Ultimate Force Zero ~Side Story~ Revisions
So basically I found Chinese translations of the novel for Zero's 10th anniversary and there's a bunch of stuff that are quite important in the novel.
And here's the
English translation of the novel. Let's get started
High 3-A
So it's been stated multiple times that the universe is infinite
From the perspective of the infinite universe, human is a really small existence, but in their heart there is light that surpasses that universe.
An infinite universe that has stirred the dreams of people since ancient times. A confrontation between two aliens unfolds there. The stage has shifted to Earth, and the two sides have finally come to blows...
コスモスワールドは無限大ですから!Because the Cosmos world is infinite. Too lazy to get a translation for the whole thing but this line from the interview outright says Cosmos’ world/universe is infinite.
And here in the novel they said this for
Boundless means having no boundaries and ends. And synonyms of the word includes endless and infinite.
In the Chinese translation of the novel they also used the words 无垠. And in Japanese the closest word to that is 無限 Mugen which is infinite. I don't have the original Japanese novel as it seems to be
locked behind Tsuburaya Imagination which requires a Japanese account so I don't know what the original Japanese text said about this part of the novel. But yeah this is just supporting evidence on the universes in the Ultra Series being infinite.
So I propose that the current
3-As in the series should become at least
3-A, likely
High 3-A due to the universes likely being infinite.
Low 2-C
So as we all know in
this thread the Super Dimension Eradication Bomb was accepted as at least 3-A, likely Low 2-C due to their not being enough evidence that it affected the timeline. However as it turns out this was mentioned in the Ultimate Force Zero novel.
The place they are in right now is the Waterfall of Time a place that exists outside of the universe.
Here it's stated that the bomb could destroy space-time and the entire universe had it not been stopped midway by
Ultraman King. And not only that the effects of the bomb also affected the Waterfall of Time which exists outside of the universe so its range isn't limited to just the universe. They outright stated that the
Super-Dimension Eradication Bomb blasted the Guardian's physical body to another era from the future. Which shows the bomb is indeed capable of affecting even the timeline of the past before the bomb itself was even created.
The Guardian of Time is somebody that exists in the Waterfall of time so his perception of time is different from Zero's which was why in the novel it said to the Guardian the events of Crisis Impact was not long ago but to Zero it was a long time later. The novel takes place after Ultra Zero Fight but before the New Generation Era even began which means this took place over 81 years before the events of Crisis Impact which supports the fact that to Zero this event hasn't happened yet and won't happen for a long time.
So I propose that instead of at least
3-A, likely
Low 2-C. The Super-Dimension Eradication Bomb should be changed to at least
Low 2-C, possibly
higher as we now have undeniable proof that the bomb is capable of destroying the space-time, affecting even the past timeline before it was created, and affect places outside of the universe this means the bomb itself is somewhat above baseline
Low 2-C and should get a possibly
higher rating due to having range greater than one universe.
This would also make every character that currently scales to the bomb outright
Low 2-C.
Shining Zero Multiplier
And now we are on to Zero and oh boy there's quite a bit of upgrades. First off we have Shining Zero which actually has enough evidence of a multiplier now.
So first of all during the New Generation Era we've known that Future Cosmos is about 2x stronger than Ultimate Zero
due to the scaling
Eclipse Mode Cosmos is 150x baseline 3-A due to being
tens of (at least 20x) times stronger than Corona Mode Cosmos who is comparable to Base Ginga who is 7.5x baseline 3-A.
Ultimate Zero is 300x baseline 3-A due to being
many (at least 4x) times stronger than Base Zero who scales above Dark Zagi who is 75x baseline 3-A due to being
an order of magnitude (10x) stronger than Base Ginga lvl characters.
Future Mode Cosmos is 600x baseline 3-A due to being
several (4x) stronger than Eclipse Mode Cosmos who is 150x baseline 3-A. We used the 4x high end of several because Future Mode Cosmos is comparable to Crusher Mode Justice who is stated to be
many (at least 4x) times stronger than Standard Mode Justice who is comparable to Eclipse Mode Cosmos.
Shining Zero scales above Future Mode Cosmos
due to his statement about being the strongest Ultra Warrior during the events of the Ginga S movie.
And now in the novel even after the mindless physical body of the Guardian of Time singlehandedly defeated the entirety of Ultimate Force Zero.
Zero still believed that if he had Shining he could defeat it.
And this was proven when the future Zero came to save him in Shining managed to injure it
When previously it required the combined power of Ultimate Zero and four other characters comparable to Base Zero to damage it.
This is Ultimate Zero who is 4x Base Zero + the other 4 members of Ultimate Force Zero whom are all comparable to Base Zero. So in total this was 8x the power of Base Zero. So Shining Zero being at least 2x stronger than Ultimate Zero is actually pretty consistent.
Zero Abilities/Resistances
And as it turns out Zero also gained quite the ability and resistance upgrade from this novel.
In order to gain control of Shining form, the Guardian of Time gave Zero a trial to swim through the vortex that is concentration of all the flow of time in the Ultra Series Multiverse. And in the
Ultra Series Multiverse there are Countless x Countless numbers of universes. The current known multiverse is already countless in number but there are still unexplored areas where countless other universes have branched off from the current multiverse long ago.
We know that in this case the world is referring to the multiverse and not a single universe because the Waterfall of Time exist in a place outside of the universes. And it's been known for a while that in the Ultra Series each and every universe has its own flow of time.
Here in UGF1, Zero says he will can Rosso and Blu back to their own space-time. The correct translation here is space-time as they said 時空 Jikū and not 次元 Jigen which is dimension.
Here in UGF2, Zett says the same about how in this space-time there's another him.
And in the Taiga movie, Isami tells Katsumi how they couldn't detect Tregear was here because time moves differently on their Earth.
And in the GRF Voice Drama, Ribut says how it's possible for a universe to have a different history with Izana saying that might not be true for all which means it is possible for some to be completely different.
So this would mean Base Zero would have countless x countless layers of time manipulation as well as existence erasure resistance. As he straight up swam through the literal concentration of time that could wipe him out of existence.
Also in the novel they revealed that Shining Zero can indeed slow down the time of a target to the point where they have been stopped in time. Also his Time Manipulation was shown to override the Time Manipulation of the Guardian of Time's physical body.
So Zero should outright have Time Stop on his profile and his Time Manipulation would be beyond basic Time Manipulation as he could overwrite the Time Manipulation of another character. Also its mentioned that Shining Zero's Time Manipulation is connected to the Waterfall of Time
Which means that his Shining Form's Time Manipulation is potentially also countless x countless layered as the Waterfall of Time is where the time of all universes converge in one. So this is what I propose to be Zero's new Time Manipulation description.
"Shining can create temporal fields that accelerates, decelerates, and even stop the time of whoever and whatever is caught in it. His time powers can override the Time Manipulation of the Guardian's physical body. It is also stated by the Guardian's conscious spirit that his powers are connected to the Waterfall of Time itself, where the time of all universes can be converged, hinting that Zero might be capable of the same level of feat."
And this to be part of his Time Manipulation Resistance description
"To control Shining, Zero was forced to swim through the combined time flow of all universes, of which there are countless upon countless of in existence, and if he was to be distracted for even a moment he would be erased. He has also described the experience as grinding his body to dust."
Summary/TLDR
3-A characters becomes at least
3-A, likely
High 3-A
At least
3-A, likely
Low 2-C characters become outright
Low 2-C
Super-Dimension Eradication Bomb becomes At least
Low 2-C, possibly
higher
Zero's Shining Form should be at least 2x stronger than Ultimate Form
Zero has a Countless x Countless layered Time Manipulation and Existence Erasure resistance as well as more forms of Time Manipulation as well as his Time Manipulation being two layered and potentially Countless x Countless layered due to being connected to the Waterfall of Time.
That should be about it. This is how it looks all compiled in one. Also when should I post it?
Oh right also here's the google docs with all the chapters of the novel.
