Self-cultivation of Kamen Rider ZIO

Chapter 193 Gates' Psychological Problems

"Nice job!"

Terui Ryu's praise sounded along with the cheers of the police officers.

Gates was stunned for a moment when he listened, and his thoughts went blank for a moment.

He used to have a group of comrades who stood in front of him, laughed with him, and cheered for him, but because of Woz's betrayal, they all fell into the trap of the King of Time, and then... died up.

"Gates, are you alright?"

Gates suddenly came back to his senses, and saw Ryuu Terui walking towards him.

Gates shook his head: "I'm fine."

"That's good, see you again when we have a chance." Terui Ryu patted Gates on the shoulder, passed him, and walked towards the locomotive parked nearby.

"Ah good."

Gates finished answering subconsciously, but after seeing Ryu Terui pick up the helmet and straddle the motorcycle, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Wait!" He quickly called Ryu Terui to stop, "Mr. Terui, you should go to the hospital now!"

"Hospital?" Ryu Teru looked back at Gates, with the corner of his mouth raised once, "No, it's not a leisure time to go to the hospital. I will go to the hospital for treatment and have a rest after finishing dealing with those doped bodies."

After finishing speaking, Ryu Teru put on his helmet, started the motorcycle, waved his hand in the direction of Gates, and galloped away.

Seeing this, Gates, who was still trying to persuade him, twitched the corner of his mouth, and quickly threw the attacker's driving watch into a locomotive, and straddled it to chase after him.

After seeing this scene, the police officers who were dealing with the scene sent their sincere blessings to their Kamen Riders.

Surrounding it, including the diamond dopant, lay a dozen or so Dopant Transformers who passed out because their memory was destroyed.

The crimes they committed will not be eliminated with the destruction of Gaia's memory, and what awaits them next will be legal sanctions against them.

……

……

After turning the accelerator and trying to catch up with the galloping Ryu Terui, Gates said: "Mr. Terui, your current body really can't continue to participate in the battle!"

"What are you talking about? I can't hear you!" shouted Ryu Terui.

Gates was taken aback when he heard the words, and also shouted loudly: "I - say -! Mr. Terui! You should go to the hospital now, not continue to participate in the battle!!"

Teru Jinglong heard it clearly this time, but the answer he gave was still "refusal".

"Didn't I already answer it? Now is not the time to go to the hospital! Besides, if I read correctly, you are also injured, right? We are in the same mood now!"

Gates was silent for a moment, then replied, "Not the same."

Zhao Jinglong didn't hear clearly, so he asked, "What?"

Gates yelled hard: "It's not the same! We are not the same!!"

Boom!squeak--! !

Terui Ryuu slammed on the brakes, stopped, took off his helmet, looked forward to Gates who also held the brakes, and parked the motorcycle sideways in front of him.

"Tell me, what's the difference?"

Terui Ryu asked with a serious expression.

"Why did you become Kamen Rider, and what did you fight for?"

Gates fell silent again.

"I'm……"

He hesitated for a moment, and replied: "I became a Kamen Rider to fight against a person, and I also fought to fight against that person."

After listening to Ryu Teri, he carefully observed Gates' expression at this time, and said.

"Is it just like that? No, your words, your words, there should be other more important reasons, right? Think about it again, think about why you stood in front of us just now, why are you standing in front of us? Going to fight that diamond doped body? Meikoin Gates, what is the reason for your desire for power?"

This time, Gates was silent for a longer period of time.

Then, a look of palpable sadness and anger emerged on his face.

"To protect..."

He just uttered these four words with difficulty, and he couldn't continue.

He joined the Demon King's Rebellion to protect the innocent people who died due to the rule of the King of Demons, but he began to witness and experience more deaths with his own eyes.

In order to protect his companions, he longed for strength, but was betrayed by Woz, fell into a trap, and lost the comrades he wanted to protect.

In order to change that hopeless future, he desperately went to the palace of the king of the magic time to steal the knight's watch and became a masked knight.

But after coming to this era, he seems to be urging the young King Shi to keep approaching the road of meeting the devil Shiwang.

Not only that, but he also faintly had the idea of ​​"If it's the current Sogo Tokiwa, this would be good", and he even started dealing with Woz again without knowing it.

His dissociation is not because he likes to act alone, but because he loathes the current self more and more...

All the expressions on Gates' face fell into Ryu Terui's eyes, which made Ryu Terui frowned secretly.

The psychological problem of the junior in front of him is more serious than he imagined, which he did not expect.

However, recalling the time before and after Gates joined the battle just now, Ryu Terui heaved a sigh of relief. As long as his heart remains unchanged, perhaps all he needs is a frank dialogue with his friends.

"Don't you have two companions? This time is over, how about having a good talk with them?"

According to Jing Long said.

"I don't know your past, so I can't understand your current mood. Only you can untie the knots in your heart, but at least the heart you want to protect now, we are the same, aren't we? Don't worry, I’m called a man who can’t die no matter what!”

[Don't worry, I'm called a man who can't die no matter what! 】

After hearing this, Gates sighed deeply.

That's why I'm even more worried.

"go together."

Terui Ryu nodded with a smile.

"OK."

Put on the helmet again and start the motorcycle.

The two rode away in a hurry.

……

……

When Gates and Terui Ryu rushed to the next scene, they unexpectedly found that the fighting had ended there, and the remaining police officers were finishing up.

After seeing Ryu Terui, the police officer who was recording something came over immediately.

Ryu Terui asked, "Here, what happened?"

The police officer replied: "Just now a Kamen Rider in green armor helped to deal with those adulterers."

"Green armor...can you describe his appearance specifically?"

Terui Ryu asked, while looking around, the adulterer who passed out in a coma, and the intact Gaia memory that was confiscated, that is to say, the Kamen Rider was not defeated by the ultimate drive. bodies, but use other forces.

This made Terui Ryuu couldn't help but have a guess in his heart, and couldn't help but look at Gates, and then saw the surprised look on Gates' face.

The police officer replied: "Well, he has two catalpa-like horns on his head, holds a sickle like a praying mantis, and his legs can become as slender as a locust. By the way, he can also release lightning."

After listening, Ryu Terui looked at Gates again, and this time, he got an affirmative answer.

"It's him."

According to the description of the police, there is no doubt that the Kamen Rider who appeared here is Zi-O in the form of the OOO bug group.

But why did Sogo Tokiwa appear here?Shouldn't he be fighting the alien knight now?
While being puzzled, he remembered his previous decision on whether to protect the people in this heterogeneous history, and compared the choice of Sogo Tokiwa. For the first time, Gates began to think seriously. , is it really the same person?
