Taichi: My Digimon is V-dramon

Chapter 6. Don't ignore any flag
After bidding farewell to Seadramon, Taichi and Zeromaru once again traveled through the forest.

Jumping down from a huge tree root, Taichi looked at the road ahead.

The dense tree roots broke through the ground and formed a natural roadblock. Taiyi was so tired that he was sweating just by climbing over a tree.

If I had known this earlier, I would have let Sora run a few more laps with me.

He also tried to sit on Zeromaru's back, but the bumpy ride was too intense.

This also made Taichi realize a problem. Compared with Digimon, Taichi, who is just a human elementary school student, is still a little inadequate in physique.

"When I give special training to Rei in the future, I'll practice with him too." Tai made up his mind immediately. The battles between tamers are of the same nature as the wild fights between trainers in the Pokémon special comics.

If the enemy Digimon cannot defeat Zeromaru in a head-on battle, they will most likely resort to underhanded tactics and eliminate Taichi, who plays a commanding role, first.

As a tamer, your job is to discover the weaknesses of your partner Digimon and use your own abilities to make up for them. If Taichi becomes Zeromaru's weakness, then that would be putting the cart before the horse.

On the contrary, if the enemy in the future wants to attack Taiyi who looks weaker first, Taiyi will take off his coat, revealing his vest cape and strong muscles, insulting the enemy.

What a beautiful picture that would be.

"Swish--" A dark shadow flew across the air. It was a gear that kept turning and headed towards the top of Mount Miharashi.

Mount Miharashi is a green mountain with layers of overlapping rings as it rises, just like the five-layered Mount Creation.

The spring water flowing down from Mt. Miharashi is extremely sweet, and with the protection of Flamemon in the mountain, many young Digimon choose to live there.

Taiyi, who was arranging an exercise plan for himself, looked up in confusion.

"A Ling, did you hear that?"

"It sounds like there are gears turning."

"It seems that I am not hallucinating. The sound seems to be coming towards us." Taiyi held his forehead. He had a keen feeling that as the plot unfolded like a foreshadowing in a novel, he was afraid that he would encounter the enemy again.

"It doesn't matter, no matter how strong our opponent is, Taichi and I will 100% never lose!" Zeromaru stretched out his hand and made a "V" sign. Seeing his partner so confident, Taichi also cheered up.

"Ah, me too. I can't imagine us losing!"

With 100% fighting spirit, Taichi and Zeromaru took only half the time planned to pass through the natural obstacle formed by the giant trees and walked out of the forest.

They finally arrived at the wasteland area that Taiyi had previously observed.

Without the shade of the leaves, the scorching sun shone directly on the endless sand, and the air around was distorted by the heat.

Coming here in person, Taiyi felt as if he had arrived at the African savannah, so much so that he was too tired to complain when he saw the electric poles standing all around.

Thinking back to the images I observed before, this not-so-big island actually has sea, glaciers, deserts, jungles, and so many regional features. The digital world is really magical.

As they walked down the street, Zeromaru's nose suddenly twitched: "Hmm, Hmm. There's the smell of Digimon up ahead!"

Taiyi's first reaction: "Is it an enemy?"

Zeromaru scratched his bald head and thought for a moment, "It shouldn't be. I smell a lot of Digimon. The village ahead should be where Digimon live."

"There's a village." Taichi looked ahead with anticipation. Since Digimon had the wisdom to build a village, it seemed that he would finally be able to see Digimon other than Zeromaru that could communicate with language.

"A Ling, let's go!"

"it is good."

Having arrived at the flat desert, Taichi rode on Zeromaru's back again. With the other party raising a small sandstorm at such a speed, the two soon arrived at the village that Zeromaru mentioned.

A village made up of a group of straw houses that are not even as high as Taiyi's chest.

Looking down, I saw the ground was densely packed with young Digimon that looked like pink garlic with blue flowers.

It was the first time Taichi saw these plant-like Digimon.

"We are Picomon."

One of the pink garlics said.

These young Picomon had the same temperament as human cubs. They were completely unsuspecting of Taichi and Zeromaru's sudden appearance and looked at them curiously. "What kind of Digimon are you?"

"I'm V-dramon, my name is Zeromaru, and he's Taichi. He's not a Digimon, he's a human."

Facing Bigomon, Remaru smiled softly, completely lacking the fiery attitude he had during the battle.

Picomon repeated softly, "V-dramon? Human?" These were all unfamiliar words that had never been recorded in their data core.

Zeromaru put his hands on his hips and smiled proudly: "I'm in the mature stage!"

"Wow!"

"It's actually mature!"

"So cool!"

"Just like Flamemon!"

The gathered Picomon opened their mouths in surprise, and Zeromaru enjoyed their admiring looks very much.

Taichi, who was standing by, looked at Reimaru, who was surrounded by people like a school bully, and smiled:

"He's just a precocious child."

"Hey." One of the big beasts came to Taiyi, with a wooden bowl on her head. "Come and drink some water."

"Thank you." By the way, how do they carve wood into bowls?

Complaining in his heart, Taiyi took the bowl and drank all the water in it.

Cross-country running in the forest did consume a lot of water and energy from Taiyi.

I don’t know if this is the reason, but this bowl of water tastes particularly good.

Seeing Taichi's satisfied look, Bigomon also smiled and said, "This is spring water flowing down from Mount Miharashi. It's very sweet."

"Mt. Miharashi?"

"That's the mountain."

Bigomon tilted its body and pointed its pistil behind Taichi.

Looking back, there was indeed a green mountain with layers of layers in the forest.

"It's that mountain of creation that's only green."

Taiyi had a complicated expression, as he remembered the black gear that had flown past his ear before.

I always feel that something is going on.

"boom!"

Sure enough, a Picomon came running back from the fountain crying.

"Oh no, it's burning, it's burning!"

The fountain that originally gushed out sweet spring water now continuously spewed out pillars of fire like hellfire.

"Something really happened." Taiyi wiped the sweat off his forehead. The temperature around him seemed to become even hotter.

Not only the fountain, but also the small river next to it was burned dry for unknown reasons. The wells in the village were also burned dry. In short, all the places connected to the spring water of Mount Miharashi were spewing out blazing columns of fire.

"Something must have happened to Flamemon!" Picomon, who had returned from the fountain, sat in Taichi's arms, tears in the corners of his eyes.

"Flamemon?" Taichi pointed to a red flame that was rushing down from the top of Mount Miharashi and heading towards the Bigomon village at an astonishing speed.

"Is that what you mean?"
