The explosion in the Mecha-World sent a chill down the spines of the viewers in the Live Broadcast Room. If even mechas couldn't defeat such a terrifying monster, what could possibly stop it?

However, the figure that was ejected from the explosion drew everyone's attention away. Feng Xue, who had been blasted away by the explosion, rolled several times on the ground before finally crashing into a torii gate pillar. She spat out a mouthful of blood, Open Mouth, Close Eyes, and let out a cry of pain.

However, the Yamata no Orochi seemed to have no intention of giving Feng Xue any chance to catch her breath. Before she could even move, it opened its mouth and spewed out eight strange flames of different attributes.

Frost, poison, lightning, fire...

Various forces intertwined, but instead of neutralizing each other, they precisely struck the man lying on the ground with his Open Mouth, Close Eyes.

However, the scene of being reduced to ashes as imagined did not occur. Instead, as if replicating the previous scene, the tattered man was blasted away again, rolled more than a dozen times, and then opened his Open Mouth, Close Eyes once more.

[Does this scene look familiar?]

[Me too?]

[Have I been Izanagi?]

[It could also be Infinite Tsukuyomi.]

The previously silent barrage of comments began to stir again, while Feng Xue, who had just blasted two suits of armor, supported herself with one hand and activated the Great Yin Molting Technique. Her immense Internal Force was transformed into life force, continuously flowing into the Saint Seiya Training Suit.

The bonuses from the Ironclad and Mech World were fully inherited, and he gazed at the still expanding behemoth, reaching behind him to pull out a small box with a dual texture of plastic and metal.

[Grass?!]

[You know martial arts, pilot mecha, and have Kamen Rider belt—who exactly are you?!]

[Masked Fighting Legend?]

[Masked Road, a grand serial!]

Seeing the streamer's "Get out of the way, I'm about to show off!" attitude, the viewers in the Live Broadcast Room relaxed from their previous tension. And as each "Martial Arts Master" typed with the speed of acupressure, Feng Xue finally pressed the Transformation Belt in front of her—

"Time to Transform ~~"

"Are you ready?"

A powerful background sound effect rang out, Feng Xue reached in and pulled out a card with a Ukiyo-e style, but covered with all sorts of Demons and Monsters, which was popped out by the Companion Phantom - Kamen Rider System.

He pressed down on the Transformation Belt with one hand, a slight smile playing on his lips. A massive amount of [consciousness] surged into the card in an overloaded manner, causing the already somewhat flamboyant card to shimmer with a crystal-like luster, and fine cracks began to spread across its surface.

Just as the card was about to shatter, flames suddenly burst into flames on Feng Xue's hand. He precisely threw the nearly broken crystal card into the Transformation Belt, placed his right hand on his waist, and pointed his left hand diagonally at the ground. Martial True Intent was activated, and ancient pavilions and towers rose up behind him.

The [Xuanjun Pavilion] activated his power, drawing upon the Xuanjun Pavilion's Weird Tale infusing them with Feng Xue's Martial Way Will. As the music reached its climax, he coldly activated the Transformation Belt at his waist—

"Transform!"

"Thump~~~"

The sound of the Bell of Absolution echoed through the air. In the Xuanjun Pavilion, the murals representing the various Heavenly Demon Aspects detached from the walls and danced wildly in the sky. Beneath the scene that made one's sanity drop at first glance, chains woven from light suddenly shot out from the black armor that was gradually forming on Feng Xue's body, binding all the endless phantoms of the Heavenly Demon.

"Demons and Night Parade of a Hundred Demons; this is the time for your reign!"

The chains woven with radiance suddenly tightened, and one after another, the phantoms of celestial demons seemed to be dragged by an immense force, throwing themselves into the pitch-black armor in extremely ferocious and twisted forms, transforming into grotesque patterns outlined by golden lines.

A golden cloak moved without wind, and sixteen palm-sized silver short swords intertwined at her waist, transforming into a silver battle skirt.

The earth-shaking sound effects abruptly ceased, leaving only a calm yet explosive spoken word.

"Kamen Rider ~~"

"Xuanjun!!!"

[Rejoice! The monarch who gathers the power of many and suppresses all demons, Kamen Rider -kun, has arrived!]

The comments section was filled with lines starting with "Celebrate!" and Feng Xue felt her [Meme Power Buff] surge to an unprecedented level.

Behind him, Gu Poison Body, under his will, constructed icons representing Tag and powers.

[Justice Partner]!

[Martial World Myth]!

Believe in Science!

[Iron-Blooded Tough Guy!]

The Heart Over Matter!

[Mastery of a Hundred Schools]!

[The Nemesis of Evil Paths]!

[The Supernatural Tale Nemesis]!

As each Tag was activated and each power was unlocked, Feng Xue's domineering aura immediately surged! It surged wildly! It surged powerfully!

His aura at this moment was 50 times stronger than ever before!

Unparalleled domineering ambition, unparalleled madness!

Such a terrifyingly powerful being... what in the world can withstand him? Damn it, what in the world can withstand him?!

The giant snake, which was clearly over a hundred meters tall, was terrifying, but in front of Feng Xue was only two meters tall, it seemed to be completely insignificant.

"A natural oven!"

The standard Yan Country Language emanated from his sky, and the world that should have belonged to Tamamo-no-Mae's Companion Phantom suddenly began to tremble. The earth began to shake, the mountains and rocks began to crumble, and the buildings collapsed.

The Yamata no Orochi seemed to sense the impending danger. Its scorching flames, mixed with its filthy venomous blood, transformed into a raging flood, surging into giant waves that crashed down on Feng Xue.

Feng Xue's Supernatural Tale Fire burned rapidly, as if endless [consciousness] was gushing out from his body, spraying towards the world like a fountain, as if to dye the entire collapsing demon realm with his color!

"Diyong Hardware!"

Elements flashed through Feng Xue's eyes, a mixture of remnants from Takama-ga-hara, the filth and blood of Yamata no Orochi, and a massive amount of [consciousness] matter flowing through Feng Xue vision, then constantly disintegrating, disintegrating, disintegrating.

The Golden Finger that was originally for Manufacturing Type things has now transformed into absolute Destructive Power. All matter composed of [consciousness] will turn into chaotic information Garbled Code and evaporate completely before his eyes after being separated from the power of its original owner.

Suddenly, within a burst of light, the boulder twisted and contorted. Feng Xue exerted force with his feet, Ascending Profound Settled View Steps. The Phantom Object that had been created by chance merely served as a stepping stone, propelling him to an even higher place.

No, that's not the case!

As Feng Xue leaped high into the air, the Phantom Object seemed to gain sentience, tracing paths through the air, bypassing the surrounding Miscellaneous Item and towering waves of blood, and precisely piercing the giant snake's eyes.

More than one!

Not countless!

At this moment, beams of precious light enveloped the Yamata no Orochi!

Why not abandon the Yan Kingdom, find a small, defunct country, establish a stronghold there, and promote witchcraft...? How can anyone ask such a stupid question?

I don't know if you have some misunderstanding about national power. Don't think you know everything about this just because you've read some cheap information from street vendors.

First of all, although all countries have fighting techniques, and Asians are at the top of the social hierarchy abroad... this does not conflict with the fame of kung fu! Yan Country Kung Fu was promoted by a group of filmmakers led by Bruce Lee, just as the martial arts culture of the East is famous not because of its own strength, but because of the East's tireless cultural promotion.

Brazil has Jiu-Jitsu, but are there any Jiu-Jitsu movies in the world? South Korea has Karate, but are there any Karate-themed movies? Maybe one or two, but are there any large genres like Yan Country Kung Fu, Japanese Samurai, or Ninja?

Moreover, even without considering the whole world, just looking at Yan Country alone, with its population of over a billion, its brand recognition is inherently strong.

Secondly, the idea of finding a small, defunct country to seize power... Goodness, have you been reading too much cheap, low-brow literature? Even those African countries that have been exploited through unsustainable depletion of resources have the backing of major powers. Do you really think a coup by ten people can guarantee their rule?

Finally, even if you manage to conquer a small, unusual country like Gambia or Haiti, have you considered the issues of technology, industry, and population? Do you know how many computers, mobile phones, and televisions those countries actually have? Spreading Weird Tale in such places is tantamount to completely abandoning modern technology, media, and population advantages. What are you trying to achieve?
