While eating, Qian walked into the wooden house from the other side of the door. She forgot to take her schoolbag and ended up seeing Ash eating secretly.
"Really?" Ash bit off a lot of crumbs with a crunch and chewed on one cheek. "Not bad, bring me some next time."
"Really, what's wrong with you..."
Don't you have any sense of shame? I feel a little shy saying this...
Now, they were alone again.
Chapter 60: Failing at the Critical Moment
Seeing that he was not shaken at all by her words, Akane simply put down her schoolbag and sat opposite the man who was enjoying snacks alone, with her whole face resting on the table and staring at him. Ash continued to eat his cookies without any concern, letting her watch.
"Kacha—kacha—"
“…”
A different kind of eye-to-eye contest has begun.
If it is said that girls eat snacks with a different stomach, then Ash is no exception. He ate all the chocolates, biscuits and other snacks that the girls had put here one by one as if they were meals, and stuffed them all into his mouth in front of the stunned Akane.
"Wait a minute—we clearly prepared these ourselves, and you've almost finished them!"
Seeing that he even took out her treasured senbei and swallowed them, Akane immediately slammed the table and stood up.
Just eat a couple of bites, you're eating snacks like you're seeking revenge! We prepared these for ourselves!
Pausing his crumb-stained mouth, Ash gave her a slightly puzzled look.
No, I just ate two of your cakes, what's wrong?
"Why, I'm your companion now, after all, so I'm not allowed to eat?"
However, because my taste buds had a rare reaction, I wanted to try it more often, but by the time I came to my senses, the storm had already hit me.
"If you want to eat, then go ahead...but at least you have to follow the rules and put your snacks in there."
"Hmm...Is that so? Well, that's fair."
Then why not bring them some other world specialties next time?
Throwing the last cookie into his mouth, Ash licked the non-existent taste on his fingers and nodded thoughtfully at this rare and wonderful "sharing".
"puff..."
Ash, who used to be domineering and did whatever he wanted, agreed stupidly at this moment, which made Qian, who was originally a little aggrieved, burst into laughter.
There are crumbs all over his mouth from eating. He's as careless as a child in this regard... Hey, what's that next to his cheek?
The bloodstains on the man's face awakened her memories from not long ago. Thinking of something, Qian opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but closed it again before that. The hesitant sound of shoes tapping on the spot came from under the table, and Qian suddenly asked him in a gentle voice that was not like her own.
"Um...Ash, all the glass fell on you at that time, are you okay?"
Hearing Qian's hesitant worry, Ash paused for a moment, wiped the crumbs from the corner of his mouth on his pants, and then proudly pulled up his suit collar to show off.
"I once asked the old man to help me make a bulletproof suit by hand. How is it? Are you envious?"
"No, no, no, generally speaking, girls wouldn't envy a bulletproof suit, right? If it's a pretty skirt or something, then it's possible..." Akane couldn't help but hold her forehead at Ash's sudden amused look. What are you trying to do with this show-off look of "I'm so awesome, you must be envious, come and praise me?"
But I'm glad you weren't hurt.
Strolling over to Ash, Akane tore the object from her hand and pressed it against his face in front of the confused man.
Only then did she seem to realize what she had done. She quickly turned her head to a place where Ash couldn't see her and ran out without looking back.
"Anyway, this will do—you're so confident today, but if you let us down tomorrow, I won't forgive you!"
Ash was a little confused by the fact that he ran away from him and said the last sentence breathlessly. He touched the rough touch on his face.
This seems like... a Band-Aid?
Was it the card cut earlier? The bleeding should have stopped on its own, and yet this happened... well, forget it.
"Oh, how cute~"
Today is destined to be a sleepless night.
Some people stayed up all night because of the impending end of the earth, some calmed down and made up their minds to fight again tomorrow, some simply knelt on the tatami and meditated like a practitioner, and some were so calm that they lay in bed and thought and struggled, but ended up falling asleep while hugging the elf.
As for Ash...he is now as sleepless as he was in the past five days.
It happened to be the second day of the weekend. The girls reluctantly said goodbye to their entertainment arrangements for the day off and came to an uninhabited hillside where they had agreed to meet Ash.
Just as they were shivering in the cold wind and complaining about why Ash chose such a desolate place without even a windbreak, Ash suddenly appeared from behind and answered their questions.
"Because what's going to happen next requires an empty, deserted place like this."
Ash, who appeared here, had a face full of confidence, and he almost wanted to look people down with his nose.
In the past, he mostly obeyed the arrangements of various commanders. It was a rare opportunity for Ash to be a commander himself. Now, he was quite excited to explain to the girls the plan he made with his "amazing wisdom".
"This time, the key to your situation is this elf!" Having borrowed Tangtang from Miyuki, he explained, using his increasingly skilled technique to rub the initially resisting Tangtang until she squinted in comfort. "You need to leverage the elves' sensitivity to dark forces to find the culprit pulling Nibiru towards Earth and eliminate it!"
"At the same time, I will be responsible for pushing that asteroid away from its orbit to save the Earth. I have named this plan Operation 'Designator'!"
"But, didn't you say that the planet was very powerful?" Zhi raised the common question of everyone at this time. After all, although the power of Kamen Rider left a deep impression in their hearts, it didn't look like it could blow up a star with one punch.
With a confident arc on his lips, Ash revealed the source of his confidence in front of everyone.
“[Big Bang]!”
Yu Yayoi's eyes began to sparkle, and with an expectant look, Ash pulled the trigger of the closed gear gun at the desolate open space he had specially found.
"[Hero~Hurry]!"
Looking at the astonished expressions of the girls in front of him, Ash shook the closed gear gun in his hand with a smug look on his face, but his heart was actually bleeding.
After squandering the energy in the previous two worlds, Ash tragically discovered that the evil heart energy given to him by the princess was almost used up.
In fact, the occurrence of this kind of thing is not surprising. After all, in the last world, in order to protect the earth from being destroyed, he summoned all the robot stars in one breath, which was a great pleasure. However, no matter how generous the human princess "Ledoto" is, there is a limit to her generosity. So this time, in order to "point" this "original life form" back, Ash had to gather the remaining energy of the other gears and concentrate it on his "Gokaiger", the strongest in the space battle.
It’s a pity that the remaining cost is not enough to summon the more professional “Nine Rangers”... otherwise, a meteorite of this level would be pushed back in an instant!
"Look, this is mine—"
"This..." Hot wind blew in her face, and Akane, no longer shivering from the cold, pointed at something behind Ash. For a moment, her face froze, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Is this what you prepared?"
"It looks...so special..."
"What's wrong? It's not like I haven't driven one before. A Gokai mecha is—eh?!"
Not understanding why these people reacted as if they had seen a ghost, Ash looked back, and in an instant, even his smug expression froze on his face.
"this..."
Looking at the "Cruiser" lying in front of him in a blazing fire, with violent explosions igniting from top to bottom of the body from time to time, Ash felt dazed for a moment and his heart was chilled.
What is this like? It's like you've created something really cool, but when you want to show it to your friends, it's gone and your account has been blocked.
Could it be that—I remember, during the final battle with Zan'a, all of the Pirates' mechas were blown up and crashed... No, no! They said they were fixed when we saw them later, so what's going on? Did they blow up their mechas again? You stinking pirates, you don't even care about your dignity!
Besides, Doctor, why the hell don’t you fix it————!!!
"Is this a joke!?"
The shrill howl of a certain cold-faced man who was breaking down could be heard for a long time at this moment.
Chapter 61 Am I loved?
"Mr. Ash..."
Someone's voice came from behind.
"Is this... also part of the plan?"
"Um...."
After a moment of silence, Ash regained his composure and smiled as he began to look around.
Calm down, calm down. Calm down first and find out where is Zero? Where is the Demon King?
"Ash, what do we do now?"
"What else can we do?" Ash, his hands in his pockets, exuded an inexplicable melancholy. "All of humanity will be doomed."
"Hey, didn't you say you had a plan!?"
“If a plan can be executed 100%, it’s not called a plan, it’s called foreknowledge.”
Speaking of which, thinking of his dark sword that only revealed the ending but never the process, Ash couldn't help but sigh. If only you were a little useful, you wouldn't be completely useless...
Just when everyone was at a loss, a dazzling light suddenly appeared from under the burning sailboat.
A huge DX toy box rose out of thin air from the wreckage. The picture on the box cover was indeed a super robot that was different from the original and had a more authentic pirate style.
"Wow----!"
With four mouths opened in shock and a sparkling feeling of being moved at having seen something good, the girls looked up at the rising giant, and watched as the huge steel palm pushed open the paper box in front of them, and then the mecha god slowly walked out of it.
"This is it, this is it!" As a fan of both special effects and robots, Yayoi's excitement was not just ecstasy. She even began to make a continuous "huffing and puffing" nasal sound of extreme excitement that should not appear in her character.
Looking at the real robot that appeared in front of her, with a combination of retro and sci-fi style, and even wearing an eye patch and a pirate hat, which were too flashy for a robot, she was so excited that her saliva was about to drip from the exaggerated curve of her mouth.
"Um, Yayoi...what happened?" Even the usually calm Lihua felt a little scared of Yayoi who was trembling all over.
In short, you should be normal, we are afraid.
"This is, this is last year's Pirate Sentai Gokaiger's signature robot - Gokai King! No, it's even the one-eyed hook-claw version of Gokai King from the movie!"
Ah~ Luobote~ Your whole body is made of solid metal!
"This is the robot of the 35th team... Hey, let me see!"
"No—give—" Ash grabbed Yayoi's collar and threw her back to his team. "It's already agreed that you Pretty Cure girls will be in charge of the ground affairs, and this robot is mine!"
"It's useless even if you look at me with pitiful eyes." Unmoved by Shui Mengmeng's cute eyes, Ash grabbed the rope that dropped from the cockpit and slowly rose up.
"Goddess Luck is sitting in the passenger seat of my robot. If another woman were to sit there, she would be jealous."
"What? You're just trying to get me off with that kind of talk!"
"Alright, Yayoi-chan, let's follow the plan of that 'designator'. We have to save our world too!"
Miyuki and the others behind her were comforting the somewhat upset Yayoi, but at this moment, looking at the back of Ash in the air, Akane quietly clenched her fists.
Now I can't transform, can't fight alongside everyone, and have no idea how to lift the seal.
But, as for me like this - well, if you want proof, I'll prove it to you!
After letting Gokaioh automatically start the program to break through the atmosphere, Ash wandered around alone in this robot whose internal structure was full of artificial modification style.
At this moment, Ash was still full of doubts about this familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar "Gokai King".
Because in fact, this one-eyed Gokaioh is not the real exclusive robot of "One Piece", but an enemy machine with the same model and color as the protagonist's machine that appeared in the movie.
The memory of the battle was not cleared from Ash's mind, so he still remembered that this pirated machine that the enemy had combined with the ghost ship had been killed, so why was it summoned by him again?
"The cockpit...ah, found it!"
Pushing open the revolving door, Ash saw the five rudders inside that were used to control the machine, and two notes stuck on them.
"[The original Grand Cruiser was blown up by some jerk captain during a battle with the enemy. Rebuilding it would take time, so we stole a pirated version of the former enemy and used it as our current machine! Hey kid, don't destroy your big sister's new machine! - Your most beautiful sister Luca]"
"[The doctor left you some curry rice in the insulated box. Don't forget to eat because of your own interests. —Aim]"
Ash also found several crumpled pieces of paper next to the two notes. The original words on them were no longer legible, but Ash could still feel familiar with them.
"so."
Is this second summoning specially prepared for me?
I gently scratched the itchy Band-Aid area on my face, and the previous feeling of worry and depression caused by the embarrassment was swept away at this moment.
"Am I actually...loved?"
In fact, after that trip through the world of Build, Ash's heart had already been in an endless journey, almost completely exhausting her humanity. She had to quickly forget the countless bonds and growth of the past, until she filled in the missing parts for herself.
This "love" continues to extend as he travels. The past ties keep returning, and more and more past emotions appear before him, making him finally realize that he has really walked an incomparable journey with so many "heroes".
How could such a thing make people unhappy?
