Shotaro Sakai still couldn't follow his partner's lead and could only ask with some confusion, while Philip nodded vigorously and then looked at Tsukasa Kadoya and said:
"You should also have Gensou's Knight Card, right?"
"of course."
Tsukasa Kadoya took out the Kamen Rider Joker card he had obtained when he fought the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji and handed it to Philip.
"Very good, that should be enough."
Philip excitedly took the card. After they parted ways, he began to study how to stop the 'blankness' of the source village, but this problem was really not easy. Therefore, he investigated a lot of information related to the Gaia Memory, and things related to the 'museum' were naturally of paramount importance. However, he never expected that the information he thought was useless would actually come in handy here.
"Next, we will try to reverse the 'Gaia Impact' plan."
Philip twirled the 'Joker' in his hand and said in a deep voice:
"Let the data of Gensou reappear using this knight card as a medium, old man. That should meet your requirements, right?"
“Yes, but there’s a flaw in your plan. According to what they just said, Yuanxiang doesn’t have a physical body right now. That won’t do. Without a vessel, my plan can’t continue.”
The stationmaster looked around and finally focused his gaze on the Moon Emperor Stone. He tapped it with his cane, picked it up, examined it for a moment, and then raised it high above his head. With the help of Tsukasa Kadoya and Kotaro Minami, he activated all the remaining energy in the Moon Emperor Stone and transferred it to the Desert of Time, making it a blank container.
"Alright, that's almost done. You can get started now."
The stationmaster tossed the Emperor Stone to Philip, then called for the rest of the Kamen Riders to board the Time Train and rush into the Time Desert beyond the world.
Seeing the stationmaster's decisive action, Shotaro and Philip nodded, twirling the other Rider Card that Tsukasa Kadoya had just given them—the 'Cyclone Joker Xtreme' form of Kamen Rider W. The two closed their eyes, and to the astonishment of the others, they merged into one, transforming into Kamen Rider W's final form. This form differed considerably from Gengo's 'Cyclone Joker Gold Xtreme', the most significant difference being the absence of wings and the fact that the Crystal Server in the center had become a crystal-like silver.
“Let’s begin, Philip.”
"Ah, Shotaro."
Two voices simultaneously rang out from Kamen Rider W's body. Then, the two of them began to try to connect to Earth's data. The Kamen Rider Joker card in their hands kept flashing, as if they had started searching. At the same time, the 'wind' of Fuuto swept in, enveloping the card, as if it was assisting the two detectives in their work.
In an instant, various strange phenomena appeared in the sky, and eventually there was even a green data stream running there, which was truly incredible. At this time, Kamen Rider W's body also made strange noises, as if it could not withstand the pressure and was about to collapse.
But before they failed, a black figure emerged from Kamen Rider Joker's Rider Card. Although their faces were not clearly visible, there was no doubt that it was Gengo. Immediately, Shotaro and Philip hurriedly sent Gengo's data into the King Stone and did their best to prevent the boy's data from being taken away by Earth. Only then did Shotaro and Philip realize that their junior's Gaia compatibility was actually this high.
"Good, they're done. It's our turn."
On the Time Train, the stationmaster and the conductor exchanged glances and nodded, then leaped off onto the emerging dark gold gear. At this moment, Genshin was between 'life' and 'death', so it was not impossible to pry open the power of this curse. Of course, this curse of time was exceptionally terrifying, so the two elders also needed some support from the outside world.
"It's coming!"
The stationmaster roared and tore open a rift in the Desert of Time, capturing the energy of the still-lingering Moon Emperor Stone and transferring it to himself and the train commander. With the help of this power, the two began to adjust the range of the curse's influence, focusing it solely on 'Source Village'.
Therefore, those on the Time Train saw a twisted, gilded beam of light shine down on Earth from the dark gold gear, enveloping the Moon Emperor Stone that stored Gensou's data. Then, 'time' began to twist, the Emperor Stone suddenly shattered, and the shining fragments merged with Gensou's data, serving as material to reshape Gensou's body and rewind it to the moment before it connected with Earth's memories.
Before Gensou's body had fully formed, the stationmaster and conductor hurriedly let go and returned to the Time Train, panting as they shouted:
"Quick! Destroy him!!!"
'Waaaaah~~~~'
With this command, all the combat forces at the terminal station rushed out of the Time Desert along with the still-functioning Time Train, and charged towards the dark golden gear without hesitation. Most of these people were members that Gensou had saved with 'wind' back then. Therefore, after receiving the stationmaster's notification and understanding the situation, they accepted the mission without hesitation to repay Gensou's life-saving grace.
"RiderKick!"
On the other side, led by Takeshi Hongo, Kamen Rider 2, Kamen Rider V3, Rider Man, Kamen Rider X, Kamen Rider Amazon, Kamen Rider Stronger, Kamen Rider Black, Kamen Rider Kuuga, Kamen Rider AgitΩ, Kamen Rider Ryuki, Kamen Rider Faiz, Kamen Rider Blade, Kamen Rider Hibiki, Kamen Rider Kabuto, Kamen Rider Den-O, Kamen Rider Zeronos, Kamen Rider Kiva, Kamen Rider Eternal, and Kamen Rider Decade emerged from the Time Train one after another. The attacks of twenty Kamen Riders bombarded the Dark Gold Gear without reservation, destroying it in one fell swoop, stopping the time reversal, and preventing the 'reincarnation' from happening!
Thanks to this action, Genji, who had just regained his physical body, did not have to start over, nor did the world return to what it was seventeen years ago. Seeing Genji's face regain its rosy hue, the exhausted Shotaro and Philip lay on the ground, exchanging knowing smiles. The half-baked tough guy gently patted his partner's shoulder and whispered:
"I never expected you could do this, it really surprised me."
"Hmph, I know how to do it, so... um?"
Before Philip could finish speaking, dark golden ripples appeared in the sky. At that moment, not only him and Zuo Xiangtaro, but also Wendy, Barbara, Joseph, Chen Huijie and all the other guests from the other world had dark golden spots appear on them, as if they were about to disappear.
Just then, the electric train roared down, taking all the people with it. It was clear that this event caught the stationmaster and the train conductor off guard, and even the unaffected Hayate Yagami and the still unconscious Nanoha Takamachi were taken onto the train.
"I never expected that after that dark gold gear was destroyed, the power within it would be absorbed by the Earth."
Inside the electric train, the stationmaster, looking somewhat disheveled, said helplessly in a low voice. Inside the train, all the Kamen Riders who had just attacked looked much like him, undoubtedly due to the impact of the Dark Gold Gear being destroyed.
Of course, Ryotaro Nogami and Wataru Kurenai are exceptions. When they were returning to the Time Train, they were unlucky and their heads happened to collide, knocking each other unconscious.
"That planet is currently undergoing self-timeline reorganization and self-strengthening, so we visitors from other worlds will be eliminated as alien objects, but don't worry."
The station manager noticed everyone's concerns and spoke up to explain:
"It's just for a while. 'Time' is a strange thing. What sounds complicated can actually be done in a few seconds now. So you don't need to worry about not being able to come here in the future. However... to be on the safe side, try to visit this place as little as possible in the next month. Better safe than sorry."
"By the way, stationmaster, there's something I'd like you to help analyze."
At this moment, Tsukasa Kadoya looked at Wendy and the others, and suddenly remembered something. He explained the matter of the Genji Agency's gate to the stationmaster. After listening, the stationmaster pondered for a moment, then shook his head helplessly. There was nothing he could do. There were actually many ways to cross worlds like this. He couldn't be sure what it was just because it was mentioned so suddenly. But one thing was certain: the gate should not be related to the gear. After all, the gear was a curse, and the caster would not have deliberately left Genji a chance to survive.
"It's like a dream, I never imagined I would have such an experience."
Yuto Sakurai leaned against the carriage wall, tilting his head back as he spoke slowly, while also letting out a sigh of relief. In any case, Precia, the witch who tried to overturn the timeline, had finally disappeared, the crisis at the terminal station was over, and he could at least offer some solace to those who died in this long battle.
"Yes, I originally thought what I had experienced was already outrageous."
Tsukasa Kadoya couldn't help but complain, but then he noticed that Shotaro Hidari and Philip remained completely calm, so he couldn't help but ask:
Why do you two look so calm?
"Ah... this..."
The two detectives from Fuuto exchanged a glance, then shrugged helplessly and said softly:
"Because we've seen even more outrageous things, and those were also related to Yuanxiang."
Now that the topic had been brought up, Shotaro and Philip recounted the battle with Shinichi to everyone. After listening, even the stationmaster didn't know how to look at Genji. Who would have thought that this boy had already experienced something as absurd as sorting out the timeline once?
At this moment, Takeshi Hongo recounted with great interest his past achievements fighting alongside Gengo against the data virus. Wendy also cheerfully told everyone the story of Gengo transforming into Kamen Rider 'Cyclone' to battle slimes. Chen Huijie coughed and joined the conversation. Then... how should I put it, a strange competitive spirit arose among everyone. Although they were telling stories, it felt like they were arguing about who was Gengo's best ally.
However, for the other Kamen Riders who were meeting him for the first time, their gazes towards the boy changed constantly as they listened to Genji's experiences. How to put it...
What a remarkable soldier!
"Um...you guys shouldn't talk about this yet..."
At this moment, Fate interrupted the adult rather timidly, pointing shyly to Genji's reddened earlobe and saying:
"Brother Yuanxiang seems embarrassed."
"Ahem, I didn't expect to be discovered. As expected of Fate."
Hearing this, Yuanxiang, unable to keep up the act any longer, coughed lightly, immediately opened his eyes, sat up, looked at everyone, and waved his hand with a smile, saying:
"Well, I'm back, thank you everyone."
"You're welcome. Just don't do such reckless things next time."
Tsukasa Kadoya, without any politeness, waved his hand and sighed, saying:
"Or at least give me a proper heads-up before you take any action, otherwise it'll be a real headache."
"Hahaha, things can change in an instant, I can't really say for sure about these things, haha, um!!!"
Gengo answered with a carefree laugh, scratching the back of his head, but before he could finish speaking, Tsukasa Kadoya punched him on the head in annoyance. Gengo didn't care and continued to grin foolishly.
At that moment, Hayate Yagami quietly moved her wheelchair to Gengo's side, wanting to rush into his arms. But before she could, a pair of eyes fell on her. Fate pouted slightly, hugged Gengo tightly around the waist, and placed the boy's hand on her head, clearly not backing down. Although Hayate Yagami was smiling at this, it seemed as if a dark aura was emanating from behind her. For a moment, the confrontation between the two children choked all the adults in the carriage, leaving them speechless.
Barbara quietly nudged Nanoha Takamachi, who had recovered but was still fast asleep.
Wake up! If you don't wake up soon, your brother Yuanxiang will be snatched away by other sisters!!!
However.....
Nanoha Takamachi was still asleep, and even sweetly smacked her lips, making Barbara unable to help but hold her forehead.
"Ahem, well, although it's a bit inappropriate, Miss Fate, you still have to come with me."
At that moment, the stationmaster suddenly coughed, looked at Fate, and said softly:
"Although I sympathize with your situation, you are ultimately an accomplice, so you need to come back with me to face trial at the final station."
"......"
The atmosphere in the carriage froze instantly upon hearing this. Genji's expression shifted slightly. He knew Fate had indeed made mistakes, and the stationmaster's thoughts were understandable. Even if he himself had done wrong, he had to pay the price. But... Fate didn't know the truth. To put it bluntly, she had only been used as a tool. She wasn't inherently a bad person. To make her face trial... what would become of her future?
“Sir stationmaster, how about we make a deal? Let me replace Fate.”
Yuanxiang hesitated for a moment, then looked at the stationmaster solemnly and said:
“Fate has a better and more promising future ahead of her, so let me take her place.”
“The trial at the terminal station is no child’s play, Mr. Gensho. I respect you, but that is not a reason for you to disrupt the order.”
The stationmaster gently tapped the table, answering Gensou earnestly. Indeed, Gensou knew it was his own selfish motive, but he still felt regret for the future his child was about to lose. For a moment, the atmosphere in the carriage became tense again, but immediately, Fate reached out and pulled Gensou's hand, looked up at him, and smiled, saying:
“It’s alright, Gengo-nii. This is the result Fate deserves. You have to accept punishment for doing wrong, so Fate will go with the stationmaster. Fate doesn’t want to stay by your side with such a guilty conscience, so…”
Fate reached out her hand, tears streaming down her face, and looked at Genji as she softly said:
"Can you promise Fate that you won't forget her, and that one day in the future, if Fate comes to your side again, she can pat my head again, okay?"
"...Okay, it's a deal then."
Gensou paused for a moment, then took Fate's little finger, shook it slightly, and fulfilled their promise. Suddenly, the stationmaster tapped his cane, and in an instant, he and Fate disappeared from the train car. Their movements were so swift that no one present could react. Then, the train conductor tapped the table again, sipping his coffee and speaking softly:
“Strictly speaking, that child was just being used, so... according to the procedures at the final station, you may be able to reunite soon. Don’t worry, with the stationmaster here, that child will receive a fair judgment.”
"That's right, there's no need to leave in such a hurry."
Yuanxiang looked at the conductor with some resentment. He wasn't unreasonable; he should at least be given some more time to say goodbye to Fate.
"Alright, this matter is finally over."
The train conductor looked at the crowd and said softly:
"I know you all have a lot more to say to each other, but the electric train needs maintenance now, so I'm sorry, I have to send you all back now."
"That's such a pity, it's rare for someone to come in their true form."
Hongo sighed regretfully, then reached out and hugged Gengo, whispering:
"Please take good care of yourself. We will try our best to visit you."
"I understand, seniors. Please take care of yourselves as well."
Gengo gently patted Hongo Takeshi on the back, smiled brightly at the other Showa Knights, and they reluctantly came up to hug Gengo before returning to their world along the Aurora Curtain.
"I'll come over and visit you once things have calmed down on your end."
Yusuke Godai grabbed Gengo's hand and shook it vigorously. After receiving Gengo's affirmative response, he gave a thumbs up, passed through the aurora curtain, and returned to his own world. The other Heisei Riders also exchanged a few kind words with Gengo before returning to their respective worlds. Tsukasa Kadoya sighed, patted Gengo on the shoulder, waved without saying anything, and disappeared into the aurora curtain. But even without his words, Gengo knew that it wouldn't be long before this guy would come to visit him.
"Then we'll be going too, Mr. Gensou. If you feel unwell, please remember to come to me for treatment."
