I'm just an ordinary person passing by.

The gap... is not a gap in strength, but a gap in numbers.

For three top-tier fighters to deal with ten top-tier fighters... the difficulty is akin to ascending to heaven...

Little Lily clenched her fists tightly, her heart filled with tension and prayer. She already knew that they were outnumbered; three against ten, no matter how you looked at it, they were at a complete disadvantage.

She looked at the powerful Six-Winged Beast, which was forced to defend passively due to its numerical disadvantage, and at the Crimson Knight Beast, which, despite its efforts, could not gain the upper hand... The difference in numbers seemed immense at that moment.

The oppressive aura of the Royal Knights engulfed everything at that moment!

If I keep thinking like this, I'll never win...

Could it be... that they're going to lose?

In this war that will determine the future of two worlds... will we lose?

No...no...we can't lose...we can't lose...The Royal Knights have their reasons for not losing, and so do she!

Father, mother, family, friends... all the people she cares about and loves in the human world are her reasons for moving forward!

We can't lose, we can't lose...

We...can't lose here!!!

An eight-legged horse beast!!!

The Divine Plan shone brightly, the belief that they could not lose colliding with the will of the Digimon, and the bond between Digimon and humans shone brightly at this moment. The Digimon, who was originally in a very bad situation fighting two against one, was suddenly filled with power.

Golden light covered its body like a stream of light.

Power burst forth at this moment, like a flower watered by sweat blossoming and bearing fruit, and the eight-legged horse raised its left arm.

At this moment, the Holy Crossbow gathered a massive amount of energy, and the eight-legged horse-beast launched its attack!

"—Rainbow Bridge Arrow!"

The holy crossbow in his left hand fired scorching light arrows, and the barrage of attacks covered Ultimate V-Dragonmon and Dragon Emperor. The two top Digimon were forced to retreat slightly under the impact of this attack.

The power of the Divine Plan... has been revealed!

However... it's not enough, not enough... such power is not enough to break the deadlock.

Lily was a little anxious... and a little impatient... Six-Winged Beast was fighting six against one, and Gallantmon had no partner. Now, the only ones who could break the deadlock and turn the tide of the battle were her and Eight-Legged Horsemon!

Stronger...stronger! Become stronger...stronger than now, stronger than all of them!

Give me strength, you eight-legged beast!

Chapter 156 The Twisted Power!

Are you ready? Is Sayuri ready?

I don't know... Even Sayuri herself couldn't answer this question...

Entering the Digital World was Yuri's own choice, and her encounter with Mitsubomon was destined, but... without experiencing battles or oppression, Yuri was like a pampered young lady, safely brought here, and then confronting the Royal Knights.

She didn't understand what enlightenment was, nor did she understand what the future held, but if they didn't fight... the world would be destroyed...

This fact and tangible feeling made Sayuri realize that she had to fight and she had to win.

With Kyoko-senpai and Takumi-senpai working together, they could take on six opponents at once. The Eight-Legged Horse Beast isn't much weaker than Takumi-senpai; even if it couldn't take on six, it could certainly take on four...

She hasn't yet unleashed the full power of the eight-legged horse beast; she can become even stronger, and the eight-legged horse beast can become even stronger...

The pressure suddenly overwhelmed her... As she realized this, all sound around her abruptly vanished. Her heart began to pound wildly...

"Thump, thump..."

My heart pounded in my ears, as if some emotion was rising from within...

The only one who can change the current situation is me... only me and the eight-legged horse...

His breathing became rapid... and he gripped the sacred plan with increasing force.

I must become stronger... I must become stronger... Only I and Mabomon can break through this predicament and achieve victory... Only I and Mabomon can save both the Digital World and the Human World at the same time!

Become stronger...keep getting stronger...become even stronger...Eight-legged horse beast!!!

The mind was focused on the sacred plan, but what emanated from it was no longer light, but... darkness.

The eight-legged horsemon, currently battling the Dragon Emperor and Ultimate V-Dragon, was infused with power. However, this power corrupted the sacred light, and the golden light surrounding the eight-legged horsemon visibly turned into darkness. Its once clear eyes... were unknowingly shrouded in darkness...

"Roar!!!!"

Twisted by its will and swallowed by the power of the Divine Plan, the Eight-Legged Horse Beast roared, and the black power formed a shockwave that actually forced back the Dragon Emperor and Ultimate V-Dragon.

"This...this is...!?"

The two Digimon looked astonished, seemingly not understanding why the eight-legged horsemon had suddenly changed its appearance.

But the eight-legged horse beast ignored it all. With a long roar, it moved its six legs like a shooting star across the sky and crashed hard into the Dragon Emperor's belly!

The heavy blow was like a meteorite falling, forcing the Dragon Emperor to retreat.

"—Ultimate Destruction Sword!"

A blue lightsaber slid down from the sky and slashed down at UltimateVeedramon, which was now as fast as the eight-legged horsemon!

but......

"—Clang!!!"

A clear metallic clang rang out as the holy shield on his right arm blocked the terrible blow!

The Sacred Crossbow opened, unleashing a torrent of scorching energy. UltimateVeedramon had no time to dodge and was struck head-on by the point-blank attack, sending it flying backward...

It's a reversal... The eight-legged horse, which should have been at a disadvantage, has... turned the tide of the battle...

Little Lily stared blankly upwards.

Something's wrong...something's really wrong...something's wrong with Eight-Legged Horsemon...even though she didn't know much about Digimon, she knew clearly that something was wrong with Eight-Legged Horsemon right now!

Reason told her she should stop... she should give up this power... but her heart was struggling, and her emotions were running high.

We can't give up... We can't give up... This is the power to change the course of the war... This is the power that can save both the human world and the Digital World... Only I can... Only me and Mabomon can change all of this!

Just a little bit more... just a little bit more... Hypnomon... win the battle... win this war, and save the Digital World and the Human World... Hypnomon!!!

The brilliance of the sacred plan was gradually distorted, and Sayuri's expression became somewhat ferocious.

"Give me...your power! Eight-legged beast!!!"

"Roar!!!!!"

The sound shook heaven and earth, and all the people and all the Digimon involuntarily turned their attention to it. The strangeness of the eight-legged horsemon came into their view.

The dark, distorted light, once a symbol of holiness, dimmed and dissipated, transforming the pure and noble figure into a hideous...eight-legged beast...a fallen form...

"What a twisted and ugly posture, abandoning the original holiness for power... It's a truly laughable scene."

"Power does not come from depravity. What is the point of power if one abandons reason? One is nothing but a beast, not worth mentioning!"

"The Divine Plan...is it about that chosen child?"

"Although the Divine Plan can grant power, it seems to have a great flaw. Once the mind is twisted, the Digimon will also be twisted... The divine light and the dark light are only a moment apart."

"I see. That's why the World Tree explicitly stated that fighting is futile. A sacred plan that cannot mature will become a dark force, and a child that has no time to grow will have a warped will..."

"Children have endless dreams, but they are also prone to going astray. Because they were at a disadvantage in the battle against us, they made this choice."

"As a child, you did well enough, but... you're immature! You're still too immature! The power of the soul shouldn't be such a distorted power!"

"The battle is over. This victory is a victory for us Royal Knights. Gentlemen, finish them off!"

"Let's use our best skills to give them a final, spectacular display! The fact that the three of us could force us to mobilize our entire force is enough to make them proud!"

With a judgment as swift as a trial, the Royal Knights began their final battle...

"Six-winged Beast, although I am very curious as to why you would help humans and why you would suddenly say you would abandon darkness for light, unfortunately, the other six Demon Kings are not here, and you can no longer live... Today, you will be completely destroyed by us!"

As the fragrant beast spoke these words, it transformed into its leopard form, golden lightning coursing through its body. In the blink of an eye, beneath the dark clouds, endless orbs of lightning rained down, enveloping the six-winged beast...

"Ultimate Skill - Conquest!"

With a command given, countless lightning orbs rained down on the six-winged beast...

Chapter 157 Snowflakes Fluttering, North Wind Howling

"Gallantmon, it's over... Despite its powerful twisted will, it's still nothing more than a beast. Examon and UltraVeedramon will prevail sooner or later. Your last hope has vanished..."

"Stop! Stop now, there's still hope of getting back!"

The Tyrannosaurus Sword clashed with Gram, their powers intertwining and exploding, creating a deafening sound in the sky.

"Isn't it a bit too early to declare victory now?"

"I am Gallantmon, the Digimon who protects the human world and the Digital World!"

"I'll risk my life; I'm sure I'll win!"

Red and white light collided rapidly in the sky, and Gallantmon, the only one without a partner, fought Omegamon to a standstill.

The interplay of forces and the collision of energies caused the sky and earth to tremble incessantly as they clashed.

However... the dominance won't last forever. The two equally matched are Gallantmon and Omegamon, not Gallantmon and Omegamon & Skullmon!

Purple light emanated from the earth, and the imposing knight forcefully entered the battle, shattering the evenly matched situation and instantly putting Crimson Knightmon at a disadvantage.

"Gullivermon, why did you betray Yggdrasil! You are a knight, a loyal knight, why did you do this! Answer me!"

"Loyalty? Yes, I am indeed loyal, but Skull Beast, I have realized what I should be loyal to!"

"You should be loyal to Yggdrasil! He is the god of us Digimon!"

"—My loyalty is to Digimon!!! My loyalty is to justice!!! And absolutely not to any god!!"

"The World Tree is justice, the World Tree is peace, Gallantmon, you have betrayed peace and justice!"

"The World Tree represents justice, the World Tree represents peace... Who said this? Who allowed it? How can the World Tree represent justice? How can the World Tree represent peace? Is peace achieved at the expense of others?!"

"This is a necessary sacrifice! To protect the Digital World! The destruction of the human world is inevitable! Yggdrasil will not make a mistake!"

"—Is God absolutely infallible?"

A crimson light emanated from the Crimson Knight Beast's body, and the Holy Lance and Divine Shield seemed to sense something, suddenly unleashing an incomparably powerful force at that moment.
