"I'm afraid, officer, I can't go with you." Gai smirked as he turned his back on a suited man, walking away leisurely.
"Amatsu Gai, do you want to add resisting arrest to your list of crimes?" The suited man asked diplomatically.
"List of crimes, as far as I know, I am 100%, no 1000% innocent, officer." Gai waved his hand, still walking away from the suited man.
"Amatsu Gai, you are under arrest, for illegal experimentation, illegal surgery, illegal use of robotic sentries, and resisting arrest. "
The suited man declared before rushing towards the leisurely walking CEO. Suddenly, the man materialized golden armor around his body and also materialized a translucent flaming bird before disappearing.
"Calling all units, Amatsu Gai, is on the loose," The suited man relayed on his communicator. "He materialized some sort of golden armor and summoned a bird before disappearing."
"A Rider." A voice from the communicator commented. "Tomari, he's yours."
"Roger that!" The voice, identified as Tomari, agreed.
Not more than a moment later, a red and black Honda NSX sped past the suited man and chased after the golden-armored suspect.
"Let's do this, Belt-san." Tomari Shinnosuke was driving his Honda, in pursuit of a man in golden armor, that they had just found dangling on a bird energy construct."
"Okay, let's start our engines." The belt replied, showing a closed-eye smiley face on the LED.
"Henshin!"
"Drive! Type: Speed!"
Red and black armor materialized around Shinnosuke's body as he continued to drive in pursuit of one Amatsu Gai. He soon slammed on the car's accelerator and overtook Gai's golden form moments later and intercepted the flying Rider, via the translucent bird, by stopping the car in front of the suspect.
"Amatsu Gai, stop!" Shinnosuke declared. "You are under arrest for illegal surgery, illegal detention, illegal experimentation, and illegal use of robotic sentries."
"And who are you supposed to be, Mr. Kamen Rider-wannabe?"
"K-kamen Rider wannabe?!" Shinnosuke indignantly exclaimed.
"Focus, Shinnosuke!" Drive's belt admonished showing a frowning emoji on its LED.
"Right." Shinnosuke coughed.
"It doesn't matter who you are, Mr. wannabe, just know that I'm 1000% innocent," Amatsu scoffed. "However, seeing as you are a Kamen Rider wannabe, I will give my 1000% in defending myself." He stated before rushing towards the other Rider.
With Thousand Jacker in hand, Amatsu raised it above his head and attempted to slam it on his opponent.
Shinnosuke was quick to defend himself with a sword, which had a steering wheel as part of the grip.
"We can now add harassment of a police officer to your list of crimes." The Tomari quipped before deflecting the weapon away from him.
Amatsu retaliated by attempting more slashes toward his enemy, all of which were blocked by the sword with a unique handle.
Both Drive and Thousar traded blows against each other, none of them giving the other an inch.
"Let's go with Hunter, Shinnosuke." The belt advised.
"Right!"
Drive kicked Thouser's gut and put some distance between them before loading a police shift car onto his bracelet.
"Tire Change!" The belt announced as the tire on Drive's chest removed itself from the Rider and attacked the golden enemy as another tire attached itself to Drive, all the while giving him a jail-cell-like shield. "Justice Hunter!"
Gai was caught off when he was hit by a black tire as soon as he got his bearings from getting kicked. He immediately constructed a purple scorpion tail, which he used to attack his enemy and controlled it with his jackhammer weapon.
Drive parried and blocked the scorpion tail's attacks with his jail-cell-like shield. He blocked every strike as he slowly but surely approached his golden opponent.
While Drive was able to slowly approach Gai, his attacks were relentless that his opponent wasn't able to do anything besides walk forward and defend himself from his onslaught of attacks. He then stabbed his sword to the ground, spun in place, and created a dome of icy wind that froze everything inside it, excluding himself and the sword.
Shinnosuke was able to throw his shield towards Gai, as soon as the golden Rider stabbed his weapon to the ground, however, the shield froze in mid-air as it spun, only supported by a pillar of ice that originated from one of the nearby cars.
Drive also took damage from the icy wind-dome, as the spinning actually expelled some cold air outwards, damaging him.
With his opponent disarmed and partially frozen, Gai took this opportunity and rushed at the enemy, Thousand Jacker in hand, and relentlessly attacked the red-armored Rider.
Shinnosuke was quick to summon his discarded steering-wheel sword and defended himself from the golden Rider's attacks.
Thouser was dominating the fight, with Drive on the defensive.
Suddenly, Drive dodged a sword swing, throwing off the golden Rider's momentum, and smashed the ice pillar that supported his shield and threw it upwards, before it could even land on the ground.
The next thing Amatsu knew was that he was inside a jail cell with the enlarged shield acting as the jail's roof.
"I guess even a thousand percent can't beat TMPD's Kamen Rider," Shinnosuke quipped after jumping backward, in an effort not to get trapped inside Hunter's cell.
"Let's see about that." Amatsu growled as he attempted to escape by slashing at the jail cell only to get shocked.
Amatsu did not mind the mild shocks he's been receiving; he's received a lot worse shocks from when Yaiba defected away from him. He continued hacking at the seemingly electrified jail cell.
Tomari growled as he observed that the cell was showing signs of giving out from Amatsu's strikes.
"Like I'd let you!"
Drive twisted the knob on his belt after pressing a button on his bracelet as he got in a crouching stance.
"Full throttle: Hunter!" Drive's belt announced.
Two wheels appeared on both sides of the red-armored Rider that launched him forward, two more tires appeared in front of him and launched the red Rider upwards as six more wheels appeared and launched him back to his starting position.
The first pair of tires then launched him towards Amatsu, who was still relentlessly hacking and smashing on the jail cell and pulled back his hand before landing the devastating Rider punch on Thouser.
Kamen Rider Thouser's cell broke, and launched him to a nearby wall, where his golden armor vanished, revealing the bruised face of ZAIA's and Hiden Intelligence's CEO.
"You will regret this!" Amatsu threatened.
"Save it." Shinnosuke dropped his transformation and confiscated the CEO's driver. "Amatsu Gai, you are under arrest for a multitude of crimes, from human experimentation to illegal use of humagears, to terroristic acts…"
Shinnosuke continued the standard spiel for Amatsu's arrest as he cuffed both of the CEO's wrists behind him and dragged him towards his red car.
All charges were dropped, much to Shinnosuke's and everyone at TMPD's dismay. However, orders were orders.
"It didn't even take an hour after being arrested for him to freed." Shinnosuke growled.
"Some of them are bribed by Amatsu's pockets, I guarantee it," Gou grumbled. "Hiden's former CEO and that rapper humagear proved it on live TV."
"Gou!" Kiriko called out. "Don't say things like that, we don't want you dragged back in prison!"
"I did not say any names!" Gou defended himself. "Besides, tell me if I was wrong."
"I can never confirm nor deny that, you know that Gou."
"Hai, hai."
"How's your Chase project?" Shinnosuke asked.
"It's getting there, slowly but surely." Gou gave a hopeful response.
"I can only imagine Brain's and Heart's reactions once they see how far the world has come." Kiriko offered.
"I have to say, the Roidmudes were an advanced piece of technology," Gou praised. "The Humagears still need some sort of singularity event for them to gain sentience, while the Roidmudes can do so by simply copying a person."
"Indeed they are." Belt-san agreed.
"Bannou might've been shitty but you can't deny his brains." Gou added bitterly.
"It was truly a shame, he ended that way." Belt-san gave out a sigh.
