Tokusatsu: How come this knight drama is different?!

Does the screenwriter think that business battles should be fought that way?

Well, that's not important. As I said before, if you look at the corresponding characters in this world with the mindset of TV, then Yu Che is certain that he will crash and burn sooner or later.

How could he be content with not even getting a tenth of Ark's power for free?

He also really liked the Thousand Riders belt from the old swindler, so wouldn't it be great if he could get it for free?

Of course, Yu Che is just a comedian, not a villain. He wouldn't do something like killing Gai Amatsu and then forcibly taking the belt.

This is rather simplistic and mindless, and it doesn't help him gain popularity at all.

Although Kamen Rider is a tokusatsu series, the emphasis on plot does not prevent the evil BANDAI from selling toys. Therefore, prioritizing costumes over plot has always been a common problem in the Kamen Rider series.

Well, but we have to say something unrelated here. Toei's costumes really give people a... well, I mean, cheesy aesthetic feeling.

Actually, I had a feeling about it back when it was the Four-Zai series; the Four-Zai suit was really ugly.

After that, the mage's suit felt a bit better, the veteran's suit was decent, but when it came to Exyde...

They just did the weirdest things possible...

However, Exyde's storyline is so excellent that many fans of the Knights of the Ages are reluctantly accepting it, finally getting a good experience.

Even when Kroos appeared later, despite the black and green suit—a combination that seemed completely mismatched with the grotesque, gritty, and game-style look—the audience actually thought he looked cool!

Well, it could also be because Kroos's abilities are just too strong.

Well, in short...

The plot is important, but the costumed Yu Tetsu is even more essential.

Not to mention that Yuche can get his hands on genuine Bandai products here.

As Tianjin Gai reached into the basement and stroked Ark's metal arm, a satisfied expression appeared on his face.

“Very good. How did you come up with the idea of ​​using an alloy to build Ark’s body?” Tianjin Gai looked at You Che.

You Che was taken aback. How did I come up with that?

I don't know! Isn't that how it's always portrayed in movies?

Humanoid robots definitely have to be made of alloy. How could you possibly greet people if your robot wasn't made of alloy?!

Moreover, it must be said that Yu Che also quite likes this metallic color with its silvery-white luster.

The thought of using this on Ark made Yuche feel uneasy.

But it doesn't matter, it's all for my own plans...

Thinking of this, You Che chuckled and said to Tianjin Gai, "Don't forget my identity. In many science fiction scripts I've read, alloys are mentioned as the best material for creating bodies for humanoid machines."

Tianjin Gai nodded knowingly: "Ah, you mean your superstar status?"

Yu Che smiled and added, "I prefer the title 'Star Among Stars'."

Tianjin Gai scoffed dismissively: "I didn't see how much you liked it. For you, that title was a constraint, right? Aren't you happier without it?"

You Che's smile remained unchanged, but he was somewhat displeased inside.

For him, this title was indeed a bit of a hassle, but it wasn't without its advantages. For example, he could use this title to do things that other titles couldn't, to better integrate into this world, and to more smoothly complete his plans.

Therefore, there are indeed troubles, but there are also benefits.

It's just that it hasn't manifested itself yet.

But...

Once the benefits become apparent, the con artist will likely lose his guard.

Well, that's not important. What's important is...

This was at least an agreement between me and that damn fox. Is it really okay for you to be so arrogant?

Okay, Tianjin Gai is a natural show-off, he's always been arrogant, and You Che has long been used to it.

Suppressing his thoughts, You Che cheerfully said, "I think it's pretty good. Well, let's not think about these things anymore. Let's see if we can independently develop a mechanical life form that can carry Ark's consciousness."

You Che wrote this down in his mental notebook, preparing to scam the conman when the time was right.

Hmm, I wonder if the con artist will cry then~

Upon hearing Yu Che's words, Az nodded and made a note: "That's right, let's listen to Mr. Yu Che and finish the structure of the humanoid mechanical life form first."

"Heh, it's just a simple structure, I can handle it with ease."

As Tianjin Gai spoke, he began to work.

It has to be said that both presidents in 01 are quite eccentric.

Let's not even talk about Hiden Aruto; he has absolutely no ability to manage a company.

Tianjin Gai does have the ability, but his research capabilities are also top-notch. He should use the time he would spend managing a company to have a father…

Uh-huh, it's about developing new equipment.

Don't worry about who gets to use it; just tell me whether it was built or not.

The camera gave Yu Che a screenshot of his deep gaze, then switched to Hiden Aruto's side.

Hiden Aruto had already arrived at the basement of the Hiden Corporation.

Upon arriving here, he met Fuwa and Yua Yaiba.

All I can say right now is that Fuwa has had enough sleep and is full of energy. That's why I came to help Yua with her investigation.

As soon as the two saw Hiden Aruto approaching, Fuwa immediately asked, "How is that Kamen Rider who can fly?"

Hiden Aruto shook his head: "Didn't catch them."

Bu Po was somewhat disappointed.

Hiden Aruto gave Yaiba several macarons as a bribe, and Yaiba nodded to Hiden Aruto.

After Fuwa went out last time, he didn't even think about his promise to Yua, which made Yua's anger rise up.

However, Yua Yaiba isn't the type to bring personal feelings into her work, so Fuwa escaped unscathed.

Compared to the current president, Hiden Aruto, Fuwa seems a bit too much of a straight man.

"Is President Aruto here to investigate Ark-related information with us?" Yua asked Hiden Aruto.

Hiden Aruto shook his head: "No, I'm here to investigate Zaia Corporation."

Fuwa and Yua were completely dumbfounded.

No, you want to investigate Zaia Corporation... by investigating your own company's archives?!

Are you really not out of your mind?

Yua really wanted to ask that, but after thinking about it carefully, she chose to keep quiet.

Fupo, however, didn't think that much about it and asked his question: "Then shouldn't you go to Zaia Corporation?"

Hiden Aruto recounted his experience of the day.

After learning that Gai Amatsu could also transform into a Kamen Rider, Yua Yaiba and Fuwa were clearly shocked.

The two were even more shocked after learning that Gai Tianjin possessed the Extinction Upgrade Key, which could cause Humagears to go out of control, as well as a similar program upgrade key to Zero One.

Hiden Aruto looked at the two of them with a serious expression and said:

"I suspect... that Feidian Group may have had some cooperation with Zaiya Company."

The key to Tianjin Gai was likely a product of this collaboration, as was the Extinction Upgrade Key...

This likely indicates that Zaia Corporation and MetsubouJinrai.net are connected...

Well, these are all just guesses. Let's check and see if we can find any relevant records.

Hiden Aruto said this.

Chapter 96: Father's Demise Makes His Debut

While Hiden Aruto, Fuwa, and Yua were in the archives looking up information, the camera quickly panned to several news broadcasts.

It is also accompanied by narration.

[This station reports that Gai Ten, president of ZAIA Corporation, held a press conference yesterday...]

[Feidian Group is about to be acquired by ZIA Corporation...]

[Breaking News! ZAIA Corporation also has a Kamen Rider, and one that's even stronger...]

After a series of news broadcasts, the camera focused on the president's office at the Hiden Group.

Fu Tianjun swallowed hard, his expression incredibly interesting.

His secretary, Jesta, watched this scene with a slow, upward curve of her lips.

"Really, really, is it really possible?" Fukuzoe Jun murmured to himself.

Jesta gave a polite smile: "Oh, that's fine."

Every pore on Fu Tianjun's face seemed to be giving a performance, perfectly conveying his longing and hesitation.

Finally, Fukuda Jun encouraged himself: "I'm the vice president, I'm the vice president, there's nothing I can't do, there's nothing I can't do!"

With that, Jun Fukuzoe walked up to Aruto Hiden's seat and plopped down in it!

After sitting down, Fukuzono Jun felt incredibly comfortable, and his expression changed to one of extreme enjoyment, his face stretched out like a blooming chrysanthemum.

"Ah~ That feels so good~"

And at that moment:

"Snapped!"

Hiden Aruto rushed in with a folder in his hand, followed by Fuwa and Yua Yaiba.

Fukuda Jun was startled and immediately sprang to his feet, shouting, "I was just tired and wanted to sit down! I absolutely didn't mean to take your spot! I just wanted to rest!"

Hiden Aruto glanced at Fukuzoe Jun, not wanting to ask him such a stupid question as why he was sitting in his seat.

Fukuda Jun's intentions are obvious to everyone.

He's often just forcing himself to be funny; he's not really stupid.
