Digimon: I reached the top using the Knight item.

The fox spirit immediately said to Bai Yu, "That person is Ichijouji Ken's older brother."

Previously at Ichijouji Ken's house, Youkomon saw Ichijouji Ken address this person as "older brother," but this older brother's attitude towards his younger brother was not very good.

Bai Yu had only glanced at it casually and hadn't paid much attention to it.

But then, as if he had suddenly remembered something, he stared intently at the figure's back.

Kenichi Ichijouji's older brother! Tomo Ichijouji!

In the anime, the plot about this character is pitifully small, but it is crucial!

His only plot point is that, driven by jealousy, he tries to steal the sacred plan from Ken Ichijoji!

Bai Yu stared at Ichijoji Tomo's retreating figure, his mind racing. After a moment, he made a decisive decision.

"Come on, follow him!"

As soon as Bai Yu finished speaking, Taiyi, who was standing next to him, was stunned, his face full of confusion.

"What's wrong? You've changed your target already?" Taiyi asked.

The fox spirit also asked, "Is there something wrong with this person?"

In the eyes of the fox spirit, the boy named Ichijoji Tomo was just an ordinary human, with nothing particularly noteworthy about him.

Bai Yu nodded, but her tone carried a hint of uncertainty: "Although I can't be completely sure, it's possible."

Bai Yu never speaks too definitively.

After all, there's a saying that goes, "A person's character is slightly flawed, and their actions are somewhat ineffective."

In reality, nothing in this world is 100%.

Therefore, when Shiraha decided to pursue Ichijoji Tomo, he also sent a message to Yamaki Mitsuo.

The sky was gradually darkening, and the streetlights along the roadside were lit, draping the city in a hazy night.

Bai Yu and his group followed Ichijoji Tomo at a distance that was neither too close nor too far.

As Ichijoji Tomo walked, the route became increasingly remote, moving away from the bustling streets and turning into dimly lit alleys.

Finally, Ichijoji Tomo stopped in front of a somewhat dilapidated two-story building, looked around to make sure no one was there, and then went upstairs.

Having seen this, Bai Yu was basically certain of what had happened.

Just as Bai Yu and the others quietly approached the small building, the fox spirit's expression suddenly changed.

"I can sense the presence of a Digimon!"

As soon as the fox beast finished speaking, its body instantly transformed into a blur, leaping up abruptly!

"boom!"

A window on the second floor was smashed by the fox demon's body, and glass shards flew everywhere.

Seeing this, Bai Yu immediately shouted, "Go, hurry up!"

Bai Yu, Taiyi, and Gu Le Shou, hurry upstairs!

Chapter 47: There's no way you can save her!

On the second floor, Ichijoji Tomo pushed open the door and went inside.

Inside the room, a Digimon immediately turned around; it was IceDevimon.

"Why did you take so long to arrive?" The ice demon beast's tone carried a hint of impatience. "Quickly, heal me."

Looking at the injuries on the Ice Demon Beast, a cold glint flashed in Ichijouji Tomo's eyes: "How did you get injured?"

Upon hearing this, the Ice Demon Beast's expression instantly twisted. It recalled Bai Yu's hateful face and said with hatred, "He was injured by a damned brat."

Ichijoji Tomo's lips curled into an undisguised sneer: "You really are a piece of trash. You can't beat one of them, and you still can't beat another one."

The ice monster's rage was instantly ignited, and it roared, "I'm your partner!"

"A partner, right?" Ichijoji Tomo's expression suddenly became excited.

He raised his hand and pointed to the unconscious figure on the bed behind the Ice Demon Beast.

"Then you do as I say and kill that woman right now!"

Lying on the bed was none other than Ruhime.

The Ice Demon Beast flatly refused: "That won't do. I've already said I need to study this brat."

The agitation on Ichijoji Tomo's face quickly faded, and he regained his composure.

He pushed up his glasses and gave a cold laugh: "If you're not willing to listen to me, what kind of partners are we? At most, we're business partners, and the kind who can't stand each other."

After saying that, he ignored the Ice Demon Beast's reaction and walked to the workbench on the side.

On the workbench were two grinding mills and some strange devices.

One end of the device is connected to two computers via complex data cables, while the other end is connected to Ruki's arc laser machine.

The ice demon beast also looked at the workbench and asked, "How much longer will that take to calculate?"

Ichijoji Tomo took out the Sacred Plan from his pocket, connected it with a data cable, and replied, "Almost there, just a few more steps to complete the calculation."

The words had barely left his mouth.

"boom!"

A sharp sound of shattering glass rang out as the fox spirit smashed through the window and jumped inside.

Ichijoji Tomo and Ice Demon Beast both looked at Reijomon at the same time.

After landing, the fox beast quickly surveyed the room, and the next second, all its attention was drawn to the familiar figure on the bed.

"Liu Ji!"

The fox-like beast let out a cry and then charged towards the bedside.

"Who do we have here? A defeated underling dares to come knocking on our door." The Ice Demon Beast let out a cold snort, and with a swift movement, it blocked the Fox Beast's path.

The sharp claws, carrying a biting cold wind, slashed down at the fox-like beast.

The fox beast was forced to stop and nimbly leaped backward, narrowly dodging the attack.

"Fox Leaf Wedge!"

With a wave of its claws, the fox-like beast unleashed a torrent of gleaming leaves that swept towards the ice-evil beast like a storm.

"Your trick is useless against me!" The Ice Demon Beast spread its wings, and a strong cold current swept out, instantly freezing all the leaves in mid-air, and then turning them into ice crystals and shattering.

The next moment, the Ice Demon Beast flew swiftly to the front of the Fox Beast.

The fox spirit immediately crossed its arms in front of it.

The Ice Demon Beast punched the Fox Beast hard in both arms.

The fox beast grunted and flew backward, crashing heavily into the wall behind it with a dull thud.

GlacialDevilmon was injured, and Renamon was also injured; neither of them were at their peak. GlacialDevilmon was still stronger.

Just as the fox demon crashed into the wall, the room door was suddenly pushed open.

Bai Yu and Taiyi rushed in.

"We didn't make a mistake!" Taiichi's eyes lit up with excitement when he saw the scene inside the room, and his gaze was fixed on Ichijoji Tomo and Ice Demon Beast.

Bai Yu quickly noticed Ruki on the bed, and the fox spirit lying against the wall, struggling to get up.

Ichijoji Tomo's face turned extremely ugly. Looking at the two uninvited guests who had suddenly barged in, he asked, "Who are you?"

Bai Yu looked at him with a cold smile and said, "You can call me Master Chef for now."

Having said that, ignoring the bewildered expression on Ichijoji Tomo's face, he turned to the Ice Demon Beast and continued, "Tonight, you won't be leaving again, you piece of shit!"

With a thought, Bai Yu's [Evolution Belt] appeared at his waist.

"Henshin!"

He slammed both hands down on either side of the belt.

A flash of light erupted from the center of the belt.

Bai Yu instantly transformed.

[Digital Knight Evolution]! Reporting for duty!

When Ichijoji Tomo saw this transformation scene for the first time, his face was filled with surprise and disbelief.

Taiyi, standing next to Baiyu, was initially surprised, but then his eyes blazed with intense curiosity and interest.

As for the Ice Demon Beast, its expression turned extremely ugly the moment it saw Bai Yu.

Now, after seeing Bai Yu complete his transformation, that ugly expression turned into fear.

The next second, the Ice Demon Beast looked at Ichijouji Tomoya beside it and roared with all its might, "Quick! Quickly increase my strength..."

However, it hadn't finished speaking.

A silver afterimage instantly broke through the spatial distance and appeared in front of it.

The ice monster only had time to see a clenched fist rapidly enlarging in its pupils.

The next second, a fist landed squarely on its face.

"boom!"

The ice monster was instantly sent flying backward.

"Boom—!"

With a loud bang, a huge hole was smashed open in the side wall of the house, and bricks and dust flew everywhere.

Bai Yu's punch surprised both Ichijoji Tomo and Taiichi.

Taiyi muttered to himself, "It seems my idea won't come true."

Then, Ichijoji Tomo suddenly came to his senses.

He quickly grabbed the sacred plan from the workbench, rushed to the hole, raised the plan, and aimed it at the ice monster outside.

At this moment, the fox spirit stood up again and charged towards Ruki on the bed once more.

Upon seeing this, Ichijoji Tomo's face revealed a fierce and ruthless expression.

"Get out of my way!"

He roared and, without hesitation, changed the direction of the sacred plan, aiming it at the fox beast.

"You want to save her? No way!"

The moment the words fell, the Sacred Plan in Ichijoji Tomo's hand suddenly erupted with a black light that had nothing to do with divinity and was filled with evil and ominous energy!

The black light shot straight at the demon fox beast!

The fox beast managed to block it for a moment, but ultimately couldn't withstand the black light and was sent flying back, crashing into the wall once again!

Upon witnessing this scene, Taiyi's eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself, "This is the power of darkness!"

Chapter 48: Taichi Yagami, There's No Blood Feud Between Us

Outside the two-story building, the ice monster crawled out of the pit in a disheveled state.

Shaking his throbbing head, he looked up and saw Bai Yu radiating an intense sense of oppression.

Fear instantly seized its heart.

Run! We must run right now!

This thought occupied the entire mind of the ice demon beast.

It knew very well that it was no match for the creature in front of it.

Before the Ice Demon Beast could think, it flapped its wings and soared into the sky.

Once he flies high enough, this guy can't do anything to himself! After all, he can't fly!

The Ice Demon Beast knew this, and so did Bai Yu.

Watching the ice monster rapidly ascend, Bai Yu's movements did not falter in the slightest. He bent his knees, and the ground beneath his feet instantly cracked open with spiderweb-like fissures.
