Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

Just as Kanzaki was trying to stop the other party from acting recklessly, a power many times stronger than she had imagined erupted in one go.

"Waaaaah—!!"

Hit by the aftershocks of the power, the weakened Kanzaki could no longer stand firm and was blown away.

And standing at the very center of that powerful force was Yan Ming.

Holding the hilt of the combined sword that becomes the strongest Time Limit Sword, he attaches the face of Zi-O to the blade, causing the tip of the blade to burst into a giant light sword exceeding five kilometers in photon form.

The sky and the earth were distorted and murky because of that force.

The tip of the golden blade tore open a huge, colorful clock face image in the sky.

Yan Ming raised the giant sword in his hand and swung it down in a vertical slash.

"King! Giri Giri Slash!"

The combined terrifying attacks of angels and demons intertwined in an instant.

Like a sudden stellar change, energy erupted from the very center, destroying the surface and the Earth's core.

Then—just as that future was about to unfold, Yan Ming forcibly reversed time, preventing the power from spreading out from the outer ring and allowing it to take effect continuously within its small inner area.

The outcome will now be decided.

Volume 5 of A Certain Magical Index: Chapter 157 The Timekeepers Attack Again

"Gates, look over there!"

Wozniak was pointing to the distant coastline.

The once calm coastline is now being bombarded by huge waves.

Not only that.

Even in the sky, countless deep blue things, like raindrops, would appear from time to time.

What's going on over there?

"Perhaps he is my demon king."

Wozniak noticed that the dark blue things, which looked like raindrops, disappeared after appearing in the sky for a short time.

In contrast, he felt a strong distortion of spacetime in that area.

Woz only knows one person who can create such a strong spacetime distortion.

"There must be a battle going on to cause such intense spacetime fluctuations, and..."

After deeply sensing the fluctuations in power, Woz's expression also became serious.

"An enemy that can make my Demon Lord unleash his power to this extent... is probably no ordinary foe!"

"You mean, Zi-O is in a tough battle?"

"I don't know the specifics, but at least it was an opponent that required him to go all out to deal with."

"Then what are we waiting for?"

With an anxious tone, Gates hurriedly looked towards the sky.

"Let's hurry and help him! What if he can't hold on?"

“…Gates?”

"What? Don't you usually love being that guy's lackey? Why are you slowing down at this crucial moment?!"

Woz stood there, somewhat surprised. Seeing Woz so motionless, Gates grew increasingly anxious.

"Are you... worried about my Demon King?"

Gates, who had planned to go straight there, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He seemed to pause for a second, standing there, lost in thought. After a few seconds, he slowly turned his head.

At that moment, Gates was looking at Wozniak with a complicated expression.

"When you first met my Demon King, you still harbored a lot of distrust towards him. I never imagined that you would..."

"Alright, let's talk about sentimentality after we've helped that guy."

"I understand. Then let's go together to assist my Demon King, Geiz-kun!"

"It should have been done a long time ago."

Gates nodded and started walking towards the beach with Woz.

Just then.

The moment they took their first step, their expressions turned wary.

Whoosh—!

With a sound like air being pierced, countless light bullets flew towards them.

"careful!"

After reacting in time, Gates and Wozniak immediately dodged the attacks with incredible speed.

Gates relied on his agility to dodge, while Woz used his unique abilities to fight back.

He raised his scarf, forming a protective ring that directly blocked all the light projectiles that couldn't be dodged.

"Who attacked us?!"

"You really know your stuff, you traitor."

Applause.

Then, accompanied by a burst of applause, several figures slowly emerged from the nearby shadows.

Those people were a group of soldiers dressed in black combat uniforms, their faces obscured, but instinct told Gates and Wozniak that they were not human.

The two people standing at the very back of these people were their leaders.

but--

How could that be?

Both Gates and Wozniak showed expressions of shock upon realizing the true nature of the two men.

Why are you still alive?!

Both of them were dressed in the same style of clothing as Woz, and even wore the same dark-colored capes around their necks.

There were two men.

One had blond hair, while the other appeared quite burly.

Gates stared at the blond youth with wide, wary eyes.

"Zamonas...!"

"How is that possible! You were clearly defeated by my Demon King using the power of Zi-O II. No matter what tricks you have up your sleeve, there's no way you could be resurrected..."

"It's so good that you still remember me."

Zamonas, and... standing beside him, a general, also from the Timekeepers organization.

"That guy is... Zungis, the Time Manager!"

"Woz, it's been a long time, traitor... No, this timeline doesn't know about us, so you've always been Oma Zi-O's lackey."

Just as I thought… Woz couldn’t help but think to himself.

These guys all know Woz, which means that in another timeline, the Woz there is very likely a member of the Timekeepers... just like these guys.

Now, these two guys have abandoned their original timeline and traveled thousands of miles to punish them!

"No matter which timeline you're from, since you're Oma Zi-O's lackey, we'll definitely wipe you all out!"

"Hmph... Time Managers, do you guys hate Woz that much?"

"Hahaha! What do you mean by 'hating Woz'? Aren't you that despicable guy too? It's like you're not Woz!"

Wozniacki smiled but said nothing.

But in any case, these time managers definitely didn't come to them with good intentions.

"Get to work."

Zongis and Zamonas issued the order together.

"Since we can't deal with Oma Zi-O for the time being, let's take care of you two lowly lackeys first!"

Those beings, resembling combatants, all attacked the two of them.

They held blades and thrust them repeatedly toward Gates and Woz.

Wozniak simply waved his hand dismissively.

Using the scarf around his neck, he easily bound all the combatants.

"Gates! Quick, use this opportunity to transform!"

Without further ado, Gates took out the belt and watch face.

"Transform!"

"Rider Time! Kamen Rider Geiz!"

Amidst mechanical sound effects, a dazzling red light erupted.

After transforming, Geiz, the future warrior, charged towards the enemies.

"You pieces of junk, get out of the way!"

All that's blocking my way are some small fry.

Gates took out the Time Axe in one go and used it to repel them with a series of slashes. Then he took the watch face from his waist and attached it to the weapon.

"Finish Time!"

"Geiz! Zakkuri Cutting!"

A fiery red light enveloped all the enemies.

Gates swung his axe wildly, and the light that stretched out like an electronic clock swept across the enemy, turning everything to ashes.

Then, he leaped into the air and rushed to the enemy before they could make a move.

"Drink!"

"idiot."

The person blocking his way was Zongis.

He didn't transform, but somehow, Zongis was already holding a dark green watch face in his hand.

He turned the dial of his watch around and then pressed the button instantly.

"Shin!"

Boom-!

As Gates's punch landed, dust erupted.

"what?"

This time, Gates looked at the other person in disbelief.

His arm couldn't be pulled out... Zongis easily grasped Gates' fist with just his right hand.

No...that's not right!

If you look closely, his arm has completely transformed into a monstrous, biological form.

"snort--!"

Zongis snorted and, with a sudden burst of superhuman strength, sent Gates flying.

The two then attached the driver to their waists.

"Zamonas!"

"Zonjis!"
