Kamen Rider from the ancient times

2018 12 Month 22 Day.

After traveling a distance through the Desert of Time, the electric train once again took to the sky and entered a vortex that appeared out of nowhere, heading towards the era of 2018 in this world.

And on the train before that—

"So, Ryotaro Nogami, why are you in this world? — Stop saying I summoned you."

As Kawahara rested his chin on his hand, he watched as the train attendant placed a cup of coffee on the table in front of him.

"what……"

Ryotaro Nogami unconsciously responded with a single syllable.

Despite being Kamen Rider Den-O, he should have experienced many events and battles, but even dressed in a mature suit, Ryotaro Nogami still seems to have an unfading sense of naivety and gentleness.

After thanking the flight attendant who handed him a cup of black tea, he scratched his head somewhat sheepishly and said, "It shouldn't be Mr. Kawahara, it's Momotaros and the others..."

"What?" Kawahara raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Ah, no...that's not right..."

Ryotaro Nogami hurriedly corrected him, "The correct answer should be Fengtalos!"

Kawahara took a sip of his long-missed coffee, watching the deep brown ripples gently spreading across the rim of the cup, before slowly saying, "You know about the existence of Fengtaros."

"Uh……"

Whether it was due to the characteristics of being a singularity or Kamen Rider Den-O's special attack on Imagin, Nogami Ryotaro recognized Fuutaros at first glance, even though both Godai Yusuke and Kazuha Kouta were convinced that it was "Kawahara calling".

—Although it cannot be ruled out that those two guys insisted on using this explanation because they wanted to tease him.

Kawahara took a sip of coffee while muttering to himself.

Ryotaro Nogami glanced in the direction of the dining car, pursed his lips and smiled slightly, "Actually, I only just found out myself. Momotaros and the others felt that a new partner had appeared, so they brought me on the electric train as well."

Before this, Ryotaro Nogami was working diligently at the company.

Suddenly, the Den-Ban Train, which he hadn't seen for a long time since shedding his identity as "Kamen Rider Den-O," pulled up in front of him, and Momotaros and the other Imagin dragged him onto the train without saying a word.

Since the work wasn't finished, Ryotaro Nogami naturally resisted a little.

However, as always, the protests were ineffective.

Ryotaro Nogami continued, "I heard them say that the singularity of this world has been sealed by the enemy, and the history of the Kamen Riders has also disappeared, so..."

Actually, before the electric train picked him up, Nogami Ryotaro had also heard a voice.

It was as if someone from a distant time and space was calling to him.

Call him—Kamen Rider Den-O!
Since the Imagin's plot was thwarted, Ryotaro Nogami hasn't become Kamen Rider Den-O for a long time, but he has never forgotten those events.

At that moment, he had a vague premonition that his help was needed somewhere.

Someone needs Kamen Rider Den-O.

It was at this moment that several Otherworldly beings—Momotaros, Urataros, Kintaros, and Ryutaros—who were crammed into the electric train and were always bickering and joking around, also heard such a sound.

Because they are also part of "Kamen Rider Den-O".

So Momotaros seized the opportunity and decisively used the electric train to grab Ryotaro Nogami, who was on his way to work, onto the train. Although Momotaros and the others knew that this guy just wanted to take this opportunity to see Ryotaro.

"The commander said the new Otherworldly being is Fuentalos!"

Ryotaro Nogami said with sparkling eyes, "That's great, it's the same name as Momotaros and the others!"

“That guy has memories of all the Kamen Riders. Maybe after discovering that he was an Imagin, he took a name like Momotaros and even his materialized form is in that style,” Kawahara Yuuyu said.

"Ah...I see?" Nogami Ryotaro smiled shyly again.

At that moment, Momotaros's loud, passionate voice rang out from one end of the carriage. "Hahaha—I see! So you're my fan!"

The Imagin that walked out of the restaurant carriage had a strange appearance like a red demon. Yusuke Godai and Kouta Kazuha, who were looking at the scenery through the window next to them, also looked over when they heard the sound.

Momotaros had one hand on his hip, while Fuentaros, who had run up ahead of him, was being held by the neck and trapped in the crook of his other arm.

Unable to struggle, Feng Talos gave an awkward laugh.

Then Momotaros casually dragged Fuutaros to the booth where Kawahara and Nogami Ryotaro were sitting. He then put one foot on the edge of the seat, rested one hand on his knee, and arrogantly leaned towards Kawahara's side with a sharp gaze.

"You guy..."

Momotaros's voice was deep and dangerous.

Kawahara raised an eyebrow and looked him up and down: "What?"

Seeing this, Ryotaro Nogami quickly stood up, trying to ease the tension: "Momotaros..."

Behind the counter at the front of the carriage, flight attendant Naomi and three other Imagin were playfully bickering. Judging from the actions of Urtaros and Rontaros, they seemed to be secretly anticipating something.

Perhaps they're waiting for Momotaros to start fighting.

Or it could mean being beaten.

But the next moment, Momotaros suddenly withdrew his oppressive posture and turned to look at Fengtaros, who was being held in his arms.

“Your contractor seems pretty good!” Momotaros said seriously.

"...No, he's not my contractor," Feng Talos said speechlessly.

The tense atmosphere that seemed about to erupt instantly dissipated. Momotaros pushed Fengtaros away again, crossed his arms, stared at Kawahara, and said, "We've already heard everything from Zeronos. You're the guy who changed history, right?"

Kawahara: "?" So this is how Yuuto Sakurai explained it to you guys?
Not far away, Putaros immediately seized the opportunity to elegantly mock: "Are you an idiot? Zeronos was talking about the Shocker leader's attempt to change history, not that this person changed history."

"Oh……"

Momotaros paused upon hearing this: "So he's not the leader of Shocker?"

Kawahara was expressionless: "..."

You could say he changed history, but you can't say something as insulting as calling him the leader of Shocker!

Ryotaro Nogami glanced at Kawahara's expression and quickly pushed away the oblivious and reckless Momotaros: "Alright, alright, stop meddling!"

"What?! We're Den-O too!"

Momotaros grumbled unhappily, but still couldn't resist Nogami Ryotaro's weak strength.

Ryotaro Nogami, who had pushed the person away, let out a breath, glanced at Futaros who was curiously examining him, gave the new Imagin a rather soft and gentle smile, and then looked at Kawahara.

“Mr. Kawahara, shall we help with the rest?” Nogami Ryotaro said softly.

As if to echo his words, the electric train crossed the passage opened by the Desert of Time and arrived in the skies of the world in 2018.

Rumbling--

The electric train sounded its long whistle. In the sky where it wandered and shuttled, meteorites with long tail flames streaked across the horizon, and huge windmills rose from the ground in the city that should have been ordinary!

Architecture that doesn't belong to this world has appeared.

The once clear sky was now a dark, rusty red, filled with an atmosphere of impending crisis, as if a storm was brewing.

"It was like the end of the world."

Kota Kuzuha frowned as he looked out the window.
