Chapter 271 Battle in the Dense Forest
"Oh no, King Vampire Beast!"
In the Dark City, the little devilmon flew into the room in a bit of a panic.
As soon as they entered, they were blasted out by an unknown force and rolled on the ground.
"Da, da..."
In the dimly lit room, a handsome young man dressed in a black robe emerged. He wore a red eye patch and looked at the little devil beast on the ground with some displeasure.
"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered in front of me?"
"I'm so sorry, Vampire Beast King, the matter is extremely important, that's why I..."
"Enough with the nonsense, just tell me what happened."
"Yes, I received news from the Digimon being stalked on the Suna Continent. They discovered that the army belonging to Etemon is gathering in the area facing our island, looking like they are preparing to attack."
Little Devimon quickly reported the latest information it had received.
"Um?"
The vampire beast frowned.
"Have you figured out what Wukong Beast is planning to do with his army?"
he asks.
"What else could it be? Myotismon, that guy Etemon keeps calling himself the King of the Digimon. He's definitely mobilizing his army to attack us and challenge Your Majesty."
Myotismon: "..."
As Digimon Kings under the same Dark Masters, his relationship with Etemon is not exactly friendly.
However, since their territories are separated by a strait, they usually keep to themselves and don't interfere with each other.
However, what Little Devimon said might not be impossible; it is extremely difficult for a Perfect level to evolve into an Ultimate level.
It's not impossible that the toy monkey might be after his data and have assembled an army to launch a surprise attack.
As for why, it's because he himself had once thought about killing other Ultimate-level Digimon and devouring their data.
However, the risks were too great, and with the Dark Masters watching from above, revealing too much ambition would only bring about its own destruction. Therefore, Myotismon abandoned this dangerous idea.
Myotismon has no hope of evolving into its ultimate form in the Digital World, but it is researching how to travel to the real world.
Far away.
Although there is no evidence for Devimon's deduction, there are some things that must be guarded against.
If Wukong Beast's army is indeed assembled to attack him, he will definitely suffer a great loss if he is caught off guard.
"Devimon".
"Here I am, King Vampire Beast."
"Investigate thoroughly why Wukong Beast has assembled an army."
"Yes."
"Spider Beast".
"Vampire Beast King, did you call me?"
A furry spider with a huge skull pattern on its back slid down from the spiral rooftop and knelt before the vampire beast, awaiting its command.
"Be prepared to mobilize our troops and tell them to be ready to fight at any time."
"Yes, King Vampire Beast."
"If there are any other unusual movements from Wukong Beast, report back to me."
. . . .
Just as Wukong Beast's mobilization of troops aroused the vigilance of Vampire Beast, a black cable silently extended into the depths of the dense forest to the east, like a snake.
The moving black cable seemed to be searching for something, until it passed by the convenience store guarded by the Wolverine, where it quickly slipped inside and connected to the telephone.
"Ring ring~"
The phone rang, but no one answered; it just kept ringing.
It rang for a long time before being noticed by the robot that came back to the convenience store that night.
Why is the phone ringing?
Wolverine found it strange, but still went over and picked up the phone receiver.
"Moshi moshi..."
"I'm looking for your Gluttonous Beast King."
As soon as the microphone was answered, a mechanical voice came through.
"Who are you, and why are you looking for our king?"
"Who I am is not important. What is important is that Wukong Beast, at the instigation of Giant Chicken Beast, has already mobilized his army to prepare to attack your dense forest."
"What?"
"I can't speak to you, please help me contact your king."
As a Champion-level Digimon, Gokumon knew about Etemon and understood the seriousness of the matter. Although it didn't know why Etemon was gathering an army to attack the dense forest, it immediately went to the orchard manor and found Broly.
Upon learning that a phone call about Gokumon had suddenly come in from the convenience store, Broly and Gomomon went to the convenience store together.
"Who are you, and how do you know about this?"
Upon arriving at the convenience store, Broly didn't speak first, but watched as the little dog answered the phone.
"So you're the Gluttonous Beast?"
The mechanical voice from the microphone.
"I am not a Gluttonous Beast, but I am the Gluttonous Beast's most important partner."
The puppy answered.
"I only talk to Gluttony."
"What the little dog means is what I mean."
"Are you a glutton?"
"I am Broly, but my friends in the forest call me Gluttony."
"Wukong Beast is mobilizing his army to attack you."
"We already know about this; King Kong told us about it when he came to us."
"I can help you."
Molecular Beast Theory.
"Who are you, and why are you helping us?"
Broly moved away from the microphone, letting the little dog ask the question himself.
"Who I am is not important. All you need to know is that I and Gokumon are enemies."
Molecular Beast did not intend to reveal its identity, as it would be bad if Wukong Beast found out that it had regained some of its memories.
"A guy who hides his identity isn't trustworthy. If you don't clearly state your identity, I'm hanging up."
However, Puppymon wouldn't tolerate such a guy, and it was expected that the Digimon King behind Chickenmon might come looking for trouble.
"Alright, but if you want to know my true identity, you must answer one question for me."
"you say."
"Question for you, Gluttonymon: Do you possess the strength to rival Gokumon?"
Molecular Beast asked the question on the other end of the phone.
Upon hearing this, Gokumon looked at the boy, and Broly, with the information that he was far ahead, replied, "I don't know Gokumon's strength, but I'm certain that my strength is definitely above his."
"That's right, Abu is the strongest. No Digimon can defeat him."
The little dog nodded and spoke into the phone.
"The Gluttonous Beast King, strong and invincible!"
Even the Vajra Beast standing nearby was there as a witness.
Molecular Beast: "..."
Is his strength above that of Gokumon?
That's really bold of them!
However, having this confidence suggests that the other party must also be in its complete form.
Hmm, it's worth taking the gamble.
The molecular beast looked at the sealing barrier that trapped it and came to this conclusion.
"In that case, I can tell you my true identity. I am Molemon, a Digimon that was once attacked by Etemon..."
"The Monkey Beast shattered my body, causing me to lose many memories. It sealed my broken self in the inverted pyramid's mainframe, making me serve as its network management system..."
Molecularmon reveals its grudge against Etemon, but in describing the grudge, it sides with itself, portraying itself as a more innocent Digimon.
"The reason I've come to you is because I don't want to see Etemon continue to persecute other Digimon. Hmm, can I place my hopes for defeating Etemon on you?"
The little dog hesitated and looked at Broly.
Broly picked up the little beast and whispered in its ear.
"I've said it before, I'll help you if you need it, so do whatever you want to do."
The puppy beast nodded and said to the molecular beast, "I don't know if I can defeat Wukongmon, but I will definitely stop Wukongmon's attack."
Molemon's secret communication alerted Puppymon and Broly in the forest, and upon learning of this, other Digimon immediately expressed their willingness to join Puppymon in protecting their home and participating in the upcoming battle.
. . . .
"So, they've mobilized troops just to launch an attack on another Digimon King's faction. But what's Gluttonmon? I've never heard of it before."
Fairymon investigated and found out why Gokumon had mobilized the army. After learning that it had nothing to do with the eighth Chosen Child, he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, its curious nature prevented Fairymon from retreating immediately. Instead, it hid in the Digimon army that Etemon had gathered and followed them all the way to the front of the eastern forest.
"Listen up, you creatures in the dense forest! You injured my subordinate, the Giant Chicken Beast. Come out now and apologize to him, and I will forgive and forget your past actions of harming him and humiliating me!"
Wukong arrived at the edge of the forest in his mobile truck, but he did not immediately send his army to attack into the forest.
Instead, the first thing it set up was the car stereo speaker. When its henchman, Gazumon, asked why, Gokumon gave a strange answer that Digimon couldn't quite understand: "Courtesy first, then force."
"So, King Wukong, if those guys in the dense forest really come out and apologize, are we really going to let them off the hook like this?"
The giant chicken was a little confused. Why make such a big commotion and gather so many Digimon? Was it really just Etemon King trying to vent his anger?
"Let them go, of course. As long as the Ultimate-level Digimon in the forest is willing to acknowledge that I, Etemon, am the only Digimon King of the Suna Continent, and bring my forest forces to submit to and join my ranks, then I can let them go."
Wukong Beast likes to sing, but he's not stupid. Now that he's mobilized all his troops, he's definitely going to fight to the death with the Gluttonous Beast King in the forest, or at least decide who's the stronger.
The only Digimon King on the Sunu Continent—such a reputation isn't entirely undeserved; part of it was earned by Etemon.
"We attacked the Giant Chicken Beast because it attacked the Nume Beast's village, so you're the ones who should apologize."
In response to Etemon's loudspeaker, the forest quickly gave a reply: the wrong Digimon was Chickenmon, not Numemon, and Puppymon refused to give in.
"You ungrateful wretch! The entire army is at your command! Attack!"
The Monkey Beast was a little annoyed and picked up the microphone to give orders.
"Roar~"
With a roar, the Horned Dragon and the Giant Dragon, as the mature elite forces in the Wukong Beast Legion, were the first to charge towards the dense forest.
Following behind them was the Gazhimon Legion, the main fighting force in their growth stage, which also included one or two Fangmon that had evolved into mature stage.
Rather than engaging in frontal attacks, these fanged beasts are better suited to being assassins, specializing in sneak attacks from behind.
. . . .
"Fight back!"
These days, at the suggestion of the molecular beast, the people in the dense forest have also made preparations.
Broly stayed behind to oversee the rear, while Puppymon, as the frontline commander, directed the Champion-level Digimon in the dense forest to counterattack the invading Digimon army.
There is a saying that goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated." While only using the combat power of Rookie and Champion Digimon, Puppymon's side had already set up many traps in the dense forest because of the traitor Moleculemon, who knew the information of the opposing Digimon.
Even though the number of mature and rookie Digimon in the dense forest was not as many as the intruders, the numerous traps set up in advance dealt a heavy blow to the first enemy to break in.
"Big silly dragon, I'm here."
Palmon's evolved form, Totodactylmon, attracted the attention of a Giantdramon. After luring the creature to the vicinity of a trap, Totodactylmon ducked down and hid in the bushes.
Come and chase me!
The evolved form of Floramon, Totodactylmon, appeared on the other side. The indistinguishable Giramon roared and chased after Totodactylmon on the other side.
This was exactly what the Jungle Digimon wanted. As the ground beneath its feet suddenly collapsed, the big guy fell into the mud pit that had been dug out.
"Quickly, smash the rocks!"
Snotmon and some baby Digimon stood up from the tree and started throwing the sharp stones they had prepared at the giant dragonmon in the pit.
"Roar~"
The giant dragon was in pain from being hit and tried to climb out of the pit, but the pit was too deep and it was impossible to climb out.
Flames spewed from its mouth, but due to the angle, they couldn't reach the Numemon and the others on the tree. On one side were a group of disgraceful adult-level Digimon and baby-level Digimon, and on the other side were adult-level Digimon with astonishing combat power.
Despite this disparity, after falling into a pre-arranged trap, GiantDragon was still brutally killed by a group of weaker Digimon by being smashed to death with stones.
Data floated out of the pit, and a group of snotmon and baby Digimon cheered immediately.
"Don't be too happy yet, there are still Champion-level Digimon invading other places that haven't been dealt with yet."
That's what they say, but dense forests are perfect for guerrilla warfare.
The simple tactic of separating the intruding enemy Digimon was easily used to isolate them.
They might use traps or take advantage of their familiarity with the terrain.
Establish a favorable situation with superior numbers and eliminate the invading Champion-level Digimon one by one.
"Fox Spirit Flame!"
The wild Garurumon from the Forest faction spewed blue flames, hitting a Fangmon and turning it into data. Ignoring the terrified Garashimon around it, it rushed to another battlefield to help the Champion-level Digimon under Gluttonymon, also from the Forest faction, deal with the invading Champion-level Digimon.
"Bang bang bang..."
Since the start of the war, explosions have been heard constantly in the dense forest.
Not long after, a group of Gazhi beasts fled in a sorry state.
"Great King Wukong, those guys in the dense forest are really too cunning; they've set up countless traps..."
Jiazhi Beast reported on the battle situation in the dense forest, which made Wukong Beast's face darken. It was clear that its side had stronger troops, but the actual fighting was not like that at all.
This is the importance of tactical command. In large-scale battles, having command and not having command are two different things.
Clearly, Wukong Beast's side lacked any real command. Although they were a strong and well-equipped force, they were a disorganized mob and collapsed immediately when faced with the well-organized forest team.
"What a useless bunch of bastards! Jiazhi, have you even laid the black cables yet?"
"Great King Wukong, we've made the arrangements."
The beast quickly answered.
"However, only the front half of the area was decorated."
The other Gazhi beast shrank its neck and said.
"That's enough. Let those useless trash inside get out. I, the Great King, will take action myself."
