Chapter 280 – The Group Reunites

  Jayr(Aegiomon) POV - Digital World, Distorted Area - 2001

  After warning Terriermon and Guilmon about the dangers of eating unknown Data, we all start to hear a particurly lousy singing that is quickly getting clearer and clearer as the ones singing are approag our position.

  Hearing that atrocious singing approag us, Takato excims, "Somebody's ing." making Jianliang wonder, "Who could it be, in a pce like this?" while Juri guesses, "Maybe it's Pucci-sensei's group!"

  Soon, from around the er, we see the figures of Hirokazu aa calmly walking across the streets of this monoatic, distorted town.

  The two also notice our presend Hirokazu starts to wave at us while saying, "Hey, Takato! What a ce!"

  In response, a happy Takato yells, "Hirokazu!" before the two groups run toward oher and Takato says, "I hought I'd find you here!" followed by a relieved Jianliang who ents, "Good thing you found this pce."

  At the same time, Juri notices the figures of Ryo and Cyberdramon walking over and asks, "Who's that?" making Hirokazu proudly reply, "I'm gd you asked! I'll introduce you! This is the legendary Tamer, Akiyama Ryo-san!"

  In respoo that, Ryo humbly says, "Stop that, It's nothing special."

  Takato is thrilled to be meeting Akiyama Ryo himself as he runs closer to him and excims, "Eh? That Akiyama Ryo? For real?" then he points at Cyberdramon and tinues, "Then, that one over there..."

  Ryo looks back at Cyberdramon and introduces him, "My Digimon Partner, Cyberdramon."

  Hearing that, Takato moves closer to Cyberdramon and eedly, "And I'm looking at it so closely..." but soon he regrets it as Cyberdramon starts to growl sg Takato who takes a few steps back as he asks, "What? Is he mad?"

  Ryo calmly walks o Cyberdramon and starts to pat his arm to calm him down as he answers, "Don't worry! Cyberdramon is just looking for his aremy. But I doubt he's here."

  Meanwhile, I hear a curious Terriermon ask Jianliang, "Who's that?"

  Hearing his partner's question, Jianliang calmly answers, "A Tamer who disappeared after the Card Battle Tour st year, Akiyama Ryo. There was a rumor that he had goo the Digital World, but... I hought I'd really meet him here."

  At the same time, Kenta notices my presend asks, "By the way... who is he?" making Juri answer, "He is Aegiomon. A nid kind Digimon we entered some time ago. He helped us when we were in trouble. After we expio him the reason behind our presence, he decided to e with us until we find Culumon and safely return back to the Real World."

  After that, Juri notices that Ruki and I are missing and asks, "Huh? Hey, what happeo Ruki- and Pucci-sensei?"

  At this point, Kenta seems a little downcast as he expins, "Ruki got mad a on her oucci-sensei who didn't want to leave her alone followed after her after telling us to follow Ryo..."

  Hearing that, Takato quickly walks up to Hirokazu and asks, "Hirokazu, did you say something weird to upset her?"

  Something that makes me almost snicker while thinking, 'Well, ohing is sure, Takato knows his friends very well... even if he wasn't there, he quickly uood what happened...'

  At the same time, Hirokazu weakly tries to defend himself, "N-No..." and then Ryo steps forward and decres, "It's... probably my fault."

  But Hirokazu quickly de, "It's not like that! Ryo-san, it's not your fault!"

  At this point, Jianliang asks, "Did something happen?" makia admit, "Hirokazu kept talking about how Ryo-san is better tha Card Battles, and Ruki got upset."

  Hearing that, Takato ents, "Right. Ruki does take pride in her skills..." while Jianliang says, "But she worries me, even if she's with Renamon, Pucci-sensei, and his Digimon Partners."

  But Juri quickly reassures him, "I wouldn't worry. I'm sure Ruki- will be fine. She's strong, after all! And Pucci-sensei is even more!" making Takato admit, "Indeed... I have never seen him, V-mon, Wormmon, or Patamon struggle or worried... It is like everything is always uheir trol and no problem is insurmountable for them, it is very reassuring. I wonder if this is what it means to be an adult...?"

  At this point, Ryo adds, "I just met Pucci-sensei not too long ago. But I fidently tell you that he is a very strong Tamer. So I wouldn't worry about them. I'm sure that yoing to meet them again soon... But if you get caught in a light pilr, you'll end up somewhere crazy, so you better be careful."

  Hearing that st part, Jianliang nods and admits, "Yeah, we're already sick of them."

  After that, Takato asks Ryo if he's seen Culumon, but Ryou hasn't seen him at all.

  Takato then further expins that Culumon might be the key to evolution, and tells Ryo about how the Devas kidnapped him.

  But learning about the Deva's atta Shinjuku worries Ryo about his family, so he asks if anything's happeo his hometown in Kyushu, and Takato replies that nothing has happened.

  roup runs into a castle, which Ryou expins is a good resting spot with bedrooms.

  At this point, the kids finally notice that they're not really that hungry for some reason, and Ryo tells them that eating isn't a y like it is in the real world.

  In the middle of the night, a bunch of Knightmon begin patrolling, but Ryo is unfazed and falls asleep easily while the others are surprised at his bsé attitude.

  At the same time, Takato, uo sleep, looks through his bag and finds a letter from his mother, telling him how he's grown up and that she's left a good luck amulet with the letter, and asking him to have a safe trip aurn safely.

  Juri sees that Takato is upset and guesses what happened, and Takato, seeing Juri worried about him, says that they'll definitely find Culumon aurn safely, he tells her that he's happy that she was able to e along with them.

  The m Ryo leads roup to a spiral staircase making a surprised Takato excims, "A staircase?"

  In respoo that, Ryo simply decres, "We're going down here." which fuses Jianliang as he wonders, "Eh? Shouldn't we go up?" but Ryo calmly expins, "Even though we see the Real World up there, we have to go down."

  Hearing that, Juri 't help but ent, "That's a bit hard to believe." but Ryo smiles brightly as he cheerfully says, "You'll see what I mean if yoing."

  After saying that, Ryo starts to desd the spiral staircase with Cyberdramon and roup follows after him.

  Soon we reach the familiar rge expanse of barre that is the lowest yer aa ents, "You were right, we're back... what a weird staircase."

  But then Jianliang catches the sight of the figures of Makuramon and aern Dragon Digimon flying in the distance seemingly chasing after something, and he isn't the only one as Juri excims, "It's Makuramon!"

  Without wasting any time, Takato starts chasing after them while yelling, "Culumon could be there!" with everyone else following after him.

  As we are running, I focus a moment on the eastern dragon Digimon, whnize as Majiramon, another member of the Deva.

  Majiramon is a Digimon with the appearance of an oriental dragon. Its body is covered with dark green scales, while its belly, neck, and palms have a golden color, it has white hair and whiskers, red eyes, and golden horns.

  Only the torso is covered with violet and brown armor, and on his tail is a strip of red horsehair, but the hairs at the end of its tail are silver, it has six limbs, two arms, and fs and each limb has three fingers.

  Spoiler

  [colpse]While I'm studying the new Deva, I hear Juri reading out the information of Majiramon on her D-Ark, "Majiramon. Perfect Level. One of the "Deva Digimon", it is a Perfect Digimon with a form resembling the Dragon. As a follower of the Four Holy Beasts Digimon Qinglongmon, it is extremely calg and hates to even lift a finger if it won't be itself. However, if it realizes that something will be itself, it will want to poke its head in no matter what the thing is. It has a habit of putting a pri everything, and expressing various matters by their cost in money. During the battle, it shoots through the oppo with the Bǎo Shǐ, which are the hairs of its tail and whiskers transformed (Ially, one Bǎo Shǐ is worth ¥5,000). Its Special Move is disappearing into the ter of a swirl of light summoned in the sky, then firing 108 shining Bǎo Shǐ, burying a horde of oppos in just an instant (Vedhaka)."

  Soon Makuramon and Majiramon take notice of roup, and at the same time, Cyberdramon, who once again goes berserk, and charges after the two Digimon making Ryo yell, "Cyberdramon!" before he mutters, "Whenever he sees a strong enemy, he won't even listen to me. It's no use..."

  Once close enough, Cyberdramon stops and spreads its arms wide before it swipes them in front of its body briefly ripping open the fabric of space whes cws pass, then it gathers such destructive energy between its two hands and fires an energy wave at the flying Majiramon while yelling, "Erase Cw!"

  Cyberdramon's energy wave hits Majiramon but it isn't strong enough to actually damage it, which tells us quite a bit about the Deva defensive power as su attack is usually powerful enough to partially delete the oppo's digital structure.

  At the same time, Makuramon clearly annoyed by the fact that we interrupted their search for Culumon, looks at us and yells "The acts of some fools turhousand years of history into dust. Majiramon, elimihem!" before he jumps down from Majiramon's head as away from the battlefield.

  After Makuramon jumped down, Majiramon didn't hesitate to roar and fly up in the sky before disappearing into a swirl of red light in the sky from which it fired 108 shining red arrow-like beams at Cyberdramon, who uhis assault fell on his knee making Ryo yell in worry, "Cyberdramon!"

  After this attack, Majiramon es out from the swirl of red light and dives toward Cyberdramon with the i of finishing it off.

  Seeing Cyberdramon struggle under Majiramon's attacks, Leomon charges in, and at the same time, Takato and Jianliang also send in Guilmon and Terriermon and evolve them via Option Card.

  Leomon jumps up positioning himself in front of Majiramon as he pulls back his right arm.

  The moment, Leomon yells, "Juouken!" and with a pung motion he unches an aura in the shape of a lion's head from its fist which hits the Deva in the face, but Majiramo even flin respoo that attad tio dive toward Cyberdramon.

  Quickly after Leomon, Galgomon tries to stop the Deva by attag it with his Dum Dum Upper, an uppercut bined with its teique Gatling Arm, so that it deliver a close bat punch with the increased power of the bullets fired by his vuls, but this teique isn't able to do anything to stop or even slow down Majiramon.

  Following Galgomon's attempt, the st oo make a move is Growmon who develops psma along one of the bdes on his elbows, then sshes with it to unleash an intense energy bde that flies toward Majiramon, but again, the energy bde simply bounces off from the Deva's scales.

  Seeing that their attacks 't do anything, Takato excims in panic, "Their attacks aren't w!" followed by Jianliang who ents, "It is to!"

  Meanwhile, Majiramohes golden fmes from its mouth and scrotches the ground f Growmon, Galgomon, and Leomon to disperse, before it nds in front of us making the kids panic even more.

  At this point, I decide to make my move, I manipute the Data within my body to gee powerful electricity from my arms, gather enough energy within my powerful goat legs, and without aation, I jump toward Majiramon's face as a worried Takato behind me yells, "Aegiomon!"

  I arrive in front of my target and with a smile on my face, I call out the name of the Special Move imprinted in my Digicore, "Stu Blow!" delivering a powerful electricity-enhanced punch as Majiramon dismisses my attack just like it did for everyone else before.

  But as soon as my fist impacted onto the left side of its face, I ehe sight of its eyes growing bigger as I felt its powerful flesh giving way to my fist and its head starting to turn, in addition to that, I also feel the electricity released from my fist run into its body numbing it and dulling its movements making even more difficult for the Deva to move its body in a way to reduce the impad power of my attack.

  In the end, Mejiramon only shout in pain and disbelief as I follow through with my pund send its mountain-sized body crashing to the ground.

  Of course, Majiramon isn't the only one surprised by what just happened, as the kids behind me also express their surprise, disbelief, and awe about the se they just witnessed.

  "Awesome...! Do you think he would let one of us bee his Tamer?"

  "Where does he hide all that power in that small body?"

  "H-He sent Mejiramon flying with a single punch when Leomon, Growmon, Galgomon, and even Cyberdramon weren't able to do anything against it..."

  "Oh my god! I dismissed Aegiomon before for his cute appearance. But he looks even more powerful than Ryo-san's Cyberdramon!"

  "Well, the Digimon Analyzer did tell us that Aegiomon ceals within unquantified power... but this... this very impressive, almost unbelievable."

  "I've entered many powerful Digimon in these 10 months or so... but Aegiomon is truly exceptional... This is good. At least I don't have to use the Device Card as I don't want to use those wild cards if possible."

  While the group of kids marvels at my feat of strength, I don't give Mejiramon any time to recover and with decisiveness, I kick the air as if is solid ground with such force that I start to dive toward the Deva still stunned on the ground by the bined effects of the impad the electricity released by my Stu Blow.

  As I'm quickly diving toward my target, I start to spin my body in mid-air to gather even more power and moment while at the same time, I manipute the Data within my body to reinforce my legs even more, and then, once I'm about to hit Mejiramon, I yell "Iron Trust!!"

  Soon after calling out the name of my Special Move, I hurl a devastating spinning hoof kick with my right leg that creates a very wide crater on impad instantly obliterates Mejiramon's body into motes of Data that I stealthily gather, purify, and use to reform the Digicore and Digitama before quickly telep it to my Main Body where I'll send it to the Vilge of Beginnings in my Soulbouory.

  At the same time, seeing me easily defeat Majiramon, Makuramo hesitate to flee from the area as fast as possible.

  But just before the kids enjoy the victory, Cyberdramos out a growl and tio act violently, f Ryou to use his D-Ark to create an energy whip to try to restrain him while yelling, "Cyberdramon! Wait!"

  Seeing that, Takato asks, "What's wrong with Cyberdramon?" making Ryo expin, "He's dying for a fight! He wants to find another oppo. He'll keep fighting until his instincts are satisfied. Cyberdramon is that kind of Digimon."

  While Ryo is saying that, Cyberdramon tio growl and it is clear that he is barely restraining himself from running out on his own, in fact, from time to time, I also feel that his hostility is briefly directed at me, but then it quickly vanish as he focuses on Digimon who are further away from here, it almost feels like he is having a battle with himself.

  Soon, Ryo cludes his speech about this situation, "When he's like this, nothing stop him! We split up here. You guys search for that Digimon called "Culumon" and save the Real World. I'd really like to help, but I 't until he settles down."

  At this point, Cyberdramon 't hold himself any longer and starts to rush ahead with Ryo following after him as we all salute him and wish him well.

  Zhuqiaomon POV - Digital World, Domain of the Four Holy Beasts - 2001

  Sensing what just happened in the Lowest Layer of the Digital World, I 't help but let out a sigh and ent, "Another one of my Deva has beeed by those disgusting humans and the treacherous Digimon that chose to stand by their side."

  At this point, I feel my rage simmering as I remember all those that failed until now, "Kumbhiramon, Vajramon, Mihiramon, Majiramon, Sandiramon, Indaramon, Pajiramon, Sinduramon, and Sinduramon... 9! Already 9 Deva meet their end at the hands of those humans! I'm left with only 3 of them!!"

  I quickly reing in my rage as this whole realm started to shake and it is foolish to damage everything in my fury as this will only further help our real enemy.

  After calming down, I start to think about the current situation and my move, 'At this point, it is clear that the Deva aren't powerful enough... every single one of them that I sent to retrieve the Digi-Entelechia has failed. The Digi-Entelechia is fual for us, we have to use its power to further evolve so that we have a better ce of repelling our true enemy. I need something more powerful than them if I want to recover the Digi-Entelechia and elimihose humans and their traitimon.' Thinking once again about those humans and their Digimon, I 't help but feel my rage simmer once more, 'How dare they work together with those humans! The same humans who created reatest enemy! The enemy who almost destroyed the whole Digital World before and that we were able to repel only after great sacrifices! The ehat is once again threatening the lives of all the Digimon! How they even rely on humans to evolve after they have done all that to us!? It's portentous!! I 't allow this to tinue any longer! I feel it! Our true enemy is starting to move once again! I must do whatever it takes to protect the Digital World from it!'

  Finally, I resolve myself to follow Caturamon's suggestion and create a better and strimon that will follow my orders, Digimon fully capable of eliminating those humans and their Digimon ond for all without giving them any more ces, I need merciless hunters with the ultimate bat power.

  With that resolution, I do not hesitate anymore and start to use my influence over the Digital World to gather as many data packets as possible.

  After all the data packets gather together in front of me f a messy amalgamation of Data, I also do not hesitate to ask some Digimon within my realm to willingly sacrifice part of their Data to me so that I create the most powerful hunters possible.

  Once I have all the ingredients, I quickly get to work and soon the messy amalgamation of Data splits into two parts as I create the Digicores.

  Shortly after that, a storm of Data appears in front of me as the figure of two Digimon start to form around the two Digicores.

  At the same I watch the shadowy figures of the two Digimon that barely be seen withiorm of Data, I and, "Once you are plete, I want you to search for the Digi-Entelechia and bring it here. In addition, I want you to elimihe humans that call themselves Tamers and their traitorous Digimon!"

  Jayr (Aegiomon) POV - Digital World, Lowest Layer - 2001

  After the battle with Majiramon, we find a cave and use it as a pce to rest, and soon after they decide on the orders of those who have to stay up as guards, the kids and the imon start to sleep while I focus a little on my Godly activities in other universes.

  At the same time, after searg around for some time, my Main Body's group finally finds another exit to the Gears Area and ends up in a strange forest, where I find a bunch of DigiGnomes flying around, and after walking for some time, we also find a pce to rest.

  In the middle of the night, as I tio answer some prayers and give some guidaakato wakes up Guilmon so they switch guard with Terriermon and Jianliang and hear him wonder where Ruki and I are before he focuses on watg the surroundings.

  The m Takato and Jianliang decide that the best thing to do is to return to the spot with the fg in the hopes of finding us, and on our way there Hirokazu aa muse that they're not getting along very well with Ruki, but Juri says that she likes her.

  Hirokazu aa attribute Ruki not liking them to the fact they don't have Digimon partners, but Leomon says that they'll probably find them soon, although he soon reveals to Juri that he just wao keep their hopes up.

  After walking for a few hours, the group arrives at our destination and finds that the fg is gone, and Guilmon catches Culumon's st.

  Realizing that Culumon must have escaped the Deva and taken the fg, Takato cludes that Culumon must be looking for them as well, but suddenly the enviro in the Digital World starts to go haywire as freak storms appear all of a sudden.

  This straorm that is affeg this area makes me remember that at this point, because of what happened in Shinjuku, a bunch of gover agents look over the se at the Hypnos headquarters, iigating what's left after Yamaki was removed from his position, and then they carelessly reactivate the systems, causing Shaggai to start up aing in this storm.

  To avoid more light pilrs, roup takes refuge in a nearby cave found by Guilmon, and once safe Leomon says that the world has bee strange ever sihe storms began.

  At the same time, the unicator that Yamaki gave Takato begins to light up, and Takato sends an email telling him that we're doing well.

  After doing that, those crazy winds in the Digital World stop, and the unicator turns off making Takato wonder if his email went through.

  Meanwhile, my Main Body is now expl the area with Patamon, Wormmon, and V-mon leaving behind Ruki and Renamon to rest.

  I still keep some of my serained on them and sehat Ruki finds the DigiGnomes and asks Renamon what the strange creatures are, in response, Renamon says that they're not Digimon befoing off to find food.

  After some time, when Ruki pins that she's thirsty, the DigiGnomes suddenly grab Ruki and lead her to a ke, but the appearance of a rge wave suddenly scares the creatures away and Ruki is pulled dowream.

  Sensing that, I start to run toward her, but I don't hurry too much as she is about to be saved by her than Culumon.

  Before they fully celebrate their reunion, Renamon suddenly arrives and pushes Ruki and Culumon away as a tidal wave catches hold of them, I also jump in the wave with my Digimon fully knowing that it is, in fact, a gateway to the Lowest Layer and ihe wave suddenly turns into a powerful gayser that sends us flying out of this area and ba the sky of the Lowest Layer.

  Ruki's stress over Renamon's safety and Culumon's presence makes Renamon evolve into Kyuubimon, who saves them and points out that they're ba the part of the Digital World they first arrived in, of course, because of their panic, they do not notice that I simply floated down beside them.

  After they calm dowart to head back toward the pce where Hirokazu aa phe Digimon Tamers fg.

  At this point, Guilmon sehat Culumon is ing towards roup, and we're sooed with my Main Body, V-mon, Wormmon, Patamon, Ruki, Kyuubimon, and Culumon.
