As I will be absent and unable to update from the 3rd to the 14th of February 2018, to make up for it here is what will be happening soon.

Preview to the finale of "Zangetsu-hen: Bloody Brothers"

The kingdom had turned into a war zone. Enemy forces were in the city and both Mars and Kamuro were in the thick of battle. There was fire everywhere, with buildings reduced to rubble by the explosions.

"Please, I'm rich! I have money! I'll pay you anything if you get me out of this madness!"

"Sir, please, calm down! We'll get you to safety as soon as possible!"

"Where's my son!? Where is he!?"

"Mama!? Papa!? Where are you!?"

The Moon Brigade battled the Zakurokage Legion while also leading people away to safety. There were exit gates built into the walls and they were now open to let people out. Their only chance of escape was to get to the docks where junks were waiting to take them away to safety.

"Hold them off! Clear a path for the people to escape!" one Moon Brigade soldier shouted to his fellow men. If they could not save the kingdom, then they could at least save the civilians. Driven by panic, they ran around like chickens with their heads cut off, so they needed to be led in the right direction, lest they run into the enemy who would kill them without hesitation.

Mars and Kamuro were in the thick of it, clad in armor, and brandishing their weapons. They fought with all their might, holding off the enemy so that the others could get to safety. Already the result of their skirmish could be seen sprawled all around them. There were red clad Zakurokage Troopers lying all over the ground, beaten by the twins. Yet, there were more of them and there seemed to be no end to them.

This was not supposed to happen! It was the last day of the Tiger Festival, a time to celebrate, with cries of joy and excitement. Instead, the only cries available were of fear, terror and pain as people tried to get away from the danger, running for their lives.

"At least this night can't get any worse," Mars remarked carelessly.

The universe heard, and invoked Murphy's Law. It was just tempted to prove the Ultimate Steel wrong that, yes, it could always get worse.

All of a sudden, the twins heard a loud roar that caused the air to tremble and their hearts to pound rapidly. There was no way that could be a normal animal, but Kamuro noticed something about that roar. It was full of fury and anguish. It was like the roar of a wounded animal.

And then they saw it, a monstrous creature with bestial features. It did not appear friendly, and the flames raging behind it just made it appear all the more menacing.

Its eyes locked on to the twins and it let out a roar as it lunged at them.

"GODDAMMIT!"

"WATCH WHAT YOU SAY NEXT TIME, NII-SAN!"

[LOCK ON! SOVEREIGN! BAIHU ARMS! BYAKKO NO KIBA, TENSHIN!]

Amazingly, the Baihu Lockseed could be activated with the GenesisDriver, functioning without any issue. A similar thing happened when Sasuke had used his Fiend Lockseed with his own GenesisDriver. When the Baihu Lockseed opened, the portal opened and the White Tiger Spirit emerged as hundreds of motes of light converged on Masataka, forming his Genetic Ride Wear suit. The White Tiger Aura Beat merged with him, forming his armor. Finally, his helmet materialized over his head and the visor flashed to signal the complete transformation.

"The White Tiger of Divine Providence Descends! Armored War God Zangetsu...Shin!" Zangetsu-Shin announced.

Masataka had successfully and without a doubt transformed into Zangetsu-Shin, clad in the Baihu Arms Celestial Armor. Instead of the Baihu Claws, he had a new weapon that was mounted on his left forearm. It had a turntable base with three hexagonal pieces connected on top. Attached to each hexagonal piece was a different weapon attachment: a drill, a chainsaw and a minigun. All three attachments were pointed forward, with the drill taking the main center spot while the minigun occupied the drill's left and the chainsaw attachment set on the drill's right. Finally, attached to the device's rear was a Drive Bay slot for Lockseeds to initiate Charge attacks with a handle which could be tugged to switch each of the weapon attachments.

This was Zangetsu-Shin's new personal Swiss army knife weapon, the Byakko Tri-ClawZ.

A dark portal appeared above Saver-V, hanging over his head.

"LEVEL UP!"

He hit the Cutting Blade, exposing the Fiend Lockseed's crimson core which matched the Vampire Melon Energy Lockseed's core.

[HA! HUNDUN-VAMPIRE ENERGY ARMS!]

The dark portal showered Saver-V with a blast of dark energy which violently tore off the tiles of the roof. Zangetsu-Shin was taken aback by this as the dark chaotic energy grew stronger, saturating the air around them.

Once the energy blast subsided, a dark figure stood before him, filling him with dread.

It was Saver-V, but he was utterly changed. The red-and-black color scheme remained consistent from his original form, but that was the only thing to stay unchanged.

Starting from the top, his helmet had gained some new accessories. Silver accent framed his helmet with a crest of six horns fanned out on his brow like the emblem of Kamen Rider Agito. He also gained a thick mane of grey hair that was spiked in all directions.

Moving down, the rest of his armor had received a drastic makeover. Mounted on hischestplate was a raptor's head with a beak full of sharp teeth, huge bat-like ears and a face that was frozen in a snarl. He had pauldrons with spikes on them that were concealed by layers of winged shoulder guards. Mounted on his back was a pair of medium-sized bird-like wings which seemed decorative, but could actually be functional. Around his wrists were furry cuffs and his fingers resembled wickedly sharp claws. Flaps of armor hung from his belt like a skirt, covering his thighs and crotch area. Finally, his visor flashed and filled in with a dark green color, signaling that the change was complete.

[HA! HUNDUM SPARKING! VAMPIRE ENERGY SPARKING!]

[BAIHU SPARKING!]

Zangetsu-Shin's body glowed and he concentrated energy into his Byakko Tri-ClawZ. He stared down Saver-V who was ready to execute what seemed to be his finishing attack. Zangetsu-Shin growled like a beast as his visor flashed and a huge image of a tiger made of his own white-hot aura emerged from him, ready to pounce.

With a yell, Saver-V threw his Fists of Salvation forward, firing his attack like one of Ryu's Hadokens which burst forth as a massive and devastating beam of pure destructive energy similar to Son Goku's Kamehameha. Tiles were ripped off the roof by the shockwave it produced as it shot toward Zangetsu-Shin.

At the same time, Zangetsu-Shin threw his left arm forward and sent the Aura Tiger to pounce at Saver-V. The tiger rushed headlong into the destructive beam attack and collided with it. Instead of causing an explosion upon impact, both attacks pushed against each other furiously.

Saver-V and Zangetsu-Shin pushed more power into their attacks before finally unleashing everything they had left, causing their attacks to explode and send out a shockwave blast that shook the air and blasted off the remaining roof tiles.

"Masataka-kun, what's wrong? What happened?" Sonken asked in confusion as he cried into her shoulder.

"My God...What...what have I done...?" Masataka cried in a fit of despair. He had killed his own brother. "What have I done!?"
