The National Public Safety Commissions Committee, Local Human Disasters, Special Cases, Special Measures Office, also known as the Hero Headquarters. At the Victory Sentai Victor Ranger secret base, the leader, Kurenai Retto, also known as Red, was holding his head in his hands.
「Uoooo! Even King Victory has been stolen! This time, my life as a hero is over!」
He had been on a losing streak for a while now, and now that he had finally lost his trump card, the giant robot, he no longer had any sense of honor. In a secret base with no one but himself, Retto flailed around on the floor like a prawn that had been caught.
Just then, the door to the secret base was opened and a woman entered the room. She looked down at Retto lying on the floor and was shocked.
Retto who noticed this greeted her cheerfully in the shrimp posture.
「Good morning, Asaka-san!」
「What’s with that appearance?」
The woman in the tightly fitted pants suit was Samejima Asaka, the assistant to the Director. However, as far as Retto knows, she is currently suspended for failing to “take custody” of the fanged shark mysterious being, Samegaro, during Death Green’s attack.
「Asaka-san, you’ve been released from your suspension, thank goodness! So what can I do for you today?」
「It’s a personnel change.」
A personnel change was the last thing Retto wanted to hear right now.
「It’s finally here! Asaka-san, where am I going to be transferred to? Is it Abashiri? Is it Hateruma Island? Or to the Antarctic base?」
He clung to Asaka’s leg with a pale face.
「Please settle down. This personnel change is for me.」
「…………Heh?」
In contrast to the silly voice of Tetsuhito, Asaka wore a very cool, pure white jacket. On her chest, there was an embroidered V symbol, signifying victory.
「Samejima Asaka has been appointed as the commander of the Victory Sentai Victor Ranger of Tokyo Headquarters as of this date!」
「What did you sayyy!?」
It was an unexpected report for Retto.
With the removal of Commander Onuki, the command of the Victor Ranger was placed in the hands of the Strategic Planning Office, which in turn sent over Samejima Asaka.
After the attack on the underground detention facility by Death Green, the Strategic Planning Staff, who had been accused of incompetence, were eager to clear their names. Finally, they mobilized all the heroes in the Tokyo Saitama area to carry out the “Death Green Elimination Plan”.
However, as we all know, 70% of the heroes in charge of the Tokyo-Saitama area were sent to the hospital, and the giant robots were all taken by the enemy, resulting in unprecedented damage.
As a result, the Chief of Staff and many other senior officers were forced to resign, and the original function of the hero headquarters was completely paralyzed.
The Hero Headquarters is currently undergoing personnel restructuring at a rapid pace, and they have to use whatever they can. They no longer have the luxury of letting people play around with suspension.
「That’s why I was chosen to be the commander. I would also like you to continue as the leader of the Victorious Rangers. At any rate, we have no one who can move.」
「Asaka-san……! Asaka-saaaaaaan!!!」
Retto, who could not sleep at night because he was worried about his own future, was so overcome with emotion that he hugged the new commander Asaka.
「I can’t breath, Mr. Kurenai.」
「Oooh, I’m sorry! I’m the type of person that when I’m happy, it’s shown through in my body!」
「I would be grateful if you could change it. Then, I would like to ask for your continued support as the Victor Ranger commander.」
「Yoroshiku, Ms. Asaka! However, even though it’s Victor Ranger, I’m the only one in it right now …!」
Asaka showed a picture to Retto, who looked anxious and furrowed his brow.
「Asaka-san, look here.」
「Th- This guy is… Could it be…!?」
Retto knew the person in the photo well. No, there are probably no people in the hero business who don’t know who the woman is.
「There are very few people who can fight in Hero Headquarters right now. That’s why we’ve decided to take special measures. She is a student of the Hero School who is scheduled to graduate next February, and we will invite her to become a Victor Ranger in the name of on-the-job training.」
「Just because of that…… Of all things, that girl……!?」
「Are you worried that she’s not strong enough?」
Asaka asked as if to say, “You know the answer, don’t you?”. As if to respond, Retto looked at the face of the girl in the photo and smirked.
「No, me and her can take down Death Green for sure!」
……………….
………….
…….
That night, there was a strange phenomenon on the border between Gunma and Saitama.
The sound of explosions tearing wildly through the darkness of the night, headlights covering the roadway. Nearly 100 modified motorcycles were gathered, and those wearing Kamikaze uniforms were overflowing with anger. Their faces, illuminated by countless headlights, looked like gray wolves, bats, or deer.
「Our time has finally come! Now is the time when the heroes are gone! We, the “Kita-Kanto Mysterious being Federation,” will take Saitama for the first time!」
「「「Uooooooooooooooo!!」」」
「You guys follow me!」
「「「Let’s fight koraa!!!」」」
Under the command of their leader, a werewolf, the mysterious beings accelerate one after another. The army of steel horsemen turned into a huge wave and rode through the dark mountain roads.
They will soon see the lights of Saitama. “Then we’ll have as much fun as we want,” the mysterious beings said, breathing heavily.
At that moment.
The headlight of the motorcycle in front of them illuminated the shadow of a woman.
「Oraoraa! Get out of the way, koraaaaaa!」
It was a girl of high school age, who did not look out of place on a mountain road at night. Even though there were no streetlights, she was wearing a pitch-black jacket.
In contrast to her black clothes that melted into the darkness, her silvery-white hair glistened in the headlights.
「I’m really gonna run you over, koraaaaa!」
「I don’t give a damn! Run her over, koraaaaa!」
More than 100 motorcycles and the mysterious beings riding them were closing in on the woman.
None of the mysterious beings could have suspected the tragedy that would occur in a few seconds.
–But….
「……Victory Change.」
Just when it seemed that the first motorcycle would finally make contact with the woman’s body, a black light enveloped her entire body.
The next moment, more than a dozen motorcycles in the lead group exploded and scattered simultaneously. One by one, the following vehicles burst into flames and were reduced to scrap.
The black warrior used her pitch-black sword to slash the approaching biker mysterious beings along with their motorcycle. The V of victory and the glittering blade glitter in the darkness.
It looked like a black butterfly fluttering in the air.
「Ugyaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!」
The last of the vehicles was chopped into pieces as it ran, staining the dark night red.
When there was no one left standing, the jet-black warrior quietly placed his sword in its sheath. And then, said a name that no one heard anymore.
「The black light that cuts through the darkness, Victor Black……」
The V of victory was shining black in the moonlight.
