Previously on Dragon Ball: War Between Worlds

"WE'VE BEEN HERE SINCE THE BEGINNING," Goku says, "AND WE WILL BE HERE... FOR THE END!"

There'd be a massive cheer from the two armies. Akuma just smirks more, as he raises his hand. "Well... If you bring more allies, I guess it'd only be fair for me to bring MY OWN!"

A vortex forms in front of him, as a familiar figure forms in front of him, energy drawing into it. It'd have glowing white eyes, as it looks up. Akuma nods toward him. "Assist me during the battle, Oblivion..."

Oblivion flickers, as he'd be far stronger than he was before his death. His eyes flicker, as he looks down toward the warriors. "It is about time we meet again, Akuma..."

A bunch of multiverses pour in, adding even more into the uncountable army. Goku gets into his fighting stance, chills going down his back. "Everyone's here... Everybody..."

Goku places a hand on Vegeta's shoulder. "Let's finally take him down, and then... We can go back to Heaven in peace."

Ahton and Oblivion make eye contact, glaring at each other. They'd now know they'd be fighting each other.

Goku yells, powering up into Super Saiyan Three. "Alright, now for the next step, Vegeta... We will regain our power, and... perform fusion!"

Chapter Eighteen

Dead silence is between the two sides. The only sounds would be the auras of different warriors. Akuma and Oblivion nod toward each other, as they roar, charging forward.

The good side roars as well, launching forward. Goku runs forward alongside Vegeta in his Super Saiyan Three transformation. "Vegeta, I'm low on God Ki. Mind sparing me some?"

Vegeta nods, passing an orb of God Ki toward Goku. A firey aura flares up around him, as he enters Super Saiyan God. "Alright! Let's do this!"

Zateus enters Ultra Instinct Stage Three, lights flickering around him. "Let's split up and attack them from all four angles!"

Omesus powers up into Super Saiyan X, nodding. The four of them split up, flying across the armies. Naruto enters Six Paths Sage Mode, creating millions of shadow clones. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!"

Akuma raises his hands, summoning billions upon billions of Voidic Beings to take care of the ones weaker than him. He looks up at Arhenahin, chuckling.

Saitama yells, a red outline surrounding him. He holds nothing back, as he takes off toward some of the Voidic Beings, swinging a heavy punch.

There'd be an explosion in his path that destroys some of them, but the others reform. Explosions travel everywhere, all of it making the Tournament of Power look like a kitten fight.

Goku runs right next to Naruto and Sasuke, who follow behind him. "Ahton will fight Oblivion. We must focus on defeating Akuma!"

[Music: Danny Olson - Tide (Official Audio)] [Start at 1:43]

"Roger!" Naruto says. He enters Tailed Beast Kurama Mode, letting out a roar. He runs forward on his four legs, launching massive Tailed Beast Rasen-Shurikens at Akuma.

Goku yells, entering Super Saiyan Blue. He yells with full force, a red aura flaring up around him. "I haven't used this combination in ages..."

FLASHBACK - START

Goku would have been standing across from Hit, smirking. He yells, a bright light emitting from him. "KAIOKEN... TIMES TEN!"

Hit was shocked, as he raised his fists. However, Goku appeared in front of him instantaneously, slamming a punch into his face. "GUH!"

"No way!" Vegeta said, sweat going down the side of his face.

"He's so fast!" Piccolo said.

"TAKE THIS! YOU HAVE REALLY DONE IT!" Beerus roared, having thrown a massive Destruction Ball down, as it heads for Goku. Its gravity would have been causing the landscape around it to tear apart.

"Oh dear..." Whis sighed. "They are going too far with these battles..."

"We got this, Whis!" Goku yelled, as his Kaioken level had begun to rise. 20x...30x...40x...50x...60x...70x...

His Kaioken technique reached level one hundred, as a gigantic red pillar of light shot from him, having shattered the land completely.

Then something weird happened... Normally, the Kaioken acted like a layer to multiply the power, but its level seemed to reach so high, that its energy begun to mix with the God Ki and Super Saiyan Ki, having turned his Super Saiyan Blue Evolution form a red tint.

Goku roared, his hair having turned red. His aura had begun to go crazy, forming to be even bigger than before.

"WHAT THE?!" Vegeta yelled. "WHAT... WHAT KIND OF POWER..."

FLASHBACK - END

Goku yells again, entering Super Saiyan Blue Evolution. Red energy swirls around him, his aura, hair, and eyes beginning to turn a dark red tint. "HA... HAAAAA!"

"Could it be?!" Vegeta says. "He hasn't used that since..."

"KAIOKEN... TIMES ONE HUNDRED!" Goku roars, his aura beginning to flicker red and blue. A massive shockwave consumes the battlefield, as red electricity crackles around him like crazy. "HERE I COME!"

He takes off at full speed, his eyes flickering red. A glowing red dragon forms around him, surrounding him. He raises his fist outward. "DRAGON... FIST!"

The dragon takes off, plowing through hundreds of millions of the Voidic Beings. A crack goes across part of the platform, as massive chunks of it fly up into the air. Vegeta grunts, doing his best to block it. "Where did this power come from?! How come he's stronger than before?!"

"You two have Zenkai boosts," Piccolo says. "Don't you remember? You two had multiple Zenkai boosts during the battle, and they are massive. You have been bumped up to around... a Tier Four or Five in terms of power."

"Unbelievable," Gohan says. "They just keep getting stronger and stronger. It's almost if they have no limit to their power."

Arhenahin and Akuma levitate across from each other, staring at one another. They'd get into their fighting stances, preparing for round two.

"You're persistent," Akuma says, squinting at him. "You're only delaying the death of all of your... 'creations'..."

[Music: Tom Player - Creeping Doubt (Position Music - Epic Powerful Orchestral Action)] [Start at 1:14]

A bright aura surrounds Arhenahin, energy swirling around him. "Let's end this now, Akuma!"

The two take off toward one another, clashing a heavy punch. They begin to zoom around the air, trails following them. They clash punches back and forth, powerful strikes of white and black electricity slamming the ground.

Akuma launches electricity which lashes around Arhenahin, restraining him. He then shoots forward, going to decapitate Arhenahin with a slice of his blade. Arhenahin ducks, as he flips over, slamming Akuma with a kick.

Akuma is launched back, but he'd take less damage this time. He grunts, as he shoots forward at full speed, launching a pulse of wind that sends Arhenahin crashing onto the platform, causing many lives to be ended.

Akuma launches toward him, barraging him with endless punches. Arhenahin is launched back again, skidding. The two continue to clash blows, shockwaves shooting everywhere.

They shoot off, as their trails swirl around one another, them clashing and zooming around the air. Arhenahin launches a blast, which Akuma deflects, chuckling.

Akuma raises his hands, yelling. Massive chunks of the platform all close on Arhenahin, causing a massive explosion of debris.

Cracks go through the chunks, as there'd be a massive light explosion, sending Akuma flying through Omniverses. "GCKK!"

Arhenahin looks up at him, as for the first time in this battle, he'd be enraged. His white aura turns red, as he launches toward Akuma at a blinding speed, slamming him around.

Akuma coughs a lot of blood, as he manages to block some of the blows. "His power has increased!"

Arhenahin presses a hand against his chest, as he creates Holy Fire, which burns a hole into Akuma's chest painfully. "GRRAHHHH!"

Akuma swipes his hand, sending Arhenahin flying with a chop. He pants heavily, the hole in him starting to regenerate. "His powers made it harder to absorb it, but... I'm starting to adapt to him... I'm also starting to get the hang of the Complete Arsenal..."

Arhenahin launches at him, going to slam him in the gut. Akuma dodges it, as he spin kicks Arhenahin, sending him flying again. The two continue to exchange attacks, but Akuma starts to get the upperhand.

Ahton and Oblivion stare at each other. Oblivion chuckles, his sword materializing in his hand. "I suppose it is time for round three, Ahton. This time, I'm not going to play around."

A bunch of mortals would be below Ahton to assist him. Ahton spins around, his staff appearing in his hand. "I've come up with a new technique since the last time we fought, Oblivion."

His Orders and Royal Guardians draw toward him, as he absorbs them, fusing with them. A pillar of light shoots from him, as he shoots forward at full speed, swinging his staff.

Oblivion catches it with ease, staring into his eyes. "The most you are now is a Tier One, Ahton. It seems you've been training the past few hundred years."

He slams his knee into Ahton's stomach, causing him to cough up blood. Oblivion then mauls him on the neck, sending him tumbling across the platform everyone is fighting on. "GUH!"

He then raises his sword, sending Voidic Beings to go take down the many mortals there are. Luffy shoots forward, bringing back his fist all the way. "GEAR... FOURTH! SNAKEMAN!"

He slams a punch into the Voidic Beings, sending them tumbling back. "They're stronger than before! Kchh... I will avenge Sanji!"

"HAAAA!" Ichigo brings his Zanpakuto down, sending a slice that destroys a couple of Voidic Beings. "The ones fighting above are on a whole different level! The most I could do is try and destroy these guys!"

Akuma slams a punch onto Arhenahin's face, sending him flying far back. Arhenahin launches back, swinging a kick at his gut. However, he takes the blow instead of Akuma, being launched back.

Akuma smirks, chuckling. "I've mastered the Complete Arsenal. I have a counter to everything! My absolute defense is impenetrable!"

Arhenahin takes off at maximum speed, placing a hand on "Shi!" He attempts to use the killing technique on Akuma, but nothing even happens. Akuma spins around, slamming a kick which causes him to completely EXPLODE back.

Arhenahin lands on a large chunk of rock, crashing through it. He continues to crash through a ton of debris, before finally landing on the platform, injured.

Akuma levitates down in front of him, slowly walking forward. "What's wrong, Arhenahin? I thought God was supposed to be Omnipotent. You could've easily killed me if you were that powerful."

Arhenahin gets up, clenching his fists. He'd close his eyes, twitching. Akuma chuckles. "You show signs of weakness. Give up now, and I'll make it quick and painless."

"BIG BANG ATTACK!" Vegeta yells, launching a Ki bomb at Akuma. It bounces off of him before exploding, being erased out of existence. All nine of the Tailed Beasts charge up a combine Bijuu-Dama, launching it.

It vanishes before it could touch Akuma, as he looks down at all of the pirates, ninjas, monsters, warriors, and many, many others. "Die."

He raises his hands, launching a beam of endless power. It'd be pure white, as the gravity of it begins to tear apart the quantum fabric of the Metempiric Space.

Goku roars, entering Omni Evolution with Kaioken x100. He yells, launching a beam using every single bit of his energy. There'd be a massive boom as it collides with Akuma's white beam.

Goku is unable to slow it down even one bit, as it comes down on them. There'd be a bright light consuming the area, electricity shooting everywhere.

When the light fades, Arhenahin would have taken the blast, a hole in his chest. He falls onto his knees, grunting. "I've always... forbidden... myself... from using... that form..."

Akuma begins to walk toward him, his foot steps being very loud and heavy. "Form...? What is this form you speak of...?"

"They say in the legends," Piccolo says, "that God's form is incomplete. I always thought it to be false, but that may not be the case."

"So God's true form is Omnipotent, you're saying?" Vegeta asks. "Why doesn't he use it?"

Golden blood goes down Arhenahin's chest. "If I use that form, I could end up collapsing reality as we know it. It is the same form that created everything you see."

Akuma zooms in front of Arhenahin, grabbing him by the throat. "Yes, and I will destroy reality anyway, even if you do not use it... So, I'd suggest you use it, as I am getting bored of the fight."

Ahton and Oblivion skid back, their fight having halted. "My brother seems to be getting... blood-thirsty," Oblivion says, chuckling. Even the Voidic Beings would have stopped.

Arhenahin gets up, turning toward the entire battlefield of endless warriors. He sighs, closing his eyes. "MY CHILDREN! It is time... for us to reunite!"

"He can't be doing that," Ahton says, panting. "Is that what he means by..."

"Please, lend me your power!" Arhenahin says, raising his hands.

"He's..." Piccolo remembers what Nygyn said before.

FLASHBACK - START

"I will explain," Nygyn said. "At the beginning of reality, the first type of energy was created. Its name? Celestial Essence... It is the founding energy of everything. It is what created matter, it is what created the dimensions you are seeing. It is what created the very fabric of reality."

He turned toward everybody, who was listening to his story, even Tiias. "God split himself into an uncountable number of smaller bodies, which are the Tier Zeroes, aka the Founders."

FLASHBACK - END

[Music: Thomas Bergersen - Deliverance] [Start at 5:50]

Piccolo turns toward all of them. "He's going to reunite with his lost power. He's going to ascend to... infinity, and absorb the Tier Zeroes!"

"I-Infinity?" Naruto says, scrunching his eyebrows. "But, there's no end to it."

Suddenly, energy begins to draw toward Arhenahin, as many, many Tier Zeroes fly toward him, all above and below. They surround him, Arhenahin absorbing them. "Thank you..."

A bright light shoots from the center of Arhenahin. A bright pillar of light shoots up, as the entire infinite Metempiric Space begins to swirl around the center. A galactic aura appears, as rays of light shoot everywhere.

"N-No way..." Piccolo says, sweating. "He's..."

"The energy is strangely calm," Gohan says, his hands twitching. "It's like... It's like it's relaxing."

"It's the birth... of God..." Vegeta says. A multi-colored pillar of light shoots up into the air. Everybody feels their energies replenishing, all of them getting up.

A galactic colored figure takes a step forward, as reality would seem to revolve around it, everything, matter and anti-matter. It's almost as if reality itself knows that God created it.

Reality swirls around the figure, as it opens its eyes. Stars revolve around the figure, as it looks up at Akuma. Akuma chuckles. "Now, we fight as equals!" He takes off at full speed toward God, who stares at him.

Akuma roars, swinging a full force punch. It lands, as it doesn't even phase God. He would feel nothing from the punch. Akuma's eyes widen, sweat going down the side of his face. "H-How?!"

God places a hand on his shoulder, staring into his eyes. "To protect life, I create and destroy."

Suddenly, Akuma is launched back so fast, that he'd transcend infinite speed. His figure breaks apart, as he'd be going through the Metempiric Space, half of it infact, which was seemingly infinite before.

Arhenahin raises his hand, as Akuma crashes through unlimited amount of Omniverses, damaging him beyond a point of recognition. Akuma is then launched back to the platform, completely disintegrating it from the impact.

"I might've shit myself," Vegeta says, his jaw completely dropped.

"This guy is literally God," Sasuke says, his Rinnegan basically useless at trying to keep track of any battle right now. "Of course he's Omnipotent. Reality itself, everything that involves all layers of reality was created by him. He knows everything. He sees everything. He has everything. Reality is under his control!"

"This is worrisome," Akuma thinks. "At this rate, he could kill even me, and I'm immortal! I didn't expect him to be this powerful!"

Akuma yells, using the stolen Kaioken technique. He takes off toward God, barraging him at an insane rate. God just takes them, the attacks doing nothing to phase him. "Your time has come, Akuma."

"We are exact opposites!" Akuma yells, launching a beam at him, which gets deflected. "I should be equal- no... stronger than you!"

God swipes his hand through Akuma. slicing him clean in half. He negates his regeneration, preventing him from regenerating. A wind spiral then shoots from his palms, ripping Akuma apart.

Akuma manages to regenerate anyway, falling onto the ground. "You forget... I have Complete Arsenal! An Omnipotent being... has nothing against me!"

God's eyes pulse, as Akuma is sent crashing through infinity, everything flashing. Akuma's eyes go blank, him blacking out. God then lowers his hand, as Akuma is launched downward, slamming onto the edge of the Metempiric Space.

A ripple goes through everything, as everyone is knocked off of their feet. Goku grunts, looking up at God. "Amazing... We can't even compare to him now. I wonder what level he is..."

Akuma falls through a portal, collapsing onto the ground. He grunts, regaining consciousness. "Heh... I have... immortality!"

"You're being foolish, Akuma," God says. His glowing galactic aura grows in size, as Akuma looks up at him, squinting. "What kind of power is that?"

"It is... pure God essence," God replies. "Celestial Essence wasn't the only thing that was split..."

"Wait a minute," Goku says, looking at his hands. God Ki materializes around him, as he enters Super Saiyan God. "So, all this time... God Ki wasn't just... God Ki must've been once a part of God!"

"All this time," Piccolo says to Goku and Vegeta, "God Ki was the reason you were able to build up many forms until Omni Evolution. It's a building block, a building block of power itself."

"And God has the original essence, huh?" Vegeta says, watching the battle. "He has access to Celestial and God Essence. He really is Omnipotent."

"A power worthy of gods," Akuma says. "However..." A bright light consumes him, a galactic aura appearing around him. "I know how to use that as well..."

To Be Continued in Chapter Nineteen

A very fun chapter that I've been waiting a while to make! By the way, happy New Year's! Way to kick off the year with a brand new chapter of the final FanFiction of the trilogy!

The story isn't over yet, however. I still have some stuff to show you in this FanFiction, so we will be going for a couple more chapters. I decided to bring in some more nostalgia as well!

Don't worry, though. Goku and Vegeta's parts in the story aren't over yet. They're just too weak right now to even compare to God and Akuma.

I will see you in the next chapter!
