The next day, Dr. Hikari called everyone back to the CFT building for another emergency meeting.
"Why did you call us here so suddenly, dad?" asked Lan.
"I picked up the energy of a large virus heading for NetCity," said Dr. Hikari with a worried expression.
"I'll get Megaman to tell the others, so we can evacuate the city," said Lan as he picked up his PET. A few hours later, Megaman and the others were getting the last of the NetNavis out of the city.
"No, you can't come back until we are a hundred percent sure it is safe," said Megaman to a group of NetNavis before they logged out.
"That was the last of them," said Roll as she, Gutsman, Glide, Protoman, and Iceman came running up.
"And we should be going to!" said Iceman as he noticed the corruption moving toward them.
"Lan, it's here," said Megaman.
"Get out of there guys, it's to dangerous to stay any longer," said Lan with a terrified expression.
"Let me try something," said Megaman as his hand turned into a blaster, but the blast of energy that had come from it was disintegrated when it entered the corruption.
"Not even our attacks can survive it," said Megaman.
"If that shot had been just a little stronger, it might have reached me," said Viroman as he walked into sight from the darkness of the spreading corruption.
"Are you the one responsible for this?" asked Protoman.
"Not just me," said Viroman as the others appeared beside him.
"Are those NetNavis?" asked Lan as he and the others watched from the meeting room back in the human world.
"You guys aren't normal NetNavis are you?" asked Megaman.
"You're correct, we evolved from NetNavis into NetViruses," said Viroman as he removed his cloak to reveal a black humanoid lion.
"What's a NetVirus?" asked Gutsman while scratching the top of his head.
"It means we were once NetNavis, but then we were exposed to a virus that made it so we can spread destruction across the net," said the tallest of the three lackies as he removed his cloak to reveal that he was an alligator with dark green scales covering his body and dark yellow pants covering his legs.
"Snapper's right, and we have you to thank for that, Megaman," said another lacky as he too revealed himself. He was a hammerhead version of Sharkman with grey skin.
"If you hadn't destroyed the Cyber Beast, we wouldn't be this powerful," said the last lacky. Once he had removed his cloak, it was revealed that he was a humanoid moth.
"And now it's time for us to get rid of you," said Viroman before he shot a dark energy laser at them.
"Logout!" said Megaman, but right when they logged out, the laser hit Megaman's pixels.
"You might have gotten away, but I still managed to land a hit," said Viroman with a wicked smile.
