Digimon: I really didn't want to be the Digimon Emperor!

Meanwhile, the flying insect beasts finally found Xu Xin's team in Savage Valley. They were preparing to return empty-handed—the entire Savage Valley was deserted, without even a trace of a savage beast.

"Several Champion-level Digimon have appeared on Green Fruit Mountain?" Xu Xin frowned after hearing Flymon's report. "It seems Shamanmon has also gone there."

He made a quick decision: "Teachers, take the students back first, and a few of us will go and take a look."

The Dark Tyrannosaurus Beast raised its head and let out a deafening roar. Xu Xin's team quickly climbed onto its shoulders. With a series of earth-shaking footsteps, the elite team sped towards Green Fruit Mountain.

Cheng Yuan was completely unaware of this. He was focused on "driving" the Silver Horned Beast towards the Hanu tribe.

As darkness approached, they quickened their pace.

Cheng Yuan sat in the cockpit of the Silver Horned Beast, watching the shadows of trees rushing past through the observation window, pondering his next plan. The little dog beast lay on his head, its two front paws gripping his hair tightly, as if afraid of being thrown off by the jolts.

"Hey Little Silver Horn," Cheng Yuan said, fiddling with the joystick as he tried to get information out of you, "how does your sister usually train you?"

The silver-horned beast's voice came from all directions, tinged with grievance: "Sister...sister always kicks me..."

"Huh?" Cheng Yuan almost burst out laughing. "How do you kick it?"

"It's...it's that..." the silver-horned beast stammered, gesturing towards the name, "【Lightning Ghost Kick】! Every time I slack off from training, my sister uses this move to kick me into the lake..."

Cheng Yuan imagined the scene—the majestic silver-horned beast being kicked away like a ball and falling into the water with a splash—and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Woof!" The little beast suddenly perked up its ears. "There's something up ahead!"

"That's the territory of the Hanu tribe ahead," Cheng Yuan said, pointing to a high ground in the distance through the observation window.

On a distant hillside, a group of mischievous monkeys were building defensive fortifications. They wove nets from vines and hung huge stones from the treetops, creating makeshift catapults.

Cheng Yuan adjusted the joystick, slowing the silver-horned beast down. "Little silver-horned beast, remember our agreement—when you see your sister later, you need to be firm!"

"But...but my sister will be angry..." The silver-horned beast's voice grew softer and softer.

"Think about game consoles!" Cheng Yuan tempted. "If you do well this time, I'll bring you the latest PS25 when we get back!"

"R-Really?" The silver-horned beast immediately perked up, its steps becoming lighter.

Meanwhile, at the Hanu tribe's temporary camp, the Sepik Beast and the Target Beast were discussing countermeasures.

"The King Kong tribe is wiped out," Target Beast said gravely. "Now only the two of us at maturity are left. How can we withstand the Savage Beasts' attack? Should we run away?"

The mask of the Sepikmon shimmered faintly: "This space is only so big, where can we escape to? And there's the Flying Insect Beast, humans are already our allies, it's going to seek more help..."

"Hmph, humans... they just treat us like domesticated animals, otherwise they wouldn't be occupying this spatial rift..."

Before he could finish speaking, the ground suddenly shook. The two Digimon looked up alertly and saw the massive figure of Silverhorn appear at the foot of the hill.

"Prepare for battle!" Target Beast immediately pulled out his brand-name sneakers.

"Wait!" Sepikmon stopped it. "Look—"

The hatch on the belly of the silver-horned beast slowly opened, and Cheng Yuan, holding the little dog beast, sat inside and waved to them.

The target beast narrowed its eyes: "A human beast tamer?"

"Everyone!" Cheng Yuan raised his hands, "I have good news and bad news for you!"

"The good news is that the Silverhorn is now our ally!" He said from inside the cockpit, feeling a sense of superiority.

"What's the bad news?" Sepikmon asked.

"The Golden Horned Beast is leading a large army on its way," Cheng Yuan said, taking off his helmet and wiping his sweat. "And... they seem to have allied with the Wind Calamity Beast and the Demon Beast." This information came from the Silver Horned Beast.

The silver-horned beast suddenly stopped in its tracks: "Th-that's...!"

Target Beast's expression turned grim: "Wind Calamity Beast? That madman got involved too?"

The Sepikmon's face was obscured by the mask, but his breathing seemed rapid.

Cheng Yuan nodded.

Through the conversations along the way, he learned a great deal from the Silverhorn Beast. The four leaders of Savage Valley seemed to have reached some kind of agreement, preparing to wipe out the Stubborn Monkey Beast clan in one fell swoop.

"Is that big, handsome pink monkey the leader of the Target Beasts?" Cheng Yuan asked, having noticed the pink monkey from the very beginning.

"Class representative!" Kang Zhao waved from afar, "I've brought the Target Beast!"

Cheng Yuan took a closer look and almost burst out laughing—the Target Beast was wearing brand-name sneakers with its hands on its head.

Kang Zhaodi noticed Cheng Yuan's gaze, and looked at his toes peeking out from under his worn-out shoes with a wry smile: "My limited edition Air Jordans..."

Cheng Yuan suppressed a laugh and waved, calling out, "Target Beast Leader, thank you for coming to our aid."

The Target Beast arrogantly raised its chin: "Hmph! I'm not here to help you! I just... just wanted to kick the Savage Beast's ass!"

"Yes, yes, yes," Cheng Yuan nodded repeatedly, "That savage's ass deserves a kick!"

At that moment, Cheng Yuan's Digivice vibrated. He checked the information on it: [Team Leader Xu and the others are on their way. However, we have also received a mission from the Association to clear out the excess Champion-level Digimon in this Digital Space.]

"Clean up?" Cheng Yuan's heart tightened. "What do you mean?"

Wang Lin sighed: "It means exactly what it says. The number of mature units in this space has exceeded the limit, and the association is worried it might trigger a riot."

Cheng Yuan looked at the Silverhorn that was enveloping him, as well as the Sepikmon and Targetmon outside, and suddenly realized a terrible problem—these Digimon that had just become allies were very likely the targets that the Association wanted to "clean up".

Is there no other way?

Wang Lin: [Unless...they are willing to be tamed and become tamers' partners. But Champion-level Digimon rarely accept this arrangement.]

Cheng Yuan fell into deep thought.

At this moment, the ground began to shake again, this time more violently than before.

"They're here!" Seppimon drew its boomerang and pointed in a direction. "It's the Goldhorn battle group!"

Cheng Yuan followed its gaze and saw a vast army of savage beasts appearing on the horizon.

Leading the pack was the imposing Golden Horned Beast, its spiked club gleaming coldly in the sunlight.

On the other side was the Wind Calamity Beast, holding a bone scepter, its fangs bared and its bright red body particularly conspicuous. Behind it was a dense swarm of wild beasts, as well as a group of shaman beasts.

Meanwhile, a group of savage beasts, led by a demon beast, hurriedly arrived to join them. This force was newly formed, and the number of savage beasts was not large.

"Prepare for battle!" Seppimon raised its staff high. "This is Monkeymon's battle for survival!"

Cheng Yuan suddenly raised his hand: "Wait! Maybe...maybe there's still room for negotiation!"

He turned to the silver-horned beast: "Little silver-horned, it's your turn! Remember our agreement!"

The silver-horned beast's voice suddenly became timid: "Sister, sister is angry..."

Cheng Yuan could clearly feel the silver-horned beast trembling slightly. This behemoth, invincible on the battlefield, was actually so afraid of his sister's anger.

"Don't panic!" Cheng Yuan said quickly, thinking quickly. "Just do it our rehearsal!"

He took a deep breath and pushed the joystick. The silver-horned beast's massive body slowly turned towards the gold-horned beast, rising from the hidden forest to reveal itself, and then—

"Sister—Sister—" the silver-horned beast called out in a drawn-out tone, its voice full of grievance, "I—I found a better drink!"
