Hello everyone! This is my first crossover and if there are any errors and inaccuracies-point them out to me. I will be sincerely grateful. The only request for criticism is that it be constructive.
I also want to say that English is not my native language, so there may be translation errors. I sincerely apologize to you for this.
I was inspired to write this text by fanfic from Juan Sotomayor. I decided to take some points from his work as a basis and Refine it, removing, as for me, unnecessary moments and errors associated with the Dragon Ball Universe, and with Rising of the Shield Hero.
I'm fairly familiar with both the Dragon Ball universe and Rising of the Shield Hero, so there won't be many plot errors (I hope so).
I don't own either Dragon Ball or Rising of the Shield Hero. These franchises belong to their creators. Enjoy your reading!
Chapter 1 "Arrival".
Several months have passed since the end of the tyranny of Artificial Humans and the destruction of the Imperfect Cell, which left scars on Earth and humanity that will never be forgotten. The planet is slowly beginning to recover from a seemingly endless nightmare.
"Finally, this horror is over, Gohan-San! These monsters are destroyed and peace has come. This is the time of peace that we have all been waiting for and fighting for, making a great sacrifice to achieve it. Now you can rest in peace, friends!», - Trunks mused with some joy as he flew over the dilapidated city of Bridge Town in search of refugees to take them to the Capsule Corporation in West city, where they would be given shelter and assistance.
Sensing a small source of weak Ki nearby, he decided to land and reconnoiter. Suddenly someone needs help. After descending a short distance from the broken window of a bookstore, Vegeta's son went inside. Looking around, the Trunks found no humans, but the strange energy was still there.
Approaching the source of this Ki, demisayajin was surprised – it came from book! After brushing the binding of dust and glass fragments, the young warrior was able to read its title - "The Tale of the four sacred tools."
"Hmm, this must be some kind of fairy tale" - thought Trunks.
Skimming through the book, he briefly found out the main plot – the world is approaching the end of the world and soon will come waves of disasters that will destroy the world.
"It seems that even in this fictional world there is no peace" - Trunks said with a sad sigh.
He also learned that 4 heroes using different weapons were called to prevent the "Apocalypse": a spear, a sword, a shield, and bow. When he reached the hero of the sword, he found that the pages were empty. This surprised the Trunks somewhat, though he did not attach much importance to it.
Suddenly the room was lit up by a bright light from the book. Throwing it on the floor, son Vegeta jumped, but it was too late - the light had consumed him. demisayajin, flying in a strange space, felt weak and lost consciousness.
When Trunks came to, he looked around. He found himself in a large room unknown to him.
"Where am I, anyway? I don't know of any such buildings that survived the attacks of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth. In addition, I can't feel the Ki of my mother, nor the Ki of Muten Roshi and others. It's weird..." - silently thought demisayajin, slowly starting to worry.
In addition, he was greatly puzzled by two problems. The first was that the son of Vegeta felt the loss of at least one third, if not half of his power. Another problem, which, in the future, can cause trouble – his tail grew again!
"Damn, that's not good!» - Trunks thought anxiously, and wrapped its tail around its waist, making a kind of "belt" of it.
He also noticed that the room was filled with a group of people dressed in robes. Their Ki was somewhat stronger than that of an ordinary person.
In addition, there were three other people of different sizes and ages standing next to him. Their energy was about the same as an ordinary person, but it was very different in quality. The Trunks noticed that each of them had a weapon. The short guy with curly hair on the left had a Bow. The tall one with long blond hair standing to the right has a Spear and the guy with black tousled hair standing a little further from the Spearman has a Shield.
Looking down at his right hand, the demisayajin saw that he was holding a sword of unusual shape, as if taken from some fairy tale. Also from this weapon came Ki, which he had already sensed somewhere. And suddenly it dawned on him! A Book! A similar Ki came from the book he found in the destroyed bookstore!
But it didn't matter now. The main thing is to find out where he is, how he got here, and what is happening here in General. Noticing the person next to you in the mantle, the son of Vegeta decided to ask:
- What is this place? Where am I and how did I get here?
"Oh, please, Brave Heroes! Please save this world! a man in strange clothes exclaimed in an agitated voice.
"WHAT?"! - cried all four of the hero.
"What do you mean?" "What is it?" - asked the guy to the left and right of the Trunks.
- From what or whom to save this world? What's going on here? – immediately asked the son of Vegeta.
"Many things have happened, but one thing is certain: with the help of an ancient spell, we were able to summon you, Brave Heroes! the robed man replied. The room abruptly filled with silence, but the man continued to speak – This world is currently experiencing a global crisis. Brave ones, please grant us your power.
After saying this, the robed man bowed low to the heroes.
Three of the four heroes began to resent this, but the Trunks noticed something in the man's speech. There was no lie in it, only fear and anxiety.
This somewhat alarmed the young warrior. Something was wrong.
From these thoughts, son Vegeta tore the words of two of the four heroes. Their speeches were filled with greed and self-confidence. They did not want to help just like that and demanded a reward. When he turned to face them, he saw their smiling faces, but the guy on the far right didn't seem to share that idea.
"First, I would like to invite you to an audience with the king. We will discuss your reward there " - the man in the robe said.
"I hope the king will give me answers to my questions" - Trunks thought as he walked to the door that was open for the robed men.
Naofumi was somewhat surprised to be called as a hero to save the world, as in some banal manga or ranobe. On his right arm was a shield, which was surprisingly light.
Besides him and the robed men, there were three people in the room. Each of them had a weapon: a bow, a sword, and a spear. The first two didn't stand out, but the last one was different.
The guy was about the same height as him, maybe a little shorter. In age, he seemed to be of the same age, or perhaps a little younger. He had short, lavender-colored hair and a blue jacket with a strange sign in the form of two "C " and the inscription "Capsule". Also, he had a fairly large muscle mass. "He must be an athlete" - Naofumi thought. The guy's appearance suggested that he fights a lot, but wait, wait… It has a tail and it also moves?! This puzzled Naofumi very much. From the expression on the stranger's face, he could tell that the tail surprised the guy as much as it did him.
After the man in the robe told them that this world had suffered a catastrophe that threatened to destroy it and they were called to prevent it, Naofumi was surprised at the task assigned to Him. However, the subsequent speeches of other heroes were not so impressed.
"Heh... It is necessary, for many to get into a parallel world and become a hero – an impossible dream, but for us it has come true, and you, having a rather banal view of history, complain and demand a reward, having learned your social status... "- with a note of irony, Naofumi reflected, walking to the door open for men in robes - "... I wonder what the king will tell us".
To be continued.
P.S: This was a trial Chapter. If you like it, I will continue to write this story further. See you later!
