Chapter 276

Then, Taboo Dopant pursued the victory. She once again took full advantage of her ability to borrow power out of thin air. She turned around in an instant, and then immediately directed an energy light ball condensed in her palm towards the Lost Belt on Kamen Rider Skull's waist. The drive smashed away.

A series of actions flowed smoothly.

Even the airflow near the energy light ball seemed to be compressed.

"Since you can be killed once...

"You can be killed a second time!

"The combination of Skull memory and Lost drive can indeed give Kamen Rider Skull almost immortal power.

"But just destroying the Skull memory and the Lost drive...

"You are just like an ordinary human being!"

Looking at the Lost Drive getting closer and closer, Taboo Dopant's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Done!

However......

Just before Taboo's dopant's attack was about to hit Kamen Rider Skull, a series of bullets and light balls fell on her body.

Sparks flew from Taboo's doped body, causing her arms to bend subconsciously.

Her attack was delayed by a hair.

Kamen Rider Skull also reacted very quickly.

Exquisite coordination.

A moment's deviation in Taboo's dopant's attack allowed Kamen Rider Skull to instantly find an opportunity to counterattack.

Although the right arm was too late to make a move...

However, the current Kamen Rider Skull is two people in one.

Kamen Rider Skull also has a left arm.

Weird and disharmonious movements are exclusive fighting techniques that can only be performed by two Kamen Riders.

The next moment, Kamen Rider Skull's left arm engraved with lightning marks roared towards him, and his fist, which was wrapped with the power of Joker's memory and flashed with purple electricity, instantly hit Taboo's doped body.

Since then, Taboo dopant's attack has completely failed.

She flew backwards under Kamen Rider Skull's attack.

She crashed into the evil giant metal Chrysis.

boom!

The next moment.

Explosions erupted from the ball of energy in Taboo's dopant's hand.

And she was affected by the explosion and fell into an embarrassing posture.

The Taboo dopant tilts its head slightly.

The attack failed, and she gritted her teeth.

And soon, she also found the enemy that interfered with her attack.

It was Terui Ryuu and Huang Jinqing who controlled the special firearms on the Horphin-Super Crazy Dragon King's armor that attacked her.

At the same time, Kamen Rider Skull also spun and rolled in the air in a weird posture, then readjusted the balance of his body and landed there steadily.

Taboo's dopant's attack had no effect, but instead put him in an extremely embarrassing situation.

"It seems like you can't kill me a second time.

"Then, let me bring the battle to an end."

The next moment, Kamen Rider Skull slowly took out the Skull memory from the Lost drive, and then inserted it into the kill slot on his side.

Narumi Shokichi's voice came: "Shoutaro...

"Before making the final call...

"Now, it's time to count your sins.

"Just like what Mr. Huang Jin said...

"You still have [one last mistake] that you haven't corrected."

After hearing Narumi Shokichi's words, Shotarou Zuo was slightly stunned by this: "The last...mistake?"

Shotaro Zuo heard this keyword again.

However, he was still a little confused.

Kamen Rider Skull taps the kill slot on the side.

Dazzling arcs of electricity began to flash on Kamen Rider Skull's body.

Then, Narumi Shokichi spoke again: "The [most fundamental reason] that prevented you from transforming into Kamen Rider W, and the [original driving force] that forced me to transform into Kamen Rider Skull..."

“They are actually the same [error].

“Your [last mistake] is my [first mistake].

"Now, let me, who has already paid a huge price for this, help you correct this mistake."

As he spoke, the arcs on Kamen Rider Skull's body began to focus purposefully on Kamen Rider Skull's left fist.

The lightning mark that symbolized the power of Joker's memory also emitted a dazzling light.

Narumi Shokichi spoke again: "The answer is -

"We believed the partnership was going the wrong way."

Kamen Rider Skull walked towards the Taboo doped body.

Narumi Shokichi's voice came: "I blindly believe in Matsui, and I believe that the two of us will be able to continue to run the Narumi Detective Agency beautifully.

"But at the same time, blind belief caused me to completely ignore the haze in Matsui's heart, completely ignore his emotions and his inner feelings, and prevented me from forming a true tacit understanding with him.

“There’s no doubt that that’s wrong.

“I believe expectations should not be unilaterally imposed.

"I believe it should be a silent understanding.

“Hence the Spider Dopant.

“I failed Matsui.

“And your mistakes are opposite and similar, Shotaro.

"You blindly believe in Philip's wisdom and strength, and believe that even without you and only Philip, he can still protect Fengdu in his own way, and can still continue to fight.

"You blindly hope that Philip can do better, you even blindly hope that a better W will appear...

“But at the same time, blind belief will make you ignore Philip’s true thoughts deep in his heart.

"You completely forgot...

“Philip’s partner has been only you from beginning to end.

"What he looks forward to most is not a stronger W...

"It's you who has returned.

"Only Cyclone and Joker can transform into the most extreme Kamen Rider W. Only Philip and Zuo Shotaro can become the most perfect two-person Kamen Rider and the best Fengdu Detective.

"Your last mistake—

"It just failed to live up to Philip's inner expectations."

Hello everyone, I am Beer Grilled Fish.

Take a sick day.

My cold got worse and my mind was confused. I had clearly planned the plot in advance, but when I faced the screen, I couldn't think of how to say a sentence that would be smoother for a long time...

And sometimes I even forget what I wrote in this chapter as I write. I have written a few hundred words, but I still have to read it from the beginning to clarify the ideas I just wrote...

It's so tortured.

I feel like I can’t write anything today.

Make it up later.

"If you can't even read your partner's inner expectations, why should you trust him?"

Narumi Shokichi's words fell slowly.

At the same time, the heart of Zuo Shotarou trembled violently as he listened to Narumi Shokichi's words.

Scenes from the past gradually surfaced at this moment and began to flash in his mind.

The first encounter on the starting night, the first transformation of Kamen Rider W, and the Fang Ace who fought his way out of the siege amid madness and out-of-control burning...

Everything seems to originate from that sentence.

【Do you have the courage to walk with the devil? 】

After that, Narumi Detective Agency lost Narumi Shokichi, but it finally managed to continue operating with the cooperation of Zuo Shotaro and Philip.

When receiving commissions and solving cases, one is frequently in the field and is responsible for collecting intelligence, while the other is in the office visiting the Earth Library. Occasionally, he encounters adulterants, and at such times, Kamen Rider W appears... .

Later, Narumi Yashuko came to Fengdu.

Dopants appear more frequently.

In the Million Arena Incident, in order to fight against the mind-reading [Millennium Eye], Philip came up with a method that only the two Kamen Riders could achieve [without communicating but still maintaining a tacit understanding].

Philip's words remained clear.

【Shoutaro......】

[Let me ask again. 】

[Do you have the courage to temporarily separate the two detectives and the two Kamen Riders? 】

Memories of the past flow like water.

Philip's figure seemed to be before his eyes.

He gradually changed from "a demon who creates monsters" to "a partner who can be trusted with everything".

Immediately afterwards, as Narumi Shokichi's words continued to answer in Zuo Shotaro's mind, some words that had been forgotten by Zuo Shotaro also surfaced.

On the starting night, faced with the [Devil's] questions, he finally took over the special Gaia memory that was intertwined with his destiny.

【Joker! 】

He chose to go with the devil.

During the Million Arena incident, Shotaro Zuo also responded to Philip's question.

【I see. 】

[However, I have to correct you a bit. 】

[We just stopped communicating temporarily. 】

[——We are still two detectives in one, two Kamen Riders in one...]

【There is no difference between us. 】

Shotaro Zuo clenched his fists.

He's got it all.

He was the one who was clearly determined to go with Philip, who claimed to be a devil, and he was the one who promised Phillip at the critical moment that they would never be separated...

However, after being dominated by the power of Terror's memory, he actually chose to push Philip aside because he was afraid that he would not be able to continue fighting with Philip.

He even called it euphemistically [I believe Philip can exert greater power in such circumstances].
