Masaru Katsuji, a boy in Tagiru's class, seems to be down lately since his family's Ramen restaurant has been getting less customers since the opening of a nearby popular Ramen restaurant opposite them. Tagiru says he will help "Katsuji" to reclaim its popularity, and he and Yū challenge each other to come up with a solution. Later that night, while trying to find a way to improve his ramen, Mr Katsuji gets sucked absorbed into DigiQuartz by the Digimon duo of Ogremon and Fugamon. Though they own a Ramen Restaurant of their own in DigiQuartz with their special hand-pounded noodles, the two oni Digimon offer to give some to Katsuji in return for his delicious soup so both restaurants can flourish. Feeling something is off when the sudden number of customers at Katsuji, Xros Heart learns of Katsuji's deal with Ogremon and Fugamon.
