"You are not allowed to go anywhere except this carriage, or you will lose your life. Don't blame me for not warning you."
"I understand, I won't cause you any trouble."
Fueki Koyomi nodded obediently, and Soma Haruto gently patted her head before following Sakurai Yuuto off the train.
"Amanokawa High School? Is this the location of the lock point?"
Outside the train, Yuanxiang looked at the school not far away and said softly:
"This is a bit troublesome. With so many students, if a fight breaks out, someone is bound to get hurt. Let me cause some trouble first and scare them all away from the school."
No, there's no need to do that.
Yuto Sakurai stopped Gengo and looked at the academy, saying:
"Yuanxiang, don't be so rigid about the concept of a lock point. It doesn't just refer to a specific place; it could also be a person. By the way, Yuanxiang..."
Abruptly, after shouting, Yuto Sakurai fell into an inexplicable silence, as if struggling with something. Finally, he shook his head and said softly:
"It's nothing, it's not that serious yet. Just pretend I didn't say anything. Let's go see if the person we're looking for is at school right now."
Yuto Sakurai's behavior was strange, and Gengo vaguely sensed that it might be related to his own body. However, since Yuto didn't want to talk about it, Gengo didn't press him for details. He followed Yuto and sneaked into the school, arriving at a club activity room. The club's name was 'Kamen Rider Club'.
"This is really something, to have such a name."
Looking at the decorations in the club room, Gengo subconsciously said, "When Takamachi Nanoha first heard that the junior high school was going to establish a club related to Kamen Rider, she was very interested and declared that she would join it in the future. However, the founder of the junior high school withdrew the application because he didn't want to leave too many embarrassing memories of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome). This made Takamachi Nanoha very regretful. Hmm... take a picture and show it to Nanoha later."
"You seem to know this place very well."
At that moment, Haruto Soma casually picked up a small trinket from the table and asked Yuto Sakurai:
Have you ever dealt with the Kamen Riders here?
"No, I only noticed this place when I was investigating this matter. Before that, I was in a hurry, so I just gathered some information and rushed to the next time point."
After surveying the activity room and finding nothing of note, Yuto Sakurai walked out, explaining the new Kamen Rider to Gengo and the other man.
Kamen Rider Fourze is a Kamen Rider who can utilize unknown energy from the universe and fight in space. The user, Gentaro Kisaragi, is a Bad Boy with a strong sense of justice who declares that he will become "a friend to the students and everyone at the academy," so he is not a difficult person to get along with.
During Yuto Sakurai's investigation, he discovered that the existence of 'Gentaro Kisaragi' was closely linked to the 'connection point' plan. As long as the connection was found out and broken, a gap could be opened in the already closed loop of 'time'.
? !
Suddenly, Genji and the others stopped in their tracks, unhesitatingly taking out their transformation belts. Almost simultaneously, the space around them distorted, and one after another, pterosaur monsters wielding memory modules emerged. This time, Genji clearly heard the name of these memory modules—"Memory."
Memory? I've never seen a memory type before, I don't know what its effects are.
Gengo couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, but his hands moved without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, the three Kamen Riders had transformed. Sakurai Yuto, in his Altair Form, held a crossbow and shouted with great momentum:
"Let me make this clear from the start: I am extremely strong!"
Haruto Misaki expertly flashed his magician's ring with a backhand flick, then coldly glanced at the strange man:
"Come on, it's Showtime."
"Tuo!"
Beside them, a dark shadow leaped high into the air and fell like a meteorite. In an instant, a terrifying energy shockwave spread out, sweeping away the battlefield in the blink of an eye. The monsters didn't even have time to utter a wail before they turned into Desire Coins. Genji switched to his 'Cyclone' form and used "Cyclone! Maximum Drive!" to gather the Desire Coins in the air, shattering them along with the magic seal that fell from the sky.
Is there no follow-up? It doesn't seem like an assassin sent by the enemy after they discovered our operation. Was it a pre-set trap? Or was there some tactic I missed?
After completing this fluid and skillful attack, Genji let out a soft breath, analyzing the situation while keeping an eye out for any remaining survivors or exploitable clues. Behind him, Sakurai Yuto and Soma Haruto exchanged a glance and silently put away their respective poses...
228 Terrifying Dinosaurs
"It seems this really isn't targeting us... What's wrong with you all? Why do you have those expressions?"
After confirming that there were no other enemies around, Gengo turned around as he spoke, only to see the somewhat stiff expressions on the faces of Sakurai Yuto and Soma Haruto, who had just transformed. Gengo, whose mind was entirely focused on the monster, didn't quite catch on and instinctively asked a question.
The two couldn't bring themselves to admit that they didn't get to fight the monsters because of posing. Gengo didn't dwell on the issue either, but instead offered his own theory: that the Kamen Riders might be considered pre-programmed enemies, which was why the monsters kept popping up.
"That's actually a pretty good idea."
Yuto Sakurai nodded in agreement and said:
"No wonder he's a detective; his mind is really sharp."
"No, no, no, it's just based on experience."
Indeed, if someone had ever been chased and attacked by over a hundred gecko monsters, they would have come to the same conclusion. Genji still remembers the scene when he was washing his face and the gecko in the mirror suddenly turned into a monster clone. To be honest, it was fortunate that the clone had no intelligence and did not share consciousness with the original, otherwise, Kamen Rider Joker of Fuuto would probably be dead long ago.
"Your enemies are quite diverse..."
Yuto Sakurai clearly realized something from the words, and looked at Gengo with a complicated expression, secretly thinking that if this boy's miraculous experience were to happen to others, how many could endure it?
"Wait, if we go by what Gensato said..."
As Haruto Misaki thought about it, he said:
"The one we're looking for, Gentaro Kisaragi, is also a Kamen Rider, so there should be monsters appearing on his side as well. In that case... let me give it a try."
Haruto Soma quickly took out a new magician's ring and activated it on his waist driver. As a pale yellow magic circle appeared, it turned into light and entered the broken Desire Coin. The fragment, imbued with magic, seemed to come alive, floated up, and flew eastward. Genji and the other two chased after it without hesitation.
.......
"Damn it, let go of me!!"
On the other side, Kamen Rider Fourze, transformed from Gentaro Kisaragi, was desperately attacking the shrinking seal in front of him with his Rocket Punch. Just moments after defeating the monsters, this inexplicable attack suddenly descended from the sky. Just as he was about to be hit, his friend Ryusei Sakuta pushed him out of the way. While he was saved, Ryusei was trapped inside. He wanted to rescue him, but the energy was simply too much…
"Get out of the way!"
Just then, Gentaro Kisaragi suddenly heard a loud shout from behind him. The powerful aura made him instinctively move aside. Then, black lightning flashed, and the energy sealing Sakuta Meteor instantly broke. At the same time, Gengo couldn't help but let out a muffled groan. Fortunately, the seal on Sakuta Meteor had not yet officially begun, and the 'branch' that Gengo had to endure was not strong.
At the same time, due to the close proximity, the energy of the Rider Kick also affected Gentaro Kisaragi. He let out a cry, rolled on the ground, and deactivated his transformation. He coughed twice and hurriedly got up to check on Ryusei Sakuta's condition. Fortunately, although the transformation was over and he was stunned, at least he was out of danger. Gentaro Kisaragi breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the dark figure in front of him, and asked softly:
"Are you... a Kamen Rider?"
"You're Gentaro Kisaragi, right?"
Two voices of doubt rang out simultaneously. Sakurai Yuto looked at the boy with the pompadour hairstyle in front of him and waved his hand to interrupt his unspoken question, saying:
"No need to ask. We are all Kamen Riders. We came here specifically to find you. Although you are probably confused right now, just know that you are now a key figure in a major event. Okay, tell me quickly, what strange things or people have you encountered recently?"
Yuto Sakurai's rapid-fire words stunned Gentaro Kisaragi. After hearing the last sentence, Gentaro Kisaragi subconsciously turned his head to his left, where a cute girl was standing. She was also wearing the uniform of Amanokawa High School, but he knew very well that the girl was not his classmate. Even her appearance and name were copied.
"Watch out! This guy isn't human!"
Like lightning, a figure appeared before Gentaro Kisaragi. Gengo shielded all the Kamen Rider Club students behind him and spoke in a low voice to his two companions:
"She has a powerful energy aura; she's no ordinary person. Yuuto, is she?"
"What...what are you trying to do?!"
At that moment, Gentaro Kisaragi realized something and shoved Gengo, trying to rush to the girl's side. However, he couldn't move him and was instead grabbed by Gengo. Even so, he struggled and shouted:
“Nadeshiko is not a bad person. It has nothing to do with whether she is human or not. You can’t harm her. Everyone can be her friend, just like I am!”
“Nadeshiko, my friend.”
Upon seeing Gentaro Kisaragi captured, the creature posing as Nadeshiko Misaki hurriedly ran towards Gengo. Haruto Soma's heart tightened, and he instinctively put on his magician's ring. However, Yuto Sakurai shook his head slightly, indicating that it was alright. After all, while 'Nadeshiko Misaki' was strong, it was still questionable whether she could withstand a single punch from Gengo. In that brief moment, Nadeshiko Misaki had already reached Gengo's side. She looked at Gentaro Kisaragi, then at Gengo, and pointed at herself with a childlike smile, repeating:
"Nadeshiko, my friend."
"This has nothing to do with whether or not they are friends."
Considering that this student with the pompadour was also a Kamen Rider, Gengo patiently spoke to him softly:
“If it’s not necessary, we won’t make any unnecessary moves, so please calm down. Of course, I was quite rude, and you have reason to be angry. I will explain the whole story to you, but before that… Yuuto!”
"Ah, it's this Misaki Nadeshiko."
Yuto Sakurai nodded after opening the Paradox System terminal. He had previously been worried about the 'paradox' being discovered and the burden it would place on the Zero Train, so he had not taken the initiative to trigger the system. But now that he had found the exact 'lock point,' the operation plan had officially begun.
"Although we don't know who Misaki Nadeshiko is, there is no doubt that she is an important part of Dr. X's plan. Once we lock onto her, the time loop here will have a loophole."
"Hey, what exactly do you mean? Are you treating Nadeshiko like an object, doing whatever you want with her?!"
Gentaro Kisaragi roared and screamed like a man possessed, his blood boiling. He even forgot to transform and attacked Gengo with his fists raised. He also hurriedly told Misaki Nadeshiko to leave quickly, completely unaware of the subtle change in Gengo's gaze towards them. Sensing that he had realized something, Gengo suppressed the words he wanted to say to explain. He wanted to try to add fuel to the fire, but just then, a strange phenomenon occurred.
This time, it wasn't a magic circle, but a giant shadow resembling an ancient dinosaur that appeared out of thin air. A terrifying desire for destruction immediately pressed down on everyone present, and at that moment, even the air seemed to freeze.
229 Dinosaur Combo
The terrifying shadow of the dinosaur seemed to be the sole ruler of this world. In that instant, Gentaro Kisaragi was stunned and stood there dumbfounded. The almost pure destructive desire in that face made him feel a chill in his heart, as if even his body had become stiff because of it.
Wait, this isn't just my imagination.
Gentaro Kisaragi was suddenly astonished to find a thin layer of frost on his palm. He instinctively exclaimed in surprise, and the white mist he exhaled made him even more stunned. After all, it was the hottest time of summer, and the dinosaur's projection here had actually changed the weather.
'Heat!'
"Heat! Maximum Drive!"
Yuanxiang naturally noticed the temperature change, and if this trend continued, the area would probably turn into a bitterly cold place like Antarctica. So he did not hesitate to use the completely opposite power.
However, just as Gengo inserted the 'Heat' memory into the Lost Driver and activated his ultimate power, everyone clearly saw that Gengo's left hand, along with his armor, became transparent. Then, the data of 'Heat' within it transformed into the purest flame, which suddenly burst forth along with Gengo's movement. In an instant, the extreme cold was dispelled, and a wave of heat rolled in. Those standing behind Gengo couldn't help but feel a burning pain on their skin.
Has it really come to this?
The dragon's shadow vanished under the meteor-like attack, but Genji knew very well that it wasn't thanks to "Heat! Maximum Drive!", but rather the "Xtreme" bonus brought about by "Blankness" that gave this finishing move such terrifying power.
However, he hadn't actively used his ultimate power just now. He just wanted to use more force so that if he failed in one strike, the enemy wouldn't be able to find an opening. It was with this thought in mind that the power of 'Xtreme' emerged on its own, cooperating with his actions.
Undoubtedly, this means that the compatibility between 'Xtreme' and himself is constantly improving in one battle after another. Moreover, at this point, Genji also vaguely realized that as he unleashed the potential of this body, the more intense the battle, the easier it was for him to reach the realm of 'Xtreme', just like just now, when he could easily cross that threshold without even realizing it.
"Yuanxiang, that dinosaur projection is the enemy's power to ensure the integrity of the time loop. As long as we defeat it from both sides at the same time, we can open a gap!"
At this moment, Yuto Sakurai hurriedly told Gengo about the information he had discovered, but this confused Haruto Soma. After all, Gengo had just defeated the dinosaur projection, so how could he... um?!
Before Haruto could even ask a question, he suddenly realized that the temperature in the world was dropping again. Looking up, he saw that terrifying projection reappear in front of them.
"So that's how it is. As long as we interventionists exist, this guy will keep regenerating?"
Upon seeing this, Gensou understood the underlying principle. He flicked his hand and looked at Gentaro Kisaragi beside him, saying:
"Now you understand, right? Your lover has become someone else's target. If you try to protect her, you'll attract enemies like this. So, Gentaro, can you lend us a hand?"
"Ugh, this is getting more and more complicated."
Still completely bewildered, Gentaro Kisaragi scratched his head in frustration, but he had already placed the transformation device on his waist, skillfully pressed the switch, and said in a deep voice:
"But I will not allow anyone to harm my comrades!"
