Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

However, a liquid, like water, flowed out from the part of the archangel that had been cut open.

That wasn't blood from an angel's injury, but rather the angel's body transforming into an energy state the instant it was attacked.

The essence of God's Power Gabriel is "water," so when attacked, it can also transform its body into a liquid to change its form and evade the slashes.

Of course, the angels themselves couldn't have come up with this idea.

The reason for this reaction is entirely because its five senses are synchronized with the fire on the right, allowing the fire on the right to also affect it.

"And then, not only angels, you also underestimated just how much I'm capable of."

In an instant, the fire on the right raised its hand.

"Warning: Chapter 22, Verse 1, 'Why have you forsaken me, God?'"

boom--!!!

A beam of light shot straight towards Yan Ming.

Ordinary people would be almost unable to react, but Yan Ming, relying on his ability to predict the future, witnessed this attack in advance.

Bang! He used his strongest time-limit sword to shoot out a golden beam of light, directly blocking the attack from the right side of the fire.

"This...this attack wasn't launched from your hand!"

“You’re right, you’re much smarter than that guy named Gates.”

At this moment, the body of the fire on the right had disappeared from its original spot.

Yan Ming had already predicted his next move before he even appeared.

"Warning, Chapter 35, Section 18, 'The Rain of Sulfur Sweeps Across the Land,' is initiating."

This time, the attack was no longer a straight line, but a rain of arrows falling like raindrops.

Each arrow was incredibly thin, yet it possessed the power to erode everything in its path.

Although he didn't know what would happen if he were hit by those arrows, Yan Ming had no intention of trying it out.

Boom!! He blasted away the huge beam of light that had just attacked him with his sword, then raised his hand and froze all the rain of arrows falling on him in place, instantly pulling them out of the timeline.

The attack is not over yet.

Yan Ming's precognitive abilities were working rapidly. He saw fire coming from behind him on the right, and a giant sword reaching to the sky was being swung at him.

Before his opponent could react, the golden giant sword reappeared, and Yan Ming swung it down fiercely behind him, aiming the over forty-meter-long sword at his back.

Clang—!

The golden blade clashed with the massive red blade.

Right Fire used his third hand to grip the sword and attack Yan Ming. Similarly, Yan Ming gripped his strongest Time Limit Sword and used a heavy blow to block the opponent's attack.

"Shouldn't you be realizing the gap between us by now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the fire on the right released his grip.

With a third hand, he aimed directly at Yan Ming and swung it.

boom!!

In that instant, a pale blue figure appeared directly in front of Yan Ming.

Gates!

Just before being attacked, Gates switched his body back to his fierce orange-black form, attempting to withstand the attack from the right side of the fire with a defense as thick as a continent.

but--

Even if Gates made a defensive move, he was still blasted away by the blow.

Not only that, but Yan Ming behind him was also blown away.

The two were powerless to resist and fell to the ground instantly after being struck by the unreasonable attack from the right-hand fire.

"How is this possible...? I was just able to—"

"What fools! You don't really think I can't see through your little tricks, do you?"

Right Fire scoffed at Gates's utterly shocked attitude.

“One of you will use your time manipulation ability to mitigate the attack, while the other, with strong defense, will be responsible for blocking my attacks… but you didn’t think of one thing at all.”

"My attacks can actually bypass your defenses, bypass all necessary factors, and directly hit the target I want to hit, right?"

In other words, no matter how much Gates defends, or even if he creates a 360-degree protective shield around Yan Ming, the Right Fire can still bypass their power and attack him directly.

If he wanted, he could even bypass their armor and attack their bodies, even their internal organs, directly.

Right Fire had already said this before the war even started.

Speed, strength, defense, distance, and ability—none of these matter to him. If he wants, he can win instantly with a wave of his hand.

This is not a joke or an exaggeration; it is the truth.

Yan Ming quickly used his abilities to restore himself and Gates to their peak physical condition before the battle.

The fire on the right has already realized this.

"It's alright, you can continue to recover, and keep struggling in vain, because no matter how many times you repeat this, I can defeat you all."

"—!!"

"However, my real target right now isn't you guys."

He has already said that the real target is Touma Kamijou's right hand.

Do you think we'll let you pass?

"Hahaha! No need, because I can get that right hand without lifting a finger!"

Just as the fire on the right was laughing so loudly, the winged shadow on its back was already rapidly falling towards the ground.

correct.

With the Right Flame here holding back Yan Ming and Gates, no one can stop the Archangel anymore.

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

Woz and Touma Kamijou are still on the ground.

After walking a short distance, Woz turned around and looked at the young man behind him.

"...You really want to personally stop the Right Flame?"

Even now, this spiky-haired high school student still wants to help.

Kowalski had repeated this to him many times.

"I've already said it, you're nothing but a burden now. You can't help my Demon King, and you're not strong enough to intervene in that kind of battle. Don't you understand what I'm saying?!"

"Then...aren't you and I the same?"

what?

The other person's words stunned Woz for a moment.

What are you talking about...?

"Isn't your situation the same as mine? You've been thinking about helping Yan Ming and Gates, haven't you? But with your current strength, you can't help them at all, so you can only come here to protect me... Is that right?"

That's absolutely right.

If Touma Kamijou was a burden in the battle between Yan Ming and the Right Flame, then Woz was the same.

He had no way to get involved in the battle. Although he possessed abilities far superior to those of ordinary people, these abilities alone were not enough to help Yan Ming and the others.

…On this point alone, he is indeed no different from Touma Kamijou.

"Even so, haven't you always wanted to help them? Haven't you always stayed by their side, doing your best to help?"

Even though he was exhausted, Touma Kamijou still managed to stand up with great difficulty.

He stared intently at Wozniak and shouted at him.

“We’re all the same… We may not be able to help them in terms of combat power, but we all share the same desire to help them and stop this tragedy!”

"...With my right hand, I can seal the power of that right-side fire. I believe that if it were you, you would also be able to do something for Yan Ming and the others!"

They are definitely not a burden. Whether it's Woz or Touma Kamijou, each of them has their own shining points.

This point... will never change, no matter what.

then.

In the next instant, something unexpected happened.

Woz noticed first, and then he quickly grabbed Touma Kamijou and leaped into the air at superhuman speed.

boom!!

A radius of more than ten kilometers was instantly destroyed.

The two of them flew to a distance in one breath, and Woz saw that the giant angel was already rushing towards them.

"They actually... tracked us all the way here!"

The power of God, Gabriel, is now officially taking action with the goal of seizing Touma Kamijou's right hand.

Touma Kamijou alone could not possibly defeat the opponent. To be honest... with Woz's current power, he absolutely could not accomplish anything.

…But then he remembered what the spiky-haired boy had just said.

No one is an absolute burden, and no one should ever think that they are incapable or unable to help.

"Young man... do you think the two of us have any chance of surviving this guy?"

"That's probably impossible."

I guessed so.

So Woz took a deep breath and stood seriously next to Kamijou Touma.

"But like you just told me, the more it gets like this... the less you should look down on yourself, right?"

In that instant.

It was as if in response to Woz's words.

A streak of intersecting green flashes—shining directly from his book.

Volume 5, A Certain Magical Index: Chapter 221 Woz's Galactic End - The Strongest Lord of the Universe!

That was a radiance that shone to the extreme.

The moment that light appeared, Wozniak seized it and materialized it.

"What? What happened...?"

The situation before him shocked Touma Kamijou.

Wozniak wasn't as shocked as he was; he knew what it meant.

The green light caused everyone around to stare at it in astonishment, and even the archangel who was about to attack the two of them froze in place.

"The moment has finally arrived."

After grasping the green light, the thing transformed into a belt—a futuristic driver.

Needless to say.

Woz quickly fastened the belt to his waist, and then... took out something that emerged from the green light from behind what should have been nothing.

A silver-green dial.

"Woz!"

"Action!"

The archangel only came to his senses the moment he pressed the button on the watch face and put it on his waist.

Behind Wozniak, a huge projection screen appeared, resembling a smart clock.

The archangel immediately raised his hand, and countless water wings shot out from behind him, flying towards Woz in the form of spikes.

"Beware!"

Touma Kamijou hurriedly tried to use his right hand to block the attacks for Woz, but he was too slow and it was too late.
