Returning to the Void of the TVA after escaping from the Prismatic Fleet, the Wakandan royals and the alliance then got transported into the Sanctum Infinitum by the now-godly Zenkaizer, who united all versions of the TVA in an attempt to deal with the omniversal Kamen Rider Chronicle. But the normal Ride-Players got kidnapped and the Singularity arrived with the body of the fused Bayonetta with both Eyes of the World. The father and son were monitoring the Kamen Rider Chronicle, but the Starstorm wouldn't have it. Thus, they fought the Singularity and managed the warning to all Ride-Players out there through Speed Force, and ultimately, brought to the Alphaverse. The team managed to kill off Singularity Jr., and the crafted tyrant himself got punched out of the body. Of course, there's no way this is the end...
Location: the Alphaverse
"My beautiful vessel... my son has died because of those strangers! And you won't even bat an eye-" Singularity about to throw a temper tantrum.
"You turned us into humanoid weapon, and every single second of you was horrific! Cereza, Lukaon, Redgrave... (*36) These were our identities before you broke the Trinity of Realities!"
"Bayonetta! Arch-Eve Origin! You shouldn't have existed as you were to begin with! You're too rigged! And most importantly... your mind were weak!"
"Oh really?" Scarborough Fair, the set of handguns for Bayonetta the character. "You malfunctioned already. And you still bringing the fight out of spite? Remembering your-"
"Heh... heheh... hehehehehe..." Singularity chuckled. "Hehehehehe... we warned you."
Zein!
The now-familiar holy loop blared, and the driver caused a small shockwave that pushed the body back.
"Enough is enough." Singularity got back up. "Henshin."/"変身"
Zein Rise! Justice! Judgment! Jail! Zein! Salvation of humankind!
"I'm an Avenger. But not that Avenger. The literal one. Now." Singularity, as Zein. "And revenge... for justice. At least, justice is what this form promises."
"So you're the kind of being who would easily let Zein the corrupt benevolence slide no matter what." Onodera, still transformed. "That's not how us Kamen Riders work."
Singularity pulled out a Zein Dimension Card, with disdain hidden behind the helmet (Judge Head).
"You will not stop us."
Shikkou! (執行!) Justice Order!
Cue the Alphaverse getting sliced akin to paper shredding. But instead of the multi-color hues, the cuts are... just white of the fog of the Singularity. (*1)
"You...!" Bayonetta - in fused fae bossy with ears and white covers - noticed.
"Phenomenal Affirmation will not be stopped." Singularity floats. "Destroy all you want. Darkbolts wins."
"For real?" Gary is pissed. "Who let you say that?"
"Nijigon, let's!" Houtaro got an idea. "ULTIMA!" (*2)
Gotchanko! Gotcha & Go! Rainbow Gotchard! Gotchard! Ultima! Ultima!
His Gotchardriver is unleashed with a deeper color and armed with Nijigon's cards and the buckle, from Nijica who's actually Nijigon (who currently have the normal orange Gotchardriver Houtaro used to possess).
Rainbow Fever!
"Gotcha!" Houtaro and Nijica, cue the alchemy.
The fog suddenly got shredded away, leaving the usual shredder hue coming from shredding the Dimension card.
"No!" Singularity pulled out the Rainbow Gotchard card.
Bayonetta unloaded, knocking the card off and putting Singularity in real trouble. She, with a well-placed Witch Time, got him knocked away, clearing the way for the Starstorm to escape.
"Why are you so... offensive?" Singularity then fly away to a cut.
"Die!" Ms. Continuum threw a literal rift to the spectre.
The thrown exploded with all the intent to shred Singularity into oblivion. Unfortunately, Singularity caught it with his hand back.
"You're not worthy. Never. You killed my son!" Singularity faded out of this place. "Zyuki! Gaoza! GoGoi! Magini!"
What? Uatu spoke up from his form wore by Takeru. Who?
"What do you exactly mean?" Deadpool asked.
Singularity has teleported away. And the Alphaverse is falling apart anyways, because the Dimension card has taken effect.
"Can't transmute the end of dimensions, not really." Tsukasa warned the alchemy couple.
"This material really looks sharp. Why the blade exploding the entire realm into oblivion?" Nijica squinted.
"Its function is to reset an entire dimension." Kyon revealed. "Oh... You didn't know these things before?"
"Uh... no, I never heard of those specific cards until we got in TVA." Houtaro admitted.
"Oh, too bad. You missed out on the other Glare." Kyon shrugged. (*3)
"We have to get out." Jones turned around and propped a rift. "This reality is collapsing!"
A quake hit the platforms, as the entire Alphaverse is being consumed into the cuts of the reset.
Location: C Street, Convergence Station, Denver, Colorado, United States
Someone who just became a Ride-Player is sitting on a chair, reading newspaper about the Lostbelts (*4) being dragged into the Desire Royale. (*5) A stranger in pink with black metal-mesh mask came by.
"Oh hello, I didn't see you come in!" The Ride-Player greeted. "Have you come for perhaps a fortune? Aura re-alignment? Maybe a new horoscope? Or perhaps just to chat?"
"Syd the Psychic, welcome to Kamen Rider Chronicle, the game everyone must play and must love." The stranger declared. "The next generation of Squid Games."
"Oh, you must have heard of Syd the Psychic, you must know to ask around 'cause I never look the same."
"We know who you are. Now, shall we bring the matter to the outside?"
"Oh, who are you?"
"You're a Ride-Player. You are in no position to question or defy our goals. Plain and simple."
"Ride... Player?"
"Yes. In Kamen Rider Chronicle, you will slowly become stronger for every seconds, every moments, every time you survive. As Kamen Rider, and as a mob. It's the only game everyone will need, and the next generation of Squid Games."
The stranger pushed Syd the Psychic outside. "Survive long enough, and you'll become a god."
The C Street people are panicking. More of the stranger in pink has arrived with the exact same kind of fit with the exact palette, only differing in the white symbol grafted into the mask. These are the pink guards, who all wear the same base clothing in order to preserve anonymity. This is the pink hooded jumpsuit, black gloves and black boots, and a permeated mask to hide their identity. These masks have one of three symbols which indicates their ranking. They seemed to have been managing and keeping and upholding the annual Squid Games - something none of the Convergence Station residents even knew about before.
"On behalf of our frontmen, us from the Squid Games present to you: Kamen Rider Chronicle." A pink guard declared. "Nobody is allowed to stop playing. If you refuse to play, you will be eliminated on the spot."
"Who are you!?" The residents are pissed.
Cue a lightning striking an Eemian Ride-Player, instantly killing them.
"We are gods, and we have the rights to punish rebelling contestants." The pink guard continued. "You are in no position to question or defy the game. Doing so will eliminate you."
Everyone is silenced in front of the pink guards. And only one of the residents went against the shit...
Standing By! Complete!
A persistent red glow blared, and the result is an futuristic Kamen Rider with the Greek letter phi (Φ) as motif.
"Kamen Rider Faiz."/"仮面ライダーファイズ"/"가면라이더 파이즈" The pink guard noticed something wrong. "Contestants, we have a sidequest-"
"NO! We are not having it!" A Ride-Player objected.
That Ride-Player exploded in ludicrous gibs, which the pink guards expected would scare the Ride-Players so much that they would stop defying anything.
"Enough is enough." Pavel of Eemia refuted. "You guys have no place in our converged future and yet you dare invade our worlds?"
The Ride-Players quickly started calling the pink guard out, while Faiz left the scene.
"So you have decided to terminate your rights to existence. You want the games to stop." The pink guard pulled out a Zein Driver.
All the pink guards also have each one Zein Driver. "Have a load of this... judgement."
Zein!
"Run! Everyone, RUN!" Pavel screamed. "We will be outnumbered!"
All the residents started getting out, with some even urging the Eemia, Ossuary and Numina to also get out, as the Zein standby loop calms down the pink guards first.
"Convergenece Station, begin the purge." That one pink guard declared.
Zein Rise! Justice! Judgment! Jail! Zein! Salvation of humankind!
BGM: Rap God - Eminem
"Zein?" The Gyre took notice.
"Oh no..." Pavel noticed.
The pink guards as the Zein army pulled out each Zein Cards. One such card that's pulled off by a handful are the Rap God Zein Card, with the image of Marshall "Eminem" Mathers in its front side and the Eminem's reverse-E logo on the backside.
Shikkou! (執行!) at the right time, vocal on!
The nearby Ride-Players are horrified at the music of some's favorite rapper about to be weaponized against their very own lives, as the army shredded the cards. This prompted the Ride-Players to leave C Street and get out of Convergence Station as soon as possible.
Justice Order! A bunch of themed portable miniguns (*6) are summoned to those using the Rap God cards.
"Die, eliminated." The army pulled up. Third verse's second half, fire!
Everyone who didn't leave soon enough ended up being gatling'ed down by the Zein army with Rap God arsenal (*6), dying from rapid gunfire. And not all survivors came unscathed - some were slow enough to unwittingly let themselves gain injuries from the guns. And the gunshots are extremely loud, practically to the point of deafening ordinary people without plugged ears in one shot, let alone rapid-firing. The music and lyric didn't get drown out, but everything else nearby did.
Shikkou! (執行!) Justice Order! The Ice Spice Zein Card, peppering the Zein system and allowing the army to move faster without increasing their pace.
Outside the Convergence Station. The perfectly slanted phi (Φ) and the smartphone in the belt buckle, indicating it's Kamen Rider Next Faiz. They looked behind and saw the surviving Ride-Players rushing out of the exhibit/realm. Police as well, surrounding the entrance to Meow Wolf Denver, a.k.a. the Convergence itself.
"Everyone, TAVEEE!" in English.
A green senshi in golden armor flipped by. "I am Ninja of Ninja! The green light bullet, Sky Ninja Shurikenger, on stage!"/"I am Ninja of Ninja! 緑の光弾、天空忍者シュリケンジャー！参上!"
"Are you... the Green Samurai Ranger?" (*7) Faiz spoke, in a feminine voice.
As Shurikenger shrugged, the Zein army went out of Convergence Station entrace, meeting the police with using a Juice WRLD Zein Card.
Shikkou! (執行!) Justice Order! "I have these lucid dreams..."
"Are they disrespecting Juice WRLD?" She squinted.
The police forces helplessly floated up, while a Zein pulled out a Hyper Shinken Zein Card, which have image of Hyper Shinken Red wielding the sword Kyoryumaru at front, and the Shinkenger logo on the backside.
Shikkou! (執行!) Justice Order!
That one summoned Kyoryumaru and the blade then expanded and swiveled itself as it moved, piercing through each and every one of the nearby police, killing them in literally one hit. The Zein retracted the Kyoryumaru in one fell swoop afterwards, exloding all the police surrounding the entrance into ludicrous gibs to the Ride-Players' horror.
"Faiz, run, you'll get hurt." Shurikenger pushed Faiz back. "I will deal with these strangers!"
"Shurikenger and Faiz... good grief..." A Zein noticed. "Peddling against us is a death warrant for you."
Vision Driver. Shurikenger wore a futuristic belt with a technological bulk, all with sleek design.
"What?" The Zein army noticed.
"Please fight for the people of Convergence... I'll be leaving." Faiz then ran away.
"Faiz. We know. Now-" The Zein army figured it out.
"Not so fast! Behold! The turbocharged Ninpuu have arrived!" Shurikenger declared.
Shurikenger, log in. Cue a standby loop combining dubstep with ninja-themed melody, complete with both synth and shinobi sound together, straight from the driver itself.
Shurikenger then stylishly threw his golden chest armor, which is a weight-inhibitor. It flew towards the Zein army, and crashed into the ground so hard, it crated it. The Sky Ninja then whipped his green Providence Card up without rotating his helmet.
"Super Face Change!" Shurikenger quickly swiped the card.
Install. The green light bullet on fire. Shurikenger.
As the standby loop is finished in a fairly short but climatic-sounding medley with retained ninja melody, an emerald-green five-thick-rings-on-line-of-larger-thinner-ring halo flew down in the middle to Shurikenger, who thus transformed into a green Vision-Rider (Kamen Rider using Providence Card of sorts) with nigh-spherical looking combat drones circling as multitudes of pillars of light overlapped and covered the Sky Ninja, forming a futuristic yet recognizable super suit. Each drone looked like a futuristic version of his Spin Transform Shuriken Ball (回転変身シュリケンボール). The drones attached to the knees, the shoulders and the chest, adding the golden accent to the suit as well as briefly giving his black visor a flaming projection akin to his typical Fire Mode.
"Shurikenger Evol Mode!" Roll call and pose.
"Shurikenger, you have been eliminated by your own theatrics."/"슈리켄저, 당신은 스스로의 연극에 의해 탈락했습니다." A Zein at the front declared the end of Shurikenger.
The Zein guards in front pulled out each a Shurikenger Zein Card.
"Never will we." She tapped on "Axel" application. "Goodbye."
Complete! Faiz's chest rotated, more tron-lines and the visor went blood red. Start up!
Shikkou! (執行!) "You're not getting away with it." Justice Order!
A bat sheath containing a blade, summoned in each, and accompanied by a hoard of baseballs.
"You're copying my powers?" Shurikenger squinted. "You're neither Gokaigers nor Zenkaigers! What's wrong with you?!"
"You're a mere contestant who defied the games completely. You're eliminated, and will be subject to immediate clean-up." A Zein dismissed. "Super Ninja Art: Secret Hitting Thousand Knock!"/"超忍法・秘打千本ノック!"
Justice Punishment! With the Shuriken Ball, the Zein Army spins around like a tornado with the their bats to hit many baseballs rapidly towards the Rider-morphed ninja.
In a ninja-acrobatic fashion, Shurikenger flipped out and dodged all the balls, moving back without being hit. Landing the streets, Shurikenger then dashed away, then hiding himself away from the Multi Compoud Eye visor's direct sight. Shurikenger were going to use some smoke bombs, but he felt that Zein can sense what's within the explosion radius. So he threw the smoke bombs to the army as an distraction.
"Super Ninja Art: Plasma Sword Burst!"/"超忍法・プラズマ剣バースト!"
Cue the attack drones briefly detached and flying, each firing a green laser at the army before returning to the suit, so overwhelming the army for a brief moment. At the same time.
"Huh?" A Zein noticed a very large red demon mask falling.
It's the Puppeteer, falling down to a few Zein. This caught attention of the army themselves.
"Wait... you can transmute lore itself?!" Ms. Continuum is surprised. "You turned her to future, she's not with that one anymore!"
Houtaro (Ultima Rainbow) is shocked, but Nijica (Miracle Gotchard) is excited. The now-restored Night Rose just sighed in response.
"Oh no..." A Zein noticed.
It was the Starstorm team, using the gliders made of extreme alchemy from Houtaro and Nijica themselves. Pechy was the one suggesting that, having known what Rainbow Gotchard and beyond can do.
"Oh no, they're noticing us!" Hope looked down. "Everyone, throw the gliders down!"
The Puppeteer disappeared, as not only being thrown away, but Night Rose is already free from the Puppeteer. The Night Rose now wears golden and inner red.
The army of Zein gathered to target the mid-air, but while aiming and accessing powers, the now-discarded gliders fell down, bombarding the army with deadly rainbows made of extreme alchemy itself. More than half but less than three-quarters were killed, and all of the army forcibly de-morphed back into the pink guards, clearly wounded.
The full team dropped down to the ground, completely safe. Mike immediately outed this place with recognition, and began questioning about the Convergence resident. Meanwhile, Next Faiz is hiding in the streets, away from both the scene and Shurikenger.
"Y... You..." A pink worker looked up.
"Why waste time on Squid Games right now?" Deadpool then headshot that one down.
"Oh. FINALLY!" Shurikenger peeked. "Miss, look!"
The two saw Starstorm gathered in front of the injured pink guards. Next Faiz saw a face and quickly recognized her as someone familiar...
"Couldn't this be...!"
Meanwhile, up there...
"Zyurai, look!" The Godhunter noticed. "They're going to...!"
"Hmph. It's time we push the Weapon Z program." A man in red smirked. "With the power of Bugsters, we can rebuild..."
"Zyurai, quick while our Prismatic Fleet cleanse this state!" The Godhunter then went back to their Sparrow. "See ya!"
It's day 8 now. Next Faiz decided that she must recharge her SB-555P20 Faiz Phone 20 Plus - which is now around 15 percent left.
Location: The White House is the official residence and workplace of the president of the United States. Located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C., it has served as the residence of every U.S. president since John Adams in 1800 when the national capital was moved from Philadelphia.
"The office is empty. And... uh... which reality is it?" Pechy, now sitting in the Presidential chair. "And..."
A bunch of scattered of CXA files are in place of signable executive orders, and both the Dreamcatcher princess and the Continuum herself picked up some. The files regarding the Zerobreaker war and the Puyo incident (*8) caught the latter's eyes.
"You actually reading... Star Reverie (*9) of all cases?" Ron noticed. "And what's this? Star...fleet?" (*10)
"Wait... what's this?" Pechy spotted a note from...
NI. ESTAS. NEEVITEBLA.
Ĉiu vojo kondukas al Chronicle! Ĉi tiu ĉiopova ludo estas nia preĝejo.
Kiam ni ordonas vian kapitulacon, ni parolas per senfinaj voĉoj...
Kiam ni faras pugnon por disbati vian reziston. Ĝi estas kun senfinaj manoj!
Kiam ni rigardas en viajn okulojn kaj frakasas viajn sonĝojn. Kaj rompu vian koron. Ĝi estas kun ĉio-vidantaj okuloj!
Nenio kiel Darkbolts iam venis inter vi: NENIO DENOVE.
Ni kondukos vin al infero sen eliro aŭ fino.
Kaj tie ni murdos viajn animojn!
Kaj igas vin rampi kaj petegi!
Kaj mortu!
MORTU! MORTU POR DARKBOLTS! It's written in Esperanto.
Which means...
WE. ARE. INEVITABLE.
All road leads to Chronicle! This almighty game is our church.
When we command your surrender, we speak with infinite voices...
When we make a fist to crush your resistance. It is with infinite hands!
When we stare into your eyes and shatter your dreams. And break your heart. It is with all-seeing eyes!
Nothing like Darkbolts has ever come among you: NOTHING WILL AGAIN.
We will take you to a hell without exit or end.
And there we will murder your souls!
And make you crawl and beg!
And die!
DIE! DIE FOR DARKBOLTS!
Next Faiz out of transformation, revealing herself as a black woman with afro, holding a literal mineral on a necklace...
"Chya! They used the Anti-Imagine Equation to patch Kamen Rider Chronicle!" Mike figured it out.
Outside, Renee caught a Supply Drop with the help of Doctor Doom. The supply is glowing out in a warm light.
Where did this come from? She wondered.
We're tracking you with the power of the Dreamcatchers. 2044!Pechy called. Without it, we would have no way to redirect this gift into your side. Open-
"Geez, future witchcraft!" Renee chuckled.
2044!Pechy rolled her eyes, while Renee opened the Supply Drop. It's a trident with rotary fork to converting until a rifle, and a literal keyhole nearby.
"Gokai Spear, by an amazing silver-colored man?" Renee vaguely...
Everyone, ambush once I command. Gaoza called the brainwashed Pretty Cures.
A dog-girl (*11) growls, armed with talon claws and fangs. "Suuure..."
Doctor Doom is well-versed at both technology and magic, so he inspected and tuned the Spear. This caused it to behave erratically, electrocuting Doom all over and briefly glitching the surroundings.
"Chya. The Forgotten Four. You know how to control Last Stop." Gary noticed. "Use it to shield this place."
Arcane tech set got absorbed by the black box behind the hole, stunning Doom and briefly rendering him powerless. The Spear shone, and floated in front of Renee.
The fork now has orange blades instead of blue, and the keyhole glows with the same warm light as before.
"If that ain't Odin-Force and power cosmic combined..." Doom got up.
A barrage of Pretty Cures intercepted the White House. This includes the dog-girl, Komugi Inukai (犬飼こむぎ), Shocker Cure Wonderful.
"DIE!" The international Shocker Cures charged ahead.
Renee spins the Gokai Spear like mastery, much to her surprise. The formerly bully felt like she can use with ease, and...
"Pretty Assault!" Shocker Cures tried to sucker punch the outside.
One such Shocker Cure got fatally mangled by Renee. The formerly bully proceeded to destroy some of the Shocker Cures in style, herself. Even thrusting three at once while Doom only merely watches the combat.
"Doom! DOOM!" One Shocker Cure charged towards Doom.
"Doom!" Renee shouted. "Crouched!"
So Doom did, laying down against the maniac. Said maniac got headshot upon a quick and immediate switch to the rifle-like Gun Mode, straight from the Spear Mode. And instead of just a clean hole into the brain and destroying all thought works, but... *BLAM* on hit, the Great completely exploded, and the transformation instantly reverted, leaving only a civilian corpse without a head.
"What?" Daigo stepped down.
Some of the Shocker Cures immediately headed to the office.
"Dreamcatcher Slash!"
One swipe to end each and all those Shocker Cures heading.
"Pechy! Look!" Daigo noticed. "How did you-"
"I'd like to thank your brother for teaching me swordfighting." Pechy stepped down, wielding the Lucky Seven. (*12) "Dreamcatcher Warrior Smashing Light!"
Cue a bright blinding flash from Pechy, briefly blinding all the Shocker Cures. Few more is skewed through creative slashes.
"Who sent these brainwashed girls here?" Storious noticed.
"Renee! You have Mr. Ikari's Spear?" Pechy noticed. "It looks different to our memories."
"How dare you steal our winnings!" A Shocker Cure screamed.
"Thanks the Dreamcatcher!" Renee swiftly finished said Cure. "And Doom held it with technology to tune, and... it resonate the hell outta."
The fork in Spear Mode seems concentrated with power cosmic, and immediately it strangled another Shocker Cure. This is where Shocker Wonderful comes in.
Pechy blocked Komugi's pounce with the blade.
"Grrr... You...!" Komugi's savage.
"Ms. Wonderful... How?" Pechy is shocked.
Komugi just laughed like a bitch and psycho. "Who survives my hounding des-"
"SHUT UP, MS. WONDERFUL!" Pechy clashed against Komugi. "Snap out of it!"
Komugi clawed Pechy's sleeves, and thus accidentally spotted some mutations on her arms. Specifically, it's calcified and spliced away, just like the Final Shape.
"I'm sorry, bitch." Cue Pechy headbutting Komugi, with the profanity showing how off the rail Pechy's existence has become due to Darkbolts' terror.
Komugi is stunned, and the entire Oninoshima gang restrained her.
Girls? Girls? Girls! Gaoza didn't previously hear a response after the ambush. Are you ok? Are you fine? Where are you?
Chya, the convergenced lady, takes the stage! She walks and noticed, she go to pick up a walkie-talkie. That walkie with a knob like a Squid Game talkie, currently set to "1".
"You terrorizes my people." Chya spited Gaoza even though she doesn't know who he is yet.
You are... Next Faiz? Gaoza noticed. Chya-chuwan, you survived yesterday's bullshit. Who woulda known that? I am Gaoza, the Hundred-Beast God-General.
"Gao...za? Hundred... Beast?" Pechy noticed. "Sounds like Gaoranger to me." (*13) "Wait... AREN'T YOU?!"
We will not let you slide, extreme resistance! Gaoza is pissed. Of course we have some hostage, but well... I'm going to tell you this: playing Kamen Rider Chronicle is the only way to survive. Attempting to end it will eliminate all of you... to OBLIVION!
"It's really stuck, even with all the loosen." Nijica couldn't get the Gashat out.
In Anti-Imagine Equation, corruption becomes you.
"ARGH!" Nijica is electrocuted by the Gashat.
The Buggle Driver II falls down to the ground, and displayed projections of... Anti-Imagine.
Death to all traitors. Including traitors to the game - the ones who refuses to play.
"They're evoking the Order of the Pariah!" Ms. Continuum recognized the behavior. (*8) "That Gashat is corrupted! Kamen Rider Chronicle is rigged! IT'S FUCKING RIGGED!"
Good luck, Ride-Players!
The walkie-talkie went static.
"Everyone gather up. We bring all our delegates and reserves here. Now." Ms. Continuum turned...
Location: Future World
"Uh... yeah..." Lucifer stepped down. "Crystal, we gotta gather up."
"Lucifer... Are you sure the outside is safe?" Queen Crystal hesitated.
"But Ms. Continuum needs us." Lucifer stepped out. "Let's go, Crystal."
"We could be blocked by-" Queen Crystal is interrupted.
QUA-GOD!
"Who's this?" Lucifer noticed.
TONE BOY!
COME AND KICK IT!
"Where did these sound come from!?" Lucifer turned around.
"Oh~ Ohger~ Royal Raiment~!" POP IT ON!
HATCH IT!
"Who are you!?" Queen Crystal noticed.
GUYS GO! (解放!)
"This is... over 20 years old?" Lucifer vaguely recognized this. (*14)
"Royal Raiment"/"王鎧武装"
You are the a King, You are the- YOU ARE THE KING!
Six monstrous bug-themed monarchs approached the two with modded swords, and individually are red stag beetle, blue dragonfly, yellow praying mantis, purple butterfly, black hornet and white tarantula.
"You gotta be kidding me." Queen Crystal stepped down.
Queen Crystal! Mr. Void! Do you hear us? Ivy Jolicoeur called.
"Why there are giant humanoid stag beetle, dragonfly, mantis, butterfly, bee and spider, with distorted crowns, blocking us?!" Lucifer reported.
You mean... King-Ohger?! (*14) Mike recognized the theme. You're telling us... dear Ohsama became evil!?
"No, and we haven't seen the King-Ohger on the run for 20 years... Just crossovers... maybe?" Queen Crystal admitting she hasn't seen the Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger in years. (*14) "Tell us- wah!"
"You're finished!" The red stag aggressively assaulted.
"Oh yeah! It's time to roll!" The purple butterfly danced around with his own sword.
"Help us! We don't know what these monsters are!" Lucifer panicked, having never seen those monstrosities before. "And who sent us these!?"
Kamen Rider Chronicle most likely brought the King-Ohgers... uh... wait... you're telling us you're up against monsters? Deadpool called
"YES!" Lucifer confirmed.
The yellow mantis have a noblewoman's laugh, before doing flashy strikes to keep the two.
Monsters based on King-Ohgers... Deadpool wondered the case. Could these be...
QUA-GOD!
"That sound again!" Queen Crystal noticed.
"Huh?" The red stag is interrupted by the sound.
"Now fear me and heed my words! I will show no shred of mercy nor restraint, and spare no effort nor intent! The name of your demise... is Gira Husty of Shugodom! The man who'll become the King of Evil! And I as the monarch... shall rule over this entire world!"
TONE BOY!
"Hyme-chan, roll on and check these knock-offs." A guy with a jacket and a headphone, wielding the exact same sword as not only the red stag and blue dragonfly, but also that "King of Evil". "As for you... our guests, I don't flatter or suck up to anybody. No matter who I'm dealing with, my guts and brains will be enough to break through. That's how the president of Nkosopa, Yanma Gast rolls."
COME AND KICK IT!
-*noblewoman's laugh that deflates in a charming way* "Ishabana! I am the queen: Hymeno Ran. I will do as I wish, and stride down my own path. Now you shall witness the pride of the flower that will never wither!"
"No! That line is MIIINEEEEE!" The yellow mantis is pissed.
POP IT ON!
"Why so serious?" Then the purple butterfly suddenly had a realization. "Wait... who are you? How do you look like me but less bubbly and fun!"
"The law is a spear that slays kings, and a shield that protects the people. That is why Gokkan stands resolute! The earth may shatter, and the heavens may fall... but I, Rita Kaniska, shall not waver!"
"Damn... who cares?" The hornet shrugged but in a kabuki way. "Now, let's strike these-"
HATCH IT!
"But-but-but-" The blue dragonfly is dumbfounded-
"For the sake of my people, for the sake of Tofu, I will cover myself in mud and dirty my hands. That is who I am: the lordly king, Kaguragi Dybowski!"
"Why are you so... derivative? We are not you." The white tarantula dismissed the five. "Let us eliminate you so you won't be bugging us on our way."
Much to the tarantula monster's disappointment, GUYS GO! (解放!)
"I am Jeramie Brasieri, ruling over man, Bugnaraku, and everything else. The fate of the world is my story to dictate." A half-human bi-shonen with a spider dagger unblocking by a literal key. "The king of the in-between, and what he is here to do... all shall speak of it forevermore!"
"You dare defy us, the supreme monarchs?" The red stag is pissed.
"Royal Raiment!"/"王鎧武装!" The six is a go.
You are the a King, You are the- YOU ARE THE KING!
SPIDER KUMONOS!
Cue the amber encasing the six then ambushed by respective bugs, crashing the amber and forming the senshi suits and armors - exactly just like one watching Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger expects.
"Oh-! Oh... you're done with your old career, as an idol-" The purple butterfly picked up-
Kuwagata Ohger!: "The king of evil! Gira!"
Tombo Ohger!: "The wise king! Yanma Gast!"
Kamakiri Ohger!: "The brilliant queen! Hymeno Ran!"
Papillon Ohger!: "The immovable sovereign! Rita Kaniska!"
Hachi Ohger!: "The lordly king of bounty! Kaguragi Dybowski!"
Spider Kumonos!: "The king of the in-between! Jeramie Brasieri!"
"We are the warriors clad in crowns!" Gira declared, as Kuwagata Ohger.
"The Ohsama Sentai: King-Ohger!"/"王様戦隊キングオージャー!" Roll call.
"King-Ohger... year 2023..." (*15) "And the... kings and a queen..." Queen Crystal is endeared by the existence of the King-Ohgers. "Hey, Hymenopus Ranhara~!" (*16)
"Ah? Really?" Hymeno blushes.
Awww... Queen Crystal... Pechy shrugged.
Yay! More! 2023!Pechy is delighted, as King-Ohger in her time is still incumbent and ongoing.
"Insolent! You're under the wrath of the King of Evil! MEEE!" The red stag had enough.
King of Evil... Evil King... Deadpool heard it. Does that sound familiar to you, Mr. Husty?
"I am the Galactinsect King Gira."/"吾は宇蟲王ギラ" The red stag revealed. "We hear you smuggling around our domains, trying to subvert my supreme reign in the heat of death."
"Galactinsect King... Gira?" Lucifer got it.
"What business do you have with all this waste, these trash and those outdated reality?" Uchu!Gira dismissed. "We'll clean it up... In a public execution."
"You again... Evil King..." Gira realized. (*17) "No... I am a tyrant who devour tyrants. Not an extreme tyrant like you."
"Begin disinfection!" Hymeno showed off her flashy style, just in time the combat continues.
"Being in this monster form is better and feel better than eating the flowers I was selling." Sell!Hymeno is disgusted. "Why would you not do either?"
"Why would you abandon freedom for that mental job?" Idol!Rita couldn't believe it.
"Freedom doesn't mean one get away with everything." Rita shook their head, dissing at their counterpart. "Also, you're not the real me. You co-existing nets you a death penalty, for you're effectively impersonating sovereignty and fraudulent to all, and with killing intents."
"I only get dirty to help my people and my allies. You did it for yourself and yourself only with no regard of others!" Kaguragi disses Rikishi!Kaguragi. "That's why you lost your lands! I remember you through me, when the past had to be fixed!" (*17)
"So... so... you're killing us? No-no-no..." 2-bit!Yanma couldn't believe it.
"No choice, sucker me." Yanma scoffed. "You've become king? Prove yourself or die."
Cue the monarchs vs. monarchs. Interestingly, all respective one have the exact same fighting style as their respective counterparts: Gira with his aggressive style, Yanma with his pragmatism, Hymeno's flashy moves, the unwavering "cool" style of combat supplemented with the idol moves to further counter Idol!Rita, both Dybowski's kabuki style turning their clash into what's effectively a makeshift sumo match with swords, and Jeramie and Jerry simply tricking each other.
"Decade, do your own thing!" Lucifer called.
Cue an Aurora Curtain passing everyone... just as a bunch of pink guards arrive at the scene, with a bunch of Heckler and Koch MP5 submachine guns.
"Ohsama! Ohsama!" A pink guard couldn't see any of the monstrous monarchs.
Location: the White House
"Dare you!" Yanma grabbed his counterpart. "My two-bit days are long gone. Get off!"
"You're broken anyways. Except for that one thing you might've hidden but powering your... N'kosopa..." 2-bit!Yanma headbutted his counterpart.
Yanma is knocked away in front of Houtaro and Nijica. In response, a wall of blue burning flame erupted from the ground, keeping both versions of the same monarchs away from each other.
"Yay! Chemy fire!" Nijica breathes fire into the monstrous monarchs, setting them aflame.
"Icy icy icy kyun!" Instead of writhing, Idol!Rita simply posed.
Cue a gust of icy wind creating cold that extinguished the flames.
"Extinguished." Nijica is caught off-guard.
"B-b-b-but the blue flames are far hotter!" Houtaro is shocked.
"This is... my King's Proof!"/"それは...私の王の証だ!" Rita is shocked.
"I guess I'll have to pick you uproot." Sell!Hymeno unsheathed her... raptorial blades, on her limbs. "You'll serve my beautiful flowers, just like I used to do."
Disdained Sell!Hymeno tried to finish off all six with her blades, only to be intercepted by Strand. Yes, literal Darkness.
"You won't go no more!" Beta has arrived. "Diana! Shadowshot!"
All four versions of Diana Jackson fired Shadowshot on Uchu!Gira and the formerly-disgraced monarchs, tethering them and slowing them down. The Oninoshima gang except the main Loopers unloaded shit on the six monstrous, but the bullets did nothing and they had to reload.
The Void tether expired, and Uchu!Gira did a dark energy slash on Pechy's friends, but the Stasis wall created by Ron blocked it.
The monstrous monarchs got floated by the power of the Space Stone and the Reality Stone.
"Enough of this nonsense. We're going to end Darkbolts." Ron floating. "And you're just their pawns."
"You're aiming to kill off our... sponsors?!" Uchu!Gira is shocked. "Poor Shatter... he's just a little friendly and fast hedgehog..."
"Shatter? SHATTER THE HEDGEHOG!?" Ron recalled.
Cue Ron getting electrocuted due to 2-bit!Yanma's King's Proof, which is literal electricity to the extreme, which bypassed the Infinity Stones because the King-Ohgers aren't even from the same multiverse. So Ron fell to the ground, pissing Pechy off.
"Fuck you!" Shadow Pechy pulled out the Thompson submachine gun (Fortnite Drum Gun) and unloaded... "Dreamcatcher Warrior Smashing Light!"
The bullets are now empowered by Pechy's powers, but the monstrous shrugged it off. Not only the bullets were too small; the monstrous counterparts to King-Ohgers is just too tough in so many way.
"Hahahaha! What a joke of an alliance! An alliance of trash and garbage!" Uchu!Gira laughed it off. "Including false kings and queens! Now... public execution shall-"
"Nope." Kyon pulled out a...
KAMEN RIDE: DIEND!
Cue red, blue and green projections of the suit, along with literal blue planes (Ride Plates) flying around, distracting the monstrous monarchs and allowing the real deal to do surprise attacks after surprise attacks after surprise attacks while retaining their relatively distinctive fighting styles. The projection then collapsed into one greyed-out suit of armor, immediately followed by the planes flying into the head and going right through the visor, completing the transformation.
Kyon has been given the Diendriver as a gift for becoming... Next Decade: the Diend form.
"Here's yours!" Kyon gave the Diendriver to Tsukasa. "You can destroy all paradoxical Rider monsters, such as Another Riders, but we're dealing with Super Sentai!"
"Thanks." Tsukasa accepted the Diendriver.
Tsukasa, in Decade Complete Form21, briefly used the form's ugliness to mock the monstrous monarchs using Kabuto Hyper and Xross Saber cards briefly repeating. This distracted the "Another King-Ohger"s because of the themes that Kabuto and Saber had, as Deadpool noted. And then...
MULTIVERSE: DIMENSION!
"Die for UNIVERSE!" The monstrous monarchs slashed together.
DIMENSION TIME! DIMENSION DAI-DAI-DAI-SHOGUN!
The transformation to Dimension Form blocked the combined finishers from the monstrous monarchs. The K-Touch pinged DECADE! spawning the AttackRide: Illusion card without needing to open the Ride Booker. Tsukasa inserts the card on the Diendriver.
ATTACK RIDE: ILLUSION!
"Kuwagata Ohger! The crown!" Tsukasa requested.
Gira pulls out the golden-plus-jewel OhgerCrown, and Tsukasa shoots it. Cue the crown being cloned into five.
"Huh? For me?" Hymeno received her copy of the crown.
"Thanks, octomush." Yanma received his copy of the crown.
With the core five having gotten their crowns, they pressed the central red gem each...
KING! KING! KING! KING! KING!
"Impossible! There cannot be more than one! Shugodom no!" Uchu!Gira is caught off-guard.
"Crossover, baby!" Deadpool exclaimed.
The core five put their crowns in their heads.
You are, I am, We are the- We are the KING! KING-OHGER!
Loop standby ends and the crowns fell down through the core five, transforming each of them into super-powered golden armored with each crown integrated neatly within the visor. The theme and stuffs behind their formation still stuck: aside from the somewhat bulky Kuwagata Ohger seen before, there's Tombo Ohger in literal technological suit not unlike that of Omega (the skin) or Iron Man (much to T'Challa's surprise), some of Hymeno's frills and puffs bleeding into Kamakiri Ohger, Papillon Ohger getting the same amount of armors as Kuwagata but much more evenly (and thus isn't as bulky), and Hachi Ohger wearing Edo-period clothes integrated into the suit and accompanying golden armors. And with the exception of the Edo clothes on Hachi (Kaguragi), all the augmented core five are mainly gold in color, and the visor integrated OhgerCrown each - because the copies spawned from Gira's crown, only Kuwagata Ohger is vulnerable, in which case hitting the crown off would depower the five.
King Kuwagata Ohger!
President Tombo Ohger!
Queen Kamakiri Ohger!
Sovereign Papillon Ohger!
Lord Hachi Ohger!
"YOU'RE UP FOR PUBLIC EXECUTION!" Rita screamed. (*18)
Cue the King-Ohgers beating up their respective counterparts, with the latter not even landing a solid hit, and instead the real deal unleashed themselves with their fighting enhanced by Ohger CrownLance - consisting of the OhgerCrown and OhgerLance. Yanma shot his counterpart down without giving him any more chance to breathe; Hymeno repeatedly hack down her counterpart with the blades; Kaguragi wins the sumo.
Hit! Search! (必殺!) Dancing King!
King-Ohger Finish!
Each putting the OhgerCrown into the OhgerLance, and giving Ohger CrownLance a massive load on demand, while Jeramie poisons his counterpart.
"Go go go go go!" The gangs cheered.
The King-Ohgers finished their alternate counterparts, in one fell swoop detransformed down to disgraced monarchs. Emerged victorious, Gira raised the CrownLance in applause from the Starstorm team.
"I'm sorry..." 2-bit!Yanma limps down, defeated.
"Well, this is the end..." Idol!Rita limps down.
Uchu!Gira looked in horror, seeing the enhanced monarchs standing in victory... "Minongan... Glodi..."
"No one is helping you." Jeramie shook his head. "You're a bygone, forgotten tragedy that we've moved on from."
"You're ended." Gira, about to end the six alternates.
Our experiment's compromised! Run!
It was the Zerobreaker/New Pandora's voice. But how? She was... erased. How is that possible?!
"No! How could she!" Chya looked up.
"Oh shit!" Ms. Continuum noticed.
You'll pay for this, worlds!
The corrupted monarchs got back up and immediately fled the scene. The King-Ohgers were distracted by the voice above, and so the alternates escaped.
"Wait... huh?" Gira noticed. "Awww..."
"Bwah." Kaguragi rolled his eyes, realizing the monstrous monarchs had escaped.
"How dare you, N.P.!" Ivy Comet cursed out. "Dear Ohsama were so close to finishing the job! You had to come back to existence and mess with us, as if Kamen Rider Chronicle want rigged enough already!"
"Damn you!"/"おのれ!" Gira is pissed.
Few hours later...
"Overnight, my people suddenly became the so-called Ride-Players. Space organizations also went missing." Gira explained what happened. "Then our Chikyu for overrun by said Ride-Players - our people gone insane - and thus a global bloodbath has started. We had to evacuate, and so we called Utchy and friends..."
"Utsusemimaru... Kyoryu Gold..." Jones got it. "So it's real. You called a time-"
"It's so complicated, I doubt you would comprehend it." Gira refuted. "We instead met a humanoid Plesiosaurus, who sicced us all into the Squid Games we never knew! We would've died if it wasn't for our powers!"
"You must have won it all. 45.6 billion won, so... 7.6 billion per people? That's 820 million yen in January 2025!" Ms. Continuum noticed.
"No, it was just red-light-green-light." Gira clarified. "An entire wasteland, where if you move while the sky's red... you die."
"You should be thanking to the stranger who told us the rules and the guide to that game." Jeramie suggested.
"That game is still ongoing, and it never seemed to end, as far as we're aware of." Gira warned everyone. "And the only way to move safely in red sky is to be completely underground!"
"I know tricks." Mike suggested. "After all, Squid Game the show became extremely popular in early 2020s."
And so, the King-Ohgers joined the Starstorm, and discussed how to survive the Red Light, Green Light. As the first game of many normal editions of the Squid Games, Red Light, Green Light (무궁화 꽃이 피었습니다) permits players to move when the system called "green light", but if the system shouted "red light" instead, players were to remain stationary while the system scanned their movements. Any player caught moving was eliminated and die altogether.
"To prevent paradox-based deaths, let me..." Tsukasa used Multiverse: Dimension.
Location: World of Legend (レジェンドの世界)
It's evening. A lot of Ride-Players are running around and then stop suddenly, and then run again, and then stopping.
Mugunghwa-kkochi pieot-seumnida~
The sky glows red, leading to the appearance of red aurora light. In the light of this, the Ride-Players completely froze their movements for a short while, at least at first.
There's one Ride-Player, however, doing very small step just as the sky fully locked in red. While it's unknown what's the exact reason leading to that Ride-Player moving like that (Can't see red sky at night? Or just not knowing to use...), but it's clear they're moving, even if it's just a little bit. And...
-*whirring* A laser went through the head, bursting the cross-wiring of the brain and then through the rest, down, down down down. That Ride-Player is a human.
Automatically detransformed, the laser-ing spurt blood, and so, they're dead. The corpse fell down, in front of another Ride-Player.
"No... no... no...!"
That Ride-Player is so horrified, they ended up stepping back due to stress and wanting to get out. They got the laser was well, and detransforming collapse.
Meanwhile, quite a few Ride-Players got caught in any movement at all and got laser straight to precise death, akin to another deadly-game related crap: the Borderland rule. (No, seriously, that was the purgatory of sorts normally. *19)
-*ping* A sound effect quickly rang across all of the full entire world, and the sky went back to evening colors. Ride-Players could move again, and many promptly do so. Any movement on their parts outside true underground covers are only permitted in this "green light" stage.
Just roughly over half minute later... Mugunghwa-kkochi pieot-seumnida~ It's "red light" again - the sky turned red even though it's only a few hours before night.
In the planet of Legend, these lasers' working lasted no more than 5 seconds after the last player in "red light" stage for eliminated, with any new elimination immediately resets the time. The "red light" stage apparently averaged 23 seconds thus far, while the "green light" apparently averaged roughly 57 seconds.
-*ping*
"Go go go!" The Ride-Players rushed.
The only ones completely immune to the rules are those working for Kamen Rider Chronicle and thus, the Darkbolts. Among them are the pink guards who may transform into Kamen Rider Zein. The body disposal were extremely simple: just seal the corpse in a Zein Card and then shred it! (*20)
Mugunghwa-kkochi pieot-seumnida~
"You're moving now. You have been eliminated." A Zein spotted a Ride-Player accidentally moving just as the sky turned red.
Shikkou! (執行!) Justice Order!
"No... No...!" That Ride-Player tried to run away.
Clock Up!
"Rider Rocket Drill Kick!"
Shikkou! (執行!) Justice Order!
Cue the right-hand rocket and left-leg drill, flying into a kick onto the offending Ride-Player.
Meanwhile, there's the Starstorm. All the Riders and senshi are transformed, covering their real mouths completely. The Ultron face in the Infinity Armor also did the same truck, as did any masking mouth. And whenever that singing blared, the sky is to turn red and so the team all froze up. Everyone's stepping stably, as to minimize the risk of falling over whenever the "red light" comes.
Few dozens of minute later, and thankfully none of the team had died. However, at that same time, dozens of Ride-Players died. The members completely ignored the Ride-Players for now, and moved on.
Their next destination? An underground bunker.
Location: [REDACTED], World of Legend
BGM: Ode to Heroes (Metaphor: ReFantazio)
"Nu-nu-nu, Ikki Igarashi!"/"ぬぬぬ五十嵐一輝!"
Young Man tied in a chair and gagged out, woken up by a mysterious yet familiar-looking Magini. He doesn't know her at all, but he's blocked from speaking.
"You too, Ho-Oh Kaguya Quartz!"
A blonde man woke up, also tied and gagged, clearly confused at what's the place or the girl.
"Magini at your service. Now, we have a magical game to play! The winner survive!"
Magini, the woman in pink and magic, gleefully summoned a literal super revolver/hand cannon: the Smith & Wesson Model 500 (chambered in .500 S&W Magnum).
No... no... no...! Ikki rejected.
Kaguya scowled, while Magini loads a round on the chamber and then spun it.
"So... this game is the Rock-Paper-Scissors-minus-bullet, a combination of Rock-Paper-Scissors-minus-one and Russian Roulette. With special rules. I'm going to spin the revolver on the table between both of you... If the gun points at any of you, I'll shoot you right then and there, a chance to end a round early. If the chamber's unused after my trigger, I spin the gun again and it's the next round." Magini explained. "But if the gun points at neither... the current round continues, and you plays Rock-Paper-Scissors on both hands, without any other gestures other than fire and water. Rock, paper, scissor, fire, and water."
What's this crazy game?! Ikki complained.
What are you doing, miss? Kaguya isn't enjoying it. You think this is gorgeous?
"Rock clench fist and beat scissor. Paper spread palm and beat rock. Scissor two fingers and beat paper. Fire claw four fingers and beat the three but can only be used once per hand, totaling twice per round. And water spills three fingers and beat fire but loses to other three." Magini continued. "Pick your choices, then use only one by pulling away the unchosen. The chosen hand determines how the rounds go. The list will get shot. Once I shoot, there's only one round at the 6-round chamber - one-in-a-sixth death, five-in-a-six survival. Survival commences next round."
Note: Utterly despicable for Darkmage15 and Uekagame to hire someone from the dark web to wreck my accounts! I had to deal with the destruction of my old gateways!
Anyways... with the Singularity Jr. finally dead, and Singularity's Phenomenal Affirmation once again getting crashed (this time with the help of the fused Bayonetta freeing herself, and the Starstorm's What-If-2021-ish fighting, Singularity assumed Zein and escaped. So the entire team fled to the United States, where Chya the Forgotten Four has also been running away from the pink guards from Squid Game (2021-2025), who all transforms into Kamen Rider Zein. Turns out not even the Meow Wolf exhibits are safe from Kamen Rider Chronicle. Chya (who can now transform into Kamen Rider Next Faiz) and Shurikenger (Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger, 忍風戦隊ハリケンジャー, 2002) (now have the Vision Driver), are on the run. And as you can see, I did not forget about the alchemy of Rainbow Gotchard, so Houtaro (as Rainbow Gotchard and beyond) and Nijigon (whether as the dragon Chemy itself or as Nijica herself) can easily transmute anything around. They've even used their alchemy on Ms. Continuum and the Night Rose to update the latter, hence the restoration as in Fortnite story quests and thus, the Puppeteer falling down to an army of Zein. Literally. And followed by dropping the alchemy-forged gliders the team used, and the Zein army quickly faltered in the bombing.
The expanded team transversed to the White House, and there's a bunch of CXA files scattered in, and more. A bunch of Shocker Cures, led by Gaoza and Shocker Cure Wonderful (Komugi Inukai). We have the Gokai Spear enhanced by Odin-Force and later Doom's engineering, all thanks to the reserves dropping a Supply Drop before the Darkbolts seized. We also have all the reserves finally uniting together to assist the full team, as well as the Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger (王様戦隊キングオージャー, 2023) joining in with the knowledge of the iconic "Red Light, Green Light" game playing on the World of Legend (レジェンドの世界). And speaking of King-Ohger(s), the return of the alternative monarchs from King-Ohger vs. Kyoryuger special is hinting towards some plans I have...
"Red Light, Green Light" carried from Squid Game (2021-2025) all the way to the Kamen Rider series (1971-) symbolizes the corruption of Kamen Rider Chronicle, which was revealed to the Starstorm and Chya by Gaoza (Komugi's restrained as of the end of this very chapter) through the Squid Games' talkie. The King-Ohgers had survived their run-in the RLGL, so they knows how to play the game, which is further added thanks to Mike's usage of social media across space-time (thanks, team Theorists!), allowing the Starstorm to walk across and stop accordingly, as the sky turns red and then back. I also returned to Alice-in-Borderland sets and featured the same lasers as the now-multimedia series, subtly destroying the failed-into-eliminated and/or rule-breaking Ride-Players with precision. The Zein army carding the corpses is also a nod to the actual event in Kamen Rider Outsiders (仮面ライダーアウトサイダーズ, 2023-2024). The next destination will be well underground, the only place in World of Legend right there that's safe from RLGL. There, Ikki Igarashi (Revi, from Revice (2021)) and Ho-Oh Kaguya Quartz (Legend, from Gotchard (2023)) - both of whom celebrates Kamen Rider as a whole in one way or another - is going to play a freak game for... Magini... Nu-nu-nu...
Be sure to promote the entire crossover project as well! Confused? Here's how you can do it: share the project and the fanfiction to social media, TV Tropes pages, appropriate forums and conversations, and get everyone to know and help! (No drama please!)
Until next time...
Cross-trivia:
(*1) - Singularity engulfing stuffs with his fog. See Bayonetta 3 (2022).
(*2) - The Ultima state represents Houtaro's "Gotcha" of creating a world where Chemies can live in peace and harmony. First accessed after repairing his Gotchadriver in episode 50 of Kamen Rider Gotchard (仮面ライダーガッチャード, 2023), Gotchard's stats are in the highest degree, surpassing all of his previous forms altogether, with Ultima Steamhopper even outclassing Rainbow Gotchard except for lower max jump height. This state also has the ability to manipulate further stronger alchemy, as seen with Ultima Steamhopper when Gotchard transmutes multiple giant, Dreatroopers alongside all the gold created by Kamen Rider Eld into the New Earth for the Chemies to live on, and can use the powers of all 101 Chemies to defeat the enemy with ease. (The finisher "Steamhopper Ultima Fever" is also powerful enough to retransmute the Philosopher's Stone)
To do alchemy alongside Nijigon as Nijica - who can perform extreme alchemy that Rainbow Gotchard and better can perform as well due to her nature - Houtaro assumed Ultima Rainbow Gotchard with the Nijigon Ride Chemy Cards in the Nijigon buckle-combined repaired Gotchardriver of his. Ultima Rainbow Gotchard has the double the running speed to the normal Rainbow (100 meters per 0.05 second, instead of 0.1 second) but 10.1 times the other stats (828.2 ton max punch, 1,010 ton kick, 1,737.2 meter jump), and pushes Houtaro's alchemy to the limits, matching Nijica as Gotchard. Hence the idea.
(*3) - Episode 33 of Kamen Rider Gotchard (仮面ライダーガッチャード, 2023) had the Hundred from the World of Legend invading the World of Gotchard, with one of their Four, Mimei as Kamen Rider Glare (from Kamen Rider Geats (仮面ライダーギーツ, 2022)) is confronted by Zein, who killed her with Super-1 card. Houtaro didn't see Mimei dying to the AI, hence Kyon's comment.
(*4) - Originating from Fate/Grand Order (2015-).
As opposed to the Proper Human History, the history of 'winners' born from correct choices and proper prosperities leading to the "present", the history of 'losers' born from the wrong choices and mistaken prosperity is cut off. Considered "unnecessary" and cut off from becoming even parallel worlds, this history which has hit a dead end is known as a Lostbelt (異聞帯). If one thinks of Human History as one long scroll, the Lostbelts are like another scroll entirely that was discarded once it was clear it was no longer useful.
Turning a Lostbelt into a Singularity changes the history of a Lostbelt and make it "real", a new history capable of comparing to Proper Human History with its "strength", becoming a "Lost World". Because they are as real as inhabitants from Proper History, some Lostbelt inhabitants are able to exit a Lostbelt and can emigrate to Proper History without disappearing. However, in the British Lostbelt's case, as the humans of the Lostbelt are not natural lifeforms and with no reproductive ability, and were created back when the Tree was still alive and history still a fantasy, they remain a fantasy that can only exist in the Lost World. Meanwhile, the fairies are real and can exist in Proper History, as they could be born after the Lostbelt became real. As the time before the Tree died is still considered a "fantasy", it allows for an amount of discrepancy, such as sending a Calamity or a person from Proper History back in time, as no matter how much the Fantasy history changes as a result, the beginning of the "real" history when the Tree dies is set in stone. Once the Tree withers, those time-travelled elements disappear as it contradicts the event of the real history, and inhabitants with memories of those contradictions will revert to the previous version of events without the time-displaced elements. However, if those elements do not make any contradictions in history until they reach the time when they were first sent back in time, they can avoid the paradox and prevent disappearing. Despite this, after history becomes "real", if someone from the Singularity recognises an individual from the Lostbelt as something different to what "real" history says, or an individual from the Lostbelt remembers someone from the Singularity, then the individual from the Lostbelt will become someone who "should not exist" and be erased due to the paradox; memories of that individual will, however, remain.
Following the attack on Chaldea in 2017, the bleaching of the world and the declaration of rebellion against the Proper Human History, with the threat of a regression into the Age of Gods and the recreation of the world, the survivors are forced to use an experimental method of navigating through Imaginary Number Space, through the Lostbelts, in order to resolve the incident. After all of the Lostbelts have been established, the Crypters seek to expand the "domain" of their own Lostbelts, which will eventually clash with the other Lostbelts. The one that is built by greater Human Foundation will end up overtaking the weaker one and use it as "nutrients". This process will allegedly continue, until only one Lostbelt is remaining. Koyanskaya describes the Proper Human History as "easy mode" and the Lostbelts as "hard mode", though the veracity of her statement has yet to be fully determined.
Similar to the Human Order Foundation Values associated with the Singularities, the Lostbelts have an associated value known as a Lost Depth (異聞深度). Lost Depth is a rank to display how much the Human Order in a Lostbelt has deviated from that of the Proper Human History.
(*5) - The Desire Royale (from Kamen Rider Geats (仮面ライダーギーツ, 2022)) is a reformatted version of the Desire Grand Prix where participating Kamen Riders fight each other within a "last man standing" ruleset.
(*6) - RG's Minigun is an assault weapon in Fortnite: Battle Royale (2017), that was added in Chapter 2 Remix (2024). RG's Minigun is a Mythic version of the Minigun.
RG's Minigun has no magazine limit, fires much faster than other assault weapons, and has a cooldown period if fired for too long. The cooldown period exists to balance the lack of a magazine. RG's Minigun is not very accurate, and has a spin up timer, which means the player cannot fire it instantly. Unlike the original Minigun, RG's Minigun winds up faster and can fire for a much longer period of time. And as the gun is firing, the second half of the third verse of "Rap God" by Eminem will play, and the song's lyrics will pop out of the tip of the gun. (If copyrighted music is off, the song nor the visual lyrics will appear while firing)
(*7) - Ninpuu Sentai Hurricaneger (忍風戦隊ハリケンジャー, 2002) got Americanized into Power Rangers Ninja Storm (2003), and the counterpart to Shurikenger (originally Asuka turned anonymous, later Tenkai (天界)) is the Green Samurai Ranger, Cameron Watanabe.
(*8) - See Successor of Anti-Life.
(*9) - Akiko Yamaguchi/Star Reverie, of Battle Fantasia Project.
(*10) - My Brave Pony: Starfleet Magic (formerly My Little Unicorn: Magic is Believing) by Dakari-King Mykan, in which Starfleet, a team of alicorns led by main character Lightning Dawn, must save the land of Unicornicopia from various monsters, while learning about the power of believing (what they are supposed to believe in is stated just once: themselves) from the king of Unicornicopia, The Grand Ruler (a three-horned Alicorn). Initially only having subtle references to its source material, by the end of season 1 the Friendship is Magic cast was folded into the story, with the Mane 6 joining Starfleet as a secondary unit. The power of believing theme that permeated the original season also gradually went away, turning the series into a straight action story with monsters-of-the-week, and a rotating cast of villains. The series is treated as if it were a TV show, with each fanfic being called a "season" and each chapter an "episode".
(*11) - Komugi Inukai (犬飼こむぎ), formerly known as Kurihara Marron (栗原マロン), is one of the four main Cures in Wonderful Pretty Cure! (2024). She later becomes a second-year student at Second Wangan Middle School.
Komugi transforms into Cure Wonderful. As a dog, she ends her sentences with "~wan" (～わん). Her catchphrase, which she adopted from Iroha's own, is "Wonderful~" (わんだふるー!).
(*12) - The Lucky Seven from Xenoblade Chronicles 3 (ゼノブレイド3, 2022) went to Pechy in chapter #17, and she definitely got to train thanks to Kendo (see that emote in Fortnite?).
(*13) - Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger (百獣戦隊ガオレンジャー, 2001).
(*14) - Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger (王様戦隊キングオージャー, 2023) is a Japanese Tokusatsu-drama and the 47th installment in Toei Company's Super Sentai series (1975-). Maining this show is the King-Ohgers the 47th Super Sentai, or on occasion, referred to as the 48th team.
Formed from an alliance amongst the five different kingdoms of Chikyu, the team is formally known as the Five Kingdom Anti-Incident Strategic Rescue Team (五王国異様事案対策用戦略救命部隊), also known as the Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger (王様戦隊キングオージャー) for short, named after their guardian spirit King-Ohger. Prior to this, they were instead referred to as the Ohsama Sentai (王様戦隊). With the induction of a sixth kingdom in Chikyu, the numeral in the full team title was changed to six, donning the Six Kingdom Anti-Incident Strategic Rescue Team (六王国異様事案対策用戦略救命部隊).
(*15) - The parallel is that Dreamcatcher: The Legend of the Emerald, The Last Dream Wish and Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger (*14) shares the same year: 2023. There's also the two-year timeskips, so...
(*16) - Kamakiri Ohger's civilian first name is derived from the scientific name for the orchid mantis, Hymenopus coronatus, while her last name is derived from its Japanese name, ranhana kamakiri (蘭花蟷螂). Notably, some sources spelled Hymeno herself as Himeno, which adds a pun on "hime" (姫), Japanese for "princess", fitting for her role as the princess-turned-queen of Ishabana.
(*17) - This fic takes place after Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger vs. Kyoryuger (2024), V-Cine crossover of Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger (王様戦隊キングオージャー, 2023) (*14) and Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger (獣電戦隊キョウリュウジャー, 2013).
