[Zi——]

[“What happened to my power!?”]

[A golden “∞” totem appeared on its chest, and golden electric currents occasionally gushed out of it. But compared to the pain, Gamego was even more shocked and angry to find that he could not mobilize the elemental power contained in his body. ]

[“This feeling——Could it be that it’s in that attack!?”]

[Before he could finish his words, a roar came from the front and Gamego subconsciously raised his head to look. What he saw was a pair of huge red compound eyes that were already close at hand, and the horns that suddenly closed! ]

[“Puff!”]

[Graham’s horns tightly clamped Gamego’s legs. With its movement restricted, it fell uncontrollably onto the front of the car and was forcibly escorted away.]

【“Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Kosaka!”】

[Zaimokuza, who was driving the car that had become Triangle Graham’s favorite car, looked at Gamego lying on the front of the car. Before driving away, he looked back at the top of the building, nodded to Kousaka Kyousuke who was sticking his head out from the edge of the building, and then twisted the handlebars hard. ]

【boom–】

[The motorcycle’s pipes emit blue flames, and the motorcycle’s engine roars loudly as it speeds up again, carrying Zaimokuza and Gamego as it rushes to the end of the road.]

【『end』】

【Om—】

【Watching the two figures quickly disappear from his sight, Kousaka Kyousuke reached out his hand with a somewhat stiff movement and pressed the button above his belt, releasing his transformation with the mechanical sound of the belt.】

[The black warrior’s shell and belt around his abdomen flashed back to his original suit and windbreaker. Kousaka Kyousuke slowly took the G1 belt off his waist, and suddenly, without any warning, he half-knelt on the ground.]

[“Cough cough cough——”]

[He covered his mouth with one hand and started coughing violently, and it took a while before he stopped.]

【“…”】

[After removing his hand, Kousaka Kyosuke stared at the bright red on his right palm in silence, and wiped the blood from his lips.]

[His body fell back weakly on the rooftop floor that had been shattered beyond recognition by the battle just now. He looked at the sky above his head that had returned to its original state and spoke in a weak voice.]

[“From now on, I’ll leave it to you… Zaimokuza.”]

[Kousaka Kyosuke, who had exhausted all his strength, could no longer support himself, and just closed his eyes, lost consciousness and passed out.]

[Da Da——]

[Soft footsteps sounded on the rooftop, black high heels tapping on the rooftop tiles, and stopped beside the unconscious Kousaka Kyosuke.]

[“…Lin Duo, he really gives people unexpected surprises.”]

[Baruba, wearing a red dress, looked down at the unconscious soldier at his feet. Even though he had already passed out, his brows were tightly furrowed, without even a moment of relaxation, like a piece of solidified stone.]

[She lifted her skirt gracefully, leaned over and half-knelt in front of Kousaka Kyosuke, and stroked his eyebrows with her white palm. The twisted eyebrows loosened the moment her palm passed by, making Kousaka Kyosuke look like he was asleep.]

[“But this time, He seemed very happy…so, He asked me to give you a name.”]

[She smoothed out Kousaka Kyosuke’s messy hair with her palm, and Baruba’s eyes were as deep as the abyss. She reached out and unbuttoned Kousaka Kyosuke’s clothes, revealing his muscular chest, and then pressed her right hand on it.]

【Om—】

[“Hmm…”]

[Golden light spread from the palms she pressed on her chest, and Kousaka Kyosuke’s expression suddenly became somewhat painful, but then slowly relaxed.]

[This golden energy circulated inside Kousaka Kyousuke’s body, repairing the severe injuries he suffered after using G1 in this battle at an extremely fast speed, and even caused the hidden injuries left in his previous battles to begin to heal continuously, and his physical condition began to gradually improve. ]

[After a while, Baruba’s palm stopped glowing and gently moved away from Kousaka Kyousuke’s chest.]

[Zi——]

[But the next second after she moved away, a mysterious black totem appeared on Kousaka Kyosuke’s bronze chest skin, but then disappeared.]

[It was all so brief that I didn’t have time to see the full picture of the totem. I could only vaguely see that it seemed to be a pattern with a pair of sharp long horns.]

[“See you next time—”]

[Baruba stood up and silently looked at the sleeping Kousaka Kyosuke, his eyes especially lingered on his bare chest for a while, then turned and left without any regrets as if he had completed his mission, leaving only one sentence in the air.]

【“Daguber.”】

……

【Tokyo, Jonan University. 】

[The progress bar on the computer screen finally surpassed the 99% value at this time and reached the highest 100%. ]

【——Translation completed.】

[A line of Japanese text popped up on the screen, then disappeared the next second, showing the result of the computer translation.]

【”This is……”】

[Yukinoshita Yukino looked at this line of inscription translated from the first line of the Alpha Obelisk, her eyes gradually becoming filled with doubt.]

……

【A few hours ago.】

[“So, you plan to use the red form enhanced by golden energy in this battle, right?”]

[“Well…but I feel that if I do this, it may explode with power beyond my imagination, which may cause irreversible impact on everything around me.”]

[“Is there any way you can avoid this, Mr. Kosaka?”]

【Zaimokuza, who was bandaging himself, nodded and asked Kousaka Kyosuke who had already finished bandaging him. After hearing what he said, the other party also put his finger on his chin and looked thoughtful.】

[“Since you’ve said that, it seems that we can only do something about the location of the battle. Fortunately, here is a map of Tokyo.”]

[Kousaka Kyosuke stood up from the hospital bed, walked to a map of Tokyo hanging on the wall, and pointed at an area near the edge of the map.]

[“When the time comes, you can try to neutralize No. 30’s combat power and then transport him to this area.”]

【“This is… Banqiao District?”】

【Zaimokuza walked to his Kousaka Kyousuke and looked at the place he pointed out on the map with some surprise.】

【“Yes, it’s Banqiao District.”】

【Kousaka Kyosuke nodded and continued.】

[“Itabashi District is located in the north-west of Tokyo, close to Saitama Prefecture. It is one of the areas with the least traffic in the city. This is because this area has neither prosperous and lively commercial streets nor famous scenic spots. In addition to some relatively scattered residential and commercial land, there are the most factories in the north, many of which have been abandoned for many years but have not yet been demolished. It can be said that it is a thorough industrial park.”]

[“But it is precisely because of the small number of people that it will be easier for us police to evacuate the crowd. If we can disable No. 30 in the next battle, we can transport it to the factory area. Given the size of the factory area there, I think no matter how amazing the red form you mentioned, which is enhanced by the golden power, is, it should be able to minimize the impact on the surrounding area.”]

[“I will notify the police in advance to evacuate the Banqiao area. As for transportation, Graham should be able to do it. As for how to make No. 30 lose his combat capability… I will solve this problem.”]

[“Remember, Zaimokuza, you are our most important trump card in the upcoming battle against No. 30, so you must conserve your energy as much as possible. I will do my best to consume No. 30’s energy for you. Even if I can’t kill him, I will at least try my best to paralyze him for about half an hour.”]

[“The next thing… is up to you.”]

……

[Thank you, Mr. Kosaka, your efforts have not been in vain——]

[On a small road leading to an abandoned factory in Banqiao District, Zaimokuza drove the Triangle Graham and directly knocked away the obstacles blocking the road in front of him, and drove towards the factory without slowing down.]

[He looked at Gamego, who was struggling on the front of the motorcycle, and turned the handlebars again. The motorcycle speed increased again and drove straight towards the iron gate of the factory at the end of the road.]

[——The final blow to deal with No. 30 will be delivered by me! ]

[Sasha——]

[When the car was about ten meters away from the iron gate, Zaimokuza suddenly slammed on the left brake, and the wheels that stopped rapidly rubbed against the ground, creating a dazzling white mist and dust.]

[“Uhhhhhh!!!”]

[The potential energy of the sudden stop was transferred to Gamego, who was lying on the front of the motorcycle, and Graham’s horns loosened at the same time. Without any support, he was thrown out with a scream. His body directly blasted open the factory’s chained door and rolled a long distance on the ground before stopping.]

【”Damn it! KU, KUUGA!”】

[Gamego, covered in dust, struggled to get up, and wanted to rush to Zaimokuza with anger, but he fell to his knees after running only a few steps, and covered his chest with the still flickering “∞” totem in pain. ]

[Until this moment, the totem left by Kousaka Kyousuke’s full-strength attack was still tormenting Gamego. The energy that continuously diffused from the totem destroyed its strong body that it was proud of among its kind, and violently disrupted Gamego’s control over the elemental power in its body, thus continuously weakening it.]

[“What on earth is this! That Linduo, my power…”]

[The scooter drove into the factory and stopped with a drift. He looked at Gamego, who was lying on the ground not far away and struggling like a drowned dog, without any pity or sympathy in his heart.]

[Compared to the sins it committed, the suffering it is experiencing now can only be blamed on the interest, not even the principal.]

[Next, he will make the final judgment on this inhuman monster. ]

【“…”】

[Zaimokuza straddles the triangular Graham, his chest rises and falls vigorously, and he takes a deep breath of oxygen.]

【Zizi——】

[Golden light spread from his belt, and dazzling sparks suddenly rose from the surface of his red body in the almighty form. Then the flames rolled up from his feet and wrapped around his whole body. Finally, when they dissipated, they turned into a scarf woven with flames around his neck, swaying slightly with the wind blowing from nowhere.]

[Kuga·Almighty Form·Elemental Awakening (Fire)]

[Zaimokuza immediately activated the element awakening mode, but it was not over yet. The Yamadam Spiritual Stone on his waist did not end its transformation as it had done in the past, but instead continued to change under his will.]

[Plop——]

[A golden light as pure as if it were real slowly spreads from the belt that emits a violent buzzing sound to the whole body. Zaimokuza clenched his fists tightly, and the light completely enveloped his clenched fists in the next moment.]

[A heavy roar suddenly sounded in the factory, and then the sound began to slowly speed up, like a drummer hitting the drum at the climax of a piece of music, and the continuous sound echoed in this space.]

[But this sound is definitely not the drummer beating the drums, but rather——the sound of Zaimokuza’s heartbeat. 】

[At this moment, his heartbeat actually reverberated directly in the external space. This was a terrifying thing. Even a whale with a heart as big as a human’s couldn’t have such an outrageous heartbeat! ]

【boom–】

[There was a sudden thunderous explosion in the sky, and the clouds in the sky gradually became darker. A strong wind blew across the land, and the sand that was blown up covered everything in sight, making it almost impossible to see clearly.]

【”this–“】

[Even Gamego, who was still struggling, was attracted by what was happening suddenly. He looked at the strange scene around him in doubt and finally focused his sight on the direction of Zaimokuza, whose body was completely covered by the raging sand and only the outline of his body could be seen.]

[“Did you do this?!”]

【“——”】

[Zaimokuza ignored its questioning and felt the changes in his body with all his heart and soul. The power of the golden spiritual element had reached its limit, which brought about changes far beyond any previous changes.]

[An unprecedented power began to spread from the deepest part of his body like a burning weed in the wilderness. Zaimokuza clearly felt this power, a power that had appeared once before in the battle with No. 25, but was forcibly suppressed by him because he was afraid at that time.]

【But this time, he won’t run away anymore! 】

[A red beam of light burst out from the world before his eyes and rose towards the dark clouds above.]

[This beam of light pierced into the depths of the clouds like a spear, stirring the surrounding clouds and spinning around the beam of light.]

……

[“This… is this feeling!?”]

[In a mysterious area that no one can reach, a trembling female voice sounded in the darkness, the voice was full of fear and anxiety. ]

[“Could it be that he is now——incapable!”]

[The woman suddenly screamed, her voice echoing here with extreme fear.]

[“Stop it! Mr. Zaimokuza! This is no longer the power of Yamadam! This is, this is——the power of ‘Darkness’!”]

[“Stop it now!!!”]

[“——Hahahaha!!!!!!”]

[Her prayer was answered with a roar that echoed throughout the world.]

【That’s Zaimokuza’s voice.】

【Bear–】

[I don’t know where it came from, but the boundless red fire fell from the sky like a torrential rain and ignited this space. ]

[Under this burning flame, the female voice was like a flower on the roadside in a rainstorm, swallowed up in an instant without causing even the slightest echo.]

……

[Yukinoshita Yukino looked at the translated inscription on the computer screen in front of her and read it out word for word.]

[Her voice inexplicably became hollow at this moment, as if an ancient spirit had resurrected from the grave, reciting the myth that had happened in the beginning of that distant time through the mouth of the living.]

[“Before the world, God and His apostles had started a war. The flames burned the sky, the rainstorms flooded the earth, the mountains shook in the anger of the earth, and the three things that carried life fell apart under the anger of God. Civilization was destroyed by divine punishment. The world ushered in the first end of all things, and the world turned into silence. ”]
