Takuya Kanbara has decided to stop being human.

The giant beetle, resembling a tank, blasted the two shadows into pieces in an instant, but the next moment, the pieces reassembled and transformed into a rhinoceros beetle (shadow).

The two sides were evenly matched again. The two rhinoceros beetles kept firing electromagnetic cannons at each other, and lightning flashed in the battle space. However, even if the battle space was destroyed, the two sides were still evenly matched.

The Steel Warrior's voice came again: "What a pity. To defeat him, you need to continue evolving. So evolve, Super Soul Evolution."

The rhinoceros beetle remained silent and continued its attack with its head down.

As Kinkame Jiro once said, a man should attack silently!

"Don't you know how to do Super Soul Evolution? Don't you have the Super Evolution components?" the Steel Warrior asked suspiciously. "They all have Super Soul Evolution, but you don't. Why is that? There's only one answer—"

“Poor Lightning Warrior, you have been excluded by them.”

"Shut up!" the Rhinoceros Beetle roared, its lightning, amplified by its rage, overpowering the shadow's lightning and shattering it into pieces.

This time, the Steel Warrior didn't waste energy repairing the shadow, because he had already realized Shibayama Junpei's weakness.

"Actually, our fight is meaningless."

There are a thousand needles hidden behind every word!

The power of a fist can only strike the body, but the power of words can strike the heart.

The Steel Warrior, who loved to manipulate people's hearts, slowly said, "You and I both know that the real battle will be in the fifth match. All the battles before that are just formalities, especially this one. Whether you win or lose, the fifth battle will come as scheduled. So your victory or defeat is meaningless, your efforts are meaningless, and everything you are doing now is meaningless!"

The biggest blow is having your efforts denied.

The results you've worked so hard to achieve are dismissed with a single sentence like "It's just...", "It's nothing...", or "It's meaningless." That kind of blow is like being pushed off a towering building.

"Whether for myself or for the sake of my trusted partners, I will defeat you!"

Shibayama Junpei roared, trying to bolster his own morale.

The Steel Warrior scoffed, "Trust? Hahaha, you seem to have misunderstood. If they trusted you, why are you the only one who can't evolve into a Super Soul? They're clearly discriminating against you!"

Each word was like a sharp sword, piercing Shibayama Junpei's heart and leaving it riddled with holes.

"Shibayama Junpei! Stop fooling yourself. You are not the savior. Take a good look at yourself. You are just a clown in the savior's team. Your existence is only to highlight their glory and greatness! They look down on you. While you are fighting here, what are they doing?"

The Steel Warriors released footage of the people chatting on the Wandering Island. In the footage, everyone was laughing and talking, and no one cared about Shibayama Junpei, who was fighting hard.

"I……"

Shibayama Junpei felt as if his heart was being torn apart, recalling the times he was needed by his classmates at school and the times he spent with his companions now.

"No! You're wrong!"

After a long silence, Shibayama Junpei suddenly burst out, "Perhaps the fifth match is the key, but my battle is by no means meaningless. This is my battle as Shibayama Junpei, and it is by no means meaningless! I believe in myself, and I believe in my comrades!"

The Steel Warrior sneered with a look of utter disappointment: "Still believing? You're too naive. They've already betrayed you."

"So what? I believe them, and it has nothing to do with them not believing me, betraying me, or treating me like a clown. I decide my own affairs. Even if they betray me, they are the ones who become despicable, not me! I believe them because I want to believe them."

The Rhinoceros Beetle's aura surged, and it hysterically shouted out its innermost thoughts. Countless bolts of lightning flashed across its body, and terrifying energy powerful enough to destroy the earth gathered on its horns.

"I am the savior! As Shibayama Junpei, as the Warrior of Lightning, I will defeat you!"

The lightning energy instantly reached its threshold, poised to strike—

Chapter 106, Heaven-Sent Martial Skills vs. Hundred-Refined Martial Skills

"What a strong energy!"

Steel Warrior was secretly alarmed. The lightning energy on Rhinoceros Beetle Beast was so solid that it was probably close to a semi-solid state. Even if it could be deflected, once it exploded, it would cause irreversible damage to Magma Beast no matter where it was.

"However, a true sage will not leave danger within his body."

The Steel Warrior controlled the body of the Demon Bullet Beast and spat out the Rhinoceros Beetle Beast.

Rhinoceros Beetle returned to the Mirror World, and Steel Warrior immediately reverted to his Mirrormon form.

"Continue charging!"

The lightning energy had clearly reached the critical value for emission, yet it continued to release energy. The electron content in the atmosphere rose sharply, and lightning flashed and thunder roared among the dark clouds in the sky. The atmosphere in the entire Dark Continent of the Mirror World became increasingly oppressive, making it hard to breathe.

"True wisdom lies in never confronting danger directly."

The Mirror Beast floated up calmly and whispered, "The Curse of Knowledge."

A faint green light emanated from the mirror on his face and shone directly onto the head of the rhinoceros-armored unicorn beetle. Under the illumination of the lightning, no one noticed the faint green light at all.

Buzz—!

Something seemed to have changed dramatically. The lightning and thunder in the sky gradually subsided, and the electric current on the rhinoceros-armored beetle spread in all directions through the ground, disappearing without a trace.

The Thunder Warrior, evolved from the dual souls, stood motionless in place like a giant statue.

After a while, the Thunder Warrior degenerated into Shibayama Junpei and collapsed to the ground unconscious.

"What...is going on?"

No one, including the Light Beast, could understand this strange change.

Finally, Molecularmon figured out the reason: "I understand, it's information! Digimon's brains have a limit to how fast they can process information. When too much information floods into the brain, it causes a phenomenon similar to a computer freezing up."

In the movie "Our War Game", Diablomon was sent a large number of emails from all over the world by Koushiro at the last moment, causing his brain to freeze and his actions to be hindered. Omegamon then took the opportunity to kill him with a single sword strike.

The same thing happened to the rhinoceros beetle.

If it were a pure Digimon, it would get stuck until all the information was processed. However, the Knowledge Curse of the Mirrormon would inject all information, from particle collisions to celestial movements, into the enemy's brain in an instant. Not only would it get stuck, but it could even die directly due to data collapse.

Fortunately, the Thunder Warrior is both a Digimon and a human.

The human brain's self-protection mechanism kicks in at this point, and the result is... coma, which serves to resist the intrusion of external information until the brain recovers.

"If the goddess of victory smiled upon you because of a few kind words, then there would be no such thing as defeat in this world."

The Mirror Beast looked down at the unconscious Shibayama Junpei and murmured, "Success is reserved for those who are prepared, and for me, I'm only two days away from being fully prepared."

After saying that, he raised one hand, and a beam of green light gathered at his fingertips, shooting straight towards Shibayama Junpei.

This is to nip it in the bud!

In the blink of an eye, a figure blocked the green beam of light; it was none other than Seraphimon.

He held Shibayama Junpei in his arms and questioned the Mirror Beast: "Junpei has lost consciousness. You've already won. Why did you have to kill him all?"

Seeing that Seraphimon was there, Magic Mirror Beast knew that it could not kill Shibayama Junpei, so it pretended not to know and said, "Oh? So he lost consciousness. I thought he was preparing for a new evolution, so he wanted to strike first."

After saying that, it flew back to Lucemon's side, not giving Seraphimon a chance to refute.

UltimateAngemon had no choice but to carry Junpei Shibayama back to Wandering Island.

Everyone quickly gathered around and, after checking him over, found that Shibayama Junpei was not seriously injured; he had fainted because he had overworked his brain.

"It seems that Molecular Beast was right. Chunping is fine. He'll be alright after resting for a while."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, a loud voice rang out from afar: "The final battle, please welcome Lord Lucemon!"

The Light Beast calmly stood up, floated up from its seat, gave Kanbara Takuya a provocative look, and then flew towards the battlefield.

"Takuya, be careful," Angewomon said worriedly.

After all, the enemy is the Light Beast, a terrifying being that required ten warriors to seal in ancient times!

Takuya Kambara gave her a reassuring look, then walked over to Kouji Minamoto and whispered, "You need to be ready at any time."

Yuan Hui was taken aback, then seemed to understand something and nodded.

"Armed...Evolution!"

Takuya Kambara inserted the Armored Digivice into his belt.

"Spirit!"

"Evolution!"

The long-absent Fire Beast reappeared, leaping directly off the Island of Wanderings and crashing to the ground like a meteorite, creating a large, cracked crater, with soil and rocks flying everywhere and dust billowing up.

With a flap of its wings, the Light Beast created a strong gust of wind that blew away the dust, revealing the Fire God Beast's form—a body with perfect proportions and long golden hair that swayed in the wind.

The two looked at each other; both had blue eyes.

Lucemon's eyes were as cold as Arctic icebergs, while Vulcanmon's eyes were as bright as the sky.

“You escaped last time, but now there’s no seal that can bind me, and you have nowhere to retreat.” The Light Beast hovered half a meter above the ground, its arms crossed.

"You've only left the Dark Zone; the seal is still there," the Fire God Beast chuckled. "Besides, I'm constantly evolving, so I don't need to regress anymore."

Lucemon's face was gloomy, while Vulcanmon stood proudly.

When two people disagree, they immediately start fighting!

The figure of Luminosaurus approached Vulcan like a ghost. As a child of God, he was born with a mysterious fighting technique called "God-given Martial Arts". Every move he made was full of gorgeous style. When he used Luminosaurus's body to perform it, his power was boundless.

Takuya Kanbara, a martial arts prodigy, joined Liangshan Marsh and learned a hundred different martial arts styles. He also mastered a hundred-fold refined martial arts technique. His moves were simple yet ever-changing. Combined with the warrior's body of the Fire God Beast, they complemented each other perfectly.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM—!

Bang bang bang bang bang bang——!

Da da da da da da—!

Two figures, one in white and one in red, clashed repeatedly, exchanging blows in close combat for ten rounds without a clear victor.

Vulcan kicked out, and Luminosaurus took the opportunity to retreat half a meter. A ball of light energy gathered in his palm and spun like a small typhoon. Vulcan's pupils shrank, and he grabbed Luminosaurus's wrist with his grappling hand and pressed it to the ground.

The ball of light exploded upon contact with the ground.

boom--!

The tiny ball of light possessed the power of a nuclear bomb, instantly scattering energy and sending dust flying hundreds of meters into the air.

In the sky, the Mirror Beast saw the fierce battle below and turned to look towards the direction of Wandering Island. Since everyone and all the beasts were paying attention to the battle below, its gaze shifted and soon it found the Earth-type Ancient Don Beast among the beast crowd.

"It's just you."

The Mirror Beast attacked.

Chapter 107, I am the Center of the World

Everyone's attention was focused on the fierce battle on the ground. The sudden attack by the Mirrormon caught everyone off guard. Grodonmon fought and retreated. Although the Mirrormon was a mage-type fighter, it was still a Digimon that evolved from two souls, and Grodonmon could not deal with it.

Only after Grodon ran to the group's side did it have a chance to catch its breath.

"Mirror Beast, you have violated the rules of the competition!"

Everyone glared angrily at the Mirror Beast.

"At this point, the rules are no longer important."

Mirrormon chuckled and snapped its fingers, and seven Mirrormon appeared around it—TreeDragonmon, Great Ice Bearmon, Medusamon, BattleRainbowmon, BlackCorpmon, MagnaGarurumon, and RhinocerosBeetlemon.

"What!?"

"That Medusamon is your ability?!" Izumi Orimoto exclaimed. She remembered the second Medusamon that appeared in her battle. She had always thought it was Medusamon's clone ability, but she never expected it to be the ability of Mirrormon.

"This is the Mirror World, and I am its sole ruler." The Mirror Beast smirked and waved its hand, commanding its other Mirror Beasts to attack. "My darlings, sink this island!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the seven mirror beasts attacked the Island of Wandering.

Everyone picked up their armed Digimon.

"Armed Evolution..."

"Giant Ice Bear Beast!"

"Battle Rainbow Beast!"

"Black Lion Beast!"

"MagnaGarurumon!"

They each faced their own mirror beast.

Shibayama Junpei is still unconscious and unable to join the battle.

On the Island of Wandering, there were also Ultimate-level monsters such as Slashmon, Ultimate Kugamon, and Griffinmon, which came into play at this time. Their power was somewhat inferior to that of the Mirror Ten Warriors, but they were still able to work together to hold off a Treedramon.

Angewomon evolves into Ophanimon and battles Medusamon.

There is also a rhinoceros beetle (Mirror) that is unstoppable.
