Knights of the Digital World

This completely reversed the image of the father in Da Xin's heart.

Especially after hearing that Daimon Hideaki was very strong, many people admired and idolized their father even more.

Now, hearing news related to his father, Da could no longer contain himself. He placed his hands on the table, leaned close to the fox-like beast, and asked:

"Kankomon, is BanchoLeomon really my dad's partner? If I find BanchoLeomon, will I be able to find my dad?"

The shrewmon chuckled and said, "More or less. Find BanchoLeomon and tell him it's all in the past, and Lord Yggdrasil has given up. He'll understand. After he talks to us, Hide will come back."

"Why do I need to talk to you guys before my dad comes back? Do you guys know anything about my dad?"

Despite his usual hot-blooded and silly appearance, he always has a keen sense of the key points.

But the fox-like beast refused to say anything more, only saying that it would be clear when it grew up.

He himself knew that it wasn't a pleasant thing to say that the World Tree had taken over Daimon Hideaki's body, especially in front of Daimon.

Moreover, as a member of the Royal Knights under the World Tree, he couldn't just make fun of his boss.

Having roughly guessed what the fox spirit was thinking, Emu stopped Dai from continuing to ask questions, saying:

"Big brother, you'll know the details when your father gets back. What we need to confirm now is whether we should accept this mission?"

"Of course I want to! I want to find my dad. And I also want to fight that guy called BanchoLeomon. I want to see what makes him call himself Bancho. And see who's stronger between me, the number one fighting Bancho in Japan!"

Da immediately shifted his attention and began to boast shamelessly.

"Indeed. Since we're going to travel to the Digital World anyway, having a goal is better than running around like a headless fly."

After listening to the fox-like beast's description and explanation of the mission, Thomas knew there was probably something fishy going on, but it wouldn't affect them much. He thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

"Since that's what you all think, I have no objection."

Shu Nai was the most straightforward, shrugging her shoulders to indicate that she had no objection.

"Now that you've made your decision, you need to be prepared. Tell your families where you're going and bring anything you need."

Captain Samo offered some advice.

"These things should take about a day. Come back here tomorrow to meet up. Go through the dats digital gate."

"Yes!"

They quickly agreed. Indeed, it was best to inform their parents and relatives beforehand about this journey, which was expected to take an unknown amount of time, so as not to worry them.

Emu scratched his head and said, "I don't have any relatives here, so why don't you let me go first?"

Dai was taken aback and asked, "Yongmeng, aren't you coming with us?"

"No. I have experience in the Digital World from another world. My current strength is enough to walk in the Digital World. I still have the ability to escape if I encounter any danger."

Emu waved his hand and said.

The advantage of traveling with them is that it's relatively safe. The team has four fully-formed beings and one weakly ultimate being (barely reaching the ultimate level) in terms of combat power. While they can't do anything for free, they generally won't encounter any danger.

The downside is that there won't be enough training. The number of opponents one can encounter along the way is limited; if there are too many people, there won't be enough opponents to go around. This doesn't align with Emu's original intention of going to the Digital World for training.

"But……"

Dai wanted to offer some further advice, but Toma patted him on the shoulder and said, "Alright, Dai. Emu must have thought this through carefully. There's no need to say anything more. Besides, from the perspective of finding someone, separating them is much more effective than keeping them together."

"That makes sense... So, shall we split into teams too?"

The big fool asked, making Thomas want to facepalm:

"Big brother, are you serious? Including Emu, there are two fully-powered fighters on Emu's side. We've split into teams, and each team only has one fully-powered fighter. We don't even have anyone to look after us."

"Haha, yes, Thomas, what you said is exactly what I was thinking. I was just testing you before, and you certainly didn't disappoint me."

He laughed it off, saying things he didn't even believe himself, and quickly changed the subject.

"Alright, since you've made up your mind, Emu, let's do it this way. However, we'll set off tomorrow too, and we'll catch up with you very soon!"

"Ah, I'll be waiting for you in the Digital World," Emu said with a smile.

"I'll stay in the real world for a few more days, then I'll go back to the Digital World. After I find BanchoLeomon, I'll tell him to go find Yggdrasil; he knows where it is. I'll be waiting for you there. As for Emu, whether he can find me or not will be a test for him."

The fox-like beast tilted its head back and laughed.

"No problem. Okay everyone, I'm off!"

"Miki-neechan, Megumi-neechan, Yoshino-neechan, I'm leaving now. I'll come back and discuss the new cosmetics with you all!"

Emu and Parad bid farewell to everyone. The digital gate inside the dats base was also opened.

A new digital world has arrived, Emu Hojo!

Chapter 24, VS LadyDevimon

The barrier between the real world and the digital world in the fifth installment is much weaker than in the fourth.

In the fifth installment, Kurata's misuse of the spacetime vibration bomb caused the barrier between the two worlds to collapse.

In the original work, Kurata's desperate struggle even caused the world barrier to completely collapse, triggering a crisis where the real world and the digital world collided.

It's worth mentioning that Kurata didn't forget to sabotage Daimon Hideaki before he was defeated.

In order to protect the two worlds, Daimon Hideaki transformed his digital soul into the pillars of both worlds, nearly dying on the spot.

Therefore, Daimon Hideki's position at the top of the list of those harmed by Kurata is secure, and no one has the right to challenge it.

As for the fourth part, the main characters travel between the two worlds using the power of the Electric Train Beast.

This ability to traverse world barriers does not damage the world barriers, therefore the world barriers in Part 4 retain their original capabilities.

This is also why the Electric Train Beast experiences severe jolting when traveling through the world.

This is the world's barriers resisting passage.

The world barrier in the fifth installment had lost its original protective capabilities, making the journey exceptionally easy.

"Emu, is this what you meant by traveling through worlds? I didn't feel any turbulence."

Parad tugged at Emu's sleeve and asked curiously.

Their journey was easy this time. They passed through the digital gate and, in a flash, found themselves amidst a green mountain.

However, they have already arrived in the digital world.

Parad had heard Emu talk about his experience of traveling through worlds before, but now his account was completely different from Emu's.

"Hmm...it's a difference between worlds...after all, the barriers between worlds in this world have been severely damaged."

Emu shrugged, not really caring.

Given that the fifth installment, which can be left unattended and still open the door connecting two worlds on its own, it's normal that it won't be too bumpy.

"The Digital World of this world... it doesn't feel much different from the Digital World I came from..."

Emu looked around, took a deep breath, and then pulled out his Infinity Gacha.

During the month he spent traveling with the Dark Beast, he had grown accustomed to maintaining the posture of a knight.

In the real world, there wouldn't be much danger, and maintaining a knight's posture would seem strange to others, so Emu didn't maintain this habit.

Now that he's back in the Digital World, Emu naturally has to pick up his old habits again.

Of the cartridges Emu currently owns, aside from those he doesn't use often, the only ones he isn't completely familiar with are Level 3 Flight Action Player and Level 5 Gundam Action Player.

The flight action mode doesn't significantly improve Emu's overall strength; it mainly compensates for Emu's lack of aerial combat capabilities.

However, Gundam action players also possess the ability to engage in aerial combat, and in terms of strength enhancement, they can even elevate Emu to the level of a weak ultimate form.

In addition, Emu had never used the Gundam cartridges since he obtained them, so this was a good opportunity for him to familiarize himself with them.

Having chosen the cartridge, Emu immediately transformed.

This transformation is unlike any other.

Yongmeng could feel the energy within his body surging upwards. After transforming, he felt that the things around him had become shorter, and his own body seemed to have become heavier.

From Parad's perspective, after Emu transformed, he appeared as a robot nearly five meters tall, covered in pink armor.

She looked at the robot that was still moving and asked loudly, "Emu, is that you? How are you feeling?"

Still adjusting, Emu heard a shout from beside his feet. Looking down, he saw that Parad had become tiny in his view. He couldn't help but smile, squatted down, and said:

"I'm fine. The Gundam Action Player Mode provides me with a lot of energy. And, since I'm a pilot now, I can actually detach from this mecha freely. However, after detaching, the energy I can obtain will be reduced by more than half. But, the mecha can also move on its own, although it's just simple intelligence, it can still coordinate with me in many ways."

As Emu spoke, he straightened up again, and a slit opened in the robot's chest and abdomen. Emu, in his Kamen Rider Ex-Aid form, leaped out and showed it to Parad.

Gundam cartridges are like the Extreme Extraordinary X-Transformation cartridges in the Ex-Aid TV series; after transformation, they provide the user with a mecha.

The difference might be that the Gundam cartridge is significantly weaker than the Extreme X cartridge.

Of course, in terms of coolness, Gundam mechas far surpass X-Mechas.

"Emu, I want to fight you. I want to know my current strength. Is that alright?"

Parad looked at the tall and handsome Gundam mecha, eager to try it out.

After making up her mind to become stronger, Parad did change a lot; at least she didn't have such a strong fighting spirit before.

To become stronger, combat is essential. Diligent training can only produce numerical strength; how much of one's true power can be unleashed in actual combat remains uncertain.

"Okay, I'll familiarize myself with the Gundam form too."

Emu nodded in agreement, took out the Digivice, infused it with the Digimon Soul, and helped Parad evolve into LadyDevimon.

Parad stretched his body.

Unlike Emu or Takuya from Part 4, they were just ordinary people before their evolution, and it took them time to adapt to their sudden surge of power.

Parad is a Digimon, and evolution is her instinct. Therefore, after evolving, she basically mastered LadyDevimon's abilities. She just needs a lot of battles to accumulate experience and fully integrate her abilities.

Emu jumped backward and re-entered the Gundam's body.

Gundam, whose head had been hanging low after Emu left, suddenly raised it, its eyes shining, and Emu's voice came out:

"Palad, come on."

After evolving into LadyDevimon, it also had some effect on Parad, who covered her mouth and let out her classic queenly level three laugh:

"Heh heh heh heh heh, Emu, take this! Dark Wave!"

LadyDevimon flicked her bat-wing-like cloak, releasing countless dark, bat-like flying creatures that shot towards Emu.

Emu, intending to test the capabilities of the Gundam mecha, did not use his own abilities, but instead fired a series of beams from both sides of his head:
