Chapter 305: Entering the second phase of the raid? You need to figure out who the boss is!
"An enemy hindering Project Ark?"
Realizing it was being attacked, it tried to look up but found Omegamon pressing down on its head with tremendous force. It then decisively used Absolute Cold Blast on the ground beneath it.
"Granblue Knightmon, attack!"
Omegamon froze itself, but also froze Broly inside, leaving the task of attacking the enemy to its companion beside it.
"Royal Gunfire!"
Without hesitation, Gallantmon unleashed a dazzling light from its Holy Lance Grammer, its blazing energy beam piercing the back of the enemy that had suddenly attacked Omegamon.
The boy's back was pierced, and a white beam of light shone from his chest. Just as Crimson Knightmon thought its attack had taken effect, the petite figure that had been pierced gradually disappeared.
"Afterimage?"
Crimson Knight Beast's eyes widened as it caught a glimpse of something approaching from its side.
But before he could raise his shield, the Saiyan boy struck him on the right cheek with the back of his right hand.
With a loud bang, Crimson Knightmon was sent flying.
Like cannonballs, they pierced through the buildings of the small town.
With a bang, it crashed into a thick stone wall.
His entire body sank into the stone wall before he finally stopped.
"Mr. Broly..."
WarGreymon's eyes widened. It hadn't expected that the stranger it had just met would come to its aid at this moment, and defeat two Royal Knights in a single move.
"My friend, the data is being deleted. Do you know what to do?"
Broly landed in front of the WarGreymon, whose form had changed somewhat, and asked the question.
"Were Fairymon and the others also infected with Program X?"
WarGreymon realized something and immediately asked.
Broly nodded.
The World Tree of this world wants to delete some Digimon, but that has nothing to do with him.
He wouldn't have come down at all if Belstar and the others hadn't suddenly discovered that their internal data was self-deleting after returning to the spaceship.
The entire spaceship fortress has now activated its protective barrier against the outside world, but the Belstar Beasts, who are infected with the X-program, are unable to easily remove the X-program from their bodies.
The solution for dealing with the molecular beasts was to temporarily isolate them in a data transmission room, and to fill in the gaps by injecting the same amount of data that the X program deleted from their bodies.
However, this is only a temporary solution and merely delays the process of removing the X program.
"This is terrible. Digimon infected with the X program can basically only survive on their own."
"But what if we can't make it through?"
"If you can't make it through, you'll die."
WarGreymon looked back at the ground covered with clothes, left behind by Digimon whose data had been erased.
Broly's expression was somewhat grim. At this moment, he realized that there were risks in other worlds, and that crossing over required caution.
He crouched down, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex Sword slashed over his head.
With a back kick, the Omegamon, whose body was covered in frost, was sent flying.
But the other person quickly stopped in mid-air, and apart from a clear footprint on his waist and looking somewhat disheveled, he had no other injuries.
The Gallantmon that had been knocked away returned, and apart from a fist mark on the side of its helmet, it was unharmed.
"You guys are pretty tough."
Broly was somewhat surprised.
"I thought you were dead."
He looked at Crimson Knight Beast and said.
"Be careful, this guy is extremely powerful."
Crimson Knightmon reminds its companions.
"Yes, I know."
Omegamon nodded.
Its armor, along with that of Gallantmon, is made of Chrono Digizoid.
The Time-Based Digital Alloy provides corresponding defensive capabilities based on the amount of data it contains.
Given the terrifying amount of data they possess, the Royal Knights have an astonishing level of defense. They can even withstand the ultimate attacks of some Ultimate-level Digimon, though the attackers will still leave some marks on them.
Clearly, those simple punches and kicks already surpassed the attack power of many Ultimate-level Digimon.
"Can the X program only rely on its own strength to cope? Isn't there any other way, such as making it stop?"
Broly asked WarGreymon behind him.
"I don't know, but perhaps they have a way to stop Program X. After all, Project Ark was carried out by the Royal Knights."
WarGreymon, or rather, WarGreymon X, only knows about Project Ark. As for more details, such as the operating principle of Program X, it is beyond its knowledge.
"I have only one request, and that is to stop the X program in my companion's body."
Broly reiterated his demands.
"You are strong, but the will of the World Tree is absolute. We Royal Knights are not afraid of powerful enemies."
Project Ark requires that all Digimon except those chosen to survive be eliminated.
In the eyes of Omegamon and Gallantmon, Broly's situation was not that of a chosen one, so there was no point in discussing it.
"I am not from this world; my companions and I are merely passing through."
Crimson Knightmon was stunned; it had never encountered such a situation before.
"As alien data that has invaded the world, you must be eliminated even more."
Just as it was considering whether to report it to its superiors, the Omegamon next to it spoke up, its attitude very firm.
"Since that's the case, I'll keep beating you until you change your minds."
Omegamon's words immediately extinguished Broly's idea of communicating with words, and he prepared to use force and fists to communicate.
The ground was crushed, and the shockwave exploded in front of WarGreymon X, blowing it away. The battle above had already begun.
Broly was dominating the two Royal Knights, but the Royal Knights' amazing defense allowed them to fight back.
Although their retaliation is very weak, they can only fire cold air bombs that freeze the grass or royal guns that shatter the ground.
The aftershocks of the battle quickly razed the town below to the ground. In order to avoid affecting the spaceship fortress in the sky, Broly deliberately sent the two Digimon away from the spaceship fortress.
As they fought their way through, the grasslands and plains were destroyed. However, this was not Broly's fault. After all, he didn't even use his energy blasts. It was all caused by Omegamon and Gallantmon, who were resisting him, using their own skills.
"No, the two of us are no match for him. We need to call for backup."
"This is what Crimson Knightmon said, as it was kicked down from the sky again, creating a crater on the ground."
The difference in strength was simply too great. It and Omegamon were only able to barely withstand the opponent's beatings by relying on the powerful defense provided by the Chrono Digizoid on their bodies. However, their defeat was only a matter of time.
Look at the fist marks on its shield; these were made by the opponent punching it while it was enduring the attack from Gokuraku Jodo.
"You call for backup, I'll hold him off."
Omegamon intercepted the boy who was about to use a downward strike on Gallantmon, and the WarGreymon in his hand was no longer the Greyhound Sword.
That thing had already been interrupted by Broly, but now it was using Gaia Energy Bombs and Garuru Cannons to bombard it in a crossfire, creating a spectacular scene of ice and fire.
However, this attack was useless. Broly simply erected an energy barrier, repelling all the energy attacks. They couldn't even break through his energy barrier, let alone cause him any harm.
He didn't stop Gallantmon from calling for help. Two Royal Knights were getting beaten up in front of him, so how could a group of Royal Knights change the situation of being beaten up?
As it turned out, Broly was right. The other Royal Knights, who quickly transferred over via the data space, were still beaten up.
The saying "two fists can't beat four hands" doesn't apply to Broly. As long as he's fast enough and his attack frequency is high enough, he alone is like four hands, while the twelve Royal Knights facing him are just two fists. They are beaten so badly that they have no chance to fight back. They can only withstand his Saiyan attacks by taking hits one by one with their Digizoid armor.
These royal knights are qualified to be punching bags.
However, even the best sandbag can't withstand the Saiyans' relentless attacks.
With Gallantmon's shield breaking under the strain, the Royal Knights' defeat was inevitable.
"Now tell me, can program X be turned off, or can it not be turned off?"
Shatter the golden armor that the dragon beast was so proud of, and throw it away like trash.
Broly, standing on Omegamon's head, asked the question again.
Omegamon: "..."
Do we really have to step on its head to ask it a question?
It wanted to resist, but it was powerless to do so.
Both arms were crushed, and both the Garuru Cannon and the Tyrannosaurus Sword were completely destroyed.
"Program X is manipulated by the World Tree, and we have no right to interfere."
Crimson Knightmon, its shield shattered and its spear twisted into a pretzel and lying to one side, answered.
"Grim Knightmon, do you intend to betray Yggdrasil?"
The heavily injured Magnamon questioned them, and Skullmon glared angrily at Gallantmon.
"This situation is beyond our control now. We need to contact the World Tree, don't we?"
Crimson Knightmon's question unexpectedly silenced the other Royal Knights, who seemed to tacitly agree with it.
"Where is the World Tree?"
"In the data space, I can open a channel."
Broly stopped attacking the Royal Knights and allowed Crimson Knightmon to retrieve its shattered shields scattered around it.
After piecing it together, Gallantmon was able to use the damaged version of Elysium with some difficulty. A reddish-brown beam of light shone into the sky, and a radiant spatial passage was opened.
But before Broly could fly up, a terrifying stream of data surged out from the spatial channel, falling from the sky and landing precisely on every Royal Knight Beast on the ground.
In just a moment, the Royal Knights who had been defeated by Broly were resurrected with full health from the defeat CG.
Not only was his armor restored to its original state, but it was also covered with a golden color, making it look as if it were plated with gold.
"Our Royal Knights were at their strongest when we received support from the World Tree."
"The World Tree will provide us with a continuous stream of data."
"This will restore our strength and heal our injuries."
"At the same time, our armor will become indestructible because of this support."
"You can defeat us without support, but you can never defeat us with the support of the World Tree."
"Granblue Knightmon, well done. You're the smarter one. You pretended to open a passage for this guy, but you were actually trying to bring over your master's power."
The Royal Knights, fully revived, spoke one sentence at a time.
"So, have I been tricked?"
Broly asked.
"You haven't been tricked. If you want to see the World Tree, you have to face us, the twelve royal knights who protect it. If you can defeat us, who are supported by the World Tree, you will naturally be able to see our master—the World Tree."
In their prime, the Royal Knights fight their enemies while carrying the World Tree, a powerful source of energy. There are virtually no Digimon in this world capable of defeating a Royal Knight in this state, not even the Seven Great Demon Lords of the Dark Realm, who would lead their dark forces to besiege the World Tree.
The Royal Knights, covered in various buffs, were confident they could defeat any enemy in this world.
Unfortunately, Broly is not from this world.
The boy raised his right hand, and an energy ball appeared in his hand.
The energy ball changed from light green to dark green, then from dark green to black, until it became pitch black, and was thrown towards the Royal Knights who had entered the second stage.
There was no terrifying explosion; instead, as if in a silent film, the energy sphere began to expand, easily engulfing the Royal Knights. The Royal Knights, like melting ice, were unable to recover and were simply evaporated.
And what evaporated along with them was the world behind them, this digital world, which was erased by a third in an instant.
Along with the dark realm below, the sun shone brightly at this moment, and the data that had already been deleted once was deleted again.
"Stop the X program, or I can personally delete the data in this world for you. I guarantee I'll delete it completely, leaving absolutely no trace."
Broly conjured another compressed energy blast, aimed it at the remaining ground beneath his feet, and spoke to the still-open passage in the sky.
The Digital World is roughly the size of Earth, but destroying a planet the size of Earth would be no difficult task for Broly.
Gatomon's infection with the X-program already made Broly very anxious, but the Royal Knights kept testing his patience.
Now, Broly has lost his patience. Either the World Tree will deactivate the X program, or this world will cease to exist.
He will personally delete the data from the World Tree of this world, deleting the data along with the World Tree itself.
There was no response from the other end of the passage in the sky, only a beam of colorful data shooting towards the direction he came from.
Seeing this, Broly withdrew his hand and quickly went over to check the situation.
The colored light did not fall on the spaceship fortress, but instead fell on the ground-based WarGreymon X.
"Where are Omegamon and Gallantmon?"
Upon seeing the boy who had landed in front of him, WarGreymon X asked a question.
"They wouldn't shut down the X program, so I took care of it."
Broly answered honestly.
"Is that so...?"
WarGreymon X's gaze was somewhat complicated.
What does "World Tree" mean?
Broly pointed to the colorful light on its body and asked.
"The World Tree wants me to resolve this cataclysmic crisis. If I succeed, I will become a new Royal Knight."
"So how do you plan to resolve this?"
"I don't want to become a Royal Knight, but I also don't want to see the world destroyed, so..."
WarGreymon X plunged its claw into its own chest and pulled out a ball of light data.
"This is the X antibody. Give this to your companions to absorb, and they will be fine."
WarGreymon X knelt down; this was the message Yggdrasil had given it.
"Then what are you going to do?"
Broly took the X-antibody from WarGreymon X, frowned, and asked a question.
"Me? I've already saved the world, that's enough."
WarGreymon X collapsed completely, and the X-Program rapidly disintegrated its body, but some of its data seemed to be taken away by the Yggdrasil's colorful light.
Broly was not in a good mood; the death of WarGreymon X had affected him.
But now was not the time to think about it. Broly quickly returned to the spaceship fortress with the X-antibody and handed it over to the Molecular Beast.
After testing and confirming that the data wasn't bad, it was injected into Belstarmon, Lilimon, and Fairymon.
After the X antibody was introduced, the self-deletion process of their body data stopped, but the X antibody changed their external appearance.
Belstarmon transformed into Belstarmon X, its dual pistols became a combination of a shotgun and a rifle, and jet-black wings appeared on its back.
"I seem to have become stronger."
This is the answer Belstar Beast X gave when Broly asked it how it felt after waking up.
