The story we started

[“…You’re right. I really have something to ask you.”]

[His voice paused, then returned to his serious working tone.]

[“——The third one appeared in Nagano Prefecture.”]

【“!”】

[Hearing that impressive name, Zaimokuza's eyes shone, and his voice unconsciously lowered. ]

[“What’s going on? Hasn’t there been any sightings of No. 3 since the incident on No. 14? Why did he appear in Nagano Prefecture?”]

[“My colleagues in Nagano Prefecture told me about this. They are currently investigating the details, and we are also preparing to hold a meeting on this matter.”]

[Kousaka Kyousuke looked at the meeting room at the end of the corridor where people were constantly entering, then turned his head back and continued talking to Zaimokuza.]

[“But no matter what, the appearance of No. 3 is definitely not a good thing. And from what I know about them, they didn’t make any moves during the week we were in the hospital. Something must have gone wrong, or they are brewing some new plan.”]

[“Are you free tonight? I want to talk to you after the meeting.”]

[“No problem! I’m taking the cake back now. Mr. Kousaka, you can go directly to the restaurant to find it later--!!!”]

[An extremely intense sense of danger suddenly emerged from the bottom of his heart, interrupting what Zaimokuza was about to say.]

[His pupils contracted extremely at this moment, and he looked in the direction of the danger reflexively.]

[——In the distant sky, an object flew towards him at an extremely fast speed, and in an instant it was within reach.]

【boom--!!!!!!】

[“Hey!? Zaimokuza!”]

[A huge roar came from the other side of the phone. Kousaka Kyosuke's face changed, and he held the phone and asked in a low voice. ]

["What happened over there? Speak up! Hey!"]

……

[Kousaka Kyosuke's question echoed through the motorcycle's communication equipment on the smoky road, but no one responded to him.]

[The Triangle Chaser 2000 that Zaimokuza was riding was lying alone beside the roadblock, covered in wounds. Not far away, a huge pothole appeared on the road, with white mist emanating from the middle.]

[In the middle of the pothole, a round iron ball was deeply embedded in it, and countless cracks continued to spread along the iron ball on the asphalt road surface, indicating how huge the mass and impact carried by the iron ball were.]

[“Hmph~Did you dodge it?”]

[On the top of a factory in the distance, a ferocious dark blue arm slowly retracted and placed on the palm of another hand full of rings of the same style. Its sharp fingers gently removed the ring on the other finger from the empty one.]

[“That’s more like it. Let me see how capable this KUUGA is.”]

【Om—】

[The hand holds the removed ring in the palm of his hand. The ring stretches and deforms in a black twist, becoming a meteor hammer that is no different from the iron ball on the road, and is suspended from the ground by a pitch-black chain.]

[The factory's searchlight shines on the location of the figure at this moment, and then immediately passes by.]

[But in an instant, the light still illuminated the ferocious appearance of this figure, as well as the dark stone belt shaped like an evil spirit worn around its waist.]

36. An unprecedentedly strong enemy (two in one)

[“Hmm!”]

[The agile blue figure easily crossed the height of dozens of floors, transformed into the form of a blue dragon, holding the cake box in both hands, and landed lightly on the top of the building. ]

[He turned around and looked at the Triangle Tracker 2000 lying on the edge of the roadblock at the bottom of the building, and the huge pit next to it, his shoulders rising and falling with his heavy breathing.]

[If he hadn't used his mind to summon the belt and transform it just now because of the crisis, he would probably be lying on the road with his beloved car. ]

[“Fortunately, Xiao Jinghua’s cake was fine, otherwise Miss Saki would have killed me afterwards…”]

[He glanced at the cake in his arms with lingering fear, and was slightly relieved to find that there was no damage except for a layer of dust on the box. He immediately raised his alert and scanned the surrounding buildings with a serious mind.]

[So from which direction did the attack come? ]

[Although he has not seen the enemy's true form, Zaimokuza has already ruled him out as a human. The enemy is undoubtedly non-human, as he is able to bring such a strong sense of threat to him after his transformation.]

[And in Tokyo, besides him and Kousaka Kyousuke, there is only one group that can do this. ]

[“Sure enough, it’s Gurongi!”]

[After seeing the iron ball in the pit twisted into a small ornament with his superb vision after the transformation, Zaimokuza completely determined the identity of the enemy. This ability to turn objects into weapons is too recognizable.]

[But more doubts arose in his mind. Are they starting the game again? Why can't he get any news? Could it be that he is the target of this game? ]

【call out--】

【“!?”】

[The sound of breaking air in his ears cut off all of Zaimokuza's thoughts. He did a backflip without hesitation while holding the cake in his hand and left the place where he was standing.]

[The next second, the rooftop where Zaimokuza was originally standing was instantly blown into pieces, and the heavy iron ball completely destroyed the building structure at that location, causing a chain reaction of collapse.]

[This power is like a cannonball without gunpowder! Most of the bricks and stones in that area began to crumble and shatter under the impact, and collapsed down to the building below.]

“There!”

[In order to prevent the cake from being smashed in the next battle, Zaimokuza placed the box on the ground on another part of the rooftop. He suddenly looked up at another tall building in the distance. The attack just now came from that direction!]

[“Taku!”]

[After determining the opponent's position, he no longer hesitated. He bent his knees and relied on the high mobility of the Azure Dragon Form to jump upwards, directly crossing the distance between the two buildings and leaping towards the tall building.]

[The building quickly receded under his leaping feet, and soon became the size of a building block. Zaimokuza stared at the tall factory building that was gradually approaching in his field of vision, and the tall black figure standing on the roof.]

[It was a Gurongi with dark blue skin and a turtle-like appearance. The iron ball that had just destroyed the building and the road was being swung by the chain in its hand as light as a feather. The air made a deep and dull sound as it moved along the iron ball, indicating that the real weight of this weapon was not as light as it looked.]

[That Gurongi's pair of pure black eyes moved along with Zaimokuza's leap into the sky, and hot white mist blew out from both sides of his open mouth, and he said with a sinister smile.]

[“KUUGA…”]

【Go-Gamego-Re.】

A line of pitch-black text appeared on the interface below this Gurongi. For this Gurongi, the light curtain actually introduced the monster's name in words for the first time in history.

"As expected, this guy is the Gurongi from the GO Group... They finally appear."

Many careful people noticed this and their eyelids jumped. This kind of treatment had never been seen by any of the previous Gurongis.

This narrative style also indirectly illustrates the uniqueness of this Gurongi. It is certain that it is definitely an extraordinary and powerful existence among the Gurongi clan.

[“I found you!”]

[The blue compound eyes reflected the figure of Gamego standing on the rooftop swinging the ball and chain, and Zaimokuza rushed towards it headfirst in a parachuting posture. ]

【"snort!"】

[Looking at Zaimokuza rushing straight towards him from high above, Gamego snorted with disdain without any fear, and his snort was full of mockery. ]

【Wow——】

[Several blue streams of water suddenly gathered rapidly from the air and entangled the swinging chain ball.]

[After the water flow wrapped around the entire iron ball, as Gamego held the chain and swung it, the water flow formed a blue ring in the air. The trajectory of the chain ball's rotation was the edge of the water ring.]

[After the ring was completely formed, Gamego held the chain tightly and swung the ball towards Zaimokuza. The water ring broke away from the ball and rushed towards Zaimokuza who was falling from the sky at an extremely fast speed! ]

【"What!?"】

[Zaimokuza was horrified when he saw the water ring flying towards him. He tried his best to adjust his body angle in mid-air to avoid the attack.]

[A large water ring flew past Zaimokuza, who was lying sideways. When the water flowing at the edge of the ring brushed his chest, the solid armor in the form of a blue dragon was cut open like a fragile piece of paper, and the water ring mixed with red blood rushed into the sky behind him.]

[“Hmm!”]

[Zaimokuza, who was in an unbalanced position, endured the pain from the wound on his chest and looked at Gamego, who was spinning the ball and chain in his hand, in shock and anger.]

[“This is the elemental power of water!”]

【Zaimokuza, who possessed the same power, immediately recognized the true nature of this move, and his heart gradually sank.】

[From the very beginning, number 6 to number 25, none of the unconfirmed life forms with these powers that he encountered were easy to deal with. This time, it is estimated that it will be another tough battle. ]

[He thought for only a moment, and looking at the enemy who was already close below, the blue spirit stone on his waist glowed red along with Zaimokuza's thoughts, and the blue figure also turned completely red in the illusion.]

[“Hey!”]

[Zaimokuza transformed into his all-powerful form and flipped in mid-air, kicking out with his right foot that flashed red, and even before landing, he used his strongest move in his normal state.]

[And with the advantage of height, the power of this move is even stronger than usual! ]

[“Hmm!”]

【Looking at Zaimokuza using the Knight Kick to attack him, Gamego was unable to react for a moment and was kicked directly in the chest. The huge potential energy was converted into impact and kicked his tall body directly from the roof and fell downstairs.】

【boom--】

[The heavy body smashed through the skylight on the second floor of the factory and fell heavily to the ground inside the factory, splashing huge smoke and dust.]

[The impact of Gamego's fall was so great that the walls of the entire factory seemed to tremble at this moment. ]

[The fall from this height seemed to have taken some toll on it, as it lay headfirst in the middle of a cracked hole in the ground, motionless.]

【"drink!"】

[Zaimokuza, who had skillfully transformed into the form of a blue dragon, also landed lightly in the same factory. He looked up at the dusty ground and cautiously moved towards it.]

[The battle with No. 21 taught him a heavy lesson. Now, Zaimokuza will never let down his guard until he is sure that the enemy is dead.]

[As he continued to walk, the pit where Gamego fell was getting closer, but he still lay in the hole without making any moves, as if he had temporarily lost consciousness due to the impact of landing.]

【“…”】

[He tentatively kicked Gamego's back with his right foot, but Gamego's body just shook slightly as he was stepped on. Apart from that, there was no movement at all, which made Zaimokuza feel somewhat suspicious.]

[Did it really faint? ]

【——Buzz.】

【"Well!?"】

[Gamego still lay on the ground motionless like a dead body, but a strong sense of crisis had already resounded in Zaimokuza's heart along with the faint buzzing in his ears.]

[He immediately lowered his head and saw a transparent ripple on the ground beneath his feet that had spread and then disappeared.]

【--This is!???】

[Zaimokuza didn't have time to think, and subconsciously did a backward somersault.]

【boom--】

[The next moment, a huge stone pillar broke through the ground and stabbed upward, pushing the timber base that had not yet left directly out and falling far onto the pile of cargo boxes in the factory, smashing the neatly stacked boxes one by one.]

[“Ugh——How is that possible! That’s…”]

[The wooden seat lying among the broken pieces of the cargo box covered his abdomen which was hit by the stone pillar, propped up his body with one hand, and looked at the stone pillar and spoke in a voice full of disbelief.]

【The elemental power of 『Earth』.】

【Zaimokuza also recognized the true identity of this stone pillar, but that is why he was so shocked and even horrified.】

[Because including the previous "water" element, this Gurongi has already demonstrated two different elemental powers! ]

[But how is this possible? You know, Zaimokuza also possesses different elemental powers, and there are four of them, but unless he changes his form, he can only use one fixed elemental power at a time in each form -]

【……etc? 】

【Zaimokuza suddenly discovered a blind spot, and stared at the broken stone pillar and the figure that slowly stood up among the fragments.】

[When he saw that there was no text on Gamego's sturdy chest when he turned around, Zaimokuza finally confirmed his thoughts. 】

[Why...it didn't activate the enhanced body? ]

[The characteristics of those Gurongi's enhanced bodies are very obvious. Except for the special case No. 25, all other Gurongi that have activated their enhanced bodies, no matter how different their appearances are, must have a totem on their chests that represents the elemental power they wield.]

【But the other party didn't! 】

【Zaimokuza then discovered this huge problem. You know, the unconfirmed life forms that appeared before, like him, must activate the enhanced body similar to the element awakening mode before they can use the power of elements, but this new Gurongi actually used it directly without activating the enhanced body! 】

【How is this going? 】
