DC : Ultraman

On this pitch-black night, stars in the sky emitted faint glimmers. Although it was only 10 PM, there were no people in sight on the streets.

In the corners of the city, sin proliferated, and even in a metropolis, it was no exception.

At the metropolis's harbor, a few shadowy figures were surreptitiously transferring some peculiar crates onto a cargo ship.

The lead man with tattoos admonished his subordinates, "Move quickly and don't delay too long, or this cargo could become dangerous."

"Understood, boss," one of the henchmen with a lip piercing replied, and then he and the others hastened their actions.

The Tattooed Gang was busy with a "big job," and these crates made entirely of wood were specially covered with a layer of lead to counteract someone's powerful X-ray vision.

These lead-laden crates were heavy, and even their leader, Janet, with superpowers, could only bring a few strong henchmen to handle this job.

The night concealed the Tattooed Gang's smuggling activities, but it also brought them danger.

A dark gray figure stood in the distance, cold optical goggles fixed on the Tattooed Gang and the ship.

The eyes behind the optical goggles betrayed no emotion. The wind howled, and then the dark gray figure disappeared into the night sky.

The Tattooed Gang's henchmen by the dock were diligently working for their boss. Fortunately, they had already received a substantial down payment before the boss arrived; otherwise, he would have suspected he was being played.

The Tattooed Gang's members loaded the final lead-lined crate onto the ship, and the henchmen rejoiced at the thought of the imminent payment.

"After finishing this job, we can enjoy ice for months again. Just thinking about it is thrilling." While one henchman daydreamed about their "happiness," a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

The figure wore black-gray armor with a blue-glowing energy core on the chest, and cold optical goggles scanned the area.

"What is this thing?!" one of the thugs asked in confusion and drew his handgun, aiming it at the mysterious person in black-gray armor.

In an instant, the person in black-gray armor stamped his right foot, and his figure transformed into a phantom. Several Tattooed Gang thugs fell in the blink of an eye.

Instantly, only their boss, Jante, remained standing among the Tattooed Gang members. He gazed at his fallen henchmen with a grim expression. "Are you the lackeys the White Shark Gang hired to deal with me?"

"The White Shark Gang?" the mysterious person scoffed. "If you're so fond of them, it won't be long before you meet them, Jante of the Tattooed Gang."

"Jett!"

Hearing this, Jante was filled with anger. The tattoos all over his body began to glow.

These tattoos weren't just for looks; when they started to glow, it meant something serious. As they illuminated, the mysterious person also moved. He darted out, reaching Janet before anyone could react, and delivered a powerful punch to Jante's face.

Facing a punch that was sure to knock him down, Jante raised his right hand and met the punch head-on.

"Boom!"

The mysterious person's fist struck Jante's palm, but it didn't budge him. In fact, Jante's right hand kept growing in size.

"Kid, had enough fun yet?" Jante's eyes glowed, and he began to exert pressure with his gripping hand.

Jante's arm became incredibly massive. Just his single arm seemed almost as large as the mysterious person himself, and combined with his terrifying tattoos, it was a truly chilling sight.

"Creak, creak."

The armor on the mysterious person's body emitted a series of creaking sounds, indicating that the metal on the armor was being twisted.

"This strength is astonishing, probably over a hundred tons," the mysterious person estimated.

"You're going to die!" Jante roared, and with his enormous arm, he hurled the mysterious person away.

"Boom!"

The mysterious person was sent flying and, under the force of Jante's immense power, smashed through three or four containers.

Watching the mysterious person flying in the distance, Jante's lips curled in disdain.

"You thought you could fight me with this? You're truly an ignorant fool!"

With that, Jante turned to leave.

But at that moment, the person in black-gray armor crawled out of the containers. The circular energy core on his chest emitted waves of blue light, and a substance known as "Spacium particles" began to spread throughout his armor and body.

His armor became lighter, and every cell in his body became more active under the influence of Spacium particles. His entire being was filled with strength.

Every corner of his body was brimming with power!

The mysterious person suddenly kicked off, shooting forward like an arrow released from a bowstring.

Even the air made a faint "whooshing" sound as he moved at high speed, as if it was being sliced open.

"What?" Jante, sensing the movement, quickly used his giant hand to shield himself, creating a nearly impenetrable defense.

"Crash!"

The mysterious person unleashed a powerful kick to Janet's right calf.

"Snap!"

With a crisp sound of bones breaking, Jante's right calf was shattered. The pulverizing fracture caused him to lose control of his balance, and he ended up kneeling on the ground. However, amid the pain, Jante didn't forget to counterattack. Ignoring the agony, he swiftly turned and clenched his modified giant fist, striking towards the mysterious person.

The strength that could topple a medium-sized tank made Jante overwhelmingly dominant, but the mysterious person, with an agile figure compared to Jante's, managed to hold his ground. Jante felt the pressure even though he was in the stronger position.

The energy core on the mysterious person's chest went into overload, releasing a large amount of Spacium particles that increased his strength. Under the mysterious person's enhanced power, Jante's clenched hand was gradually pushed back.

After forcing Jante into a disadvantageous position, the mysterious person exerted a sudden burst of force, sending Jante flying in the direction of the cargo ship.

"Boom!"
