Chapter 606: Zero's Persistence and His Ultra Spirit (End)

Once upon a time, Zero felt that the most painful thing he could feel in this universe was seeing the casualty reports and various alarms sent to him every day.
However, after spending a few days with Castor, Zero discovered that his judgment was greatly wrong.

The death of those ordinary life forms certainly made him feel painful, but what was even more painful was that the universe seemed to be getting better little by little under Castor's continuous "operation".

"Uncle Castor, I think we should take a good rest today." Sero stopped Castor who was about to go out.
There was a hint of panic in his tone, and he didn't understand why Castor, who had only been in this universe for a few days, could make him so nervous.

"Look at you, you're nervous again." Castor smiled and patted Zero's shoulder. "I've told you several times that if you think there's something wrong with the terms of cooperation between me and other people, you can tell me. I'm not the kind of person who can't accept criticism. I can change some more suitable treaties according to your requirements."

Castor looked at Zero gently, but Zero shook his head, "No, I don't have this ability, but I can feel that what you are doing now is too dangerous for the universe."

"You've only been here for a few days, and I can't even tell who is the Revolutionary Army, who is the Interstellar Alliance, who is the enemy, and who is the friend."

"Everyone seemed to become our friend all of a sudden, but at the same time, they also became our enemy."

Castor thought about it, then nodded, "What you said seems to make sense. It seems to be true. The Interstellar Alliance and Belia, even Tartarus and his men have become our partners. This is indeed a bit too much."

Zero nodded vigorously. He felt that the other party seemed to finally understand what he meant, but the next second, he became flustered again because he saw Castor began to flip through the star map of the universe.

"Wait!? I don't mean for you to find an enemy. We can't deliberately set up an enemy when there is no enemy. This goes against the spirit of the Kingdom of Light." Zero shouted excitedly.

"Oh, that makes sense. A tough setting isn't really that good." Castor thought about it, then began to mutter something.

After listening for a while, Zero shouted again, "No! You can't bring enemies from other universes into this universe, nor can you let the people of this universe go to war with the people of other universes. The Dark Ruler is a monster that TPC should deal with and should not be sent here."

"Castor!! You can't revive a dead enemy!!! Letting the Emperor play a guest villain? This doesn't make sense!!! We are Ultra Warriors!!"

"Tregear?? If you really let Tregear come to this universe, I swear, I will stop him in advance even if it means violating the rules of time!!"

Zero didn't understand whether there was something wrong with his description or there was something wrong with Casto's understanding ability.
He did feel that the universe had become somewhat chaotic because of Castor's appearance. Everyone was connected together because of Castor. It seemed that a huge circle of cooperation had emerged with Castor as the radius, regardless of friend or foe.

What Zero wanted to say just now was that this situation made him feel abnormal, but Castor didn't seem to understand it that way.

Castor seemed to simply take his words as a "reminder", and then came up with a very simple answer.

Since there are no enemies in this universe, wouldn't it be better to create some?

The Kingdom of Light lacks everything, but it has never lacked enemies.

In just over an hour, Cero understood from Castor what it meant to be "adaptable".

Castor would present a new enemy every few minutes, and each of these enemies would make him feel like his brain was shutting down.
From the Dark Ruler to the Sophia Matrix, from the Emperor's Empera Empire to the Gu'a Legion
Every time Zero vetoed, Castor seemed to accept it obediently, but after a few minutes, he would propose a new "public enemy of the universe".

Logically speaking, this behavior is very contrary to the Ultra Spirit of the Land of Light. However, whenever Zero tried to argue with Castor from this perspective, Castor could always find one set of logic after another.

"Cero, you should take a long-term view, isn't that a good thing?"

'The people of this universe are forever united because of external threats. The Kingdom of Light can always get opportunities to cooperate in this universe because of such threats. People in other universes can also eliminate those difficult monsters with the help of this universe. What a win-win situation! What a win-win situation!'

"Also, don't forget that there is the Warrior Peak in this universe. Although he refused to talk to me last time, if there is a threat from other universes, he might cooperate with our Kingdom of Light. Isn't this a win-win situation?"

'To be honest, the way Ultra Warriors are trained at Warrior Summit is really outdated. It's a training model that's like a master-apprentice relationship, or a sect, but more like a black-hearted factory. No matter how you look at it, it should be changed.

If we can seize this opportunity and let him and our Kingdom of Light jointly train Ultra Warriors, then relying on the huge personnel base of the Kingdom of Light, as well as the mysterious mission system and magical props of the Warrior Summit, more outstanding warriors will surely be born.'

Yes, Castor had even set his sights on the Warrior Summit. On the second day after Castor came to this universe, Zero watched Castor break through the blockade of the Interstellar Alliance and come to the Warrior Summit of O50. Although, because of Belia, no one actually blocked them.

In fact, Warrior Peak did not refuse to have a dialogue with Castor at the beginning. At first, when he saw the Light of Noah from the parallel universe, Warrior Peak seemed to be a little curious. At least, judging from the flashing light on the arc, he wanted to say something.

However, as Castor described the future cooperation bit by bit, Zero swore that he watched with his own eyes as the ring on the top of the warrior's peak simply glowed, expressing an attitude called "rejection".

Of course, Zero could understand it. After all, Castor's idea of ​​moving the Warrior's Peak and the entire O50 away was a bit too much.

Even Castor, who was the best at "cooperating" with others that Zero had ever seen in his life, could not make the other party agree with just one negotiation.

After that, Castor did not give up. These days, whenever he had free time, he would run to the Warrior's Summit, and Zero had to follow him to the Warrior's Summit to keep an eye on Castor to prevent this guy from doing anything desperate.

All in all, these days, Castro seemed to have done nothing but meet with different people every day. However, he seemed to have done a lot of things, because he seemed to have unconsciously connected all kinds of people together with one big pancake after another.

Zero has also understood in the past few days that Castor's method is very simple. In short, it is to use a better future to make others sacrifice some of their current interests.
In theory, this is a difficult behavior to succeed, because it is impossible for everyone to be an idiot and be deceived so easily.
However, when Castor relied on the Kingdom of Light behind him to pull more and more people to his side, all this could not be stopped.

Everyone would think that since even that guy has cooperated with them, then it would not be a big deal for them to cooperate with him.

Zero watched helplessly as everyone, including the Silver Crusaders and Zoffy, unknowingly reached a cooperation with Castor.
Even though Zoffy and the Silver Crusaders had a vague feeling that something was wrong, they still chose to cooperate with Castor for the sake of the peace of the universe.
Because, cooperating with Castor can allow Zoffy and his soldiers to directly know the intelligence from Belia, so that they can experience less war.
Because, by cooperating with Castor, the Silver Crusaders can conduct medical research more purely, which can reduce the number of people dying from injuries and illnesses in this universe.
Zero didn't know if he was the only one who felt that Castor was dangerous. He thought it might be because he and Castor spent the most time together, or it might be because Castor appeared in this universe because of him. He felt that he was responsible for this universe.
In short, it seems that he is the only one left in the entire universe, and the top warrior who seems to be controlled by some kind of mechanical "AI", and is resisting Castor's application for cooperation.

Unconsciously, Zero understood another thing, which was why Casto had disdained his previous thoughts.

He once thought that if he wanted to unite everyone, he had to understand everyone's thoughts, which naturally included those of ordinary civilizations.

But Castor is different. He doesn't care about these things at all. He has only one way to unite everyone, that is to offer a cooperation condition that the other party cannot refuse. Zero is instinctively alert to all this, but at this moment he can't do anything. He said to Castor who was excited to contact the Ultimate Zero Guard, "Castor, you know what I'm afraid of, even if I don't know what I'm afraid of, but if it were you, you would definitely know."

Castor looked at Zero who was staring at him, still with a smile on his face, "Of course, if you really want to know that much, I will tell you directly."

"Your subconscious mind is afraid. You are afraid of something that you may not understand for a while. This is not a certain thing, but a crisis entangled with many terrible things."

"For example, your subconscious mind is worried that the fruits of the revolutionary army's efforts and sacrifices in this universe will be taken away by someone without their knowledge because of my existence."

"For example, your subconscious mind is worried that my unscrupulous behavior will cause the moral level of the entire universe to plummet."

"For example, your subconscious mind is worried that the Country of Light will slowly deteriorate because of my actions."

“For example, your subconscious mind”

"You know, what I did did make the universe more stable and promoted its development, but you discovered that such development and stability seemed to come at a price. You realized that perhaps stability and peace were not the real end point. There should be something beyond that."

Zero looked at Castor. Although Castor had made it very clear, he had absorbed too much in this period of time, and his worldview had been shattered countless times. Therefore, he could not logically judge whether this passage was right or wrong, and whether Castor had left any traps in this passage.
However, his eyes were very sharp at this moment, and his eyes seemed to have returned to his youth, the ferocious state when he faced Belia.

"In fact, if it were you, Mr. Castor, if you were willing to stand on my previous theory, understand all ordinary civilizations, and then treat them with a more 'sincere' attitude, you could also stabilize the universe step by step, right?"

Cero looked at Castor, who shook his head.

"If your ultimate goal is just stability and peace, then what I do is the fastest way. Once you learn it, there will only be two civilizations left in this universe. One should be destroyed by our Kingdom of Light, and the other should cooperate with us."

Cero remained silent and said nothing.

"Be thankful, this is all because of the power of the Land of Light." For the first time, Castor restrained his smile. "The Land of Light is powerful, you are powerful, and the Ultra Brothers are all powerful.
Because we are strong, we are the partner that others want. We only need to give up some of the bottom line of the Kingdom of Light to make them willingly cooperate with us, even if it is Belia or Tartarus. "

"I will never abandon my bottom line!" Zero shouted loudly, but only received a faint mockery from Castor.
"Really? I have been in this universe for so many days. So far, everything I have done has been under your watch. But from beginning to end, you have never stopped me."

"Admit it, Zero. You only talk big. In fact, when you choose to do nothing, you have already reached a cooperation with me. However, you feel at ease to put all the blame on me.
All you have to do is watch me do all this, and then, in your heart and in your mouth, keep condemning me, that's all."

"You're actually pretty good. Your experiences over the past month have allowed you to feel something different. This is even beyond my expectations. I thought you would be like everyone else, completely oblivious to the possible consequences of my actions."

"But, that's all." Castor spread his hands. "In order to unite everyone, I intentionally or unintentionally whitewashed some people, and even 'tampered' with part of the truth. However, you witnessed all this, but did not stop me."

"Back then, you violated the laws of the Kingdom of Light and attempted to touch the Plasma Spark Tower for the sake of what you desired most in your heart.
Now you, for the thing you desire most in your heart, violate the spirit of the Kingdom of Light and quietly watch me do all this."

"You are afraid, but you are also looking forward to it. You know that everything I do may have problems, but you have hope. I can really help you realize your dream of making the universe a better place."

"Now, I did it, didn't I?" Castor shrugged. "As long as you pretend you know nothing, this universe will stabilize soon. To be honest, this is indeed the roughest one I have ever done, but fortunately, there is only one interstellar alliance in this universe that needs to be dealt with."

"Now that the revolution has been won and the Interstellar Alliance has been eliminated, the people of the Kingdom of Light can even station troops here in the name of medical treatment or something else.

In fact, everything is not as terrible as you imagined. I was the one who brought about the cooperation, but you didn’t agree to it, right?

You just need to keep an eye on this universe, and after I leave, you can remove the hidden dangers I leave behind bit by bit without anyone noticing, and then you can make this universe enter true peace and stability, isn't that good?"

Castor opened his arms righteously and said to Ultraman Zero excitedly, "Look, I will be the bad guy, and you, the most powerful Ultraman Zero in the Land of Light! You just need to be yourself!! You will be the final hero, and as a hero, you can help the Land of Light realize its ideals and establish the first truly peaceful universe in the history of the Land of Light."

Cero looked at Castor. He didn't know if the other party was making false promises to him again. To be honest, he was very tempted.

Just as the other party said, he already understood all of this. Then, he could just wait for his distant uncle to leave, and then slowly change everything. This would be much easier than starting from scratch and making the universe move towards the ideal of the Kingdom of Light.
You know, what Castor left behind would be an extremely stable universe, at least in the short term.

All he had to do was to eliminate some of the hidden dangers, which was obviously much simpler than the imperial war with Belia.

However, Zero shook his head and said, "I don't want to. Although what you said sounds good, I don't want to."

Peace, stability, everyone cooperates together. There is no war and death. No matter good or bad, they all choose a more "peaceful" way to compete because of Castor's existence. It seems that no one should reject all this.
However, this proud warrior named Zero shook his head at Castor stubbornly, just like he did many years ago when he tried to approach the Plasma Spark Tower:
"Uncle Castor, everything you have done is beyond my imagination. Perhaps this is the only feasible way to bring peace to the universe, but I don't want to."

Castor smiled, stepped forward and patted Zero on the shoulder, "Don't think too much, this is not a bad thing, Zero, you only need a template, and then you will be able to continue to make one universe after another move towards peace."

"Believe me, this is not as difficult as you think."

But at this moment, he suddenly felt a strong energy bursting out from Zero's body.
"What are you doing!? Zero!! You're draining your life force, do you know that!?!"

Zero's eyes began to flash with images one after another. His tone was somewhat painful, and he couldn't even speak clearly, but he still gritted his teeth and growled to Casto, "I can't deny what you have brought about. But I know this is wrong."

"I don't have your great talent to unite everyone around you."

A golden light was blooming on Zero's body, and with this light, a distorted space appeared. Facing Castor's gaze, Zero said, "It's because of me that you came here."

"Then, let's go back to before you and I met."
