"And another thing… 'Warrior of Miracles'? Isn't that title a bit over the top? What exactly counts as a miracle?"
Garp lounged lazily in his chair. The meeting had given him a splitting headache, so watching an intense video sounded like the perfect way to relax.
"Aren't you curious at all?" Sengoku said darkly. "What's the limit of this Multiverse Projection Platform's power?"
He had already seen Uchiha Madara's post claiming he'd received some kind of reward. No one knew what the reward actually was, but the very idea of such uncontrollable power made Sengoku uneasy.
"And what are you going to do about it?" Garp replied casually. "Sometimes thinking too much about this stuff just wears you out."
To him, analyzing power structures and cosmic mysteries was nothing but trouble.
"Garp, you idiot!!"
"Alright, alright. Let's just watch the video first."
Vice Admiral Tsuru quickly stepped in, cutting off their argument. Her attention had already been captured by the video's cover image.
The video opened with an empty city.
Silent.
Dead.
"What's going on with that city? Why isn't there a single person there?"
Naruto Uzumaki shouted in the forum, unable to hold himself back.
No one responded.
Everyone was completely absorbed in the ominous atmosphere of the video.
Naruto clicked his tongue and stopped trying to get attention. He focused on the screen instead.
Suddenly—
The city tore apart.
BOOM!!!
A thunderous explosion ripped through the sky.
The earth seemed to shatter as enormous fireballs fell like a meteor shower. In an instant, the entire city turned into a blazing wasteland.
Then a massive phantom appeared in the sky, letting out a wild, arrogant laugh.
"Still alive down there? The last scraps of humanity on this land!"
"Despair and fear are Zetton's food!"
"This time… enjoy the taste of death!!"
The phantom twisted and distorted, its shape transforming until it condensed into a gigantic monster.
A terrifying creature descended upon the world—
Hyper Zetton.
A being born for destruction.
"Zetton has fully awakened! Consider this a celebratory salute!"
The declaration rang out with chilling brutality.
On screen, the monster's ancient armored shell bulged along its body. Then from deep within its back—
Endless fireballs blasted out.
Like celestial meteors, they rained down across the world.
Its face resembled the original Zetton, but the long horns on its head curved inward like giant pincers ready to crush the planet itself. Dark, flexible limbs extended from its body like living shadows.
This form wasn't even its final stage.
It was only—
Hyper Zetton's larval form.
And that so-called "salute"?
It was nothing less than the gates of hell opening.
Naruto World
Nagato's pupils shrank sharply.
He swallowed dryly.
Even through the screen, he could feel the overwhelming destructive aura radiating from those fireballs.
Each one, he estimated, carried enough power to rip the earth apart.
Even if he gathered the full strength of the Rinnegan, he wasn't confident he could completely erase such attacks with Shinra Tensei.
"What kind of monster is that…?"
Beside him, Konan's beautiful face was frozen in shock.
"I feel like its power level is beyond every Tailed Beast combined."
She was certain of one thing.
Even the Nine-Tails at full power couldn't produce destruction on that scale.
This wasn't just stronger.
It was an entirely different dimension of power.
Dragon Ball World
Son Goku looked unusually serious.
But his attention wasn't fully on the monster.
What truly unsettled him was the scene at the start.
A thriving city had existed one moment.
And the next—
It was completely empty.
As if every trace of life had been erased from existence.
"What did that weird thing do…?"
"Did it wipe out every living being instantly?"
Land of Light – Ultraman Universe
"What!? A Bat Alien!?"
The Father of Ultra shouted in surprise.
When he first saw the title of the video, he had been confused.
Hyper Zetton wasn't even recorded in the Land of Light's monster database.
Because in their current timeline, the Bat Alien hadn't yet completed the creation of that ultimate biological weapon.
But now—
The entire hall of Ultramen fell into heavy silence.
Especially Ultraman himself.
He didn't know what Hyper Zetton was.
But he knew exactly what Zetton meant.
That cosmic dinosaur had once been his greatest humiliation—the enemy that defeated him and knocked him down.
He knew better than anyone how terrifying Zetton was.
"What kind of disaster is that damned Bat Alien trying to unleash?!"
Ultraman's blue face grew grim.
The firepower released by Hyper Zetton's larval form alone was already horrifying.
And this was only a larva.
If it matured into its final form…
How catastrophic would that power become?
The Father of Ultra immediately made a decision.
His voice echoed with absolute authority.
"Ultraman. Assemble an elite squad from the Space Garrison immediately. Track down the Bat Aliens and eliminate them before this threat fully emerges."
Ultraman suppressed the storm of emotions in his heart and saluted.
"Yes!"
He turned and strode out of the meeting hall.
He was curious about what would happen next in the video—but real danger mattered more than images on a screen.
"Father, let me go with Brother Ultraman!" Taro said urgently.
The Father of Ultra shook his head.
"When facing an enemy like Zetton, Ultraman has the most experience. Trust your brother."
Taro clenched his fists but forced himself to stay.
Inside the chamber, the Father and Mother of Ultra, along with the remaining Ultra Brothers, stared intently at the screen.
They needed every piece of combat data they could gather about Hyper Zetton.
Otherwise, when the real encounter came…
The Land of Light might be completely unprepared.
Back in the video—
The endless fireballs continued raining down.
The scene shifted to a ruined factory district.
Several adults and a group of terrified children ran through the explosions, desperately searching for a way to survive.
Then—
A determined blue figure appeared.
A young man in a blue jacket ran in the opposite direction of the fleeing crowd.
Straight toward the danger.
A massive fireball screamed through the sky, about to crash into the children's hiding place.
The young man suddenly stopped.
He pulled a glowing device from his chest.
"COSMOS!!!"
His desperate cry echoed across the battlefield.
Blinding blue light erupted from his body like the birth of a new star.
When the light faded—
The young man was gone.
In his place stood a towering blue giant.
Ultraman Cosmos had arrived.
He thrust both hands forward.
A brilliant golden barrier appeared instantly, blocking the incoming fireball.
The next second—
Cosmos shot into the sky.
He crossed his arms and fired a powerful beam toward the storm of flames.
The moment the beam collided with the fireballs—
It was like a nuclear test going off in the sky.
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!
Explosions roared endlessly.
The entire sky turned apocalyptic red.
But Hyper Zetton's firepower was simply too dense.
Within moments, Cosmos was swallowed by the massive explosions and smoke.
Even as he resisted the flames, more deadly fireballs pierced through the smoke and plunged toward him like rain.
BOOM!!!
One blazing projectile struck directly—
Right on Cosmos's chest energy core.
"HAH!!"
Cosmos cried out in pain.
His massive body fell from the sky like a kite with its strings cut.
BOOM!!!
He slammed into the ground.
The earth split apart from the impact, leaving a huge crater.
Anyone watching couldn't help but gasp.
With Cosmos down, the rain of fireballs found their targets again.
They smashed toward the ground.
The children and the few remaining adults could only scream in terror as they ran.
Helplessness.
Confusion.
Absolute despair.
It spread across the battlefield.
Cosmos struggled to stand again.
Once more he became a barrier protecting the defenseless humans behind him.
But against a tide of world-destroying energy—
Even an Ultraman looked small.
Soon the blue giant was swallowed by an endless ocean of flames.
"HAH!!"
Within the inferno, human screams mixed with the suppressed cries of the Ultra warrior.
Together they silently announced to every world in the multiverse—
The terrifying power of the strongest monster in history.
Tiga Ultraman World
"What is that!?"
"An Ultraman!?"
Horii and Shinjo stared at the screen in shock as the blue-clad youth transformed into Ultraman Cosmos.
"Ultraman… is actually a human?!" Horii blurted out, as if he'd discovered a secret that shattered the laws of science.
They had faced monsters many times recently, and Tiga had saved the world again and again.
But never—not once—had Horii imagined that Ultraman's true form could be human.
Hearing that, Daigo's heart skipped a beat.
A flash of nervousness crossed his face. He was terrified his own secret might be exposed.
Captain Iruma's calm voice cut through the room.
"Horii, forget about whether Ultraman is human for now. This is at least the second—no, the third Ultraman we've seen. Focus on gathering information."
"Third," Horii corrected immediately. "You can't ignore the evil Ultraman."
Iruma smiled helplessly.
"Alright, third."
"This is actually a great opportunity. We can collect more data on Ultraman's abilities. It could help us greatly in future battles."
Daigo glanced at her in surprise.
For some reason, he felt there was a deeper meaning behind her words.
"Leave it to me, Captain!" Horii said proudly, thumping his chest. "I'll record every bit of his data!"
But Daigo kept staring at the screen.
At Cosmos—
The Ultraman who threw himself into the flames to protect ordinary lives.
"Why…"
he murmured softly.
Until now, he had never fully understood the weight of being Ultraman.
But seeing Cosmos fight so desperately to protect the weak stirred something deep inside him.
For the first time…
He was starting to understand what it truly meant to become Ultraman.
Land of Light
"That's… Ultraman Cosmos!?" Ace exclaimed.
Cosmos was famous even in the Land of Light.
His philosophy of compassion was known by almost everyone.
"Facing Hyper Zetton alone… Cosmos probably can't handle it," Ultraman Jack said anxiously.
"Enough. Keep watching."
The Father of Ultra silenced the room.
No matter how worried they were, gathering information came first.
Bleach World
"Damn… that giant's fate is brutal," Ichigo muttered, swallowing nervously.
Watching Cosmos struggle in the sea of fire was shocking.
"That monster is more terrifying than any Hollow," Rukia said gravely.
Even through the screen, the destructive force made her spiritual pressure tremble uncontrollably.
If someone had to face that monster directly…
How overwhelming would that pressure be?
She didn't know.
But one thing was certain.
Her power alone could never defeat such a creature.
Even the entire Soul Society might struggle to handle it.
Back in the video—
The camera rose into the sky.
The factory district had already become scorched ruins.
Thanks to Cosmos's desperate defense, the surviving humans were spared.
But Musashi—the human host of Cosmos—staggered weakly toward the survivors.
The battle had clearly left him gravely injured.
Then the screen suddenly went black.
Cold text appeared.
"The Next Day."
The sudden shift confused viewers across countless worlds.
When the image returned, the sky was dark and gloomy.
Like the calm before an unavoidable final battle.
On the ground—
Musashi, still wearing his blue jacket, walked toward the factory gates.
Beside him walked a young man in a Super GUTS combat uniform.
"....."
