Time stop—

Kenji gave his new power a small test. He was finally no longer a three-second man. With the Power of Ohma, the duration of his time-stop had been extended significantly. Kenji also briefly tried out its other abilities, such as accelerating time to make an apple rot, then rewinding it back to its original state.

Sunlight, the ocean, the beach, a Jeep—

"Daigo, stop running away! Run towards the car!"

"I don't understand, Mr. Kenji! This is too dangerous!"

Kenji was the one driving. The person fleeing in terror in front of the car was Daigo.

Shinjo and Rena watched this scene, dumbfounded. Was this really a proper training exercise?

Kenji's inner thoughts: Absolutely proper. This is the spirit of Ultra, the legacy of the Warriors of Light. Personally tested by the Showa-era King of Combat, Leo. All who have tried it say it's great.

Time rewinds to two and a half hours ago.

Kenji had come to the world of Tiga to help train Daigo. On the spot, he had requested a Jeep with faulty brakes. The honest Daigo didn't think too much of it and immediately found one. Coincidentally, this Jeep looked remarkably similar to the one from the Alien Guts episode. Most importantly, there was even an Alien Guts-style cane inside the car. This was just too true to life.

The training ground was a deserted beach by the sea. However, unlike Gen Ohtori's experience, this time Daigo had two spectators.

The moment the Jeep started moving, Daigo realized something was wrong.

The Jeep is chasing me. And it's a Jeep with bad brakes.

He could feel his great-grandma waving at him.

"Shinjo, is this coach Daigo found really reliable?" Rena asked worriedly. She had helped Daigo find this Jeep, so she knew its brakes were bad, but she hadn't known beforehand that this was how the training would be conducted.

"This is probably to train Daigo's courage, right?" Shinjo said, though he wasn't sure either. In the face of danger, Daigo's potential could be stimulated. However, no matter how you looked at it, this didn't seem like a proper training method. As a human, he couldn't comprehend it.

Gen Ohtori's inner thought: I don't understand it either.

"Daigo! Run towards the car!" Kenji shouted, really getting into the spirit of things. He swung the cane in his hand at Daigo, but not as forcefully as Alien Guts had. It was merely a symbolic tap.

[Crash-Test Pilot]: @Miss Pink Elf♪ Elysia, help me! Your boyfriend has gone crazy!

As Daigo scrambled to escape, he pleaded for help from the group members. This guy was trying to kill him! Daigo's current expression was a grimace, a perfect match for Gen Ohtori's own. The beach was too large, with no cover. He could run towards the sea, but Kenji's driving skills were too good; he always managed to cut him off.

[Miss Pink Elf♪]: My dear Kenji, what are you doing ♪?

Elysia was very curious about what Kenji was doing to make Daigo cry for help.

[Star Forger has started a live stream]

The image of Kenji driving a Jeep while Daigo fled in terror appeared before the eyes of the group members.

[Miss Pink Elf♪]: ???

[Lady Justice]: ???

[The Champion]: ???

[The Destroyer]: ???

[Gudako]: ???

...

Elysia and the others simultaneously flooded the chat with question marks. They did not understand.

[Miss Pink Elf♪]: Kenji, when did you and Daigo become enemies?

It wasn't surprising she would ask this. After all, this wasn't something a normal person would do, and Daigo's terror did not look like an act.

[Star Forger]: This is the legacy of the Warriors of Light.

[Earth Wrecker]: So Ultramen have this kind of legacy? You learn something new every day.

[Lifts-Bemstar-With-One-Hand]: Of course not! What kind of bizarre legacy is this?!

Hikari was cursing internally. This was too bizarre. If the Warriors of Light passed down something like this, would that be the Land of Light or the Land of Hell?

[Star Forger]: How is it not? I have proof.

[Star Forger]: [AlienGutsAndTheJeepMonster.mp4]

[Star Forger]: [LeoKickSpecialTrainingForZero.mp4]

[Lifts-Bemstar-With-One-Hand]: ...

Hikari was dumbfounded. This was something he had never heard of. After all, it wasn't the kind of dark history Leo would go around bragging about. Using the famous Leo Kick on Seven's son... was this really not some form of revenge?

[Stank]: This legacy really is bizarre.

Gen Ohtori's expression in the clip didn't look like he was acting.

[Gudako]: Pfft! Kenji, you really know how to apply what you've learned. You used it directly on Daigo.

Ritsuka Fujimaru's eyes darted about. She took out a small notebook and started writing. This might be useful later.

[Star Forger]: @Earth Wrecker Gamu, want to join in?

[Earth Wrecker]: Ahem, no thanks. I'll pass.

Gamu shuddered. Training with something like this... he'd rather go lift weights with the guys from Team Hercules.

[Crash-Test Pilot]: THE BRAKES ON THIS JEEP DON'T WORK!!!

[Lady Justice]: A moment of silence for Daigo.

So, the Jeep was basically unstoppable. No wonder Daigo looked so horrified.

[The Champion]: Hiss... This kind of training... it should be able to train one's ability to withstand blows. I'll have my Garchomp try it some day.

Of course, she would never actually hurt her Garchomp. Cynthia couldn't bear to see her Pokémon get injured.

Garchomp: I feel a little nervous, but I don't know why.

Cynthia's other Pokémon: Same here.

[Martial Arts Maniac Fox]: Jeep training?

Hoshimi Miyabi stroked her chin. The lazy Yuzhen would probably want to try this method of getting stronger.

Yuzhen's inner thought: No, I do not.

[Galactic Baseballer]: The Astral Express is also a vehicle. Anyone want to try?

[Dian Mei Ruan]: I've heard that the Astral Express can even break through the walls of a Preservation Aeon.

She didn't know if it was just a historical myth, but she had heard it. It was said to have happened back when Akivili was still alive.

[Star Forger]: Don't worry, Daigo! I can guarantee you'll be fine afterward!

I have many ways to heal you.

[Crash-Test Pilot]: Kenji, stop chatting and pay attention! I don't want to get hit!

Daigo was speechless. Watching the Jeep get closer and closer, he picked up his speed again. If Rena and the others hadn't come to watch, he would have used his Ultra Psychokinesis to escape this "training" long ago.

"Stop whining! Run towards the car!" Kenji was fully in character now. He was the second-generation Alien Guts.

"Gasp! No way! I'm not Superman!" Daigo shook his head vigorously. Getting hit by that would be an incredibly painful experience.

"Officer Rena, I heard that Mr. Kenji was going to train Daigo. How is the training going?"

A call came in from Captain Iruma, asking Rena for an update. Because of the monster intel Kenji had provided, they were able to deploy their forces accordingly. Although they couldn't destroy the monsters like Tiga, they weren't just standing by and watching either.

"Uh... Captain, maybe you should see for yourself?"

Rena hesitated for a moment, then turned on her video feed. The image of Daigo being chased by a Jeep appeared at headquarters.

Captain Iruma and the others blinked, their faces covered in question marks. Was this really training? If so, it seemed a bit too extreme. Didn't Kenji know that Daigo was good friends with Director Sawai?

"From the looks of it, Daigo is in no danger," Shinjo said, holding back a laugh. He had never seen Daigo in such a sorry state, and he was sure Kenji knew what he was doing.

Captain Iruma and the others rubbed their foreheads and ended the call. Forget it. Let them do what they want.
