Bad luck plagues him, he refuses to become a Kamen Rider.

Sonozaki Kirihiko pursed her lips: "But the wind needs him, he can't die, if he dies..."

Sonozaki Kirihiko raised his hand and forced a smile: "Haha, once he disappears, Fuuto is finished. There's nothing I can do about it."

Everything he has was given to him by the Sonozaki family, so even if Sonozaki Kirihiko wanted to save Fuuto, he was powerless to do so.

Seeing that Sonozaki Kirihiko remained silent, Hikawa Shin extended his hand and placed it in front of Sonozaki Kirihiko's eyes.

"It's okay. As long as you do your best, no matter how it turns out, it's not a loss!"

"Although I don't understand why someone like you would join the Sonozaki family and help them do bad things, it's never too late as long as there is still light in your heart."

Looking at Hikawa Shin's determined gaze, Sonozaki Kirihiko was stunned for a moment, then his smile widened.

"You really are just like that guy. Compared to that crazed monster outside, I'd rather place my hopes on you."

As she spoke, Sonozaki Kirihiko took out a belt from behind her back.

"This is?"

Looking at the single-sided driver in front of him, Shin Hikawa asked curiously.

"The Lost Driver is something I brought from within my family. When used in conjunction with the memory, it can unleash tremendous power."

After tossing the Lost Driver into Hikawa Shin's hands, Sonozaki Kirihiko then inserted his hand into her body.

"Pfft!"

Under Hikawa Shin's astonished gaze, Sonozaki Kirihiko's hand sank directly into his body.

After some fumbling, he took out a Gaia memory chip.

"This is a rare collectible."

Sonozaki Kirihiko shook the memory in his hand and handed it to Hikawa Shin.

Glacier Letter gently pressed the memory button, and a mechanical sound rang out.

"SKull!"

"Skull memory, possessing immense power. This is a reclaimed treasure that I stole from my family."

As Sonozaki Kirihiko leaned against the stairs, his hands trembling slightly, he realized that removing the memory device had taken a toll on him.

"You must unleash its full power; the future of Fengdu rests on your shoulders."

Holding the belt and memory, Shin Hikawa looked at Kirihiko Sonozaki: "Why do you trust me so much..."

Sonozaki Kirihiko laughed and said, "You have a passionate heart. Since you are willing to protect the people of Fuuto, I think it would be unreasonable for me not to do something in return."

Everything inside 101 was observed by Sonozaki Kirihiko, who preferred the boy's actions to Yuuki's.

Hikawa Shin follows the honorable path of a knight!

Sonozaki Kirihiko never thought of Yuuki as a knight. After summarizing all of Yuuki's actions, he only thought that Yuuki was a complete madman.

A madman with principles, but not many.

"understood."

After a moment of silence, Bingchuan Xin removed his belt, his eyes shining even brighter: "I will not betray your trust. I will definitely pull this city out of the vortex."

He strode away, determined to act immediately; waiting here wouldn't save Fengdu!

"I hope I didn't do anything wrong."

As Hikawa Shinji departed, Sonozaki Kirihiko collapsed on the stairs, his forehead covered in beads of sweat.

Then, his face made two completely opposite expressions in the next second: "This city is beyond saving, Sonozaki Kirihiko!"

His left side of his face was contorted with rage as he roared Sonozaki Kirihiko's name.

The right half of his face showed Sonozaki Kirihiko's original expression, and he sneered disdainfully: "Fuuto will always be Fuuto, you can't win."

As she roared, Sonozaki Kirihiko's two sides began to fight, but all the noise was absorbed by the stairwell, and no one outside noticed anything unusual.

hall

Bingchuan Xin hurriedly walked out with his belt in his hand. Bingchuan Cheng noticed the anxious figure in the hall and raised his hand to stop him.

Where are you going?

Bingchuan Xin bit his lip: "Uncle, I need to go out and see. I want to protect those people. I can't wait here."

We can't rely on Yuuki for everything; that would be too slow for them.

"Uncle, take this belt and protect the people here."

Shinichi Hikawa unbuckled his G5 belt and tossed it to Makoto Hikawa. Makoto, bewildered, jogged away from the hotel.

What's wrong with this child?

Holding the belt, Hikawa Makoto fell silent for a moment.

Just as the group reacted in different ways, inside Fengdu...

Long black streaks streaked across the sky, eliciting continuous thunderclaps from the heavens. With red eyes, Yu Xing tried to take in almost every building below.

But inside these buildings, there were only stiff figures; he didn't see anyone who looked like Zhenxia.

"Where did they go?!"

In a fit of anger, a line of text slowly appeared on the surface of a building not far away.

If you want to know where people are, come to the museum.

Looking at the words, Youxing sneered and turned around without hesitation, heading towards the museum.

He wanted to see who had orchestrated this whole thing.

The Kuuga Watch inside his body was constantly colliding, and Yuuki felt as if a flame was about to burst out of his chest.

Chapter 143 Foundation X

"Boom!"

With a sharp crack, a figure plummeted from the sky into the museum.

Standing in the very center of the museum, Yuuki looked up, and the lights in the hall turned on, making her close her eyes uncomfortably.

When he opened his eyes again, he noticed someone on the second floor of the museum, standing there watching him.

"Did you do the hotel incident?"

The anger in his chest was still churning, and Yu Xing questioned the figure on the second floor.

"Hehehe, of course it wasn't me."

The man's voice was low and deep, with a hint of mockery in his tone.

"So easily swayed by emotions, it seems you're not as strong as those people say."

"boom!!!"

An extremely thin flame traversed the space and appeared in front of the figure in the blink of an eye, transforming into a massive pillar of fire that enveloped the man.

Standing below, Yu Xing slowly withdrew her hand, her face icy cold.

"I'm not here to listen to your nonsense. If you're here to talk nonsense to me, then you can die."

As the flames subsided, the man's figure appeared on the other side of the second floor. He coughed incessantly, quickly expelling the ash from his throat.

"Don't be in such a hurry. Don't you trust your guards?"

Mentioning Shinku made Yuuki's face even more unpleasant. Kobayashi Natsumi also appeared from behind Yuuki at some point, looking at the man with him.

Seeing that the two men's gazes were becoming increasingly dangerous, the man on the second floor also sensed the danger and his tone became more formal:

"Their current position is a bit precarious, but they are not in any life-threatening danger, so don't worry."

The man smiled and explained to the two of them, but Yu Xing didn't appreciate it.

His anger had not subsided, and he didn't want to hear another word.

The moment the man finished speaking, Youxing's figure had already disappeared from the spot.

"boom!"

Black flames exploded in the museum hall, and the scorching heat wave blew the surrounding display cases away. Gu Linxia tacitly stepped back, leaving the battlefield to Youxing.

The man's pupils contracted slightly, and his body instinctively swerved to one side.

Yu Xing's fist grazed his cheek, leaving a charred mark on his skin from the black flames.

"Wait... I think there's still a possibility we can continue our conversation."

No sooner had the man finished speaking than Youxing's second punch followed, aimed straight at his face.

The man had no choice but to cross his arms to block, but the enormous impact sent him flying from the second floor, crashing through the museum wall and landing in the plaza outside.

Yuuki leaped out of the hole, black flames dancing on his body. The rain falling from the sky evaporated into white mist before it even touched his skin.

"I told you, I'm not here to listen to your nonsense."

His voice was icy, and black flames condensed into a long sword in his palm.

The light inside the museum shone through the hole onto the man, revealing his true face.

"Let me introduce myself first. I am the highest-ranking manager of Consortium X in the Fengdu area. My first name is Shun."

Jia Tou scrambled up from the rubble, dusted himself off, and was barely hurt by You Xing.

“I think we must have something in common to talk about, instead of fighting and killing each other here.”

Jun Kato likes to talk to smart people, but Yuuki doesn't want to be a smart person—sometimes fists are more reliable than other things.

Before Kato Shun could continue speaking, Yu Xing had already rushed forward.

He slashed down with a single sword, then with a backhand motion, he took out his scepter and swiftly held it horizontally.

A gravity barrier unfolded, isolating the longsword formed from black flames. Then, the gem on the staff suddenly shone brightly, and the gravity field, like an invisible giant hand, slammed Yuuki's body into the ground.

Yu Xing's feet sank, creating a shallow pit three feet wide in the ground, but he didn't even utter a sound. Black flames erupted from his body, forcefully tearing through the constraints of gravity, and his long sword slashed towards Jia Tou Shun's throat.

Jia Toushun's pupils contracted slightly, and he leaned back to dodge. The knife grazed his jaw, leaving a charred mark.

He used the momentum to retreat, sweeping his scepter horizontally, causing ripples of gravity to spread out, creating cracks in the ground between the two of them.
