"He... he really came back!"
"Incredible!"
Xu Jia looked around in amazement, his face filled with awe.
Just then, a small group of men in suits began walking toward him from not far away.
Xu Jia instinctively glanced at them and quickly grew cautious — they were all unfamiliar faces.
However, the approaching men immediately spoke up:
"Mr. Xu Jia, there's no need to be alarmed!"
"We're members of the Bureau of Paranormal Security!"
"Bureau of... Paranormal Security?"
Xu Jia paused for a moment, then recalled something.
Weren't they the same agency that helped Yuuto handle the transport of the Demon Serpent earlier?
"You guys are with the government?"
"Yes, yes, absolutely!"
The suited men hurriedly nodded and handed over their business cards and identification.
Once Xu Jia confirmed their credentials, their expressions turned serious as they got straight to the point.
"Mr. Xu, we're here today because we'd like to formally invite you to join the Bureau of Paranormal Security."
"Supernatural incidents are happening all over the world right now. No one knows when or where the next danger will strike."
"That's why we desperately need extraordinary individuals like yourself — people who possess supernatural powers — to join us."
"As for the Kaixa Driver's sandification side effect, we will do everything in our power to help you resolve it!"
Their tone was sincere — but deep down, they were filled with anxiety.
After all, with a powerful item like the Kaixa Driver, Xu Jia had no real reason to submit himself to the constraints of an organization.
Yet to their utter shock...
The moment they finished speaking, Xu Jia had already nodded and answered decisively:
"No need to say more — I'll join you!"
"...Huh?!"
They thought they misheard him. After confirming again, they were ecstatic!
"Yuuto said before…"
"These Rider Drivers exist for the sake of protection."
"So, as the current bearer of one, it's my responsibility to do my part."
Xu Jia smiled faintly.
Joining the government was something he had already considered. Ever since learning about the true spirit of Kamen Riders from Yuuto Kagami, he had made up his mind:
He would use Kaixa's power — to protect others!
And now, with the government even offering to help him find a solution to the sandification issue, it only reinforced his decision.
"That's wonderful news!"
"Thank you for joining us, Mr. Xu!"
The agents from the Bureau of Paranormal Security were overjoyed.
Meanwhile — in the White House of the Lighthouse Nation...
President Trumpett of the Lighthouse Nation had just finished work when he was urgently summoned.
He rushed in with a panicked expression.
"Colonel Mike! Don't tell me another monster's shown up?!"
Colonel Mike, however, looked extremely serious. He pulled out several photos and spread them across the table.
"Mr. President, please take a look at these."
"These were taken five minutes ago by a civilian — they show something on the Statue of Liberty."
"The Statue of Liberty?"
Trumpett's heart skipped a beat, fearing another monster attack near the monument.
He quickly grabbed the photos.
At first glance, he didn't notice anything unusual. But the next moment...
His eyes widened.
Atop the statue stood a shadowy, human-like figure.
"What is that?"
"A person?!"
"And that... that pink thing next to him — it looks like... a door?!"
Trumpett stared at the photo, baffled.
He couldn't make sense of what Colonel Mike was trying to show him.
At that moment, Colonel Mike explained:
"You saw correctly. That's a person standing next to a pink door."
"And this—" he gestured to a monitor, "—is satellite footage of the entire event."
Trumpett leaned in to watch.
And as he did, his expression turned from confusion to absolute shock.
"W-What the hell!"
"That door appeared out of nowhere on top of the statue—and then a man walked out from it?! And then they both vanished?!"
"How... how is that even possible?!"
He was so shaken he could barely form coherent sentences.
But Colonel Mike wasn't surprised by this reaction — he'd gone through the same thing earlier.
And this — was just the beginning.
"Mr. President," Colonel Mike said gravely, "there's more you need to know."
"That man is named Yuuto Kagami, and he's from Jiuzhou."
"And the pink door beside him is something known as the Anywhere Door. It possesses unbelievable power — it allows one to teleport freely anywhere in the solar system."
As he spoke, Colonel Mike laid out all the intelligence they had rapidly gathered.
"Yuuto Kagami."
"Devil Fruits. Rinnegan."
"Demon Serpent. Kamen Rider."
With several livestream clips playing in succession, President Trumpett felt like his scalp was about to explode.
His heart was pounding — as if it were about to leap out of his chest!
"Colonel Mike... are you sure all of this is real?" he asked after a long silence, his voice still shaky.
"Everything has been verified — not a single detail is fabricated," Colonel Mike confirmed firmly.
Hearing that, Trumpett sucked in a cold breath.
Then he couldn't help but ask:
"Then why didn't we hear anything about this Yuuto Kagami before?!"
Colonel Mike looked ashamed.
"Because the Jiuzhou government deliberately suppressed all information regarding this streamer, Yuuto Kagami. And since the livestreams were so over-the-top, our intelligence personnel dismissed them as special effects..."
"This is the first time he's appeared directly on our territory — that's the only reason we were able to confirm his abilities are real."
Hearing that, Trumpett almost coughed up blood on the spot.
If Yuuto Kagami hadn't randomly appeared here, would they have never found out about him?!
Taking a deep breath, he forcibly calmed himself.
"I don't care what happened before."
"From now on, we must fully mobilize to search for these supernatural relics!"
"And more importantly — find a way, any way, to contact this streamer Yuuto Kagami!"
"No matter the cost... we must recruit him to join the Lighthouse Nation!"
At that moment...
Colonel Mike added, "And if we fail to recruit him?"
"Fail...?"
Trumpett repeated the words slowly, then narrowed his eyes — a cold gleam flickering within them.
"Then we use everything we have to eliminate him."
And not just the Lighthouse Nation...
The scene of Yuuto Kagami appearing atop the Statue of Liberty via the Anywhere Door had already gone viral across the globe!
Countries like the Cherry Blossom Nation, the Stick Nation, and the Northern Bear Nation had all turned their attention to this mysterious streamer.
Each of them now vowed to recruit him — at any cost!
Meanwhile…
After ending his stream, Yuuto Kagami casually stepped through the Anywhere Door and returned home.
He had no idea that this simple teleportation had just thrown the entire world into a frenzy.
Curled up on the sofa, he began checking today's gains — and what he saw surprised him.
"So many science points today?!"
