THE BLUE SAGA
Saga — Special Chapter 7
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Backstory...
10 Years Ago (Earth Time)
Planet Orivion
A silver spacecraft descended through the glowing skies of Orivion.
Below it stretched a world unlike anything seen on Earth.
Towering cities floated among the clouds.
Advanced technology illuminated the horizon.
Strange creatures roamed across endless landscapes.
The entire planet looked alive.
Blue stared outside the spacecraft window.
His eyes sparkled with curiosity.
Blue - wow...
Nova...
This planet is really beautiful.
Nova folded her arms proudly.
Nova - Whose planet is it after all? ᕙ( ¤ 〰 ¤ )ᕗ
Blue - yours. (◠‿◕)
Nova - yeah...
The spacecraft continued forward.
Soon Blue noticed massive fields stretching endlessly across the land.
Blue - hey!
Nova.
What do you all grow in these fields?
Nova glanced outside.
Nova - this?
We call it Taron.
It's our special food.
We only eat it once a week.
Blue - once a week?
Nova nodded.
Nova - yep.
Eat it once...
and you won't feel hungry for the entire week.
Blue - really?
Sounds pretty amazing...
for you mortals.
Nova - (・∀・)
What?!
Why do you keep calling us mortals?
Blue leaned back confidently.
Blue - because I already told you.
I'm not an ordinary mortal.
I was immortal once.
Not anymore...
at least according to my mother.
But whatever the case...
I'm still far superior to all of you.
In powers.
In aging.
In everything.
Nova - (☉｡☉)!
Blue...
Blue pointed at himself proudly.
Blue - and don't forget.
I am the son of God Xylon...
and the Demon Revan.
Nova - okay... (☉｡☉)!
Blue - ...
Nova - ...
Blue - ...
Nova - let's go.
I'll introduce you to my father.
Blue - sure.
Let's go.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Soon...
the spacecraft landed near the Royal Palace.
The palace stood directly at Orivion's North Pole.
A gigantic structure made from silver-white metal.
Energy streams flowed through its walls.
The moment Nova and Blue entered...
they discovered a meeting already in progress.
Generals.
Scientists.
Politicians.
Military commanders.
The entire hall was filled with discussion.
Then—
Nova - father!
The hall instantly became silent.
Father - huh?!
Nova?!
His eyes widened.
The king immediately stood up and rushed forward.
Father - ༼;´༎ຶ ༎ຶ༽
Nova!!
You finally left the force!
I'm so happy you came back!!
DGGGGGGGG...
Nova casually extended her leg.
Her foot stopped directly in front of his face.
Father froze.
Blue - damn... (☉｡☉)!
Nova - ಠಗಠ
That's exactly why I didn't come back.
And I still don't want to come back.
Father - ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
Nova...
Nova - I have a planet to protect.
A force to command.
I'm not going to sit on a throne all day giving orders.
Blue - (・o・)
Father - ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
I thought you were finally returning...
Nova sighed.
Nova - ahhh...
Listen.
I never went anywhere.
Father - but Nova—
Nova - I said...
I NEVER went anywhere.
Father - ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
Fine...
So tell me.
Why did you come here?
Nova paused.
Nova - ...
Actually...
I forgot because of you.
Father - huh?
Nova pointed behind her.
Nova - I wanted you to meet our new member.
He'll be joining Group Six.
Father - who?
Nova - Blue.
Father blinked.
Father - who is Blue?
I don't see anyone.
Nova turned around confidently.
Nova - he's literally standing behind m—
...
Nova - bluuuuuuuuue?!
＼(°o°)／
Where did he go now?!
Nova looked around the hall in confusion.
Nova - bluuuuuuuuue?!
＼(°o°)／
Where did he go now?!
A loud commotion suddenly erupted from the far end of the hall.
Members - GET DOWN FROM THERE!!
THAT IS NOT YOUR SEAT!!
GO AWAY!!
Nova slowly turned toward the throne.
Then froze.
Nova - huh...?
(☉｡☉)!
Blue was sitting comfortably on the king's throne.
One leg crossed over the other.
A huge grin on his face.
As if he had ruled the planet his entire life.
Blue - ( ╹▽╹ )
Hahaha!
From today...
I am the king of all of you!
The hall fell completely silent.
Father - (゜o゜;
What...
Nova - blueeeeeeeeeeeee!!
ヽ༼⁰o⁰;༽ノ
Blue raised one hand dramatically.
Blue - Nova!
You shall always remain my leader...
But from today...
all of them are my slaves.
Father - ...
Members - ...
Nova - ...
Blue pointed toward everyone inside the hall.
Blue - I don't think you heard me.
I said...
KNEEL BEFORE YOUR NEW KING!
Members - ಠ︵ಠ
GET DOWN!!
Blue - salute me!
Members - NO!!
Blue - SALUTE ME!!
Nova slowly clenched her fist.
A dangerous smile appeared on her face.
Nova - Blue...
Last warning.
Blue casually leaned deeper into the throne.
Blue - hahaha...
You followers of the old king...
Your new ruler has arrived.
Now salute me.
Nova - fine.
Blue - I SAID SALUTE ME—
Nova raised her hand.
Nova - Platinum Apex...
Level 2.
Blue - huh...?
Wait wha—
(_)
ZZZZZZZZZZ...
Blue immediately collapsed sideways on the throne.
The entire hall became silent.
Members - ...
Father - ...
Nova rubbed her forehead.
Nova - huhhh...
I'm sorry, father.
Looks like today's introduction didn't go very well.
The members slowly sighed in relief.
Meanwhile...
Father remained completely focused on Blue.
His expression had changed.
The playful atmosphere disappeared from his face.
Father - ಠಿ_ಠಿ
Interesting...
Nova - huh?
Father - he walked into a royal meeting...
sat directly on the king's throne...
and showed absolutely no fear.
Nova blinked.
Father continued staring at the sleeping Blue.
Father - ordinary people don't do things like that.
There's something special about him.
Nova - ...
Father - a very strange person.
Nova - well...
that part is true.
Father - U^ｪ^U
I like him already.
Nova - ಠ_ಠ
Father.
Father - what?
Nova - don't start.
Father - I'm just saying.
He's perfect for my daughter.
Nova - FATHER!!
Father - okay okay!!
(╥﹏╥)
I'm quiet.
Nova sighed deeply.
Then walked toward the sleeping Blue.
Nova - come on.
Let's go.
Blue remained completely unconscious.
Still sleeping peacefully.
Nova grabbed him and began dragging him across the floor.
Blue - zzzzz...
Father watched them leave.
A small smile appeared on his face.
Father - hmm...
That boy...
I feel like we'll meet again.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
2 Years Later...
Much had changed across Orivion.
Blue had participated in countless missions.
Countless battles.
Countless victories.
His reputation had spread across several planets.
And today...
Nova had called him once again.
Blue stretched lazily while walking beside her.
Blue - so...
Why did you call me this time, leader?
Nova smiled slightly.
Nova - because you've helped us a lot.
You've fought beside us.
Protected planets.
Saved civilians.
And helped my team more times than I can count.
Blue - no problem, Leader Nova.
ᕙ( : ˘ ∧ ˘ : )ᕗ
Nova - that's why...
I want you to meet the rest of my team.
Blue's eyes lit up.
Blue - ooooo...
Let's go.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A few moments later...
Nova brought Blue to a large training facility.
Several individuals were already waiting there.
Nova folded her arms.
Nova - everyone.
This is Blue.
Blue waved casually.
Blue - yo.
Nova pointed toward the first member.
Nova - Trillium.
Trillium raised his hand immediately.
Trillium - yo...
ᕙ(͡°‿ ͡°)ᕗ
Blue - nice.
Nova pointed toward another member.
Nova - Io.
Io smiled.
Io - hey.
ᕙ( • ‿ • )ᕗ
Blue nodded.
Nova - Nebula.
Nebula waved cheerfully.
Nebula - hi everyone.
୧(＾ 〰 ＾)୨
Blue - hello.
Nova finally pointed toward the last person.
Nova - and...
my little brother.
Nairo.
Nairo slowly raised his hand.
Nairo - h...
(-_-)/
Blue stared at him.
_
Blue - Nairo...
Hmmmm...
Nairo - ?
Blue - you look depressed.
Nairo - ...
Nova - ignore him.
Blue - understandable.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nova suddenly became serious.
Nova - alright everyone.
Listen carefully.
Blue and I are leaving for a mission.
Until we return...
the safety of Orivion is your responsibility.
The group immediately nodded.
Trillium - got it.
Io - understood.
Nebula - leave it to us.
Nairo - yes.
Nova smiled.
Nova - good.
Let's move.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Outside...
A silver spacecraft waited on the launch platform.
SSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHMMMMM!!!
The engines ignited.
Blue and Nova entered.
Moments later...
The spacecraft shot into space.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Inside The Spacecraft...
Blue sat near the window.
Watching stars pass by at impossible speeds.
Blue - Nova.
Where exactly are we going?
Nova remained focused on the controls.
Nova - a planet called G742.
Located southwest of Orivion.
Blue - hmm...
What happened there?
Nova's expression darkened.
Nova - someone attacked the planet.
Blue - ...
Nova - entire cities were destroyed.
People are being captured.
Especially females.
Blue slowly looked away from the window.
The atmosphere inside the spacecraft suddenly felt heavier.
Blue - hmmm...
Nova increased the ship's speed.
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
The stars outside stretched into streams of light.
Nova - we'll know the full situation once we arrive.
Blue closed his eyes.
Blue - I have a bad feeling about this mission.
Nova glanced toward him.
Nova - me too.
The spacecraft continued racing through space.
Toward Planet G742.
Toward a battlefield neither of them had expected.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Planet G742
SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...
The spacecraft finally entered the planet's atmosphere.
Blue looked outside.
Then his expression changed instantly.
Blue - damn...
ತ_ತ
Nova...
What happened here?
Below them...
the entire planet was burning.
Missiles streaked across the sky.
Explosions echoed endlessly.
Cities had collapsed into ruins.
Smoke covered the horizon.
People were running everywhere.
Some were injured.
Some were crying.
Some were desperately trying to survive.
SSSSSHHHHHHHHH...
BOOOOOMMMMM!!!
Another explosion erupted below.
Blue slowly clenched his fist.
Blue - this isn't a battle anymore...
It's a massacre.
Nova narrowed her eyes.
Nova - Cygons...
Blue looked toward her.
Blue - Cygons?
Nova nodded.
Nova - their original homeworld...
Planet G842...
was destroyed years ago during a war against Orivion.
Blue - hmm...
Nova - I thought their species disappeared with it.
But somehow...
they survived.
Blue stared at the battlefield below.
Blue - listening to you...
I feel like something much worse is happening here.
Nova - ...
Let's find out.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The spacecraft descended.
MSMSMSMSMSMSMSMSM...
A few moments later...
it landed near the remains of a destroyed city.
Blue and Nova stepped outside.
The atmosphere felt heavy.
Almost suffocating.
Broken buildings surrounded them.
Destroyed vehicles littered the streets.
The smell of smoke filled the air.
Blue looked around silently.
Nova - ತ_ತ
This is bad...
Blue - yeah.
The fighting has been going on for hours.
Maybe even longer.
Shhhhh...
A faint sound echoed nearby.
Blue immediately turned.
Blue - huh?
Then his eyes widened.
Blue - NOVA!!
BE CAREFUL!!
Nova - wait what—
A massive object suddenly shot toward them.
Blue's hand moved instantly.
Blue - Plasma Core...
Level 1...
Astara Vortex.
⚡
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
A compressed vortex of plasma energy formed in his palm.
The surrounding air distorted violently.
Then—
BOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!
The vortex exploded forward.
The incoming projectile was swallowed instantly.
Torn apart.
Erased before it could reach them.
Shockwaves blasted through the area.
Dust scattered everywhere.
Nova stared.
Nova - huh...
Blue lowered his hand.
Blue - you okay?
Nova smiled slightly.
Nova - thanks.
Blue - hmmm.
Nova looked around carefully.
Nova - wait...
Who threw that?
Blue slowly unsheathed his katana.
Blue - stay alert.
Someone's watching us.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Both immediately moved back-to-back.
Watching every direction.
Listening.
Waiting.
The battlefield suddenly became silent.
Too silent.
Blue - ...
Nova - ...
Then—
SHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Something descended from above.
Blue looked upward.
Blue - what—
Nova's eyes widened.
Nova - BLUE!!
MOVE!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!
The ground exploded beneath him.
Without hesitation...
Nova grabbed Blue.
WHOOSHHHHH!!!
Both shot into the air.
Debris scattered everywhere.
Blue blinked.
Blue - ...
Thanks.
Although I would've survived.
ಠಗಠ
Nova smirked.
Nova - oh really?
Cute.
ᕙ(͡°‿ ͡°)ᕗ
Blue - damn...
Anyway...
I know what you're doing.
That level of trick doesn't work on me.
ᕙ( : ˘ ∧ ˘ : )ᕗ
Nova - really?
Cute.
ᕙ(͡°‿ ͡°)ᕗ
Blue - ⊙﹏⊙
Fine.
You saved me.
Nova - good.
ᕙ( ¤ 〰 ¤ )ᕗ
Both looked upward.
Far above the battlefield...
a gigantic warship floated in the sky.
Blue - ...
That's huge.
Nova narrowed her eyes.
Nova - I think that's their command ship.
Blue - meaning...
their leader is probably inside.
Nova nodded.
Nova - exactly.
Blue slowly landed back on the ground.
Blue - then let's split up.
Nova - huh?
Blue pointed toward the civilians.
Blue - I'll save the people here.
You go after the leader.
Nova thought for a moment.
Then nodded.
Nova - alright.
Blue.
Be careful.
Blue smirked.
Blue - leader...
you worry too much.
Nova entered flight mode.
SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
She launched toward the massive warship.
Blue watched her disappear into the sky.
Then slowly turned toward the burning city.
Blue - huh...
Let's see what I can do here
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Blue slowly descended toward the ruined city below.
Smoke filled the air.
Fires continued burning across the streets.
Collapsed buildings surrounded him from every direction.
Blue - hah...
Let's see what we can do now.
Then—
A desperate voice echoed nearby.
Injured Man - please...
Let me go...
I haven't done anything to you...
Why are you attacking our planet?
Blue immediately turned.
Several Cygons stood around an injured civilian.
Their weapons were covered in blood.
The man could barely stand.
Cygon - people like you have no right to ask questions.
The injured man stepped back in fear.
Then—
A calm voice interrupted them.
Blue - then maybe someone like me does.
The Cygons froze.
Slowly turning around.
Cygon - huh...?
Who are you?
Blue placed one hand on his katana.
Blue - me?
You'll find out after fighting me.
A cold smile appeared on his face.
Blue - come.
Let's begin.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HAAAAAHHHHH!!
One of the Cygons charged first.
Blue vanished.
SHHHHHHHHH!!!
A silver flash crossed the battlefield.
Cygon - h...h...
The Cygon's body froze.
A thin red line appeared across his neck.
THUD.
His body collapsed instantly.
The remaining Cygons stepped back.
Blue calmly placed his katana on his shoulder.
Blue - there is no friend worthy of my friendship...
and no sword capable of surviving my enmity.
A dangerous aura surrounded him.
Blue - now come here...
you fools.
Cygons - HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!
The entire group rushed him.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
BOOOOM!!
DMMMM!!
SHHHHH!!
The battlefield exploded into chaos.
Massive Cygon arms smashed through buildings.
Blue's katana flashed repeatedly through the smoke.
One slash.
Two slashes.
Ten slashes.
Bodies continued falling.
Blue moved like a phantom.
Every movement precise.
Every strike lethal.
Cygon - THERE!!
Another Cygon lunged forward.
Blue ducked beneath the attack.
SHHHHH!!!
A clean horizontal slash cut across the enemy's chest.
BOOOM!!
The body crashed through a nearby wall.
Another attacked.
Then another.
Then another.
Yet none of them could touch him.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Blue finally stopped moving.
His breathing remained calm.
The remaining Cygons surrounded him.
Blue slowly raised his head.
Blue - it's over.
The Plasma Core embedded within his body began glowing.
⚡
⚡⚡
⚡⚡⚡
Blue - Plasma Core...
Level 2.
The atmosphere immediately changed.
Electricity erupted around his body.
The ground cracked beneath his feet.
The surrounding air became unstable.
Cygons - what is that...?
One of them suddenly raised both hands.
A blinding light began gathering between them.
Cygon - SHIN...
THE...
SA...
☀️
The light expanded rapidly.
Blue narrowed his eyes.
Blue - huh...
Interesting.
Several other Cygons immediately joined.
Cygons - SHIN...
THE...
SA...
The entire battlefield lit up.
Multiple energy blasts prepared simultaneously.
Blue smiled.
Blue - then let's make this fun.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Blue spread both arms.
Lightning exploded outward.
⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡
The clouds above suddenly darkened.
Winds began howling violently.
The ground trembled.
The Cygons froze.
Blue - Lightning...
Maelstrom.
⚡🌪️
SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
A colossal vortex of lightning and plasma erupted around him.
The tornado expanded instantly.
Buildings shattered.
Vehicles were thrown into the sky.
The battlefield disappeared beneath the storm.
Cygons - WHAT THE—?!
The tornado dragged them inward.
Lightning strikes rained endlessly.
BOOOOOM!!!
DMMMMMM!!!
KRAAAAKKKK!!!
Every impact triggered another explosion.
The entire area became a sea of plasma and lightning.
Some Cygons were vaporized instantly.
Others were launched hundreds of meters away.
The storm swallowed everything.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Inside the vortex—
Blue moved.
SHHHHHHHHH!!!
Like a phantom.
Like a predator.
One by one...
he passed through the trapped enemies.
His katana flashed repeatedly.
A silver line.
Then another.
Then another.
The Cygons never even saw him move.
Blue appeared behind them.
The storm slowly began fading.
The battlefield became silent.
Blue calmly returned his sword to its sheath.
CLICK.
Blue - huhhh...
Got it, baby.
Behind him—
THUD.
THUD.
THUD.
Every remaining Cygon collapsed simultaneously.
The battle was over.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The injured man stared in complete disbelief.
Injured - y-you...
Blue extended his hand.
Blue - hey.
Let's get up, bro.
The man grabbed his hand.
Injured - thank you...
Who are you?
Blue smiled slightly.
Blue - me?
I am the son of God Xylon...
and Demon Revan.
I am Manvatara Kars Blue.
But you can call me Blue.
The man's eyes widened.
Injured - M-My Lord?!
ヽ༼⁰o⁰;༽ノ
My Lord himself came from the God-Demon World to save me?!
Blue - hey hey...
Relax.
Anyway...
what species are you?
Blue narrowed his eyes slightly.
Blue (Mind) - hmm...
Something feels strange about this guy.
Injured - my name is Laka.
I belong to the Geon race.
Blue - ohhh...
Laka.
Then tell me.
Why are they attacking your planet?
Laka scratched his head.
Laka - I don't know.
¯_༼ᴼل͜ᴼ༽_/¯
Blue - (-_-)
Of course you don't.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Suddenly—
SMMMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNNN!!!
A red beam pierced through the battlefield.
Laka's eyes widened.
Laka - hhh...
my...
lo...
rd...
Blue froze.
The beam had passed directly through Laka's chest.
Blue - what?!
Laka collapsed.
THUD.
Blue immediately caught him.
Blue - hey!
Laka!
No!
Laka!!
Stay with me!
Laka's body slowly went limp.
Silence.
Blue's expression darkened.
Very slowly...
he stood up.
Then looked toward the sky.
Nothing.
No enemy.
No weapon.
No presence.
Only silence.
Blue clenched his fist.
Blue - hhhhh...
If you have the guts...
come out.
And fight me from the front.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Meanwhile...
High above Planet G742...
Nova's target had finally come into view.
A gigantic warship floated among the clouds.
Its size alone dwarfed entire cities.
Weapons covered every side of the vessel.
Nova narrowed her eyes.
Nova - so this is your headquarters...
Without wasting another second—
SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
She accelerated forward.
Like a silver comet.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
A few moments later...
Nova landed silently on the outer hull.
THUD.
Nova - alright...
Let's see what you're hiding.
Using the shadows as cover...
she slipped inside.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Inside The Warship
The interior looked more like a military fortress than a spaceship.
Alien weapons lined the walls.
Advanced technology from dozens of different worlds filled the corridors.
Nova slowly examined everything.
Nova - there are weapons here from several planets...
Special military equipment too...
It seems these people didn't just attack worlds...
They conquered them.
Her expression darkened.
Nova - monsters...
Suddenly—
Voices echoed from a nearby chamber.
Nova immediately stopped moving.
Then quietly approached.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Inside The Command Room
Several soldiers stood before a large figure.
Soldier - my lord...
We have successfully captured all females from this planet.
The figure remained seated.
Lord - well done...
soldiers...
Soldier - our mission is complete.
A cold smile appeared beneath the lord's mask.
Lord - good.
Then destroy this planet.
The room instantly fell silent.
Outside the chamber—
Nova's eyes widened.
Nova - (╬⁽⁽ ° Д ° ⁾⁾)
No...
No no no...
Her fists clenched.
Anger surged through her body.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Inside The Room
The lord slowly stood.
Lord - now...
the time has come.
Launch it.
Soldiers - yes, my lord.
A massive weapon began charging.
SMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...
Energy flooded through the chamber.
The entire ship trembled.
Outside—
Nova's eyes widened.
Nova - wait...
A planetary weapon?!
Lord - begin the launch sequence.
Nova - NEVER!!
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
BOOOOOM!!!
The chamber doors exploded inward.
Every soldier turned instantly.
Soldiers - HUH?!
Nova stepped through the smoke.
Apex Gauntlet glowing brightly.
Nova - nobody is launching anything today.
Soldier - intruder!!
Lord - ...
Soldier...
Catch her.
One man standing beside the lord smirked.
Unknown Guy - my lord.
ᕙ (° /͜ʖ/ °) ᕗ
Perhaps we should leave now.
The lord nodded.
Lord - hmm...
Let's go.
The Unknown Guy smiled.
Unknown Guy - as you wish.
A smaller personal spacecraft emerged from the rear of the room.
Without hesitation—
Both figures entered.
SSSSSHHHHHHHHH!!!
The ship launched away.
Nova - wait!!
Damn it!!
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The remaining soldiers attacked immediately.
Soldiers - KILL HER!!
Nova sighed.
Nova - troublesome...
The Apex Gauntlet illuminated.
⚡
⚡⚡
⚡⚡⚡
Nova - Platinum Apex...
Level 4.
The entire chamber exploded with electricity.
KRRRAAAAAKKKKK!!!!
Blinding platinum lightning erupted in every direction.
Soldiers - AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!
Thousands of volts surged through their bodies.
One by one—
they collapsed.
Some were thrown across walls.
Others crashed into equipment.
The entire room became a storm of electricity.
Nova stood calmly at the center.
Like the eye of a hurricane.
Soldiers - AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!
BOOOOM!!
DMMMM!!
CRASH!!
Within seconds...
the room was cleared.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nova took a breath.
Nova - huh...
Now where is that weapon—
BOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!
A sudden explosion erupted nearby.
Nova - what?!
A violent shockwave threw her backward.
THUD!!
Nova crashed against the floor.
Nova - auch...
Pieces of the damaged ceiling collapsed.
One massive metal door broke loose.
CRAAASSSHHHH!!!
Nova - huh?!
BOOOM!!
The door slammed directly onto her.
Nova - AHH!!
For several moments...
she couldn't move.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Then—
Her eyes widened.
Nova - wait...
That beam...
SMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...
A terrifying amount of energy was gathering outside.
Nova immediately looked through the damaged wall.
What she saw froze her completely.
A colossal weapon had already activated.
Nova - no...
The launch wasn't stopped...
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Far Below...
Blue stood silently among the battlefield ruins.
Then—
A strange sound echoed across the sky.
SMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM...
Blue slowly looked upward.
Blue - huh...?
The clouds suddenly split apart.
A massive beam of energy descended from orbit.
Its size covered the horizon itself.
Blue's eyes widened.
Blue - what the...
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Inside The Warship
Nova struggled beneath the wreckage.
Nova - no...
No no no...
BLUE!!
The beam fired.
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
A pillar of light descended from the heavens.
Then—
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!
The entire planet shook.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The beam descended from the heavens.
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
A pillar of destruction capable of erasing an entire civilization.
Everything below was swallowed by light.
The ground shattered.
Mountains collapsed.
Cities disappeared beneath the explosion.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Inside The Warship
Nova stared helplessly through the damaged wall.
Her eyes widened in horror.
Nova - no...
Blue...
For a brief moment...
she couldn't breathe.
The explosion continued expanding across the horizon.
Everything vanished beneath the light.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Far Below...
The battlefield had disappeared.
Only smoke remained.
Only destruction remained.
The world had become silent.
Nova slowly lowered her head.
Nova - Blue...
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Then—
A strange energy fluctuation appeared inside the smoke.
Smmmmmmmm...
Nova froze.
Nova - huh...?
The smoke slowly began separating.
As if something was pushing it away.
Then—
A figure appeared.
Floating.
Completely unharmed.
Nova's eyes widened.
Nova - Blue...?
Blue hovered silently in the air.
His clothes were damaged.
His body carried several burn marks.
But he was alive.
Blue slowly opened his eyes.
Blue - huh...
That actually hurt.
Nova - ...
Blue - a little.
Nova immediately fell to her knees in relief.
Nova - idiot...
Blue looked upward.
His expression became serious.
Blue - whoever launched that...
is not ordinary.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Meanwhile...
Far Away In Space
A small spacecraft continued moving away from G742.
Inside...
The mysterious lord sat silently.
Unknown Guy laughed.
Unknown Guy - hahaha...
My lord.
Your work is done.
The entire planet should be finished by now.
The lord remained calm.
Unknown Guy continued smiling.
Unknown Guy - soon...
the universe will witness your true power.
Slowly—
he reached toward his face.
Then removed his mask.
The man's identity was finally revealed.
Guy - the true power of my Lord...
Granolah.
A cold smile appeared on the lord's face.
Granolah - hm...
The Unknown Guy bowed respectfully.
Guy - soon...
every world will know your name.
Granolah slowly looked outside the spacecraft window.
His eyes were filled with absolute confidence.
Granolah - hahaha...
Soon...
very soon...
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
At The Same Time...
Planet G742
Blue continued staring toward the distant horizon.
Something felt wrong.
Very wrong.
As if he had just encountered the beginning of something far larger.
Nova finally approached him.
Nova - Blue...
Are you okay?
Blue looked toward her.
Blue - yeah.
But whoever that was...
We'll meet again.
Nova followed his gaze toward space.
Neither of them knew it yet.
But the name "Granolah" would soon become one of the greatest threats they would ever face.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Backstory Off...
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nippon Tokotoko
The room was completely silent.
Only Blue's voice remained.
After finishing the story...
he slowly lowered his head.
For several seconds...
nobody spoke.
Minaki simply stared at him.
Her eyes had become watery.
Everything she had just heard...
The battles.
The destruction.
The sacrifice.
The loneliness Blue had carried for years.
It all finally made sense.
Blue forced a small smile.
Blue - so...
This was the story of my past.
Minaki's lips trembled.
Minaki - (༎ຶ ෴ ༎ຶ)
Blue...
you...
Blue looked away.
Blue - yeah...
A heavy silence filled the room.
Neither of them knew what to say.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Finally...
Blue slowly pushed himself up from the glass bed.
Minaki immediately panicked.
Minaki - wait!!
What are you doing?!
Blue staggered slightly.
His body still hadn't fully recovered.
Minaki quickly grabbed his arm.
Minaki - Blue!
You're not healed yet!
You shouldn't even be standing!
Blue smiled weakly.
Blue - maybe...
But I can't stay here anymore.
Minaki - huh...?
Blue slowly turned toward the window.
Far away...
the dark clouds above Tokyo continued growing.
The atmosphere itself felt unstable.
Blue could feel it.
The battle.
The chaos.
The danger.
Blue - Nova needs me.
Minaki lowered her head.
She knew he was right.
But that didn't stop her from worrying.
Minaki - (༎ຶ ෴ ༎ຶ)
You always do this...
Blue blinked.
Blue - huh?
Minaki - every time...
you go somewhere dangerous.
Every time...
you act like everything is fine.
Every time...
you come back injured.
Blue scratched his cheek awkwardly.
Blue - well...
when you say it like that...
it sounds pretty bad.
Minaki - because it IS bad!
Blue - ⊙﹏⊙
Fair point.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
For a moment...
Neither of them spoke.
The room became quiet again.
Then Minaki suddenly stepped forward.
Minaki - promise me something.
Blue - hmm?
Minaki looked directly into his eyes.
Minaki - come back alive.
Blue froze.
For the first time...
he didn't have a joke ready.
He didn't have a clever response.
Only silence.
Then—
A small smile appeared on his face.
Blue - yeah.
I'll try.
Minaki - not "try."
COME BACK.
Blue chuckled softly.
Blue - alright.
I'll come back.
Minaki finally released his arm.
Blue slowly walked toward the exit.
Step.
Step.
Step.
Then he stopped.
Without turning around—
Blue - Minaki.
Minaki - hmm?
Blue smiled.
Blue - take care of yourself.
Minaki lowered her head.
Minaki - yeah...
You too.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Blue continued walking.
Toward the door.
Toward the battlefield.
Toward the war waiting outside.
The moment his hand touched the handle—
A powerful energy pulse erupted from his body.
⚡
The room trembled.
The air distorted.
Blue's eyes narrowed.
Blue - huh...
Looks like my energy has finally stabilized.
Minaki stepped back slightly.
Blue's aura had become noticeably stronger.
Much stronger.
Blue slowly opened the door.
Outside...
Tokyo was already descending into chaos.
And somewhere within that chaos...
his friends were still fighting.
Waiting.
Holding the line.
Blue smiled.
Blue - hang on, guys...
I'm coming.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Now, Tokyo...
The battlefield had become complete chaos.
Explosions echoed across the city.
Blue plasma.
Golden detonations.
Silver storms.
Toxic clouds.
The remains of shattered buildings littered the streets while endless waves of Reptilians and Cygons continued pouring from every direction.
Nova and her team stood their ground.
But something felt wrong.
Very wrong.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nova - Everyone stay alert!
TDMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!
The ground suddenly shook.
A deep vibration spread through the battlefield.
Io - (☉｡☉)!
Nebula - ...
Nairo narrowed his eyes.
Nairo - ತ_ತ
Trillium swallowed nervously.
Trillium - guys...
I don't like this...
The vibration intensified.
TDMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!
CRAAAAACK!!!
The ground split apart.
A massive fissure tore through the battlefield.
Reptilians immediately stopped fighting.
Cygons stopped moving.
The entire battlefield fell silent.
Nova's eyes narrowed.
Nova - what...?
Then—
Something began rising from beneath the earth.
Slowly.
Calmly.
Like a king ascending to his throne.
TDMMMMMMMM...
TDMMMMMMMM...
TDMMMMMMMM...
A gigantic figure emerged from the darkness below.
His entire body remained concealed beneath heavy black cloth.
Nobody could see his face.
Nobody could see his expression.
Yet...
The moment he appeared...
The atmosphere changed.
The pressure alone was overwhelming.
Even the air itself felt heavier.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Reptilians - ＼(◎o◎)／
SUPREME LORD!!
Cygons - (☉｡☉)!
SUPREME LORD!!
SUPREME LORD!!
SUPREME LORD!!
The chants exploded across the battlefield.
Thousands of voices.
One name.
One title.
SUPREME LORD!!
SUPREME LORD!!
SUPREME LORD!!
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Trillium - (ꏿ﹏ꏿ;)
We are cooked...
Nebula immediately smacked him.
Nebula - shut up, Trillium.
Trillium - AUCH!!
Io stared at the mysterious figure.
Io - who is this...?
Nairo's grip tightened around his bow.
Nairo - whoever he is...
he's dangerous.
Very dangerous.
Nova remained silent.
Something about this presence felt strangely familiar.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The chants continued.
Louder.
Louder.
LOUDER.
SUPREME LORD!!
SUPREME LORD!!
SUPREME LORD!!
Then—
The figure raised one hand.
Instantly...
Silence.
Absolute silence.
Thousands of soldiers became quiet.
Nobody dared speak.
Nobody dared move.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
At the same moment...
Far away...
Inside Nippon Tokotoko...
Blue stood before a swirling dimensional rift.
The battlefield energy was calling him.
His friends were waiting.
Blue slowly gripped his sword.
Blue - hmmm...
Looks like it's finally time.
Minaki stood behind him.
Her hands clenched tightly.
Blue slightly turned his head.
Blue - take care, Minaki.
Minaki forced a small smile.
Minaki - yeah...
You too.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Tokyo Battlefield
The mysterious figure slowly grabbed the cloth covering his body.
Nova's eyes widened.
Nova - wait...
No way...
The figure spoke.
Unknown - now...
The time has come.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nippon Tokotoko
Blue slowly drew his katana.
The blade glowed with immense plasma energy.
Blue's eyes became serious.
Blue -
Plasma Core...
Dimension Cutter.
⚡
The air split apart.
A glowing dimensional fracture appeared before him.
Reality itself seemed to tear open.
SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHMMMMMMM!!!
The dimensional gate expanded rapidly.
Blue stepped toward it.
Then stopped.
One final glance.
One final smile.
Blue - see you soon.
Minaki nodded.
Blue disappeared into the dimensional rift.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Tokyo Battlefield
The figure pulled away the cloth.
Nova's pupils contracted instantly.
Nova - WAIT...
YOU'RE—
The figure slowly raised his head.
A cold smile appeared on his face.
Unknown -
I...
am...
SUPREME LORD GRANOLAH.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
At that exact moment—
Inside the dimensional corridor...
Blue's eyes widened.
Blue - hm?
A familiar presence.
A familiar energy.
A familiar nightmare.
For the first time in years...
Blue felt genuine surprise.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Tokyo
Granolah slowly opened his arms.
The sky darkened.
The Mega Beam Pillar roared behind him.
Lightning flashed across the heavens.
The battlefield trembled.
And the war...
was about to enter a completely new stage.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
☠️ THE SUPREME LORD HAS AWAKENED ☠️
⚡ BLUE HAS RETURNED TO THE BATTLEFIELD ⚡
🔥 THE WAR FOR TOKYO HAS ONLY JUST BEGUN 🔥
