Since he'd already settled on the plan—raise a proxy, grab the loot, and bail—Narumi Akira moved immediately.
First, he consolidated his existing front lines. Using the Angel Zone—a fortressland that was easy to defend and hard to take—as the core, he treated the Code Crown as a power source and fused the Digital Zones he already effectively controlled into a single contiguous whole.
That became the Wild Hunt's core territory.
Next, he exploited the Code Crown's utterly unreasonable data-storage function to resurrect every Zone Guardian who had died in battle, absorb them into the Wild Hunt, and appoint them as legion commanders.
His distribution was clean and simple:
He split the army into sea, land, and air.
The navy went to Neptunemon of the Island Zone.
The ground forces went to Grademon of the Swordsman Zone.
The air force went to KeyAngemon of the Angel Zone.
Beyond the three branches, he also created a heavy-firepower unit and a logistics corps, handing them respectively to Battleshipdramon of Howling Forest and Spadamon of the Dessert Zone.
It was a pity Akira still hadn't figured out methods beyond "modified evolution." Otherwise, he would've loved to force his Gearmon and Solarmon to evolve into Locomon and Zeppmon—boosting transport and territorial control, finally realizing his dream of an industrial empire.
Even without that dream fulfilled, he still leaned on his experience with modified evolution and outfitted the Wild Hunt with hundreds of Jazamon as a special forces detachment—just in case.
After all that force restructuring was complete, Negamon also—per Akira's request—produced a Digivice made specifically for him.
"So this is the Darkness Xros Loader?" Akira asked.
"The essence of DigiXros is two Digimon with synchronized hearts becoming one—achieving a 1 + 1 > 2 outcome." He weighed the black Digivice in his hand and sighed. "So the principle behind forced DigiXros is exactly what I thought, huh? Using dark power to forcibly unify their wills."
Yes. Negamon's voice carried directly into his mind. The construction difficulty isn't high. It only requires some dark power to enable the forced fusion function.
"Some dark power?" Akira latched onto the keyword and groaned. "That 'some' is enough to push Lucemon's dark evolution into Satan Mode, okay?!"
"Sure, this 'Lucifer' can't compare to the Big Demon King from the 'scam-park' timeline, but still—if it's not Ultra-level data, it's at least Ultimate, right?"
It isn't that much. Negamon replied. After the collapse of this world's order, the entire power system degraded severely. It can't even support new Ultra-level entities.
Among Digimon who still remember "evolution," only Bagramon can even touch the threshold of Ultra.
"That's… fair." Akira nodded.
"If the power system hadn't degraded this badly, I wouldn't have been able to defeat Neptunemon and Grademon without exposing your true body." He agreed wholeheartedly. "In a normal world, those two are at least top-tier Ultimate and front-line Mega."
Then Akira rolled the black Digivice between his fingers and asked, "Speaking of which… how much did you expand its storage?"
With limited materials, I could only increase its capacity to 1 EB.
"1 EB?!" Akira froze, then blurted, "That can store my entire Wild Hunt, can't it?!"
To be precise, storing ten Wild Hunts would not be a problem.
"So strong. Too strong!" Akira gave Negamon a thumbs-up without thinking. "That's my partner!"
Then he grinned and added, "Since it's that spacious, it shouldn't be cramped for you to live inside either, right?"
…
Negamon was silent for a long time—then produced an answer that made Akira go silent too.
Although I am not a Digimon defined by raw data volume, regrettably… it cannot contain me.
"…What do you mean it can't contain you?" Akira stared. "This is a 1 EB Digivice. Even Examon is around that scale, isn't it? You're bigger than that?"
My actual data volume is not that large. But I have consumed many Digital Worlds in the past. Although I expelled them later, it still expanded my 'level.'
Simply put: my stored size is not 1 EB, but my runtime requires the entire internet as a carrier.
Your phone has been modified by me to remain continuously connected to the internet. That fulfills my runtime requirements.
Akira's brain audibly whirred.
"So… this Darkness Xros Loader can't hold you because…" he said slowly, "it's… not connected to the internet?"
Yes. Negamon added quietly. Once it has network access, I can enter it.
Akira felt like he'd been hit with a revelation wrapped in a concussion.
So the Digimon encyclopedia's blurb about Negamon's evolution—Abaddomon—"it can be inferred it has destroyed multiple alternate-dimensional Digital Worlds"…
wasn't marketing hype.
Even if "Digital World" didn't necessarily equal "a single universe," if that kind of absurd boast was true…
Then at minimum, Abaddomon was "beyond Digital World" class.
And if Abaddomon was that kind of monster…
what kind of level did "Adventure: 2020 Omnimon" even occupy?
Akira thought about it for a moment, then decisively abandoned the "who beats who" mindset.
Not because he couldn't imagine the combat power of what might be the strongest Digimon in the DM franchise—
but because he firmly believed this wasn't something a fragile elementary school kid should be thinking about right now.
"Anyway, once we're back, we'll think about upgrading the internet hardware," Akira said, forcibly steering the conversation away.
"Right now the Wild Hunt's military construction and logistics are basically solved. What we're missing is a proxy."
"That proxy needs enough authority, or the Wild Hunt will fall apart the moment I leave." He thought briefly. "Unfortunately, we built this faction too quickly. There isn't a suitable candidate—so I'll have to drop in a proxy from above."
Drop in? Negamon didn't understand. There are plenty of strong Digimon in the Wild Hunt. Why do you need to drop in a candidate?
"Because the Wild Hunt still doesn't have a Digimon whose battle record can truly convince everyone," Akira replied.
"If I promote someone too far above their peers, it'll create resentment and instability. I'd rather do it in one step: parachute in a 'strong one' who won't interfere in internal governance—someone who exists purely as a stabilizing banner."
"At least that maintains cohesion in the short term."
I see… Negamon filed the words away. Then how will you 'parachute' them in?
"That's where your power comes in," Akira said with a smile. "Since the dark power needed for the Darkness Xros Loader is nothing to you… then creating a Digimon with dark power shouldn't be hard either."
As long as there is a data record, I can create the Digimon.
What kind do you want? Negamon asked. Argomon? Deathmon? Millenniummon?
"You can do Millenniummon?" Akira couldn't help it—he had to complain. "Are we talking the bargain-bin version, or the genuine Ultra-level world-ending Millenniummon?"
The Ultra-level version will consume significantly more.
So… do you want Millenniummon?
"No." Akira shook his head, serious for once. "The Wild Hunt doesn't need that kind of presence. And I don't need you wasting that much power."
Then… what Digimon do you want?
"For a proper front-line Mega—nothing special, just a standard top-tier—does that cost you much?"
As long as it does not involve special authority, it is not significant.
"So if we're just stacking raw power, a front-line Mega is easy for you…" Akira said slowly. "Then if it's purely aesthetic—any dark Digimon skin is fine?"
Yes.
If any "skin" worked, then obviously he had to pick something cool-looking for his proxy.
The moment he got Negamon's confirmation, Akira's grin returned in full.
"Then make it BlackWarGreymon."
He smiled like a man who'd just made the most correct decision of his entire life.
"BlackWarGreymon is number one under heaven!"
