Kamen Rider is playing the villain in Pretty Cure

She reassembled the light fan in her hand into a four-leaf clover-shaped barrier. The barrier, which was originally as tall as an ordinary person, shrank to the size of a palm in Arisu's clasped hands. She spread her five fingers and touched the edge of the barrier. The barrier, which originally had a defensive function, began to rotate at a high speed based on the palm of her hand at her fingertips!

He raised the rotating barrier in his hand and slashed at Ash who was rolling up and down as he transformed into a sword and shield man. Ash had no time to respond and had to raise his shield to defend himself. But now the rotating barrier in Yuqi's palm turned into a handheld saw blade. The originally rounded edge of the four-leaf grass would only be sharper than a chainsaw under high-speed rotation. The dragon shield in Ash's hand, which was sawed and kept shaking, began to split in two from the center.

"What chainsaw—"

Arisu's move completely surprised Ash. Her technique was exactly the same as that of a certain Light Saw Man, but the question was, how did she learn it?! Could it be that Pretty Cure and the Giant of Light were actually related?

The dragon shield didn't hold out for long before Arisu, who transformed into a chainsaw Pretty Cure, cut it in half and sent the shield forward. Ash supported himself with his hands and raised his legs to perform a bunny-kick-hawk move from bottom to top. Seeing this, Arisu quickly dissipated the barrier in his hand, wrapped his arms around Ash's kicking foot, and sent it back the way it came.

Ash rolled on the ground several times and stood up again, holding his leg. Only then did Arisu remember that he kicked with the leg that had been injured before. The kind girl immediately felt sorry for him.

"Yeah, sorry."

"What are you doing? Don't say sorry to the enemy! There is no such thing as gentleness in battle—"

"That's enough!"

This time it was Ash's turn to be interrupted, and Arisu shouted loudly to stop Ash from continuing his verbal attack.

"Why do you deny us to this extent!"

Arisu's heartfelt voice didn't stop, and she continued to express her emotions to Ash in a way she wasn't used to.

"From the very beginning, they've always been saying those selfish and perverse things, and they're willing to force war on anyone just to achieve their goals."

"Does fighting make you so happy? Why on earth are you fighting us for?!"

Arisu wants to protect his friend, so as long as Ash doesn't correct his casual fighting style, he will inevitably face off against him.

"The reason for fighting? Such things are no longer important." Ash slapped his mask, making a crisp sound, and his slightly irritable movements revealed his mood.

"Who knows? It probably won't be for love and peace."

Ash also raised his finger and pointed at Arisu, and began to state his thoughts.

“I said from the beginning that I would do what I wanted to do according to my own interests!”

Heroes are the shining crystals among countless pebbles.

Cure Rosetta, don't you know that you who have awakened now, who are fighting for your own ideas, are one of those crystal clear and radiant crystals, constantly sparkling in my eyes. This feeling when fighting with you, this exhilarating feeling, I just want to fight with you like this!

"It's the same now, Pretty Cure. If you really want to know the reason for fighting, I'm fighting for you who shines in this very moment!"

Unlike the last great adventure, this time the girl relied entirely on her own power to summon a miracle and thus turned defeat into victory.

Ash, who had underestimated the girl at first, was filled with indescribable surprise the moment she awakened and shone with miracles, and was completely captivated by her.

Although he tried to remain calm and rational in principle, Ash was ultimately unable to escape the influence of emotionalism.

The dragon saber turned half a circle in Ash's hand, and he held the saber with his backhand and slashed at the girl. Now that the barrier had dissipated, she could no longer resist the attack like before!

Arisu's heart was in turmoil because of Ash's words, but she didn't have time to answer. Now she had to fully deal with Ash's attack!

The fist burning with golden light faced the blade of the dragon sword head-on. The shock wave generated by the collision between the two blew away everything around, including debris!

"You've asked so many questions, now it's my turn. What are you fighting for, Pretty Cure?!"

"I fight to protect the ones I love, the ones who are important to me."

Arisu's words were decisive without any hesitation, and such a legitimate reason was completely consistent with what Ash had expected.

"That's a very wise statement, but sometimes the classics are better."

Ash really hates those so-called anti-routine works, such as "Hero Disqualified".

In his opinion, it is nothing more than labeling the disgusting villains as heroes, and then labeling some people who are not so bad, or those who are pretending to be pigs and eating tigers, as so-called villains. It is a pure work of selling dog meat under the guise of sheep meat.

It's really ironic that by changing the label, it suddenly becomes a "novelty" story where the villain defeats the hero in order to save the world.

Always be steadfast and never give up no matter how desperate the situation is. Know clearly what you are doing, be just and right, and be full of warm kindness, even if this kindness is betrayed a thousand times.

This is the hero he wants to see!

"I want to protect the people who are important to me, both their lives and their hearts!"

Arisu's passionate speech brought Ash back to his senses. There was nothing he could do about it. Who made him like this?

But what the girl said next was beyond Ash's expectations, because she directly changed the topic and pointed the arrow of contradiction at Ash.

"So, I don't want to see Mr. Ash continue like this!"

Arisu looked into the eyes hidden behind the mask.

Even if we Pretty Cure challenge you every time without complaint, what about you?

You say that fighting will make you happy, but fighting is a process in which both sides will get hurt. While you enjoy the fighting, you torture yourself again and again. Don't you feel pain?

"I want to protect Mr. Ash as well!"

And I am willing to believe it, I want to see the truth that Mr. Ash is hiding!

Chapter 49: He in the past, she now

Arisu figured out one thing.

She couldn't continue to indulge him.

This man named Ash always says things that bother everyone. They may make sense, or they may make no sense at all. Maybe even the man himself can't explain it clearly.

This man is a free-spirited guy. According to everyone in Pretty Cure, he can cause trouble for everyone because he is happy, and he can also choose to help everyone because he is unhappy.

Maybe this person is the one who truly and perfectly interprets self-centeredness?

As someone who fights against a selfish organization, Arisu sometimes can't help but think so.

Not only do you want to defeat him, but if you want to change his mind, you can't always follow his wishes!

It was also through the use of fists and kicks during the fight, but actual actions never lied, and Yotsuba Arisu also vaguely sensed the truth hidden in the man's heart.

Since you claim that you like fighting, I will get the answer from you through fighting!

"You said you wanted to protect me—hahahaha!"

Ash burst into laughter when he heard Arisu's words.

Is it because of naivety or so-called gentleness?

"Hey, hey, I'm your enemy now. You're meddling too much. You're being too soft-hearted."

"I was originally a woman!"

Faced with Arisu's righteous words, Ash was speechless for a moment. Well, he really couldn't refute this.

"I believe that even enemies can become friends. All of us at Doki Doki Pretty Cure think so."

And we must do it before Mr. Ash commits something unforgivable!

If a righteous partner is kind enough, he will always do more than necessary. This is something he has already experienced.

"Yotsuba Arisu, I hope you understand."

Ash raised a finger.

"Exuding gentleness regardless of the situation is just weakness and nagging. It will become the key to your defeat, and even drag down your companions."

"Do you want to see this happen?"

Arisu shook his head.

"What? Don't you understand clearly?"

If you understand, then why do you still insist on competing with me?

"I'm not gentle to everyone regardless of the situation." He continued to stare at the eyes hidden under the mask, those eyes that didn't understand what love was. "It's because my target is Mr. Ash that I don't want to give up no matter what!"

"..."

The girl stared into her own golden pupils, as if a different kind of power was flowing.

This woman is serious.

What should I say at this time?

Ash suddenly found that he couldn't say a word at this moment.

"why?"

The cracked dragon saber in his hand dropped at some point, and Ash stood there asking the girl a question.

"Mr. Ash, do you believe in the power of love?"

This question stumped Ash. Although he had truly felt the story of saving the world with his love during his endless journey, he had never actually experienced such a thing and could not empathize with it.

"I do not know."

In the end, he could only reply like this.

"I am willing to believe Mr. Ash because I have noticed that there is love hidden in Mr. Ash's heart."

Love, who are you talking about, me?

How come I don’t know about this?

"Who knows what you're talking about?"

Arisu patted his chest with all his might, where a bright yellow heart ornament was flashing with the aura of love.

"If you don't understand, here is a warrior who awakens new powers with love!"

"That's me, Cure Rosetta!"

The reason why you can't protect anything with just your mind is that if your mind is just thinking about it and not turning it into actual action, of course you can't protect anything.

But what if the so-called intention can be transformed into actual visible and tangible power?

Love alone cannot save the world.

But if love can be transformed into power, it can save the world.

It is understandable to deny a vague possibility, but to deny a fact that has already happened is simply stupid.

It's that simple.

"Tsk, if you say something like that, why don't you prove it to me?"

"If Ash doesn't believe me, then attack me!"

This little devil!

After being repeatedly told strange things by Arisu, and unable to fight, coupled with the anger that had been accumulating, Ash finally exploded again at this moment.

Since you said so, then I will do as you wish!

Rushing to the side of Beast King Ape, Ash took out a huge golden cube structure from behind him, pulled the handle on it back to reveal the square muzzle structure.

"Yamato, lend me this!"

Aiming at Arisu, Ash pulled the trigger.

A huge ball of cubic energy shot out from the whale transformation cannon. As a king, its extremely powerful force even distorted the space along the way. Even Arisu, who is now in a strengthened state, may not be able to withstand this attack.

I want to see what kind of hidden cards you, the Pretty Cure, have said after all this!

What did Arisu do in the face of such a terrifying attack?

She did nothing. Facing the block cannon attacking her, Arisu calmly spread her hands like a cross and chose to bear the damage. She closed her eyes quietly with the expression of a martyr.

What are you doing?!

Without time to think, Ash instinctively flipped through his inventory quickly, and finally inserted the last card in the card box into the Dark Dragon Summoning Machine with invisible hand speed.

[Advent]

The newly appeared pitch-black dragon received Ash's order and charged towards Arisu, sending the girl flying. Just when it was sticking out its tongue and thought it was finally time to eat, it was immediately sent flying again by the cube cannon. Less than two seconds after it appeared, it rolled back to the mirror world with smoke all over its body.

Arisu, who was trapped in a pile of ruins by the Dark Warrior Dragon, finally couldn't hold on any longer. Endless fatigue surged from deep within his body, and the battle suit on his body was reduced to the most basic light particles in the light and dissipated.

It was hard for Ash to imagine what would happen if she took that blow in her current state.

"Pretty Cure are all idiots... Hey, Yamato—"

As soon as he turned around, he was met with a huge fist. The irresistible force instantly knocked Ash away, and he fell to the ground and lay next to Arisu.

Dazed, Ash slowly sat up from the ground, pulled out the card box to cancel the transformation, and looked at the silent red warrior he had summoned.

"Yamato, are you angry?"
