Chapter 536
The Revived Thunder Power, Cure Peace!
“I won’t let you hurt him!”
Facing a threat that could easily take her life at this moment, Yayoi’s determination kept her from stepping back!
“Even if you say so, what difference does it make?” No matter how righteous Yayoi appeared now, Witch Lina found it amusing.
Since you can’t transform right now, doesn’t that mean you can do nothing?
“You talk big, but your legs are still trembling,” Witch Lina said, pointing out the girl’s weakness. Holding two magic bullets in one hand, she raised the other to cover her lips, letting out her signature “Hoo hoo hoo~” evil laugh.
“After all, whether as Pretty Cure or now, you’re just a coward trying to act tough!”
“How can such a you stop me?”
At this moment, mocking her foe, Witch Lina sensed something unusual. She neither looked down nor cried out in sadness like before.
“I…”
With gritted teeth, Yayoi faced the enemy, stifling her tears and forcing them not to fall. Her body trembled uncontrollably with each suppressed sob.
“I… I am… Not a coward anymore!” Her weak voice emerged as Yayoi clenched her fists, tears brimming in her eyes, she roared from the depths of her heart.
Yayoi shouted hoarsely, her voice squeezing out of her throat, surging powerfully as if breaking through dark clouds.
“I! Yayoi Yellow will fight to protect my friend’s smiles!”
“Tsk, if you want to protect him so badly!” The alarm sounded in her mind, bringing an ominous feeling as Witch Lina, agitated, threw both magic bullets at Yayoi.
“Then perish with him!”
Being able to annihilate both Pretty Cure and Kamen Rider in one go, hehe, and those embarrassing Red Demon and Wolfrun! The grand image of a powerful officer should be shown by me!
As the desperate moment came when the enemy was about to deliver a final blow, Yayoi spoke lines meant to sound cool, yet her heart contained no ideal hero’s image.
Only a little girl standing up to protect her companions.
“That’s why I won’t let you hurt him! Hurt one of my most important friends!”
Grasping the Smile Compact tightly, the girl lifted it to her chest, her usually gentle face burning with determined courage. Shutting her eyes and raising her pure white neck, Yayoi mustered every last ounce of strength to shout those decisive words!
“PrecureSmileChange!”
The magic bullet, brimming with magical force, mercilessly engulfed Yayoi, yet at precisely this moment, her voice broke through, and the pitch-black aura within the transformation device vanished as swiftly as darkness encountering sunlight.
A golden lightning bolt, carrying pure elemental power, pierced through the clouds above, striking Yayoi center on.
“[Go! Go! Let’s go Peace]!”
The massive explosion caused by the collision between the lightning and magic bullet forced even Witch Lina to cover her eyes. Amidst the chaotic sounds of explosions, a vibrant figure emerged, stepping onto golden light and electricity from the lightning.
“Thunder~ Par!”
Lowering the shimmering pink sponge, golden electricity originating from the heart-shaped emblem on her chest transformed into a full-body armor. The soft twin-tails transformed abruptly into a peculiar half-palm leaf hairstyle.
“Gleaming and sparkling, Rock paper scissors —— [CurePeace] (Peace Angel)!
Rolling her fist like playing rock-paper-scissors, she gestured “paper” towards an invisible camera, deflecting yet another magic bullet.
The magic bullet landed behind CurePeace, who performed the “scissors” gesture with her hands, causing her back to burst into flames and create a fiery explosion!
Transformation complete!
Power, warm power, fierce power, the ability to alter fate with lightning, returns!
“I… really did transform!”
Suddenly remembering the injured Ash pinned under steel, Yayoi’s widened pupils startled Witch Lina, but when she looked again, Yayoi was nowhere to be seen, only sparks trailing from her and the swift rush of lightning approaching.
“Haaahh—”
Just as Ash might shed tears seeing such unorganized attacks, Yayoi, who once feared thunder, now filled her body with electric current, stimulating her cells and unleashing speed-of-light power!
Her heart was not just focused on defeating the enemy; she wanted to vent her grief and anger too. Tears brimming, Yayoi disregarded her own condition and unleashed a barrage of lightning-powered punches at the foe.
“You dare! You dared to— with Mr. Ash!” Thinking of Ash whose fate was unknown, she ignored the continuous rumbling of thunder and the stinging pain from lightning across her body. Her gentle face contorted with rage, leaving trails of ghostly images as she brandished her wristbands and boots ever faster.
The seemingly weak have hearts hotter than most, especially after Ash apologized, saved her twice, and fulfilled her wishes. This mysterious villain had become an irreplaceable friend in her heart.
“I became his friend, finally after much effort!”
It wasn’t about being kicked by Light anymore; Witch Lina was utterly pounded, her graceful form covered in punch marks, her body beaten into shreds like a tattered rag. Her wide-open mouth couldn’t even form words.
Like a comet trailing lightning, Witch Lina was blasted backward, beyond the capability of human eyes to track, leaving only burnt traces and flashes of lightning.
“We became like a trustworthy important person… just like in a manga!”
“I was about to rely on him!”
Still pouring out her emotions with no mercy, the more she spoke, the closer Yayoi came to tears from her own words.
“How dare you! How dare you— Mr. Ash!”
As Yayoi recalled fragments of memories with Ash, each memory spurring her power, suddenly Ash’s voice interrupted the reverie.
“Don’t call me dead yet!”
