"What a wondrous power."
Badan witnessed Yuanxiang's actions firsthand, without offering any attempt to interfere. Finally, he spoke with great interest:
"Even when restrained, you can still produce such an effect. You always manage to come up with some new tricks, but it still can't change your fate!"
Countless points of light lit up from Badana's deformed head, followed by a barrage of crimson beams. Under this onslaught, the Kamen Riders tried their best to dodge and deflect the beams with their weapons, but there was still a restraining force within these beams. Kouta Kazunari and Kaito Kamen Rider did their best to assist the other Riders, but they were still too small in the face of this seemingly endless attack.
'cyclone·xtreme'
Gengo solemnly switched forms, summoning a turquoise gale. However, the same situation that 'Luna' encountered also occurred with 'Cyclone'. Regardless of its power, under the enemy's special attack attribute, it only retained the 'basic framework' obtained from the Book of Omnipotence and Omniscience. Gengo gritted his teeth and desperately intercepted all the attacks. But after this round of attacks ended, he couldn't help but let out some panting sounds. If someone were standing next to him at this moment, they could faintly hear his rapid heartbeat.
No, this can't go on. It's definitely not a good thing.
Yuanxiang breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, the power of Batan had already enveloped the entire city of Sawame, and the retreat route had been blocked. The only thing left was a battle to the death, and only one side could leave this hellish battlefield alive.
"Die, die, die!"
Although Gengo wanted to rest, Bataan clearly wouldn't give the enemy a chance. Attacks came one after another, and the undead dinosaurs followed one after another. Ominous dark clouds gathered in the sky, with terrifying black lightning running through them. The Kamen Riders formed a formation and used each other's strength to maintain their position and prevent being overwhelmed by Bataan's offensive, but that was all they could do.
Meanwhile, Gengo received special attention from the army of the dead. Kouta Kazuha and Kaito Kamen Rider planned to come and help, but Gengo immediately sent them aside, saying that given their strength, coming to his side would be suicide.
'fang·fang'
With a cold face, Gengo inserted the pale memory into the Dual Drive, intending to use the power of void destruction to engulf all the surrounding enemies. However, to his surprise, just after he cleared out the surrounding enemies, the next second, he felt a strange tremor in his body. A deep purple aura began to surge on his armor. This was not a sneak attack from Bataan, but rather the energy of the undigested Dinosaur Core Medals, which began to surge violently into Gengo's body due to the suppression of 'Fang's' power.
This is not a good thing. Although the power of the Dinosaur Core Medal is not present in Tsukasa Kadoya's Rider Card, that power is too easy to cause desires to run rampant. If he acts recklessly in such a battle, not to mention his own body, he might as well die quickly.
That leaves only one option.
Gengo glanced at the 'joker' he had subconsciously taken out, then silently put it back. No matter what kind of power this memory had shown in his hands, it was ultimately the same power attribute as his senior, Shotaro Hidari, and he had also given his Rider Card to Tsukasa Kadoya before, so he figured the power of this memory would be countered.
"Oh?"
At this moment, Badan looked at Gensou with surprise. In the face of this situation, he actually took the initiative to deactivate his transformation. Although he hoped that the little guy was scared out of his wits and gave up resisting, he knew that such a thing was impossible without even thinking about it. So without thinking, he threw a terrifying ball of plasma at him, wanting to wipe Gensou and the land around him away.
In that instant, a holy light suddenly shone, flashing by in the blink of an eye, and the deep red plasma ball was also cut in two in mid-air, exploding with a bang.
This scene was caused by the sword of light that suddenly appeared in Gengo's hand. The boy took a deep breath, using his own soul as power, 'blankness' as a medium, and his nascent heart as the source, unleashing the [Holy Light] that Yuri had placed within his body. In an instant, a radiant light enveloped Gengo. Gengo took another deep breath, raised his arm, and swung the sword. The phantom of the holy sword of light began to show signs of solidification. At the same time, the sound effect that should have been triggered by the holy sword and the driver faintly echoed in everyone's ears—
Who is the shining sword?
"This power... seems quite formidable."
Looking at the radiant source of the land, Kouta Kazuha couldn't help but whisper, "If the boy were to be called a savior from mythology, few would doubt it. The holy light emanating from him alone is enough to deter the souls of the dead from approaching, or they would melt away like ice."
"Hmph, do you really think that by unleashing new power you can contend with me!"
Badan muttered disdainfully. At the same time, lightning tore through the clouds, threatening to annihilate Genji. Genji silently sheathed his sword, then suddenly drew it. A dazzling light flashed, splitting the massive bolt of lightning in the blink of an eye, even tearing apart the dark clouds above. Then, Genji raised his sword to his shoulder, and then...
"Disappeared?"
Badan murmured in surprise, his deformed head opening large and small, pore-like eyes, trying to find traces of the source. But the moment he opened those eyes, intense pain surged through his massive body. Almost simultaneously, ten sword marks, like embroidery, were etched onto Badan's joints and vital points from bottom to top. As the radiant sword light penetrated inward, it also prevented the wounds from healing. The figure of the boy appeared directly above Badan, and the lightsaber in his hand erupted with an even more powerful light, and even his arm seemed to merge into it.
"you......"
'Shadowless!'
Seeing that Badan seemed to want to say something, Genshou ignored him completely and slashed down again without saying a word. The move he used was an imitation of Chen Huijie's "Crimson Sky Shadowless" style. Relying on the speed of "light", when he made the move, it was impossible to track him, let alone stop him. As he became more familiar with this sword move, he went from ten slashes to eleven, thirteen, eighteen... After two minutes, Genshou was able to make twenty-five slashes in a row with this move.
But Genji knew very well that this didn't mean his swordsmanship had surpassed Chen Huijie's; he had only achieved this thanks to the power Yuri had given him, and now...
Gensho looked at the battered and bruised Bataan and swung his sword to cut down all the plasma balls and undead dinosaurs that the guy had launched with full force from all angles. After losing the special attribute against the knights, although his strength was still not to be underestimated, he was no longer invincible. At least as long as he was willing to give up the power of 'blankness', it was only a matter of time before 'light' surpassed him.
Badan was acutely aware of this as well. He let out a low roar, absorbing all the ominous death mist into his body. Then, his form began to change, transforming into a human like a Transformer. At the same time, Genshou's 'drawing sword' attack, which was meant to interrupt him, was deflected and failed to penetrate his defense. The boy immediately realized that his current strength was no match for Badan. Without hesitation, Genshou flew into the sky. When he reappeared, all that greeted everyone's eyes was a towering giant sword slicing through the terrifying dark clouds and heading straight for Badan.
Batan, who had just switched forms and resembled a corrupted version of Kamen Rider Decade, never expected that Gensou would now challenge him to a life-or-death struggle. He gritted his teeth, gathered all his strength in his palm, flipped it upwards, and a black and red handprint immediately flew out, meeting the sacred greatsword.
In that instant, a terrifying shock spread outwards, and the space affected by it was as fragile as a precious gem, torn apart in the blink of an eye. It even produced bizarre colors, which were the turbulent desert of time, a place that even the veteran time traveler Tsukasa Kadoya and the Time Train dared not venture into.
In this central area where time and space are disrupted, perhaps in a second, perhaps in an hour, the Kamen Riders are unaware of how the flow of time has changed there. They only know that thirty seconds later in reality, a divine radiance like the sun and a deathly aura like a star erupt simultaneously. The Kamen Riders want to control this power within this battlefield, but when they make their move, they find that the impact has already been canceled out by the mutual entanglement.
"Wait, something flew by."
At that moment, Kouta Kazuha suddenly realized something and subconsciously spoke. After seeing the Kamen Rider seniors rushing back, he immediately understood what was happening and quickly followed. Finally, he saw the radiant shadow that was deeply embedded in the earth. As the sword of light retracted and dissipated, Genji's figure reappeared, but his body was like a tattered burlap used as a curtain, hanging there, with bright sunlight shining through the gap and leaving beams of light.
This is a side effect of 'blanking'!
Philip understood perfectly well what was going on; the excessive blankness had caused the boy's body to merge too deeply with the power of that divine light, making it impossible to return to its original state for the time being.
"I'm fine, seniors, Bataan..."
Gensou took a deep breath, and the light emanating from his body vanished in the blink of an eye. He slammed his fist into the ground behind him, and the fierce force immediately lifted him to his feet. He looked nervously at the center of the conflict, where, after space and the Desert of Time had calmed down, a huge figure appeared. Badan was not dead. Although his body was broken and mangled, he was still alive, and the knights could still feel the restraint emanating from his power.
Then, before anyone could react, the dazzling light shone again. In the blink of an eye, Yuanxiang's figure appeared before Badan. Before that deformed head, the boy looked at the black and red eyes before him and whispered:
"Have you... been kicked by the light again?"
"Damn it..."
Before Badan could finish speaking, his entire vision was filled with light. To the others, Badan's enormous head was rapidly wrapped up by strands of 'thread', like a ball of yarn. At the same time, a sickeningly loud kicking sound, like firecrackers, rang out. Finally, with a sound that was indistinguishable as a 'thud' or simply the sound of Badan's head being kicked open, this terrifying, enormous enemy met its end. The dark clouds in the sky automatically dispersed, and the warm sunlight poured down on the earth, like the dawn after waking from a nightmare. Badan's body also dissipated, and the dust it disintegrated gradually vanished completely in the wind.
"Yuanxiang!"
Tsukasa Kadoya hurriedly reached out and caught the boy falling from the sky. Seeing that the boy was about to be unable to suppress the assimilation of 'light' and was about to dissipate into specks of light, he anxiously shouted:
"Philip! Think of something!"
"There's... no way."
Philip hesitated for a moment, then shook his hand and shouted:
"Although the research is not yet complete and there's only a 20% chance of success, we have no choice but to gamble. Everyone, come here..."
"Twenty percent? That's too low!"
Hongo interrupted Philip, then exchanged glances with the other Showa Knights before forming a circle around Gengo. Kadoya Tsukasa immediately realized what was happening, quickly put Gengo down, and withdrew from the area, fearing that the power that should have been given to Gengo would be diverted to him.
"Gentlemen, let's unleash our power!"
Hongo clenched his fist and said in a deep voice:
"This time it's not about eliminating the enemy, but about our reliable successors, our respectable comrades-in-arms, knights assemble!"
Kamen Rider 1, Kamen Rider 2, Kamen Rider V3, Rider Man, Kamen Rider X, Kamen Rider Amazon, Kamen Rider Stronger, Sky Rider, Kamen Rider Super 1, Kamen Rider ZX, Kamen Rider Black, Kamen Rider Shin, Kamen Rider ZO, and Kamen Rider J—a total of fourteen Showa-era Kamen Riders—extended their right hands, and soft, pale golden light simultaneously shone from their bodies, falling upon Gengo like raindrops.
"Knight's Glory!" x14
Then, the Showa Knights shouted in unison, raised their right hands, and a pale golden pillar of light rose from the ground. Instantly, the knight icons of the Showa Knights flashed in the air one by one, and finally the pillar of light returned to the field and merged directly into Gengo's body.
In an instant, Gengo's physical condition began to improve rapidly, but the Showa Knights were overwhelmed and staggered backward. Except for Hongo Takeshi, none of the others could stand and fell to the ground, panting heavily.
"Are the old men still holding on?"
Tsukasa Kadoya helped Takeshi Hongo up, then looked at the other Showa Riders and asked them in a low voice. Hongo shook his head and answered seriously:
"It's nothing, just temporary exhaustion. I'm afraid we won't be able to exert our full fighting strength for the next two days."
"This is a minor problem. Once Bataan is eliminated, things will calm down for a while."
Kadoya Tsukasa helped Hongo Takeshi sit down, then checked on Gengo's condition. At that moment, the boy opened his eyes and subconsciously clenched his fist. It was a strange feeling, as if he was being protected by something. Although his body temperature was still a little low, he felt a warmth all over his body. The 'evil' that he used to have to keep an eye on was now quite quiet. If it remained in this state for a long time, he might really forget about it.
but....
Gensou quietly touched his heart; there was still a gap there, and the source of that strange feeling seemed to be there too. Wait, let me feel it more carefully...
Seeing Genji close his eyes again, seemingly sensing something, the surrounding Kamen Riders all remained silent, quietly awaiting the outcome. About three minutes later, Genji opened his eyes, his gaze filled with surprise, and smiled at the people around him, saying:
"It seems my 'blanking' doesn't require any price!"
"Really?! That's wonderful!"
Shotaro happily rushed over, lifted Gengo up, spun him around twice, gave him a tight hug, then quickly put him down, turned his back, and whispered:
"This is wonderful..."
"Mr. Shotaro, are you crying?"
"No way! Don't underestimate a tough guy!"
Sho Tsugami, standing nearby, asked instinctively. Shotaro immediately retorted, but his tearful voice couldn't be hidden. Gengo hugged Shotaro, worried that he might actually cry, and then immediately let go of him, walking towards where Takeshi Hongo and the others were. Just now, Tsukasa Kadoya had quietly and quickly recounted what had happened to him, so Gengo understood how he had survived.
"Seniors."
Gensou, with an extremely serious expression, said in a deep voice:
"I will absolutely not let your strength down, I..."
"Township."
Suddenly, Hongo interrupted Gengo, smiled, and said kindly:
"We just want you to live."
"....I see."
This unexpected answer startled Yuanxiang for a moment, then the seriousness and earnestness on the boy's face dissipated, and he obediently nodded, saying softly:
"I understand, Senior Hongo Takeshi. I will live well."
"Haha, okay, let's not make this topic so serious."
Hongo stood up abruptly, looked at Gengo, and said with a smile:
"How are you feeling right now? To be honest, this is the first time we've all come together like this and used all our strength. There's definitely going to be some effect, but we're really not sure how much it will last."
"I'm fine now."
Yuanxiang spread his arms, spun around, snapped his fingers, and answered with a smile:
"I feel so light right now, like I've been lifted off my feet. This is the first time I've felt this relaxed since I transformed."
"Haha, that's good, that's good."
"That hole is going to disappear."
At this moment, Momotaros's words attracted everyone's attention. Everyone looked up and saw that the underground passage that was emanating an aura of death was disappearing. Thinking about it, it made sense. The so-called underground world and the land of the dead was just an anomaly caused by the spatial transfer of the Bataan base. Now that the culprit had been eliminated, the byproducts would naturally dissipate as well.
"Wait, um, can't we extend the time a little longer?"
Terui Ryu said in a slightly anxious voice. His request was naturally because of Narumi Sokichi. Although he was a byproduct of Bataan, he was indeed the soul of the deceased former Fuuto detective. Terui Ryu knew very well how much his lover missed his father, so he hoped to take Narumi Sokichi to Fuuto to see him.
"Terui, don't do this."
Before anyone could speak, Narumi Shokichi pressed Terui Ryu's shoulder and whispered:
“I am a dead man. I am already very lucky to have the opportunity to return to reality and know the current situation of my family. I am content. My daughter has someone to entrust her to, and I am at peace. Besides.”
Narumi Shokichi shook the 'skull' memory in his hand and said with a relieved smile:
