On this journey, they realize that certain ghosts of their past have not yet left the world.

Synopsis
(Only the most important details of the plot are written in here, minor details can be imagined by readers themselves. The same thing goes for any possible quotes from the dialogue.)

The new Digi-Egg
Ever since the Digiversum has been rejuvenated, new Digi-Eggs have started to be reformatted from what remains from every Digimon that had died after the Dark Wave but before the Recreation, the event that rejuvenated the Digiversum after Yggdrasill had awakened and the Great Demon Lords of Deadly Sins defeated. One of the eggs is white with red lightning-formed pattern. Elecmon prepared to come to care for it, but the egg started to move on its own. Elecmon couldn't believe what he just saw. The Digimon inside had was seemingly mature enough, but had not yet chosen to hatch. But how it could move around while is still inside the egg? But then, he spoke to someone and agreed not to follow the egg while he would have wanted to follow his instincts. But in an unspecified location, a computer activated and it started to make experiments with mysterious black secretion.

Reconstruction
Several wooden construction contraptions are used to rebuild the village where Agumon and Gabumon originally lived before becoming the Partner Digimon of Tadao Deguchi. The Recreation had only rejuvenated the parts of the Digiversum that were inhabitable and made the rebirth of the deceased Digimon possible again. But any devastated buildings, villages, towns and cities had to be rebuilt with hard work. Agumon and Gabumon still had the Digivice but they had not been in contact with their latest Tamer Yoko Deguchi for few weeks and Yoko had already decided to retire from being a Tamer as well. But Agumon and Gabumon still needed their Rookie forms so they hadn't yet become one with and assume their Mega form permanently. The youngest ones of the village greatly idolize them and wish Omegamon would remain as their protector. But these thoughts are immediately rebuffed by other Digimon. Every other former Partner Digimon who came from the Digital Middle World, excluding Gaomon, had already assumed their Mega forms permanently. The village was not as large as most of the other places in the File Island and the village was almost good as new. Even the fountain was sending fresh drinking water into the village so the villagers no longer needed to go collect from other places.

Three lost boys
During the village reconstruction, one of the residents of the village has returned from scouting mission, telling that three humans have arrived into the File Island. Each of them was underage and had not come through a portal that looked like being opened with a Digivice. Agumon and Gabumon left the reconstruction site to go meet these three humans. It was told that these humans are the same age as Tadao Deugchi and his friends were when they first arrived on the Digital Middle World. Agumon and Gabumon wondered if the Digiversum was in danger again and if these three were meant to be new Tamers. But they hoped it wasn't the case.

They found from the forest three boys who went by the names Sean, Tomokazu (nicknamed Tom) and Jorge. They were amazed to see Agumon and Gabumon whom they considered as legendary heroes. The three boys come from New York City and have wanted to become Tamers ever since they saw the previous Tamers saving the world. Only few hours ago, a portal had opened and they were brought into the Digital Middle World. Agumon and Gabumon realized that the boys were different from Tadao and his friends, since these boys already knew about the Digiversum and had always wanted to visit it. The boys have many questions they want to ask, including why the two haven't assumed their Mega forms permanently. Instead of giving the answer, the two decided to just take them to the village.

Discovering the Egg
On their journey back, Agumon and Gabumon see a Digi-Egg. It was the same one that had escaped the Shrine of Rebirth on its own. The three boys helped to pick it up, wondering what kind of a Digi-Egg. This time, the egg didn't move at all. In the village, the egg was taken to the other young Digimon of the village. Unknown to them, a black signal in a form of energy peak in the data lines of the ground reacted to both the egg as well as Agumon and Gabumon. The single went into the previously seen unknown location and activated the tanks full of the black secretion. The secretion started to change its form.

In the village, they wondered where the egg had come from. Agumon and Gabumon got a scent that Elecmon had been taking care of it once, but they had no idea why the egg had ended up this far away from the Shrine of Rebirth. Elecmon was usually very careful and only left the Shrine he had to go find food. Then, the egg started to hatch. A small black yellow-eyed Digimon named Botamon came out of it. Botamon was known as the Fresh form of Agumon, but normally the Digi-Eggs of Agumon species normally looked orange with dark blue stripes. So, the Digimon this Botamon would evolve to may not be an Agumon. However, the eldest residents of the village thought that this Botamon was a special one, but before they could go further in their explanation, they sensed that a danger was approaching.

First attack of the Black Army
Something started to crawl out from the ground like moles. Agumon and Gabumon were greatly disturbed of what they saw. It was a group of several Agumon and Gabumon with black skin and yellow eyes. BlackAgumon was already a familiar species when he had encountered one created by Fake Agumon Expert over two and half years ago. But the existence of BlackGabumon was a surprise to them both. However, they didn't know who had created them this time. Fake Agumon Expert was dead and couldn't have been reborn as the same evil Digimon he used to be.

Agumon and Gabumon realized that they were in disadvantage. If every BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon was just like the original BlackAgumon that became BlackWarGreymon, each of would learn to evolve at the very moment they see Agumon and Gabumon would evolve. Agumon and Gabumon tried to attack the enemies in their own Rookie forms, but were outnumbered. Instead of endangering villagers, they decided to lure the enemy out of the village. It worked, the invaders were only interested of Agumon and Gabumon. The three boys wanted to follow the two so they too went outside of the village. During the confrontation, Agumon and Gabumon accidentally activated their Digivices, some of them weakened the BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon, making them dissipate and their data to flow into others. Empowered ones evolved into BlackGreymon and BlackGarurumon.

Agumon and Gabumon were forced to evolve into Greymon and Garurumon to fight back. But every single BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon learned to evolve as well. However, now that they were outside of the village, Greymon and Garurumon could fight without causing any more damage. But it was a mistake from the three boys to be there. The BlackGreymon and BlackGarurumon degenerated and kidnapped Tom, while Jorge tried to run away. Sean remained with Greymon and Garurumon while the BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon transformed into black floating metal fragments that took Tom with them and went into underground tunnels. Greymon and Garurumon degenerated and tried to look for Jorge. But every time they thought they had found him, Jorge hid himself away even further.

Leaving on a new journey
Agumon and Gabumon had managed to avoid their village from being damaged, but Tom was kidnapped and Jorge had run away. Sean was still with them and he realized that something had followed them: it was the same Botamon hatched from the special Digi-Egg. It clearly wanted to follow the three. Agumon and Gabumon had no other choice, but allow both Sean and Botamon to come with them. Sean was amazed to realize that Agumon and Gabumon could use the Digivices without their Tamer. He admitted that he and his friends had come into the Digiversum to become Tamers too. But now Tom was kidnapped and Jorge had cowardly run away.

Agumon and Gabumon said that even though Yoko Deguchi wasn't with them, they still had a connection to her, which had evolved so much that they can evolve whenever they want as long as their bond with Yoko is remembered. After that, the former Partner Digimon could either connect with Yggdrasill like the original Guardian Knights to maintain their higher forms or become regular Digimon, just like normal non-partnered Digimon. Agumon and Gabumon still needed their Rookie forms and the previous attack on them had proven it to be a wise decision. They returned to the village and said that they can't be part of the reconstruction work if they were targeted. Agumon and Gabumon already had an idea where to go: into the Digimon Academy to meet up with Agumon Expert.

Reunion with Agumon Expert
Now that the Reconfiguration had rebuilt every single portal of the Digiversum, Agumon no longer needed to use the same secret portal located in the Old Ruins guarded by Centauromon. Digimon Academy was left floating in cyberspace, but can accessed through any portal. The group went into the nearest portal they could find and set the coordinates of Digimon Academy. After stepping through, they saw Digimon Academy, which looked now livelier than it ever had before. But Gennai and the other Agents no longer worked there as Yggdrasill and Homeostasis had sent them to do something else.

Agumon Expert came to meet Agumon and Gabumon, telling that he was just about to come to warn them. He had found out how the army of BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon was created. They were made of Black Digitron, a secretion which combined with data of another Digimon can be used to create a black-colored clone of that certain Digimon. The original BlackAgumon was created through the same way. But Fake Agumon Expert had been defeated, so who was the creator of these new ones? Agumon Expert revealed that the enemies had been going through the sewer system of the Academy, including the secret laboratory of Fake Agumon Expert. The group decided to go there and investigate. However, Agumon Expert wanted to do some tests on Botamon, knowing that it was a special one. Agumon and Gabumon agreed and advised Sean to remain in the Academy as well.

Legacy of Fake Agumon Expert
Agumon and Gabumon went into the same sewer lair that once acted as Fake Agumon Expert's hideout. The place was full of books telling how to break the laws of cyberspace in the Digiversum and impossible into possible through digital sorcery. They found a book that contained notes about Black Digitron. But when they opened the book, a computer screen activated and showed up an image of Fake Agumon Expert. It was a recording he had left behind. He explained how had ensured that his research and sorcery will remain even if he is defeated. His plan was to create more powerful species of Agumon to replace the original one and become leader of that species. Agumon, however, remembered that Fake Agumon Expert would have failed anyways, because the original BlackAgumon didn't obey him after evolving into BlackWarGreymon.

But then the recording mentioned that Fake Agumon Expert had created a sentient program named B.L.A.C.K. a.k.a. Black Living Anchor Computer Keyword to automatically oversee and execute the tests to be done with Black Digitron. There was also a mentioning that B.L.A.C.K. had a secret function that would allow him to control the new BlackAgumon army even if they would try to betray him. As a part of that, Fake Agumon Expert had also ensured the creation of a BlackGabumon army as well. However, he didn't give any more details, because he knew that otherwise Tamers and any other potential opponents could try to find a way to defeat B.L.A.C.K. and his army. Agumon and Gabumon finally understood that B.L.A.C.K. must have woken up after the Reconfiguration began and was behind the attack on them. But if B.L.A.C.K. wasn't hiding in Fake Agumon Expert's former hideout, where would its actual hideout be?

Experiments of B.L.A.C.K.
In an unknown location, Tom was kept restrained on an experiment table. The place looked like a laboratory controlled with robotic arms. Tom tried to ask what they wanted from him, but no one answered. B.L.A.C.K. couldn't speak as it was just an automatic computer program. The arms took up a small sample of Black Digitron and transformed it into a liquid before putting it inside a hypodermic needle. But before the liquid would be vaccinated into Tom, Jorge appeared and tried to wreck the robotic arms. But B.L.A.C.K. moved the arms to catch Jorge as well. Jorge was strained into another experiment table. Tom thought that Jorge had run away in fear, but Jorge said he couldn't just run away and look like a coward. He had decided to come to rescue his friend, but the attempt failed and they both were now captured. B.L.A.C.K. resumed its plans and the two boys were forced to endure the pain the experiment was causing them to have.

Decisions about safety
Agumon Expert had done with tests with Botamon. He said that it would be the beginning of an entirely new species of Agumon. But unlike the BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon armies created by B.L.A.C.K., this one didn't have any connection to Black Digitron. However, B.L.A.C.K. must see it as a threat or something, just like it must be thinking about Agumon and Gabumon. Agumon Expert said that he needed to do more tests on Botamon, telling Agumon and Gabumon to leave Digimon Academy before the BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon armies can trace them.

Agumon and Gabumon didn't want to endanger Sean so they told him to stay in Digimon Academy. Sean refused to leave, because he wanted to see action and be part of fighting against B.L.A.C.K. Agumon Expert said that Sean can't sat in the Academy either, because if B.L.A.C.K. could find him it would also find Botamon. Sean said that the real reason he came into the Digital Middle World was to find his own Partner Digimon and become a Tamer too. It would have been a dream come true if he would have become new Tamer for both Agumon and Gabumon to control the power of Omegamon. Agumon and Gabumon, however, still had Yoko's Digivices. And Yoko's permission would be needed for the two to have a new Tamer or Tamers. Sean knew his dream is too unrealistic but wishes to have enough cool Digimon to be his partner. Sean decided to return to the Digital Middle World, forcing Agumon and Gabumon to go after him.

Second attack of the Black Army
When Agumon and Gabumon stepped out of the same portal they had used to get into Digimon Academy, the army of BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon was waiting for them. Tom and Jorge also appeared before them, with black armors and Black Digivices attached to them. The two tried to tell them not to attack or else the army would attack. Tom and Jorge themselves would also die if they would disobey B.L.A.C.K. They were forced to serve the evil program and command the enemy forces against their own will. The two boys were told to activate Black Digivices and they evolved three BlackAgumon and three BlackGabumon into three Virus-attributed MetalGreymon and three ShadowWereGarurumon. After seeing this, Agumon and Gabumon immediately agreed to evolve into their own Ultimate forms: Vaccine-attributed MetalGreymon and WereGarurumon. But they were outnumbered by several copies of an enemy equal to their power. They were, however, able to destroy their unevolved opponents, causing the Black Digitron they were made of to disintegrate as well. So, Black Digitron could be destroyed, but only if the enemy made of it dies first. The two desperately tried to fight the Virus-attributed MetalGreymon and the ShadowWereGarurumon to try to destroy them.

Then, some news gears were revealed to have been given to Tom and Jorge. The two started using weapons identical to body parts of certain Digimon, especially MetalGreymon. The missiles and tethered robotic arms or tentacles made the opponents even more powerful. All of this prevented MetalGreymon and WereGarurumon from protecting Sean who was surrounded by the remaining group of BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon. Tom and Jorge were ordered by B.L.A.C.K. to tell that the first attack was only meant to keep them busy so they could capture Sean as well. But the next attack would be the end of both Agumon and Gabumon species and their place being taken by the Black variations. The enemy started to retreat, but this time MetalGreymon and WereGarurumon tried to go after them.

Chaos in Agumon Expert's laboratory
In Agumon Expert's laboratory, Botamon starts to react to what has happened in the Digital Middle World and starts to glow red light. Agumon Expert tried to analyze the light, but everything starts to malfunction and Botamon breaks free. Agumon Expert tries to tell the small infant Digimon stay in the laboratory, but Botamon then starts to jump very high and uncontrollably to get away from Digimon Academy. Agumon Expert tried to go after it, but then a portal appeared and Botamon was sucked onto it. And through the same portal came few BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon. Agumon Expert uses the mystic power from its hat to enhance his mental abilities and his rod to enhance his hypnotic persuasive powers. With these abilities, Agumon Expert avoided attacks and paralyzed some of his opponents. Then, one of the paralyzed BlackAgumon started to move again and speak as well. Agumon Expert knew that it should be impossible, so there was only one clear conclusion: BlackAgumon was a puppet controlled by B.L.A.C.K. itself. That same BlackAgumon also carried a copy of Fake Agumon Expert's rod. It approached Agumon Expert and then only a red flashing effect was shown.

Evolution of B.L.A.C.K.
In the B.L.A.C.K. laboratory, Sean is being brought to the experiment table. Tom and Jorge were allowed stand next to the table where Sean asked what was this all about. He was told that B.L.A.C.K. requires a user for the third Black Digivice, so the invasion could finally begin. It would the end of all Agumon and Gabumon that exist. Then, a voice like that of Fake Agumon Expert. It was B.L.A.C.K. who had learned to imitate speaking by using words and voice tones recorded by Fake Agumon Expert when he was still alive. B.L.A.C.K. admits that it is not a real-life form, but merely a system created to govern the certain parts of the new rules Fake Agumon Expert wished to make part of the new Digiversum Yggdrasill could only interfere if this would endanger the balance of the Digiversum, but the calculations made and checked by B.L.A.C.K. had convinced the twisted program that its ways are completely justified. Black Digitron is not influenced by evil or darkness despite the black color. After all, the original BlackWarGreymon was never evil but rather a lonely creature without meaning to its life after breaking free from Fake Agumon Expert's control.

As B.L.A.C.K. manages to attach the controlling devices, weapons and the Black Digivice to Sean, it gives an order to activate the Mega Evolution. Sean was still a young person and unwilling to die just yet. He had no choice but to obey. That was when one of the Virus-attributed MetalGreymon and one of the ShadowWereGarurumon both started to glow and evolve. A new BlackWarGreymon was born from the former but this time it was controlled by B.L.A.C.K. The evolved ShadowWereGarurumon became BlackMetalGarurumon. But unlike the original BlackWarGreymon, these two were controlled by B.L.A.C.K. itself. After the evolution process was complete, B.L.A.C.K. ordered the final invasion of the Digiversum to finally begin.

Third attack of the Black Army
Botamon was still glowing red light, it had managed to find out that the laboratory B.L.A.C.K. had under its control was located near of the home village of Agumon and Gabumon. MetalGreymon and WereGarurumon had found their way back into the village and they saw how Botamon started to evolve. Koromon it evolved into had small red bands around its ears. Any of the regular Koromon never had any of those. Koromon is ever able to speak and asks what it can do to help them. MetalGreymon and WereGarurumon ask Koromon to remain in hiding, which the small Digimon did while wanting to see some of the upcoming battle.

BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon army marched out of the underground laboratory with BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon being the last ones to step out. The smaller Digimon were approaching the village in large number, but knowing that the two Mega Level Digimon were a greater threat, MetalGreymon and WereGarurumon evolved into WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon to face them. They defeated easily the unevolved Virus-attributed MetalGreymon and ShadowWereGarurumon, but BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon were too powerful. After fighting for a while, they realized they needed to release Sean, Tom and Jorge from the controlling devices keeping enslaved by B.L.A.C.K. They took up their own Digivices and called upon the light that remained inside them from their memories of Tadao and Yoko, and tried to use that power to overpower Black Digivices. They also told Sean, Tom and Jorge not to think the Tamers were more special than regular humans. B.L.A.C.K. prepared to kill the three boys if WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon would attempt to release them.

After WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon had wondered for a while what to do, something caused malfunctioning of the Black Digivices. They heard Agumon Expert's voice that revealed how after being attacked he had given up his physical form and infiltrated the network B.L.A.C.K. uses to break the three boys free by destroying the Black Digivices. Agumon Expert, however, couldn't risk his remaining data, so he decided to return to Digimon Academy to find a way to create himself a new body.

The final revelations of B.L.A.C.K.
WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon were free to fight however they could and destroyed most of the BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon armies. After every single one of them had been destroyed, something happened. The secretion no longer disintegrated. Instead, its particles started to flow into BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon. B.L.A.C.K. connects both bodies of BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon and explains the reason why he can control beings made of Black Digitron while Fake Agumon Expert could not. The secretion had not fully fused into the Digi-Eggs BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon were hatched from. It can only happen during evolution. The secretion is unstable and prevents the Digimon from being completely independent. But in Mega Level the fusion is complete and that allowed the original BlackWarGreymon be independent. That is B.L.A.C.K. was created: to inhabit the bodies of the most evolved forms and making them simply controlled puppets. This was the secret function of B.L.A.C.K. mentioned by Fake Agumon Expert in his message.

Now B.L.A.C.K. attempted to use all the Black Digitron on its possession to create itself its own body to face WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon in a battle by itself. Bodies of BlackWarGreymon and BlackMetalGarurumon broke into parts with only their helmets remaining completely unbroken. Other data of the Black Digitron transformed into armor plates that started to form a knight-like body. WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon immediately realized that B.L.A.C.K. had created a black copy of Omegamon to be used as a vessel. The vessel called itself Omegamon Zwart.

Battle against Omegamon Zwart
Omegamon Zwart immediately attacked WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon. Koromon was forced to remain hidden, but Omegamon Zwart wanted to get its hand on him to find out how he could modify his new BlackAgumon specimen to have similar special ability. Omegamon Zwart managed get its hands on Koromon and tried to analyze it. Koromon responded to this by biting, but the armor was too hard to be damaged.

WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon tried to Joint Evolve into Omegamon, but they realized that the Digivices reacted to this in strange way. The devices were about to turn into data if the Joint Evolution would happen. WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon realized that they would need to give up their status as Partner Digimon and that their evolution into Omegamon would possibly be permanent. But they would never be able to defeat Omegamon Zwart without becoming Omegamon once more. They accepted their fate and Joint Evolved into the real Omegamon. Koromon jumped out of the way when the two Omegamon started to fight each other. The battle even damaged the village Agumon and Gabumon had sworn to rebuild, but now it was damaged once again. Koromon who was unable to watch this anymore and jumped on Omegamon. Koromon had no idea how the red glow that had empowered it previously worked, but now Omegamon could feel that power as well.

Omegamon Zwart mocked the real Omegamon from its inability to fight alone, but the real Omegamon cared about the safety of the entire Digiversum rather than its own fighting capabilities. Then, Omegamon Zwart claimed that its analysis was carefully done and no miscalculations were found. But after being mortally wounded by the real Omegamon, he was told that understanding the science and laws of physics is separate from having a heart and feelings, something that the original BlackWarGreymon had. Before his deletion, B.L.A.C.K. was forced to admit that a computer program without heart and feelings has no right to act like a god.

Aftermath
Sean, Tom and Jorge had started to believe that all humans are equal, even though some of them wouldn't have Partner Digimon. That was when three Digi-Eggs and Digivices appeared before them. It was a message that the three had proven worthiness of becoming Tamers. Before the three boys decided to go through a portal back into the real world, Omegamon gave them a mission to take Koromon into the headquarters of the Network to be examined so its full powers can be discovered. The boys were worried about Omegamon, but Omegamon revealed that it still had an ability to separate into WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon and they separated from each other immediately.

The two still had one thing to do: they needed to contact Yoko and tell that it was time for both sides to move from their times as a Tamer and her pair of Partner Digimon. They went into an abandoned factory where a computer was still operational. Yoko's email address appeared on the screen with WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon thinking what to write. Their thoughts became embodied as a content for the message they planned to send. They nod to each other, knowing what they want to write into the message.

Mid-credit scene
In the Network headquarters, Sean, Tom and Jorge gave their own Digi-Eggs to be cared until they would hatch and the three would be able to join the other Tamers. Koromon was kept in a small virtual space design to make him feel comfortable. Without anyone knowing, a new kind of Digivice appears in that space.

Trivia

 * Gabumon was chosen to be co-titular character of the sequel to Agumon because of his connection as the Mega forms of both Digimon can fuse into Omegamon (Omnimon in English dub).
 * The main focus of the film is Agumon and Gabumon trying to make an important decision for their future: will they become Partner Digimon once more or will they assume their Mega forms permanently like every other former Partner Digimon.
 * The appearances of all of BlackGabumon's evolutionary forms along with those of BlackAgumon create a focus on the species represented by Agumon and Gabumon.
 * The idea of having Sean, Tom and Jorge endure their enslavement as unwilling controllers of the Black Army and then becoming real Tamers themselves in the ending is derived from plot points of the last episode of Digimon Adventure 02.
 * B.L.A.C.K. is the first completely original type of villain in the Digiversum, as having no characteristics based on any of the real-life Digimon franchise villains.
 * Agumon and Terriermon are the only installements of the Digiversum this far with fewer characters than this film.
 * This is the sixth Digiversum film with a mid-credit scene after V-Tamer: 2nd Round, Spirit Frontier Decem, Digimon 3, DigiFuse: The Omega Crusade and Terriermon.

Future
Omegamon will at least be referenced in future main installments of the Digiversum. The Special Koromon was introduced in this film to make it one of the new main characters in the three final main films of the series.
