Digimon Xros Wars DIGIMON EXPO'25 Reading Drama

Akashi Tagiru and Gumdramon entered a time portal. They found themselves in a place full of galleries and adults, which upset Tagiru but Gumdramon told him that the more people in the audience, the more hype it'd be, which Tagiru agreed with. Tagiru then introduced himself as a Digimon Hunter and Gumdramon as his partner. The audience applauded them, which made Tagiru realize that they all had watched Digimon Xros Wars. Gumdramon thought they were famous and Tagiru proclaimed they'd have a great Digimon Hunt today and show off as the superstars they were. Amano Yuu and Damemon then showed up and criticized Tagiru for thinking he was the only one around. Tagiru was surprised the Old Clock Shop Man called more people, which Yuu and Damemmon confirmed, the latter pointing out the Old Clock Shop Man would never trust Tagiru and Gumdramon alone with a hunt, which angered Gumdramon. Said Old Clock Shop Man then showed up, stopped their fight, and explained to Tagiru that they had leapt through time 15 years after their final battle, which shocked Tagiru, but he continued his explanation nonetheless, saying that several human-loving Digimon had gathered there but their spirit had caused space-time to distort, which caused a Digimon to get lost and wander around the area. He asked them all to join forces to hunt that Digimon. Tagiru wondered if that "all" meant it wasn't just them, which Kudou Taiki confirmed as he arrived on the scene. He was followed by Aonuma Kiriha, Shoutmon, Dorulumon and Hinomoto Akari, all of which said something about the situation. Tagiru then wondered why Tsurugi Zenjirou wasn't with them and Taiki and Akari answered, in perfect harmony, he was too much of a pain so they left him behind. Tagiru agreed with that but then wondered why Amano Nene wasn't there either. Yuu explained that, during their final battle, Kiriha had fought alongside legendary heroes that were all pretty girls, which left Nene in a sour mood.

The Old Clock Shop Man then interrupted their conversation to explain the target of their hunt: the illusory Digimon, Sakuradamon. Gumdramon thought it had to be a really savage Digimon to bring so many people to hunt it, but the Old Clock Shop Man said it was actually a very good-natured Digimon, just one that was very picky about its restaurants and would snap and cause an angry mess if it found a bad one. Taiki realized that meant Sakuradamon could cause lots of trouble, something that was proven true immediately as they heard an explosion coming from Jinbōchō. Said explosion was indeed caused by Sakuradamon, which Akari and Tagiru pointed out was both huge and making a very scary face, which made the latter wonder how this was meant to be a good-natured Digimon, which the Old Clock Shop Man pointed out had to be caused by a really bad restaurant, one Yuu never wanted to go to. Sakuradamon left towards Suidōbashi. Tagiru said they had to hunt it and Taiki called everyone to Super Evolve. As Tagiru Chikara! played, Tagiru, Yuu, Taiki and Kiriha super evolved their Partner Digimon (Gumdramon > Arresterdramon, Damemon > Tuwarmon, Shoutmon/Shoutmon (King Ver.) > Omega Shoutmon, Metal Greymon > Zeke Greymon). However, despite all attacking at once (including Dorulumon), they couldn't hurt Sakuradamon at all. Arresterdramon was attacked separatedly but was saved by Mervamon. Arresterdramon wondered where she came from and Akari pointed out she Reloaded her, as she had a Xros Loader of her own now and brought everyone's Digimon with her. Yuu pointed out that Nene giving Akari her Digimon meant she must be really mad at Kiriha, but Kiriha just asked him to postpone that conversation and called to Taiki, who himself told everyone to go for a Great Xros. Tagiru wondered if they could do it and the Old Clock Shop Man confirmed there were no restrictions on Reloading anymore as DigiQuartz had been eliminated. This made Tagiru realize that Taiki had had Shoutmon and Dorulumon out together all this time. Arresterdramon was overjoyed he got to DigiXros with his king. Taiki called everyone to give their power to Shoutmon. With WE ARE Xros Heart! (ver. X7) playing, Taiki (Omega Shoutmon, Ballistamon, Dorulumon), Kiriha (Zeke Greymon), Akari (Sparrowmon, Starmons, Mervamon), Yuu (Tuwarmon) and Tagiru (Arresterdramon) Great Xrossed their Digimon into Shoutmon X10. Tagiru was impressed by the new DigiXros and Yuu pointed out it was a shame they couldn't show the audience what it actually looked like. Shoutmon X10 then used his Tens Victorize which one-shot Sakuradamon, Taiki called Tagiru to capture it once it turned into data, and Tagiru did so. The Old Clock Shop Man then took Sakuradamon's data so it could be reborn as a Digitama in the future.

Digimon Adventure

Reaching the next Area 1 in Episode 73, "Dragon Beast! Arresterdramon", Yagami Taichi, Agumon and Hackmon immediately saw Gankoomon about to fight Akashi Tagiru and Arresterdramon. However, Gankoomon easily swatted Arresterdramon aside while remarking his inexperience. Taichi then got closer to Gankoomon but he left in a flash of light. Arresterdramon apologised to Tagiru for letting Gankoomon get away but he was ready to just go look for him again. Taichi then asked Tagiru if he was Kudou Taiki's friend, which caused Tagiru to scream and run for a moment, because he had completely forgotten about Taiki. He then decided to go back but Arresterdramon asked him what to do about Taichi and the others. Tagiru accepted he forgot about them too but then asked them to team up, which Taichi agreed with.

Tagiru and Arresterdramon then join the party as guests. Arresterdramon can't be controlled, has 9999 HP and infinite SP. He can deal damage to all enemies with Prism Garrett, deal damage to one Digimon with Spin Caliber, deal multiple hits to one enemy with Mach Flicker, heal the entire party for 2000 HP with Giga Heal +, or increase his attack and defense with Focus. He can take two actions per turn thanks to his Continuous Action support ability.

In Area 2, Tagiru introduced himself and Arresterdramon. He stated he was Taiki's junior and a Digimon Hunter, the latter title shocking Taichi and Agumon, but he added they didn't take other people's Digimon, which calmed Agumon down.

In Area 3, the black shadow appeared once again and took the form of Arresterdramon. The real Arresterdramon identified it as a fake, and Tagiru realized it was the same phenomenon he was told about. After defeating it, both pairs of huamns and Digimon complimented each other. Tagiru thought that meant Taichi could go home, but then Gankoomon reappeared. He said that they, the Chosen Ones, had finally arrived. Agumon wanted to get revenge for Hackmon while Tagiru wanted to capture Gankoomon. Hackmon finally recovered and Gankoomon asked him if he finally trained properly, while Hackmon asked him if he let a silly little punch get him down. They both then laughed, to everyone's confusion. Hackmon explained Gankoomon was his guardian of sorts, Agumon asked him why he attacked Gankoomon previously then, and Hackmon answered he always did that as a sort of daily ritual for them, because otherwise Gankoomon would get him instead. Taichi thought they hated each other and were mortal enemies. Tagiru asked him what he was since he clearly wasn't a normal Digimon. Hackmon answered Gankoomon was one of the Royal Knights who protected the order of the Digital World, and someday he'd be just as strong. Taichi then asked Gankoomon why he trapped them in the Digital Dungeon. Gankoomon explained they needed them to correct the distortions in the digital fields as something with great power had forced itself into that space and was hastening its collapse. Agumon asked him what said distortions were, and Gankoomon explained that distorted fragments of the Digital World were gathering in the Digital Dungeon, forming a being which copied the appearance of the Partner Digimon and continued to grow without any conscience. If they ignored the copies, they would continue to permeate through things and gain power, and if they overflowed from the Digital Dungeon, they would completely cover the Digital Field. Taichi realized that would affect their world too. Gankoomon pointed out there wasn't much time left before that space collapsed, so he opened the door to the spatial core that controlled it for the Chosen Ones while he staved off the collapse. He then called Hackmon to his side and told him he was still immature but his potential exceeded even Gankoomon's own, so he was to lead the Chosen Ones to the spatial core to fix the source that had gone haywire. Taichi and Agumon refused to run away from the issue and Tagiru and Arresterdramon wanted to join them. Hackmon called them, and Tagiru stated he had reached his limits in his training as a Digimon Hunter so he was ready to show them a real Hunt. Gankoomon stated that, to do so, they first would save the Digital Field. Taichi and Agumon were confident they would find a way to do it.
