Chapter 710 True Courage

"Doctor!" Miyata quickly got up, ran to Kisaragi Rui, helped her up from the ground, and called out.

"Cough cough!" Ruyue Lei coughed a few times and gradually woke up.

"Chief of Staff Miyata, could you please take Dr. Kisaragi to the medical department?" Shen Yun said.

"Yes, Director." Chief of Staff Miyata nodded, picked up Rui Kisaragi, and left the conference room.

"Chief of Staff, what should we do?" Chief of Staff Shiina asked.

"Immediately evacuate ordinary citizens from the coastal area centered on K3," Shen Yun ordered.

"understand!"

At this moment, the TPC, which had taken over the functions of the government, was also in full operation. A large number of transport vehicles and transport planes carrying various supplies and daily necessities set off from all over Japan and headed towards the K3 region.

Upon arriving in the K3 area, police officers responsible for evacuating the public and maintaining order immediately dispersed and began to evacuate the local residents in an orderly manner.

On the rooftop of the TPC complex.

The bird, looking gloomy, leaned against the railing, gazing at the distant city.

"You look so gloomy, that's not like you at all," Shen Yun said as he walked over and put his hand on Fei Niao's shoulder.

"Director, am I not suitable to be Dyna?" Asuka asked, pulling out her Flash Sword from her pocket.

"Why do you say that?"

"When I faced Trafiz's Neomagus Cannon, I was actually afraid. I actually thought about running away. Even Mai was braver than me," Asuka said self-deprecatingly.

"Idiot! What do you think you are? A god? You're a human being, an arrogant, lazy, impulsive, reckless, unreliable, and immature person with many flaws." Shen Yun slapped Feibiao on the back of the head and said.

"Director, how can you insult me ​​like that?" Feibiao rubbed the back of her head and looked at Shen Yun with a resentful expression.

"What? Am I wrong? Do you want me to help you recall all the stupid things you've done?" Shen Yun asked.

"Well, that won't be necessary," Asuka said with an awkward smile.

"At least you have some self-awareness," Shen Yun said with a smile.

"Director, are you here to comfort me or to belittle me?" Asuka said resentfully.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic. Asuka, although you have the ability to transform, you are still just a human being. Anyone facing the threat of death will feel fear, be afraid, and want to run away. It's a biological instinct; no one is an exception. You don't need to feel ashamed of it." Shen Yun patted Asuka's shoulder, leaned against the rooftop railing, and said:

"But humans possess a power that other creatures lack. That is—"

As he spoke, Shen Yun raised his hand and tapped the bird's heart, saying:

"courage!"

"True courage is never about being fearless, but about choosing to throw a punch even when you're afraid."

"I think Mai must have been very scared at that time, but she didn't run away. No matter how scared she was, she still chose to fight."

"To do something knowing it's impossible, that's just human nature."

"Feiniao, go check out the K3 area. See those police officers who chose to fight to the end. Maybe they can show you what courage is." Shen Yun patted Feibiao on the shoulder and turned to leave the rooftop.

"K3 region?" A hint of confusion flashed in Asuka's eyes, but she still followed Shen Yun's instructions and headed to K3 region.

……

K3 region.

"This is the TPC Police Department. We are now issuing an evacuation order for the coastal area centered on the K3 district. All districts..." TPC police patrol cars drove through the empty streets, broadcasting the evacuation order over and over again.

"Asuka!" Ken Fudo saw Asuka and couldn't help but go up and pat him on the shoulder to greet him.

"Immovable?" Asuka was also somewhat surprised to see Ken Fudo wearing standard exoskeleton armor.

He never expected to run into his arch-nemesis Ken Fudo here.

"Tomorrow at noon, we will engage in a decisive battle with the enemy. I look forward to fighting alongside you all," Ken Fudo said with a smile, putting his arm around Asuka's neck.

"Fudo, aren't you afraid? Aren't you afraid of dying?" Asuka asked, looking at Fudo Ken who was laughing heartily.

"It would be a lie to say I'm not afraid. But from the day I joined TPC and the Hunter Team, I was prepared. To die protecting humanity and this planet would be a worthy death!" Ken Fudo raised his hand and touched Asuka's chest, then smiled and said, "Alright, I have work to do. See you later. I hope we'll both still be alive by then."

With that, Kenjiro Fudo quickly left the camp.

“Real… courage?” After watching Ken Fudo leave, Asuka left the TPC camp and wandered aimlessly to a skybridge.

Suddenly, someone slapped his butt.

Asuka looked down and saw a child holding a doll and dressed in the same outfit as the Super GUTS team looking up at him, asking:

"Brother, are you a member of the Super GUTS team?"

"Aren't you one too?" Asuka smiled as she looked at the Super GUTS-style outfit the child was wearing.

"You'll definitely help us defeat the monster, right?" the child asked.

"Hmm." Asuka nodded and said, "But, how should I put it, this enemy is very strong."

"This won't do! How could a coward like you join the Super GUTS team? If I were the captain, I'd fire you!" The child, hearing Asuka's dejected words, immediately jumped up and down, punching Asuka's butt.

"Really? That makes sense." Asuka squatted down and sighed.

Then, his gaze fell on the doll in the child's hand, and he asked:

"Is this... Ultraman Dyna?"

"No, this is Ultraman Tiga!" The child handed the Tiga doll to Asuka.

“Tiga…” Asuka picked up the badly chipped doll, her eyes filled with memories.

Ultraman Tiga has not appeared since he saved humanity from the clutches of an evil god eight years ago.

"My brother gave me this doll the day he went to space pilot school. He said if I carried it, I could turn into light!" the child said.

"Light……"

“Yes! Tiga is light! So, no matter how powerful the enemy is, he can win,” the child said firmly.

"I'm sorry, this child has caused you trouble." The child's parents came up and quickly bowed in apology.

"No, no. Please go and take refuge quickly," Asuka said hastily, returning the Tiga doll to the child.

"Goodbye, brother~" the child waved goodbye to the bird.

The bird smiled and waved goodbye to him.

Afterwards, Feiniao returned to the TPC Integrated Base and approached Shen Yun.

"Director, is Ultraman Tiga just an ordinary person like me?" (End of Chapter)
