Ultraman: I am really just a human.

Chapter 121 Clown Kenzaki

"Swish, swish, swish!"

A week has passed in the blink of an eye.

Xia Chuan, holding an umbrella, went downstairs and walked into Leo's House in the gray rain.

After that, the Plum Blossom Knight completely disappeared. Tiger Q, who had agreed to the tomboy's request, could only take over the taiyaki shop and inherit the tomboy Hibino family legacy after he had dealt with all the lower-level undead creatures.

Are there any other guests today?

Xia Chuan folded up his umbrella and put it in the basket by the door, only to find the shop empty.

"After all, this rain has been falling since this morning." The boss handed Xia Chuan a cup of tea and turned on the old TV in the corner.

"Another omelet rice, please. I didn't cook today."

Xia Chuan sat down alone at the counter, glanced at the boss who went into the kitchen, and reached out to take out all the sealed cards and spread them out on the table.

The spade, diamond, and club cards were sorted and stored separately, leaving only the joker card and 11 hearts on the table.

The missing 6 of Hearts Eagle was finally captured by Tiger Q two days ago.

The remaining 9 hearts should be at the research institute, but Xia Chuan wasn't in a hurry. He just had Tiger Q capture other lower-level undead creatures first.

It was just something he did casually, but it helped prevent many tragedies from happening.

As for whether it would cause dissatisfaction among the knights, that was none of his concern.

Having many lice doesn't cause itching.

If he cared about these things, he wouldn't have done it openly.

And the one being resented was Kalis.

He's not the real Kalis.

"Today's news: Kamen Rider Blade's whereabouts are still unknown..."

"Kenzaki Kazuma, a former member of the Longblade Team, recently defected from the team. It is rumored that this may be related to Kalis and the undead..."

Xia Chuan paused slightly, put away all the cards, and turned to look at the image of Kenzaki Kazuma that was displayed on the TV.

Is he wanted by the police?

What exactly did Kenzaki do? Wasn't he highly regarded by the Longblade Squad before?

"Boom!"

A construction site shrouded in thunderstorms.

Kenzaki Kazuma cleaved away a charging bison undead creature with a single blow amidst the torrential rain.

The blank card absorbed the seal, turned into the 8 of spades, and flew back on its own, but was not caught by Kenzaki.

The card lost its traction and fell to the ground, floating in the puddle and constantly being washed by water droplets.

"Well!"

Kenzaki Kazuma seemed to be in great pain. As he was about to bend down to pick up the cards, he suddenly knelt down in the rain with a thud.

"My body..."

After enduring the violent mental onslaught, Kenzaki Kazuma broke free of his transformation and painfully raised his trembling hands.

After the failed operation against Kalis a few days ago, Captain Shimura suddenly became impatient and kept pushing him to fight.

even……

"Why would you do something like this, Captain Shimura!"

Kenzaki Kazuma clenched his fists tightly, suppressing his sobs in the pouring rain.

"Why release undead creatures? Was it just to connect to the Knight World?! You're the one who truly betrayed us, Captain!! Tell me—!"

"Swish!"

The rain continued, and in the blink of an eye, Kenzaki Kazuma was completely soaked. No one at the construction site could answer him.

It seemed as if there was no place for him in this world anymore.

Suddenly, Kenzaki Kazuma saw Natsukawa's image in his mind.

The only person I can truly trust is my mentor.

Thinking of this, Kenzaki Kazuma gritted his teeth, grabbed the 8 of Spades, stumbled to his feet, and left the construction site.

"This won't end like this! I will never let you get away with this!"

"The rain is getting heavier again."

After finishing his omelet rice, Xia Chuan looked outside the shop.

Rain poured down the eaves, and several red candle lanterns hanging at the entrance were also wet by the rain, so the owner had to use a pole to take them down.

Without light, the streets appeared even darker in the rain.

Just then, a figure with a wet coat on his head ran past. He subconsciously looked into the store, paused for a moment when he saw Xia Chuan, and then exclaimed in surprise.

"God's Eternal Mentor!"

"Kensaki?"

Xia Chuan recognized the person.

It's Kenzaki Kazuma, who was just mentioned on TV.

"What are you doing...?"

"It's Captain Shimura!!"

Kenzaki Kazuma glanced at the shop owner who came in to get a towel with a sullen face.

"The captain betrayed us. He wanted to connect with another knight world and start a true ultimate battle. That bastard was the one who released the undead!"

"Calm down first."

With a flicker of emotion in his eyes, Xia Chuan poured Kenzaki Kazuma a cup of hot water.

He was also very curious about the truth behind the release of the undead.

Especially Junichi Shimura, who, despite being just a human, behaves even more strangely than undead creatures, as if he is hiding some secret that cannot be revealed.

He had originally planned to investigate after dealing with all the lower-level undead creatures.

"Wipe yourself off, don't catch a cold." The boss handed Kenzaki Kazuma a clean towel, seemingly knowing that Kenzaki had something to say, and then went back to the kitchen.

"Mentor, my body has likely been ruined by him too!"

After catching his breath, Kenzaki Kazuma still didn't loosen his clenched fist, his eyes filled with anger and regret.

"I can feel that there's another version of myself inside me, wanting to destroy everything. The higher the fusion coefficient, the stronger this feeling becomes."

"That Shimura guy said I'm awakening as the Joker, and that I'll become the strongest undead creature, surpassing even Kalis! Damn it!"

"How could I become an undead creature?!"

Kenzaki Kazuma's eyes reddened.

"I became a Kamen Rider to eliminate these monsters!"

Xia Chuan didn't know what to say, so he could only listen in silence.

Kenzaki Kazuma does have the potential to become a clown, but logically speaking, he shouldn't start becoming a clown so early, because Kenzaki hasn't even collected the Spade deck yet, has fused very few undead creatures, and hasn't fused many times.

The protagonist in "Blade" only starts to lose control after fusing 13 spade cards.

I don't know what Junichi Shimura did.

Or is it that Kenzaki Kazuma in this world is inherently prone to becoming a clown?

"What is your fusion coefficient now?" Xia Chuan asked, looking up.

"It's at 97, and it's still rising. It will rise as long as there's a battle."

Kenzaki Kazuma gave a bitter smile.

"This is the power I've always dreamed of, but now I don't want it at all. However, I don't want to run away anymore. It has to come to an end. I'm going to meet Captain Shimura again and put an end to all of this!"

After a pause, Kenzaki Kazuma took out all the cards except the spade card from his pocket.

A diamond-themed deck and a camel-heart card.

"This is something I brought from the research institute. I'm here today hoping you, my supervisor, can keep it safe."

Kenzaki Kazuma separated the heart card, his expression slightly melancholy.

"If you have the chance, please give this heart card to Kalis. Consider it something I owe him. Maybe he didn't really save me back then, but it doesn't matter to me. Besides, he also gave me a few spade cards."

"Nine of Hearts?"

Xia Chuan picked up the camel card and glanced at Kenzaki Kazuma again.

The red heart 9 camel is used to restore health.

He was collecting the last heart card.

"Even now, you might not be a match for Shimura Junichi," Natsukawa warned. "In the end, you might not be able to solve the problem at all."

"I'm ready."

Kenzaki Kazuma said firmly.

"Professor, please stay at the school for now and don't go out. You must take good care of yourself."

This part is indeed a bit slow, let's skip some of the extra plot.
