The WWW ("World Three") is an evil organization that makes reoccurring appearances throughout the Mega Man Battle Network series, and they are formed and led by Lord Wily to take over the real world and cyberworld. They are constantly met with defiance from Lan Hikari and MegaMan. Initially trying to conquer the internet by constructing the Life Virus, Wily was forced to disband WWW's members and go into hiding after Lan and MegaMan foiled his plans. A former WWW member, the Professor, would resurrect the Life Virus as Life Virus R, while his servants spread the Zero Virus.
