Digimon: I reached the top using the Knight item.

The "abyss thruster" behind it exerted its power again, propelling Bai Yu out of the water and creating a huge wave.

Bai Yu flew in mid-air, his eyes scanning the shore, and immediately spotted Ah Hai who had just come ashore.

Bai Yu flew over quickly and landed steadily next to A Hai.

Upon seeing Bai Yu, A Hai was incredibly excited and began to describe the battle that had just taken place, gesturing wildly.

"Bai Yu! That big fish just now! Wow, it could even generate electricity! It almost electrocuted me, but..."

"But I still won in the end! You're such a useful gadget, your transformed power is amazing, I..."

"In the end, I just grabbed two knives, faced it, and swish, swish, swish! Then I unleashed a powerful attack and finished it off!"

Ah Hai was incredibly excited; this was the first time in his life he had done something so thrilling.

Fighting an electric "monster" in the ocean is a hundred times more exciting than catching the biggest fish!

He felt like he had inexhaustible energy, and every nerve was still throbbing excitedly from the battle.

Bai Yu listened quietly to Ahai's story without interrupting.

He could understand Ah Hai's feelings at that moment. For an ordinary person, the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction of gaining great power for the first time and personally defeating a powerful enemy is indescribable.

Actually, when he first transformed, his feelings and emotions were similar; the eldest brother understood the second brother.

However, when Bai Yu noticed that A Hai's hands were empty and he was not carrying anything.

Hmm? Empty-handed?

A thought flashed through Bai Yu's mind: He didn't take anything, so what about the data on that bat-eel beast?

I completely forgot to give them a blank dial!

This thought struck Bai Yu like a bolt from the blue, leaving him completely frozen in place.

He actually forgot something so important!

The data of a Digimon has been wasted!

Moreover, it was an armored vehicle!

This is the target in his "recipe"!

This is an absolute waste!

I've really messed up!

"Bai Yu, let me tell you, my last move, 'Assassination Shock - Cross Slash,' was absolutely awesome! An X-shaped beam of light shot out, and with a 'boom,' that guy was gone!"

Ahai was completely oblivious to Baiyu's change in mood, still immersed in his own moment of glory, sharing his joy of victory with great enthusiasm.

Bai Yu looked at him silently, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

However, Ah Hai can't be blamed for this, since he didn't know anything about it.

Ultimately, it was my own mistake.

It's all because we were so focused on allocating combat power that we forgot about the most crucial step: loot recovery.

Bai Yu sighed silently in his heart, forcibly suppressing the feeling of irritation.

Forget it, what's done is done, there's no point in dwelling on it anymore.

I guess I'll just have to consider it tuition. I absolutely must never make this kind of silly mistake again.

Just then, a loud crashing sound came from deep within the cave.

"boom--!"

Immediately afterwards, Qi Ren's voice came over: "Brother Bai Yu, Ah Hai, come here quickly!"

Bai Yu and A Hai exchanged a glance and quickly ran towards the source of the sound.

When the two arrived, they witnessed an incredibly violent scene.

Taiyi was repeatedly ramming the massive steel door with his shoulder.

It's obvious that this large iron gate can't be opened normally, otherwise they wouldn't have resorted to force.

The [Allosaurus Armor Mode] inherits Allosaurus's amazing leg strength and impact power, making it incredibly powerful and perfectly suited for rough work like "smashing doors".

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Under Taiyi's continuous and violent impacts, a large dent was visibly formed in the center of the heavy iron door.

Meanwhile, inside the research base behind the iron gate.

In a control room, a man is looking at a huge display screen in front of him.

The screen was showing live footage of Taiyi and his group violently breaking down the door.

When the man's gaze fell on Minami, a smile appeared on his lips.

"Heh, I failed to capture you, but you've delivered yourself right to my doorstep," the man muttered to himself.

"And these brats... they must be the so-called 'chosen children,' right? They're all my enemies too. Well, that'll save me the trouble of searching for them one by one. I can just take care of them all at once."

Immediately, the man reached out and pressed a button.

"Owner!"

A moment later, a Digimon came over and addressed the man as its master.

The man pointed at the screen and gave the order: "Go, take care of this group of guys."

Immediately afterwards, his finger precisely touched Minami's image, and his tone became serious: "Pay attention, I want this girl alive."

"As ordered."

The Digimon responded and then immediately turned around to do the job.

Inside the cave, in front of the large iron gate.

"Ha ha……"

Taiyi was panting heavily; the continuous, full-force impacts had taken a toll on his stamina.

He looked at the huge dent in the iron gate and felt that the time was ripe.

"It's time for the final blow."

Taiichi took a few steps back, then pressed the dial and drive on his waist, and then spun the drive sharply.

"The End Time!"

The cold, electronic sound effects echoed through the cave.

"Predatory Charge!"

Taiyi leaned forward, his legs bursting with immense power, and he charged at supersonic speed toward the dent in the iron gate!

"Boom—!"

With a deafening roar, the iron gate was successfully smashed open, leaving a large, irregular hole.

Before Taiyi could rejoice, a sharp whistle rang out, and several small missiles, trailing plumes of fire, shot towards him, heading straight for Taiyi, who had exhausted his strength and had no time to dodge.

At this critical moment, Bai Yu reacted quickly!

[A Symbiotic Barrier Between the Ice and the Ocean]!

Bai Yu manipulated the cold air and water flow, instantly creating a huge twin shield in front of Taiyi.

The inner layer is a solid, thick ice shield, while the outer layer is a water curtain that cushions the energy.

"Bang bang bang!"

A series of explosions rang out, and all the incoming small missiles were blocked by the "Ice Sea Twin Shields." The violent explosions created thick smoke that completely obscured everyone's view.

The next second, the "Ice Sea Twin Shield" shattered, but instead of dissipating, it transformed into countless sharp ice blades and high-pressure water arrows, which retaliated against the iron gate.

Bai Yu also possesses another ability in this current form.

【Sea Dragon Frost Smell: Can accurately lock onto enemies within 1 kilometer (including targets hidden in fog, ice, and water)】.

There are six enemies behind the door!

Behind the door, a large number of bubbles that were about to burst appeared, intercepting all the ice blades and water arrows that were thrown back, triggering another round of dense explosions.

After a while, once the smoke from the explosion had completely dissipated, K was finally able to see what was behind the door.

Behind the steel gate lies a modern base and six Digimon of various shapes and sizes.

Bai Yu glanced over and his eyes practically lit up.

They're all armored vehicles!

These are all precious "ingredients" needed for his recipe!

【Pteranodon: Armored Body, Pteranodon Type, Free/Data Species; Strength Rating: C-】

[Batmon: Armored Body, Mutant Type, Free/Data Species; Strength Rating: C-]

[Zepikmon: Armored Body, Demon Human Type, Free Type; Strength Rating: C-]

[Raincoat Beast: Armored Body, Ghost Type, Free/Virus Species; Strength Rating: C-]

[Deep Sea Beast: Armored Body, Aquatic Beast Humanoid, Free Type; Strength Rating: C-]

And standing at the very front, clearly the leader of this group, is the Digimon: [Baronmon: Armored Body, Demon Man Type, Free Type; Strength Rating: C-rank.]

"Wow...so many Digimon!" Akira swallowed unconsciously as he looked at the scene before him.

"There are so many enemies!" Ah Hai exclaimed in surprise.

Taiichi jumped back and retreated, creating a safe distance between himself and the group of Digimon.

He was still a little shaken; if Bai Yu hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been hit by a missile.

Chapter 75: You were having a good time hitting me just now!

"Hikari, Minami, hide in the back and be careful."

Bai Yu gave a word of instruction, then stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Taiyi.

Koushiro and Kai also got into their fighting stances, and Kaito followed with Guilmon.

Only the Wind Lion Beast remained guarding Minami and Hikari, growling warily.

Everyone was filled with fighting spirit, staring directly at the six armored Digimon of different shapes and sizes opposite them.

A major war is about to break out!

Bai Yu made the first move, and the "Ice Abyss Thruster" behind him suddenly shot out a stream of energy, propelling him at an extremely fast speed straight toward the toothless pterosaur beast in front of him.

The toothless pterosaur lives up to its name as the "Azure Bomber," as it flies very fast.

Faced with Bai Yu's sudden attack, it reacted extremely quickly, flapping its wings and gliding nimbly to the side, narrowly avoiding Bai Yu's sharp claws.

Just as Bai Yu missed his attack and was adjusting his posture, the deep-sea beast beside him moved.

Its mermaid-like tail slammed onto the ground, propelling its entire body upwards to block Bai Yu's path.

On the claw-like hand of a deep-sea beast, a deep blue energy ball rapidly condensed, swirling with water vapor, and roared as it smashed toward Bai Yu's chest!

Faced with this sudden interception and counterattack, Bai Yu stretched out his hand, arriving faster than anyone else, so fast that only a blur remained, and accurately grabbed the deep-sea beast's wrist.

"what?"

The deep-sea beast's pupils contracted, completely unprepared for its ambush to be intercepted so easily.

The next second, a tremendous force came from Bai Yu's arm.

"Get over here!"

Bai Yu exerted force from his waist and swung his arm violently, actually using the rather large deep-sea beast as a chain ball and flinging it away!

The deep-sea monster traced a parabola in the air and crashed to the ground with a bang.

It fell right next to the raincoat beast.

At this moment, the raincoat beast wearing a huge straw hat was swinging its two fists, attacking Taiyi in a rather methodical manner.

Raincoat Beast has a strong sense of rhythm in his attacks. His punches seem to have a beat, sometimes straight punches, sometimes hook punches. He is also floating in mid-air, which makes him exceptionally agile. All these advantages combined make him look like a professional boxer.

Faced with such a skilled opponent, Taiyi, who had only ever fought in casual matches and had no formal training, found it difficult to cope for a while.
