Meanwhile, Den-Liner.
In front of the same car background, different people unfolded different scenes.
Ryotaro Nogami, Yuto Sakurai and Gates chatted while eating.
The focus of their conversation was how to continue to implement the plan without the Knight Pass.
By the way, Deneb was already kicked back to Zero-Liner by Sakurai Yuto because he added Shiitake mushrooms, which Sakurai Yuto hates most, into the soup.
The soup with mushrooms was forwarded to Gates by Yuuto Sakurai.
Gates: "..."
It’s not a shame, the soup tastes really good.
He even wanted to have another bowl...
cough!
Back to business.
Ryotaro Nogami's plan can be roughly divided into three stages.
one,
Fuitaros completed the contract, opened the door to the past, and flew to the time before Tide transformed Hana and Kuunaga Shingo into alien knights.
two,
Place the blank ticket on Kukunaga Shingo's body, read the flight time of Windtalus, and imprint the date on the ticket.
Immediately, they set off immediately to go to the [past] shown on the ticket.
three,
Joined up with Wind Talos and fought against the time robber Teide to prevent Teide from transforming Hana and Kuunaga Shingo into alien knights.
above.
Therefore, the first topic Ryotaro Nogami and the others talked about was, if the Demon King has not returned the Knight Pass until the beginning of the second stage, then how can they go back to the past?
After all, without the Knight Pass, Ryotaro Nogami would not be able to drive the Den-Liner to the corresponding time even if he had the ticket in hand.
Of course, this question is not difficult.
Because Den-Liner doesn’t work, isn’t there Zero-Liner?
The same applies to using the ticket when Yuuto Sakurai drives the Zero-Liner.
Even if something goes wrong with the Zero-Liner, it doesn't matter, because there is still Gates' Time Demon Machine as the base.
With a little repair and repair, you can continue flying.
After all, the previous collision in the space-time tunnel only damaged the outer armor of the Time Demon Machine. The time-space transfer system as its core can still operate normally.
In short, the first problem has been successfully solved.
After the appetizers, it was time to serve the main course.
Nogami Ryotaro asked Gates: "Gates, do you have any thoughts about fighting Tide?"
Yes, going back in time is just a small thing.
Whether they can stop Ti De is the key to the success of their plan.
When Ryotaro Nogami and Yuto Sakurai are unable to transform, as the only fighting force, Gates' success or failure becomes crucial.
But after Gates heard this question, he was slightly stunned, with a puzzled look on his face.
"Idea...what idea?"
Gates thought to himself, their plan, to put it bluntly, isn't it just to go straight to Tide's face?
What else do you need to think about...
Just go ahead and fight.
"???"
Ryotaro Nogami was confused by Gates' rhetorical question.
So reckless?
Ryotaro Nogami looked at Gates and said with a slight hesitation:
"...I think it's better for us to be more cautious. After all, we only have one chance."
After Yuto Sakurai heard what Gates said, he reprimanded him directly:
"Gates, do you really realize the weight of the responsibility you bear?"
After finishing speaking, before Gates could speak, Sakurai Yuto continued:
“As Nogami said, we only have one chance, and as the only combat force, your victory or defeat is directly linked to the success or failure of our operation!
But what's going on with your current mentality?
Do you think that as long as we pass by, Tide will be at ease? "
Sakurai Yuto said angrily:
"Are you really fully prepared!?"
Sakurai Yuto looked closely into Gates' eyes and asked:
"If that's the case, can you please tell us how you plan to deal with Tide's ability?"
Time to stop, mind control.
Gates, who had visited Shotaro Ishimori with Yuuto Sakurai, naturally knew this information.
But when it comes to how to deal with them...
Gates: "..."
Under Sakurai Yuto's gaze, he opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't even formulate a response plan.
Yes, let alone mental control, just the ability to time and stop is very troublesome.
I would like to ask, what if the time robber does not use it to escape, but uses it to fight?
Of course, there is a reason why Gates ignored this "important issue."
And the main reason is...
In the previous incidents of strange knights, because the time-stopping ability of the time robbers was completely ineffective in front of Tokiwa Shogo, when the time robbers encountered them, the first reaction was never to raise their hands to stop, but, Stay out of it, or run away.
Over time, Gates no longer cared much about Time Robber's ability to stop time.
And after Tsukuyomi also gained the ability to stop time, the signature ability of Time Robbers completely lost its deterrent effect in Gates' mind.
From this perspective, in fact, Gates has long been accustomed to fighting with Shogo Tokiwa.
It's just that Gates has never realized this.
It was not until this time that Gates was awakened by Sakurai Yuuto, and for the first time, Gates truly felt that he wanted to fight alone, face everything alone, and solve problems alone.
Very subtly, when Gates realized that Shogo Tokiwa might not appear in the next battle, what subconsciously rose from his heart was nothing but a touch of sadness.
And that feeling of sadness is called loneliness.
Along with it, there is also a huge pressure.
That was something he had never considered before, the pressure of failure!
"……Feel sorry."
Gates apologized to Yuuto Sakurai.
It's him who is too impetuous.
Hearing this, Sakurai Yuto took a deep breath and said nothing.
The surrounding atmosphere suddenly became a little heavy.
Ryotaro Nogami quickly smoothed things over and said:
"Actually, I have a method here for dealing with time-stopping."
Facing Sakurai Yuto and Gates who looked over because of these words, Ryotaro Nogami continued:
"As a train that travels in time, the Den-Liner will not be affected by the time stoppage of the time robber. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be able to chase Tide to this timeline.
To be honest, if I hadn't been blocked by the alien Den-Liner midway, I wouldn't have followed Teed.
Of course, this is all what has happened...
What I mean is that since Den-Liner is not affected, then Zero-Liner will naturally not be affected either.
Therefore, as long as the Zero-Liner is allowed to enter the field to disrupt the time of the corresponding space after Tide's time stop, Tide's time stop will naturally be self-defeating. "
Having said this, Ryotaro Nogami paused and continued.
"Furthermore, if Tide relaxes his vigilance because of the successful time stop, then the sudden appearance of Zero-Liner may have unexpected effects... For example, before Tide reacts, the person who has not been attacked will be Hana and Shingo, who were given watches by the alien knights, rescue them immediately!"
After speaking, Nogami Ryotaro asked Sakurai Yuuto and Gates:
"How? What do you think of this solution?"
Sakurai Yuto thought for a while, nodded and said:
"I think it's feasible."
"I think it's okay too."
Gates agreed.
As a result, the problem of time stopping was successfully solved.
Then there is Tiede's ability to "mental control".
In this regard, Sakurai Yuto’s suggestions are:
"According to Tid's design, I think that as long as we don't meet the eye that appears on the back of his hand, we should be able to avoid being affected by his ability."
Gates thought for a while and replied slowly:
"I know, I will pay attention during the battle."
"Um."
Sakurai Yuto and Gates looked at each other, and then nodded, which was not only an answer to Gates' words, but also a way of revealing the previous matter.
Gates secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile slightly.
Then there is the issue of settling Shingo Kukunaga and Hana in the [present] after they travel back to the [past]...
It stands to reason that in this different world, there should be no place more suitable for them than Den-Liner.
However, both Hana and Kuunaga Shingo have a hidden danger that will break out at some point, and that is... the seeds of "mind control" have been planted in them by Teide.
Therefore, the three of them thought for a long time, and finally came up with a solution that was not a solution.
——Use coma to avoid the outbreak of Tiede's "mind control" seeds.
Thinking like this, the three people's eyes involuntarily turned to the table where Hana and Kuunaga Shingo were eating...
Then, the three of them stood up at the same time.
But immediately, Nogami Ryotaro was pushed back to his seat by Sakurai Yuto.
Ryotaro Nogami: "..."
Nogami Ryotaro sat in his seat and watched Sakurai Yuto and Gates walk to the counter and began to discuss quietly with Naomi.
Although he couldn't hear their conversation, Nogami Ryotaro could still guess the key points of their discussion.
It’s nothing more than words like “coffee”, “drink” and “sleep”…
Tsk.
Good children must not learn.
