One day, while the Rock Force was busy training, a mysterious energy surge occurred at a nearby hydroelectric facility, corrupting many of the robots working there. Mega Man grew to call Justice Man brother and the two became inseparable over the course of the Rock Force's development. This robot, despite being its own entity, matched Mega Man physically in every way and was programmed with a similar sense of justice. Light created an assistant for Mega Man: Justice Man. To aid with Mega Man's training of his new team, Dr.
Wily, which include Cut Man, Nitro Man, Tornado Man, Dive Man, Elec Man, Knight Man, Bomb Man and Fire Man. The members of the Rock Force consist of Robot Masters not initially created or modified by Dr. However, Mega Man, now wary of true everlasting piece, recruited eight willing Robot Masters and began training them if evil should dare arise, his team, the Rock Force, would be there to stop it. Wily had since vanished, permitting the world to once again focus on other matters: science, progress, and the ever growing relationship between humans and robots. It is the year 20XX and Earth had finally achieved an extended period of peace. (The game most likely takes place after Mega Man 10 due to Nitro Man's presence) Spoiler warning: Details of plots, secrets and/or endings may follow.
