Special effects: Starting with Ultraman Tiga

Chapter 436 Omniscient and Omnipotent!

"My name is Katsumi Daido. I am the first test subject of the Immortal Soldier Nerve, a project invested in by Foundation X, and also Kamen Rider Eternal. I have returned to Fuuto this time to cause trouble for Foundation X," Katsumi Daido introduced himself.

"The contest just now was merely a simple test, to see if your strength was sufficient to qualify you as my allies."

"So, you attacked us to test our strength?" Trial's tone was somewhat displeased.

"That's right. You are quite strong and qualified to be my allies." Dao Keji nodded, his smile fading as he said seriously, "The mastermind behind Consortium X is far stronger than me. Without sufficient strength, even if you were to stand before them, you would only be a hindrance. I don't need someone who can only be a burden."

Shotaro was somewhat displeased with Daido Katsumi's words, but when he thought of the platinum-colored knight they had encountered before, he could only remain silent.

That guy is incredibly powerful, almost beyond compare.

Even though they had destroyed the museum, they still felt a deep sense of powerlessness when facing that guy.

"Nerve... Daido Katsumi... It's him?!" Nasca heard the name Daido Katsumi and felt it sounded familiar. After thinking about it carefully, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Kihiko, do you know this Daido Katsumi?" Shotaro asked.

"I wouldn't say I know him personally, I've only heard about him. Katsumi Daido and his Nerve squad used to be executioners for Corporation X. They betrayed Corporation X for some reason two years ago," Nasca explained.

"There are so many traitors in Foundation X," Philip couldn't help but remark upon hearing this.

"I know you. You chose to betray Corporation X in order to protect Fuuto," Daido Katsumi said, looking at Nasca with a smile.

"You know?" Nasca asked, somewhat surprised.

"Of course, because I am also from Fengdu, I have always been paying attention to things in Fengdu." Daido Katsumi smiled faintly and said, "At that time, it was because I learned that the Foundation X was using my hometown—Fengdu—as an experimental city for the Gaia Memory that I chose to betray the Foundation X."

"Is that really how it is?"

In just a few words, the tense atmosphere gradually eased.

Meanwhile, Shotaro and the others also deactivated their transformations, which meant they believed in Katsumi Daido's words.

"The Great Way of Self-Discipline: What do you plan to do?" Shotaro Sato stepped forward and asked.

"My men have located that person," Da Dao Keji said.

Of course, the main problem was that person didn't try to hide their whereabouts.

"Have you found it? Then let's just attack it." Shotaro said, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

"No, not yet. My Eternal Memory is a very special Gaia Memory. Once activated, all Gaia Memory from before T2 will become invalid. Just like the word Eternal, it will become invalid forever." Daido Katsumi shook his head and said.

"There really is such a memory? That's quite intriguing." Philip stroked his chin, a hint of interest appearing on his face.

"If you want to challenge that guy, you'll need to make some adjustments to the Eternal Memory," said Daido Katsumi, looking at the boy in front of him who looked almost exactly like him when he was young.

"So, you want to seal Eternal's ability to disable Gaia's memory from before T2?" Philip asked.

"That's right. Only you can do this, brother."

"I'll give it a try," Philip said.

Soon, the group left the designated area of ​​Fuuto Tower and returned to Narumi Detective Agency for a short rest.

……

Fengdu Tower.

Shen Yun also received the report from A2, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

"Oh? They've joined forces? I see. Send people to drive everyone out of the Wind Tower. Also, bring over a few more masquerade hybrids to make up the numbers, and while you're at it, have Wan Deng Xue Shi and Jia Tou come over to help guard the tower."

For such a grand scene, of course, we have to go for the classic tower climbing! (The movie version also involves tower climbing, but only Shotaro does it alone.)

"Yes." A2 nodded and immediately began making arrangements according to Shen Yun's instructions.

Because of the upcoming fireworks festival, there were quite a few tourists inside the Futo Tower.

However, the tourists were quickly driven away from the Futo Tower by masquerade thugs, screaming as they fled.

Meanwhile, television signals throughout Fuuto were hijacked, and a platinum-colored Kamen Rider appeared on screens everywhere, saying, "Announcement to all citizens of Fuuto. Tomorrow at noon, I will launch the Gaia Impact at Fuuto Tower. Kamen Riders of Fuuto, try to stop me! You only have one day!"

After he finished speaking, the television signals returned to normal, but his remarks caused chaos in Fengdu.

Shotaro and the others also saw the live broadcast and felt anxious.

"Tomorrow at noon? Philip, is one night enough?" Shotaro turned to look at Philip, who was studying the Eternal Memory, and asked.

"One night is enough," Philip replied without looking up.

"Okay, let's call him directly tomorrow morning. We must stop him!" Shotaro clenched his fist and said.

……

The next day.

Several figures approached together in front of the Fengdu Tower.

Looking at the sheer number of masquerade-like figures that practically filled the area around Fuuto Tower, Shotaro couldn't help but click his tongue and say, "Wow, there are so many of these grunts. Are they from Ura Fuuto?"

"No, they don't seem like humans; they're more like clones created by memory," Philip said after observing them for a while.

Shotaro adjusted his hat and said, "Looks like we'll have to fight our way up."

"Leave these grunts to me and Ken-chan. Katsumi-chan, you two need to conserve your energy," Izumi Kyosui said.

"Hmm." Kenjiro Ashihara nodded with a cold expression.

He felt that Izumi Kyosui was right; there must be unknown enemies inside the Fuuto Tower, and conserving energy was the most important thing.

"Let the few of us clear the way here," said Domoto Gozo, taking off his shirt and patting his muscular chest.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Daido Katsumi nodded, then took out the Lost Driver.

Shotaro and the others also took out their respective drivers and memory.

"Accel!" "Nasca!" "Skull!" "Cyclone!" "Joker!"

"Eternal!" "Heat!" "Metal!" "Luna!" "Trigger!"

Amidst a burst of colorful light effects, the group of ten transformed into Kamen Riders or hybrids.

After transforming into the Trigger Dopant, Ken Ashihara immediately raised his right arm, which resembled a large-caliber sniper rifle, and fired at the large number of Masquerade Dopants in front of him.

"Boom!"

A shell was fired, landing in the crowd of masquerade hybrids, and then exploded with a bang.

The explosion was so powerful that it sent several masquerade hybrids flying on the spot.

Suddenly attacked, the masquerade hybrids noticed the line of people and immediately surged forward in a dense, overwhelming manner.

As the blazing dopants surged forward, she raised a finger, a flame burning at her fingertip.

With a flick of its wrist, the fiery dopant caused the wisp of flame to grow rapidly, transforming into a fireball the size of a soccer ball in the blink of an eye, which landed on the oncoming masquerade dopant.

"Boom!"

The fireball exploded in the crowd, immediately creating a gap, but the gap was quickly filled by more masquerade hybrids.

"Ha!" The metal dopant swung its metal rod and charged ahead, clearing a path with it.

"I'm going too!" The Luna Doppelganger waved its noodle-like arms, and several other Masquerade Doppelgangers appeared in front of it and rushed toward the other Masquerade Doppelgangers.

After throwing out several clones, the Moon Goddess Doppelganger's arms, as supple as noodles, immediately extended and wrapped around the masquerade doppelgangers that had surrounded it, saying, "Katsumi-chan, hurry over there!"

Kamen Rider Eternal lifted his cape and walked towards the path opened by the Luna Dopant, saying, "You all follow."

"I'll leave my body in your care, Miss Maria," Philip said, turning around to look at Miki Daido, who was holding his fallen body.

"Okay." Miki Daidou nodded upon hearing this, then reached out and gently stroked Philip's hair, her eyes filled with tenderness.

This child is so much like the self-discipline he displayed when he was young.

"Let's go!" Shotaro Sato shook his hand and immediately followed.

Escorted by several people, W and the others entered the Wind Tower and ran towards the higher floors.

Meanwhile, Luna Doppelganger and Trigger Doppelganger remained on the first floor of the Wind Tower, clearing out the Masquerade Doppelgangers to prevent these grunts from interfering with W's battle.

Soon, W and his group climbed to the second floor.

"Gentlemen, please stop here." Wan Deng Xue Shi walked out with a smile.

As he spoke, he took out the Gaia Driver Rex and put it on his waist.

"Aurora!"

"Only executives of the Sonozaki family possess a golden memory!" Philip exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the golden Aurora Memory held in the hand of Yukishi Mantou.

"This is a small privilege for the sponsor, I suppose." Wan Deng Xue Shi smiled slightly and inserted the Aurora Memory into the Gaia Driver Rex at his waist.

A golden light flashed in the center of the Gaia Driver Rex.

Then, a beautiful and ethereal aurora curtain lit up behind Wan Deng Xue Shi, and Wan Deng Xue Shi transformed into an aurora hybrid with a magnificent upper body like the starry sky, a black lower body, a skirt like the starry sky around her waist, and golden halos around her hands.

"Aurora..."

"Leave this guy to me and Lixiang. Keji, you two go up first." The metal dopant said to Eternal, carrying the metal pole on his shoulder.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Eternal glanced at the Aurora Dopant. The golden Gaia Memory was strong, but the T2 Gaia Memory was not weak either.

The Fiery Dopant raised its hand and threw a ball of fire at the Aurora Dopant. The Aurora Dopant lightly touched the ground with its toes and jumped back, thus dodging the fireball thrown by the Fiery Dopant.

"Boom!"

The fireball landed on the ground and exploded with a bang, blasting a hole in the floor of the Wind Tower.

"Watch me beat you to a pulp!" The metal dopant swung its metal rod and charged toward the aurora dopant.

Seeing the metal dopant, the incandescent dopant, and the aurora dopant engage in combat, the others did not linger and immediately climbed to the top of the Wind Tower.

Soon, W and his group arrived at the middle level of the Wind Tower.

Kato Jun sat calmly in his chair, sipping his black tea. Looking at the five Kamen Riders rushing towards him, he said expressionlessly, "Only two Dopants were left? Then I'll leave at least three."

"So it's you, my defeated foe," Eternal said sarcastically as he saw Jia Tou Shun sitting in the chair.

"Clatter!"

Upon hearing this, Jia Toushun suddenly dropped the cup he was holding to the ground. The exquisite teacup shattered into pieces of various sizes, and tea spilled all over the floor, some even splashing onto Jia Toushun's trousers.

"Great Dao Lord, your words are truly hurtful. However, it's not bad that we were able to keep you here."

As he spoke, Kato Shunya stood up and took out a golden memory chip.

"Another golden memory!" Philip exclaimed in surprise.

"It's 98% compatible with me, it's practically destiny!"

"Utopia!"

As Kato Shun released his grip, the Utopia Memory fell from mid-air and automatically entered the Gaia Driver that Kato Shun wore on his waist.

A surge of blue flames erupted from the Gaia Driver, instantly engulfing Kato Shun's figure.

Just as the blue flames engulfed Jia Tou Shun, a burst of blue flames mixed with black and red lightning erupted.

But in the next moment, the erupting blue flames vanished, and a golden, scepter-wielding, steampunk-style Utopian hybrid appeared before everyone.

"Leave this to me," Skull said, stepping forward.

"Oya-san?!" Shotaro exclaimed in surprise.

"Utopia's greatest ability is to extract the mental energy of its opponents and convert it into its own, but it is ineffective against the dead," Eternal explained.

"Skull is relatively effective at countering Utopia."

"I understand. Oya-san, be careful!" Shotaro gritted his teeth, turned around and started climbing towards the top of Fuuto Tower.

The Utopia Dopant chuckled as it saw Skull blocking its way, saying, "Skull? While I may not be able to extract the spiritual power of the dead, that's not my only ability."

With that, the Utopia Hybrid tapped its cane lightly, and a hurricane appeared out of thin air in the room, blowing towards Skull.

The top of Fengdu Tower.

W and his group burst in and immediately spotted Sonozaki Wakana locked in the transparent room.

Judging from her expression, she seems to be living a pretty good life.

"Onee-chan!" Philip exclaimed with delight upon seeing Sonozaki Wakana.

"Someone come here!" Sonozaki Wakana saw W, but her face didn't show much joy; instead, she looked somewhat panicked.

"No, you are no match for him!"

"Clap clap clap!"

A round of applause rang out, and Shen Yun emerged from the shadows.

"You all have truly commendable courage; it's quite touching," Shen Yun said with a smile.

"Give me back my sister!" Philip exclaimed.

"Sure, but only if you can defeat me. If you can beat me, I will not only return your sister to you, but I will also lead the X Foundation out of Fuuto. But if you lose, Fuuto will become my testing ground and be completely under my control." Shen Yun looked at the four Kamen Riders in front of him and smiled.

"I absolutely will not allow you to do that!" Shotaro clenched his fists and roared.

"Fine, then try to stop me." A pleasant smile appeared on Shen Yun's face. He then took out the W Driver and put it on his waist.

Then, Shen Yun took out a round memory chip that resembled the Earth in appearance.

"Omniscience!" "Omnipotence!"

"Hen...Shin!"
