History[]
Ultraman Arc[]
Having been sent to Earth alongside Sweed as part of Ze Su's final plan to kill Arc and Yuma Hize by poisoning them with pollutants sent through the Ze Su Gate, Guilebaku's first objective was to attempt to convince Yuma that everything he had experienced for the past 16 years was a dream, though this failed when Shu Ishido managed to successfully locate him, awakening Yuma from his unconsciousness.
Guilebaku later appeared on Earth by emerging from the same spatial disturbance previously used by Trigelos, and immediately began attacking the city, making a direct course for SKIP's headquarters in an effort to destroy them. Yuma transformed into Arc to protect his friends, but the poisoning had rendered Arc critically weak, causing his Color Timer to immediately begin blinking, and his Galaxy Armor malfunctioned, causing him to be injured by his own Arc Feathers. Guilebaku then injured Arc further by using its Circle Cutters to repeatedly strike him. In desperation, Arc tried to fire his Arc Finalize, but Guilebaku used its Dream-Illusion Beams to make Arc fall unconscious. The Descending Dream
With Arc unconscious, Guilebaku subjected Yuma to dreams where his parents were still alive in order to convince him to break his bond with Arc in order to reactivate the Ze Su Gate. Fortunately, Yuma was able to overcome with, forcing Guilebaku to appear in his dreams in order to fight him as he turned into Arc. However, Guilbaku began to manipulate Yuma’s dreamscape, causing buildings to move and surround Arc. This allowed Guilebaku to attack Arc with its arms. Outside the dreamscape, Shu and YouPi managed to sneak underneath the barrier. Shu used a device made by SKIP to fire an energy beam filled with Arc's Onyxium Particles at Guilebaku's Guileba Crystal, damaging it and causing the Dome Barrier it had made to disappear, allowing the GDF to launch an attack on it, causing damage to both in the real world and in the dream world, allowing Arc to get free. Arc then summoned the Galaxy Armor again, but this time managed to fight through the poison and create the Miracle Arc Cube, allowing him to fire his new Galaxer-Over-The-Top attack on Guilebaku, destroying it in the dream world, causing it to explode in the real world. Guilebaku's defeat allowed Arc to regain consciousness and restore his Color Timer. Time to Run, Yuma!
