Agumon who wants to become Omegamon

Prior to this, the host on the motorcycle was a baby Choromon, who was rescued by Andromon.

Then, after learning about the motorcycle from Choromon, Andromon, determined not to let this threat continue to exist, resolved to destroy it.

They began a long chase for the motorcycle, until the motorcycle found its next unlucky victim, the demon beast.

Andromon was at a disadvantage in this chase.

Andromon's body is made of Digizoid, so even if it gets hit by a motorcycle several times, it won't be seriously injured.

However, with the help of a Champion-level Demonmon, things became much harder for Andromon.

The appearance of the Demon Beast compensated for the motorcycle's lack of long-range attack capabilities. Faced with Andromon's pursuit, it no longer needed to charge up its attack. Instead, it could control the Demon Beast to unleash a powerful punch from a distance. Even though it didn't cause much damage to Andromon, it still greatly hindered Andromon's progress.

Not to mention in the subsequent battle, the motorcycle discovered Andromon's weakness: its only leg not covered by Digizoid.

Therefore, each attack was aimed at Andromon's right leg, forcing Andromon to switch from offense to defense and making it look quite disheveled.

Now, all it can do is chase after the motorcycle, making it aware that there is an enemy like Andromon behind it, so that it won't act recklessly.

"Why do you keep chasing that motorcycle?" Makino Ruki asked. If that motorcycle was really that evil, it would only harm the host at most.

"That's because this motorcycle specifically targets villages and other places where Digimon gather. Perhaps it's to find a suitable host, or perhaps it's simply for destruction. The motorcycle will actively attack these places," Andromon explained. This was the reason he kept chasing the motorcycle; he didn't want more Digimon to be harmed because of it.

"You have a strong sense of justice, which is truly admirable," Hirokazu Shiota said with some admiration. This was clearly none of his business; a Perfect-level Digimon could have lived a much better life in the Digital World. However, to prevent a group of unfamiliar Digimon from being harmed by motorcycles, a Perfect-level Digimon chased after their exhaust fumes every day. This dedication and sense of justice truly impressed him.

"Nonsense, I was just indulging myself." Andromon said somewhat dejectedly, "Perhaps some Digimon don't need my help at all, it's just that I wishfully thought they needed it."

"How could such a thing happen?! This is not just your self-satisfaction and wishful thinking. There must be someone, somewhere, who survived because of your help." Hirokazu Shiota said with some emotion. He believed that someone like Andromon, who did good deeds quietly, should not belittle himself with such words, even if he did not ask for anything in return.

"Think about it carefully. Did the Choro Beast that was previously controlled by the motorcycle survive because of your help?" Hirokazu Shiota suddenly had a flash of inspiration and continued.

"If it weren't for your help, a young Choromon would have been crushed to death by the motorcycle without any way to escape. You gave it the right to continue living. I think that Choromon must be very grateful to you."

When he got excited, Hirokazu Shiota even unconsciously squeezed Andromon's hand.

"..." Andromon stared silently at Hirokazu Shiota, a strange light flashing in his eyes.

For the first time, someone actually stood up for him and spoke up for him, instead of viewing his previous actions as foolish.

Deeply moved, Andromon began to recount some of his past experiences.

For example, before encountering the motorcycle, he met the Frogmon, who were enslaved by Orochimon, in a forest. In order to help them break free from their enslavement, Andromon relied on the defensive power of his Digizoid and fought Orochimon repeatedly, even after being defeated.

In the end, instead of gratitude from the monster frogs, he was met with their disgust at his failures and the trouble they caused him after each failure, forcing him to help them repair their bodies.

Even though Andromon doesn't expect others to understand him, he's still saddened by being betrayed by the Frogmon.

However, this is not the end, but the beginning.

After repeated defeats, Andromon began to figure out Orochimon's attack patterns and gained some chance of winning.

He sought out the Frogmons, hoping they would cooperate with him. During the process of delivering sake to the Serpentmon, he would disguise himself inside the brewing barrels, creating an opportunity for Andromon to eliminate the enemy.

But the group of monstrous frogs disagreed, because the giant serpent beast needed them to brew wine, and as long as they didn't go against the giant serpent beast's will, they would be fine.

But if they pose a danger to the giant serpent beast, even if they can brew wine, they will definitely be eaten by the giant serpent beast.

Finally, after Andro's repeated requests, the Frogmon reluctantly agreed.

I thought that was the end of it, and what followed was the great battle between Orochimon and Andromon.

However, for reasons unknown, the Frogmon chose to inform the Serpentmon.

Thus, the unsuspecting Andromon suffered a great loss and ultimately left the forest with a heavy heart.

This was not only because his physical injuries prevented him from staying in that forest, but also because the monster frogs no longer needed his help.

Andromon desperately wanted to help the Frogmon escape the enslavement of the Serpentmon and live freely.

Therefore, even though Andromon has been helping the Frogmon fight, the Frogmon remain neutral, as if it has nothing to do with them, and they don't mind watching it coldly.

Because this is what Andromon wanted to do, and it's something Andromon himself chose to do.

However, this betrayal was something Andromon had never expected. He had gone to great lengths to help them without asking for anything in return, but they had actually turned around and helped the enslaved Serpentmon to fight against him.

This was something Andromon never expected.

In the end, Andromon had no choice but to retreat.

These monstrous frog-like creatures have all willingly helped their enslaved master fight against him, choosing to completely submit to the Great Serpent Beast. Can he still save these people who have already given up on themselves?

Deep down, even the current Andromon couldn't help but feel resentful, not because the other party betrayed them, but because of their self-abandonment.

Hearing this, the beast tamers couldn't help but sigh that Andromon was a really good person.

Chapter 84 The Village of Clay Figures and Beasts

In the original story, before Andro's final step in his beast-telling was reached, the existence of the beast tamers gave the monster frogs another hope.

Therefore, there is the scene where the Frogmon is willing to help the tamers and Andromon.

However, in this current timeline, while Andromon was fighting Orochimon, the tamers were in the hedgehog's den of Grimmnemon; and during the final battle between Andromon and Orochimon, it was also the time when Spiralmon and Gallantmon were fighting.

Regardless of the circumstances, without the help of tamers, Andromon was destined to be defeated.

Fortunately, the defeat did not cost him his life, which is the only consolation and a good thing.

"So, are you planning to keep tracking that motorcycle?" Hirokazu Shiota asked with a complicated expression.

“Of course,” Andromon replied decisively.

“Even if no one understands you this time, or even misunderstands you,” Hirokazu Shiota asked again.

“Even so, I will do it,” Andromon said with a determined look in his eyes, “because this is not a requirement imposed on me by others, but a way of life that I have chosen myself.”

"Even if no one can understand me, even if it's just for my own self-gratification, I will continue to do it."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Hirokazu Shiota's expression became complicated as he silently looked at Andromon.

This is a martyr. He can disregard the prejudices and misunderstandings of the world for the sake of his own inner beliefs.

Looking at the fully evolved Andromon, it would be impossible for Hirokazu Shiota not to have considered making it his partner.

Looking at Andromon, who possessed lofty ideals and acted upon them, Hirokazu Shiota suddenly wondered if he was worthy of him.

I'm just an elementary school student that's common in Japan. If I had to label myself, I'd say I'm an elementary school student who loves Digimon and card battles.

Is this version of myself really okay...?

Hirokazu Shiota shook his head, no longer wanting to think about something that was still far from certain.

He looked at his good friend Matsuda Hiroto, and before he could speak, Matsuda Hiroto immediately understood what he meant.

So, meeting Hirokazu Shiota's grateful gaze, Hiroto Matsuda spoke first: "Everyone, let's help Andromon."

"If we leave that motorcycle alone, it will eventually harm more Digimon."

“That’s right, I don’t think we can just leave the Demonmon controlled by the motorcycle alone,” Leomon added. Although Leomon didn’t know Demonmon, the unseen connection of being sworn enemies always made Leomon pay more attention to Demonmon.

“Indeed, after all, that demon beast and the motorcycle attacked us first.” Makino Ruki said with her arms crossed and a cold, arrogant expression.

"Hehe, what Ruki means is that we can help Andromon," Kato Juri said with a smile.

"Wait, Shuli, what are you saying..." came a slightly panicked voice.

“We will help you,” Alice said softly, a smile appearing on her usually indifferent face.

The Doberman Pinscher beside him nodded in agreement.

"Then the next step is to find the locomotive's tracks." Li Jianliang immediately started thinking about how to find the fast-moving locomotive.

"Gilmon can smell its scent." At this moment, Guilmon spoke up, and cooperated by moving closer to the ground and sniffing the tracks left by the motorcycle.

“You guys…” Andromon looked at the tamers with a hint of emotion.

"Hehe, we'll help you. You're not alone this time, Andromon." Hirokazu Shiota chuckled, touching his nose.

"Ah... thank you so much," Andromon said gratefully. "Then let's be partners in this motorcycle chase."

"Hehe, of course! I happen to be quite interested in that motorcycle. You've been tracking it for so long, you should be able to find it, right?" The witch beast said with a smile, but her eyes darted around mischievously, clearly plotting something.

“Of course.” Andromon said decisively. Although he appears to be a modified Digimon and has the nickname Robotmon, he is actually more of a mechanical Digimon.

In this land that is not a desert, it is difficult to find a target by following tire tracks. Apart from Digimon with a strong sense of smell, such as Guilmon and Dobermon, very few Digimon have the ability to track.

But Andromon possesses this ability.

His modified body endowed his eyes with scanning abilities. This ability wasn't exaggerated enough to allow him to instantly determine a Digimon's stats, but it did allow him to identify subtle traces left by Digimon.

So the group didn't rest, but instead followed Andromon's scanning and Guilmon's sense of smell to move forward.

“Another village?” Matsuda Hiroto said, then scanned the surroundings.

The village was deserted, with tire tracks everywhere, looking as if it had been run over by motorcycles.

"Am I too late?" Andromon murmured, looking around at everything.

"Who are you!" A Digimon that looked like it was wearing a brown bear plush toy emerged from a mound in the village.

"Mudman, Beast, a mutant Digimon, Champion level," Matsuda Takato said, looking at the information displayed by the Arc Machine.

“We are travelers who came here in pursuit of a motorcycle,” Lionmon said.

"That steel beast?"

"Are you here to handle this?"

"Hey, could it be that they lured that steel beast here?"

More and more clay figures and animals appeared, and their views on animal trainers gradually shifted in a negative direction.

"It seems this place isn't very friendly to us," Makino Ruki said.

"Wait, this is a misunderstanding, we didn't do anything," Matsuda Hiroto hurriedly explained.

“Yes, we’re here to deal with that motorcycle,” Andromon shouted.

However, these clay figures and beasts largely ignored their words, and a few even twisted their arms, seemingly ready to fight.

It wasn't until a slightly aged clay figure or animal, leaning on a cane, stepped forward that a potential conflict was averted.

"Stop it, all of you!" A kind and aged voice rang out, instantly silencing the mud figures and beasts' chatter.

"village head……"

"Don't be unreasonable," the clay figure and beast village chief said calmly.

"Yes……"

After giving a brief reprimand to the disobedient tribesmen, the Mudman and Beast Village Chief turned to the beast tamers, quickly surveying them before saying, "Although I don't know why you've come to this abandoned data station, as the village chief, I'd like to extend my greetings on behalf of everyone: welcome to the Mudman and Beast Village."

Chapter 85 The Witch Beast Who Wants to Ride a Motorcycle

"Please come in. Although it's not expensive food, it tastes pretty good." The mud man and the beast chief led the beast tamers into their small mud house and offered them their food, though the beast tamers seemed a little strange.

"What's wrong? Is the food not to your liking?"

"Um..." Matsuda Keito looked a little embarrassed, "Rather than whether it suits our taste..."

"Rather, it's a question of whether we can eat them..." Li Jianliang said awkwardly, since humans might not be able to eat the food of Digimon.

"Then I'll start eating." Kato Juri, on the other hand, started eating without any hesitation, showing them that even food for Digimon is edible for humans.

“Kato-san…” Matsuda Takato’s lips twitched. He hadn’t expected Kato Juri to have such a… bold side.

"Now, back to the main topic, I'd like to ask, how long has that motorcycle... the steel beast you're talking about, been here?" Makino Ruki took the initiative to ask.

“Twice now, it has come to us twice,” the clay figure and beast village chief replied.

"Our first arrival caused us sacrifices."

"The second time, they fought back with the help of their fellow villagers, but they were still defeated by that steel beast and the evil monster."

After saying that, the mud-man and beast village chief looked at the animal trainers around him and said, "This is also why the village has suddenly started to reject outsiders."

......."

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent; they had been wrongly accused.
