Kamen Rider Evolution

World Tree Group, high-level office.

"What, you said that the Sengoku driver has no data!" Takatora Gojima straightened up and looked at the computer screen and said in surprise.

"That's right. When the strange man used the Sengoku drive, I didn't receive any lock type data sent back, but the A-level lock type Orange used by Kuzuya Kota transmitted the data back completely." In the pop-up window on the computer screen, a researcher wearing a white coat and with neatly combed hair except for a small tuft hanging on the right side of his face said.

The place where the researcher was located looked like a biological laboratory, with various types of bottles and jars placed on the table. The surrounding light was dim, dull and mysterious, as if some horrible biochemical experiment was being conducted.

The only difference is that the biochemical experiment jars in horror movies are filled with various human heads, but this laboratory is filled with fruits with red skin, which are taken from the Helheim Forest.

"Lingma, is there anyone other than you who can make the Sengoku Driver?" Takatora Gojima asked the researcher.

"Impossible. It's impossible without complete manufacturing data. After all, it was developed by me and named after me." The researcher was very confident that he was the best in studying the fruits of the Helheim Forest.

His full name is Sengoku Ryoma. He is the developer of the Sengoku Driver and one of the first people to notice the invasion of Helheim Forest.

"Is it possible that the data of the Sengoku driver was leaked, or is there a traitor in the group's senior management?" Takatora Gojima frowned.

"I'll leave it to you to investigate, Takatora. As long as you recover his Sengoku Driver, I'll know where the source is." Sengoku Lingma raised his eyebrows and said in a brisk tone, "If, Takatora, you can't do it, then I'll have to find a way."

"This is a battle between two Zangetsu masters. To be honest, I'm quite looking forward to it. The combat power of that stranger is much stronger than that of Kuzuha Kota, who only used it twice, so we have to be extra careful."

"Thank you for your reminder, Lingma." Takatora Gojima also hung up the video call directly.

Two Zangetsu? Takatora Gojima took out the melon lock in his hand and fumbled with it gently for a few times. Then he stood up and walked out of the office.

It can be seen that Sengoku Ryoma and Gojima Takatora are friends or have an equal relationship, otherwise which researcher would speak to his superior in such a tone? After all, Gojima Takatora is already the top executive of the World Tree Group in Zema City.

Fruit dessert shop.

Kaito Kimono, wearing a black and red uniform, pushed open the door and went straight to a small compartment at the deepest part on the right. Seijiro Bando, who was wearing a floral shirt and wiping cups, did not react much to the customer who did not order anything, but continued to do his own thing.

He knew and understood that Qi Wen Jie Dou was the captain of the Baron team, and he also knew the purpose of his coming here, because the dessert shop was not just a dessert shop, it was an information exchange center specifically for street dancers to participate in the Alien Game, and it was also a black market for trading fixed-lock seeds.

As a boss, he is no longer surprised by such behavior, and it also brings him traffic and extra money, so he supports doing so.

"You called me and told me that you had a way to defeat the Gaim Team, right?" Qiwen Jiedou got straight to the point. He sat down in front of a middle-aged man wearing a black hat and crossed his arms over his chest. "As a black market lock dealer, you really know the inside story of that belt."

"Well, that's a good thing. Its name is the Sengoku Driver. It's much more powerful than a simple lock. It was originally the captain of the Gaim Team, Kakui Yuya, who first obtained it from me, but he disappeared, and the Sengoku Driver fell into the hands of Kuzuha Kota."

After the Garden Hat Merchant finished speaking, he looked at Qu Wen Jie Dou. Just by looking at his eyes, he knew that his spot as the second experimental subject was already secured. This guy's desire for power was extraordinary.

After all, the Gaim Team has climbed from the last place in the Street Dance Group to the third place in just a few days with the power of the Sengoku Driver. Conventional lock types simply cannot beat the Armored Knights. It would be strange if the Baron Team, as the first place, was not anxious.

"How much? Just tell me a number." There was no expression in Qu Wen Jie Dou's brown eyes.

The round hat merchant slowly raised a finger to indicate the number.

"Okay, I agree. Where's the thing?" Qi Wen Jie Dou smiled coldly. This price was worth it to exchange for the power of the belt. Once he defeated Gaim, this money would be nothing.

"Don't be so anxious. I have brought the things." The round-hatted merchant took out a black box from beside his seat. He opened it on the spot in front of the driver's ring. At the bottom was a black foam panel, and placed in the depression was a Zhan Ji driver, and next to it was a lock with a banana pattern engraved on it.

The price is also calculated. After all, if you want to collect the usage data of the Zhan Ji drive, the price must not be too expensive, and of course it cannot be too cheap, so it is very important to choose the right price for the right person.

The Baron team has always been ranked high, so it is more expensive when it is sold, while the last-place teams like Gaim are sold cheaper, or even given away for free.

The key is not to make money, but to send out these Zhan Ji Drivers and let them indulge in the power. Now those who use the Zhan Ji Drivers are all experimental subjects, there is no difference.

Qi Wen Jie Dou picked up the belt and put it around his waist. When he put it on, the side of the belt, which was originally blank, suddenly appeared a yellow knight icon, which looked a bit like a banana.

That's right, start fighting among yourselves quickly. The more intense the fight, the more information the World Tree will collect, and then the path to evolving into a god will be opened. The Garden Hat Merchant sneered in his heart as he watched Qu Wen Jie Dou leave.

The secret base of the Gaim Team.

The members of the Gaim Team were dancing in the center of the garage, the ground was vibrating rhythmically, and all the gorgeous lights were turned on.

Everyone here is swaying their bodies and dancing in unison, with the exception of one audience member. For the dancers on the stage, the audience is very important, especially when the audience member is a handsome guy.

The lights and music here gradually stopped in this cheerful atmosphere, and the only audience member sitting in the stage also applauded. This might be the only thing he was not very good at, he could only fight and could not do street dance.

"Well, the dance is beautiful and energetic." Jiang Xia praised.

This situation has been going on for a few days. He was responsible for watching the girls dance and was the only spectator, and then eating the peeled fruit, which was a fruit plate.

It's a bit like dancing in a nightclub, but this is not a nightclub, but the Gaim team is practicing street dance. The fruit plates here are free, and they are not dancing randomly, but a very neat and entertaining dance.

"Thank you. This is the first time there are audiences here." Gao Siwu wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel.

As soon as she saw Jiang Xia sitting below and looking at her, she wanted to perform her movements more standardly and show herself, so even though it was just an ordinary practice, she tried her best to dance her best.

Dancing is a physical activity, but being exhausted and sweating is completely different from the intensity of normal practice. However, she still felt very happy after receiving praise.

"Take a break. They should have retrieved their things." Jiang Xia handed over a glass of water. He didn't expect that there would be a prize money for participating in the competition. He only read the general rules and thought that it would be enough to defeat all challengers. He didn't read them in detail at all.

Yes, if there is no actual reward mechanism, who would fight with all their might?
"I wonder how much the prize money for this victory will be." Gao Siwu took a sip of water and half-lay on the sofa. Her hair, which was originally tied in two ponytails, came loose, and her jet-black hair like a waterfall swirled around the edge of the sofa.

She secretly looked at Jiang Xia in front of her. With his help, the Gaim Team jumped from the ninth place at the bottom of the ranking to the third place in one breath, which was something they couldn't do even when Yuya was still there.

Who is he?

Unlike Kota Kuzuba and her other friends, who she grew up with, she found that she knew absolutely nothing about Jiang Xia.

I don’t know where he lives, what he does, or what he likes.

He is like a big tree, just staying here quietly.

"Sister Wu, it's bad. Baron said they want to compete again, and I heard that Baron's captain can also transform into an armored knight. Kota and Asi have been blocked." Ozawa Kamada suddenly opened the door and said anxiously.

He had been telling a joke a few days ago, saying that it would be great if he could transform one day, but now the joke had come true, but it happened to someone else, and that was their mortal enemy, the captain of the Baron team.

"What, they are dueling there?" Gao Siwu asked anxiously. There are two knights in the Gaim Team, why choose Kota at this time?

"It's at the stage to the west of yesterday, and the stakes seem to be very high," said Ozawa Kamada.

"Oh no, Kota has the prize money on him. It would be terrible if it is used as a bet." Gao Siwu stood up suddenly and wanted to hurry over, but because he had just exhausted too much physical energy, the moment he took a step, his legs and feet went weak and he fell forward.

"Sister Wu!" "A Wu!"

The people around shouted loudly for help, but they were too far away from Gao Siwu and had no time to save her. Moreover, they did not expect that Gao Siwu, who always had excellent physical fitness, would collapse due to exhaustion after practicing dancing.

"bump!"

A pair of strong hands suddenly stretched out from behind and hugged Gao Siwu who was about to fall. Jiang Xia looked at Gao Siwu in his arms and spoke softly:
"We can just go. You don't have to worry. It might be too late to rush over now. Besides, Kuzuya Kota may not lose. Even if he loses, I can go and win it back."

"No, Kota is holding your bonus, so he can't be used as a bet. I must stop them." Gao Siwu looked up at Jiang Xia. It was the first time for her to face someone so close to her, and she was not nervous. Instead, she refuted firmly.

I didn't expect Gao Siwu to be such a stubborn person now. He could see that she was serious this time and would not compromise. There was nothing he could do. Jiang Xia looked around at the worried girl nearby and said:
"You guys go first, I'll send Wu over later."

"Okay, we'll go over first." The girl with short hair secretly waved to the other team members, indicating that they should hurry up.

This wasn't a notice at all, but rather it was like giving them direct orders, but they had no choice but to obey the orders, as if they would be in big trouble if they didn't.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Xia and Gao Siwu were the only two people left in the originally bustling secret base; everyone had left.

"How do you want to send me off?" Gao Siwu looked around and felt a little confused about her current situation. She wouldn't be carried like this, would she? If so, she would have no choice but to hide her face in the sand like an ostrich.

"Open your arms." Jiang Xia said.

"Huh?" Gao Siwu was a little confused, but still did it.

In just a moment, she felt dizzy, and then her hands seemed to instinctively hold something, and even her posture changed.

She was actually carried on Jiang Xia's back. How did he do that? Carrying and hugging should be two different actions. How did he do it in an instant? Gao Siwu, who was on his back, was full of confusion.

Being carried on her back by a man she had just met, she not only did not resist, but instead thought in such a strange direction. Therefore, human thinking is impossible to predict, and it is impossible to guess what a girl is thinking.

"Let's go now." Jiang Xia weighed the girl behind him. She was really light. It was hard to imagine that such energetic street dance was performed by a petite girl.

"Yeah." Gao Siwu hugged Jiang Xia's neck, put her face on his back, and hummed softly.

The two of them walked out of the secret base like this. Jiang Xia carried Gao Siwu on his back and walked in the green park, very slowly, very slowly, as if they were taking an outing or a stroll.

This time Gao Siwu didn't mention the speed. At the beginning, she closed her eyes for fear that others would see her.

But later, at some point, she opened her eyes, feeling the bright sunshine unrestrainedly, and enjoying the refreshing breeze with a hint of coolness.

The long black hair is fluttering, as if leaving everything behind.

This is different from the feeling of playing with friends and dancing hip-hop together. Although it is fun, the feeling is completely different. It is a world of only two people.

The roar of cars suddenly disrupted the tranquility and peace of the park. A large number of black cars suddenly turned their steering wheels from the road, swerving and rushing across the park, completely blocking all access.

The road ahead was blocked, and there were cars rushing towards us from behind.

The doors of these black cars opened quickly, and out poured out were elite-looking troops wearing black combat uniforms. They had things similar to war drivers on their waists and submachine guns in their arms.

"Crack!"

The sound of bullets being propelled could be heard from each of their bodies, and the black muzzles of guns were aimed at Jiang Xia and Gao Siwu from all directions.

As long as they slightly pulled the trigger, the orange-yellow bullets would turn the surrounded people into sieves in an instant.

Gao Siwu was frightened by the sudden appearance of the special forces. She hugged Jiang Xia's neck tightly with her trembling body.

"Don't be afraid. It seems you have to go to the battle scene between Gaim and Baron alone. They are here to find me." Jiang Xia gently patted Gao Siwu's trembling body and put her down from his back.

"But what can you do? Who are those people?" She didn't want to leave.

"Be obedient, it'll be okay." Jiang Xia glanced at the black muzzle of the gun. This was not a lineup for facing humans.

"How about letting ordinary people leave first?" Jiang Xia looked at the only guy sitting in the car who did not get out.

"Okay." The guy in the car waved his hand, and the people around him followed his orders and put down their guns.

"Let's go. I won't be able to concentrate on the battle if you stay here." Jiang Xia said to Gao Siwu.

"No, I..." Gao Siwu was about to refuse when she saw Jiang Xia's determined eyes, which were a look that could not be refused.

"Okay, be careful." Gao Siwu could only purse his lips and walked out of the encirclement, looking back every few steps.

"Tell me, what exactly does the World Tree want to do with such a big fuss?" Jiang Xia felt a little relaxed after watching Gao Siwu leave.

Of course, the gun was raised again.

"You have an unrecorded Sengoku drive on you," the man in the car said.

"Just for this?"

"Also, you have no identity. Just looking at these two points alone, it's not worth it. But the punch that hit the alien was clearly beyond the scope of humans. It's impossible for humans to do this. So what we are facing is an inhuman monster with human intelligence and the ability to create a war drive."

"The girl following you must have been bewitched by you. If they can't find out your origins, it may cause great trouble to the World Tree's plan." The car door slowly opened, and a man in a high-end suit walked down. It was Takatora Gojima.

He originally wanted to come alone. After all, he was very confident in his own strength. Retrieving the Zhan Ji Driver was just an ordinary mission. However, when he went to check the target's information, he found that there was no such person. You know, World Tree is not an ordinary group. It has branches all over the world. It's just that its headquarters is in Zeya City because of the rift.

But now, according to the information from all over the world, there is no evidence of this. In addition, there is no possibility that the guy who knocked the alien into the wall with one punch and shattered the wall directly is a human being.

This time the buffs are really stacked up. He is not a human being. He has the technology to make belts and even has the power to hypnotize or control people's minds (referring to the Sengoku drive, the inexplicable data leakage and the very close Mai Takashi). If he doesn't take so many anomalies seriously, then he might as well be like those incompetent policemen in Zeya City and do nothing every day.

"So that's how it is. I roughly understand it." Jiang Xia nodded thoughtfully.

"No matter what kind of monster you are, you can't withstand so many submachine guns firing at the same time," said Takatora Gojima.

The bullets in these submachine guns are converted from the power of the lock through the Zhanji driver, and even the aliens from the Helheim Forest cannot stop them.

"Really? But they can't shoot now." Jiang Xia just moved his fingers slightly, and countless shattering sounds rang out simultaneously in the encirclement.

The submachine gun that was just aimed at Jiang Xia was directly shattered, and it was directly broken into the parts that make up the submachine gun. Not one piece was missing, and various parts were scattered all over the ground. If you are very familiar with the structure of the gun, you can still put it back together with your hands.

But now the fight is about to start, who would take their time to fight? (End of this chapter)
