Super God Academy: Kabuto

Leading the group was the Crimson Knight, Decade (Tsukasa Kadoya), who casually flicked his other hand, one hand in his pocket, as if blocking the attack was nothing more than a casual gesture. Behind him followed Xin Zhao, who had deactivated his transformation and was slightly out of breath but still full of fighting spirit, and Zhi Xin, who had breathed a sigh of relief.

Slightly behind Tsukasa Kadoya was a figure that surprised Ge Xiaolun and everyone present who knew her—Qilin. But Qilin at this moment was completely different from usual.

She wore a lightweight armor somewhat similar in style to Tsukasa Kadoya's, but more form-fitting and streamlined, primarily dark blue and silver with lightning patterns (Kamen Rider Raibou Trooper Basic Form). Her helmet featured compound eyes, and she had a sharp horn on her forehead. In her hand, she held a futuristic-looking energy rifle with a slightly glowing muzzle (Raibou Insectoid Transformation). More importantly, her gaze and demeanor had changed; she had lost some of the calm and sharpness typical of a sniper, and gained more… a wildness, excitement, and eagerness.

"Ha! Not bad! Although I'm not used to using a gun, your speed and reaction are much better than that kid Ryotaro's!" "Qilin" spoke, but it was Momotaros's signature loud voice. She also moved her armored arms and twisted her neck, which she was not used to.

"Momotaros! Focus on yourself! Don't touch Kirin's body!" Tsukasa Kadoya shouted without turning his head.

"I know, I know! So long-winded! Hey, you winged black guy over there!" Momotaros (possessed by Qi Lin) raised her energy rifle, pointing it directly at Hua Ye in the sky, her voice full of provocation, "That sneak attack wasn't all you did! Come on, fight me head-on... oh no, I mean, fight me face-to-face!"

This strange combination and dialogue caused a momentary stagnation on the battlefield. Tianzha and Taotie were somewhat bewildered, and even Hua Ye narrowed his one eye, carefully examining the crimson knight below and the woman (?) wearing strange armor and speaking arrogantly.

Ge Xiaolun was also stunned, but immediately heard Qi Lin's weak but clear voice through the communication channel: "Xiaolun... Brother, it's me... Senior Momotaros is temporarily borrowing my body... to assist in the battle... I'm fine, conscious..."

It turns out that on his way to Frazier, Momotaros became interested in Qi Lin's body, which contained special lightning genes and had been secretly enhanced by Lin Yu and He Xi (he called it "having a good spark"). With Qi Lin's consent and Tsukasa Kadoya's half-hearted permission, he attempted to "possess" her. It turned out that Qi Lin's super genes were highly compatible with the Thunderfly Insect Device. Not only could it bear Momotaros's consciousness and some of his power, but it also unexpectedly activated and stabilized the Thunderfly Armor's higher potential, forming this unique "possessed rider" state. Qi Lin's own consciousness acted as the "co-pilot," responsible for precise aiming, tactical judgment, and stabilizing her physical state, while Momotaros provided combat experience, time perception, and... that inextinguishable fighting spirit and verbal sparring.

"Interesting..." Hua Ye snapped out of his daze, a cruel smile spreading across his lips. "Another strange fellow has arrived, possessing a female super soldier? No matter what you are, you're all going to die here today!"

He pointed his longsword into the void, and massive dark energy and void energy began to converge. His wings also fully unfurled, and his aura suddenly surged. The terrifying pressure of his fifth-generation divine body was released without reservation, causing many angel warriors below to feel breathless.

"Tch, too much nonsense." Tsukasa Kadoya sneered, his hand already on the Decade Driver at his waist. "Momotaros, as planned, disrupt his energy gathering and spatial awareness to create an opportunity for me. The rest of you, clear out the minions and don't let them bother us."

【Kamen Ride!】abuto!

A crimson light flashes, and Tsukasa Kadoya transforms into Kamen Rider Decade Kabuto form!

"Understood!" Momotaros (possessed by Qilin) ​​responded excitedly. The light thrusters on the back of the Thunderfly Armor emitted blue-white flames, and her (his) figure instantly transformed into a winding and leaping lightning trajectory, shuttling through the air at a dazzling speed. The energy rifle in her hand no longer fired physical bullets, but instead fired a series of disruptive high-frequency electromagnetic pulses and time ripples, specifically targeting key nodes of energy flow and spatial positioning reference points around Hua Ye.

"A mere trick!" Hua Ye sneered, attempting to freeze Momotaros (Qilin)'s movement directly with the void force field. However, the Thunderfly Armor itself had a certain resistance to spacetime interference, and with Momotaros's keen intuition about changes in time, she always managed to narrowly avoid the core binding area of ​​the force field and continue to cause trouble.

At the same time, Tsukasa Kadoya (Kabuto form) activated Clock Up, transforming into a streak of magenta light and appearing beside Hua Ye as if by teleportation. The Card Box Sword, with its sharpness capable of cutting through rules, pierced straight into Hua Ye's ribs!

"Hmph! The same trick won't work on me!" Although Hua Ye's senses were partially disrupted by Momotaros, his reaction speed and energy perception as a fifth-generation god were still terrifying. He turned around and blocked with his Void Sword, while at the same time, he condensed a ball of pitch-black Void Energy in his left palm and slammed it hard at Kadoya Tsukasa!

【Attack Ride!】Blast!

Without hesitation, Tsukasa Kadoya activated his attack card, unleashing a powerful burst of magenta energy from the tip of his card-shaped sword, which collided with Hua Ye's void energy ball!

boom!

The energy explosion temporarily separated the two. Hua Ye took a small half-step back, while Kadoya Tsukasa glided even further away, his armor stained with a trace of the corrosive void energy, but it was quickly purified by the magenta light.

"As expected, the fifth-generation divine body combined with the complete Void Engine is much more troublesome than last time." Tsukasa Kadoya's (Kabuto) voice came through the armor. "Momotaros, increase the interference power! Switch to 'Electrotherapy' mode!"

"Understood! Behold my 'Super Electromagnetic Carnival'!" Momotaros (Qilin) ​​yelled, and the Thunderfly Armor's horn and chest energy core simultaneously lit up with dazzling blue-white electric light. She aimed her energy rifle at Hua Ye, firing not pulses, but a continuous, thick chain of lightning with high-frequency oscillations and time delay effects! This chain of lightning did not attack directly, but rather, like living vines, coiled around Hua Ye's void wings and energy nodes, attempting to disrupt the stability of his energy cycle!

Hua Ye felt a tingling and sluggish sensation coming from his wings; the energy flow had indeed become slightly disordered, which made him even angrier: "Annoying bug! I'll crush you first!"

He temporarily abandoned his attack on Tsukasa Kadoya, turned around, and slashed his Void Sword in the air towards Momotaros (Kirin)!

A long, narrow void rift, seemingly capable of swallowing everything, instantly formed and spread toward Momotaros (Qilin) ​​at an extremely fast speed!

This attack was powerful and fast, locking onto Momotaros (Qilin)'s movement trajectory!

"Oh no!" Ge Xiaolun and Zhao Xin exclaimed at the same time.

"Kirin!" Kadoya Tsukasa's heart tightened.

However, Momotaros (Qilin), despite being in danger, did not panic. Instead, Qilin's extremely calm voice rang out on the communication channel: "Left wing thrusters at full power, reverse three o'clock position, spin, evasion angle seventy-five degrees, now!"

At the same time, Momotaros's consciousness erupted with intense excitement: "Oh my god! Here it comes! Exciting! Leave it to me!"

The Thunderfly Armor made a sharp-angle turn in mid-air with a hair's breadth, almost defying the laws of physics, narrowly missing the edge of the void rift! The rift's suction even tore off a few fragments from the edge of the armor, but the main body remained intact!

"Beautiful!" Tsukasa Kadoya couldn't help but praise, seizing the opening revealed during Hua Ye's attack gap, and once again activated the Time-Up Charge!

Attack Ride! Slash!

The crimson sword light seemed to cleave through space itself, slashing towards Hua Ye's back, which was slightly vulnerable due to his turn to attack!

Hua Ye hastily turned to block, his sword light colliding with the void longsword, unleashing a piercing shriek. This time, Kadoya Tsukasa was charging forward, and Hua Ye's hasty response, coupled with Momotaros's (Qilin) ​​continuous electromagnetic and temporal interference, actually caused Hua Ye to be forced back by the impact of the sword, and a tiny crack appeared on the void longsword!

"Damn it!" Hua Ye glanced down at the crack on his sword, a look of shock and anger flashing in his single eye for the first time. These two strange fellows, working together, could actually pose a real threat and cause him damage?

The battlefield situation underwent a subtle shift due to the addition of the unusual duo of Tsukasa Kadoya and Momotaros (possessed by Qi Lin). Hua Ye was temporarily restrained, and the offensive of the Heavenly Scum and the Gluttonous Beasts was also slightly contained by the counterattacks of the Angels, the Super Soldier Corps, and Zhao Xin's Blazing Heart, as the Supreme Commander had lost his strong suppression.

However, everyone knew that Hua Ye's true strength and the terrifying power of his fifth-generation divine body were far more than that. The real battle had only just begun.
