Knights of the Digital World

Of course, if we calculate the true level of the Dark Beast, it is only at the mature stage, so having this kind of strength is already extremely exaggerated.

The situation is now the same for both the Eight-Legged Horse Beast and the Dark Beast.

He is too strong.

Emu simply doesn't have the strength to fight the Eight-Legged Horse Beast at full power. One full-force attack from the Eight-Legged Horse Beast would be enough to defeat Emu.

In this situation, trying to get a Royal Knight cartridge just by relying on the teachings of the Eight-Legged Horse Beast is simply wishful thinking.

Therefore, Emu hopes to strengthen his own power first before trying to obtain this Royal Knight cartridge.

However, this process may take a long time.

Top-tier ultimate forms are not so easy to deal with.

Even if you just want to have the ability to fight them with all your might, it would take Emu a lot of time and effort to improve.

Moreover, Emu's time in this world is also limited.

His original purpose was to come to this world to improve his strength and go back to help Takuya and the others.

Although the Dark Train Beast can help him travel through time, this is limited.

It's impossible that Yongmeng could have trained here for over a hundred years and then been sent back to his original point in time by the Dark Ship.

This is far beyond the capabilities of the Dark Knight.

If Yongmeng wants to catch up with the battle in another world, he has three months left.

Beyond this range, even if the Dark Ones exert all their strength, they will not be able to return until after the ambush by the Evil Warriors.

Therefore, Emu was also prepared for the possibility of failing to get something for free.

He just wants to do his best to improve his skills in the next three months.

Then, before going back, I'll give it one last try to see if I can get the cartridge.

If it succeeds, that would be best; if not, we can only leave it for another day.

In addition, Parad is already capable of evolving into the Ultimate level LadyDevimon, and she needs enough battles to hone her skills.

This is both to master one's own abilities and to accumulate combat experience.

These will all be key to Pallad's future advancement to higher levels.

Due to a combination of factors, Emu made the decision to continue his travels and training.

The shokumon had no complaints about Emu's decision; in fact, it was quite pleased.

"I don't know why you say you're not qualified to receive my teachings. My teachings aren't anything special. Take my partner, the Stubborn Beast, for example; he only had one disciple. When he took on his disciple, his disciple wasn't even as strong as you..."

"But none of that matters. What matters is that I can see that this decision was made after careful consideration and assessment of your own situation. That's excellent! It's essential to have this ability to think and judge for yourself in order to move forward step by step!"

Kujiramon praised Emu a few times, then asked, "Are you and Parad the only ones going to the Digital World? What about Dai and the others?"

"I think Da and the others are planning to go too? I haven't asked them yet."

Emu scratched his head. Although he had thought carefully about his decision to travel and train in the Digital World, he had always been reluctant to give up the temptation of getting the Royal Knight cartridge for free. There was always a voice in his heart telling him, "What if I succeed?"

It was only after seeing the Fox-like Beast that he finally severed his greed and wishful thinking and made his decision.

Before that, he naturally wouldn't ask others for advice on an uncertain decision.

If he can't resist the temptation and still chooses to try to get the Royal Knight cartridge for free, but he made an appointment with the others to travel and train in the Digital World together, wouldn't that be breaking his promise?

A person should be trustworthy. If you make a promise, you should do your best to fulfill it. Don't make promises you can't keep. This is a principle that Yongmeng has always adhered to.

"I see. Then let's wait for Dai and the others. If you're all going to the Digital World, I have a small task for you."

After waiting in the lobby for a while, Da, Toma, and Shuna arrived one after another.

Because Yuuto was still young and had grown up in the digital world with little contact with others, his parents found him a school hoping he could make more friends and learn more. Therefore, he didn't come to dats.

After everyone had arrived, Kujiramon asked them what they thought, and they all agreed that they also wanted to go to the Digital World.

"In that case, I have a small task I'd like you to help me with. Of course, you can refuse."

"Kankomon, just tell us what the mission is, we can definitely handle it. Right, Toma, Yoshino, Emu?"

He didn't even listen to what the task was before readily agreeing.

Thomas slapped his face, feeling somewhat helpless at his best friend's silly behavior, and said:

"Fox Beast, ignore this idiot, tell me what the mission is first."

"It's not a difficult task, I just hope you can help me find a Digimon. His name is BanchoLeomon."

The fox-like beast began explaining the mission.

"BanchoLeomon is a Digimon that upholds its own justice and is not in any danger. Moreover, BanchoLeomon is a strongman who has survived many arduous battles without defeat, and his title of 'Bancho' is the best proof. In the entire Digital World, there are only five Digimon who have earned this title. If you can find him, you can ask him to give you some pointers; he will not refuse."

"Is it that simple? Then why are you looking for us? With so many Digimon in the Digital World, can't you find BanchoLeomon?"

Thomas was a little confused. According to the description of the kujiromon, BanchoLeomon was a relatively kind Digimon, and he could even get guidance after finding it.

The only difficulty in the mission is finding BanchoLeomon.

But clearly, having more people is more advantageous. How can the few members of .DATS compete with so many Digimon in the Digital World in finding people?

"BanchoLeomon has some misunderstandings with us right now and doesn't really want to see us. Even if you use a Digimon to find him, he'll avoid you and you won't be able to find him. However, BanchoLeomon and Hide have a good relationship and they're partners. If you go looking for him, he might come out on his own because of Dai's presence."

The fox-like beast was also very frank and explained all the reasons.

Chapter Twenty-Three: Entering the Digital World

Kurata, as the "King of the Pot" in Part 5, is the starting point of all evil, committing countless atrocities and causing countless tragedies.

For example, Ikuto Noguchi lost his adoptive mother, the Snowman Beast, because of Kurata's actions.

If it weren't for Emu leading to Kurata's premature arrest, Mercury, whom Noguchi Ikuto regarded as a father or elder, would also have met his demise.

However, if we were to create a ranking to see who was most harmed by Kurata, Noguchi Ikuto would have to step down; Daimon Hideyoshi would be the most tragic one.

Daimon Hideaki had already experienced Kurata's terrible side ten years ago.

Back then, everyone was happily exploring the Digital World, and the Digimon they encountered were quite friendly. Just when everything seemed to be going smoothly, Kurata got itchy.

The timid boy fired his gun in fright when a curious Digimon approached him.

The Digimon was unharmed, but it was enraged by Kurata's actions and launched an attack on the expedition team.

This became a psychological shadow for Kurata afterward.

To protect his teammates, Daimon Hideaki had no choice but to take action and defeat the Digimon.

However, this stirred up a hornet's nest, and the Digimon began to hunt down the expedition team.

The Digimon they pursued were all stronger than the last.

Fortunately, Daimon Hideaki was incredibly strong, defeating one opponent after another, even defeating the Golden SaberLeomon.

Unfortunately, Daimon's formidable strength also caught the attention of Mercurymon, prompting Mercurymon to personally intercept the expedition team.

So, in order to cover his teammates' retreat, Daimon stayed behind to fight Mercurymon, and thus got lost in the Digital World.

That's fine.

Daimon earned Mercurymon's respect through his own strength, and his ideas about harmonious coexistence between humans and Digimon and an infinite future were also recognized by Mercurymon.

Afterwards, Daimon traveled through the Digital World and met his like-minded partner, BanchoLeomon.

Yggdrasil, the World Tree, had originally planned to destroy the human world. However, thanks to the efforts of Daimon Hideaki and BanchoLeomon, they abandoned this idea.

Then, that awful Kurata came again.

He led his army of Gizmon on a rampage through the Digital World, enraging Yggdrasil. Yggdrasil even wanted to execute Daimon Hideaki for this.

If BanchoLeomon hadn't absorbed Daimon Hideaki's Digimon soul into his body, saving his life, this powerful man would have been easily defeated.

Moreover, it was Kurata's hunting operation that caused Yggdrasil to lose trust in humanity, sowing the seeds for his future decision to destroy the human world.

In fact, Yggdrasil's first attempt to destroy the human world was merely out of biological alarm.

As intelligent beings, we will instinctively be wary of other intelligent beings.

As an individual, he might not think too much about it, but as a "god" of Digimon, Yggdrasil would carefully consider the threat posed by humans.

Just as the higher echelons of humanity have always viewed the digital world as a potential threat.

This is something that leaders should consider.

However, this decision is not unchangeable; it is merely a preliminary decision made based on the most convenient considerations.

So after the efforts of Daimon Hideaki and BanchoLeomon, Yggdrasil abandoned its original decision and wanted to think of a more suitable method.

But the second decision to destroy the human world was made after careful consideration.

Kurata's actions led him to conclude that humans and Digimon could not coexist.

As a god in the Digital World, its choice to protect the Digimon was to destroy the human world.

This decision is final, and Yggdrasil will not change it again.

In the original story, even when the Royal Knights rebelled one after another, Yggdrasil did not change its mind, which shows its unwavering will.

Of course, the situation is different now.

Kurata was executed ahead of schedule, and humans played a significant role in this.

Therefore, Yggdrasil now has a fairly good impression of humans, unlike the hatred he felt in the original story.

Therefore, Igudrashir decided to return Daimon Ying's body to him.

The problem now is that BanchoLeomon—or rather, Daimon Hideaki—is unaware of what is happening in the real world.

He also thought that Yggdrasil was planning to destroy the real world, so he wandered around the digital world trying to find a solution.

Given his current status, which is equivalent to that of a wanted criminal, he has been avoiding other Digimon, which has led to Yggdrasil being unable to find him now.

That's why the task that the Foxmon is now requesting is what it is.

After hearing the details of the mission, Emu guessed the general situation based on his knowledge of the information.

The others, lacking the prophetic power of Eternal Dream, were all astonished that this matter was connected to the Great Father.

Da was the most excited. Well, his father had been missing for ten years, and he hadn't really felt anything about it. If he had to say, he actually felt a bit resentful of being abandoned.

But just a few days ago, I learned from Captain Satsuma about his father. I learned that his father did not abandon them voluntarily, but left himself in the Digital World to cover for his teammates.
