Chapter 244 Maru-Sako No. 2
The fishman felt a deep bitterness as he recalled these past events.
Once, guided by the Naga people, they traversed the vast universe with the noble mission of saving species on various planets. Every time they successfully helped an endangered species continue its lineage, watching them gradually evolve and develop in a new environment, he felt that this nomadic work was full of meaning.
But now, everything before him felt utterly alien and chilling. His former comrades, the Naga, had become so cruel and insane, attempting to destroy this vibrant planet Earth with neutron bombs.
At this moment, the team member who went to contact Yi Wu turned around anxiously: "Captain, we still can't get in touch with Yi Wu. The signal seems to be jammed."
Captain Ellis's eyes sharpened; she knew the situation was becoming increasingly critical. "Regardless, the infiltration operation will proceed as planned." She stared intently at her team members, emphasizing each word. "This mission is extremely dangerous, but we bear the heavy responsibility of saving the Earth and countless lives. Success is not an option!"
The team members responded in unison, their voices low but filled with unwavering determination. Then, they carefully opened the spaceship's hatch and, using their cloaking devices, silently made their way towards the dinosaur research institute.
The wind continued to howl, as if playing a tragic prelude to their actions. The dense forest swayed in the wind, making eerie sounds, seemingly warning of the impending danger.
The infiltrators moved nimbly through the woods like ghosts.
With their unique senses, the fish-men vigilantly observed the movements around them.
His eyes gleamed eerily in the darkness, not missing a single unusual detail.
As they approached the dinosaur research institute, they discovered that its defenses were even more stringent than they had imagined.
Naga patrols constantly lingered in the area, their searchlight beams like sharp blades cutting through the darkness.
"Be careful, don't give yourself away," the fishman whispered, reminding his teammates. The team members nodded and pressed themselves against the walls and obstacles, inching closer to their target.
Just as they were approaching Yiwu's location, suddenly, one of the team members accidentally kicked a discarded metal part, which fell to the ground with a crisp sound. Instantly, the atmosphere became tense, and the patrol's footsteps rapidly drew closer.
"Damn it, we've been discovered!" Fishman thought to himself, realizing the danger. He quickly drew his weapon, preparing for the impending battle. His teammates also went into battle mode, their eyes showing no sign of hesitation.
In an instant, the bright light of searchlights enveloped them, and a group of Naga soldiers appeared before them, their weapons pointed at them.
"It seems a fierce battle is inevitable." The merman gritted his teeth, silently praying that this unexpected event wouldn't affect the overall mission's progress, and even more so, that they could successfully prevent the neutron bomb from exploding and salvage the precarious situation...
On the spaceship, Captain Ellis stared intently at the monitor screen, his hands unconsciously clenching into fists.
Her eyes revealed worry, but even more so, trust in her teammates and a firm belief in stopping the crisis.
She silently cheered on her team members, hoping they would successfully complete their mission and return safely...
"Fire!" a fierce shout rang out from the Naga soldiers, and instantly, beams of energy shot towards the merman and his companions. The merman swiftly dodged to the side, the beams grazing his body and striking nearby tree trunks, emitting a pungent, acrid smell.
"Scatter and counterattack!" the merman roared, and the team members immediately scattered, using the surrounding cover to avoid the attack and seizing opportunities to retaliate. In an instant, the sounds of gunfire and the whooshing of energy beams mingled together, shattering the tranquility of the night.
The merfolk's weapons emitted blue beams of light, aimed precisely at the Naga soldiers. Each flash of light was accompanied by a Naga soldier's scream. But the Naga were numerous and well-trained; their attacks came wave after wave, showing no signs of abating.
One of the team members was unfortunately hit by an enemy beam, staggered, and fell to the ground. Seeing this, the fishman was frantic. Disregarding his own safety, he rushed towards the team member, trying to drag him to safety.
"Murloc, watch out!" His teammate shouted. Murloc instinctively turned around and saw a thick beam of energy heading straight for him. In the nick of time, he leaped to the side with all his might. The beam struck the ground behind him, blasting a large crater and splashing him with dirt and rubble.
"We can't just sit here and wait to die!" The merman steadied himself and pondered a solution. He observed the positions of the Naga soldiers around him and noticed a relatively weak point in their defenses behind them.
"Concentrate fire on their rear!" the murloc shouted. His men understood and turned their fire towards the Naga soldiers' rear. The concentrated attack threw the Naga soldiers into disarray, causing a brief period of chaos.
"Now's the chance, charge!" The merman seized the opportunity and charged ahead towards Yiwu's location. The team members followed closely behind, fighting their way through a hail of bullets.
Finally, they broke through the Naga's defenses and arrived at the building where Yiwu was. The merfolk, catching their breath, hurriedly searched for the entrance. Just then, the building's door suddenly opened, and Yiwu appeared in the doorway, her face filled with anxiety and worry.
"Why are you here? It's too dangerous here!" Yi Wu shouted.
"There's no time to explain, Yiwu, come with us, we must stop the neutron bomb from exploding!" the fishman said urgently.
Yi Wu nodded slightly. Knowing the situation was urgent, she didn't hesitate and quickly left with the fish-man and the others.
However, the Naga quickly recovered and reorganized their forces to give chase. The fish-men and their crew fought off the pursuers while escorting Imu back towards the spaceship.
On the spaceship, Captain Ellis felt a huge weight lifted from her shoulders as she watched her team successfully evacuate with Yiwu. However, seeing the Naga relentlessly pursuing them, she couldn't help but worry about her team's safety.
"Prepare for covering fire!" Captain Ellis decisively ordered. The ship's weapon systems immediately activated, unleashing powerful beams of light towards the Naga pursuers. Under the ship's cover fire, the fish-men and their crew finally made it safely back to the ship.
"Take off!" Captain Iris shouted. The spaceship quickly ascended, shaking off the Naga pursuers.
The fishman slumped to the ground, exhausted and panting heavily. Yi Wu walked to his side and said with a guilty look, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I couldn't stop all of this in time."
The fishman waved his hand: "Now is not the time to blame ourselves. The most urgent task is to find a way to disable the neutron bomb."
Captain Ellis looked at everyone, her eyes resolute: "That's right, everyone has worked hard, but our mission is not yet complete. Ellis, you are more familiar with the dinosaur's control system, do you have a way to locate the neutron bomb and deactivate it?"
After a moment of contemplation, Yi Wu said, "I'll give it a try, but it will take some time to analyze the system data."
"Okay, as soon as possible!" Captain Ellis said, her gaze drifting to the still chaotic Earth outside the window, silently praying that the crisis would be resolved soon...
Iwu escaped successfully, but Adam continued to follow the Naga's orders.
He even directly activated the Maru-Bō-Nezha II, which the Naga people had left on Earth.
An alarm blared shrilly inside the spaceship, and the radar screen clearly showed the massive silhouette of Maru-Sakunaza II slowly starting up. Captain Iris's face instantly turned ashen; her eyes were glued to the screen, her jaw clenched, and her hands gripped the armrests of her seat involuntarily.
"That Adam guy has completely gone mad!" The merman angrily slammed his fist on the control panel next to him, causing the indicator lights on it to flash.
Yi Wu's face was equally grim. Her fingers flew across the control panel, and her forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat from tension and focus. "I'll try to hack into the system of the Hako-maru Ponaiza II to see if I can stop it from taking any further action."
However, the Naga people's system security was extremely tight, and Yi Wu's attempts were ruthlessly rejected time and time again. "No, they have set up multiple layers of encryption protection, and I can't break through in a short time." Yi Wu raised her head, her eyes filled with anxiety and helplessness.
At this moment, Maru-Sakunaza II was fully operational, marching heavily towards the Dinosaur Research Institute, each step causing the earth to tremble. Trees were mercilessly felled in its path, raising clouds of dust.
"We can't let it get close to the Dinosaur Research Institute! There are still many innocent people there!" Captain Iris stood up abruptly, her eyes filled with determination. "Attention everyone, prepare to attack Maru-Sakunaza II!"
The spaceship quickly adjusted its course and flew towards Maru-Sako-Nezha II. Upon approaching the target, the spaceship's weapon systems activated at full power, unleashing a barrage of dazzling energy beams towards Maru-Sako-Nezha II.
The beam struck the outer shell of the Marupo Neza II, erupting in bursts of dazzling sparks, but only momentarily halting its movements. Adam, piloting the Marupo Neza II, swiftly launched a counterattack. Its shoulder-mounted turrets spewed forth streams of scorching energy, surging towards the spaceship.
The spaceship began to shake violently, and alarms blared incessantly. "Shield energy has dropped to sixty percent!" the team member responsible for monitoring the shields reported loudly.
"Hold on, keep attacking!" Captain Ellis's voice was calm and firm, giving the team a shot in the arm.
The fishman gripped the weapon joystick tightly, his eyes fixed on the Maru-Po-Nezha II on the screen, constantly adjusting the firing angle. His face was filled with determination, and he muttered to himself, "I can't let you succeed."
Although the spaceship's attack inflicted some damage on the Maru-Sakunaza II, its counterattack was equally fierce. The spaceship's shield energy was rapidly depleting, and the situation was becoming increasingly critical.
Just then, Yiwu suddenly shouted, "I've found the location of Marupo Neza II's energy core! If we can concentrate our firepower there, we might be able to disable its power!"
Upon hearing this, Captain Iris immediately ordered: "All weapons, concentrate your attack on the energy core!"
The spaceship's weapons were powered to maximum, and all the energy beams converged into a thick beam, shooting towards the energy core of the Marupo Neza II.
Just as the beam was about to strike, Adam seemed to sense the danger and tried to dodge by maneuvering Maru-Neza II. But it was too late; the powerful energy beam struck the energy core with unerring accuracy.
Maru-sho Naiza II's body trembled violently. Then, its lights went out one by one, and its massive body slowly collapsed, raising a huge cloud of dust.
"We did it!" A cheer erupted inside the spaceship. The team members hugged each other, celebrating their hard-won victory.
However, before everyone could even bask in their joy, they received news from the ground. Upon learning that Marubonaiza II had been destroyed, the Naga people were preparing to personally intervene and fire neutron bombs.
Captain Ellis's gaze turned serious again. Looking at her team members, she said firmly, "We cannot give up. We must find and neutralize the neutron bomb before the Naga people do. This is our last chance. For the Earth, for all life, let's go!"
The team members nodded in agreement, their fighting spirit rekindled in their eyes.
The spaceship set off again, speeding towards the direction where the Naga people might have hidden the neutron bomb. An even greater challenge awaited them...
Upon seeing the suddenly appearing fleet, the members of the Victory Team immediately took precautions.
Upon seeing this, Captain Ellis hurriedly identified himself to the Victory Team via the broadcast: "Friends of the Victory Team, we mean no harm. Earth is facing a great crisis, and we are here to fight the Naga together!"
Upon hearing the broadcast, the GUTS team members relaxed their guard slightly but remained on high alert. Captain Megumi stepped out of the command center and contacted Captain Iris via communications: "Who exactly are you people? Why did you suddenly appear here, and why are you saying there's a crisis on Earth?"
Captain Ellis briefly explained their origins and the Naga's sinister plan to destroy Earth with neutron bombs. Captain Megumi's expression turned grim upon hearing this: "I see. I didn't expect such a force to be secretly plotting. We will cooperate fully with you."
Both sides quickly reached a consensus on cooperation and began to discuss countermeasures together.
The Naga people knew things were out of control, so they activated their last energy source. The mechanical dinosaurs stopped fighting back and, relying on their tough armor, walked towards another mechanical dinosaur despite the barrage of fire.
Horii shouted, "Oh no! If the neutron bombs on them touch them, all life on Earth will be wiped out!"
The two fleets joined forces and used the freezing beam to contain the enemy.
However, although there was some effect, it was not significant.
At that moment, a flash of light appeared, and Naga's body materialized opposite the two mechanical dragons.
Shinjo: "Naga, it's Ultraman Naga!"
Lina: "Ultraman Naga is here! We're saved!"
