Lan finds a warehouse full of DarkChips, and he starts to think he's the best NetSaver on Earth. He's sure that it'll be easy for him to find the factory that's making the DarkChips. Meanwhile, Chaud has plans of his own to find the factory: he follows Ms. Yuri. At the warehouse, Lan stumbles upon the factory and also upon DesertMan, who's so powerful that Lan and MegaMan can't defeat him. Just when it seems that it's curtains for them, CrossFusion ProtoMan shows up and helps to save the day.
