Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

You said... don't you know who else can generate tomorrow's energy? Ash thought back to the blue-haired woman who had transformed herself from a Terminator back to her original form after witnessing the flower's true form that day, and he understood.

This can be done, just wake the flowers up yourself.

"Thank you."

"Ahem—?" Hearing the thanks and hearing his hand being held made Kulain, who was full of resentment in his heart, confused for a moment.

"If you tell a lie, I'll break your other arm too."

"What does the other one mean—Aaaaaaah!"

The extremely cold Ash grabbed his wrist and twisted it in the opposite direction, breaking the man's arm as he screamed in agony.

Weighing the beret on his head, Ash walked alone towards the dark world that was still expanding.

"and many more--"

He collapsed on the ground, covering his arm with his hands. With blood all over his face, Cullen was still roaring at Ash's back.

"Do you think you're the protector of this world? Do you think you can save Nonoka? Don't you think this is hilarious?" The man, his hair disheveled, looked mad. "It's impossible. All the violent energy in the world has been drawn to her, her mind twisted. If you want to save the world, you have to kill her!"

And I also saw that you are also an extremely deep darkness! The darkness that makes flowers wither and stop them from blooming!

Ash stopped in his tracks.

"But you can't do this either. When you go to Hua, she'll only show you how powerful she is. You'll only see her angry face!!"

"Are you going to say next that you have mercifully abandoned this world?"

"what?"

Ash turned around and gave him a completely mocking smile.

Now Ash no longer thinks this person is hateful, he just thinks he is ridiculous.

"Save Nonoka, save the world, I will do both."

"You say no, you won't do it, but that doesn't mean anything except that you're too timid."

Without waiting for the clown behind him to say anything ridiculous, Ash stepped into the darkness with unwavering determination.

He wanted to save a woman at this moment.

A woman he admitted to being in love with.

When the thoughts in your mind are in sync with what you want to do, the voice of the world can be heard clearly!

Now I can do anything!

"Flowers, if that is your destiny."

The V commander on his arm, which was nearly damaged, suddenly appeared brand new from the darkness.

"Then I will fight fate and win for you to see!"

His fingers rested on the crimson beret atop his head, and as he faced the shadowy, creeping creature approaching from the darkness, Ash's roar and rage towards his arm resounded through the heavens and earth.

"Time Fire!"

The red beret flying in the air ignited the spark that spread across the prairie.

Oh, world, if you are going to take away this woman's future.

Then I will take her life back from the world that wants you!

(BGM: True Red Comrade タイムファイヤーのテーマ)

flame--

The burning flames rose from Ash's wrist and instantly eroded his entire body.

Burning away his uniform, his skin, and his face, revealing the red and silver burning mask underneath, the "Time Ranger" who passed through the flames - [Time Flame], now this is his true appearance as a warrior.

To be honest, if I face the flowers with this face, my heart will calm down and I won't feel embarrassed anymore.

"Tread, tap, tap—"

Passing through the dark world and on the streets filled with violent energy, Ash ran quickly, approaching the location of Nonoka in his memory.

The surrounding environment made Ash frown slightly under the mask. To be honest, he didn't expect to see traces of human existence here.

These people who were swallowed by the darkness and considered missing by the outside world all maintained the movements they were doing before being covered and were frozen in place. When the violent energy that denied the future and felt despair of development reached a certain level of mass, time would stop and they would no longer move.

They did not die, but were fixed in place, unable to move or think. Even if they turned into the biggest and worst ultimate monsters that they feared and hated the most, Nonoka did not take anyone's life except for silently and instinctively spreading the energy range.

After all, she is a gentle girl who hopes everyone can live a good life and wants to cheer for everyone.

Now, if it weren't for the energy of tomorrow that was poured into my body when I was rescued during our first encounter, I would have been frozen in time the moment I stepped into it.

"At this time, are you still thinking about protecting me?" Playing with the warm and pleasant golden energy flowing in his palm, the man's eyes under his mask revealed traces of tenderness. "What a stupid woman..."

That's why, as a man, you can't lose!

“It’s over—”

“It’s over—”

The "DV Guardian" on his waist has been pulled out. While raising the weapon in "Vulcan Gun" mode, Ash stepped into the frozen time and ran wildly.

Then, more darkness, flowing with substance, surged towards the crimson flames, shouting, "It's over!"

There were countless Terminator monsters, and Ash recognized the one leading the group with its mouth wide open.

Ash had seen it on the official website of Cure Yell support, which was organized by a dedicated person. It was the first Terminator monster that appeared in the world eight years ago, and it was also the first enemy that Hana defeated alone.

As for the ones after that, the second, third, fourth... there were some that I recognized. Eight years is such a long time.

"You've summoned all the nightmares of the past... Hana, are you that scared?"

Several orange beams burst out from the muzzle of the gun and melted the Terminator in front of him. Hearing the shouts from behind, Ash rolled over and jumped over the falling fist. After riding on the neck of the Terminator, he pulled its hair left and right, and directed it to rush through the enemy group as if he was driving.

"It's okay, I'm coming to save you now, wait for me!"

Ash was sweating profusely.

Ash was fighting as hard as he could.

To be honest, he wasn't very confident that he could defeat Nonoka now.

Maybe this will be his final burial place.

But a man fighting to the death for a woman...sounds pretty good, doesn't it?

If you never come back, then you never come back.

Punching and kicking, smashing through a building, and hitting the Terminator with angry fists and feet, Ash experienced everything he had endured in the past eight years.

'Why I fought so hard.'

The DV Guardian in his hands roared angrily, and the radiant light penetrated the body of the Terminator and the tall building behind it, and then the light was obscured by more darkness.

'Why I pulled the trigger.'

The Guardian Sword's compressed, freezing light cut the monster in front of it into two tiny dolls, mixing them with more dust.

'Before the inhuman thing, I roared.'

Unconsciously, more darkness flowed into Ash's body, blending with the growing energy of tomorrow, making Ash more courageous.

'This is Ash.'

The red warrior stood on the dark corpse, looking at the giant tentacles rising into the sky in the distance, and stretched out his hands desperately.

'This is Time Fire.'

“Aaaaaaaaaaaa——!”

Amidst countless gigantic monsters, and in the waves that were about to drown him, Ash roared to the sky.

"boom----"

The scorching energy torrent shot past Ash's back as he dodged, instantly clearing the space around him. The Terminators fled in all directions upon hearing the energy.

What's going on? That beam almost knocked me down. So suspicious... What's that?

"V-REX?" Ash lowered his hands from covering his eyes and showed a puzzled expression to the steel behemoth in front of him.

What's going on? Did I leave it outside on purpose because I was afraid it would stop functioning in this violent energy?

"Roar--"

With a roar, the huge steel tail covered the area where Ash was like a sword falling from the sky. Ash rushed away in a panic and escaped from the earthquake-like roar behind him.

"What's wrong, v-rex, don't you recognize me?!"

The roaring steel dragon seemed to have no response to Ash's call for the V-command.

Wait, if I look closely, something's wrong. Most of its structure is made of violent energy. This V Rex is not mine! Is this... also a nightmare of flowers?

"Hua...are you so scared right now?"

Facing the giant dragon roaring at him with its metal fangs bared, Ash muttered to himself while standing in the ruins.

"Roar--"

It was the exact same roar, coming from the tall building next to the giant Tyrannosaurus Terminator. The metal Tyrannosaurus time machine smashed through the steel and concrete in its path, and knocked the Tyrannosaurus that was trying to swallow Ash flying backwards.

“You can control it.”

The voice from the commander reminded Ash that the huge silver-red Tyrannosaurus in front of him, which was staring at him, was the super AI core he had created. Even without a voice circuit installed, Ash could still understand what it meant.

“Taku——!”

With his arms spread out, Ash jumped up facing the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus that lowered its head.

As a voice-controlled structure, V-Rex has no cockpit. At this moment, Ash, who is standing at the Ranger symbol on the top of the steel dragon, and the super AI under his feet, are on guard against the Tyrannosaurus Rex that is wailing and rising up in front of them, just like V-Rex changing color.

The super robot and its super pilot, now what Ash has to do is right in front of us.

Pressing the button on the arm commander, Ash growled and gave the order.

"V-rex Attack!"

"Roar----!"

The roars of the warrior and the Tyrannosaurus overlapped and merged at this moment.

【Bonus】Case File 75 Rescue My Love!

(BGM: Wake up! ブイレックスロボ!!)

"Dong dong dong——!"

The huge footsteps conveyed an extremely shocking power, and the mixed sounds were like an awakening earthquake, roaring and approaching as if to tear the darkness thicker than the night into pieces. The huge four-fingered animal feet and the weight of 8500 tons would crush the road beneath their feet with every step, splashing dust dozens of meters high.

The running speed reached 100km/h. The giant shadow was running at a completely unreasonable speed. Its huge steel feet kept crushing the road and abandoned cars under its feet, shuttling between skyscrapers. The huge mechanical dinosaur swung its legs and ran freely between the cities of the 21st century.

The giant beast, a combination of the future and the ancient times, lowered its body and swung its two small claws. Its power was so shocking that it shattered all the glass in the surrounding buildings wherever it passed. The scattered glass fragments left traces of burning flames under the dim black light.

What a heroic scene! If someone with a steel soul still burning in their heart saw this scene, they would surely cheer like a fanatic.

"Rex laser!"

By roaring towards the V commander between his arms, the running V rex lowered his head slightly after receiving the order. Behind Ash were two laser cannons on the back of the dinosaur. Amidst the violent biting sound of metal gears, they were raised and aimed at the "fake" who had just stood up in front of him.

The extended muzzle flashed with light, and red particles accumulated in the barrel. The overflowing energy circuit dyed the inside of the barrel red. Spiral patterns like genetic coding gathered in the tube, and the heat dissipation holes on the back discharged waste heat while emitting dazzling light.

The light at the center of the muzzle became brighter and brighter, and expanded until it exploded!

The divine thunder that split everything shattered the darkness.

When it hit the Tyrannosaurus Terminator, it instantly caused a violent explosion, and the violent energy in its body that conflicted with the laser light was stirring turbulently.

The dazzling explosion light illuminated the dark world for a moment, and the Tyrannosaurus Terminator's body showed a noticeable tilt, with an outstanding effect!

But soon, more violent energy surged in and repaired the gap in front of Ash. After all, this was the opponent's home court and they did not have any advantage.

The fake V Rex... or according to Hua's memory, it should be called the Tyrannosaurus Terminator, is also fighting back against Ash with all its might, spewing out fire from its mouth that is enough to melt metal, and the fully equipped gun barrels all over its body are also lit up, spraying flames at the metal Tyrannosaurus in front of it.
