Many thanks to those who read and reviewed this fic. I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here the current story arc picks up where the last chapter left, in which the black Ex-Aid is going to take the spotlight as one of the mysterious characters going in to action, which will no doubt put him into conflict with Nanami and the rest of the casts, so read on and well, enjoy!
As Akamatsu is walking back to the scene, she took out her cellphone and called Saihara, and asks him how are things there, in which he told her of the current situation, which made her surprised that the black Ex-aid has resurfaced again, and she asks him if he is hiding, which he said that he is, stating that he would be in trouble if the black-Ex-Aid were to see him.
Akamatsu then tells Saihara to keep on observing as she is on her way there, and he said that he will record the battle and advises her not to show up or else she might get targeted, saying that the battle between Brave, Snipe and the intruder is about to commence, and if she were to show up she too might get targeted.
"I'll stay hidden...but you better not show up."
"Why...?"
"The black Ex-Aid...he's too strong for you to handle."
"Seriously...?"
"Yes. Am watching the battle in secret."
"Okay. Can you at least record the battle?"
"I'm on it."
"..."
Akamatsu then turns off the connection as she hurried back to the scene, as she is worried that Saihara would be in trouble if the black Ex-aid were to see him, there watching. This is somewhat of a bad timing, as she is racing against time in saving Chabashira, and if the black Ex-Aid were to interfere, things would get more difficult, and she is forced to recall the death of her friend Ibuki Mioda, and she does not want Chabashira to end up like Ibuki, which made her determined to do what she can to save her.
"Hang in there, Tenko-chan...I'll definitely save you..."

Ch. 26: Shin'nyū-sha no kanshō
The scene shifts at the office of Izuru Kamukura inside Hope's Peak University Hospital, and the director of Hope's Peak banged his fist on the table as he is displeased and alarmed at what he saw, where it shows that things are getting more and more complicated at a number of unexpected situations popping out of nowhere, and this made him feel that Hope's Peak Univeristy Hospital's reputation is at stake possibly getting tarnished.
Kamukura is displeased at the turn of events that occurred, which are:
- Chikai Nanami being able to transform into Ex-Aid
- Nagisa Shingetsu resurfaces and is now meddling in Hajime Hinata's affairs and the operations that only LEGAL doctors can do
- A female outsider getting hold of the Game Driver and Gashat and being able to transform
- Another intruder showing up and is also wielding the Game Driver and Gashat
Chikai getting involved in assigned operations which Hinata is supposed to perform is one thing, but Nagisa butting in and meddling in the affairs of Hope's Peak University is another, then Akamatsu not only being able to transform, she has assumed a Level 2 form and began running around rampantly, and now another gatecrasher shows up.
Kamukura is visibly distressed that with another OUTSIDER is meddling in Hinata's affairs, with four INTERLOPERS popping out one after another, and this made him feared that his distant grandson is having too many COMPETITORS crashing in. he did not like this at all.
Moreover, he is not pleased that his distant grandson is focusing too much on Snipe, and with the black Ex-aid now there, Kamukura wished that he would do something to put both Chiaki and Nagisa out of the equation, along with Akamatsu and the latest intruder..
Jin Kirigiri tries to calm Izuru down but the director is not pleased with this and plans to use any means to have Chiaki expelled from Hope's Peak University Hospital, as well as to order Hinata to take out Nagisa and Akamatsu in the process, but Jin argued and said that Hinata will decide on what to do next, which Izuru is not well-taken on and insists that Hinata must be the victor for he is his designated heir and will not let a disgraced doctor, a female OUTSIDER, a rookie intern and another GATECRASHER upstage Hinata.
"Director Kamukura...please calm down..."
"How can I calm down? My distant grandson is acting too lax in his duties! That Nanami is one thing, then that farce Shingetsu is gatecrashing on our hospital's affairs…then all of a sudden that outsider of a girl is complicating matters! Moreover, another fool in an armor shows up and is interfering in my grandson's affairI will not stand for this!"
"Sir...I am sure that Hinata will take down the Monokuma this time..."
"Bah! Those three brats, Nanami, Shingetsu and that other girl…they would only get in the way! And now another fool, this time imitating that Ex-Aid…and is getting in the way…Hajime must defeat the Monokuma this time! Not the disgraced brat…not the rookie…and definitely not that other girl who just show up and strut around! And he better beat that new intruder! I will not let anyone else interfere in my grandson's mission to regain the glory of Hope's Peak University Hospital's glory and reputation!"
"Director Kamukura...!"
"Hajime better do a good job...but if he fails again...when he gets back...I will lecture him real good!"
"Sir...there is no need to..."
"It is needed! The future of this university hospital lies on whether Hajime can succeed or not!"
However, their argument stopped upon seeing the scene shifts at the laptop monitor where it shows that Brave and Snipe are still fighting, and it shows that neither Brave or Snipe are getting the upper hand, and the scene shifts at the battlefield where Brave calling Snipe BORING, and that he is an UNLICENSED doctor who has no right interfering in a LEGITIMATE doctor's OPERATION, and Brave tells Snipe to surrender the Game Driver and Gashat while he has the chance.
Of course, Snipe has no intention of giving them up...not without a fight.
"Give up the devices, you illegal doctor."
"In your face!"
"You really are BORING."
"Got a problem with that?"
"You do not deserve those devices!"
"Shove those words on your asshole!"
"I'll beat you up, then."
"Bring it on!"
The scene then shows the intruder stood in front of Snipe and Brave, and both noticed that the intruder is also wearing the same Game Driver and a black-colored Gashat, and both the armored doctors are baffled at who the intruder is and how he got hold of the two devices.
"Huh?"
"Another Rider in Level 1?"
"Blast…what's he doing here…?"
"Hey, you…do you know that Rider? Why does he resemble Ex-Aid?"
"No. And no idea."
"Are you sure? You're the GENIUS surgeon…surely you must be aware about that guy…"
"No."
"I see…this could be interesting…"
Due to his previous encounter with the intruder, Brave braces himself as the intruder went after him, engaging in a fight which Brave defends himself while attempting a counterattack, yet the intruder surprisingly blocked the attacks and did a straight punch which sends Brave careening back, and Snipe aims the Gashacon Magnum and attempts to shoot the intruder, but the intruder effortlessly dodges the attacks and did several palm strikes before executing a straight punch and the impact sends him straight into Brave and the two armored doctors were knocked down.
Snipe was rattled due to the impact and slowly gets up, and watched the scene in amazement as he never thought that there is another Kamen Rider who seemed to be attacking someone who is not a Monokuma. Snipe puts up a brave face and told the intruder not to get cocky.
Yet the intruder remained mum as he just stare at Snipe.
"Not bad…but you better not get ahead of yourself. Don't think you're good…we're at our current levels and I can match up with you."
"…"
"What?"
"…"
"You're not saying anything?"
"…"
"Fine, have it your way! I'll beat you and take your Gashat!"
"…"
As Brave scrambled to stand up, he felt irritated that the black Ex-Aid is meddling in his affairs again and is getting ready to face the intruder, but the intruder took out another Gashat, which the two armored doctors stare in surprise, as the Gashat that the intrude is holding appeared to be a newly-developed game, and the label is visible, which is revealed to be the Shakariki Sports, and the intruder inserted the Gashat onto the vacant slot of the Game Driver next to the slot where the Gashat of the intruder's form is stationed, and this caused the intruder to initiate his transformation, in which Snipe and Brave were surprised to see it.
Cartridge: "LEVEL UP! SHAKARIKI, SHAKARIKI…BAD! BAD! SHAKATTO…RIKITTO! SHAKARIKI SPORTS!"
-TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE-
The scene shows that the armored intruder just stood there as a projection lights up and a BMX bike, with a combination of colors pink and neon green, appeared and circles around a few times before it began to merge within the intruder's armor. This resulted in the intruder's helmet having a slight cosmetic change, where the top of the intruder's head, the SPIKY HAIR, is replaced with a pink bicycle helmet; his chest armor resembling a metallic pink vest; and the two bicycle wheels now resembled shoulder pads, which appeared to act as weapons.
This appeared to be the intruder's upgraded form, and yet he appeared to be the same as nothing else is shown to change other than the added armored appearance of the intruder..
-END TRANSFORMATION SEQUENCE-
Brave stared wide-eyed in surprise as he did not expect something like this to happen, yet Snipe seemingly kept his cool and is not intimidated by the intruder's new form, and even welcomed the challenge as he braces himself for the next round, and expected that things would be CHALLENGING from this point on.
In a surprising twist of events, Brave and Snipe decided to join forces, though unwillingly, as they charged at their opponent, and engaged in a physical combat, trading punches and kicks, while Brave uses the Gashacon Sword to try getting a few hits in hopes of weakening the intruder and make him pay for interfering in his recent operation attempts in the past.
However, with the black Ex-Aid's level-up form, he appeared to be impervious to his opponents' attacks, and punched and kicked them back, sending Snipe and Brave reeling back, and Snipe took out his Gashacon magnum and fired away, but the intruder's upgraded form was unscathed and went forward and delivered a barrage of punches and kicks before throwing him at Brave, and the two teens were knocked to the ground.
Brave is getting irritated as he wondered how an intruder was able to power up so easily, which Snipe smugly stated that the intruder has gotten hold of another Gashat and the Gashat has certain qualities that can upgrade a compatible user to a higher level, which Brave finds it absurd.
"Are you serious...?"
"I am."
"How absurd...how boring..."
"Tough luck for you."
"I'll beat that fool for trying to interfere for the second time."
"Hmph. So you met him already. Intetesting."
"Shut up, you boring, unlicensed fool."
"In your face, spoiled brat."
-x-
The scene shifts back at the office of Izuru Kamukura inside Hope's Peak University Hospital, and the director of Hope's Peak banged his fist on the table as he is displeased and alarmed at what he saw, where it shows that the armored intruder is getting the upper hand, and not only being able to transform, the intruder has shown to assumed an upgraded form, sending Hinata reeling and making him look helpless, and he is visibly distressed that another OUTSIDER is meddling in Hinata's affairs and feared that his distant grandson is having way too many COMPETITORS crashing in.
This is too much for Kamukura to handle, and is starting to get a bit paranoid, which Jin managed to calm him down a bit, yet Kamukura is still worried at the turn of events which he finds it unacceptable, due to several people showing up and, in Kamukura's mind, attempting to upstage Hinata.
First was Chiaki, then Nagisa, followed by Akamatsu and now the intruder.
Moreover, he is not pleased that his distant grandson is starting to LOSE HIS TOUCH due to him focusing too much on Snipe, and wished that he would do something to put both Chiaki and Nagisa out of the equation, along with Akamatsu and the intruder.
Jin Kirigiri saw this as well and he is also alarmed as to how the intruder got hold of the Shakariki Sports Gashat, and why would the intruder chose to attack Brave and Snipe, and he is starting to get worried about the chain of events that is happening right now, but Izuru appeared to be more concerned about Hinata starting to get upsized by many rivals and screamed at the laptop monitor, urging his distant grandson to do something and not let anyone get in his way, which Jin attempted to pacify the hospital director.
"Hajime! What are you doing?!"
"Director Kamukura…calm down…"
"Damn it, Hajime…you're getting too soft!"
"Calm down, sir…"
"How can I calm down? Look at the scene! An intern…that disgraced radiologist…a female outsider…and now a black version of Ex-Aid!"
"Let's wait and see where this would lead to…"
"Damn it! I do not like where this is heading to"
"Please, sir! Calm yourself! This is not the end of…"
Jin tries to calm Izuru down because of his unnecessary outburst, but the director is not pleased with this and plans to use any means to have Chiaki removed, as well as planning to order Hinata to take out Nagisa and Akamatsu, along with the unidentified intruder, in the process, but Jin urged Izuru to calm down and let Hinata deal with the situation personally.
Izuru, however, would not relent, stating that the future of this hospital, as well as its reputation, is on the line, and if his distant grandson fails, then Hope's Peak University Hospital would be finished.
"Director Kamukura...please calm down..."
"How can I calm down? My distant grandson is acting too lax in his duties! That Nanami is one thing, then that farce Shingetsu is gatecrashing on our hospital's affairs…then a lady outsider is complicating matters! And just now another armored intruder barges in and is obstructing my grandson's duties! I will not stand for this!"
"Sir...I am sure that Hinata will take down the Monokuma this time…along with that intruder…"
"Bah! Those three brats, Nanami, Shingetsu and that other girl…they would only get in the way! And now a fifth entrant showed up! Hajime must defeat the Monokuma this time! Not the disgraced brat…not the rookie…and definitely not that other girl who just show up and strut around! And he better defeat that intruder who stole a Gashat! Hajime must win!"
"Director Kamukura.."
"Hajime better do a good job...but if he fails again...when he gets back...I will lecture him real good!"
"Sir...there is no need to..."
"It is needed! The future of this university hospital lies on whether Hajime can succeed or not!"
-x-
Meanwhile, Akamatsu came back to the scene and she hid behind a corner of a nearby establishment where she can see Saihara sneaking away and joins her in hiding from the scene, and the two teens began talking, where Saihara asks how are things in her end, which she said that she could not stop the Monokuma, at least not by herself, and she would require Chiaki's help, and Saihara adjusted his cap seeing that Akamatsu has a point.
Akamatsu then saw the black Ex-Aid beating Brave and Snipe which made the two armored doctors look silly, but is surprised to see him in his upgraded form, and asks Saihara what just happened, and there he told her that the intruder has gotten hold of another Gashat and is able to use it to assume a higher form, which he deduces that the intruder has assumed a Level 3 form.
"What? A Level 3 form you say?"
"Based on what I observed..."
"How is that possible...?"
"I'm guessing that the black-armored intruder must have stolen a Gashat at Genmu Corporation...and he is using it..."
"But...how is it possible that the burglar is able to use it?"
"Now that you mentioned it, Akamatsu...perhaps he has someone backing him up. The thief may have undergone the same process that the three doctors underwent."
"If so, Saihara-kun...then that means...huh?"
"What..."
Their musing is interrupted as the black Ex-Aid throttles Brave and SAnipe around and threw them back, where he took the Shakariki Sports Gashat out from the holster and inserted it on another slot, and presses the holster's button to execute a command, and both Saihara and Akamatsu stared in surprise as the next scene would decide the outcome of the fight.
Gashat: "SHAKARIKI CRITICAL STRIKE!"
The bicycle wheels on the intruder's shoulders began to lit up and spin, and he grabbed the two energized wheels and threw them at his targets, and despite them blocking it, the attack was so strong that the impact caused an explosion, and both Brave and Snipe were thrown back quite afar, knocking them down and the intruder simply walked away.
Saihara and Akamatsu stared in surprise at seeing what just happened, and both realized that the intruder is not someone to mess with, and they are now sure that he is definitely an enemy, which she wondered why would the intruder fight a pair of doctors, which Saihara deduced that someone is definitely behind this and believes that the intruder may be allied with the ones who are unleashing the Monokuma.
"That's..."
"My instincts tell me that the intruder got someone backing him."
"How, Saihara-kun?"
"The intruder stole those devices, and he managed to use them."
"So?"
"It means that someone gave him a process in order to use them, just like Hinata and Shingetsu...along with Nanami..."
"Are you...?"
"Yes, Akamatsu."
To Be Continued...
Hope you liked this chapter, as the black Ex-Aid is showing that he/she is a force to be reckon with, having easily dispatched Hinata and Nagisa with rather relative ease.
And though Hinata and Nagisa were able to put aside their differences and take down the intruder, they somewhat failed, due to the intruder's level up form.
Having witnessing the events, what is Saihara up to now, given that he deduces that the intruder is being aided by someone from Genmu Corporation. Akamatsu would no doubt have her hands full given that saving Chabashira is her main priority.
What would Hope's Peak University Hospital's director would say once he sees Hinata again after the teen doctor's failure to stop the intruder…?

The next chapter concludes the Lazer arc but may cause more problems arise as the mysterious entrant shows up again…and may cause problems form our heroes…
