Dragon Ball Nu
Chapter 14
Previously on Dragon Ball Nu, our heroes have encountered a new inter-galactic threat in the form of Bojack and his army. Vegeta, Gohan, and Piccolo lead the Z-Fighters into battle from this other-worldly invasion. Vegeta and Gohan have taken down the first couple fighters and the battle appears to be in our heroes favor, but is that about to change now that Zuccha one of the Saiyan members of Bojack's army have transformed will that change? We find out today.
'Damn it, he isn't just some weakling who stumbled upon the hidden power of our race. Of course he must've gotten this from intentional training.' Vegeta thinking to himself as he tanks a heavy punch. "You're not the only one with power!" Vegeta transforming with ease in front of Zuccha into the Super Saiyan state.
"So that's how you knew… you're a Saiyan too." Zuccha looking on with astonishment.
"I knew that guy looked familiar! He is a Saiyan! That's Prince Vegeta!" Zangya realizing just who Vegeta is and stunning the rest of Bojack's men.
"That can't be right. Yet here he is right in front of us. This is perfect." Bojack grinning. "ZUCCHA, THE SAIYAN IN FRONT OF YOU IS PRINCE VEGETA!" Bojack yelling out to inform Zuccha what is going on.
"Prince Vegeta?!" Zuccha echoing the words as they deeply resonate with him.
"Come now, don't tell me you lost all fighting spirit just because you are facing a true Super Saiyan." Vegeta preparing to end the fight as Zuccha stands in disbelief. "Well, this was a disappointment. You did impress me Zuccha." Vegeta throwing a punch full-force to end the fight.
Vegeta's punch being stopped mid-release by Zuccha's overflowing energy. "What?! An energy shield?" Vegeta yelling in disbelief.
"You are Prince Vegeta! The coward who left the last members of his own race stranded out in space to die! YOU WILL FEEL MY PAIN!" Zuccha raising his energy to be on equal grounds with Vegeta as the two re-engage in a heated battle. The two Saiyans meeting each other blow for blow even at blinding speeds neither showing an edge over the other.
'His power is still even with mine! That's not possible at this rate I'll have to resort to Super Saiyan 2.' Vegeta thinking to himself while trying to connect a punch on Zuccha. Zuccha then catching a punch and landing a heavy counter attack forcing Vegeta back a distance.
"Vegeta's in trouble. I need to help him." Gohan speaking to himself still exchanging punches with Mui-Mui who then takes the moment of distraction to land a right hook.
"You will go nowhere. I am your opponent." Mui-Mui looking angry that Gohan doesn't appear to be taking him seriously. "You will take me seriously. Zuccha is not the only capable fighter!" Mui-Mui raising his own power and beginning to land punches on Gohan who still is trying to recover his blocks from the punch taken.
"Alright, now you are making me mad." Gohan spitting out a mouthful of blood and spiking his own power. "I will protect this planet and my friends!" Gohan choosing not to transform but instead just boosting his power as far as possible. Landing a fierce punch to Mui-Mui's jaw knocking out a few teeth. "I won't hold back. Not like last time." Blue sparks beginning to surround Gohan as if he was already in Super Saiyan 2 without transforming.
"Gohan is doing it! That's the way son!" Goku looking on from Other World and knowing Gohan is finally pushing the training Pikkon and Goku were using. "If he keeps going he will tap into all of his Super Saiyan power without transforming."
Pikkon feeling Gohan's energy from somewhere else in Other World. "Gohan!? His power is swelling greater than I've ever felt before. Is it possible?" Pikkon taking off to find Goku and King Kai.
"What in the world are you?" Mui-Mui looking on in shock and fear. "You can't have this much power."
"I'm the protector of Earth. I am a warrior forged from hardship. I used to be a helpless child who watched on when my friends were in trouble, but not anymore. I am Gohan and I am too a Super Saiyan!" Gohan then bursting from stand still so fast he lands a punch on Mui-Mui that shatters his arm.
"Aaggghh. My arm!"
"I will give you one chance to leave this planet." Gohan piercing his foe with intense eyes.
'I have to think of something, fast. This kid is insane.' Mui-Mui thinking to himself. 'I have to use that technique.' Taking a knee in front of Gohan and placing his hands on the ground. "I just have one thing to say…Magnetic Devastation Wave 100x." Gohan suddenly feeling pulls towards Earth at 100x gravity.
"I see. 100x gravity. Vegeta and I train at this for warm up. Interesting technique being able to shift small area of gravity but this is your end then." Gohan raising up a hand preparing to strike down Mui-Mui who is looking on with dread.
"No! Magnetic Devastation Wave 300x!" Mui-Mui crying out in a last ditch attempt to save his life. Gohan then collapsing to the ground in front of Mui-Mui. "Mercy ma suit you, but it won't save you from me." Mui-Mui then creating a clone of himself that crawls out of his back. The clone now stepping towards Gohan with a devilish grin. "Good-bye Super Saiyan." Mui-Mui blasting Gohan with an immense energy wave.
As the dust clears Gohan is still on the ground trying to hold himself up with an energy shield protecting him from the blast. 'I gotta think of something to get out of here.' Gohan panting, slowly warring down from the several minutes of holding up his shield in 300x gravity. 'That's it!' Gohan refocusing his energy trying to pick out a single energy source. 'Come on Vegeta I need to lock on to your energy.' Mui-Mui's clone continuing his assault on Gohan.
"Gohan! He's being held down by some cheap trick." Vegeta's frustration continuing to grow.
"You won't be helping your friend. I don't care if he is a Saiyan or not. You won't get passed me." Zuccha and Vegeta trading blows without hesitation.
'Trunks, Bulma, Gohan they all need me to be stronger. I can't let them down. I… I won't let them down.' Vegeta suddenly screaming out. "NO MORE GAMES! I END THIS NOW!" Bursting into a Super Saiyan 2 throwing Zuccha back a short distance and giving Gohan the opportunity he needs.
'That's it! Now!' Gohan using the Instant Transmission without needing his fingers to focus his energy just as Goku taught him. Gohan then appearing right behind Vegeta clearly looking tired, but grateful. "Thanks, Vegeta. I wasn't sure how to get out of that strange technique without Instant Transmission. I'm going to end this now." Gohan bursting towards the pair of Mui-Muis who look completely baffled as to what just happened.
"Sorry to disappoint, but this ends now!" Gohan yelling while closing in on the alien. Gohan suddenly exploding his energy and hitting Mui-Mui and his clone each so hard he breaks the rib cage of each. Then teleporting behind the pair and preforming a swift double karate chop to the back of the neck of each causing them both to collapse. "You'll survive, but you won't be moving for a while. That was your third vertebrae that I dislocated. Stay down." Gohan looking at himself. 'I did it. This energy I feel is exactly like being in a Super Saiyan state, but I didn't transform.'
Gohan's eyes darting into the sky watching Vegeta and Zuccha continuing their fight. "Vegeta, do you want me to step in?"
"Stay out of this Gohan! This is my fight!" Vegeta beginning to shift the tide of his battle putting Zuccha on the ropes.
Meanwhile Piccolo continues his own fight with Bujin while his partner, Bido, stands in waiting.
'Maybe I should signal the others to come in. This guy might just be toying with me.' Piccolo looking a little banged up but still wanting to fight.
"Alright. I've had enough games. I am going to end this now." Bujin swiftly dashing back and then throwing up his hands in front of him aimed at Piccolo. "Let's see you handle this." Bujin then lauching threaded energy from his fingertips. "Psycho-thread."
Piccolo dashing to the right to get out of the way while thinking to himself. 'That was too close.' Suddenly the energy thread changing direction without Piccolo noticing and wrapping themselves around Piccolo. "What?!"
"Hahaha. You're trapped. You won't be moving anytime soon. The more you struggle the tighter they become and the more energy you output the more they drain from you. It's over." Bujin laughing menacingly.
'If I can't get out of this then it's time.' Piccolo releasing an energy ball and launching it into the sky behind him with the little bit of movement he still has. "Now!" Piccolo knowing the signal will send in the first wave of back up as in comes Krillin and Android 18 to help.
"Destructo Disc!" Krill launching a swift Kienzan to cut the near invisible threads holding Piccolo. Android 18 then blasting an energy wave directly at Bujin trying to catch him off guard.
"More of them. Time to stop playing games. We need to end this." Bido stepping forward. "I'll take the bald one." Bido dashing forward.
"I don't think so." Piccolo suddenly appearing between Bido and Krillin. "I will be your opponent." Smirking and feeling ready to get serious.
"Piccolo, don't worry about this other guy, 18 and I will take care of him." Krillin and 18 each dashing in to launch a counter-attack against Bujin.
"A Namekian stand against me?" Bido laughing. "So quick to die." Then the two begin engaging in an intense exchange of punches.
"I think you underestimate me." Piccolo catching a wild punch. "The Namekians are a stronger race than you would believe."
"Shut up!" Bido getting frustrated begins raising his power in the hand-to-hand combat with Piccolo. The two beginning to cause gusts of wind from the speed of their colliding fists. Bido and Piccolo slowly increasing the speed of their fight.
'Holy cow… Piccolo is fighting so fast I can't even see his fists moving and here I thought Gohan was fast.' Krillin thinking to himself beginning to realize just how much stronger Piccolo has gotten. "Krillin, let's take this guy!" 18 snapping Krillin back to focus and the two launch a coordinated counter-attack. The husband and wife begin attacking Bujin from multiple sides simultaneously.
'These two are getting really annoying. I guess I'll have to show my next trick.' Bujin focusing his ki. 'They will never see this coming.' Suddenly Bujin uses telekinetic powers to launch boulders out of the ground at 18 and Krillin.
"18 look out!" Krillin sending a quick placed ki blast by 18 to destroy the boulder coming from behind her. "Where the heck did that come from?"
"This is where our fight takes a turn. Prepare yourselves." Bujin smiling as he starts forcing the ground to shift below 18 and Krillin. The pair quickly take to the sky to avoid the shifting ground below.
"How is he doing this?" 18 then smiling and holding a hand out. "Whatever, his tricks won't matter anymore." 18 charging up and blasting several ki blasts down at their target. Bujin responses by using the shifting terrain to block the incoming blasts.
"You two are fools!" Bujin then infusing his telekinetic powers and ki with his turban that he uses as if it was an extended arm to try reaching Krillin and 18. "My powers are unlike anything you've ever faced before. This turban I wear while infused with my energy cannot be cut!" Bujin catching Krillin's foot in mid-air.
"Destructo Disc!" Krillin throwing a full force disc at the turban which it just bounces off. "What!?" Krillin freaking out internally about the failure of his most powerful technique.
'This guy really is a fool. My powers prevents any energy based attack having any effect. It's the perfect counter to these fools who don't carry any real kind of weapons.' Bujin slowly pulling Krillin down to his trap below.
How will our Z-Fighters fair against these powers possessed by Bojack and his henchmen? Will they be able to stand up against this force and win, or will the Earth's mightiest warriors fall? Our heroes continue their face off against their strongest challenge yet on the next episode of Dragon Ball Nu.
