==Summary==
Masamune Dan (檀 正宗 Dan Masamune) was the first CEO of Genm Corp. and the father of Kuroto Dan. He was imprisoned for a period of time after being framed for starting Zero Day by his son. In reality, he had been manipulating a series of events leading to his son's creation of Kamen Rider Chronicle, which he planned to "claim" for his own agenda.
Upon being released from jail after Kuroto was discovered, Masamune immediately resumed his position as the CEO of Genm Corp. and entered the fray of the Riders and Bugsters using the Kamen Rider Chronicle Gashat with the Gashacon Bugvisor II to transform into Kamen Rider Cronus (仮面ライダークロノス Kamen Raidā Kuronosu).

|-|Bugster Powers=Inorganic Physiology (Type 2; Bugsters body are made of data and such doesn't have any organic parts), Body Control (Bugsters could turn into a mass of data to avoid attacks or escape), Immortality (Type 1, 3, 4, 6, 8), Regeneration (Mid-Godly; Bugsters can revive from their own deaths, after which the body and data vanish. Computer data is what makes up their body and mind, which means they can survive a complete destuction of their existence. If a Bugster is killed or before gaining a stable body, they can be absorbed and preserved into a Gashacon Bugvisor in a form of data, as an efficient way to preserve their data for other uses), Reactive Evolution and Accelerated Development (Other; Physical Statistics and Abilities; Bugsters become stronger and evolve every time they die, similar to how viruses mutate and adapt to man-made vaccines. When respawned, Bugsters can also "Level Up" like game characters, in a similar manner of the mutation of general viruses to survive vaccines. Some of the previously defeated Bugster even come back at a higher level than before. In fact, the Bugsters increasing powers necessitates the Riders having to find stronger upgrades for themselves. Developed the Reset ability out of his sheer rage to counter Hyper Muteki's invincibility), Possession (They're essentially parasites (or rather parasitoids, given they're lethal to their hosts) that infect their host and grow inside them as a virus until their infection reaches a certain point, causing them to turn into a "Bugster Union". The virus evolves to the point where they can possess their victim instead of forming a Bugster Union. When Kamen Rider Chronicle comes into play, it seems to have evolved again: each Bugster no longer has a single host but rather a group of Ride Players, with even Perfect Bugsters now infecting multiple hosts), Data Manipulation (Like Bugster, he can enter Game World, and retrieve the data of patients, who had been taken over completely by the virus by inserting the respective Proto Gashat used to infect them into the Buggle Driver II. He can wipe out the revived data as well), Teleportation (Can teleport himself for simple travel or evade incoming assaults), Disease Manipulation, Data Manipulation, Status Effect Inducement and Existence Erasure (Can infect people with Bugster virus, if the virus is not stopped within time limit, the patient will instantly die with their body completely vanish), Resistance Negation (He can spread the Gamedeus Virus, which can infect the Bugster, who are said to be impossible to infect), Biological Manipulation and Transmutation (The Gamedeus Virus can turn people into Bugsters), Resistance to Disease Manipulation, Resistance Negation, Data Manipulation, Status Effect Inducement and Existence Erasure (He is immune to every strain of virus ever due to being the first patients of Game Disease before Zero Day, including diseases that are different from normal ones), Biological Manipulation and Transmutation (He is unaffected by the Gamedeus Virus turning people into Bugster Virus), Time Stop (Gamedeus himself is immune to Cronus' Pause ability, similar to Hyper Muteki), Paralysis Inducement (Paralysis cannot affected Bugster), Immunity to Soul Manipulation (He's a Bugster, an Video Game Virus made out of data, and lacking of soul)

Furthermore, by activating closing and pulling the lever, Cronus can activate a special move that boosts AP significantly), Information Analysis (Cronus’s React Signal allows him to capture and identify surrounding moving bodies and automatically sets tracking markers. The radar map on the internal monitor shows the captured enemies, allies, and the positions of energy items.
