I do not own any characters from the Justice League Unlimited series or from Kamen Rider OOO. They belong to their creators. I will only claim ownership of any original characters, monsters, Core Medals, Combos and Greeed that appear in this story. This story is set as a cross-section between the JLU and KR OOO. For the moment, this is a one season story but it may develop into a full series if interest in this idea grows and if the reviews are plenty for it.

Justice League: OOO Unlimited
So far on Justice League: OOO Unlimited…
After meeting the Kent's and getting to spend a bit time with Kara, Eiji and Kara find themselves going face to face against both Uva and his three Yummies as they attack Metropolis while the League is unable to offer any help. Eiji takes up the mantel of Kamen Rider OOO once more as he battles Uva using his PuToTyra combo but as things start to slowly turn to Uva's favor, Gotou shows up and transforms into Kamen Rider Birth. OOO and Birth then make short work of the remaining Yummies but Birth is given a not so warm reception by the League at first. But they soon form a bond and that is when Gotou reveals something to Eiji that might be of help in restoring Ankh to normal.

Floating around alone within a vast dark void was Eiji Hino. As he floated there he was constantly looking around, trying to find his way back home but, try as he might, he couldn't find the correct path. "Hino-kun…Hino-kun…Hino-kun…" a strange and eerie sounding voice called out to him. It was a voice that he recognized but he just couldn't quite place it. As he continued to float there he began to wonder just how he had gotten there in the first place. "Hino-kun…Hino-kun…Hino-kun…" the voice called out again. Now Eiji was starting to get a bit scared as he had no idea who the voice belonged to.
"H-hello…who's there?" Eiji asked and as he turned around he heard the voice once more.
"Hino-kun…" Eiji turned around once more to immediately come face to face with…Doctor Maki. "Konbanwa, Hino-kun. It has been sometime since we last met." Eiji floated back with a terrified look on his face as Maki's form shifted to that which was his Greeed form. He then reached out and grabbed Eiji by his shoulder while he raised his other hand up a bit. "Do not think ill of me Hino-kun, but I shall now be taking those purple medals that are inside of you." And with that he rammed his arm into Eiji's gut as he started to rip out his seven purple Core Medals.
"I…I…!"
Eiji instantly sat right up in the bed he was sleeping in, sweet covering his entire body while the curtain on the window in the room he was using allowed only a sliver of the country moon light to enter his room. Eiji had a terrified look in his eyes as he began to pat his chest and stomach, making sure that there were no injuries present and then he looked around and noticed that he was still in Clark's old room at his parents' house. He had gone to bed early as he was still exhausted from the battle with Uva and that was around eight o'clock. Looking down at the clock on the night stand next to the bed, he noticed that it was only three in the morning.
Taking a deep breathe, he shuddered at the memory of the dream. It was still very vivid in his mind and he could remember every detail as clear as day. As he started to lay back down he suddenly heard a knock at the door, the sudden sound causing him to jump a bit at being slightly startled. "W-who is it?" he called out weakly.
"Eiji, it's me, Kara. I could hear you moaning in agony and then I heard you scream. Is everything alright? Can I come in?" Kara asked as she had been worried about Eiji ever since they had gotten back.
"H-hai, come in." Eiji replied and Kara did so as she opened the door and walked in. When she closed the door she looked him over and suddenly blushed a bit as he sat there in the bed with only a pair of bed pants on and nothing else. He was without a shirt and the past year fighting as OOO had toned up his body quite a bit. Kara fought back the blush but Eiji had seen it and then looked himself over and suddenly developed a sheepish look on his face. "G-gomen…I should probably put on a shirt."
He reached over into his duffle bag that was set next to the bed and pulled out a white muscle shirt and slipped it on as Kara strolled over and sat next to him. Placing a hand on his forehead she checked for a fever but felt nothing wrong with him. Breathing a small sigh of relief she locked her eyes with his and noticed the frightened look in his soft chocolate brown eyes.
"Eiji, what's wrong? You look like you saw a ghost or something."
"I-it's nothing really. It was just a really bad nightmare, that's all." Eiji didn't' really want to talk about it but he had come to realize in just the short amount of time he had spent with Kara that she could get anyone to spill to her about what was bothering them without even trying.
"Come on Eiji, I'm your friend. I can't help you if you don't trust me." she said with pleading eyes. He looked her in the eyes and then he regretted ever doing that as her crystal blue orbs starred into his, as if she was starring into his soul.
"Kara-chan…I…"
"Eiji…please?" she begged a bit, the touch of concern in her voice ever so apparent and he just couldn't fight it. With a look of defeat on his face he leaned back and rested his body on the headboard while placing a hand on his face, his eyes glowing a light violet color for just a brief second.
"I had a nightmare about Doctor Maki coming back and taking all of my medals…of him killing me."
"Maki, he's that other Greeed that also shared those Purple Core Medals with you, right?" she asked which he nodded to confirm her question correct. "Oh Eiji," she said in a calming tone as she pulled him into a soft hug, the gentle embrace calming him down for some strange reason. "It's okay, it was just a dream. There's no way Maki can hurt you now. You and Gotou both said that he has been destroyed and you even said that you can't sense the presence of the tenth medal anymore." Eiji nodded his head in her arms as she pulled him closer, one of her arms wrapped around the base of his shoulders while another held his head close to hers, her hand rubbing the back of his head ever so gently so as to calm him down. "Well then, there's nothing to be afraid of. You took care of that jerk and now you're here with us. Besides, if he somehow did find a way to survive, he'd have to deal with all of us just to get to you and you know damn well that Clark and I are no pushovers."
Eiji just smiled as he listened to her and he knew that she was right. He then inhaled her scent a bit and he could smell the lingering scent of her shampoo and now he really started to wonder what was going on with his six senses. He really needed to get a physical done soon so he made a mental note to get one once he got back to the tower. Kara continued to hold her new friend close to her as she soothed him back to sleep, the young Rider falling asleep right in her arms. After taking a moment to look him over she laid him back down in his bed and covered him up. With a small smile on her face she brushed a few strands of hair out of his face as she got up off the bed. 'Sweat dreams Eiji. I hope that your next dream is much better than the nightmare you just had.' With that Kara walked out of the room and closed the door quietly before heading back to her own room. With any luck she would still be able to get a bit more sleep before Pa Kent decided to wake up and start his early morning chores.

Chapter 6:
The Dark City, the Gauntlet and the Silver Combo
Author: Toku Warrior
—
The weekend had come and gone and now Eiji was once again standing in Clark's apartment while they waited for J'onn to beam them up. While he had his duffle bag slung over one shoulder he had a handful of shopping bags in his other hand. Kara had come back to Metropolis with them on Monday and, after getting the grand tour of the city by Clark, Eiji was dragged all over town by Kara as she took him shopping, helping to improve upon his wardrobe. He now had a variety of pants and baggy shorts and a few cargo pants as well. He also had a whole assortment of shirts that were both baggy and snug and he even got a couple of bandanas. The one thing he made sure to get was a completely new set of underwear. Returning to one of his older habits, he now kept an extra clean pair of underwear in his pants pocket just in case he ever got the urge to once again go on an adventure.
"You all set Eiji?" Clark asked as he stood there in his Superman suit.
"Hai." he replied but then remembered something. "Oh Clark,"
"Yes?"
"Are Gotou and Ankh both back at the tower?"
"Of course they are. Gotou's been there with Batman going over the Birth Driver with him for the past couple of days and Ankh just returned earlier this morning with Dr. Fate."
"That's good, I need to get the other half of his Core Medal to him soon so that Fate can start coming up with any ideas that he could use to revive Ankh."
"That is the whole idea." Superman replied as they were soon teleported from his apartment and back onto the Watchtower. Once they arrived they both noticed Green Lantern and the Flash standing there with Gotou suited up as Kamen Rider Birth. "Is there a problem guys? Did Uva strike again?"
"Nah, it's all cool Big Blue." Flash said as he waved off the tense atmosphere. "GL and I are just going planet side to throw out the final invites to some of the last few heroes that we could locate. That and GL is still trying to find that Green Arrow guy."
"And Gotou?" Superman asked as he and Eiji got off of the platform to allow the three of them to get on.
"Oh, I'm going with them so that I can learn as much as I can about this Earth. I figured that if we're going to be staying in this reality then we might as well as learn the lay of the land."
"That's a good idea, Gotou-san. I'll come join you sometime later today if I'm not too busy." Eiji said which Gotou replied to with a nod before they were teleported out. Eiji then readjusted his bags and the turned to look back at Superman. "Hey, I'm going to go see Batman and Dr. Fate once I get my stuff back in my quarters. There's something I need them to check on."
"What's wrong?" Superman asked as he and Eiji both headed for the door.
"Nothing really. I've just been noticing that my senses are strangely different than they used to be. You see, a Greeed's senses, compared to a human, are dulled as they are pure living desire. But my senses are not only fine; they're actually slowly becoming enhanced. I've slowly been able to hear conversations that are a good distance away and that's with people whispering and my eye sight is stronger than it's ever been. I swear I can read a billboard perfectly from just a quarter mile away."
Superman thought about this and, from what both Eiji and Ankh had told him about Greeed physiology, he knew that something like this was definitely out of the ordinary. He remembered what J'onn had told them about Eiji having an untapped power building up within him and that it drove J'onn out of him when he had gone berserk. Something about black and gold colored lights that called him their 'host'. Whatever it was, it seemed that it was slowly changing Eiji's body even more than his Core Medals were doing.
"Yeah, maybe you should go get a check up." Superman said as they made it to Eiji's quarters. "Look, I need to go and see if there are any missions or any last minute invitations to hand out so I'll come check up on you later."
"Arigato." Eiji said as Superman went back to the teleporter bay to see J'onn.
Entering his quarters Eiji set his bags down and looked out of his window to see the view of the Earth just floating there. It was a sight that always calmed him down and he would never tire of it. He made a personal promise to himself that, once Uva had been dealt with, he would go on a small journey to travel across some of the planet. He wanted to see just how different this Earth was from his own. Sure, many places, countries and landmarks were the same but there were also cities and a sliver of other countries as well that did not exist in his world. Though, then again, Greeed and Kamen Riders and functioning time travel machines did not exist in this reality either.
Picking up his bags he took them over to his bed and set them down before emptying them of their contents. After going through an assortment of garments he found something that matched perfectly and then went to find the League showers. After taking thirty minutes to wash up he dried off and changed clothes. Exiting the showers he was now dressed in a pair of tan baggy cargo pants and a short sleeved black shirt. Over that shirt he wore a shawl-like shirt that had a small tie-die pattern to it with colors of red, blue, silver, yellow, green and orange. He then fastened a purple bandana loosely around his neck, the majority of it hanging over the left side of his chest. While he liked other colors more, he felt a strong connection with the color purple and figured it was because of the purple medals. He still wore his black boots for now but he made a mental note to find a job down on the Earth some day and buy a couple new pairs of shoes.
On his way back to his quarters he ran into Wonder Woman who seemed to look a bit worried about something as she was pacing back and forth in the hallway. He could also hear her muttering something about a visit and family but it was so mumbled together that his enhanced hearing couldn't even pick it all up.
"Ano…hime-sama, is everything okay?" Eiji asked as he stopped in front of the door to his quarters. Wonder Woman jumped a bit at being startled but figured that she probably looked a bit silly pacing around while talking to herself.
"Eiji, I didn't hear you walk by. Sorry about that."
"Iie, it's okay. I was just placing my dirty clothes back in my quarters." Diana looked him over and noticed that he was wearing new clothing and had to admit that, for someone as strange as he was, the look suited him.
"Nice look. Going somewhere important?" she asked.
"No, these are just some of the cloths that Kara-chan helped me pick out which Clark then bought. He wanted me to have some clothes that suited my tastes and that were not just hand outs. I think that, if I can find a job someday, I'll have to get some new shoes. Boots are nice but I prefer shoes." Diana nodded her head in agreement and then she looked out of the hallway windows to see the Earth floating in its spot in the vastness of space. "Hime-sama, is there something wrong?"
"No, not really," she said with a sigh. "It's just that I received a message from my mother earlier and they're sending a new Amazon representative here to be the new liaison between Themyscira and Man's World."
"Oh, I see. But aren't you their liaison?" Diana sighed at this as she remembered what had happened. She guessed that no one had told Eiji about it so she decided to tell him what happened.
"I was…at first. But I was exiled from the island after I let men set foot there. You see, we Amazons have a strict rule that no mortal man is to ever set foot on the island but my sisters were turned to stone by an enemy of ours one day. So I took the rest of the Justice League there and, after being forced to do some stupid errands, we defeated him. We were celebrated as heroes but then I was exiled because I had broken the cardinal rule of the island." A few tears escaped her eyes as she truly missed being able to go home and to see both her mother and younger sister. Eiji could only sympathize with her as he set his stuff next to his door and walked over to her, placing a hand on her shoulder.
"Gomen, hime-sama, I had no idea." Diana smiled at him as she wiped away the few tears from her eyes.
"It's okay Eiji; I think that, over time, I might be given a chance to redeem myself. After all, I was allowed to attend my little sisters' ceremony of adulthood and the rest of the League was given permission to attend as well since they did help in saving them that time."
"Well all I can say is that you should never give up hope. Just believe that you'll be accepted back into their fold one day and it will most assuredly happen." Diana smiled again and then gave him a hug before he went back to gather his things from the floor and opened his door.
"Thanks Eiji for…you know…letting me vent my frustrations."
"Anytime, though I thought that Batman would at least have offered to hear you out. I mean, you two are pretty close after all."
"W-we are not." Diana said with a small blush. Eiji caught the blush and smiled a bit.
"Really, but you two would make a cute couple." And with that he entered his room and put his clothes in a small hamper before exiting his room once more. "Well, whatever the reason might be for you two not trying a relationship out, I wish you the best at getting him to notice your feelings. Speaking of the Bat, I need to go see him anyways. I'll see you later hime-sama." With a wave Eiji walked down the hallway, leaving Diana there a bit stunned at his remark.
'What did he mean that Bruce and I would make a cute couple?'

— Watchtower Science Lab —
Sitting there in a chair facing a big monitor was none other than Batman. On the monitor were data images he had taken from the Birth-Driver and its weapon systems. Batman had been thinking of ways of trying to copy some of the ideas over to the weapons system of the tower and maybe on ways of enhancing his own suit and his gadgets at the same time. But he wasn't alone in the room though. Standing over next to the far wall was Dr. Fate who was talking with the ghostly Ankh about some more types of spells that he could try to use. He had tried practically every spell he knew and a few others that didn't really apply to the laws of magic within their reality. But nothing seemed to work. It seemed that, if they were going to be successful in reviving him, they would need the other half of his Core.
Ankh had heard that Gotou was also now in this new reality but by the time he found out he had heard that the human had gone out on a small mission with the Flash and Green Lantern. He needed to find out if someone had at least found the other half of his Core back in their old world. Now he would have to wait a bit longer until Gotou returned to find out. As his argument with Fate continued and as Batman typed away at the control panel, none of them heard Eiji walk into the room, a smile on his face as he noticed Ankh.
"Listen, there has got be a way to get the other half of my medal from my home dimension. It can't be that difficult." Ankh spat in a fit of rage.
"Ankh, please, I already know that we need that other half but I've already told you that I can't just try and transport something from another dimension without knowing where to look. I need to know who exactly has it and where it's being kept hidden. If I try to transport it without knowing the exact location then I could inexcusably transport a living creature here by mistake. Or worse, a being that is alive within the void that would not hesitate to use the mana stream to gain access to our universe."
Ankh tensed up in anger and then, after a moment, sighed in defeat. He wanted to be corporeal again so badly that he was ignoring every basic warning that Fate was telling him. As he floated there considering his options he was suddenly surprised to hear Eiji's voice speak out.
"Ano…Ankh, Fate-hakusei, I couldn't help but overhear that you would need the other half of Ankhs' Core medal to possibly revive him. Is this true?"
"Why else would they be arguing for hour's non-stop next to the wall while I'm trying to work?" Batman quipped in a slight sarcastic manner. It seemed that all their bickering was slowly starting to get on his last nerve. Batman was a patient person but even he had his limits sometimes. What Batman didn't know was what Gotou had given Eiji back at the Kent Farm. He had been out of the room for the moment.
"I see." Eiji then turned back to Ankh and Fate and smiled widely.
"Oi, what's there to smile about, baka?" Ankh shouted in anger. Fate also noticed the big smile on Eiji's face as he stuck his hand in his pocket and then pulled it back out, now clenched in a fist.
"Mr. Hino, is there something you wish to share with us?" Fate asked. Batman had stopped his work to see what was going on as Eiji lifted up his clench fist and held it before Ankh.
"There is. Ankh, I received this from Gotou-san earlier this weekend while I was on the Earth. Hina-chan found it and told him to use it in hopes of possibly finding us." And with that he opened his hand and nearly gave Ankh a heart attack. Resting there in his open palm was the other half of Ankh's shattered Core. Fate's eyes went wide as he took it from Eiji's hand and even Batman walked over to examine it.
"That's…that's my Core!" Ankh shouted excitedly as Fate summoned forth the other half and held the two halves together, forming a whole medal for a mere moment. "Eiji, do you know what this means?"
"Hai, it means that you might just live again."
"Mr. Hino…thank you very much for bringing this to us. And I'll need to personally thank your friend as well the next time I see him."
"Yatta! Oi, Fate, come on we need to get started!" Fate nodded and the two of them left the room via one of his teleportation spells.
After they left Eiji smiled proudly, knowing he may have given Ankh the one thing he needed to help him live again. He then turned as he felt Batman starring at him and looked him right in the eyes.
"That was a good thing you did for Ankh. I wouldn't have expected anything less from you." Batman said as he turned around and walked over back to his chair.
"Ano…Batman, I want to apologize for having attacked you back at the farm in my Greeed form the other day."
"Don't worry about it. You were just looking out for your friend. I would have done the same for someone that I consider a valuable ally."
"Like hime-sama?" Eiji questioned which got him a small glare.
"…yes." Batman replied quietly.
Eiji then remembered what he had been talking to Superman about and decided to get this subject out of the way. While the League knew that there was something in Eiji that was giving him new strength, they didn't know what it was. It was something that he and Ankh kept quiet about until they thought that they could trust them with that information. Batman had scanned his body once before after his first training session and the only Core Medals he was unable to detect were Eiji's purple medals. But there was something else that didn't show up on the scanners as well. Walking over to Batman before he could sit down, he looked at the Dark Knight sternly.
"Batman-san, there's something I need to talk to you about." Batman turned and noticed the serious look in Eiji's eyes. Usually if it was something serious he would have gone to J'onn but this was a small twist and having come to him instead meant that he trusted him enough to ask for help.
"What's wrong?"
"It's my body. As I've told you once before, the five senses of a Greeed are dulled considerably when compared to those of a human. The one thing they have over a human is a sixth sense that is a type of perception which helps in locating another Greeed or a Yummy. It's a sense that only few humans actually have but it's common in all of the Greeed."
"Of course, you told me about this before during you medical examination during your first week here at the station."
"But that wasn't all of it. I'm becoming a Greeed. Or at least I thought I was."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Batman was now slowly getting curious.
"My senses aren't even dulled. In fact, they're getting stronger. I can see vast distances and hear things from far away. I can easily tell what kind of creature has walked by just by smelling the air, heck I could smell Kara-chan's shampoo while I was in the field and she was actually in the house helping out Mrs. Kent."
Batman brought his hand to his chin as he thought about this. This was something that needed to be looked into. If what Eiji was telling him was true then he was evolving into a new type of being that had the best of both worlds when it came to a Greeed and a human. He was possibly evolving into a type of hybrid. He would have to perform another physical to be sure though.
"Eiji, can you think of anything that might have brought on this sudden change? Maybe something to do with those gold and black colored lights of power that J'onn saw in your mind that one time." Eiji looked down at the ground for a second and Batman got his answer. Eiji had a very good idea what was causing the change to his body.
"Ankh and I didn't tell you guys the whole story about what happened to us in that void. You see, we were floating in that void and Uva was there as well. Those two lights scanned all of us and then formed into something. Then each light split in half and two halves went into me and the other two halves went into Uva. It's safe to say that Uva is also slowly experiencing what I am feeling as well."
"Did you see what they formed into?"
"Hai."
Eiji held out his hand and concentrated as he focused on the black and gold lights within his body. After a moment a small light formed in his palm and began to shine brightly in colors of black and gold. After a few seconds past the light faded away leaving two coins in his hand. Or to be more precise, two new Core Medals that Eiji had yet to use before. Batman took them from his hand and examined them carefully and then walked over to a small pedestal. Placing the two Core Medals on the pedestal he pushed a button, activating a scanning light which caused the medals to float into the air.
"Eiji, how come you didn't tell us about these medals sooner?"
"Like you, I wasn't sure if you or the others could be trusted. These new medals seemed to have chose me for some strange reason and I wasn't sure how they were going to affect my body. But once I started to notice the changes becoming greater I figured that you should now. I trust you enough now that, if anything were to happen to me, I would want you to take these medals and find a place to hide them. I don't think that they belong in the hands of just anyone."
"A good idea. From what the scanners are telling me, these medals are extremely powerful; so powerful in fact that I can't even get a clear enough reading." The medals proved this point as the energy from them caused the scanner to short circuit as they floated back over to Eiji and hovered in front of his body. Batman watched this and then looked Eiji in the eyes. "Do you have any more of these?"
"Yes, five of each color. But I don't seem to have a complete set to form a combo." With that Eiji summoned the other eight medals and, indeed, Batman saw five Gold Core Medals and five Black Core Medals floating around Eiji. He looked at the symbols on them again and noticed that the black ones resembled mostly dog-like creatures while the gold ones had symbols of godly birds. Godly…it gave Batman an idea.
"Eiji, for the time being, tell no one else about these medals." Batman said as the medals returned to their place within Eiji's body. "Who else does know about these medals anyway?"
"Besides me and you there's also Ankh, Uva and Gotou. I told him about them that night he stayed at the Kent farm. I don't know if Kara overheard us though so we'll have to be careful around her for the time being." Eiji thought about the medals and then about Ankh's desire to be a new type of Greeed and about the symbols on the Gold Medals. "Batman, I'm planned on giving Ankh the Gold set of medals once I got all ten."
"I see, his desire is to be truly alive and to become a new type of Greeed. The type that both you and Uva are slowly becoming."
"Yes, it was Ankh who gave me the OOO-Driver and the Core Medals. It was because of him I was able to gain power and fight to protect people. And he helped me defeat Maki. I at least owe him that much. He's my friend after all."
"I understand. But for the time being you should at least keep one of each type so you can use a combo if the need arises." Batman told him. He knew that pretty soon a small war was going to erupt between Eiji and Uva over these new medals and when that happened a lot of innocent people were going to get caught in the cross fire.
"I will, once Ankh revives I'll give him three of the five that I have. They should be able to act as replacements for his three lost medals and with them he could restore his body fully. I'm also going to give him all but three of the medals from both the blue and silver sets. This way I can still use SaGoZo and ShaUTa at a moments notice without having to rely on Ankh."
"I see; you don't want him to feel too underpowered?"
"Hai."
After a few more minutes of discussion Batman lead Eiji over to a small table and instructed him to lie down. The examination itself took about twenty minutes but Batman was able to get the information he needed. He then pulled up a secret file with information on OOO and the Core Medals and created two new sections and added the information he had so far on the new black and gold medals. Having Eiji summon the medals once more, he took image scans of them and added their images to the file.
He then looked them over for a few minutes and he started to get ideas of what these new medals represented. Looking over the two emblems that were on the gold medals he noticed that they resembled ancient Egyptian gods with a bird motif. He had no idea what each medal was yet and Eiji still needed a third one to form a combo so they only had two types for the time being. The same was noticed with the black medals accept they had images of dog-like creatures on them. After thinking about it for a second he decided that he would go over the information back at his cave when he had more time to study them. He wouldn't go into a full investigation of them at least until the new League was fully under way and when he could spare some time away from fighting evil. His mind made up, he began the shut down process of the computer after sending a copy of the new information back to his personal computer back at the Bat Cave. As he shut down the system the alarm in his belt went off which caused Eiji to look at him strangely a bit.
"What's with the beeping belt?"
"It's meant to alert me when one of the towers' advanced equipment starts to go out of control."
With that Batman left the lab and headed for the teleporter bay, Eiji following close behind, and noticed a few of the staff members standing around the control station for the teleporter pad. The staff looked to see Batman coming over to them and they all stiffened.
"Sorry sir, but it seems that the control station is malfunctioning a bit." the man in charge said as Batman walked over and began to look at it.
"Where are J'onn and Superman? Shouldn't they be here as well?" Eiji asked.
"Superman had to go back to Metropolis seeing as Parasite is on the loose again and J'onn went to back him up." The chief engineer replied honestly.
"Eiji, check the relay lenses while I go through the system settings. See if you can find a faulty lens or relay circuit." Batman ordered, Eiji nodding in reply.
As Batman looked it over Eiji headed for the pad and went to see if there was any damage on one of the teleportation relay lenses. One of the things he had been taught was how to help keep some of the systems maintained while he was living on the station and, since he had nothing better to do while passing the time when not training or going through therapy, he found the challenge quite enjoyable. As he checked the lenses Batman was able to see what was causing the trouble. Taking a moment to fix a faulty connection with a couple of wires he closed the panel back up and turned the power to the station pedestal back on.
This of course came with a small blunder because the moment the power to the relays kicked back on the teleporter pad reactivated. This was not really a good time for that to happen as Eiji was still standing on the pad checking the lenses. Noticing what was about to happen to Eiji, Batman shouted over to him.
"Eiji, get off the pad now! It's about to activate!"
Eiji jumped to his feet quickly at the command but he wasn't able to make it off the pad in time as he quickly found himself covered in the glowing light before he was instantly teleported off the station and to another destination.
"Oh dear lord, what just happened to him?" one of the female technicians asked Batman as he looked over the system.
"It seems that when the power was turned back on, a small power surge jolted through the connection relays. The surge jumpstarted the teleportation sequence and chose a random set of coordinates that we have stored in the Tower's library." Batman said as he looked at the coordinates and then realized where Eiji had just gotten teleported too.
"Where was he sent to sir?" the woman asked but Batman remained quiet as he left the control room and went back to the meeting room. He just hoped that he wasn't too late.

Floating in the middle of the room was Dr. Fate as he positioned his body in a meditative sitting style, his body floating over a strange set of rune symbols etched on the floor in a circle; the two shattered halves of Ankh's Core Medal set in the center. From the other side of the room Ankh floated in the air next to Fate's wife, Inza, as they watched him perform what they hoped would be the final spell that would re-forge Ankhs' medal into a whole one. Another pair of eyes also watched from the shadows as well but this person made sure to keep a safe distance away from them all.
As Fate continued chanting some type of mystical incantation the two halves began to glow as they floated up into the air before him. The two spare Core Medals that he had kept in the tower, the Kujaku and Condor Medals, also floated over to him and began to circle around the two halves. Ankh crossed his fingers and began to pray in hopes that this would succeed.
It was only by pure bad luck that he suddenly sensed danger coming from some far off place and, from what he could pick up, Eiji was in the middle of it. 'Che, bakayarou, he just can't keep himself out of trouble long enough without me around.' Ankh thought to himself. His thoughts were dispersed quickly though as his ghostly body began to glow. He looked back over at his Core Medals and noticed his shattered one started to become whole once more. "Yes, it's working! I can actually feel myself becoming solid again!" Inza looked at him and smiled softly. She had prayed that this would be a success for him. And it seemed that her prayers would finally be answered. That was when the Core Medal halves completely fused back together, the fusion causing a chain reaction as an explosion of red blinding energy was released from within the center, causing them all to shield their eyes.

— Keystone City —
"Well, that should be the last of the invites." Gotou said as he leaned back against a brick wall on top of an apartment complex where he was resting while looking at both the Flash and Green Lantern. "It's a shame that this 'Green Arrow' has yet to respond to your summons. You two aren't related in any way, are you Lantern-san?"
John and Flash just looked at Gotou and Flash started to laugh lightly as it had not been the first time that that joke had been brought up. John just sighed as he looked at Flash and shot him a glare, causing the red clad speedster to clam up. He then looked back at Gotou and sighed again.
"You know, that's not the first time I heard that joke kid. And stop it with that honorific stuff. Do you know how long it took me to get Eiji to stop?" John said in a slightly chastising voice. He didn't mind the culture but he thought of Eiji and Gotou as good friends and as possible League material so he didn't want them to use honorifics with him.
Flash didn't seem to care though seeing as both Eiji and Gotou just referred to his as either Flash or by his real name. Considering how close a friend Gotou was to Eiji, the rest of the League spent a couple of days getting to know Gotou before they told him their identities as well. Only Batman was left and he hadn't told either of them. As for J'onn, he preferred that they remembered their culture and that they never forgot where they came from. As such, he allowed the use of honorifics with his name but he also knew that as they grew closer to Eiji and Gotou as friends that they would someday drop the use of the honorifics all together.
Superman felt the same way about the honorifics as John did while Kara liked how Eiji would refer to her as Kara-chan. To her it made her feel much closer to him as a friend as she was the only one that Eiji referred to in such a way. As for Diana, she had quickly gotten used to being called hime-sama by Eiji while Gotou stuck to calling her just Diana-san. Ankh just referred to them by their superhero titles and that was it. He didn't bother with the honorifics as he wasn't really a member of the Japanese culture. He just mostly spoke the language as he was in Japan at the time when he was revived the first time.
"Okay, okay, I understand. But look at it from our cultural point of view, we're still getting used to having you guys in our lives so we like to be more formal until we are fully comfortable. So don't bite our heads off if we let an honorific slip now and then." Gotou said as he raised his hands in a defensive gesture. "And I wasn't making a joke about the Green Arrow subject. It's a legitimate question on my part. Remember, I'm still learning about this world and its heroes."
"Sorry, forgot about the parallel universe bit." John apologized as he looked at the list of names of heroes and heroines they were supposed to meet. "Well, we actually have four more people to go meet and then we're done."
"Really, who's left?" Flash asked in anticipation.
"It says here that we got the Brazilian heroin known as Fire and her friend Ice…I think she's Norwegian. Then we got another female hero known as Vixen to look up and then after that it's Doctor Ray Palmer in Boston. He's known to most of the hero community as The Atom." He looked over and noticed Gotou's head tilt a bit, as if he was giving him a questionable look. "Yeah, I know, strange name but don't we all have strange names as heroes?"
"Point." Flash said as Gotou just nodded in agreement. Gotou was still wondering how long it was going to take him to just get used to referring to Eiji and himself as just OOO and Birth while on the station. They couldn't trust just anyone with their names just yet as they didn't know who was fully trust worthy.
"Well okay then, let's get moving." John said as he took to the skies with Gotou following close behind him using the Cutter Wing while Flash ran along on the ground, the three of them off towards their next destination.

— Gotham City: Bat Cave —
Eiji looked around as he was now in an entirely new place that he had never seen before. It was so dark he could barely see his hand in front of his face. Looking around the only light he could see was what was coming from a dimly lit monitor of a very huge computer. His eyes slowly becoming accustomed to the dark setting of his new surroundings, he started to walk around and noticed that he was actually in a cave of some sorts. Looking over to his left he saw pedestals with glass cases over them which showcased displays of various objects ranging from small gun-like weapons, to masks and even a strangely gangster dressed puppet. As he walked forward he suddenly stopped in his tracks when he noticed a very huge Tyranno statue near the end and on the opposite side of it was a gigantic penny.
'O…kay, that's just plain weird.' Eiji thought as he walked around some more.
Little did he know that as he continued his little unguided tour of the strange cave, he was being watched from the shadows by three various sets of eyes. Slowly making their way from the shadows and into areas where they could get a better view of the 'intruder', the three sets of eyes ended up belonging to three different people.
The first person had a body built for agility and fighting as his frame slightly resembled that of Batman but his outfit was completely pitch black in color save for the single blue bird-like emblem that stretched out across his chest. His face had on a single domino mask and his long hair was slicked back, dangling down to his shoulder blades. The second person looked like a young boy who wore a red shirt with green short sleeves and long green leggings with black bottoms. He wore a pair of green gloves and boots and he also wore a gold utility belt around his waist. His red shirt had three gold buttons on the front and a black circle with an 'R' in the center of it on the left lapel of his chest. He also had a long black cape with a yellow inside hanging down from his shoulders. Just like the man next to him, he also wore a single domino mask that hid most of his identity and his hair was short and spiky.
Crouched next to him was a young woman with a very curvy and well toned figure. She wore a light grey suit while her boots, gloves and belt were a gold color. The symbol of the bat was plastered in the top center of her chest and was colored gold as well. She wore a small black cape in the same style of Batman's but hers only reached the middle of her back. She also wore a top-only mask that covered the top half of her face, allowing her log red hair to flow freely down her neck and shoulders, the cowl of the mask also possessing bat-like ears like Batman's cowl. Her teal blue eyes peered at the intruder from behind her mask as she and her two teammates watched the young man carefully.
"Who is he, I've never seen him before?" asked the kid to the other two in a silent whisper.
"I don't know but he's gonna regret ever breaking his way into here." said the older man as he glared at the back of the intruders head. "Okay, Tim, you go to the left and Barbra, you take the right."
"And I guess you'll be taking him head on while we prep the ambush?" the girl, Barbara, asked. The man nodded his head and then slowly moved out towards the intruder. 'Good luck, Dick.'
As Eiji continued to wander around the cave he suddenly saw something that made him do a double-take as he staggered backwards from shock. There, parked in front of him, was a long black car with a bat motif design to it. He starred in awe at the sleek design of the car as he moved towards it a bit more.
"Sugoi…it's the Batmobile. Batman showed me a picture of it once but to see it up close, and in person…it's definitely a thing of wonder. Man must have good resources to get something like thiaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!" Before Eiji could even finish his sentence he was grabbed from behind and thrown down to the ground, a powerful force keeping him pinned.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" his attacker demanded. He tried to look up but his attacker rammed his forearm into his face, keeping his head pinned down as well. "Nu-uh, no peeking. Now, I'll ask you one last time, who are you and what are you doing here?"
"I'd answer him if I were you pal." Eiji jerked his head free from the pressing forearm and noticed a young kid standing over him from his left. He then heard footsteps and looked to his right to see the form of a young woman who, apparently, dressed very similar to Batman.
'Well, that explains why these people are so untrustworthy towards me.' Eiji thought as he tried to think of a way out of this. "You know what, I can deal with Batman and his moody personality but I've really had enough weirdness for one day." Eiji said as he started to fight his way up off the ground, his strength slowly pushing his attacker off of him.
"What's that supposed to mean?" the girl asked him as her two companions moved to her side.
"It means this…" Eiji quipped as he quickly drew out the OOO-Driver and fastened it to his waist as his eyes began to glow their eerily violet color for a brief moment. He then summoned forth his purple medals at which they slid themselves into the Driver as Eiji took hold of the scanner and passed it over the medals as the Driver tilted diagonally. "Henshin!"
"PTERA – TRICERA – TYRANNO…...PUTOTYRANNOSAURUS!"
The three crime fighters starred on in shock as Eiji's body was covered in the familiar form of his silvery white body suit and purple armor, the ever familiar power of his PuToTyra combo once again flowing throughout his body. Barbara starred at him for a moment longer and then remembered a news report about a similar being that had fought against a group of monsters back in Metropolis earlier that week. She also heard from Kara about a new friend of hers that could summon a powerful suit of armor with some strange colored medals.
Realization dawned on her as she suddenly realized who it was they had attacked and who it was that was about to take out his frustrations on them for attacking him. Barbara slowly began to back up, her nervousness easily seen by her two friends. "Batgirl, what's wrong?" the kid asked her in concern.
"Robin, Nightwing, I think we might have jumped the gun on this one here." She replied as she got as far away from Eiji as possible.
As she got further away she suddenly felt a sharp cold pain coming from her legs and found that she could no longer move away. Looking down she saw that both her legs and the legs of Robin and Nightwing had all been encased in ice which was being emitted from Eiji's body as his transformation finished. He then threw his head back as he shouted out loudly while his fingers flexed like claws, the ice around their legs and on the ground shattering from the sheer force of his yell which sent the three of them flying backwards and down to the ground in a heap.
Eiji then moved forward and grabbed Nightwing by his hair and hefted him up before letting go and then, using the same arm, sent him sailing through the air with a powerful backhand right into a cave wall, causing the bats that hung from the ceiling to fly away from them and out of the cave. Nightwing slid down to the ground; the wind knocked out of him as he watched Eiji grab Robin by his cap and started swinging him around in the air as if he was a rag doll. Letting go in mid-swing, Robin was sent flying right out of the battle and into the back of the chair that was set in front of the Bat Cave computer. Robin hit the chair with a loud thud and fell to the ground hard, the young crime fighter holding his ribs in pain.
Looking down by his feet Eiji then noticed the form of Batgirl getting up slowly but was surprised that, instead of attacking him, she just stood there and looked him dead in the eyes. Approaching her cautiously, Eiji slowly moved forward until he was only a foot away from her, his armor almost close enough to touch her just from the short amount of distance.
"What, now you don't want to fight?" Eiji asked. Before Batgirl could answer him he was suddenly tackled away from her by the combined forces of Robin and Nightwing ramming themselves into his body.
"Don't you dare touch her!" Robin shouted
"Batgirl, hurry up and give us a hand here!" Nightwing shouted out. As they fought with Eiji, watching from the shadows with interest was Batman, his faithful butler Alfred Pennyworth right by his side.
"Sir, might I ask why it is that you do not go in there and break up this…misunderstanding?"
"It's simple Alfred. I've studied Eiji prowess in his training sessions and from the news clips of his fight against Uva in Metropolis. Enough that I know that he's pulling his punches. He won't hurt them…much."
"But Master Bruce, young Tim seems to have been injured in that last toss and Miss Gordon doesn't seem to want to fight this man." Alfred pointed out as they watched the fight continue on. "So I must ask, you would let a senseless battle carry on when the three of them combined are no match for him?"
"Call it a test for both sides." Batman as he continued watching the fight.
"Come on girl, we could really use !" Robin screamed as did Nightwing as Eiji rammed the bottom of his fists into their backs, his arms acting like clubs, as he sent them down to the ground.
"Urusai na!" Eiji shouted as he grabbed Robin by his cape and, using both hands, swung him around and threw him right into the side of the Batmobile, back first, his head bouncing off of the metal. Robin slowly tried to get up but, with one last look to the others, soon fell to the ground as he started to feel the grips of unconsciousness clinging to his mind.
"Robin!" Batgirl shouted out as she started to run towards him. But she soon found her path cut off as Nightwing was thrown to the ground right before her feet. "Nightwing!" She kneeled down and cradled him in her arms as he sprouted a busted lip and a small cut to his forehead.
As a team they were strong but it would seem that OOO was far stronger. She then turned her heads towards OOO as she heard a faint feral sauric roar, witnessing him drawing out the MedaGabRyu from within the Earth. Holding the powerful battleaxe before him, he stood poised, ready to attack if need be. She recognized that axe from both the news reports and from Kara's talks about that form of OOO. And it was because of this information that she also knew how powerful it was. Standing back up, she starred at him with a stern glare, her focus now unwavering from her goal.
"Look, I know who you are now." She told him in a calm voice. Eiji responded by slowly lowering the axe a bit but still high enough that he could bring it up to block an attack. "My name's Barbra Gordon, I'm a friend of Kara's. She told me about you over the phone the other night." Trying to prove her point, she removed her half-cowl from her head and held it in her hand by her side.
"Eh, you know Kara-chan?" Eiji asked, now a bit surprised.
"Yes, she and I are good friends. She told me about a young man around our age that could summon armor with different colored medals and how he and a friend of his had helped her in a fight back in Metropolis this past weekend."
Batman and Alfred had finally seen enough as they started to move from the shadows and walked towards the group of heroes before them. Turning around at the sound of more footsteps, Eiji was glad to see the sight of a familiar face walking up to him.
"Batman-san, finally, someone I know. Just where the heck did that teleporter send me?"
"You're in my base of operations; the Bat Cave." he told him simply. They then noticed as Alfred used some smelling salts to revive Robin as he helped him up to his feet, the young boy still favoring his ribs a bit. "Looks like you really held back there."
"Well what else should I have done? They're your friends and I just wanted them to stop attacking me. I mean, how much more weirdness must I go through before the day ends?"
"Sorry 'bout that." Nightwing said as he got up slowly, favoring his right arm. He knew he'd be out of action for the next few days. "We just don't take kindly to uninvited guests who suddenly appear out of thin air, especially when we don't know them. No hard feeling I hope."
"No, though I hope I didn't hurt you all too much. PuToTyra is a hard combo to control when it comes to throwing your punches." Eiji explained as he banished the MedaGabRyu back into the Earth from whence it came.
"Dude…whew, if that was you holding back on us when you're irritated…ow…then I don't ever want to fight you when you're pissed." Robin exclaimed as Alfred had started applying an ace wrap to his bruised rib cage.
Before any other words could be spoken the alarm at the computer started to go off which caused everyone to quickly head over to it. Sitting down in his chair, Batman pulled up the police scanner and listened in for the incoming report while the others stood behind him, Eiji dismissing his transformation and returning back to his human form.
"Calling all available units, we have a metahuman attack occurring in the downtown plaza of Gotham Square. I repeat, metahumans Bain and Killer Croc are currently attacking active units at Gotham City Square." the police scanner reported. Batman looked at the others and knew that both Dick and Tim would not be able to fight this night so he turned his gaze to both Barbara and Eiji.
"Tim, Dick, you two stay here and rest up for the remainder of the evening. Barbara, you go after Croc and Bain; and take Eiji with you. His transformations should be useful."
"Whoa, you're actually letting someone in on defending your turf? And what about you?" Barbara asked.
"The main teleporter still needs some slight repairs so I'm going back to finish them. Report back to me once you two take care of Bain and Croc." And with that Batman left through the main entrance, closely followed by Dick and Tim as they retreated to their rooms for the evening. Alfred went on to set all of the equipment back to their power-save settings before retiring himself for the evening, leaving Eiji and Barbara by themselves in the cave.
"Well, I guess it's just you and me rookie." She said as she headed over to her motorbike, grabbing her helmet. "Let's go."
"Oi, ch-chotto matte! How am I a rookie? I've been fighting monsters for just over a year now!" Eiji complained as he walked over to her.
"Easy, when it comes to Gotham, you're a rookie. Now hop on." she replied as she slipped on her helmet.
"Okay, fine. Just give me a second." Eiji told her as he ejected his purple medals from the OOO-Driver and summoned three different medals. Sliding them in, he passed the scanner over them as he transformed into Kamen Rider OOO once more. "Henshin!"
"TAKA – TORA – BATTA…TA-TO-BA – TATOBA – TA-TO-BA!"
Eiji quickly transformed into his default Rider form and then hopped onto the backseat of the bike, clutching his hands around Barbara's lithe waist. She smiled at the sensation as she could easily detect that he was really nervous about holding onto a girl in that way. Most likely it meant he didn't have much experience with women.
"You might want to hold on tighter than that. That is, unless you want to fall off and hit pavement on the way there." she chided playfully.
"H-hai…please, whatever you do…don't tell Kara-chan about this. If you do I might never hear the end of it." Eiji pleaded which got a loud laugh out of Barbara as she sped out of the cave and down the secret path that led right to the highway which would then take them to Gotham City.
—
— Gotham City Square —
The carnage was horrifying as a police car was sent sailing through the air as if it was nothing more than a toy, the vehicle coming down right on top of another cruiser that was being used as a shield by a few police officers as they fired their guns at the two monstrous beasts before them. Towering over the cars and cops was a reptilian-like humanoid that stood well above seven feet tall with a grayish opaque hide. His muscles bulged as veins popped up beneath his skin as he roared in rage at the humans who were trying to stop him. He had no hair and his moth looked almost crocodilian which was filled to the brim with razor sharp teeth. He had on only a single pair of torn blue jeans that looked faded due to years of wear and tear.
Standing next to him was another tall muscular man with bulging muscles and veins of his own, his body clad in a black muscle shirt and black pants and boots. Strapped to his back was a metallic tank that contained a strange liquid, the tank sporting tubes that connected to both the back of his head and his arms. The whole device seemingly controlled by a single control dial on his gloved hands. He also wore a black mask over his head which looked like something a masochist would wear. The mask had three holes which showed off his mouth and his eyes, the irises a blood chilling red color.
As one of the cops came closer with a stun gun the masked man grabbed a motor bike parked near by and tossed it at the man. "You know señor Croc; we seemed to have been interrupted by these…insolent little men. What say we hold off on who has the right to kill the Bat until these chico's have been dealt with?" the man asked the reptilian man as the officer from before barely dodged out of the way of the flying bike in time.
"Yeah, whatever. As long as I get to eat some of these little shits when we're done here. All of this fighting is making me hungry." Croc replied as he licked his chops, the saliva slowly dripping from each tooth as he rested his eyes on a female cop who was down on the ground, nursing an injured leg. "Here chicky, chicky, chicky." Croc said playfully but also menacingly as he slowly stalked over to the injured woman.
The woman watched in fear as her fellow officers were being kept at bay by Bain, the overpowered brute slowly enjoying the fun of crushing his weak opponents. Her eyes darted to Croc's mouth which held his dripping wet teeth, his appetite craving the tender flesh of her body. Finally towering over her, Croc lowered his hand down to grab her as she screamed out in terror.
"Ever play dinner toots?" Croc laughed until his arm was suddenly struck by a flying piece of metal, the sharp object sticking into his tough skin. "OW, damn it, who thre—" Croc began until he heard a beeping sound. Looking at the metal object he noticed it resembled a Batarang with a flashing red center. "Ah crud."
In a powerful explosion, the monster was thrown away from the female officer and right into a parked car on the side of the street. Bain stopped his battle with the other cops, his hopes that Batman would finally show up to face them starting to build up. Looking over at Croc he then looked over at the woman to notice that she was now gone.
"Strange, where did the señorita go off to?" Bain asked aloud which got him an answer from someone he really didn't want to see.
"She's safe though I can't say the same for you, Bain!" shouted the voice of Batgirl as she looked down on both of them from her place on top of a crumpled police car. Bain also noticed a strange person clad in a black body suit with multicolored armor holding the female officer bridal style while he carried her over to a medical unit.
"Are you injured miss?" OOO asked the woman as he placed her down on the stretcher.
"I think my leg is broken…but I'll be fine." She replied as she looked at the armored man. With Batgirl she wasn't surprised and she would have expected either her, Robin, Batman or even Nightwing to show up. Heck, she would have expected all four of them to appear to face those two. But this guy was someone she had never seen before, especially not in Gotham. "Who are you though?"
"OOO; Kamen Rider OOO." he said as he turned around and walked back over to Batgirls side while Croc got back up and staggered over towards Bain.
The two of them looked the newcomer over and they were not impressed to say the least. He looked more like someone who would have fit in either at Central City, Metropolis or New York. Heck, Croc was wondering if many of the newer heroes that seemed to have been popping up recently were losing their fashion sense. No one just stuck to basic color patterns anymore as they went with a more flashy style nowadays.
"Hey, who the hell are you pipsqueak? The circus lose their human cannon ball or somethin', heh heh heh!" Croc bellowed as he laughed. Bain just smiled but his smile soon disappeared as OOO summoned three medals from his body.
'A strange fellow indeed. Señor Batman must be making new friends in that Justice League of his.' Bain thought as OOO took the three medals from his belt out, the small coin-like objects going back inside his body.
As Eiji slowly inserted the new medals into his belt, Batgirl watched him slowly as did the police and the Gotham news crew from the sidelines. Seeing the medals now situated in his belt, Batgirl noticed that the medal color was all silver instead of red, yellow, green or purple.
"Hey, OOO, what are you doing?" Batgirl asked out of curiosity.
"Well, I remember Batman-san saying that he had some enemies that were immensely strong. And from how we saw these two easily lift cars and bikes like mere playthings, I figured I better go straight to a full combo instead of mix-n-match. Besides, I haven't used this one in a while." Eiji said as he took the O-Scanner and passed it over the medals. Well, it's time to go to work. Batgirl-chan, I'll take on Bain so do you think you can handle Croc on your own for the moment?"
"SAI – GORILLA – ZOU…SAGOZO…SAGOZO!" the scanner shouted as the silver emblems of the three heavy animals appeared before Eiji, combining into one symbol before slamming into his body, changing his form to that of his silver form, SaGoZo, the Gravity Combo.
"Raaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Eiji shouted as he ganged his arms against his chest plate, the Gori Bagoun causing a reverberation which sent many of the cars before him flying right at Bain and Croc. The two muscular villains were instantly buried underneath the mass of cars as OOO stopped banging the Bagoun's against his chest and looked at the pile as he prepared for battle. Batgirl looked at the small pile up and then at OOO in amazement and then thought that Kara had really held back on the information on him. Smiling, she looked back at the pile up as Croc and Bain dug their way out, their faces covered with expressions of rage and aggression.
"Consider it done. Now let's go!"

Chapter 7:
Onslaught, Invitation and the Fiery Finish.
—
Toku Warrior: Alright people, the stage has been set and now we bring in SaGoZo for the next battle. Sorry to leave it on a cliff hanger like this but expect a good fight to ensue in the next chapter and a question that the Justice League brings up to both Eiji, Gotou and Ankh. After the next chapter we finally get right into the JLU series part of the crossover as we start with the Initiation episode. For those wondering if I'm going to be bringing in Donna Troy into the fold of heroes then you'll just have to wait and see. Also, as asked by a reviewer, the reason Uva is more malicious in this series is due to the black and gold lights bringing out his true potential which is destruction, thus he's evolving into a Perfect Greeed. Hopefully this explains why I made him this way so far.
Well, stay tuned and I hope you enjoyed this one. As for those medals I mentioned earlier in this Chapter with the discussion between Eiji and Batman, let's just say that those medals will play a major role in this story but their combo forms won't be seen for a long time coming. For now, the story must develop first.
Again, I hope you all are enjoying this series so far and, please remember, R&R. Have a good one and I'll see ya'll around.
