[True Love Is Agumon: Group Owner, thank you. Thanks to you all for enlightening me, I finally dared to face the true voice in my heart.]
Taichi said with emotion.
If it weren't for this Darkened Chat Group…
If it weren't for the Dark Group Owner's help…
He probably would have muddled through his entire life like this.
[Cat Burglar: If you're grateful, then send a red packet. (Money eyes emoji)]
[The Archaeologist of Ohara: It's good that you've realized. The world is too cruel. The only ones you can trust are the group members and yourself.]
[This Queen Is So Beautiful: Hmph, this queen reluctantly acknowledges you. What exactly is that Digital World of yours?]
Hancock was a little curious.
Born into the royal family of Amazon Lily, she was familiar with most countries in the One Piece World.
But the Digital World was something she had never heard of.
[True Love Is Agumon: Uh, wait, let me find how to record a video.]
Five minutes later.
[True Love Is Agumon transmitted a video.]
Hancock, Nami, and Robin all curiously opened the video.
Whoosh-
Dreamlike, beautiful scenery instantly filled the view of all three.
The sky was colorful, the clouds soft as cotton candy.
On the plains, in the grasslands, in the swamps, toy-like block houses.
Colorful DigiEggs were everywhere.
[True Love Is Agumon: This is File Island's Primary Village, where all Digimon are born. It's beautiful, right?]
[Cat Burglar: Such a beautiful place, comparable to how Cocoyashi Village used to be.]
[This Queen Is So Beautiful: Where is this? The Kuja Kingdom wants it. One day, I will come to conquer this land.]
[Dark Group Owner: Taichi, you probably have more important things to do right now.]
Looking at the beautiful scenery in the video, a gratified smile appeared on Hattori's face.
He didn't forget to remind him.
[True Love Is Agumon: The Group Owner is right. Agumon has been waiting here for me for ten years. Finding him is the most important thing now.]
Taichi's eyes sparkled, his right hand pressed over his heart.
After ten years in the real world, after seeing so much betrayal, all he wanted now was to see Agumon as soon as possible.
[The Archaeologist of Ohara: Cough, I'm not a Fujoshi, but this is really sweet.]
[This Queen Is So Beautiful: In this queen's country, making a companion wait is a crime. You cowardly fellow, go chase after him quickly.]
[True Love Is Agumon: Mm.]
Taichi clenched his fists.
[Dark Group Owner: Alright, stop dawdling. @The Dead-Last Jinchuriki, I see you're online. Why haven't you said anything for so long?]
During the chat, Hattori's sharp eyes noticed that Naruto had logged into the chat group over ten minutes ago.
But he had been lurking, not saying a word.
[The Dead-Last Jinchuriki: …]
[Cat Burglar: Wow, the big shot is silently lurking. How sneaky.]
[The Archaeologist of Ohara: Jinchuriki, did something happen? I remember you usually talk a lot.]
[This Queen Is So Beautiful: Probably something about that graduation exam again. I really don't get why you're so hung up on that exam.]
'Yeah, why was I so hung up on a meaningless exam before?'
Naruto hid in the woods.
Looking at the blood on his hands, he laughed coldly.
[The Dead-Last Jinchuriki: Group Owner Mister, I went to steal the Scroll of Seals.]
Hattori raised an eyebrow.
[Dark Group Owner: Did you get the result you wanted?]
[The Dead-Last Jinchuriki: Yes. I learned all of it. The whole truth.]
Naruto said coldly.
Although Mizuki was despicable, he was the only one in all of Konoha who told him the truth.
Compared to those Shinobi who wore masks of false kindness and engaged in hypocrisy, he actually hated Mizuki less.
Without him, he wouldn't know how much longer he would have remained in the dark.
[Dark Group Owner: So, what is your choice?]
[The Dead-Last Jinchuriki: I don't want to become a Shinobi anymore. Since they all hate me, I want to find a place far away from them and live a quiet life alone.]
Hattori's expression froze.
'Naruto, at 30% darkening, didn't hate Konoha enough to want to destroy it yet.'
'It seemed he needs further guidance.'
'To slowly be told the final truth.'
'If Naruto knew that his parents were heroes who saved the village…'
'That they died for the village, while he was treated as a monster and suffered all kinds of humiliation…'
'His entire mindset would definitely undergo an even more earth-shattering change.'
[Dark Group Owner: Mm, do as your heart desires. If you need any help, the group will try to provide it.]
[The Dead-Last Jinchuriki: I understand, Group Owner Mister. Logging off for now.]
Naruto's ears twitched slightly.
He had always had sharp senses since childhood… he could hear even the slightest rustle clearly.
'Someone's coming. Quite a few of them.'
Naruto's eyes held an indifferent light.
His figure quickly disappeared into the forest, under the moonlight.
...
Meanwhile, Hattori looked at the DigiEgg that had appeared beside him.
"Phew, a DigiEgg. What will it hatch into?"
Hattori was full of anticipation.
Crack…
As he focused his mind, the shell of the DigiEgg began to crack bit by bit.
A dazzling light shone through the gaps.
When the eggshell completely broke and the full form of the Digimon was revealed, Hattori's eyes lit up, and he said with some surprise, "Plotmon? The Rookie form of my childhood goddess, Angewomon?"
"Woof woof!"
This all-white Digimon, with two large, blinking eyes, rubbed against Hattori's leg, its face full of dependence and happiness.
It was indeed the childhood goddess of countless people in the original Anime…
The child form of Angewomon, Plotmon.
