"Okay... I can try to overpower him with the Force of Steel."

The White Tiger Beast panted heavily, and after adjusting its state to be able to move normally, the twelve cores on its waist started to work frantically, raising metal barriers from all directions in an attempt to block the actions of [Adam the Devourer]. At the same time, huge swords fell from the sky and launched a counterattack against him.

However, this series of attacks did not make [Adam the Devourer] retreat. On the contrary, he simply raised his hands, and black and white data like a storm swept across the entire sky. All the falling giant swords collapsed the moment they came into contact with the black and white data.

After neutralizing the White Tiger Beast's attack, [Adam the Devourer] lowered his head, with a creepy chill in his one eye.

[Stop wasting your time, you lowly creature.]

The distorted sound waves spread in the minds of Byakkomon and Nishijima Daigo. It was low and hoarse, containing an inexplicable weirdness. This was the sound after the fusion of Belphemon and Kurata Akihiro, and it was also the combination of their unwillingness to fail.

Nishijima Daigo's heart trembled, as if a cursed distorted sound wave struck his soul directly, quietly seeping into the depths of his heart, and memories of the past began to emerge.

"H-What did you do to Daigo?!"

The first thing White Tiger Beast noticed was that Daigo Nishijima's breathing became rapid. Realizing that something was wrong, he let out a low growl, and his claws pierced through the air like sharp blades, roaring and trying to stop [Adam the Devourer] from interfering with his partner.

But [Adam the Devourer] took the opportunity to get close to the White Tiger Beast. Countless black and white data gathered in his hands, hitting the White Tiger Beast's body like a storm, instantly tearing open the flesh of the holy beast and putting the opponent into trouble.

The white tiger beast, which was hit hard again, let out a low roar, and its entire body was thrown to the ground, and finally fell to the ground powerlessly.

[This attack is useless to me, I have higher level permissions.]

The low and hoarse sound waves entered the White Tiger Beast's mind, like a call from a dark area, causing the holy beast, which was at a disadvantage, to tremble involuntarily.

"…What on earth are you?"

As sharp as a knife scraping against rusty metal, [Adam the Devourer] slowly uttered these words.

[I am the Devourer, the new god of the digital world. You can call me Adam.]

"Devourer, Adam...?"

Another voice like the whisper of the abyss suddenly echoed in the center of the battlefield.

[Adam the Devourer], who was about to end the battle, suddenly raised his head. Above the ruins, he felt the impending danger.

He looked around. The city streets were still shrouded in an oppressive atmosphere, but beneath that atmosphere, a corrosive force different from his own was infecting the area.

Suddenly, a tiny red light flickered in the sky, and then a ray of light like the twinkling stars in the dark night bloomed, attracting his attention.

Finally, a dark knight whose body was covered by a black cloak and whose face could not be seen stepped out of the clouds like a shadow and slowly landed on the ground.

……

"Two... there are two [Devourers]?"

The excited voice of Suedou Akihiro suddenly appeared in the laboratory.

As his fingers quickly tapped the keyboard, a new image model immediately appeared on the screen. He concentrated on screening the data and analyzing it more deeply so that he could get the results in the shortest time.

The whole process was filled with a tense and exciting atmosphere. As he continued to adjust parameters and calculations, the most accurate results soon appeared before his eyes.

"Oh my...why is it you?"

Looking at the final data and results displayed on the computer screen, Mingshi Suedou felt very confused.

His thoughts were running at high speed as the computer analyzed it.

“…It’s really interesting.”

Finally, with a bold conjecture in his mind, he once again put his hands on the computer, trying to verify his conjecture and theory by recalculating.

……

When the Dark Knight appeared in the sight of [Adam the Devourer], the dark energy emanating from him filled the entire area, which made [Adam the Devourer] confused and puzzled.

[I don't understand... fellow... this is the area I'm responsible for supervising. Why did you go against the orders of the Matrix and come to infect this area?]

The Dark Knight stared at [Adam the Devourer] without saying a word. His eyes revealed a cold majesty, and a terrible power gathered on him.

"similar?"

After a brief hesitation, the dark energy accumulated in the body suddenly burst out, like a destructive storm, violently impacting the body of [Adam the Devourer].

"You are my enemy, there is no doubt about that. Prepare to die."

The Dark Knight's presence was like darkness sweeping in, and the cloak covering his body flew backwards the next second after he waved his left hand, revealing his true face.

The pure black paladin——Omegamon Zwart.

[Is it you?!]

[Adam the Devourer], who had integrated all of Akihiro Kurata's memories, recognized Omegamon Zwart the moment he saw him, and then he let out a shrill scream. The recognized pure black paladin did not hold back at all, and every slash of the pitch-black Tyrannosaurus sword brought destructive power.

[Why?! Shouldn't you be transformed into data and eroded by the Matrix?!]

[Adam the Devourer] roared angrily. His instinct as a higher-dimensional being made him unwilling to retreat. He dodged the Tyrannosaurus Sword while launching an attack.

[Why are you still alive?!]

His fighting stance is filled with bestial strength, and every punch he throws brings Belphemon's demon king body to its fullest potential.

Omegamon Zwart remained silent and did not answer his question. His eyes were cold and sharp. He just cleverly dodged the attacks from Adam the Devourer and looked for any flaws that might be exposed during his continuous attacks.

The battle intensified, and black and white data filled the air. Whether it was Omegamon Zwart or [Adam the Devourer], their bodies were covered with scars.

"That's... Kanda's partner?"

The black armor reflected the dark light. After getting rid of the mental shock, the first thing Daigo Nishijima saw was the pure black knight fighting with [Adam the Devourer], and his eyes were full of disbelief.

In the end what happened?

He took out his cell phone and tried to call his students.

But soon, a reminder came from the other end of the phone that the call could not be connected.

"Daigo...are you okay?"

On a battlefield shrouded in darkness, White Tiger Beast demonstrated his strong recovery ability. After [Adam the Devourer] was led away by the suddenly appearing Dark Knight, he got enough time to catch his breath and was now able to fight again.

"It doesn't matter... I can still continue to fight with you."

Nishijima Daigo dusted himself off and stood up again, calmly looking at his partner White Tigermon beside him. Even though the aftereffects of the mind shock made him feel like vomiting, at this moment, he had made up his mind and did not want to back down.

"Let's go help that dark knight deal with Adam!"

"Don't worry, we will succeed."

The white tiger beast straightened its body and let out a low roar. Its sharp claws flashed with cold light, waiting for an opportunity to attack [Adam the Devourer].

"Is this the form you ascend to after eroding the Demon King?"

In the center of the ruined battlefield, the silent Omegamon Zwart suddenly asked a question. He raised his right arm calmly and an energy cannon like a thunderstorm rushed out.

[Before answering this question, maybe you could tell me why you are still alive?]

The scarlet eye stared at Omegamon Zwart, and [Adam the Devourer] had almost no intention of dodging. He swung out his right fist and collided with the Garuru Cannon. Then, while a series of explosions produced thick smoke, he swung his fist again at the pure black paladin.

"…Since you want to know so much, I can tell you."

Omegamon Zwart said this, while glancing at White Tigermon who had already pounced behind [Adam the Devourer].

"Perhaps your mother body has been damaged?"

[It is simply impossible...]

Just as he was about to refute Omegamon Zwart, Byakkomon used all his strength to pounce fiercely at [Devourer-Adam]. The huge impact force knocked the human-formed Adam to the ground, and their fighting figures intertwined and entangled in the ruins.

"Get out of my way, you lowly data creature!"

Feeling humiliated, [Adam the Devourer] forcibly pried open the white tiger beast's claws. A ray of hellfire appeared in his left hand and pierced directly into the vitals, knocking the holy beast to the ground again.

But just as he withdrew his attention from the white tiger beast, a sword light cut through the night sky, accurately pierced through his body, and reached the control hub in his body.

[Adam the Devourer]'s mind went blank, and then a sharp and piercing cry resounded through Omegamon Zwart's mind.

"The Chosen One!"

Chapter 39 Zwart

When the Devourer sublimates to the [Adam] stage, it is difficult to suppress him in close combat without special abilities.

After becoming Ultimate Digimon, most Digimon will possess some weapons and protective gear made of Time Digizoid. However, these superalloys, which are usually used as trump cards, are actually no different from ordinary metals when facing the strange abilities of the [Devourer].

But in this situation, Omegamon Zwart used the Tyrannosaurus Sword fused with the Alloy of Time to pierce through his body. Although it was not fatal, Adam's control hub was also affected.

Countless black and white tentacles waved at the wound, as if being pulled, they swarmed into Omegamon's Tyrannosaurus Sword, and the dark holy sword became even more bizarre and twisted.

"What? My data..."

[Adam] then discovered that the data in his body was constantly being absorbed by the Tyrannosaurus Sword, and he didn't even know what was happening.

"...As expected, after being corrupted, we also gained the ability of the Devourer."

Clearly feeling the growth of power in his body, Omegamon whispered that after waking up from the eroded space, he found that his form was infected by unknown black data and transformed into a form called "Zwart", and at the same time seemed to have gained new abilities.

"Are you still unwilling to give up, Akihiro Kurata? I know a great researcher who may be able to find a way to help you escape from the control of the Devourer."

Omegamon swung the Tyrannosaurus Sword with all his might, forcibly suppressing [Adam]'s activity area within the range of the Tyrannosaurus Sword's attack.

"Give up? I am the God who is about to establish a new order!"

[Adam], who possessed all of Kurata Akihiro's memories, sneered, raised his corroded right hand, and the next moment rushed towards Omegamon again.

Although he vaguely sensed that Omegamon's Tyrannosaurus Sword had some ability to restrain him, [Adam], or Akihiro Kurata, knew very well that if he was defeated by the opponent, his fate would not be good.

The huge impact was transmitted to Omegamon's whole body, but he did not retreat. Instead, he used the force to raise the Tyrannosaurus Sword high, and then with a deafening buzzing sound, he swung it down again.

The fallen holy sword tore through [Adam]'s body almost without any hindrance. After being infected, the Tyrannosaurus Sword no longer bestowed a large-scale scorching hurricane, but greatly strengthened the Tyrannosaurus sword, allowing it to easily penetrate the body of the [Devourer].

Strange tentacles emerged from the wound and wrapped around the Tyrannosaurus Sword, and were then cut apart by the sharp sword energy on the sword. The loss of data in the chest caused [Adam]'s body to groan in pain.

"It hurts so much... Chosen One, what on earth did you get from the Matrix?"

The strange corrosive ability also lost its effect in Omegamon's "Zwart" form, but [Adam] smiled bitterly, and then, still unwilling to admit defeat, he raised his hands to his chest, and a pair of claws emitting green light slowly emerged.

This is the ability obtained from the "Demon Lord of Sloth" Belphemon. [Adam] wields sharp claws in both hands and stares at Omegamon with his strange one eye. In the next battle, he will use this weapon to block the attack of the Tyrannosaurus Sword.

"You won't stand a chance, Adam. I'm going to kill you next."

Omegamon raised the Garuru Cannon directly, and the dark muzzle exuded terrifying energy, pointing it directly at [Adam]'s head, and the dazzling energy cannon rushed towards him.

[Adam] then dodged the attack of the Garuru Cannon with a quick sideways move, and just as he was about to counterattack, he suddenly felt a sinking sensation on his back.

"Deal with him—Royal Knights!"

This time, the white tiger beast did not give [Adam] a chance to escape. His claws pierced into the opponent's body, and even though the discomfort from the erosion spread throughout his body, he still did not loosen his grip.

The dark paladin nodded in response to the holy beast, his eyes calm, and then he swung out the sharp Tyrannosaurus sword, which was wrapped in unstoppable light and completely penetrated [Adam]'s body, piercing fear and destruction into [Adam]'s mind.

What is this?

At the same time as he was completely pierced by the Tyrannosaurus Sword, darkness inevitably appeared in [Adam]'s vision. This determined high-dimensional creature finally felt uneasy because of the sudden infection.

This seems to be the spiritual space of that human being.

He could feel his body falling, the blackness around him was beginning to change, and the distorted data of [Devourer] was constantly disintegrating.

"The Chosen One—"

he shouted angrily.

"Alright alright...I'm right here, no need to shout."

What was surprising was that in this strange spiritual space, someone actually spoke out and responded to [Adam].

The former chosen one slowly walked out from the shadows. Although he was alone, Kanda Osamu seemed very indifferent. Then he stopped when he was only ten meters away from the other person.

"How does it feel to be human again, Akihiro Kurata?"

Upon hearing the human's name, [Adam] was stunned for a moment. He lowered his head uneasily, and then turned his gaze to Kanda Osamu in horror.

His body at this time was no longer the high-dimensional existence of [Adam the Devourer], but had returned to the human form that he hated.

"what did you do to me?!"

The anger caused Akihiro Kurata to ask questions almost out of control, and with a blank mind, he rushed directly towards Kanda Osamu.

however……

"I'm sorry, but this is how you should be."

Kanda Osamu did not dodge when facing the out-of-control Kurata Akihiro. Just when the opponent was about to reach him, he swung out with his right fist, venting out the emotions that had been accumulating in his heart.
