==Synopsis==
Emu Hojo and Parado are challenged to play New Kuroto Dan's game Nazo Toki Labyrinth! In this super-cooperative play they need to solve the mystery hidden in the labyrinth and rescue the captured Poppy! Can they do it?!
And how this plot will be linked to Kamen Rider Ex-Aid Trilogy: Another Ending?! http://www.toei.co.jp/tv/ex-aid/story/1210415_2606.html
==Plot==
After Parado successfully cleared the Mighty Action X's final boss Count Salty, Kuroto (seen imprisoned through a tablet) provokes both him and Emu into playing his new game Nazo Toki Labyrinth, a mystery game where players solve riddles and mysteries in a mansion to rescue Poppy Pipopapo.
After taking Kuroto's offer (after being accused of being afraid they couldn't beat it), Emu and Parado found themselves equipped with Gamer Drivers and a blank Gashat for each. The two went separate ways to determine who will solve the mysteries faster and encounter different mystery rooms where they solve the first two riddles:
*Emu enters one with the sun logo and finds three portraits of Genm Corp.'s former presidents, Masamune Dan, Kuroto Dan, and Ren Amagasaki. The Bugsters, including Ren Amagasaki, are creations of Kuroto and he himself is the son of Masamune Dan, with said word being a homonym to the word sun in English.
*Parado enters one with the crescent moon logo and finds portraits of Ex-Aid and Para-DX Level 99 and the CR logo. Level can also be read as separately as a pun of the Japanese word for , referring to CR.
Exiting their respective rooms, they finally regroup to solve the last mystery in the form of a star-labelled room. The final riddle unveils itself as the Hatena Bugster. Though finding themselves incapable of using the blank Gashats, Emu and Parado's gratitude towards each other brings forth the Knock Out Fighter 2 Gashat as they use it and transform into Ex-Aid and Para-DX Level 39. However, Hatena is immune to their attacks, and he reminds them that force can't win a puzzle game. Remembering their previous riddles and their thanks, and noting the numbers printed all over Hatena, the two solve the third and final riddle by punching the numbers 3 ("san") and 9 ("kyu"), making up the wordplay (hononym for "Thank you") as Hatena congratulates them for winning, exploding.
With the fight over, the two stumble upon an empty room and immediately win the game despite Poppy being nowhere to be found. As they exit the game, Poppy reprimands them for leaving her behind before quickly assuming that Kuroto was testing their bonds. Before they can properly thank the Game Master for creating a game that actually brings smiles to those playing it, however, the three are shocked to discover that Kuroto has somehow escaped his cell…

**The only Hyper Battle series to become a bridge connection from the ending of the series to the V-Cinema of the series
***The true ending of Ex-Aid is the movie as it takes time after the series itself has ended
***This makes Ex-Aid to be the only one with Hyper Battle to be a continuation after the movie as Build's Prime Rogue Hyper Battle would take directly during an episode after Kamen Rider Rogue's redemption.
