Chapter 280
Compared to using the original Son Goku Beast to train the Chosen Children, directly having Gluttony Beast — a Digimon who counts as a friend to oneself — help train the Chosen Children seems like a very good thing; the risk can be completely controlled.
"Gluttony Beast, can I ask you to help with this?"
Piximon asked.
"I can, but how exactly do you want me to help?" Broly agreed to help, but asked, "When that group of Chosen Children comes over here, do I just go find them and tell them I'm the person helping to train them?"
"No, you cannot directly reveal the identity of the one helping to train them."
Piximon hurriedly shook his head.
"What's the problem with that?"
Broly was confused.
"The Chosen Children are, in the end, just a group of human children; once they know they are not in danger, they will inevitably have a so-called slackening of heart, and at that time the training effect will be greatly reduced, and it's even possible it won't have any effect at all."
Since the Holy Plan was activated, the children summoned to the Digital World are not just single digits.
Among them there are also some Chosen Children and their Partner Digimon who have passed the Champion-level Dark Forces Digimon checkpoint of the Small Server.
But those who choose to continue on, to save the Digital World, are only one in ten.
Human children rarely have resilience; once they encounter a setback they generally just escape; those who face difficulties and advance are few and far between; even the carefully selected Chosen Children, Tai Yagami and the others, are rare types who chose to continue moving forward.
Piximon truly fears that while training them, he might train a group of Chosen Children about to reach the Server Continent into having a slackening of heart.
"Gluttony Beast, you must play the role of a villain Digimon, not the identity of a trainer assisting in training the Chosen Children."
"Alright."
Broly nodded.
"But specifically how to do it — after the Chosen Children come over to the Server Continent, do I just go find them and beat them up?"
Broly asked.
"Training, after all, requires giving pressure to the Chosen Children, but when giving pressure, remember the intensity must be appropriate; you must not scare the Chosen Children into not daring to move forward.
At the same time, you also have to be careful not to let the Chosen Children see that you are conceding..."
Piximon muttered on; the requirements for playing the trainer role were actually quite numerous.
"Fine, then after the Chosen Children come over to the Server Continent, I'll go find them and beat them and their Digimon up, give them an initial show of force first."
Broly nodded and said.
"Wait, if you do it like that, and your strength is this strong, then how are that group of Chosen Children who can currently only evolve to Champion level, and their Partner Digimon, supposed to escape?"
Piximon asked.
"Very simple; at that time, you come out to save the scene; the two of us exchange a few moves, make it look evenly matched, then you create some smoke, I pretend I can't see you, and you can take the opportunity to lead the Chosen Children in escaping."
Broly indicated this was completely not a problem; when it came time to cooperate with someone's performance, he could completely achieve the degree of a blind man seeing but not seeing.
"Huh, Gluttony Beast, how are you so practiced at this?"
Piximon was somewhat surprised.
"Haha, I used to be a performing ape."
Although this was already a long time ago, the matter of once performing a fall in the ring, letting the championship glory go to someone else, Broly still remembers relatively clearly; he also doesn't know how that Uncle Samba-san is doing in the World of Akame ga Kill now; he estimates that winning the championship is still his pride.
"Then what about me, Abu? What do I do?"
"Eh, Tailmon, you want to perform too?"
"Can't I perform?"
The white cat blinked her bright big eyes, looking over inquiringly.
"It's not that; speaking of which, Tailmon, your LadyDevimon form is actually more suitable for playing the role of a Digimon that gives pressure to the Chosen Children."
Piximon suddenly said; compared to Gluttony Beast this kind of human-resembling Digimon, he truly felt Tailmon's LadyDevimon form was actually more suitable to be the pressure monster.
Just right, Tai Yagami's group of Chosen Children, over at File Island, faced Demon-type Digimon.
Now facing a further evolved LadyDevimon is completely reasonable, and LadyDevimon's power is also just right — weaker than oneself, but stronger than the Chosen Children's Partner Digimon.
Broly and the two Digimon discussed the specific process for acting as trainers (pressure monsters) for the other Chosen Children.
But as they discussed, he lost the villain role he himself needed to play.
"Gluttony Beast, your strength is too strong; still let Tailmon's evolved LadyDevimon do it; this way there can be a more realistic performance effect."
This was Piximon's statement.
"I'll evolve to Angewomon; the evolution data needed this time, let me collect it myself."
Tailmon was also full of motivation.
Regarding this, what else could Broly say?
Turning his head, he asked the Mechanical Capsule beside him: "Molecule Beast, when will your data absorption device be ready?"
"Two to three days."
Molecule Beast answered, and this was with it still having extra finished Digivices in hand that could be modified, to have this efficiency.
"Then when are the Chosen Children coming?"
Broly asked Piximon again.
"Fast as two or three days, slow as one week — all possible."
Piximon could not give a definite answer, because this depends on the Chosen Children at File Island, and the means of crossing the Net Ocean they choose.
If they can find a modern motorboat, two or three days they can definitely reach here; but if they make a bamboo raft to cross the sea, one week would be saying it's fast.
Of course, among that group of children there is one whose Digimon partner is Gomamon; Gomamon has the ability to manipulate fish schools; the bamboo raft's speed is actually not slow either.
"Good, then taking advantage that the main actors haven't arrived yet, let's go find some extra Digimon to act as sparring partners."
"Huh?"
"You can't just have LadyDevimon keep chasing you guys, and then keep letting you guys escape, right?"
"Mm, that's true too."
The Fairy Beast nodded.
"Then who are you looking for?"
"Naturally, those Digimon in the Forest who chose to follow me."
Broly answered without hesitation.
"However, if they help out with work, they must also receive a share of the data skimmed from the Partner Digimon of the Chosen Children."
"Wait, you want more Digimon to come to the Chosen Children's side to skim data?"
"I do have that idea. Is there a problem?"
Because Son Goku Beast dared to lead an army to attack the Forest, it was because the Digimon in the Forest were too weak; there was an opportunity to help improve their strength, so Broly naturally wanted to help.
"It's not impossible."
According to the overview of data skimmed by Molecule Beast, the evolution data produced by the emotions of the Chosen Children can be treated like leeks to be harvested. As long as the Chosen Children and their Digimon are not killed during the whole process, there won't be any problems.
They can use this method to repeatedly obtain some high-quality evolution data.
"I just think we can hire more Digimon to go cause trouble for the Chosen Children, thereby helping them accumulate corresponding battle experience."
Just use some renewable evolution data from the Chosen Children to hire a group of Digimon as Actors to bring pressure to the Chosen Children.
Hmm, it's quite like using a child's pocket money to buy textbooks for them to study, simply ruthless to the extreme.
But Fairy Beast thought about it carefully and felt this idea was great; even because it was a renewable data source, some Digimon of the Dark Forces might not kill the Chosen Children if they knew about this.
Of course, the premise is that those Digimon can also obtain tools for evolution data converted from intercepted emotional energy.
"Then, Fairy Beast, you notify us whenever the Chosen Children arrive."
"Okay."
Broly directly took Molecule Beast and left.
"Molecule Beast."
After they left, Fairy Beast looked at Molecule Beast, hoping it could help.
"I need to concentrate on making the Data Absorber."
Molecule Beast wouldn't help; it found an excuse and left the room too.
Fairy Beast: "......"
Finding the traces of the Chosen Children still had to rely on itself.
"We're back!"
After more than a month, Broly and Molecule Beast returned to the East Forest.
At the edge of the Forest, the yellow sand of the Desert buried everything.
Now, no traces of the battles from before could be seen.
"King Gluttony is back!"
However, the Digimon in the Forest remembered this matter.
They welcomed Broly bringing Molecule Beast back with an enthusiastic attitude.
"Banquet, we must hold a banquet to welcome the return of King Gluttony."
Broly did not refuse; he also needed to gather the Digimon in the Forest to say some things.
And after the attack incident led by Son Goku Beast's army, the relationships between different species of Digimon in the Forest had become much closer.
Even the Snot Beasts, originally at the bottom of the contempt chain, could now gather with other Digimon to chat normally because they played some role in the Great War, instead of being rejected.
"Cheers to the return of King Gluttony~"
The Cactus Beast evolved from Floramon raised a large wooden cup and poured the clear water mixed with nutrient soil in the cup onto its leg, which was a more normal way of drinking water for Plant-type Digimon.
"Cheers to Molecule Beast's Evolution!"
Flymon also picked up a cup, but it couldn't drink in big mouthfuls; it could only lean close and stab its proboscis into the honey water. Other Digimon had already finished drinking, while it was still sucking the honey water; its drinking speed was obviously much slower than other Digimon with normal mouths.
"All Champion-level Digimon come over, I have something to tell you."
When the Welcome Banquet was about halfway through, Broly spoke to some Champion-level Digimon.
"King Gluttony, please speak."
The liquid mixed with high-nutrient soil made the absorbed Cactus Beast show a drunk appearance.
However, regarding what Broly wanted to say, the two Cactus Beasts still indicated they were listening attentively.
Other Champion-level Digimon also pricked up their ears, or other sound receivers, quietly waiting for Forest King Broly to speak.
"I took a job from Fairy Beast, which is to help train some Chosen Children who are about to arrive at the Server Continent side."
【110 "But openly it's not training the Chosen Children, but rather going to cause trouble for the Chosen Children; I don't know who among you is willing to do this job?"
"But on the surface it's not training the Chosen Children, it's just going to find trouble for the Chosen Children, don't know which of you all is willing to do this work?"
Hearing this, a group of Champion-level Digimon looked at each other; now most Digimon in the Forest had gentler natures and were not the type to like fighting.
As for those fierce and ruthless guys, they either fled from the Forest or ended up in King Gluttony's stomach.
"King Gluttony, if you need us to do this, we are willing to go through fire and water for you."
Flymon expressed its stance, and other Champion-level Digimon nodded their heads; for such things, actually as long as their King said a word, they would do it.
"Go through fire and water? No, this is just a job, and it's an employment nature job; and since it's employment, there are benefits..."
Broly immediately explained the matter proposed by Molecule Beast about skimming the evolution data of the Partner Digimon of the Chosen Children.
"Ah, we can also get a share of the evolution data?"
"Of course, but the premise is that you do the work; how about it, will you do it or not?"
"We will do it; even without data we would follow King Gluttony, let alone now that King Gluttony is willing to share some evolution data with us."
"I need to take a commission on my side; the commission ratio is 5%, oh no, it's 10% of the data."
The Adventurer's Guild of the KonoSuba World takes a commission of roughly that amount for providing quality quests.
"That is as it should be."
The Digimon had no objections.
"For the Lilithmon King, for the Evolution Data!"
They rubbed their fists and wiped their palms, just waiting to go find trouble for the Chosen Children.
"Hey, you guys better not think this is a simple job. If your strength is insufficient, going to train the Chosen Children, you might get killed by the Chosen Children's Partner Digimon."
Tyrannomon looked at the group of Champion Digimon before him, their faces full of expectation, and couldn't help but give a reminder.
"Understood, Lord Tyrannomon."
"Don't call me Lord Tyrannomon. Afterwards I'll be taking you to do this work. So, for these few days, you'll call me Lilithmon King."
As Tyrannomon spoke, he activated the Dark Evolution Armor, and right before the Forest Camp Champion Digimon, evolved into the form of Lilithmon.
Seeing this, the group of Champion Digimon looked at each other in dismay, some even glancing at Broly at the side, but in the end it was Cactmon, evolved from Palmon, who spoke up first: "Yes, Lilithmon King!"
Time flew by, and three days later, with Whamon's help, Tai Yagami and the others had already arrived at the Server Continent yesterday, only because the landing spot was rather remote, no local Digimon discovered them.
However, when Tai Yagami and the others entered the desert region, passing through an area with buried Dark Cables, Nanomon, who held control over the Dark Cable network of Son Goku, instantly discovered the whereabouts of this group of Chosen Children.
Of course, correctly speaking, what it discovered was merely the signal of the Digivices on the Chosen Children.
"How come there are eight signals?"
