Rider Build: Starting in Next Form

I took the elevator back to the first floor and happened to see Tsukuyomi, who was about to go out.

"Nexus, good morning. I'm going to meet up with Sougo to find Gates. I wonder where Gates has gone." Tsukuyomi yawned.

Given Gates' temperament, if no one's watching him, he might get into a fight with some thugs and end up in jail.

This possibility inexplicably popped into Tsukuyomi's mind, and the more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Of course, it's also possible that something else happened.

After all, in this era, those Time Jackers are like sharks smelling blood to them. Given Gates' personality, there's no way he would ask her or Sougo for help.

"Let me know when you find it." Luo Yuan walked into the kitchen, picked up the kettle to boil some water, made a cup of coffee, and casually said to Tsukuyomi.

The story about Another Gaim is actually quite simple. Sougo from two or three days in the future will come to the present to help the present Sougo and his friends resolve this issue. This time, he'll just be a complete slacker.

When Zi-O: Armor form appears at this point in time, simply upgrade Gaim's watch to Gaim: Extreme Rider Watch.

That's right, Luo Yuan had already obtained Gaim's Rider Watch in the early hours of last night.

"Okay, I'll be going now." Tsukuyomi glanced at the clock; the time she had agreed to meet with Sougo was almost up. She pushed open the door and hurried towards the 9-to-5 Hall.

Luo Yuan picked up the freshly brewed coffee, sat down in a chair at the dining table, took a sip, and thought, "Hmm, not bad."

After leisurely staying at home for a while, Luo Yuan decided to go out for a stroll. He happened to go to the place where the Another Armor was born, which seemed to be a dance troupe called Baron...

…………

A quarter of an hour later, Luo Yuan arrived at his destination riding the Miracle Blazing Warrior.

But at this moment, screams rose and fell, and many ordinary people were fleeing in all directions.

"This situation... it seems that Another Armor can't hide it anymore and has already transformed, right?" Luo Yuan muttered to himself, putting away Miracle Blaze and looking ahead, just in time to see Sougo and Tsukuyomi walking out from the opposite street corner.

"Good morning, senior." Zhuang Wu, wearing a dark blue shirt, greeted Luo Yuan.

"Oh, it's Zhuang Wu. Good morning." Luo Yuan looked at Zhuang Wu with a meaningful gaze and held up three fingers.

"Uh... Senior!" Sougo's expression froze instantly. Did the senior see through him so quickly?

Chapter 290 Swartz's Self-Inflicted Calamity

Sougo was extremely flustered at this moment. If Tsukuyomi and Woz found out that he came from three days in the future, he would probably be severely scolded. After all, history should never be arbitrarily altered.

“Nexus? Hehehe, just in time.” Swartz walked out from somewhere with a laugh, and at the same time, the sound of a zipper being zipped up could be heard.

“I just sent Gates to the Forest of Helheim, and now it’s your turn.” Swartz stretched out his hand, activating his time-stop ability. Everyone around him froze, their gazes fixed on Nexus, wanting to see Nexus’s resentful expression as he was imprisoned in the Forest of Helheim. But to their surprise, not only did Nexus not show any resentment, but a meaningful smile even appeared on his lips.

But this is for the best; the less Nexus cares, the easier it is for his plan to succeed.

"Make your move," Swartz commanded.

A zipper opened behind Luo Yuan, as if trying to swallow him whole.

"Hahaha, Nexus, let's see what you can do?" Swartz revealed a contemptuous smile, wanting to see how Nexus could escape under the influence of time stop.

He had already observed beforehand that Nexus was not wearing the Exid Invincible Player watch, which meant that he was not immune to time stop at this moment.

Just then, a flash of silver light appeared on Luo Yuan's body, directly breaking through the control of time stop. His figure transformed into a series of afterimages and rushed in front of Swartz before he could react.

A punch landed squarely on Swartz's chest, visibly denting his chest. Swartz immediately curled up like a cooked shrimp in pain. Then, a leg hooked around Swartz's abdomen, sending him flying.

"Honestly, I was planning to relax and have some fun today, why did I have to court death? Haven't you heard how miserable the fate of my enemies was back in the era of Creation Knights?" Luo Yuan said as if talking to himself, his tone unusually cold.

Swartz, kneeling on the ground, clutched his stomach, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Is this really the reaction speed and strength that an ordinary human being could possess?

No, wait! Should we say that all the Riders in the Rider Build line are such outrageous monsters?

Although Swartz knew that there was a power system called Danger Level in the history of Rider Build, he didn't take it seriously. After all, in his opinion, no matter how powerful Danger Level was, could it compete with the power of time?

Swartz felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He never expected that he had underestimated Nexus!

"you……!"

"how?"

"No!" Seeing Nexus moving closer to him again, Swartz quickly crawled away from Luo Yuan.

The effects of the time stop gradually dissipated, and everyone present stared in astonishment at the scene.

"What... what did Swartz do? How did he get beaten up like this by Nexus?" Tsukuyomi felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at Swartz's miserable state.

"He just used time stop to try and ambush you, senior, and send you into that strange space. He ended up getting beaten up like that by you." Sougo shook his head silently, looking at Swartz's miserable state. He really brought it on himself…

"Really? Wait, that's not right. We were all stopped in time just now, how do you know so much?" Tsukuyomi asked in confusion. She didn't know what happened after being stopped in time, so how could Sougo know so much?

"Uh...this..." Zhuang Wu's expression froze instantly. He was doomed; he'd been exposed. What was he going to do now? The Time Jacker, where was the Time Jacker?!

At that moment, as if hearing Sougo's prayer, Ul stopped time once again. With a worried expression, Ul picked up Swartz and then released his time-manipulation ability onto himself, disappearing from the scene within seconds.

Time, return to normal.

"Ah! I think I see Another Gaim! I'll go after it right away!" Before Tsukuyomi could even respond, Sougo ran off in a certain direction as if his life depended on it.

Tsukuyomi was even more confused. Where did Geiz go? And how did Sougo know that Another Rider was Gaim this time?

…………

"Ur, how badly is he injured?" Aura asked indifferently, looking at Swartz, who had already fainted from the pain.

“The injuries are very serious,” Ur said anxiously, lifting Swartz’s shirt.

His entire chest was caved in; it's safe to say he had several broken ribs.

If Swarus hadn't been a Time Jacker with exceptionally strong vitality, he probably would have died long ago.

"That's really terrifying." Aura narrowed her eyes slightly.

Such decisiveness and ruthlessness in taking action, and he's also a Kamen Rider user—isn't this exactly the ideal king she's been waiting for?

Looking back at those other Riders who transformed, what a bunch of weirdos!

"I'll try to see if I can help heal his injuries. If that doesn't work, I'll have to send him to the future for treatment." Ul took out a tablet, switched it to medical mode, and a green light shone from the tablet's camera, illuminating Swartz's sunken chest.

Visibly, the sunken area was gradually bulging out, and the chest, which had turned bluish-purple, was gradually returning to its normal color. Then came the internal bleeding, and the previous step was repeated.

The broken ribs have been initially repaired, but a full recovery will require at least a month of rest.

The tablet displays: The patient will need at least some time to recover consciousness.

"Looks like Swartz got away with it." Aura crossed her arms. "Ur, you should avoid provoking Nexus in the future. He's not like other Kamen Riders. If you anger him, he really will kill you."

"I know, I understand. I never imagined Nexus would be so terrifying." Ul was hiding nearby, watching Swartz's suicidal behavior. Nexus's brutality made him afraid to even open his eyes.

…………

"The qualities to become a king..."

While Swarus was getting hammered, Woz was also observing, and his face showed the same surprise.

In terms of methods, he is in no way inferior to the future Demon King, and his power far surpasses that of the current Demon King. Yet, it is precisely this kind of person who wants to help his Demon King become king.

"It seems we don't need to bring him here to clear obstacles on the current Demon King's path to becoming king," Woz muttered to himself.

Now, Geiz has been thrown into the Helheim Forest by Another Gaim, and the only one who can still influence His Majesty the Demon King is Tsukuyomi, who is still living with Nexus.

No one can stop His Majesty the Demon King from becoming king.

Chapter 291 Devouring the Fruits of Helheim Forest

Helheim Forest.

Asura, the user of Another Armor, looked extremely pale. The person who gave him his power had been crippled, and he was also frightened by the look in the eyes of the crippled person who had given him his power. Various thoughts raced through his mind.

How could such a terrifying person exist!

And judging from the way they act, they're enemies. Doesn't that mean I've been targeted by that person too?!

It took Asura several years and various means to finally reach the top position in the dance troupe, and she was really reluctant to give it up.

"That person didn't seem to see me just now..." Asura calmed down and recalled the whole scene. She hadn't appeared at all; she had just been hiding in a corner where no one could see her and was simply following Swartz's orders.

"I still have a chance!"

"I have to find a way to distract that person. What should I do? What should I do?" As his mind raced, Asura's gaze inadvertently drifted to a tree nearby. The tree was covered with vines, and on the vines hung dark red fruits. Asura subconsciously swallowed. For some reason, he felt that the fruits looked delicious and tasty.

"What's going on? Why do I want to eat these things?" Since obtaining the power of Another Armor in 2013, Asura has never set foot in this place in the past five years, except for throwing those who get in his way into this world, nor has he noticed anything wrong with this place.

At that moment, Asura's stomach growled, and hunger overwhelmed him. Ignoring whether the fruits were good or bad, he grabbed one and stuffed it into his mouth. Each time he ate a fruit, it would turn into a stream of light and flow into the Alien Armor Watch inside Asura's body.

A dark orange light was released from the Another Gaim Watch, and a powerful force filled Asura's body.

"This is... power! An endless source of power! As long as I become stronger, I won't have to fear that person anymore!!!" Asura was overjoyed to discover this, and he kept devouring the fruits here. When he couldn't eat anymore, a cold smile appeared on his lips. "Go back and prepare for the next performance. As for that person, if he dares to show up, kill him! And those fools I imprisoned in this world, kill them before they know the secret of these fruits! Kill them after the performance!"

The passage opened, and Asura stepped back into the real world, completely unaware that two people were watching him from the shadows.

"Hey! Why did you stop me just now? We could have left here!" Gates glared angrily at the man in front of him named Kaito Kabuto. That was a golden opportunity for them to leave!

"Can you really defeat him? The passage out of here can be opened and closed in Asura's mind. He can close the passage before we even get out." Kaito glanced at Gates and sneered, "I see hesitation in you, a lack of confidence in your own strength. In that case, you might as well stay here and go out. You're just going to your death anyway."

"You!" Gates glared angrily at Kaito, his anger seething inside. "What nonsense are you spouting! How could I possibly doubt my own strength?! I will definitely leave this place and defeat my enemies!"

Kaito didn't respond to Gates; instead, his face darkened.

Having lived in this strange place for five years, I not only have to evade the monsters that hunt me down every day, but I also have to resist the temptation to eat those fruits, struggling to survive in this forest.

How could he not want to go out?

…………

In a completely dark space.

With blond hair and dressed in white, Kouta Kazuha, the Man of Beginning, stood here with a furrowed brow.

"What exactly happened? Why did Nexus arrive in this world even faster than expected?"

After much thought, Kouta Kuzuha still couldn't figure out why.

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. I just hope that Kaito can live well in this world." Since he couldn't figure out the reason no matter how hard he tried, Kouta Kazuha simply stopped thinking about it. The Helheim Forest in this world was too small, and the help it could provide him was extremely weak. Kouta Kazuha felt his senses weakening, so he withdrew his power.

Let's try to perceive that world again after some time has passed.

…………

"Ok?"
