Chapter 92: “I Was Clearly First, So Why?!”

Chapter 92: "I Was Clearly First, So Why?!"

They failed.

Neither the Digimon at the Mature level created using a single strand of hair and a Dark Tower, nor the Perfect-level ones created using ten strands of hair and ten Dark Towers, could defeat the chosen children and their partners.

Even Achillimon and Mummymon, both Perfect-level Digimon who personally joined the battle, were ultimately forced to retreat in defeat.

"I'm going to use one hundred Dark Towers to create an absolutely powerful Digimon!"

Achillimon wasn't just thinking this—she put it into action. Riding in the jeep driven by Mummymon, she arrived at a mountain where one hundred Dark Towers stood tall.

Hair was flung as if it cost nothing, fusing with each Dark Tower. Although the number mentioned was one hundred, in truth, the mountains were filled with far more than that—though not yet reaching a thousand—so calling it one hundred was still appropriate.

The Dark Towers gradually vanished, and the massive data formed began to converge atop the mountain, where the shadow of a colossal humanoid dragon began to take shape.

"Stop them!"

Of course, the chosen children couldn't allow this to happen. They immediately evolved and launched an attack toward the mountain peak.

However, with just a wave of its hand, the giant shadow generated a shockwave that instantly took out Pegasusmon and Nefertimon, rendering them incapable of fighting.

The shadow rapidly shrank until it stood at about three meters tall. That iconic armor and form—combined with its unmatched aura—stirred memories deep within Kari and T.K. from their childhood.

"WarGreymon?!"

WarGreymon—the absolute MVP of the original season's battles. Unlike the mostly irrelevant bug, bird, fish, and flower Digimon with nearly no notable victories, and unlike those who would go rogue every now and then, he was the true clutch player. He soloed two of the Dark Masters—MetalSeadramon and Machinedramon—and even blasted Piedmon into MagnaAngemon's Gate of Destiny, completing a triple kill.

WarGreymon was the symbol of invincibility.

"No—it's Dark WarGreymon!"

As Achillimon laughed maniacally, Dark WarGreymon emerged.

The second-generation protagonists had never experienced the original adventures and had never witnessed WarGreymon's power. Naturally, they couldn't grasp just how powerful Dark WarGreymon was.

Rapidmon and Ankylomon were instantly defeated when they charged forward. Even Paildramon, who everyone had pinned their hopes on, was effortlessly crushed in mere moments.

Throughout the entire battle, Dark WarGreymon didn't even use a special move—he simply unleashed his raw power.

Invincible. A true war god!

"Well done!"

Achillimon pointed at the unconscious children and Digimon, issuing a command: "Now kill them all, and destroy this world!"

But Dark WarGreymon's response was unexpected.

"I refuse."

He didn't even spare Achillimon a glance when he said it.

Before she could respond, Mummymon—her number one sycophant—exploded in rage.

"You bastard! Is that how you speak to your mother?!"

Achillimon's hair had been the key to activating Dark WarGreymon. The Dark Towers had also been created under her control by Ken Ichijouji. Under normal logic, yes—she could be considered his "mother." But... these weren't original Dark Towers.

"You have no right to command me. I only fought them because they attacked me first."

"If you keep running your mouth, I'll end you."

Dark WarGreymon never once focused his gaze on the two. He didn't even consider them worth killing.

That was simply his nature. As the "Black Dragon Warrior," he fought only for his own concept of justice. He despised cowardice and dirty tactics and didn't view other virus-type Digimon as comrades.

"Why aren't you leaving? What are you waiting for?"

Achillimon, although furious, also sensed something was off with Dark WarGreymon.

"He's waiting for me."

A new, unfamiliar voice cut in. A human boy appeared suddenly before all the Digimon.

"I've been waiting for you... partner."

Yamucha softly spoke to Dark WarGreymon.

At this time, Type-2 Polymon was not with him, hiding instead in the shadows as a trump card.

Faced with this unexpected human, Mummymon immediately became alert, while Achillimon noticed something peculiar—when Yamucha said the word "partner," Dark WarGreymon visibly radiated joy.

Partner?!

How could that be?!

Dark WarGreymon was created by me! How could he be another human's partner?

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

And yet, the reply from Dark WarGreymon was something Achillimon simply couldn't understand.

"Me too, partner!"

In that moment, Achillimon's heart shattered.

"You're mine! I was clearly first!"

Achillimon felt like she was losing her mind.

Just like the saying goes—"You may scheme all you want, but in the end, someone else wears the wedding dress." That was exactly what was happening to her now.

"I'm going to kill you all!"

Achillimon charged at them recklessly—but before she could even touch Yamucha, she was stopped.

By Dark WarGreymon!

"What are you trying to do to my partner?!"

Just because he didn't find them worth killing didn't mean he'd allow them to act up in front of him.

Dark WarGreymon's raw killing intent chilled Achillimon to her core. Being targeted by a powerful Ultimate-level Digimon was never a pleasant experience.

"Partner, your true opponents should be stronger beings—not these small fry."

Dark WarGreymon fought purely for victory. Battle was his purpose. He was Yamucha's favorite bodyguard, and that was the only reason he had stayed in this world so long.

That's why he had Type-2 Polymon modify the Dark Towers and even include data from Momotaro Rice Balls.

"Let me give a little demonstration."

As Yamucha finished speaking, two Digimon slowly appeared.

A Guardromon and a Mechanorimon.

Guardromon: mass-produced, Mature-level Digimon, mechanical type, used for guarding digital network firewalls.

Mechanorimon: mass-produced, Mature-level Digimon, transport type.

Compared to self-aware Digimon, Yamucha preferred these two from the Steel Empire because they were easier to control.

Still, Dark WarGreymon was just too good to pass up. That's why Yamucha had started his entire setup from the Dark Towers.

The only regret was that Yamucha hadn't found the Steel Empire ruins. The Guardromon and Mechanorimon were "borrowed" from Andromon's factory. If only he could mass-produce them in the Dragon Ball world, he could form a powerful army in no time.

"Small fry? You're calling us small fry?"

Seeing the two Mature-level Digimon standing in her way, Achillimon was so angry she started laughing.

"Human, who gave you the confidence to think that these two pieces of trash could take us on?"
