Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

In order to prevent their plans from becoming complicated, they must proceed cautiously.

"...Tsk."

Therefore, we cannot continue the pursuit this time.

Asmodeus had to stop there; this battle had already reached the level of interfering with the solar system... and he couldn't interfere any further upwards.

"You've done enough. Just come back to me and tell me the details of what happened."

Although Belial and Asmodeus are both demon lords of equal status, what he is saying makes a lot of sense, and Asmodeus is willing to do as he says.

A buzzing sound—something like a spatial rift unfolded behind it.

Asmodeus glanced at everyone present, and finally took a deep look at Yan Ming, who was enveloped in golden light.

How could a single human possess such immense power?

"One day we will officially go to war with you."

Asmodeus's figure slowly dissipated from this planet...this world.

Then, the golden power surrounding Yan Ming erupted outwards like a raging storm across the entire world.

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

"What...was that just now?"

Yan Ming couldn't help but look at his hand.

Nourishes—

A golden, clock-like object began to shimmer.

But—it then vanished.

…and all of them flew back into Yan Ming's body.

The aftershocks of the power had dissipated; although the power was strong, it was merely a fluctuation.

Under Yan Ming's control, the power did not cause any damage or impact on the surrounding plants or trees.

Kaito Daiki and Kadoya Tsukasa looked around, only to find that Asmodeus had disappeared.

At the same time, they also noticed something.

The figure that was originally enveloped in golden light has now completely deactivated its transformation state.

Gates and Wozniak separated directly from his body.

"Well…!"

Gates turned around in disbelief and looked at Yan Ming.

"Hey, Zi-O... what exactly did you just do?"

"...King Chonghuang Shiwang".

Woz muttered to himself, then looked directly at Yan Ming's hand.

"My Demon King, do you sense anything amiss, or have any extra items appeared around you?"

The three people besides Yan Ming could all sense that Woz's tone seemed somewhat...excited.

He seemed to be expecting something, hoping that Yan Ming would undergo some kind of huge change.

There was nothing there.

Despite his intense emotions, Yan Ming could only pour cold water on him.

In response, Yan Ming waved his hands, revealing they were empty.

"I know what you want to ask. I'm sorry, that force only lasted for a moment."

"How could this be... There should have been such a violent fluctuation, right...!"

Since it's possible to convert Decade's Ride Card into a Ride Watch compatible with the Zi-O system, and Tsukasa Kadoya possesses a card that houses the power of Grand Zi-O, then wouldn't it be possible to—!

"It's a pity, it seems that following your idea won't work either."

Tsukasa Kadoya spoke first.

Wozniak frowned, seemingly still not believing it.

"What are you talking about? Didn't we already try it? My Demon King has indeed grasped the power of Kamen Rider J, so there's no reason why we can't get that card—"

"calm."

The increasingly anxious tone was abruptly stopped by Yan Ming's simple remark.

Yan Ming calmly walked over and took the special card from Tsukasa Kadoya's hand.

The Grand Zi-O... It also has the image of the strongest Zi-O engraved on it. Yan Ming held it in his hand, and it should have already transformed into a watch face according to his consciousness.

No response.

"How is this possible? This—"

Wozniak simply couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Because, even though it had already caused such a huge power fluctuation, why is it still... not working even now that it's in my hands...?

“It’s not just him; I myself feel that in this situation, I can’t even use this card.”

Tsukasa Kadoya took the card back and flicked it in his hand with a somewhat annoyed expression.

"What could be the reason..."

"Can't use it? Give it to me, Shi! You said you couldn't use it anyway."

Then Hai Dong Daishu turned the tables and said directly.

Judging from his smiling face and his fixed gaze on the card in Tsukasa Kadoya's hand, he had clearly fallen into his old habit of being a thief again.

"Isn't something that can't be used just junk? Don't waste it, I don't mind at all!"

"Stop talking nonsense. I didn't say it was completely useless. It's just that I felt it was unusable when I was with this guy."

How could such a thing happen?

Woz seemed dazed. He ignored the noisy Tsukasa Kadoya and Daiki Kaito, as if he had lost his mind, and just stood there.

This scene drew different attention from Gates and Yan Ming.

"Are you in a hurry for me to gain the power of this form, Woz?"

"No, no... I'm just... well, I might actually be a little anxious..."

“We’re still a ways off from the number of data points we need to collect. I don’t think you need to be this stressed out.”

Gates crossed his arms and spoke with Yan Ming.

"Besides, power is something you have to collect yourself, right?"

"If one obtains the so-called 'strongest' power by sheer chance, then the reliability of that power is questionable."

"At least... I think it's far inferior to the power you gain step by step through your own efforts."

The retainer holding the book continued to watch the two people in front of him, but his gaze had changed... he seemed to be thinking a little.

After a moment, he took another breath.

“You’re right… Mr. Gates, what’s meant to be will be, sooner or later… I shouldn’t be in a rush right now.”

But...why?

Why did I resonate with the Grand Zi-O card in Tsukasa Kadoya's hand at that moment?

What are the reasons behind this...?

Such questions began to take root in Yan Ming's mind.

"Alright—so the world's problems are solved, right?"

Still in their transformed state, Kaito Daiki and Kadoya Tsukasa exchanged a glance before deactivating their transformation.

Swah——

"…scholar."

"What's wrong with you again, Haidong?"

"No, it's just... you really should take a good look in the mirror and see yourself like this..."

When the light faded, Tsukasa Kadoya was wearing... an outfit that resembled Indian style.

Even their skin has darkened considerably.

"...What is this?!"

"Tsukasa Kadoya, the destroyer of worlds, acquires a somewhat fitting identity each time he enters a new world—"

"No, no, there's no need for you to repeat information that everyone already knows. My question is! Why would someone as handsome as me wear such tacky clothes?!"

"Even your skin has turned darker."

"This skin feels so weird... Is it sunscreen?! No, what kind of sunscreen makes my skin turn darker after I apply it?!"

This is Tsukasa Kadoya, who only realized his abnormality after reverting to his original form.

However, Hai Dong Da Shu's concerns were not entirely focused on him.

He quietly walked up to Yan Ming's side and casually looked around.

"Cough cough."

During this time, he reached out and made a gesture towards Yan Ming, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

Gates looked at this scene with some confusion.

"...Did your hand cramp?"

"My treasures! Aren't you going to return my precious treasures? They weren't given to you, they were borrowed! Or are you trying to forcibly and domineeringly take what's precious of mine—"

"That card? Wasn't it always in your pants pocket?"

Huh? The big tree in the sea was slightly taken aback.

He looked down and saw a card in his left trouser pocket.

"Huh? Really? It really is J's card... But is this really a good idea?"

"what?"

"Look, once you give me back the card, you won't have that watch head anymore."

"You little brat—are you going to take it or give it? Trying to play hard to get, huh?"

Just as Gates was about to lose his temper, Yan Ming threw something at him.

"Whoa—! What is that?"

After somewhat flusteredly accepting this unexpected gift—

Gates, and even the big tree of Haidong, were stunned.

The dark green watch face... is the control watch that houses the power of Kamen Rider J.

"W-How come there are still some?! Didn't they all turn back into cards?"

"It came out of the book."

Wozniak was standing to the side, flipping through the book in his hands.

From the Oma Zi-O Calendar: KT, not only the J dial from before appeared, but also two brand new dials emerged.

They hovered in the air one after another and landed in Yan Ming's hands.

"OOO!"

One of them is a driving dial that shimmers with three colors: red, yellow, and green.

Everyone knows its true identity... Kamen Rider OOO, the ancient king Kamen Rider who controls the power of various living beings by relying on the forbidden power of alchemy.

The reason I obtained it was probably due to the nature of the various enemies I faced this time.

Tiamat, who also wields the power of all beasts, was defeated, and OOO, who also wields the power of multiple creatures, was obtained in return.

Then, the other dial—
