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

Rin Ichijo was completely exhausted, lying on the ground, too lazy to even move a finger.

Noticing Yuuki's gaze, Rin Ichijo simply turned her body slightly to the side without saying a word, yet a sense of trust quietly formed among them.

The sight of the group looking so exhausted drew the attention of those they had rescued.

They squatted down in twos and threes around Youxing and the others. Some handed them water from who-knows-where, some took off their coats and draped them over their shoulders, and others gently patted their shoulders and said comforting words.

The concern shown by everyone warmed their hearts, but they simply didn't have the energy to respond, and could only nod slightly to express their feelings.

Meanwhile, Yuto Sakurai was bound hand and foot and left in a room. The ropes were tied so tightly that he looked like a bloated silkworm cocoon.

When he woke up, he was still a little dizzy, and the residual toxins from the Octopus Demon God had left him in a daze for a while.

When he finally came to his senses and realized his situation, he tried to break free of the rope, but it was so tight that he could hardly move at all.

"Who did this?!"

He wriggled a few times, his sideways body making a slight movement on the ground, but no one paid any attention.

All eyes were on the hero who saved them.

"Thankfully, everyone was rescued."

Yuto Sakurai showed no jealousy whatsoever; instead, his tone was more relaxed.

Although he used some clever tricks in this incident, he is still a good person at heart.

As he thought about it, he felt the rope tighten even more, so he struggled again, but the rope remained motionless and instead tightened around him even more.

So he took a deep breath and raised his voice slightly: "Can you please untie me first? I'm being strangled to death!"

But still no one paid any attention to him. Seeing this, Yuto Sakurai remained silent for two seconds, then rolled to the side with force.

After he made a muffled thud, someone finally looked at him.

A little boy tugged at his mother's clothes, pointed at the writhing figure in the corner and said something. The woman glanced back, then turned back and patted her child's head.

"That was a villain who was defeated by the heroes, so it's only right that he was tied up."

Yuto Sakurai: "…………"

How did I become a bad person? What did I do?

As he looked on in confusion, Yuuki glanced at him and gestured towards Ichijou Rin, who was standing nearby, with her chin raised, "Why is he tied up?"

Rin Ichijo opened his eyes and followed his gaze, looking somewhat puzzled. His gaze shifted and finally landed on Momotaros and the others.

Momotaros opened her eyes and glanced at Sakurai Yuto: "Oh, I almost forgot about him."

The group exchanged glances. Yuuki leaned against the wall and stood up. He knelt down next to Sakurai Yuto and untied the rope. "Are you alright?"

As soon as the rope loosened, Yuto Sakurai let out a long breath. Then, with a dark expression, he struggled a few times to remove the remaining rope loops from his shoulders. When he sat up, his face was clearly displeased, but when he saw the five people looking so exhausted that they seemed about to collapse at any moment, he swallowed his anger back.

He dusted himself off, somewhat speechless: "If I lie here for another half hour, you'll be collecting my corpse."

After saying that, he paused and then said, "No, it seems you don't even have the strength to collect my body."

These words made Yu Xing and the others laugh awkwardly, while the others cast curious glances at them.

Yuuto Sakurai ignored the others and instead took out several intact syringes from his pocket and placed them in front of Yuuki.

"The reason why Kintalos was able to provide support so quickly is because he used my medicine, which can rapidly repair physical damage, but at the cost of consuming lifespan."

After saying that, Yuuto Sakurai looked at Yuuki: "Given your current condition, it would take you at least three to five days to recover naturally, but Another Den-O won't give you that much time."

If they want to win, they have to risk their lives now.

Understanding Sakurai Yuto's meaning, Yuuki almost hesitated, picked up a syringe from the ground, and injected it into his body.

After the medicine entered his body, it quickly took effect. Yu Xing felt that time around him began to stretch out infinitely. When the surroundings returned to normal, the weakness in his body completely disappeared.

Seeing that the effect was so good, Taotaros was the second one to struggle over and snatch a syringe.

"I don't want to be carried away half-dead. I'm going to rescue Lontaros and the others from that guy."

"We all have people we want to protect."

Momotaros's words resonated with everyone, and they all took the syringes and injected themselves without hesitation.

Under the influence of the medicine, they recovered very quickly, so quickly that Rin was stunned.

"Stop looking."

Seeing Rin's condition, Yuuki walked over and reached out her hand to him: "You are human, you can't use this kind of potion, you will die if you use it, we will carry you."

Rin paused for a moment, then shook her head: "I can walk by myself."

He tried to stand up while holding onto the wall, but his knees suddenly buckled and he almost fell.

Yu Xing reacted quickly, grabbing his arm and lifting him onto her back without a word.

"Stop being stubborn, let's go."

Momotaros walked forward: "That tunnel won't stop him. That guy will catch up sooner or later."

Without further delay, Yuuki carried Rin on his back and led the rest of the group quickly through the experimental area on the first basement level.

As they passed through the last door and returned to the ground, the evening breeze, carrying the warmth of the ground, hit them, drawing their attention.

"The outside world is still more comfortable to look at."

"Momotaros remarked."

Soon, one by one, the people they had rescued emerged from the passageway.

Standing on the street, most people feel a sense of disorientation as they look at the people coming and going, as if their experience underground is completely unreal.

"Everyone, leave as soon as possible. Once you're home, don't bring up what happened here. Just live your lives peacefully!"

Yuuki stood at the front and clapped his hands to make sure everyone's attention was on him. Then he looked at everyone and said.

"Thank you for saving my life."

Upon hearing Yuuki's words, people stepped forward one by one, bowed deeply to him, and then quickly left. If they could, they never wanted to recall their experiences underground again.

When the mother and daughter reached Yuxing, Yuxing smiled and said, "Take good care of the child when you get back."

The mother and daughter nodded repeatedly, their eyes filled with countless tears and gratitude.

The street quieted down only after the last person's figure disappeared around the corner.

Yuuki gently put Rin down so he could lean on her shoulder, then turned to look at the young figure standing a few steps away.

Yuto Sakurai stood with his hands in the pockets of his white coat, his back to them, gazing up at the lights atop Tokyo Tower in the distance, his profile revealing no emotion.

"Sakurai Yuto, I think you should tell us about yourself."

Yuuki spoke, her voice not loud, but loud enough for Sakurai Yuto to hear clearly: "What is your real purpose? What exactly do you want to do?"

Yuto Sakurai remained silent for a long time.

It wasn't until the evening breeze ruffled the hem of his white coat that he slowly turned around, his gaze calmly falling on Youxing, his face carrying a complex and indescribable expression.

"My purpose has never changed from the beginning."

He spoke slowly, a hint of hatred in his expression: "I want to lure out the person behind Another Electro. He destroyed everything!"

Seeing the confusion in their eyes, Yuto Sakurai said wearily, "There are some things that even if I tell you, you will never understand."

"You need to tell us what it is. I'm sure we're not pushovers, especially this guy."

Momotaros patted Yuuki on the shoulder, quite ostentatiously.

"Don't let his struggle here fool you, if he went outside, that Another Den-O would probably beat him to death."

Yuto Sakurai smiled helplessly; he could certainly see the immense power Yuuki possessed.

"But that doesn't solve the problem right now, does it?"

As he spoke, Yuto Sakurai became somewhat melancholy.

"Another Den-O itself cannot cause such a huge distortion in spacetime, to the point that the entire history of Den-O has disappeared into the history of Kamen Riders. Someone is manipulating everything behind the scenes."

After he finished speaking, he paused and then explained the reason for the incident.

"I originally wanted you to clash with Another Den-O to force out the person behind it all, but obviously, I failed."

Even when he handed the watch over to Yuuki, he still couldn't stop their defeat.

These words made Yuuki and the others ponder. After a moment, Yuuki raised his head and said, "Actually, it doesn't have to be that complicated. After we deal with Another Den-O and the restrictions here are lifted, I have many ways to find the person behind it all."

Just kidding, Yu Xing has seen it all. His enemies outside are much stronger than those here.

Yuto Sakurai sighed and could only nod; he didn't have any better ideas at the moment.

But he quickly looked up at Yuuki and the others: "Speaking of defeating Another Den-O, that is indeed a good way, but we don't have that kind of strength right now."

These words caused Yuuki and the others to pause slightly. Sakurai Yuto was telling the truth; their five-person unity could not be maintained for long, and they would be defeated once the stalemate continued.

"So I think you need to do something."

Seeing the expressions on their faces, Yuto Sakurai held up one finger.

"What is it?"

Momotaros asked, and Sakurai Yuto immediately replied, "Training."

"train?!"

"Special training!"

Chapter 183 Special Training

The next day, Yuto Sakurai led a few people to an abandoned warehouse.

"This is my secret base, come in."

Looking at the weathered exterior walls in front of him, Momotaros scratched his face: "Isn't this place a bit too rudimentary?"

“A secret base naturally needs to be well hidden.”

Yuto Sakurai took a deep breath, too lazy to argue with Momotaros, this half-idiot.
