 * Previous Part ←—→ Next Part

Sticks the Badger and Mega Man X have arrived at the Ancestral Steep at the world of Monster Hunter from the Genesis Portal on their air transport, with Sticks riding on top of X's shoulders. Sticks then comments that a scarf would look good on X, with X commenting that he'll take that into consideration, but that they first need to track down the Mavericks with the Unity Engine. Sticks then asks if some people nearby were them, with X confirming it. X then recognizes the Mavericks as being the X-Hunters and expressed shock and disbelief that Sigma had to resurrect them as well before yelling at the X-Hunters' helpers, the cat-like hunters Felyne and Palico (who were dressed up as both Sonic and Mega Man), to get out of there, with Sticks telling them to shoo after confirming what X said. Agile then told X that he wasn't specific when checking their credentials as they were indeed hunters, as the two cat hunters brace themselves.

Meanwhile, Amy Rose and Mega Man (the former riding on an air board and the latter riding on Rush) arrived at Morning Land's Forest Village via a Genesis Portal in the world of Billy Hatcher, with Mega Man noting that the world is pristine before mentioning they have to stop the Mavericks. Amy then mentions she heard a battle nearby, with Mega Man stating that if the Mavericks activate the Unity Engine, all of the life will be destroyed in this world. Meanwhile, Billy Hatcher and his friends Rolly Roll, Chick Poacher, and Bantam Scrambled are using their egg powers to overwhelm the Maverick Wind Crowrang. The crow-like Maverick expresses shock at being beaten by an egg and struggles to get up, with Billy Hatcher stating they've had experience dealing with crows before finishing him off, though he expresses disappointment when seeing that he didn't get fruit as a result, due to beating crow-like monsters usually yielding fruit.

Meanwhile, Rotor and Bubble Man are fighting against Burn Dinorex at the Drowned Ruins on the world of Panzer Dragoon. Bubble Man is dodging Burn Dinorex's attacks, with Bubble Man being terrified at the future robots being scary. Rotor then proceeds to dive underwater, although not before telling Bubble Man to distract the maverick while he gets into position. Bubble Man then uses Bubble Lead on Burn Dinorex while yelling that he's the weapon here so he shouldn't be told what to do. Rotor then swims at a rate that causes a swirling trail to appear on his lower half. He then emerges and uses the ability, called Drill Rush, on Burn Dinorex. Burn Dinorex then notices that Gigavolt left him behind and denounced him as a coward at labored breaths, but nonetheless manages to activate the Unity Engine, to Rotor's horror.

Meanwhile, at the lost shore of the steel grave at the world of Breath of Fire III, Hard Man and Big the Cat are traversing the area. While this is going on, the last of the Dragon Brood Ryu and the holy warrior guardian Garr are fighting against Toxic Seahorse and Spiral Pegasus, and the princess of wyndia Nina, the engineer Momo, and the chrism-powered robot Honey are close to the Unity Engine. Momo is distracted with analyzing the Unity Engine, noting that it was definitely recent and shows no sign of wear, while Nina is attempting to warn the distracted engineer that Spiral Pegasus is headed in their direction. Momo then, after apologizing, proceeded to use the Cyclone Spell with Nina at Spiral Pegasus.

Meanwhile, at Yurian Forest at the world of Golden Axe, Shadow Man and Antoine D'Coolette are at the location, with Antoine telling Shadow Man to follow his lead as he has more experience of the inter-dimensional travelling, albeit only due to his listening to Sonic's stories, much to Shadow Man's disbelief. Antoine then gets startled when he sees the dwarven warrior Gilius Thunderhead fending off a golden lion-like maverick, eventually decapitating it in a single blow after flipping it onto it's back. Gilius then sees Shadow Man and Antoine and believes them to be Death Adder's minions and notes they are getting stranger by the second. Antoine then tells him in a panicked manner that they aren't minions and in fact they came to help him. Gilius then puts away his axe and tells them that if that's the case they should hurry up as they're about done here.
