I, Shura Armor, choose Belia at the beginning

"That's such a pity, you're just missing out on the good food."

Upon hearing this, Tsukasa Kadoya immediately shook his head, then picked up the exquisitely crafted latte and began to savor it.

He paid no attention to Aura, who was watching him intently from the side.

And Ur, who was staring curiously at the coffee in his hand.

The former is because Tsukasa Kadoya is angry because he is ignored.

The latter was genuinely curious about what the coffee Tsukasa Kadoya brewed would taste like.

"Hey, are you even listening to me? It's always the same, you always ignore me!"

Finally, unable to bear it any longer, Aura glared angrily at Tsukasa Kadoya and said...

"Don't rush, you're not the main character today."

Tsukasa Kadoya quickly finished his coffee before speaking slowly and deliberately.

"You're saying things I can't understand again. It's so exhausting to communicate with you. Can't you stop using riddles?"

Aura's anger did not subside despite Tsukasa's explanation; instead, she became even more agitated.

"You're here to see me, right? Just say what you want to say, there's no need to beat around the bush."

Just then, Swartz suddenly looked at Tsukasa Kadoya and said.

He seemed to have figured out Tsukasa Kadoya's purpose.

After all, from the moment we left until now, Tsukasa Kadoya has been glancing at Swartz every five seconds on average.

Although it was a well-disguised covert observation.

But the experienced Swartz understood the meaning behind it.

"There is something, but it's nothing serious. You just need to agree."

Upon hearing this, Tsukasa Kadoya's face once again revealed his signature wicked smile.

Generally speaking, if he smiles like that, especially at the enemy, it means the enemy is about to suffer.

"What is it? As long as it's reasonable, I can agree to it. After all, we'll be comrades from now on."

Swartz had no idea what was going to happen next.

He genuinely believed that Tsukasa Kadoya needed something from him.

"Here's the thing, I'm not a person who likes to be subordinate to others."

"Back when I was in Shocker, I was the top leader of Shocker, and I was one of the best in other places as well."

"Now that I've joined the Time Jackers, my status and treatment should be improved."

“I’m very interested in the Time Jackers, so I chose to join, but I don’t want to be an ordinary member.”

"Then I can only become the leader of the robbers. Would you be willing to step down and yield the position to a more capable person?"

Tsukasa Kadoya spoke in a light and unhurried tone.

Finally, he revealed his true intentions, looking at Swartz with a sly smile.

His words, coupled with his current expression, were brimming with provocation.

Swartz, who had just been feigning humility and wearing a gentle smile, froze upon seeing this.

Aura and Ur were also stunned on the spot.

Both of them stared wide-eyed at Tsukasa Kadoya, their faces filled with astonishment.

The two of them were truly surprised that Tsukasa Kadoya would provoke Swartz so brazenly.

However, the two were only surprised at first; their expressions quickly turned strange.

No one knew better than Ur and Aura just how terrifying Swartz was.

The time-traveling power they used was bestowed upon them by Swartz.

It's fair to say that without Swartz, the Time Jackers would never have existed.

Without him, no one else could even travel through time.

The idea that a time thief cannot travel through time is a joke.

So now both Ur and Aura feel that Tsukasa Kadoya might have drunk too much.

Can coffee make you drunk?
"So that's how it is. Are you challenging me?"

"However, the Time Robbers are not like a pride of lions on the plains. The idea that the victor becomes the leader is something only barbarians do."

Swartz narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Kadoya Tsukasa with hostility, and after a long while, he slowly spoke. He did not immediately turn against Kadoya Tsukasa because of his provocation.

Because Tsukasa Kadoya is also another important part of the Swartz Project.

It's not the right time to make a move against Tsukasa Kadoya; the timing isn't right.

When the time is right, no matter how well Tsukasa Kadoya does, he will succeed.

Swartz would also target him and try to seize his power.

“I know what you’re thinking. You’re actually after my power. I was going to play along with your act, but suddenly I don’t want to anymore.”

"Don't think of yourself as too important. The Time Jackers can function normally without you because I also have the ability to travel through time."

"Therefore, from any perspective, I am qualified to become the new leader of the Time Jackers."

Seeing Swartz's forced smile, Tsukasa Kadoya stopped pretending altogether.

He tore off his last pretense and ruthlessly exposed Swartz's thoughts.

And he provoked the other party in an arrogant manner.

"It seems you know quite a lot, but knowing too much isn't always a good thing; it can become your death warrant."

After hearing Tsukasa Kadoya's undisguised and blunt words.

Swartz's smile vanished completely, replaced by a cold and menacing expression.

The reason he was pretending was because he wanted to be the sixth in command so he could ambush and kill Tsukasa Kadoya later.

As a result, Tsukasa Kadoya directly said what was on his mind.

Since that's the case, there's no need for him to pretend anymore. The other party already knows what he's thinking, and if he continues to pretend, he'll just become a clown.

There is an old Chinese saying: "A common man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure."

"So, in your opinion, who among us is the commoner, and who is the gem?"

After seeing that Swartz had completely turned against him, Tsukasa Kadoya's mocking expression became even more intense.

"Although I don't really want to take action against you beforehand, you have crossed my line."

"Whether you're a commoner or a jade, it doesn't matter. You're just a pawn in my plan."

Click!

Swartz didn't listen to Tsukasa Kadoya at all.

Because he really wasn't very educated and couldn't understand that idiom.

Now that they've completely fallen out, Swartz is preparing to seize Tsukasa Kadoya's power ahead of schedule.

After he finished speaking, he used his time-stopping ability to freeze time in the entire world.

"Your mistake was being so arrogant and confident. If I dare to use it, you must have your own trump cards to deal with me."

"You really think I'm some clueless kid? You arrogant and conceited fellow, you should pay the price."

Swartz walked up to Tsukasa Kadoya, who was frozen in time, and said in a cold tone with a mocking expression.

After saying that, he suddenly reached out and pressed his hand down on Tsukasa Kadoya's head!

Swish!
The next moment, a powerful force of spacetime surged.

The power of Kamen Rider within Tsukasa Kadoya was rapidly condensed in Swartz's hands.

Just the blink of an eye.

The Rider power within Tsukasa Kadoya transformed into a Rider watch face, which Swartz held in his hand.

This means that Tsukasa Kadoya has lost the power to transform at this point.

He couldn't even summon the driver.

Because his knightly power had been taken away by Swartz.

Swartz had used this move once before in the original timeline.

However, Tsukasa Kadoya was prepared and had taken out half of his power in advance.

However, Tsukasa Kadoya has not made any arrangements for this.

His knightly power has truly vanished.
