Digital Hackers' Memories

"Is she dead?"

Instinctively gathering the surrounding flames to reassemble its form, the palm-sized white fire beast floated in the air and asked this question.

"I don't know, but even if she doesn't die, she must be seriously injured."

Slowly emerging from the shadows of the subway station, Renamon X first examined the "miniature form" of the white Flamemon before shaking its head and speaking.

"Speaking of which, your outburst just now really gave me a big fright."

Seemingly aware of the height issue, the white flame beast looked up at the fox beast X and then began to absorb the surrounding flames with greater intensity, attempting to restore its original height in a short period of time.

However, the "flame impact" had consumed too much heat and flame, and no matter how much the white flame beast burned itself, it only recovered from the size of a palm to the size of an arm.

"I'm not one of those princesses who needs a knight to save me..."

Without exposing the White Flame Beast's intentions, Renamon X simply tilted its head slightly, a barely perceptible smile playing on its lips.

"Even if you don't come out, I have ways to deal with her."

Rolling its eyes in exasperation, the White Flame Beast, which also saw through the Foxmon X's stubbornness, chose not to expose the other party, but simply shook its head noncommittally.

"Yes, yes, how could you possibly be that kind of delicate princess? You're clearly a Valkyrie with maxed-out combat skills!"

“I can tell now, this time you’re calling me barbaric and violent.”

With a slight pout, Rei-Fox Beast X seemed to dislike White Flame Beast's comments about her, so she immediately retorted.

"You call me violent and barbaric? Your behavior just now was the real act of madness."

Even Renamon X, who has experienced countless battles, has never recklessly confronted a fully evolved form head-on while in its mature stage.

Or rather, in Renamon X's battle philosophy, a head-on confrontation is always the worst possible strategy.

Because there is never a shortage of people stronger than you in this world, how to defeat the strong with the weak is what a warrior should truly learn.

"A madman? I just have confidence in my own abilities."

Completely ignoring Renamon X's sarcastic remarks, White Flamemon, after determining the winner, habitually started bickering with its opponent.

"Confidence? I think it's just plain arrogance..."

Before Reijou X could finish speaking, a sudden gust of wind swept through the subway station, which had just returned to calm.

call!

The sudden appearance of this gale came without any warning, and it swept through the entire subway station as soon as it appeared, blowing away the broken walls and rubble.

"Actually ran away?"

As the gale appeared, a pitch-black spatial rift suddenly materialized where the Lilac Beast had vanished.

"Foxmon, we meet again."

Across a spatial rift, the Sword Emperor Beast, radiating an imposing aura, murmured with a half-smile.

Although the volume wasn't very high, SwordEmperor's voice entered Renamon X and Whiteflamemon's ears with incredible clarity, as if it were being spoken right next to their ears.

"Sword...Emperor...Beast..."

As it uttered the words "Sword Emperor Beast" slowly and deliberately, the previously relaxed Fox Beast X stared at the dark spatial rift as if it were facing a formidable enemy, as if it had entered a dragon's den or a tiger's lair.

In fact, the Sword Emperor Beast is far more terrifying than an ordinary tiger.

So terrifying was that even before it descended upon this world, its BOSS-like aura had already rendered the fox spirit X immobile.

"I'm honored that you remember me, but you don't seem to welcome me."

At this point, the Sword Emperor Beast on the other side of the rift turned its eyes and looked at the White Flame Beast, who was also on high alert.

"Aren't you surprised by my appearance, a 'mutant' from another world?"

Unlike the previous Sword Emperor Beast NX, the Sword Emperor Beast that appeared in its true form, even without showing any killing intent, was far more powerful than Sword Emperor Beast NX.

"This is... the Ultimate form?!"

The flames on its body surface kept going out and reigniting. The white flame beast gritted its teeth, trying to regain its fighting power, but its body continued to shrink uncontrollably.

Flame is the power of the Flame Beast, and its size symbolizes the strength of its power.

The white flame beast's shrinking size not only indicates that its power is being constantly weakened, but also signifies the fear that has arisen within it.

"Chen Ze..."

Seeing this, Renamon X bravely withstood the aura of SwordEmperormon and carefully stood in front of the White Flamemon, which had already lost its power.

"I'll buy you some time, and you can take the opportunity to leave this space."

"The Sword Emperor Beast cannot appear in the human world for the time being, so you will be safe once you leave here."

"Don't worry, the Sword Emperor Beast won't kill me. I'm still of value to it."

"But not necessarily for you, it will definitely kill you..."

At this point, the fox-like beast paused slightly before continuing softly.

“I will wait for you to come and save me, just like those princesses who wait for knights to rescue them.”

Chapter Sixty-Two: The Wrathful War God - Asura Beast

"knight?"

Staring blankly at Renamon X's back, White Flamemon's deepest fear quickly turned into anger.

I'm not normal right now!

It should be noted that although Chen Ze is not a particularly audacious person, having served two different people, he would never be so cowardly.

Since his first transformation into Agumon, Chen Ze has experienced quite a few battles, if not many.

Even when facing the most powerful enemy, Chen Ze never backed down.

Just like when facing the fully-formed Lilac Beast, even though he knew he was no match, Chen Ze still resolutely adopted a fighting style that was almost a fight to the death.

If it weren't for Renamon X's timely appearance, the outcome of the battle between Whiteflamemon and Lilacmon would likely have been uncertain.

However, Chen Ze, who possessed the courage to perish together with his opponent, couldn't help but feel fear the moment he saw the Sword Emperor Beast in its true form.

It was this fear that caused the white flame beast's power to diminish significantly, to the point that it could no longer even maintain its own form—this was clearly not a normal phenomenon.

This brings to mind the time when Swordmon NX appeared and dealt a blow to Renamon X, effectively reducing its intelligence.

A guess vaguely surfaced in the mind of the white flame beast: the sword-king beast possessed a special ability to attack the mind and destroy emotions.

............................................................................................................

"Fox Strike!"

Little did they know that the white flame beast had thought of so many things in less than a second.

Without hesitation, Renamon X, having made a desperate gamble, transformed into a blurry phantom and charged toward the other dimension where SwordEmperormon was located.

boom!

Powerful feet shattered the ground, sharp claws tore through the air...

In the blink of an eye, Renamon X traversed several meters, meeting SwordEmmon's slightly contemptuous gaze with a fearless and forward-looking attitude.

This kind of head-on charge... doesn't really fit Renamon X's fighting style.

But at this moment, she was willing to use this method to buy Chen Ze time to escape.

“I will wait for you to come and save me, just like those princesses who wait for knights to rescue them.”

Hearing the voice in his ear, the white flame beast was startled awake from his daze, and the flames around him reignited with his anger.

"A true knight would never allow the princess he protects to fall into the heart of a demon king."

With a roar of white flames, his anger as a human being was transformed into data.

As a result, the digital core that received this angry data underwent a new mutation.

tumultuous!

With just one dash, the "Mini-form" White Flamemon caught up with Renamon X, who was charging forward.

Moreover, during this process, the white flame beast's body rapidly expanded and multiplied, instantly returning to its original normal size, and it continued to grow larger.

"I may not know what secrets you are hiding, but that cannot be a reason for me to abandon my companions!"

White Flame Beast already knew that Renamon X was hiding a huge secret.

A mysterious trip to Light Hill, a persistent mutated invader, and the Sword Emperor Beast's attitude towards her...

The white flame beast wasn't stupid; it could naturally see that it was the innocent bystander caught in the crossfire.

The reason why White Flame Beast didn't question the other party was simply because of its trust in Renamon X, not because it hadn't discovered anything.

The white flame beast didn't question Renamon X because it wanted to prove one thing to the other—no matter what secrets you're hiding, it won't affect our current friendship.

"Chen Ze! You idiot!"

Seeing that the white flame beast had overtaken it and was charging towards the sword king beast, the fox beast X was shocked and couldn't help but let out an angry shout.

"Haha! Same here."

The angry roar turned into a wild laugh, and the white flame beast that had charged towards SwordEmbomon X ahead of Renamon X delivered a flame blast, pushing her off her original charging path.

As for the White Flame Beast itself?

Because they absorbed too much angry data, Agumon and Piccolo's Digicores reached their critical points almost simultaneously.

tumultuous!

And then, the "evolution program" that had been prepared all along was activated!

White Flame Beast - Evolution...

The anger transformed into a tangible flame, and the arrogant arrogance evolved into an inextinguishable ring of fire...

With the continuous influx of data, the fire beast, which was originally just a ball of flame, solidified into a physical form at a visible speed.

His dark skin gleamed with a metallic sheen, and his outstretched arms exuded a thunderous majesty...

However, compared to its majestic four-armed form, what truly catches the eye is its "one head and three faces" divine image.

Just like the legendary Asura, after the burning flames went out, three faces suddenly grew out of the place where the head was.

An angry face, a compassionate face, and a serene face...

This is the new form of the White Flame Beast after its evolution, and it is also the complete form that evolved by embodying the power of anger.

—Ashuramon!

boom! boom! boom! boom!

As soon as the three-faced, four-armed Asura Beast appeared, it unleashed a series of powerful punches with lightning speed, slamming them hard into the Sword Emperor Beast on the other side of the rift.

—Asura God Fist!

I don't seek to defeat or injure the Sword Emperor Beast.

The Asura Beast's sole purpose was to temporarily force the opponent back, causing the spatial rift to disappear automatically due to the loss of its power.

This is not impossible.

Thanks to Renamon X's reminder, Ashuramon noticed that although SwordEmmon had appeared, its true form had not yet truly entered this world.

It's not that it doesn't want to, but that it can't.

The human world is inherently different from the online world. Even in this eroded semi-digital space, it is not an easy task to withstand the arrival of an ultimate being.

Not to mention that before it disappeared, Lilacmon also extracted most of the Digiwaves from the subway station to refine the Philosopher's Stone.

"Make your move, Sword Emperor Beast!"

Having figured this out, all three faces of the Asura Beast simultaneously revealed a provocative expression.

There's no need to defeat the Sword Emperor Beast. As long as you can provoke it and render it unable to maintain the existence of this spatial rift, this place will be safe for the time being.

"Insanity!"

Whether it was because it sensed Ashuramon's intentions or not, the surprise on SwordEmperormon's face vanished in an instant, replaced by a deep look of disdain.

So what if the opponent temporarily evolves into an Asura Beast?
