With each breath, a large amount of oxygen rushes into the body, and the dormant organs awaken one after another, and the sound of breathing soon becomes like the low growl of a tiger or leopard.

The airflow visible to the naked eye is generated by the large-scale exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the nostrils and mouth.

The world of Inuyasha was almost saved, but then they discovered a new world, A Chinese Ghost Story, waiting to be saved. After going there, they fell into a trap set by gods and Buddhas, and then discovered many other worlds on the verge of collapse—

In other words, the Gintama world doesn't have a timeline rule, otherwise he would probably be in trouble.

I don't think so.

perhaps.

Zhang Chengyi searched his memories and realized something was amiss. The Gintama movie, *The Yorozuya Forever*, seemed to have a time-travel plot. If the information that constitutes this world existed in the movie, then…

The good ones don't work, but the bad ones do.

He quickly realized the unusual nature of his awakening.

The skies over Edo were constantly filled with spaceships from all over the universe; when did they become so clean?

There was absolutely no sign of human life nearby, not even a bird in sight; the whole city seemed utterly desolate.

"Cuizi."

Zhang Chengyi called for outside help, but this clone was clearly unable to handle unexpected situations.

After a brief period of activity, Midori quickly provided the situation report for the Gintama world: "[Lady Rat God, the rules of this world were inherently flawed. They weren't fully formed and were still loading new, subordinate rules. Due to a spacetime fracture, the other loading spacetimes collapsed, the dragon veins went berserk, and tore apart the world's outer walls...]"

She gave a long report analyzing the rules. To summarize, the Gintama world has settings related to the movies, but not completely. The Dragon Vein, an energy with ambiguous external information, is inherently flawed and has become the cornerstone of the entire world. The collapse of the spacetime rules caused the Dragon Vein to go berserk, tearing open the outer wall of the world and throwing all life inside out.

This does not include dormant modifiers.

After speaking, Cui Zi concluded: "The dragon vein has left with the beings of this world, most likely traveling to other worlds due to the incomplete spacetime rules. However, the foundation of this world is the dragon vein. If the dragon vein is completely lost, the entire world will probably collapse within twenty years."

After listening expressionlessly, Zhang Chengyi's clone in the Gintama world put on a mask of pain.

He knows this routine very well.

That's how the Doraemon world collapsed—a problem caused by the collapse of the timeline. The civilization in the Doraemon world possessed a powerful level of technology for recreating worlds; creating a universe was merely a student's toy for them. Even the collapse of the universe didn't cause much of a stir; at most, it was considered a civil case.

The police in Doraemon's world are still searching for the 'criminal' who caused the world's collapse.

It is precisely because the Doraemon world has been reshaped by the local civilization that all the magical gadgets and his robotic cat body can function properly.

He only needs to continuously retrieve the magical items that have fallen into other worlds. Generally, items and humans from other worlds have little impact on the current world, so they can be completely ignored. The world itself has a certain degree of tolerance for error.

However, the magical gadgets in Doraemon's world are too powerful, and their influence on the world is enough to cause it to collapse completely. That's why he keeps collecting magical gadgets to prevent problems from arising in other worlds.

The current timeline in the Gintama world is malfunctioning, but the unfortunate ones aren't necessarily the dragon veins and lives that flew out; the world is already preparing to send them away first.

"I fucking..."

Chapter 516 The Day the Digital World Was in Crisis (Digimon Short Story)

It is unclear from which day it began, but the digital world has fallen into crisis.

Zhang Chengyimon suddenly fell into a deep sleep, and its homeostasis disappeared. As a result, due to the firewall crash, a large number of virus species and [unknown] Digimon that had been thrown into the dark area flooded in.

The flames of war ignited the entire digital world in the blink of an eye.

The Digimon that Zhang Chengyi had trained for many years had greatly improved their strength. Not only Ultimate level Digimon, but also many Super Ultimate level Digimon had emerged, making it easy for them to face external enemies.

But it's too easy.

It was not nearly as powerful as Elder Xuannei and the Four Sacred Beasts had predicted. They had initially thought that due to the departure of constancy, they would have to face an enemy at the 'concept' level, which was the opposite of constancy.

The foreign Digimon that entered the Digital World from all over the world seemed to have a great impact, arousing the vigilance of the entire world, but it subsided in just two or three days.

Immediately afterward, the Four Holy Beasts realized something was wrong. These wretched outsiders weren't here to fight for the world at all. The 'concept' that had once opposed constancy had vanished. The Dark Area completely collapsed, and the Digital World, barely holding on, was already on the countdown to destruction.

The disappearance of homeostasis is not simply its loss; it takes away the very foundation and reason for the existence of the entire Digital World. It was only at this point that the Four Holy Beasts and Elder Gennai realized that for a considerable period of time, homeostasis had been continuously transferring large numbers of Digimon outside the world to the unknown. It was not a temporary departure at all, and all the Digimon that remained were abandoned.

Thus, having completely lost hope of saving the world through homeostasis, many Digimon, in order to survive, opened the gates to the world where [reality and humans] exist.

The escape begins.

"WarGreymon, go and inform Zhang Chengyi immediately!"

Gennai, an old man, lay on WarGreymon and shouted loudly.

The collapse of the digital world was a spiraling collapse centered on File Island, and logically, the place where Zhang Chengyi was sleeping should have been the final place of destruction.

However, the gateway to the real world from the digital world lies on several continents, and the world is collapsing faster and faster. If Zhang Chengyi is not awakened and escaped as soon as possible, it may be too late to leave.

The WarGreymon flying in the air remained silent, having used all its strength to fly, leaving it no room to speak.

The once clear, azure sky is now riddled with cracks, and within those cracks lies a chilling, deep abyss.

"No, lower it quickly!"

Elder Xuan exclaimed in alarm, "'Sky' data has been corrupted. If you continue flying and touch those gaps, you'll likely fall out of this world..."

The Digimon have already explored what lies beyond this world, and the answer is nothing. The probes that were thrown out have disappeared without a trace, and the Digimon that accidentally went out have completely lost contact.

What is more terrifying than death is the 'unknown', which is as dark as darkness.

[Zhang Chengyi!]

Instead of stopping or landing, WarGreymon accelerated further, its entire body transforming into a streak of light in the air as countless memories flooded its mind.

How could it abandon its companion at a time like this!

'Courage' gave it more power, and a continuous stream of power burst forth from its heart. Its body glowed with a faint golden light, and soon the light became more and more dazzling. Its speed also increased greatly. It passed through layers of blocking gaps, flew across the vast ocean in a zigzag pattern, and completed the journey that would normally take half a day in just a dozen seconds, arriving at 'File Island'.

"boom!"

In an attempt to avoid the ever-growing number of fissures, WarGreymon crashed headfirst into the Lookout Mountain. The mountain collapsed, triggering the defenses of Zhang Chengyi's laboratory in the mountain. Rays capable of causing Digimon to degenerate shot out, and WarGreymon, which had just seemed poised for a Mega Evolution, was saturated with them, instantly transforming into Agumon.

"Pfft~"

The Rolling Ball Beast blinked, looking at the old man Xuan Nei holding it in front of it, its eyes quickly filling with tears of anxiety: "Zhang Chengyi! Zhang Chengyi!"

Unfortunately, its sound couldn't attract any attention at all.

"Who are you..." From within the smoke, the figures of the two Ultimate-level Digimon guards of the laboratory, [High Machinemon] and [Skullmon], appeared.

"Agumon and Elder Gennai?"

The old man, Gennai, said with a serious expression, "Gentlemen, the world is collapsing. We need to escape the Digital World as soon as possible."

“Zhang Chengyi is still asleep,” the advanced cyborg said calmly. “We cannot open his Chrono Alloy room where he is asleep.”

Skullmon stood quietly to the side. It was a prototype Digimon created by Zhang Chengyi as an experiment to provide data and graphics. Due to a problem with its biological synaptic circuitry, its thinking ability and intelligence were impaired, and it could only serve as a henchman until now.

"If the world is destroyed, we should just perish with it."

The advanced cyborg said those words very easily.

They were all created, and they were very close to Zhang Chengyi. After being given biological synaptic circuits that could think and feel emotions, their feelings were elevated to that of a child towards his father.

Let's die together.

The old man Xuan Nei looked at the two Ultimate beings who should have been able to leave alive and sighed deeply.

He had already planned to live and die with the Digital World, so he couldn't say anything else at this moment.

The homeostasis abandoned the vast majority of Digimon and most of the world, and this feeling of abandonment had long since made him lose hope.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come over to tell WarGreymon to return to File Island.

"and many more!"

A hurried voice rang out, and the Digimon that appeared next surprised all the Digimon present—

The creature that spoke and jumped out from nearby actually looked like a 'human'.

Adult humans.

A flood of data flashed in the High Machine Beast's pupils. Having detected no data leakage from this human body and no residual data left in the Digital World, and after ruling out the influence of Digimon such as transformation, illusion, and phantoms, its tone remained unchanged, but it was actually quite surprised as it said:

"Are you human?"

"You actually know about humans?" The man in the yukata was somewhat surprised, then scratched his naturally curly white hair. "Well, even Zhang Chengyi is in this world, so it's not surprising that he knows about humans."

"You just said that the world is collapsing, right?"

"Yes." The advanced cyborg stared at the human opposite it. "You know Zhang Chengyi?"

“That’s right.” The white-haired, naturally curly man readily agreed, looking up at the sky. “If Zhang Chengyi doesn’t want to leave, could you send me away first?”

Data flashed in the eyes of the advanced cyborg again, and its tone rose slightly: "If you were human, perhaps you could awaken Zhang Chengyi."

Great.

Chapter 517 The 108,000-ton... Ruyi Jingu Bang

In the spacious laboratory corridor.

"My name is Sakata Gintoki."

The white-haired man seemed a little depressed, and took the initiative to speak, "I barely know Zhang Chengyi, how can I get into his bedroom?"

"Many defense mechanisms in the central laboratory use 'data overflow' as a monitoring item."

The advanced robotic beast walked ahead, explaining, "This includes the [Weapon Discard Room]. The door there is made of a special alloy that adjusts its weight based on the amount of data the Digimon pushes it. The first time it opens, it requires pushing away 1.5 times its own data weight, and each subsequent time it increases by 0.5 times. This is a 'mechanism' specially designed by Zhang Chengyi. Each time it opens, it can randomly draw one of the weapons he developed and then discarded..."

After listening, Sakata Gintoki summarized that Zhang Chengyi had come up with a strange lottery mechanism.

But what does that have to do with opening the bedroom door?

The advanced cyborg wasn't a riddle teller and quickly got to the point: "In the weapons scrap room, there exists a Chrono Alloy weapon called the [Wish-Fulfilling Staff]. It can shrink and enlarge based on the amount of input data. When the Wish-Fulfilling Staff is enlarged more than ten times, it has an 'armor-piercing' effect and can break through the enhanced Chrono Alloy."

"If more than 30% of the door to Zhang Chengyi's room is damaged, it will trigger an internal alarm, thus waking him up."

"Because you are human, you don't have much data, so the door you need to push open can't be too heavy. If you can get the Ruyi Wand, you can wake up Zhang Chengyi."

"..."

Sakata Gintoki felt speechless; this process was a bit too gamified.

Those who entered the lab as weapon rewards somehow resembled heroes entering a demon king's castle.

However, Zhang Chengyi, with his wicked personality, is perfectly suited to be the Demon King.

Moreover, he remembered Digimon from an old children's comic book, and the WarGreymon that just fell from the sky looked very familiar.
