He sized up the crimson-bodied Kamen Rider Ghost opposite him, then subconsciously touched the Rider Card Box at his waist, seemingly wanting to pull out one of Ghost's "Father Soul" Rider Cards as well.

"You wait."

Tsukasa Kadoya raised his sword in a gesture.

Kino was also waiting for him.

So, amidst the chaos of the battlefield, and the life-or-death struggles on the sidelines, the two Ghosts who were the only ones fighting each other fell into an eerie silence.

When Kamen Rider Decade obtains Rider Cards, he also receives corresponding Form Cards, but most of them only contain the basic Kamen Rider form.

Kino remembers that if Tsukasa Kadoya wanted to obtain the final forms of the Kamen Riders, he would have to wait until the power of "Perfect Form 21" appeared.

Meanwhile, Decade, who had been rummaging through the Rider Card Box for a while, finally found the card he wanted. He flipped a Ghost card with a scarlet mask between his fingers, tapped the card, and confidently inserted it into the driver.

"FormRide!"

"Ghost!" Toucon Boost Damashii! 』

"Ok?"

Tsukasa Kadoya paused for a moment.

Although he successfully transformed into the same Crimson Ghost as the other side, something seems off.

Kino then laughed happily: "Give up, you can't beat me in terms of the number of forms! For Kamen Rider Ghost, the power of 'Tousan' is unique!"

Upon hearing this, Tsukasa Kadoya casually replied, "Since you are unique, then why do you possess this power?"

"Yeah, why?"

Then Kino's tone became nonchalant: "I'm looking for the reason too."

Tsukasa Kadoya: "...?"

In some ways, Kamen Rider Decade is also someone who doesn't take pressure, so he just draws his sword and slashes at this kind of inexplicable guy!

"Then I'll tell you!"

Clang—

The blades clashed once more, sparks flying. Kamen Rider Decade attacked fiercely and swiftly, his arrogant and high-pitched voice echoing with his relentless assault.

"I'm going to destroy this world! So whether you're a Demon King or a Kamen Rider, I'll destroy you all in the end!"

"Why are you saying this all of a sudden?"

While defending himself, Kino asked with genuine doubt, "What does this have to do with me? This is just the reason you agreed to come to this world. And even if you want to destroy something, you should at least understand the situation first."

"clang!"

The Eye Soul Saber slammed heavily into the saw blade opposite him once more. Kamen Rider Decade's downward pressure closed in on the Crimson Ghost. The identical black compound eyes stared at the Kamen Rider in front of him, and then he saw his own current posture reflected in the other's mirror-like eyes.

Why would you suddenly say these things?

It seems that when facing this guy, he unconsciously blurted out some things, and he even felt that it was perfectly normal.

"You're a very strange guy."

Kamen Rider Decade stared at him and said in a low voice, "The history of those Kamen Riders is fading away, and this world could collapse at any moment. They are as fragile as rootless duckweed—is it because of that Demon King, or because of you?"

"Before calling someone else a demon king, you should first consider your own identity as a 'destroyer of the world'! Tsukasa Kadoya, you should know very well why those time jackers brought you here." Kino pressed the blade back without showing any weakness.

"Oh, of course I know~"

Kamen Rider Decade glanced indifferently at the Time Jacker Mazinger, who was fighting Geiz Mazinger next to him.

Although he appears to be helping the Time Jackers, these Time Jackers, who arbitrarily alter the history of the Riders and can manipulate time, are clearly not respectable people.

So naturally, he also kept a backup plan.

Kamen Rider Decade's power suddenly shifted to one side, causing the blades that had been locked in a struggle to separate. He then took a step back and tossed his weapon aside.

"That's all!"

He then took out an attack control card.

Kino paused for a moment upon seeing this: "Is that all? I thought you could fight me all day."

As he said this with some reluctance, he pulled the driver handle to unleash his special attack while checking the progress of [Kamen Rider Chronicle].

Although fighting alongside Kamen Rider Decade was an unusual experience, Kino felt that their relationship was quite harmonious. However, when he looked expectantly at the recording progress at the bottom of the page, he found that the magenta progress bar had only moved forward a tiny bit.

So, it seems that "fighting each other" really doesn't work?

Kino had actually considered using "Infinite Soul Form" or "Royal Form" to defeat Decade and forcibly seize the belt, but not mentioning it seemed like setting a bad example for Sougo. On the other hand, Decade, who currently harbors hostility towards the Demon Lord faction, might also be defeated and forced into a final form with an unusually unusual headlight color...

That would be far too exaggerated.

Perhaps this is why Decade stopped Geiz from appearing earlier, since there's really no need for a world-shattering war at this stage.

Another consideration for Kino was that he worried that unexpected changes might occur when he became "Kamen Rider Decade".

While regretting that they couldn't fully collect Decade for the time being, the two facing off simultaneously unleashed their special moves.

Final Attack Ride!

『GGG-Ghost!』

"Tousan!" Daikaigan! Boost! Omega Drive! 』

Accompanied by the powerful sound effects of their ultimate moves, crimson emblems of giant eyes appeared behind them simultaneously. Then, their bodies floated into the air, burning with fiery energy that wrapped around their right feet, and finally, at the same moment, they used the Knight Kick towards each other!

"BOOM—!!"

At the instant their knight kicks collided, a blinding burst of light exploded from the center, and a massive inferno engulfed the two figures.

The shockwave from the explosion spread out like a storm, causing the steel frames of the surrounding construction site to shake violently. Even the two Time Demon Machines fighting each other nearby couldn't help but raise their hands to block the shockwave.

Kamen Rider Geiz saw this opportunity and, as if to retaliate for Aura's sneak attack earlier, he suddenly swung out a slap and sent the Time Jacker Majinji flying. Then, without hesitation, he activated his finishing move!

"boom!"

The explosions that occurred one after another at the construction site were undoubtedly massive. Ghost, perhaps triggered by the underlying code, turned its head and glanced over there.

After Kino was attacked by Kamen Rider Decade, Kamen Rider ZiO, who took over the battle against Another Rider, couldn't help but look over.

The flames that shot into the sky gradually subsided, and the Time Jacker's Demon Machine had been destroyed by Kamen Rider Geiz.

In addition, Ghost and Decade, who were thrown by the explosive blast from the Knight's kick, also fell to their sides. The two then slowly stood up and looked at each other across the firelight and smoke several meters away.

The battlefield fell silent for a moment for no apparent reason.

Kino was breathing slightly out of breath. The Ghost Driver at his waist turned into blue light spots like data and disappeared, revealing a slightly boyish face. His eyes, which were staring at the person opposite him, were exceptionally clear and bright.

Then he curled the corners of his mouth, tilted his head, and said, "Want to hit me again?"

He also has a belt.

Every bit of progress we can make is a step forward.

However, after glancing at him, Kamen Rider Decade also took out his Rider Card and deactivated his transformation. The young man in the red shirt arrogantly put one hand in his pocket and said unhurriedly, "I have a general understanding of your situation. That's enough for today."

After he finished speaking, a silver aurora curtain, flowing like water, appeared behind him and disappeared the next moment.

Kino sighed, "So what exactly did you understand...?"

Their battle is over.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Kamen Rider ZiO, who was the first to regain his senses, suddenly slashed down Another Ghost with his sword!

After Decade's departure, the situation on the field took a sharp turn for the Time Jackers. Both Another Ghost and Mazinger were completely overwhelmed by the Kamen Riders.

Or rather, it was only at this point that they had the opportunity to clearly see the situation on the battlefield.

Kamen Rider Ghost, having completely dealt with the few Eye Demon monsters, arrived at ZiO's side to provide support. After working together to repel Another Ghost, who was trying to resist, the two exchanged a glance and nodded.

Finish Time!

"Ghost!"

"Daikaigan!" Ore! Omega Drive! 』

Kamen Rider ZiO, having activated his ultimate attack, leaped into the air, while Kamen Rider Ghost, after the emblem of the giant eye appeared, flew into the air like a ghost.

The two Ghosts on this side also used Ghost's Knight Kick together.

However, they are united against external forces.

"Burn your life!"

With a loud shout from Kamen Rider Ghost, two Rider Kicks struck Another Ghost simultaneously, sending him flying backward in a deafening explosion, amidst billowing flames.

The alien Ghost, which crashed heavily to the ground, struggled for a moment, then flashed with light and returned to its human form, while the alien watch that had fallen off shattered with a bang.

Ghost the Outcast—Destroy!

……

Chapter 419 provides a general understanding ×

After eliminating the Ghost, history barely returned to its original course, and the difference was that they changed the fact that Makimura would die in the construction site accident.

However, if the historical differences are not closely related to Kamen Rider, then perhaps it's not a big deal.

Moreover, the appearance of Kamen Rider Decade will greatly accelerate the pace of history, and that direction is definitely correct.

Everything is going as he predicted.

Woz closed the Oma Zi-O calendar, his meaningful smile disappearing into the darkness of the Time-Space Realm.

……

……

Back in 2018, after bidding farewell to Tenkuji-no-Mikoto at the foot of the mountain of Daitenkuji Temple, Tokiwa Sougo and the others also headed towards Asuka-Wu-Do under the soft and beautiful sunset.

Although Kino was curious and wanted to stay at the Great Sky Temple to see how the map refreshed, he thought that when the new map came out, he would be completely disoriented.

That's really unnecessary.

"Wood……"

Tokiwa Sougo looked at the boy walking ahead and was about to say something, but just as he was about to call out his name, he quickly swallowed his words and turned back.

Then he skipped the formalities and said, "Um... I just heard that Kamen Rider say something about 'destroying this world,' what did that mean?"

Kino turned to look at him upon hearing this: "Kamen Rider Decade—Tsukasa Kadoya, he has a title called 'The Destroyer of the World,' which means that some of his powers can destroy the world."

"Really?" Tokiwa Sougo's eyes widened in surprise.

“If he defeats the Kamen Rider living in that world, then it is indeed possible, because his power can connect the world through the Kamen Rider,” Kino explained.

"Huh? So when he said he wanted to destroy this world, he meant he wanted to defeat me?" Tokiwa Sougo had actually learned to apply what he had learned to other situations.

"That's one way to think about it."

"Oh……"

Tokiwa Sougo was surprisingly calm.

After all, since becoming Kamen Rider ZiO, countless people have wanted to defeat him, not to mention that one guy has made this kind of thing his catchphrase.

—After the battle, Meikoin Geiz returned to the Nine-to-Five Hall first, without going with them to see Tenkuji Takeru off.

It was evening, and the early spring breeze carried a hint of coolness. The clouds on the horizon slowly faded from orange-red to gray-purple, and the remaining afterglow slanted down onto the top of his head, then reflected a sliver of orange light in those dark pupils.

This made the boy's eyes appear exceptionally bright, like a clear mirror, so bright that one could even clearly see the figure of the person opposite them.

Tokiwa Sougo turned his head to look at them, his gaze unconsciously drawn to those clear eyes, and then he subconsciously asked, "Then will you choose to help me?"

"Ok?"

Kino raised an eyebrow slightly, then smiled and said, "Of course, after all—"

He suddenly reached out and grabbed Tokiwa Sougo's cheek.

"I'm your father! Call me 'Dad' now!"

Tokiwa Sougo: "..."

Indeed, I shouldn't have asked.

What was he expecting just now?
