Chapter 6: Innocent or Guilty
Okay with Nobu finding out that the artificial Helheim fruit might have a connection to the Ximenia Research Facility things might be looking up for the Armored Riders. Also, Daisuke has gained a new power to help stop Inves after finally realizing who he is. Now comes Kouta giving Nobu the Genesis Driver to be fixed. Now comes with Melissa telling the Pro Heros hopefully things will be fine. Now let the story begin.
-
Yaoyorozu Residence
Over in the mansion Momo, Tsuyu, Melissa, Deku, Uravity, Red Riot, Pinky, Chargebolt, and Earphone Jack were seen discussing why they were called for a meeting.
Melissa: Thank you for all coming. I really need to tell you what I have found and let me say it is dire.
Momo: No problem Melissa.
Deku: Yeah, if it's important enough for you to set a meeting it must be huge.
Uravity: Also, I am curious about what it is.
Tsuyu: It must be important if you called this meeting, ribbit.
Chargebolt: So lay it on us, Melissa.
Earphone Jacks: All our ears are ready to listen.
Red Riot: Yeah, whatever it is then you know we can handle it.
Pinky: Yeah!
Everyone said energetically, which Melissa nodded and told what she had discovered.
Melissa: The other day I was in Esuha and bumped into Nobu.
When Melissa said that both Pinky and Earphone Jack got up.
Pinky: Did he yell at you?!
Earphone Jacks: If he did then he was nothing but a freaking jerk!
When both girls said that Melissa calmed them down and explained what happened.
Melissa: No, we're trying to work through things. He asked for my opinion on some information that could be considered disturbing.
When Melissa said which made everyone curious as to what this information was.
Deku: Okay, how is it disturbing?
Uravity: Yeah, is it really bad?
Melissa nodded and told the others what Nobu told her.
Melissa: After the incident at the presentation a few weeks ago, Nobu started looking into anything in reference to the development of the Quirk Fruit. What he found was that it was apparently developed by the Ximenia Scientific Research Facility that is known for its studies and experiments with agriculture.
Deku: So that is the company that is making the fruit for quirkless to gain quirks how interesting.
Deku said which everyone nodded while Melissa decided to explain more on the matter.
Melissa: The issue is, that from what Nobu could gather from when they first developed it and when they unveiled it at the presentation, there had only been a month-long testing period for the fruit. A timeframe that is entirely too short for a product intended for human consumption.
When Melissa said that everyone in the room were shocked.
Momo: What only one month!
Tsuyu: That is too short to give to the public!
Deku: That is highly irresponsible!
Uravity: People could get sick or worse die!
Red Riot: What kind of scientists are they!
Pinky: That totally messed up!
Chargebolt: Yeah!
Earphone Jack: This is horrible.
Everyone looked angry and horrified while Melissa continued to tell what she found from Nobu.
Melissa: Keep in mind Nobu said this was pure speculation on his part, but his theory is that Ximenia's intended outcome was for the subject to turn into a monster and go on a rampage. He suspects that either Ximenia itself is behind it, or a small group from within their facility's ranks are the cause for the distribution of the Quirk Fruit.
When Melissa said that everyone started to contemplate on what to do.
Deku: Okay so there might be a chance that the whole research facility is in on the whole monster thing.
Momo: Or just some of their scientists are the ones causing it. This seems troubling. We can't just raid the place we need proof.
Chargebolt: Yeah, that is going to be a problem.
Everyone starts thinking of a way on what to do with Ximenia until Melissa has an idea.
Melissa: A group of us could request a tour of the facility, then we could investigate it without jumping to conclusions.
Momo: That seems like a good idea but most of us are on duty.
Everyone sighed as if that was a problem until Froppy stood up.
Tsuyu: I could go plus I can bring Kenji along so it won't raise suspicions why a pro hero is at the place.
Melissa: I can also come and bring Nobu to help with the investigation.
Melissa said which everyone except Momo agreed.
Momo: I don't know, I don't think Kenji would like going there.
Kenji: Going where exactly?
Everyone then turned around to see Kenji who was seen wearing gym clothes.
Kenji: What exactly am I getting dragged into?
Tsuyu: Oh Melissa here is inviting us on a tour with her student Nobu to the Ximenia Scientific Research Facility, ribbit.
When Froppy says Nobu he looks at Melissa.
Kenji: So you're the Professor he mentions constantly, I'm surprised I didn't guess it was you.
Melissa: Yes, I am Nobu's professor and he talks about me?
Kenji nodded while Melissa smiled but then got back on topic.
Melissa: Anyway, I invited Tsuyu to come to join me with Nobu to look at the Ximenia Scientific Research Facility about the discovery of the Quirk Fruit.
Kenji became silent for a moment but also kept calm as if these Ximenia people are the ones involved about the Quirk Fruit then he and Nobu might have a chance to find out more and probably take down the place.
Kenji: Nobu was on about that when we were at the gym, and said something about some plant company being responsible. Honestly, that guy needs to get out more, then again I can't really judge considering I've been stuck here more or less since my dirt bike broke down.
Kenji said and then glared at Momo which made her not look him in the eyes.
Melissa: Oh I see so are you a friend of his?
Melissa asked which Kenji shook his head no.
Kenji: Friends? I don't know, Nobu and I aren't the friend type, what does he say? Associates? Yeah, we're associates.
Melissa: So are you part of the group that Nobu is talking about for a different extracurricular activity?
Melissa said while Kenji nodded.
Kenji: Yeah, he's been helping out with an assignment we were given by a rather, unique Professor.
Melissa: I see well I hope you don't mind coming along for our trip.
Kenji: I didn't really have any other plans.
Kenji then leaves the room and heads to his.
Melissa: Well it seems like we are good on the plan.
Tsuyu: Hopefully, it won't be so bad.
Momo nodded but also felt a little worried about this plan.
Helheim
On Helheim, the sounds of metal were heard and in the forest area were Zangetsu and Knuckle sparing.
Zangetsu: Come on Knuckle I can handle whatever you got!
Zangestu said as he tried to slash Knuckle which he pivoted to the left and hit Zangetsu's left side of his torso pushing him back.
Knuckle: You sure Zangetsu well okay.
Knuckle then takes off the Kurmui lockseed of his Sengoku driver.
Knuckle's Sengoku Driver: Lock off!
Knuckle then pulls out the Matsubokkuri Lockseed Kouta gave him and then presses it.
Matsubokkuri Lockseed: Matsubokkuri!
A metal pinecone then comes out of the dimensional zipper which Knuckle then plugs the Matsubokkuri Lockseed into the Sengoku Driver and then locks it in.
Knuckle's Sengoku Driver: Lock on!
Knuckle then slices the blade down on the lockseed cutting it in half.
Knuckle's Sengoku Driver: Soiya! Matsubokkuri Arms! Ichigeki in the shadow!
The pinecone drops onto Knuckle's head but as it does Knuckle's appearance changes. His armor was now black and he was now holding a pole-arm.
Kurokage: Coming out from the shadows and into the light, Kamen Rider Kurokage is ready for battle!
Kurokage said, which shocked Zangetsu as he saw Knuckle turn into another rider.
Zangetsu: How is that possible?! How can you be another Armored Rider!
Kurokage: Oh simple really the Lockseed that chose me was a mass-produced one. Kouta told me I would be able to access the other riders like me. So Zangetsu, are you ready to continue?
Kurokage said as he twirled his pole-arm and then pointed at him.
Zangetsu nodded and started to circle around Kurokage which he did the same. Both stare down each other waiting for the other to make the first move.
Zangetsu: Okay, I get Kenji getting a new lockseed but you get the ability to turn into other riders! Who else is getting a power-up!
Zangetsu said a bit angry which Kurokage could see as well as some jealousy.
Kurokage: Dude, it's not about the power, it's about the user and how you use the power and so far you're acting like a child!
Kurokage said, which made Zangetsu mad.
Zangetsu: It's not fair I am always being left behind!
Kurokage: Then train harder! Also, Kouta told me it takes time so enough of you bitching, and let's go!
Zangetsu nodded and he charged at Kurokage which he did the same. Zangetsu was the first to attack and tried to slash at Kurokage with his sword but parries the attack and then thrusts the pole-arm making Zangetsu block with the shield pushing him back.
Zangetsu then aims his sword at Kurokage and shoots him but Kurokage uses the pole-arm and spins it around, blocking the shots.
Kurokage: Nice try Zangetsu you need to do better than that!
Zangetsu: Oh I plan to!
Zangetsu then went back to the offensive and tried to overwhelm him by slashing at him. Kurokage blocked and parried the attacks which made him more frustrated but as Zangetsu was in mid-swing of his attack Kurokage used his pole-arm to jump over the attack and then land behind him and strike him from behind making him fall forward to the ground.
Kurokage: Oi, Zangetsu try to control your anger while fighting or you might get hurt.
Zangetsu got up and looked at Kurokage and was angry.
Zangetsu: Shut up!
Zangetsu then charges at Kurokage and fires at him again which he blocks with his pole-arm and while he deflects the bullets Zangetsu managed to get close to him and uses his shield to bash him, making him drop to the floor.
While on the ground Zangetsu tried to slash him but Kurokage rolled away and then got back up.
Kurokage: Chill man! We are only sparing!
Zangetsu: I am tired of being the one left behind!
Zangetsu started to swing wildly which Kurkage blocked with his pole-arm. While Zangetsu was on the assault Kurokage managed to regain his footing and push Zangetsu back. Kurokage started thrusting the pole-arm and then swung it towards Zangetsu's feet making him jump back.
Zangetsu: I am not going to lose!
Kurokage: Dude, you need to relax so I am going to end this!
Zangetsu: Bring it!
Zangetsu raised his shield and got ready for whatever Kurokage was going to throw at him.
Kurokage reaches for the sword and slices 3 times on the Sengoku Driver.
Kurokage Sengoku Driver: Matsubokkuri Sparking!
Kurokage then jumps into the air and starts spinning creating a black twister. Kurokage then charges at Zangetsu which he uses his shield to block. The attack then connects to Zangetsu's shield making him try to push back the attack and as he does he feels the force of it.
Zangetsu: I won't lose!
Zangetsu with all his might tried to stop the attack but it was futile and forced him back causing an explosion.
When the dust settled Kane was seen out of his rider form and was in pain.
Kane: Dammit!
Kane said in pain and then balled a fist.
Kane: Why can't I get stronger?!
Kane shouted in anger and covered his face with his arm to not show his sadness.
Kurokage then sees this and turns back into Daisuke and walks over to him
Daisuke: Dude, the reason you are lagging behind is that you got a fucking inferiority complex. You think having cool powers makes you powerful well news flash it doesn't I mean fuck. Kouta told me that Kurokage is not that strong yet I managed to beat your ass. So the reason you lost is that you act naive.
Daisuke said Kane removed his arm from his face which showed he had tears in his eyes.
Daisuke: Don't cry on me man. Look I know you feel like you are in a rut but the best way you can improve is to train more and fix that mentality of yours because if you don't you are going to end up dead.
Daisuke said Kane got back up and then walked away.
Daisuke: Kane, where are you going?
Daisuke asked which Kane just ignored him and walked off.
Daisuke: Kane!
Daisuke then sees him leave which makes him sigh.
Daisuke: Great, now he is just being a whiny ass.
Daisuke then heard his phone ring and then answered it.
Daisuke: Thank you for calling, this is Daisuke who is this?
Daisuke asked which he then heard a familiar voice.
Himiko: It's me Himiko, remember you called me yesterday to see if I was okay?
Daisuke smiled and chuckled.
Daisuke: Yeah, I remember how are you, Himiko?
Himiko: Great, been doing fine after the attack. Also, I wanted to thank you for getting me out of that monster attack by using yourself as bait for me to escape.
Daisuke: No problem, it was the right thing to do.
Himiko: More like the most dangerous thing but also brave. Anyway, I wanted to ask if you wanted to meet up again.
Daisuke: Sure I love to, how about at Charmant III Bakery?
Himiko: I love to see you there Daisuke~
Himiko said in a happy voice and then ended the call.
Daisuke: Well today doesn't seem like a total bummer.
Daisuke then starts walking and heads back to Kouta.
Ximenia Research Facility
After the meeting with the heroes Kenji, Tsuyu, Nobu, and Melissa were seen outside of the Ximenia Research Facility.
Nobu: We'll it appears this is the location, now we just need to figure out what goes on within the facility itself.
Melissa: Indeed, I wonder what kind of experiments they conduct inside.
Tsuyu: Hopefully, nothing too bad right? I mean you said this place researches agriculture so it might not be bad, ribbit.
Kenji: Just cause they work with agriculture, doesn't mean they're not responsible for this mess.
Everyone nodded and waited outside the gate and as they waited a woman in a lab coat with some guards opened the gate.
Ximenia Scientist: Hello, I will be your guide through Ximenia Research Facility. While going inside please refrain from wandering around and separating from the group as we tour the facility.
Ximenia Scientist which everyone nodded and the Ximenia Scientist then smiled.
Ximenia Scientist: Excellent, now let us start the tour.
Ximenia Scientist then guides the four into the building and as they do Nobu and Kenji look at each other and whisper.
Kenji: Are we looking for anything in particular?
Nobu: Anything that might give information on how they are producing the Quirk Fruit. We can formulate a plan to destroy the production at a later date.
Kenji nodded and then both he and Nobu continued walking with Meliss, Tsuyu, and the Ximenia Scientist. Once inside the scientist started talking about Ximenia Research Facility and how it all began. So far the Ximenia Scientist was founded 100 years ago before the age of Quirks. That Ximenia Scientist explained that Ximenia's goals were to find a way to produce a lot of agriculture to help many poor countries without food.
While the Ximenia Scientist talked Kenji and Nobu were looking around the building while Tsuyu and Melissa listened about the history of Ximenia.
Ximenia Scientist: Now with that little history lesson done it's time for the real start of the Ximenia Research Facility tour. Now please follow me and you will see what I mean.
The Ximenia Research then guides the four to the elevator and everyone goes inside and the Ximenia Scientist pressed a button to go down. While going down the elevator the Ximenia Scientist continued to talk.
Ximenia Scientist: Now originally Ximenia was just an agriculture facility until one of our scientists discovered the biggest breakthrough in the entire world. The biggest breakthrough that would change many lives. I give you the quirk fruit!
The Ximenia Scientist said as the door to the elevator opened to reveal an underground garden facility.
Once the four saw it Nobu and Kenji looked a bit horrified as there were no more than a hundred trees of the Quirk Fruit. While the rest was just regular vegetables and fruits.
Nobu: This might be harder than we initially predicted.
Kenji: While this is impressive and all, I have a question. How come your Quirk Fruit keeps getting into people's hands when it's obviously apparent that they're not safe.
Ximenia Scientist: Ah yes about that we were still in the development phase for the fruit and somehow a couple of people from our scientist division took the fruits without our knowledge. We are still haunted by what happened to those people and still try to fix the mistake.
Nobu: Seems rather irresponsible for you not to immediately hunt down the perpetrators and immediately eject them from the company.
Ximenia Scientist: That is the problem we don't know who. So far it could be anyone. Anyway, let us continue the tour.
The Ximenia Scientist then continues to guide the others and Nobu, Kenji, Melissa, and Tsuyu look at each other.
Melissa: So it seems like the facility has moles in it.
Tsuyu: This is not good, not even the people in the lab know who is responsible for Quirk Fruit getting into quirkless people's hands, ribbit.
Nobu: Seems rather strange they wouldn't have such an experimental product under heavy surveillance. There doesn't appear to be any cameras in this greenhouse basement.
Kenji: Something is definitely off about all this whole thing, we should stay on high alert.
Everyone nodded and continued following the scientist but little do they know they are about to be walking into a very dangerous situation.
2 hour later
After walking around the facility for two hours the Ximenia Scientist then ends the tour by showing the Quirk Fruit.
Ximenia Scientist: Now this is the last part of the tour, the one you four have all been waiting for. Ladies and Gentlemen introducing the Quirk fruit.
The Ximenia Scientist then flips a switch and shows a case holding the Quirk Fruit.
Ximenia Scientist: As you can see the fruit is still experimental and it is in its second phase so the time for the distribution for it is still far off.
Nobu: Do you have any idea what happens to the subjects that eat it? When it was revealed at the presentation, the subject let out a horrific screech, it almost sounded like they were dying.
Ximenia Scientist: No I did not know that. Again, I told you it wasn't supposed to be revealed yet and it was far from being ready to be eaten.
Ximenia Scientist said that everyone in the room looked at each other and then back at the Scientist.
Nobu: Seems your facility is in dire straits, it would be catastrophic if this went public.
Kenji: Yeah, sounds like a PR nightmare......
Ximenia Scientist: Yes, and we are looking into the matter to try to find the culprits. Now with that being said I will head out now, please follow the signs to exit the underground facility and into the elevator.
The Ximenia Scientist then leaves, making it just Nobu, Kenji, Melissa, and Tsuyu.
Melissa: So it looks like Ximenia is innocent.
Tsuyu: Indeed, all evidence seems to show that they were not involved in the distribution of the Quirk Fruit, ribbit.
Kenji: I feel like innocence is a stretch, even if they didn't distribute it, they still didn't make sure their things were under lock and key.
Nobu: Yes there is no excuse for the lack of proper safety precautions to ensure something like this wouldn't happen in the first place.
Melissa and Tsuyu nodded at Nobu's comment.
Melissa: Well it seems we got what we came for so let's head out.
Kenji: You can leave, I wanna take a look around this place. I don't know why but something feels off.
Tsuyu: Then I will stay with you to help, ribbit.
Nobu: Both of you stay safe, this place looks rather easy to get lost in.
Both Kenji and Tsuyu nodded and Nobu and Melissa then headed to the elevator and left the underground garden.
Tsuyu: Okay, let us start searching for clues.
Kenji: Yeah, let's just hope I'm just weirded out by the giant underground garden.
Tsuyu nodded and both she and Kenji went investigating the garden.
Outside of the lab, a man in a white mask was seen holding a phone.
White Mask: The operation is a go the raid will start now.
The white-masked man then pulls out the elementary Lockseed and activates it.
Elementary Lockseed: Elementary!
A dimensional zipper opens up and Elementary Inves come through it.
White Mask: Attack the facility and if you find anyone inside eliminate everyone, scientist or otherwise.
The Elementary Inves did what they were told and charged into the Facility and started attacking the lab. While that happened Nobu and Melissa were seen inside the lounge waiting for Tsuyu and Kenji.
Melissa: Wonder how their investigation is going?
Nobu: They should be holding up just fine, I doubt there is any real danger within the greenhouse.
Melissa nodded and as both of them waited they hear an alarm.
Nobu: Curse unforeseen variables.....
Melissa: What's going on?
Suddenly they hear screaming and see a guard using a gun and his quirk but as he does he gets overwhelmed by an Inves and then killed.
Melissa: Oh my god...
Melissa said horrified at what she has just seen. Nobu then grabs Melissa's hand and pulls her out of the seat and both start running.
Melissa: It's the monsters from the news.
Nobu: We must make our way to the exit.
Melissa: What about Kenji and Tsuyu?
Nobu: If I had to guess, those armored individuals will be on their way here. Additionally, Tsuyu is a professional hero, she can handle herself in a fight.
Nobu and Melissa kept running and tried to hide from the Inves.
Ximenia Underground garden facility
In the underground garden facility, Kenji and Tsuyu were looking for clues and so far found nothing.
Kenji: Looks like I was just having a weird feeling about this place, nothing seems out of the ordinary.
Tsuyu: Well at least searching around helped calm your suspicion so let's get out of here, ribbit.
Kenji then nodded and both Tsuyu and Kenji headed towards the exit and as they did they heard a stomping sound.
Tsuyu: Do you hear that?
Kenji: That can't be good......
Tsuyu and Kenji then see the elevator shaking and then ripped apart and then see Inves popping out of it.
Kenji: Definitely not good at all.....
Tsuyu then gets in front of Kenji and gets in her fighting stance.
Tsuyu: Kenji stayed behind me. I will handle these things, ribbit.
Tsuyu then sees the Inves charge at them.
Tsuyu: Here they come!
Tsuyu then jumps towards them and then kicks the Inves away and then uses her tongue to throw the other one through a wall.
Tsuyu: Kenji, we have to move, ribbit.
Kenji: No, what gave you that idea?!
Kenji and Tsuyu both start running and try to find another area to escape the Inves. While running Kenji pulled out his phone and called Nobu.
Kenji: Nobu, are you and Melissa out of the facility?!
Nobu: Negatory, we are currently hiding from the monster assault. It appears most of them have gone to the bottom level. This could be an attempt at stealing more of the Quirk Fruits!
Kenji got angry as this was supposed to be just a tour but now it's become a raid.
Kenji: Great, this place is under a full-scale siege and we can't do anything about it!
Nobu: Try and hold out until I am able to get Professor Shield to safety.
Kenji: Not like we have much of a choice!
Kenji then hangs up the phone and he continues to follow Tsuyu.
Tsuyu: I think I see an exit, ribbit?!
Tsuyu said as she saw some stairs leading up to the facility.
Kenji: We'll this is the bottom floor, hopefully, this place has less than 30 levels.
Kenji and Tsuyu take the stairs and keep running.
30 flights of stairs later
After running up 30 flights of stairs they were almost out of the facility.
Tsuyu: We are almost home-free Kenji, ribbit.
Kenji: I hate this fucking facility! Why do we have to run for our lives up hundreds of stairs?!
As they make it to the last flight of stairs they are stopped by a couple of Inves.
Tsuyu: Oh no it's those monsters again. Kenji, I will hold them off!
Kenji: Slight issue, the ones chasing us caught up.
Tsuyu then turns to see more of the Inves and then turns to Kenji.
Tsuyu: Kenji, be ready for a fight because we are in for one.
Kenji gripped the Lockseed in his pocket, what should he do? If he transformed now the secret was out, if he didn't then he and Tusyu were probably as good as dead.
Kenji: Dammit.....
The Inves then roared and then charged at them. Tsuyu sprung into action and started bouncing off the walls and attacking the Inves. Tsuyu then uses her tongue to knock some of the Inves down and then throw them to the others making them crash into each other.
Tsuyu: My word there are so many of them, ribbit.
Tsuyu continued to fight and protect Kenji while she didn't notice two Inves coming from behind and slamming her into the railing making her crash down to the floor.
Kenji: Tsuyu!!
Tsuyu: Kenji I will be okay just worry about yourself!
Tsuyu then got back up, but her legs were shaking and she seemed in rough shape. Not having her hero gear probably wasn't doing her any favors in the defense department.
Kenji: Oh screw it! If this is how it's gonna end then to hell with being secretive!
Kenji pulls out the Sengoku Driver and attaches it to his waist and then activates the Banana Lockseed.
Lockseed: Banana!
Tsuyu: Kenji what are you doing you need to run!
Kenji then turns to Tsuyu with a smile on his face.
Kenji: Just sit back and let the professional handle this!
Tsuyu then looks confused until she recognizes the Sengoku driver. Kenji plugged the Lockseed into the Sengoku Driver before locking it.
Sengoku Driver: Lock on!
Kenji kicked an Elementary Inves down the stairs before ducking under the attack of another one. Kenji grabbed the sword on the Sengoku Driver before running a hand through his hair.
Kenji: Henshin!
Kenji slices the Banana Lockseed with the sword on the Sengoku Driver as the metal banana drops down onto his head.
Sengoku Driver: Come on! Banana Arms! Knight of spe~ar!
The banana unfolded forming armor as the spear appeared in Baron's hand. Baron stabbed an Elementary Inves through the chest before tossing it over the railing. The Inves fell all the way back down to the bottom level. Baron then struck another Elementary Inves in the face with the butt of his spear. This caused the Inves to fall down the staircase, knocking over a few of its Allies along the way. Baron then turns to Tsuyu and checks if she is okay.
Baron: Can you walk?
Tsuyu nodded and Baron helped her up.
Tsuyu: Kenji, your Baron?
Baron: Look I'll answer your questions later if you don't bring this up to the others. Now I'll get you to an exit, but then I have to head back down to the bottom level. Can't let these Elementary Inves get their claws on more of those Artificial Helheim Fruit.
Tsuyu: I don't know what's going on but I am not leaving you. I told you I watch you and I am going to stick to my promise, ribbit!
Baron sighed but nodded.
Baron: Fine, but you better keep up!
Baron then scoops Tsuyu up into his arms before jumping over the railing as they fall back down to ground level. Baron lands on top of the Inves he threw down there both breaking his fall and destroying the monster.
Baron: I was not walking back down all those stairs again.
Tsuyu: Never do that again, please!
Baron: Oh relax, I wouldn't drop you!
Tsuyu: Let's just stop these things and save the people.
Baron nodded and puts Tsuyu down and they both head towards the garden and once there they see Inves attacking scientists as well as some of the Inves stealing the Artificial Helheim fruit.
Baron: Alright there's a lot of them, luckily I came prepared! Now if only Nobu would hurry up and get his ass down here to help!
Tsuyu: Wait Nobu is one of the Armor Individuals, ribbit?
Baron: Yeah, let's just say for the time being that extracurricular activity we've been doing is this. The guy who gave us this mission isn't a Professor either. I promise to take you to see him so you can get an understanding of everything, but first.....
Baron quickly switches the Banana Lockseed with the Kiwi Lockseed before slicing it in half.
Sengoku Driver: Come on! Kiwi Arms! Geki! Rin! Sei-ya ha!
The Kiwi dropped down onto Baron's head as it unfolded into armor and his disc weapons appeared in his hands.
Baron: How good are you at catching things with your tongue?
Tsuyu didn't need to answer Baron's question as one of the Inves tried to jump her while she used her tongue and threw it at the other Inves making them fall down.
Tsuyu: That answers your question, ribbit?
Baron then threw both his disc weapons as they cut through the Elementary Inves, destroying them as they went. Tsuyu jumped onto a wall before using her tongue to grab one of the discs as it started returning to Baron. Tsuyu then redirected it causing it to destroy more Elementary Inves before doing the same with the other one. Baron then front flipped over an Elementary Inves before kicking it in the back.
Baron: At least there aren't any Advanced Inves around here.
Tsuyu: You sure know how to fight Kenji.
Baron: I'm just getting warmed up!
Baron then replaces the Kiwi Lockseed with the Mango Lockseed. Baron slices the Lockseed with the sword on the Sengoku Driver.
Sengoku Driver: Come on! Mango Arms! Fight of ham~mer!
The mango dropped down onto Baron's head before unfolding into armor as his mace weapon appeared in his hand. Baron caught the claw of an Elementary Inves with his free hand before tossing it into the air. Baron then used his mace to bat the Inves away while simultaneously destroying three other Elementary Inves.
Baron: Alright I think we're almost in the clear!
Tsuyu: Nice work Kenji but more are coming!
Tsuyu and Baron looked at the Inves coming their way and as they got closer they saw them get stabbed and explode. Once the dust settled they saw Duke coming out of it.
Duke: It appears that you have things handled rather well here Baron, need I intervene?
Baron: Would you shut it already four eyes? We got bigger issues!
Tsuyu: Nobu, is that you?
When Tsuyu said Duke's name he turned to Baron.
Duke: Baron, what on earth and Helheim have you done?
Baron: Look, we were surrounded by Inves on the staircase, I had no choice. It was either that or we both died.
Duke then sighs as he couldn't argue with that logic.
Duke: I suppose your hand was forced, very well I'm sure you could stay on Helheim now that our secret is out. The other two don't have anything to worry about in that regard.
Tsuyu: Look we can discuss things later so far those monster-
Duke: Inves, these ones are Elementary Inves, do not worry an innocent person did not consume any fruit to become these. I suppose if you're willing to keep our secret we could tell you everything else.
Tsuyu: Thank you Nobu now let's end this, ribbit!
Duke and Baron nodded as Baron grabbed the sword on the Sengoku Driver before performing two slices.
Kenji's Sengoku Driver: Mango Au Lait!!
Baron spun around in a circle before swinging his mace that caused a mango made out of energy to get sent flying into a group of Elementary Inves, causing them to explode. Duke then grabbed the sword on his Sengoku Driver before performing 3 slices.
Nobu's Sengoku Driver: Lemon Sparking!!!
A large circular lemon slice made of energy appears in front of Duke as he performs multiple rapid thrust attacks that get multiplied on the other side, destroying another group of Elementary Inves.
All the Inves were destroyed and the fight was over.
Baron: Thank god that's over, any longer and this place probably wouldn't have any produce left.
Duke: It appears the Artificial Helheim Fruits were damaged in the process, the Inves were probably not the most gentle when transporting them. Our assault certainly didn't help that matter.
Tsuyu: I agree though we need to leave. If the police or any of the other heroes sees you they probably blame you for this, ribbit.
Baron: Luckily four eyes developed a way for us to get out of any situation.
Duke: Yes, I do need to make copies of this Lockseed eventually.
Duke then pulls out the gate lockseed and activates it.
Gate Lockseed: Gate!
A dimensional zipper opens up and appears before Baron, Duke, and Tsuyu.
Tsuyu: Where does this lead us?
Baron: The planet Helheim, that's where we got our powers and the mission to protect earth....
Duke: It is time for you to meet the man that has guided us down this path.
Tsuyu then nodded and all of them walked through the portal to Helheim and left the facility.
END
KLigers98: Okay, going to point out that things could have gotten a lot worse but so far it is okay. Now I like to point out the small elephant of the room. Kane is acting like a certain individual that we shall not name but his actions are showing. I fear that Kane might do something stupid that would lead him to be kicked out. I mean he tried to harm Daisuke because he gained a new power. Now with Tsuyu, I hope she doesn't squeal on them because the last thing the Armored Riders need is to go to jail!
Tojamaru: It appears that Tsuyu could be a potential ally to the group if she can understand the full extent of the situation. Tsuyu seemed reasonable so far, we can only hope it continues that way. As far as Kane goes if he causes issues I hope the others do the right thing and revoke his powers. With the entire world hanging in the balance, there is no room for those who are self-centered in their way of thinking.
KLigers98: Agreed my friend there is no room for infighting when the world is at stake. With that being said thanks for reading My Hero Vigilantes: Return of the armored riders. Like, comment, and follow for more updates. Ligers signing off.
Tojamaru: Until our paths cross again everyone!
