The A/Ns are still affected by the Mist clouds.
Zeed X's A/N: (Speaking in Megatron (Beast Wars)'s voice) I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning of the end. I am that which is, which was, and is yet to come! And you will know my name is ZeedMillenniummon X, when I lay my vengeance upon you!
(Speaking in his normal voice) Yes, I christened the good parts, because now this and the next chapter is getting more magnificent. The actual main event focusing on myself, DF-616 Prime, Kenny (XLR-8)'s breakdown that'll be so fucking hilarious to see, and of course, (M)otherfucker(I)mmoral(S)hi(T) competing with me to destroy the omniverse.
Neo Grimhilde's A/N: HEHEHEHE! I'M ABOUT TO BREACH ANOTHER WORLD! AND WHAT'S THIS?! BRUNHILDE FROM MY WORLD IS TEAMING WITH THE CORNER!VALKYRIES?! WHY DON'T WE FINISH OUR DISPUTE IN THIS OTHER WORLD?! HEHEHE, COME AT ME VALKYRIES OF OTHER WORLDS! IT'LL BE YOU IN YOUR GRAVES!
Kanius's A/N: I'm on the verge of losing it here. If these two aren't removed soon, I'm going off.
If you already haven't noticed, this chapter is another long one and nearly later-Dawn of Chaos lengths (nowhere near as long as the very long chapters). I advise you to take your time reading this one.
One more thing: this chapter will have guest appearances from a certain group of 'Phantom Thieves'. If you've checked out Ford1114's Persona Vein fanfic, the interlude chapter has been included here.
Enjoy!

Dimension: Character Corner/Asgard
The conflict between morality and immorality has come. After the Corner maidens met Brunhilde, they arrived at the area where Neo Grimhilde materialized. Silver Brunhilde, Valkyries (Corner), Erinyes (Corner), and their allies united against the noncompos mentis Neo Grimhilde.
Neo Grimhilde wore a crazed expression as she noticed Brunhilde. "Heheheh, look who decided to show? My 'BFF'!"
Brunhilde sardonically rebuked. "Yeah, we're real BFFs. Not. We're not friends, Adora!"
Neo Grimhilde chortled. "Adora? That weak fool is asleep right now. You're dealing with me now, Brunhilde! The will of Grimhilde has taken over! And I know what you did!"
Brunhilde was confused. "Did what?"
"AND YOU CALL ME A WHORE?! I KNOW YOU HAD A FOURSOME WITH HIMURA, RIKA, AND TAKATO!"
Upon hearing this, Guilkatomon (Corner), Renrukimon (Corner), and Inumuramon (Corner) turned to each other.
"She's not referring to us," Inumuramon (Corner) pointed out.
"Duh, she's referring to our YYGDM counterparts," Renrukimon (Corner) stated.
Mist (Corner) scoffed. "So, it isn't true, other Brunhilde?"
Brunhilde spat out. "Of course not! I'd never cheat on Kouichi! And I've got standards. I don't know what the hell she's talking about!"
"KEEP LYING TO YOURSELF, BUT I KNOW! I SAW IT ALL PLAY OUT IN MY HEAD!"
"Look, I don't know or care what you saw, but it doesn't matter to me now! All that matters is me kicking your ass, Adora, Mist, Grimhilde, whatever you want to name yourself now?!" Brunhilde exclaimed.
"What if you just saw fake visions? Y'know, someone planting images in your head to fuck around with you?" Brunhilde (Corner) said.
"She's really starting to remind me of Achlys," Gondul (Corner) remarked.
"Geez, these laughing faces are getting under my skin," Geiravor (Corner) scoffed.
"I dunno. Sounds like music to my ears," Rota (Corner) didn't seem to mind.
"Well, of course, it's lovely to you!" Brunhilde (Corner) rolled her eyes.
Neo Brunhilde turned to Brunhilde (Corner). "I'm not scared. I won't let this Mist get under my skin."
Brunhilde (Corner) winked. "Of course not, you're my girl, after all."
The group turned away from the laughing Mist faces, which have now been called the Clouds of Achlys. The sky has become like eternal darkness.
Reginleif (Corner) addressed Brunhilde. "Hey, since you're here, you can refer to her as (M)otherfucker(I)mmoral(S)hi(T)."
Brunhilde smirked. "You don't say?" She looked back at Neo Grimhilde and shouted. "Hey, (M)otherfucker(I)mmoral(S)hi(T), your tartlet ass is going down!" A big confident grin adorned her face.
(Cue Final Fantasy XV: Royal Edition OST - Ardyn V)
Neo Grimhilde's face contorted with anger. "Tartlet ass? TARTLET ASS?! FOR THAT, I'M GONNA KILL ALL YOU!"
As Neo Grimhilde launched her first wave of attacks, the group spread out. Silver Brunhilde, Silver Brunhilde (Corner), and Mist (Corner) flew on one side. The Corner maidens flew into the air, evading Neo Grimhilde's attack. The others moved to another side.
Skuld (Corner) quickly summoned her scythe. She saw Temperance Skuld looking terrified.
"It's ok. We're in this together," Skuld (Corner) reassured her future daughter.
Just then, Inner Skuld telepathically entered Temperance Skuld's mind.
'Have faith in us, Skuld Jr. No way we're all dying here!' Inner Skuld also reassured Temperance Skuld.
After hearing from both Skuld and the Inner, Temperance Skuld's anxiety was placed at ease.
"I'M GOING TO MAKE YOUR SUFFERING LAST! COME FORTH MY FAMILIARS!" Neo Grimhilde bellowed.
Then, Neo Grimhilde summoned the four familiars of Grimhilde. This time, she christened them as her own by referring to them as the Keres: Malefiolent (Her codename is Nosos), Gullveig (Her codename is Anaplekte), Cruella (Her codename is Stygere), and Volva (Her codename is Ker).
"Those are Grimhilde's familiars!" Skogul (Corner) exclaimed.
"Looks like she's modified them to suit her needs!" Geirskogul (Corner) cried out.
Silver Brunhilde gritted. "I remember seeing these four in a vision!"
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) asked. "Your vision?"
Silver Brunhilde replied. "I had a vision that showed this giant bitch coming out of that shell of hers and summoning these witch familiars. If I hadn't prematurely stopped Mist's transformation into this thing, I would've fought and been beaten by these freaks!"
Mist (Corner) chortled. "Have no fear. You're not fighting them alone."
Neo Grimhilde scoffed. "No, this place is too cramped for an all-out war. What do you say we relocate?"
"Relocate where?! No, we're taking your big ass down here!" Silver Brunhilde snapped.
"No can do. You want me? Come and get ME!" With that, Neo Grimhilde casually formed a giant dark portal, which opened up behind her and the Keres.
"Don't try and get away, you freakin' cowards!" Silver Brunhilde (Corner) shouted.
Neo Grimhilde grinned evilly. "Heheheh, watch me!"
Then, Neo Grimhilde and the Keres go through their portal as they breach San Antonio, Texas of all places. Having seen enough, Scott and Neuromancer used their Meta powers in creating a portal for the united forces, though there are those that will stay behind.
"Her portal's closed, but we've created one for you!" Scott called out.
"Hurry and go!" Neuromancer yelled.
"C'mon, you heard him!" Silver Brunhilde (Corner) shouted.
"Adora, we're coming for your ass!" Silver Brunhilde declared.
Silver Brunhilde, Silver Brunhilde (Corner), Skuld (Corner), Skogul (Corner), Sigrun (Corner), Gondul (Corner), Mist (Corner), Reginleif (Corner), Geirskogul (Corner), Rota (Corner), Geiravor (Corner), Ford (Corner), Neuromancer, Scott, Guilkatomon (Corner), Renrukimon (Corner), Terryamon (Corner), Inumuramon (Corner), Moon (Corner), Omega X (Corner), Angemon X (Corner), Dramon X (Corner), Metalla X (Corner), Celesta X (Corner), Max (Corner), Burizalor (Corner), Virus (Corner), Warlord (Corner), Negro Freeza, Kratos, Atreus, Mimir, Neo Brunhilde, Temperance Skuld, Prudence Skogul, Justice Gondul and Courage Sigrun head through the Montgomery brothers' portal.
The rest of the combatants (Nick (Corner), Penny, Tunnel, Playdate & Rover, Carmen (Corner), Philippe (Corner), Anuli, Jeri (Corner), Sara (Corner), Eiko & Eikou, Nicolle, Rowan, Gunnar (Corner), Hagen, Sanngridor) stay behind Asgard alongside the other Norse-related figures.
The war against the Mad Immoral is about to set stage elsewhere.

San Antonio. One of the most famous cities in Texas. Thanks to Takeru Cage and the united forces, all of the population and the animals have escaped to safety due to the forthcoming war against Neo Grimhilde. It's eerie quiet with the laughing Clouds of Achlys lingering endlessly.
Famous locations such as the Tower of the Americas, SeaWorld San Antonio, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, San Antonio Zoo, the Henry B. González Convention Center, and the Alamo Bowl are seen.

Dimension: Character Corner/The Alamo/San Antonio/Texas, United States
(Cue Owari no Seraph Opening FULL - 「X.U.」 » 終わりのセラフ OP)
A new diverse group of characters have arrived in the abandoned city. Likely, while they were sleeping for an important mission, they are transported from their dreams akin to Inception to some kind of a new dimension.
They are part of the Persona Vein continuity (Dimensional codename: PV-18) that crossed the Persona series (strictly Persona 5), Code Vein, Nioh, and Kakegurui. The names of these characters are Amamiya Ren/Joker (雨宮 蓮/ジョーカー) (Persona 5), Takamaki Ann/Panther (高巻 杏/パンサー) (Persona 5), Sion (the Code Vein character customization protagonist who is a young man with dark blond hair), Togo Hifumi (東郷 一二三) (Persona 5), Jabami Yumeko (蛇喰 夢子) (Kakegurui), Niijima Makoto/Queen (新島 真/クイーン) (Persona 5), Sakamoto Ryuji/Skull (坂本 竜司/スカル) (Persona 5), Morgana/Mona (モルガナ/モナ) (Persona 5), Kitagawa Yusuke/Fox (喜多川 祐介/フォックス) (Persona 5), Sakura Futaba/Oracle (佐倉 双葉/ナビ) (Persona 5), Okumura Haru/Noir (奥村 春/ノワール) (Persona 5), and Nekomata (猫又) (Nioh).
Joining the party are dream versions of Mia Karnstein (Code Vein), Louis (Code Vein), Yakumo Shinonome (Code Vein), and Akechi Goro/Crow (明智 吾郎/クロウ) (Persona 5).
It is like an Akane no Mai, giving meanings of 'deep red', 'red dance', and 'red lost child'. Their minds danced into this dreamscape like lost beings wandering. But, much like the Phantom Thieves' motif color is red, and the Revenants' thirst for blood, they both share the same desires of rebelling against the corrupted society.
The party explored and scanned their new surroundings. This is all new territory for them and nothing like their Japanese home.
"Talk about not being familiar with our surrounding environment," Ren meticulously scanned. "But, I know we're not anywhere near home."
Ryuji wondered. "So, where the hell are we?"
Yusuke noticed the famous Alamo landmark. "From what I've studied about American culture, we're in Texas. San Antonio, Texas specifically."
Ann blinked. "And how do you know that?"
Futaba pointed toward the Alamo. "That's why. That's the Alamo where Texas fought Mexico. The people who fought for independence proclaimed the famous, 'Remember the Alamo'! If you think about it, those people who fought for Texas' independence are freedom fighters kinda like us."
Haru nodded. "Yes, that does describe us, Phantom Thieves, well."
Ryuji sighed as he sardonically responded. "Yeah, yeah, thanks for the history lesson, but tell me why the hell is Akechi Goro with us?" He turned to Akechi, who was behind them with Mia, Louis, and Yakumo.
"That's because he's not the real Akechi Goro," Makoto answered Ryuji.
"They're just cognitive versions of these people. These three happen to be from my timeline. They're not real, but they can still interact with us all the same." Sion added as he's talking with Mia, Louis, and Yakumo.
Akechi chuckled. "Come now, I may not be real, but you shouldn't be hostile toward me."
Looking over his shoulder, Ren addressed Akechi. "Forgive us. It's just awkward that you're with us since we haven't seen the real Akechi Goro for a few years. We still haven't been given word on his whereabouts."
Hifumi smiled at Sion. "You must be happy to see your friends again. They seem nice."
Mia replied to Hifumi. "Thanks for taking in our friend and tending to him."
Hifumi bowed to the female Revenant. "It's my pleasure, Mia-san. It's nice meeting someone else like Sion."
Overhearing them, Makoto made a playful jab. "Oh look at me, I'm so popular with the ladies. Boy, aren't you slick, Mr. Revenant."
Sion smirked. "Jealous?"
Makoto rolled her eyes. "As if."
Ann briefly conversed with Mia and Louis.
"So, Mia, Louis, those names of yours aren't Japanese. That'd make you foreigners like me?" Ann pointed out.
Louis replied, feeling comfortable conversing with Ann. "It's good knowing there's someone we can speak with casually and can understand our language."
Mia smiled. "English does become the universal language and becomes the dominant one in our time."
Ann smiled. "I'm thankful I can speak another language and speak to other foreigners like me. Sion is a pretty cool guy once we got to know him."
Yusuke noted. "But Yakumo is a name of Japanese origin. Do you happen to be Japanese?"
Yakumo answered. "I'm a Revenant am Japanese. Although, pure Japanese are nearly extinct in our time. I'm only half-Japanese." He turned to Sion. "And I follow him as a way to repay my debt. He saved me as I was on the verge of becoming a Lost."
"Interesting," Yusuke said.
Just then, Morgana walked over to Mia.
"Mia-san, how long have you known Sion?"
"To be honest, only about as long as I've known him," Mia replied, looking over toward Sion's direction. "We are only one of the remaining Revenants in our time."
Morgana nodded. "I see. Yes, that's very interesting. There's much about you Revenants I'd like to know about."
Mia chuckled. "And I'd like to know how a cat like you can even talk, but I've seen weirder things."
Haru whispered to Makoto. "By the way, don't you think Louis is quite attractive, Mako-chan?"
Makoto blinked and shook her head. "What? You really think so?" She looked over toward Louis.
Haru giggled at Makoto's reaction. "Well? He's quite handsome."
Makoto scoffed, turning away not giving Louis so much of a glance.
"Yes, you have to admit he's very good looking."
"Maybe for a Revenant, I suppose," the female police officer shrugged. "Then again, this is just a dream version of him."
Haru nodded. "Yes, I'll bet the real deal is even more attractive."
Makoto sighed. "Right."
As the group continued to explore the area near the Alamo, Ren listened to the casual and jovial conversations were having with the Revenants. He felt at ease as the Thieves, Hifumi, and Yumeko were establishing friendly bonds with Sion and his cohorts. It was much better than the previous hostility Makoto and Sion had for each other. Only Akechi seemed out of place and that was mostly due to some of the Thieves still feeling distrustful toward him.
Just then, Ren stopped. The others noticed Ren standing still. Morgana hurried over to Ren's side.
"Hey, is everything ok?"
Ren muttered. "Yeah…" Before he can finish, a distorted wave swept through the vicinity and changed the Phantom Thieves into their super powered forms. Ren noticed being in his Joker attire.
"Heads up!" Sion called out as he saw something bright light flaring above them.
(Cue CRISIS OST - Hiroyuki Sawano - 9a14s)
Suddenly, a burst of anomalous golden light cast down from the sky. The beam summoned a lone figure on top of a building. As the light is cleared, it revealed a young blond-haired woman from Spain with her tied in a right single braid, garbed in a dark brown uniform with a white shirt underneath, white pants, golden cape, dark brown boots, and carried a rapier. Her name is Maria (Nioh). The Spanish woman gazed her puissant eyes towards the group.
Maria walked out from the Alamo entrance like a royal queen. The group held their ground as the proud Spanish woman stopped in front of them.
"Phantom Thieves, I presume?" Maria addressed them.
"Yes. Are you the one who brought us here?" Joker queried to her.
"Daymn, she's quite the hottie," Skull remarked over Maria's attractive looks.
Panther groaned. "Stay focused, will you?"
Sion growled toward Maria. "I'm sensing a malevolent aura from her."
Mia, Louis, and Yakumo quickly amassed next to Sion. The Revenants fiercely glared down Maria.
Before Mona can speak, Nekomata's spirit materialized next to him.
"Phantom Thieves and Revenants, beware this is Maria, the chaos bringer that sought the Amrita. She's proficient in combat and not one to be taken lightly. And I sense she's brought other evil spirits with her," Nekomata warned the group.
"Other evil spirits?" Queen wondered cautiously.
"Whoever they are, bring them on," Sion demanded.
"Whoa, don't goad her, you idiot!" Makoto chided the Revenant.
"We must be cautious when facing the unknown," Fox stated.
Oracle gasped as her scanner readings increased. "Whoa! Danger, danger Will Robinson!" She called out, referencing the famous Robot from Lost in Space. "The readings on these spirits are off the charts!"
Joker had a cautious look. "What?!"
Mona added as the back of his fur stood. "She's right! We've got company and not the kind you'd want!"
Maria smirked evilly. "Yes, I've communicated with these spirits and they asked me to bring them to you. They're dying to meet you." She raised her rapier into the air. "Come forth and materialize!"
Then, four dark figures materialized behind Maria, reminded of the restless spirits released from Yomi-no-kuni. Behind her are the Shadow versions of Shido Masayoshi (獅童 正義), Kamoshida Suguru (鴨志田 卓), Madarame Ichiryusai (斑目 一流斎), and Kaneshiro Junya (金城 潤矢).
Needless to say, the Phantom Thieves are surprised to see their old enemies.
Joker was taken aback by the familiar Shadows. "It can't be?!"
Skull gaped in shock. "Hell nah, we kicked their asses before! Why are the shit are they here?!"
Oracle reminded them. "Well, we are in a dream-like realm, right? Cognitive thoughts can do a lot of crazy things, including bringing back old enemies."
Panther gritted angrily toward Shadow Kamoshida. "Not you again!"
Fox coldly glared at Shadow Madarame. "So, we're doing this again?"
Queen fiercely scowled at Shadow Kaneshiro. "Ugh, I'd hope I'd never to see your disgusting bug face again."
Joker glared down Shadow Shido. "And even you've returned. I thought we got rid of you."
Shadow Shido evilly chuckled as his eyes turned yellow. "You might've changed the hearts of the very same humans we've possessed, but you can't get rid of us Shadows that easily. Thanks to some outside force whose power is disrupting dimensions, negative cognitive energies started to overflow and thus allowed us to reconstitute ourselves. With the Metaverse gone, we were left drifting until we happened upon this woman here. She, like us, was revived by an entity whose power is akin to Yaldabaoth. And what a better way to exact our revenge than to finish you while you're all asleep!"
Crow interjected. "Then, what about us four?" He referred to himself, Mia, Louis, and Yakumo. "We just came into being because the Phantom Thieves and that Revenant conceived us from their cognitive memories?"
Shadow Shido veered to the cognitive version of Shido's son. "Correct, you four are not real. As for where the real Akechi Goro is nowadays, I don't know nor do I care."
Mia gasped. "So, we'll be gone once you wake up, Sion."
Sion wanted to say something, but Hifumi consoled him.
"Don't worry about that now. They'll be fighting with us to defeat this evil," Hifumi said.
Skull quipped. "Yep, these Shadows are still the same shithole scumbags."
Shadow Kaneshiro cursed them out while buzzing. "Hey, yo, we're gonna beat you biznatches all over and get our revenge, yo!"
Shadow Kamoshida chuckled in a twisted pervy tone. "Eheheh, ladies I'll take good care of you all, especially you, Panther."
Shadow Madarame cackled. "Call me a rip-off artist, will you?! For that, I'll blacklist you from this reality permanently!"
Maria chuckled while tightening the grip of her rapier. "So, now that we have reintroductions out of the way, how about we commence the battles? We can't hold off on your executions any longer."
Joker and Sion stood off against Maria.
"You're right. What are we waiting for?" Joker accepted Maria's challenge.
"Defeat us, and that's a big if, then you'll wake up," Maria stated the conditions. "However, when you lose, you're trapped here forever."
Sion muttered. "With no chance of us ever waking up."
Maria smirked evilly. "Correct, you'll be trapped in an endless sleep and you'll be subjected to us killing you over and over. Our battles will end up on an endless loop until we break your spirits and your physical bodies die."
Queen rebuked. "Sorry, but we don't plan on dying in our sleep. We're beating you here!"
Nekomata cautioned them. "Be careful when you engage Maria. She can and has beaten multiple opponents at once in her prime."
Mona nodded. "Thanks for the warning, but I have faith in the Thieves and our friends."
"We've accepted your conditions, Maria," Joker stated.
"That's good to hear. Shall we proceed with this battle of cognitive wills?!" The Spanish woman declared as the environment around them transformed into a Mementos-like setting. Amrita stones and shards are seen around the area. "I'll be waiting for you in this historic landmark. If you can defeat these Shadows, then come meet me where I'll duel you." With that, she headed into the Alamo.
The four Shadows spread out over San Antonio's downtown vicinity.
"They're shifting toward different locations!" Noir cried out.
"They're going for a divide and conquer strategy. Clever," Fox said.
"Even so, we have to spread out and fight them. I have faith in us we can do this," Mona stated with the utmost confidence in his team's abilities.
"This is the first I'll be fighting these Shadows," Hifumi said slightly worried. "I hope my spirit Janomecho will be enough."
Yumeko chuckled darkly much to her friends' suspicions.
"Why is she laughing now at a time like this?" Mia asked Sion.
"It's Yumeko, don't ask," Sion sighed.
As she continued laughing, Yumeko gave a crazed look. Her eyes glowed bright red as her blissful nature reached new levels.
"Eheheh, OH YES! THEY'VE GOT ME ALL EXCITED NOW!" Yumeko shouted. "GAMBLE AND STAKE MY OWN LIFE IN THIS? I ACCEPT!"
Everyone cowered back and became creeped out by the Compulsive Gambler's ecstatic outburst. Even the other Revenants, who've just been introduced to Yumeko, were weirded out by her and they've seen the freakiest of creatures in their time.
Yumeko wasted no time summoning the Nine-Tailed Fox. "C'mon, let's gamble to our heart's content!" She ran off ahead.
Skull yelled out. "Whoa, hold on!"
Joker sighed as he turned to his sister figure. "Oracle, you know what to do."
Oracle nodded. "Right! Defenses up!"
With that, the group received defense boosts.
"And some speed boosts so we can catch up and find those Shadows," Panther suggested.
Oracle added. "You got it! Speed up!"
The group received quick speed boosts.
"All right, split up, but be cautious on your way to fight the Shadows," Mona forewarned them about any other possible dangers and obstacles before meeting the Shadow bosses.
"Good luck and persevere, young ones. Hifumi-san, you and Yumeko may need to utilize your spirit's full potentials if you end up facing Maria."
Hifumi nodded. "We will. Thank you, Nekomata-sama."
"Phantom Thieves and company, move!" Joker declared.
Fox, Oracle, Hifumi, and Yakumo went one way to face Shadow Madarame. Yumeko, Noir, and Louis went another way to find Shadow Kaneshiro. Panther, Skull, Mona, and Mia headed off to face Shadow Kamoshida. Joker, Sion, Queen, and Crow went forward to confront Shadow Shido.

Dimension: Character Corner/San Antonio/Texas, United States
(Cue Final Fantasy XV Royal Edition OST - SOMNUS II)
In the middle of San Antonio; far away from the PV-18 area to prevent meddling interferences; Silver Brunhilde, Silver Brunhilde (Corner), Skuld (Corner), Skogul (Corner), Sigrun (Corner), Gondul (Corner), Mist (Corner), Reginleif (Corner), Geirskogul (Corner), Rota (Corner), Geiravor (Corner), Ford (Corner), Neuromancer, Scott, Guilkatomon (Corner), Renrukimon (Corner), Terryamon (Corner), Inumuramon (Corner), Moon (Corner), Omega X (Corner), Angemon X (Corner), Dramon X (Corner), Metalla X (Corner), Celesta X (Corner), Max (Corner), Burizalor (Corner), Virus (Corner), Warlord (Corner), Negro Freeza, Kratos, Atreus, Mimir, Neo Brunhilde, Temperance Skuld, Prudence Skogul, Justice Gondul and Courage Sigrun came out from the portal.
Coming out from another portal are Sailor Pluto (Corner), Volodramon (Corner), Sailor Chaos (Corner), and Millenniummon (Corner).
Arriving from the other side and joining the united forces are Takeru Cage, Tabaga, R. Homura, Spirit & Alma, TOM, Haruhi Suzumiya, Akane Tsunemori, Mr. Popo, Saitama, Genos, Tatsumaki, Boros, Omnimon Merciful Mode & Adventure tri./canon Digidestined, Jesmon & Taiyou Takarada, Ritsu Takarada, Izuku Midoriya (cosplay as Captain America), Katsuki Bakugou (cosplay as Iron Man), All Might (cosplay as Hulk), Tenya Iida (cosplay as Doctor Strange), Shoto Todoroki (cosplay as Thor), Ochako Uraraka (cosplay as Black Widow), and Tomura Shigaraki. They are the ones responsible for escorting all of San Antonio's population and animals to safety before Neo Grimhilde (YYGDM-01)'s arrival.
Neo Grimhilde boasted, facing down her massive opposition. "So you followed me here! Tch, I'm not surprised, but it really doesn't matter. I've gathered enough power to crush you like the bugs you are!"
Silver Brunhilde scoffed at Neo Grimhilde's threat. "Yeah, boast all you want, but it's only you and your stupid familiars against us."
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) added. "She's right! We outnumber you and you're not big enough to do shit to us!"
Sailor Pluto (Corner) advised the Brunhilde duo. "You might not want to instigate her."
Sailor Charon (Corner) groaned. "Too late. The bitch's starting to grow!"
"Heh, be careful what you wish for! You just might get it!" Neo Grimhilde roared as lime green energies leaked out and covered her, causing her body to shift and grow to gargantuan proportions.
Neo Grimhilde transformed into a 3,000 ft tall eldritch abomination that looked similar to Ultimecia's final form. However, the upper body had Neo Grimhilde's face instead of Ultimecia's faceless visage, while her inverted lower body is actually Adora/Mist (YYGDM-01). Adora/Mist (YYGDM-01) is not only separated from Mist/Neo Grimhilde, but is also unconscious in a deep sleep. Neo Grimhilde took full control of her consciousness. She had six spiked-like feathered wings on her back. Two feathered wing-like hair protruded on each side of her upper head. She had a lower lime green cape decorated with black silhouette laughing Mist faces. The cape is covered and behind her lower body is shaped like a feathered wing. She ascended into Ultimate Grimhilde.
She then summoned a massive army of clone Mistruxes consisting of Mists, Dai-Valkyrie Mists, Immoral Valkyries, Mistkurokubi, Mistberi, Transmogrified Mists, Dea Mists, Suzaists, Byakists, Seirists, Genbists, Babists (based on Adora (YYGDM-01), which are child versions of Adora armed with sickles instead of hands), Caladrists (winged humanoid figures based on the ones Grimhilde (YYGDM-01) used combined with names of Caladrius and Mist), and Mistzillas (Godzilla monsters with Mist's faces).
With Inner Skuld resurfacing, Skuld (Corner) snarled, shifting her eyebrow upward with anger. "You two were saying?!"
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) rolled her eyes back, whistling. "What? How was I supposed to know she can do that?"
Reginleif (Corner) chuckled. "Don't worry about it. I still our chances. Together with all our allies here, we can beat her!"
Mist (Corner) concurred with her cousin. "Yes, and I won't rest until I've had my payback on this monstrosity."
Overhearing the Maidens and Erinyes gossip, Ultimate Grimhilde chuckled as her voice loudly boomed. "WITH MY POWER, I TEND TO DESTROY THE CORNERVERSE'S ENTIRE EXISTENCE! AND I'LL DO SO WITH MY IMMORAL COMPRESSION!"
Silver Brunhilde sighed. "Ultimate Grimhilde? What's next, Universal Bitch Whore Goddess Grimhilde? You're getting lame with these titled names, Adora!"
Ultimate Grimhilde roared with fury. "I AM NOT ADORA FROST! FOR THAT, I'LL WIPE OUT YOUR WORLD AND THE ENTIRE OMNIVERSE. I'LL REPLACE ALL OF IT WITH MY OWN IMMORAL IMAGE AND CREATE AN IMMORAL NEXUS ALONG WITH AN IMMORAL CAULDRON! I WILL TAKE OVER COSMOS'S ROLE! AND YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE, KOTORI?!"
Silver Brunhilde sighed. "What?"
"I INTEND TO KEEP MY FOUR MOST HATED ENEMIES: YOU, TAKATO, RIKA, AND HIMURA! I HAVE GRUESOME PLANS FOR YOU! I HAVE A FATE WORSE THAN DEATH PLANNED FOR YOU FOUR!" Ultimate Grimhilde grinned evilly, breathing smoke from her mouth and nostrils. "SINCE YOU FOUR LOVE TO FUCK EACH OTHER SO MUCH, I'LL FUCK YOU FOUR AND MAKE YOU MY BREEDING SLAVES! I'LL ESPECIALLY ENJOY FUCKING YOUR 'ASS STRAIGHT' BRUNHILDE! I'LL MAKE YOU PRODUCE FOR ME AN ELDRITCH ALIEN RACE OF MY OWN IMMORAL SPECIES CALLED XEMORALS TO POPULATE MY IMMORAL OMNIVERSE AND THEN HAVE MY CHILDREN BREED WITH YOU TO CREATE MORE SPAWNS. HOW DOES THAT SOUND, BRUNHILDE?! A FATE WORSE THAN DEATH!"
Picking at her ear, Silver Brunhilde groaned. "You had me at creating your own immoral omniverse or whatever, but making me and my friends your own whores? Like hell, I'll mother your kids… YOU SICK FREAK!"
Every other hero nodded in agreement and conveyed their disgust at the omniverse's biggest whore.
"Just for saying all that stupid shit to me, I'm just gonna kick your ass," Silver Brunhilde took out ber Moon Force Crystal. "Y'know, I do wonder what'll happen if I went even deeper with this crystal. Silver Valkyrie was my peak. Could I get even more powerful?"
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) persuaded her counterpart. "Only one way to find out, right?"
Silver Brunhilde grasped her crystal and invoked its full energies. "Hell yeah!" She communed with the Moon Force Crystal's power. All right, crystal. Let's see if you can grant me yet another boost. I'll need something beyond Silver Valkyrie mode to beat Ultimate Grimhilde! Give me something!
Suddenly, the Moon Force Crystal glowed with a silver light, which then converted into pure white light. The white glowed started covering Silver Brunhilde from head to toe.
(Cue Two Steps From Hell - Amaria Silverbird (Orchestral))
"Whoa, it's responding! And check it out!" Silver Brunhilde shouted as her silver armor turned pure white. Just then, her crystal collected the energies from the Corner!Valkyries and Erinyes to be added to her own.
Mist (Corner) realized portions of her energy were being absorbed into Silver Brunhilde's crystal. "She's borrowing a little of our powers?"
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) encouraged. "Go ahead and take all you need! Hope it'll be enough to power ya up!"
Besides her armor changing, Silver Brunhilde gained six feathered wings. Her platinum blonde hair turned slightly silverish white. Her armor also gained purple and gold. A white aura materialized over her as it greatly empowered her.
"That aura! That power!" Skogul (Corner) shouted. "That's the power that Lady Frigg once had!"
"The power of the previous White Valkyrie?!" Geirskogul (Corner) exclaimed.
"NO! IT CAN'T BE! SHE HAS THE SAME POWER THAT WHORE FRIGG HAD?!" Ultimate Grimhilde snarled with disdain, backing away from the white light radiating from Silver Brunhilde.
"She's become the White Valkyrie… no, not just that," Sailor Pluto (Corner) observed in awe.
"What else has she become?" Inquired Volodramon (Corner).
"She's gained Frigg's Valkyrie armor's likeness and her powers is similar to hers," Pluto (Corner) muttered. "She's practically transformed into the second incarnation of Frigg… she's become Neo Frigg."
The Corner!Maidens and Erinyes marveled at the sight of Neo Frigg the White Valkyrie.
"This is the ultimate peak of the Moon Force Crystal," Pluto (Corner) informed them.
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) pondered. "I wonder if I can do that?"
Neo Frigg shot an intense glare toward Ultimate Grimhilde. "Your end has come, Grimhilde." She spoke in a powerful and refined tone unlike her casual one. It sounded less like her crude but badass self, but a stern and archaic one.
Moon (Corner) took out her Silver Crystal. "Well, since there's no restrictions placed on me in this universe, I get to do this!" She invoked her Silver Crystal and transformed herself into her Sailor Cosmos Aspect form.
Sailor Charon (Corner) chuckled. "Well, if you get free reign to do that, then there shouldn't be anything holding me back!" She enveloped herself in a black aura and transformed herself into Sailor Chaos (Corner). "As the last Sharon Rivers/Sailor Charon in the omniverse, I won't go down without a fight. And someone's gotta be here to counteract your Cosmos power." She said this to the Moon/Cosmos Aspect (Corner).
"Cosmos and Chaos will fight against this immorality that threatens our universe," Moon/Cosmos Aspect (Corner) plainly stated.
"You don't get to hog the glory," Skuld (Corner) summoned Satan's power and by extension Baphomet's head to bring forth her undead army. A wicked grin crossed her face. "My army is looking forward to tearing hers apart."
Neo Frigg gaped in shock at Skuld (Corner)'s summoning power. "Whoa, this version of Skuld uses Lucifer's powers? My Skuld lacks that ability."
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) shuddered fearfully at Skuld (Corner). "And your Skuld is better off without it. This power still creeps me the hell out."
Rota recalled her battle against Skuld (Corner), who used Baphomet's power to conjure an undead army. This happened during the Shinnen: New Year events in New York City. "And they say I'm creepy… I'll never forget what she did to me."
Neo Frigg fearlessly interacted with Neo Grimhilde. "Grimhilde, thou art about to meet an end to this madness."
Ultimate Grimhilde snarled, gritting her sharp demonic teeth. "AND THOU SHALT DIE WITH THE REST OF THIS UNIVERSE AND THE WHOLE OMNIVERSE! IMMORALITY SPREAD! IMMORALITY! IMMORALITY!"
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) yelled out. "She's lost it!"
Neo Frigg drew out her sword and faced her nemesis. "Fear not, my friends. We shall put an end to this conflict and Grimhilde shall cease when this is over. With my power radiating from me, I can call forth more allies to fight with us."
Sailor Pluto (Corner), Volodramon (Corner), Sailor Chaos (Corner), and Millenniummon (Corner) were the first to notice the pure energy pouring out from Neo Frigg.
Volodramon (Corner) yelled. "Quickly, my friends! Let us harness this power the other Brunhilde is sending off!"
Sailor Pluto raised her Garnet Staff to gather some of Neo Frigg's power. "And use it to create portals to summon allies here to fight with us!"
Sailor Pluto/Volodramon (Corner) and Sailor Chaos/Millenniummon (Corner) then created dimensional portals, and with harnessed energy coming from Neo Frigg, to summon special guests.
These guests are alternate Valkyries from other dimensions like multiple versions of Spider-Man. This is what Neo Grimhilde referred to when she declared 'Calling all Valkyries' in her A/Ns.
A group of ten maidens appears coming from a dimension where every fictional character is a part of the Lantern Corp(s). Their armor appearances are colored after their respective lanterns: Green Lantern Brunhilde, Black Lantern Skuld, White Lantern Gondul, Sinestro Corp Mist, Blue Lantern Geiravor, Red Lantern Reginleif, Orange Lantern Rota, Indigo Tribe Skogul, Indigo Tribe Geirskogul, and Star Sapphire Sigrun. Skuld and Gondul, as Black and White Lanterns respectively of death vs. life, are the strongest Maiden characters. This version of Skuld is also Nekron's daughter and wields Nekron's scythe.
The thirteen Zodiac Valkyries appear in their summon-like glory: Virgo Valkyrie, Ophiuchus Valkyrie, Aries Valkyrie, Taurus Valkyrie, Gemini Valkyrie, Cancer Valkyrie, Leo Valkyrie, Libra Valkyrie, Scorpio Valkyrie, Sagittarius Valkyrie, Capricorn Valkyrie, Aquarius Valkyrie, and Pisces Valkyrie.
A duo of Valkyries appears. They are from a dimension of lesbian Valkyries.
One is Skögul (Les) though her appearance is different. She is the daughter of Heimdallr. Her long blond hair has light blue streaks, and she wore princess curls instead of long locks. She wore a headgear akin to Heles's (Dragon Ball Super) with two golden wings attached instead of a helmet. She has bronze skin. She wore sea green armor with light blue linings, and her white dress is just like the YYGDM-01 version, which is elegant and completely covers her legs. Her voice is also different, to which the voice actor is Patricia Summersett.
The other is Göndul (Les) and her appearance is different. She had short white hair without a helmet and has orange streaks. She has dark brown skin. Her white armor has orange linings and wore black pants instead of a skirt. Her voice is also different, to which the voice actor is Kimberly Brooks.
Göndul (Les) and Skögul (Les) are seen embracing each other as butch (Les!Göndul) and lipstick (Les!Skögul) lesbians.
A gogglehead girl named Kotori Ayami appeared with a MetalSeadramon as her Digimon partner. She came from the dimension: Youko-Earth/Sector 2319. She is also the same one that once sends her energy for the Life Bomb that defeated Zeed years ago.
The next group consists of four young men that are gender-bent Valkyries, but with clothing similar to the FFXV bros with the same Valkyrie armor colors and the same voices of the FFXV leads. Male!Brunhilde played the role of Noctis. Male!Skogul is like Ignis. Male!Gondul is like Gladiolus. And Male!Sigrun is like Prompto.
The next group consists of the Valkyrie Rangers piloting their Zords. Brunhilde is the Red Ranger and her Zord is the Grani Zord. Skuld is the Pink Ranger and her Zord is the Garm Zord. Gondul is the Black Ranger and her Zord is the Geri Zord. Sigrun is the Blue Ranger and her Zord is the Tanngrisnir Zord. Skogul is the Yellow Ranger and her Zord is the Huginn Zord. Standing beside them is a corny enchantress named Mist Repulsa. More background from this universe: Loki is like Lord Zedd, which is a coincidence since the Lokar name is used for a Power Rangers villain.
The last group consists of nine young women called the Sailor Maidens: Sailor Brunhilde, Sailor Suzaku (a Genderbent!Takato), Sailor Seiryuu (She and Sailor Suzaku are lesbians), Sailor Genbu (a Genderbent!Henry), Sailor Byakko (a Genderbent!Himura. She and Sailor Genbu are lesbians.), Sailor Skogul, Sailor Skuld, Sailor Gondul, and Sailor Sigrun. A Tuxedo Norse appeared beside them named Tuxedo Siegfried.
"Look at all these Valkyries!" Moon/Cosmos Aspect (Corner) marveled at the sheer number of the Valkyries' alternate universe counterparts.
"Now we've really got a Valkyrie army on our side," Reginleif stated.
Sailor Chaos (Corner) chuckled. "Even Sailor Valkyries?"
Guilkatomon (Corner) noticed Sailor Suzaku with Sailor Seiryuu. "Look, Rika! It's us! And I'm… I'm a girl! And we're together!"
Renrukimon (Corner) smirked. "Our love for each other is strong enough to spread to other dimensions."
Both Terryamon (Corner) and Inumuramon (Corner) noticed their Sailor counterparts: Sailor Genbu and Sailor Byakko. "And there's our genderbent Sailor counterparts!"
The voice of Terriermon was heard chuckling within Terryamon. "And you are a total babe as a chick, Henry!"
"Terriermon!"
Inumuramon (Corner) also noticed Tuxedo Siegfried. "Wait, there's me! So, I've got a genderbent Sailor me and a Tuxedo me! Wow, lucky me."
Sigrun (Corner) noticed the genderbent!Male 'Valkyries'. "Speaking of genderbent, that's me as a dude!" She was mesmerized by male!Sigrun.
Gondul (Corner) was impressed with male!Gondul. "You can't say I don't make a handsome guy."
Geiravor (Corner) chuckled. "If I didn't already have a boyfriend, I'd totally fall for him." She then realized what she said. "But I'll forget he's also you."
Skogul (Corner) observed the Lantern Valkyries. "We also have Lantern counterparts!"
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) added. "So, I get to be a Green Lantern in one world, a Chosen Child in another, a dude in another, and even a freakin' Power Ranger in another universe?! Wow, this is so cool, but so much to take in!"
Neo Frigg tried taking all these developments in. "This is all so surreal. I'd never thought I'd see other versions of me."
Mist (Corner) shrugged. "So, I get to be a Yellow Lantern? Fitting if you ask me." She also noticed Mist Repulsa. "Gah, that's supposed to be me?!"
Reginleif squealed with delight. "And I'm a Red Lantern!"
Geirskogul (Corner) turned to Skogul (Corner). "And we're Indigo Tribe Lanterns."
Skogul (Corner) nodded. "Yes, and we've got quite the revealing outfits, don't we?"
Sigrun (Corner) smiled gleefully. "And not anywhere near revealing as mine! I'm a Star Sapphire!"
Skuld (Corner) was satisfied learning her Lantern affiliation. "And I'm a Black Lantern. I do approve. That means I'm probably Nekron's daughter in that universe."
Gondul (Corner) added. "And how fitting I'm a White Lantern to counteract you."
Ford (Corner) witnessed Göndul (Les) & Skögul (Les) and confessed to Skogul (Corner), "Now I also understand why I mentioned YYGDM!Skogul being most 'mistreated' back in Valkyrie Homecoming. Originally, during Valkyrie Advent's ongoing chapters, the same contributor that added Alec, he also suggested YYGDM!Skogul and YYGDM!Gondul as a couple, but it's already too late since that contributor should have known Cross Generations's development before VA is release. Looking back, YYGDM!Jessica did have a crush on Carmen and is the first to sense Anansi from YYGDM!Gondul. Heck, both have Odin's ravens and wolves, despite having a different interpretation with their Corner selves like you and our Brunhilde's Sleipnir as the Odin Triad. One can wonder if that lesbian concept works in another continuity."
Skogul (Corner) and Geirskogul (Corner) both embraced Ford (Corner).
"It's ok, honey," Geirskogul (Corner) kissed him.
"No matter what goes on with our other selves, we both unconditionally love you," Skogul (Corner) leaned over and kissed him.
Ford (Corner) kissed his two wives. "Thank you, my loves."
Neo Frigg openly declared war on Ultimate Grimhilde. "Be careful what thee wish for when thou call out the Valkyries. We have all declared war on you."
Ultimate Grimhilde bellowed. "THEN BRING ALL THOU GOT, VERMIN!"

TOM, piloting the Absolution, fires laser cannons at Ultimate Grimhilde.
Omega X (Corner) launched himself into Ultimate Grimhilde and fired a Tsunami Wave in her face. Max (Corner) blasted Ultimate Grimhilde's side face with his own Tsunami Wave. Metalla X (Corner) and Super Angemon X (Corner) unleashed a Father-Son Final Flash into Ultimate Grimhilde's back. Celesta X HM (Corner) slashed Ultimate Grimhilde's left eye with her sword. Apocaly X (Corner), Belial X (Corner), and the Warlord (Corner) fired a barrage of destructive blasts that pushed Ultimate Grimhilde back.
"Hey, big bitch!" Dramon X (Corner) called out.
As Ultimate Grimhilde whirled her head around, Dramon X (Corner) punched her square in the forehead and dazed her hard enough to knock her back. Ultimate Grimhilde got a little disoriented, allowing the AU!Valkyries to attack.
The Zodiac Valkyries barraged their grand esper-like attacks. The Aries Valkyrie unleashed Hellfire as the devastating fire burned Ultimate Grimhilde. The Pisces Valkyrie used Frostwave, charging her trident and encasing Ultimate Grimhilde into crystallized ice before it shattered. The Capricorn Valkyrie used Judgment Bolt, where she released bolts of electricity. The Gemini Valkyrie used Condemnation that summoned dead souls with the Valkyrie hurling them at the target. The Sagittarius Valkyrie used Soul Purge, where she fired soul energies from her guns, creating an explosion. The Leo Valkyrie used Gaia's Wrath, sending the Mad Immoral into the depths of the earth before erupting like a volcano that dealt massive damage. The Scorpio Valkyrie used Blight, conjuring spine-like vines that absorbed some of the immoral abomination's lifeforce and replaced it with poison to prolong the infection. The Cancer Valkyrie unleashed Big Bang, unleashing impacted energy claws from mid-air to charge up gravity power and slashed at Ultimate Grimhilde. The Libra Valkyrie unleashed Meteor, whereupon she sent two comets from the ends of her scales to the sky to summon a giant meteor. The Aquarius Valkyrie cast Tsunami to douse her enemy. The Taurus Valkyrie cast a Tornado, sending Ultimate Grimhilde into a whirlwind. The Virgo Valkyrie used Eschaton and blasted Ultimate Grimhilde with a ray of Holy-elemental light. The Ophiuchus Valkyrie used Final Eclipse, which ended in a dark matter explosion crashing into Ultimate Grimhilde.
Green Lantern Brunhilde conjured emerald flaming constructs that are launched at Ultimate Grimhilde. Sinestro Corp Mist created a yellow sword construct and slashed at Ultimate Grimhilde with it. Both Indigo Tribe Skogul and Geirskogul used their staffs to fire indigo temporal beams at Ultimate Grimhilde. Orange Lantern Rota summoned orange Ghostbuster constructs, which swarmed around their target to distract and fired blasts at Ultimate Grimhilde. Star Sapphire Sigrun unleashed a pink thunderstorm, sending lightning strikes at Ultimate Grimhilde. Red Lantern Reginleif powered up in blazing heat and unleashed a red firestorm to burn Ultimate Grimhilde.
Blue Lantern Geiravor turned into a Whale shark and unleashed a blue tidal wave construct that slammed into Ultimate Grimhilde. Then, Blue Lantern Geiravor became a Blue glaucus and spread blue particles from her body to hit her target. White Lantern Gondul became a White tiger, slammed into Ultimate Grimhilde, and slashed her with claw strikes. The White Lantern became an Archaeopteryx and sent white light from her feathers to disorient and lower down Ultimate Grimhilde's defenses.
Black Lantern Skuld flew and viciously slashed at Ultimate Grimhilde with Nekron's scythe. Then, she unleashed black chains that ensnared the immoral abomination's body and fired black deathly spheres into her. Ultimate Grimhilde cried out in anger while taking damage.
"Come forth!" Black Lantern Skuld cried out.
Nekron's daughter then summoned Black Lantern versions of Starscream (Transformers Animated) and Dracula's Brides (Aleera, Verona, and Marishka from Van Helsing). Starscream fired missiles that impacted Ultimate Grimhilde's body. Dracula's Brides turned into their demonic harpy forms and flew around Ultimate Grimhilde to disorient the immoral abomination. Verona unleashed a banshee scream to lower down Ultimate Grimhilde's defenses. Aleera flew over to bite down on Ultimate Grimhilde to drain her life force, and Marishka slashed at one of Ultimate Grimhilde's body parts with her claws. Black Lantern Skuld backed up her zombies by unleashing more deathly spheres at Ultimate Grimhilde.
R. Homura flew around evading every single of Ultimate Grimhilde's tendrils from her body. The Rebellious Magical Girl easily cleaved them all with her dual void swords. Backing her up is Sailor Spirit, who used her Zodiac Spear to slash apart more tendrils.
Growing irritated by the various attacks from her enemies, Ultimate Grimhilde opened her mouth and prepared to fire her Immorapocalypse. Streams of green and black lights came shooting out of Ultimate Grimhilde's mouth as she obliterated sections of Downtown San Antonio, including the carny and Ripley's Believe or Not attractions away from the Alamo. A beam blasted and destroyed the Tower of Americas. More beams headed even as far as outside the downtown area. Many areas were quickly wiped off the map, including the Witte Museum.
Sailor Spirit yelled out. "At the rate, she's sending those blasts, there won't be anything left of this city!"
R. Homura gritted. "She can destroy more than this city. She's just toying with us!"
Tempus Pluto (Corner) expressed her disdain for the Immoral One. "She's beyond reasoning."
Takeru Cage scanned the devastation caused by Ultimate Grimhilde. He scowled angrily knowing this is his creator's hometown.
Tabaga reassured Takeru. "Don't worry. We're not letting her get off easy after we're done with her."
Moon/Cosmos Aspect (Corner) added. "We should be thankful the citizens were able to escape."
Ultimate Grimhilde cackled with sheer pleasure. "WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE DEVASTATION?! IT'S LOVELY, DON'T YOU THINK?!"
Neo Frigg snapped. "No!" With a swing of her sword, she sent a wave of white light that carved out a giant slash mark on Ultimate Grimhilde's body. "This is going to stop one way or another, Grimhilde!"
Silver Brunhilde (Corner) and Mist (Corner) joined with Neo Frigg as they led the charge against Ultimate Grimhilde again.

Super Golden Kirin, Kotori & MetalSeadramon (Youko-Earth), the Valkyrie Rangers, Mist Repulsa, the Sailor Maidens, Göndul (Les) & Skögul (Les), Ford (Corner), Akane Tsunemori, the other One-Punch Man characters, My Hero Academia characters, Kratos & Atreus, Negro Freeza, Omnimon Merciful Mode & Adventure tri./canon Digidestined, Jesmon & Taiyou, and Ritsu are up against Ultimate Grimhilde's army. In the background, Skuld (Corner)'s undead army is seen engulfing a lot of Mistruxes.
A flock of Suzaists, Byakists, Seirists, and Genbists battle Super Golden Kirin, Sailor Suzaku, Sailor Seiryuu, Sailor Genbu, and Sailor Byakko.
"Here it comes!" Super Golden Kirin exclaimed as it unleashed a divine force, clearing out the Mistruxes.
Sailor Suzaku backed the Kirin up by firing her flaming arrows at the Suzaists. Sailor Seiryuu unleashed a vortex of water to engulf and wipe out the Seirists. Sailor Genbu cast an earthly turtle shield protecting Sailor Byakko from a Genbist. Sailor Byakko boosted her speed and unleashed swift, metallic claw strikes, slashing up a few Byakkists and Genbists. MetalSeadramon (Youko-Earth) assists them by firing his River of Power at a Seirist.
Uraraka used her gravity Quirk to lift a bunch of Mistruxes above the sky. Taking advantage of this, the other My Hero Academia characters attacked. Bakugou wildly yelled out and fired his explosive Quirk to destroy the clones. Todoroki unleashed both his ice and fire Quirks to wipe out more Mistruxes. Tenya used his speed to take out a few. Shigaraki used his decay Quirk to dissolve a few clones. All Might used his strength to take out some. Finally, Izuku unleashed his One For All: Full Cowl, and used both his speed and strength to take out Mistruxes with his lightning-like fists.
Genos and Boros are seen taking down Immoral Valkyries and Dea Mists. Tatsumaki used her psychokinesis in wiping out a few Caladrists, one Dea Mist, and one Mistzilla.
Ford (Corner) took down a few Mist clones. Kratos used his Leviathan axe to slash one Mist clone and tossed the axe like a boomerang to kill more Mistruxes before he retrieved his weapon. Atreus shot his arrows at a few Caladrists and Babists. Akane and Ritsu shoot down Mist clones and Babists with their Dominator guns at full force, making the clones explode. Jesmon used Judgement of the Blade to wipe out a flock of Caladrists. Omnimon MM slashed down a Dea Mist before he fired his cannon to obliterate it.
Negro Freeza powered up to Golden Negro Freeza.
"Imma whoop all yo asses." Golden Negro Freeza crudely declared.
The coldest motherfucker in the neighborhood fired his Death Beams at the Mistruxes' torsos and killed them. He then grabbed a Mistberus, slammed it to the ground, stomped its middle head to brutally crushed it and fired the other heads to finish it off. A Transmogrified Mist sneaked behind Golden Negro Freeza, but he easily sensed it coming and used his 'tail' to slap Transmogrified Mist to the ground. Golden Negro Freeza pinned down the Transmogrified Mist with his foot and used his 'tail' to make the Mistrux his bitch.
The Valkyrie Rangers' Zords combine to form the Aesirzord (Grani forms the body and head, Huginn forms the wings, Tanngrisnir forms the legs, Garm forms the right arm, and Geri forms the left arm).
"Alright, Rangers! Let's take'em down!" Brunhilde Ranger encouraged.
The Aesirzord charged and attacked with fisticuffs against a Mistzilla. The Mistzilla fired an Immoral Atomic Breath at the Aesirzord, but the robot dodged and punched the Mistzilla's face before sending lasers from its Garm and Geri hands to obliterate the Mistzilla.
Mist Repulsa let out a corny laugh, "Don't forget me joining the fun, Rangers!"
Then, Mist Repulsa fired her magic at the Mist clones and one Transmogrified Mist to take them out.
Skögul (Les) used her spells in a more elegant manner killing Mistruxes while riding on Göndul (Les), who already turned into an Andalusian horse.
"Let's show them what we can do, my man!" Skögul (Les) gave an opulent smile.
Göndul (Les) nodded, "You bet, my love!"
Then, Skögul (Les) got off from the horse as she fired more elegant magic killing more of her enemies. Göndul (Les) became a Honeybadger and mauled down one Mist clone. Then, Göndul (Les) became a Gorgosaurus as she tail slapped the Babists and Dai-Valkyrie Mists, while she bit down on an Immoral Valkyrie before throwing it aside.
Sailor Gondul became a Minotaur and pierced a Mistberus with her horns before throwing it through a car. A few Caladrists flew towards her. Sailor Sigrun backed her teammate by unleashing lightning akin to Sailor Jupiter's to zap the flying Mistruxes. Sailor Gondul became a Griffin as she flew in and slashed at her enemies. A few Mistkurokubi appeared. Sailor Skogul and Sailor Skuld unleashed their time and dark magic to destroyed some. Sailor Gondul became a Unicorn and fired a white beam from her horn to destroy one Mistkurokubi. Sailor Brunhilde and Tuxedo Siegfried as a battle couple slew Dai-Valkyrie Mists and Immoral Valkyrie clones.

(Cue Final Fantasy XV: Royal Edition OST - Fierce & Rogue)
The four sets of Valkyries (Corner), Erinyes (Corner), the Neo Valkyries (Corner), and the Genderbent Valkyries are in the middle of their fights against the Keres.
Sigrun (Corner), Reginleif (Corner), Courage Sigrun, and Genderbent Sigrun are fighting Gullveig.
Gullveig flapped avian-like magic wings, sending a gust of dark tornado at her four oppositions.
"Look out!" Genderbent Sigrun called out.
The four barely evaded the wind attacks. Sigrun (Corner) shot lightning from Mjolnir while Genderbent Sigrun fired lightning bolts from his pistol. They did little damage to Gullveig. But, they provide a brief distraction as Reginleif and Courage Sigrun charged with a melee assault. Reginleif slashed at the familiar with burning effects from Surtur's sword, while Courage Sigrun gave a Thunderpunch at Gullveig.
Gullveig screeched and unleashed a dark hurricane and hailstorm to engulf her opponents. However, Reginleif unleashed a drought to dissolve the hailstorm. Sigrun (Corner) unleashed a thunderstorm to withstand Gullveig's hurricane. Courage Sigrun dove through like a surfer, finding an opening and hitting Gullveig with a Thunder Rocket Launcher. Gullveig fired a hurricane wave at Courage Sigrun, but Sigrun (Corner) grabbed her daughter and escaped. Genderbent Sigrun fired a gravity sphere from his pistol to dissolve the hurricane. Reginleif took advantage by slashing Gullveig with Surtur's sword and delivered a round of flaming strikes to damage the witch.
Sigrun (Corner) then bashed Gullveig hard with Thor's hammer, sent her soaring to the sky, and delivered a devastating thunderbolt to wipe out Gullveig's existence.
"Woohoo! Alright!" Genderbent Sigrun cheered and hummed the Final Fantasy victory theme.
"Oh, you're having fun with this, aren't you?" Sigrun (Corner) noted her male counterpart's fun personality.

Gondul (Corner), Geiravor (Corner), Justice Gondul, and Genderbent Gondul fought Cruella.
Cruella extended her claws, charging, and delivering physical strikes at her opponents. The four heroes blocked the attacks with their weapons. Justice Gondul briefly became an armadillo and protected herself. Gondul (Corner) parried by using her Tiwaz Spear and delivered a critical blow on Cruella.
Geiravor turned into a Spanish Fighting Bull, charging and hitting Cruella with her horns. Gondul (Corner) turned into a Pteranodon and grabbed Cruella's shoulder, flying to the sky before dropping her. Genderbent Gondul then smacked Cruella with his greatsword while the witch familiar is in mid-air. However, Cruella recovered and summoned a crude-looking prehensile tail from her behind, and prepared for another assault.
"Are you all hanging up there?!" Genderbent Gondul asked his new teammates.
"We're fine! We just need to finish this sooner!" Gondul (Corner) replied to her male counterpart.
Then, Cruella roared and went berserk. She launched shockwave claws and waves at her opponents. All of them evaded the attacks. Genderbent Gondul made his move and delivered an uppercut slash from his greatsword. This was followed by Geiravor, who turned into a Parasaurolophus and headbutted Cruella. Cruella grabbed Geiravor, throwing her in front of Genderbent Gondul. Justice Gondul as a Fossa pounced on Cruella's head and delivered slashes at her. Gondul (Corner) as an Entelodon bashed at Cruella's chest. Geiravor recovered by turning into a Hyaenodon and bit down on Cruella's left side of her body, drawing out blood.
Cruella shrieked and sent out another round of claw shockwaves. Her attacks sent Gondul (Corner), Geiravor, and Justice Gondul flying. However, Justice Gondul quickly turned into an electric eel and landed on Cruella, giving her a powerful electric shock. Cruella cried out in pain and tossed Justice Gondul out, only for the paralysis effect to stun the witch familiar. Gondul (Corner) quickly got up and turned into a Brachiosaurus, lifting her front legs and stomped down on the weakened Cruella. Finally, Gondul (Corner) turned to normal and fired a Light Spear Storm, completely obliterated the witch out of existence.
"Not bad, you three," Genderbent Gondul nodded with his arms crossed.
"Likewise to you as well," Gondul (Corner) nodded back with gratitude.
"Yeah, at least that familiar is taken care of," Justice Gondul stated.
xxxxx
Skogul (Corner), Geirskogul (Corner), Prudence Skogul, and Genderbent Skogul engaged Volva.
Levitating to mid-air, Volva boosted herself with a magic veil surrounding her and cast pale energy columns at her opponents. The four heroes cast magic barriers to attempt to protect themselves. Despite their defenses, they took some damage from Volva's assault. The four backed off to regroup.
"Great. Now we're reminded why the Grimhilde of YYGDM-01 was inspired by Volva to name her familiar after her," Skogul (Corner) gritted.
"Yeah, from what I already learned you, mom, Volva doesn't even exist in the Cornerverse," Prudence Skogul commented.
"Perhaps I can help to give you three a brief boost," Genderbent Skogul offered as he used Enchantment by giving magic flasks to his three new teammates in order to withstand the witch's magic for a few seconds.
"Now, we can handle her better," Geirskogul thanked the new ally.
"No time to waste, she's about to strike us fast," Skogul (Corner) warned as she saw Volva heading for another attack.
Volva cast more energy columns. This time, they moved around to follow their targets as they devastated the area. The heroes evaded the dark magic thanks to Genderbent Skogul's assistance. Genderbent Skogul fired magic dagger projectiles to hit Volva. Volva responded by firing a magic beam, but Genderbent Skogul dodge rolled to evade. Geirskogul fired an antimatter sphere at Volva. Volva attempted to reflect it back, but Skogul (Corner) conjured a temporal wormhole that redirected the sphere at Volva, which hit her back. This was followed by Prudence Skogul striking Volva with her spear-like staff and fired her Horned Serpent beam in close range to damage Volva.
As Volva backed off and was about to unleash another assault, both Skogul (Corner) and Geirskogul (Corner) in synch quickly drove down their Quern-biter and Anti Quern-biter blades through Volva's chest and heart. Then, both maidens sent essences of temporal and antimatter that dissolved Volva on the inside, which wiped out the witch familiar's existence.
"Marvelous," Genderbent Skogul gave his courtesy at the Maidens' abilities against the familiar they were permanently slain.
Skogul (Corner) sensed that Volva is already gone, "It's over. Now that remains is the source of it all."
xxxxx
Skuld (Corner), Rota (Corner), Temperance Skuld, and Genderbent Brunhilde fought Malefiolent.
Malefiolent fired mid-air venomous flaming spikes at her opponents. However, the four fighters easily evaded the projectiles. Skuld (Corner) and Rota double teamed and delivered slashes at Malefiolent. Malefiolent summoned a venomous flaming blade to strike, but Genderbent Brunhilde stepped in to block the blade with his sword. This was followed by Temperance Skuld firing green fireballs that struck Malefiolent, causing her to back off a few inches.
"Really, is that all you got?" Genderbent Brunhilde groaned at Malefiolent's first round of reactions.
In response to this, Malefiolent became a black and purple centipede with dragon wings and horns while retaining her own face. Malefiolent breathed lime green flames imbued with venom drench. Malefiolent let out an eldritch screech.
"This seriously does remind me of Maleficent, except she's added an insect flavor to it!" Temperance Skuld cried out.
"Feh. That makes no difference, we just got to slice her apart!" Skuld (Corner) grinned, readying her scythe.
Malefiolent then fired more venomous flames at her opponents. Skuld (Corner) twirled her scythe to dissolve the flames. Genderbent Brunhilde and Rota initiated the offensive by using their swords to slash the centipede's body. Malefiolent responded by slashing them both with her insectoid legs. Then, Malefiolent summoned venomous will-o-wisps, sending the ember projectiles at them both. Rota and Genderbent Brunhilde evaded the embers, but they are homing projectiles that came for them. Just then, Temperance Skuld cast two firewalls, protecting her two allies by dissolving the embers.
Wasting no time, Skuld (Corner) charged at Malefiolent and pierced her underbelly with her scythe. Malefiolent cried out in pain as she spewed out venomous flames at Skuld (Corner), but Skuld (Corner) healed herself with her own Niflheim flames and used her scythe to slash apart the centipede many times to pieces. Then, drawing out the powers of Helragna, Skuld (Corner) fired a dark sphere, engulfing Malefiolent's body and soul, resulting the Ker's existence being wiped out.
"That'll wipe the fucking creepy crawly out of our faces," Skuld (Corner) gave a malicious grin.
"Yeah… you really are creeping me out here," Genderbent Brunhilde backed away a bit.
"Don't mind about my mother's inner personality," Temperance Skuld reassured the male version of Brunhilde.

Dimension: Character Corner/The Alamo/San Antonio/Texas, United States
(Cue Blooming Villain (Atlus Konishi Remix) - Persona 5: Dancing Star Night)
On the eastern side outside the Alamo, Fox, Oracle, Hifumi, and Yakumo faced Shadow Madarame.
Shadow Madarame snarled. "Yusuke, you'll pay with your life for calling me a plagiarist. For betraying me, I'll take Sayuri from you."
Fox angrily rebuked. "You won't! It ends for you, creature!"
Shadow Madarame took out three scrolls, which he unwrapped and smoke came pouring out. Out from this smoke are three white Fox Spirits.
"Those three Fox Spirits should be a piece of cake, but still don't let your guards down!" Oracle announced, proceeding to summon her Ultimate Persona: Prometheus. Oracle got inside Prometheus and used it to boost her team's defenses and power stats. "All set and ready to go! Take them down, guys!"
Fox took out his katana. Hifumi summoned both her spear and spirit, Janomecho. Janomecho resonated with Hifumi, augmenting the Shogi player's power. Yakumo brought out a giant sword twice as large as his own body.
One of the white Fox Spirits shot straight at Hifumi first, attempting to take out the supposed weakest member of the team. However, Fox intercepted the Fox Spirit with his katana.
"Thank you, Yusuke!" Hifumi gratefully said to her former classmate.
"Foul beast, you dishonor the name of a fox by being controlled by that creature in human skin!" Fox gritted as he shoved his katana through the white Fox Spirit. He sliced upward and killed it instantaneously as it dissolved into black smoke.
Yakumo rushed the second Fox Spirit, which flew around and expelled black beams. Yakumo waved his sword and knocked away the fox's blasts. Yakumo jumped up and bisected the Fox Spirit, causing it to split and dissolve away.
Hifumi declared. "Now be gone, tainted spirit!" With that, the Shogi player tossed her spear at the third Fox Spirit. The Fox Spirit dodged the spear. As it flew straight at Hifumi, the Shogi player beckoned the spear back as the weapon turned and cut through the Fox Spirit's backside.
After the last Fox Spirit dissolved, Shadow Madarame hastily summoned his four portraits: the eyes, the mouth, and the nose.
"Do you not remember this masterpiece of mine, Yusuke? Let's see if your Persona can topple this!" Shadow Madarame boasted over his artistic work.
"Heh, I've come very far since the last we've fought, creature. My Ultimate Persona shall bring down this mediocrity!" Fox declared as he summoned forth his Ultimate Persona: Kamu Susano-o.
Kamu Susano-o brandished its sword and attacked Shadow Madarame's left eye first. The left Painter's Eye tried for a Tarukaja, but Kamu Susano-o unleashed a Giant Slice and took out the left eye. Yakumo charged and slashed off the left Painter's Eye. The Painter's Nose fired Thunderclap to neutralize Yakumo and then used Maelstrom to knock back Fox.
"Yusuke! Yakumo!" Hifumi cried out as she stared in horror at Shadow Madarame, who callously laughed over his enemies' anguish. "I can see why Yusuke lost respect for you!"
"Hang on, Inari! Help's on the way!" Oracle called to Fox. "You, too, Yakumo!" She boosted their energies back up to fight again.
"Thanks, Futaba," Fox said, feeling recovered after accepting Oracle's healing boost. "All right, Kamu Susano-o, we're still in this fight!"
Yakumo stood while lifting up his sword. "Let us commence with the battle."
"Attack the nose, Kamu Susano-o!" Fox beckoned his Persona.
Heeding his summoner's command, Kamu Susano-o took out the Painter's Nose with a Vicious Strike. Yakumo charged and went for the Painter's Mouth. The Mouth went for a Bite, but Hifumi countered and summoned a Shogi-like piece that blocked the Mouth off. Yakumo used this to advantage and slashed the Painter's Mouth in two.
With the portraits taken out, Shadow Madarame was exposed.
"You've been left wide open, 'sensei'," Fox remarked.
"All-out Attack!" Oracle declared.
Fox, Hifumi, and Yakumo went for the decisive blow to Shadow Madarame. Like ninjas, they hit lightning fast strikes all over Shadow Madarame, who failed to keep up. As they finished their attack, Shadow Madarame doubled over in pain and cursed under his breath.
"Damn you… brats… this isn't over…"
Fox pointed his katana toward Shadow Madarame. "It's over, creature. Cease any more attempts to attack us and fade away."
Shadow Madarame conceded. "Well done… you've far surpassed me as an artist, Yusuke…" He dropped to a knee and dissolved into black dust.
Fox frowned and turned away.
"Yusuke?" Hifumi approached.
"Futaba, we're ready to relocate and find the others," Fox said.
Oracle chimed in through Prometheus. "Sure, no problem! Now let's see who's closest near us."
"Come, Hifumi. Let's see if Sion and the others need our help."
"You're right, Yusuke. I am worried about Sion," Hifumi said. "I hope he's doing ok along with the others."
"Guys, I've found the closest group to us. It's Joker's!" Oracle announced.
"If he's there, then Sion is, too. Please, Futaba. Send me to where Joker's party are!" Hifumi requested to go where Sion is currently located.

On the southern side outside the Alamo, Yumeko, Noir, and Louis faced Shadow Kaneshiro piloting his Piggytron. Two Red Kappas and one blue-skinned Yoki wielding a kusarigama and a cannon are summoned.
Noir attacked the first Red Kappa and took it out with Psiodyne. Louis unleashed a wave of flames that obliterated the other Red Kappa. Yumeko summoned the spirit of the Nine-Tails and launched fiery blasts that weakened the blue-skinned Yoki. The Yoki fired his cannon, forcing the trio to dodge. The trio retaliated and unleashed an All-out Attack on the Yoki.
After taking out the demons, the trio turned their attention toward Shadow Kaneshiro.
"Time for yo asses to get steamrolled over by my Piggytron!" Shadow Kaneshiro roared, declaring a messy execution on the heroes. He activated Piggytron and sent it rolling like a giant boulder.
Yumeko, Noir, and Louis quickly evaded Piggytron. Piggytron aimed and fired Ocular Vulcan at the trio. Louis stepped in front of Noir and took a full shot from Piggytron.
"Shit yeah! Bull's eye! Ahahah!" Shadow Kaneshiro laughed.
"Louis!" Noir called out as she tended to him.
"Hey, you giant talking porkchop! Over here!" Yumeko goaded Shadow Kaneshiro's mechanized piggy bank. "Why don't ya get a piece of me?!" Her eyes glowed red like a demon's. "So you're Kaneshiro?! Why don't we have some fun gambling with our lives!"
Shadow Kaneshiro balked at Yumeko's psychotic demeanor. "...the fuck is wrong with yeh?!"
"Let's see which of our beasts is better? Your piggy wiggy or my Nine-Tailed foxy!" The Compulsive Gambler shouted, raising both hands into the air as her Nine-Tailed Fox spirit appeared.
"Feh, I'm supposed to be scared of that shit?! Ok, now Imma roll yeh asses over! Go forth Piggytron!" Shadow Kaneshiro shouted.
Grinning fiendishly, Yumeko openly invited Piggytron to come toward her.
As Noir helped Louis up, they watched in despair as Yumeko and the Nine-Tails didn't budge from their spot.
"Yumeko! Move out of the way!" Noir cried out to her.
"We've got to get in there!" Louis said as he summoned a sword. He swung it hard and sent a fiery wave that created a wall of flames that stopped Piggytron.
"What the shit?!" Shadow Kaneshiro grimaced as the wall of flames pushed Piggytron back.
Noir summoned her Ultimate Persona: Astarte. Astarte cast One-shot Kill and blasted Piggytron. Piggytron unleashed Missile Party on the group. Yumeko's Nine-Tails rushed Piggytron head-on and swung down its tails. Yumeko's Nine Tails and Louis combined their flamed attacks, unleashing a powerful wave of flames that pushed against Piggytron.
Noir eyed Shadow Kaneshiro standing atop Piggytron and recalled how her fellow Thieves beat him.
"Yes, I know what to do," Noir realized as she beckoned Astarte to attack Shadow Kaneshiro.
"Oh shit!" Shadow Kaneshiro blanched as Noir figured out his Piggytron's flaw. He prepared to jump off, but Yumeko conjured flames from her Nine Tails and prevented Shadow Kaneshiro from escaping.
Yumeko cackled sadistically, her face contorted with twisted pleasure. Her red eyes gleamed with sheer pleasure at Shadow Kaneshiro's predicament.
"Aww, what's wrong piggy wiggy? Afraid of becoming roast pig?! Or, maybe bacon?!" The Compulsive Gambler squeed with pleasure. She swung the tails from her back, sending fiery blasts at Shadow Kenshiro. "Now squeal! SQUEAL, PIGGY WIGGY!"
"YOU CRAZY BITCH!" Shadow Kaneshiro squealed like the pig Yumeko wanted.
"AHAHAHAH! THAT'S RIGHT! SQUEAL FOR ME!" Yumeko maniacally laughed, seemingly enjoying Shadow Kaneshiro's panicked state.
As Astarte slammed into Piggytron, the force knocked Shadow Kaneshiro off his mechanized pig tank. Then, the group unleashed an All-out Attack and quickly took down the Piggytron. As Shadow Kaneshiro rose, he came face to face with Yumeko, who stood over him with a crazed look scared the wits out of the flyman.
"You've gambled with the wrong player, flyboy," Yumeko knelt down; her red eyes stared into Shadow Kaneshiro's frightened eyeballs.
Shadow Kaneshiro quickly backed off as Yumeko prepared to blast him with flames. Shadow Kaneshiro turned to run away, but Yumeko's Nine-Tails fired blasts that obliterated him.
"Game over, piggy," Yumeko purred with delight. She turned around, giving a cat-like face that creeped out Noir and Louis. "Well, we're done here! Let's look for Sion and Hifumi!"
Noir chuckled nervously. "Yes, let's go and find them, won't we?"
Louis nodded. "Yeah, let's do that." He turned to Noir, who giggled and blushed while looking at him. "Hmm?"
"Come. Let's find the others," Noir suggested as she, Yumeko, and Louis left to find their friends.

On the northern side outside of the Alamo, Panther, Skull, Mona, and Mia faced Shadow Kamoshida. Behind their foe are two Namahage wielding dual hatchets, but they are dark gray-skinned and lacked the straw capes from their blue-skinned variants.
Panther and Skull teamed up against the first Namahage. Mona and Mia went against the other one.
"Take 'em down, guys!" Mona shouted.
Mia manifested a long scorpion-like tail, which is her Type Stinger Blood Veil. She dodged the Namahage's attack and shot her tail forward, stabbing the Namahage's neck.
"Whoa, nice! Keep him neutralized, Mia!" Mona cried out, taking out and piercing the Namahage with his scimitar.
The anthropomorphic cat then slashed upward and cut through the Namahage.
"Here I go!" Mia shouted, wrapping her scorpion-like tail around the Namahage's neck and snapping it. She then manifested a bayonet doubling as a rifle and blasted the Namahage's face with it. She fired a few more shots into the Namahage.
Mona then used his scimitar to stab the Namahage's neck, delivering the killing blow.
"Nice work, Mona!" Mia cheered him.
Mona proudly took in the praise. "Heh, isn't it almost scary how good I am?!"
Mia blinked, unable to hear him between all the fighting going on. "What did you say?!"
Mona sighed. "Nothing."
Mona and Mia watched Panther and Skull taking it to the other Namahage. Panther and Skull utilized their weapons with precision and struck the Namahage's critical points. The Namahage tried fighting back. Panther cast fire magic to wear the Namahage down. This allowed Skull to use Charge to boost his physical attacks. Skull clobbered the Namahage until it collapsed. As they rejoined Mona and Mia, the two Phantom Thieves made short work of the Namahage.
Shadow Kamoshida stepped forward to confront the three Phantom Thieves and the female Revenant.
"I'd give my congratulations taking out my servants, but they were fodder. Now you face a real challenge!" Shadow Kamoshida gave a sick smile, turning his sights on Panther and Skull. "Oh yeah, I'm gonna make short work of you two especially."
Skull scoffed. "Why don't ya bite me, asshole?!"
Panther scowled. "I'm so ending you and afterward hope to never see your face!"
Mona warned. "Be careful, just because we're stronger than he doesn't mean he hasn't found a new trick or two up his sleeve."
Shadow Kamoshida cackled. "Let's see if you remember this!" He quickly transformed into his giant Asmodeus form.
"Ugh, I definitely remember blocking this disgusting form out of my mind," Panther squicked at Shadow Kamoshida's disgusting giant form.
"Get ready! He's coming at us!" Mona called out.
Shadow Kamoshida launched his first attack: Volleyball Assault. The four heroes evaded Shadow Kamoshida's attack. Mia shot her metallic stinger at Shadow Kamoshida, who countered with Golden Knife. Mia was knocked away and injured by Shadow Kamoshida.
In response to Shadow Kamoshida going giant, Panther, Skull, and Mona summoned their Ultimate Personas: Hecate, Seiten Taisei, and Mercurius.
"Heal her, Hecate!" Panther beckoned her Persona to use Dia to heal Mia.
"Thanks!" Mia said.
"Take this, asshole!" Skull yelled out as Seitei Taisei executed Lunge and blasted Shadow Kamoshida with Ziodyne.
Mona quickly sent Mercurius used Garudyne to critically damage Shadow Kamoshida.
"Damn you! Now, I'm gonna lick y'all to death!" Shadow Kamoshida shot out his big tongue, which Mia then responded by intercepting and shooting her long metallic stinger.
As the stinger pierced the creature's tongue, Mia pulled and ripped it out with force. Shadow Kamoshida wailed loudly in pain as blood squirted out from his torn tongue.
"Ugh, gross," Panther squicked.
"Quick before he recovers! All-out Attack!" Mona shouted.
The four quickly struck Shadow Kamoshida hard with their All-Out Attack. While doing so, Mona knocked off the 'King's' crown. Shadow Kamoshida then collapsed and shrank down to normal.
"There's so many ways I want to pay you back for all you've done, but you're not worth it," Panther said to the Shadow.
"Yep, remember this ass whoopin' we gave you," Skull scoffed.
Shadow Kamoshida lowered his head and conceded in defeat. His body quickly dissolved to black dust.
"We need to get moving, guys. Who knows if the others are still caught up in their battles with the other Shadows," Mona said.
"Lead the way, Mona," Mia nodded.

(Cue Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance OST - It Has To Be This Way)
On the western side outside of the Alamo, Joker, Sion, Queen, and Crow faced Shadow Shido. Shadow Shido already transformed into his initial Samael form. The general uniformed man managed to withstand attacks from the group. Joker's Horus Persona was taken out rather quickly by Shadow Shido.
Queen and Sion both rushed Shadow Shido. Shadow Shido threw a big punch at them. Queen and Sion evaded Shadow Shido. Queen landed a flurry of punches all over Shadow Shido. She then kicked him. Sion jumped over and landed behind Shadow Shido. Sion unleashed a heavy punch into Shadow Shido's back. Shadow Shido attempted to grab them, but Queen and Sion sprang back evading his reach.
As they faced off against Shadow Shido, Queen and Sion both panted hard.
Sion sardonically teased. "What's wrong? Feeling tuckered out, 'Queen' Badass?"
Queen smirked as she dryly replied. "Hey, you're panting, too. Don't act high and mighty."
Shadow Shido chortled, eyeing Joker first. "How appropriate we face each other again, Amamiya Ren." He veered to each party member. "But you four are way over your heads if you think you can best me."
Queen fiercely retorted. "You love hearing yourself talk, don't you?"
"Well, what are you waiting for? Come at me again if you can!" Shadow Shido beckoned them to attack. "Perhaps you!" He quickly shifted his focus toward Sion and headed him off with a Tyrant's Fist.
"Sion, look out!" Joker called out as he hastily sent his Seth Persona to stop Shadow Shido.
Seeing Seth heading toward him, Shadow Shido turned his Tyrant's Fist on Joker's Persona and blasted it into bits. Sion seized advantage of this quick distraction and lunged forward, landing a straight cross to Shadow Shido's face. The impact of Sion's fist cracked open Shadow Shido's horned helmet. Shadow Shido snarled and went for a Tyrant's Fist, but Crow sent his Robin Hood Persona to attack Shadow Shido with Megidola. Shadow Shido punched Crow's Persona and knocked it down.
As Shadow Shido turned, Sion punched his chest and broke his armor. Shadow Shido went for a Tyrant's Fist. Sion dodged and punched him. Shadow Shido crossed both arms, taking Sion's punch. Shadow Shido quickly ripped up chunks of concrete from the ground and jumped up, throwing the chunks of debris at Sion. Sion zipped away avoiding getting crushed by the debris. He grabbed another pile of debris he ripped off the ground and tossed it at Sion. Sion jumped up to catch and fired a blast that obliterated the giant ball of debris.
Shadow Shido grinned evilly. "I commend you, boy." He addressed Sion, who held his ground against him. "You're able to hold your own against me, but…" He focused hard as a bright aura engulfed him, changing him into his True Samael form.
As Shadow Shido prepared to attack, a white ray of light slammed into the earth. Everyone paused and turned toward the light as Hifumi emerged with Janomecho.
"Hifumi!" Joker yelled.
Sion turned toward the Shogi player. "How did you get here and find us?"
"You can thank Futaba-chan," Hifumi replied. "I'm thankful to see you're ok, Sion."
Shadow Shido scoffed, scanning each of party member. "Hmph, another challenger steps forward?" He eyed Sion, Joker, and Hifumi. "This should be quite interesting. I wonder what will happen when a dinosaur, a hydra, and a moth fights a lion like myself."
"You've talked enough," Joker scoffed, summoning Ultimate Persona: Satanael.
Hifumi prepared Janomecho for battle against an actual challenging boss unlike the Yokais she's been dealing with. Queen summoned her Ultimate Persona: Anat. The Anat Persona then alternated into motorcycle mode for Queen to ride on. Crow readied Robin Hood.
"It's time we put an end to this farce of a battle!" Shadow Shido roared and unleashed Maragidyne. He cast flames that caused the group to spread out. He turned to his right and fired a Maziodyne at Queen, who dodged by riding away on Anat. "Hold still!" He spun around and fired Mabufudyne, sending ice blasts at Crow, who ended up getting caught in the ice. "Heh, one down." He turned and unleashed Magarudyne, utilizing a powerful wind attack that knocked Queen and Anat back. He swiftly rushed toward Queen and went for a Tyrant's Fist.
Just then, Sion ran up behind and elbowed Shadow Shido's back. Shadow Shido turned around and blasted Sion back with Deathbound.
"Sion!" Hifumi cried out as she resonated with Janomecho. She conjured her spear and charged toward Shadow Shido.
Shadow Shido lobbed Mabufudyne ice blasts at Hifumi, who elegantly dodged every attack coming her way. Hifumi jumped over a fiery blast cast by True Samael. Hifumi swung down her spear hard enough to send a wind attack, which dealt some damage to Shadow Shido. However, True Samael reached out and grabbed Hifumi's spear, tugging her forward.
"HIFUMI!" Joker and Sion yelled out together.
As Joker sent Satanael to save Hifumi, Sion already beat the Phantom Thief leader to the punch. The Revenant hit Shadow Shido with a shoulder tackle, forcing him to let Hifumi go. Shadow Shido seized Sion's arm. A twisted grin adorned Shadow Shido's face.
"There's absolutely no way I'll lose to a freak like you!" Shadow Shido gnashed his teeth hard.
Making the save, Hifumi raised her spear and summoned Shogi-like pieces. The pieces formed a circle around Shadow Shido and closed him in. Shadow Shido turned around, shooting an incensed glare toward Hifumi. Not one to be deterred by the enemy's gaze, Hifumi activated her Shogi pieces' secondary ability. The pieces formed and unleashed a tornado-like vortex that dealt continuous damage to Shadow Shido.
As the pieces vanished, Shadow Shido stumbled around looking worse for wear. Queen drove Anat toward Shadow Shido and blasted him with Mafreila. Following Queen's attack, Joker sent Satanael. Satanael fired Riot Gun, taking out a huge chunk of Shadow Shido's health. Shadow Shido stumbled back disoriented from their attacks.
Hifumi used Janomecho's spiritual essence to break Crow out of his ice imprisonment.
"I think we got him, Hifumi," Sion said.
"That's good," Hifumi nodded.
Shadow Shido's body started to break down and shrink, losing most of his muscular mass. The last shot from Satanael dealt a critical blow to him. He panted hard as his adversaries crowded near him.
"Consider this victory, however small… yours…" Shadow Shido chortled darkly. "But remember… the entity with the power akin to Yaldabaoth awaits you out there…"
Joker demanded. "Who is he?"
Queen frowned. "Or, what is it?"
"You'll find out in due time, Phantom Thieves… enjoy this victory of yours…" Shadow Shido smirked. "All I can say is his personality and viewpoints are similar to my own… perhaps you'll learn a thing or two from him better than from me."
Crow muttered. "What?"
After leaving his last vague message, Shadow Shido's body dissolved into black dust. The last of the four Shadows ceased completely, leaving Joker and his cohorts to speculate over Shadow Shido's warning about another enemy waiting for them in their reality.
Hifumi wondered. "Who is he referring to? Someone we've yet to meet?"
Sion shrugged. "I wish I knew."
Queen deduced. "Someone like Yaldabaoth, but it can't be him? Who else could have a power like that monster?"
Just then, they heard a loud commotion and explosions from within the Alamo. They set their sights toward the location where a battle commenced against Maria.
"We'll think about what Shido said later. There's still one more to deal with," Joker said.

The party members reconvened. Nekomata decided two groups should go into the Alamo to find Maria. Mia, Crow, Skull, Mona, Fox, Oracle, and Yakumo would be one group. Joker would take the lead of Sion, Hifumi, Panther, Queen, Noir, Louis, and Yumeko.
The two large parties went their separate ways.

After scouring through enough of the Alamo's eastern vicinity, Mona's group were the unfortunate ones to find Maria first. Maria stood up and took out her rapier.
"How lucky you've been able to find me, children," Maria chortled. "If you're all here, then you defeated the four Shadows. Congratulations. However, your streak of good luck ends here. By my sword!" She declared.
Mona warned his group. "Don't let your guard's down, everyone."
Nekomata appeared. "Yes, good advice, young kitten. You all may have her outnumbered, but she's single handedly defeated groups stronger than herself."
"Then, she's about to learn we're no pushovers!" Skull boasted.
Oracle summoned Prometheus and entered her Persona.
"Ok, defenses up for everyone!" Oracle announced, powering her team's defenses.
"Oh, I'm sorry, children. I neglected to tell you, but I'm not your opponent," Maria shook her head.
"What?!" Fox exclaimed.
"So, you're going to run away?!" Mona chided her.
"No, but you will be fighting this," Maria raised her rapier as a pillar of blue light materialized behind her. "Come forth Invading Executioner!"
(Cue CRISIS OST - Hiroyuki Sawano - fire9d)
With that, the Spanish woman brought forth a thirteen-foot tall half-naked blue green-skinned female humanoid. The giantess wore revealing black armor that covered half of her body. She wore long greenish blue hair tied in long pigtails. The features of this Lost's face had one yellow right eye. The Lost was seen carrying a giant weapon resembling a scythe.
"Whoa…" Skull gaped in shock at the giantess.
"It's a Lost!" Mia hissed, readying her metallic stinger.
Yakumo growled, instinctively raring to fight and tear the Lost into pieces.
"Whoa! That thing looks like Hatsune Miku!" Oracle observed, taking note of the Invading Executioner's pig-tailed hairstyle being similar to the aforementioned vocaloid.
"Well, a cross between Miku and a stripper model," Fox mentioned.
"I don't know who this Hatsune Miku is, but let's get serious here," Mia suggested.
"Seems your other friends are here, too," Maria sensed the presence of Joker and his party. "I should attend to them now, but have fun with your public Executioner!" With that, she vanished into thin air.
"Hey, get back here!" Skull called out after her, but the Invading Executioner swung down her scythe, cutting him off from the pass. "Shit!"
"Ryuji!" Oracle called out.
"Joker and the others should be able to handle her! Let's focus our resources against this thing!" Mona stated.
"And we're here now to assist," Mia added.
"Get ready because here it comes for an attack!" Fox alarmed them.
The Invading Executioner charged at the group. As it swung down its scythe, Oracle boosted her friends' defenses and speed. They quickly evaded the Executioner's attack. Mona summoned Mercurius and sent his Persona to engage the Invading Executioner. Mercurius landed a Lucky Punch and knocked back the Executioner. The scythe-wielder responded by sliding down on its knees and stabbing Mercurius.
Skull, Fox, and Crow summoned their Ultimate Personas. Skull sent Seiten Taisei, who struck the Executioner with a Swift Strike. Crow's Robin Hood attacked the Executioner, but the scythe-wielding Lost guarded with its weapon. Fox sent Kamu Susano-o to save Robin Hood and dealt a Vicious Strike to the Executioner.
While the four Personas held off the Executioner, Mia and Yakumo went in. The Revenants slashed and blasted at the Lost's tall slender legs. Mia shoved her metallic stinger through the Executioner's right leg, taking it down to one knee. Yakumo's Type Hound Blood Veil manifested into two wolf-like heads that tore into the Executioner. The Executioner quickly slammed her scythe down and jumped up to perform a pole-like dance while spinning and kicking away the Personas, Mia, and Yakumo.
"This is gonna be a problem," Mona said. "Go! All-out Attack!"
The Phantom Thieves swiftly attacked the Executioner. The Executioner swung its scythe again, but was attacked from behind by Yakumo's sword and Mia's stinger. Skull blasted the Executioner with Ziodyne to temporarily stun it. Fox then cast Mabufudyne to freeze and seal the giantess's feet. Unable to move and use another pole dance attack, the Phantom Thieves unleashed another All-out Attack to take down the Executioner.
"Bonafied Mona-fied!" Oracle cried.
"Yep, that'll do," Mona said as the Executioner fell and dissolved.

(Cue Bloodborne DLC OST - Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower)
Joker and his group were surprise attacked by Maria, who came at them fast. The Spanish woman used her rapier to parry and defend herself against the Thieves, the Revenants, and the Compulsive Gambler.
"Not bad. You children fight well, but I will bring you a quick defeat!" Maria declared, readying her next attack.
"Damn, she's fast! I couldn't even keep up!" Panther cursed.
"Indeed, this is going to be problematic for us," Hifumi stated.
"Don't give up," Sion rallied everyone together. "If we can drag this out, she'll tire out and slow down."
Queen ran at Maria. "We're not falling to you!" She roared and punched at Maria, who guarded against Queen's fist with her rapier. Maria shoved Queen back and sent her flying into Sion's arms. "Gee, thanks."
"You're welcome, Makokins."
"That nickname is really going to stick with me, is it?"
Joker took out his Sandhawk and fired at Maria, but the Spanish woman stopped the bullets. She sliced and diced each bullet. Panther used her Electromagnetic whip to catch and stun Maria. Maria dodged the whip. Noir took out and fired with her Replica Revolver. Maria dodged and cut up any bullet coming her way.
"Great, so she dodges bullets. Louis, give me a hand!" Sion yelled as he charged at Maria.
Louis took out his sword and attacked Maria with it. Maria countered with her rapier. Sion quickly came upon Maria's left side and went for a punch. Maria jumped up, avoiding a potentially deadly blow. Maria quickly opened fire from mid-air, causing the two Revenants to move away from the rain of bullets.
Joker summoned his Mother Harlot Persona. As he sent Mother Harlot to attack Maria, the Spanish woman invoked the power of Amrita to stop Mother Harlot from attacking her. She quickly nullified the Persona and phased behind Joker. The Phantom Thief turned to shoot, but Maria slashed at him.
"Joker!" Louis yelled out. He and Sion went to attack Maria again, but she stopped them with Amrita.
"Ren!" Panther headed over and tended to her boyfriend, who covered up the slash wound on his shoulder.
"I'll be ok…"
"Yeah right, you're wounded, Ren!" The red leather garbed catwoman shouted with concern.
"I've got enough to summon another Persona," Joker said as he conjured Cybele.
Queen and Noir backed up Joker's Cybele by summoning their Ultimate Personas. Queen hopped on Anat as it converted into motorbike mode. Noir's Astarte clashed with Maria, who defended with her Amrita.
"Hold on, Ren," Panther said, summoning Hecate and used Diarahan to heal Joker.
"Yeah, that hits the spot. Thanks, Ann."
Meanwhile, Maria fought Cybele and Astarte off. Leaving herself unguarded, Maria was struck by Queen's Anat. Maria flew back and took some damage from Queen's Persona.
"Finally! About time one of us got a hit on her!" Panther yelled out.
"She's getting right up!" Noir pointed out.
Setting her sights on the Spanish woman, Yumeko evilly grinned as her red eyes flared.
"My turn," Yumeko chuckled sadistically.
Then, large black nine-tails burst out behind the gambler and engulfed her for a dark transformation sequence. The dark Yokai energy is cleared and revealed a large black-furred kitsune with red eyes, long white hair, red linings across her black nine tails, thin front arms between her head and front legs, and bearing sharp canine teeth. Yumeko has became a legendary Yokai that Yodo-gimi used back when she fought William and Yukimura, the Nine-Tailed Fox (九尾狐).
The four Phantom Thieves, Hifumi, Sion, and Louis are surprised of seeing this. The Nine-Tailed Fox lets out a loud roar to intimidate the fearless Maria.
"Yumeko…?!" Sion was taken aback by the Compulsive Gambler's Yokai transformation.
"No way, she's actually turned into the Nine-Tailed Fox!" Queen was flabbergasted.
Hifumi watched in shock. "Yumeko… I hope you know what you're going."
"I think we best step back," Panther suggested.
To the surprise of the group, Maria stood calmly and faced off against the Nine-Tailed Fox. The Nine-Tailed Fox roared and charged at Maria. The nine-tailed beast swung its tails and fired red fiery blasts at Maria. The Spanish woman dodged and used her Amrita to defend. The Nine-Tailed Fox's front most tails shot forward and pierced the earth in front of Maria, knocking her back.
Hifumi saw an opening to attack. She summoned Janomecho, which unleashed a wind attack to blow away Maria. The Shogi player didn't stop as she conjured up Shogi pieces that surrounded Maria and trapped her in a tornado-like vortex. Maria was on the receiving end up continuous blows being trapped in the vortex. As the Shogi pieces dispersed, Maria fell out somewhat disoriented.
"Now or never! All-out Attack!" Joker called out as he and the Phantom Thieves quickly pummeled Maria.
After taking an All-out Attack, Sion and Louis took turns punching and slashing Maria. Sion punched Maria back, sending her out of the Alamo.
"Remember the Alamo!" Some bystander yelled out, who slipped away having gotten his five second moment of glory.
"Um, ok?" Queen blinked in confusion. She shrugged. "Eh, who cares."
As Maria stood almost ready to strike back, she found herself surrounded by the Phantom Thieves pointing their guns at her. Sion and Louis stood poised to strike. Hifumi still had Janomecho summoned. Yumeko, who turned back to normal, had her Nine Tails flaring with fiery red lights.

"It's over. Give up," Joker sternly said, preparing to pull his gun's trigger.
Chuckling, Maria raised her hands. "Well done, young heroes. You've won my respect with your tenacity. I concede."
Panther scoffed. "That easily?"
Just then, Nekomata appeared.
"Indeed, my friends. You've shown her that even across time, there are warriors who can hold their ground and last in the battle against her," Nekomata informed the group. "The fact she's conceded is proof you've earned her respect."
Yumeko chuckled. "It has to be because I kicked her butt."
Hifumi sighed. "We all pitched in, Yumeko."
"So, what will you do now?" Sion asked the Spanish woman.
"Seeing I was beaten, I will be taking my leave," Maria stated as a time stream opened up behind her. "Oh, and you'll all be waking up very soon. Consider this a warm-up for the coming battle against the dark entity that brought me here and revived your old enemies." She took off her hat and bowed. "Farewell, my worthy opponents. Should we cross paths again, may our battle be something to be remembered in the history books."
With that, Maria hopped into the time stream and returned to her time.
(Cue Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance Music ~ SOMEDAY -Kingdom Mix-)
"Hey, guys! Looks like y'all totally kicked her ass!" Skull called out from afar.
"Great job, guys!" Mona cried out.
Joker's group immediately reconvened with the others. Sion and Louis regrouped with Mia and Yakumo.
"She said you'd be waking up soon, Sion," Louis reminded him.
"Which means…" Mia realized, looking sad.
"We'll be gone," Yakumo said.
"It was good to see you guys, even if you're just the cognitive versions of my friends," Sion hugged each of them.
Mia smiled softly. "Just think of us again and maybe we'll reappear in your dreams."
"Everyone, this whole place is fading away," Fox looked around as the distorted version of San Antonio turned back to normal.
Each Phantom Thief started to disappear, a sign that they were waking up from their sleep. Sion watched as his Revenant friends vanished.
"We'll see each other again, my friends," Sion said as Hifumi patted his shoulder.
"We're leaving, Sion. Time for us to wake up," the Shogi player whispered.
"Time for us to find the enemy Shido and Maria warned us about," Joker said as he and Mona were the last ones to wake up.
And that ends their side plot story. For more of their adventures, read Persona Vein.

Dimension: DF-616 Prime/Tokyo, Japan (東京都, 日本)
(Cue D.V.M.N - Devilman Crybaby OST)
Back in DF-616 Prime, the war continued despite the Mist clouds endlessly lingering in the atmosphere. It was becoming more of a background nuisance to the warriors than anything downright terrifying.
The Digital Gods of Destruction, the Angel Attendants, the Digi-Mazoku lords, and Lady Moinanea weren't at all amused with the laughing Mist clouds.
Toushinmon grumbled in annoyance. "This pestilence continues to pollute the skies?"
Hadesmon cringed, covering his ears. "As if my hearing wasn't sensitive enough! Urgh!"
Champamon clamped his own ears. "You said it! What a pain!"
Beerusmon scoffed. "Stand back." He fired off a sun-like sphere and tossed it at the Mist clouds. The sphere exploded and did enough to disperse the Mist clouds. "There. It won't destroy them completely, but their annoying laughter should cease for the time being."
Lady Moinanea uncovered her ears. "Much appreciated, Lord Beerusmon."
Whismon sighed. "Oh dear, this is Zamasmon all over again."
Mukuromon pondered. "I wonder how our warriors are doing."
Vadosmon checked her scepter orb, which displayed her and Champamon's Digiverse 6 fighters. "Our fighters are still holding their own and tearing up the Synisters, Lord Champamon."
Champamon pumped his fist and hollered. "Heck yeah! Rip them apart!" The orb then showed Silver Furizlor fighting off Hit the Hitmon, Xander, GokuGreymon, and VegetaGarurumon. "Oooh, I hope that little cockroach Furizlor gets what's coming to him! How dare he betray us!"
Just then, Toushinmon, Mukuromon, Hadesmon, and Lady Moinanea noticed a group of familiar-faced heroes storming out to attack Synisters from proliferating Tokyo.
Mukuromon pointed out her two colleagues to the newcomers. "Have a look, Toushinmon, Hadesmon. Seems the other heroes of this realm have come out of retirement to help in the war."
Hadesmon noticed the newcomers. "Well, this should be interesting."
Lady Moinanea smirked. "Indeed, if there's anything to bring these heroes out, it's an event like this. They'll lend the support to your warrior and ours, Lords Beerusmon and Whismon."
The newcomers that have now joined the fight are DF-616 Prime's Planetary Sailor Senshi (Inners, Outers, Tuxedo Kamen, and Neo Moon), the Spirit Detectives (the central four), and the Duelists (Yugi, Kaiba, Joey, Téa, Tristan, Bakura, Duke, and Mai). Also joining them are DF-616 Prime's other exclusive crossover heroes: an adult Sakura Kinomoto carrying her Clear Cards, Inuyasha with Tessaiga, Tenchi Masaki, and Ryoko Hakubi.
Toushinmon smiled with satisfaction. "Yes, these heroes who've been in seclusion for so long. They've been out of sight for so long… and it appears most haven't aged a day since they've vanished into obscurity." He eyes the DF-616 Prime!Spirit Detectives. "And I know three of them already have demon heritage, especially that man named Yusuke Urameshi. He's already met my Mazoku counterpart, Raizen. I can see the parallels between myself and Raizen clearly."
Suddenly, the Digital Gods of Destruction and their Angel Attendants noticed a dimensional portal opening up in the heart of Tokyo.
"So, it seems they're about to arrive, Lord Beerusmon," Whismon sensed their impending arrival.
"Our YYGDM-01 compatriots are coming here. If that's true, they've dealt the final blow to the Chaos witch and her Millenniummon partner," Beerusmon stated.
"Charon came very close to enveloping the entire omniverse with her dark power, but her own hubris was her own undoing," Whismon said.
"Eh, no itch off my back and good riddance to that Chaos witch. Now we can focus on the enemy that truly matters," the thin purple cat said, keenly observing Zeed X in the far distance. "We're in for one hell of a spectacle with all our team players finally here."
xxxxx
As the dimensional portal opened in the center of Tokyo, the YYGDM-01 heroes and their allies emerged. Among those present: the Planetary Senshi, Madoka, Homura, Volodramon, Gao Pluto, the Duelists, the Spirit Detectives, the Beast Tamers, the Legendary Warriors, and Team Xros Heart.
They were immediately greeted by Zeed X's Army and Synisters.
"Well, well, the welcoming party!" Guilkatomon yelled out, launching a quick Hazard Wave that wiped out a bunch of Black clones and Synisters.
Dai-Valkyrie Moon raced at a few Synisters and slashed each of them with her sword. "Let them have it, guys!"
Madoka and Homura shot down numerous Black clones with a barrage of arrows and automated gunfire.
Yugi invoked Spirit Fusion, transforming into Dark Magician. "My friends, let us send these fiends to oblivion!" He fired multiple dark magic beams and obliterated some Synisters. He watched as Seto and Lyn turned into their Blue-Eyes White Dragon forms. He jumped up and mounted Seto's back. "Be mindful of your condition, Seto. You've just barely recovered from the last battle."
Seto let out a dragon's roar, which Yugi was able to understand.
"Yes, of course, we'll stay close and watch Lyn."
"Say 'Ah', motherfuckers!" Yusuke readied and fired off a big Spirit Gun that wiped out numerous Black clones.
As Synisters surrounded her, Sailor Mars summoned her Houou cloak, transforming herself into Houou Mars. Houou Mars spun around, sending cosmic wildfire that wiped out the Synisters. She propelled herself into the air and shot down a XeedImperialdramon. Throwing her arms up, the Houou cloak materialized and formed over Houou Mars, taking the shape of the familiar phoenix.
Dai-Valkyrie Venus rushed into a BlackBabimon and ran her Wink Chain Sword into him. After slaying the Black clone, she spun her sword around and sliced through a BlackNeoDevimon and a bunch of BlackSaibamon.
Tempus Pluto raised her Garnet Staff, time freezing Black Ginyumon, Black Chaser, BlackBrutemon, Black Devilin, and BlackGurdmon. "Be gone, lowly creatures!" She dropped her staff and obliterated them with ease.
Volodramon fired his Temporal Exaflare to destroy Black Jax and Black Sonja clones. "Blimey! No surprise that we're already greeted by the cannon fodder. Zeed X intends to wear us down!"
Gao Pluto stayed close with the other Planetary Senshi. Dai-Valkyries Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Saturn, and Neo Moon fought off and wiped out a good amount of Synisters and Black clones.
Renrukimon, Terryamon, and Inumuramon worked together to fight off some MillenniLampmons, MillenniZambamons, and MillenniMachinedramons. The Advanced Beast Biomerged warriors made short work of the MillenniDigimon creatures.
The Ten Legendary Warriors helped take on some MillenniKimeramons and XeedImperialdramons. KaiserGreymon unleashed Dragonfire Crossbow, which took down a XeedImperialdramon. MagnaGarurumon managed to bring down a MillenniKimeramon.
Team Xros Heart sent their Digimon to fight off the Synister and Black clones. Taiki, Kiriha, and Nene sent OmegaShoutmon, ZekeGreymon, Beelzebumon, and Mervamon to engage some female humanoid wolves called MukuroGaruru X and male humanoid reptilians called MazokuGrey X.
"This way, guys!" Guilkatomon rallied his friends and allies forward.
"Heads up!" Dai-Valkyrie Moon shouted as a swarm of insect-like Synisters headed for them. She swung her sword, quickly wiping out a majority of the Synisters.
Guilkatomon unleashed a Hazard Wave, burning away another insect Synister swarm.
A Bunny Synister popped out of the ground with its drill-shaped claws. The floppy-eared beast sniffed fresh meat and shifted toward the YYGDM-01 heroes. It roared and lunged toward Yusuke. The Detective charged Spirit Energy into his hands and blasted it with a Shotgun. The sound of gunfire exploded and blew the Bunny synister up like a water balloon.
Shaka gathered Spirit Energies and focused to the point of firing off her Focused Shotgun. She sent a bluish wave of blasts that sounded off like shotgun fire. The blasts converged and impacted another Bunny Synister. The spirit energies neutralized the Bunny's vital pressure points As the Bunny froze in place, Shaka quickly bisected it with her claymore and wiped out its remains with her sacred power.
A Zennon-like Synister flew down, spewing Youki blasts at Hiei, Kurama, and Kuwabara. The trio dodged the Synister's attacks. Kuwabara readied his Spirit Sword and jumped up to cut off one of its wings. The winged Synister narrowly dodged, but Kurama clipped one of its wings with a vine whip. The Synister expelled Youki blasts from its three heads - one from its normal central head, a yellow skull-like head on its left shoulder, and a feminine-looking head with green hair on its right shoulders. Hiei quickly intercepted the three beams with his sword. The demon swordsman then sliced and bisected the Synister in a gory fashion.
As he rode Seto into the air, Dark Magician!Yugi fired a dark magical beam that wiped out Synister insects. Blue-Eyes!Seto and Blue-Eyes!Lyn both unleashed bluish energy blasts that destroyed Synister insects, Bunny Synisters, and Ogdru Jahad-like Synisters.
Flame Swordsman!Joey, Dark Magician Girl!Téa, Cyber Commander!Tristan, Strike Ninja!Duke, and Cyber Harpie!Mai helped clear a path full of Black clones and Synister insects. Joey produced Red-Eyes Black Dragon, Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon, Gilford the Lightning, and Phoenix Gearfried. Téa took out some cards and utilized her Spirit Fusion magic to summon her Magician Girl team: Berry Magician Girl, Lemon Magician Girl, Apple Magician Girl, Choco Magician Girl, and Kiwi Magician Girl. Mai conjured her Harpie Girl team: the Harpie Lady Sisters, Harpie Channeler, Harpie Dancer, and Harpie's Pet Phantasmal Dragon. Tristan summoned Super Roboyarou, Thunder Kid, and Thunder Dragon. Duke brought out Orgoth the Relentless and Dark Assailant.
The Duelists joined their monsters to battle the Synister and Black clone swarms. The Duelists and their duel monsters helped diminish the enemy numbers.
As Dai-Valkyrie Moon and Houou Mars slew several Zennon-like Synisters, they joined their fellow Senshi. Mercury, Jupiter, and Venus just took down several turtle Synisters.
Dai-Valkyrie Jupiter turned herself into a human lightning bolt and blasted a hole through a turtle Synister. Dai-Valkyrie Mercury summoned a pillar of water and crushed a giant spider. Dai-Valkyrie Venus slashed down a mantis-like Synister.
"Great work, everyone! Let's keep reducing their numbers!" Tempus Pluto rallied her allies. She swung and blasted away a Zennon-like Synister.
Volodramon watched as a giant spider jumped onto Tempus Pluto. "Behind you, Pluto!"
As Tempus Pluto spun around, the spider demon closed in and prepared to grab her in its venomous fangs. Then, a wave of destructive power swept across and wiped out the spider demon in one shot.
"Wha…" Tempus Pluto blinked thrice as she whipped to her right side and noticed Inuyasha with his Tessaiga, which brimmed with dark moonlight. "There's an Inuyasha in this dimension?"
Volodramon spat out. "Hey, dog-boy! Thanks for saving my lady!"
Inuyasha snorted. "Your welcome, I guess. I'm just here to get rid of this stinkin' demon trash. Speaking of which…" He turned toward the Spirit Detectives. "Hey, where the hell were you four? I could've used your help back there."
Yusuke appeared confused by the half-demon dog's remark. "Huh? What the hell are you talking about? We don't know you."
Just then, Shaka rejoined the Spirit Detectives, which founded Inuyasha further. He noted Shaka's appearance and realized something off.
"Wait, who are you?" Inuyasha asked Shaka.
"Wow, it's Inuyasha! You mean Inuyasha exists in this dimension?!"
"It appears so, Yui," Kurama addressed Shaka.
"Hold on. You're referring to us like you know us," Kuwabara said.
"That's because he does," came a voice that sounded exactly like Kuwabara's.
"What the hell?!" Yusuke recognized the voice.
The Spirit Detectives turned over to their far left as they saw themselves. It was the DF-616 Prime!Spirit Detectives, sans Shaka. Yusuke (DF-616 Prime), Hiei (DF-616 Prime), and Kurama (DF-616 Prime) all looked they haven't aged a day, partly due to being demons or having demon blood. Kuwabara (DF-616 Prime) had a full-on manly beard and his hair had some gray in areas.
Kuwabara gawked at his grizzled DF-616 Prime counterpart. "No way, that's me! But I'm old and have a mean-looking beard! Heh, I like this."
Kurama faced his DF-616 Prime counterpart. "Greetings, other me."
The two Hieis greeted each other with quiet stares.
Yusuke waved over to his DF-616 Prime counterpart. "Hey! You looking good for your age, other me!"
Yusuke (DF-616 Prime) grinned jubilantly. "Same to you, buddy! We both look great for our age!"
"Wow, this is surreal," Dai-Valkyrie Moon couldn't believe it.
"You think that's crazy! Look there!" Houou Mars pointed up to the top of a ravaged office building.
The Inner Senshi and Tempus Pluto were flabbergasted to see themselves. However, the DF-616 Prime!Inner Senshi and Sailor Pluto were in their Eternal Senshi forms.
Gao Pluto and the Outer Senshi arrived to reconvene with the Inners. As soon as they saw the DF-616 Prime!Sailor Senshi, they were speechless. It wasn't long when the remaining DF-616 Prime!Outers dropped in to complete the team.
Tempus Pluto muttered in disbelief. "I really should be used to seeing other universe versions of ourselves."
Sailor Pluto (DF-616 Prime) dropped down and confronted Tempus Pluto. "So, you're from that other universe I've had recent visions about." She noticed Gao Pluto and Volodramon standing beside their Pluto. "It's good you've all come."
Tempus Pluto queried to her counterpart. "Did you foresee this disaster would happen to your world?"
Sailor Pluto (DF-616 Prime) nodded. "I knew that the being named Zeed would return to this world, but never would I imagine he'd evolve further. I knew that if he would return, he'd release the Synisters into our world."
Dai-Valkyrie Moon added. "Sounds like we came a little too late?"
Sailor Moon (DF-616 Prime) dropped near her YYGDM-01 counterpart. "It's never too late, Sailor Moon. We can reverse everything these monsters have done to our world." She examined Moon's armor. "By the way, I really dig your battle armor. It's totally a cool look for me!"
Dai-Valkyrie Moon puffed herself up proudly. "Thank you."
Houou Mars addressed the DF-616 Prime!Planetary Senshi. "You're also not the first alternate universe Sailor Senshi we met." She spotted Sailor Mars (DF-616 Prime). "Sailor Mars."
Mars (DF-616 Prime) acknowledged. "It's good to meet another me. I also sense great power in you. A power I've never had instilled in me."
Houou Mars smiled. "Where I come from, I'm a Sailor Mars who's unique to herself. I share this body with a cosmic entity called the Houou."
Sailor Saturn (DF-616 Prime) added. "I can believe it. The nature of this power is beyond anything I've sensed, sans Sailor Moon's own power and those our Digital Fused colleagues."
Sailor Uranus (DF-616 Prime) nodded. "No joke. Your power could even give that Digi-Mazoku Omega X a run for his money."
Sailor Neptune (DF-616 Prime) smirked coyly. "Perhaps even give competition to our precious Sailor Saturn."
Saturn (DF-616 Prime) shut her eyes. "Perhaps."
Houou Mars chuckled. "Well, I'm not here to compete with anyone. I just want both our sides to beat Zeed X and his forces."
"That's a tall order," Tuxedo Kamen (DF-616 Prime) interjected as he arrived with Neo Moon (DF-616 Prime).
"Perhaps, but as long as we fight together, we can't possibly lose," Tuxedo Kamen spoke up as he came with Neo Moon.
The two Neo Moons gasped upon seeing each other.
"It's me!" The Neo Moons cried out in shock.
"We can't lose hope, Mamo," Moon (DF-616 Prime) huffed her husband.
"She's right, Tuxedo Kamen!" A voice belonging to a newcomer yelled out. It came from Sakura Kinomoto, who dropped down next to the Planetary Senshi (DF-616 Prime). "If we give up now, the Synisters will have our world and give it to Zeed X."
Dai-Valkyrie Jupiter gasped. "Wow, Sakura Kinomoto! And she's grown into a hell of a babe."
Dai-Valkyrie Neptune genuinely smiled. "She has become quite the beauty, hasn't she?"
Neo Moon (DF-616 Prime) waved to the Cardcaptor master. "It's been a while, Sakura!"
Sakura nodded. "Likewise, Usa."
Neo Moon palmed her cheeks. "Wow, you're friends with Sakura Kinomoto?!"
Dai-Valkyrie Uranus chuckled. "Who else are y'all friends with? First Inuyasha and now Sakura Kinomoto."
Just then, Tenchi and Ryoko reconvened with the Planetary Senshi (DF-616 Prime), the Spirit Detectives (DF-616 Prime), and Sakura.
"Sorry for the hold-up! We were sidetracked!" Tenchi apologized for his and Ryoko's tardiness.
Ryoko scoffed. "That's cause Ayeka had to butt in and then got hurt."
"Thankfully Washu is tending to her injuries," Tenchi said. "These Synisters aren't exactly pushovers when their numbers start consolidating!"
"Tenchi and Ryoko?!" The Senshi and Detectives yelled out in unison.
"Hmm? Whoa, there's two sets of Senshi!" Ryoko balked at the sight of two Planetary Senshi groups until she realized which was hers. "Ok, care to explain what the hell is going on? I'm seeing double and I know I'm sober."
Tenchi recalled. "Ah, this is exactly what Miss Washu told us about alternate universes! And we'd have alternate counterparts living on other parallel Earths!"
"Yeah… I was hardly paying attention to that lesson Washu tried cramming on us."
"Oh gosh, this world is co-inhabited by different groups of heroes!" Dai-Valkyrie Venus exclaimed.
"Yes, sounds quite like our own world, doesn't it?" Dai-Valkyrie Mercury giggled.
"I'm going to guess there exists Tamers, Duelists, and Legendary Warriors here?" Yusuke asked.
"Heh, wouldn't you like to know?" Yusuke (DF-616 Prime) grinned.
xxxxx
After taking down many Black clones and Synisters, the Legendary Warriors were greeted by their DF-616 Prime counterparts. KaiserGreymon confronted his DF-616 Prime self.
"Sup, buddy?" KaiserGreymon asked him.
"Right back at you, buddy," KaiserGreymon (DF-616 Prime) replied firmly, his voice sounded gruffer and older.
Once the Legendary Warrior groups conversed, they got to learn of each other. Takuya and Izumi learned their DF-616 Prime went to college, got married, and went on to live productive lives after Zeed was defeated. Takuya (DF-616 Prime) was proud to learn his YYGDM-01 self became a firefighter. Zoe (DF-616 Prime) was ecstatic when she learned her YYGDM-01 self became a model.
Besides Zoe (DF-616 Prime), the other Legendary Warriors (DF-616 Prime) had other notable name differences. Junpei learned his DF-616 Prime self is named JP. Tomoki found out his DF-616 Prime counterpart is named Tommy.
"Are we glad you all came," KaiserGreymon (DF-616 Prime) said. "And it's an honor to get to know other variations of us."
MagnaGarurumon (DF-616 Prime) noted. "You're obviously younger than us, but it seems you've seen more battles than we have."
Kazemon (DF-616 Prime) added. "I mean, the rest of you all have your own Z-Hybrid forms! None of us outside Takuya and Kouji were able to achieve that!"
Beetlemon (DF-616 Prime) crossed his arms. "Gotta give y'all props for those accomplishments."
KaiserGreymon nodded. "Thank you, and it'll be a pleasure to fight alongside y'all in this battle. And this one is for keeps. If we don't beat Zeed X and his army, we're all done for. So, from one Legendary Warrior group to another, let's meet fate head-on!"
Both Legendary Warrior groups roared in unison.
xxxxx
Likewise, the Duelists met with their DF-616 Prime counterparts. The two sides had similar team members. The notable exception was that the DF-616 Prime!Duelists lacked a Lyn Stromberg. Seto Kaiba (DF-616 Prime) was shocked to realize his YYGDM-01 counterpart was married and had a child with Lyn. In DF-616 Prime, there was no Lyn Stromberg-Kaiba for Seto to fall for, but has occasionally bumped and met with a blue-haired woman who warned him of an impending disaster that would unite him with himself.
Joey blinked as he and his DF-616 Prime waved at each other's faces. "Hey, ya sure you're no hologram?"
Joey (DF-616 Prime) yelled out. "Who are ya callin' a hologram?! I'm a real as you are, jerk!"
Both Mais sighed over their boyfriends' heated exchange.
Lyn approached Seto (DF-616 Prime). "Excuse me, but I'm Lyn Kaiba. I'm the other Seto Kaiba's wife."
Seto (DF-616 Prime) stared at her as if he had seen a ghost. "...oh, hello…" He awkwardly turned away. "Sorry, but…"
"Um, is something wrong?"
"You just look like someone I've met."
Hearing this, Lyn smiled. "I see." So, my counterpart does live in this world, but probably with a different name and life, I suppose. Still, exciting to know this Seto has met 'me'.
"So, do you still run KaibaCorp with an iron fist?" Seto asked his older DF-616 Prime counterpart.
"Of course."
"That's good to know."
"Wow, so you can turn into Duel Monsters!" Yugi (DF-616 Prime) marveled at what his YYGDM-01 self told him.
"Yep, through a spiritual process called Spirit Fusion," Yugi plainly stated.
"Incredible, other Yugi. And both of us have long since watched Atem pass into the afterlife."
Yugi nodded sadly. "Yes. A tearful goodbye, but both of us have taken on his likeness to honor his legacy. After all, we are his reincarnations."
Yugi (DF-616 Prime) resolved. "And fate has intertwined our sides together to fight our biggest enemy to date."
(End theme)

Suddenly, a giant wormhole opened up and carved through some Mist clouds. An immense surge of demonic energies hastily leaked out and flooded the sky. These demon energies smashed into the ground, causing every fighter to stop and look up.
(Cue Jojo's Bizarre Adventure - Awaken (Pillar Men Theme))
Kaiser X stared at the wormhole and sensed the demonic energies. "What the hell is that?"
Zeed X said nothing, but had a calm smirk on his face.
"Well, it looks like they are coming out to wreak havoc," Zeed said.
"Oh no," Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) realized the source of these powerful demon powers. "It's that trio."
The Spirit Detectives (YYGDM-01 and DF-616 Prime) also sensed the impending demonic trio.
"Oh shit. Raizen warned me about these three," Yusuke (DF-616 Prime) muttered.
"What the hell are these three powerful demon powers?" Yusuke asked his counterpart.
"According to the knowledge I acquired from Koenma, they're the fabled Synister Lords," Kurama (DF-616 Prime) informed. "They're supposed to be the first Synisters."
"Damn, they have to be ancient," Kuwabara paled at this.
"They predate even Raizen," Kurama (DF-616 Prime) said. "I'm afraid to say this, but even if our two sides were to work together, we'd be crushed like insects."
Yusuke growled. "Like hell I'm going to cower against these old ass demons. They want a fight? I'm ready to give 'em one!"
Hearing his counterpart shoot his mouth off, Yusuke (DF-616 Prime) nodded. "I love the way you think, Yusuke. Even coming from different worlds, we're still one and the same."
"I don't know if that's a good thing or not," Hiei sardonically remarked.
"Let's not try and question Urameshi logic," Hiei (DF-616 Prime) suggested.
Far off from the heroes' location, the deities witnessed the three massive demonic beings descend from the giant portal. Lady Moinanea nearly dropped to a knee as the Synister Lords' powerful auras brought her distress.
"Lady Moinanea," Toushinmon helped her up. "Be careful not to assess their immense powers. It may be too much for you to bear."
"Thank you, Toushinmon."
"My word, these are the Synister Lords?" Mukuromon asked. "This is the first I've seen of them. For as long as I've lived, they've been dormant."
"Only now to rise to herald the destruction of this world," Hadesmon said. "Toushinmon, maybe at your prime, you would've stood a fighting chance against these behemoths."
"Lest, my glory days are behind me, but I'll fight them if I must and if Taichi's group fails to stop them," Toushinmon said.
"Well, well, these are the feared Synister Lords? Their divine energy is so immense, they could provide a decent challenge for me!" Beerusmon shared a different viewpoint.
"C'mon, brother. You can't be thinking that now?" Champamon queried.
"Why not? I'd be happy to put them in their place!"
Whismon and Vadosmon both sighed.
"Lord Beerusmon, perhaps we should let Taichi and the others handle them?" Whismon suggested.
"Yes, there's no need for us to intervene unless necessary," Vadosmon said.
Zeed X briefly scanned the three Synister Lords descend into the heart of Tokyo.
"Welcome to the party, Synister Lords," Zeed X acknowledged the titanic trio's presence.
xxxxx
The Synister Lords appeared in all their glory. The titan-sized trio gave resemblances to the Pillar Men from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. They stood a staggering 60 feet tall. The one looked like Kars is the leader and wore armor similar to Raviel, Lord of Phantasms. The one looked like Esidisi wore armor similar to Uria, Lord of Searing Flames. The one looked like Wamuu wore armor similar to Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder. These fabled behemoths could be considered the Synister counterparts to the DigiMazoku lords.
The Kars-looking Synister methodically scanned the ravaged Japanese metropolis. He let out a deep breath. As he inhaled, he brought energy into his body. He sensed not just the cluster of powerful Ki energies, but the heat and air pressure around him. His ears picked up all sounds from every battle taking place and words being uttered.
"Kain," the other Synister lords garnered the aforementioned leader's attention.
Looking over his shoulder, Kain acknowledged his colleagues. "Amon, Bael, are we ready to raze this world and herald the new age of the Synisters?"
Amon and Bael both replied. "Yes, Kain."
Amon, the Esidisi-like being, sensed the cluster of Ki energies spread around them. "There are tons of warriors here who've slain our subjects."
Bael, the Wamuu-like being, declared. "These lowly beings must be purged for their blatant disregard for us Synisters. We are meant to be feared and revered as gods."
Kain scanned the city as he sighted the YYGDM-01 heroes and their DF-616 Prime counterparts. "Should we deal with them over there first? Or perhaps…" He shifted over toward the vicinity where the DF-616 warriors fought alongside their DF-616 Prime counterparts. "...we should eliminate them? Matters not. We will bath this city in their blood. It's been over 2000 years since we've had a good fight." With a flex of his arm, he unleashed a wave of energy projectiles shaped like blades, which tore through many buildings and carved a pathway.
"Move!" Jax yelled as he, Sonja, and their DF-616 Prime counterparts evaded the incoming building-shattering projectiles.
"What the hell?! What are those giants over there?!" Sonja exclaimed, eyeing the Synister Lord trio.
"So, those are the feared Synister Lords I've learned from Lady Moinanea," Pikkan (DF-616 Prime) said.
"Synister Lords? You mean, these freaks have commanders?!" Pikkan yelled. "Then again, I shouldn't be surprised."
"They're so big and they each have dangerously high Ki," BanchoLeomon Burst Mode said, assessing the trio's battle powers. "Be on your guard, everyone!"
Kabuto X, Vulcan X, Zephyr X, and Shunoros X eavesdropped on BanchoLeomon BM and company's conversation. They turned to each other apprehensively.
"Looks like we're out of our element here, guys," Vulcan X said. "Great, just when we've just tapped into our Ascendant forms, stronger enemies show up just to eclipse us!"
"How are we even going to make a difference?" Zephyr X dreaded the possibility of fighting the Synister Lords. "We've barely been able to beat these smaller Synisters!"
Kabuto X reassured them. "We won't even need to fight them outright. That's why we strategize. Let our stronger friends beat them down and we'll neutralize the enemies through other means."
Shunoros X added. "Izzy's right, guys. Remember, there are times we have to fight smart than hard."
"You four take cover somewhere," BanchoLeomon BM addressed the four Ascendants. "Izzy is correct. You're better off when we need you. We'll do our best to bring down these behemoths."
"Agreed," CyberLeomon concurred with his Leomon counterpart.
"Well, what are we doing standing idly? Let's give them a fight they'll regret!" Sheila declared, summoning threads in her fingers.

"Well, how about it, guys?" Yusuke asked his fellow Detectives and the Planetary Senshi. "All of us against those three big bastards?"
Dai-Valkyrie Moon spoke up. "Actually, some of us are going to help Omega X a hand against Zeed X," She noticed Kaiser X fighting Zeed X far from them.
"That's a good idea," Tempus Pluto said. "Volodramon, myself, and Homura will go aid the ones fighting Zeed X."
"All right, then me, Mars, and Madoka will help the others with Zeed," Moon stated.
"Sailor Moon," Moon (DF-616 Prime) called over to her counterpart.
"Yeah? What is it, other me?"
"Just wanted to wish you luck and hope we'll see each other again after all this."
"Sure, but let's survive first."
"Come, let's go fetch Madoka and Homura wherever they are," Tempus Pluto said as she and Volodramon flew off to get Homura.
"Let's go and get Madoka, Sailor Moon," Houou Mars took to the air covered in her phoenix aura. She and Moon took off to locate Madoka.
"Well, that leaves the rest of us to deal with those three big freaks," Dai-Valkyrie Venus stated as Venus (DF-616 Prime) stood ready to fight beside her. "You ready to lead the march on?"
"Yeah!" Venus (DF-616 Prime) yelled out.
As Kain walked over numerous ruined buildings, the Synister Lord sighted the Duelists (YYGDM-01 and DF-616 Prime) and Legendary Warriors (YYGDM-01 and DF-616 Prime) barricading his way.
"Going somewhere?!" KaiserGreymon shouted at Kain.
"You'll have to get by us if you want to advance!" MagnaGarurumon exclaimed.
"Get ready and unleash all your attacks!" Yugi roared as he, Seto, and Lyn were the first to launch their blasts at Kain.
Kain's giant frame absorbed the blasts from Yugi's Dark Magic Attack and Seto & Lyn's Burst Stream of Destruction. Téa and her SepteMagician Girls consolidated their magical energies, forging a massive magical beam that collided and pushed Kain back. However, the Magician Girl army's combined attack didn't damage him. Joey, Tristan, Mai, and Duke attacked with their respective monsters.
"All right, let's beat him down hard!" KaiserGreymon led the other Warriors to engage Kain. He jumped up and swung his sword, sending a barrage of Pyro Dragons.
MagnaGarurumon unloaded an artillery fire of his Feral Fire, which pounded on Kain.
YamiLeomon cast a silver column of light from the sky and blasted Kain head-on with his Total Eclipse. The attack strong enough to obliterate Mega-level Digimon did nothing but irritate Kain.
"Let's keep it up!" Donarmon declared as he, Ventimon, and Yetimon attacked Kain.
"All right, now to give it our turn!" KaiserGreymon (DF-616 Prime) rallied his Legendary Warriors.
"Let's not let up… what?! Oh no!" Yugi (DF-616 Prime) gasped as Kain formed large blades from his arms, which he launched toward his foes.
"Get down!" Yugi yelled out, but to his shock and dismay, Kain's bladed projectiles not only tore up the surrounding buildings, but quickly killed several numbers of the DF-616 Prime Duelists and Legendary Warrior groups.
Among the first casualties: Beetlemon (DF-616 Prime), Kazemon (DF-616 Prime), Kumamon (DF-616 Prime), Loweemon (DF-616 Prime), Téa (DF-616 Prime), Tristan (DF-616 Prime), Bakura (DF-616 Prime), and Mai (DF-616 Prime).
"JP! ZOE! TOMMY! KOUICHI!" KaiserGreymon (DF-616 Prime) and MagnaGarurumon (DF-616 Prime) reacted in utter horror. The former witnessed not just his friends, but his wife killed. The latter saw his half-brother and friends wiped out.
Yugi (DF-616 Prime), Joey (DF-616 Prime) and Seto (DF-616 Prime) had similar reactions.
"NO!" Yugi (DF-616 Prime) cried.
"MAI!" Joey (DF-616 Prime) screamed.
"YOU BASTARD!" KaiserGreymon (DF-616 Prime) snapped as his anger fueled his sword, allowing him to manifest bigger flames. He swung and sent an inferno wave at Kain, who enhanced his body and absorbed the flames with his thicker skin layers. "DAMN YOU!"
KaiserGreymon joined in and added flames to his counterpart's. "C'mon, guys! We're not letting him get away with this!"
Yugi rallied the Duelists and their Duel Monsters to retaliate against Kain.
The KaiserGreymon duo crossed their swords and combined their flame dragons, conjuring a bigger Pyro Dragon, which slammed into Kain and knocked him through a building. Yugi summoned a third Blue-Eyes White Dragon and used Polymerization, combining the third Blue-Eyes with Seto and Lyn. Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon appeared in their place and fired Ultimate Burst into Kain.
"And stay down!" KaiserGreymon (DF-616 Prime) roared, painstakingly watching Kain laying in a heap under debris.
Kain's eyes quickly shot open. He responded by shooting blades from his body. A few struck Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon and sent it crashing far away.
"SETO! LYN!" Yugi hopped off the three-headed dragon and flew toward their location.
"Meddlesome insects! Bow before your Synister king!" Kain demanded, using telekinesis to throw debris at the Legendary Warriors, the Duelists, and the surviving DF-616 Duelists/Legendary Warriors.
A piece of giant debris headed straight for MagnaGarurumon, but YamiLeomon blasted it down.
"The Synisters shall reign supreme over this world!" Kain boasted, kicking his foot up high as he sent a giant wave that knocked the heroes back.
Téa cried out. "YUGI!"
(End theme)
As Yugi finally reached Seto and Lyn, he saw both turned back to normal. Lyn barely awoke as she felt her left arm was broken. However, Seto was in even worse shape.
"Lyn…!" Yugi helped her up.
"Seto… please check on Seto…" Lyn pleaded. "Besides my arm being broken, I'm fine… it's Seto I'm worried about. He took a rougher fall than me."
"Kaiba. Kaiba!" Yugi shook him hard, trying to get a response. When he checked for a pulse, Yugi's eyes went wide. "No…"
"Yugi…" Lyn asked as Yugi sank his head. "Don't keep me in the dark."
"Lyn, I'm sorry…"
Lyn felt her heart skip a few beats as her mouth went dry. Despite her broken arm, Lyn mustered enough perseverance to crawl over to her husband. She leaned over and cried against Seto's body.
"Kaiba, I won't let these monsters get away with this," Yugi vowed to his former rival.

Amon ended up crossing paths with some of the DF-616 and DF-616 Prime warriors. BanchoLeomon BM and CyberLeomon led their friends against the Synister Lord.
Amon increased his own body temperatures to the extremes, heating up his blood and internal fluids. An aura of transparent smoke wisped around Amon. His body temperature peaked at extreme levels to the point his skin turned red. Amon's eyes then glowed white and fired twin purple beams that carved out a wave of destruction through ruined buildings.
As Amon's beam headed their way, BanchoLeomon BM was the first to respond to the threat. He shot up and caught the beam with his Burning Bancho Punch. BanchoLeomon BM strained hard against the Synister Lord's beam. CyberLeomon promptly joined in and raised a fist toward Amon's beam. Pikkan fired his Thunder Flash Attack to hold off Amon's beam. Pikkan (DF-616 Prime) helped his counterpart and fired blasts at the beam. BW and BW (DF-616 Prime) attacked Amon from the air, hurling Terra Destroyers onto his back. Sheila used her strings to binding Amon's left hand and pulling hard enough to tear off his hand.
"Heheh, valiant team efforts, but you don't have enough strength to best a Synister Lord like me!" Boasted Amon, gritting his teeth hard.
Targeting Amon's knees, Botamomon spewed energy beams. After firing a few blasts, Botamomon managed to force Amon down to a knee. Magettamon expelled hot magma from his body like a fountain as it spilled over Amon's right knee. Cringing hard in pain, Amon fell to one leg.
Botamomon and Magettamon high-fived each other. Then, Magettamon got down on his left knee and let Botamomon ride on his shoulders. The double teaming duo slammed into Amon's left knee and knocked him down. Amon increased his body temperature, spreading smoke to blanket the area. As Amon got up, he raced toward the Digiverse 6 duo and knocked him over with a strong kick.
As he flew up toward Amon, BanchoLeomon BM landed an elbow to the small of Amon's back. Amon dropped to a knee. As he tried to cover, BanchoLeomon BM and CyberLeomon landed a double punch to Amon's face, knocking him over onto his back. The Pikkan duo unleashed a Double Thunder Flash Attack to break down Amon's defenses.
"Here we go!" Jax declared as he and his DF-616 Prime counterpart flew at Amon's right side.
"Come get you some!" Sonja roared as she and her DF-616 Prime counterpart headed for Amon's left side.
Jax charged up energy into his right hand and clenched it to a fist. He landed a mighty punch to Amon's face. Jax (DF-616 Prime) performed the same tactic and punched Amon's forehead. As Amon reached for the Jax duo, Sonja tossed a Destructo Disc that sliced off Amon's hand. Sonja (DF-616 Prime) bombarded a Ki barrage into Amon's chest.
"Enough!" Amon roared, swinging down his hands. He knocked the Artificial siblings (DF-616 and DF-616 Prime) away.
Kabuto X came out of hiding and fired a beam into the back of Amon's left knee. After taking out Amon's knee, the Synister Lord fell, allowing Vulcan X, Zephyr X, and Shunoros X to attack Amon while he was still down.
Thomas, Yoshino, and Ikuto then arrived with their Digimon.
"They've got him down! Let's seize this chance, my friends!" Thomas declared.
MirageGaogamon BM, Rosemon BM, and Ravemon BM unleashed their attacks on Amon.
Also arriving on the scene were Ruki Matsuda, Tyler Kanbara/Infernomon, Solar, and Legolas. The trio prepared their attack on the Synister Lord.
"They've got the Synister down! We could possibly beat him!" Legolas called out.
"Then, let's give them a hand," Infernomon suggested, taking out and brandishing his twin swords. He imbued the blades with white flames and charged forward.
Ruiki and Solar flew off after Infernomon. Ruki came to BanchoLeomon BM and CyberLeomon's aid. Solar assisted his father, Pikkan (DF-616 Prime).
Infernomon unleashed what could be described as white flashes, which in actuality was him swinging and slashing with his white flames swords. He quickly hit Amon's body with his Inferno Double Slash.
Ruki and Solar fired simultaneous Ki blasts all over Amon.
Despite the beatings he was taking, Amon rose to his feet and fired dual beams from his eyes. He veered around, directing his beams toward his adversaries. The few that got caught by the beams were critically hurt, but there came a few casualties: Ikuto & Ravemon BM, BW (DF-616 Prime), Solar, and Sonja (DF-616 Prime).
Upon seeing her friend getting killed, Ruki went off and rapidly blasted Amon's face. Pikkan (DF-616 Prime) went ballistic after Solar's death and unleashed a barrage of punches on Amon. Amon spewed more blasts, causing Ruki and Pikkan (DF-616 Prime) to fly around him. Infernomon drove his swords into Amon's left eye and tore it out. Jax (DF-616 Prime) avenged his sister and attacked Amon.
Building up enough power to fight back, Amon released an immense aura that repelled most of his adversaries back. BanchoLeomon BM, CyberLeomon, Jax, Sonja, Sheila, Jax (DF-616 Prime), Pikkan, Pikkan (DF-616 Prime), Ruki, and Infernomon were the only ones standing ready to fight. The others were quickly incapacitated.
Kabuto X and Vulcan X collected both Zephyr X and Shunoros X. The latter two were injured in the fight.
"Ikuto…" Yoshino wept for her fallen colleague.
"We have to stand strong for Ikuto's sake," Thomas tried talking her back into fighting their enemy.
Legolas gripped his bleeding shoulder. He clamped his hands together and prayed. "Raguelmon, Rasielmon, if only you were here… maybe you can help make a difference."
xxxxx
Bael headed over to confront the Spirit Detectives (YYGDM-01 and DF-616 Prime), Planetary Senshi (YYGDM-01 and DF-616 Prime), Sakura, Inuyasha, Tenchi, and Ryoko. Just as the Synister Lord was about to launch an attack, two beams of opposite lights (white and gray) collided with him. The beams did little more than slow him down.
Nonetheless, this attack garnered Bael's attention. The Synister Lord glanced to his far-right to see two figures floating in mid-air.
"Who are you?" Bael demanded from his attackers, who turned out to be Raguelmon and Rasielmon.
Raguelmon and Rasielmon, having put their differences aside, put their hands together.
"Legolas is here. I just know it," Raguelmon sensed the young deity's presence.
"Let him rest wherever he is, we'll carry the weight for him now," Rasielmon said, intently glaring down Bael. "You're dealing with us now, Synister."
As the sisters locked their hands, a white fractal code enveloped over them. Rasielmon and Raguelmon's life energies resonated with each other and initiated a perfect merger of the two feline beings.
"You dare to challenge me? A Synister Lord?" Bael scowled. As he approached, he was blinded by the aura surrounding the sisters. He hissed while covering his eyes.
As the white light died down and the fractal coding cocoon dissipated, a white feminine humanoid Digimon appeared in place of the sisters. The merged entity had orange, green, and blue double helix-like appendages in place of hands and feet, and at the end of white hair-like appendages covered its eyes. It has sharp teeth and three pairs of cat ears with orange highlights. It has large grey wings, each with a blue, pointed appendage, a violet jewel on the left wing, and a cyan jewel on the right wing.
"I am Ordinemon," the being introduced herself following a loud monstrous screech. Her roars unleashed a shockwave that pushed Bael far back.
Seemingly overtaken by Ordinemon's power, Bael was knocked into a building. Ordinemon clenched her right hand tightly. Flapping her gigantic black feathered wings, the Fallen Angel Digimon propelled herself forward and slammed herself straight into Bael. As Bael tried pulling himself up, Ordinemon face grabbed the Synister Lord and leaked black energy that seemed to burn his skin.
"Unhand me…!" Bael struggled to break loose. He attempted to spin his arms to create quick motions and unleash a devastating windstorm attack.
"I was born from the sorrow and wrath of two beings… I was to maintain order… now I must fulfill that purpose and bring order to this world," Ordinemon eloquently proclaimed between the monstrous screeches. "In order to bring happiness to our one and only love… and to ensure no abomination like you Synisters ever crosses over to this side again, I must erase your kind. And I must reboot this world to clean up the mess your kind has brought forth!" As she flapped her wings, black miasma spread over the area and started to block out the sky.
The endless miasma that seeped from Ordinemon quickly covered the Tokyo sky and eventually spread over the entire planet.
"To heal this world, I must reboot it to ensure a balance is restored. This world along with the Digital World must be reset to nothingness!"
xxxxx
Everyone paused to witness the sky being blacked out by Ordinemon's presence. The YYGDM-01 and DF-616 warriors were befuddled with this strange phenomenon. However, there were a few (namely Legolas) who knew what was the cause of this.
"No, Raguelmon, Rasielmon, you don't have to do this!" Legolas yelled out as he flew off to her exact location.
The Gods of Destruction & their Angel attendants, the DigiMazoku Lords, and Lady Moinanea sensed Ordinemon's divine presence. More often or not Beerusmon would make a comment, but the purple cat was silent over this matter.
"Legolas, please try to reason with Raguelmon and Rasielmon," Moinanea prayed for her son.
"Interesting, if I'm right, Ordinemon has the power to reset a world back to the basics if said world is beyond repair," Whismon informed.
"Yes, and Ordinemon is supposed to be one to maintain balance in a world, but when disorder befalls a world she will come and 'correct' the wrongs," Vadosmon stated.
"We can't afford for her to reset this world now. Our warriors have things under control!" Mukuromon snapped.
"She's here mainly because of the Synisters. She thinks the only way to rid the world of the Synister abominations, everything must die," Toushinmon plainly stated.
"Ugh, this ain't good," Champamon grunted. "Beerusmon, why don't we go over and knock some sense into that Ordinemon?"
"Because this is not our place to do so, brother," Beerusmon said. "Fear not. Ordinemon will likely be meeting her end shortly."
xxxxx
Sensing Bael's urgent situation, Kain and Amon stormed off from their previous locations, leaving their adversaries behind.
"Amon! Our brother's life is about to be snuffed out! We must not let him die!" Kain called out.
"There!" Amon faced the direction ahead of them. He and Kain spotted Bael struggling against Ordinemon.
Kain and Amon seized Ordinemon's wings as they yanked her off Bael. Bael stumbled forward as most of his body was burned by Ordinemon's miasma.
"Bael!" Amon called out to him.
"Thanks for saving me, my brothers," Bael stood up, using his divine power to regenerate from Ordinemon's miasma burns.
Utilizing her Summon Apocalypse, Ordinemon flapped her wings, dropping a bunch of black feathers that transformed into an army of Virus Digimon. A bunch of Bakemon, Devidramon, Vilemon, Devimon, and other demonic creatures. The Synister Lords readily prepared for the swarm of demons. They conjured immense Ki energies and fired beams that wiped out the viral Digimon.
Ordinemon quickly flew across faster than ever, unleashing an omnidirectional attack that involved her two jewels doubling as weapons of destruction. As she cast her Magna Visibility, the jewels fired immense beams at the Synister lords.
Kain stepped forward and conjured a barrier that absorbed Ordinemon's attack. He charged at Ordinemon and punched her face with a punch. A single punch sent Ordinemon sailing through a building.
"Know your place, you abomination. Your role is to kneel before your kings," Kain talked down to Ordinemon.
Pulling herself out of the rubble, Ordinemon stared down the Synister Lord trio. She let out a defiant screech and shot forward, looking to tear into Kain. Kain responded by summoning blades from his shoulders. He used them to defend against Ordinemon's vicious attacks. Kain then seized Ordinemon's neck and tossed her aside.
"Your efforts are futile," Kain scoffed.
As Ordinemon rose ready to fight, Amon and Bael prepared to kill her, but Kain beckoned them off.
"I must commend you. You're still able to fight us? You have our respect, creature," Kain smirked evilly, watching Ordinemon floating up.
Ordinemon let out a monstrous scream; one that sounded angrier than before. From the disapproving look on Kain's face, her screeches could've been translated as insults to put down the Synister Lord.
Being a thick-skinned warrior, Kain took in the beast's unflattering words and closed his eyes.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAH!" Kain laughed. "Ordinemon, I take it? Feel honored that you're about to meet your end at our hands. In fact, we'll do you one even better." He snapped his fingers, calling Amon and Bael over. "Let's see what happens when you try and fight the combined might of the Synister Lords! Amon, Bael!"
Heeding their brothers' call, Amon and Bael stood on Kain's opposite sides. Amon knelt down in front of Kain. Bael stood behind Kain. They hummed a hymn, praising themselves and their divine might. Then, a dark purple aura enveloped the trio, combining them into a singular Synister Lord.
The trio combined to a Synister wearing armor akin to Armityle the Chaos Phantom. The merged Synister lord's appearance took on a chimeric demon-like appearance. The central body was a giant, black serpentine-like body with four dragon wings sprouting from the opposite sides. The head of the beast resembled a horned demon with a terrifying visage. Covering the demon's neck was blue flames that doubled as a mane. The heads of various animals, including a grasshopper, a bull, a snake, a lizard, and an ox poked out of its blue flamed mane. Emerging from the top of the demon's back and mane was Kain's phantom spirit.
Ordinemon had enough recovery time to pull herself up to fight again.
The Combined Synister chortled darkly, settings his sights on Ordinemon. "Now, let your execution be swift. And let this be a message to those who dare to oppose the Synister Lords! Together, we are Kamoael!" Having rechristened himself with a new name fitting for one supreme king, he flew into Ordinemon and blasted her with bluish flames.
Legolas came too late to save Ordinemon, who was being pummeled by the Combined Synister.
Upon seeing the behemoths fight, Team Xros Heart combined their entire Digimon arsenal into Shoutmon X7F Superior Mode.
The Planetary Senshi (YYGDM-01 and DF-616 Prime), the Spirit Detectives, Inuyasha, Sakura, Tenchi, and Ryoko stormed ahead to face Kamoael the Combined Synister Lord.

"Die!" Burizalor (DF-616 Prime) roared, diving toward Max (DF-616 Prime) and Angemon X (DF-811 Prime). He fired multiple Death Beams at them.
Max (DF-616 Prime) fired back with a one-handed Tsunami Wave, taking out Burizalor (DF-616 Prime)'s blasts. Angemon X (DF-811 Prime) jumped up and drew out his sword. He attempted to repeat history by slicing Burizalor (DF-616 Prime) in half, but the tyrant saw this coming and evaded the Time Patroller's sword. Burizalor (DF-616 Prime) unleashed a hand wave, knocking Angemon X (DF-811 Prime) back with a Death Wave. Ultima X (DF-616 Prime) recovered and flew over to sneak attack the tyrant, but Burizalor (DF-616 Prime) fired a Death Beam through Ultima X (DF-616 Prime)'s torso, killing him.
"Vengeance is mine! That's one down, two to go…!" Burizalor (DF-616 Prime) avenged his last death at the hands of Ultima X (DF-616 Prime).
"DAVIS!" Max (DF-616 Prime) shouted. "Now you've done it!" He rushed Burizalor (DF-616 Prime) and punched him.
Burizalor (DF-616 Prime) parries Max (DF-616 Prime)'s punches.
"How fitting I get to kill Taichi's son! After you, then that blasted swordsman will fall!"
"Getting way ahead of yourself, Burizalor!" Max (DF-616 Prime) readied a Tsunami Wave.
"C'mon, meet your end!" The tyrant snarled, preparing to blast him.
As Max (DF-616 Prime) went to blast him, he vanished out of the tyrant's view. This fake-out threw Burizalor (DF-616 Prime), leaving himself unguarded.
Slash!
Angemon X (DF-811 Prime) sword slashed Burizalor (DF-616 Prime), but did so behind his back. Burizalor (DF-616 Prime) saw his torso being sliced through. Max (DF-616 Prime) ran at Burizalor (DF-616 Prime) and obliterated him with a one-handed Tsunami Wave.
"Thanks, Dimitri."
"Luckily I got the drop on him the way I did."
"But, we did lose Davis," Max (DF-616 Prime) eyed Ultima X (DF-616 Prime)'s body. "Let's find a place for his body and regroup with the other."
"Got it," Angemon X (DF-811 Prime) picked up Ultima X's body. "You go find your friends. I'll catch up."
"Right."

Virus (DF-616 Prime) held Keke (DF-616 Prime) by the throat and pinned WarAngemon (DF-616 Prime) down under his foot. Celesta X (DF-616 Prime) rose to her feet, finding herself in a similar situation as before.
"Surrender now, or these two will die," Virus (DF-616 Prime) chortled. "After you concede, allow me the honor to end your life."
"Never!" Celesta X (DF-616 Prime) resisted.
"Then, you'll throw these two's lives needlessly. Oh well, not my problem!" Virus (DF-616 Prime) crunched Keke (DF-616 Prime)'s throat and pressed harder on WarAngemon (DF-616 Prime)'s head.
Having seen enough, Celesta X (DF-616 Prime) tapped into her Mystic powers and phased out. Virus (DF-616 Prime) blinked and before he realized it, both of his captives were whisked away from his clutches. Virus (DF-616 Prime) turned to see Mystic Celesta (DF-616 Prime) holding both.
"I won't be beaten by you again!" Virus (DF-616 Prime) growled as he fired a Super Tsunami Wave.
Mystic Celesta (DF-616 Prime) fired back with a Super Holy Beam, which clashed with Virus' beam. They both remembered their very first eventful beam struggle. Only now Mystic Celesta (DF-616 Prime) had good use of two arms. Virus (DF-616 Prime) gained an upper hand and pushed back against his nemesis.
"You're going to die here, Hikari!"
"Not a chance…!" Mystic Celesta (DF-616 Prime) struggled.
WarAngemon (DF-616 Prime) got up and saw his wife about to be overtaken. He instinctively jumped at this chance and helped by firing a Ki beam, which boosted Mystic Celesta (DF-616 Prime)'s attack.
"Damn it, Takeru! Stay out of thi-!" Virus (DF-616 Prime) gaped as the Bearers of Hope and Light's Crest marks appeared on their chests.
"Let's end this now, Kari!"
"Yeah!"
Mystic Celesta (DF-616 Prime) and WarAngemon (DF-616 Prime) unleashed a combined Miraculous Beam. Virus (DF-616 Prime) upped his ante and fired with all his might. The opposing sides' beams collided fast, igniting an explosion that wiped all three out.
Keke (DF-616 Prime) awoke to witness not just Virus (DF-616 Prime) perish, but the two heroes die as well.
"No, TK! Kari!" Keke (DF-616 Prime) cried out.
Just then, Max (DF-616 Prime) arrived to check on his girlfriend. Keke (DF-616 Prime) tearfully told him about the end result.
"Kari and TK sacrificed themselves…?" Max (DF-616 Prime) tried to take it in, but stayed strong and hugged Keke (DF-616 Prime). "Don't worry we're going to restore them after this is said and done. I hope…"

Taking full advantage of her downed opponents, B-Reaper (DF-616 Prime) floated into the air and raised her hand. She quickly forged her planet-killing Deletion Bomb.
"HEHEH, NOW DIE ALL OF YOU!" B-Reaper screeched madly, preparing to toss the energy sphere at them.
However, a red wave collided with B-Reaper, blowing off half of her lower body. B-Reaper quickly turned around as the Beast Tamers intervened on the good guys' behalf.
"I don't think so, D… Reaper...?" Guilkatomon balked at B-Reaper. "Or, should I call you G-Reaper?"
"G-Reaper?" Inumuramon asked.
"Yeah, Genderbender-Reaper."
"Ugh, forget it, Takato. Let's just get to destroying it," Renrukimon said.
Gallantmon Crimson Mode (DF-616 Prime) gawked at Guilkatomon. "Hey, it's the other me! Wow, this is your super form?! Talk about wicked cool."
MegaGargomon (DF-616 Prime) added, eyeing Terryamon. "Seems we found ways to perfect our mergers with our Digimon."
Terryamon answered. "You won't know the half of it, other Henry."
Sakuyamon (DF-616 Prime) remarked. "And they got a fourth member. Well, at least it's not Ryo."
Kaimodosu X AM was given enough time to recover. "All right, let's forget the chit-chat! We have an urgent situation here!"
B-Reaper expanded her Deletion Bomb, which grew ten times as big. She tossed the destructive ball at the group. Kaimodosu X AM, Guilkatomon, and Gallantmon CM (DF-616 Prime) took on the sphere head-on.
"Let's send this thing off world!" Guilkatomon declared, forging a bigger Hazard Wave that collided with B-Reaper's sphere.
Gallantmon CM (DF-616 Prime) cast Final Justice toward the sphere. Kaimodosu X AM waved her saber, sending a powerful energy wave that collided with B-Reaper's sphere.
The trio's combined efforts worked to perfection as they sent the sphere off the planet. B-Reaper regenerated her lower half and retaliated with a Ki barrage. As the trio fought through the Ki barrage, the others weren't so fortunate and were blasted back.
"No, guys!" Guilkatomon cried out. "That's it!" He powered up as a red aura flared over his body.
"Don't worry about us! Just take that thing down!" Renrukimon yelled out.
"Go for it, Takato!" Sakuyamon (DF-616 Prime) then sacrificed her armor and sent healing properties to empower the trio.
Upon receiving Sakuyamon (DF-616 Prime)'s healing power, the trio flew up to finish B-Reaper. Guilkatomon and Gallantmon CM (DF-616 Prime)'s crimson auras merged, offering each other quick boosts. Guilkatomon sent a red beam that tore through B-Reaper's left half of her body. Gallantmon CM then used Invincible Sword to slice B-Reaper into ribbons. Kaimodosu X AM readied her saber.
"It's over, evil D-Reaper!" Kaimodosu X AM declared as B-Reaper quickly started regenerating. She made short work of B-Reaper, slicing her up into bits and cleansing her remains. "There, no more evil doings for you, D-Reaper." She quickly flew down to see Dorothy (DF-616 Prime) and Avengemon (DF-616 Prime). Dorothy (DF-616 Prime) sacrificed herself to save Kaimodosu X AM from one of B-Reaper's fatal blows. "Even though we're from different universes, we're still one and the same. And you sacrificed yourself for me. I won't let your sacrifice be in vain."
Avengemon (DF-616 Prime) picked up his partner's body.
Gallantmon CM (DF-616 Prime) confronted Guilkatomon. "Hey, thanks for helping us, Takato."
Guilkatomon replied in kind. "Sure, no problem. Now, how about we clear some more bad guys?"
"Let's do it for your friend," Inumuramon said.
"This one's for our Dorothy," Gallantmon CM (DF-616 Prime) nodded.

Silver Furizlor had his fair share of problems with Hit, Xander, GokuGreymon, and VegetaGarurumon. Despite his new boost, Hit's abilities still made it hard for Silver Furizlor to get much of an offensive.
"Damn it all! I should be dominating you!" Silver Furizlor ranted, growing frustrated as Hit parried his blows. He launched himself at Hit, only go through a glass reflection. Silver Furizlor saw several glass mirrors in an abandoned building. He scanned each mirror. He heard movement and turned to fire a blast at Hit, but it turned out to be a mirror. Damn him! He's suppressing his presence!
"Furizlor," Hit announced his presence as he phased in front of Silver Furizlor.
"Augh! You…!" Silver Furizalor snarled as he threw a punch, but Hit knocked him back after a quick Timeskip.
"Furizlor! It's over!" Xander called out as he, GokuGreymon, and VegetaGarurumon descended inside the abandoned warehouse. "You'd best surrender now because you can't win!"
Silver Furizlor snarled. "Annoying pissants. You won't take me back alive!" He powered up as his body pumped up with a muscular frame, which was similar to Burizalor's 100 percent form. "C'mon!"
Silver Furizlor rushed at his four former comrades. Xander powered up into Ascendant form and clashed with Silver Furizlor. Silver Furizlor kicked Xander back. GokuGreymon and VegetaGarurumon rushed Silver Furizlor from the sides. The silver-skinned Corrupt jumped up and blasted them with eye beams.
"Now, it's your turn, you sneaky bas-!" Silver Furizlor saw Hit disappear again. Where is he now?! He scanned the room and finally spotted Hit. "I have you now!" He hastily dove toward Hit and attempted to slam into him. When he said, he seemingly phased through Hit's body, who made his body transparent. "Bwuh?! What the hell?!"
Click! Bam!
Hit landed a pressure point in Silver Furizlor's chest. The Corrupt doubled over in pain as he dropped to a knee.
"Damn you, Hit…" Silver Furizlor growled, succumbing to the assassin's blow.
"All right, it's time to make the donuts," Hit said, preparing to knock Silver Furizlor out.
(End theme)
Boom!
The roof to the warehouse exploded and collapsed. Everyone looked up and saw Apocaly X drop in seemingly to save Silver Furizlor. Hit prepared to stop Apocaly X, but Apocaly X snatched the assassin with one of his Apocalymon claws and tossed him aside.
"Burizalor! What took you?!" Silver Furizlor yelled out, relieved to see his rescuer.
"Ohohoho, it seems they gave you problems, Furizlor. Allow me to take out the trash," Apocaly X turned to Xander, GokuGreymon, and VegetaGarurumon, who readied battle stances.
"Now that we're together, these four can't possibly beat us!" Silver Furizlor boasted.
Just then, Apocaly X snuck an evil grin. "By the way, you misunderstand me, Furizlor. When I meant trash, I didn't mean them."
Silver Furizlor blinked. "...huh?"
Whoosh!
Apocaly X quickly snatched Silver Furizlor with an Apocalymon claw and crushed him.
"What are you doing, Burizalor?! What's the meaning of this?!"
"The trash I was referring to is you. Did you really think I'd team with a reject like you?! There can be only one evil tyrant in the universe!" Apocaly X cackled, spinning around and tossing Silver Furizlor into the air.
"Why in the world is he turning against Furizlor?!" Xander exclaimed.
Hit recovered in time to see Apocaly X charging up for a big beam attack.
"Seems we won't be bringing back the traitor," Hit muttered. And there goes my bounty pay.
"YOU DIRTY SCHEMING BASTARD!" Silver Furizlor screamed.
"Ohohoho, yes I am, but I'm at least upfront about how I conduct my evil nature!" Apocaly X yelled out. "And I have no use for a dead weight like you! And thus this ends our business relationship. Goodbye." He launched a massive beam akin to his Death Beam, which collided with Silver Furizlor and vaporized him in one blast.
Boom!
And with that, Furizlor was no more.
Apocaly X sighed with relief. "Now, that takes care of him." Before he could turn and face the Digiverse 6 fighters, he saw Max & Gundamon GM, Keke & WingGundamon, Houou X, and Rosemon X descend near him. "You managed to find me. Well, since you and these Digiverse 6 warriors are together, I get to kill two birds with one stone by taking you all out."
"Fat chance of that happening, Burizalor. You're still outnumbered and you gave us the slip so you can recuperate your energies," Max spoke out of Gundamon GM.
"On top of that, you have us to worry about," GokuGreymon said.
Apocaly X quickly shot out his Apocalymon claws, attempting to grab his adversaries. The DF-616 and Digiverse 6 heroes dodged being deleted by Apocaly X's claws. WingGundamon conjured two massive Rosemary Discs, which cut off two of Apocaly X's claws. Houou X unleashed a fire variation of the Terra Beam/Tsunami Wave, which she aptly called her Phoenix Wave. Houou X blasted one Apocaly X away. Rosemon X took out a thorny vine whip and took out another claw.
"Enough!" Apocaly X hissed, firing multiple Death Beams at his opponents.
Xander channeled Ki through his legs and shattered a claw with a kick. GokuGreymon formed a variation of WarGreymon's Terra Force, which he aptly called his Terra Bomb. He tossed it and blew off another claw. VegetaGarurumon conjured a Ki ball made of ice into his palms and fired off his Cocytus Gun, which froze and shattered another claw.
"Ugh, damn you!" Apocaly X hissed with fury. He prepared to put up his guard. Then Gundamon GM phased in front of him and fired a full-powered Tsunami Wave right in his face. Apocaly X screamed in agony as the beam sent him flying far back.
"C'mon, after him!" Gundamon GM called out.
As everyone went straight for Apocaly X, Hit paused and sensed Zeed X's presence. He decided against pursuing Apocaly X and went straight for the Big Bad himself.
Apocaly X crash landed in an open area and slowly pulled himself up. He shook off the damage his foes did to him.
"Blast them. They'll pay for this…!" Apocaly X scowled.
Just then, both Belial X and GalacticNova X arrived in a similar fashion as Apocaly X. However, in GalacticNova X's case, he got punched back thanks to a combined effort by Masaru, ShineGreymon BM, and FloraNova X. Masaru finally punched GalacticNova X and amassed enough power from the Legendary Ascendant to empower himself and ShineGreymon BM. Belial X was overtaken and blown away by Celesta X HM's Homeostasis Light.
The heroes who fought Belial X and GalacticNova X followed them to the exact location. The Beast Tamers and Tamers (DF-616 Prime) also join in.
"Looks like we kicked the bad guy's butts if we're all here!" Ultima X boasted.
"Um, duh, Davis, of course, we did," WarAngemon gawked at his friend's obvious statement.
Masaru raised a fist. "And I finally got to hit that big green-haired freak! Man, what a rush of power me and ShineGreymon BM felt when we took in his power!"
ShineGreymon BM added passionately. "It was the biggest DigiSoul Charge I've ever felt!"
Tamara patted FloraNova X's broad shoulder. "And Willow here gave that look-alike of hers a run for his dollars! Right, Willow? You didn't back down at all!"
FloraNova X roared. "Yeah!"
The other heroes who weren't there to see Willow's 'Legendary' transformation were baffled by FloraNova X's physical resemblance to GalacticNova X. Xander freaked out at the sight of FloraNova X.
"Oh gosh… you didn't…" Xander gulped, remembering being chased and beaten up by Willow's berserk FloraNova X state.
"Sorry, Xander, but I had to do it! And we needed that side of her to fight that big burly dude over there!" Tamara pointed to GalacticNova X.
"Wow, so that other big power that felt like Yagami was her?" Celesta X HM was taken back.
"Dude, she looks just like Yagami if he were a girl!" Ultima X marveled at FloraNova X's hulking presence.
"But, thankfully she's fighting for us," Zordiark X said.
"Wait until we tell Sam about this," Keke mentioned to Max.
"I don't think he'd take it well…" Max then turned toward their three enemies.
Belial X grunted, trying to stand. "So, you two got your asses kicked bad, too? You especially look worse for wear, Burizalor."
Apocaly X scoffed. "Look who's talking."
GalacticNova X gritted his teeth. "I'm ready to fight some more!"
(Cue Neurotech - Stigma - 03 - Of Adversity)
Apocaly X regained his composure and chuckled. "Well, Yagami, you'll get that chance, but it won't be individually. Why don't we combine our powers and finish them off in one fell swoop?"
Belial X sighed. "What other choice do we have at this point? I'd rather not get killed again."
Gundamon GM yelled out in Max's voice. "We won't even give you the chance! Let's take them down now!"
With that, the heroes rushed the villainous trio. However, Belial X saw a light post with a still glowing bulb. The crafty bio-artificial flew over under the light and put his hands over his face. He used the Solar Wave, using the light to unleash a blinding flash of white light, which blindsided the heroes.
"Damn! Should've seen this coming!" WarAngemon exclaimed.
"Can't see!" Guilkatomon shouted.
"Now, while we still have time!" Belial X called his two colleagues.
"Yes, let us cross fuse!" Apocaly X announced.
As the trio's bodies glowed with light, Apocaly X, Belial X, and GalacticNova X fused into an extremely powerful being that has the base figure of GalacticNova X with the greenish-golden spiky hair and an insane facial appearance. The being's mask helmet combined Apocaly X and Belial X's features. It also gained Apocaly X's purple winged cape, Belial X's black upper chest plate, and Belial X's legs and stinger tail. They combined being referred to himself as ChaosNova X.
The heroes' visions clarified as they finally got a look at ChaosNova X, who towered over them.
"Yes, open those eyes. Feast your eyes on your impending demise!" ChaosNova X cackled with Burizalor, Virus, and GalacticNova X's combined laughter.
"Oh god, now we have to fight them in their combined form?!" Rosemon X gaped in aghast at the merged entity.
"We don't have a choice, Mimi," Houou X muttered.
WingGundamon replied in Keke's voice. "Just stay behind me and I'll guard you, Mimi."
"So, we're really doing this," Xander said.
"Heh, fine with me. I'm getting fired up!" Tamara boasted.
Celesta X HM turned to WarAngemon. "Are you still able to fight?"
WarAngemon nodded. "Of course, and I won't rest until every bad guy here is beaten."
"We're ready for you, Burizalor, Virus, and Yagami!" Max called him to attack.
Chortling evilly, ChaosNova X shot forward ready to engage them, but then he phased out of thin air. This alarmed the group as they sensed the villainous entity's presence behind them. However, they were too late to respond to ChaosNova X's next attack. ChaosNova X amassed a green sphere and tossed his Chaotic Galactic Cannon, which swept away the majority of the heroes.
ChaosNova X shot up at GokuGreymon and VegetaGarurumon first. He punched through GokuGreymon's chest and blasted him back. He then face grabbed VegetaGarurumon and punched him so hard he snapped the Spirian Warrior's neck.
Some cringed and looked on in horror at how easy ChaosNova X killed the Spirians.
"No!" Xander yelled in horror.
"All right, you've crossed the line, you big bastard!" Tamara cried out as she and FloraNova X rushed ChaosNova X.
"Tamara, Willow! Don't!" Xander pleaded to his friends.
ChaosNova X flew at Tamara and blasted her back with another Chaotic Galactic Cannon. FloraNova X tried grabbing and bear hugging ChaosNova X, but the merged entity drove several elbow shots into her gut. FloraNova X doubled over, leaving herself open to ChaosNova X's Chaotic Tsunami Wave. The blast hit FloraNova X so hard her power diminished and she lost her muscular form. Having lost her FloraNova X form, Willow crashed near Tamara.
ChaosNova X cackled. "Does anyone else want a taste of my raw power?"
"We'll take you on!" Guilkatomon and Gallantmon CM (DF-616 Prime) answered his challenge.
The Beast Tamers and the Tamers (DF-616 Prime) engaged ChaosNova X. Though they had a greater numbers advantage, they fared no better than the Spirian duo, Tamara, and Willow. ChaosNova X overpowered Guilkatomon and smashed him into Gallantmon CM (DF-616 Prime). The other Tamers tried to attack him from all sides. ChaosNova X unleashed a barrier, sending them flying back. ChaosNova X amassed a decently sizable Death Ball, which he tossed at the other Tamers. MegaGargomon (DF-616 Prime) charged and caught the Death Ball.
"Fool," ChaosNova X snickered as the black sphere exploded and wiped MegaGargomon (DF-616 Prime) out.
"HENRY!" Gallantmon CM (DF-616 Prime) and Sakuyamon (DF-616 Prime) shouted.
"You heartless bastard!" Inumuramon snapped, quickly drawing out his Byakko Fang. He charged and swung the blade at ChaosNova X, who stopped it with his hand.
ChaosNova X grunted. "What do you think you'll do with that, little dog man? Down boy!" He swiftly kicked Inumuramon back and tossed the Byakko Fang back at him.
"Who's next?" ChaosNova X asked. His challenge was answered when Guilkatomon and Renrukimon blasted him from behind. He barely even flinched. "Thanks for the massage, but I didn't ask for permission." He turned and flew at them quickly, hitting them both with his stinger tail.
"Hey, you big bastard! Did you forget me?!" Masaru announced as ChaosNova X turned to face him and ShineGreymon BM.
ChaosNova X tapped his face. "I dare you to hit me again."
"Don't complain if I leave a mark on that ugly face!" Masaru jumped up to punch ChaosNova X's face.
"Heh, I don't think so!" ChaosNova X whipped around and knocked Masaru back with his stinger tail.
ShineGreymon BM jumped in and caught Masaru.
"No offense, but as dumb as I can be, that was stupid, Aniki."
"Yeah… never doing that again."
ChaosNova X saw Gundamon GM, WingGundamon, Houou X, Rosemon X, Celesta X HM, WarAngemon, Ultima X, Zordiark X, and Xander surround him. The merged entity wasted no time fighting them off.
Meanwhile, Tamara awoke to see Willow barely stirring.
"Hey, can you still move, Willow?"
"Tamara?"
"Do you remember those 'devices' that Lord Champamon gave us before we came here?"
Willow recalled. "Those earrings?"
"Yeah, the Fuseha earrings, or whatever he called them," Tamara reached into her pocket and took out two green-colored earrings. "He told us to snap these things onto our ears. So, if I put this on my left and you put yours in your right, we'll combine into some really awesome warrior."
"But, will it be enough?"
"Won't know until we try 'em, sweetie," Tamara smirked as she tossed an earring to Willow.
Willow picked up her earring. "Ok, let's do this." She put hers on her left ear.
"Let's hope for the best outta this!" Tamara put hers on her right ear.
With that, Tamara and Willow felt a strong force pulling them forward. As they collided, a bright flash of light enveloped them. Everyone briefly stopped fighting and witnessed a bright light emanating from where the two Ascendant girls were laying.
That light! Max thought. "Did those two do what I think they did?!"
"Here I come!" A newcomer's voice boastfully announced; the tone sounded exactly like Tamara and Willow as if their voices were synchronized.
A blur of green light sped right by and materialized next to the heroes. A figure stood basked in a healthy green glow.
"Wait a minute… Tamara?! Willow?!" Xander exclaimed.
As the green light dimmed, the newcomer was revealed to all. The new warrior was a young and slender young woman with an average height; she was as tall as Sora was. She has a muscular build like Willow, but more trimmed down, unlike FloraNova X's gargantuan build. Her hairstyle is a mix of Tamara and Willow's; she has Tamara's spiky hair and bangs that framed the sides of her face. The rest of the hair was tied in a ponytail like Willow's. Her face and eyes are similar to Tamara's. Her clothing consisted of a purple belly shirt and form-fitting purple pants. She wore Willow's golden wristbands. On her ears are the instruments responsible for the fusion: the Fuseha earrings. Her demeanor exuded extreme confidence, indicating that Tamara being the supposed dominant personality.
"Whoa! How cool is that?!" Ultima X exclaimed.
Zordiark X sighed. "You're always easy to impress, Davis, but I can see why anyone could be in awe."
Celesta X HM nodded. "The last time Fuseha earrings were used, my brother and Matt used them to fight Zamasmon." She recalled what her brother told her since she wasn't there to witness Kaiser X's return.
"So, what do y'all call yourselves?" Guilkatomon asked the fused warrior.
"Let's see," the fused Ascendant thought. "Willow and Tamara… how about Willmara? Nah, Tillow? Nah, no good! Oooh, I've got it!" The fused Ascendant announced. "Wimara! Yeah, that rolls off the tongue better!"
"Um, I hate to interrupt, but the bad guy's about to transform if he hasn't already!" Rosemon X alarmed her friends.
"And he ain't wasting time!" Max exclaimed.
Wimara stood ready to fight. She punched a fist into her palm. "Xander, let's avenge our friends, GokuGreymon and VegetaGarurumon. Let's honor them by kicking this big jerk's sorry ass!"
"No arguments from me. For our comrades." Xander furrowed his brows and nodded.
ChaosNova X increased his height to Kaijuu-size and changed his outward appearance despite his attire staying the same. His face became more akin to Godzilla with his hair flowing down up to his humongous stinger tail. His hands and feet became beast-like claws. He has unlocked his new form: Extinction Mode.
"Extinction has come for you, scum," ChaosNova X declared. A bright green aura with layers of yellow and purple overlapping on top of the other glowed around him. "This is your final stand, and I'll make this world your gravesite!"

(Cue Evanescence – Everybody's Fool)
Zeed landed successive blows to Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime), who put up his guard. Himo Saitou flew over and landed a roundhouse kick to Zeed's face, knocking him back. Zeed barely flinched from Saitou's kick and grinned.
"You hit like a child," Zeed chuckled. "I barely felt that."
"Nice try, but you aren't going to get under my skin," Saitou maintained discipline despite Zeed's dickish taunts.
"Yeah, best not to let him get to you. The best we can do is beat him until he can go no more, but we better hurry," the fused warrior reminded the Dark Angel. "I have a time limit in his state."
"Right, how long?"
"Two minutes tops," Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) warned.
"Then, let's end this now," Saitou turned his gaze toward Zeed.
"Stupid fools, I'll kill you both before the time limit ends!" Zeed roared as he flew at the warriors.
Just then, a barrage of arrows pierced Zeed's body. The arrows spontaneously exploded all over Zeed.
The source of these arrows came from Ultimate Madoka. Moon and Houou Mars appeared beside her.
"Hey, it's the Sailor Moon from that other dimension and her friends!" Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) became elated by the magical girls' intervention.
"Glad we made it in time!" Ultimate Madoka said.
"Since we're here, our fighting chances are much better," Houou Mars plainly said.
Moon pointed to Zeed. "Yeah, we crashed your party. Got a problem?"
"Seeing you all here, it's time for me to unleash my full power! DARK UNIVERSAL SHINKA!" Zeed shouted.
Zeed powered up as he is encased inside a cloud of dark smoke. As the smoke immediately cleared, he revealed his final form. His entire body was coated with blackish gray tough reptilian hide. Zeed had taken the form of a tall, muscular bipedal dragon with long, skinny limbs. His head is erected into a serpentine neck. The head itself was small with a draconian appearance. His Brahma bull horns are retained. Zeed's wings are retained, but their wingspan was wider than his own body. Spikes grew out of Zeed's shoulders. His long hooked tail is retained. Zeed unleashed a thunderous roar that shook the dimension. This is the same final form he once used to fight Galactic X.
Despite how large and terrifying Zeed became, the heroes remained fearless in the presence of this great adversity.
"So, whatever y'all got that can hurt this guy, go right ahead and use that," Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) encouraged the others to go all out.
"Oh, wouldn't you like to know?" Houou Mars replied with a determined glare. She invoked her Houou cloak, letting the fiery aura cover her entirely.
Utilizing her Silver Crystal, Moon transformed into Neo-Queen Serenity.
Ultimate Madoka readied and fired a barrage of her Nebula Arrows. Neo-Queen Serenity conjured and condensed a ball of silver light, which she then fired from out of her hands. Houou Mars bathed herself in Houou's flames and launched a wave of flames. Himo Saitou forged a dark purple ball and kicked it, sending hundreds of smaller energy blasts.
Zeed then fired an Apocalypse Wrath from his mouth at the heroes and quickly wiped out their attacks. The heroes swiftly evaded the destructive blasts, which flew far off into the distance and exploded. The force of the explosion shook the entire planet.
Kaiser (DF-616 Prime) shot up and punched Zeed's head. After dazing Zeed with successive punches, Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) then slid forward, unloading with a barrage of rapid kicks and knee lifts into Zeed's face. He then flew past the stunned behemoth, kneed him twice in the back of the back, and performed a backflip, kicking his head up. Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) then conjured a rainbow-colored energy sphere in his left palm. Readying his Stardust Breaker, he turned, crushed the sphere in his hand, and tossed a scattered energy blast of rainbow beams that penetrated through Zeed's body. The energies from Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime)'s attack surged and attempted to disintegrate the monster's soul from within.
Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) then conjured his 1000X Ice Barrier Terra Beam and unleashed it full force in Zeed's face. Zeed roared in pain as the blast engulfed and exploded, dealing damage to the behemoth.
Boom!
A massive explosion occurred and shook the entire planet, which demonstrated the full strength of the Digital Fused warrior.
However, as the smoke dispersed, Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) gaped in shock as Zeed was revealed to be alive. Granted, Zeed's body took plenty of damage and it showed with most of his body destroyed.
"What the hell is it going to take?!" Saitou gritted.
"Sailor Moon, Madoka, we better get in there fast!" Houou Mars suggested.
Zeed opened his mouth and roared loudly. Dark energies leaked out of his body and started healing his wounds.
"One more shot and you're done!" Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) declared as he readied another 1000X Ice Barrier Terra Beam.
Zeed didn't give him the chance and swung his hooked tail at Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime). The fused warrior narrowly dodged and prepared to fire his finishing attack.
"Eat this…!" Kaiser X (DF-616 Prime) abruptly stopped mid-way as he split back to Omega X (DF-616 Prime) and Metalla X (DF-616 Prime).
"Oh crap!" Omega X (DF-616 Prime) squeaked in shock.
"Look out!" Metalla X (DF-616 Prime) warned.
Bam!
Zeed quickly swatted the DigiMazoku and the Level 4 Digitally Fused warrior away. Omega X (DF-616 Prime) crash landed on top of a rooftop. Metalla X (DF-616 Prime) fell into Tokyo Tower. Saitou quickly headed down to check on Omega X (DF-616 Prime).
"Taichi!" Saitou called out as he tended to his former enemy.
"Talk about bad timing… if that last attack connected, he probably would've been done."
Saitou sighed, shaking his head. "Doubtful. His power was beyond our measure."
"Nah, he's definitely less powerful than the other Zeed. Me and Matt's fusion would've beaten that big freak," Omega X (DF-616 Prime) watched as Houou Mars, Neo-Queen Serenity, and Ultimate Madoka attacked Zeed. "If anything, those three have a better shot of destroying him."
Saitou looked up and observed. "Perhaps, all three possess divine powers even beyond my imagination."
Houou Mars unleashed shockwave blasts strong enough to punch holes into Zeed's body. Neo-Queen Serenity's silver aura burned most of its reptilian skin. Zeed fired the spikes from his shoulders. Ultimate Madoka intercepted Zeed's spikes with his Nebula Arrows. Houou Mars fired pyrokinetic blasts that burned and consumed Zeed's body. Zeed hastened his regeneration and healed all his wounds caused by the three cosmic-powered women.
"Heheh, you three will be even more interesting challengers. You're inflicting more damage to me than the fused warrior," Zeed acknowledged the power the three magical women possessed. "Let's make things even more interesting!" He flapped his wings and propelled straight into the air.
"After him, but let's be cautious," Neo-Queen Serenity professed.
"Right!" Houou Mars and Ultimate Madoka replied.
The magical girl trio shot up and followed Zeed. As the trio reached Zeed, the sky became their new battleground. What followed were a series of explosions that lit up the skies and wiped away more of the laughing Mist clouds.

"TAKE THIS!" Kaiser X defiantly roared as he and Zeed X clashed head-on. Their fists connected as their surroundings bathed in a mix of blue and green fiery waves.
Both Kaiser X and Zeed X roared out loudly in each other's faces.
Zeed X then started coughing mid-way through their hardcore roars. "...ack...ack… how the hell do you keep this up? Y'know we could be in the middle of some death metal concert. Don't you think…?"
Bam!
Kaiser X punched Zeed X's head clean off.
"I prefer the classics myself," Kaiser X replied, exhibiting Matt's personal taste in music.
Zeed X regrew a new head. "Touche. Anyway, wanna pick up where we left off?"
"Make your move," Kaiser X waved him to attack.
As Zeed X stepped forward, pillars of ice dropped and formed a wall over him. Dai-Valkyrie Sedna swooped down and unleashed a barrage of Icicle Spears at the anomalous being. Hundreds of icicles pierced into Zeed X, turning him into a human porcupine. Super Angemon X phased right in front of Zeed X and blasted him head-on with a full-powered Final Blaze.
Super Angemon X jumped back and launched a massive Ki beam that wiped out the ice walls and seemingly Zeed X as well. Sedna quickly landed next to Angemon X. They prepared for the absolute worst and cautiously prepped a double team attack.
"That was some brilliant teamwork, you two. I give it a 4 out of 5. Could've been a perfect 5 if ya killed me!" Zeed X was heard clapping his hands.
Super Angemon X and Sedna watched the icy smoke clear away, revealing a dummy Zeed X burned and covered in ice. Kaiser X scanned the area and quickly spotted Zeed X sitting on a rooftop, playing the violin. After discarding the instrument, he hopped off the roof and landed near the couple.
"What else do ya got?" Zeed X beckoned them to attack him.
Super Angemon X and Sedna held their ground against Zeed X. Kaiser X instantly appeared in front of the couple using Instant Movement.
"You want them? You'll have to get by me," Kaiser X dared him to attack.
"Why not?" Zeed X raised a hand.
Just then, dark magic projectiles appeared and blasted Zeed X head-on. Zeed X took no damage as he turned to see Devil Homura causing it. Tempus Pluto, Volodramon, and Hit appear beside her.
"Pluto!" Sedna happily cried out.
Kaiser X was baffled by the assassin's presence. "Hit? What are you doing here?"
Hit answered, intently glaring down Zeed X's direction. "Where else, but where the biggest threat is located. This is where I need to be."
"Ah, the multi-players have come, and congrats on making Charon cease to exist." Zeed X remarked, acknowledging Tempus Pluto's loss. "Although, I must admit, Sailor Pluto. Your sister has earned my respect. To be so defiant and fight hard to the bitter end of her life, she didn't give up. I knew she planned to take the power I gave her and turn that against me. I can't blame or hate her for resorting to those measures. This fight of ours will be dedicated to her." He conjured a black rose and dropped it. "But, you needn't worry, Pluto. Soon you'll cease to exist as well and you'll share your late-sister's anguish."
Tempus Pluto readied her Garnet Staff. "I've put everything about Charon behind me. That's the past. You're my enemy now!"
Volodramon nodded. "We're not dwelling on the past anymore!"
Devil Homura took on a battle stance. "We will send you into oblivion. I can promise you that for all the pain you caused the other Homura!"
Zeed X shrugged. "Ok, ok, let's not get overly dramatic here. I just wanna kick your asses. Oh by the way, since my previous incarnation went all dragon mode and stuff, guess what? I can, too!"
With that said, Zeed X turned himself into a giant dragon-like beast that had the same colors and hair retained as his base form with ZeedMillenniummon traits. He turned into a muscularly built bipedal, gained a snake-like neck, Brahma bull horns on his head, a huge wingspan with three sharp claws on each wing, knife-like spikes protruding out of Zeed X's shoulders, and developed a hooked tail.
"Now try THIS!" Zeed X screeched.
With that, Zeed X unleashed an attack called Dominus Destroyer. It took the form of a destructive wave once it hit his foes. However, the wave followed up with countless shockwaves that knocked them all out.
"Heh, what? It's over already?!" Zeed X feigned disappointment.
As the smoke cleared, the group was gone. Zeed X turned to his far left and saw that the group was relocated due to Kaiser X's Instant Movement. Zeed X turned back to his normal humanoid form.
"Gotta love that Instantaneous Movement. Or, Instant Transmission. Ugh, whatever you call it? I think…" Zeed X tapped his head. "No, no, let me get it right."
Kaiser X phased out and reappeared next to Zeed X. The Fuseha warrior decked him with a right hand.
"Instant Movement, bitch," Kaiser X spat.
Zeed X kip-upped back to his feet. "That's the one!" He twisted his head around and adjusted it the way he wanted.
Powering up with a healthy blue glow, Kaiser X rocketed toward Zeed X. Kaiser X and Zeed X briefly exchanged blows, sending shockwaves through each other's punches. Zeed X extended his arms, grabbing Kaiser X's foot and tossing him away.
As he turned, Zeed X was met with an all-out attack from Tempus Pluto, Volodramon, Super Angemon X, Devil Homura, and Hit. He humored them by dodging and parrying their blows.
Witnessing her friends being taken down one by one, Sedna had enough. She prepared to take action. Then, Tempus Pluto was repelled away as she landed next to Sedna.
"Pluto!"
"Why aren't you fighting with us, Sedna?"
"I… well…"
Tempus Pluto nodded. "I see now, you and Kuipers lack Princess forms." She detached the Garnet Orb from her staff and transferred over its energy to Sedna. "With my help, I can at least invoke the Sailor Crystal inside you, which should allow you to transform into your princess form.:
"But, what about the other Kuipers? They're going to need princess forms like me, too."
"They'll be able to transform through you. Once you invoke your princess form, their Sailor Crystals should activate and they'll access their princess forms. Put your hand on the Garnet Orb," the time guardian instructed.
As she nodded, Sedna palmed the orb and felt the orb's mystical energies flow into her. Sedna let out a relaxed sigh as her Dai-Valkyrie armor vanished, replaced by her regular Sailor uniform. Then, the Sailor uniform transformed into a different kind of wardrobe. A dress akin to the Senshi's princess gowns materialized on her. Donning a metallic cerulean dress, Sailor Sedna ascended into Glacialis Sedna.
Glacialis Sedna looked in awe of her princess transformation. "Incredible! And I feel much stronger!" She closed her eyes and smiled. "And top of that, I feel like good as new."
"You should access your full power in this form, more so than any of your previous forms," Tempus Pluto informed her.
Recalling her Ice Trident, Glacialis Sedna prepared to reenter the fray.
Meanwhile, Zeed X repelled Super Angemon X with a shockwave. Volodramon attacked with Temporal Exaflare, but Zeed X neutralized his attacks.
"Oooh, nice try, Ancientmon's champion, but you're gonna have to up the ante a bit!" Zeed X taunted Volodramon.
As Volodramon went for a front attack, Zeed X phased behind him and kicked him far back.
When Devil Homura tried stopping time, she moved in to deal a blow into Zeed X. Hit also used Timeskip to move in for the kill. Much to the Devil and the assassin's horror, Zeed X moved freely despite time having been frozen. Zeed X defied the logic of time and blasted them back, restoring time to normal.
"Enough!" Kaiser X unleashed a full-powered Final Tsunami Wave.
Zeed X immediately took to the air. Kaiser X quickly teleported above Zeed X with Instant Movement. He pushed his hands forward and launched his Final Tsunami Wave right in Zeed X's face. If that wasn't enough, Kaiser X formed a Spirit Sword and slashed up Zeed X.
Boom!
Going all out, Kaiser X went for the decisive blow to take Zeed X down. He decked Zeed X's face and pushed him downward, slamming him hard into the ground. The Fuseha warrior's mighty fist drove Zeed X through the ground, creating a giant crater in the wake of the impact fall. Kaiser X picked up Zeed X. Kaiser X powered up his fist and prepared to punch Zeed X into oblivion… then, the Fuseha fusion wore off. The Fuseha warrior split back into Super Blue Omega X and Super Blue Metalla X.
"What?!" Omega X fell in shock. "These were supposed to be upgraded Fuseha earrings! We were supposed to last longer than that!"
"It hasn't even been past 30 minutes!" Metalla X snapped.
Zeed X explained. "Yeaaaah, about that. During our fight, I kinda tinkered with time. Also, you can blame Homura for using her time manipulation. Messing with the time stream kinda mucked up and hastened your fusion time limit."
Devil Homura humbly apologized. "I'm sorry, you two. I… I didn't mean to…"
Zeed X shrugged. "Oh well, what's done is done, right?"
Omega X and Metalla X dropped into fighting stances.
"Well, what now?" Metalla X growled.
"I'm kinda short on options, too," Omega X admitted.
"It's not over yet," Tempus Pluto declared, helping Volodramon up.
"She's right," Glacialis Sedna walked beside Super Angemon X. "So as long as we're still standing, we can fight."
Thanks to Sedna's optimistic words, Omega X gained a confidence boost. "You're right, Karin. We still have fight left in us. And we won't stop until you're dead, Zeed X."
"This same song and dance. Oh well, can't be helped, but we're making this the last dance," Zeed X got into a battle stance and beckoned his adversaries to attack him. "We can keep this going until you're all out of breath!"

Dimension: DF-616 Prime/Planet Plant
(Cue Gundam 00 – Decisive Battle)
Back on Planet Plant, the heroes are clearing out Zeed X's army. By this point, the appearance of Colony Chaos HM already altered to Colony Orcus HM.
Sam & DeathScytheGundamon, Kara & SandrockGundamon, David & HeavyArmsGundamon, Dai-Valkyrie Haumea, Dai-Valkyrie Makemake, CyberBeelzemon, Titaniamon, OmegaShoutmon, and Utopia faced off against the last remnants of Zeed X's army on the planet.
"We've diminished their numbers to the bare minimum!" Titaniamon, garbed in her Defense Armor, brandished a heavy broadsword after slaying a Cyberdemon.
"Great, now we can take the last of these freaks!" Dai-Valkyrie Haumea said.
"Then, let's crush them!" SandrockGundamon yelled out in Kara's angry tone.
SandrockGundamon rocketed toward another Cyberdemon. As SandrockGundamon countered the Cyberdemon's missiles, some Necromorphs sneaked on the Gundam and attached themselves. The creatures started to tear off parts of SandrockGundamon.
"GET OFF MY GUNDAM, YOU ASSHATS!" Kara screamed.
"Kara!" DeathScytheGundamon yelled.
"Hang on, Kara! I'll get them off!" HeavyArmsGundamon shouted as he shot up to SandrockGundamon and prepared to bombard the Necromorphs with beams.
"GET THEM OFF!"
Suddenly, a rain of beams fell from out of nowhere and vaporized the Necromorphs, permanently removing them off SandrockGundamon.
"Thanks, David! I love ya!"
"That wasn't me, Kara."
"Huh? Then, Sam?"
"Not me either! Guys, look who's here!"
The D3s inside their Gundam partners looked up and to their delight, they saw their beloved friend. It was Tike and AltronGundamon.
"Hey, guys! Miss me?!" AltronGundamon waved to them.
"Tike… TIKE!" Kara teared up as she and David flew their Gundams up to reunite with Tike.
"But, how did you get here?" Sam asked him.
"The Other World's going into disorder because Zeed X's powers are messing with the realities. You're not gonna believe it, but Earth in our dimension's being merged with the Digital World and Other World!" Tike explained. "Anubimon offered to send me and a few others to help restore balance. I asked him if I could be brought here to kick some ass with you guys."
"So, you haven't been really revived, because the Digicores are inactive now if Anubimon hadn't already told you," Sam said.
"Yeah, I know all about the Digicores not working. Technically, I'm still dead," Tike pointed to his halo. "So hopefully after we win, the Digicores can be restored and you can revive me."
David smiled. "Are we glad you suggested to be sent here!"
Tike continued. "I wasn't the only one brought here. There's another who came with. I think Karin and Dimitri will be happy to know…" Before he can finish, he and AltronGundamon saw a Cyberdemon missile heading for them. "Hey! I wasn't done talking to my friends, you big horned dickwad!" He blasted the missile and launched a beam that wiped out the Cyberdemon. "Anyway, we'll catch up later!"
"It's the four of us now! Let's do take out this trash, D3s!" Sam rallied his colleagues.
The D3s and their Gundam Digimon quickly bombarded the Zeed X remnants relentlessly.
"Welcome back, Tike!" OmegaShoutmon cheered.
"Ok, now we can finish these bastards off!" CyberBeelzemon fired multiple gunfire and energy beams to take out Black clones.
As another Cyberdemon launched two missiles, they headed for Titaniamon, whose heavy defense armor managed to absorb their impact. The double impact from the missiles was enough to blow apart her Defense Armor, but Titaniamon swiftly reemerged and donned her Speed Armor. She flew at the Cyberdemon and beheaded with successive sword slashes.
"Good to have you back, little Tike," Titaniamon waved to him.
"Yeah! Now we can clear this field! Ready, Makemake?"
"Yeah!"
Just then, Haumea and Makemake's armors started glowing. A maroon aura enveloped Haumea. A lavender aura covered Makemake.
"What's going on here? I'm suddenly feeling more power resonating within me," Haumea said, watching her armor replaced with her Sailor uniform.
The same thing happened with Makemake.
Then, they heard the voice of Sedna inside their minds.
"Kuiper Senshi, this is Sailor Sedna. I've been given some energy from Sailor Pluto enough to invoke a power inside our Sailor Crystals we've yet to tap into. The other Sailors have already gained their true princess forms, which they donned ages ago. Now, it's only right that we invoke our princess modes. I've already transformed myself. Now, my Kuipers, it's your turn. Become the princesses you were truly meant to be!"
Haumea and Makemake saw their Sailor uniforms being changed into princess gowns.
Garbed in a maroon dress, Sailor Haumea became Harena Haumea. Donning a lavender dress, Sailor Makemake turned into Illusio Makemake.
"My gosh! I'm really wearing a princess gown?!" Makemake blushed.
"Not just that, but I feel much stronger than I was wearing that armor a minute ago!" Haumea widened her grin. "I think I can get past the whole princess gown as long as I get to kick serious butt in it!" She saw Necromorphs charging toward her and Makemake.
"Incoming!"
"Let's show 'em how princesses handle things!"
Haumea ripped earth from the ground and converted it into a giant sand hand, which crushed numerous Necromorphs under. Makemake used her whip to skewer and dismember Necromorphs.

Dimension: DF-616 Prime/Inside Colony Orcus HM
The battle against Jishikidai X was almost over. By this point already, Future Charon was removed from the combined Time Death. The reason? Sailor Charon (YYGDM-01) beckoned every known Sailor Charon like her, including Jishikitori X/Future Charon, and absorbed them to become Omniversal Chaos. As a result of this, Future Charon ceased to exist. With Future Charon gone, only three remaining Time Deaths were left, which subtracted a bulk of Jishikidai X's power. It became weak enough for the Kuipers to take it apart.
Dai-Valkyrie Varuna battered Stormbreaker over Jishikidai X, sending it crashing into an interior wall. Berserker Eris tossed his lasso, ensnaring Jishikidai X and using his immense strength to swing it around. He slammed Jishikidai X into a wall and yanked it forward, landing a hard punch that cracked the Time Death's armor. Berserker Eris followed up by lassoing Jishikidai X again and slamming it on the ground. He didn't stop there. He let out a berserker-like roar and battered the Time Death with ferocious blows, which put nearly any damage the Valkyrie Kuipers did to it to shame. He grabbed Stormbreaker from Varuna and bashed it.
Dai-Valkyrie Varuna balked. "Holy crap, why don't we just let him wreck the shit out of it for us? I've never seen Eris like this!"
Dai-Valkyrie Quaoar nervously nodded. "Yeah, how about we let him handle this? I don't want to get in his way."
Dai-Valkyrie Ixion scanned Jishikidai X with her visor. "It's what I thought. Once that other Charon was removed from that thing's body, it got substantially weaker and slower than before. Future Charon was definitely the primary source that powered this monster."
Dai-Valkyrie Quaoar nodded and smiled enthusiastically. "That means we can defeat it now!"
As Berserker Eris slammed the Time Death down, Dramon X flew into Jishikidai X and violently pulverized it with a Ryuken Wave. He rose and glared scornfully at the Time Death. Berserker Eris tossed Stormbreaker to Varuna.
"Now, let's finish it off so we can advance!" Dai-Valkyrie Varuna readied her Stormbreaker and Mjolnir for an attack combo.
Just then, the remaining Kuipers' bodies and armors glowed their respective uniform colors just like Sedna, Makemake, and Haumea. There was one exception though: Berserker Eris.
"What is going on here?" Quaoar wondered, gazing over the brown and yellow aura shrouding her.
"You got me, Quaoar." Berserker Eris gazed at his Kuiper friends and noticed a lack of any aura over him. "Nothing's happening to me though."
Sedna's voice entered their minds. "Can you hear me, Kuipers? It's Sedna. You're probably wondering why you're glowing now."
Dramon X heard his sister's voice. "Karin? Care to tell us what this means?"
"Sailor Pluto has already bestowed me the power to invoke my princess form. Sailors Haumea and Makemake already have turned into their princess forms thanks to me. Now, it's your turn to accept your rightful princess titles and fight at your absolute strongest."
Varuna queried. "Our absolute strongest? You mean even stronger than our Golden forms?"
"Probably, but let's not debate that now. Are you ready, Kuipers?"
"We'll need all we can to save Orcus!" Ixion said.
"We're ready! Bring it on, girl!" Berserker Eris called out.
"Huh? Who's that voice belong to? Did you guys find some new ally to help you rescue Orcus?"
Berserker Eris interjected. "Would you believe me if I told you it's me, Taylor?"
"Taylor? Eris? You sound like…?! But, how…?!"
"It's really me, Sedna! I've become my guy self again! Somehow being inside this fortress had some reality-warping effect that turned me back into Tyler. Believe me, I don't fully understand it either."
"Well, that's… quite an experience. Can you change back?"
"Heh, that's just the thing… I can't for some reason right now," Berserker Eris chuckled modestly. "But, don't worry! Forget about me! Getting Orcus back is more important for now!"
The Kuipers, sans Berserker Eris, saw their Dai-Valkyrie armors turn back into their Sailor uniforms. The Sailor uniforms ultimately turned into shimmering princess gowns. Berserker Eris sighed sadly missing out on being bestowed a princess gown.
Wearing a golden white dress, Sailor Varuna turned into Aduro Varuna. Garbed in a brown and yellow dress, Sailor Quaoar turned into Rosa Quaoar. Wearing a black and yellow dress, Sailor Ixion transformed into Potio Ixion.
"These dresses I have to admit are gorgeous," Potio Ixion commented.
"They are, aren't they?" Rose Quaoar spun around.
Dramon X marveled at the Kuiper Senshi's princess transformations.
"Man, it sucks I can't fight and kick ass in a princess gown!" Berserker Eris groaned.
"No offense, but picturing you in your princess gown the way you are… eh, who knows? You might make it work." Aduro Varuna remarked, trying to lighten up the crestfallen Berserker Eris.
"Or, maybe not. It's ok. I'm not even fussed about the way I am now. I think I'm much stronger as a Berserker than I ever was as a Valkyrie Senshi. That alone makes up for not being my girl self."
Dramon X patted Berserker Eris's shoulder. "Hey, don't sweat it. That new strength you got turned that thing into damaged goods."
"I suppose if I'm not able to change back, you can give me pointers on how to live life as a guy, Ken?" Berserker Eris half-joked, but his tone seemed to indicate otherwise. He seemingly accepted his fate.
"Don't be silly, Eris. We're getting you back to normal," Dramon X replied.
Aduro Varuna initially wasn't keen on her dress based on her annoyed expression. She shrugged and accepted. "Oh well, if it's supposed to make me stronger than before?" She brandished her Stormbreaker and Mjolnir together. "I don't care either way anymore!"
"Now, fight on, Kuipers! Help brother save our Orcus! Right now, I'm already caught up in a hard battle, so let's see each other again."
The Kuipers nodded to each other and turned as Jishikidai X slowly recovered. The Kuipers quickly flew faster than before and attacked the Time Death. Jishikidai X failed to keep up with the much faster and stronger Kuipers. At one point, Aduro Varuna crossed both her Stormbreaker and Mjolnir, charging up and sending a massive thunderball. Aduro Varuna's Berserker Ball collided and dealt a heavy blow to Jishikidai X, breaking off more of its armor and neutralizing it.
Aduro Varuna and Berserker Eris hastily dashed at Jishikidai X. The Kuiper powerhouses then clenched their fists and landed a double punch that cracked open its central core. Potio Ixion then unleashed a barrage of poisonous arrows that pinned Jishikidai X against the wall. Rosa Quaoar made the decisive blow and drove a sharp vine blade through the Time Death's core, delivering the killing blow.
"And that'll do," Rosa Quaoar muttered as Jishikidai X exploded and died.
"Alright!" Berserker Eris high-fived his fellow Kuipers.
"Ok, guys. We're running out of time! Let's go and get Orcus!" Dramon X commanded.
(End theme)
Suddenly, Jikishidai X's body began to move and reconstruct itself much to the heroes' dismay. Of course, it turned out Colony Orcus HM is responsible for this.
"Aww man, you gotta be kidding me! That thing's still kicking?!" Berserker Eris whined.
"More like this place revived it!" Potio Ixion said as her scanner picked up a new life signature from Jishikidai X. "We destroyed the three souls that gave it life, but it's now being controlled by the source controlling this fortress!"
Aduro Varuna readied her dual weapons. "Then, all we gotta do is take it down again! Ken, we'll hold this thing off! We'll leave it to you to get Christina!"
"Right," Dramon X nodded.
"Why don't I come with you? Y'know for back-up?" Berserker Eris offered.
"I appreciate it, Taylor…"
"Tyler now."
"I need to go alone. Stay with the girls and help them. Hopefully, they can help you out and change you back."
"Right, guess that's that. Be careful, man," Berserker Eris then headed off to help the Kuipers battle Jishikidai X.
Without delay, Dramon X advanced deep inside the Colony Orcus.

Dimension: DF-616 Prime/Inside Colony Orcus HM/Core
(Cue Berserk Golden Age III: Descent OST 15 - 'Sonate pour piano nº 23') (0:00 - 0:31)
Once Dramon X made it to the Core Room, he viciously looked around the surroundings. The atmosphere felt like something out of Hell itself. No, almost literally like the Devil's house.
In the ceilings, something startled Dramon X. What he saw was illusionary hanged bodies of Tike, Tagiru & Gumdramon, Kensuke's parents, Deckerdramon, and ZekeGreymon. Stepping on the floor, he blanched at the horrifying sight of illusionary faces of two thousand people. These thousands of people were the casualties accidentally killed by Kensuke back when GranDracmon's curse first activated.
Finally, the Accel Ascendant gaped in aghast at a large sac that served as the core of Colony Chaos HM. It held an unconscious figure: Sailor Orcus.
"CHRISTINA!" Dramon X shouted as he's about to reach her.
(0:32 - 5:39)
"Hehehehe, getting scared, Kenny?! I've been waiting for you!"
Suddenly, the core violently formed into the body of an arch-nemesis that Dramon X was beyond furious to see again: GranDracmon. He was revived once more by Zeed X, and his body had elements of the Devil Gundam's final form. Orcus was placed between GranDracmon's upper and lower bodies.
Dramon X gasped. "No way, GranDracmon?!" His shocked look changed into a hateful glare.
"Welcome… TO HELL, KENNY!" GranDracmon openly taunted as his voice boomed throughout the Core Room.
Dramon X growled, biting his bottom lip hard. "That bastard revived you?!"
"Hehehe, yes, and I've been given the responsibility of holding your sweet idol girlfriend in me! Sadly, I can't kill her, because she's essential in keeping this place running."
"LET HER GO NOW!"
GranDracmon deeply sighed. "And what did I just go and say? I can't because her life is giving this Colony life. And you remove her from me, well, I die."
"Like I give a fuck! I'm killing your ass and taking Orcus back!"
"If you want her that bad and don't care about my life, then come and take her!" GranDracmon invited him to take Orcus.
Dramon X flew at GranDracmon and prepared to hit him with a Ryuken Wave, but GranDracmon put Orcus right in front of him. This caused Dramon X to halt. GranDracmon spewed a black mist, which covered the Core Room.
"Hehehe, did you think rescuing her would be that simple?!"
"Should've known you'd pull a stunt like this!"
"And you're still a gullible fool! This girl has made you soft…!"
"Then, you've been way out of the loop!" Dramon X quickly cut him off and flew passed the mist. He unleashed a white aura, which cleared out the black mist shrouding the Core Room. After clearing the mist, he saw the illusionary hanged corpses morph into demonic undead versions of GranDracmon's minions.
ZekeGreymon turned into Belialmon. Tike morphed into Dagomon. Ken's parents merged and became Echidnamon. Tagiru and Gumdramon merged into Arkadimon. Deckerdramon shapeshifted into Analogmon. The hanged corpses meshed with the demonic background.
Dramon X was speechless by the reappearance of GranDracmon's undead minions. The apostle-like monsters quickly dogpiled onto him as they restrained him. As they held him, GranDracmon's helmet mask shattered on its own, revealing his demonic dragon face. His face then morphed into something resembling a demonic horse. To make matters worse for Dramon X, GranDracmon pulled Orcus out of him and added personal insult to injury by licking the girl's salty tears. Orcus awoke with her eyes still closed and screamed. A demonic mark of the Synister glowed red on her forehead.
Piano music continued to be heard in the background with sounds and a touch of a horror-themed orchestra. The apostle monsters, alongside the illusionary faces of Kensuke's victims, let out demonic laughter at the Accel Ascendant's misery.
"CHRISTINA!" Dramon X roared as his rage reached new levels. "LET HER GO NOW!"
"You know what else I'm going to do?! I'm going to dig up your parents' bodies from their graves, grind them up until they're like chili, and eat them up!" The villain taunted his long-time nemesis. "How would you like th…?!"
(Cue Gundam 00 OST 04 – Memento Mori)
Whoosh!
Dramon X immediately went Ascendant God as his white aura wiped out GranDracmon's minions. He instinctively flew toward GranDracmon so fast he punched the beast's face.
"Hehehe," GranDracmon cackled despite having his face smashed in by Dramon X's punch. "You hit like a little bitch!"
Suddenly, GranDracmon's minions returned and surrounded Dramon X. Dramon X glared at each of them not even batting an eye. Belialmon flew right at Dramon X and swiped at him. Dramon X effortlessly dodged and formed buzzsaws in his hands. The Accel Ascendant summoned a clone of himself as the two sliced Belialmon's limbs off, then proceed to slice through his body. The clone quickly dispersed into dust.
Analogmon tried to sneak up on Dramon X. Dramon X teleported behind him with Instant Movement. He waited as Analogmon turned and punched a hole through his chest. After ripping his hand from the monster's chest, Echidnamon and Dagomon jumped him. Dramon X landed a Meteor Kick, sending energies into his right leg with enough force to break Dagomon's body in two. When Echinamon went to grab him, Dramon X sliced her in two.
As he came fast, Arkadimon grabbed Dramon X and prepared to crush him. Dramon X unleashed his white god aura, which knocked away Arkadimon. He then blasted each and every one of GranDracmon's minions, wiping them out fast before they can even regenerate themselves.
Seizing this opportunity, GranDracmon flew at Dramon X and fired a mouth blast his way. Dramon X dodged GranDracmon's beams and flew up catching up with a closed fist to his face. The two exchanged a flurry of attacks. He unleashed a Death Scream to immobilize Dramon X, but the Accel Ascendant's white aura protected him from the monster's soul-crushing attack.
Dramon X grabbed GranDracmon's face and crushed it with his hand. He sent divine energies that burned the villain's face until most of his skin melted off. GranDracmon let out a ghastly screech as most of his melting face became skeletal. Dramon X produced his Ryuken Star, which he used to slash GranDracmon's face. He then tossed it to cut the bondage holding Orcus. He dove to catch her, but GranDracmon intercepted and blasted him back. Dramon X reformed his Ascendant God aura, which easily dissipated the villain's beam. GranDracmon attempted to use his Gorgon's Eye to manipulate the darkness in Dramon X's heart, but what he got was the Accel Ascendant absorbing his attack.
"CURSE YOU, KENSUKE!" GranDracmon bellowed.
"YOU HAVEN'T LEARNED A DAMN THING TO KILL ME!" Dramon X then used Instant Movement first to catch Orcus and place her somewhere safe. Then, he teleported again right in front of GranDracmon. He put his palm to GranDracmon's chest and returned the villain's power into him. Dramon X unleashed his Ryuken Repulsor Wave.
GranDracmon felt his body racked with his own power damaging his body. He doubled over and spewed dark red blood from his mouth.
Dramon X quickly charged energy through his body with a force of a dragon. Then, he unleashed a giant burst of energy and blasted GranDracmon with his Ryuken Zero. He made it worse by adding his Zero Factor's power to make it more gruesome for the villain.
"GranDracmon, you… YOU PIECE OF SHIT, NOW YOU'RE GONNA GET IT!" Dramon X opened up his shoulder shield and took out a cannon. He grabbed his Draco Cannon. He also took out a sword and combined it with his Draco Cannon. "HEY, ASSHOLE! UP HERE!"
As he stumbled around, GranDracmon looked up and saw his nemesis holding a glowing white sword.
"I WON'T LET YOU DESTROY ME, KENSUKE! YOU DIE BY MY HANDS!"
"LET THIS ETCH INTO YOUR MEMORIES FOREVER!" Dramon X, now powered by pure raw anger instead of love and sorrow, quickly descended on GranDracmon and used his S.O.L. Jihad Blade to slice through GranDracmon's whole body with ease.
Witnessing his vision being split in two, GranDracmon's body quivered a bit as a vertical line formed and split him in two. His body got split thanks to Dramon X's sword.
GranDracmon sputtered. "...curse you… for all… of time… Kensuke Rainer… but your curse will continue on… beyond my cessation of existence…!" He let out a monstrous bellow as he dissolved into red mist. His soul had now ceased for good.
(End theme)
Letting out a deep breath, Dramon X's descended near Orcus, who was starting to stir.
"It's over," Dramon X withdrew from where GranDracmon used to be. His eyes lay on Orcus. "C'mon, let's get out of here, Christina."
However, Colony Orcus HM began to blow up without the core stabilizing it.
"Ugh, we gotta go now!" Dramon X reached for Sailor Orcus.
(Cue Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V OST - Zarc)
Then, a volatile power surge began to pull Dramon X and the unconscious Orcus together. The two were suddenly being forced to merge. As both slowly merged, Dramon X's mind saw flashing images of a 3D-styled Zeed X head laughing and opening his mouth, seemingly engulfing the Accel Ascendant's mind. That same creepy face laughed before it exploded into digital sand.
Then, Zeed X appeared inside his head with Christina's father and Kensuke's faces floating on opposite ends. All three gave Orcus a goodnight kiss before she was forced and placed inside Colony Chaos HM. She was then converted into its core. These horrid images immensely burned into the Accel Ascendant's mind and enraged him.
"CHRISTINA?!" Dramon X roared in pain. "ZEED X! YOU BASTARD!" He cursed the anomalous being while grabbing his head.
"KENSUKE!" Orcus mentally screamed as her mind and body became merged with Dramon X.

Dimension: DF-616 Prime/Planet Plant
As the body fortress of Colony Orcus HM started collapsing, the Kuiper Senshi and Berserker Eris were finishing up their battle with Jishikidai X.
"What the hell is going?!" Aduro Varuna exclaimed.
"It's probably because Ken saved Orcus! He likely defeated whatever was powering this place's core!" Potio Ixion deduced.
"Yes, and without its core, this place is collapsing!" Rosa Quaoar said. "We have to get out of here!"
Berserker Eris wrecked the Jishikidai X's body beyond repair. Jishikidai X crashed hard. Aduro Varuna prepared to finish it with her Stormbreaker axe.
"Varuna, we have to go! That thing will go down with this place anyway!" Berserker Eris called to his friend.
Sighing, Aduro Varuna turned away. "Let's move!"
Suddenly, the group watched as a black sphere emerged and floated above the now collapsing Colony Chaos HM. They saw both Dramon X and Orcus were trapped inside this black planetoid-sized sphere.
"It's Ken and Christina!" Rosa Quaoar cried out.
"But, why are trapped in that ball?!" Potio Ixion became fearful.
"I don't like this," gritted Berserker Eris.
"Something's happening!" Aduro Varuna pointed them to the black sphere starting to take shape into something else entirely horrifying.
The anger of both Dramon X and Orcus fused them to become a colossal dragon that looked like the Supreme Dragon King Zarc (Yu-Gi-Oh! Arc-V). It gained four pairs of wings. With an endless supply of darkness stirring within the Kuiper, Orcus gained a black and silver dress, transforming her into Platinum Orcus. Orcus's upper body and free arms are attached to the dragon's chest and her dress meshed to connect with his heart. The heart's pulse beat loudly. The head design has traits of Dramon X's Gundam helmet. It also has a centaur-like body below with four legs akin to GranDracmon's. This rage-fueled being became known as ZarcDramon X.
The Kuipers and Berserker Eris watched in utter horror at their friends becoming this draconic abomination. Rosa Quaoar looked away as Aduro Varuna held her.
"My god…" Potio Ixion muttered in disbelief.
"But, Ken won and saved Christina! Why is this happening?! This isn't fair!" Rosa Quaoar ranted.
"This is probably Zeed X's doing!" Aduro Varuna conveyed with anger.
"Yeah, this was probably a trap he sprung on Ken once he saved Christina!" Berserker Eris said.
"There's no use of us crying over this! They're counting on us! C'mon!" Aduro Varuna rallied the Kuipers and Berserker Eris to follow ZarcDramon X.
Just then, the group saw Jishikidai X floating up and glowing with dark light.
"Ugh, why won't it just drop dead already?!" Berserker Eris snapped as he prepared to unleash a wind attack.
"Don't, Eris!" Potio Ixion intercepted him. "That thing's going into self-detonation mode! Oh god… according to my sensors, that thing's self-detonation will have enough power to destroy this planet!"
(Theme fades)
(Cue Sailor Moon Crystal OST - Determination)
"Then, you go, girls!" Berserker Eris yelled out as he jumped onto Jishikidai X.
"ERIS!" The Kuipers called out to their colleague.
"Wait, Eris!" Aduro Varuna called out. "I know you turned into a dude, but c'mon don't think like one! Get off that thing!"
"She's right! We're in this together!" Potio Ixion pleaded to him. "Look, we can figure out how to fix and change you back to normal!"
"I've accepted what I've become now… besides, that's not important. Someone has to stay and move this thing off world! If I don't make it, I need you all to go to Sedna! Tell her…" Berserker Eris chuckled as he held a firm hold on Jishikidai X. "...tell her I said to save Ken and Christina for me."
"But, Taylor…!" Rosa Quaoar called out as Aduro Varuna grabbed her.
"We trust in you, Taylor, but please don't you die on us!" Aduro Varuna ordered Berserker Eris, who nodded. Aduro Varuna pulled Rosa Quaoar away. "We have to go!"
Rosa Quaoar teared up as she and Berserker Eris exchanged looks. Berserker Eris smiled and waved to his friends.
Closing his eyes, Berserker Eris flew up carrying Jishikidai X with him as they rocketed past Planet Plant's atmosphere. "I'm going out with a bang… just for you!"
Boom!
Then, an explosion occurred in space while the Kuipers watched with saddened expressions. They sensed Berserker Eris was no more.
Rosa Quaoar grasped her chest and teared up. "Taylor… no..."
Aduro Varuna patted Quaoar's shoulder. "Eris gave her life for us to continue the fight. She saved us and this planet from getting blown up. That's a hell of a selfless sacrifice if I ever saw one. And we'll continue to fight for her sake. She'd want that!"
Potio Ixion concurred. "And for that short time, her male self made a great asset and would've made a valuable friend. Now they're both gone."
Rosa Quaoar wiped her tears. "Eris."
"Hey, guys. Why the long faces? Sounds like y'all are giving a eulogy to someone?" A familiar country girl's tone chimed in, naturally causing the three Kuipers to flip out and turn around.
To their utter shock, they saw Sailor Eris, who was now donning her green princess dress. She had become Ventus Eris without them seeing it happen.
"ERIS?!" The Kuiper cried out in unison as they crowded around her.
"Um, hi? I'm still alive?" Eris blinked and waved.
"But, wait… you…!" Potio Ixion flipped out and pointed to the sky. "We saw you… and that thing go boom! We saw you die!"
Rosa Quaoar ran up and hugged Ventus Eris. "Oh, thank goodness you're still alive!"
Aduro Varuna frowned. "Ok, you scared us to death and we seriously thought we lost you. What the hell happened? How did you change back?!"
After hugging Quaoar, Ventus Eris explained. "Well, I never said I'd sacrifice myself. That was all my brother's idea."
"Brother? You mean Tyler?" Potio Ixion queried.
"Uh-huh. As he and that thing went flying, the Sailor Crystal inside him came to life and brought me back. Besides, the side effects of that reality warp that turned me into Tyler must've worn off." Eris delved. "Once we separated, brother figured he'd sacrifice himself for us."
The Kuiper nodded dumbfoundedly.
Ventus Eris chuckled. "Oh, fine. I'll tell how I came here."

Flashback/A few moments ago
Berserker Eris took Jishikidai X further into the atmosphere. Both enveloped themselves in a fiery aura as Berserker Eris looked to detonate himself with the entity. Suddenly, a green glow erupted from his chest at the same time the Eris planetary mark appeared on his forehead. Eris's Sailor Crystal emerged, glowing in front of him.
"Can it be?" Berserker Eris blinked in confusion as the Sailor Crystal's green light materialized into Sailor Eris's familiar form. From the light, Ventus Eris materialized and realized she was floating next to Berserker Eris.
"Taylor… sis! I know you can hear me! I know you've been desperate to break loose! We're out of that thing that caused you to turn into me! I'm going to sacrifice myself so you can get free and avoid the explosion, but we have to make it quick!"
"Tyler?!" Ventus Eris called out.
"You look great in that dress, sis."
Ventus Eris smiled with a blush. "Thanks, brother, and it was kinda fun playing and being He-Man for half an hour. God, how am I going to describe that in my next diary ent…?" Once realizing what she said, she shook her head. "Anyway! What do you think you're doing?! Don't you realize you're going to die?!"
"Yes, and you still have a bigger role to play in this final battle than I."
"But…!"
"Listen, there was no telling if I would've changed back to you… my normal self if I simply left with the others off this planet, I'd probably have been stuck in this form. And I think Larry would prefer you return home instead of me."
Ventus Eris giggled. "I don't know… the thought of dude me and Larry getting together sounds kinda hot."
"Oh c'mon, sis!"
"I'm only kidding!"
"That's beside the point, Taylor. I figured by sacrificing myself, you'd have a chance to leave and tell Karin about me!"
"But, I'd rather bring you back with me so I'd have another brother to call my own!"
Berserker Eris felt genuinely touched by Ventus Eris' words. "You're so kind, Taylor West."
"Brother!" Ventus Eris cried out. "No! You don't have to do this! Let's get off this place together!"
Berserker Eris chuckled, folding his massive arms around Jishikidai X. "I wasn't going to last beyond this point, Taylor. It was good to be your brother for this moment."
"Tyler, please…!"
"Go now!"
Ventus Eris teared up as she and Berserker Eris exchanged looks. Berserker Eris smiled and put his hand out.
"Take this as something to remember me, sis," Berserker Eris sent green energy toward Ventus Eris, who absorbed her male counterpart's power. "I know you're kinda lacking in physical strength compared to me, so this should give ya a boost! Now you have a Berserker's strength flowing within you!"
Before they can say anything else, Jishikidai X recovered and tried to attack the siblings. However, Ventus Eris and Berserker Eris landed a double punch that completely shattered the entity's body.
"See? That's the kind of power you're fighting with. Our power, sis."
Ventus Eris replied. "Thank you, brother." She turned away her eyes full of tears.
No, thank you, Taylor. After all, I am you. Berserker Eris thought as he and Jishikidai X shot up far past Planet Plant's atmosphere. "I'm going out with a bang, Taylor, just for you!"
Then, an explosion occurred in space while Ventus Eris hastily flew away.

Planet Plant
"And that's how it happened. Tyler gave his life to save me and he lent me some of his power to fight on," Ventus Eris said, feeling Berserker Eris' energy coursing with her. Her eyes became more resolute than before.
Aduro Varuna patted Eris's shoulder. "It's like I told Quaoar, don't mourn too badly for the guy. He not only saved our asses, but he saved this planet from getting blown up. The guy's a hell of a hero. He died to make sure you came back to us. I'd be proud to call him a brother of mine. Rather, us."
Potio Ixion concurred. "Yes, and had he stayed with us, he'd make a great Kuiper teammate."
Rosa Quaoar added. "We'll never forget him."
Smiling, Ventus Eris stared at the sky as the explosion's light dissipated. "If I ever have a son, I'll name him Tyler in honor of him." Goodbye, Tyler, and thank you.
"Hey, what was that explosion just now?!" Titaniamon called out to the Kuipers.
"Whoa! So, you just became princesses like us," Harena Haumea noticed the other Kuipers' princess gowns.
"You all look wonderful!" Illusio Makemake said.
"Anyway, we've all cleared the planet of the monsters," Sam stated.
"And guess who's back?! Tike!" Kara embraced her brother.
"Dead or alive, it's good to have you back, kid," Aduro Varuna noted Tike's halo.
"That big dragon we saw was Ken, wasn't it?" CyberBeelzemon asked.
"Yeah, I felt Ken and Christina in that thing!" OmegaShoutmon said.
"That's where we're going next," Aduro Varuna clarified. She then turned to Ventus Eris. "Hey, one more thing." She tossed Stormbreaker to her, who caught it surprisingly with one hand. "Wow, nice catch."
Ventus Eris shut her eyes and smiled as she casually swung Stormbreaker around. She chuckled and reopened her resolute eyes. "Piece of cake. Now that I have my brother's power coursing with me, our combined strength has made me stronger than I've ever been before. And wielding Stormbreaker is proof of that. I accept it with honor, dance partner."
Rose Quaoar interjected. "Dance partner? Hey, no offense, but Varuna is with me."
Ventus Eris smirked. "I'm speaking on behalf of Tyler if he were still here. Besides, you're all my dance partners."
Aduro Varuna nodded. "Then, let's bring a world of hurt to the ones responsible for this nightmare!"
With no time to grieve, the Kuipers, D3s, and Ken's Digimon head back to Earth to pursue ZarcDramon X.

Dimension: DF-616 Prime/Tokyo, Japan (東京都, 日本)
(Cue Starset - CARNIVORE)
As the fight against Zeed X continued, they and everyone else heard a raging, draconic roar that shook the dimension. Zeed X turned to see the large figure in the sky with a smile. Omega X, Angemon X, Sedna, and those close to Dramon X and Sailor Orcus are beyond overwhelmed by what they saw.
As ZarcDramon X descended over Tokyo, let out more roars that punched holes through the dimensional fabrics. The rage of the carnivorous beast started to seep into the dimensional tears and spread its destruction to random other dimensions.
Zeed X sniggered at ZarcDramon X's rampage, "At last, the draconic anathema is here."
"That's Ken and Christina!" Glacialis Sedna cried out, feeling their presence inside ZarcDramon X.
"No, it can't be!" Angemon X exclaimed.
Omega X angrily snapped at Zeed X. "You did this to them!"
Then, Zeed X created hallucinations above the dimensional fabrics that are shaped like Zeed X's Sphere Mode (even creating the face of Christina's father for Orcus). They repeatedly chanted in Orson Welles's voice, "Let go, kill them all, they will all fear you."
ZarcDramon X's roars continued pouring into and polluting large sections of the Nexus. The beast's attacks started blowing up random unnamed dimensions and left untold damage to the Nexus. Sailor Cosmos and the Ora Guardians tried their hardest to stop the dimensional nuking attacks, but many dimensions were lost despite their great efforts. Coupled with utilizing Dramon X's destructive power, ZarcDramon X used Platinum Orcus's black holes to easily wipe out numerous dimensions. The casualties started with a few hundred and eventually hit over billions.
Shaking hard, Glacialis Sedna dropped to her knees and cried. "Stop… please stop…!" As a dimension crosser and protector, this greatly affected and crushed her spirit.
ZarcDramon X quickly veered and set its predatory sights on Zeed X. The mercurial behemoth dove toward Zeed X and unleashed a devastating beam at Zeed X. In response to this, Zeed X used Yami Zeed X Reflector and redirected the blast to...

Dimension: XLR-8/S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters
...S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters of XLR-8, destroying it and killing its people, including Nick Fury.
The S.H.I.E.L.D. director cursed under his breath. "Motherf-!" And with that, he and the rest of S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters were wiped out by ZarcDramon X's blast.

Dimension: DF-616 Prime
ZarcDramon X dove and slammed into Zeed X, who grabbed hold of the beast's face. Zeed X landed a barrage of punches that dazed ZarcDramon X. Zeed X followed up with a kick and sent ZarcDramon X flying back.
"Heheh, it's too late to save your reputation now, Kensuke!" Zeed X yelled out.
"We have to go and subdue that beast so we can save Kensuke and Christina!" Tempus Pluto declared.
"Let's hurry, my friends!" Volodramon rallied the heroes.
(End theme)
Omega X, Metalla X, Angemon X, Glacialis Sedna, Tempus Pluto, Volodramon, Devil Homura, and Hit headed over to ZarcDramon X's location. However, Zeed X intercepted them.
"Heh, sorry but y'all gotta pay a toll to get to him," Zeed X taunted them in a Scottish accent.
"Fuck your tolls!" Metalla X fired a Big Bang Attack at Zeed X, who conjured a big baseball glove and tossed a curveball at Metalla X.
Metalla X dodged and kicked the beam into the sky.
"Nice try, Yamakins. That was a foul ball," Zeed X teased.
"Let us by now!" Angemon X demanded.
"You've tortured my brother and now my friend enough!" Glacialis Sedna shouted in anger.
"You don't have to worry about them, because their reputations will become so infamous that the entire omniverse will hate them both," Zeed X chortled as he teleported over where ZarcDramon X was recovering.
ZarcDramon X looked up and growled as it saw Zeed X above.
(Cue Johnny Cash - Hurt)
"Congratulations. You both just became the Bonnie & Clyde of the author's omniverse," Zeed X gave a trollish expression as his face changed into Kenta Kitagawa in front of ZarcDramon X and the other heroes. "Vagabonds. Hated outcasts that everyone throughout the Nexus will remember you both of this calamitous act. Nothing can permanently erase it from history. Can't you see this face I'm showing you? This nerd would have been Christina's love interest, but she rather prefers a bigger man's dick from you, Kenny, and not that nerd's small Asian penis that now desires for (M)otherfucker(I)mmoral(S)hi(T)." As his face turned back to normal, Zeed X conjured a dick and testicles (off-screen), and then made his scrotum briefly bigger, "Still, Christina enjoyed a bigger horse dick from the hellspawn created by me based on her father's darkness. She was 'liking it'..."
Boom!
ZarcDramon X fired a blast that sent Zeed X flying back. However, Zeed X started walking through ZarcDramon X's beam.
"C'mon! Why don't ya kick me in the balls like you always do to the bad guys?! KICK ME IN MY ROYAL JEWELS!" He goaded ZarcDramon X.
ZarcDramon X shot up and chomped down on him. Zeed X rapidly punched ZarcDramon X a hundred times and knocked him down.
Zeed X briefly turned to the readers and changed his face to Negan (The Walking Dead), "And did you all see that? He takes it like a champ!"
The anomalous being returned back to focus as his face turned back to normal.
ZarcDramon X rose again and shot up blasting Zeed X. Zeed X phased out and reappeared above the beast. He clubbed ZarcDramon X and smashed him face first to the ground.
(End theme)
Omega X and company arrived where they saw Zeed X smash ZarcDramon X's face through the ground.
"KEN! CHRISTINA!" Glacialis Sedna screamed in horror.
"You bastard…!" Angemon X growled at Zeed X.
"You've proved your point, Zeed X! Let them go now!" Omega X demanded, preparing to blast the anomalous being with a Tsunami Wave.
Devil Homura conjured a dark aura that shaped itself into a demon's visage. "You've caused enough grief to good people. Don't think I forgot what you've done to the other Homura!"
Tempus Pluto raised her Garnet Staff. "We'll fight you to the bitter end for those two!"
"Fight to the bitter end, you say? I can accommodate that for you," Zeed X smirked. Then, he snapped his fingers and a portal opened up behind him.
"What now?!" Metalla X snarled. "Fight us alone, coward!"
"Oh, I intend to, if you can get by my latest recruit," the anomalous being said. "Allow me to introduce…"
(Cue Dragon Ball Super OST - Jiren Theme Song)
Stepping out of the portal was a tall humanoid with an extremely muscular and well-defined build. He had a large, sleek head similar to the folkloric aliens known as the Greys. He has gray skin, big round black eyes with enlarged pupils, flat rounded ears, and a barely visible flat nose. He wore a uniform consisting of a red, spandex-like suit with black sections around the collar and legs, white gloves, and white boots.
"Welcome, Jirenmon the Grey," Zeed X turned to him with a conniving toothy grin.
Omega X gaped. He sensed a dangerously high Ki emanating from this newcomer. "Jirenmon?!"
Volodramon added. "I don't know who he is, but his power is beyond imagination."
Angemon X stepped into a fighting stance. "This power is beyond anything we've faced before."
Metalla X scoffed. "Why am I not even surprised anymore? It's power escalation bullshit."
Devil Homura muttered to Tempus Pluto. "Zeed X just keeps stacking the odds. If he wasn't here, I'd be a difference maker."
Tempus Pluto nodded. "Yes, but since Zeed X is here we must rely on each other."
"Oh, and to quote an author's words in response to some anonymous guest that loves to say 'Later days!', I have more personality than the Grey," Zeed X contrasted himself with Jirenmon.
Omega X blinked. "Anonymous guest?"
Zeed X chuckled. "Never mind that. Let's see how you last with the mortal whose power is greater than a God of Destruction. Should be fun!" He noticed ZarcDramon getting up again.
Jirenmon stepped forward to face the group. A second large figure emerged behind Jirenmon. This second individual is a tan-skinned burly alien humanoid. He has yellow eyes with black thin lines and has a large white mustache covering most of his lower part of the face. The alien's hands and legs are bigger and smaller than the other parts of his body. His uniform is the exact one worn by Jirenmon.
"And I can't forget you either, Toppomon, leader of the Digital Pride Troopers," the anomalous being invited him into the fray.
Hit muttered with intrigue. "Digital Pride Troopers?"
Glacialis Sedna gasped. "Just when it couldn't get worse than what we've been fighting up to now." She brandished her Ice Trident. "But nothing's going to keep me from reaching brother!"
Jirenmon set his sights first on Omega X. ZarcDramon X immediately sensed Jiremon's immense power. Becoming drawn to Jirenmon, ZarcDramon X raised his whole body up raring not just to tear Zeed X apart, but to fight this new challenge.
"A power greater than a God of Destruction? Oh man…" Omega X fell in distress.
"You'll be interested to know how I recruited this stoic mountain of a beast? Allow me to explain… in the next chapter!" Zeed X snapped his finger.

Zeed X's A/N: This is where it all changes everything.
It starts off with (M)otherfucker(I)mmoral(S)hi(T) wanting to destroy the whole omniverse and make a new immoral omniverse in planning to breed her four hateful enemies of YYGDM-01 to make her own conceptual race. She thinks she can do the impossible, huh? Guess the Mad Immoral isn't damn clever, doesn't she? XP Brunhilde (YYGDM-01) calls forth maidens from other dimensions to help the united forces against Neo Grimhilde. It is an absolute war against immorality itself.
(Using Nolanverse!Joker's voice) And here we...go! (Returns to his normal voice) The moment you all been waiting for, Kenny becoming the prophesied dimensional nuke. Yes, that 'old friend' of his is GranDracmon, how much I once made him join my forces to get his first revenge in the Accel Stream movie. Now I revived him once more in demonic force. In truth, GranDracmon (XDYC-666) was created by me from the twisted darkness inside the heart of Christina (YYGDM-01)'s father, a good reason why he created Sailor Andes in the first place and which may then lead to the Bizarro Senshi's birth. I bet Christina's father is a groomer in liking teenage girls. So, I have planned Kenny's downfall from the very start by GranDracmon (XDYC-666)'s curse.
This is what the author said to support my argument: That's a big downturn for Accel Stream's hero. Zeed X will have accomplished what he set out to do: breaking Kensuke down and destroying his reputation. He's learning from the mistakes of all the enemies who've tried fighting Kensuke with sheer force. He also sets Kensuke up to become that 'dimensional nuke' that's been alluded to in Accel Stream. Even worse, his girlfriend, Christina, will be broken down and becoming a raving lunatic just like Kensuke (to make her go through what Ken has suffered) and becoming a Neo Paradais warrior.

And now this chapter ends when I summoned my most powerful servant I've controlled. The parody expy of Jiren named Jirenmon.
Neo Grimhilde's A/N: YES, I'VE REACHED MY NEW PINNACLE! AND ALL THESE PESTS ARE ABOUT TO GET SWATTED LIKE BUGS! VALKYRIES, I SEE YOU'VE ACCEPTED MY CHALLENGE! BRUNHILDE AND VALKYRIES, THIS WILL BE OUR LAST STAND! AND AFTER I'VE BEATEN YOU, MY IMMORAL ESSENCE WILL CONSUME AND TURN EVERYTHING INTO MY OWN IMMORAL IMAGE! AHAHAHA!
Kanius's A/N: ...ignoring these two, I'll get right into my author's notes.
First, the Cornerverse stuff and I'll make it brief. Neo Grimhilde has ascended into Ultimate Grimhilde (wow who knew she had yet another form? /sarcasm)) She begins to spread her Immorapocalypse to convert the Cornerverse into her own image.
When Ultimate Brunhilde called forth all the Valkyries, she got them. How about that? The Spiderverse variation of the Valkyrie Maidens. You had Power Ranger Valkyries, Lesbian Valkyries, Lantern Valkyries, Genderbent Valkyries, Sailor Valkyries (with the Beast Tamers; three of which genderbent), the Zodiac Valkyries, Chosen Child Kotori w/MetalSeadramon, and countless others (probably offscreen because we didn't want to overload the already crowded moment).
So, tell me which AU Valkyrie group did you like seeing? And which ones you'd like to see in some spin-off one-shot? For me, the Lantern Valkyries, the Ranger Valkyries, the Sailor Valkyries, and possibly the Lesbian duo. I may be willing to do a couple one-shots on these AU Valkyries for YYGDM: Gaiden, but that depends on readers interest. ;)
We also know YYGDM!Mist is still inside Ultimate Grimhilde. That unfortunately means saving her, which I know some of you are like 'yuck really?' Yes, because at the end of the day, she ended up being Neo Grimhilde's pawn.
Regarding the Persona 5/Code Vein/Nioh/Kakegurui side story: Yes, this is the debut of these characters in my stories. These are the same cast from Ford1114's Persona Vein. This is in fact the entire interlude chapter from his fic. So if you haven't read it there, you've already read it here. If what you've seen intrigues you, go and check out Ford1114's fic. That's partly a reason why this side story was included here: as shameless promotion for Persona Vein. The second reason is due to me taking interest in the Persona franchise, starting with 5 since it's the recent entry. Thirdly, it's to serve as a warm-up to my eventual progression into novel writing (although I've already started writing my first novel) and it'll be somewhat of a return to basics with writing more personal/low profile storytelling. After all the chaos in this stretch of Cross Generations chapters, it'll be a welcome change. The fourth reason is so I can feel comfortable writing this new cast of characters before Ford passes the reins of me taking over writing the untitled Persona Vein sequel. All things considered, I think I did ok on my first outing writing these characters. The untitled PV sequel will be a challenge.
If you for some reason decided to skip over the PV stuff, then that's fine. It was to help promote Ford's fic and expand my writing horizons beyond my comfort zone.
The main story stuff: To say a lot of stuff happened is a big understatement. You had some on-screen character deaths, which I warned would happen, and expect more to fall in the next chapter.
This chapter showcased the other DF-616 Prime heroes: this dimension's variations of the Tamers (w/o Sixth Ranger-type like Ryo or an OC like Himura), the Legendary Warriors, the Spirit Detectives, and the Duelists. Look at that, it's practically the YYGDM cast! But they've been in the shadows of the Digital Fused warriors. Additionally, they've been joined by Inuyasha, Sakura Kinomoto, and several members of the Tenchi cast! Yes, the DF-616 Prime dimension is home to this spectacular roster of 90's-early 2000s anime characters. Fun fact: While Inuyasha and Sakura were never planned for YYGDM, the Tenchi cast was, but decided against and used the YYH cast. In hindsight, I made the right choice. While I like the Tenchi series, YYH became one of my all-time favorite anime/manga series. It rivaled Dragon Ball as a favorite Shonen Jump series, influenced me to develop myself as a writer & writing for certain characters (which may play a factor in writing my novel characters), and ultimately later on picking up on Hunter x Hunter. Moreover, it allowed me to crossover YYH with Sailor Moon (reflecting the marriage between Togashi and Takeuchi) and leading to dynamic relationships like Sailor Mars/Hiei, Sailor Jupiter meeting the likes of Yusuke & Kuwabara, and interconnecting the relations between Spirit World & the Silver Millennium ages ago (while incorporating an OC like Okami Inuki to establish the YYH/SM relations).
The Synister Lords have been introduced. For the longest time, I left off the original Digimon Fusion/D-Fusion series with one unresolved plot: the Synisters. I never had the chance to go back and explore them (which is funny because Togashi didn't explore much of the Demon World in YYH and rushed the Demon Tournament due to health reasons). In my case it wasn't health-related reasons, I just wasn't feeling up to it and was on a fever pitch in writing the YYGDM: The Invasion of the Rajita. But here we are years later and Ford convinced me to bring them out for this finale. He helped me to develop what these creatures might look like. So, he based them on the monsters from the recent Devilman Crybaby series. The Synister Lords are based on the Pillar Men from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (2012) (or even the manga since these characters have been around since the late-80s). To counteract these demon lords, we have Ordinemon (of Digimon Adventure tri., but not that exact character) to fight the Synister Lord trio. Rasielmon and Raguelmon return to make a difference and set up a reboot to restart the entire DF-616 Prime world. We'll see if that succeeds or not in the next chapter. Though judging by how badly Ordinemon is faring, chances are the reboot may be a dud.
The main DF-616 villainous trio fuse into a Kaijuu-sized monster and take it to their adversaries. Before that, Furizlor meets his end at Burizalor's hand (ala Vegeta killing off Nappa) and Tamara & Willow fuse into Wimara (our Kefla expy).
Zeed transforms into his exact dragon form used to fight DF-616 Prime's greatest champion, Galactic X. This version is inherently weaker since Zeed X holds most of his previous incarnation's power, which would explain why Ultimate Madoka, YYGDM!Sailor Moon, and Houou Mars are faring well against it.
Before I get to the last moments involving Zeed X, how can I forget about the big nugget of a surprise inside the Colony Orcus HM (which used to be Colony Chaos HM): GranDracmon! Who saw this one coming? Kensuke's first main nemesis makes his last hurrah and uses Orcus to bait him into a fight. Kensuke kills him, saves Orcus, and looks like a happy ending, right? Wrong. Zeed X's trap ensnares them and turns them into the engine of hate and destruction: ZarcDramon X.
And yes, all those dimensions listed above are the worlds ZarcDramon X destroyed. This was all a ploy to turn the omniverse against Kensuke and destroy his reputation. This even includes the S.H.I.E.L.D. organization in Kensuke's world (complete with Fury saying those last words his MCU counterpart say before turning to dust, lol).
The Kuipers are the latest Senshi to gain their princess forms. Like the Planetary Senshi, their Cornerverse counterparts also achieved their princess forms during Shinnen: New Years final battle. And speaking of Kuipers, Sailor Eris returns and gets a boost from her 'brother'. Said brother, Berserker/Male Eris, makes a bold sacrifice. We knew you well, Tyler West-Stonebagel. May your name live on with one of Taylor's future children when and if she has some.
Tike is back! Yes, the little knucklehead with a potty mouth rejoins his D3 friends. And who's this other person he's referring to that left Other World with him? Can it be who we think it is?
Finally, Zeed X reveals his latest recruit (or, should I say recruits since there's two). Jirenmon is the recruit that Zeed X hinted at if you read the latest YYGDM: Gaiden chapters (the Prelude to the Defiants two-parter). With Jirenmon is Toppomon, the two strongest of the Digital Pride Troopers. These are the final obstacles that our heroes have to beat if they want to fight Zeed X. Two God of Destruction-level beings getting involved in the mix is looking grim for our heroes.
Welp, I think I said enough since this story has gotten long. Hope you took your time reading this, because it is one mammoth of a chapter.
Until the next chapter, send a review. We've got four chapters left in this thing. I hope to make these last four count. Take care!
