Agumon who wants to become Omegamon

Once my post-holiday blues subside a bit, I'll start going full speed ahead; it won't take too long... Sorry again.

Chapter 46 Incompetent Teammates and Choices

Endless smoke and dust spread here, filling the place with the smell of gunpowder.

Faced with this level of impact, MagnaGidmon's teammates had already fallen, lying sprawled on the ground. Only the two combatants remained suspended in mid-air, though they too appeared somewhat disheveled.

MagnaGidmon's wing-like scarf was broken in half, its bright red exterior cracked and covered in dust; in comparison, Armoredmon looked much better, with only minor damage to its outer armor.

The crotch of her shorts was ripped.

Once the two are compared, the difference becomes clear.

~~

MagnaGidmon was panting heavily, its eyes slightly unfocused—a sign of sudden, excessive energy depletion, much like an athlete recovering from a long-distance run. Given time, it could recover, but…

Clang one

Armored Beast slowly raised the combined "Kikorin," its blade flashing with a chilling light.

Looking at MagnaGidmon, my heart sank... This was clearly a sign that it was going to kill me!

"and many more!"

MagnaGidmon stretched out a hand from mid-air, feeling that it could still be saved, and decided to talk to Armoredmon...

However······

Just because you tell me to wait, does that mean I have to wait?

Does murder even require an auspicious day?

The Armored Kingmon watched MagnaGeedmon's actions indifferently, but did not hesitate to swing its sword.

A dark sword aura surged forth once more, but this time it wasn't "Phoenix Strike." With its keen eyesight, Armored Kingmon could clearly see that MagnaGeedmon was at its last gasp and could be defeated and killed with a single, gentle strike. Therefore, Armored Kingmon...

The Royal Beast's attack was just a normal slash with added energy, not even qualifying as "Phoenix Fire Slash".

Even such an attack posed a deadly danger to MagnaGidmon.

He had no intention of sitting and waiting to die. He barely raised his arm, and a green light source was gathering. However, the light source was flickering, obviously because the energy supply was insufficient, or even whether it could be emitted at all.

Before MagnaGidmon could even fire its plasma bombs, which could misfire at any moment, six combined attacks intercepted it.

Those are MagnaGidden's teammates!

"Captain, we're here!" x6

The combined attack of the six paths shattered the Armored Beast's slash and headed straight for the Armored Beast itself, and then...

It got crushed...

Although these six combined attacks were not just for show, the Armored Beast was far stronger and crushed them with a single hand without even using its sword.

This is an absolute gap!

"Now we don't have to search them one by one..."

"They're going to be wiped out in one fell swoop..."

Both voices rang out simultaneously. Armoredmon's eyes were cold, and it grinned menacingly, while MagnaGidmon's voice was low and somewhat silent.

"Captain, we're giving you time. You should leave now!"

The two Ultimate-level MagnaGidmon at the forefront exchanged a resolute glance, their faces filled with determination, and spoke in unison. Clearly, they were prepared to cover the rear...

Hmm... true friendship is revealed in times of trouble; their friendship is absolutely top-notch.

Seeing this, Armored Kingmon nodded admiringly. If it were him, unless his teammates were the original Agumons, he would definitely have made the decision to let his teammates take the fall, even those who seemed to get along well with him now.

The Noble Pumpkin Beast and his companions...

"You can't stop him!"

However, MagnaGidmon stopped the two Ultimates that were preparing to cover him, as well as the other Ultimates that were trying to pull him away, and said in a deep voice after shaking his head.

It wasn't just that he didn't want his two teammates to die in vain; he also clearly knew how powerful the Ultimate form could become at this stage!

A large amount of data does not necessarily mean strong combat power, but strong combat power is definitely characterized by a large amount of data!

Now, having been able to contend with Armoredmon only in their prime, they no longer possess the strength to directly confront MagnaGeedmon after MagnaGeedmon was severely injured. This means they no longer have the ability to fight against Armoredmon.

After all, Armoredmon is not like the Dark Digimon that was defeated by Holy-type angels in the original series. Its essence is a Dragonman type Digimon, so even if the power of light can affect it, it will be negligible.

Unless we get someone with a special attack against dragons, like a dragon slayer...

It seems that WarGreymon's "Dragon Slayer" is specifically designed to target dragons...

However, this still poses no threat to Armoredmon, which evolved from WarGreymon!

"He is quite reasonable."

Armored Kingmon nodded reservedly. Just as MagnaGeedmon had said, he had already defeated two ordinary Ultimate-level monsters when he was at the Perfect level, let alone after evolving to Ultimate level, where his strength underwent a qualitative change.

From the current Armored Beast.

Killing two ordinary Ultimate-level Pokémon, even when they're injured, is basically one-shotting them with a single sword strike, and then you can easily catch up.

Upon hearing this, MagnaGidmon's teammates fell silent, not only because of their captain's words, but also because of Armoredmon's words.

“If you want to kill someone…” MagnaGeedmon stepped forward, its eyes fixed intently on KingGreymon, “Just kill me, then let them go!”

"team leader!"

"We'll fight him to the death!"

"Exactly! Even if he dies, we'll splatter him with blood!"

Suddenly, the voices of the Ultimate-level beings became noisy, their eyes glaring resentfully at Armored Beast.

"Ha, ridiculous!" Noticing their gazes, Armored Kingmon ignored them but spoke to MagnaGeedmon, "You came here because of your greed, but you think you can just get away with this because you're not strong enough?"

A single retreat?

boom-

An invisible aura erupted from Armored Beast, causing the air temperature to drop sharply. It was a killing intent that almost formed a domain, evidence of Armored Beast's emergence from endless battles, and also his power.

Although domains are rare, some Digimon do possess them, such as Azuryomon and Cherubimon, whose domains unleash a torrent of lightning.

"I can offer up my precious Ultimate-level data and items!"

MagnaGidmon still wanted to work hard. As the Ultimate level of the Three Gunners, he was a relatively powerful Digimon, and naturally had accumulated a considerable fortune. While the stats of an Ultimate level Digimon might not be much, his physical attributes were...

Materials and props are rare items.

For example, extremely high-purity Chrono Digizoid. The higher the purity, the better its properties. Such high-purity Chrono Digizoid is a rare item, and obtaining it is difficult, at least for a monster like Armored Kingmon.

To obtain a Digimon, one must pay a price akin to sacrificing one's own flesh.

However, as mentioned before, there are different levels of Ultimate-level items, depending on the Digimon's needs. But general-purpose items, such as Chrono Digizoid, are still quite valuable.

These items are clearly rare treasures that you might not even get by killing MagnaGidmon.

Hmm... that's negotiable.

After all, treasures are captivating...

But there is actually a very basic bottom line, which is the bottom line that both Armoredmon and MagnaGeemon agree on: MagnaGeemon's life!

For Armoredmon, allowing an enemy Digimon that poses a threat to its abilities to roam freely is a bad idea. If it becomes seriously injured, these Digimon it defeated but didn't kill might hold a grudge and specifically target Armoredmon.

That would be a real headache.

Therefore, even if Armoredmon doesn't want the treasures MagnaGeedmon has accumulated, it must still kill him!

As for MagnaGidmon, although he was going to die, it was impossible for him not to have any regrets or negative emotions. However, if his death could save the life of his close companion, then it was not something he could not consider.

Although MagnaGeemon is a self-centered Digimon, once you become its partner, just like Revolvermon around the world, MagnaGeemon will treat you with utmost sincerity.

Trading MagnaGidmon's life and treasure for the lives of a few mere ordinary Ultimate-level monsters doesn't seem so bad...

Armored Beast's eyes narrowed slightly as it secretly pondered this headhunting deal. No matter how it looked at it, it seemed that killing only MagnaGidmon would be more profitable!

As one of the strongest Ultimate-level beasts, Armored Kingmon wasn't afraid of any potential retaliation from these six Ultimate-level beasts. After all, his rate of growth far surpassed the experience gained by these ordinary Ultimate-level beasts over the years.

Even if they become powerful after countless years and come to seek revenge on the Armored Beast—no!—Huangfu Future, they will have had time to grow stronger. Perhaps Huangfu Future will become far stronger than them.

Leaving aside Huangfu's ultimate goal of Omegamon, even if we take a step back, he can accept that Gallantmon, which is a descendant of the Four Great Dragons, can directly evolve into Destroyermon.

In terms of race alone, it is one of the top in the world. With the current Ogremon X, it is not impossible for it to challenge the never-before-seen Destroyermon X in the future!

After all, for a force of "Dragon's Roar" caliber, as long as its core inheritance site isn't destroyed and it's given time to recuperate, its ultimate forms will still reappear in the world in other ways.

Although its strength will be much weaker than its predecessor, it can still recover to a certain extent in terms of the number of Ultimate forms.

Even with these tools left behind by their predecessors, it's not easy to advance to the Ultimate level, and there are very few that can bear the powerful legacy of the Ultimate level.

Otherwise, Gallantmon wouldn't be valuing just one "Successor - Huangfu Future" anymore, and he wouldn't have come all the way from the Digital World to the Dark Area to act as Huangfu Future's backer!

It is precisely because there are almost no Digimon capable of carrying his legacy within "Dragon's Roar" that he values ​​it so much.

Just as Armored Beast was pondering -

"Armored Beast!"

A roar came from afar, accompanied by a horizontal axe swinging down!

That's a science monster!

"How brave!"

"Don't think about it!"

The two Ultimate-level MagnaGidmon at the forefront roared and attacked simultaneously, knocking away the axe and continuing their assault on Frankenstein Monster with undiminished momentum.

If you can't beat Armored Kingmon, you can't beat a mere ordinary Ultimate-level monster like yourself?

Both Ultimate-level beings sneered at the same time. In a one-on-one fight between ordinary Ultimate-level beings, the outcome was hard to predict, but in a two-on-one situation, the tide was turned dramatically!

Clang one

A flash of dark sword energy easily dispersed the attack in front of the Frankenstein monster.

The person who hit me in front of me is treating me like I don't exist!

The Armored Beast's face was somewhat dark.

"Armored Beast, we're all here to help you!"

Soon, Frankenmon arrived beside Armoredmon, retrieved his axe, and stared intently at the other side. Although he sensed the situation wasn't quite what he had imagined, he still murmured words to Armoredmon, trying to "move" him.

His words.

This only made the Armored Beast's face darken and become even more gloomy. It spoke slowly and deliberately, "You mean... us?"

"Yes, it's me and them..." Even Frankenstein's limited brainpower began to sense that something was wrong with Armoredmon.

"..."

"Pfft

"

MagnaGidmon ignored the terrifying expression on the other side and laughed out loud. But it quickly remembered how terrifying the other side was, and looked straight into the distance, looking at the other side seriously, trying to suppress the laughter.

What was initially a promising situation was ruined by Frankenstein's "loyalty." Without the pressure of holding them back, KingGarurumon could unleash its full power and decisively defeat its opponent. But now...

However, because of the existence of Frankenstein's monster, they now have the ability to take the fall. They don't need many; just a few Ultimate-level monsters, disregarding their own situation and going all out, could kill Frankenstein's monster on the spot.

Hearing that WrestlingVolcanomon and NoblePumpkinmon, who were already sick, were also coming along made Armoredmon unhappy.

If it weren't for the special circumstances and the presence of outsiders, Armored Beast would have grabbed them by the collar and yelled at them, "I don't need this kind of loyalty to die together. I just want you not to hold me back!"

Only now did Armored Kingmon recall his happy childhood, the time he spent with Agumon and the others. Back then, their bond was no less than that of Frankenmon and his friends, but he followed Huangfu Future's arrangement, saying...

Leaving without hesitation may seem ruthless, but it's actually full of wisdom in not letting your teammates down.

Even if they can't be great teammates, at least they're not terrible teammates.

And now...

Armored Beast was so angry it wanted to kill them.

"Tell me, what do you want to do now...?"
