Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

So it'll be fine.

"And in front of their children, the elders are of course the most powerful!"

Aguri was speechless at the man's confident expression.

"It's more than that."

Suddenly, Baomei sped up and walked to the front. She took Ash's hand and led him all the way forward. She stopped when she was standing in the center where all the refugees could see her.

"At the same time, bring back the smiles on everyone's faces, Father!"

Well, that sounds really impressive, a line that's perfect for a hero, but...

"me?"

"If I believe it's my father's words, I can definitely do it!"

After looking at the expectant smiling face in front of him for a while, he patted the girl's head and pushed her behind him.

One more reason not to disappoint people, but maybe that's what I thought at the beginning too.

Let me think about how to start this... Oh, I got it.

"Hahahahaha——!!!"

The sudden sound of laughter that didn't sound like that of a good person scared Aguri who was standing next to him, and he almost fell to the ground.

"What, what happened? Is the monster attacking again?"

"What's going on with him? He's actually laughing at this hour?"

Whether they were frightened or in disbelief at the laughter, Ash immediately pulled these dejected people out of their own world and refocused them on himself.

"You ask me what I'm laughing at? Of course I'm laughing at the expressions on your faces right now!"

Before, Ash had heard someone always like to smile like this in front of everyone, and he was actually a handsome hipster! As someone who couldn't hold back his temper, Ash had naturally wanted to try it for a long time.

"Look at your expressions, like your parents have died. It's so ugly!"

Not only was he mocking them, but Ash was also very blunt in his words. He simply ignored their thoughts and continued to poke at the pain deep in their hearts.

"Is this what the people of the Poker Kingdom are like? They're just chased around by monsters like horses on the prairie, and then they just find a place to squat and whine about it."

"Ugly, so ugly!"

Suddenly he stood in front of everyone and started to give a speech, and then suddenly he was scolded. The survivors were stunned for a moment.

As they gradually realized what was happening, anger formed a crossroads and rose from their foreheads. Who are you? What gives you the right to accuse us from such a high position?

"Why do you say such harsh words about us?"

"That's right, facing a monster like that...what can we do?"

"So you're just going to dump all the responsibility on a little girl like this, then curl up in a corner and pray for a miracle, or just lie there like a piece of shit and whine about your despair?"

Ash responded to their arguments without mercy. No matter how many people protested, Ash, standing on a collapsed stone platform with his arms folded, delivered a practical demonstration of a real-life debate, his sharp, pointed attack hitting the nail on the head, leaving everyone speechless.

"This……"

"If you're such losers, then there's no need to be protected. Just find a place to die on your own, so that no one will worry about you holding others back!"

He raised his hands into a cage and placed them on his head, shaking his head repeatedly with a sighing tone, looking as if he was extremely disappointed with everyone.

"Wait, what are you talking about?"

Aguri, who was standing next to him, became anxious when he heard this. He thought he was going crazy again and wanted to transform immediately to stop him.

"You're saying this in front of everyone. Now's not the time for you to start a quarrel—!"

"Shh!"

At this time, Baomei, who had pressed her finger on her lips to keep silent, pulled her and explained to her with a confused look in her eyes.

"Father's purpose was not to cause internal strife, Ace Angel Senior, look at everyone now."

Now? Everyone?

Aguri, perplexed, turned back to look, only to see a group of people glaring at Ash with simmering anger. Wait a minute—Aguri, who wasn't stupid to begin with, finally understood after Homi's guidance.

"This...this is!"

Looking at these people who stood up from the ground and gradually approached Ash, Aguri found it hard to believe what he saw.

Although I once thought about motivating everyone, in reality, no matter what good words I said, they had little effect. Now...

"We—the people of the Poker Kingdom—are not the cowards you say we are!"

"That's right! If there's a chance to defeat the monster, it's worth sacrificing my life to protect our country!"

"And who are you to speak so grandly of us?"

"Everyone……!"

Because she is a Pretty Cure whose power comes from the "heart", Aguri can feel it more clearly from the hearts of these excited people.

The atmosphere of despair is actually gradually dissipating?

Although they were controlled by anger...but everyone did stand up from their previous despair and decadence.

Chapter 231: How to save the poker kingdom.

If it weren't for the extremely high moral standards of the people in the Poker Kingdom, some of the people of Hongwen would have fought against Ash long before he provoked them.

In any case, Ash used the anger that was aroused in their hearts to make them temporarily forget their original despair.

Looking at the people in front of him who were enraged by his few words and were clamoring and clamoring as if they wanted to explode with him and the selfish monster, Ash laughed even louder.

"You want to know my name? Fine, listen to me, you useless pieces of shit who aren't even cogs!"

As explained in the first volume, the people in the "Precure" world tend to be more pure than those in other worlds. That's why they are easily deceived in the story, becoming dejected and losing hope at the slightest provocation, allowing them to be exploited by the forces of darkness.

"I am the legendary king of the Kingdom of Night, who desires everything and accommodates everything—Ash!"

But because of this, they can also easily burst out and cheer up again after being slightly "motivated" by others!

"I am the King—the man named Ashfredrica!"

"Ash...Frederica?"

This was the first time Aguri heard Ash's full name. Frederica or something...it sounded like a girl's name, and it didn't match the person at all.

But it's quite cute.

"Including this time, I came here for only one thing!"

Surrounded by so many angry people, Ash, who seemed to be unaware of everything, continued to declare loudly.

"I want to embrace the Poker Kingdom, protected by the Spirit God's Heart, and the Pretty Cure who protects them!"

"Now it seems that if we really accept a country with only useless and ignorant people like this, wouldn't it be a desecration of our territory? Oh my! I better think about it carefully!"

"Who wants to be taken into your pocket?"

Naturally, these people could not agree with what he said.

"Poker Nation doesn't want to be yours! And we've worked so hard to survive, we're not losers!"

"We don't have the same power as Pretty Cure, so we have no other options except relying on her. But as long as there's a chance to help her, we'll fight!"

The voice that came from nowhere in the crowd startled everyone at first, but soon gained a more enthusiastic response. Because they all wanted to let this "arrogant" king know that they were no cowards!

"Wow~ I didn't expect you guys would be so kind."

And this is exactly what he was waiting for. Ash rubbed his chin and put on an expression as if he finally felt some interest.

"I didn't expect you guys to have some blood in you. Did I see it wrong? But I doubt you can really do that."

"Of course, we also want to do our part to protect our world!"

"This is really surprising... It seems that you really do have this intention."

As he watched the lights gradually flicker in the angry eyes of the crowd below, the fake smile on the man's face gradually merged with real joy.

"If you truly believe this...if you truly wish to regain control of your own destiny, then I do have a solution! If you possess the aspiration to evolve from trash into cogs, then follow my lead!"

"If it were me, I could bring out your true power!"

"Okay, as long as it can save our country!"

What... People in the Poker Kingdom don't draw in this style, right?

"Then believe in me, and believe in yourselves! Just watch, this battle will once again open the way to the future!"

Aguri was completely stunned at the sight of the man who had just gathered so much hatred on himself and in the blink of an eye was able to transfer the leadership of the screaming crowd to himself and lead them to fight again after their recent defeat.

Is this still the Ash that I know... What happened to you during these years that I haven't seen you?

"Because he is Ash, my father."

Only Baomei had no doubt at all and believed it from beginning to end.

"But, the battle that opens the road to the future..."

"Do not think too much."

He stepped back from the increasingly frenzied crowd and tapped the girl's head with his raised fingers, waking her up from her solitary state.

"It's just a small incident on our way forward."

"It's the same for you."

-

During those years as the King of the Kingdom of Night, he did not just sit on the throne and do nothing. He gradually cultivated a certain temperament combined with his own intelligence. After he made arrangements and gave tasks to everyone, he found Aguri again.

"You should have noticed that these aren't truly selfish monsters, right?"

"Of course!"

Hearing what he mentioned, Aguri suddenly became excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and the words that had been accumulated in his chest for a long time came out in a basket.

"Although they look the same on the outside, they're actually just some seemingly real monsters inside. The fact that they can't be purified by my ultimate power is proof of that!"

"I've also discovered the source. It's an extremely gigantic monster located near the Kingdom's palace. It's like a mother body, constantly producing these monsters. That's why we can't defeat them all!"

"I see. It's pretty much what I expected."

Ash had long suspected the origin of these troublesome monsters. First, they couldn't be on Earth, as previous searches with the help of everyone had yielded no trace. Second, if they were in the Mirror World, the Dark Dragon hadn't found any suspicious existence either. So, these "selfish monsters" could only come from one place.

"I also thought about using the power of the artifact to destroy them, but in the end, I was one step behind..."

If we have everyone's strength and gather the true power of the five Pretty Cure girls, such an enemy will not be a problem to fear at all!

"So I told you everything, Madoka."

A broad palm covered the girl's clenched fist from nowhere, and the reassuring atmosphere flowed into her heart along with the tone of voice.

"You are no longer alone now. We are here with you, right?"

"..."

After realizing what the other party was doing, Aguri, whose face gradually turned red, hurriedly shook off his hand.

"Come on, we're not that familiar with each other, are we?"

Otherwise I will become weird. I don’t want to fall for you like Mana and the others!

"Okay! Then let's get ready."

The man, not noticing the strange look on her face, withdrew his hand and announced loudly and seriously again.

"Prepare? Prepare for what?"

After drawing out the crimson longsword, Ash walked back in the direction he came from, still looking as if it was a matter of course.

"Since I just told them, we must take back what we lost."

"Then there's no reason to break your promise."
