The extraordinary chat group was in an uproar.
Funina: "Oh my god, does this plan actually require sacrificing Sougo?!"
Yae Shenzi: "No! Absolutely not!"
Wendy: "I refuse to accept this! How can this even be considered?"
Chiori: "What a joke! If Sougo dies just to defeat Swartz, what's the point? We won't be happy!"
Ningguang: "Yes, this is unacceptable. We can't allow this to happen!"
In the picture...
Sougo smiled calmly. "It's okay. I've been mentally prepared for this ever since the day I got the belt."
He paused before adding, "No, perhaps I was prepared since the day I was born."
Kadoya Tsukasa, usually composed, looked visibly moved.
"You..."
Sougo turned to him with a reassuring smile. "Before that, can I take a detour?"
The scene shifted outdoors.
The city was in chaos. People screamed as they ran in panic.
"Ahhh!"
"Run!"
"Help!"
Children cried, adults fled, and the entire street was in turmoil.
Tsukuyomi appeared, directing the people. "Everyone, this way!"
She then fired at a Dark Knight.
Meanwhile, Woz sat to the side, sighing. "Why is my mission to protect you?"
Tsukuyomi turned, confused. "What did you say?"
Woz stood up, brushing off his clothes. "Nothing."
"Galaxy!"
"Final Moment!"
"The End of the Galaxy!"
Woz launched his attack on the Dark Knights.
On another battlefield, Gates faced off against Swartz.
Swartz approached slowly, smirking. "Taking me on alone? Reckless."
Gates' eyes burned with determination. "Enough talk. Let's settle this!"
"Henshin!"
"Resurrectionist, Ganglie!"
"Emperor!"
Their battle ignited instantly, fierce and unrelenting.
The audience from across the three realms watched, their nerves on edge.
"I didn't expect Gates to face Swartz so soon!"
"Yeah, but I'm worried. Swartz is ruthless. Gates might be in danger."
Meanwhile, Tokiwa Junichiro carried a box, focused on repairing a watch.
A Dark Knight suddenly appeared, charging toward him.
Terrified, Junichiro shouted, "Stop! Don't touch this!"
Just as the Dark Knight prepared to strike—
"Be careful!"
Sougo arrived just in time, slashing through the enemy with his sword.
"Final Moment!"
"Time Shatter!"
A golden energy wave erupted from Sougo's blade, reducing the Dark Knight to ashes. Flames and smoke filled the air.
Junichiro stared, stunned. "Sougo... you're..."
Sougo deactivated his transformation, looking at his uncle apologetically. "Uncle, I'm sorry I never told you. But... I am a Kamen Rider. I've been fighting to protect everyone."
Junichiro was speechless, then finally smiled. "You truly are a king."
Sougo nodded. "Which is why I have to go. I can't just protect you—I must protect everyone."
Junichiro patted his shoulder. "Then go. I'll repair the watch. You fulfill your mission."
Sougo entered the Time Magic Machine, setting coordinates for 2068.
He arrived at the place where he first transformed.
Explosions rang out as chaos unfolded.
Tsukuyomi shouted, "Hold on a little longer!"
Gates fired at Oma Zi-O. "We have to hold the line!"
Oma Zi-O waved his hand.
BOOM!
A massive explosion engulfed the area. Gates and Tsukuyomi were sent flying.
Sougo rushed to Tsukuyomi's side. "Are you okay?"
As he helped her up, he secretly slipped a watch into her pocket.
"Who are you?" Tsukuyomi asked, confused.
Gates glared at him. "You're an ordinary person—what are you doing here?!"
Tsukuyomi urged, "Run!"
Sougo smirked. "No, you run. Leave this to me."
He pulled out his belt.
"Zi-O!"
Both Gates and Tsukuyomi gasped.
"That's..." Tsukuyomi whispered, stunned.
Gates was equally shocked. "Zi-O? How is that possible?!"
The audience erupted.
"Hahaha! Tsukuyomi and Gates are in total disbelief!"
"They're so confused. There's already an Oma Zi-O—how is there another Zi-O?!"
Sougo faced Oma Zi-O, unfazed.
Oma Zi-O chuckled. "So, my younger self has returned. Yet, I don't recall this happening."
Sougo smirked. "That's because history has changed. For you, this is the past. For me, this is the future."
Oma Zi-O remained unbothered. "Fascinating. But meaningless."
"If I don't try, how will I know?"
Sougo charged, sword drawn!
CLASH!
Oma Zi-O countered with a single punch, sending Sougo flying.
Meanwhile, Kadoya Tsukasa and his allies faced Swartz.
"Ultimate Attack Control!"
"Decade!"
"Time Blast!"
Explosions erupted as Tsukasa's attacks obliterated Dark Knights.
Swartz sneered. "Futile. This world will be destroyed, and you can't stop it."
Gates retorted, "You're wrong! We'll stop you!"
Swartz's smirk faltered.
Kazushi Kadoya stepped forward. "Tsukuyomi is the key. She will save the world."
Swartz's expression darkened. "What did you say?!"
Enraged, Swartz attacked. Gates fought back but was quickly overpowered.
Just as Swartz prepared to finish him—
Gates vanished.
"What?!" Swartz gasped.
Tsukasa smirked. "Let's end this. We're both Decade—equal in power."
Swartz scoffed. "Equal? You only have Decade's power."
He activated his time-stopping ability—but then—
He was frozen too!
"Impossible!"
A new voice laughed. "Did you forget? You gave me this power."
Steve appeared.
With a single move, he defeated Swartz.
The audience roared with laughter.
"Haha! Swartz always stops time—but now HE'S the one frozen!"
Back on Sougo's battlefield, he activated his next move.
"Level 3 Moment!"
"Power of Three!"
"Kamen Rider Zi-O! Gates! Woz!"
Gates and Woz materialized beside him.
"We're in 2068?" Woz muttered.
Gates pointed. "That's Oma Zi-O."
Sougo nodded. "We must stop him here."
The battle resumed. Sougo clashed fiercely with Oma Zi-O, proving far stronger than before.
"The King's Ultimate Slash!"
A golden beam erupted from his sword, distorting the air with heat waves.
BOOM!
Oma Zi-O staggered back, half-kneeling.
The audience gasped.
"Holy—Sougo actually made Oma Zi-O KNEEL?!"
Oma Zi-O sighed. "I never had such power at your age..."
Sougo smiled. "That's because I have something you don't—companions."
Oma Zi-O paused. "So, you'll sacrifice yourself... for them?"
Gates and Woz turned pale.
"What?!"
Then—
Sougo deactivated his transformation.
Woz and Gates were sent back to 2019, left only with questions and fear.
Back on the battlefield, Oma Zi-O smirked. "So, you didn't want them to hear this part..."
