A different kind of digital world adventure

"Then let's follow the path that BlackGatomon is taking."

Since we don't know where the water is, we might as well just choose a direction and keep going.

“No problem.” Agumon followed closely behind Taichi, and BlackGatomon, seeing this, stopped thinking about running away and followed Taichi dejectedly.

It seems that BlackGatomon is quite lucky. Although they just randomly chose a direction, Tai and the others only walked for two or three hours before they saw a small river.

The group walked along the river until they reached the edge of a huge lake, where Taiyi and the others stopped.

"This lake is quite large; we probably won't be able to cross it today."

Taiyi looked up at the sky.

"It's getting late. Let's find a place to rest tonight, and build a raft at dawn tomorrow to row directly to the other side."

BlackGatomon and Agumon had no objection to Tai's suggestion, so everyone found a relatively flat spot on the shore and then got busy setting up a simple campsite.

"It's done."

Taichi handed the grilled fish he had cooked to Agumon and BlackGatomon.

"Here, try it and see how it is. If it's too bland, I'll add some more salt."

"Awooo!" Agumon eagerly opened its mouth and took a big bite. After chewing for a moment, Agumon's eyes lit up.

"Delicious!"

Agumon then began to wolf down its food.

"Eat slowly, eat slowly, there's more if you're not full."

Taichi chuckled as he looked at Agumon, then glanced at BlackGatomon, who was staring intently at Agumon while holding a grilled fish.

"BlackGatomon, aren't you going to eat? Don't you like grilled fish?"

"Uh, no." BlackGatomon, regaining its senses, quickly took a bite.

Is it really that delicious? I'm probably just trying to please this kid...

BlackGatomon muttered to itself as it chewed on the fish, then suddenly seemed frozen in place, its eyes flashing brightly after a moment.

The crispy fish skin conceals snow-white, tender fish meat. The charred aroma of charcoal grilling locks in the fish's oils, and each chew bursts in your mouth with a delightful sensation. The layers of flesh unfold like garlic cloves, providing a thorough massage and relaxation to BlackGatomon's entire oral cavity...

It really is...incredibly delicious.

Watching BlackGreymon devour his food, Taichi chuckled and picked up a grilled fish to enjoy as well. He continued grilling the fish, sprinkling it with salt and other seasonings he had brought from Kari's house.

After Taichi finished eating the fish, he handed it to them separately.

"Try this again."

BlackGatomon took the grilled fish and, without much hesitation, popped it into its mouth.

Why does this fish taste so much better than the last one?

Seeing the surprised look on BlackGatomon's face, Taichi smiled and explained,

“I noticed you were liking the fish belly and other parts with stronger flavors, so I guessed you might have felt the flavor was a bit bland. That’s why I added a little more seasoning to the fish I gave you.”

""

BlackGatomon seemed somewhat dazed upon hearing Tai's reply.

Taiichi noticed a detail that even he himself hadn't noticed, and BlackGatomon suddenly felt a tremor in his heart.

It seems that following Taiyi isn't such a terrible thing?

The thought suddenly popped into BlackGatomon's mind, but it was quickly startled and shook its head violently.

No, that's impossible! This brat is just trying to lull me into a false sense of security. I can't let my guard down, or he'll turn me into a slave for all eternity!

Taiichi watched BlackGatomon's changing expressions with a hint of helplessness. How could this cat have so many stories in its mind? Are all Demon-type Digimon this imaginative?

He didn't really intend to please BlackGatomon. His actions just now were quite normal for Taiichi. Taiichi has always been good at observing and taking care of others, especially when cooking. He can keenly perceive the taste desires of each diner that he himself is unaware of.

It's just that Taiyi's ambitions don't lie in cooking, otherwise he could have awakened something like a substitute.

However, this unintentional act was quite lethal to those who encountered it for the first time, especially since BlackGatomon had previously lived in the Dark Zone, a place known for its outstanding people and resources. This was as if it had created a special attack on BlackGatomon.

As a result, although BlackGatomon is still very wary of Tai, it is now more willing to take the initiative to communicate with him.

"When we first arrived, the pyramids had already completely disappeared." Taiichi looked at Agumon. "I wonder if Taiichi and the others managed to escape safely."

"They should be fine. After all, that's Taiichi." Agumon said nonchalantly. "They'll definitely be alright."

"What kind of reason is that?" Taiyi shook his head speechlessly, but he was also inclined to believe that Taiyi and the others were probably alright. "Speaking of which, I wonder if that guy Molecular Beast listened to my advice and went to look for his memories."

“It doesn’t have anything else to do,” Agumon thought for a moment and then said. “Its enemy, Etemon, is dead. Besides searching for its memories, it probably doesn’t have anything else it wants to do, right?”

"Besides, it's not impossible that we might run into it somewhere else later," Agumon added. "If we do run into it, we can just ask about Molecularmon's current situation, right?"

“That makes sense.” Taiyi stopped worrying. Since they had already separated, no one knew if they would ever see each other again. Instead of thinking about these things, he decided to continue on his own path and leave everything to fate.

When fate brings them together, they will naturally meet again.

So Taichi stopped talking about Molemon and started thinking about analyzing Sora with Agumon. But before he could speak, BlackGatomon, who had been listening silently, suddenly spoke up.

"Could you tell me more about that molecular beast?"

"Huh?" Tai looked at BlackGatomon with some surprise. He hadn't expected BlackGatomon to take the initiative to talk to him. He didn't refuse, and after gathering his thoughts, he began to speak.

"Actually, it's nothing much, it just started after I first appeared in the Digital World..."

BlackGatomon listened intently to Tai's description, then remained silent for a moment before asking a question in a somewhat complicated tone.

"It sounds like you support revenge?"

"Of course I support it! How could I not support it?" Taiyi said casually. "If someone hits you for no reason, you have to fight back. Otherwise, are you just going to swallow your anger?"

"But...don't you know that revenge might disrupt the world's order?" BlackGatomon couldn't help but say. "The most important thing to ensure for order is stability. If you really let your temper dictate your actions and take revenge at will, the entire world's order will be completely thrown into chaos."

"Therefore, for the sake of world peace, revenge is something that can never be supported by anyone."

"Or are you saying you support utter chaos?"

"To clarify, I said I support the Molecular Beast's revenge, not that I support revenge itself."

Seeing the confused look on BlackGatomon's face, Taichi continued to explain.

"Order is certainly good, but it is not static. You must understand that the purpose of establishing order is to enable everyone to live better lives. If only some people benefit while others live worse lives, then it can only be said that the order is not good enough and needs to be corrected."

Taiichi said seriously,

"Back to the matter of revenge, if there were something that could punish Etemon, I certainly wouldn't support Molecularmon's revenge. But since such a thing doesn't exist right now, Molecularmon's revenge has a very high degree of justice, and I shouldn't stop it."

"That sounds nice." Even BlackGatomon didn't realize that his voice had turned somewhat cold.

"That's only because it's none of your business. If your sister is the core of a world, and saving her would require destroying the entire world, and saving the world would require killing your sister, what would you do in that situation?"

The words had barely left its mouth when BlackGatomon regretted them. It was currently Tai's prisoner; if it truly humiliated him, what if Tai became enraged and killed it...?

It didn't know what was wrong with it, but after hearing Taiichi say those words, an inexplicable anger rose in its heart, and it really wanted to mock Taiichi.

But before BlackGatomon could figure out how to avoid disaster, it heard Taiichi say decisively from the other side.

"Of course I'll choose to save my sister, and I'll save the world too!"

"You make it sound so easy." Hearing Taiichi say that, BlackGatomon somehow got agitated again. "How much power do you think you have to do something like this?"

"Leaving aside how much power I have, I only know that a world that needs to kill little girls to exist is definitely not normal. It is an extremely twisted world, a world that is wrong from the root, and a world that must be corrected!"

"If that's really the case, then I will use my fists to completely correct the mistakes of that world!"

Taichi held out his fist for BlackGatomon to see.

"When order can no longer uphold justice, the fists in our hands are the only tool that can defend justice."

""

BlackGatomon looked somewhat dazed. Tai's voice wasn't loud, but it still had a resounding impact on BlackGatomon's ears.

It shook its head, looking at Taiyi with a complicated expression.

"Why aren't you confused at all?"

To say that Taiichi convinced BlackGatomon is pure nonsense, but BlackGatomon could sense the unwavering determination in Taiichi's words. If the situation BlackGatomon described really occurred, Taiichi would probably do exactly as he said.

This unwavering determination, devoid of any doubt, greatly shocked BlackGatomon, making it eager to know why Taichi was so resolute.

“I don’t understand all those grand theories.” Taiyi shrugged. “I just think that a world that needs to kill an innocent person to exist is fundamentally flawed.”

"The world is not that fragile; it won't be destroyed just because someone dies."

"Those who bear the weight of the world are not at fault. If they are, it is the fault of us who never thought of changing the world."

""

BlackGatomon's expression changed several times. After a while, it dropped the grilled fish, turned its back to Taichi, and lay down.

"I'm full, I need to rest for a while."

Taiichi, seeing this, didn't mind. He had no intention of continuing the conversation. Taiichi looked at the moonlight and said to Agumon,

"It's getting late, let's rest too."

"Let's continue our journey tomorrow."

"it is good."

After listening to the witty remarks for a while, Agumon, who was already dizzy, immediately nodded, then lay down without hesitation and fell fast asleep after half a second without understanding.

Seeing Agumon like this, Taichi sighed helplessly, added some firewood to the campfire, and then lay down to rest as well.

After an unknown amount of time, around midnight, the three of them got up almost simultaneously.

"What's going on outside?"

Taiyi and the others stared intently at the dark bushes ahead. They felt the ground trembling slightly, and as time passed, the tremors grew stronger and more pronounced...

coming!

boom!

Suddenly, a huge black shadow sprang out from outside the bushes, and after a hiss, it immediately launched a full-force attack on Taiyi and the others!

Long-toothed Assault!

Chapter 17 Vampire Beast: Danger!

The enormous figure charged forward with incredible speed, but Taiyi and the others were prepared. With a leap to the left or right, they successfully dodged the attack.

Only then did Taiyi see the attacker's appearance clearly. To put it simply, it was a huge woolly mammoth, except that its head and nose were covered by a thick silver mask with an eye pattern drawn on it. Just one glance gave people a chilling feeling of seeing through it.

[Mammoth Beast, Ultimate Level]

In addition, Taiyi also saw two other figures on the top of the mammoth's head. They jumped off the mammoth's body at this moment and disappeared in the blink of an eye, seemingly preparing to ambush from the shadows.

However, this will not affect the final result.

Taijiu Lingliu remained silent, only charging forward relentlessly.

"Agumon!"

"Agumon evolves into Greymon!"

Greymon charged forward and collided with Mammothmon, beginning a struggle. At first, Mammothmon was able to suppress it with its momentum, but as its speed decreased, Greymon began to exert force, and Mammothmon immediately became unable to move, as if it had hit a wall. Then, Greymon flipped it outwards, and it fell directly to the ground, unable to get up again.

Mammoth struggled fiercely. Although it was not as strong as Tyrannosaurus and was unable to get up, it still had a powerful trunk to attack. Mammoth immediately manipulated its trunk to go behind Tyrannosaurus and began to accumulate freezing air to give Tyrannosaurus a hard blow!

Taste this extreme cold from ancient times!

Tundra Breath!

click!

Just a second before the breath was about to be released, Taiyi appeared out of nowhere and descended from the sky, firmly stepping on the mammoth's big nose. With the passage blocked, the mammoth could not release its breath smoothly, but at this moment, it had no choice but to release the breath... So after a few seconds, the mammoth, unable to control its breath, was forced to reverse its breath, and the cold jet of air directly froze the mammoth's big head.

Then, a super flame from Tyrannomon caused Mammothmon's head to explode due to thermal expansion and contraction, turning it into data and returning to the world.

Within half a minute of its appearance, Mammothmon was easily defeated by Greymon and Taichi working together.

It didn't even cause Taiyi any trouble.

"Where did this guy come from? Why did he suddenly attack us?"

"I don't know." Greymon transformed back into Agumon, then shook its head, looking completely bewildered. "I don't know what's going on. Let's ask someone."
