But well, Negishi is a fodder Worm, he's nobody in fighting capabilities, so he'd die that easily like other fodder Worms did, and like Souji Kusakabe himself which is a Native. And that's probably why the sacrifice is nonsense too here; fodder Native like Negishi wouldn't have stood a chance against the Riders like Dark Kabuto.

I think Kusakabe wanted his revenge to be his last act since it was the only thing motivating him. After being abandoned by Hiyori, there was nothing left in the world to give him a reason to stay and that's why he decided to entrust the world and Hiyori to Tendo. It's like the opposite of a human living on in a Worm, with Kusakabe choosing to live on in Tendo who could have the future he was denied.
