"Heh~ Heh~ Hahahahaha~ Watashi wa! Kami da!"
Dan Kuroto excitedly grabbed Zed's shoulders and shook him violently, "It's done! How could such a small thing possibly stump me? My talent is truly terrifying! Hahaha~"
"Truly worthy of Kami! Xiajiao! Introduce it to me!" Zed was also incredibly excited. He finally didn't have to be a demon lord with his tail between his legs, terrified of failing and dying.
"Then let me allow you to admire it! Golden Eye has infiltrated the entire New York surveillance system. Pressing a button can arbitrarily change the images captured by the cameras. But! This is not enough to demonstrate my divine talent. All modified source videos, if viewed multiple times, will have a new Bugster detection virus hidden within that will locate the target and report to me. How is it? Are you shocked by my talent? How could that woman named Skye possibly compare to me, the new - Dan Kuroto - Kami-sama!"
Clap~ Clap clap~ Clap clap~~ Clap~ Speechless, he could only applaud, half in gratitude and half in praise of Dan Kuroto.
"I'm starting to appreciate you more and more! Someone like you, with such insight, is qualified to follow me. Ha~ Hahahahaha~" Dan Kuroto was completely beside himself at this point.
At the Stark Industries board meeting, everyone was arguing fiercely. The board members couldn't find Tony and could only vent their anger on Stan.
"Is Tony Stark insane? He actually dared to shut down the weapons department. Does he think this company is his personal fiefdom?"
"Where does that leave us? Shutting down weapons! Does he want us all to starve?"
Some of the older board members were practically spitting on Stan. Stan could only curse internally, while forcing a smile and comforting them, "Alright! Alright! Calm down! We have to trust Tony, he's a genius. He must have some ideas. Stark Industries will definitely not decline like this."
Bullshit! Right now, the person who wanted to protect Tony the most in the whole world was Stan. Before Tony, the goose that laid golden eggs, could lay the most precious Iron Man golden egg, who dared to disturb Tony? Stan would probably fight them to the death.
After the board meeting, the third-largest shareholder, Morgan Fog, stayed behind to have a private conversation with Stan. "What do you think? Is Tony Stark being willful, and you're going along with it? This company has always been Howard who was in charge of development, and you were in charge of business. What are you doing now?"
"Old friend! We've worked together for so many years. You know I love this company more than anyone, including the Starks, father and son. I won't let Stark Industries fall, believe me, Morgan! This is an opportunity to take Stark Industries to the next level, I need your support! Morgan!" Stan was sincerely trying to win over Morgan.
Morgan was the largest among the neutral faction on the company's board of directors and usually didn't participate in company decisions. However, Stan, who was already prepared to get rid of Tony and seize the company, had to get the support of these neutral factions. Otherwise, he would only end up with a fragmented company.
"I'm just a businessman, Stan. For me, the 'industry' part of Stark Industries is more important!"
Stan's tactic of tarnishing Tony's image with the board members by indulging him naturally wouldn't fool the seasoned Morgan. But Morgan wasn't a Stark; he sided with whoever made money.
With Morgan's hint, Stan grew more confident in his plan.
Taking advantage of the weekend, Zed took Xiajiao out for some fun. It wasn't that Zed was particularly concerned about keeping his word. It was because Xiajiao, when in a frenzy, was like a noisy child, easily appeased with a little coaxing.
But facing a calm Xiajiao, Zed felt a bit panicked. God only knew what crazy ideas he'd cooked up behind the scenes. After all, this was the guy who created the Kamen Rider Chronicle!
On the rooftop of the Empire State Building in New York, Dan Kuroto spread his arms, gazing at the entire city. "This city is so boring! It doesn't showcase my talents at all!"
"It won't be long before the era of superheroes and supervillains arrives, and then you'll definitely be satisfied," Zed said to Dan Kuroto, sitting on an air conditioning duct.
"I hope so!" Dan Kuroto sighed after speaking, but then turned around and asked Zed, "So, what's your goal? Are you just using me to make the Golden Eye?"
Zed looked at Dan Kuroto, feeling the earnestness in his eyes and his calm mental state. Zed knew he couldn't get away with it this time, and after three or four seconds, he slowly began, "I envy you! People say that being one step ahead of the times makes you a genius, and two steps ahead makes you a madman. A guy like you, it's not an exaggeration to call you a god."
"I am God!"
Zed ignored Dan Kuroto, took a sip of Happy Water, and continued, "And as for me, I'm a pretty pathetic Demon King. I'm just a selfish, ordinary person. I'm not cruel enough, not smart enough, not strong enough. In a sense, I'm like a parasite, needing to draw sustenance from you. How's that for realistic?"
After hearing Zed's words, Dan Kuroto lowered his head, his shoulders trembling as a burst of laughter erupted: "Heh~ Haha~~ Ha~ Zed↗ Oleg↘! Why have you come to this new world?
Why were you chosen as the Demon King despite your lack of talent? Why were you able to summon me, who am a god?
The answer is simple—your existence in this world is to highlight the greatness of the new-Dan Kuroto-Kami sama! Be grateful! I permit you to use the blessing of the gods!
Hahahaha~ Ha~~" (Peak performance, imagine for yourself)
Even though Dan Kuroto's words were a bit hurtful, Zed couldn't find anything to argue with. Well! Whatever! As long as the result is good, that's all that matters.
"Zed!" Dan Kuroto suddenly called out, having calmed down, "Having enjoyed the blessing of the gods, you should also make an offering to the god, right?"
"Meow~ Meow meow~~ Meow~??"
"I'm hungry! I haven't tasted human food in a long time, I want to enjoy it at the most high-end restaurant." Dan Kuroto looked as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Zed couldn't help but touch his wallet, his voice trembling. "Xiajiao! Are you sure we're going to the most expensive restaurant? I wouldn't have enough even if I sold myself! Let's go somewhere else!"
"How much money do you have? Let me see it!"
"Yamero!"
All of Zed's savings had been taken by Dan Kuroto, which was only enough to spend a little at a mid-range hotel. Anything more was out of the question.
The dishes on the table weren't luxurious, just the lowest-grade food in the restaurant. But Dan Kuroto ate with relish.
"Xiajiao, do Bugsters need to eat human food?" Zed took a big sniff of a plate of lemon bass.
"No, replenishing energy in the Driver is enough for daily needs. Hmm~ The chef's skills here are pretty good. If you had more money, we could open another bottle of champagne. Hmm~~"
Zed's hand holding the knife was burning hot, and he furiously attacked the bass.
"Zed! Something's wrong!" Dan Kuroto suddenly put down his knife and fork, looking around with a puzzled expression.
Zed swallowed a piece of fish: "What is it?"
"Something is spreading in the air, like a nerve signal, yet also like a biological hormone. What is this?"
Dan Kuroto's words immediately made Zed become alert, wary of any potential danger.
A guest sitting at the table next to them stood up with a numb expression and walked outside. Not only that, but the entire restaurant's patrons were also gradually leaving the restaurant.
The cautious Zed pulled Dan Kuroto into a blind spot, and at that moment, a blonde beauty with a wooden expression and a man in a purple suit walked into the restaurant hand in hand.
The purple-suited man scanned the room and said to the doll-like waiter: "Bring out your best wine. I want to enjoy a wonderful candlelit dinner with my darling."
The waiter turned and walked into the kitchen without a word.
Zed didn't recognize the beautiful woman at first, but the man beside her, with his signature purple suit and the ability to control people's minds, made it impossible for Zed not to recognize them. Jessica Jones and Zebediah Killgrave, a complete pervert, and a pervert whose abilities were very troublesome.
Zed could already feel his thoughts slowing. From a distance, Zed could still resist for a while due to his superior physical condition. But after Killgrave entered the restaurant, Zed couldn't hold on any longer.
"Xiajiao, his mind control doesn't work on your Bugster body?" Zed asked, seeing Dan Kuroto's expression was normal.
"Mind control? Right! This guy's ability to control other people's minds through something transmitted in the air is truly an interesting ability!" Dan Kuroto looked at the two people at the table with his eyes shining.
"Alright! Focus! Xiajiao! I can't hold on much longer, can you enter my body and take control?" Zed said, a little dazed.
Dan Kuroto turned his head and looked at Zed with an evil look, saying with ill intentions, "You said it yourself, I didn't force you, you know!"
Shaking his head, Zed might have already lost his mind at this point. He took out his Driver and Gashat, "I'm leaving it to you, remember to activate Golden Eye."
Dan Kuroto then transformed into an orange Bugster and entered Zed's body.
Zebediah Killgrave sat in his seat, rubbing his cheek against Jessica's hand while whispering sweet nothings to the dazed Jessica across from him. "My beautiful Jessica! What do you think of this wine? Does it suit my pearl? Oh~ Oh~~ If you don't speak, I'll take that as a yes. You must be very pleased with the candlelit dinner I've prepared for you, yes?"
The dazed look on "Zed's" face vanished, replaced by a devilish charm that filled his entire face.
"Zed" clenched the Genm Gashat, not using the Gamer Driver. He directly activated the Genm Gashat. A purple pointer appeared, spun, and the Bugster Driver appeared on his waist, the Gashat transforming into the Genm Rider Gashat Lv.2.
"Henshin!"
A low, sexy voice rang out, along with unavoidable game effects that appeared at the corner. It immediately caught Killgrave's attention, and he shouted in a rage, "Who is it! Come out!"
"Kamen Rider Genm!"
