He targets the KaratsukiNumemon Mountain for its fractal code but is unable to determine where the key is. He threatens the local population, but because they don't know where it is, he kidnaps the females. When he returns, Grumblemon finds that the KaratsukiNumemon are threatening 's, but he could care less. He makes short work of them due to his ability to slide evolve into Gigasmon.

Grumblemon manages to take the H Spirit of Ice during battle. He is interrupted by bursting out of the temple, defeating his Golemon and driving him off. He returns after trapping most of the DigiDestined in the forest. Grumblemon taunts Takuya with his inability to control his Beast Spirit, knowing that he went out of control as. Despite both his mental attacks and his taking Tommy hostage, Grumblemon is unable to best BurningGreymon and has both the H Spirit of Ice and B Spirit of Earth taken from him before he is forced to flee.

Extremely angered, Grumblemon joins his fellow Warriors in tracking the DigiDestined to the Forest Kingdom where they ambush them and after they revive. Seraphimon handily takes care of the Warriors but falls when Mercurymon redirects his own attack at him. Seraphimon's data is taken, but Zoe manages to save the Digi-Egg. The DigiDestined escape through a hidden exit, and the fallen Warriors are stalled by Sorcermon's sacrifice from taking chase immediately. Grumblemon, along with Arbormon, tracks the DigiDestined to the Blue Cave. He summons a whole horde of Golemon to aid him, and while Arbormon holds of and Lobomon, he heavily damages Tommy and J.P.

For the first time in a long while, the ten Warriors stand together and work to drive off the Royal Knights, though the Village is lost. The purified Warriors acknowledge those who defeated them, and Grumblemon's Digi-Egg returns to the batch being saved by the Trailmon, atoning for their past.

At the end, when it looks like all is lost, the ancient Ten Legendary Warriors reawaken in their Spirits, and takes Grumblemon's form first to provide support and then defeat  once and for all by joining the other Human Hybrids in slashing through his  form.

Gigasmon is Grumblemon's de facto battle form, where he uses his raw strength to deal immense damage. He has completely mastered this form, and his first uses involves him utterly wiping the floor of the. It takes the B Spirit of Light and to hand him anything resembling to a defeat, but his control over his Beast form is a marked contrast compared to the others, who fall prey to the Beast form's feral instincts.

He is handed a crushing defeat when once Takuya Kanbara gains full control over the form, and Grumblemon loses the B Spirit of Earth to Takuya at this point, preventing him from assuming this form again.
