As the group tries to figure out what's wrong with him, Ken confesses that he used to be a Digimon Emperor, a cruel dictator who used his power to enslave and control other Digimon. He reveals that he was able to do this because he stumbled upon an unknown power that gave him the ability to control the digital world.
