Digimon: I reached the top using the Knight item.

Immediately afterwards, an invisible sonic boom exploded in its ears, making it dizzy and screaming!

The telekinetic power that had just erupted was abruptly interrupted by this sudden and heavy blow!

Before Aries could recover from the severe headache...

With the powerful thrust of [Ice Speed ​​Wings], Bai Yu had already rushed in front of Bai Yang Beast.

"I'll let you shoot me with your bow!" Bai Yu's icy voice rang in the Aries Beast's ears.

The Ice Tiger Claws extending from Bai Yu's forearm armor flashed with a cold light, and the right claw viciously dug towards Bai Yang Beast's eye socket!

puff!

A muffled thud that made your teeth ache!

White Feather's claws cleanly pierced and gouged out the Aries Beast's right eye!

"Aaaaaahh ...

A heart-wrenching scream instantly echoed throughout the ravaged commercial street.

Before the heart-wrenching screams had completely faded from the chaotic commercial street, Bai Yu moved again.

He gave Aries Beast no chance to catch its breath, and the [Ice Tiger Claws] that gleamed with a chilling light went straight for Aries Beast's only remaining left eye!

"what!"

Another agonizing sound of flesh being torn apart.

The Aries Beast's screams grew even sharper, its mournful howls echoing throughout the area. This time, its cries were filled with utter despair.

The world was plunged into eternal darkness, and its eyes were blinded. It, who was known for its accurate archery, was now completely blind.

"Damn it! You bastard! Ah!"

The Aries Beast howled in agony and cursed wildly as it haphazardly raised its precious bow and fired energy arrows indiscriminately in all directions!

call out!call out!call out!

The light arrows streaked erratically through the air, bombarding the surrounding ruins without any strategy.

However, this frenzied attack had no effect on the instigator.

Bai Yu retrieved the [Ice Pattern Three-Section Treasure Staff] that had been thrown.

The familiar touch of the cool staff made Bai Yu weigh it in his hand, then looked at the white sheep beast that was still struggling in vain.

"You've had enough fun, now it's time to send you on your final journey."

Bai Yu's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly pierced through the booming explosion and reached Bai Yang Shou's ears.

These calm words were nothing short of a death sentence for the Aries, who was consumed by rage and fear.

Bai Yu held the [Ice Pattern Three-Section Treasure Staff] high in the air.

A large amount of energy converged into the staff, and the ice crack patterns and purple tiger stripes engraved on the staff lit up one by one. A visible, bone-chilling cold emanated from the staff, and the temperature of the surrounding air suddenly dropped.

At the same time, an invisible force of wind pressure surged wildly around the long staff, emitting a low whooshing sound.

The next second, the [Ice Pattern Three-Section Treasure Staff], imbued with the power of ice and wind, slammed heavily into the Aries Beast!

"clang!"

A dull thud.

The moment the long staff touched the Aries Beast's body, the accumulated chill suddenly exploded. Before the Aries Beast could even let out a scream, its entire body was covered by a thick layer of solid ice at a visible speed, completely transforming into a lifelike ice sculpture.

Immediately afterwards, another force accumulated on the stick—the violent wind pressure—exploded!

Click—!

A crisp cracking sound rang out.

A tiny crack first appeared on the ice sculpture, and then, like a spider web, the cracks instantly covered the entire surface.

boom!

The entire ice sculpture suddenly shattered into pieces.

A beam of data light rose from the shattered ice and hovered in the air.

Bai Yu immediately flipped his hand and took out a blank watch face.

"Buzz!"

All the data points seemed to be drawn in, turning into a torrent that was sucked into the dial.

Accompanied by a crisp electronic sound, the appearance of the blank dial quickly changed, eventually settling into a brand-new dial with a main color scheme of pure white and dark purple, accented with red.

The Aries watch face has arrived.

The long-running battle has finally come to an end.

Bai Yu put the newly acquired watch back into the system space, gently shook his wrist, and then deactivated the transformation.

As he moved, his armor dissipated into a stream of data, and the swollen fog quickly dissipated as well, revealing the horrific scene below, as if it had been bombed.

As the ice fog completely dissipated, Qi Ren was the first to see Bai Yu's figure.

His tense little face instantly relaxed, and he waved his arms happily.

"I told you! Bai Yu will definitely win!"

Seeing this, Kenryo and Ruki, who were standing nearby, both breathed a sigh of relief, their hearts finally at ease.

Bai Yu strode up to the three of them and glanced at them and their respective Digimon partners.

"How are you all?"

Liu Ji frowned slightly, wiping the dust from her cheeks with the back of her hand, cleaning the grime from her face.

That being said, their situation wasn't exactly good.

Groudon, Gargomon, and Nine-Tailed Monk have all reverted to their original forms: Guilmon, Terriermon, and Renamon.

The three little guys all had some injuries and looked listless, clearly having expended a lot of energy in the battle where they were crushed by the Aries Beast.

Jianliang looked around and saw that the once bustling commercial street was now completely unrecognizable.

The ground was riddled with grotesque craters and cracks, and the giant crater in the very center, created by Bai Yu's final blow, was particularly terrifying.

The shops and buildings on both sides of the street were all destroyed, reduced to ruins, with broken steel, cement and glass shards everywhere.

"The destructive power of this battle... was immense; this entire street... was destroyed."

Jianliang's voice was somewhat dry.

Kei and Ryuki also silently gazed at the ruins.

This was indeed the most devastating battle they had ever experienced.

Although the Abyss Beast's attack was powerful, it was ultimately stopped by Bai Yu, and thanks to the existence of that special alternate dimension, the actual damage it caused to the real world was quite limited.

But this time, the battle actually took place on the streets of the city center.

Hearing Jianliang's words, Bai Yu's expression did not change at all. He simply said to the three of them in an almost cold tone, "Just accept it. This kind of situation may happen again in the future."

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured on the hearts of the three young men and women.

Qi Ren lowered his head, and Liu Ji bit her lip, remaining silent.

They all knew that Bai Yu was right.

Where Digimon appear is not something they can control, which also means that they do not choose the battlefield.

Seeing that the three of them were not very enthusiastic, Bai Yu didn't say anything to comfort them.

"Alright, stop thinking about this."

"Call Chief Yamaki and tell him the enemy has been dealt with. Tell him to send people over to clean up the battlefield as soon as possible."

“Hmm.” Jianliang nodded, knowing that now was not the time to be discouraged.

He took out his phone from his pocket and skillfully dialed Yamaki Mitsuhiro's number.

While Jianliang was reporting the situation over the phone, Baiyu was tallying up her gains from this trip.

Without a doubt, the gains from this trip were enormous.

The twelve divine generals defeated Minotaur and Ariesmon in one go. Including the previous Flying Tigermon, Royal Serpentmon, and Iron Chickenmon, the collection progress has reached five.

In the system space, five uniquely designed watch faces lay quietly.

However, the biggest gain this time was not these two divine general dials.

Instead, it was an enhancement item made from the flame that had been forcibly intercepted by the Minotaur, which had emanated from its body.

Based on what Ariesmon had said, Baiyu could be fairly certain that the flame was the flame of Suzakumon, which had been bestowed upon Bullmon.

As for its function, combined with the surging life force on the flames, it should be able to save the Digimon's life or even allow them to be reborn, since Suzaku represents Nirvana.

This isn't just Bai Yu making wild guesses. In the original storyline, after the Minotaur was killed, it was resurrected in another place.

The bull beast certainly doesn't have the ability to come back to life.

It now appears that the Bull Beast was able to revive thanks to this wisp of flame, imbued with surging vitality, bestowed upon it by the Vermilion Bird Beast.

With Jianliang finishing his call, there was nothing more for them to do.

The cleanup was left to Mitsuo Yamaki, and Shiraha and his group left.

.....

As night falls, the city's hustle and bustle fades away, giving way to tranquility.

On a quiet residential path, the dim yellow light from the streetlights cast a long, thin shadow of the girl.

Xiao Guang walked home alone, humming an off-key tune, feeling quite cheerful.

She had a great time with her friends today, and they even made plans to go see a newly released movie together next week.

A cool night breeze brushed her cheeks and ruffled her soft hair; everything seemed so peaceful and serene.

She walked past a row of neatly trimmed green belts, then turned a corner, and she could see the lights of her own home.

Just then, a dark figure silently followed her from behind.

The figure moved so quickly that it didn't even make a sound.

Xiao Guang was completely unaware of the impending danger, continuing to hum a song and walking briskly.

The next instant, a hand struck her neck with precision and force.

"Well!"

Guang only managed to let out a short, muffled groan before everything went black, his body instantly losing all strength and collapsing limply downwards.

The attacker caught her limp body steadily, without letting her make a sound as she fell.

He swept the girl up in his arms, the whole process was smooth and quick, without the slightest hesitation.

This is a man who keeps himself very private.

He wore a black trench coat, black pants, a hat that covered most of his face, and a large face mask.

Only his eyes were visible.

Those were eyes that looked particularly somber in the darkness.

If Shiraha or Kenryo were here, they might recognize the owner of these eyes.

Oikawa Yukio.

Chapter 118: I really want to kill you right now!

The night was as dark as ink, swallowing up all the noise and extravagance of the city.

Yukio Oikawa carried the unconscious girl in his arms as he walked through a quiet, deserted alley.

He bypassed all the surveillance cameras, and finally stopped in front of a long-abandoned, unfinished building.

The place is overgrown with weeds, and vines climb all over the dilapidated walls. The dark windows look like the gaping maws of monsters, exuding an aura of decay and coldness.

Without hesitation, Yukio Oikawa walked in, passed through the hall full of rubble and garbage, and came to a relatively empty corner.

He placed Xiaoguang on the cold cement floor.
