....", he said.

"Not until we get some information on that giant or whatever that showed up yesterday", continued Kiriko. She slammed her fist on the table. "Geez! Why do we have to do more work?! We've done more than enough to prove that we could handle ourselves!"

Ichigo shrugged.

"Doesn't seem that hard to me....", he said casually.

"Easy for you to say", said Mendou. "None of us could even get a good look of the guy."

"You.....do realize you could just identify it as an Ultraman, right?"

"An- An Ultra-what now?", asked Boutaro.

"An Ultraman. You know.....those giant alien men that fight monsters."

Soreo scratched his chin.

"Ultraman.....Ultraman......Ultraman.....yes.....yes I think I have heard of one of these."

"Obviously sir, you were active in the military when GUYS was still a thing."

Just then, collectively, it seemed like everyone's singular defective and in all likelihood, damaged braincell had a zap of lightning run through it. They all perked up, and realized something.

"Ultraman!!!!", they all shouted.

Ichigo sipped from his cup again and sighed. He walked over to the table and left his mug there while he pointed at the monitor. Almost like it was an act of magic, the monitor showed footage of the new Ultra's battle with Reptogon.

"Do you get it now? This is clearly just another Ultraman sighting. The first Ultraman to show up here in years....."

Kiriko yawned.

"Alright....since we know what it is now, we don't need to compile much data if they're gonna get those files back...."

She leaned back in her chair.

"I'll sit this one out...."

Boutaro looked at her.

"But, the director made it sound like we had to come up with new information.....So wouldn't it be better to try and get as much new stuff as possible?"

Mendou clenched his fists and pumped them in the air.

"Alright! That sounds like an excellent challenge...."

Soreo paused for a moment.

"It would be.....quite beneficial to us if we thought up new information. But, how would we get this information is the question?"

Ichigo simply waved his hand and reached into his pocket, pulling out a small device. It was just a switch with a button on it. He pressed the button, and soon the device started to morph in a black box that unfolded into a laptop. He then reached into his lab coat and took out a cord, plugging it into the laptop and terminal, connecting the two.

"Woah.....", said Boutaro, astonished. "What's this....?"

He slowly reached out his hand to touch the device, but Ichigo quickly smacked it away.

"No touch!"

"Ow! Okay, okay...."

"But....to answer your question, Boutaro, this device is called the Radio-Wave Electronic Abstract Dimension-Scanner. Called READ for short...."

Mendou raised his hand.

"Yes, Mendou?"

"Wouldn't it make more sense to call it READS?"

"Yeah, I suppose it would, but that would ruin the bit...."

"What bit?"

"Don't ask so many questions, just follow along!"

"Okay...."

Ichigo continued as he paced back and forth in front of the team, who were listening patiently. On the screen it showed various still images of Ultraman Tiga, Dyna, Gaia, Agul, Cosmos, Nexus, and the New Generation Heroes.

"This device can allow us to look at other worlds, as well as look at the past. We cannot interact with them unfortunately, but what we \*can\* do is observe the worlds in question for information. I was planning on using this to win online arguments, but this could be the perfect situation to test technology of this kind."

Everyone in the room started to clap, as the lights turned back on. Because for some reason they dimmed while he was presenting.

"Excellent!", exclaimed Soreo. "I suppose now we just, collect the data?"

"Yes, I have already had it to where this presentation and everything is recorded for the board to hear......so wake up Kiriko!"

Kiriko, who was already asleep after the brief presentation woke up in a daze.

"H-Huh, huh? Oh! Yeah I'm....I'm good...."

"Anyways, I suppose to start off we should be going from the basics."

He snapped his fingers, and the monitor showed the titan of light himself: the original Ultraman. The original Ultraman was fighting in a large city, wrestling around with what appeared to be an Alien Baltan. The Baltan swung at the hero with its claw, but Ultraman caught the attack and quickly countered with a strong punch to the thorax. The extraterrestrial fell back as Ultraman continued by running towards it and locked his foe's neck with his legs, forcing it to the ground. The Baltan laughed and quickly teleported out of the giant's hold.

Ultraman looked around to see his foe appear again, and quickly put his arms in the + sign, firing a blue beam that blew Alien Baltan to smithereens.

"As you can see", said Ichigo. "Ultraman, is a giant of light, who fights to protect planets from ruin. At 40 meters tall and 35,0000 tons, he really is humanity's savior. He showed up in 1966, and ever since then, his kind has been-"

Boutaro raised his hands, causing Ichigo to sigh.

"What is it, Boutaro?"

"What's happening?"

Ichigo looked to see the charred remains of the Baltan turn into other smaller Baltan now being scooped up and put into various bowls. Ultraman was now seemingly facing the audience and giving them a thumbs up as another person spoke.

"ULTRA-CRAB SALES! WE HAVE BALTAN FLAVOR, ZETTON FLAVOR, GOMORA FLAVOR SAUCES!!!!! GET YOUR ULTRAMAN ULTIMATE SAUCES AND CRAB HERE NOW!!!! IT'S ULTRA-AMAZINGGGGGG!!!!!!"

Ichigo cleared his throat as he snapped his fingers again.

"Pardon me....It seems that world was......different."

Soreo pondered.

"So to my understanding there are various other Ultras, right? Try to show us an Ultraman we haven't seen before....."

Ichigo nodded.

"Of course, let's see what other worlds we can come across."

## Cameo Time

Takeno inserted the card into the toy. It said "Takeno: Access Granted"

"Three Emotional Souls, protecting their loved ones!"

He started to insert the medals into the toy one by one.

"Ultraman Leo! Ultraman Dyna! Ultraman Orb!"

"Leo. Dyna. Orb."

He brought the toy to his chest and clicked the toriga. Takeno then started to transform into an Ultra, he was now Vigor. But, his basic Ultra form was now enshrined in another light, giving him the attributes of the Ultras in question. As he rose in a bright light, his entrance was quickly rejected. Before he could even grow full size, Sinister quickly kicked him to the side. He pointed at the Ultra.

"Let this be a lesson to you, Ultraman. You cannot beat what you aren't stronger than......"

"WHICH IS WHY I'M HERE!!!!!!"

Sinister and Vigor turned to see Ultraman L\*\*\*\*\*.

"Sorry, but the only thing Sinister here is-"

It was at that moment that Sinister fired a powerful beam of energy, obliterating the newcomer. In the LEGACY base, Ichigo sighed and snapped his fingers again, causing the monitor to shut off. The lights turned back on and he walked back to the table to get his drink. He started to pace around the room yet again, sipping from his cup.....only to realize it had gotten cold. In response quickly spat his drink out. Recomposing himself, he turned to his teammates and superior. Boutaro and Soreo were invested, Kiriko was asleep, and Mendou was drawing a moustache on her face.

"So, that was my presentation on Ultraman. This should be sufficient enough for the director....."

Soreo pumped his fist in the air.

"Thanks to you, we've now surely secured more funding. Not to mention, it was really fun to learn about all those Ultras....."

"Yeah", agreed Boutaro. "My favorite one was Ultraman R\*\*\*\*s, his Cluster Ray was really cool."

Mendou stopped drawing on Kiriko's face to comment.

"I personally like Ultraman B\*\*\*\*\*n, his dedication to working out is so awe inspiring....."

"Actually, why don't we watch one more, maybe that'll even get us more funding", thought Boutaro. "Yeah.....yeah, actually, we could just show them more and more Ultra-footage!!!!! They'll be swimming in it. That way, we'll be able to protect people for sure-"

"And maybe we could use it for other stuff to, for uh side hustles", added Mendou.

"Fssssshhhh Detective Daedalus......come back......I lovvveeee youuuuuu", said Kiriko in her sleep.

Ichigo thought for a bit.

"I don't see why not. We've already seen Ultraman's battle with Baltan, N\*o M\*\*\*\*s' battle with Gogitomons, R\*\*\*\*s' battle with Saigrond, Devon's battle with depression, and L\*g's clash against Steerwheelmons, I think I know a world that I can show....."

The monitor flashed back on, the lights in the room turned off, and the screen started to show another battle. It was now another Ultraman. The Ultra, yellow and black, was dashing around a raptor-esque kaiju. The beast was mostly blue and had large hooks on its hands and feet. It also possessed a beak and four eyes as well. The Ultra dashed into the air as did the kaiju. They flew around each other for a bit before the Ultra quickly delivered a kick to the monster's neck, causing it to fall to the ground with a thud.

The Ultra touched back down on the ground more gracefully and got into his fighting stance. As the monster recovered, the Ultra in question put his hands in the familiar L position, though this time his right elbow rested on his palm. Soon, a powerful stream of electricity shot from his arm and directly hit the monster, causing it to yelp in pain seemingly as it did so. The beam sparked a bit, causing some of the flashing lights to wake up Kiriko abruptly.

"H-Huh? Wha- What happening again?"

"Ssh", said Boutaro. "I'm trying to see Ultraman Lightning in action."

Kiriko smacked her lips as she rubbed her eyes.

"Eh, we all know that L\*\*\*\*l is the best....."

"You only say that because you have a thing for his host....."

"So? Your point is?"

Boutaro looked at her face, before snickering.

"What?"

"Pff, nothing", replied Boutaro coyly.

"What? What's so funny?"

"N-Nothing....."

Mendou, who was watching what was happening, also started to snicker.

On the screen Stellade continued to spark and erupt with electricity, but something was wrong. Lightning started to slowly step back as the electricity inside Stellade's body started to shoot out and get more erratic. It was almost like the beast was a bug zapper with how the electrical current was functioning. Soon, the terminal at the LEGACY base started to have sparks and lightning shoot out too, causing everyone to be alarmed. Ichigo jumped back before running to the laptop to see what was going on.

"What's happening", said Soreo.

Ichigo started to frantically type away at the keyboard.

"I-It must be the nature of the device! It works like a camera to another world......Meaning that the 'camera' here is being filled with all that voltage Lightning pumped into that monster!!"

Mendou ran towards the terminal.

"I'll handle this!!!!!! This is how you deal with technology!!!!!!"

He jumped in the air and delivered a powerful strike to the terminal. Sparks shot off of the device and Mendou himself was quickly electrocuted, being sent flying across the room. When he landed on the floor, the lights turned on. Everyone turned to see Mendou's body on the floor. Boutaro and Kiriko quickly rushed to his side to check on him.

Boutaro knelt down beside him while Kiriko stood over him.

"Mendou", shouted Boutaro.

"Are you alright", asked Kiriko.

While not responsive at first, Mendou started to crack a smile when looking at Kiriko's face.

"W-What's so funny?"

Boutaro started to laugh.

"Gggrrrgggghhh...."

She kicked Mendou in the side, causing him to cough and hit Boutaro on the shoulder.

On the monitor, Stellade looked in the direction of the 'camera' and let out a powerful as its eyes glowed. It was at that moment, that the monitor abruptly shut off. Everyone in the room waited in silence, wondering what would happen next. Ichigo was the only exception, frantically typing away at his computer until it short circuited.

Ichigo hit the computer.

"Darn!"

Soreo slowly looked towards Ichigo.

"Wait.....if the terminal is down....does that mean we lost-"

Ichigo quickly turned around.

"No! We haven't lost the data. If we can get the device back up, we could probably recover our data if I left autosave on. But, the main concern here is....."

"Is what?"

"Is that thing crossing over."

"Oh no...."

All of a sudden, alarms started to sound off in the base as the monitor abruptly switched on as fast as it had shut off. It showed Stellade rampaging in the city once again. It swiped at a building, demolishing its roof completely. It kicked through smaller buildings with the talons on its feet. The monster let out another roar as civilians ran in terror. The beast touched its two claws together. A large red beam soon shot from them, and hit multiple buildings, blowing a large hole through most of them.

It 'clapped' its hands with glee before continuing its rampage. It turned to another set of buildings and shot multiple electric eye beams in rapid succession, causing some nearby pylons and power lines, as well as some electronics and systems in the house to short circuit. A large electrical storm started to form as lightning spewed everywhere, nearly hitting some people, and causing even more damage. Stellade started to continue its rampage, flinging cars and vehicles in the air, before blowing them up with its eye beams. It was almost like it was some sort of game for the beast. The kaiju started running and spreading its arms once it entered the business district. Its arms and hooked hands tore through the buildings as it ran through the area. People ducked for cover or jumped out the way, only to be met with flying rubble left in the wake of the monster's rampage.

From the LEGACY base, everyone looked on in shock. Soreo turned around to his subordinates. He had already come up with a plan to deal with this.

"Mendou! Kiriko! Fly the LEGACY Midgers! Boutaro, you'll be with me in the STAR-Rusher...."

"Roger", shouted Boutaro and Kiriko. Mendou could only groan, he had been electrocuted only a few minutes prior after all.

He turned to Ichigo.

"Is there anyway you can send it back to where it came from?"

"I-I might be able to. If I can turn this thing on that is....."

"Very well then! Stay back here and take care of things."

Ichigo saluted Soreo before getting back to the task at hand. Boutaro and him quickly walked out after, with Kiriko having to drag Mendou by the shirt when she left too.

## Wandaba + Fight Fight Fight + Fan Service

Stellade was going to resume destroying the city, when all of a sudden, the LEGACY Midgers came flying in, already blasting at the monster with their arsenal. The bulkier ship was piloted by Mendou, while the slender one was piloted by Kiriko. Sparks shot off of Stellade's hide as they flew by the creature, causing it to indignantly shriek at them. It quickly took off in the air and started to pursue its attackers. Mendou looked over his shoulder and saw the monster hot on his tail.

"Alright, it looks like we're gonna have to give that thing the sl-"

A surge of electricity briefly went through his body, causing his hair to spike up.

"Give that thing the slip....."

"Maybe it wasn't the best idea for you to be flying", suggested Kiriko. "You practically have injured written all of your face....."

Mendou started to laugh. Kiriko rolled her eyes.

"Seriously! What is up with you and Boutaro today?"

"N-Nothing....It's just that you said.....'face'....."

She shook her head.

"I swear when this is over."

The two ships immediately pulled back, allowing Stellade to zoom past them, given the speed it was already traveling. The two ships started to resume fire, the blue energy blasts making contact with the beast once again. The monster, quite angered, quickly spun around and touched its claws together yet again. However, Stellade now shot an enhanced version of its previous beam attack with lightning flickering around the beam. Kiriko and Mendou quickly ducked down and dodged the attack; but, that only motivated Stellade to follow and keep up the pressure. The monster started to rapid fire the small energy blasts from its claws as they flew above the city.

They used various tactics like spinning around or shooting at the blasts of energy to cancel them out, but it seemed apparent that the Stellaroid was relentless. The two pilots started to run close to the ground, causing Stellade to abruptly land. Concrete and debris flung into the air as the kaiju screeched loudly. It started to arch its head back and roar as various electricity in the area started to flow towards the monster, further energizing it. It continued to leech energy from the surrounding area as the city witnessed it. Stellade then started to shoot various energy attacks at random places, seeming to not have a specific target in mind.

On the ground, Boutaro and Soreo were in a red wrangler Jeep, Boutaro driving while Soreo was riding shotgun. Speaking of shotgun, their plan was now going to be put into action. Soreo looked down at his communicator as the jeep stopped at a safe distance away from the action. Close enough to open fire but far enough to be relatively untouched.

"How's everything on your end Ichigo?"

"I-I can't seem to get it to work right.....I'm trying to reactivate it again, but some electrical feedback is messing with everything...."

"Darn, looks like we'll have to stick to the plan then."

He turned to Boutaro and nodded. Boutaro nodded back at him and stepped out of the vehicle, going to the back and revealing a weapon that was covered by the tarp in the back. The weapon seemed to be a rocket launcher of sorts, but no, this was no mere rocket launcher. This was something more, this was something that would pack a punch. Boutaro used the targeting systems on the weapon to lock onto the rampaging kaiju. He knelt down and continued to aim until he knew that it was just right.

"Terminal Enterpoint Ramming Killer......TWERK-ATHON MISSILE: FIRE!"

He pulled the trigger(smile, smile)and soon a large blue missile started to fly towards Stellade at high speeds. When it noticed, it was already too late. The missile had made contact with its face and blew up, causing a large explosion to floor the monster and send it to the ground, violently spasming. Boutaro stopped looking through the aim and looked at the monster like he was in an action movie.

"Your only goal: is despair....."

Kiriko heard this over communications and immediately commented on his quip.

"You sound like a neckbeard."

"You're the one with a moustache on your face", replied Boutaro cheekily.

"W-What?"

"After the mission is over, go look in the mirror and you'll see what I'm talking about....."

However, before any more shenanigans could continue, Stellade got up, smoke exiting its nostrils. It was enraged. First it gets its fight with Lightning interrupted, then its leisure time of ruining a metropolitan area is also getting snubbed. Its jimmies were quite frankly, rustled. Stellade roared and started to have electricity crackle and glow around its body. The monster looked to the sky and let out a pained cry as a large EMP started cover the area, not only shutting down anything powered by electricity, but also knocking out any stragglers or.....just knocking out the attack team members present in general. Stellade 'laughed', enjoying what appeared to be its victory in the wake of everything.

However, its victory would soon be interrupted. A bright flash of light, practically blinding shone throughout the area. That light would happen to be none other than the hero, the Ultraman, the myth, the not legend quite yet: Ultraman Rizanto. The hero turned towards Stellade before getting in his fighting stance. He charged at the monster, prompting it to touch its talons once again and shoot the energy beam; however, Rizanto leapt over it with ease and delivered a strong kick that caused the monster to fall back.

The rookie continued his assault by running towards Stellade with a chop, though the beast used the blades on its arms in place of hands to 'grab' Rizanto by the shoulders and slash at them. Were it not for its protectors, Rizanto would have been in serious trouble. Stellade and Rizanto, now on somewhat equal footing after the latter recovered started to slug it out in the city. Rizanto flung Stellade into abandoned building, Stellade kicked Rizanto in the butt, causing Rizanto to yelp in pain and be sent flying into a bakery. When he got out of the wreckage, part of the giant's face had been covered in dough, plaster, and silt. This gave it the illusion of a moustache.

Stellade started to cackle, causing Rizanto to cock his head in confusion. He then looked at a nearby pool that was in someone's backyard. Noticing the water source, he walked towards it to see what was going on. He looked in his reflection and 'gasped' before quickly wiping it off his face and turning back to Stellade, who was still laughing.

The young Ultra clenched his fists and charged forward yet again, but was quickly sent flying back by a barrage of eye blasts and energy balls from Stellade, capped off with a stream of thunder flying out of the creature's mouth. Rizanto fell into a building, causing it to crumble to the ground. Rizanto's color timer started to flash as he tried to stand up.

Stellade began to brutally stomp on Rizanto's body constantly after leaping the distance, further implanting him in the rubble. It clasped its two hook hands together and taunted Rizanto a bit before continuing its assault on the Ultra. At the LEGACY base, Ichigo looked on in horror as it seemed like nothing could be done. In one last ditch effort he pressed "ctrl" and then started typing a word. That word being "clutch".

Just as Stellade was about to use one of its hands to attack Rizanto, a slugger came flying in and dismembered it. The monster screeched in pain at the loss of its limb, giving Rizanto the opportunity to overlap his hands, the one with the Ultra-Mitten being at the bottom. He then put his hands together and shot a purple energy ball that knocked Stellade off of him. When Rizanto got up, he turned to see Ultraman Lightning touching down. The Ultra looked at Rizanto and nodded to him, Rizanto doing the same in response.

Ichigo looked up and saw what was happening from the monitor. It was glorious. Wasting no time, he had the computer store the video as well. Rizanto came at Stellade with a punch, giving Lightning the chance to leap above the rookie and hit the monster with a taser punch. The electrically charged strike caused Stellade to stagger back. The space monster roared once again before unleashing numerous lightning bolts from its body, causing Lightning and Rizanto to leap in the air and dodge.

While they were flying around in the air, Rizanto crossed his wrists before pulling his left hand back. He shot an arc of energy from his left hand that cut off Stellade's other arm, distracting the beast. Lightning followed up with an electrically charged kick to Stellade's neck, further disorienting it. Rizanto and Lightning landed on opposite sides of the monster, the former being behind it and the latter being in front of it. When the monster recovered, it tried to strike Rizanto with its sharp tail, but the Ultra quickly took hold of it and started to spin the creature around, before tossing it towards Lightning. The O-50 Ultra raised his arm blades and filled them with electrical energy before spinning around and cutting Stellade across the chest.

And Stellade collapsed to the ground, Rizanto and Lightning regrouped.

"Let's make this a fight to remember", said Rizanto proudly.

"Sure....", said Lightning, chuckling a bit.

Rizanto did similar poses before ultimately putting his hands in the + position, shooting his signature beam attack.

"Rizzium Beam!!!!"

The beam hit Stellade head on, striking the monster in the chest. Though, it seemed like it was trying to absorb the attack. However, before it could accomplish that, Lightning threw his slugger at the kaiju.

"Oh no you don't!"

The bladed weapon cut at the beast and decapitated the monster. As its head fell to the ground, the energy the Kaiju absorbed flowed out of its body, creating a large explosion.

After the battle, the sun started to set. Lightning turned to Rizanto.

”So, you must be an Ultraman from another world I’m guessing?”

”Yeah..the humans of this Earth made a device that brought you and it here.”

Lightning started walking a bit.

”Well, you weren’t half bad back there.”

Rizanto raised his arm, the one with the Ultra-Mitten.

”So, can I please have a gimmick?”

”What?”

”I-I would like you to lend me your power…..like, for the Ultra-Mitten. It will let me use some electrical attacks. I could always use those.”

Lightning shrugged.

”Sure, here you go. But it isn’t full proof.”

”Why not?”

“Your creator doesn’t own me.”

”Fair.”

Lightning outstretched his hand, a sparkling orb of energy into the Ultra-Mitten. It flash for a bit before returning back to normal.

”Alright, bye”, said Lightning.

”See ya.”

Rizanto waved as Lightning flew away.

Rizanto himself then flew away the battle now over.

At the LEGACY base, all the members were now injured, tired, and practically all asleep. Even Ichigo was knocked out.

The monitor came on. It was Mr. Kabuki.

”Well good work, the board has received your-“

He looked at what was happening.

”I see….Well, when you wake up just know, you’ve received what you wanted.”

”Honey! Come here!”, shouted a voice on Kabuki’s end.

”Oh! Uh, coming Himeko.”
