Kamen Rider from the ancient times

The Otherworldly Tower of the Wind—

When Kawahara and the others arrived, they saw a strange phenomenon in mid-air.

A fiery red, mechanical dragon-like Musou Dragon shot out from the building's wall, then roared fiercely as it coiled around once before crashing into Another Fuuto Tower together with another red-clad Kamen Rider who had leaped into the air!
"Boom——"

The tower was blasted open with sparks and flames, and there was a sound of something breaking apart. The Kamen Rider jumped straight into the gap that had been kicked open.

Kawahara looked over there in surprise.

Tsugami Shoichi immediately clapped his hands: "Wow! Mr. Kido is really amazing!"

“You guys…?” Kawahara looked at him again.

“Oh! I just ran into him when I got here, but the Dragon Knight said that if we want to deal with these monsters quickly, we need to find the enemy’s headquarters first!” Tsugami Shoichi said.

Strictly speaking, it was because when Tsugami Shoichi was suddenly summoned to fight the monster, he complained to the Ryuki next to him, "I really want to finish things here quickly and go back to cook!"
Upon hearing this, Kamen Rider Ryuki pondered for a moment and left Agito there to protect the people, while he was tasked with finding the mastermind behind it all.

Then he kicked open the enemy base.

Through the blasted-open gap in the Another Fuuto Tower, one can see that, in addition to Kamen Rider Ryuki who just jumped in, there are Kamen Rider Build, Kamen Rider CrossZ, as well as Kamen Rider ZiO and Kamen Rider Geiz.

They've already started a group buy there.

……

For those who are subject to the Time Tribulation.

Their most formidable tactic is not only to dominate the world by disrupting history, but also to freeze time in a region.

Although in the world of Kamen Rider Zi-O, the Time Jackers are given power by Swartz of the Time Clan, there may be other special ability users called "Time Jackers" in different worlds.

Teed the Time Jacker is a prime example!
Before Tokiwa Sougo, Kiryu Sento, and Banjou Ryuga could even use their Rider Drivers to transform, Teed stopped their time.

The four of them froze in their transformation poses, stuck in place on the way.

"why……"

Super Time Jacker Tide sat dejectedly on the steps not far away, letting out a soft sigh as if in helplessness, before suddenly glaring angrily at the Kamen Riders at the door with a ferocious expression.

"You are clearly fake, you don't exist! Why do you keep appearing in front of me!"

"That's enough for me!"

Accompanied by Teed's almost hysterical shouts, several alien knights rushed out of the shadows and launched an attack on the four who had been suspended.

However, under the effects of the super time stop, even Tokiwa Sougo was completely unable to move, and could only watch helplessly as the sharp attack drew closer and closer to their bodies—

At that very moment, the wall behind them seemed to bulge out as if pressure was applied from the outside, spiderweb-like cracks spread out, and molten lava-like scorching light seeped out and then suddenly exploded!

"Boom——"

The red dragon, bursting through the wall, roared and disappeared into the void. Then, Kamen Rider Ryuki, who had been kicked in, landed in the center of the hall along with the collapsed and shattered bricks.

Bang!
Impacted by external energy, the space where time had stopped was also broken by this knight's kick, and the four of them staggered forward a step to regain their footing.

Tokiwa Sougo looked up with shining eyes.

"Dragon Rider?!"

Kamen Rider Ryuki nodded to them, then assumed a defensive stance, wary of the Other Riders around him and Tid, who had a gloomy face opposite him.

Broken cement bricks flew and crashed down, sending the approaching alien knights flying.

Teed remained hunched over on the steps, tilting his head slightly and closing his eyes, letting small pebbles fall on him. He seemed unaffected, but his tightly clenched lips betrayed the emotions he was suppressing to the extreme.

"enough--"

"Have you all had enough?!"

"Kamen Riders are just fictional creations; you shouldn't even exist in this world!"

"Disappear—!!"

Teed stood up and screamed frantically, his face contorted as the super time-stop force field was released from him once more!

But at the same time, a golden energy wave spread from the outside, and the area that had just stopped for less than a second was shattered by this force, and even Teed behind him was shaken by the shock.

He looked on in surprise and disbelief, only to see several more Kamen Riders walking in from outside the hall.

Among them, besides Kamen Rider Kuuga, who caused him the most distress, there was also a strange man with platinum blonde hair wearing a white cloak.

"It's you……"

Teed took a step back with a slightly surprised expression.

Kawahara tilted his head and looked at him: "You know me?"

“No…” Tide just shook his head, staring at him with hatred in his eyes.

"No! You're the one who shouldn't even be here! The history of Kamen Rider's creation is wrong! Your existence is even more wrong!!"

When Teed said these words, he was already close to madness. With his will, the corresponding Other Knights around him launched another attack on the group!
Seeing this, Tokiwa Sougo and the others quickly activated their drivers and transformed, the huge clock ticking away like a heartbeat.

Even after a full cycle, a clock always moves forward.

The course of history can only move forward.

"History is born from our memories. We are here, Kamen Rider is here, so we are real!"

Kamen Rider Kuuga's solemn voice rang out.

"That's right! As long as someone remembers us, as long as someone still needs us, Kamen Rider will always exist!"

The Wheel of Time transformed into armor fragments covering Tokiwa Sougo's body, and as his irregular magenta compound eyes lit up, Kamen Rider ZiO spoke with unwavering determination.

"Whether it's reality or fiction doesn't matter, because we truly exist here and now!"

The heatwave and the construction of energy pipelines produced red and blue light effects, and the resounding music rang out as Kamen Rider Build appeared with a confident and proud posture.

In such an exciting atmosphere, Kuzuha Kouta really wanted to shout out loud, but the Other Riders had already rushed in front of them.

So he could only add a particularly excited remark while drawing out the Great Orange Pill to fight.

"Alright~ Now it's our turn to perform!"

……

Hearing those firm and unwavering words, Kawahara's eyes flickered slightly, and his previously fluctuating emotions gradually calmed down.

This isn't the first time I've heard the question of whether he should exist in the history of knights.

The last guy to say that to him.

It has long since turned to ash.

Ignoring the Other Riders and various monsters rushing towards him but being blocked by the Kamen Riders, Kawahara looked at Tide opposite him and walked straight towards him.

Upon noticing his actions, Tide became alert, and in the next moment, the dazzling platinum light suddenly appeared before his eyes!

Teed skillfully used time stop, and Kawahara also released his spacetime power at the same time to break the time stop, but Teed had already seized the opportunity to widen the distance again.

"Ha, the time manager who controls this world, I know what you've done!" Tide suddenly sneered.

"..."

Kawahara paused upon hearing the unfamiliar address.

Tide immediately snarled, "Even if you want to stop all this now, it's too late! Haven't you realized yet? I've already sent Another Den-O back to 1993. This time, I won't hold back and will completely eliminate Shingo Hisanaga!"

The singularity must be resolved the day it is born!
Previously, he only intended to seal Shingo Hisanaga away, since Teid's goal was simply to dominate the world using the power of Another Riders.

However, repeated failures and the constant appearances of Kamen Riders gradually eroded his patience.

Even though eliminating the singularity might cause the spacetime of this world to collapse, Teed didn't want to worry about that anymore. Rather than dominating this world, he now wanted to make these Kamen Riders pay the price!
Thinking that the plan was about to succeed, Teed couldn't help but reveal a twisted smile of excitement on his face.

"Kamen Riders—Prepare for destruction!"

He opened his arms and shouted desperately.

Boom——

As if to prove his words, a blazing meteorite fell toward the city from the dim sky as a fierce wind poured in through the tower’s huge opening, only to explode into fragments under a single attack.

Immediately afterwards, a silver, flowing curtain appeared in the air, and then Another Den-O, piloting the Time-Space Demon Machine, was thrown out from it.

The figures of Kamen Riders appeared one after another.

Kawahara blinked when he noticed that scene.

"Another Den-O is back."

He said in a calm voice, "It seems you came back in 1993, so does that mean it's over?"

Tide turned his head and looked over: "..."

From the tower's vantage point, one could see everything in the city. The "Time-Space Demon Machine," capable of traversing time, lay scattered on the ground, and then the utterly defeated Another Den-O emerged from it.

What kind of destructive plan was set in 1993?

It's over before it even begins.
