Digimon Sovereigns

The Digimon Sovereigns (四聖獣), also known as the "Harmonious Ones". "Four Sovereign Digimon", and "Four Sovereign Monsters" are a group of four Mega-level Holy Beast Digimon that are derived from the Japanese myth of the Four Guardian Spirits of Kyoto, itself derived from the Chinese myth of the. Like the Guardian Spirits, they represent and rule over the cardinal points of the compass — Ebonwumon for the north, Zhuqiaomon for the south, Azulongmon for the east, and Baihumon for the west. They are led by Huanglongmon, who represents and is enshrined in the "Center", from which it supervises the others. In turn, each of the four main Sovereigns has three Deva as subordinates.

Due to Lucemon, Huanglongmon was sealed in the deepest, darkest place within the earth. This caused the Sovereigns to lose their rule and struggle for hegemony, but an equilibrium was established that is still maintained. The Sovereigns have reigned over and protected the Digital World since the age of myth, and have passed into legend as beings which are extremely difficult to track down. They are difficult to overthrow with the power of ordinary Mega Digimon, as their power is set as the highest authority among other Digimon, with strength that is said to be the epitome of gods. Unlike normal Digimon which only have one DigiCore per body, each of the Sovereigns has twelve DigiCores which float outside their body and channel their immortality and tremendous power. Except for Huanglongmon, who has eight, each of the Sovereigns also has four red, shining eyes.

While the Chinese names for the guardian spirits were used for the Digimon themselves, as well as in Digimon World 3 for the four cities at the cardinal points of the map of the Amaterasu Server, their Japanese names were used for the respective four cities of the Asuka Server.

Once all the Spiral arrived in the same place, they used the distortion to send them all to the Dark Area which was enough to get rid of all the Sprial for a long period of time. However after the Spiral suddenly arrive again they struggled to keep the Digital World safe.

Digimon Survive
The Four Sovereign Monsters are the four most powerful Kemonogami. Originally, the two worlds were combined though at some point between then and 2020, they were split into two worlds.

During the, five children were offered up to the Kemonogami in an attempt to gain their powers. One of the children had a wicked mind however, which caused the Kemonogami to turn savage. In order to help save the world, the Four Sovereign Monsters used their powers to seal them off in four different directions. They also sealed, though it eventually broke free due to their powers weakening.

Baihumon


Baihumon is one of the Four Sovereign Monsters. In the five children were offered up to the Kemonogami in an attempt to gain their powers, with Baihumon ending up being partnered to Byakko Ghost. One of the children had a wicked mind however, which caused the Kemonogami to turn savage. In order to help save the world, the Four Sovereign Monsters and their partners used their powers to seal them off in four different directions, including Haruchika and with Baihumon and his partner resting below the shrine under the amusement park.

Hundreds of years later, in 2020, the Kenzoku attack the amusement park, with the children and their friends barricaded in the throne room. The Kenzoku try to break down the barrier to get to them, though Miu Shinonome remembers about the trap door that leads to the prison and has the group go into it. The group find a secret exit that even wasn't aware of and upon going in, they find a large group of Kenzoku corpses. As they wonder who killed them, the group are attacked by another group of Kenzoku, though as they fight them Baihumon appears and kills them all with the group having stumbled upon its resting place.

Baihumon attacks the group, and as the others fight him, and Takuma's feelings, with them not wanting to lose and be unable to save the world, cause Agumon to warp evolve to Mega. As the fight continues, Byakko Ghost shows up and tells Baihumon that's enough and that the children had already earned their trust. He tells them about how he and his friends were sent to the alternate world and ended up becoming partnered to the Sovereign Monsters and that their friend Haruchika was Master. Having accepted the children, they tell them to track down the other three and convince them as well with them giving the power to evolve to Baihumon as well so that they can use his power to defeat Haruchika. They then teleport the group back to the amusement park.
