Chapter 4

Author's Note: Sorry people, for I have not written in quite a while, but my updates are gonna get a bit late from now on. Collage life is not that easy and with that's going on, finding time to write stories is even more difficult. Every two weeks from now onwards, I will post a new chapter. That is all for important stuff. Please keep reading and posting reviews and spread the word around to read my story. Also, it seems I forgot to explain Kolard's instant movement. It's quite similar to Goku's instant transmission, only Kolard doesn't need to detect energy to be in that place. He can instantly teleport to a place as long as he is familiar with it or if the place is in his sight. He learnt this technique from his supreme kai, who will be introduced in this chapter. Now, for the chapter!

Korn relayed the message from Grand Priest, "All the gods of destruction, along with their angels and supreme kais, are to be ready for transportation in one minute." Kolard contemplated the message and then nodded, "Alright, let me just get the supreme kai. Knowing him, he would just be buried in a book." He vanished a moment later and returned in less than 10 seconds. With him was an average heighted person of pale skin and features of a supreme kai. He had sharp young features and had an annoyed look on his face. "You know, a bit of warning would be appreciated in the future", he said in his usual blank tone, but both Kolard and Korn could sense his irritation. Deira was a very serious supreme kai, taking his duties very seriously. As soon as Liquiir gave up his position as a destroyer and transferred his life force as a destroyer, his supreme kai did the same with Deira. The life link between them formed and therefore Deira became Kolard's supreme kai.

Kolard and Deira had a very unusual relationship. Kolard was a bit easy going, but Deira was his exact opposite and as such, serious at all times. They had regular meetings which included sparring sessions, discussions on what planets to destroy and what to create (Kolard fell asleep every time) and one upping the other in terms of number of techniques. But above all, Kolard considered Deira his best friend. Deira always scoffed at that notion, but never denied it, something Kolard always picked up. Kolard would have snarked back if not for the seriousness of the present, "No time for that. The Grand Priest has called all the angels, destroyers and creators of all universes for an urgent meeting." Deira, like Kolard, shrugged and waited for the Grand Priest to transport them. He had nothing to be afraid of like Kolard. A few seconds later, they were transported to the omni palace by the Grand Priest. They all appeared in a kneeled position along with all other deities. Kolard took a glance around and had to fight to control what would have been a spectacular spit take on seeing double Zenos. Deira himself wasn't faring any better, doing everything to keep his composure maintained.

Goku was gaping at the display of power from the Grand Priest. He gasped out, "In -incredible! So these are all the gods from other universes?!". His eyes roamed around the room, measuring each and everyone. He could tell that they were very strong, easily stronger than him by sensing their power level. However, when he saw Kolard, his eyes bugged out so much that they threatened to pop out and his jaw was hanging loose. 'A-a-a saiyan as a d-d-destroyer?!', he thought to himself with confusion and excitement. Confusion because he didn't know there were saiyans in universes other than 6th and 7th. Excitement because unlike other destroyers, including Beerus, he couldn't feel Kolard's power level. 'Vegeta won't believe when I tell him that there is a saiyan stronger than all the destroyers', he thought with glee.

Kolard was also looking at Goku with wide eyes, 'A saiyan is responsible for this meeting?!'. He studied Goku, 'A mortal standing with the gods?!'. He then sensed something else, which caused him to narrow his eyes even further, 'Why does he have god ki flowing through him? Unless', he smirked, 'This guy is a super saiyan god. He has to be!'. The Grand Priest started speaking, "Thank you everyone, for being present here on such short notice. I've called you here to announce that Zen-oh-sama wants to hold a fighting tournament in which warriors from all the universes will participate. This tournament is happening due to the friendship between Zen-oh-sama and Son Goku, mortal from universe 7." He glanced at the nervous gods and continued, "But his counterpart is unaware of such an event. So, we will be having an exhibition match…between the warriors of universe 7 and universe 9!". He then turned towards the mentioned universes, "You have one hour to gather three warriors from your universe. The angels will take you back now." The angels gathered everyone from their respective universes and left. Kolard was thinking hard, 'That saiyan, is he the saiyan from the legends? Or is he just a normal saiyan who achieved this power recently?'. He spoke to Korn, "Korn, I want you to do something for me." Korn looked at Kolard and smiled, "Is it related to the saiyan from universe 7, my lord?". Kolard nodded, "Yes. I want you to find out everything you can about that saiyan and tell it to me."

Korn looked conflicted, "My lord, I cannot just give you information about beings from other universes. There are separate universes for a reason." But this did not hinder Kolard, "Come on Korn, that mortal was obviously a saiyan, can't you give me information about my heritage?". He gave Korn a pleading look. Korn looked conflicted, but then sighed, "Very well. I will talk to my younger brother about this. This also might be an opportunity for you to find out how to control super saiyan 5&6." That earned a quizzical look from Kolard, "But I can already control it, can't I?". Korn shook his head, "No, because I have noticed that whenever we are sparring with you in super saiyan 5, your energy is stable, but as you start using continuous energy attacks, you get dangerously close to making an involuntary transformation into super saiyan 6. That is when I have always ended our sparring." Kolard looked exceedingly troubled at his explanation. He knew that super saiyan 5 and 6 were extremely dangerous transformations, but not to an extent that his own body couldn't handle that power. 'How come I never noticed that my own power was too much to handle for my body?', he thought to himself. 'It might be because I never fully used the power of those transformations. This has to be solved as soon as possible.' He thought about it and said, "Korn, I think it's time to visit Beerus."

Goku was absolutely giddy as he used instant transmission from the supreme kai's planet to Earth. He arrived at Capsule Co. and looked around for his friends and family. Gohan was meditating with piccolo on the lawn, goten and trunks were goofing around, bulma was sipping tea with Chichi and Videl, who had Pan in her lap. He ran up to Bulma, "Hey Bulma, can you call everyone here really quick?". Bulma was startled for a moment, but obliged. Soon, all the Z-fighters were gathered around him. Vegeta looked impatient and asked, "Why have you called us here Kakarot?". Goku kept grinning and said, "You won't believe what I'm gonna tell you. I saw all the gods of destruction of all universes and among them, there was a destroyer who was a saiyan!". All jaws dropped onto the ground, but Vegeta roared with disbelief, "How is that possible? I thought saiyans were species belonging to only the 6th and 7th universes. How strong is that guy?!". Goku just grinned excitedly, "I don't know about your first question, but he is so strong that I couldn't even feel his energy!". Vegeta had a trail of sweat running from his brow. He and Goku had started to sense Beerus's energy, but now there was a destroyer whose energy couldn't be sensed by Kakarot? Goku continued, "I was gonna ask him to spar with me, but he had already left before I could get the chance. But for now, we need three warriors who can fight in an exhibition match."

Gohan was the first to volunteer. Goku picked Buu as the next warrior after him. He approached Vegeta next, but before he could open his mouth, Vegeta said, "I won't be competing in this exhibition match Kakarot." Everybody was surprised at that since Vegeta never refused a fight. Goku tried to convince him, "But Vegeta, so many strong warriors will be there!". Vegeta glared at him, "I have my own reasons, Kakarot. Now leave me alone!". Goku was a little bit sad, but as soon as Gohan volunteered to compete, he immediately brightened up, but asked him why he wanted to compete. "I have been training with Piccolo-san for a while now and I wanted to test as to where I have reached in pursuit of recovering my power." Goku smiled at him, proud of his son and confident of his power. He approached Whis, "Whis-san, three warriors are ready for the exhibition match." Beerus approached the three warriors and inspected them all. He had no problem with Goku, but was confused as to why Vegeta did not want to come. "He has his own reasons, that's what he told me, Beerus-sama." Beerus shrugged, as long as he competed in the tournament of power it was fine. He locked eyes with Gohan, who in spite of being nervous kept his gaze. Beerus then turned his gaze towards Buu and had to hold back a snarl. He turned to Goku, "Oi Goku! Are you sure this guy can compete, or even fight?! He fell asleep in the fight against Champa's universe. We can't take the risk!". Goku was unperturbed however, "Don't worry Beerus-sama, Buu is a very strong fighter. We can take Satan-san with us, he'll make sure that Buu doesn't fall asleep in the middle of a fight!". Beerus was still not sure, but decided to trust Goku. He turned to the supreme kai, "Let's go Shin." They vanished in a green light.

Kolard found the exhibition tournament very interesting. He was impressed with Majinn Buu's performance. He expected the creature of chaos to be strong, but not that strong as to completely shrug off the attacks of the universe 9 warrior. The second match was even more interesting. Looking at Gohan, he could tell that he was Goku's son due to their almost identical faces. He could sense an incredible source and potential of power within Gohan, but was a bit disappointed when the match ended in a draw with Gohan not going beyond super saiyan 2. Goku's match with Bergamo was good, but as Goku started to make Bergamo purposefully stronger, he was reminded why saiyans were so excited to fight strong opponents just for fun, and it annoyed him. The real surprise came when Goku transformed into super saiyan blue. Kolard knew that goku could go super saiyan god, but he never would have guessed that he had accessed the next step as well. He compared his power and found that he would be able to go toe to toe with him in super saiyan 2, which surprised him a little. Not many beings had ever made him go beyond super saiyan. He almost fell out of his chair when Goku added Kaio-ken times twenty on top of his super saiyan blue. 'That power….. it equals that of my full power of super saiyan 2 and a bit more', he thought with shock. He smiled, 'Amazing that such a technique exists that multiplies your power by such an extent.' Kolard was getting excited at the thought of Goku and him sparring. When Toppo challenged Goku to a fight, Kolard wanted to beat the shit out of Belmod for not restraining his apprentice. He also wanted to do the same to Toppo, as he wanted to fight Goku when he was at full power and Goku was not. Super saiyan blue with Kaio-ken times twenty took a lot of stamina away. When Belmod's supreme kai spoke up, Kolard sneaked a glance to Deira and found a vein twitching in his forehead, which didn't surprise him at all. The 11th universe supreme kai was known to be extremely smug, and that attitude of his made everyone around him want to beat it out of him. The tournament ended with Grand Priest saying, "the Tournament of Power will be held in 21 tiks from now." Before Goku could ask Whis whispered it to him, "He means one week goku." Kolard stood up along with his companions, "All right Deira, take us home." Deira was about to do just that when a voice called out, "Wait a minute please!". Surprised at the call, he turned around and saw Goku approaching him. He looked at Beerus behind Goku and saw an exasperated look on his face. He smirked a little, 'This might be interesting.'

Goku arrived in front of Kolard, who kept his smirk. They stood against each other and Kolard noticed that he was about 2 inches taller than Goku. He spoke up, "Do you need something, Son Goku?". Goku asked him, "You are a saiyan right, Lord Kolard?". Kolard simply responded, "I thought that was quite obvious." Goku then asked him with excitement, "Do you time to spar with me sometime?". Goku had his hands joined in front of him. Kolard asked him instead, "Why do you want to spar with me, Son Goku?". Goku turned his hands into fists, "You are strong, stronger than Lord Beerus. I just want to find out how much stronger." Kolard smiled, "I'm surprised that you can tell. But for now, I must go as I have matters to attend and you must recover and get stronger than ever. But I do have some business in Universe 7," at that Beerus and Whis perked up, "So I will be in Universe 7 this week. Maybe then we can have our spar", he finished with that suggestion. Goku jumped at the notion and said, "Thank you! I will be waiting then!". With that, he went away. Deira scoffed, "What a simplistic being!", but Kolard ignored him. He was now pumped for the upcoming spar. He couldn't wait.

Author's Note: I know it has been a long time since I updated, for which I am really sorry. College assignments along with semester exams almost busied my entire schedule. As for this chapter, I tried to keep the power levels of Kolard and Goku in a ratio. I said in the previous chapter that Quitela is one of the stronger gods, but what my mistake was making Beerus and Kolard equals at super saiyan. Beerus is way stronger than that, equaling my OC's super saiyan 3. He is exponentially stronger than all the destroyers in my story. Goku is stronger than Quitela in his with super saiyan blue kaioken. With that, I end this chapter. Keep the reviews coming!
