## Plot

The film opens with a same from the seven movies (Saffron Burrows) saying that years ago in a dimension where with one day equalling one minute on Earth called the "Digital World" where digital creatures called Digimon dwell, a strange being (that is a manifestation of the remains and hatred of the digimon who failed to digivolve) came to The Digital World from beyond the "Wall of Fire" (similar to a computer's Firewall) and its presence caused the Digital World to become warped, throwing its chronology out of sync with the Real World with the help of it's byproducts The Dark Masters. To defeat this force, Five human youths were chosen and brought to the Digital World, successfully destroying the evil being. These youths were known as the "The Goons of space", and their legend was famed throughout the Digital World, with temples erected to their memories, and a prophecy that said a new generation of DigiDestined would arise when the Digital World would need them again. Some years later, some of the evil being's left over creations try to destroy and conquer the Digital World, so now may be the time to select a new group of youths to become the new DigiDestined and must transported to the Digital World to battle the evil that is about to infect it. We then cut to a African-American prisoner named Richard (Nonso Anozie) and his henchmen, sits in their prison cell watching news report about Digimon being summoned into the Real World and a mysterious black spire that has been all around the world (including London, Hong Kong, Japan, Vietnam, Australia, France, Mexico and Russia) during Christmas. Suddenly a hooded figure breaks into their prison cell. Turning back realizing his henchmen dead, He decided fight himself saying "Guess you did it really quick then", The two start to fight. After they trade blows the assailant is clearly getting the upper hand, and he bites the man as we learn the hooded figure is a vampire picks him up and throws him out of the prison building. Seven years earlier, San Francisco, Tai and Kari Kamden four years before their adventure in the Digital World. It shows their first encounter with Digimon and what happened to them (as well as the other children) when they participated in their first Digimon battle after raising a quickly growing Koromon. a young Kari sees an egg on the computer screen in their house, which turns out to be a Digi-Egg, which later hatched into Botamon. Botamon later digivolves into Koromon and then Agumon (voiced by Cas Anvar), who then goes out and unintentionally destroys a good part of the neighborhood with Kari riding on his back. A second Digi-Egg appears in the sky to reveal an evil Digimon, Parrotmon (voiced by Samuel Vincent). Agumon then Digivolves to Greymon but isn't strong enough to beat Parrotmon and is knocked out. Tai grabs Kari's whistle and wakes up Greymon, who defeats the Parrotmon and then they both disappear back to the Digital World. August 1, 2017, seven children from San Francisco (including Tai) (Timothee Chalamet, Ansel Elgort, Hailee Steinfeld, Tom Holland, Jacob Tremblay, Joey King, Lucas Hedges and Katherine McNamara) are suddenly thrust into a strange dimension called the "Digital World" while they are at summer camp. During their adventure, children Tai, Matt, Sora, Izzy, Mimi, Joe, and T.K., discover that they are in a land where digital creatures called "Digimon". Befriending seven of the Digimon: Agumon (voiced by Samuel L. Jackson), Gabumon (voiced by Chris Pine), Tentomon (voiced by Tim Roth), Gomamon (voiced by Pierre Niney), Palmon (voiced by Jenna Elfman), Biyomon (voiced by Alice Eve) and Patamon (voiced by Jamie Bell) the children learn that they have the ability to help their partners digitally evolve (digivolve) into stronger, powerful forms that can combat enemies for a short amount of time. Setting off on their journey, the children start searching for a way home. The children later learn that they are the "DigiDestined", chosen children with compatibilities with Digimon, and they are the only hope in destroying the evil that is slowly consuming the Digital World. The culprit eventually reveals himself to be Devimon (voiced by Alfred Molina), who sent Black Gears to brainwash other Digimon into attacking the children to take control of File Island, and breaks up the island scattering the Digidestined across the fragments. As the Digidestined make their way back to the centre of File Island, Devimon has his only loyal servant Ogremon (voiced by Ron Perlman), and the enslaved Leomon (voiced by Kellan Lutz) target T.K. and Patamon, as the two are the ones prophesised to destroy him. Fortunately, as the Digidestined reunite with the freed Leomon, Patamon digivolves to Angemon for the first time, destroying Devimon at the cost of his own life. However, Devimon is only the beginning as a mysterious being contacts them. The mysterious being identifies himself as Gennai (Matt Damon), asking the DigiDestined to travel to the continent Server to defeat his enemies. The Digidestined also learn from Gennai that they have the ability to help their Digimon digivolve further with the power of Crests and Tags. They discover the Tags with the help of Whamon, who then transports them to Server. However, on their second day on the continent, a powerful new enemy reveals himself. Etemon (voiced by Nicolas Cage), who runs his Dark Network across the continent, wishes to destroy the Digidestined, and attempts to prevent them from obtaining the Crests. After several conflicts with Etemon's forces, all the Crests apart from Sora's are found. The Digidestined are then contacted by Datamon, who is being forced to run the Dark Network from inside Etemon's headquarters, an upside down pyramid. The Digidestined infiltrate the pyramid and manage to free Datamon, but he immediately betrays them, kidnapping Sora and Biyomon and evading Etemon. After Izzy manages to determine that Datamon (voiced by Tom Kenny) is hiding in a secret room underneath the main pyramid, the Digidestined break in again, rescuing Sora. Datamon planned to copy Sora and use her Crest, which he discovered, to have Biyomon destroy Etemon. However, with that plan foiled, Datamon infects the Dark Network with viruses, to have it absorb Etemon. The attack destroys Datamon, Etemon's remaining forces and his fortress, but Etemon survives, grafted onto the heart of the Network and more powerful than ever. Tai, who has managed to activate his Crest through bravery, helps Agumon digivolve to MetalGreymon, who destroys Etemon and his Dark Network for good. Unfortunately, Etemon's destruction opens a rift that pulls Tai and Metalgreymon into back to San Francisco, where they encouter several mysteries. Firstly, barely minutes have passed since the Digidestined disappeared, and when Tai goes to his house, his little sister Kari (Joey King) recognises Koromon. Although they receive a transmission from Izzy pleading with them not to return to the Digital World, Tai realises he must go back to stop evil Digimon crossing a dimensional gate from the Digital World to enter Earth. Kari's part in the tale is not over however, as a new Digivice has appeared in the Kamden household. Tai returns to the Digital World to round up the DigiDestined, where he learns of another threat, Myotismon (Luke Evans), who, through his apprentice Phantomon (voiced by Liev Schreiber), has scattered the Digidestined and caused some to become disillusioned, preventing them from working together and activating their Crests. Tai's return sparks the reunion of the Digidestined, with Matt, Sora and Izzy managing to have their partners digivolve to higher levels. Myotismon then decides to enter the Real World to capture a pre-destined eighth DigiDestined child. The DigiDestined follow Myotismon to their hometown, where they discover that all seven of them saw a fight between a different Greymon and Parrotmon at San Francisco 4 years ago, the event that caused them to become Digidestined. They also deduce that the eighth child must have also been present, and start searching. Meanwhile Myotismon, as vampires do, travels through the midnight at San Francisco, looking for fresh blood from young women. This appears on news report for what described as 'Sudden Anaemia' as Tai, Matt and Kari watches it and caught the eyes of FBI agent Looker (Kenneth Branagh) who investigates the women's murders and take some photograph evidence, Myotismon's henchmen are also still searching, leading to several battles between the two sides. On the second day of the search, Salamon (voiced by Brie Larson), one of Myotismon most loyal servants, encounters Kari and is seemingly unable to attack the child. With the help of her old friend Wizardmon (voiced by Aaron Taylor-Johnson), she then realises that Kari is the eighth child, and she is her partner. The two Digimon find Kari's Digivice, which Wizardmon gives to Tai to protect Kari. They then attempt to retrieve her Crest, which Myotismon has in his possession. Myotismon and his assistant Phantomon then attacks the two, leaving Wizardmon for dead, and kidnapping Salamon. Myotismon then isolates San Francisco using a fog barrier, and begins rounding up the citizens in a Convention Centre to have Salamon identify the child. While Tai, Kari, Izzy and Matt and their Digimon all manage to evade capture, Joe, T.K. and Looker are trapped outside of the town when the fog hits, and Mimi, Palmon and Sora are captured. Tai entrusts Kari to Matt, and sets off to rescue the people from the Convention centre. Although Sora and Mimi lead an escape attempt which sees Palmon digivolve to Lillymon for the first time, Myotismon foils the plan, forcing Sora to escape with her savior Biyomon, along with the defeated Lillymon. While Izzy, Tentomon and Looker decide to try and destroy the TV station from which the fog barrier is being projected, Joe and T.K. are attacked while crossing the river, causing Gomamon to digivolve to Zudomon to save them. They then find Wizardmon, who now has Kari's Crest. Sora finds Matt and Kari, but an attack by Phantomon causes Kari to hand herself over to end the fighting. As Tai rescues Mimi, Matt, Sora, Joe, T.K. and Wizardmon arrive at the TV station, where Myotismon has also appeared with Salamon to kill Kari. A ferocious battle ensues, which only ends when Tai arrives with Kari's Digivice, and Wizardmon sacrifces himself to save Salamon and Kari from a death blow from both Myotismon and Phantomon. This causes Salamon to ultimately digivolve to Angewomon who then destroys Myotismon. However, a prophecy comes true, with Myotismon transforming into the colossal VenonMyotismon with the help of Phantomon. The Digivolution of Agumon and Gabumon into their Mega forms allows the Digidestined to destroy VenonMyotismon but Phantomon mysteriously disappears. When the fog barrier finally lifts, the DigiDestined realize that the Digital World has grown worse since their departure, when it appears in the sky above their world. Upon returning, the Dark Masters, four elite evil Digimon, Piedmon (Johnny Depp), MetalSeadramon (voiced by Brad Pitt), Puppetmon (voiced by Bradley Whitford) and Machinedramon (voiced by Brian Cox) and reveal themselves to be the true culprits behind every enemy the DigiDestined had faced thus far, and have used their absence to transform the Digital World into four territories that make up Spiral Mountain. The Dark Masters almost destroy the Digidestined in their first fight, and it is only with the sacrifices of Chuumon (voiced by Simon Pegg) and Piximon (voiced by Benedict Wong) that they are saved. The Digidestined then fight the master of the oceans Metalseadramon, who kills their old ally Whamon (voiced by Richard Kind), only to be destroyed seconds later by Wargreymon. The Digidestined begin to fight amongst themselves as they enter the forest, the domain of Puppetmon, causing Matt to leave the group. Puppetmon's ally Cherrymon (voiced by Derek Jacobi) manages to talk Matt into fighting Tai, but the fight stops when Gennai contacts the children through Kari. The being shows them that they were chosen by higher powers that balance the Digital World to become Digidestined, when the battle at San Francisco took place. Digimon, Digivices and Crests were created, and although the Dark Masters managed to steal and scatter the Crests, Gennai managed to save the Digimon, only losing Salamon on the journey to File Island. Following these revelations, Matt decides to leave the group again to work out his place in it, and Mimi also chooses to part company, as she is sick of the fighting which has claimed many of their friends. With Joe and Sora resolving to protect Mimi, the rest of the group launch an attack on Puppetmon's mansion. Joe, Mimi and Sora do not find the peace they seek, as Etemon, having finally managed to reconstitute himself as MetalEtemon, finds and attacks them. They evade him with the help of an injured Ogremon and Leomon, who has gained the ability to digivolve to SabreLeomon. Tai's group manages to defeat Puppetmon, and although he brings his mansion to life, he is destroyed when Matt and MetalGarurumon reappear briefly. MetalEtemon attacks Joe, Sora and Mimi again, and SabreLeomon is forced to sacrifce himself to help Zudomon and Garudamon destroy him. The three children then set out to gather allies for the final battle, while Tai's group enter the city of Machinedramon. Tai confronts personal demons when Kari becomes ill on his watch, and the group are spilt apart when Machinedramon attacks them, sending them falling into the sewer. While Kari and T.K rescue enslaved Numemon, Tai and Izzy find an old friend in the form of Andromon (Sam Elliott). Although the partner Digimon are exhausted, the Numemon's sacrifice to save Kari causes her to release a powerful light enabling Wargreymon to destroy Machinedramon in a single attack. The group then set off to the summit of Spiral Mountain to battle Piedmon, only for Tai to tell T.K. to reunite the rest of the group. Joe and Sora leaves Mimi to find Matt, and only discovers him after Matt has escaped from a cave created from his own inner darkness. The two then help T.K. rescue Sora from a similar cave, and arrive back at the top of Spiral Mountain, just in time to save Tai and Wargreymon. Although MetalGarurumon evens the odds, Piedmon converts them and most of the Digimon and children into key-chains. When only T.K., Kari, Salamon and Patamon are left, T.K.'s Crest of hope activates, and the newly digivolved MagnaAngemon uses his power to rescue the other children and destroy Piedmon, just as Mimi arrives with her own army to counter Piedmon's Vilemon. With the last Dark Master defeated, Spiral Mountain disintegrates and the true evil, Apocalymon (voiced by Mark Hamill) reveals himself to be their final enemy. Although he destroys the Crests, and turns the Digidestined to data, the Digidestined use their inner power to help their Digimon digivolve to their highest levels. Apocalymon is defeated, with his final attack being contained by the Digivices, and the Digital World begins to rebuild, starting with File Island. The children return to the Real World, supposedly never to return, leaving their Digimon partners behind, although Tai asserts that he is sure the portal between the two worlds won't be shut forever. Two months Later, Korbin "Izzy" Isaacs discovers a corrupted Digimon on the internet that grows by consuming data. He travels to the home of Tyler "Tai" Kamden, where they observe its consumption disrupt computer systems across United States. Kamden and Isaacs are contacted by their Digimon partners Agumon and Tentomon from the Digital World; they battle the corrupted Digimon, but are defeated. Kamden and Isaacs attempt to contact the other DigiDestined by phone, but discover that the national PSTN has crashed. Using an emergency voicemail system, they are able to contact Matt and T.K. Jordans, who are visiting their grandmother in a retirement home in Chinatown. Matt and T.K's Digimon partners Gabumon and Patamon join the fight, but are physically slowed as a result of thousands of e-mails being sent to Kamden and Isaacs by individuals observing the battle on their computers around the world. The enemy Digimon, having evolved into Diaboromon (voiced by Vin Diesel), creates thousands of duplicates of itself and hacks The Pentagon to launch an LGM-118 Peacekeeper missile at San Francisco. Kamden and Jordans magically enter their computers, and rally their Digimon to jointly evolve into Omnimon and defeat the duplicates. Isaacs forwards the thousands of emails to the original Diaboromon, slowing him enough to be defeated. With Diaboromon vanquished, the disarmed missile crashes harmlessly into San Francisco. Four years later, the Digital World comes under attack from a mysterious human calling himself the Digimon Emperor (Charlie Wright) who is enslaving Digimon with his Dark Rings while building Control Spires that negate Digivolution and act as aerials to power the Dark Rings. To fight him three new Digi-destined, Davis (Asa Butterfield), Yolei (Emma Stone) and Cody (Jack Dylan Grazer) along with T.K and Kari, each gain a type of Digivice called a D3, which allows them to open a gate to be transported to the Digital World through any computer. They are also given D-Terminals that hold Crest-themed relics called Digi-Eggs (DigiMentals) that allow Patamon and Salamon, along with the new Digimon Veemon (voiced by Matt Smith), Hawkmon (voiced by Tom Felton), and Armadillomon (voiced by Woody Harrelson) to Armor Digivolve as a counter to the presence of Control Spires. The Digimon Emperor is eventually revealed to be the boy genius Ken Ichijouji, who flees to the Digital World before the Digidestined can confront him at his home. Now permanently based in the Digital World, the Digimon Emperor steps up his plans, kidnapping Tai Kamiya's partner Agumon. The Digimon Empreror forces Agumon to digivolve to Skullgreymon, who then goes on a rampage, now able to resist the power of the Dark Ring. The Digimon Emperor then creates the Dark Spiral to control fully evolved Digimon. Agumon is eventually freed when Davis discovers a new Digi-Egg (DigiMental) allowing Veemon to Armor Digivolve to a more powerful form, Later, Kari's begins having bizarre dreams. After getting scared by T.K. accidentally making her jump, they run into school. As they run in, Nyaromon confides in Tokomon about Kari's bad dreams, and how Kari refuses to talk about them. In class, T.K. mulls over Kari's silence. Meanwhile, Kari is mulling over her dream. As she does, she realizes that the classroom is beginning to fade and a thick fog envelopes her. When the classroom disappears entirely, she finds she is in ankle-deep water. Back in the classroom, T.K. sees Kari acting differently. 'Kari!' he cries, standing up. The entire class looks round and stares at him, including Kari, whose hallucination has stopped. Then they turn to look at Kari. Suddenly, Kari closes her eyes and falls to the side in a faint. A student catches her. The teacher sends her to the nurse's office. As she walked to the nurse's office, Kari convinced herself she had fallen asleep and dreamt the water and the fog. She sees a vision of her younger self. She begins to hear water dripping. She turns to see a shadow of a Digimon with glowing red eyes. She screams. At the end of class, T.K. runs to the nurse to find Kari, but is told she isn't there. Confused he runs to check the swimming pool, library, staircase and the gate to the digital world. Suddenly, he sees her sitting outside. He runs outside to talk to her. She tells him what happened, and how she's scared the digimon are going to take her to 'their world'. In his worry for Kari, T.K. tells her he cared too much about her to let her go without a fight. Kari stares at him in astonishment. Embarrassed, T.K. stutters an excuse and runs off. That night, Kari walks out alone, and stares at the beach across the road at night. As she crosses, Nyaromon follows her, and walks down to the pavement. Then a mysterious van pops out and a group of thugs comes out of the van and kidnaps and drugs Kari, Nyaromon tries to chase after them but it was too late, That morning Tai and Kari's family tried to find her but couldn't as Looker and his police looked everything they couldn't find her or the thugs too, It later reported on the news as Cody, Davis, T.K. and Yolei watches in shock,
Meanwhile Kari opens her eyes, and finds herself at a beach. There's a lighthouse nearby, however, the colour of the whole place is completely black and white, and the lighthouse is emitting black light. T.K. tells the others that she might not be in the Digital World. Meanwhile T.K. and Tai tries to find the thugs couldn't get trace of them and soon realizes that she's wasn't kidnap but transported, and runs out to the beach to find her. Patamon and Nyaromon follow. T.K. says he should have realised she needed help yesterday. As they then realises Kari in a different dimension. Kari is exploring, and notices a cave. She wonders if it's the way back home, and goes in. She calls in the cave, and realises it's a tunnel. As she goes deeper in she hears hoarse voices calling her name. She sees shadows like the one she saw earlier. They ask her to help them. Kari notices the creatures look disturbingly ill, and asks if they're digimon. They reply that they're Scubamon (both voiced by Augustus Prew and Rob Paulsen). They say they don't know how they got to the tunnel, that they were 'serving our undersea master', and then suddenly were in the tunnel. Kari then sees Dark Rings on the Scubamons' arms, and realised the Digimon Emperor had something to do with this. The Scubamon tells her they had summoned her to help them because her trait of light allowed her to free them. She reaches forward, and grabs a Scubamon's arm. A purple light shines from the spiral, and the tunnel begins to collapse. They all run out. An Airdramon is circling ahead, and a Scubamon says it serves the Digimon Emperor. It attacks. Kari begins to despair. Tokomon, Salamon, Tai and T.K. are on the beach, shouting Kari's name. Suddenly, a white light appears, and they see Kari in the middle of it calling Tai and T.K.'s names. The four jump into the light, and are transported to the strange dimension. Seeing Airdramon, Patamon digivolves to Angemon, Salamon realises that there's a Control Spire in the lighthouse, and tells Angemon. Angemon destroys the control spire, and Gatomon digivolves to Angewomon. Angemon and Angewomon easily defeat Airdramon. Angemon and Angewomon then destroys the dark rings on the Scubamons' arms. Their bodies begin to pulsate and shift. They stand up, a completely different shape. They reach forward for Kari, and tell her she could be their queen. Angemon and Angewomon scares them back into the ocean with a warning shot. As they retreat, they tell Kari they had thought she would help them revolt against their undersea Master, but they had clearly been wrong. They said to beware of their Master, who would come for her. Kari, Angewomon, Tai, T.K. and Angemon then re-enter the white light back to the real world. Kari asks Tai and T.K. what he had meant that morning when he'd said he cared for her, and they once again stammers out an excuse. She then tells him she cares for him too. We then see a silhouette of Daemon and the Daemon corps (LadyDevimon, MarineDevimon and SkullSatamon) and a mysterious menacingly laugh from a mysterious digimon. later the same ability Hawkmon and Armadillomon later gain when Yolei and Cody find similar Digi-Eggs (DigiMentals). The Digidestined finally discover the mobile base of the Digimon Emperor, and resolve not to return home until it is destroyed. Cody and T.K manage to enter the headquarters as it enters the Dark Pool, a whirlpool in the ocean caused by a powerful Digimon, who is revealed to be what is left of Devimon, the first villain defeated by the original Digidestined. The Digimon Emperor takes Devimon's data as the final piece to complete his ultimate weapon, Kimeramon (voiced by Frank Welker), created from the parts of many Digimon, as the Digimon Emperor is unsatisfied with his own partner Wormmon (voiced by Jason Isaacs). However, while Kimeramon is able to defeat the Digidestined's partners effortlessly, Devimon's influence begins to drive the Digimon Emperor insane. After infiltrating the base a second time, and a fight with Kimeramon that almost kills the partner Digimon, Davis decides to set out to destroy the engine room of the base himself. Devimon's power causes Kimeramon to abandon his master, and Wormmon betrays the Digimon Emperor to help the Digidestined, and bring the Ken who was his friend back. In the engine room a Golden Digi-Egg (DigiMental) is found, which Veemon uses to digivolve to Magnamon. Magnamon duels with Kimeramon in a battle that destroys the base. Wormmon sacrifices himself to rescue Magnamon and give him the energy to destroy Kimeramon. Ken, who believed that the Digimon were nothing more than a game, realises he was a monster and casts off his evil side. After Wormmon dies in Ken's arms, he returns home, and the Digidestined do the same. With the Digimon Emperor defeated, the DigiDestined proceed to help the resident Digimon rebuild their homes. However, after his defeat, soul searching and the rebirth of his partner Wormmon, Ken learns of a mysterious woman (Helen Mirren) who can turn Control Spires into constructs resembling living Digimon. Though Veemon, Hawkmon, and Armadillomon were now able to Digivolve to their Champion forms, the Control Spire Digimon prove to be stronger until Ken joins the gang and Veemon and Wormmon learn of DNA Digivolution, enabling Veemon and Wormmon's Digimon to fuse with each other in pairs for more power. However, the mysterious woman, revealed to be a human-Digimon hybrid called Arukenimon, responds by creating BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon (voiced by John Boyega and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) from a 100 Control Spires. Though the construct refuses to follow her orders, Arukenimon and her lackey Mummymon (David Thewlis) take advantage of his drive to find the ultimate opponent by having him destroy the Destiny Stones that keep the dimensional barriers of the human and Digital Worlds from blending, which is what Control Spires were really built for. As BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon tries to destroy the last stone, the Digmon Sovereign Azulongmon (voiced by Mark Rylance) intervenes, and defeats BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon effortlessly. Azulongmon then explains to the Digidestined that he, along with the three other Sovereigns who guard the Digital World, was imprisoned by the Dark Masters. When the original Digidestined save the Digital World, the Sovereigns were freed. Azulongmon then plants seeds to recreate the destroyed Destiny Stones. Although he tells BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon he cannot say what his destiny is, he does warn the Digidestined the threat behind Arukenimon and Mummymon still exists. On Christmas Day, the original DigiDestined are surprised when their partner Digimon come to stay with them in the real world for the holiday. Meanwhile Matt and T.K.'s mother meets up with Davis' father at a shopping mall. After finishing their meeting, she heads off along the promenade, only to be halted by a figure in a purple trenchcoat (Mark Strong). She identifies him as Michael Williamson, a English man who investigated the mysterious happenings at San Francisco seven years ago. Michael warns her that a new "monster problem" is beginning, and that she should be careful who she lets her children hang around with. Matt and T.K.'s mother is clearly taken aback by these words, and inquires as to why he's saying all this. Michael leaves her with a hazy response before wandering off and disappearing altogether. However at a rock concert where Matt is playing with his band, a Control Spire and a large number of Digimon appear. The Digimon are quickly defeated, but the next day Control Spires appear across the world. Gennai then reappears with a DigiCore giving the DigiDestined to digivolve into Mega. This is used by Paildramon, the DNA digivolution of Wormmon and Veemon, to Mega-digivolve to Imperialdramon. The Digidestined then set off around the world, wiping out the Control Spires with the help of Looker and the international DigiDestined and sending the Digimon who appear with them back to the Digital World. When they return home, a group of powerful Digimon calling themselves the Daemon Corps (voiced by Benicio Del Toro, Malin Akerman, Clancy Brown, and Matt Dillon) arrive to kidnap Ken. Arukenimon and Mummymon also appear, with their human boss and creator, Michael Williamson. They reveal that while the Digidestined were traveling around the world, back at home they kidnapped a number of lonely children. Despite interference from Daemon himself, after his forces are killed, Looker extracts from Ken data of the Dark Spore. This is the object responsible for Ken becoming the Digimon Emperor, and Michael copies it from him to imprint into the kidnapped children, who wish to become the evil genius Ken once was. The spores develop into flowers that harvest the infected children's energy. BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon reappears, first to find the answers about their existences, and then to destroy Michael, who he deems a foreign object, belonging in neither the Real or Digital Worlds. Agumon digivolve to WarGreymon and Gabumon digivolve to MetalGarurumon to stop BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon, and it is only with the help of Imperialdramon Fighter Mode, that he manages to persuade BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon to give up his hunt for battle. When the Digidestined confront Michael, they learn he was Cody's father's best friend. BlackWarGreymon, BlackMetalGarurumon and Cody's grandfather (Dustin Hoffman) try to talk Michael out of his hunt for power and his depression, but an unseen influence causes Michael to try and kill his best friend's father. BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon steps in front of the attack and is fatally injured. Michael then reveals his actions were so he can enter the DigiWorld. BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon uses their bodies to seal the gate to the Digital World in San Francisco. One night Looker goes to a bar and realizes when hearing one of the thugs (who also their leader) Richard kidnapped and drugged Kari and transported her to a another dimension, they then interview him and his henchmen saying and claiming they were hired by Michael to kidnap and transport Kari, in completely confused, Looker then goes to and broke into Michael's house to investigate. Looker knowing his obssesed with the Digital World and Digimon guessed that the password to Michael's laptop is "Digimon" and he finds out that Michael was possessed by Myotismon! after finding out a email send to Ken has Myotismon's signature, pictures of the Dark Ring and Spiral and the Control Spire and finds the drug needle that used Kari to sleep realizes Myotismon behind all those plans and is blowing to destroy Earth and the Digital World, Looker then got informed about Richard and his henchmen who were in prison has been killed by a strange and mysterious figure he realizes is Myotismon who killed them, When Michael attempts to make his way into the Digital World through the gate, he ends up in Myotismon's castle with Phantomon appearing, with the children, Arukenimon and Mummymon. The Digidestined and Looker also follow him and both Looker and Ophanimon learn that Michael was just only a pawn/vessel for the true mastermind of it all, Myotismon!. Myotismon reveals he is the mastermind behind Kari's disappearence and kidnapping, because she was "crying to pieces through depression" and killing BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon by being inside Michael's body. He also explains he created Arukenimon and Mummymon using Michael's blood DNA and brainwashing Ken being the Digimon Emperor and also explain he created the Dark Ring based on her champion form Gatomon's tail ring and created the Control Spires to prevent the DigiDestined's digimon to digivolve, summoning the Digimon into the Real world during Christmas with Control Spires and also hired the Daemon corps to the real world. He explains that his evil plan is to unify the Digital World and Real World by "killing everyone", Looker says "But you killed women through hunger and flash" in response to Myotismon's true plan, Myotismon replies "Killed women?, Besides i'm not a human or a vampire, i'm a Digimon, do you think i killed women through back then for hunger and flesh?", Myotismon comes out of Michael's body, Myotismon then uses the power of the harvested Dark spores to become MaloMyotismon. Phantomon then killed Arukenimon and Mummymon shortly afterwards which terrified the DigiDestined. Eventually, after a long battle with aid from the DigiDestined from all over the world, the DigiDestined destroy MaloMyotismon. Though weakened from the evil Digimon's possession, a dying Michael sacrifices his physical existence to return the Digital World to its peaceful state and serve as its guardian. Three months later, the DigiDestined go up against Diaboromon again. Tai and Matt head back to the Internet to deal with him with Omnimon, while the younger DigiDestined go to deal with the rampage of a swarm of Kuramon (Diaboromon's Fresh form). With the help of Seraphimon and Ophanimon (with T.K. and Kari), Omnimon was able to destroy Diaboromon again, but it turned out to be a trap, as his destruction allowed many more Kuramon to go to the Real World. This also trapped Omnimon, Seraphimon and Ophanimon within the internet. Things go out of control when the Kuramon in the Real World merge to create a Mega level called Armageddemon, a more powerful and invincible Mega in Diaboromon's evolutionary line. It is so powerful that neither Omnimon nor Imperialdramon Fighter Mode are able to defeat it on their own even. In the end, Imperialdramon Fighter Mode is injured in Armageddemon's counterattack, so Omnimon lends him his power in the form of the Omni Blade, powering the dragon warrior up to Paladin Mode. Using his Omega Blade attack, Imperialdramon Paladin Mode is able to strike down Armageddemon, splitting his head in half and causing him to revert back into the Kuramon. With the help of the energy from the DigiDestined Digivices and the cell phones from the other kids of San Francisco, the Omega Blade powers up and sends all of the Kuramon back to the Digital World.
