Rider Build: Starting in Next Form

"It seems that the Zi-O from another world is much more reliable than you. At least he didn't have to retake the exam." Geiz added another blow to Sougo's heart.

But soon, even Gates himself stopped laughing.

The image on the screen had changed to the scene of Gates frantically studying.

The night passed quickly.

…………

The next day, at seven o'clock in the morning.

After his walk, Luo Yuan went to the 9 to 5 Hall. As soon as he entered, he saw Zhuang Wu and Gates, both with dark circles under their eyes, staring at him with a strange look.

Even with the reason of amnesia, the two still felt a sense of unease about their counterparts in another world.

Especially the last half hour, with the bizarre scenes of Sougo and Gates playing on a loop, accompanied by very energetic music, the two of them had no idea how they got back to their nine-to-five jobs last night.

"Senior, was that child saved?" Sougo was still more concerned about this question.

"What do you think? Me, the other you from another world, Sento and the others, all the Heisei Kamen Riders fought together and defeated Another Ultimate Kuuga, the Time Jacker who had transformed into him." These seemingly casual words made Sougo and Geiz think of many things.

Imagine how amazing it would be if all the Kamen Riders of the Heisei era fought together!

For the next month or so, there was another period of peace. The Time Robbers seemed to have completely disappeared, without a trace.

…………

An arcade in a shopping mall.

A young man is intently watching the character he is controlling on the screen in front of him; a muscular man is fighting against a female character.

His hands kept manipulating the joystick and buttons in front of him, but unfortunately it was no use. The male character's health bar was quickly depleted by the female character.

Enraged, he slammed his hand on the game console. The impact sent a jolt of pain through his hand, and after wiping it on his pants, he reached into his pocket, ready to start another game.

“You’ve been losing all this time.” Ul appeared beside the young man, resting his chin on his hand, looking at the word KO on the game console in front of him.

"What's it to you! Don't talk to me!" the young man said irritably, already in a bad mood.

"Your name is Kouya Tsutomu, and you're Hibiki's apprentice, right?" Ul calmly looked at the emotionally unstable young man beside him.

"I am no longer his apprentice." When this was mentioned, Tsutomu Koya's face seemed to show no emotion as he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Can you help me lure out Hibiki? I'll help you fulfill your wish to become a demon." Ul's lips curled slightly, and then he took out a purplish-black watch and activated it.

Before Tsutomu Koya could answer, Ul sent the watch into his body. The powerful force impacted Koya's body, and purple flames ignited on his body. His body trembled violently, the flames dissipated, and a ghostly figure was revealed.

"Hibiki!" (Hibiki)

The tourists who were originally sightseeing saw what was happening and screamed and ran away.

“From now on, you are Kamen Rider Hibiki. Just a heads up, don’t mess with a silver-gray Rider.” Ul froze time around him and took out two photos.

One photo was taken when Luo Yuan was transforming, and the other was taken after he had transformed.

After placing the two photos in the hands of the Rai-no-Ki, Ul turned and left, and time resumed its flow as Ul departed.

…………

At this moment, on the rooftop of the shopping mall.

Swartz looked up into the distance, his face grim, lost in thought.

"We've already signed a contract with Another Hibiki's contractor and reminded him about Nexus. Now we'll see if this bait can lure out the real Kamen Rider Hibiki."

Ul's voice came from behind Swartz.

"Swartz, how's your investigation going?" Ul asked, but seeing the other's gloomy expression, he already understood.

There were no results, and the same was true for Aura.

"Where exactly did Nexus discover that spacetime?" Ul frowned deeply. For nearly a month, the three of them had traveled to every spacetime they could find, but none of them were related to the world called Extreme Fox that Nexus had mentioned.

"Our primary goal right now is to prevent Tokiwa Sougo from becoming Oma Zi-O. We can put the Nexus issue aside for now," Swartz said slowly.

…………

Nine to five hours a day.

Luo Yuan sat in a chair in the living room, fiddling with his Chuangqi phone.

Not far away, Gates was doing push-ups with great effort, his face turning red.

“395! 396! 397! 398!”

Woz walked out of the restaurant with a calendar in his hand, muttering something to himself. He didn't notice Gates doing push-ups on the floor at all, and walked straight over to him, kicking Gates in the face.

Caught off guard, Gates scrambled to his feet and asked warily, "Is that Another Rider?"

Woz quickly regained his balance, completely ignoring Gates's thoughts, which angered Gates, who yelled, "Can't you even watch where you're going?!"

"The day of destiny has finally arrived, and I must stake my entire existence on this day!" Woz muttered to himself, his eyes fixed intently on the date circled in red on the calendar in his hand.

"What are you talking about? What happened?" Gates looked bewildered. Had this guy finally given up on the constant changes to history and gone mad?

"Today is Sougo's birthday, and Woz is preparing a birthday message for him," Luo Yuan said casually, glancing up at the activity.

“That’s right… What?!” Woz looked at Luo Yuan in disbelief, his face showing shock. How did he know what I was thinking?

"Oh, it's Zi-O's birthday." Geiz didn't react much to this. After all, in their era, just surviving each day was good enough, let alone celebrating birthdays.

Chapter 465 Kamen Rider Todoroki

"Good morning." Sougo came down from the second floor wearing blue and white striped pajamas, startling Woz, who quickly hid the calendar in his pocket.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Woz's unusual behavior, Sougo curiously moved closer.

"No, no, no, it's nothing. You've mistaken His Majesty the Demon King," Woz denied.

"Good morning, Sougo. Did you get up too late?" Tokiwa Junichiro walked out of the restaurant carrying a large booklet.

"Good morning."

"Mr. Junichiro, what is this?" Woz quickly changed the subject.

"Oh, right, everyone, come and take a look. This is Sougo's elementary school graduation yearbook." Noticing Woz's unusual behavior and the calendar in his arms, Tokiwa Junichiro immediately reacted and changed the subject for Woz, placing the booklet open on the glass cabinet.

The booklet was divided into four sections per page, each containing a black and white photograph. Next to the photograph were the names, ages, hobbies, and other information of the people in the photos.

Several people gathered around.

"Tsutomu Kogaya's special skill is... running fast?" Gates's lips twitched slightly. What was that?

But after looking at Sougo's entry, where his special skill was sleeping and his dream was to become king, Gates suddenly felt much more normal.

I looked back at it again, and the content that followed had changed a lot.

My dream is to become a ghost.

My master is amazing, he's a Hibiki!

Hibiki is my target!

One day, I will become a powerful ghost!

"I really miss those days. Back then, we encouraged each other for our dreams." Sougo said with a nostalgic expression. From childhood to now, he had only met this one person who shared the same unique dream as him.

"Why does he want to become a ghost?" Gates asked, puzzled.

"Hmm... He said it was a very important job, that the demons protect everyone from the bad guys." Sougo vividly remembered the words of this kindred spirit who shared the same unique dream.

"Work?" Gates was even more confused.

"You guys are really something else. Young people these days have such unique ideas," Tokiwa Junichiro teased. "I'll go heat up your breakfast for you."

"Thank you, Uncle." Sougo glanced at Tsutomu Koya's file again, and seeing the words "Hibiki" on it, a thought suddenly popped into his head: "Hibiki... Kamen Rider Hibiki?! Could it be that he really became a demon?"

Sougo was surprised and happy that his friend might have realized his dream.

“So, your friend or his mentor might be the person we’re looking for,” Gates said immediately.

“You’re right, that guy named Koya Tsutomu did indeed become a demon, but a different kind of Hibiki.” Luo Yuan said calmly, looking at the Chuangqi phone.

"He really succeeded, wait... Another Hibiki? Not Kamen Rider Hibiki?!" Sougo immediately realized that changing the prefix completely changed the meaning!

“That’s right.” Luo Yuan confirmed Zhuang Wu’s idea.

"Senior, thank you for the clue. I will definitely bring him back!" Zhuang Wu immediately rushed upstairs, changed his clothes, and hurriedly ran out of the 9 to 5 Hall, with Gates following closely behind.

Luo Yuan remained seated in his chair, but he put away his Kamen Rider phone and took out two Rider Watches: the Kamen Rider Hibiki Basic Form Watch and the Hibiki Armor Watch.

The two watches were tapped together and they became one, and could be separated back into two watches if needed.

“Kamen Rider Hibiki…” Luo Yuan muttered to himself, glanced at Woz who was pondering a congratulatory message in the restaurant, and then turned and walked out of the 9 to 5 restaurant.

…………

When Luo Yuan arrived at the location, Zi-O and Geiz were already fighting Another Hibiki. He looked up and glanced at Ul, who was standing on the overpass and hadn't noticed him.

"My target isn't you. I hope the commotion here doesn't attract Nexus too." Ur frowned slightly as he looked at the situation below.

Ghosts usually live in seclusion to cultivate themselves, but they can still be found in modern society. There is an unwritten rule among ghosts that troubles caused by ghosts are to be resolved by other ghosts.

Every master who has an apprentice must be responsible for the apprentice's apprentice to the end.

Tsutomu Kogaya has been causing trouble everywhere as the freak Hibiki for so long, yet his master still hasn't appeared. The sight of Zi-O and Geiz drawn below also makes him uneasy.

"Hey, hello there." A voice suddenly reached his ears.

Ur turned his head and saw the figure beside him, and subconsciously took several steps back to the left.

Suddenly, Luo Yuan appeared beside him.

"What do you want to do? Let me make it clear beforehand, I'm not targeting you this time! I'm just trying to lure out Hibiki!" Ul said in a panic. At this moment, Another Hibiki was fighting Zi-O and Geiz below, and his own time-stopping power was ineffective against Nexus. If a conflict really broke out, he would be the one to suffer.

“I know, that’s why I haven’t laid a hand on you.” Luo Yuan patted Ul on the shoulder, then looked down.

After observing for a while, Ul realized that Nexus really had no intention of attacking him, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

below.

Seizing the opportunity, the strange demon grabbed the two fists that were attacking him, pressed them together, gathered its strength in its mouth, and spat out blazing purple flames.

At extremely close range, the attack hit directly, and both were burned by the flames and forced back.

But just as the Otherworldly Hibiki was about to launch another attack, a clear guitar sound caught his attention.
