-Aruto and Horobi's drivers produce an energy that transcends time and space, and the two disappear into a nebulous vortex.
-While Aruto was talking with his father, he went 'learning complete!' and figured out how to perform sorcery in order to bring back Izu and Jin.
-The Zero-Two Driver releases a beam of light that turns all humans and humagears into one singular bio-mechanical species.
-Everything from the start of episode 42 onward was all a simulation. (Don't act like this one can't happen!!)

Here's what I'm thinking going from the images here https://www.kamen-rider-official.com/summaries/52:

Horobi and Aruto's duel rages on, then we get a flashback scene of Aruto talking with Soreo Zea. And then Soreo says something like: "You're the only one, Zero-One." Horobi and Aruto then manage to knock each other off their transformations. Horobi shouts angrily at Aruto, to which Aruto responds with something like: "We're Kamen Riders, aren't we? Protecting our people's smiles?" And then his Ark-One driver is suddenly purified back into the Zero-One driver.

Horobi grabs Aruto by the collar, rejecting his conviction and kicking him away. Aruto then grasps the Rising Hopper key and begins to transform. Horobi transformed faster and throws a punch towards Aruto before being immediately blocked by Zero-One.

The two fight once more, this time taking it back outside. They both activate their finishers and Zero-One jumps, this will also be the first time that Aruto uses Giga Rise for his finisher. Horobi prepares for his finisher as well, but he is then contacted by Jin and Jin says something that causes Horobi to drop his guard, giving Aruto the opening to kick him and then explosion. The Zero-One suit then de-stabilizes and knock Aruto out of his transformation. Horobi, (with the damaged make up) falls to his knees. Maybe Aruto goes to him and talk before Horobi dies in his arms or Aruto succumbs to his wounds.
