Eternal vs. Kabuto: Who's the Real King

At that moment, Tendou had already arrived, yet no other figures were visible.

Tendou Souji frowned slightly.

"What's going on? No one else is here yet? Did something happen? Why haven't they arrived?"

As he pondered this, Tendou focused on the Cosmic Cube in his hand.

The Cube emitted a faint blue glow, dazzling and radiant like a blue gemstone.

Curious, Tendou examined the structure of the Cosmic Cube.

Playing with it in his hand, he noticed that the Cube's outer structure seemed merely protective.

Intrigued, Tendou thought, "Let's see what's inside."

He reached out to touch the surface of the Cosmic Cube.

Instantly, the Cube burst with a brilliant light.

Upon contact, Tendou immediately sensed its immense power.

A smile crept up his lips.

"So that's why everyone is fighting over it. It holds the power of space."

An idea formed in Tendou's mind.

Since he had the Cosmic Cube, why not use its power to break the dimensional barrier and return to his world?

This way, he wouldn't need to collaborate with Levi at all.

With this thought, Tendou decided to act.

He grasped the Cosmic Cube with his right hand, ready to unleash its power to return home.

At that moment, a voice echoed in his ear.

"Hey, kid, can you give me that Cosmic Cube first?

A man had appeared beside Tendou without him noticing.

The man was all black: a black leather jacket and black casual pants with dark red lines along the edges.

His messy golden hair had streaks of blue, giving him a mysterious aura.

This was Daido Katsumi.

Tendou frowned at the sight of him.

Who was this man? When did he appear? Why did he want the Space Stone?

Questions swirled in Tendou's mind, but he didn't dwell on them.

He focused on Daido Katsumi.

"Who are you?" Tendou asked.

Daido Katsumi ignored the question and said, "You don't need to know who I am. Just hand over the Space Stone."

Tendou found this amusing.

He had fought hard to take this precious item from the Dopants and S.H.I.E.L.D., and now this man wanted it with just a word.

Anyone would be annoyed, and Tendou was no exception.

He smirked slightly.

"You want it? Come and take it if you can!"

Raising his hand, the Kabuto Zecter flew to him, responding to his call.

The Zecter circled Tendou before landing in his hand.

"HENSHIN!"

With the Zecter inserted into his belt, armor formed around his body, covering him completely.

Daido Katsumi sneered, pulling out a white Gaia Memory.

"Then let me show you the power of the undead NEVER."

Tendou was curious, "Are you a Dopant too?"

Daido Katsumi scoffed, "Wrong! I am a Kamen Rider!"

A belt appeared on his waist, and he transformed with a press of the Gaia Memory.

"ETERNAL!"

"Transform!"

The Gaia Memory integrated with the belt, data swirling around Daido Katsumi, forming white armor that covered his entire body.

The environment darkened, giving a hellish vibe, as yellow pupils emitted an oppressive glow.

Blue arcs of lightning danced around his body, his black cape billowing in the wind.

His chest, left thigh, and right arm bore slots for dozens of Gaia Memories, though none were inserted.

His hands were flame-shaped but blue.

"Kamen Rider Eternal!"

Tendou felt an overwhelming pressure from him, sensing danger just by standing there.

Kamen Rider Eternal had arrived.

The wind grew violent, and Eternal's cape flapped loudly.

Eternal raised his right hand, pointing at Tendou.

"Come, enjoy the hellish fun!"

He taunted.

Despite the overwhelming pressure, Tendou did not retreat. Instead, he smirked, "Who will enjoy hell is yet to be seen. Think you can intimidate me?"

With that, Tendou charged at Kamen Rider Eternal.

He covered the distance in seconds in a flash, swinging a punch at Daido Katsumi's face.

Eternal raised his palm, effortlessly blocking the attack.

Eternal sneered, "Is that all?"

He clenched his other hand into a fist, the sound of bones cracking.

Taking a half step back, he crouched slightly, readying his punch.

"Boom!"

A massive force struck Tendou's chest, sending him flying and crashing into the ground, creating a large crater.

Eternal walked towards him, unhurried.

In the sky, several invisible drones hovered, capturing the battle.

In the Hiden Intelligence CEO's office, Levi sat on a sofa, one leg resting on the other, holding a wine glass filled with red wine.

Izu stood beside him, holding a bottle of expensive wine, ready to refill his glass.
