Zurumon

Zurumon is a Slime Digimon. It was produced from the fusion of an extra-malignant computer virus and a computer hacker's evil desires, an evolutionary origin which differs from other Digimon of the special Slime type. It operates its supple body skillfully in order to crawl across the ground. The substance that composes its body is powerfully toxic, and because it spews venom-tinged bubbles from its mouth, even larger Digimon won't approach.
