Agumon who wants to become Omegamon

Huangfu Weilai spoke slowly, which can be considered as revealing Hakumon's current predicament.

In fact, there are obvious differences between the two pairs of partners: Huangfu Future and Hackmon, and Yagami Taichi and Agumon.

That is in terms of evolving into the ultimate form.

Hakumon needs to overcome obstacles on its own to achieve its ultimate evolution.

Agumon, on the other hand, requires Taichi Yagami's own mental strength to be sufficient for it to evolve naturally.

In the short term, neither is superior to the other; they simply have different focuses.

But things change over time.

In the short term, Agumon is naturally easier to evolve into its ultimate form as long as its partner has enough mental strength.

However, in the long run, Hakumon, which relies on its own training and can maintain its Ultimate form after evolution, is undoubtedly better.

Huangfu Weilai looked at Yagami Taichi, who seemed to be deep in thought, but ignored his thoughts and instead turned her attention to Hakumon.

Because the Knight Commander had already cleared the area.

At this moment, the two stood at opposite ends of the training field, facing each other from a distance.

A dazzling light shone from Hackmon's body, and in the light, Hackmon's posture changed dramatically.

Hackmon, Mega Evolution

"Hakumon, the savior!"

Savior Hakumon's cape fluttered in the wind as he stood solemnly and dignified.

"Knightmon - Wisdom Sword Mode!"

The Knight Commander also drew his 'Sage's Sword', announced his name and form, and stared at the other from afar.

Suddenly, the knight commander's eyes narrowed, and he shouted, "Let our battle begin!"

After uttering these words, which sounded like a reminder, the Knight Commander launched the first attack.

Raising the 'Sage's Sword' in his hand, the Knight Commander swung it directly.

A crescent-shaped blue sword aura shot out instantly, its destructive power cracking the ground as it flew through the air.

Without a doubt, this is an attack even greater than the ultimate level.

This is the Wise Sword!

Faced with this horizontal slash that nearly covered the entire field, Savior Hakumon did not fly up to dodge.

Instead, he stared intently at the slash, raised his sword, and wanted to meet it head-on.

Only such a life-or-death battle could move him.

Even though he knew he was just sparring with the Knight Commander, he could still get a feel for the fight.

then……

"【Meteor Flame】!"

Savior Hackmon took a deep breath, and the energy was converted into a scorching wave that gathered in its mouth.

Then, it was released with a roar!

The high-temperature flames formed a pillar of fire that shot straight toward the blue slash.

Although it can't match the Blue Slash in terms of coverage area, it's just as impressive in terms of sheer force.

Subsequently, in the eyes of the two parties involved and the onlookers, two powerful attacks collided with a deafening roar.

The destructive strike, combined with the intensely hot pillar of fire, caused an immediate explosion.

A large crater was blasted out in the center of the site, and a thick cloud of dust rose into the sky before dissipating.

Upon seeing this, the Knight Commander and the savior Hakumon acted simultaneously.

The two pushed off at the same time, and the ground suddenly cracked open.

The two, carrying immense force, charged at each other simultaneously, deciding the course of the battle through close combat.

As the captain of the Chess Beast Empire, leading numerous knight beasts, the Knight Commander is a knight among knights. His close combat ability is naturally not weak, and it can even be said to be the embodiment of his strongest combat power.

Needless to say, the savior Hakumon is also a formidable opponent. As a disciple of the Royal Knight Gankomon, he is a disciple of a Holy Knight-type master, and close combat is one of his strengths.

The two are evenly matched!

Chapter Fifty-Two: Swordplay Battle

Clang—clang—clang—!

One after another, the sounds of collisions echoed. In the hazy dust, the sparks that flew from the collision of the two dark figures could be clearly seen.

Clang—!!!

With another intense collision, the two objects used the force to move away from each other.

Savior Hakumon and Knight Commander were focused on observing each other's movements.

Neither the savior Hakumon nor the Knight Commander were unharmed at this moment.

The knight commander held a sword in his right hand and a shield in his left. With a shield, he should have been better at defense. However, in fact, the damage to his armor was more severe than that of the savior Hakumon.

In comparison, the savior Hakumon is not much better off.

The marks on his armor from the knight commander's cuts were only slightly better than his opponent's, but more importantly, his red cloak was cut in half.

The cloak, which could have covered the whole body, is now barely enough to cover the upper body.

Fortunately, Hakumon reacted in time, preventing the cape from being completely cut off.

To understand Paladin-type Digimon, ever since a certain Digimon lost an arm and went offline because its cloak was burned, all Royal Knights have had their cloaks emphasized to them by Huangfu Mirai in a nonsensical way.

'What cape truly represents your true form? Protect it well…' 'What cape truly represents a member of the Royal Knights? Those with wings but no cape are merely unofficial members…' 'What? There are Digimon in the Royal Knights who don't have capes or wings…? I understand, then let's set…'

Let's create a new position, tentatively named the Royal Knights' mascot or pet.

Today is another day of persecuting Xiao Jin.

As for the innocent civilians who were caught in the crossfire... well, who told you you didn't have capes and wings?

Sword Emperor Beast: ·

Skull Beast: ...

Fragrant Beast: ...

Sleipmon: ...

Back to the topic

After observing each other, they locked eyes and, in perfect unison, charged toward each other, engaging in close combat once more.

In that previous close-quarters battle where they inflicted damage on each other, the two clashed hundreds of times in a short period of time.

Instead of being a savior, Hakumon used its double blades and tail blade to highlight the advantage of having an extra hand, catching the Knight Commander off guard with an attack.

The Knight Commander used his immense strength to force his shield down the savior Hakumon, forcing it to use both hands to defend itself, thus launching a successful attack.

Between the two, they exchanged blows, each leaving their own scratches on the other's body.

Now, they are once again engaged in close combat.

All I can say is that they were all very excited at that moment.

The Knight Commander received the most orthodox one-shield-one-sword combat training, but later forged his own path, making the one-shield-one-sword combat technique even more concise.

To this day, he remains the strongest swordsman in the Chess Beast Empire.

In comparison, the savior Hakumon did not receive swordsmanship instruction like the Knight Commander.

However, he innovated by incorporating his master, the stubborn beast's, fist techniques into his own swordsmanship, and finally combined them with his own physical characteristics to form his own unique Five-Sword Style.

Equally incomparable to the Knight Commander

One is grand and upright; the other is bizarre and ever-changing.

The two had very different kendo styles, both at the level of reaching the ultimate potential, which was hard not to be moved by.

So, to test each other's ideas, the two of them unanimously chose to engage in close combat again!

The greatsword in the knight commander's hand began to be coated with a blue light.

【Wise Sword】!

However, this time it was no longer a swing that formed a crescent-shaped slash.

Instead, the Knight Commander covered the sword, giving each strike and impact the destructive power of the 'Skill: Sage's Sword'.

Savior Hakumon remained unmoved, because he could also perform such precise techniques!

Meteor Flame - Five-Tipped Halberd!

He learned the Fire God's Might from his master, the Stubborn Beast, to enhance his skills, which eventually formed the skill 'Meteor Flame'.

Now, with the savior Hakumon empowering the blade, it has become a fusion display of two skills.

Swish

In an instant, scorching red flames enveloped the five blades of Savior Hakumon, giving it the explosive power of flames with every touch.

When they use their enhanced skills, they no longer simply compete in physical ability, but instead engage in close combat using energy.

Its scale and destructive power have been escalated once again.

This forced the spectators watching from the sidelines to begin taking self-defense measures.

"All personnel—defense formation, deploy!" a Knightmon shouted.

Immediately, the somewhat chaotic scene was brought under control.

One by one, the Pawnmon (black/white) raised their shields, and the Warriormon and Ridermon began to cooperate. In the end, the chaos caused by the aftermath was brought under control by the Knightmon.

During this time, one of the Knightmon seemed to know that Hikari Yagami was the great benefactor who saved the Knight Commander, and that Taichi Yagami and the others were guests of His Majesty the King. So the Knightmon wanted to raise its shield to help Taichi Yagami and his group defend against the aftershocks of the battle between the two on the battlefield.

However, he was rejected by Taichi Yagami.

Realizing that even watching the battle was dangerous, Yagami Taichi decisively unleashed his power.

Agumon directly Mega Evolves into MetalGreymon.

With his powerful, semi-mechanical body, he directly withstood the shockwave from the aftershocks, protecting everyone from the impact of the two combatants.

“Very strong…” Knightmon stared at MetalGreymon in astonishment. He felt a strong sense of threat from MetalGreymon, which was obviously stronger than him.

Knightmon was already quite surprised that there was a savior, Hakumon, who could rival their own Knight Commander, but now there was a Digimon in their team that was even stronger than themselves.

How could this not astonish Knightmon?

After all, he is the second-ranked Knightmon among all Knightmon, and the strongest Knightmon after the Knight Commander.

As the Knight Commander's second-in-command, his strength is already among the best of the best.

And MetalGreymon, which is even more powerful than him, is probably not far behind the two combatants, even if it is not as strong.

If he unleashes his full power, he might actually be able to approach the level of those two.

Thinking of this, Knightmon couldn't help but cast an envious glance at MetalGreymon.

MetalGreymon was completely unaware of this; he simply watched the two fighting silently.

Although the Knight Commander was a very nice person, he was ultimately a stranger.

Therefore, MetalGreymon is more concerned about the progress of Savior Hackmon, after all, the other party is not only his companion, but also a predecessor with whom he has a mentor-mentee relationship.

Chapter Fifty-Three Conclusion

With MetalGreymon focused on the battle, the fight in the training grounds reached a fever pitch.

The battle between Savior Hakumon and the Knight Commander reached its climax, a level that could no longer be described as a mere sparring match.

If either of them loses control, they could really cripple the other.
