Later on, to Kaneda's dismay, the bug he caught is actually MetallifeKuwagamon who later on takes the boy as a hostage to cover his escape. Eventually, Tagiru and the others find MetallifeKuwagamon with Arresterdramon defeating him while Tagiru saves Kaneda. However, Tagiru realizes MetallifeKuwagamon cannot be captured as the Digimon reveals that his data belongs to an evil Digimon Hunter. Suddenly, before he can reveals his master's identity, an evil being with red eyes and mouth deletes MetallifeKuwagamon before attempting to suck the Digimon Hunters into it. But at the very last minute, Taichi Yagami (who arrives with WarGreymon) and Masaru Daimon (who arrives with ShineGreymon) arrive to the Hunters' aid. With the two youths' help, Tagiru remembers his bond with Gumdramon and that allows Arresterdramon to assume his Superior Mode and destroys the evil being. Taichi and Masaru take their leave, with the former explaining to a confused Tagiru that he will know them soon enough. Meanwhile, while trying to help Nene in Hong Kong's Digi Quartz, Kiriha encounters Mimi Tachikawa and Ruki Makino as they intend to help the two in relation to the final battle about to occur in Japan very soon. ||||||

| What seemed to be a normal day for Tagiru goes awry when his school is being absorbed into DigiQuartz before finding a Tsumemon that Digivolves into Keramon. When Ryoma arrives, Keramon Evolves into Chrysalimon as Arresterdramon and Astamon respectively Xros Up with Ogremon and Triceramon. However, Chrysalimon spreads DigiQuartz to Tagiru's house, making his mom and dad disappear among with other people. Hearing from Ryoma that the rest of the world would follow if this continues, revealing how he got caught up with Digimon, Taiki's group and Ryoma's group join forces to free the kidnapped victims and join the others as they demand answers from a non compliant Old Clock Store Owner. By that time, Chrysalimon Super Evolved to Infermon and overpowering the Hunters' Digimon until Tagiru and Ryoma execute a Double Xros between Arresterdramon and Astamon. With Astamon's fire power, Xros Up Arresterdramon battles Infermon until it turns into the same mysterious entity seen before and combines with others into a blob from which Diablomon emerges. With Yuu, Nene and Kiriha, Taiki forms Shoutmon X7 to aid Xros Up Arresterdamon and destroy Diablomon. However, the mysterious monster transforms into its true form: Quartzmon. ||||||

| The Old Clock Store Owner explains that to defeat Quartzmon, one of the Digimon Hunters must prove him/herself stronger than all the others to obtain the Brave Snatcher, what remained of Bagramon, and infuse it with the powers of Taiki and the five Legendary Heroes from other time-space universes who saved their respective Digital Worlds. Before sending Tagiru, Ryouma and Noboru's teams, and a few other hunters to a separate dimension, the Old Clock Store Owner gives Akari and Zenjirou their own Xros Loaders so they and the reformed Xros Heart United Army can help keep Quartzmon at bay. Finding themselves fighting an army of Myotismon clones which emerged from Quartzmon, Xros Heart forms Shoutmon DX, XrosUpBallistamon with Deputymon, XrosUpDorulumon with PawnChessmon, XrosUpTsuwamon with SuperStarmon and XrosUpMervamon with Beelzemon. The fight takes turn for the worse when some of the Myotismon digivolve into MaloMyotismon and a group of VenomMyotismon. Just when the children are about to be defeated, Masaru and his Agumon appear with Taichi and Agumon, Daisuke and Magnamon, Takuya, Takato and Guilmon. From there, the two Agumons assume their Mega forms while Takato Biomerges with Guilmon to become Dukemon while Takuya becomes Aldamon. When Magnamon reverts to Veemon, reinforcements arrive as Yamato, Ken, Grani, and Takuya's team mates enable their leaders' Digimon to become Omegamon, Imperialdramon, Dukemon Crimson Mode, and Susanoomon. After having ShineGreymon assume Burst Mode, Masaru supports ΩShoutmon in fighting some of the MaloMyotismon while Imperialdramon assumes his Fighter Mode to finish off the VenomMyotismon. Meanwhile, the other hunters step down from the dispute of who is the ultimate hunter with Tagiru and Ryouma fighting for the position. After Ryouma emerges the victor, he successfully obtains the Brave Snatcher. However, just as the six heroes prepare to fight with Ryouma and Astamon to defeat Quartzmon, Ryouma suddenly knocks down Taiki and ΩShoutmon using the Brave Snatcher while revealing that he is actually allies with Quartzmon, whose true plan is mass genocide of humanity and making DigiQuartz the new human world. ||||||

| Though it seemed Ryoma had betrayed the Hunters, Astamon reveals to Tagiru he is actually Quartzmon's Terminal and has been manipulating Ryouma the entire time. Once slide-evolving into his true form, Quartzmon reveals that he used Ryouma to obtain enough Digimon data to construct his main body before fusing into it and burrowing underground to digitize the Earth for asborbing. The Old Clock Store Owner has everyone gather around him to lend the power from their Xros Loaders, while having Clockmon temporarily freeze time to halt Quartzmon's digitizing of all life on Earth long enough for Tagiru to obtain the Brave Snatcher. Taiki then passes his goggles to Tagiru, then asks him to hunt Quartzmon using the combined strength of himself and their predecessors. While the others are digitized, Tagiru and Arresterdramon proceed to hunt down Quartzmon with the latter assuming Superior Mode and Digi-Xrossing with the Brave Snatcher to break Quartzmon's core at the root. With Quartzmon reduced to a DigiEgg and everything restored, the DigiDestined, Tamers, Legendary Warriors, and DATS agents return to their universes while the Xros Heart and Hunter Digimon return to their respective human and Digital worlds. However, a month later, Gumdramon returns to the real world and is reunited with Tagiru. The Old Clock Store Owner appears in front of Taiki and Yuu, cryptically revealing himself as a resurrected Bagramon (Lord Bagra) and that his reasons for helping them was to make up amends for his role in Quartzmon's creation. He also reveals that some Digimon have remained in their world and tells them to be on their guard. ||||||
