The Crack Team[1] (クラックチーム Kurakku Chīmu?) are a covert group of crackers from the Human World.[2] The leader of the Crack Team primarily employs Chaosdramon as its agent.[3] In order to further expand its sphere of influence, the Crack Team constructed GigaSeadramon in absolute secrecy and endowed it with the ability to control the sea and possession of a cruising range which covers the vast Net Ocean.[4] The Crack Team is also studying the poison distilled within Bacchusmon's body, leading to rumors that it is being used for the preparation of bacteriological weapons and is part of a plot to assassinate an important person.[5] They mostly use Cyborg Digimon because they are suitable for remodelling.[2]

Fiction[]

Digimon Seekers[]

The Crack Team are a community of anonymous code crackers. There is no membership list, and they are not friends. Even within the Crack Team the crackers have different ideologies, principles, and goals and as such sometimes fight between themselves. Their belief is they can do anything they want in the Network and Digital World.

One of the many groups within the Crack Team is the Sons of Chaos.

One group of Crack Team crackers send their Espimon to the The Last Coast to steal Digi-Eggs, as The Last Coast was known for having a large amount of them. They were amateurs though, which allowed the DigiPolice to access their GriMM chat using their technology. As the DigiPolice were in the Digital World, they would be able to see the actual battle whilst all the crackers would see is the Espimon on their devices due to being in the real world. This gave the DigiPolice the advantage, and alongside their Commandramon's camouflage are able to sneak up to the Espimon and take back the stolen Digi-Eggs. The other Commandramon surrounded and arrested the Espimon, as Satsuki Tamahime tells the crackers there's no point to running away as they had already figured out their identities, including their names, what schools they went to, and that they were members of the Crack Team. The Crack Team members fire back, telling her that they had done nothing wrong and express confusion about the fact Japanese police were getting involved in their business as this was the Digital World, not Japan. Satsuki tells them she would not allow the Crack Team to do as they please in the Digital World, even if she couldn't officially arrest them due to them being minors. This distraction allowed the Espimon to turn themselves invisible with their "Divanish" techniques but it doesn't help as Satsuki had brought two Mechanorimon with her who could track invisible Digimon. They defeat one of the Espimon, with the other two being defeated by Leon Alexander's Pulsemon who suddenly showed up and stole the DigiPolice's thunder. Unnoticed by the DigiPolice, Pulsemon also stole the Digi-Egg that had originally been stolen by the Crack Team members. Eiji: Wolf of the Ninth Avenue Chapter 1-5

When Kosuke Kisakata reboots Operation Tartarus Kosuke is able to use his charisma to convince multiple branches of the Crack Team to work together on their mission whilst Eiji Nagasumi and Loogamon go to Ninth Avenue and convince Loogamon's minions to join in on the plan. The duo are then able to convince other Digimon in the Wall Slums to join too with them all agreeing to join the uprising since it was the chance for them to return to the Digital World having been banned from returning due to being contaminated with data from the human world.

The SoC live stream the hacking, which attracts the attention of the DigiPolice. Wanting to stop them, Yulin and Satski send the DigiPolice out to attack them. As they fight the Hacker Digimon, Yulin asks for an update but learns that no members of the Sons of Chaos were actually present and instead Digimon that live in the Wall Slums were taking part in the battle alongside the Crack Team. The DigiPolice are surprised, with Ryudamon stating it had learned why they had joined. Not wanting to let the Sons of Chaos win, Yulin sends in even more units to the battle. She also tells them that they are not allowed to fight Tartarus/Dorumon and that they should tell her immediately so that she could fight them herself.

As the battle continues, the Mindlinked Marvin Jackson and Kosuke watch on as thousands of Digimon fight the gatekeepers. A member of the SoC contacts Kosuke and tells him that the DigiPolice had found the duo's location. They prepare for battle, with Kosuke saying they have to win or else they will never see their partners again alongside the fact he would never see Saya Ryusenji again. This was just as Kosuke had wanted though, as he needed Yulin and Ryudamon for his plan and had actually set a trap for them. Dorumon begins to digivolve, with Kosuke declaring he would achieve his goal and find Saya's BlackAgumon so that he could save her. Unit 11: Digital Missing In Action Chapter 3-12

During the battle, Eiji and Loogamon are cornered by Satsuki and many members of the DigiPolice. They had little choice, stay behind the boulder and they'd be killed by the Cargodramon. Come out, and they'd be killed by the rest of the DigiPolice. Just as Satsuki was about to order the Commandramon to throw their DCD Bombs over the boulder, she is contacted by the Sealsdramon — who tell her they had located their target. She demands their location with it telling her they were right above her head. Satsuki has no time to react, as Airdramon — Mindlinked with Marvin Jackson — attacks the Cargodramon. Sons of Chaos: Seekers Chapter 4-1 Satsuki is surprised and questions the two of them as to why they would try to take on the DigiPolice on their own, whilst Eiji gets Marvin up to speed on what was happening and that Satsuki was a much bigger threat than when he had defeated her in the past. Needing to keep the rest of the DigiPolice away from Kosuke and Yulin, Loogamon digivolves to Loogarmon and joins Airdramon in battle. They weren't alone for much longer however, with Marvin sending the other leaders of the SoC and a large group of Crack Team Espimon into battle. A three way battle ensues, with the DigiPolice, SoC/Crack Team, and Gatekeeper Digimon all fighting each other. Sons of Chaos: Seekers Chapter 4-2

When Kosuke defeats Shuu Yulin of the DigiPolice, phase 2 of Operation Tartarus now complete — and Kosuke declares it was now time to start phase 3. He contacts Marvin and asks if he's still alive, to which he confirms he is. He then learns about how the rest of the battle was going — the DigiPolice had around a third of its members left, whilst the only remaining members of the Sons of Chaos were Kosuke, Marvin, Eiji, and a few of the other leaders. Though some members of the Crack Team and Wall Slum Digimon remained, there weren't enough of them for them to guarantee a win against both the DigiPolice and the Gatekeeper Digimon. Dorumon tells Marvin to bring Eiji to them, with Marvin asking if they were going to use "you know what". Upon hearing confirmation they would, Marvin activates a tool from his suit — with a loud roar being heard. Marvin and Airdramon deliver Eiji and Loogamon to Tartarus, then leave to return to the battlefield. The other SoC leaders with Kosuke log out, with all of them having things to do in the real World.

Tartarus thanks them for their work, with the only ones remaining being Kosuke, Eiji, and the unconscious Ryudamon. Eiji looks on, and sees the DigiPolice retreating. He sees Ryudamon and asks if it was alive, to which Kosuke confirms it is. He asks what they need to do next, with Kosuke stating the next step was to crack into the gateway. He states they need to use the interfaces of the three Prototype Digimon, and that the fact they were so old meant the Digital World hadn't accounted for them which would make their hacking easier. He tells him of how he needs Vaccine, Data, and Virus Prototype Digimon and that all three of them were now present. Eiji asks what he and Loogamon needed to do, but he tells them they don't need to to anything — to their disappointment. The only thing that was needed was their presence, and they could just watch as Kosuke did the hacking. This has Eiji realize that's why Ryudamon was restrained, it didn't need to be awake or even do anything — it simply just had to be there.

Loogamon, Dorumon, and an unconscious Ryudamon form a circle around a Hololized Tartarus — with Eiji complaining and saying if they had told him about all this from the start, he would've helped. Kosuke tells him that that wouldn't have worked, since they needed all three Prototypes to be able to digivolve to Ultimate, and he had only recently achieved that stage. Kosuke begins the hacking once Marvin returns, and, as Loogamon and Dorumon would be unable to fight during the process — Marvin and the other SoC members with Marvin were the only defence they had. Marvin hadn't returned to Kosuke alone, he and the SoC members he brought with him brought a Chaosdramon. Within seconds of arriving, it attacks the nearby Gatekeeper Digimon — taking them out with ease. Eiji wonders who was Mindlinking with it, but Marvin tells him no one was as it was too volatile and instead — he himself was controlling it with a bot. With no more enemies at the current point, he has Chaosdramon go on standby, but warns Kosuke that "you know who" would show up soon. With no enemies currently in sight, Kosuke begins hacking. Sons of Chaos: Seekers Chapter 4-4

As Kosuke continues hacking into the system, the Sons of Chaos are attacked by Gatekeeper Digimon. Chaosdramon and the SoC hackers Marvin brought with him are able to deal with them however, with Kosuke's hacking at 33% — which was 3% higher than when he had tried it in the past with only Dorumon.

Gatekeeper Digimon continue to arrive, but the SoC deal with them every time. As more and more fights happen, Kosuke hacks even more, now at 66%. Loogamon senses something, and tells the others that "it's coming". As Eiji worries about Loogamon's warning, Dorumon tells them there's nothing they can do about it, with the situation becoming worse as their SoC allies needed to log out due to their Mindlink times running out. This would leave Marvin as the last line of defence. Before they can log out, they are attacked by a Mekanorimon. Eiji was confused, since he thought the DigiPolice had retreated, and quickly learns that it was being piloted by a Mindlinked Satsuki/Numemon. The Mekanorimon collapses, being heavily damaged, but had still been able to do this last attack. Numemon gets out of the now fallen Digimon, with Marvin asking why she was here. She tells him she was here to recuse Yulin, with Marvin laughing as she only had a Numemon with her. This wasn't the case though, and she pulls out a Digimon Dock and tells the unconscious Yulin/Ryudamon that she had tendered her resignation as she had broken the rules of the DigiPolice by stealing their secret Digimon. She activates it, unleashing a Brigadramon.

Brigadramon aims its attacks at Eiji, Satsuki still wanting to kill him, but Marvin has Chaosdramon shield him. This was enough to pin Chaosdramon down, and with only Airdramon left — Numemon/Satsuki charge in to try and free Ryudamon. Eiji and Marvin are shocked to learn the DigiPolice had a Mega level Digimon the entire time, with Satsuki faking annoyance that Chaosdramon's Red Digizoid was able to withstand its attacks. With Brigadramon in range, Chaodramon grabs its arms but Satsuki reveals she wanted this to happen and had tricked him since it had missile launchers in its claws and as such would now be able to fire all of them at Chaosdramon at point blank range. Before it can do so, Eiji yells at them to stop fighting as "it" was here. Omegamon of the Royal Knights had arrived.

Omegamon attacks Kosuke, but Marvin is able to have Chaosdramon block the attack. As it falls to the powerful Royal Knight's attack, it is able to launch one final attack itself but Omegamon avoids it. Satsuki has Brigadramon attack Omegamon, though its attacks do little to it. Though she had no desire to help the SoC, she continues to have Brigadramon attack the Royal Knight as she didn't want Omegamon to kill Ryudamon/Yulin alongside the others. Brigadramon overheats, with it now unable to continue fighting. Omegamon comes out of the smoke unharmed, with there now being nothing to stop it killing Kosuke. The hacking was at 97%, and as Omegamon charged at Kosuke the mission seemed like it was going to fail. Kosuke however, reveals he had a trump card — and pulls out two Digimon Docks. He summons two Mega level Digimon and has them block Omegamon's attacks. With the hacking now at 99%, the gateway scans the three Prototype Digimon with its analysis bringing up holograms of their Ultimate forms. This confirmed they met the requirements, with the gateway giving Kosuke the key. The hacking was complete. Omegamon kills Kosuke's Mega Digimon but it is unable to reach the group in time as upon Kosuke activating the key — he, Eiji, and the Prototype Digimon vanish. Sons of Chaos: Seekers Chapter 4-5

Figuring this meant Kosuke had completed the hack, Marvin celebrates whilst Satsuki worryingly questions where Yulin and Ryudamon were. Omegamon, looking at its Transcendent Sword for blood — sighs upon seeing it had failed to stop Kosuke. The duo worry about the fact Omegamon was still there, since neither Chaosdramon nor Brigadramon were able to battle. They didn't have to worry for much longer however, as Omegamon ignored them and leapt into the gateway to follow Kosuke and the others. This signified the end of the battle, with the Crack Team Hackers/Digimon leaving alongside the remaining Wall Slum Digimon. Marvin thanks Satsuki for helping, though she instead demands to know where Yulin was. He tries to comfort her by telling her he lost friends during the battle, though Satsuki instead becomes further enraged at his comparing Hackers to Yulin. He returns Chaosdramon and the corpses of Kosuke's two Mega level partner Digimon to their Digimon Docks, and leaves Satsuki on her own — though not before telling her that if she contacts him in the future he would be more than happy to fix the Mekanorimon for her.
