In the command room of the mothership, on the conference table, Menyashi sat with his legs propped up, casually fiddling with his camera.
Zed, whose nose and face were swollen and bruised, sat off to the side as if nothing had happened. With an Amazon's healing abilities, he'd look fine again in a few minutes anyway. If they wanted to laugh, let them laugh.
Nick Fury ignored the two troublemakers. He pulled out a set of Captain America trading cards stained with blood and placed them on the table."Coulson… he's gone. He'll never get the chance to ask you for that signature."
Steve picked up one of the cards soaked with Coulson's blood—a card printed with his own portrait—and fell silent.Tony and Natasha's expressions also turned grim; after all, Coulson was the good guy everyone cared about.
Dr. Banner, still dizzy, didn't know what to say to comfort them. All he could do was apologize—for himself, and for the Hulk.
"I… I… I'm sorry. I lost control."
Fortunately, Menyashi had knocked out the Hulk in three seconds flat, and the Hulk had no idea what even happened—so fear wasn't an issue.
Seeing the Avengers suppressing their rage, Fury knew his goal was achieved. He turned to Zed and spoke:
"Zed Oleg! I remember you said you treat Earth like your own backyard. Now, according to Thor, Loki is about to open a wormhole and summon his alien army. You have no reaction to that?"
The moment Fury finished speaking, everyone turned their eyes toward Zed—making him extremely uncomfortable.
"Zed, tell me! Use that future-prediction superpower of yours and tell me—where's Loki?"Tony sat down beside him, staring straight into his eyes, unusually serious.
Zed's facial injuries had mostly healed. He cleared his throat and said:
"At your place."
"What? What do you mean my place?" Tony blinked, confused.
"To open a wormhole, you need a massive energy source. Ahem—you get it?" Zed tapped the table.
"Oh! Shit!"
Tony shot to his feet, ready to rush back to Stark Tower immediately.But Steve stood up and moved in front of him.
"You're trying to stop me?" Tony's tone grew even more dangerous.
Steve suddenly stepped aside and said:
"I'm saying slow down—wait for us."
"Avengers, assemble!"
Zed watched the group—in a blaze of fury—rush out like their heads were on fire. He was speechless. They had no idea they were being manipulated.
Coulson really had died, yes—but he would be resurrected later using the Kree body S.H.I.E.L.D. had stored. There was no need to mourn.
Wait… resurrected?Zed suddenly thought of something and raised his head, glancing at Nick Fury.
But Fury didn't pay attention to Zed. He turned to Menyashi instead:
"Now, let's deal with your situation. Tell me why S.H.I.E.L.D.'s database has a 'real' identity file on you. How did that happen?"
Menyashi sat with his eyes closed, resting, and didn't answer. He simply lifted a hand in Zed's direction.
Zed's teeth creaked from clenching. If he weren't no match for Menyashi… if he weren't… sigh. Forget it. He wasn't a match. Period.
Taking a long breath, Zed began introducing:
"The Destroyer of Worlds, Kamen Rider Decade—Menyashi. A traveler wandering through countless worlds. The special agent identity is basically a temporary residence permit issued by this world itself."
"Countless worlds? Temporary residence? Destroyer of Worlds? Demon King Zi-O? Are all Kamen Riders villains!?" Fury blinked his single eye, trying to digest the information.
Menyashi sipped his coffee and said casually:
"There's no Kamen Rider more compassionate than me. Absolutely none."
"There's… there's… definitely none. Anyone who was got killed by you."Zed muttered quietly.
Fury slapped both hands on the table and leaned forward towards Menyashi.
"What is your purpose in coming to this world? Are you really here to destroy it?"
"I only destroy the worlds that should be destroyed. As for whether your world should be destroyed… I'm still observing."
"You don't have the right to decide that for us!" Fury glared at him with his one eye.
Menyashi didn't bother responding. Instead, he raised his camera, clicked, and pulled out a distorted photo.
"Looks just like you."
Pff!
Zed burst out laughing so hard he sprayed cola everywhere.
Cough cough cough—
Fury wiped his face clean of the cola. When he looked at the photo, his expression grew even worse.
Before he could lash out, Menyashi suddenly turned his head, as if his gaze pierced through the void.A few seconds later, a scientist at the controls shouted:
"The wormhole has opened!"
"Get communications repaired faster! Restore contact with the Avengers as soon as possible!" Fury returned to his station and resumed command.
With a wave of Menyashi's hand, a grayish dimensional wall appeared behind the conference table. He stepped inside first.
"Come on, Zi-O."
Zed could only follow. Whether it was fortune or disaster—there was no avoiding it.
"Motherf—!"
Fury watched Menyashi summon a portal so effortlessly and couldn't help being filled with envy… mixed with deep concern.
"Destroyer of Worlds… the most fearsome, most evil Demon King…"
After passing through the dimensional wall, Zed found himself on the rooftop of a building in New York.
Wave after wave of Chitauri bio-engineered soldiers poured out of the wormhole, descending upon the city—destroying everything, killing indiscriminately, turning New York into a battlefield from hell.
Menyashi stood on the rooftop, looking at the Chitauri troops from afar, and suddenly said:
"Your personality is too extreme. You're not suited to be a Kamen Rider."
"Instead of me protecting them… isn't it better that they learn to protect themselves?"Zed's eyes hardened with determination.
Menyashi pointed toward the panicked civilians scrambling below.
"And those who can't protect themselves? Just let them fend for themselves?"
Zed shook his head and pointed at the wormhole.
"There are endless problems in this world—some natural, but most man-made. I'm not humanity's babysitter. People need to take responsibility for themselves.
All I need to do is get stronger. Keep getting stronger—strong enough to crush any enemy from beyond. And when someone crosses the red line, I'll show them the power of a Kamen Rider."
Menyashi lifted his head toward the wormhole as well."So you're ready to face these ugly alien monsters?"
"I've been ready for a long time."
Zed took out his phone and contacted Setron:
"Full deployment! Let this world—this universe—know who the true master of this planet is!"
"Received. Kamen Rider units, Chrono Demon God Machine, Delan Dragon Castle, Musou Dragon, Unmanned Watermelon Armor—all deploying. Prototype Great Demon God on standby."
"Full army—move out! Crush them!"
