Chapter 302
Broly returned to the Spaceship Fortress somewhat disappointed; Makino Ruki was unwilling to trade Sagittarimon's evolution data, and he had no way to change that.
"Molemon, when can we depart?"
Six hours had passed since coming to this world; looking at Molemon busy at the control console, Broly walked over and asked.
"Gluttony Beast King, are you troubled because you couldn't obtain Sagittarimon's evolution data?"
Molemon answered with a counter-question.
"Are you monitoring me?"
Broly looked at it curiously.
"Why would I need to monitor you? Ever since becoming your subordinate, during the days of getting along with you, I've long since summarized your behavioral logic.
Everything is an effort to let Guilmon evolve into more female Digimon forms.
And just now, you used the Spaceship Fortress's communication system to arrange a meeting with that Makino Ruki.
Gluttony Beast King, what you want to do is easy to guess, isn't it?"
Pausing a moment, Molemon continued: "And seeing you return dejectedly and ask when we're leaving just shows your objective wasn't achieved."
"Alright, you're right. Then do you have any brilliant ideas?"
"No brilliant ideas, just a piece of intelligence I must report to you."
"What intelligence?"
Molemon pulled up a picture — a candid shot of the girl rescued by Magnamon.
"This girl is named Kato Juri; she's the companion and friend that group of children struggled to save from Diaboromon's body, and she lost her own Initiator Partner Digimon, while the one who acted was the Fallen Hell Beast who also went to save her."
"Uh, what's so special about this intelligence?"
Broly was confused.
"Fallen Hell Beast, also known as Beelzemon, absorbs the data of Digimon it kills; in other words, this girl's Initiator Partner Digimon Leomon's data is inside the Fallen Hell Beast's body.
And if the Fallen Hell Beast doesn't resist, according to the data extraction technology we possess, it's completely possible to extract the partner Digimon's data from it, then remake it into a Digimental, achieving so-called resurrection.
Sagittarimon's component, that girl named Makino Ruki, and this Kato Juri are friends; if you use this to propose a trade, presumably the other party would also give it some consideration for the sake of her friend."
Molemon still couldn't understand human emotional bonds, but having witnessed so many miracles created by emotional bonds, it was willing to believe the other party would be willing to make sacrifices for a friend.
Of course, the reason Molemon brought this up was mainly because it wanted to study this world's Jogress Evolution between humans and Digimon.
However, whether the Spaceship Fortress can stay in this world still depends on Broly's wishes; Molemon mentioned this to give its own King something to do.
"Molemon, using this kind of matter as a trade condition, isn't that a bit not good?"
Broly had a feeling of extortion with lives at stake.
"What's not good? Those people aren't friends with you, Gluttony Beast King; no relations whatsoever. If they want to resurrect a companion's Initiator Partner Digimon, then paying with another companion's Initiator Partner Digimon's Ultimate Level evolution data is a fair trade."
Broly thought it over and felt it made sense.
"Then I'll go down again and talk it over with the other party."
Broly prepared to go down again to find Makino Ruki.
"Wait, Gluttony Beast King."
But Molemon stopped him.
"Is there something else?"
Broly halted and turned back to ask.
"Don't discuss this matter alone with that girl; instead, discuss it with their entire group. The pleas of companions and friends by the other party's side will make it easier for you, Gluttony Beast King, to achieve your own objective."
Molemon offered advice.
"Okay, I understand."
Broly accepted this advice.
Flying down again, he soon sought out Matsuda Kaito and the others.
Right in front of Kato Juri, he said to Makino Ruki: "After I went back, my subordinate told me you might have a need here.
So I came down again to discuss new trade conditions with you.
Well, as long as you're willing to trade Sagittarimon's evolution data to us, we can resurrect your friend Kato Juri's Initiator Partner Digimon — Leomon."
"Ah, Leomon can be resurrected?"
Hearing this, Kato Juri froze slightly; it was precisely because of Leomon's death that she suffered a heavy blow, allowing Diaboromon to take advantage, but she never expected that after being rescued she'd hear such tremendous good news.
"Is what you say true?"
Matsuda Kaito asked.
"It's true, but not directly resurrecting Leomon; rather, with the Fallen Hell Beast's agreement, extracting Leomon's data from its body, then using that data to construct a Digimental, re-hatching it into a Child-level Digimon."
Broly explained a bit.
"Got it, isn't that just reincarnation?"
Li Jianliang very easily understood the setting involved.
"That's great, Juri, Leomon can be revived this way."
Calumon was very happy, looking at Kato Juri and saying so.
"But will the Fallen Hell Beast agree?"
Kato Juri was somewhat worried.
"Definitely no problem; the Fallen Hell Beast didn't hesitate to sacrifice itself to save you. If it knew Leomon could be resurrected this way, it would certainly be willing to have Leomon's data extracted from its body."
Guardromon said.
"Wait, everyone, haven't you forgotten? The other party said it's a trade."
Ryo Akiyama reminded them from the side.
"Uh..."
After the reminder, Matsuda Kaito and the others finally reacted.
"Excuse me, what does trading Sagittarimon's evolution data mean?"
Matsuda Kaito asked.
"The literal meaning: she and Kyubimon Jogress evolve into Sagittarimon, and we extract Sagittarimon's evolution data."
Everyone looked at Makino Ruki.
"Will extracting this kind of data have a negative impact on Kyubimon?"
Makino Ruki asked, and being able to ask this question showed she already had the intention to trade.
Broly hadn't answered yet when the computer nearby lit up, and Moleculardramon's mechanical voice sounded.
"Let me answer in place of the Gluttony Beast King: normally extracting a Digimon's evolution data only causes the Digimon's devolution phenomenon.
But Sagittarimon is an existence evolved from the data combination of you and Kyubimon.
So, we also don't know if extracting this kind of evolution data will have a negative impact on you.
This requires you to cooperate with research a bit, to be able to know the exact answer……"
Here it comes, here it comes, Moleculardramon is playing his own abacus beads, proposing a research requirement to Makino Ruki.
"Excuse me……"
"What?"
"Evolution data, can you use mine and Guilmon's?"
Matsuda Kaito said.
"That depends on the Gluttony Beast King's meaning."
Moleculardramon didn't care whose human-beast Jogress evolution data was researched, but had to consider his own King's meaning.
"Your data, I don't need."
Broly waved his hand in refusal; he just wanted to obtain new wife Digimon evolution data, not like he wanted any data.
"Forget it, I'll do it."
Makino Ruki stepped forward; she was indeed willing to make some sacrifices for her friend Kato Juri.
Of course, the premise is, it cannot harm Kyubimon.
"How should I cooperate with your research?"
She asked the lit-up computer camera.
"Please come to my laboratory; I need to conduct a deep data scan on the Sagittarimon you evolved into."
Kyubimon cannot fly, so Makino Ruki and Kyubimon, Jogress evolving into Sagittarimon, prepared to go to the castle in the sky together with Broly.
"Wait, can we come along too?"
Matsuda Kaito and the others were a bit uneasy, chased out and asked the boy.
"Of course."
Broly had no objection to these few people wanting to follow along up.
Guilmon called Grani, a group of people rode it and followed towards the sky castle.
And only when approaching could they more feel the sky castle's enormity.
The Digimon residing on it, as crew members, looked at this group of customers with some curiosity.
However, they didn't come over to disturb.
A group of people were quickly led by Broly to Moleculardramon's laboratory on the spaceship.
And Moleculardramon had already prepared on this side; after the research materials arrived here, he immediately called Sagittarimon up onto the experiment table.
"Are you sure it's just a data scan?"
Sagittarimon asked a bit uneasily.
"Of course, rest assured, detecting data, I Moleculardramon am professional."
Moleculardramon pulled down the switch; a pile of data codes quickly appeared on the screen before him.
"So it's like this, human data actually combines with Digimon data in this peculiar way……"
The novel data materials made Moleculardramon excited; if the previous world's humans activated the Fighter's Soul through emotion, thereby achieving human Digimonization, then this world achieves one-mind-one-body Jogress evolution through emotional resonance with partner Digimon.
"Very valuable research data; if used well, perhaps it could achieve Mechanical Digimon, stable Jogress evolution……"
"Hey, your soliloquy was all heard by us; in the end, will extracting evolution data have a negative impact on us or not?"
Sagittarimon was a bit speechless, yet pursued the question.
"Hmm, there is a negative impact; the key to Jogress evolution's link is emotional resonance; in other words, if Sagittarimon's evolution data is extracted, it will cause a portion of memory to disappear, and that memory is the relevant information of the emotional resonance established between you two."
Moleculardramon didn't lie, and this kind of negative impact, for Tamers and Digimon who value each other, is very hard to accept.
Upon learning it was this kind of condition, even Kato Juri couldn't bring herself to speak a request to Makino Ruki.
"But perhaps there's another way; the other three also come up for a data check, perhaps I can find a new way from it."
Okay, Moleculardramon must admit, it fundamentally had no new way, but collecting data materials, using some lies, isn't shameful.
Under the name of researching a new way, it stiffly stayed in this world for a week, until it had researched the human-beast combination data about enough, Moleculardramon then spread its hands.
"Sorry, I still couldn't find a new way; emotional resonance is a must for your Ultimate evolution; wanting to extract your Ultimate level's evolution data, it's unavoidable that this resonance emotion will be extracted together."
Broly was very disappointed; in the end they got nothing, just as they were preparing to leave this world, Fallen Hell Beast came over, in a dogeza posture, requesting they help extract Leomon's data from inside his body.
"Please, I beg you to help revive Leomon; whatever reward you want, just take from my body."
Although Kato Juri had said words of forgiveness when she was rescued, forgiveness is forgiveness, this matter happened, so he forever owes her.
So, upon learning that Leomon's Digimental could be re-condensed by extracting the Leomon data he absorbed himself, Fallen Hell Beast kept it in mind constantly.
Until the other party announced the trade failed, no way, Fallen Hell Beast then came to request.
"Gluttony Beast King, you decide."
Molecule Beast handed the right to decide to Broly; reviving Leomon and such was actually just an excuse.
However, if one truly went through with it, it really was achievable.
"Forget it, just count it as a good deed."
Broly did not refuse Fallen Hell Beast's request.
Seeing this, Matsuda Kaito and the others faced each other in blank dismay.
"Gluttony Beast, you really are a great good person."
Guilmon, Terriermon, and other Digimon praised him even more.
"Hmph, no need for you all to say it, my Abu is the best person there is."
Dorumon was rather smug; he most liked showing off his partner Abu in front of other Digimon who had human partners.
And if possible, Dorumon also wanted to Jogress Evolve with his own boy, just like Guilmon and the others.
But unfortunately, this seemed impossible.
"Extract your Ultimate Level evolution data, then separate the Leomon data inside — that's not difficult, but after separation, putting the scrambled data back in is very hard, so once you choose to extract data, it's equivalent to you devolving back to your original Impmon form. Are you sure you still want to extract?"
After completing the pre-extraction data scan on Fallen Hell Beast, Molecule Beast informed the other party of the consequences after data extraction.
"This is a share of power that lost myself; therefore I killed the Leomon who persuaded me. If it can exchange for Leomon's rebirth, then I am willing to use this power that once brought pain to others to trade for it, and this will also be my rebirth."
Hearing that he would turn back into Rookie Impmon, Fallen Hell Beast did not hesitate; as Leomon said, power isn't everything — what's more important is the bond with the precious people by your side.
For Fallen Hell Beast's request, the Spaceship Fortress stayed one more day.
During this day, Molecule Beast extracted Fallen Hell Beast's data, and from it separated Leomon's data.
Writing the simulation program for Original Village's operation, turning Leomon's data into a Digimental, handing it to Jurimon — only then did Broly and the others depart from this world.
And this world's crisis still wasn't resolved; it was merely shifted from the Real World to the Digital World by one Energy Bullet from Broly.
Matsuda Kaito and the other Tamer children would probably still have to go to the Digital World and fight Diablomon there once more, but that was no longer the business of Broly and them, who had already left this world.
"Dorumon, take out your Dark Evolution Armor."
On the Spaceship that had departed anew, Molecule Beast said to Dorumon.
"What for?"
"There's a share of residual Ultimate Level data here; you don't want it?"
"Uh, I do!"
Dorumon handed over the Dark Evolution Armor, and after the Dark Evolution Armor finished absorbing this share of residual Ultimate Level data, a mutation occurred — a pair of twin guns appeared in front of the demon wings.
Taking it back and attempting Evolution, Dorumon gained a Virus Demon Man Type Ultimate Level form — one of the Digital World's Three Musketeers, known as Lady Beelzemon.
Wearing a pitch-black leather armor set, wrapped in a strip of scarf that can change form according to use, weapons are two short pistols.
Build even more tall and slender than Angewomon, the exposed abdomen has obvious abdominal muscle contours; body temperature no longer icy cold, but warm.
Wearing the same model mask as Fallen Hell Beast on the head, golden long hair scattered haphazardly behind the head, reaching all the way to the perky/firm buttocks.
Overall, this is a female Digimon with heroic bearing, and one acknowledged by Crystal Palace as Forest Elf's Wife Identity.
This gave Broly quite the feeling of losing at sunrise, gaining at sunset.
