"What's wrong?" Ethen shrugged casually, his tone relaxed.
"Did everyone forget… how terrifying we are? When weirdos run into us, it means they're in for a world of pain."
Hearing that, Ghostfreak's breathing quickened, his blood surging.
This—
this was the Ethen he knew!
"That's right!" Ghostfreak shouted excitedly.
"They're dead meat!"
Long live Ethen!
Grandpa Max looked at him with a complicated expression.
"But… avoiding trouble is usually better—"
"Which is exactly why we should wipe out the Forever Knight Organization here and now. To save the Plumber Association future trouble."
Ethen calmly played the Plumber Association card.
Grandpa Max fell silent.
Damn it.
Ethen's logic was airtight.
The RV door creaked open.
Ethen stepped out alone.
His feet hit the ground, hands in his pockets, strolling casually toward the construction site.
He walked straight in—
Smiling.
"Where the hell did this brat come from?! Get lost!"
"He's already seen us—just kill him."
"Yeah… kill him."
One by one, the samurai noticed him. Their expressions twisted as killing intent surged.
Katanas were drawn.
They advanced.
"Ah—don't kill me!"
Ethen raised his hands exaggeratedly and backed into the shadows, his face full of fear.
ROAR!!
Ghostfreak burst out of the ground!
Shadow tentacles lashed out violently—
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Several samurai were knocked flying!
"What was that?!"
"Enemy attack!!"
"Get all weapons—NOW!!"
At once—
Samurai poured out from every direction, carrying rifles, blades, launchers—like an entire mobile armory.
At the very back stood a figure wearing a golden mask, his presence oppressive.
Eternal Warrior narrowed his eyes.
"What are these two supposed to be…?"
"Too many people."
Ethen lowered his hands, tapped the Knight Watch, and smiled.
"Then it's my turn."
WHOOSH!!
Brilliant golden light exploded outward!
The air temperature spiked violently!
A blazing figure walked out of the light—
Heatblast.
But this was different.
Knight-styled armor plates were embedded across his body, and on his face was the iconic Kamen Rider 555 mask.
Flames roared like a living sun.
"Oh my god…" Ghostfreak's jaw dropped.
"He's way too cool!!"
Even the samurai froze.
No—
Everyone here had armor and masks.
So why was this guy unfairly handsome?!
[Ding! Mission issued: Criminal Organization — Forever Night Organization!]
[Mission objective: Eliminate the Forever Night Organization samurai squad.]
[Mission reward: 15 Reward Points.]
Perfect.
Fire Knight clenched his fist.
Flames erupted.
A blazing punch smashed forward—
BOOM!!
Several samurai in the front row were instantly swallowed by a sea of fire, screaming as they burned!
Weapons roared.
Laser fire.
Armor-piercing rounds.
Heavy bullets.
All poured into Fire Knight!
"Any weapon— Under the temperature of the sun… Is nothing but scrap metal."
Fire Knight chuckled.
He raised his hand.
A massive Sunfire sphere formed.
Its temperature skyrocketed—
Terrifyingly close to solar levels!
All incoming bullets melted mid-air, turning into molten slag—or evaporating outright.
No matter how the samurai fired—
They couldn't even scratch him.
"My Sunfire… Is invincible."
Fire Knight stepped forward.
The Sunfire advanced with him.
Thousands of degrees of heat scorched the ground, turning the battlefield into a furnace.
One by one—
Samurai staggered.
Their consciousness blurred.
They collapsed—
Cooked alive in seconds.
"RETREAT!!" Eternal Warrior shouted in panic.
"DO NOT APPROACH THAT MONSTER!!"
The samurai fled.
It didn't matter.
Fire Knight strolled leisurely.
Just existing was enough to kill them.
Before godlike power—
They were weaker than ants.
"I honestly doubt Vilgax could survive a single hit from me."
Fire Knight smiled faintly.
Knight Watch aliens weren't as absurdly broken as Celestial Watch ones—
But they were more than enough.
And damn—
They looked amazing.
"Ethen—no—this temperature is insane!"
Ghostfreak groaned weakly from the shadows.
"I'm about to be roasted alive!"
"Ah!" Fire Knight snapped back to reality.
"Sorry—my bad. Since you're hot… I'll cool things down."
WHOOSH!!
He flicked his palm.
The Sunfire exploded outward, engulfing the entire construction site—
Then instantly shifted.
The flames turned ghostly blue.
The temperature plummeted to absolute cold.
At first, the samurai felt strange pleasure.
Then—
Their armor froze.
Heat drained from their bodies.
One by one, they collapsed again—
This time, dying from hypothermia.
"That's insane… Heatblast can do that?!"
Ghostfreak relaxed in the freezing flames, stunned.
"No." Fire Knight replied calmly.
"Only my Fire Knight can."
Kamen Rider 555 + Fire Knight—
The God of Temperature.
From absolute zero to solar inferno.
At will.
Only Eternal Warrior remained.
He trembled violently, staring at Fire Knight in terror.
"You… you're the monster who destroyed our sub-base back then!"
"It had to be you!!"
Only power like this could do that.
Fire Knight nodded lightly.
"You're right. And that incident had a reward attached."
He leapt upward.
Hovered mid-air.
Struck a perfect flying-kick pose.
Reward—RIDER KICK!!
BOOM!!!
The air shattered with sonic booms.
The kick smashed forward—
Eternal Warrior shut his eyes in despair.
"So this is how the Forever Night Organization ends…"
The kick passed his side—
BOOM!!
Eternal Warrior's body disintegrated.
Flames swallowed the remains.
Nothing left but ashes.
"One-hit kill."
"Elegance: one hundred points."
Fire Knight landed lightly.
Turned.
Walked away without looking back.
Behind him—
The construction site was nothing but scorched ruins.
[Ding! Mission completed.]
[Reward received: 15 Reward Points.]
