Chapter 25 I Want to Fight Together

13:17pm.

Aokigahara where the battle took place.

After Xun Ichijo hung up a phone call, he turned to look at the man who was bending over and searching for something in the sinkhole.

"I just received a call from the Nagano Prefectural Police Department. They said... the body of that super ancient man... is missing?" Kaoru Ichijo said hesitantly.

"I know. I sent it back to the Jiulangyue ruins."

Kawahara, who was not far away, responded without even turning his head.

Ichijo Kaoru: “…”

The loose hair that reached the shoulders fell from the forehead, blocking the face of the person who was squatting there with his head down, making it difficult for Xun Ichijo to see the other person's expression, but he did notice that this person seemed a little more tired than before.

So after hesitating and wanting to say something again, he finally said nothing and just walked down the pit and came in front of Kawahara.

"Do you need my help?"

"Just help me keep an eye out for the Metropolitan Police Department to see if they've taken similar metal fragments from here, but this place..."

Kawahara said this, raising his hand and pressing the ground.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Other Gurongi must have been here during those two days, and perhaps they have been picked up as well."

——The fragment of Daguba’s Kidron belt that he had blown up before. As expected, there should still be a piece of it left at the scene.

But now I can't find it.

I don’t know if it was picked up by the Gurongi who took Daguba away that day, and I don’t know which monster it was.

Kawahara's impression of most Gurongi is based on the abilities they demonstrate at the moment, otherwise he is mostly blind.

He thought about it and felt that a piece of belt fragment should not give rise to any extremely powerful enemy.

No matter what, it won't be stronger than Daguba a few days ago.

This period of time is a good time to look for it.

"Forget it, there should be nothing here. Let's go back to the Jiulangyue ruins. I went there last time, and apart from one thing, there is basically no other danger." Kawahara stood up and said.

"Is it that black pillar, or..." Xun Ichijo paused.

"If Miss Enokida has already told you, then it must be that thing. Since you are here, why not dig it up?" Kawahara continued.

The golem tissue turned into stone and shattered in the ruins.

Since the fragments were somewhat scattered and their appearance was that of irregular stones, the people who cleaned up the Jiulangyue ruins did not pay much attention to them.

But Kawahara could still feel a little of its will.

The will to get him for free...

……

So they stayed in Nagano Prefecture for another two days, circled the approximate location of the golime fragments and asked the research department to dig them up, and then Kawahara returned to Tokyo with Kaoru Ichijo.

If I don't go back to Tokyo, not to mention that Kaoru Ichijo is concerned about the war on the front line, I'm afraid Yusuke Godai will also want to run away to Nagano Prefecture.

So two days later.

Scientific Police Institute.

Kawahara was sent back here again, along with his new motorcycle, and he also got lunch and a new hairband from Hikaru Enoda's place.

And that afternoon, Yusuke Godai came to pick him up.

"Mr. Ichijo has already told me the situation. After all, the Scientific Police Research Institute is a research institute that deals with that kind of stuff, so it's difficult for it to take in people... Well, it doesn't matter! You can live with me from now on, I'm ready!" said Yusuke Godai with a bright smile.

"I remember that you seem to be staying in someone else's store now..." Kawahara looked at him.

"Wow - that's amazing. Mr. Kawahara even knows about this. Could it be that Mr. Ichijo told you?" Godai Yusuke asked curiously.

"……no."

And I didn’t know it from reading information, it was purely the impression from my previous life.

……

Yusuke Godai is the type of child whose parents died early and who had to grow up to be the head of the family. His experience is somewhat similar to Rick's. He and his sister Minoru Godai have been dependent on each other for life, and then he accepted help from an uncle.

Although he is an adventurer by profession, Yusuke Godai also has a place to stay in Tokyo - PolePole Cafe.

The owner of the cafe is named Shikadama Saburo, who is a senior and good friend of Yusuke Goshiro's father. He once took care of the two siblings and was affectionately called "Dad" by Yusuke Goshiro.

The cafe was not very crowded in the afternoon.

Shikadama Saburo was sitting behind the bar cutting the latest newspaper when Yusuke Godai ran in happily.

"Dad! This is Mr. Kawahara!"

"what?"

Shikidama Saburo looked up, looking a little confused. After staring at Kawahara who came in from behind for two seconds, he suddenly realized, "So that's it! It's Yusuke's friend!"

Kawahara nodded politely: "Hello."

Then, Shikatamaburo started to be curious in a very familiar way: "Did you and Yusuke know each other when you were adventuring together? I've never heard that he has a friend like you before. He even cleaned up his room these past two days and said that a new neighbor would move in. He has become much more enthusiastic. By the way, are you planning to rest in Tokyo for a while first..."

When the store manager starts mumbling, even though he speaks slowly, his words come out like a rapid-fire cannon without stopping.

Kawahara couldn't help but look at Godai Yusuke.

The latter smiled, walked over and pushed Shitama Saburo's shoulder, forcing people's attention to continue to be drawn to the newspaper.

"Alright, alright! Dad, we can talk about the rest later. I'm going to take Mr. Kawahara upstairs first!"

As he said this, he excitedly ran up the stairs next to the bar and motioned Kawahara to follow him.

Kawahara's gaze lingered on the newspaper spread out on the bar counter for a while, and after scanning the news related to "the battle between unidentified life form No. 4 and other unidentified life forms", he retracted his gaze.

Yusuke Godai lives in the attic on the second floor of the cafe.

Then, during this period of time, half of the attic was cleaned up by Yusuke Godai.

"This is it, is it ok?" Yusuke Godai asked expectantly.

"no problem."

Kawahara looked at the wooden beds placed on both sides.

The bed on the other side looked like it had just been made not long ago, and considering that Yusuke Godai had "2000 skills" and was able to put them into practice, it was possible that he had made this new bed himself.

"If you need anything else, I can help! After all, I also have a lot of things I want to ask Mr. Kawahara!" Yusuke Godai said with a smile while sitting on the bed on the other side.

"If it's about Kuuga, I can tell you anything you want to know." Kawahara said.

"Hmm..." Hearing this, Godai Yusuke leaned back with his hands and tilted his head as if thinking about something. Then he looked at Kawahara expectantly and asked, "Then - why did Mr. Kawahara transform into Kuuga to fight?"

Yusuke Godai's expression was sincere and concerned.

Kawahara: "..."

This situation was definitely a case of Xun reporting it to the police! Because I got a not very good response from him that day.

Although the police officer did not continue to ask about the situation on his side because of Zero's intelligence, he obviously handed the matter over to another person.

After all, before this, he was diagnosed by a forensic doctor with a disease that could easily get out of control: "If the nerve commands sent by the belt spread completely to the brain, it would turn into a combat weapon that only knew how to kill."

Although Kawahara felt that he was much better after waking up this time.

But the desire to fight has indeed become stronger.

And there was no extra reason - it was just the pure desire to fight and kill Daguba.

Therefore, facing the questions raised by Yusuke Godai at this moment.

Kawahara sat opposite and said, "It's just that because Gurongi invaded the village, I had to become a warrior and fight. There is no special reason. This time I fought only because the opponent was Gurongi."

It was just for survival at the beginning.

If you don’t fight you will die, and if you fight you might also die, so you might as well fight first to satisfy yourself.

Godai Yusuke looked at him and asked, "Mr. Kawahara, do you hate fighting?"

"I don't like it, but I don't hate it either. After all, some fists can really achieve the goals you want, especially when there are enemies on the opposite side that need to be eliminated with fists." Kawahara said.

"That's it..."

After Wujiro Yusuke nodded thoughtfully, he suddenly sat up straight, a bright smile appeared on his face, and then he gave him a thumbs up.

"Then it's good to keep it like this!"

"Huh?" Kawahara looked at him in a daze for a moment.

"I don't like fighting either, but when I saw people suffering tragedy because of the 'unconfirmed life form', I understood that some battles must be fought, so I have to fight too, because I am 'Kuaga'!" said Yusuke Godai seriously.

"..."

There's no particular reason either.

Just because he became the powerful "Kuga", the responsibility of fighting was taken up by Yusuke Godai.

Kawahara looked at him for a long moment before saying, "Officer Ichijo probably doesn't want you to say these things."

Godai Yusuke scratched his head and said, "Mr. Ichijo doesn't want any of us to fight, but that's impossible to guarantee. And I also believe that Mr. Kawahara will take the initiative to fight this time, and there must be a necessary reason."

Kawahara looked out the window and said, "Dagubah is an enemy I must get rid of, so if I find his whereabouts next time, I will still take the initiative to fight."

"Daguba... is it 'Zero'?" asked Yusuke Godai.

"Well, that's him."

"If that's the case, I want to go too!"

Godai Yusuke said firmly: "Zero is also an enemy I want to defeat. I don't want to see anyone get hurt because of him!"

Kawahara looked at him when he heard that, and Godai Yusuke's face once again showed an optimistic and bright smile.

"And if I were there, if Mr. Kawahara really lost control during the battle as Dr. Tsubaki said, I could stop you from continuing the destruction!" he said seriously.

"Have you seen Aokigahara?" Kawahara suddenly asked.

"Mr. Ichijo has already shown me the scene."

But Godai Yusuke still said without hesitation: "So I know what a terrible enemy that is, and I want to face it together with Mr. Kawahara!"

Kawahara was speechless.

Therefore, this kid never even considered the possibility that he would be "unable to stop this."

Perhaps it’s because Yusuke Godai is the kind of person who will try his best to fulfill his promises, so he has never disappointed those who trust him, and will never let anyone down in him.

And in fact, he did it every time.

Kawahara admires such people from the bottom of his heart.

Perhaps it is precisely because he cannot do it that he particularly admires and envies those who persevere. Just like when he was a child, he also thought about becoming a "Kamen Rider", but this kind of persistence was completely forgotten after just a few years.

Even though he has really transformed into a "Kamen Rider", Kawahara doesn't feel much excitement or pride.

Because he didn't have the mood to stick to it.

Looking at the real Godai Yusuke in front of him, Kawahara chuckled and said, "Okay, in this case, as long as Daguba is defeated, I will try my best not to take the initiative to fight in the future."

Godai Yusuke's eyes lit up: "Really? So, I can fight with you, right?"

"Okay, I'll tell you." Kawahara nodded.

"that would be great!"

Yusuke Godai immediately smiled very warmly and gave him a thumbs up again.

He is very good at giving people the power of optimism and trust. Even though Kawahara has not been with him for a long time and most of his understanding of him is through comparison of impressions, at this moment, he can't help but be infected by such a smile.

So Kawahara also reached out and gave him a thumbs up.

Then he said, "Call Officer Ichijo. We need a quiet place to teach you how to use the power of Kuga."

Kawahara just saw the newspaper on the bar counter. Sora already knows how to fight with the Blue Dragon Stick, but it seems that he has not yet developed the green Pegasus form.

I still remember that the first time Yusuke Godai accidentally transformed into the Pegasus form, he was directly forced to return to Kuuga's newborn form. Kawahara felt it necessary to let him adapt in advance.

Yusuke Godai didn't feel anything strange when he heard this. He was even a little excited.

"Great! I always feel like Kuuga still has a lot of power that hasn't been used yet. When I'm fighting, some incomprehensible images pop up in my mind from time to time - wait, I'll make a phone call now!"

Since Yusuke Godai's cell phone broke, he had not bought a new one, so he could only run to the first floor excitedly and contact Kaoru Ichijo using the store's landline phone.

Kawahara watched him go downstairs, looked at the sunlight outside the window, and then materialized the Agur Belt.

The cracks on it are small but clearly visible.

But Kawahara really wasn't that worried, because Daguba's injuries would only be more serious than his, and he had already absorbed a fragment of the "Kidron Belt" at the Kuroyama ruins.

So it is impossible for Daguba's belt to be intact.

As long as the opponent cannot become the ultimate form, Kawahara has the confidence that he and Yusuke Godai can kill this final BOSS in advance.

This is what he wants to do most right now.
