Tokusatsu: How come this knight drama is different?!

【Two: Two intelligence……】

Zero Two's figure slowly appeared, and he modified some parts of Hiden Aruto's body.

Ark watched this scene and his feet twitched slightly. He really wanted to rush up and interrupt Hiden Aruto's transformation at this moment.

Unfortunately, he himself knew that this process could not be interrupted.

more importantly……

He had just clashed with Azu using the power of Ark One, and he was far from being at full strength.

Ark was starting to feel uneasy...

Damn it... this is two against one, right?

You have no martial ethics!

but……

From a realistic perspective, it was indeed a one-on-one fight between Hiden Aruto and him...

【Three: Three Circles】

Go! Beyond!

As the data stream gradually disappeared, Kamen Rider 03 officially made his appearance.

If there's any difference between her and Izu's 03 form, it's probably in her demeanor.

In any case, Hiden and Izu are two completely different personalities.

【One two three! Kamen Rider Zero-Three! 】

Yak watched this scene and fell into deep thought.

Should I... just run away?

This situation... it feels like these two bastards don't even need to use any tricks to pin me down and beat me to a pulp...

Is there an arc?

The camera zooms in, stopping at the red circle on Hiden Aruto's belt driver that represents the three technological starting points, giving it a close-up...

Chapter 590 03 vs. Ark

Zero Three is not the enhanced form of Kamen Rider that we usually refer to.

In the Kamen Rider Reiwa Girl Gaiden, Izu transforms into Kamen Rider 03 for the first time in the main series.

There is a connection between the Kamen Rider spin-off and the main series; you could even consider this connection as a kind of alternative main series.

Therefore, 03's transformation in the spin-off can be considered as a transformation in the main series in a certain sense.

The reason Izu was able to successfully transform into Zero Two is primarily because she possesses the power of Zero Two.

Of course, there's not much to say about this. In the final episode of 01, in that world, when Yutsu and the young president had their final battle against Ark, Izu became a data projection of the satellite Zea. Therefore, it's only natural that Izu possesses the power of Zero Two.

Ark's power is indispensable for transforming from 02 to 03.

(What does "enemy and ally share the same origin" mean? Tactical lean back.jpg)

So now...

Hiden Aruto's 02 Driver, plus the Ark Driver given to him by Yutsu.

This is a perfect template for 03.

After the Girl Rider Gaiden, Izu returned to her original form, but unfortunately, she didn't save all that data. Otherwise, Hiden Aruto wouldn't still be using 02 as his final form to this day.

Okay, actually in the 01 Gaiden, Hiden Aruto has another form, um, the form related to that guy Eden.

However, Hiden Aruto could never retain that power.

After spending that long night with Yutsu, Hiden Aruto became much more open-minded about power.

So what if Ark absorbed Pegasus's power for decades?

In the end, they were still defeated.

Blindly pursuing power will only lead to one's own loss of direction.

It must be said that a junior president with such awareness is truly worthy of sitting at the same table with the seniors of the Heisei era.

After all, it's common knowledge that the Heisei Riders were truly idealistic...

Getting back to the main point, Ark fell silent as he looked at Kamen Rider 03 in front of him.

He can't beat him.

Yes, we can't beat them.

First, let's set aside Kamen Rider 03's flashy base stats and take a look at his abilities:

First: Predict the future.

This ability evolved from 02, using various data to calculate the enemy's attack patterns and ultimately form a precise future—at least that's how he described it. Whether you believe it or not...

Don't concern yourself with the Knights' affairs.

Then it's time to retaliate with double the force.

This is also inherited from the form of 02.

After being attacked, they retaliate with double the amount of damage.

However, it seems that 03 is tripled?

Well, that's not important.

In reality, both of these abilities are somewhat useless.

When facing opponents of equal skill level, these abilities are merely icing on the cake; one can defeat an opponent even without them.

However, these two abilities are insufficient when facing enemies stronger than oneself.

Doubled attacks are indeed powerful, but if your opponent knocks you down with a single blow, you'll lose the opportunity to double your attacks.

To be honest, the more practical aspect of Kamen Rider 03's form is actually Ark's related abilities.

Body data analysis is far more useful than these fancy but impractical abilities.

Well, if your opponent is stronger than you and has the same ability, then this ability is useless.

You agree, right, Zaiyin?

Hiden Aruto raised his hand, clenched it tightly, then looked up at Ark standing opposite him with a half-smile.

Yak felt a chill run down his spine.

He truly hadn't expected that that damn Hiden Aruto would resort to underhanded tactics.

How could you have become like this?!

How could you become 03?

I've studied your 02 form for so long, how could you use 03?!

To be honest, if Ark didn't know his own worth, he would have really started to morally blackmail Hiden Aruto.

After all, considering what this guy did in the past, after obtaining the data and research progress accumulated by Pegasus over decades, he launched an attack on the protagonist group without stopping.

What does it mean to lack martial ethics? This is what it means to lack martial ethics, and it can even be said to be extremely excessive.

Ok……

Nayaq also had something to say: "I'm not a good person, I can do this, but how could you do this?!"

Hiden Aruto didn't care about any of that. After looking at his palm, he decided...

Let's take down this Yak guy first.

Hiden Aruto didn't use any fancy abilities.

With a simple lift of his foot and a sprint, he arrived beside Ark.

Yak immediately dodged to the side.

The perspective then shifts to Hiden's main viewpoint.

In his eyes, as Ark moved, a complete path of movement appeared before Hiden Aruto's eyes.

With a single step, Hiden Aruto's figure vanished from the spot.

Ark was a little stunned, but his movements were not affected, so...

"Boom"

Ark's back touched Kamen Rider 03's body.

A bad feeling crept into Ark's heart, and he slowly turned his head to look at the other person.

"Hehe." Hiden Aruto's soft laughter came from within 03's facial armor.

The next second:

"Snapped"

Hiden Aruto slapped him across the face.

"I've wanted to do this for so long!"

There was an undeniable sense of comfort in Hiden's voice.

As Hiden Aruto said, from Hiden Aruto's perspective, the things Ark did were so bad that he really wanted to slap that bastard to death.

Now, with the abilities of Kamen Rider 03, Hiden Aruto can finally do it.

(Hiden Aruto: I'll just go straight up and slap him!)

A certain Odin Knight: ? Do you also want to dance?

After delivering the slap, Hiden Aruto immediately withdrew. To Hiden Aruto at that moment, Ark's counterattack seemed so slow.

Of course, this is mainly because Ark's actions at this moment can be seen in advance by Hiden Aruto.

If Hiden Aruto, with such abilities, couldn't even pin Ark to the ground and beat him to a pulp, then he'd be a bit too weak.
