Chapter 289: Kadoya Kadoya's New Journey
Kawahara also knew this young man.
——Red Crossing.
The transformer of Kamen Rider Kiva, and unlike the Kotobuki who became the "king" in the parallel world, this one is obviously the grown-up Kotobuki who has never fought alongside Kadoya Shigenori.
The other party's reaction at this time seemed to be that he knew Kawahara, which reminded Kawahara of the Kiva world he had visited.
Is it that Red Cross?
Kadoya looked at Kawahara indignantly at this time: "What do you mean, you actually know this guy? So you two didn't plan to let me do these things from the beginning?!"
He felt an irritation of being arranged.
Because when Mitsuka Hai's world began to be destroyed, it was this young man in white who appeared and guided Kamen Rider Kadoya and Mitsuka Hai to embark on a journey to various Kamen Rider worlds, and said that only in this way could the world be saved.
Now that the world is no longer in danger of destruction, this person has indeed appeared again.
Kawahara was a little helpless. He did know him, but he really didn't interfere in the affairs between Akainu and Kado Kado.
Kawahara was about to explain when he thought of this, but Hongdu spoke first.
"No, I don't know him."
"..."
Kawahara was stunned.
He looked at Hongdu who was walking towards them. The latter just looked at Kawahara with curious eyes, as if she had seen him before but didn't recognize him.
Hongdu pretended to think and said, "About a year ago, when my father and I were dealing with King, you suddenly walked out of the lake next to us, and then suddenly disappeared! We were really scared at the time!"
Kawahara: "..."
He seemed to know which Red Cross this was.
So Kadoya Shi smiled sullenly again: "Walking out of the water suddenly? It really sounds like this guy's weird style!"
Kawahara was speechless for a moment. He looked at Hongdu, who was exactly the same as the one he met in another world, and felt a complicated emotion in his heart.
In another world, he had fought side by side with Hong Du and Hong Yin, and they could be considered "friends".
But at this moment, Hong Du had nothing to do with him except an accidental encounter.
Kadoya crossed his arms and said leisurely: "I didn't expect that you have been to so many Kamen Rider worlds!"
Kawahara didn't want to talk about this.
If possible, he actually doesn't want to travel through time.
After all, the more worlds he visited, the more teleportation points that connected to this world with him as the anchor point. However, the first two Kamen Rider worlds he came into contact with were ZiO and Decade...
As a result, the boxes were stacked full from the beginning...
Kadoya looked at Kawahara with some surprise when he didn't respond.
Perhaps sensing his inexplicably bad mood, Kazuto Kazuya then casually passed over the topic and looked at Hongdu who brought them here.
"Then what is your purpose?"
"I didn't expect that you could save those worlds in this way."
Hongdu smiled at him and looked up at the sky, only to see twenty or so Earths floating in the night sky, representing the world of Kamen Rider.
Those parallel worlds became real worlds.
Hong Du continued, "In order to invade the Kamen Rider world, the Great Shocker Organization used the power of you and your sister to create a parallel world. If you let the Great Shocker conspiracy go on, there will be two results."
Having said this, he paused, looked at them, and raised two fingers.
"The first result is that the parallel worlds controlled by Dai Shocker disappear, which is what you call rootless duckweed.
“The second result…
“That’s our world ending.
"Because if the parallel world wants to continue to exist, it will gradually replace our Knight World, causing our world to disappear, and eventually allowing Daishocker to achieve his goal of ruling all worlds.
"so……"
Hong Du stared at Kadoya Kado: "In order to protect our own world and to prevent Dai Shocker's conspiracy from succeeding, Decade, the purpose of my letting you embark on this journey is to let you destroy the Kamen Rider of the parallel world!"
The people who heard this were stunned.
Guang Xia Hai was the first to speak excitedly: "Wait! Why do you let the knights do these things? To destroy other people's worlds for the sake of their own world, is this still considered Kamen Rider? Even if Yusuke and the others' world is made up, they still exist in reality!"
The accused Hongdu smiled without minding: "Because, this is what Kadoya himself proposed."
Guang Xia Hai was stunned when he heard this, and remembered that Kazuto Kadoya was once the leader of the Great Shocker, so he widened his eyes and looked at him in condemnation.
Kazushi Kadoya reacted and quickly explained.
"I don't remember anything like this!"
"Ah... I don't know why you lost your memory. When I found you, even the Knight Card Box was not on you." Hongdu said innocently.
"..."
Kadoya touched the knight card box on his waist.
When he first met Hong Du, the other party was indeed puzzled about where his Decade drive had gone.
Hong Du then said: "You now understand why we have to do this, right? If we want to save the world of the two Kamen Riders, we can only use the power of Decade. This can be regarded as atonement for what you have done!"
Before figuring everything out, Kazuto Kadoya was indeed aiding and abetting the evil as a "Great Shocker Leader".
As for when the change began...
Kadoya doesn't remember such a thing either.
Although he remembered that he was once the leader of Dai Shocker, and also remembered Kadokawa Sayaka, there was still one incomplete memory.
He only remembered that he was defeated by a certain Kamen Rider. Maybe he accidentally failed when implementing the [Plan to Eliminate Kamen Rider].
After all, Kadoya Kadoya has always been a hypocritical and vicious person who likes to do great things quietly. Even when he is doing things to help others, he can still make him look arrogant.
Of course, it is also possible that this guy is really arrogant.
So it was not unfair for him to be beaten.
After explaining all this, Hongdu breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "Decade, although I still don't like you very much, those worlds were indeed saved by you. The current result is the best for you and me."
——Who cares whether you like it or not.
Kazushi Kadoya looked at him and curled his lips slightly.
Hong Du immediately said seriously: "The Kamen Riders in the parallel world already have their own stories. From now on, you can also start your own story - Kadoya Shi."
"My story has already begun, and my journey is my story!" Kazuto Kazuya said with his chin raised.
"Really? That's not bad~"
Hongdu smiled slightly, as if he had nothing more to say to Kadoya Kado, then he blinked and looked at Kawahara.
Kawahara: "..."
What else could there be to say between two strangers?
Hongdu thought for a moment and said, "Although I really don't know you, when I saw you, I felt that we might become very good friends!"
Hearing this, Kawahara was stunned for a moment and looked over.
"Why?" he finally asked.
"I don't know what to say."
Hong Du smiled calmly and said, "It feels like we have fought side by side before, so I want to trust you, but... you don't seem to be able to accept me like this."
Kawahara was speechless.
Although he expressed his feelings, Hongdu himself was not quite clear about "what kind of me" it was.
After looking seriously at Kawahara who did not respond, he smiled at Kadoya Kadoya and the others.
"Then, we'll see you later!"
After saying this, Hongdu raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
Snapped!
As the crisp sound fell, the scene in front of everyone's eyes changed again, from the city at night back to the manor with a clear blue sky.
Kawahara looked at the sky in front of him in a daze, recalled what Hongdu had just said, and lowered his eyes slightly.
Although they have the same face and similar experiences.
But different time and space mean different people.
So if two similar time and space begin to overlap, or the world's timeline falls into chaos, then some of the original things will inevitably be merged and replaced.
Kawahara couldn't help but imagine -
In another time and space, there are exactly the same Yusuke Godai and Kaoru Ichijo, but his story does not exist, and "Aguru" has never existed, which means that they have no common experiences.
Then it will be like Hongdu today.
Thinking of this, Kawahara suddenly realized that when those two identical people didn't know him at all - he couldn't even imagine how he would feel.
Could he treat them as the same person?
This is why Kawahara cannot communicate peacefully with "this" Azuman.
……
……
The next two days.
Kadoya Shigeki and Mitsuru Natsumi stayed in this manor temporarily waiting for Kadoya Sayo, after all, they had already promised to travel with each other.
But as a super homegirl who has stayed at home for ten years, Kadokaya Saya may need some psychological preparation to muster up the courage to go out into the world. Kawahara, who was sent back by Hongdu, also stayed, but he was particularly silent these two days.
Kazushi Kadoya also found that this person became a little strange.
He adjusted his camera and pressed the shutter button towards the man drinking coffee in the courtyard - and he was not stopped by the man's sudden appearance!
It's so weird...
After returning to this world, Kazuto Kazuya's photography skills are not so abstract anymore.
But there is one thing that Kadoya Kadoya is very concerned about.
He frowned at the unmoved person in the camera, then put away the camera, quietly took out the Decade drive and put it on his waist.
『KamenRide——Decade! 』
Kamen Rider Decade, who had transformed into the magenta Kamen Rider Decade, clapped his hands, picked up the knight card box from his waist, and pulled out the Almighty Kuuga's knight card.
"KamenRide——Kuuga!"
Kadoya transformed into Kamen Rider Kuuga.
But he grumbled with some dissatisfaction: "Tsk, that's not right..."
Kazushi then opened the Knight Card Box and looked at Kuuga's "Attack Control" and "Form Control" Knight Cards.
"I'm afraid that won't work..."
These are all Yusuke Onodera's Knight Cards.
Unconvinced, Kazuto Kadoya turned out all the cards in the knight card box. However, no matter how many times he counted, he regretfully discovered that there were no cards related to "Ultimate Kuuga".
Why on earth? !
Just when his heart was filled with regret.
Suddenly, a faint voice sounded in my ear.
"What do you want to do?"
“WOW——!!”
Kadoya Shi, who was hiding in the corner with a gloomy face and transforming, was startled. He turned around and saw Kawahara standing beside him with an expressionless face, his eyes fixed on the knight card in his hand.
Feeling guilty but calm, Kadoya opened the Decade Driver and turned back into a human form.
Then he pretended to be casual and said, "Hey, so you... you don't recognize me? Why don't I have any other cards of yours yet?"
Kawahara looked at him with a half-smile: "You are the destroyer of the world, and you were once the leader of the evil Dai Shocker. How could I possibly agree with someone like you?"
Hearing this, Kazushi Kadoya was stunned.
He may have tried to figure out the truth of Kawahara's words, but in the end he still felt a little unhappy.
"Hey! I saved the world!"
"In that case, I will recognize you after you learn to call other people's names~"
Kawahara said this and turned around and walked back to the tea table in the courtyard. As soon as he sat down and took a sip of coffee, he heard Kadoya Kadoya's voice behind him.
"That's it? --Kawahara?"
"puff……"
Kawahara almost spit out his coffee.
He turned his head and looked at Kazushi Kadoya who had a nonchalant look on his face, and didn't know what to complain about - could he actually put aside his tsundere nature for a knight card?
Kawahara looked at him with interest: "It still doesn't work. It sounds too perfunctory."
Hearing this, Kazushi Kadoya snorted.
He was sure that this guy was playing a trick on him!
Because the "Ultimate Kuuga" that Kawahara gave him personally was completely unusable. Kawahara had just left the previous second, and Kadoya Kadoya swiped the card the next second.
The result has no effect!
Not to mention allowing him to transform into the Ultimate Kuuga form, he doesn't even have the power!
This time, he was able to summon this guy because he had an idea and threw the ultimate card directly into the aurora curtain.
Thinking of this, Kadoya muttered: "So you didn't want to give me the power at all, but how did you do it?"
Are there any knight cards that cannot be controlled by Decade?
Kawahara said slowly: "I don't know, maybe it's because I don't want to, so I don't have it."
Anyway, he would never give his "Form Card" to Kazuya Kadoya to use - just thinking about the scene of Decade ripping open his leather case made his spine chill.
Kazushi Kadoya curled his lips, looked at the photos taken by the camera, and thought darkly in his heart - he will get this card one day!
However, after being interrupted by Kadoya Shi, Kawahara's originally melancholy mood improved a lot.
After he finished the rest of his coffee, Guang Xiahai happened to stick his head out from the second-floor balcony and shouted excitedly at the two of them.
"Hey! You two—"
……
Saya Kadokawa has packed her luggage and made up her mind, ready to step out of this world that has closed her off for ten years.
Kadoya looked at her with a faint smile: "Are you ready? Then let's go!"
"No."
However, Kadokawa Saya shook her head and said seriously: "I have made up my mind. I want to travel alone and not with you guys, brother."
The two were immediately surprised when they heard this. Even Guang Xiahai, who had been with her for the past two days, did not expect that Kadokawa Sayaka had this plan.
Kadoya asked with concern: "Really? Can you do it alone?"
Kadokawa Sayoya smiled and said, "I have decided that I will try it by myself, so... I used to watch my brother leave, but today it is your turn to watch me leave!"
As for whether they would encounter danger when traveling alone, this might be a challenge for the Kadoya siblings who possess special powers.
Now that he knew her determination, Kazushi Kadoya smiled and nodded in approval.
"Okay, I wish you a pleasant journey!"
"I'm leaving~"
Kadokami Saya waved at them with a smile, then turned and walked towards the door.
After personally opening the heavy door, she embarked on her own journey and disappeared in front of the three people in the flowing light.
"That's great. Xiaoye will definitely be able to create her own story!" Guang Xiahai smiled with relief.
"In that case, let's go back to the photo studio."
Kamen Rider also has no intention of stopping his journey. Although the crisis in the parallel world has been resolved, the world of Kamen Rider is more than just that.
He felt that he could gain more knight power, and then defeat that guy himself, and get the knight card of "Ultimate Kuuga" with his own strength!
Kazushi Kadoya was eager to try, and summoned an aurora curtain to pass over the three of them.
The familiar living room of Guang Photo Studio appeared in front of him. Guang Xiahai was overjoyed and turned around to look for Guangrong Jiro.
When the Kamen Rider War began, her grandfather Koeijiro suddenly turned into Dr. Death. After the battle, he returned to normal and returned here, but Mitsu Natsumi was still a little worried.
After all, this matter is really too weird...
……
The world is peaceful and sunny.
Bright sunshine shines into the living room through the window.
Kazushi Kadoya glanced around, stretched lazily feeling relaxed, then turned around and sat down at the tea table by the window.
The curtain hanging on the wall still shows the picture of Kadoya's villa. This was the last world they arrived at, and also the point where Kadoya recovered his memory.
But this is definitely not the end of the journey - after all, there seems to be a lot of curtains rolled up above.
So what will the next world be like?
While Kazushi Kadoya was leisurely thinking with his chin supported, he glanced at someone who was about to go to the tea room to fend for himself, and suddenly he had an idea.
"Hey...Kawahara, don't you have to go back to your world?" Kazuto Kadoya asked.
Kawahara said without turning his head: "It's not necessary for now, because I have been exiled from that world."
Kadoya: “…Huh?”
Hearing this, Kazushi Kadoya was immediately piqued. He stood up with shining eyes and followed him to the tea room, asking with a gloating look on his face.
"Really? In that case, why don't we go to your world together next time!"
"no--!"
However, unexpectedly, Kawahara suddenly turned around and shouted, and his sudden fierce look startled Kadoya.
The tea room suddenly became quiet.
The two looked at each other in silence for a while.
Kawahara realized that his emotions seemed a little too extreme, and Kazushi Kadoya seemed to realize something. He pursed his lips and turned away as if nothing had happened.
"Forget it, there's nothing to see anyway."
"..."
Kawahara looked at his leaving back, hesitant to speak, and for a moment he couldn't think of anything else to say.
Because he really...
Decade is not welcome.
