Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

Yan Ming stopped the timing of his moves, maintaining them at their peak attack power.

It doesn't stop the action itself, but rather waits until the moment their output power reaches its maximum—and then stops that moment.

It's like closing the market just before a stock crashes to maximize profits, thus keeping it perpetually at its peak of explosive growth.

Although the analogy sounds a bit strange, the principle is actually the same.

"Now!"

Once Yan Ming confirmed that the time had reached the point where he could no longer wait, all the moves had been executed in the most appropriate manner.

Woz walked directly in front of Yan Ming and the others, twisting the gravity of countless black holes to form a huge gravity field shield.

Then, time resumed its flow.

boom--!!

An unimaginable combination of moves overwhelmed Andumari.

A slash powerful enough to cut through anything, unparalleled monstrous strength, and gravity suppression equivalent to a black hole.

In addition, there's a series of operations that take an countless amount of time.

Under the influence of various forces, Yan Ming and the others only saw an unparalleled explosion shatter everything in the darkness, and even the entire world composed of "phases" in front of them was greatly disturbed.

It was an ultimate combined technique unlike anything seen before.

This is countless times more powerful than the move used against Aiwas. Although it doesn't take into account the effect of Geiz absorbing power using the resurrected's fierce characteristics, even if that effect were included, there wouldn't actually be much change in output.

Then.

After doing all this, is it all over?

Boom—

Amidst the oppressive explosion, a powerful shockwave erupted from the blast center.

"Roar! Ro ...

Woz quickly used the shield he had prepared to protect the Demon King and the Savior. He blocked all the incoming shockwaves, but the beams of light that could turn people into pillars of salt continued to strike.

Yan Ming tried repeatedly to freeze the opponent's light, but it seemed that he could no longer hold on. The opponent's resistance to time had reached its limit, and immense power was constantly impacting Woz's shield.

Bang! Despite this, Woz managed to completely block these impacts by manipulating his powerful strength.

Roars continued to come from the center of the explosion.

"I will not lose... I will not die no matter what! With your level of power, even if we consider the future for another hundred or several thousand years, you still cannot defeat me!"

It is constantly recovering.

Despite its body being mangled and covered in flesh and mud, it was clear that Yan Ming and his group's techniques were very effective and they were almost about to eliminate it.

But Andumari is still alive.

"Tsk, it's taken so many hits from us and it's still not dead? It's really persistent!"

"That guy is absorbing the concept of this 'phase' itself to make himself stronger. If he really absorbs all the power of the 'phase,' he will definitely gain power that is tens, no... even thousands of times greater than he currently is."

Based on Woz's words, Yan Ming and Gates agreed that they absolutely could not let this guy continue absorbing.

"Woz... what can you do in this form?"

"I can manipulate the gravity of the universe, release various celestial energies unique to the universe, and my cloak can also create a vast space that is infinitely close to outer space..."

"I see... Okay then."

After hearing Woz describe all the abilities, Yan Ming's mind started racing.

"...Because I've already figured out how to deal with that guy."

Under the Demon King's command, the story's stage has entered its final moment.

Volume 5, A Certain Magical Index: Chapter 225 The Hidden Trump Card Behind the Demon

The powerful slash of the strongest time-limit sword, the fierce attack of the resurrected, and the gravitational suppression of the galaxy's end.

Furthermore, if Yan Ming's multiple and powerful time manipulation abilities were applied to the opponent—

"That's not enough... Don't think you can kill me with this level of skill!!"

Andumari roared, its body gradually approaching the point of shattering, the multiple leaks of power and defense making it unable to continue.

But it chose to force itself to add a superfluous, inferior version.

He used all the power called "phase" to strengthen his physical structure, ignoring everything else and only thinking about surviving.

This caused it to even become confused and disoriented.

In its heyday, Anduma would never have been in this situation. Back then, it was a powerful force that relied on theft, able to steal a portion of the strength of any enemy, no matter how powerful they were.

But now, after stealing such a massive "phase" from the Right Fire, Andumari is barely able to maintain his self-awareness.

However, it can continue to live as long as the phase exists.

No matter what moves the opponent uses, no matter what has become of my body, I must crush all these damned guys. Just keep pestering them. At worst, they will be trapped in this world called "Phase" forever!

however.

"Let's get started, Woz."

Yan Ming and Gates both stepped back, allowing Wozniak to take the lead.

"The success or failure from now on depends entirely on you."

"...?"

The demons, nearing annihilation, couldn't comprehend what they were planning.

Ignoring the demon's astonished gaze, Woz used an energy shield formed by the gravity of countless black holes to block the attack.

He pushed the watch face at his waist with his hand.

"Finally Beyond The Time!"

Seeing that Woz was simply about to unleash his ultimate attack, Andumari breathed a sigh of relief. He subconsciously thought that Yan Ming and the others had found some way to defeat it.

It seems now that it's just a matter of not giving up... It's useless. No matter how many times you use those kinds of moves, you can't defeat your current self!

"Ultra Galaxy Explore!"

Then—Andumari was pulled in.

"…What?"

As if it couldn't believe what it was seeing, Andumari stared wide-eyed with a pair of distorted eyes, its tall, serpentine body scanning the new space.

First, the almost completely black "phase" world has completely disappeared.

Secondly—

Instead, there is an endless expanse of colorful stars and sea, so vast it's unimaginable.

The dazzling array of light bodies, scattered across the endless Ganges River, came into view, and the sight of the starry sky brought Andumari back to his senses.

Is it... the universe?!

Could it be that I was transported into outer space? No, that's not right! "Phase" is a realm attached to the surface of this world; it can't be broken in this way!

Unless it is…

Create a completely new space within the "phase," and then forcibly pull it into it...?

But is it even possible?

Andumari couldn't believe it. It stared in all directions and finally realized something was amiss.

All the celestial bodies here, their directions of motion, trajectories, positions, and shapes—are all the opposite of those of real celestial bodies.

"This...this isn't outer space?!"

"This is indeed not outer space, although it is almost indistinguishable from the universe."

He quickly turned around and saw a figure with a cloak and an astronaut-like appearance floating in the distance behind him.

It's Wozniak.

Upon closer inspection, one can see that Woz's cloak is now displaying the same iridescent and beautiful colors as the surrounding galaxies.

Without a doubt, this space, which is almost like the universe, was created by him!

"Ha...you've really walked right into a trap."

Although I don't know how the other party pulled it into this strange place, as long as I kill it, this space should naturally disappear, right?

Without considering the serious consequences, Andumari unhesitatingly concentrated his energy in his eyes, instantly forming an enormous red beam.

"Turn into a pillar of salt for me!!"

Boom—!! An overwhelming blow was unleashed in an instant, and the boundless sea of ​​stars around it trembled instantly.

…No, that's not an illusion.

After the beam of light was fired, all the surrounding galaxies vibrated...distorted?!

Bang—!! Then, Woz's body, which was floating in space, shattered.

Like shards of a mirror, it shattered into countless pieces in an instant, which then adhered to the surrounding space, instantly making everything around it look like a kaleidoscope.

Woz's figure was reflected directly in every angle of the 360-degree circle.

"What's going on? What...what happened?!"

That's right, Woz did create a special space that resembled the universe using the cloak of the Galaxy Finale form, but relying solely on this space wouldn't be enough to trap the demon Andumari inside.

However, someone has successfully done it once... by pulling someone into a corresponding space without their knowledge or consent.

The person who did that was named Yan Ming.

He used the various complex reflective surfaces between celestial bodies and planets in the special space created by Wozniak to understand what he called "mirrors"... or the mirror world.

Zi-O II is the King of the Mirror World, who possesses a portion of the power that controls the existence of the Mirror World.

And this is the mirror world that Yan Ming created from Woz's special space using that power.

To put it another way, this place is like the universe in a mirror world.

Now, isolated in this special mirror world, Andumari is unable to draw any power from the "phase" world.

It means that if we resolve this issue here, everything will be completely over.

This was the result Andumari himself realized, and then—

He then saw Woz's figure, which appeared like a kaleidoscope from every angle, slowly raise his hand.

"Please take a look at the largest celestial body in this solar system."

boom--!!

A scorching inferno condensed from mid-air.

Woz, whose form had changed at some point, raised his right hand high, and the high-temperature particles existing in the special space all rapidly gathered in his hand.

What was formed in that instant... was a huge fireball comparable in size to the sun.

If it didn't exist in a special space, Woz alone couldn't create such a massive number of fireballs, and these fireballs could only exist in the special space created by Woz.

Moreover, even if this fireball is created in a special space, its energy level is far less powerful than that of the real sun.

But that's enough.

Woz stared at Andumali before him, then with a wave of his hand, he instantly sent the celestial body, which was countless times larger than Earth, plummeting downwards.

The scorching flames burned everything.

Andumari's body was instantly engulfed by the enormous fireball, which then buried him almost to the very center, relentlessly scorching him with its hottest core.

"Based on—this level...!!"

Andumari struggled desperately, holding on and squeezing out the last bit of strength from his body.

It even began to consider whether to steal the things that Woz had released.

Special space, fireball as big as the sun—that's right, as long as we take this guy's power, it'll all be his!

Just as Andumari was hatching this wicked plan.

The countless celestial bodies and stars surrounding him were all hurtling towards him.
