Kamen Rider: Evolution

At the same time, Jiang Xia's consciousness was also connected to the insect device that could be used with him through the belt.

"Even without transforming, I can still unleash a portion of its power."

This belt is different from other knight belts; anyone who wears it...

Their own power will be enhanced, and even without transforming, they can gain power beyond that of ordinary people.

Jiang Xia pushed open the car door and stepped into the battlefield.

"Mr. Tadokoro, what's wrong with you!"

Kagami hurriedly opened the car door and looked at the two people who had just been freed from their restraints.

“We’re fine, it’s just that a stranger stole our belts,” Misaki Yuzuki said, shaking her head.

Let's pretend we didn't hear what the person who stole the belt said about Tadokoro Shuichi being dead. We'll have a proper chat with Tadokoro when we have the chance.

"Damn it, with our belts stolen, we've lost our ability to fight the Zerg."

Kagami stormed out of the car with a look of resentment on his face. Even without the belt, he was determined to fight.

Protecting the human heart is not about using belts as a distinguishing feature.

"Kagami."

Shuichi Tadokoro watched Kagami Arata's retreating figure as he charged towards the Zerg with a pistol, and slowly spoke.

By the time Kagami arrived, all the ant soldiers had already fallen to the ground, and screams could be heard coming from all over the stairs.

The screams abruptly ceased, and the battlefield was now as silent as a dead city, surrounded by smoke and bullet holes.

Kagami, holding his small pistol, looked around the stairwell. He sensed the alien insects nearby, watching him intently, which made his entire body tense up.

Until he saw the sun.

A person standing high up and an alien insect stared at each other. Kagami could clearly see that the person standing in the sun was wearing the belt that originally belonged to him.

"You bastard, is it you who stole the belt?" Kagami shouted.

If it weren't for the alien insect standing between them, he would have rushed forward and snatched the belt back.

"?" Tendou Souji looked at this person, whose clothes and appearance were very ordinary, with a puzzled expression.

A belt? What belt? I've had my own belt for seven years.

"This is my belt," Tendou replied coldly.

There's no time to deal with him now; the focus is on the Zerg.

He has a very deep and irreconcilable relationship with the Zerg, the kind that's like a fight to the death.

"I will defeat all the alien insects, I will." Tendou Souji said, looking at the ugly alien insect in front of him.

As the Heavenly Dao raised its arm, the surrounding sunlight suddenly intensified, becoming exceptionally dazzling.

A small blue portal opened in the air, and a beetle with a metallic sheen and a bright red body flew from the sky to the side of Tendou Souji, bathed in sunlight.

"I am the chosen one." Tendou Souji gently grasped the insect device in his hand.

"Now, I hold the future in my hands; I've been waiting for this moment."

"No, I lived for this moment!" Tendou Souji shouted.

"A famous transformation scene."

Jiang Xia walked out from the side, and he was now wearing a belt that was exactly the same as Tian Dao's.

He lived up to expectations and was also selected by another insect instrument.

However, compared to the sun god like Tendou Souji standing in the sunlight, the one who recognizes Jiang Xia at this moment is the knight system that appeared before the sun god Kabuto.

If the sun god is the supreme ruler of the heavens, then the black sun after the sunlight is swallowed up is the symbol of Jiangxia.

The beetle, entirely black and identical to the one in Tendou Souji's hand, also came into his possession.

"Transformation."

Tendou Souji and Enka simultaneously inserted the insect-controlling devices into their belts.

The metal armor extended from his waist to his entire body, and his bloodshot eyes were also covered by the thick armor.

"There are two Kamen Riders?"

Kagami was completely bewildered by the two knights, one standing in the sunlight and the other in the shadows, who looked almost identical.

Who was the one who actually stole the belt?

Chapter 173 Kusakabe Hee

At this moment, both Kabuto and Dark Kabuto attacked the Zerg simultaneously.

"Who are you?" Tiandao clenched his fists and sent the alien insect flying with unimaginable speed.

"Just like you, a knight."

Seeing the alien insect lying on the ground, Jiang Xia raised his right foot and kicked it hard.

The alien insect, which had not yet gained its footing, suddenly felt a force beyond its body's limits coming from behind it.

Jiang Xia's current power has far exceeded the data limit of Dark Kabuto.

With just one strike, the alien insect was kicked several meters away, and its body slammed into the wall.

With a loud bang, it punched a large hole through the wall of the abandoned building.

The Knight System is a weapon; the stronger the wearer, the greater the power they unleash. Although Jiang Xia was injured, he had already killed tens of thousands of these molting alien insects.

"So that's how it is." Tiandao said, looking at Jiang Xia's clean and efficient movements.

As Kagami Shin looked at the alien insects that were powerless to resist under the two men, his desire for the Knight System rose once again in his heart.

The moment Tendou Souji drew his gun to attack, the figure of the alien insect that had been knocked to the ground suddenly became blurry.

Kagami Shin felt an invisible pressure coming with the disappearance of the alien insects, which made his heart tremble.

He was afraid because he knew about the Zerg's abilities; it was a super-fast speed that humans simply couldn't handle.

They will be killed instantly without even having a chance to react.

"Be careful, that alien insect has entered Clock Up. It's incredibly fast, beyond human capabilities. The Rider System should have equipment to counter it. Find it!" Kagami shouted a warning.

"There's no need for that."

Upon seeing this, Tendou Souji immediately flipped his weapon over so that the axe blade faced outwards. This weapon was originally a combination of a spear and an axe, capable of both ranged and melee combat.

“I can see it,” Jiang Xia said calmly.

The alien insect is no ordinary creature it is facing. Even Tiandao and Jiang Xia, who are in their masked forms, can sense the location of the alien insect that has entered the hyper-acceleration mode.

In the sufficiently silent battlefield, Jiang Xia remained motionless and threw a powerful punch forward, so fast that it left an afterimage.

Tendou Souji held the axe blade forward and braced it with his arm.

"boom!"

The alien insect that had disappeared seemed to have collided with some kind of indestructible metal. Its body trembled slightly, and its ferocious mouthparts opened instantly, letting out a miserable scream.

The alien insect, which was entirely red and looked somewhat like a spider, had a fist-shaped mark clearly imprinted on its chest, while on its abdomen, an axe blade had cleaved open a large gash.

The pale blue flames, accompanied by the impact, sent Kagami, who was completely unarmored, flying away.

The smoke from the impact and explosion slowly covered everything, and Kagami could only see two knights in armor facing each other in the dust.

“The ZECT people are here. See you next time, Sun God - Tendou Souji,” Jiang Xia said.

“You seem to know a lot about me. Let’s have a match next time we meet,” Tendou Souji said.

Tendou Souji could sense that a very powerful opponent was hidden beneath this identical armor, which aroused his competitive spirit.

"I'll definitely do it next time," Jiang Xia said with a smile.

As the smoke cleared, Shuichi Tadokoro led his ant soldiers, dressed in black combat uniforms, to the scene. This was a reinforcement force sent by headquarters.

However, Tadokoro Osamu kept seeing Kagami lying on the ground and the abandoned building plaza.

……

"Good morning, brother." Tree Flower greeted Heaven as usual.

However, Tiandao noticed something was wrong with his sister, even though her actions were as lively and cheerful as usual.

But he always felt that something was wrong. It wasn't a problem with the person, but rather that something had appeared on the tree flower.

Tendou Souji paused for a moment, carefully examining the tree blossoms.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Shuhua asked, puzzled.

Tendou Souji also suddenly noticed that Shuka was wearing a necklace he had never seen before.

"Tree Flower, can I see the necklace around your neck?"

Tendou Souji put down the newspaper. He had originally intended to check if yesterday's events had made the news, but compared to the tree flowers, none of that mattered anymore.

"Oh, you mean this? It was given to me by someone who said he was my brother's good friend."

Shuhua carefully took off the necklace hanging around her neck and handed it to Tendou Souji.

"My friend? No, my friend has only heard of my sister. Even if they were to give something, they wouldn't do it to Shuhua in private. Besides, this is far too precious."

Tendou Souji took the necklace, but the focus wasn't on the necklace itself, but on what was hanging at the very bottom of it.

He gazed at the ruby, its surface as smooth as new, and fell into deep thought.

Anyone with even a basic understanding of gemstones could tell that this gemstone was absolutely priceless, let alone someone as knowledgeable about gemstones as him.

Tendou Souji is a genius who excels in all aspects. He can master any skill through learning in a short period of time, making him a near-perfect genius.

Tendou Souji gazed at it intently, and in the sunlight, he could almost see the flames dancing inside the gem, like a ball of molten lava burning. Just by holding it gently, he could experience its perfect tactile sensation.

This gem is more valuable than everything in the Tiandao family combined; it could even buy the school where Shuhua is located and make him the principal.

"Who could it be?" Tendou Souji stared at the ruby, slowly eliminating all the candidates in his mind, until…

"It's the person who owns the same belt as me and knows me very well."

After ruling out everyone he knew, Tendou Souji got the answer.
