Knights of the Digital World

Emu's Digivice was visibly damaged and undoubtedly broken. While the Digivices of Dai and the other two appeared intact on the surface, closer inspection revealed cracks, indicating they were not far from breaking down.

"how so?!"

Dai shouted first, and Toma and Shuno also showed surprised expressions.

Under their watchful eyes, BanchoLeomon calmly said:

"That's normal. Do you think an ordinary Digimon can withstand the ultimate Digimon Soul? The reason your Digimon haven't broken yet is only because your Digimon Soul has made a preliminary breakthrough with my help. In terms of strength, it's not as good as a normal breakthrough."

You can take a look at Emu's Digivice. This is what it looks like when you use the Digivice after a normal breakthrough. The Digivice will be completely destroyed.

Chapter Sixty, The Ultimate Digital Soul

"So what do we do now? BanchoLeomon, can you fix the Digivice?"

After the initial panic, Thomas was the first to regain his composure and asked a question.

BanchoLeomon smiled slightly and said:

“I can repair Digivice, but what’s the point? You can’t control your Digimon souls, you’ll just keep destroying Digivice. Even if I could repair them, I couldn’t keep up with the demand.”

BanchoLeomon's words left Thomas speechless. Indeed, simply fixing the Digivice was only a temporary solution.

Unable to control the Digimon Soul, they will ultimately destroy the Digimon Machine.

"BanchoLeomon, stop keeping us in suspense. Tell us what to do."

Yoshino felt a little calmer when she noticed that BanchoLeomon wasn't in a hurry at all.

She guessed that BanchoLeomon must have a way to remain calm; otherwise, what was the point of BanchoLeomon teaching them? Was it just to ruin their Digivice?

"Didn't I already say that you need to master the power of ultimate evolution?"

BanchoLeomon remained calm and unhurried, speaking slowly and deliberately:

"You could only say that you possessed the ultimate level of the Digital Soul before. However, you couldn't use it well. At least, you couldn't even fully master the most basic aspects."

To repair Digimon, or even to learn 'Burst Mode,' you must first thoroughly master the Ultimate Digimon Soul.

"So what exactly do I need to do? Just tell me!"

Dai was completely bewildered by BanchoLeomon's words and covered his head, shouting loudly.

"Heh, don't be so impatient, come with me."

Bancho Lionmon shook his head and turned to walk into the forest.

Daiichi took the lead and followed Bancho Lionmon. Toma and Yoshino quickly followed.

Emu was tugged by Bancho-chan.

He looked at Bancho-chan and saw it wink at him and whisper:

"Kid, study hard, or you'll embarrass me."

"Don't worry, Master!"

Emu nodded to the leader of the clan, Mamemon, and quickly followed after Dai and the others who were about to disappear from sight.

"You can stay here."

When Bancho-Meatmon saw that Agumon and the others were about to follow, he reached out and stopped them.

"This is their own test, concerning whether they can master the ultimate digital soul. You shouldn't go in; it will affect them."

"Master, can't I go in too? I promise I won't bother Yongmeng, okay?"

Paradrag took the hand of the Bancho Beanmon and said coquettishly.

"No, no. I already said it's a test."

The leader, DouDoumon, adhered to his principles and did not soften his heart in the slightest because of his apprentice's coquettishness.

"Palad, forget about it. I'm not letting you in. Seeing how energetic you are, you must have recovered quite well. I think you should have the ability to evolve on your own now, right? Come on, go show me the results of your cultivation."

Not only did he show no mercy, but the leader of the Beanmon clan also delivered a vicious blow.

Parad pouted, but still obediently evolved into a witch beast.

Human Digimon partners can also evolve on their own. For example, Gatomon in the first season reached the Champion stage through its own training.

However, this kind of self-evolution requires a lot of training, while Digimon partners mostly rely on human power to evolve, thus lacking training in this aspect and rarely achieving self-evolution.

"Pallard, you're amazing! You can even evolve on your own."

Lalamon flew over to Parad's side, looking somewhat envious. Gaomon and Agumon nodded in agreement.

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's all thanks to Master's excellent teaching~"

Parad openly began to flatter him.

The leader of the Beanmon chuckled, shook his head, and tapped Parad on the head:

No matter how much you flatter me, I won't let you in.

Then, he looked at Agumon and the others:

"Come with me. I can teach you something. How much you learn is up to you."

"Yes!"

The three Agumon members became excited. They had thought they were just going to wait there like idiots, but unexpectedly, they would receive instruction from Bancho-Mamemon.

…………

"That's strange, why haven't Agumon and the others arrived yet?"

At this point, Dai had begun to have doubts and kept looking back, but he couldn't see Agumon anywhere.

"Stop looking. This is a test for you. Agumon and the others are useless; they'll only distract you. Don't worry, I've asked Bancho-Mamemon to keep an eye on them. Maybe Agumon and the others can even get some benefits."

"Oh, I see. Then I'm relieved."

After hearing BanchoLeomon's explanation, Daiichi immediately felt relieved.

Unlike the original story where Taira and his friends were wary of BanchoLeomon, they were under immense pressure from the Digimon Hunters' pursuit. BanchoLeomon was also an unfamiliar Digimon, and kept asking them mysteriously what DigiSoul was.

Given this, let alone the adults, anyone would think this guy is crazy and untrustworthy.

However, they have now spent two months with BanchoLeomon, and under BanchoLeomon's careful guidance, they have even come into contact with the power of Ultimate Evolution. They have become very close to each other, and their level of trust is very high.

Therefore, Dai immediately believed BanchoLeomon's explanation. Neither Toma nor Yoshino raised any questions.

"Okay, here it is."

BanchoLeomon led everyone to an open space. The space had clearly been cleared recently and still looked somewhat messy. Four simple wooden figures were placed there.

Bancho-Lion clapped his hands, and the wooden man immediately seemed to receive a command, a faint light appearing on his body as he began to move.

The wooden figures made a few simple movements, stretching their arms and legs, much like people doing warm-up exercises. Then, each of them chose a target, walked up to Yongmeng and the others, and stood still.

"BanchoLeomon, what are you trying to do?"

Thomas asked curiously.

"Isn't it obvious? Defeat them." BanchoLeomon said in a matter-of-fact tone.

"Huh? But aren't we trying to master the Ultimate Digital Soul? What does this have to do with hitting the wooden dummy?"

Shu Nai also asked.

"You'll find out once you've done it."

BanchoLeomon still refused to answer, only urging them to take action.

"Well, so all you need to do is defeat them, right? Watch me! I'm Daimon, the number one fighting gang leader in Japan!"

Trusting BanchoLeomon, Dai did not raise any objections as he did in the original story. Instead, his blood boiled, and he roared as he punched the wooden figure in front of him.

While recalling the plot, Emu also started fighting. He couldn't quite remember this part of the plot, but he was sure he was right based on what BanchoLeomon said.

Seeing this, Toma and Shuna stopped talking and began attacking their wooden dolls as well.

Chapter 61, Digivice Burst (First Update)

In Emu's memory, the wooden doll didn't seem to have served any purpose.

The reason why they were able to master the Ultimate Digimon Soul was entirely due to their concern for their partner and their belief in protecting her, which led them to master the Ultimate Digimon Soul.

To put it bluntly, this is called the protagonist unleashing their full potential.

It's completely impossible to see what they learned from the wooden figures.

After Dai and his team mastered the Ultimate Digital Soul, Kijin was no longer a match for them and was directly crushed by Dai and his team using the Digital Soul.

From beginning to end, apart from the wooden man giving the three adults a good beating at the beginning, he hardly played any role.

However, Emu believed that BanchoLeomon would not do anything in vain.

After all, he couldn't precisely predict when the Digimon Hunters would attack. When he was instructing Dai and the others in their training, he certainly wasn't trying to use the pressure from the Digimon Hunters to make them unleash their full power.

This method has too many variables. It is impossible to systematically summarize and teach it.

BanchoLeomon's original plan was definitely to have them learn something from the wooden golem and then master the Ultimate Digimon Soul.

However, plans can't keep up with changes. The arrival of the Digimon Hunters made them restless and had no interest in observing and learning.

BanchoLeomon had no choice but to abandon his original plan and instead guide them by stirring up their emotions to make them master the Ultimate Digimon Soul.

However, this does not mean that BanchoLeomon's original plan was wrong or useless.

On the contrary, Emu believed that the wooden figure was the culmination of Bancho Lionmon's efforts and that he had prepared it as a systematic and repeatable teaching method.

Even though the storyline is completely different from the TV series, BanchoLeomon's teaching method is still the wooden dummies, which shows how much he values ​​this method.

This is a matter of luck; betting on a lucky break is much more reliable.

Therefore, Emu maintained a very proper attitude when facing the wooden doll. After briefly recalling the plot, once they actually engaged in combat, he focused entirely on the wooden doll, carefully observing the process of the fight, wanting to see what secrets the wooden doll, which BanchoLeomon had meticulously prepared, held.

Upon engaging in combat, Emu discovered the wonder of the wooden doll.

There seems to be a layer of something smooth on the surface of the wooden figure. Punches and kicks will simply slide off it.

The wooden figures gradually became more agile, no longer limited to a few simple movements like before, their arms and legs moving in straight lines. If it weren't for the strange energy surrounding them, they would have been defeated long ago.

But now, the wooden puppet's movements have become much more agile, and Emu and the others' attacks are no longer so easy to hit it.

Instead, it was the wooden man who began to fight back, occasionally landing a few punches on Emu and the others.
