Chapter 40 - Zodiac Twelve Palaces, scorpio

"This Unicorn Zodiarts still has some strength. This sword technique isn't strong, but it's enough to deal with people who don't know how to fight. The user should be someone from the Kendo club; otherwise, he couldn't use the sword so skillfully. And this is Kisaragi Gentaro's first Henshin into Kamen Rider, right? Without any practice, he can fight back and forth with the Unicorn Zodiarts who possesses sword skills. For a moment, it's hard to tell who will win."

Shiraishi Shin analyzed the current situation after a few glances. He wondered if it was because Kisaragi Gentaro was fighting a Monster for the first time that he had a 'newbie protection period'?

Otherwise, with the Unicorn Zodiarts's sword skills, he shouldn't be so passive.

"Which class's teacher is that?"

Standing behind a tree, Shiraishi Shin was not only watching Kisaragi Gentaro's battle but also spotted a female teacher observing from the shadows.

He looked closely and saw the female teacher wearing a white teacher's uniform, staring expressionlessly at the battle of Kamen Rider Fourze.

"Sonoda Sarina?"

Shiraishi Shin recognized her as a homeroom teacher for the second year. She was sweet and beautiful, with popularity no less than Okada Yuriko.

"Why do I feel an uneasy gaze?"

Standing in the shadows, Sonoda Sarina's brow furrowed. Her senses were somewhat sharp. Just now, she seemed to feel someone watching her, which made her alert, and she quickly checked her surroundings.

Her gaze swept over the tree where Shiraishi Shin had just been standing, but besides herself and Utahoshi Kengo, Jojima Yuuki, and a boy on that field, there were no other outsiders.

"Could I be being too sensitive?"

Sonoda Sarina composed herself and looked back at Kamen Rider Fourze. Her heart was cold. The Chairman had asked her and the Principal to use students for experiments in the academy to evolve ordinary constellations into the Zodiarts as quickly as possible. However, now that a Kamen Rider was interfering, it seemed she would have to take action herself.

Thinking this, Sonoda Sarina held a red item in her hand, similar to an ordinary Zodiarts Switch but much more luxurious. It was precisely a Horoscopes Switch, and she finally pressed it with her thumb.

Shrouded in a burst of black mist and starlight, Sonoda Sarina transformed into a Monster wearing a black and gold form-fitting cloak. Her head resembled a scorpion. She was one of the Zodiac Twelve Palaces, scorpio.

Behind the tree, Shiraishi Shin leaned out again to look. "This female teacher's alertness is quite good, actually being able to feel my gaze. scorpio, one of the Zodiarts? It looks like Kamen Rider Fourze is in trouble."

At this time, Kisaragi Gentaro was in the heat of battle with the Unicorn Zodiarts. He used the rocket propulsion function equipped on his right hand to not only increase his speed but also amplify his punching power, and it could even be used as a shield for defense. It was truly versatile.

[Drill!]

Kisaragi Gentaro used the rocket impact on his right hand to knock the Unicorn Zodiarts back several meters. Then, he took out an astronomical switch and equipped it onto the driver, turning it on. Suddenly, a drill module appeared on his left foot.

The four switches on the driver correspond to the hands and feet. By equipping an astronomical switch on the corresponding switch, such a combat item will appear on that hand or foot.

"Hah!"

Seeing the Unicorn Zodiarts come forward to fence, Kisaragi Gentaro used the propulsion function of the rocket on his right arm to soar twenty meters high. Then, he dived down toward the Unicorn Zodiarts on the ground, the drill on his left foot rotating at high speed as he executed a Rider Kick.

"Yaahhh!!"

Jojima Yuuki watched the descending Kisaragi Gentaro excitedly and shouted, "Gen-chan, ganbatte!"

"Go for it, Kisaragi Gentaro!"

Utahoshi Kengo also stared intently; they were finally about to take their first victory.

However, at that moment, a long, retractable scorpion tail pierced directly into the rapidly falling Kisaragi Gentaro, erupting in a shower of sparks. It not only dealt significant damage but also interrupted his finishing move, causing him to fall to the ground from the final five meters.

"Ugh!"

Kisaragi Gentaro lay on the ground, making painful sounds, and Jojima Yuuki immediately ran over.

"Who is it!"

Utahoshi Kengo turned back in alarm. They were clearly about to defeat the Unicorn Zodiarts, but he hadn't expected such a turn of events.

A Monster wrapped in a black and gold cloak approached. In Utahoshi Kengo's eyes, this newly appeared Monster was completely different from the Unicorn Zodiarts—the difference being the aura and sense of pressure.

"scorpio!"

The Unicorn Zodiarts stepped forward and called out the newcomer's constellation name.

"What, scorpio of the Zodiac Twelve Palaces!"

Utahoshi Kengo was shocked. No wonder he felt this person was different from the Unicorn Zodiarts; it turned out to be an executive-level constellation, different from an ordinary constellation.

There are many ordinary constellations, but the most famous are the Zodiac Twelve Palaces.

"Damn it, a sneak attack! What kind of hero are you? If you have the guts, face me head-on!"

Kisaragi Gentaro stood up, looking at scorpio with an unfriendly expression. To resort to a sneak attack, what a despicable fellow.

Seeing Kisaragi Gentaro still shouting, Utahoshi Kengo stepped forward to warn him: "Be careful, Kisaragi! This guy is the executive, scorpio!"

"What, scorpio!"

Jojima Yuuki was startled. It was common knowledge that executive constellations were definitely different from ordinary ones, and now it was two against one; they certainly had no advantage.

scorpio mocked, "Humph, a head-on confrontation? How naive. Do you think everyone is a hothead like you? Unicorn Zodiarts, aren't you going to take your revenge yet?"

"Yes!"

The Unicorn Zodiarts turned his head. JK, who thought he was hidden well, was discovered, which made him feel cold from head to toe. Seeing a Kamen Rider stand up for him, he hadn't run away but followed the instant scene-change technique from the school building to this open space.

Who could have expected such an accident? So, the moment he made eye contact with the Unicorn Zodiarts, he screamed and fled.

"That guy actually followed us here?"

Hearing the voice, Utahoshi Kengo saw the back of the fleeing JK. From this guy's usual reputation, he had a premonition that his motive for following them here just now was likely impure.

"You can't get away!"

The Unicorn Zodiarts shouted and chased after him.

"Don't go."

Kisaragi Gentaro hurriedly stepped forward to try and stop him, but scorpio stepped up quickly and kicked out. Kisaragi Gentaro hurriedly halted his movement so the attack wouldn't land on him.

"Your opponent is me."

scorpio turned to face him.

"Damn it!"

Kisaragi Gentaro clenched his fists. This was trouble. If he was blocked, the Unicorn Zodiarts would go and harm others.

"Ugh!"

Just as Kisaragi Gentaro was feeling conflicted, a cry of pain was heard. Then, everyone saw the Unicorn Zodiarts, who had just chased after the boy, flying backward from a distance and landing at scorpio's feet.

"What happened?"

Not only was Kisaragi Gentaro confused, but Utahoshi Kengo and the other, as well as scorpio, all looked in the direction from which the Unicorn Zodiarts had come flying.

They saw a Kamen Rider with pure white armor, blue flame patterns on both arms, a black jacket tied around his body, golden compound eyes, and a black cloak on his back, slowly approaching with a straight-line catwalk.
