Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

He quickly took out the Decade control dial and created an aurora curtain, teleporting all those who had not yet been infected to a deserted place.

As for his words—

Yan Ming took out the driver and directly split the dial in his hand in two.

"Step back immediately."

"Huh—?"

"The scene that follows is going to get very ugly."

Then, immediately afterward...

Under Touma Kamijou's watchful gaze, a scene with a truly visually striking impact unfolded.

boom--!!!

With a terrifying burst of sword energy, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of monsters were blasted out of the stadium entrance.

That was Yan Ming, who had transformed into Zi-O II.

Now, wielding his sword in both hands, ignoring the horde of monsters surrounding him, he charged swiftly into the sea of ​​monsters from the entrance.

With an almost unparalleled ability to kill enemies.

"Ur, did you succeed?"

Aura appeared on a rooftop not far away and asked Ur.

A look of great joy appeared on Ur's face.

"It worked...it worked, Ora! Look!"

He excitedly pointed in a direction downstairs, and Aura looked in the direction he was pointing and saw this scene.

boom--!!

The violent shockwave blew away countless alien Agitos, and at the intersections of the streets, those strange beings were flying up like a tsunami.

Standing in the very center of the crossroads was that silver-purple figure.

The king who can freely manipulate time and space.

He wielded his sword with both hands, and with each swing, countless alien Agitos were blasted away by the shockwaves of his attacks.

This can't even be considered a battle.

From the very beginning, those alien knights couldn't even touch Yan Ming's fingertips. Yan Ming simply swung his weapon casually, and the destructive power, exceeding that of splitting a mountain, instantly transformed into an impact. The aftershocks alone were enough to blast all these monsters away.

For Yan Ming, this was as simple as chopping vegetables.

These alien knights in front of him were his prey, and the two longswords in his hands were just knives for cutting vegetables.

Nothing can remain standing in front of him after he swings his sword once; if it can, he'll swing it a second time.

It was a scene of overwhelming dominance.

Aura was almost dumbfounded, but Ur showed no panic at all, and even had an excited smile on his face.

"Are you... scared out of your wits?"

"What? No way! You don't even understand what's going on here!"

"You're the one who doesn't understand the situation!" Aura immediately said. Another Agito has been completely suppressed. No matter how many there are, they can't possibly defeat Zi-O.

“Aura, you haven’t really forgotten, have you? That’s an Another Agito, not like a regular Another Knight.”

Ul said with a smile.

"In terms of strength, it may not be the advantage, and the fact that it has produced so many of them doesn't really pose any threat to that guy."

"But the most powerful thing about the Anomalous Agito isn't its strength, but its ability to multiply."

Proliferative capacity?

Aura blinked and followed Ur's gaze, only then realizing something.

Although the alien Ajitas that Yan Ming kept knocking away were defeated with a single blow, their numbers continued to increase.

People hiding inside the city will always be infected, then become new Agito aliens, then leave the city, and then go outside the city.

Of the 2.3 million people, almost the entire majority became the alien Agito.

But that's not all.

The infection has spread beyond the city because... today is the Daihasei Festival.

On this day when outsiders can freely enter and leave Academy City, the entrance to Academy City has been opened.

Naturally, these alien knights left the city through the entrance and exit.

This is Ur's true purpose.

"Currently, their spread has reached all of Japan, and soon it will reach even more distant places, then other countries, the entire continent, and finally... the entire Earth will be infected by them!"

It won't take long.

In less than five minutes, the city has been paralyzed like this. Judging from the ever-accelerating rate of infection, it should be able to paralyze all civilizations on Earth in about a day.

Defeating them by brute force alone is useless, because they are heretical knights, and they will revive no matter how many times they are defeated, unless they are defeated with specific power.

"Although Zi-O's power can indeed completely kill Another Riders, he can't kill them as fast as the infection rate."

"Once he kills off a group of Agito and turns them back into humans, what good will it do to turn them back into humans under such an absolute encirclement, which is like the end of the world? Those people will still be torn apart, infected again, and turn back into Agito Knights!"

Although it's unclear why Zi-O didn't use his most prized time manipulation ability to rewind the entire city's population back to their pre-infection state, Ur was more at ease that he didn't do so.

"So... that Zi-O right now is just bluffing?"

"That's right, he's just wasting his energy. No matter how many he kills, he can't kill them all."

Ur crouched down and smiled at the figure still standing in the middle of the crossroads.

"Zi-O! Do you like this wonderful gift I gave you~?"

"The Time-Knocker."

In fact, Yan Ming had already noticed that all of this was the work of the Time Robbers.

The reason he stood still and attacked these alien knights was to wait for these two guys to appear.

However, Yan Ming knew that even if he killed them all, it wouldn't turn the alien knights back into humans, and it might even cause them to go all the way and expand the infection to its maximum extent.

"So you were the ones who did all this. Why did you do it?"

"Hmph! Don't blame us, Zi-O. Blame it on your own existence in this world!"

Ur's words became unusually sharp.

"Haven't you realized something yet? Whether it's the Time King of the past or you now, wherever you exist, disaster will occur. Even if we don't do these things, as long as you continue to exist in the world as Demon Kings, then no matter which world you're in, the people living there will eventually suffer!"

"In the end, there would be no fighting without you Kamen Riders. You openly proclaim how righteous you are and how you fight to protect humanity, but the truth is, the world would be much more peaceful without you!"

"Do you understand now? Even if I didn't do this, you would still put this world in danger! Hahaha! If you know what's good for you, you might as well kill yourself sooner rather than later. That way, it might be a quicker and more painless end, and it would be better for the people living in this world!"

While using his time manipulation ability to stop all the surrounding alien Agitos, Yan Ming turned his head and looked at Ur.

"How can we stop them?"

"Hmph...you think I'd tell you?"

With a cold smile, Ul continued, looking at Yan Ming.

"Don't think that you're only dealing with the number of people in this city. Now, the infection zone of the Agito aliens has completely spread throughout the entire territory of Japan. Soon it will leave this tiny island, then other countries, then the entire continent, and finally the entire human world!"

"Those foolish national armies cannot stop their invasion! The power of their armies—airplanes, tanks, aircraft carriers—even if they fly around with nuclear bombs, it's useless. If they aren't killed with the corresponding knight's power, the Otherworldly Knights will come back to life no matter how many times they are killed!"

"Oh... I'm so sorry, judging from the time, it seems like about ten minutes have passed. It looks like the infected area is no longer just a clean zone in Japan, huh? Ahahaha—!!!!"

In other words, according to what Ur said, the spread of the Aberrant Agito has now reached beyond Japan.

Rumbling--

At this moment, Yan Ming saw an even louder shaking sound coming from behind the alien Agitos that he had already stopped moving.

Those were the alien knights who had piled up into a mountain.

They piled up behind the immobile Agito, eventually forming a staircase that was taller than a building.

"Let's go, Aura, that guy's completely finished."

Ur calmly got up, but... he soon realized something else was wrong.

It was already such an exaggerated and unbelievable situation.

But Yan Ming... instead, he took out his phone and started making a call to someone...?

"It was me. That time calamity said that the spread of the Agito aliens has already exceeded the territory of Japan."

"What did you say?! What are we going to do now...?"

"Don't worry, you can easily end all of this with your own strength."

"With my power? What are you talking about? This goes beyond national borders! You don't think I can do this all by myself—"

"Alright, I'll send you the specific filing details to your phone. You'll know what to do once you see the information on your phone."

"I...I understand. By the way, why is it so noisy over there? It's like a battlefield..."

"Because I was already on the battlefield, talking to you on the phone while also dealing with these monsters."

*Beep.* Yan Ming hung up the phone, then stuck the Time Limit Sword into the ground. While typing with one hand, he grabbed the Strongest Limit Sword with the other and, without even looking, slashed away the monsters that were charging at him.

"What is that guy doing...?"

Ur was completely unable to understand Yan Ming's current behavior.

In his view, since he had already realized the desperate state of affairs, he should have acted even more panicked, but now…

Whether Yan Ming remained calm after hearing what he said, or whether he was typing on his phone while simultaneously using a knife to fight off the alien Agitos, these were all things that Ur could no longer understand.

However, he had a very bad feeling about it.

"Never mind... Aura, let's go."

"Why don't we just leave the rest to the Agito aliens? What's the point of us doing anything?"

"Of course there are. There are still a considerable number of survivors in this city... We'll capture them, then let the Agito infect them as well, and then..."

"What will happen? Will something good happen if the number of infections increases?"

"Ah, that's right."

Reflecting on the new capabilities that the alien Agito has now evolved.

Ur immediately became even more excited.

"That's fantastic news...!"

----------------

Bang--!!

After sending all his thoughts to Gates via text message, Yan Ming put away his Faiz X phone and continued looking at the street in front of him.

It was still an endless ocean of monsters.

However, Yan Ming was not panicked at all; on the contrary, he was very satisfied with the situation.

Because all of these things unfolded exactly as he had imagined.

"Now I just need to keep going, and I should find it."

He pulled out the second sword stuck in the ground and continued forward with both swords, constantly carving a bloody path through the endless horde of monsters.

Meanwhile, Gates learned through his phone what the so-called plan Yan Ming had arranged for him was.

"...There's another way?"

He and Woz were currently on a rooftop, with countless alien Agitos below.

After confirming Yan Ming's plan, Gates took out the Time Driver and put it on his waist.

Where are you planning to go?
