Perfect

"It really is far away..."

"What a headache. The raft's been smashed..."

"Are you going to Server Continent?" As Whamon looked at the children, something seemed to occur to him.

"That's right."

"To repay you for removing the Black Gear, I'll take you there." After all, it was his fault the children were stranded like this. He couldn't just leave them here.

"Really?"

Hearing that Whamon was willing to help, Sora's gloomy expression instantly brightened.

"That's great!"

Mimi happily raised her hands, forgetting that she was still clinging to a piece of wood.

"Mimi!"

Fortunately, Palmon reacted quickly and scooped her up.

Splash!

With a single rise and fall, Whamon lifted everyone out of the sea and onto his broad dorsal fin!

"He's so fast!"

"Now I won't get seasick!"

Shiiing!

Just as everyone was chatting away, Wizardmon began emitting dazzling rays of light!

"Huh???"

"This is!!!"

"Digivolution!"

"Wizardmon's digivolving!!!"

"Damn it, this guy doesn't even have a Digivice! Why can he digivolve?"

"Amazing!"

"Wizardmon's already a Champion Digimon. If he digivolves again, won't he become a Perfect Digimon like Monzaemon?"

"All right! Now we won't have to be afraid even if we run into an enemy stronger than Devimon."

As they watched the light radiating from Wizardmon, the children wore all sorts of expressions.

Wizardmon... digivolve!

&... (BGM)

Wisemon!

(Profile): Wisemon

A Magic Warrior Digimon from the Another-Dimensional Digital World, "Witchelny." Along with mastering various forms of magic (high-level programming languages), he possesses exceptional swordsmanship. Well versed in both chivalry and the magical arts, he can infuse his sword with magical power to attack.

As the light faded, a humanoid Digimon clad in metal armor and a blue cape, with a greatsword in hand, appeared before everyone.

"Is this... Wisemon?"

Reading the information transmitted to their Digivices, Tai and the others were filled with envy.

"I wonder when Agumon and the others will be able to digivolve into Perfect Digimon." Feeling the waves of power emanating from Wisemon, Tai looked at Agumon beside him and couldn't help imagining what Agumon's Perfect form might look like.

"Once we find the Crests Devimon hid, Agumon and the others will be able to digivolve into Perfect Digimon." Izzy was much more relaxed about Perfect digivolution. After all, with their current lineup, they were already strong enough to handle most dangers.

Still, he really hadn't expected Zhou Zhu's Digimon partner, Wizardmon, to be the first to reach Perfect, even though Zhou Zhu didn't have a Digivice.

"Did you say Devimon?"

At that moment, Whamon, who had been swimming along in silence, suddenly interjected with a question for Tai.

"Huh? You know him?"

Had Devimon's fearsome reputation spread that far? Even Whamon in the depths of the sea had heard of him?

"I don't know about these Tags and Crests you mentioned, but I did see Devimon hiding something somewhere in the sea." In response to Tai's question, Whamon told them what he had seen.

"Huh? Where exactly?" Hearing this, Tai and the others immediately grew excited.

Anything Devimon had hidden was very likely to be the Tags. To think they had nearly missed them! Luckily, Whamon had spoken up.

"It's on the way to Server Continent. Get inside my mouth, and I'll take you there." Since he could help his benefactors, Whamon didn't mind going to a little extra trouble.

Splash!

Whoosh!

Once everyone was back inside his mouth, Whamon flicked his tail and plunged headfirst into the depths.

After quite a while, Whamon brought everyone to an underwater cave.

"This is as far as I can go. You'll have to head inside yourselves. I'll wait here." Because of his enormous size, Whamon could only wait outside the cave.

"All right. Sorry for the trouble, Whamon."

After Tai politely thanked Whamon, everyone slowly followed the passage deeper into the cave.

Before long, a brightly lit area came into view.

"Is that... a convenience store???" Even after all the absurd things they had encountered-the seaside phone booths, the bus in the middle of a lake, Sukamon's vending machines, and the refrigerator on the hot spring mountain-

The sight of a convenience store in an underwater cave still left everyone stunned for a long time...

Bang! Crack!

While everyone was still staring in shock, the ground suddenly split open, and a Drimogemon appeared before them.

"Huh? What's that?"

Matt watched the massive beast with the spiral drill ahead of them and quietly raised his guard. Judging by everything they had encountered so far, Digimon that suddenly appeared like this were generally anything but friendly.

"Drimogemon!"

By then, Tai had already learned the details of the Digimon before them through his Digivice.

"Ah, another Black Gear!"

Sharp-eyed Sora suddenly noticed the conspicuous Black Gear on Drimogemon's head.

"Sure enough, here's another one!" Looking at Drimogemon, Joe felt utterly dejected.

Just how many Black Gears had Devimon scattered around? Even an underwater cave like this had one...

"By Lord Devimon's orders, no one is allowed near this place. Leave at once!" Looking at the children before him, Drimogemon did not immediately attack.

Unlike the other controlled Digimon, who attacked at the slightest provocation, Drimogemon clearly retained his reason.

It seemed this fellow was one of Devimon's trusted subordinates. Otherwise, how could something as important as the Tags have been entrusted to him?

In that case, the Black Gear on his head wasn't there to control him, but to increase his strength.

"Tai, leave this to us. Hurry and find the Tags!" Facing Drimogemon, Agumon showed no fear at all. He had already seen the far stronger Devimon, after all. This was only Drimogemon.

"Got it!"

Tai didn't stand on ceremony with Agumon and immediately prepared to split up with him and the other Digimon.

"Hey, aren't you forgetting something? Do you really need to make such a production of this? Wisemon, go take care of this guy!"

Watching Tai and Agumon finish dividing up their roles, Zhou Zhu was left speechless and simply ordered Wisemon to act.

It was only a Champion-level Drimogemon. Sending Wisemon against him was admittedly overkill, but crushing a weak opponent just felt so good.

Besides, he could take this opportunity to familiarize himself with Wisemon's fighting style.
