Chapter 306: Want Us to Leave This World Sooner

"The X Antibody is special data born from Digimon struggling to survive during the X Program's deletion process; it can greatly stimulate a Digimon's potential, effectively an evolution a step beyond their original evolutionary stage."

"And now, BelStarmon X and FairyMon X, who have completed X Evolution by absorbing X Antibody data, can be called Super Ultimate and Super Perfect existences; you don't need to worry about them possibly experiencing self-deletion of data again……"

"WarGreymon, can I trust your words? You sacrificed yourself for this world before my eyes, yet suddenly reappeared and came to tell us about X Evolution; are you really still the original WarGreymon?"

Broly questioned the identity of the WarGreymon before him.

"I'm not sure myself if I'm the original WarGreymon; Yggdrasil reshaped my body using my data."

"When I came to, I found myself in a Data Space, having become a new Royal Knight, but one thing is certain: I still possess the memories of the past, including the memories of taking out the X Antibody and giving it to you."

WarGreymon answered.

"There's also the possibility of tampered memories; want me to help you check your data?"

Nanomon proposed.

"If that would put your minds at ease."

WarGreymon did not refuse, and entered the Lab with Nanomon, voluntarily lying inside the Data Scanner.

However, even if WarGreymon had some issue, Nanomon actually wouldn't be able to detect it; it simply wanted to research the data of this Super Ultimate that had delivered itself to its door.

And such data was meaningful; after collection was complete, Nanomon felt it could upgrade the Spaceship Fortress's Main Force Cannon — the Ultimate Destruction Cannon.

"Yggdrasil feels uneasy because of your stay in this world, and thus commands me to ask when you will be able to leave this world?"

Inside the Data Scanner pod, WarGreymon stated his purpose for coming.

The power Broly displayed, and his lingering in this world, placed immense pressure on this world's Yggdrasil.

And the option of using violence to expel him was fundamentally unworkable; the Twelve Royal Knights had already proven this with their lives.

Even if Yggdrasil could fish out its own Paladins from the Dark Area, engaging in battle again would not change the outcome.

Yggdrasil could easily calculate this, so it became extremely polite, not at all like the original supreme ruler of this Digital World whose word was law, but instead dispatched WarGreymon to negotiate.

"We remain in this world because the Gluttony Lord is worried about Lord Dilu's safety; Dilu is BelStarmon's devolved form, and he fears that after leaving, the X Program inside Dilu's body might activate again, and we might not be able to return to this world."

"Regarding this point, I already explained it clearly just now, right?"

"The words of you, who are already a Royal Knight, are not necessarily trustworthy; given the Gluttony Lord's doting on Lord Dilu, even if he abandoned his original purpose, he would not let something happen that puts the other in danger again."

Nanomon wasn't lying; because of the X Program matter, their stay in this world had already been extended indefinitely.

"This is a bit troublesome; a large-scale war is about to break out in this world before long."

Walking out of the Data Scanner, WarGreymon scratched his head, a troubled expression appearing on his face.

"War? Has this world's Yggdrasil still not learned enough of a lesson, daring to challenge the Gluttony Lord?"

Nanomon found it strange, and asked directly.

"It's not challenging him; rather, the Seven Great Demon Lords' armies from the Dark Area are gathering, preparing to attack out from the world breach he punched open; the Surface World and Inner World are about to erupt in war, and this is the future Yggdrasil predicted."

"What does that have to do with us? Can those Dark Area Digimon even beat the Gluttony Lord?"

Nanomon didn't care; having traversed three worlds, it had fully recognized its own Lord's strength, and simply didn't put this world's Dark Area Digimon in its eyes.

"Indeed it has nothing to do with you, but if you continue lingering in this world, Yggdrasil will, out of wariness of you, preserve its own power, and lack Yggdrasil's help, the Surface World will likely be unable to withstand the Seven Great Demon Lords' offensive."

WarGreymon explained.

"Isn't that exactly to this world's Yggdrasil's liking? It can clear out many Digimon's data without using the X Program."

"Dark Data is also data; once the quantity becomes excessive, it will be even more uncontrollable than the X Program, and this world will still be destroyed."

"So, you mean you want to ask our Gluttony Lord to help you defeat the Seven Great Demon Lords' army from the Dark Area?"

"It's not asking you to help us defeat the Seven Great Demon Lords' army." WarGreymon paused, then continued: "Compared to being deleted by the X Program, we would be more willing to die in battle against the Seven Great Demon Lords' army."

"Because of the Gluttony Lord, Yggdrasil has already abandoned execution of the original Ark Project; next, it will guide a great war between the Surface World and the Dark Area."

"That will be a war to clean up data; countless Digimon will be thrown into this war, and then die in battle."

"But to guarantee the battlefield situation remains balanced, Yggdrasil must reserve corresponding power; and if you continue lingering in this world, Yggdrasil will have to guard against you, which may lead to a situation where it cannot maintain the battlefield situation."

"You make it sound like Yggdrasil can currently withstand the Gluttony Lord, if the Gluttony Lord truly wanted to destroy this world."

"Indeed it cannot withstand him, but Yggdrasil is just that rigid."

Honestly, WarGreymon also couldn't understand Yggdrasil's thinking.

However, Yggdrasil's logic is actually very simple: it just rigidly calculates probability risks, then selects the approach with lower risk.

For example, regarding data clearance, this world's Yggdrasil had many choices, but it specifically chose to fabricate the X Program dedicated to deleting Digimon data, to execute the so-called Ark Project.

And during the Ark Project's execution, after kicking Broly this massive steel plate from another world, the risk of continuing the Ark Project became too great, so Yggdrasil decisively terminated the Ark Project.

The Seven Great Demon Lords mobilizing their armies was seen by Yggdrasil, but in order to continue clearing overloaded memory data, it did not choose to repair the Surface World breach punched out by Broly, merely silently correcting the Ark Project — which had increased in risk — into a War-Inciting Plan with relatively smaller risk.

Similarly, after the War-Inciting Plan was corrected, because Broly this unpredictable massive threat had not left this world, it also suffered Yggdrasil's consideration.

Yggdrasil again had to allocate a large portion of its power to guard against Broly this threat; even though calculation showed this guarding might be useless, Yggdrasil also had no intention of giving up and leaving things be, but actively made strategy, dispatching WarGreymon to negotiate.

Every decision Yggdrasil made was to lower the risk of this Digital World being destroyed; it is like a masterful Artificial Intelligence chess player, keeping the entire situation heading toward the most correct outcome.

And during this period, all Digimon in this world are its pieces, even including itself as one of the pieces, as long as there is need.

"Such rigid calculation, I can actually understand."

Nanomon merely simulated Yggdrasil's thinking, and felt the logic was very clear; only because most of the time it also thinks about problems this way.

"Ah, you can understand?"

WarGreymon was somewhat surprised, then wanted to ask Nanomon to persuade the boy.

"I can help you persuade, but what's the price? You should know, leaving this world quickly has no benefit for us either."

"Then what do you want?"

"You're a reasonable Digimon, and this world's Yggdrasil is the same; how about this: you hand over the X Program's source code to me; as long as I research it thoroughly, the Gluttony Lord should be able to rest easy."

"Second, because of the X Program's ripple effects, our Spaceship Fortress this side consumed a large amount of data; we need to obtain corresponding data compensation from your side; anyway, this world's data is going to be deleted, so why not give us the unwanted data."

Nanomon proposed conditions.

In response, WarGreymon uploaded the conditions it spoke of to Yggdrasil's Data Space, and soon received Yggdrasil's reply.

"The World Tree has agreed to your request."

"Cooperation pleasant. And the Gluttony Beast King, seeing your sincerity, will surely understand your worries and agree to your request to leave this world as soon as possible."

The X Program's source code was traded over, and at the same time, vast data records of three species were also traded over.

Molecule Beast did not stand on ceremony, immediately utilizing this massive compensation data to perform a second upgrade on the Spaceship Fortress.

It modified the Ultimate Destruction Cannon into an output muzzle capable of firing Gaia Energy Bullets, and also obtained Steel Garurumon's data records, adding an Absolute Zero Bullet output port.

However, the ultimate weapon was the Ripple Cannon capable of releasing the X Program. This weapon is useless against Broly, who is not a Digimon, and also useless against Digimon that have acquired the X Antibody, but for those Digimon without the X Antibody, it can be called a super-scale weapon of mass destruction.

With this thing, Molecule Beast felt that returning to its original world, it might even be able to pilot this weapon-system-upgraded spaceship and solo the Dark Four Heavenly Kings.

Of course, the premise is guaranteeing they cannot form the X Antibody. Once they form the X Antibody, it would be an action akin to trying to steal a chicken only to lose the rice used to lure it, but it is indeed a trump card.

And the Dark Space serving as the power source was also remodeled into the kind possessed by the World Tree, a Data Space capable of efficiently transmitting data energy.

In other words, the problem of being unable to leave the Shinjuku area in the previous world due to real-world physical rules will be solved. This Spaceship Fortress will be able to continue guaranteeing the normal operation of the ship's power system even in a no-data environment. The Data Space is essentially a mobile base station.

Besides that, the Digimon crew on the spaceship also gained benefits. Under the supply of massive compensation data from this Digital World's World Tree, they absorbed data and completed Super Evolution one by one, and some even crossed the limit of the Perfect level, evolving into Ultimate-level Digimon.

Piximon X evolved into MarineAngemon X. The two Lillymon X evolved, one into Rosemon X and the other into BanchoLilimon X. And even Tailmon's Lilimon form, under the stacking of terrifying data volume, evolved into Lotusmon X form.

But unfortunately, Lotusmon X is not a wife form recognized by the Crystal Palace. However, the King Flower Beast that Lilimon X dragged Rosemon X into Jogress evolving into is among the wife forms.

King Flower Beast is very strong, strong enough that the X Antibody cannot act on this form.

However, Broly was not happy. Because if not for this world's World Tree stepping in to help, Tailmon X and the others who evolved into King Flower Beast might not have been able to degenerate back.

Tailmon X's somewhat reckless Jogress evolution behavior nearly got herself and Rosemon X killed. This made Broly angry at her for the first time.

"Sorry, A-Bu. I guarantee there won't be a next time."

Tailmon X swayed in front of Broly, knowing she had done wrong, she was extremely uneasy.

Fortunately, Broly was only worried about her, not truly angry, and forgave her soon after.

"Since this world's World Tree has a way to separate you, then take advantage of when you can risk-free evolve into King Flower Beast, and in King Flower Beast form agree to become my wife."

Broly didn't waste the opportunity either.

"Eh?!"

The World Tree, which helped separate the King Flower Beast data twice: "..."

Just like that, among all the wife evolution forms Tailmon X currently possesses, it was the newly evolved King Flower Beast, this Jogress evolution form, that took the lead in becoming Broly's Digimon wife.

Although he harvested this form's Happiness Value early, because Tailmon X already possessed very high Happiness Value, Broly still obtained nearly 170,000 Happiness Points.

King Flower Beast was very happy. Knowing that 'wife' implies a lifelong partner, she hugged her boy immediately after becoming his wife, rubbing against him with incomparable intimacy.

It was only after the Jogress evolution was undone that Rosemon X, who Ultimate evolved from Lilamon, became a bit embarrassed.

During the Jogress evolution, her consciousness was fully synchronized with Tailmon's. Tailmon's liking for Broly could be completely felt by her.

That was a feeling distinct from the loyalty these Digimon subordinates feel for their own King. This made the post-Jogress Rosemon X a bit uncomfortable.

On the contrary, BanchoLilimon X, who evolved from Palmon, developed a somewhat carefree personality, treating her own King like a good buddy.

"Yo, Gluttony Beast King. You're cooperating with Lady Tailmon to adapt to the Belphemon X form? Mind if I join in?"

This guy has serious third-wheel potential. He often joins in when Broly accompanies Belphemon X to practice shooting.

But it must be said, this guy's strength is not bad. Relying on a pair of yo-yos, she can exchange blows with Belphemon X's dual guns. Hard to believe she and the originally somewhat clumsy, gluttonous Palmon are the same Digimon.

And similarly contrasting with BanchoLilimon is MarineAngemon X. Originally in Piximon form, it possessed very strong combat power, but after evolving into MarineAngemon X, it directly became a pure support Digimon, with not a single attacking move.

This change made the MarineAngemon X evolved from Piximon find it hard to keep a straight face. However, replacing that, it gained an extremely terrifying support ability: the skill 【Love of the Great Sea】, which can make all enemies lose their will to fight in an instant.

Even Broly, after being hit by MarineAngemon X's attack, would have his mood become peaceful. A feeling like lying in a warm quilt in the dead of winter, completely not wanting to move. Of course, for Broly, it's more like the feeling of lying on Bay Beast sunbathing as a child. Very comfortable.

"Geez, have I completely become your sleep aid tool?"

MarineAngemon X complained a bit, but still released Love of the Great Sea at Belphemon X and Broly. Broly lay lazily on Belphemon X, and Belphemon X also lazily embraced the boy.

Above their heads was the azure sky. Leisurely, almost feeling like time wasn't passing, but Happiness Value could rapidly increase in this kind of time.

Although it might only be one or two points more than the previous daily average Happiness Value increase, MarineAngemon truly lives up to the title of Best Strong Support.

"You've given the X Program and data we wanted. When exactly are you leaving?"

Craniummon, fished out of the Dark Area by the World Tree, came over to press the Spaceship Fortress for the specific time of leaving this world.

With the Dark Area Seven Great Demon Lords' great army and the Surface World Digimon great army respectively pressing toward the world breach Broly blasted out, the World Tree's side also became somewhat anxious.

"You have indeed paid the price. I'll go ask the Gluttony Beast King."

Molecule Beast was the only one who did not absorb the massive data to evolve, because it still hadn't decided on its evolution line. Before, it wanted to evolve into Machinedramon, but now it looks down on Machinedramon a bit.

"Then go ask quickly."

Goldramon, who came along, urged a sentence.

"Gluttony Beast King, the Spaceship Fortress's internal data storage is full. Should we depart for the New World?"

A small drone came to Broly's side, where he was passing days leisurely on the roof, but it was Molecule Beast's voice coming from inside.

"Accepting people's benefits, doing them conveniences. Since this world's World Tree is in such a rush to see guests off, then let's leave."

Thinking of something, he paused, then Broly roused some spirit from his lazy state and added to the drone: "Molecule Beast, next world, don't dress me wrong."

"Understood. This time definitely won't be wrong."

Hearing this, Molecule Beast's heart tightened. He understood this was a warning to himself.

Perhaps in the next world, if a similar danger like the X Program appears again, the Gluttony Beast King would make a move against him, this navigator.

Molecule Beast no longer dared to mess with the spacetime frequency. After the two Royal Knights left the Spaceship Fortress, he opened a new Time-Space Tunnel according to the deduced, presumably correct spacetime frequency.

The once again iterated, and terrifyingly iterated Spaceship Fortress rushed into the Time-Space Tunnel. And not long after Broly and the others left this world, the great war between this world's Surface and Dark Area Digimon broke out.

The Seven Great Demon Lords ruling the Dark Area, discovering the World Tree had not repaired the breach from the Dark Area to the Surface World, attacked in high excitement.

"I've had enough of always staying in the pitch-black dark lands. This time the Surface World will become our territory. Attack."

Lilithmon issued the attack order. The dark army surged toward the breach like a tide.

"Block the invasion of evil Digimon from the Dark Area!"

Red Lotus Knightmon issued the order: even knowing that this Great War was deliberately allowed by the World Tree, in order to eliminate surplus Digimon numbers, it was still far better than releasing the X Program itself to play executioner and eliminate other Digimon.

The Ark Project seemed never to have appeared, and the guilt for this World, partially destroyed by the Saiyan boy, was instead placed upon the Seven Great Demon Lords of the Dark Area.

A protracted Great War between good and evil began, and the World Tree of this World thereby comprehended the thought of Eternal Balance.
