Then he pointed at Bad Beast and Hoshiwa outside the window - even himself!
"Okay, it's decided! In this way, the two of us will have a lifelong relationship and become good friends!"
Wait, maybe the result is the same, but is this skipping too much?!
"Ya——" They both wanted to call Ash next to them to stop and ask him to stay and explain, but they found that there was no Ash beside them. Only the exhaust gas left by him running away on the spot was still swirling in place.
"This Ash."
Although they were complaining, the two of them did not let go of each other's hands.
"No way, if that's the case, have we become good friends?"
"Yes, it's really simple." Probably as Ash said, the various similarities between the two made them feel more or less like a tacit understanding. "Since Ash has said so, then in order to show off that guy who is hiding somewhere, I would like to ask for your advice, Kohime!"
"Of course, maybe one day we can grow up to be someone we can rely on, Iona!"
Standing on the tall building directly opposite Bad Beast, the two girls, who had deep resentments and multiple misunderstandings between them, truly managed to smile at each other and let go of their grudges.
Including the subsequent development of the two fighting together to easily defeat Bad Beast, this is a logical result.
Chapter 125 Phantom Empire is completely destroyed! Ash is dangerous!
"Yo, chair."
"Who are you calling the chair?" Hoshiwa wanted to refute angrily as he recalled the time when Hoshiwa, who was unwilling to recall the past, greeted the man who casually greeted him as he passed by. "I am Hoshiwa! I am a cadre of the Phantom Empire - I am Hoshiwa! Why do you always hold on to that thing!!"
I bet you have someone kneel down in front of Pretty Cure and use it as a chair for you. Not only that, but they also sit on my back and eat my afternoon tea! Not to mention, when that monster that followed you inexplicably appeared, I was almost crushed by it!
I am, I am Hoshiwa like a lady! I should be noble no matter what, but you trampled on my dignity like garbage... I obviously belong to a lady and a beautiful girl! Why, how could you, a dirty man, treat me like this? After all, this is all your fault!
"But." The guy who usually looks down on others from a high position actually falls down and is despised by others, so he jumps angrily. Ash said that no matter how many times he watches it, he never gets tired of it. "This is not false, right? You just lost to me, so you should be willing to accept defeat, right?"
"Who would have thought that Cure Princess, who has always been embarrassed, suddenly woke up and couldn't be embarrassed forever——!" Hoshiwa, who was so angry that his whole face turned red, suddenly thought of it. Speaking of which, he pretended to be a soldier to help that Sweet Angel... In this case, it is entirely possible that he and Pretty Cure teamed up to plot against me! Maybe the awakening of Cure Princess was also part of his plan. In this case...
"You wouldn't... Could it be that you are actually the spy used by Pretty Cure to infiltrate us?"
"Oh~?" Ash was a little surprised to hear that she thought so. "Looking back on the past, I did have a lot of experience of lurking and betrayal, but unfortunately, that is not the case this time."
"Hoho - do you have any evidence?"
Hoshiwa sneered twice, thinking that he had definitely caught the opponent this time!
That's right, just keep talking so hard that I will expose your shenanigans in front of the Queen later. If you don't get off the stage, what else can you do?!
"Evidence? That's not necessary." Ash flicked his collar, and his tone was no longer the casual tone when he teased Hoshiwa. Instead, it was a frosty sneer that shocked the complacent Hoshiwa. "If I really just plan to use my own power to attack you."
"I can defeat you all by myself."
"You——!!!"
Pointing at the sneering man in front of her, Hoshiwa's increasingly cold heart trembled together with her raised fingers. She could see it, she could feel it! This man really thinks so confidently!
That smile that definitely doesn't look fake... could he really be able to do it!?
It's impossible, even if he is the true destroyer of the world, no matter how powerful he is in front of so many of us - although he wanted to refute it on the spot, when he recalled what he had seen through the mirror at that time, the dark blue sword Rider that he had transformed into, which was enough to cause visions in the world, the words he originally rebutted turned to his lips and he couldn't say it from his heart.
This person... couldn't he be serious? You're kidding, right? You're kidding, right?!
"Nice expression." Witnessing the expression on Hoshiwa's face slowly changing from subtle pride to silent horror, Ash, who was greatly satisfied, patted her on the shoulder and continued walking towards the Phantom Empire's kitchen. "Unfortunately, it's too artificial and not my cup of tea."
Unless you can also have a chance to clear your name and surprise me... But judging from your current performance, I'll put a question mark on whether you can do it?
"Right now, the Queen has personally instructed me that my work needs to be completed. Please get out of the way."
"Queen, I still feel-"
"You were talking bad about me again while I was away." Worst Grunt, who was instructing the waiter next to him, put plates of exquisite food on the round dining table in front of Phantom Queen. Ash almost laughed out loud after taking a look at the extra OK bandage on Phantom's nose. "Didn't I just break your nose again? You're so petty~ Don't worry, I will also eat it this time so it won't be poisoned."
"What I decide, no one else needs to talk!" After confidently rejecting Phantom's loyalty as a villain, the queen was very proud that she had completed every episode of the live broadcast, especially the slices of "monster cuisine" made by Ash. She had a fresh memory. You must know that the ugly food she cooked for the yellow Precure was so delicious!
Looking over the uncovered dinner plate, Phantom Queen showed a happy and satisfied smile when facing the extremely exquisite Manchu-Han banquet where every plate was made into a work of art.
The food that was so disgusting in the past was delicious, so of course such a beautiful dish will taste even better this time!
"Well done, it seems that you sincerely joined my Phantom Empire~" She looked with satisfaction at the way Ash, the guest chef, bowed to her. The Queen, who was in a good mood, also generously called Oresuki, who was a bit greedy, and other cadres to join her. "This time, I specifically allow you to come and taste my queen's banquet together."
"Of course, Phantom you too."
"Yes!" If it was the queen's order, he would eat it no matter what it was, including the Ash dishes that he didn't believe at first, but this time he stuffed the food into his mouth angrily and the first bite made him feel surprised.
Delicious, indeed very good! Could it be said that this time there is really no problem but I misunderstood him?
Until other flavors came after the delicious taste, Phantom's attitude towards Ash began to change slightly.
"Hmm~ That restaurant really doesn't understand. Of course the beef must be cooked this way to be delicious."
After putting the last piece of specially prepared beef on the plate into his mouth, the satisfied Ash looked around at the table. Several people who were dining with him not long ago were either frothing at the mouth, or rolling their eyes like in the book and already unconscious. Some people even looked so flashy that their real bodies were about to come out.
As long as he is serious, one person can solve the entire Phantom Empire. As if in response to this sentence, the senior management of the Phantom Empire, who was once a powerful enemy of Pretty Cure, was "completely wiped out" in front of him.
"I really didn't poison, I just made the smell stronger." He looked at the expressions of despair on the faces of several people with some regrets, and sighed at how few people understood him. Ash shook his head and picked up a handkerchief to wipe the oil stains around his mouth.
"I really don't know how to do it~"
Chapter 126: Time alone with the Queen! Get!
"Since you promised to surrender to me, you must also provide value - I ask you to prepare delicious food for me."
Ash had certainly expected that after entering the villain organization, he would be ordered around by his superiors. After all, not all villain bosses were as empathetic and loyal as a guy named "Heart". However, what surprised Ash was that this was the request he made?
Let me do it, seriously? Very good!
Although I don't know whether the other party knows it or knows nothing about it, since it was proposed and delivered to my door, Ash would be disrespectful - especially when the other party specifically requested that kind of high-end and exquisite food.
Ugly food is a delicious treat.
Exquisite food is of course the ultimate "dark cuisine" that is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Only in this way can it be called a symmetrical development of drama, otherwise it would not be interesting enough ~ Those Phantom Empire people just don't know how to do it.
Hoshiwa, who had a grudge after being ridiculed by Ash, never ate too much from the beginning. This grudge actually "saved" her life, making her the first person to hold onto the wall from the toilet with a pale face.
That guy - he really wasn't lying...
"Yo~!"
Seeing the culprit greeting him as he passed by the toilet door, Hoshiwa's originally pale color even started to turn red and purple.
"You-!"
"What is your purpose of approaching us!?"
"No, at least not for you."
"Aren't you afraid of Queen's punishment?!"
"You're not afraid." She didn't even look at the lustful Hoshiwa. She even saw that the expression on Ash's face was not confidence in his own strength, but an expression of "indifferent" that did not take the threat seriously.
If Hoshiwa was still doubtful about Ash's wild words before, now he has truly begun to believe it.
When she thought that such a "free" person could possess such a powerful power as the Imperial Cavalry, cold sweat suddenly covered the back of the female cadre and wet her clothes. Now she could not think of anything except the fear of him. "You... then you! Although Phantom Queen invited you... but Phantom Empire doesn't have what you want at all!"
Now she completely understands that if he really wants to do something to them, I am afraid that Hoshiwa is like a chicken who can only run away when facing an eagle without any means of resistance!
Now that she was thinking about this kind of thing that was at the mercy of others and even terrifying, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she felt.
If we are really no match as you said, then even if we have what you have, you can still seize it by force with your own strength - in this case, why would you betray Pretty Cure, who were so close to you, for no reason at all!
"Adiós (goodbye), baby~."
Ash, who had no intention of answering, returned to idle mode, leaving the shuddering Hoshiwa alone in a cold sweat.
"Ash——You guy!" Oresuki, the second one who could barely survive due to his physical fitness, bumped into him as soon as he came out. Thinking of his humiliating past after being defeated by him, the man in uniform was so angry that he was ready to settle old and new grudges and rushed towards him regardless of his physical weakness. "I want to duel with you!"
Ash, who didn't even look back, just tilted his head slightly to avoid the man's attack, then grabbed the outstretched hand and threw it over his shoulder, pushing him to the ground. When the dizzy man opened his eyes again, what he saw was the fist that was as big as a casserole and hovered in front of his sweaty nose after a rapid attack.
"We won, it was such a pleasant duel~"
"Don't underestimate me!" Seeing the opponent smiling and showing two fingers to him, it looked like a mockery. Oresuki, whose eyes were red, simply used up his energy and flew up to jump again. "I am Ole who has received the Queen recognition medal——"
"I know, Dio."
"Peng!" But before all that power could be concentrated and exploded, Ash's fist, which was close at hand, had already been filled with bullets, and a series of afterimages exploded from the spot. With one punch, the man's head was driven into the ground.
"This is my third consecutive victory, DIO-san~!" He positioned Oresuki, who was being driven into the ground like a rice seedling, to act as a road sign, and Ash, who was very polite and even used honorifics, said goodbye to this indomitable cadre.
Oresuki Although you are usually very rude, it's so miserable that you can't even remember your name this time, so who is DIO... Is there really no one Phantom Empire who can stop him from doing whatever he wants... Ah wu——!
Glancing at someone who was hiding in the corner and immediately retracting his sight after seeing his gaze, Ash's cheerful expression became even more intense.
You ask Phantom Empire, is there anything that I can't take away by force but that I want? There really is~
"After all, it was that Phantom Queen who said it. Pretty Cure is all up to me to choose... Haha."
I think of Phantom Queen, who probably suggested that she want to taste her own craftsmanship after watching a live broadcast, especially the idiot-like pride she had when she talked about it... Haha, my "nose" is very good, so of course I trust my intuition very much!
What we did this time was not only to give Phantom Empire a "show of authority", but more importantly, it was so annoying that Phantom followed the queen like a dog. If we didn't do something, we wouldn't be able to seize the opportunity at all.
Fortunately, it was successful this time, and finally——
I found an opportunity to be alone with Phantom Queen!
"It can't be wrong... Since you said it was up to me to choose, then of course I will choose the most valuable role!"
So, I won't be polite~
"How could it be possible? I've obviously seen it before -"
Phantom Queen, who was lying on the tatami in her boudoir, was rolling in a circle on the tatami without any shame. The corner of her mouth was twitching, and she carefully recalled the expression of the yellow Pretty Cure when she tasted the food. It was obvious that she was so happy when she tasted the delicious food. Why did I...
Ahhhhh - it must all be that Pretty Cure's fault, that Cure Honey's fault!
"It's obviously delicious, why does it taste so bad..."
"Queen." Ash was surprised to find that the door was not locked, so he followed the hero's tradition of never knocking and opened the door directly. "I'm coming in."
Ash, who originally thought she would see the contrasting cute pink atmosphere or the scary decoration of a torture chamber, was surprised. She was surprised that Phantom Queen's usual residence was so simple.
Whether it was the simple Japanese-style interior with an entire wooden structure or the tatami mats under his feet, or the shadow of the swaying oil lamp that had long been eliminated by modern inventions, this scene even reminded him of the last time he guest-starred on the set of a period drama in the "Smile" world.
I remember saying that that god sealed Phantom Empire for more than three hundred years, right? In this case... it seems to be right?
"It looks like I'm Queen this time." Looking at Phantom Queen who was hurriedly covering up his embarrassing behavior and getting up when he arrived, Ash, who seemed to understand, chuckled. "Are you a very nostalgic person?"
Chapter 127: Easily defeat the villain boss, because I am Kamen Rider
Phantom Queen, who was feeling a turbulence in his stomach, hadn't gone to find Ash yet, but he didn't expect that this person would take the initiative and find him in turn. Phantom Queen, who had never expected this to happen, hurriedly cleaned up the embarrassingly messy room. For a moment, he didn't notice that Ash seemed to have noticed something from the decoration.
"D-What did you do?!"
It wasn't until the belated queen saw the man standing at the door of her room, scanning with a scrutinizing gaze that she reacted, and then a source of anger was directed at the guy in front of her.
Wait, this is obviously my room - why did you come in so naturally! Is it too natural? And... you obviously ate that strange thing not long ago... Humph, are you planning to come to my place to accept punishment? You have some conscience!
Don't think that you can do whatever you want if you have my favor before. Originally, I have always hated you! It's just that when you brought "misfortune" to Pretty Cure, there was a slight change. Do you think I will let you go?! What a great idea!
"I want-"
"Speaking of which, three hundred years ago it was about Edo Period, right?"
Hearing the familiar title of the era that had long been buried deep in her heart, the queen, who was arrogant and ready to angrily rebuke Ash, was immediately relieved. Her crimson eyes trembled slightly at the unexpected shock.
That era was mine... why would he know?!
When he met Ash's already aware eyes that observed the whole room, Phantom Queen realized that he had asked a stupid question in his heart.
"I don't hate the Edo style. Although the food is too simple, it was still a very interesting era." Ash, who did not see the change in the expression on the queen's face, continued to talk. "Aren't you going to tell me about it? For example, did you see Five-Colored Samurai and ninjas at that time..."
When he met those indifferent eyes, Ash, who understood the other party's unforgiving mood at the moment, also put away his original careless attitude. "Really, isn't this look just saying that he won't tell me anything? It's so boring."
Pulling out a throne out of thin air and sitting on it, Phantom Queen, who put his scepter on the ground, immediately abandoned his usual weak posture. Phantom Queen, who has once again transformed into the "Evil Queen" in the fairy tale, is unreservedly releasing the aura of terror and cruelty towards Ash.
