Chapter 163: Convicted by the Power of Light

Rumble——!
Under the sky filled with dark clouds, deafening thunder could be heard in the distance, and the road leading to unknown mountains was filled with howling winds.

Click click click...

The vision became darker as we got closer to Dengrong Mountain. The concrete slabs on the road began to vibrate slightly, and huge cracks spread all the way from the foot of the mountain, directly blocking the road for cars to pass.

Yashiro Aoi braked quickly and jumped out of the car.

She turned her head and looked around. She could vaguely see pieces of debris floating in the air. The concrete ground under her feet was shaking slightly and falling apart. It seemed that some incredible force was guiding all these changes.

"Shoichi..."

After looking at the changes around him with a shocked expression, Yashiro Lan turned his gaze to the foot of the mountain ahead.

Then she ran without hesitation.

"Yashiro - don't do anything stupid, come back!"

The G3 team members who followed her because they were worried that she would act without authorization shouted at her back, but this did not stop her for a moment. Yashiro Ai's back soon merged into the dark world where a storm was about to come.

……

"Boom!"

The Magenta Knight who dropped from the sky kicked the shuttle to the ground, blasting both Dark Kuuga and Gills to the sides.

But when Gills lay on the ground without moving for a long time, Darksky stood up again without any ripples, and the ground around him began to shake, and pieces of concrete slabs floated up.

Under the pervasive terrifying force, the surrounding ant soldiers chirped and turned into pieces of black particles and dissipated.

Venerable Ant could not help but retreat in fear. Venerable Buffalo, who was on guard against the G3-X armor, seemed to sense something and instinctively stopped his action and stepped back a distance, staring at the dark figure nervously and tremblingly.

Click, click, click...

More and more fragments are reassembled by molecules.

I was fortunate enough to witness this when I was dealing with the wolf clan Gurongi. A jet-black steel needle slowly condensed in the air.

Two people knew very well how terrible the destruction would be if this thing exploded, but at that time, Sora was still rational, and this time it seemed to be a desperate act.

Even the monsters were disbanded, it was scary.

Decade clenched his fist and rushed forward again, but in an instant, he was knocked away by the sudden palm of Jekyō Kurogane.

Bang!
Kadoya Shi, who fell heavily to the ground, could not help but sneer: "This guy... is really hard to deal with when he goes crazy. I really should let Xia Mikan see... this guy should be the destroyer of the world."

As he spoke, he opened the Knight Card Box and took a look, but the "Final Driving Attack" just now was useless. Kazuya Kazuya really couldn't think of any other power that could stop Dark Kuuga.

So what was that guy calling him for?
You don't really think he can beat him, do you?

Kawahara had come to Gills again, but looking at Gills lying motionless on the ground, he did not move this time.

Just staring quietly at the figure on the ground.

——Do you want to kill him yourself?
Kawahara repeated this thought in his mind, not asking himself, but asking the will in the darkness that instinctively controlled him.

——You can't bear it so you let me come?

——Because he is also human.

As the ground crumbled, a gigantic obelisk-shaped steel needle several dozen meters high had taken shape in the sky. The aura of ultimate power filled the air, waiting for this destructive energy to be completely released.

A cyclone raged through the area.

Yashiro Ai, who was running breathlessly all the way, looked at the dark pillar in the sky, and his eyes instantly found the figure of Ashikawa Shoichi below - even though it was in the shape of a monster.

But she recognized it at first sight.

"Shoichi!"

Yashiro Lan pounced forward, and when he found that Ashikawa Shoichi was motionless, he quickly opened his arms to block Gills, and looked into the pair of dark red compound eyes in front of him without fear.

"I won't let you hurt him again!"

No matter which parallel world it is in, Yashiro Lan is undoubtedly very strong.

When she is a criminal of the "Unidentified Lifeform Investigation Team", she will not only hide behind Yusuke Onodera and be protected, but she can even help Yusuke Onodera quickly familiarize himself with the battle after becoming "Kuga" and protect his identity from causing trouble due to exposure.

Here, as a developer of G3, she also developed the G3-X armor on her own, still to let Ashikawa Shoichi understand that she is not just someone who can be protected.

--"elder sister?!"

Yusuke Onodera was shocked to see Yashiro Ai appear here. He propped himself up from the ground after being beaten and rushed over quickly.

"Sister! Take Mr. Shoichi away from here!"

"You...Yusuke?"

Yashiro Ai was stunned and looked at Onodera Yusuke who was still wearing the G3-X armor.

Kawahara was originally looking at Yashiro Ai.

The "Iron Needle" that was ready to go in the air stopped because of the only pure human on the field. The dark instinct that controlled him gradually faded away, and then a blue armored helmet squeezed into his field of vision.

Yusuke Onodera took off his G3-X armor because the damage to the armor would affect the wearer, and he was now covered in bruises.

But when the "important person" in his heart encounters a crisis, Yusuke Onodera's extremely firm and bright eyes can ignore all injuries.

"Kawahara-senpai!"

Onodera Yusuke said seriously: "In fact, I have always been afraid of this power, but I never want to destroy the world in order to destroy one person. I just want to protect my sister's smile... everyone's smile... and Kawahara-senpai's smile!"

Kawahara's eyes moved slightly, his dark red compound eyes flickered with light, and a hint of clarity appeared. Yusuke Onodera in front of him was reflected in the huge compound eyes.

The red light that was originally inconspicuous in the darkness now slowly became brighter.

Yusuke Onodera took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and made the transformation pose that almost every generation of "Kuga" habitually did.

"So please watch! My——transformation!"

The Agur Belt appeared as he wished.

In the rapidly rising energy atmosphere, the almighty red Kuuga instantly covered Onodera Yusuke's figure, and a pair of huge red compound eyes lit up as it stared at the almost identical dark Kuuga opposite him.

Yashiro Aoi, who was blocked behind, widened his eyes in surprise. He obviously didn't expect that this newcomer who just joined the G3 team would have such a side to him.

Suddenly, she realized that she was the only normal person present... and Gills, who was lying silently beside her, moved his fingers slightly at this moment.

The dark Kuuga remained calm. Onodera Yusuke looked at him steadily and raised his hand to clench his fist.

"Please, Kawahara-senpai, please stop!"

He shouted with indescribable complex emotions, took a step forward, and instantly gathered energy in his fist, punching towards the dark sky that was close at hand!
Bang!
Kawahara suddenly blocked his fist with his palm.

Yusuke Onodera was startled, and felt that he was being held tightly and unable to move. Then, Jet Black Kuuga turned his hand and grabbed his wrist, and in an instant he was thrown out by a huge force!

"Bam—"

The red Kuuga slammed heavily on the uneven ground, rolled several times, and finally fell in front of the squatting Kamen Rider Decade.

Kadoya looked at him and said, "What? I thought you were going to turn black too."

Yusuke Onodera: "..."

He can no longer turn black, and Yusuke Onodera knows this very well.

But it was just a setback. Yusuke Onodera quickly cheered up and got up. He shouted with the burning belief that he must stop the opponent. He rushed forward bravely again and punched at the back of the dark Kuuga!
Kawahara raised his hand and caught the fist without turning his head. This time, he did not throw Onodera Yusuke out directly, but twisted his fist to force the opponent to twist his movements. After stumbling to half kneel on the ground, he casually shook off his fist. Onodera Yusuke was thrown away and half-prone on the ground due to inertia, but he soon stood up again and attacked the side of the dark Kuuga with a rising dragon punch!

Kawahara suddenly stepped on his raised chest and pushed him back to the ground!

"Oh!"

A circle of dust instantly spread on the ground.

Yusuke Onodera groaned. The difference in strength made it impossible for him to resist. However, he had no intention of giving up and kept struggling to break free from the suppression.

"Yusuke!"

Yashiro Ai exclaimed, and she quickly stood up from half-crouching beside Gills, staring firmly at the dark Kuuga in front of her.

"No matter who you are! I understand everything. Yusuke fought with the idea of ​​making you smile again! If you are really friends, then don't do this again!"

"..."

Kawahara slowly moved his feet away and said softly in an emotionless voice: "He can't fight."

"No one is born to fight!"

Yashiro Lan said sternly, "No one wants to fight! We are all trying to protect something, so we are fighting so desperately."

Kawahara tilted her head slightly and looked at Gills who was silently getting up behind her: "…Protecting something?"

"Yes! To protect what—"

At this time, Kadoya Shiraha's voice also sounded.

He walked over and said, "If fighting is to protect something, then Ashikawa Shoichi is fighting to protect someone important to him, and Miss Yashiro created G3 to protect Ashikawa Shoichi. Of course, just like this guy is transforming and fighting now, it's also to protect your smile!"

Kadoya said slowly, pulling up Onodera Yusuke who had just propped himself up on the ground, and then he continued to look at Kawahara in front of him.

The pair of bright green compound eyes reflected each other and the dark red compound eyes looked at each other.

"I also said at the beginning that if this guy's fighting belief is to make others smile, then I will protect his smile, so you are also my target now." Kamen Rider Kadoya said softly.

"Will there be a buff after you say this? Can it be implemented now?" Kawahara said suddenly.

"……what?"

The change in topic left Kadoya confused.

Then he was suddenly pulled in front of Kawahara, and two scarlet stingers just passed by Yashiro Ai's sides, one on the left and one on the right, and tied him up tightly.

Kadashi: "???"

Yashiro Ai was startled and immediately turned around, then walked up and grabbed Gills' arm!
"Shoichi! Stop it!"

Gills lowered his head and saw Yashiro Ai, and immediately seemed to realize something. He quickly released the stinger, covered his head with both hands and stepped back, letting out a painful roar, and then the sharp blades and heel claws on his body slowly retracted into his body.

Gills' body slowly transformed into a human form. Ashikawa Shoichi, covered in cold sweat, fell to the ground in exhaustion. Yashiro Lan quickly squatted down and supported him.

Kawahara lowered his head and looked at Ashikawa Shoichi: "The evolution of the power of light is painful and cruel, so humans don't need this power. Ashikawa Shoichi, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Asukawa Shoichi pulled the corners of his mouth weakly, revealing a somewhat sarcastic smile.

He looked up at the dark Kuuga: "Of course I didn't choose to have this kind of power..."

Kawahara took a step forward with a slight look in his eyes.

But the next moment, Ashikawa Shoichi said again: "But, like that kid said, if fighting is to protect important people, I don't mind having this power to protect what I want to protect."

Yashiro Lan immediately said: "Shoichi, G3-X can also be used..."

Luhe Xiangyi suddenly grabbed her hand and interrupted her, then gave her a gentle smile: "Then let's fight together. I will protect you and you can protect me."

Yashiro's blue eyes widened slightly, staring at him, his dark pupils becoming as clear and bright as water waves.

When the two of them smiled at each other with a mutual understanding, Kazuto Kazuya, who was left aside, suddenly realized something. He opened the knight card box and took out three new cards from it.

——Agito.

Hmm? Agito?

While Kadoya was wondering, Ashikawa Shoichi had already pushed Yashiro Ai away and stood up again. He stared at the dark Kuuga in front of him with a firm face, as if he had made up his mind. A shining light bloomed from his waist to his whole body.

This time there was no pain or struggle, just like the sun that had successfully transformed, the earth-colored "Agito" replaced Gills' previous posture of Ashikawa Shoichi.

He became the real Agito!

Kawahara did not stop his choice this time.

Although the compromise method that Kawahara thought of after calming down just now was to try to absorb the power of light in the opponent's body, this would not only solve the problem of the power of light but also not kill the opponent - if Ashikawa Shoichi was sure not to accept this power.

But obviously he still embarked on the path of rebellion.

——Rebellion?
At this moment, a strong feeling of suffocation came over me. When I saw Agito being born in front of me, it was as if I felt something painful and angry. The boundless rage burned my reason uncontrollably.

Kawahara suddenly fell to one knee. He tried to calm himself down and suppress the strength and violent instinct in his body.

——This is not something that makes me feel painful.

If this power exists to protect, then what is there to worry about?

Shoichi Ashikawa has demonstrated his own transformation.

He should not be convicted of the Light.

The darkness on Kawahara's body faded away quickly like the tide, like a sculpture without the ink, and he returned to the appearance of a white newborn Kuuga, and then transformed back into a human form.

The steel needles that were ready to strike in the air also dissipated because of his thoughts, and dissipated like wind under the dark sky with dark clouds. The huge amount of energy that was forcibly dispersed rolled in the clouds with lightning.

The wind and rain that had been brewing for a while suddenly arrived because of this unexpected change. Several people present looked at the strange phenomenon in the sky with some surprise.

Kawahara was sweating profusely as he supported himself on the ground, and his rapid breathing was not much better than that of Ashikawa Shoichi just now.

At this moment, his heart was beating like a drum, and the feeling of anger was still lingering, but he was able to control it with his own understanding.

"Senior Kawahara, how are you?" Yusuke Onodera quickly regained his human form and ran over to show concern.

"..."

Kawahara glanced at him in confusion. "The enemy hasn't been completely eliminated yet. Are you being too careless to cancel your transformation now, or are you just being lazy? I told you that you don't know how to fight."

Yusuke Onodera: "..."

So is there a sensible choice between these two?

……

　……

　　My opinion on the "power of darkness in humans" - the sheep may have the strength to attack the sheepdog over time, but no matter what, they have no power to resist the shepherd.

　　That is, no matter how powerful human civilization is, it can never be stronger than the gods that raise them, and the actions of the power of light are probably to get the sheep away from the shepherd's control and escape from the sheepfold (there's an inexplicable feeling of stealing sheep).

　　The settings will be supplemented in the official chapter of Agito, and this chapter lays the foundation for Kawahara's future attitude towards Agito.
