I don't own DB or DC
Goku appeared in the center of the roaring arena holding his stomach in pain, "Ugh, I hate other teleportation," he lowered himself to the ground slowly as his face was projected onto the jumbo screens with 'Winner' flashing on it; he spent only seconds waving to them before heading to his cubicle.
Bruce scoffed, "Goku didn't even have to transform to beat him; maybe these other fighters aren't all they're cracked up to be," they all turned their attention to Goku as he entered the room with a grin plastered across his face.
"I got lucky that my opponent was so weak; it's hard to beilve that even I once considered that Vegito as the most powerful fighter in the Universe, things sure have changed," He walked up to the glass as Diana stood next to him, they observed Vegito as he entered his cubicle.
Bulma and Chi-Chi stood up quickly, coming to either side of Vegito and caressing his shoulder, "Damn hun, I can't believe you lost in the first round," uttered Bulma as she folded her arms.
"It's because of all those damn God's! They make the tournament unfair!" Shouted Chi-Chi, "They should be disqualified."
Vegito sighed, "Nah, it's not their fault that they're stronger than me, but now that I know ordinary Saiyan's can achieve God Ki… I'm gonna do it too!"
Vegito turned towards the door and pumped his fist in the air, "I'm sure I'll be a God in a hundred years, I'll kick total ass in the next tourney!" He sprinted to the door and pressed an obvious circular red button on the side labeled, 'RETURN' and with a flash of light all three of them were teleported from their cubicle.
The Red Son witnessed this and looked over towards his door, locking his gaze on the identical red button; he looked over at his wife and mumbled something in Russian, she responded in the same manner. He stood up and held her hand, pressing the button flashing away in an instant.
"Alright! It's time for Round 3!" The unseen announcer shouted through the PA system as the jumbo screens displayed two empty boxes once again, "Let's see who our fighters will be!" the box scrolled rapidly through each Universe number excluding the four that already participated and finally landing on, "Universe 2 and Universe 3 fighters prepare for battle!" the crowd screamed and cheered for the fighters as they stood up.
In the Universe 2 cubicle, a tall Caucasian man dressed in an indistinguishable red-suit stood from his seat; his silver helmet with golden wings on either side gleamed in the light from the arena, his entire body was blurry with small streaks of electricity constantly zipping across his suit. It was as if he was constantly moving, constantly vibrating slightly and creating kinetic energy.
He turned towards the glass where he could look out to see other fighters but, his facial expression was also indistinguishable but, he didn't look too interested.
In the Universe 3 Cubicle there was an even bigger mystery standing from his seat; he looked identical to Goku, in fact he was Goku but, in his time-line Beerus never had a dream of a Super Saiyan God and never traveled to Earth. Instead he sought power from the Super Saiyan 4 transformations, he fought many battles including a new and improved Red Ribbon Army android, an artificial life-form that could take over bodies, and the collected negative energy from the Earth Dragonball's collected and manifested into Evil Dragons. His Gi was bright blue with a lime green undershirt and brown belt with the kanji for 'Kai' displayed on the buckle; he sported white sweatbands with blue trim and green boots with black trim.
This Goku turned towards his two companions, one was recognized as Pikkon from the After Life and the other was tall dragon-like creature with gleaming golden skin and golden wings sprouting from his back, "Wish me luck, guys!"
Pikkon held his hand out for Goku to shake and as he did he chuckled towards his other companion, "I'm sure my training you and Nuova Shenron in the Kai realm has prepared me for anything this guy can throw!"
Nuova smiled and nodded his head, "Just try not to die…"
Goku laughed as a bright flash of light both cubicles at the same time whisking them away at instantaneous speeds.
…
Flash felt his molecules being reassembled by the teleporter and found the sensation uncomfortable and nauseating but, his insanely fast healing factor kicked the nausea to the curb mere nanoseconds after first feeling it. He stepped out into the forestry area he was dropped on, it looks like if a contestant destroys a planet, they simply drop the next fighters at a different planet in the area. The trees were thousands of feet tall and the branches were thicker than most houses, spite this, there was still decent space between each tree making it easier for him to run.
Dashing off into the forest, he zipped across every inch of the forest in a microsecond searching for his opponent until he stopped on a dime effortlessly, from a hundred times light speed to 0MPH instantly with expert precision facing a massive ocean he looked out, narrowing his eyes and looking at the horizon. An object was incoming fast, and that was strange because reality around him is normally frozen completely, even the Superman of his Universe barely moves at a crawl in the Flash's eyes. This object was obviously Goku as shot across the ocean creating a massive wave following due to his raw speed. He came to a stop above the Flash looking down, "Hey there!" Goku shouted.
Flash tilted his head in confusion but neglected to answer, instead, he began running in a circle at insane speeds. After only a second or two of spinning he unleashed a bolt of lightning that flew into the sky, barely missing Goku as he flew to the side in shock, "That was no ordinary lightning bolt… faster too," Goku looked back down towards the Flash but blinked for a moment when he saw no one. He immediately reached out with Ki Sense searching for his opponent but, was interrupted by a bolt of lightning striking him in the back with enough raw electric energy to turn planets to ashes. He was pushed back with a significant hole burnt through the back of his blue and green Gi, "Ah! Damn it!" He lashed out sending an orb Ki into the water, looking around as it detonated behind him in an explosion of water.
Another bolt flew past him only narrowing missing him this time, Ki sense took too long, he would need to go on the offensive. Goku charged up his clear aura, flexing his muscles and powering up his Ki. He closed his eyes, focusing on his surroundings and listening to the natural energy all living things possess; quickly he dodged another lightning bolt, this time he focused on the source and followed it placing two fingers to his forehead in the blink of an eye.
He appeared right behind Flash as he stopped suddenly noticing that Goku had found him, he still said nothing, "You don't talk much, do ya?"
Without so much as a flinch, Flash vanished once again, socking Goku in the jaw and sending him through the forest trees causing a massive explosion of dirt and trees.
…
Diana and Goku blinked at the holographic screen in front of them as they watched Flash take Goku down with a single hit, "Either that Flash also got super strength or that's one weak Goku…" The Saiyan muttered as he sat down on the couch facing the holographic screen and propped his cheek up in his fist.
Clark rolled his eyes, "The faster an object moves, the more mass it gains; if that Flash can accurately vibrate his fist beyond light speed he could hit with incredible force," he turned to Bruce who smiled.
"Just like the Infinite Mass Punch," he added.
…
Goku rubbed his face and pushed a chunk of rock off himself casually while standing up, "Jeez, looks like I'll have to take this seriously!" He tightened his fists and shouted to the heavens as a golden glow engulfed his body, his hair sprung up in blonde locks and his eyes swirled from onyx black to teal green. This was no ordinary Super Saiyan though, his normally sized aura strengthened and shook the planet beneath them. Surrounding moons and planets vibrated from the raw energy surging outwards around him; he was more powerful than any normal Super Saiyan had ever been.
Flash came to a sudden stop, peering out towards his opponent whose aura had just completely cleared the surrounding forest of all obstructions. This made room for him to run but, it gave him less cover to run through and confuse his enemy, he'd have to work a different angle. He zipped off in the opposite direction, moving across the planet completely coming from the other side of the horizon he struck the Super Saiyan with insane speed and strength, plowing him through the continent and toppling mountains on him.
As Goku emerged, Flash zoomed in and circled Goku thousands of times in attoseconds, easily moving billions of times faster than light around the Saiyan creating a massive vortex of winds unlike anything ever experienced on Earth. The vortex sucked all the oxygen from the inside of the funnel slowly suffocating the Saiyan inside; Goku grabbed at his neck slightly as he choked.
"E-Eno-ough!" He flexed his muscles once more, powering up his Ki in an explosion of golden light that knocked Flash off his feet and into the ground, tumbling to a halt and looking back up at his opponent. Goku's hair had spiked further and electrical surges sparked all throughout his golden aura, "You can't beat me that easily!"
The Flash covered his eyes as the explosion of light ravaged the planet and sent shockwaves across space destroying nearby planets completely. Flash's eyes widened underneath the shade of his helmet, he was impressed by the power of his opponent but, he wasn't worried.
…
Goku whistled and rocked back and forth in his seat, "This me is strong! Even I can't generate that type of power in just Super Saiyan 2!"
Clark chuckled, "Well then you should be excited, if he wins, you'll have to fight him," Diana and Bruce smiled as Goku's eyes widened like an anxious child's.
"And if that Flash beats him, that means he's even stronger than him!" Goku nearly screamed with excitement as the fight continued on screen.
Bruce laughed whole heartedly, "Did you really expect this Flash to be weak? If he absorbed the entire speed force he should way faster than you," Goku's expression became blank and confused.
"Say… what now?"
Diana grabed hold of Goku's hands and smiled, "The speed-force is an entire dimension of living energy that powers all speedsters but, if he absorbed the entire dimension into himself, he should have a Universe's worth of raw speed living inside of him," she looked back towards the screen as Flash dodged another heated blast, "It's probably why he doesn't speak much too."
…
Goku lifted his hand and opened his palm towards Flash who only narrowed his eyes preparing to sprint away and avoid the blast. From his palm a beam of white-hot Ki energy exploded outwards annihilating hundreds of miles of landscape resembling a nuclear blast but a narrowed into a beam and trillions of times more powerful. Flash materialized behind Goku as the Saiyan spun around, meeting one of the speedster's punches with a fist of his own creating a shockwave that blasted them both apart in opposite directions.
Goku dug his feet into the ground stopping his momentum and keeping his eyes trained on Flash whom disappeared the instant he stopped rolling across the ground. Goku followed the speedster's movements as he zipped through the smoking rubble at extreme velocities. Goku wound up his arm and flung an orb of Ki into the distance missing its target and exploding in a dome of heat and Ki; Goku didn't allow the red hot explosion in the background take away from his focus on his opponent dashing about the battlefield.
Goku prided this form on its speed but, he still couldn't keep track of Flash as he ran around dodging each attack; Goku searched for the speedster's energy and locked onto it, teleporting away and landing feet from him. The speedster was slightly surprised but simply changed direction instantly dodging an orb of Ki that hit the ground point blank and destroyed the ground Flash was running on sending him into the air. Instead of hitting the ground though, Flash super speed hopped from one chunk of rubble to the next until he noticed Goku still keeping up with him. He narrowed his eyes once more, charging a spark of speed-force energy to crackle through his eyes like electricity; his entire body vibrated as he vanished from Goku's sight once again. Normally the speed he was using would be enough to take down any villain in his Universe but, on the rare occasion when he needs to, he can still access far more speed force energy; he had only been using a fraction of his speed up until now so the drastic change in speed threw the Saiyan off guard.
"Huh? He's gone completely this time!" Goku turned his head looking around for his opponent whom was moving so fast that he couldn't even properly detect his energy, "Where did you-" Goku was interrupted by something with the force of a hundred supernova explosions slammed into his back, pushing him face first into the ground digging a trench with his head for dozens of feet. His aura dispersed as he pulled himself from the ground, brushing rocks and such out of his golden spikey hair, he looked around again, trying to gain his second wind, "Maybe I shouldn't have been going easy on him; I have 5 transformations and I've only used 2, as much as I'd love to keep the others a surprise I don't think this guy will go down at level 2…"
Flash was not seen or heard but with equal force to his last strike he socked Goku across the face sending him across the burning rubble and into the ground once again. He dug his fingers into the ground trying to ignore the pain of each blow, "Yep, definitely need more than level 2!" He teleported away at the last possible second as a massive explosion filled the area, destroying miles of concrete and shattering the continent as a whole. The ground beneath them split into pieces but, it didn't seem to hinder Flash's movement even slightly. Goku appeared above the massive explosion, which was triggered by Flash missing Goku and punching the ground by accident, observing the plume of smoke the blocked out the sun above them. The shade engulfed their vision making it even harder to spot his opponent, "The light of my transformation will make me a huge target but, I should be strong enough to counter at that point; reward outweighs risk, I'm doin' it!" He powered up his Super Saiyan 2 aura as the sparking electricity surged around him and exploded forth causing a flash of golden light to encompass the entire planet, ridding the atmosphere of the smoke and ash from the previous explosion. His eyebrows vanished and his hair grew longer down to his waist; Flash stopped below him, looking up at the impressive transformation, "I know what you're thinking!" He shouted.
Flash looked up with a static expression that had been unchanging through-out the fight, staying silent and giving no response, "The other fighter used a transformation like this one in the last match against the other version of me but, I'm way stronger than that fusion guy was!"
Flash didn't give any sort of response and only vanished into the battlefield only, this time he didn't go alone. Goku followed him on foot, moving at insane speeds spite the extra mass of his expanded muscles and lengthened hair, he sped up running next to Flash as they turned their heads to face one another, "Not used to anyone running this fast, huh?"
Flash scoffed and came skidding to a halt and as he did so he noticed his surroundings coming in to full view; an abandoned city surrounded them with tall oddly shaped buildings and towers, abandoned alien vehicles rusting on the side of the roads. Mold and moss grew up the sides of the buildings and structures around them clearly displaying the passage of time, hundreds of years at least.
The Flash had planted his feet into the ground allowed all of his speed-force energy to course through his veins signified by a spark of yellow lightning flashing in his eyes; Goku cracked his neck, flashing his bright sparking golden aura like a champion chip medal, his cocky grin never faded as a single pebble from across the city fell victim to gravity and toppled along the side of a building. That single tiny rock alerted them both to rush the other at the same time resulting in an inevitable collision that toppled buildings around them for miles. Buildings shattered like glass and glass was turned into pure dust by the reverberations of each of their clashes; Flash came in for right-hook with his fist covered in sparking speed-force just as Goku dipped his head back and used instant transmission to appear behind the speedster. Wallace spun around in time to block Goku's right-straight with his left forearm, countering by ducking under the Saiyan's reach and sweeping his feet out from under him. Goku landed on his right palm, using the ground to spin slightly and kick The Flash across the face sending back against the ground tumbling until he finally managed to stop on his hands and knees.
Flash looked up and allowed the sparks to run through his eyes once again, speeding off and grabbing Goku by the collar quickly and using his own momentum to launch the Saiyan into a building as said building collapsed on top of him. An explosion of golden Ki vaporized the building rubble and everything else for a hundred miles, other than Flash whom avoided the blast as Super Saiyan 3 Goku floated up from the smoke, "We could do this forever; we're completely equal!"
Flash said nothing, running around the concrete ground so quickly his immediate surroundings were completely blurred until he finally stopped. He had carved a ramp into the ground with his raw speed and lined up only a few feet in front of it, "Did you seriously build yourself a ramp?" Goku asked with the utmost seriousness.
Flash didn't even glance up at him before zipping off towards the ramp, running up and flying through the air at thousands of miles per hour, he vibrated his fist as he did so and slammed it into Goku's jaw with a powerful uppercut that split the clouds for thousands of miles in a single direction. Flash freefell back down towards the ramp, landing perfectly and coming to a perfect stop; Goku floated back for a moment holding his chin and staring at his own blood spilling from his lip, "Hell. No." Goku cupped his hands by his side and focused hard on his inner Ki, pulling it out and condensing it into a single glowing teal orb in between his palms.
"Ka Me Ha Me," Goku vanished from sight, appearing below The Flash from behind in an instant and sparing not a single nanosecond before unleashing the beam of energy onto the speedster before he could register the attack let alone avoid it, "Ha!" The beam consumed Flash and pushed past him expanding into space and dissipating into the void. When Goku was finished, he wiped his hands and whistled to himself for a moment, as the speedster's boots were still left in the midst of his ashes.
His aura and hair returned to normal as the cameras floated in front of him, "Ladies and Gentleman the winner of this match is Universe 3's Son Goku!"
The teleporter activated sending this Goku into the center of the ring as did the other winners, he held his hands up and allowed the stadium of fans to cheer his name as he floated back towards the ground, "Who's the champion?"
"Goku!"
"Goku!"
His face was on the jumbo-screen but, unlike his humble counterpart, he smiled and held a peace sign out, shouting and chanting along with the crowd.
"Powerful but, kind of a show-boat isn't he?" Hal muttered as he sipped on a soda that was left in there for them, they all stared at him for a moment as he shrugged his shoulders, "What? I didn't say I don't show-boat, I'm just not used to seeing Goku do it."
Bruce cleared his throat and spoke up, "Clearly he's had just as much time as you had to gain the skill you have but, if he's still using the Super Saiyan forms, how strong could he be?"
Goku rubbed his chin in thought, "This is different, his normal Super Saiyan form was easily stronger than even Vegito's Level 3 form," He narrowed his eyes at the other Goku as he approached his cubicle with a grin, "And I'm sensing that he's holding something back still…"
Clark scoffed, "Like that Super Saiyan 4 you were talking about?"
"No, like something beyond that… this guy had 100 years to train and no access to God Ki; who knows what he could have unlocked?" Goku smiled and breathed heavier, placing his face against the glass, "I wanna fight em."
Diana chuckled grabbing Goku's shoulder, "In time, in time."
"The winner for Round 3 has been decided! Let's move right on to Round 4!" The jumbo-screens once again displayed empty boxes that scrolled through numbers on the list, the numbers slowed to a stop displaying '1 & 10'.
"Will the fighters for Universe 1 and 10 please prepare for battle!"
In the Universe 1 Cubicle, Goku stood from his seat, "Try not to kill her, she doesn't seem all that strong," the tall man sitting down beside him advised, he used his staff to stand up spite not needing it and placed a hand on his shoulder, "You're here to win, not destroy remember?"
He scoffed, "I remember Whis, don't worry," This version of Goku was dressed in Egyptian Pharaoh clothing and jewelry looking almost identical to Beerus' outfit. The white of his eyes was completely black and his pupils were crimson red instead of onyx black, "I'll go as easy as I possibly can although I hope I don't destroy the Universe by accident."
"Zeno certainly wouldn't be happy if you destroyed his tournament grounds, I'd advise against that," Whis added as Goku stepped into the middle of the room.
"It'll be fine…"
…
Goku and Wonder Woman were teleported to a completely different location this time; he looked out over the waterfall he had been placed on, hundreds of feet above ground with a massive flow of water colliding with a never ending ocean of water. It seemed like the waterfall he was standing on was the only solid ground for hundreds of miles but, this would make finding his opponent simple as there was nowhere for her to hide.
Goku floated off the rock, looking around and throughout the air around him, searching for his airborne opponent but finding virtually nothing for several long minutes. "Screw it," He raised his hand and extended his pointer-finger forming a purple orb of Ki at the end of his fingernail and aiming it at the ground, "I'll destroy the planet and then she'll have to come out or if she's not strong enough to survive it she'll die and I'll win!"
Just as he was done monologue to himself, a massive hand and forearm made of pure water rose up from the ocean below, hundreds of times more massive than the water-fall behind him she towered over him standing on the palm of her water-construct.
"Okay then," Goku smiled dispersing his energy, "I might actually be interested now," he flew forwards and towards his opponent whose eyes flashed bright blue, manipulating the water beneath into a solid fist that collided with the God and pushed him into the waterfall completely destroying it. Goku swam through the water with ease, normally he would need to come up for air but, he was a God of Destruction now so, he didn't need sustenance of any kind spite his appetite for rare foods.
His opponent pencil dived into the water after him, looking around for a moment she saw no one but, as she spun around, her blade sliced through the water and the massive Ki blast that approached her. The blast was cleaved in two as both halves detonated behind her in a heated explosion that vaporized some of the water around them; they met eyes for a brief second as the water came crashing back onto them hindering their sight of one another.
She came from behind and brought her blade down on top of him but, she sliced only at water as her opponent vanished and kicked her in the back launching her forwards and deeper into the water. She used her Atlantean magic to manipulate the water around her, freezing Goku in a block of ice and speed forwards for an attack. The ice cracked almost immediately as his Godly purple aura exploded around him and destroyed his confinement; she swung her blade at him once more but, this time he swung his forward attempting to shatter the blade but instead connected with it equally. The shockwave created a massive pocket of air around them, exploding forth with so much power that it literally split the ocean around them in a single sliced line.
Goku pushed his knuckle against her now slightly cracked sword, "Impressive but, you're fighting no mere mortal, young lady, you're fighting a God," his attention was caught by the slight stinging of pain coming from his knuckle, he couldn't explain it until a small trickle of blood slipped down his hand and wrist.
She smiled at this and pushed him back slightly, "I'm a Goddess too, simpleton," she pulled her blade back and attempted to cut him again but he dipped his head back with a smile, observing her once more.
"A Goddess you say? Interesting…"
