X arrives and knows that Mega Man Shadow has hijacked his Brother's body. He tells the Twins about Mega Man Shadow's intentions to destroy the Universe. Rock/Mega Man Shadow admits to this and that he needed a strong body to do it - Rock's.
He then reveals that he's been manipulating Guile Sairupahn and the those "Retarded" Twins the entire time, for the sake of the World's destruction. He also reveals his hatred for the Light Family since they foiled him a few times, and that's why he killed Leviathan, Ciel, and Zero.
