Pan, Uub, Hercule, and Giru all stand with their backs against the tube entrance as the Sigma Force surrounds them.
"Oh no! This is not good! Not good! Not good!" Giru shrieks as he shakes in fear as the others guard him. Hercule mimics as he eyes the robot enforcers "They are not here yet! Not good!" Giru continues to shriek confusing the others
"These guys look tough...like real tough…" Hercule says through his chattering teeth.
"You two need to calm down… Giru, what do you mean they are not here?" Uub asks as the head robot interjects
"Your model T2006 is most likely malfunctioning. That would explain his erratic behavior. Return to us Giru." The commander remarks as they step forward
"Maybe...However, I bet you're just guessing" Uub responds smirking as he pauses for a moment "I don't know who you all are, Giru seems pretty afraid to even use your guys' team name but...I don't see anything to be so scared about." Uub says as he stands exiting his battle stance instead waiting patiently
"Of course a low life form such as yourself would struggle to evaluate the proper level of danger within this scenario." The leader answers "I am Commander Nezi, brilliant and fierce leader of General Rildo's best soldiers. We serve to fight in his and all of M-2's honor." Commander Nezi explains as Pan scoffs
"I've heard better backstories, pal! All I see are fine additions to the scrapyard!" Pan yells snarkily
"You ready?" Uub asks as he turns to her
"Yeah….try to keep calm!" Pan says stumbling through her sentence trying to regain her boldness. Uub shakes his head as the two rush forward engaging the Sigma Force in combat. Commander Nezi and Uub fight in an intense flurry as both trade blows while slightly floating above the ground. Commander Nezi is surprised by Uub with a good shot to his robotic stomach. The stunned Nezi is then grabbed by Uub as Uub turns around and throws Nezi into the skyscraper behind him. Uub then flies off to continue his battle with Nezi as the others move in closer towards Pan.
"Alright, you trash buckets...which one of you want some of this!" Pan says shaking her fists. The small stubby robot with what appears to be a green barrette, Natt steps forward
"Gentlemen, I have these three. Go join back up with a glorious commander to finish the strong one. I will make short work of this one." Natt says Pan scrunches her face annoyed. The other two bots look at one another as they then nod flying off to fight Uub.
"Guess someone grew a back this morning huh? You think your tough little guy?" Pan says in a mocking tone
"Angry adolescent mud creatures are nothing to fear. Especially the weak ones." Natt says as Pan looks back at her grandpa as he shakes holding Giru
"Oh yeah...well...you don't seem too tough… I bet I could take you!" Pan responds in her excited tone as Natt dashes towards her. Pan's once confident face turns to one of shock and fear as she thinks to herself "Sheesh I am in way over my head, aren't I! He's probably just as strong as someone like Maron's mom! And I'm no Super Saiyan…." Pan thinks to herself as she continues to lose her confidence.
"Giru! Take my grandpa somewhere safe! This piece of junk is going to get a real good beat down!" Pan shouts hiding her fear.
Uub throws a series of connecting jabs and strikes as Nezi attempts to stand all while the other Sigma Force members watch. Uub finishes his powerful combo with a straight punch only for Nezi to catch his fist stopping the assault
"Impressive specimen, Lord Myuu will enjoy dissecting you," Nezi says as he throws a punch to Uub's ribs. Uub stumbles back as Nezi dashes forward unloading a barrage of concise and brutal strikes as the other Sigma Force members watch.
Elsewhere on M-2 three shadows cover the terrain as they fly forward. The three rush forward blasting off leaving behind three ki streaks leading to the large city.
Pan flies all across the city attempting to flee from Natt to no avail
"You organic creatures are ones for talk, not combat it would appear." Natt remarks annoying Pan
"Hey shut up rust bucket! I am a part of the toughest warrior race there ever was! I'm a Saiyan!" Pan yells as she fires a series of ki blasts. The robotic menace deflects all of the blasts reciprocating with one of his own which hits Pan. Pan dives downward crying in pain as she crashes into a rooftop below. Nameless bots surround her as Natt floats down to finish the young Saiyan
"Oh no! Pannie poo's down! We got to do something Giru! Or should I say, traitor! This is all your fault damn it I'm gonna ruin you!" Hercule cries with tears swelling in his eyes as he shakes Giru sad and not knowing what to do.
"Ahhh I said I am sorry! Besides we just need to wait...I kind of have a plan…" Giru exclaims worried
"What kind of plan do you have, turncoat!? Resume your work for these monsters!?" Hercule whales
"Get a hold of yourself…'champ'..." a familiar female voice says as Hercule turns back only to see no one. He then looks off at the roof seeing a familiar face fly towards it
"Wait...she's here…but why?" Hercule says confused releasing Giru
"Well they are my plan…" Giru utters as he stands by Hercule watching
Pan crawls back in fear as Natt continues forward, prepared to finish her off. However, the robots surrounding her begin to explode as green ki blasts hit each and every one of them. Pan looks around confused as Natt looks with her. Natt turns around only to be kicked in two by Zangya as she lands destroying the machine.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. You hurt Saiyan?" Zangya asks as she stands confidently over the rubble of Natt.
"No….No I am fine…..when...when did you guys get here? Why are you guys here!?" Pan asks confused but happy
"Well we received a bounty….sorta. We were hired to protect three Earthlings. Mission accomplished….almost." Zangya shrugs as Rabanra and Ledgic fly by heading to Uub's location.
Uub tilts his head to the right, slipping a jab thrown by Nezi as the robot dips forward. Uub retaliates headbutting the machine knocking it off balance. As the robot leans back with its left foot off the ground Uub drives his knuckles upward landing a powerful uppercut sending the commander flying to the edge of the building.
"Thought you were the best they got?" Uub says panting as he rips the tethered piece of his gi exposing his chest.
"The Sigma Force is unparalleled." Bizu and Ribbet say as they step out and guard Nezi. Nezi begins to beep loudly as he jets out of the hole in the side of the building. Uub looks on shocked as Bizu and Ribbet turn around. As the two robots turn they are sliced in half by a ki blade connected by Rabanra and Ledgic. The two alien warriors touch down as the robots fall apart.
"Le-Ledgic!? What are you doing here!?" Uub says shocked with a large grin covering his face.
"Heh, came for our rematch. Heard some droids were gonna take the pleasure of besting you." Ledgic says smirking as Rabanra throws his hands in the air
"I'm here to you know…..I also have a score to settle…." Rabanra says as he crosses his arms looking off into the distance attempting to impress.
"Jeez, I rematch with the two of you sounds great! However I think we may have our hands full…" Uub says laughing
"These droids don't seem to be a hasil, I doubt we'll struggle too much." Ledgic remarks as he and Rabanra turn around whilst Nezi stands.
"Those two love theatrics….who am I kidding so do I!" Zangya cheers as she looks around excited.
"Huh… I'm just blown away...I can't believe you guys all showed up….especially that Ledgic guy. I would have imagined he'd still be helping out all of the Imeckians…" Pan says as she looks up at Zangya happy
"Oh he had finished up there not too long ago. They built a statute of him even. Him and that one boy."
"Wh-What!? They built a statue of those two! What about all the work I did!" Pan shouts. Zangya burst into laughter as she hunches over unable to contain herself
"Sorry sorry that was priceless, ah man….You are pretty predictable...guess it's not just your combat." Zangya smirks
"Hey! What are you talking about!" Pan yells defensfly
"Look kid you got potential, but your trainer should look into some meditation for you. I don't know something" Zangya says shrugging
"Well I don't have some trainer. I am all on my own!" Pan brags
"That explains it. You better find one, someone who can really help you grow." Zangya says as she then floats into the air preparing to head to the others. Pan looks up at the alien warrior as her eyes widen
"Wait!" Pan says as she calls Zangya stopping her
"What is it-" Zangya says, turning around only to notice the wires of Natt's top and bottom half starting to reconnect "Dodge!" Zangya shouts as she fires a ki blast. The blast passes Pan as Pan leans away, caught off guard. The blast hits vaporizing Natt.
"Close one, he might have been able to get the drop on you. Guess you're lucky i'm here." Zangya chuckles as she continues flying away.
"Hey wait! I want you to train me!" Pan says, flying forward catching up to her
"What!? Me!? I guess it makes sense, I do come from the ultimate warrior race." Zangya says chuckling as the two fly
"Yeah yeah whatever, what do you say?" Pan asks
"Well, we start today!" Zangya says with her ego boosted as Pan too enjoys the moment.
"You two have successfully bested my two men with simply one attack. Your power is quite impressive." Nezi states to the three heroes as they stand waiting to attack.
Meanwhile within M-2's core Rildo hears Nezi's statement.
"Warriors capable of completely destroying the Sigma Force eh? I guess I should get involved. Would hate to lose our very best." Rildo states as he uncrosses his arm and looks sternly at the core.
"Sorry dear, I have to work." Rildo says as he walks off abandoning the Core as he prepares to enter battle.
Uub takes a few steps forward as he walks towards Nezi. Uub passes Ledgic and Rabanra as he stands in front of the two
"I appreciate you two coming to my aid. Nezi seems to be on my level. It would be hard to take him and his cohorts out. I am truly grateful." Uub says calmly as he stands across from Nezi
"What!? This hunk of junk on your level? I guess you really let yourself go huh kid." Rabanra says as walks forward to Uub's side
"I think you have a bad case of underestimating your opponents. I assure you he's tough." Uub says smirking
"Oh yeah!? Watch me finish him no problem!" Rabanra says turning to Uub shaking his fist aggressively
"I doubt you really can…" Uub jokes as he turns to an angry Rabanra. The two stare at each other for a moment as Rabanra squints. His eyes then open as he looks around
"Wait a sec….are...are we rivals?" Rabanra says
"Uhhhhh" Uub speechless retorts as he looks to a disinterested Ledgic "I guess we kind of are…" Uub says somewhat unsure
"Oh man….big mistake on your part pal. You couldn't have picked a worse one!" Rabanra states as he then marches forward confidently "Look kid your days as a hero are pretty much over. Go home and let the real ones step in." Rabanra says winking as he and Nezi rush eachother battling outside in the air above M-2.
"He's a rather odd one…." Uub says looking up in the air as Rabanra and Nezi trade blows
"He's a loud one…" Ledgic says shaking his head
"So, how's Imecka?"
"It's doing great. I'm very proud of what I was able to do. So you know, thanks kid." Ledgic says
"All I did was 'beat you' you did everything else" Uub says cheekily acknowledging the reality of the fight
"You know what happened don't you."
"I do. I am very sorry if I did manage to hurt you. However I find that hard to picture."
"You caught me with something good, but thanks. So anyway now my turn. The hell are you doing on this planet….what even is this planet?" Ledgic says looking around at the mechanical city
"Long story, however there are seven orbs in that tower that I need." Uub says pointing at the large central tower where Dr. Myuu resides
"That one? Alright then what are we waiting for lets get a move on." Ledgic replies dusting his hands off ready to depart.
"You know what? Yeah let's go! We can take 'em! You and I together!" Uub happily remarks as the two fly off heading to the tower. They fly by Rabanra as he continues to fight Nezi.
"Have fun you two! Don't forget my great moment here!" Rabanra says as Nezi crashes him into a building restraining his wrists.
"We know you won't let us champ!" Ledgic replies as Uub and him continue forward.
"Hey you two!" Zangya says as her and Pan meet up with Ledgic and Uub
"Zangya I see you made quick work of your target." Ledgic responds
"That toy was child's play. Where are you two off to?" Zangya asks
"Well mam we are planning on grabbing our Dragonballs. They're all currently in that tower up ahead." Uub says pointing
"Dragonballs huh? Those are the things the Namekians create right….wait a sec, was that orb we fought over...was that a Dragonball?" Zangya asks
"Exactly that." Uub remarks
"What in the world does this guy want with the Dragon Balls?" Zangya asks intrigued
"Whatever it is it can't be good….this planet reeks of evil…" Pan states "Now can we get a move on!"
"Right!" They all say as the four of them fly forward heading to the tower. All stop dead in their tracks however as Rildo rushes in at an immense speed blocking the four of them. Everyone quickly reacts entering their stances
"Wow, that speed!" ledgic says gritting his teeth
"I see. So you are the ones who dispatched the Sigma Force. Well done. Most organisms would fall to their might." Rildo says applauding the heroes
"You're dealing with a Heran, the true mighty warrior race!" Zangya says as she looks down at Pan with a cheeky smirk
"I can see that. Well I suppose that's enough talking, we all know why we're here and what's going on. I say it's time we put that all aside, and start this damn thing." Rildo says cutting to the point
"Now we're talking!" Ledgic shouts as he and Zangya charge forward while Uub and Pan hang back and wait. Rildo dodges all of the attacks thrown along with countering rather effortlessly. He backhands Zangya sending her staggering back as he catches Ledgic's foot
"Not good enough." Rildo says, throwing Ledgic back. Ledgic flies back as Uub and Pan watch stunned. Rildo continues his assault launching his fist from his arm as it rockets toward Ledgic. Ledgic catches himself mid air and quickly evades the incoming fist only to be caught by a regular punch from Rildo. Rildo's fist flies back returning onto Rildo's arm. As it reattaches Rildo uses it to land a devastating blow knocking Rildo back. Zangya flies up from behind only for Rildo to elbow her, swatting her away.
"You think you're tough….ok...I'll treat you like a tough person….I'm going all out. If you haven't been I suggest you do. You're gonna need all the help you can get pal." Ledgic says sternly. Ledgic once again grips the spikes on his shoulders and draws his two swords from them.
"Wait...Ledgic is gonna use his full power!?" Uub says with excitement dripping through the sentence
"How strong is he?" Pan asks
"No clue. I doubt he used much on me. I need to see this!" Uub responds eager to view. Light green blue bolts of electricity spark around Ledgic's body as he releases a large powerful scream. As the scream intensifies so do the sparks as they form a large aura. The entire planet shakes slightly as Zangya smirks knowing what to expect. The scream ends. Ledgic stands unchanged physically, however his power is beyond what was once seen.
"Final warning, give me everything you got." Ledgic says as he stands ready to fight.
"Wow! Ledgic's incredible! His power is nearly as great as Master Goku in his Super Saiyan 3 form!" Uub states while he watches in awe
"What!?" Pan responds shocked. She stares on, as Ledgic and Zangya return to fighting Rildo. Ledgic dashes forward flickering as he approaches the mechanical warrior. Zangya circles Rildo waiting for Ledgic's next move.
Down on the streets of the planet Hercule and Giru run from building to building hiding away from Rildo and the other machines.
"We should be safe here-" Hercule says, panting only for Rabanra and Nezi to crash from above, landing in front of the two helpless viewers. Hercule's jaw cartoonishly drops to the ground as his eyes widen all whilst Rabanra struggles to hold down Nezi.
"Stupid robot!" Rabanra shouts as he strikes Nezi while maintaining the top position
"W-we….We are just gonna go…." Hercule stutters as he and Giru slowly back away exiting the building walking back out into the streets. A stray ki blast from Ledgic's fight with Rildo narrowly misses Hercule's face scaring the 'proud hero'
"Damn it! Just one safe space, that's all I need!" Hercule shouts annoyed and frightened. Hercule then hangs his head as the planet shakes violently.
"Well, what do we do…." Hercule asks Giru reluctantly.
"Hmm, well Myuu's fortress will be guarded fairly lightly….perhaps we should….infiltrate?" Giru suggests not knowing what else they could/should do.
"You mean to tell me….we should rush back into the very building I was trapped in! No thank you! Besides, you act like we can handle all of those robots by ourselves…" Hercule states
"Well…..didn't you defeat great evil back on your homeworld?" Giru states as Hercules eyes sit opened and embarrassed
"Uhhhh huh…." Hercule stutters as he starts to walk away. Giru follows shortly behind
"Not to mention you technically beat Zangya. Are you not capable?"
"Hey watch out! Robots!" Hercule screams, pointing at nothing as Giru turns. Hercule scampers off as Giru turns back seeing him turn a corner.
"Hey watch where you guys' blasts go, you nearly hit my grandpa!" Pan shouts as she stands with Uub staring at a blur as Zangya and Ledgic fight Rildo.
"Pan, you should go help Mr. Satan and Giru. Things could get dangerous for them." Uub remarks
"Why don't you go guard them? You…..you are stronger after all…." Pan says sighing
"Look Pan I appreciate your efforts to make it up to me, but in all honesty I think i'm needed here…" Uub states as he swings his head toward Rildo as Rildo holds both Zangya and Ledgic by the throat.
"You….you just want to try and fight the strong guy!" Pan says slightly upset
"What!? No, no, that's not the case! I just think I should help out!" Uub somewhat flustered responds waving off the idea.
"Whatever….just know you owe me!" Pan says as she flies off to go meet up with her grandpa
"Yup I owe you….I can live with that…" Uub says to himself as he turns back seeing Ledgic and Zangya continue to struggle as they are continuously choked.
"You two are impressive for purely organic creatures. However my abilities far exceed your own. Afterall I have been graced by-" Rildo attempts to say only for Uub to at full power crash into him. Uub's normal blue aura flickers a dark pink as he crashes against Rildo's chest. The impact sends Rildo dashing back ever so slightly as Rildo releases the two heroes. Rildo's chest breaks open showing his bluish skin.
"Thanks for the save kid….could have done it sooner but not bad." Zangya says rubbing her throat
"Yeah I know I know….just needed time to prepare…" Uub says nervously
"Doesn't matter, we outnumber him….his sheer power can't handle all three of us!" Ledgic states confidently
"Oh on the contrary. My max power output is still greater than the sum of all of yours but the difference remains." Rildo states as he stares down the three of them "Before we proceed, I have a request." Rildo states
"You want us to make it quick? Cause trust us we will." Ledgic states
"No. I wish to move this battle to somewhere…" Rildo begins to say as he points at the dense jungle behind him in the far distance. As the heroes look the once dense jungle has a crater open within it. "...more open." Rildo finishes saying as he seems to have manipulated the land mass.
"Sure, I think I can get behind that." Uub nods agreeing to the request.
"Then follow me." Rildo says flying off guiding the heroes. Uub and Ledgic follow shortly behind only for Zangya to stop
"What the? You two go without me...I need to go check on Rabanra!" Zangya says as she blasts off heading back into the city.
"Damn it! Hurry back, and bring him too!" Ledgic yells back as he and Uub continue to the battle location.
Hercule sits in the corner of a dark destroyed building rocking back and forth as Giru stands there staring at him confused.
"Grandpa! Grandpa you there!?" Pan calls floating by trying to sense him.
"I-in here Panny….Panny Pooh!" Hercule shouts through his tears. Pan enters waving as she asks what's wrong.
"It's nothing just a healthy coping mechanism...:" Hercule utters sniffing all the while
"Grandpa...were you hit by anything?" Pan asks leaning down patting his shoulder
"No...Just scared and stuck here alone with this traitor!" Hercule screams as he points at Giru angrily. Giru tilts his head down saddened.
"Grandpa! Surely you of all people would understand mistakes…." Pan says confused by his anger
"My mistakes only endangered myself! I never lead anyone to some death trap! I always stuck my neck out. That's more than this little bot!" Hercule screams
"But Grandpa….he also saved us...he called the bounty hunters. He was able to devise a plan to help break you guys out. He may have completely betrayed us and hurt us more than words can describe!" Pan says starting to feel some of the rage as she looks at the already bummed Giru ``But just being mad him won't get us anywhere. So pick yourself up and be the hero the Earth knows you are!" Pan says picking Hercule up helping him stand on his own two feet.
"What in the world am I doing! I am done with the pep talk...we got Dragon Balls to grab!" Hercule says wiping his tears away running forward leading the charge.
"That….that took less than it normally does!" Pan says surprised and happy to see her Grandfather being more than just a sad man. Pan flies off as Giru struggles to keep up.
Rabanra and Nezi exchange a series of punches as the two fight an even battle. Rabanra throws a sidekick colliding with Nezi, Nezi tanks it throwing a heavy punch knocking Rabanra off balance. Rabanra falls to the ground holding his face in pain
"Damn maybe the kid hasn't just let himself go…" Rabanra says as Nezi rushes toward him preparing to throw a strike. Rabanra throws out a large wave of ki that flies toward the robotic warrior. Nezi blocks only for the explosion to send him flying to the back of the room. As the smoke clears Rabanra stands and celebrates as he sees Nezi standing with one arm.
"I guess I blew you away huh pal!" Rabanra laughs as he points at the injured machine "I'll be honest, I thought you had me for a moment...or I guess I just thought I would take longer...moral of the story is I surprise myself-" Rabanra brags only for the wall next to Nezi's arm socket to shoot out and fill the hole
"What the hell?" Rabanra says as it appears Nezi is gifted a new arm by the wall.
"Did the building just make you a new damn arm!?" Rabanra says startled just as a fully repaired Bizu and Ribbet return.
"I see what's happening now….I think…" Rabanra says as he sees the two robots he had thought he finished with Ledgic.
"Have the two of you discovered Natt?" Nezi asks his now standing comrades
"Negative, he has been fully dismantled it would appear. We have already contacted the core." Bizu responds
"I see. A tragic day for the core. However, we won't be needing him to defeat this intruder. His power will be no match for stage two." Nezi says
"Stage what now?" Rabanra responds as the three droids all latch onto one another "Ahh….I think I am slowly understanding everything….gosh I hate this place…." Rabanra says hanging his head as a large imposing machine is formed.
"Behold stage two of the Sigma force. Sigma 2X ." The conglomerate bot remarks as a thick bead of sweat drips down Rabanra's face.
"So...you guys can do…. Whatever this is, huh…." Rabanra stutters struggling to comprehend what stands before him as he starts to sweat.
"Our power has risen to a level beyond you. Bizu and Nezi were perhaps your equals, this discrepancy has been fixed. Combined we form the second strongest warrior under the service of M-2." The towering robotic figure states as Rabanra's eyes widen greatly.
"Now prepare to suffer for your interference with scientific research!" Sigma states as he extends his arm forward as it opens up creating a cannon blaster. The blaster charges as Rabanra plans on how he'll deal with the combined mech. However, before the cannon could fire, the conglomerate is caught off as Zangya lands a large ki blast. The bright light glows strongly binding Rabanra forcing him to cover his eyes. Upon lowering his arm to see what had happened, he sees Sigma standing still with steam emanating from his torso. Sigma turns around seeing the Heran. Her expression one of concern as the mechanical force turns to them s barley harmed
"Damn you Rabanra, finish the fight before they get all strong!" Zangya says to themself as they clench their fist annoyed.
Meanwhile, Ledgic and Uub descend in the opened space created and reserved for battle as Rildo repairs his wounded chest piece.
"Nice work kid, think you can do some more of that?" Ledgic chuckles looking at the damaged area
"Sadly I doubt it, but hey us teaming up, we might just be unstoppable!" Uub optimistically responds laughing.
"I assure you, the two of you will not be succeeding. However I am fully willing to give you any advantage. After all, I could use the workout." Rildo says smirking.
"Oh we'll see about that you bastard…" Ledgic says as he walks to the right. Uub watches as Ledgic connects his two swords into a double edged spear. Ledgic tightly gripping the weapon enters a battle stance and prepares to attack. Uub nods following along as he starts to walk to the left. Eventually Uub and Ledgic stand at an even distance from one another and Rildo as Uub gets ready to attack.
"Hmmm. I understand." Rildo says as he looks at the two warriors planning some sort of assault. A moment of silence hangs only to be shattered in an instant as Uub and Ledgic synchronize and rush forward attacking Rildo. The three enter a flurry and trades shots while evading attacks. Rildo dips back avoiding the stab of Ledgic's spear as he elbows backward striking Uub stunning the young warrior. Uub for a brief moment pauses only to wrap his hands around Rildo's upper arm, restraining it for a split second.
"Take this!" Ledgic says as he drives his spear a tiny bit forward piercing Rildo's chest digging the blade in deeper. Rildo with his free hand swings sending Ledgic flying away as Rildo then easily breaks free from Uub's grasp and spins around kicking Uub in the side of the neck. Uub's eyes go white for a split second as his neck is severely injured from the attack all while his body is sent spiraling through the air.
"No!" Ledgic cries seeing Uub's nearly unconscious body fly. Before Uub can simply leave the area, a liquid metal pillar rises from the planet blocking his body keeping him within the battle area. His body collides with the pillar as it then starts to fall to the floor. Before collapsing onto the ground a liquid string extends from the pillar and ties around Uub's ankle suspending him in the air still barely conscious.
"That should handle you. At least for the time being." Rildo says staring at Uub as Uub's seemingly lifeless body slowly twirls
"You sick bastard, I guess this is what I should expect from a cold machine!" Ledgic says as he dusts himself off.
"I'm the sick bastard? Please Ledgic you are in no position to be talking. And I find it a rather silly oversimplification to call me just a machine." Rildo remarks as he scoffs whilst ripping Ledgic's spear out from his torso "You have done jobs for us in the past, my 'crimes' and your own are not very different." Rildo throws Ledgic his spear. Ledgic catches it as he snarls
"I haven't done a job for you lot in some time. If you're gonna attack my character, get better sources."
"Say something more current? Easy peasy. Say how's Imecka? After all you have been paying visits to that abused planet for what? The last five years? Arguably you are the leading reason it has been under the control of a selfish maniac no?" Rildo replies stepping forward approaching Ledgic
"Funny you should mention it, I am also the leading reason that place is a new paradise. I'd say visit it if you didn't have some glaring expiration date." Ledgic responds with a arrogant smirk as Rildo shakes his head.
"I am blown away by your ability to perceive that. How about some education!" Rildo yells as he fires off one of his fists, rocketing it toward Ledgic. Ledgic tilts his head slipping the fast attack only to then have to block an incoming laser from Rildo's arm's hole. Ledgic narrowly manages to put up his spear to block the blast but the force manages to push Ledgic. Just as Ledgic's balance is tested Rildo's runaway hand comes speeding back striking Ledgic in the back of the head knocking him to the floor as the laser subsides. Ledgic lays face first in the dirt as he looks up at Rildo approaching him.
Pan, Giru, and Hercule fly right back through the distribution tunnel they had all fled from earlier. The two enter the large robot waiting area only to see it filled back up with robots they had already destroyed.
"Gosh these things just don't quit now do they!" Pan says annoyed as Hercule stays behind her
"They do, they just come back…." Giru says hanging his head also upset
"Well I guess I have to handle this myself!"
"I believe in you! At least I think I do?" Giru says unsure of Pan's capabilities but while trying to stay positive. Pan fires a series of ki blasts destroying the first wave of robots approaching as she then bounces between the other machines attacking them with simple combinations utilizing her strength. Pan manages to clear the whole room by herself as she pants slightly.
"Wow! You did it!" Giru says happily with the sound of surprise in his voice.
"You actually destroyed them all Pannie pooh….Oh yeah! That's the champ alright!" Hercule shouts trying to hype both himself and Pan up to stay focused. The three run through the halls tearing through each robot put in their way as Giru guides them up the flight of stairs to Dr. Myuu's office.
Dr. Myuu sits in his office with the seven Dragon Balls watching the heroes on a monitor
"How peculiar, I suppose I should prepare to greet them." Dr. Myuu says as he stands up dusting off his suit.
Rabanra crashes into a skyscraper as Zangya wraps her arms around Sigma's head only to be grabbed and thrown off easily. Zangya flies through the air crashing into Rabanra as the two break through the wall of the building landing inside.
"Get off of me!" Rabanra screams
"Oh shut it!" Zangya replies
"He's so strong, he's just like Ledgic. What the hell are we gonna do?" Rabanra asks as the two stand
"Ok, ok! Let's just calm down and try and think clearly. Surely the two of us combined can think of some way to take him out...hell we've caught Ledgic off guard before…"
"Sure…however Ledgic isn't trying to kill us!"
"Hmm no he isn't….that's very true… However, arguably Ledgic may be tougher in this case...afterall he knows what we can do...Plus he knows our personalities and strategies. I mean how many times has he seen and countered the wingdive attack." Zangya responds as the two stare up to a waiting Sigma
"I have not kept track but a lot...regardless what does it matter if this machine has no idea what we can do. What can we do? At least to it." Rabanra states annoyed by the power difference.
"Well we do have one tool, and it so happens that tool has a weapon." Zangya laughs as she taps on Rabanra's gem on his forehead
"Did...did you just call me a tool?" Rabanra asks as he hunches over looking upset.
"That's in the past, what matters if that rock in your head, come on you must have something you can do with it?" Zangya says annoyed expecting a miracle.
"Well I mean...I am not an expert on what it can do…..the only ability I have fully got under wraps would be completely ineffective against this Ki-less thing…"
"True…..wait...you can control your Ki fully, even when you release it right?" Zangya says with a thought. Rabanra nods as Zangya continues "Then why don't you give me some of your Ki!" Zangya says
"What? I can't just amp you….at least I don't think I can?"
"I don't want you to amp me...I want you to shield me!"
"Shield you?"
"Yes, give me a full shield of Ki, with it I can perhaps tank some of these attacks!"
"Sure that's not a terrible idea...but I would be so weak given how much ki that takes
"Doesn't matter, I'll be the one taking all the hits."
"Ok that's all well and good but how do we damage him- wait! I just got an idea! Your plan is brilliant. Here!" Rabanra says as his gem glows slightly. Rabanra releases his energy as a layer of Ki is given to Zangya
"There ya go that's most of it." Rabanra says as Zangya looks at her fist
"I feel so safe! This will do wonders…but you raise a good point, how will we really hurt him?" Zangya says with joy only to stop and worry
"Leave that to me…kinda you need to just go out there and swing." Rabanra replies as the two float up and fly out to re-engage in the fight.
"You two are simply too weak to engage. Quit now or be ripped of your gift of life." Sigma says as Zangya leads forward with their Ki shield rushing toward the machine
"Oh please don't get all scared now!" Zangya replies as she enters a pocket with the mechanical menace as she blocks a series of attacks. Zangya blocks another punch from Sigma as Rabanra calls out to her
"Zangya you gotta throw!" Rabanra yells
"You sure?" Zangya replies
"Trust me!" Rabanra says as Zangya aggres slipping a straight jab only to respond with a heavy punch
"Perfect!" Rabanra says from a distance as he waves his hands around causing his ki to shift around her body and move straight to her fist. The punch connects, sending Sigma flying back only for Rabanra's energy to reform around Zangya's body. Zangya floats looking at her hands confused as to how she was able to accomplish that feat in power.
"How did I….ohhhh I get it…." Zangya remarks as she looks back at Rabanra smirking
"Heh, guess I can lend her my power...just at a cost for her defence. Got to time this right, but I doubt anything- Oh Zangya look out!" Rabanra utters to himself only to shout out as Sigma rushes toward her on the attack. Zangya turns around barely managing to block a kick. The sheer force of the kick still propels her sending her flying back
"Here, I think I can kinda help a bit more!" Rabanra says flying out in front of her firing a barrage of ki blasts creating a large smoke cloud. Sigma pushes forward powering through the smoke only for Zangya to surprise the machine as she lands an axe kick infused with Rabanra's ki. The kick sends Sigma flying down into the ground below. Sigma crashes landing in the ground creating a crater. Sigma rises as he stares up at the two heroes annoyed.
"We seem to be doing good, we just got to keep mixing it up!" Rabanra says
"Yeah! How about a wingdive?" Zangya responds
"Ok….let's try it!" Rabanra says as the two dive downward flying toward Sigma.
"Hmm, this battle has grown rather difficult. If it continues within the city the core could be threatened. Perhaps I should relocate the battle. Hmm Rildo seems to have created an excellent substitute." Sigma says as he watches the two heroes rush toward him. He lifts off the ground and flies upward rushing toward them
"Heeah!" Zangya screams only for her and Rabanra to be caught of guard as Sigma purposely flies past them
"What the heck where is he going? Just as we started winning!" Rabanra says annoyed
"He's heading after the others! We got to stop him!" Zangya replies as the two blast off following shortly behind.
Ledgic runs at Rildo weak and nearly unable to move
"Die!" Ledgic cries as he throws his spear as if it were a harpoon. Rildo evades it smoothly as it stabs into the ground Ledgic then throws his arms back only to thrust them forward firing a large ki beam
"Solar Cannon!" Ledgic cries as he uses his full power to fire the bright, large, and spiraling beam. Rildo dashes toward it chuckling as he enters the attack.
Uub watches still struggling to stay conscious as he remains hoisted by the planet itself
"No...Ledgic!" Uub says in pain unable to help.
Ledgic stares forward putting more and more power into his attack hoping to eviscerate the brutal general only to be caught by a brutal body blow sending him to his knees as Rildo emerges out of the attack with his face and body damaged.
"Huh, you're pretty tough….that actually kind of stung. I guess I underestimated your power. Regardless I was still able to take your best shot!" Rildo laughs as he grabs Ledgic's throat pulling him from his knees.
"Your luck has run short- what the? Nezi and his men fused?" Rildo says as he drops a defeated Ledgic walking past him only to stop and stand staring off into the distance "Why would they need to? The power they possess in that form seems a tad excessive given their opponent. Perhaps they were being pushed back...doesn't matter their coming here. I shall make easy work of whoever seems to be giving them this challenge." Rildo states crossing his arms and lifting off the ground eagerly anticipating the incoming forces.
Rabanra and Zangya cut through the air as they speed toward their fleeing opponent.
"We really need to try and stop him, got any ideas?" Rabanra says
"Hmm, think you can open him up for a Shinning Slicer?" Zangya remarks
"Ugh, that name sucks! Are you still using it?"
"Forget the name! Yes or no!?" Zangya yells annoyed
"Yeah! Yeah! Sheesh just saying…" Rabanra remarks as he once again fires weak distractive ki blasts at Sigma.
"Put all your power into it, we want to destroy this stupid thing!" Zangya says as she begins charging the attack.
Sigma turns around seeing Rabanra rush out on his own. Sigma fully turns as he glides backwards while anticipating Rabanra's assault
"Here goes nothing!" Zangya sas as she creates a large spike edged disc in one hand throwing it sideways. The move leaves her hand as the aura that once wrapped around her body follows with it. This in turn makes the move far larger and its speed increases greatly
"Man that really takes a lot out of a guy…" An exhausted Rabanra says as he loses control of his flight and starts to plummet toward the planet. Just as he starts to fall the attack speeds forward and manages to hit a surprised Sigma. The attack continues to dig into Sigma as Zangya extends her hands forward
"See you in hell you hunk of junk!" Zangya shouts as her Shining Slicer technique explodes creating a gigantic ball of fire in the sky.
"Hmm….I suppose Sigma has met their match…." Rildo remarks as he looks off into the distance seeing the great ball of fire far away.
"Just who are you all?" Rildo says as he stares back down at Ledgic as Ledgic squirms on the ground.
Zangya pants heavily before sighing as the battle is one.
"Phew...we did it buddy, you and me...We really got to try that on Ledgic- Oh no! Rabanra hang on!" Zangya says as she dives downward flying toward Rabanra as he falls exhausted. Zangya manages to catch him at the last minute as the two land safely.
"Did we get him?" Rabanra asks as he sits in Zangya's arms
"We sure did. I was thinking that maybe we got to do that kind of thing more often."
"Yeah I guess that's how I can be useful right? No, I joke, I understand the obvious benefits." Rabanra remarks as the two chuckle "Alright you can put me down I think I can walk." Rabanra continues after
"Oh, yeah no worries." Zangya replies as she puts him on his feet. The two stand proudly as they look up at the cloud of smoke left behind
"That was one big explosion." Rabanra states
"The biggest we've ever made."
"To many more!" Rabanra cheers
"To many more. Now let's quit relaxing and go help the others." Zangya says as Rabanra sighs
"Yeah yeah we probably should do that...let's get it over with…" Rabanra states as the two blast off leaving the area.
However upon leaving the two fly by the head of the Sigma bot. The head slowly sinks into the ground as Sigma is still at large.
"They should be here shortly. I must say it's puzzling why two people who stand zero chance would march toward an inevitable end. You flesh freaks are insane." Rildo chuckles to himself as Ledgic starts to drag himself to his spear. Rabanra and Zangya fly in as they stop mid air staring at Rildo and his damaged body. Their eyes dart to the ground seeing Ledgic crawling
"Boss!" Zangya in a panic tone shouts clenching her fist anxiously
"I would pay attention. I am quite the handful." Rildo chuckles "So, the two of you managed to take out a fused together Sigma. I am quite impressed. I thought the two of you would have been vanquished. I thought your leader would be the only one of you to stand a chance. You proved me wrong. Congratulations." Rildo explains
"Shut it already, we are enemies. Let's get to the fighting already!" An exhausted Rabanra says as he puts his guard up. His arms raise weakly as Zangya enters a battle stance. Both drained and injured.
"Very well." Rildo remarks as he floats toward them
"Nooo! You guys need to run!" Uub cries out screaming in pain as flashing lights cover his face as in front of him Rildo deals with the two heroes still standing.
Pan, Hercule, and Giru run toward the door of Dr. Myuu's office. Pan laughs as she picks up the pace.
"Right there, he will have minor defences but should mostly be alone!" Giru says as the three continue
"Man how strong is he? Do I need to be more scared than I am?" A rather confident Hercule remarks
"Actually, physically I believe he would be around your level…." Giru says almost embarrassed
"Oh ho man!" Hercule and Pan say as the two struggle to contain their excitement. Pan blasts the metal doors burst them open as the heroes flood through it.
"Hello there." Dr. Myuu says greeting the heroes
"Save it, you took what belongs to us…" Pan says as she marches forward stomping toward him.
"I disagree. I simply collected artifacts. One does not own these beautiful creations." Dr. Myuu says as the platform holding all seven rises from the large round table. The disc holding all seven floats toward Dr. Myuu as he grabs the floating plate.
"Well you're wrong about that. Those come from Earth, and Earth really needs them back!" Pan says as she clenches her fist
"Well to tell you the truth, M-2 needs it more. Our core is slowly fading, it won't survive forever. Not unless we can channel the strange but monstrous energy we were able to track from these orbs into it. Then it shall last for the rest of time, and us Machine Mutants will conquer the universe!" Dr. Myuu patiently says as an energy shield forms around him in the shape of a cylinder. Pan fires a ki blast only for the barrier to guard against it and protect the scientist.
"This barrier is far too strong for your pathetic attacks. Now if you'll excuse me, I believe I have some research to do. Computer initiate the self destruct sequence and prepare a descent down to the sacred lab." Dr. Myuu says as the room around starts to flash red as sirens blare loudly.
"Oh no you don't! Time to use the ultimate technique, one that your stupid barrier won't survive!" Pan flustered, states as she enters the stance of the Kamehameha. She charges it as Dr. Myuu watches, she directs her energy and prepares the attack with rage in her eyes.
"Haaaaaa!" Pan screams as she fires the blue iconic beam at the shield. The beam travels across the room, only to dissipate before it can reach him. Pathetically the attack fades as Pan stands there confused and upset.
"Pitiful. Anyway, I wish you all the best as you enjoy your final moments." Dr. Myuu says shaking his head as the floor within his energy barrier sinks like an elevator taking the protection with it as he descends the shifting tower.
"How could I!? How could I fail something so simple! Can I do anything!" Pan screams as she kicks herself for letting Myuu get away.
"Pannie pooh, don't worry we'll get him next time….for now just focus on saving us!" Hercule says resuming his cowardly persona. Pan fires a ki blast at the wall of the building as she then grabs Hercule and Giru and flies through it. The three fly away from the building only for it to completely explode behind them. Pan floats mid-air holding Hercule by his gi as she stares at the destroyed tower with tears swelling in her eyes. The three float down softly landing on another rooftop as Pan sits and sobs.
Zangya and Rabanra's limp nearly lifeless bodies collapse next to Ledgic as he grabs his spear using it to stand.
"Still fighting?" Rildo asks as he lands only to see the three of them struggle to stand but still manage to.
"Alright team...glad you could join me...I'd like you by my side for my last fight…" Ledgic says with a slight smirk
"Any day boss!" Zangya passionately replies
"Wait last battle? We are just agreeing this is the end? Oh man….well it's been fun, you two are like my only family, and I hope you all know the complaints were never serious….every moment was special!" Rabanra says pouring his heart out as the two look at him oddly not expecting such openness
"Very touching loudmouth….now focus! We can't let him kill the boy! We have to find some way to protect him! He'll think of something…." Ledgic states
"What, my rival? What's he gonna do that you couldn't?" Rabanra asks confused
"I don't know, but he's a true warrior, something will come to mind… he just needs time…"
"He's hanging from his damn leg!"
"About that…." Ledgic stabs his spear into the ground next to him as he pulls yet another spike from his coat. He spins around throwing it at the string holding Uub cutting the boy free. Uub falls onto the ground still beaten as he looks up at the three alien bounty hunters prepared to defend him.
"Kid, you're the best chance we got, run!" Ledgic cries as he then turns back to Rildo as he and the other two rush forward ready to buy Uub the time to escape.
Rildo glides through the air storming toward the three aliens as Uub struggles to stand. Uub manages to get up, standing with his legs all wobbly as he holds his injured side watching in horror.
"Fools!" Rildo yells, grabbing Zangya and Rabanra by the throats. Ledgic roars as he rushes forward attacking the middle only to be countered by a swift kick to the neck from Rildo. The kick drops Ledgic sending him to the ground as Rildo then slams the other two's heads together. Zangya is knocked unconscious as Rabanra screams in pain.
"Noooo!" Uub cries as he trudges forward attempting to help. Rildo drops Zangya's unconscious body as he then throws Rabanra away. Rabanra soars through the sky as he lands near Uub. Rabanra with one eye opened looks up at Uub moaning in pain.
"Kid, why are you still here?" Rabanra barely manages to ask
"I….I have to help! I have to….I have to try!" Uub replies marching forward
"Just walk away...you're not in any shape to help…." Rabanra says before passing out.
"Hehe-what the? He's approaching me? What a dumb brat." Rildo says as he stops staring down at the two beaten bounty hunters noticing Uub. Rildo slowly raises his hand pointing his index and middle finger with his thumb extended. Energy emits from the tip of his fingers as he aims at Uub.
"This oughta do it." Rildo utters with a smirk as he fires a sharp precise laser. The beam quickly pierces through Uub's chest going straight through the heart. Uub's pupils fade as his head swings upward reacting to the lethal blow. Uub struggles to utter any audible sounds as he collapses forward lying on his stomach. His chin pressed against the ground staring forward as his mind starts to fade.
"Hehehe...hahaha-" Rildo snickers as it then turns to a deep cackle. His laughter quickly halted as the blade of Ledgic's spear drives upward through Rildo's jaw and poking out of the top of his face. Ledgic stares forward with a blank expression as Ledgic screams.
Ledgic cries as his energy travels up the conductive spear to the tip. Ledgic swings the spear back cutting Rildo's face into two halves. The two halves both droop downward, stretching like a thick jell. Ledgic stumbles onto the ground as Rildo stands annoyed more than anything.
"That….hurt." Rildo states in a quiet but angry tone as he pushes the two droopy pieces back into place showing a truly haunting stare. Rildo marches forward fast as Ledgic tries to crawl backward. Ledgic begins chuckling as Rildo unamused continues forward
"What can't handle a little pain? You looked so ridiculous, it was pretty funny!" Ledgic says only for Rildo to tightly grab his throat in one hand and the spear with the other. Rildo cocks his arm prepared to drive the spear into Ledgic's smirking face
"I assure you, no one else finds it funny. You'll die a clown-" Rildo states only to be caught off guard by laughter. Rildo looks past Ledgic as Ledgic's eyes shift attempting to see behind him
"I'm glad somebody seems to agree…" ledgic states as his smile returns. A smile indicating he knows full well what's taking place.
"I'll deal with you later." Rildo says dropping Ledgic. Rildo then drives the spear into Ledgic's shoulder holding him in place as he walks towards the source of the laughter. Uub.
"Didn't I just kill you? Or do you need to be reminded?" Rildo asks as he walks towards Uub. Uub's face is mushed against the floor as his body remains laid out lifeless almost.
"Did you hear me kid? How the hell are you breathing?" Rildo asks only for Uub's body to inhumanly swing up backwards without the use of his hands. He stiffens almost akin to a cartoon character. As he stands the tiny, clean hole that pierced his heart seems to heal and reconnect his tissue.
"Huh, guess you heal like me huh?" Rildo says, somewhat alarmed by Uub's nature. Uub's laughter continues growing and growing as it turns to a vicious cackle.
"What's going on…" Rildo states reeling back startled almost. A dark pink aura shoots out from Uub spikking upwards and destroying the ground around him. The wind increases dramatically, even managing to push a subdued Rildo back
"Huh!?" Rildo says reacting as Uub stares forward with red pupils. Uub dashes forward laughing all the while. As he flies, his arms droop, appearing as if they were broken.
"Nice theatrics but this is nothing!" Rildo yells as he re-asserts his footing and awaits. As soon as Uub gets in close Rildo throws a large punch propelled by jets around his wrist. His fist jets to the side connecting against Uub's cheek. Upon impact a wave of air is released slinging the unconscious bodies nearby outward.
"Hehe- what the?" Rildo reacts as Uub starts to push Rildo's fist back with his cheek.
Meanwhile back with Pan and the others, they start to look around at the changing weather and skies. Pan wipes her eyes as she stands up quickly
"What's happening!?" Pan yells
"I have no idea." Giru states taken aback by this
"Woah...what's that energy….is that….Uub!?" Pan says turning her head to the distance after feeling a glimpse of the immense power.
"I don't know what happened to you kid but now you're just fighting sloppy!" Rildo says as the two trade a series of blows as Uub's laughter continues. Rildo seems to land the more concise and clean shots however Uub seems unaffected. Whenever Uub lands it's unorthodox but seemingly efficient. Uub hits Rildo in the back of the neck hunching him over as Uub then swings both legs upward connecting right in the center of his stomach. Uub sends Rildo flying into the air, he laughs as he then somehow manages to contort his body into a ball shape. Uub's aura flashes yet again as he jolts upwards oddly in his ball form. He blasts straight through Rildo's body catching the machine mutant off guard.
"What!?" Rildo yells as his torso slowly begins repairing itself. Rildo spins around as the giant hole in his chest is slowly fixed. Upon turning around he sees Uub unravel back into regular shape and float upright. Uub cackles as he raises one hand and fires off a barrage of pink ki blasts into the sky. The blasts fall to the planet as they all rush towards Rildo.
"Uh oh…" Rildo says as he starts to block only for the sheer volume to break his block and drill him into the ground.
Uub shrieks as the blasts continue drilling into Rildo only for them to manage to push him through and into the planet. Rildo thanks to the ki blasts is being pushed through the planet as a large vertical tunnel is made. Uub's attack finishes as he bangs his chest and releases odd primal noises.
In space shortly after taking off, Goku, Gohan, and Bulma all sit inside the newly made spaceship heading on a rescue mission. Gohan stands dressed in the Great Saiyaman apparel as Goku stretches whilst still wearing his new blue gi with the yellow pants.
"Oh brother, all the seven Dragonballs are located on a planet that would take months to get to!" Bulma says Gohan clenches his fist
"Are you kidding me! We don't have months! Damn it! If only dad's Instant Transmission wasn't affected by all that negative energy!" Gohan cries as he slumps into a chair. Goku stands there for a moment as he recalls his time with King Kai. Goku remembers being able to actually use the technique.
"Son don't worry, I have a plan." Goku says as he grows a smile
"You have a plan? Oh brother I need to hear this…" Bulma says
"Gohan, I think the dark energy only clouds any ki sensing on Earth..we aren't on Earth at the moment...I think I can get us there!" Goku says happily.
"Hmm that does sound reasonable...you think you can find Pan's ki?" Gohan asks with hope
"Hmm maybe, but her power could be too small because of the distance. I'll try and look for Uub's- Woah!" Goku says with immense awe
"Dad what is it!?" Gohan asks
"It's incredible! It's so strong! Is that really Uub!? Oh man! He's just as strong as my Super Saiyan 3!" Goku says giddy at the notion.
"Wow that's pretty impressive, well dad take us there!" Gohan says grabbing Goku's shoulder
"Woah woah woah hang on just a moment….what about me and the ship!?" Bulma asks
"Well Bulma….I hate to say it but I think you should just pilot the ship around Earth for a bit...we need a ki signature to return to…" Gohan suggests
"What!? But he might not have even been able to feel out Pan's ki? How will he find mine!?" Bulma says outraged
"I don't know...we'll get to that when we can! Bye Bulma!" Gohan says as in an instant Goku vanishes.
Ledgic passes out as uub descends from the sky.
"Not bad kid...thanks for the help…" Ledgic utters before falling unconscious. Uub continues to pound his chest as he stares at the deep trench he created. Suddenly appearing out of thin air Goku and Gohan arrive teleporting right behind Uub.
"Guys...I feel more energy...not nearly as big...it's like mine….it's so familiar…." Pan says as she continues staring out in the direction of Uub
"Good familiar?" Hercule asks
"Oh my goodness….it's...it's Grandpa Goku!? Oh...and my dad!?" Pan says shocked and amazed
"What Goku!? Oh gosh take us to him!" Hercule says confused as Pan then grabs her grandfather and Giru. She then lifts off dashing forward heading out prepared to reunite with her grandpa and to her dismay, her father.
"Hey kid!" Gohan says as Uub turns his head back seeing his mentor and Gohan standing "What's going on?" Gohan finishes saying as Uub's eyes for a split second regain their natural colouring. His eyes then snap back to the dark red coloration as rising from the ground is Sigma, tatherd and damaged heavily with layers of his skin like surface completely missing.
"Alright!" Goku eagerly says as he tightens his belt. He and his son then enter a battle stance as they prepare to fight alongside Uub.
