Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

Woz looked slightly surprised. Although the book in his hand could indeed update the stories and history of the new knights on its own, he himself was unsure about the timing of the records.

However, the situation Yan Ming is describing is almost as if the book itself suddenly revealed new content just when he wanted to see it…

"Never mind all that for now, the problem should be this guy, right?"

"Ah... The book describes it as a slug-type demon, an enemy in the newly born Kamen Rider world... Its shell is incredibly hard, and it would be difficult to break through if we tried to fight it head-on."

"Hmph, there's nothing to be afraid of. I think it's time for us to get serious, isn't it?"

This thing was clearly summoned by Teed, which means that from now on... the battle will no longer be comparable to the warm-up exercises we just did.

"Woz, Gates."

Yan Ming looked up at the huge, monstrous demon and immediately gave orders to the two of them.

"Smash it."

"I understand... Well then, as you wish."

And then, in that very next moment...

Like the arrival of a black hole, an overwhelming gravity struck directly onto the final boss's demonic follower.

Volume Nine: The Demon King Appears: Chapter 431 The Birth of the Final Nightmare

boom--!!

That's a direct connection to a gravitational field at the level of a black hole.

Woz, who had transformed into his Galaxy Finale form at some unknown time, manipulated gravity and slowly flew into the air, thus directly controlling the endless gravity.

The final boss, which was over 100 meters long and almost indistinguishable from a fortress, suddenly stopped moving in mid-air.

Then, its enormous body crashed down onto the street below.

Its massive body plummeted at high speed... If it were to land on the ground like that, the entire neighborhood would surely be crushed.

Therefore, Wozniak wouldn't let it just crash down like that.

His right palm was facing down, controlling the downward pressure of gravity, while his free left hand slowly turned around, turning the palm upward.

The two palms were pressed together.

The repulsive and attractive forces were forcibly merged in an instant.

Om-! ! !

That was a dazzling light comparable to the explosion of a white dwarf.

The combined energy burst forth at a high concentration, rising into the air along with Woz's movements while completely restricting all the fortress monster's actions.

"Gates, it's up to you now."

The other side is also ready.

Orange-black light shot up from the ground... something was hurtling towards the monster head-on.

Those were warriors as formidable as a fortress.

"Time Burst!"

He concentrated all his strength in his right leg and, with a flying kick, plunged directly into the monster's mouth.

Then.

— Orange light, like shooting stars, exploded endlessly within the monster's body.

Countless flames even shattered the black sky and the endless rain.

Tens of thousands of explosions and bursts of light, mixed with flames, spewed from the gaps in the fortress monster's body.

Gates kicked out a hole from its tailbone and returned to the ground unharmed.

"Will there be no problem then?"

Even though it can defend against all external impacts, it remains extremely vulnerable internally.

Gates stood on the ground, gazing listlessly at the shattered fortress monster in the air, feeling utterly bored.

"It's no use. You should know very well that even if we've never seen this kind of guy before, his strength alone can't stop us at all."

"A small fry is a small fry; no matter how many there are, it's useless."

They can continue fighting. They haven't expended much energy since the start of the battle, and Yan Ming is still there.

Thinking this way, Gates became increasingly certain that he would be able to completely defeat that guy Ted today—

"Hmph... Hahahaha!"

Then, laughter suddenly came from the air.

Without a doubt, it was Tide's voice.

"I'm so sorry, I lost my temper... I thought you guys would at least have some brains, but it seems the only ones who can think are your masters..."

"What…?"

Bang--!!

Amidst a fierce commotion, another figure fell directly from the sky.

It's Yan Ming.

The person who knocked him directly to the ground wasn't Teed... that's right, to be precise, it wasn't a person at all.

"The time you've gained by focusing your energy on strange people you've never seen before is already enough."

Delay...time?

Still unable to grasp the situation, Gates quickly looked up at the sky... and then he realized something.

After countless strange people appeared, they stopped paying attention to the initial threat.

Those threats known as the God Train and the Ghost Train…

Now, they have fully regained the ability to move freely.

boom!!

With a sound like shattering glass, something unseen in the sky seemed to be violently torn apart.

"The train is moving again... Damn it! Is this what that bastard wanted?"

They deliberately released countless strange beings to divert their attention, and then bought time for the time-space trains to break free of their restraints.

Now, all the trains, which are scattered all over the world and number in enormous numbers, have been restored to operational status.

"Come on... show us your true worth!"

As Tede raised his hands, terrifying fluctuations emanated from the sky and the earth.

wrong--

That was not a simple physical vibration.

"It's spacetime... that's being destroyed."

In outer space, in the sky above Earth, wherever it may be, the beings known as the God Train have begun their deeds.

Tearing apart the space and time of this world.

The enormous, sharp teeth at the front of those trains seemed to be crushing ice shards, swallowing up all of unseen space and time.

The shattered spacetime instantly created a fault-like zone.

Meanwhile, all the ghost trains that were waiting to go went into those gaps.

"Could it be that the purpose of those things is not simply to destroy spacetime and reverse life and death?!"

“That’s right. Your master had already realized this, so he froze their time from the very beginning. Unfortunately, it seems that this was already his limit.”

Even the king of time and space, with only the power of the second-stage Time King, cannot stop the chaotic phenomenon of destroying all time and space.

"Think about it carefully. There are countless parallel worlds around this world... So destroying spacetime is like creating a huge hole between different worlds."

"All the ghost trains under my command will enter other dimensions and fulfill their intended functions..."

The answer is to resurrect the dead.

But what's the point of simply resurrecting the dead?

"...That guy's goal wasn't to resurrect the dead."

Having seen through everything, Yan Ming made a final addition.

"It involves using the God Train to open up pathways to countless parallel worlds, and then using the Ghost Train to resurrect the witches who died in those parallel worlds."

"Finally, through the spacetime gaps between these worlds, bring all the resurrected witches...to this world."

has already started.

All sorts of strange and distorted lights kept emerging from the pitch-black sky. As those lights fell on the earth, countless new life forms also descended into this world.

In just a moment.

Cracks began to appear on the ground in cities, wastelands, plains, and oceans all over the earth, and all sorts of exaggerated evil beings sprang out from them.

She's a witch.

Far exceeding any number of witches ever seen before... If viewed from a distance, one could even see that the planet's color has changed.

It changed from blue and white to black and purple, representing a witch.

Boom—!!

In Mitakihara City alone, thousands, tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of witches of varying sizes appeared all at once, surrounding the streets and buildings, flying in from the horizon.

Even the apocalyptic stage, which originally existed only in nightmares, has begun to spin and return to this world...

Whoosh—! A fierce wind whipped up the buildings, turning them into a nightmare that swallowed the world.

Among the many witches, there was one particularly strange and abstract incarnation, which, like a rotating stage, sobbed endlessly high in the sky.

"Witch's Night..."

The beings that Yan Ming once destroyed have now been resurrected... no, the witches he destroyed back then can no longer be resurrected.

This is probably a witch's night from another world.

If the number of parallel worlds is infinite, then there must be more than one Witch's Night, which means...

In every corner of the earth, there may be multiple Witch Nights, and what appears before them is only... one of them.

In an instant, the social structure of the world almost completely collapsed. Countries, cities, people... everything was destroyed. Even though people were still alive, the social structure of the world had collapsed.

Humanity could no longer conceal its malice and fear of the apocalypse or witches. People all over the world began to act like madmen, and some even waited to die on the spot, doing absurd things like religious believers.

"What... are you kidding me!"

In this way, it has nothing to do with whether or not one can simply win the fight.

Because the phenomenon of spacetime chaos involves an infinite number of parallel universes, even if Yan Ming uses the second-stage time-manipulation ability of Zi-O, it will only make the situation worse... and may even cause all the worlds to explode on the spot.

Yan Ming and Wozniak both seemed to be silent, lost in thought. The only one who could be seen to be facing his thoughts directly was Gates.

Right now, he was looking at Teed with the angrier look he had ever given him.

"You have a good eye, but you should learn from the two people next to you. Getting angry won't help at a time like this."

"You bastard...you bastard! From the very beginning...you were after this...?"

"Fool, don't you understand?"

Even now, with witches covering the entire globe and numerous Witch Nights, Yan Ming and his group could still handle it if they wanted to; their combined strength was still insufficient to completely overwhelm them all.

Teed's goal was not to overwhelm them with an almost endless number of witches.

"All of this was just preparation. Yes... right now is the real goal I need to achieve."

In that instant, it was as if in response to what Teed had said.

Something erupted at the far end of the city.

"What…?"

The group quickly turned their heads to look, and in that instant, the Earth began to shake violently—

boom--!!!
