Part II.
Onward.
HAH!
Yusuke's and Ann's echoed shouts resonated through the area as they attacked Beerus from both sides. However, the God of Destruction simply held out both hands just as it seemed both Saiyan's were about to land a hit on him, and effectively blocked both of their punches, unfazed.
Beerus quickly grabbed ahold of Ann's throat, causing her to gasp for air. But a moment later he easily threw her down at the ocean, emitting a large crash that shook the ground.
"Ann!" Yusuke called out, and growled when he swiftly tried punching Beerus with his free hand, but it was to no avail as the God grabbed his wrist, holding him in place.
"Despite what others could say, Demigra was a still a god the moment he had absorbed that bird that controls time. You were able to beat him when he still had that status, and this is all you are capable of?!" Beerus said, and kneed the male Saiyan in the stomach, keeling him over and coughed out saliva. "If that's the case, then Demigra was a weak god! A fluke!"
Beerus grabbed Yusuke's face, and plummeted him down to the sandy ground, quaking the area. The male Saiyan let out a muffled cry as his back collided on the ground, despite all the sand around them.
"Perhaps you are as well! A fluke! The Hero that saved history… what a joke!" Beerus insulted with a shout.
The water behind them exploded, and revealed Ann roaring as she charged at the God with a fist ready, but as she punched, she hit empty air and her feet skidded on the sand, pushing the grains away. The next thing she knew was her right arm she punched with being grabbed and was forcefully twisted behind her, and winced from the sudden move as Beerus held her limb. Ann went to backhand her opponent but was stopped also as the God held her arms in place with her struggling to break free.
"It's bold of you to accept the challenge of facing me, admirable even. But don't you think you're in way over your head?" Beerus questioned.
"Urk…! Let me go!" Ann demanded, struggling more.
Beerus scoffed and let go of her left arm, but instead tightly gripped her right shoulder, tightened the hold on her right arm and pulled her back as he attacked her back with his knee. In an instant, Ann significantly widened her eyes.
Two things happened at that moment, as Ann felt a shift in her arm and shoulders was the first thing. The second unfortunate thing to happen next is her ear shrieking scream of pain as Beerus had dislocated her shoulder.
"A-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH! ...AH!" Ann shut her eyes closed from the shock, and collapsed on her knees, gritting her teeth but yelped more in pain as Beerus still held her right arm. Several Fairy Tail members watching unconsciously took a step back from her loud, painful scream, and winced as all that had occurred had happened in a span of just half a minute from what little they could see.
'Damn it!' Yusuke, quickly recovering from his forced fall but not quick enough to help Ann, rapidly held up his hand to fire off a Ki blast. But just before he fired it off, he saw Beerus casually positioning his free hand towards his, and an explosion was set off where all three were at.
From the smoke, Yusuke came out of it with Ann in his arms, and he skidded back on the grass. The dust quickly settled to reveal Beerus stoically having his hands behind him, unscathed.
"Stay still." The male Saiyan chided.
"It fucking hurts…! AAH!" The female Saiyan cursed, now on her knees and screamed as Yusuke tugged on her limp right arm.
"Bear with me!" He shouted.
"Fuck you! AGH! Damnit!" She hollered, and screamed once as he positioned her arm in a specific way before letting out another scream when she felt her bones were put back in place, albeit forcefully from the male Saiyan. Ann panted as she placed her hands on the ground, and quickly but carefully rotated her right arm and shoulder.
"Better?"
"Just a bit…" Ann said in relief, and stood up, panting a bit.
"... let me go in alone first." Yusuke stated, walking past her.
"And have me watch?" Ann said, insulted at his suggestion while still holding her arm.
"Yeah, have you watch." He retorted, looking back at her with a hard gaze that made her listen. "I've fought against him before, you haven't. Even if he and Whis allowed us to win there was still some merit in fighting against them."
"... it's not going to be the same."
"No, maybe not. But still worth a shot." Yusuke said, and erupted his golden aura with blue static coursing around him again. He saw Beerus smirk and held out his arms to the side, indicating he was ready, if he wasn't to begin with.
Yusuke's aura formed spherical before it gradually expanded around him and faded away. Every few moments, his body glowed before the expansion of his power was seen again.
'Ah… not a bad tactic…' Whis thought with a casual smile.
'Hm, let's see if it actually works.' Beerus went ahead and taunted with gesturing two fingers towards the male Saiyan.
From the Fairy Tail member's perspective, Yusuke instantly disappeared from their sights, and a loud collision was heard from where Beerus stood and they looked to see the Deity block a sledgehammer from the Saiyan above him with only one of his arms, while still looking in front of him. It was that one moment they were able to clearly see before they both instantly fazed away. Not a moment later, they heard more collisions from the sea, and saw multiple shockwaves in the air.
"It was good while it lasted, but now we can't see anything again." Gray said.
"What about you?" Lucy asked, looking at Erza next to her
"Just… barely…" Erza blinked, only being able to see flashes of their images.
"Big Sis?" Lisanna questioned next, and she was answered with her older sister shakng her head.
"They're too fast for me to keep up…" Mirajane said, and seeing the same thing as Erza, she could could see flashes of them moving around in the air every now and then.
"Perhaps I can help with that." Whis had come up to the Fairy Tail members where some looked at him with wonder while others were watching the ongoing visible shockwaves in the middle of the air. The Angel took his staff and tapped it on the ground as it chimed. The orb on the top of his stave glowed for a moment before a projection came out of it, and emitted a spherical screen where everyone saw Yusuke and Beerus collide their fists against each other which at the same time, another shockwave happened.
There wasn't any change to the background as it was simply the blue sky and clouds, but what was shown next was Beerus kicking Yusuke, aiming for his head. The Saiyan was able to block with both of his arms to the side while greatly gritting his teeth. At the same time, they heard a shockwave boom in the area.
The male Saiyan quickly tried to stab the God with a punch to his face, but Beerus easily evaded by moving his body away, and took the opportunity to effectively punch the Saiyan in the face, skidding Yusuke back in the air with clenched teeth. And as Beerus punched him, another shockwave was heard at the same time.
They stared off for a moment before they charged at one another with Beerus quickly getting the first hit in, punching Yusuke in the gut and causing him to stagger before the Saiyan pulled back an arm to swing at Beerus, which the God simply evaded and began a barrage of attacks with punches and kicks towards the Patroller. With great difficulty, Yusuke began doing his best to block and dodge the Deity's heavy blows, and was successful in some of them but a majority of Beerus' attacks went through with ease.
For the first time ever, the Fairy Tail members could effectively and clearly see the way Yusuke fought in detail. The times that he had battled, it was only ever split images of himself and his enemies in the middle of the air. The times other than that where he fought against smaller opponents, he easily brought them down in a hit or two. Against Beerus however, they can see the immense focus and concentration etched on his face as he used the best of his abilities to fight against the God of Destruction.
There was a moment when Yusuke had his arms crossed in front of him as Beerus punched him, skidding the Saiyan back before he quickly shouted as his golden aura came to life once more, and dashed towards Beerus with a flurry of attacks himself. While he has shown his side defensively, the way he attacks was also clearly seen by the guild members. The way he positioned his body, arms, and legs like an experienced martial artist as he continuously attacked Beerus, but at the same time, he was defending himself as the Deity didn't let up any of his attacks either.
Another golden glow came from male Time Patroller as it expanded outwards before fading away. Beerus growled as he went in for another punch, coming close to the Saiyan's face, but just at the last moment where he would seemingly get another hit in, Yusuke managed to dodge it in time.
"HAH"! Yusuke shouted as he went straight in with a punch, but was stopped short as Beerus blocked it with a hand. He saw the God snarling, and tossed him down towards the ocean. The throw wasn't strong enough for the Saiyan be completely submerged, and he stopped just above the water as it was pushed away by his energy. With the both of them staring off at each other again, another glow was emitted from Yusuke before it faded away.
"I'm surprised Lord Beerus isn't actually playing around…" Marissa commented, looking towards the ocean and sky where both fighters were at before looking back at Whis' staff projection.
"Of course. Especially with Lord Beerus declaring that a single scratch from them will cause him to lose. But that isn't entirely the case at all." Whis said, catching the Earthling and some of the Fairy Tail member's attention. "What Lord Beerus says is true, Yusuke has defeated Demigra, a god at his time of end against a mortal. Regardless, Lord Beerus acknowledges that and his strength. Yusuke is much stronger when Lord Beerus first fought against Goku and Vegeta back on Earth, and has only gotten stronger the last time they fought. Because of that, he isn't pulling any of his attacks at the moment. But that does not mean he's going full power."
"He… he isn't…?" Juvia shakily said.
"If Yusuke is already going at full power himself, then…" Freed didn't finish, but some that had listened knew what he was going to say next.
"He'll pull through, it's just one scratch. That can't be hard!" Natsu said, his hands clenching as he looked at the projection.
"I want to agree with you Natsu, but…" Lucy looked at the projection as well, and observed Yusuke as he was seen slightly panting. "They just started fighting and Yusuke already looks like he took so much damage. Not to mention what happened with Ann just now…"
Another golden glow emitted off of Yusuke before it disappeared around him.
"Yusuke's been lighting up for awhile now… what did he do?" Gray asked.
"It acts like a radar for him." Whis answered, and began explaining. "With his energy, he can pinpoint whoever is in his surroundings. If Yusuke cannot sense Lord Beerus, then it looks like the next best thing for him is to track him himself. It seems to be working as well, as Yusuke has been doing his best to fend him off."
Beerus was seen descending down to Yusuke's level, who was just floating above the water. While the God simply had his arms to his sides, the Saiyan took a stance, ready to either defend or attack.
'Just a little longer… ' The male Saiyan thought, sweat dripping down his face.
"What's wrong? You haven't even landed a hit on me yet. You don't want this planet to be destroyed, do you?" Beerus taunted.
"Tch… asshole…" Yusuke muttered in annoyance, and widened his eyes when he saw Beerus disappear.
The golden glow emitted around him again and he quickly ducked forward to avoid a sidekick from the Deity. Yusuke glanced back and spotted him, and just as Beerus' leg past his head, the Saiyan positioned a hand towards the God, closing the gap in between his fingers. But just as his hand glowed in his energy, a tail wrapped around his wrist, surprising him.
"You won't get me with that." Beerus said, and easily pulled the Saiyan with his tail so that he punched Yusuke in the face, causing him to crash and slide from the sand to the grass.
"Agh! Damn it…!" He gritted his teeth as he stood up, spitting out some sand that got into his mouth.
"Let me in on this now." Ann said, walking up to him on the grassy area.
"Think you can keep up?" Yusuke said, wiping his mouth with his arm.
"You underestimate me too much… and so will he." The Female Saiyan said, and just like what Yusuke did before, a glow began emitting around her before it gradually expanded and disappeared.
"Any openings you see, take it at that moment. Whatever it takes."
"Don't have to tell me twice."
Both Saiyan's took their stances they've adopted from their mentors, and readied themselves against the God of Destruction who was simply floating just above the water.
Beerus smirked, and it was all the Saiyan's needed to charge at him full speed. The God began flying backwards and up into the air as both Patrollers followed him and fired off a Ki blast. Beerus extended a hand down to fire off a Ki blast of his own, intercepting the Saiyan's as it resulted in an explosion in the air. From the plumes, Ann came out with a swipe of her arm ready, and did what was expected as she attacked Beerus. The God easily caught her arm, but made a small noise as he sensed the male Saiyan appearing behind him with a punch already in swing. Moving his hand up, Beerus caught Yusuke's fist, spun him and Ann around once before throwing them away from each other.
Yusuke and Ann flipped upright in the air with ease after being thrown, and with a shout from both of them, they launched themselves once more towards Beerus. As they both neared the Deity once more with punches ready, Beerus moved his head back to dodge Ann's, and then ducked to evade Yusuke's. Both Saiyan's immediately recollected themselves and began attacking Beerus once more, repeatedly with a barrage of blows.
With another surprise to the Fairy Tail members, they noticed right away that Beerus had stopped dodging, but instead moved backwards in the air while continuously moving both his arms to block both Saiyan's attacks. None of Yusuke's or Ann's attacks had gone past it, and every punch and kick they were dealing kept getting blocked.
"The both of them aren't getting through at all…!" Levy said in surprise, closely observing the fight.
"They weren't exaggerating… Yusuke and Ann are fighting they're all and yet… they've hardly touched him." Evergreen commented.
"If this keeps up… Earthland's going to be-" Jet began saying but was immediately interrupted.
"Shut up! Do you really think Yusuke and Ann is going to let that happen?! That's not manly at all, and the both of them will definitely make it through this!" Elfman shouted, and couldn't help but look back at the projection, both Saiyan's still trying to get past Beerus' hands. Elfman clenched both of his fists, and gritted his teeth. 'Yusuke! You have to win! Are you going to let Big Sis down?!'
Constant explosions throughout the air were in sync with Yusuke's and Ann's blows towards the God. Beerus continued moving backwards in the air, but also moved around in a circular motion above the sea so that they weren't too far away from the shore.
'I suppose it's about time for my turn.' Beerus thought, and quickly ducked from both Saiyan's arms. Not a moment later, he punched Yusuke in the face away from them.
"Gah!"
"Tarok!" Ann called out, looking behind her and gasped as she saw Beerus suddenly appeared behind the male Saiyan, and kicked him into the ocean with no hesitation. "Bastard!"
Ann shouted as she charged in, and just as she punched, Beerus caught her wrist, and she struggled to break free.
"Damn it!" Ann cursed.
"You're rather persistent, I'll give you that. But do you really think you can match up to him?" Beerus taunted.
"Tch…!" She growled and quickly extended her finger to fire off a beam, to which the Deity simply tilted his head to the side to avoid it.
"Petty." Was all Beerus said before he grabbed the female Saiyan by her neck, causing her to gasp and choke, and slammed her down into the ocean.
Beerus didn't stop at the surface, and continued holding down Ann deeper into the water until she was met with the ocean floor against her back. Some of her breath was forced out from the impact, and she continued struggling against his hold. Trying to think quickly, she pressed a hand against the floor and let out her energy.
The cracks of the ocean floor around both of them glowed from Ann's power, and a moment later the surface underneath them was destroyed. Amidst the rubble, Ann felt her throat had been freed, and needing air, she began flying upwards in the water. However, she felt her ankle being gripped, and snapped her head down to see Beerus holding her in the middle of the water.
The Fairy Tail members saw her gritting her teeth as she tried moving away from the Deity, but didn't budge. With a smirk from Beerus, he threw her down onto the ocean surface once more, and the audience saw the female Saiyan force her mouth open, air bubbles escaping from her.
"She's going to run out of air…!" Lucy exclaimed.
"Ann… come on…!" Levy quietly said.
A Ki blast was seen passing in between Ann and Beerus, making the latter jump away. Yusuke was seen speeding by with a kick while moving sideways, making Beerus move away further. The male Saiyan leaped from a nearby rocky surface, grabbed Ann by her waist and began making their way up to the top of the water for air.
Unfortunately, it wasn't long before Beerus appeared above them again, and sped down towards both of the Saiyan's with a kick. Thinking quickly, Yusuke pushed Ann away from him, and took the full brunt of the God's attack as they both descended into the waters again. Ann felt a shockwave underneath her, however she continued ascending towards the water, needing air.
"HAH…" Ann took a deep breath of wanted air into her lungs, and breathed heavily while keeping herself afloat in the water.
Multiple shockwaves were felt beneath the waters before a large quake occurred next. Ann quickly jumped out of the sea to look underneath, only to find that the water beneath her was rapidly splitting apart. A large circular opening expanded right in the middle of the ocean, revealing both the male Saiyan panting and Beerus floating upwards while the God still held a hard look towards him, unfazed and unscratched.
"HAAAH!" Yusuke roared upwards as his golden aura raged around him with constant blue sparks flickering constantly. He and Beerus phased out from the air as constant rapid barrages in the air were filled once again.
As Yusuke punched, so did Beerus, meeting his fist with his exactly. If the Saiyan attacked with his elbow, so did the Deity. Then a kick from his leg, and as well as his knee. Sparks erupted with each collision, and the Patroller growled as he saw a grin etched on Beerus' features.
'He's just toying with me…!' Yusuke irely thought, and leaped backwards, panting.
The ocean had now formed back into one, but there was a noticeable difference of how it had lowered as more of the beach and wet sand was exposed than it was before.
Another glow was emitted off of Yusuke and Ann before it faded away after expanding around them.
'Beerus can easily adjust himself and outmatch us… we can still keep tracking him with our energy, but…' Ann looked at her arms as another glow was emitted off of her. 'That won't matter if we can't react fast enough to counter him…'
'This isn't working… we need to try something else… but what… with what against him?' Yusuke thought as he clenched his fist, scrunching up his face.
"What's wrong, Saiyans? It's not a bad idea using your Ki to locate where I would be at, but what good is that if I'm too fast? Surely you have something else." Beerus called out, his grin still intact that caused anger to well up within Yusuke and Ann.
'... Ki attacks won't phase him at all. He can just cancel it out.' Ann thought.
'... we never practiced in keeping our energies within ourselves while fighting. Even then… would it even make a difference? That's what we need Whis to help us with…' Yusuke thought with narrowed eyes, and gritted his teeth. 'The most possible way now is to keep on fighting him… and adjust.'
"Well, if you don't have anything, then I'm sure this will make you do something." Beerus said, and clapped his hands together in front of him. Another familiar hum was emitted within them, and he slowly pulled them apart before quickly spreading out his arms to his side. As he did so, a large Cataclysmic Orb appeared in front of him that was as big as a wrecking ball, and he held out his right arm above his head as the orb began orbiting around his limb.
"Oh, shit…" Yusuke silently cursed, eyes shaking as sweat dripped down his face.
"Damn it all…! We can't let it linger around in this space. It could destroy everything around us…!" Ann muttered with widened, shaking eyes.
As Beerus' smirked, aura erupted around the Saiyan's again. Yusuke quickly held out his arms in front of him, and a moderate sized blue orb of Ki appeared and radiated in front of him while Ann spreaded out her arms to her side before placing them on the left side of her body, bright golden yellow Ki appearing in her front of her hands.
"Have at it then… RARGH!" Beerus leaped back in the air and without wasting another second, he threw the large Cataclysmic Orb down towards the Saiyan's.
BIG BANG KAMEHAMEHA…!
FINAL GALICK FLASH…!
Yusuke's and Ann's attack erupted as brilliant blue and gold Ki was shot out from them, respectively. In just a matter of moments, both sides attacks met one another, resulting in a large shockwave from the collision.
Visible waves of power can be seen between the struggle of the Ki waves and the orb, the ocean underneath their power ran away violently, forming a crater of water. Large winds were produced traveled a large distance away from them, large enough to scare away clouds above them. The solid ground underneath them and the waters quaked violently from their raw power, and it caused most of the Fairy Tail members to fall down.
"A-Ah…!"
"T-This feels even more dangerous than before…!"
There was another force that everyone felt, with some of them being knocked back further, and they all looked to see Beerus' orb coming closer and closer, while both of the Saiyan's attacks seemed to be having little effect against it.
"Tarok…!" Ann struggled to say, pouring more of her energy into her attack to fight against Beerus'. She slowly looked at him with gritted teeth, her hair and ponytail moving wildly against the winds. "... we have the Dragonballs…!"
The mention of the mystic orbs caught some of his attention, as Yusuke continued keeping up his attack while greatly gritting his teeth, and he eyed to the side to look at the female Saiyan.
"You know we can't hold back at all…! Not against him!" Ann said, and they both staggered back by a sudden force against them as they both saw the Deity's orb come closer towards them. "We can't worry about the environment and everyone around us in the meantime, just Beerus! If we can solely focus on him and scratch him… then we can revert everything back how it was in the beginning!"
"But if we use them… HAH!" Yusuke shouted, releasing even more Ki.
"HAH!" A burst of energy came forth from Ann as well, and both of their attacks pushed back Beerus' away from them, but not enough that the clash met in the middle between them. "They'll scatter… I know! But we have three wishes! We can make them count!"
'Three wishes… we can use one to get a radar… agh…!' He shut his eyes for a moment to think before opening them up again, clenching his teeth further. "AAAAGHH!"
A sudden, burst of power welled up within the male Saiyan as he shouted. Part of the beach, trees and terrain behind him all tore apart from his power with large rubble flying in the air, breaking away as it did so. The struggle began, seemingly like a miracle, to go in the Saiyan's favor that took Beerus aback by a bit.
Not wasting a moment, Ann shouted and brought even more of her power, and the struggle began changing as the clash of both sides went closer to Beerus' side. The God made a small grunt, and stopped it from coming further. With some effort, Beerus pushed back, as there was now equal distance between him and the Patrollers where the middle of the clash was.
'Not bad, however…' Beerus narrowed his eyes, and all of a sudden a large explosion occurred in the middle of the clash.
The smoke covered a very large area that covered both sides, reaching outwards to the Fairy Tail members and even covering the guildhall. But not a second later did the smoke vanish from violent winds, and what everybody was in between the Saiyan's and the Deity was a small, very condensed, small orb of Ki that crackled violently with static. The visible shockwaves continued to be emitted, more potent than before, and mostly everyone felt uneasy from the sheer power.
Yusuke and Ann were forced down to the beach, still keeping up their energies to push back the orb of Ki. Dry sand were blown away with part of the wet sand breaking down underneath them, and they both let out an echoed shout as they forced the orb back towards Beerus.
"This is rather nostalgic from the time I fought against Goku. But do you two really think you match up with him?!" Beerus shouted, and the orb was brought down once more, more easily than both Saiyan's as it rushed towards the ground.
"Damn it…!" Ann cursed, and grunted as she brought out more energy, on the brink of her limit.
"AGGGGHHHH!" Yusuke roared as veins popped out of his arms and forehead, and it seemed to halt the movement of the orb before a dense glow came upon it, and the visible shockwaves became more prominent.
'Hmm, not good…' Whis cleared out the projection from his staff and tapped it on the ground. All of a sudden, a large, aqua green colored dome encircled himself and the Fairy Tail members observing, now protecting them. "Everyone, please be calm. This will shield all of you from any impact that is about to happen."
"S-Shield us from what…?" Lucy worriedly ask.
"No…!" Marissa snapped her eyes back to both of the Saiyan's with fear.
Before anything else could happen, a very large, loud, and bright explosion occurred that caught everyone's attention next, causing most of them to shield their eyes. They all felt large quaking that forced some of them to be knocked down once more.
After a very long minute, the shaking slowly died down, and the bright light has now dimmed down. With some of the members opening their eyes they saw the plumes of smoke just clearing away. Looking at their surroundings, they couldn't help but make sounds of surprise with their gasps as the grass terrain was now gone, the sandy beach was all but destroyed with a very large crater in place of it, the ocean water pooling in by the second. From some of their peripherals, the Fairy Tail guildhall, sadly, has taken damage as well as over half of its structure had been obliterated from the explosion.
But in the middle of all the destruction, were two tired Super Saiyan's with their arms still up in the air, panting heavily. The smoke is all has all but receded at this point, and as the golden aura from both Yusuke and Ann dissipated, they both dropped their arms to the side, and collapsed forward on the ground while they were forced back into their base form.
The shield that Whis had brought up now dropped out of existence, and as the Fairy Tail members began shouting at the Saiyan Patrollers, Beerus himself had now descended in front of their bodies, completely unscathed to the eyes of disbelief from the audience.
"A pity, It seems that the both of you couldn't keep your end of the deal." Beerus said, and extended a hand forward while narrowing his eyes. "What a waste of time…"
'Move… damn it, move…!' Yusuke tiredly thought as, with clenched eyes and fists, and gritted teeth, he tried getting up.
Ann on the other hand, had managed to get up, only on her elbows while she painfully had her head down with closed eyes and felt her hair flowing down her as her ponytail had now come undone.
"Tarok… we have to get up…!" Ann struggled to say.
"I-I'm… trying…!" He managed to say, and had his hands on the ground, trying to lift himself up.
"Don't bother. The both of you are done." Beerus stated as he loomed over both Saiyan's. However, he made a small noise as he looked up in the air.
A gasp came from Ann, and she also looked up in the air to see flames.
"Get away from them!" Natsu bellowed out from above, and Happy let him go as he began descending down.
"Hoh?" Beerus let out a smirk.
FIRE DRAGON'S IRON FIST!
As Natsu slammed his fist down on the ground, Beerus phased away from where he stood. Seeing and snarling that he had hit nothing, the Dragonslayer quickly turned around to the two Saiyan's.
"Are you two alright?!" Natsu exclaimed.
"You idiot! Get the hell away from here!" Ann answered hastily.
"She's right Natsu, it's not safe here…!" Yusuke said.
"Like you're the one to talk! C'mon!" As Natsu was about to help them get up, Happy shouted from above.
"Natsu! Behind you!" The blue Exceed called out.
Before Natsu could react, Ann was fast enough to grab his ankle and pull him, causing the Dragonslayer to crash face down on the ground. Just as he did so, he narrowly evaded a swipe from a hand that came from behind him.
"Gah! What the hell was that for!" Natsu exclaimed as he looked at the female Saiyan.
"Shut up! If I hadn't done that you would've been in even more pain a few hundred meters away from us!" Ann retorted, and looked ahead of him that prompted him to do so as well. And as he did, he widened his eyes as he saw the looming sight of the God of Destruction above them.
"Hmph. It seems he wasn't the only one." Beerus said as he looked past the three on the ground.
With the Deity not paying them any mind currently, all three looked back as well to see several Fairy Tail members coming at them.
"No! Stay back!" Yusuke yelled out.
"Argh! Damn it!" Ann cursed, now struggling to support herself on her knees.
"Alright!" Natsu shouted, and ignited his foot on fire.
FIRE DRAGON'S CLAW!
The Fire Dragonslayer flipped around and swung his leg up that was currently ablaze towards Beerus. The God simply stepped backwards from his attack, and continued observing the mage.
"I'm not done yet!" Natsu's cheek puffed up as he began inhaling.
FIRE DRAGON'S ROAR!
A large plume of flames spewed out of Natsu's mouth as a large cloud of fire seemed to engulf the Deity.
"Yusuke!" Erza called out, and crouched down next to him with Mirajane arriving shortly after.
"What are you all doing here…?!" Yusuke scolded, feeling two pairs of hands grab his arms.
"We couldn't take it anymore! Everything happened so quickly but we just can't stand still!" He heard Mirajane's voice, and shakily looked up to see tears at the corner of her eyes as she tried supporting him. "Especially me…!"
"Don't be ignorant! Beerus isn't someone you can just face on a whim!" Ann scolded while Lucy and Wendy arrived to support her up.
"Even so… even so! There's no way we can just stand around and do nothing! If this guy is threatening to destroy our home, then we're going to fight to protect it!" Natsu shouted.
"You're not going to be able to convince us out of this one you guys. We've stood and watched behind you for so long that I'm getting tired of it. It doesn't matter who's stronger but Natsu's right. Earthland is our home too, and I'll fight to protect it!" Gray said, walking up next to the downed Saiyans as he placed his right fist to the palm of his left hand.
As Gray prepared himself, Yusuke and Ann also saw a few others arriving to where they were at. They both looked at the mages, looking ahead at the fire that was still present with a hard, determined look on their features. They felt Marissa coming up, and glanced behind them to see the Earthling arriving as well.
"I couldn't stop them, how could I?" Marissa sheepishly said.
Yusuke looked back once more at the Fairy Tail mages, and quietly sighed to himself as he looked down. '... she's right… how could we convince them at this point…?'
The flames are blown away, revealing Beerus still unscathed as he was seen scratching the back of his head, now seeing a group of the wizards standing around both Saiyan Patrollers that were still on the ground. He sighed as he looked over to Whis, who was still all the way in the back with several other Fairy Tail members that had decided not to act.
"Whis! You didn't stop them!" Beerus yelled.
"Ohoho! Apologies Lord Beerus, but it seems that young man over there with pink hair is quite charismatic! I couldn't possibly force them to stay back after the speech he gave over here." Whis called out, and continued projecting the ongoing battle from his staff.
"Hmph." Beerus walked a few steps forward, causing the mages to be on guard.
"Don't pay them any mind Beerus! You're fighting us!" Yusuke shouted.
"It's only natural that they want to fight to protect. It's their instinct." Beerus said, stopping just in front of the members. He let his arms drop to the side after having them behind his back, and smirked. "Very well, I'll humor all of you. Try and touch me."
At that moment, several had launched attacks that are mid-to-long range.
Gray threw his arms in front of them, his Ice-Make magic being released.
ICE-MAKE LANCE!
Next to him, Juvia maneuvered her arms in a swiping up motion.
WATER SLICER!
From the other side, Gajeel had his cheeks puffed up, inhaling all that he could until he let it all out.
IRON DRAGON'S ROAR!
"Wendy, take care of them for now. Mira, let's go." Erza announced, and stood up.
"Right." Mirajane nodded, and stood up as well.
"Stop, both of you!" Yusuke called out, but winced as his body was still tired from exerting so much Ki.
"Yusuke, everyone else is right. You have been fighting for us all this time while we only watched. This time, we need to do something now." Mirajane said, looking back at him sternly.
"You're both going to get hurt, I don't want that to happen!"
"Then how do you think we feel?!" Erza snapped her head around, looking at the male Saiyan with a look that had a mixture of frustration and sadness. "Mirajane is right, I can't just stand around and watch you get hurt any longer!"
Taken by surprise, Yusuke was left unable to talk back as he watched both Erza and Mirajane beginning to glow from their respective magics. As the female knight requipped into her Black Wing Armor and the she-demon transforming into her Satan Soul form, both woman charged ahead.
As Yusuke watched, both he and Ann began feeling a tingle near them, and looked to see Wendy with her arms out near both of them, using her healing spell.
"Wendy… that's not going to-" The male Saiyan began saying.
"Please be quiet, Yusuke…" Wendy interrupted, and both Yusuke and Ann blinked to see the petite girl trembling with a sad look in her eyes. "Even if it's just a little bit… "
"... yeah, you're doing fine Wendy. A little bit of healing will help." Ann said, and gave a small glare towards.
With guilt washing him, Yusuke silently looked ahead nervously.
As Gray, Juvia, and Gajeel released their magic, their attacks reached Beerus, that is until he let out a large force of his Ki that blew all the magic away from him. It only lasted for a moment, and as it subsided he saw several others charging at him.
Natsu was seen leading in front of everyone else charging in with his fist already ablazed.
FIRE DRAGON'S IRON FIST!
Elfman's body began changing as his human form began to change into a larger, monstrous form and followed just behind Natsu.
TAKE OVER: BEAST SOUL!
Just above the two were Erza and Mirajane. Catching Beerus' attention, he noticed them being coated in an aura of heightened Ki, and he watched as Erza's blade began glowing, and Mirajane's gauntlets beginning to be covered in magic.
Natsu dashed forward with a swing of his fiery fist towards the Deity, but Beerus simply moved to the side, completely evading him. The Dragonslayer turned around, and with his other fist set ablazed, he continued attacking Beerus, trying to land a hit.
A shadow loomed over the both of them, and just as Natsu went for another punch, it was caught by Beerus with one hand. Then, with his other hand, the God lifted it up over his head, and caught Elfman's hands that were held together that were to be slammed into him. Gripping his hands more tightly, Beerus threw Natsu away from him and lifted up Elfman in the air, slamming him down on the ground in front of him.
Off to the left side, Erza phased in, and grunted loudly as she was already side swinging her sword at Beerus. There was a clanging sound, and she gasped as she saw him holding the blade itself with his bare left hand.
At the same time, to the right of Beerus, Mirajane arrived with her leg already in the motion to swing at the God, but was stopped short he caught her ankle and arms length away from him.
"You two are different, I can tell. But it won't be enough." Beerus said, and threw Erza and Mirajane forward, past Elfman's downed body.
Both woman flipped upright, and flew just above the destroyed ground with a hard look towards Beerus.
"That doesn't mean we can't try!" Erza announced, and her body began glowing.
"That's right, Earthland is our home. We won't let it get destroyed!" Mirajane shouted, and a dark purple but translucent aura surrounded her.
As Beerus observed ahead, he jumped up a few feet to avoid being grabbed by Elfman below him. Not looking, the Deity kicked the male Strauss away from him as he yelled out in pain. Just as Beerus did so, Erza dashed in, now in her Flight Armor as she went to pierce the Deity with her weapon in hand. Unfortunately, just like how it was before, Beerus simply turned his body sideways and evaded the redhead's attack as she passed by him. Above the God, he looked up to see the she-demon appear with her hands placed at the left side of her body, a swirling dark orb of magic infused with Ki. Letting out a shout, Mirajane thrusted her hands down at Beerus, releasing the condensed magic towards him.
The dark magic engulfed the area around the Deity that resulted in a big explosion. Several mages nearby watched in anticipation of the results. However, as the dust cleared, an unscratched Beerus was revealed to be standing exactly where he was at. The ground around him was destroyed, except from where he was standing, which was the ground itself, but floating.
"Not sure what I expected, if Yusuke and Ann had a hard time how would Mira do anything…" Gray muttered under his breath.
"This guy is insane… our attacks really aren't doing much." Gajeel irely said.
Away from them, Natsu and Elfman charged once more at Beerus. Not long after they did so, Erza and Mirajane went in as well to attack.
"I'm not about to stand here any longer just watching!" Gajeel shouted, and charged in as well as he began morphing his hand into an iron sword.
"That's something we can agree on!" Gray shouted back, and as he ran in while having his right hand forming into a fist and placing it on the palm of his left hand, an izy haze forming beginning to form around him.
"I'll back you all up as well, don't count me out!" Juvia shouted, the leftover waters from the ocean that were present around her started swirling around her as she worked her magic.
As Beerus, with his arms and hands behind his back, continuously dodged against the four wizards that had attacked him head on, he sensed three more coming towards him as well. As an opening was created by the mages already near him, Beerus held up a hand with two fingers up, catching an iron sword that Gajeel had swung from the side. The God eyed the Iron Dragonslayer before he threw him away, knocking him and Natsu down on the ground.
WATER LOCK!
With Juvia moving her hands in front of her, the water around her and the general area around Beerus all started to form around him until a spherical, tight area of water surrounded the God.
Gray arrived next to Juvia with a prepared look in his hands, and offered his hand to her.
"Ready?" Gray asked.
"Of course!" Juvia answered with happiness, and grasped Gray's hand with hers as they both glowed in a light blue light.
During the time of the fight, the ocean water that began to form into one once more after the explosive battle between the Saiyan's and Deity all rose up in the air, swirling and dancing around. Spikes of the ocean water protruded downwards towards the Deity within the orb of water, and as it descended, the tips of the waters instantly froze into ice and continued freezing throughout. The ice struck down on the ground, piercing through the sphere of water that Beerus was in. As the first one pierced, multiple more came down at the same spot repeatedly.
A cold mist surrounded the area where the ice landed, and as everyone else looked in suspense, a couple of claps were heard above, and they all looked to see Beerus himself looking down at the mages with a small grin.
"Not bad of a show. It's interesting to see what you mortals can do here. It's entertaining at least." Beerus said, and after clapping, he went ahead and placed his arms behind him once more before he descended down.
"He's mocking us…" Gray said with gritted teeth.
"I'm sorry… I didn't think he'd escape my Water Lock with ease…" Juvia said, downcasted.
"We need to try something else…" Gray muttered, and blinked as he saw five dolls coming down, and formed a pentagon among them before rapidly spinning around.
BARYON FORMATION!
A green glow was emitted from the wooden dolls before launching a green wave of magic towards Beerus, who simply evaded by leaping up but soon found himself maneuvering a bit in the air as the attack followed him.
Bickslow walked up towards everyone else that have been fighting so far, his arms crossed while having his usual large smile.
"We got a plan, we just gotta push him back. Freed and Levy are working on it right now." Bickslow said, glancing back. As he did so, several others did as well as they saw the two mentioned mages working on runes on the ground and in the air.
"So it's like that…" Erza said in realization.
"It's something at least, we'll just have to see." Mirajane said, eyeing the Deity and spotted Evergreen coming flying up in the air with her magic and arrived behind Beerus. From where she was at, Mirajane saw him shift his eyes to the side, fully aware of Evergreen's presence.
FAIRY MACHINE GUN: LEPRECHAUN!
Evergreen spreaded out her arms, as multiple energy needles of dust came jutting out from her magic, and traveled towards Beerus. Once more, the God flew around in the air and as he did so, the Fairy mage gritted her teeth as more needles were produced, and at a much faster pace than before. Unfortunately, even with more power she outputted, Beerus was simply more faster as he flew around the air, away from her attack.
"Tch, I'm not hitting him at all… but at least he's back further than he was before." Evergreen muttered, and saw the other mages taking initiative.
Erza flew up once more, catching Beerus' gaze as she shouted and swung the sword from the Black Wing Armor up, as well as donning the armor once again. She shouted as she sped up, and went to swing her sword up at the Deity, but seeing as he dodged, Erza thought quickly as she brought out an arm and fired off a large blue Ki wave from her hands. Feeling a little winded, she observed ahead to see Beerus flying back, and holding up a hand. Just as Erza's energy blast was about to reach him, what she witnessed instead was her attack stopping just in front of him, and it slowly got smaller in size before it completely dissipated into thin air.
From behind the redhead, Mirajane came flying above with her hands yet again placed on the left side of her body, a dark orb of magic swirling around between her palms.
SOUL EXTINCTION!
Mirajane launched her arms forward, releasing a wave of dark magic towards Beerus, strong enough that the ground below her started to shake. However, as several observed Mirajane's attack go towards the Deity, her magic was all of sudden, blown away from wind seemingly out of nowhere. The magic split apart in front of Beerus, two sides of Mirajane's attack landing on the ground, destroying it away from everyone else.
"W-What just happened…?" Lucy stuttered, watching above her.
"He just blew her attack away… like blowing out a fire…" Ann answered, and looked side to side, her loose hair that was now out of a ponytail swishing around. "... where's Mari?"
"Oh no…" Yusuke snapped his eyes back in the air, just in time to see Beerus tilt his body to the side to avoid a kick from Marissa in the air before the Earthling phased out again. "Damn it, she's fighting as well…! We need to get back up!"
"HAH!" Marissa swiped with her leg to kick at Beerus, who simply backed away in the air. She dashed forward with a flurry of punches, but all that accomplished was her hitting empty air as Beerus continuously moved around easily from her attacks. Afterwards, she leaped back as she brought her hands back, and shot out multiple dark pink Ki blasts repeatedly, seemingly endlessly. But it was fruitless as the God phased away each time one neared him.
Marissa then crossed her arms in front of her chest before placing them towards the left side of her, a green electricity coursing around her before she swiped her arms to the opposite side from where they were position and spun around, releasing a wide and large Ki strike that quickly traveled towards Beerus.
With narrowed eyes, Beerus brought out a hand while descending down, and nullified Marissa's strike as it a loud crackle of lightning was heard, her attack dispersing in mid-air.
KAIO-KEN TIMES THIRTY!
A dense, dark red aura enveloped the Earthling as she gritted her teeth greatly, and rocketed down towards where she saw Beerus was at with a loud roar. Going in with an arm pulled back, a bright flash enveloped her fist as she tried to blind the God, but wasn't fast enough as Beerus grappled her, unable to move any further.
"Grr…!" But still being able to move her arms, she placed two fingers to her forehead.
"...!" Seeing this, Beerus quickly released her just as she disappeared, and glanced back above him to see a mix of red and bright blue.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Marissa released a large Kamehameha Wave down towards the Deity, with her attack bright enough to obscure some of the people's vision, and her energy wave struck the ground. Large winds and quaking occured, and down below to where Freed and Levy were at, they struggled to stay still.
"It's hard to work here with all of that distraction…!" Freed irely said, holding his sword as he was forming runes on the ground.
"A-At least we don't have to start o-over…!" Levy managed to say, holding a magic pen as she tried to stable herself on the ground, and looked over to where the destruction was at. 'He's close… and we're almost done…!'
A large dust cloud loomed on the ground for awhile. Many watched in anticipation as it settled, and as it did, Beerus was discovered as yet again, he was standing on top the ground, a small area under him undamaged while the surroundings around him were destroyed.
"Damn it…" Marissa cursed under her breath.
"Good power. Not as much compared as the two Saiyan's over there but not bad overall." Beerus said with a grin intacted and then looked ahead. "Hm?"
An attack composed of energy that had been swung from a sword made its way towards Beerus, slicing the ground as it traveled. The Deity parried it away with his hand and brought the strike upwards, and immediately sensed several of the mages coming towards him.
FIRE DRAGON'S BRILLIANT FLAME!
Natsu brought both of his hands together and launched off a giant ball of fire down towards Beerus as he was in the air, and it struck the ground, destroying more of it from the impact. As it did so, Beerus was seen phasing in away from the flames, and backing up more away from the wizards.
ICE-MAKE ARROWS!
From the flames came out multiple arrows made out of ice that made its way towards the Destroyer, who simply dodged and batted them away with his hands until he looked up towards the flames still present.
IRON DRAGON'S ROAR!
Gajeel's iron breath blew away some of Natsu's fire as his roar was aimed straight at Beerus. The Deity leaped back as it hit the rocks underneath, and stood upright until he felt like he touched a wall with his tail.
"Hm?" Beerus glanced back, to see Freed and Levy panting slightly with sweat on their faces.
"There! It's done!" Freed said in accomplishment.
"We actually did it…" Levy said tiredly, wiping the sweat from her forehead.
As Beerus turned around and tried walking forward, he grunted as he hit a wall in the middle of nowhere, but as he looked closely, purple runes appeared briefly before going away.
"What is this?" Beerus growled in annoyance.
"My magic, where I can make a prison given enough time." Freed started explaining, taking a step forward. "Certain rules are applied to those within, and cannot get out unless the conditions I have set are completed. In this case, a timer has been set that lasts for a few minutes, and with a small size completed, we were able to get it done quickly. That should give us enough time to attack you with everything we got."
"Hoh?" Beerus listened on, and looked around him to see that he was encaged from all sides around him, top and as well as bottom. "Interesting, rather bothersome I let myself in here, but that shouldn't be a problem."
"What…?"
"Alright! You two got him!" Natsu cheered, running up near the Deity along with several others near him.
"Didn't think we could do it, but it looks like it worked." Gray said.
"Enough talking. We just need to land one scratch, right? It shouldn't be too hard from here now!" Gajeel announced, and his right arm began morphing into an iron sword once more.
"Might not be a manly thing to do, but it leaves us with no choice!" Elfman said.
As everyone observed, they saw Beerus face to the side, away from the mages that were currently to his left and right. As the God of Destruction touched the wall of purple runes, he allowed it to stay there, and narrowed his eyes.
...Hakai.
The entire cage of purple runes around Beerus suddenly flashed for people to see before a brief glow came upon them. Not a moment later did all of the runes began dispersing in the air into small particles of light, floating away.
Everyone watched in surprise as Beerus emerged from the destroyed runes, and he placed his arms behind his back once more.
"... h-how?" Freed stuttered as he and Levy took a frightful step back.
"I am the God of Destruction. There is nothing I cannot destroy." Beerus announced, eyeing the member of the Thunder God Tribe.
"Damn it!" Natsu growled, and took a stance as he was about to charge in once more until a loud shockwave happened that caused him and the other wizards to stagger back.
Yusuke and Ann phased in from both sides with attacks of their own, that was blocked by Beerus. The impact was large enough to quake the area around them, and both Saiyan's gritted their teeth as their fists didn't budge.
"I assume the both of you are up to fighting again?" Beerus asked tauntingly.
HAH!
Marissa came diving in with a kick behind Beerus as her red aura zipped by. She hit the rocks below just as Beerus phased out, causing both Saiyan's to stabilize themselves nearby.
"S-Sorry…" The Earthling meekly apologized.
"You're fine, Mari. Where is he...?" Ann said, looking around her surroundings to spot the Destroyer.
Up in the air, Mirajane and Erza observed down below, mainly at the Time Patrollers who were looking around to spot the Deity. That is until both women spotted Beerus appearing below them, but above everyone else currently on the ground. Both of them nodded to each other, and began diving down to where the God was.
As Beerus eyed back, he swayed to the side dodging Erza while he grabbed ahold of Mirajane by her fist, and threw her down towards the redhead, who had yet to turn around to look back. Both women collided against each other, and with a yelp from both of them, they crashed to the ground, catching everyone's attention.
"Erza! Mira!" Yusuke called out in worry, and quickly went and dashed over to them. However, not making it halfway, Beerus instantly appeared in between him and both women, halting his movements.
"These two seem more different than the rest of the humans here, incorporating Ki into their own magic. Almost as if they've been trained to do so." Beerus commented, looking at both of the downed women before glancing back to the male Saiyan. "And they seem rather fond of you."
"Beerus, we're the ones fighting you!" Yusuke shouted.
"That's right. You are the ones I am fighting against." Was all Beerus said, and looked back towards Erza and Mirajane with narrowed eyes.
'What is he thinking…?!' The male Saiyan thought as sweat dripped down his brow. Gritting his teeth, he was almost going to regret what he was about to say next. "Come on you stupid cat!"
…
…!
"Tarok, you fucking idiot!" Ann cursed with a harsh whisper.
"What is he thinking…?!" Marissa muttered in fright.
"Let's see you try and erase me from existence!" Yusuke further taunted, and immediately ascended to his second state of a Super Saiyan as his golden, electrified aura raged around him once more.
"Not a surprise coming from you brat. It looks like I'll have to completely beat you down now!" Beerus angrily said, fulling turning around as his magenta aura came to life again, with a lot more force than what he previously showed off.
As a spherical glow dispersed from Yusuke, he was about to take a stance until he noticed Beerus already in front of him.
"You won't be able to keep up now." Beerus said, and punched the male Saiyan right in his abdomen.
Yusuke spat out saliva as he was immediately blown back from the Deities attack, crashing past where he and Ann was previously at where Lucy and Wendy stood. Both the Celestial Mage and Sky Dragonslayer crossed their arms from the sudden winds, and was unable to process the fact that Yusuke was behind them.
"Damn it…!" Ann's Super Saiyan state came to life as the same as the male Saiyan's and charged in towards Beerus.
"Don't count me out!" Marissa shouted, and a dense red aura surrounded her once more as she leaped in right after the female Saiyan did.
"Hmph." Seeing as the other two Patrollers began making their move, Beerus instantly moved in front of them and grabbed ahold of their faces. Without both women realizing, the Destroyed went and slammed the both of them on the ground with a large enough force to crack the floor underneath even more to the point that a quake knocked down several wizards that were still nearby. "It's about time I ended this."
SKY DRAGON'S ROAR!
"Hm?" Beerus looked ahead to see a torrent of visible wind coming towards him, and leaped back to avoid being hit. As it dispersed, he looked to see Wendy standing upright looking at him, but noticed her trembling. 'A child…?'
'Even Wendy…?! I…" With some panic, Lucy looked around to still see leftover water from the ocean in the large cracks from the ground near her. Without hesitation, she brought out Aquarius' Key and dipped it in the nearby water. 'I need to at least do something too…!'
OPEN THE GATE OF THE WATER BEARER: AQUARIUS!
As a bell chimed and a light glowed from the key, arriving from the Spirit World revealed Aquarius herself with her long, light blue hair while still holding her signature vase in one of her arms.
"You have some nerve calling me out now while I'm in the middle of-?" Aquarius hovered above Lucy as she spoke, but when she caught the fright look on her face looking forward, the spirit followed her sight to see Beerus himself. Aquarius was silent, but even she knew that the current situation she was summoned in was rather dire. 'What is this…'
"Aquarius… please!" Lucy pleaded.
Without saying another word, Aquarius silently complied as she held her urn above her head, and a torrent of water came flying out of the object towards Beerus.
With enough sense, Ann and Marissa got out of the way in time as the water flooded the area in front of Beerus, seemingly hitting him. The water Aquarius threw dispersed, and Beerus was revealed to be where he exactly as he was before, unfazed.
"What? Was that supposed to do something?" Beerus mockingly asked towards the Celestial wizard and her spirit.
"Just… what is he…?" Aquarius muttered with sweat down her face. She looked down towards Lucy's face where she could see slight trembling in her eyes, and was about to scold her until a loud noise of rubble coming apart was heard behind them, prompting both women to look back to see Yusuke himself with two fingers on his forehead, and concentrated Ki was seen on his fingertips.
SPECIAL BEAM CANNON!
A spiraling beam of Ki quickly shot towards the Deity, to which Beerus responded with moving his hand up. Just as the male Saiyan's attack reached him, another explosion occurred where the God was at.
Not wasting another moment, Yusuke dashed in as another golden glow was emitted off his person. As he flew in the air, he instinctively looked to the left of him, and fired off another large Ki wave with both of his hands as Beerus suddenly appeared where the Saiyan fired his attack. With a bit of surprise Beerus quickly ducked away from his attack, narrowingly avoiding it.
'Close…' Yusuke thought as he landed in between Ann and Marissa.
'His reaction got faster… hm…' Beerus thought, narrowing his eyes at the three Time Patrollers below.
"They're improving rather quickly. Rather surprising actually from the pace this has been going." Whis commented, still watching from the now partially destroyed guildhall.
"You're talking about Yusuke and Ann?" Cana questioned.
"Yes. The longer Saiyan's fight, the stronger they become. In a rather dire situation such as this, it seems their limit is going higher at a rapid pace. They are certainly very much different the last time Lord Beerus and I saw them."
Those that kept watch from afar saw both Saiyan's ignite their golden auras once more, and took a stance.
"Marissa, hang back and get ready." Yusuke instructed.
"... got it." With a knowing nod, the Earthling took a couple steps back.
Ann's aura raged even more as she crouched forward a bit, gritting her teeth with a grunt. As the ground under her cracked, she instantly disappeared from where she stood.
Not even a moment later, Beerus quickly caught a kick from the female Saiyan behind him, her foot clearly aiming for the back of his head. What Beerus hadn't prepared for was the amount of raw strength Ann had put into her attack, and that his arm slightly shook. However, the impact of the Deity blocking the female Saiyan's attack, resulted in a very large shockwave that tore the ground under them.
'She certainly got stronger than a moment ago…' Beerus thought, and glanced back to see that Yusuke had already arrived and went in for a punch of his own.
The God used his free arm to quickly block the male while Ann slightly spun her body and went in with another kick with her other leg. Beerus noticed right away and quickly let go of both of them and leaped back in the air. But almost immediately, both Saiyan's chased after the Deity as they began a flurry of combining attacks against Beerus.
Soon, their figures fizzled out as multiple mortar-like explosions occurred in air for all to hear once again.
On the ground, Marissa began joining her hands to the right side of her body. The dense, red aura appearing around her person again as a brilliant blue orb appeared in the middle of her palms.
...KA!
...ME!
As the mages around the Earthling observed her, they saw her eyes were closed as the continuous clashing continued above.
...HA!
...ME!
With Beerus appearing and immediately blocking both of Yusuke's and Ann's punches, both Saiyan's suddenly leaped back from the air.
Back on the ground, all of the wizards around Marissa suddenly saw the Earthling disappear from where she stood, confusing them.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Marissa's scream echoed across the land as a bright blue light lit the sky where Beerus was currently at. A large shockwave spread across the area as more large winds were now present.
"Nng…!" Feeling a force resist her, Marissa shutted one of her eyes and continued concentrating.
On the other side was Beerus himself as he pushed himself back, and gritted his teeth. 'This one is surprising…'
There were two twinkles on either side of Marissa that soon lit in place. As both Saiyan's charged their attacks as much as they can to fire off.
FINAL FLASH…!
Ann and Yusuke both fired off a large golden Ki wave towards the Deity. However, as soon as they launched their attacks, Beerus shouted and instantly dispersed Marissa's attack, and dashed forward.
"Wha-?!" Marissa couldn't process what had happened as she immediately felt pain from her stomach first, and soon from her back as she crashed to the ground.
Both of the Saiyan's attack collided with each other that resulted in a explosion, and before either of them could process what had happened, they were both forcefully knocked out of the air, crashing to the ground as well.
As Marissa landed in the middle of the mages that had tried to help, Yusuke landed down just a bit aways from them while Ann crashed once near him but kept going towards the broken guildhall where was finally stopped.
Small particles of dust loomed around the fallen Time Patrollers. They were still conscious, but was struggling to move from where they were at.
Several Fairy Tail members, trying to get rid of their shock, went over to the Patrollers, including some that were still near the guild hall.
"Marissa, stay with us!" Levy said, picking up the Earthling under her as the Solid Script mage and several others saw her wincing and gritting her teeth.
"Ann! Are you alright?!" Cana hastily asked as she jumped over destroyed wall of the guildhall, and supported the female Saiyan as she struggled on her hands and knees.
"Yusuke!" Erza called out as both her and Mirajane ran towards him. While travelling only part ways, Beerus suddenly appeared between them, with both women being unable to reach him as they were forced to halt.
"The tactic just now was smart. If only you were facing anyone other than a God of Destruction, then it might have actually had an effect." Beerus said, walking towards the male Saiyan, who was struggling to get up and was only able to support himself on his elbows while facing the Deity. "At this point, it might as well be over."
"Get away from him!"
"...!" Yusuke looked up in surprise to the sound of Mirajane's voice, and saw her going in for a punch, only for Beerus to dodge, and does so again from a swing from Erza.
As the male Saiyan struggled to stand up, he heard pained screams from both women, and quickly looked to see them skidding on the ground, arriving just in front of him. In a sudden swift movement from Beerus, he quickly came up to Erza and Mirajane, grabbing their necks and lifted them off the ground.
"Stop it Beerus! Let them go!" The male Saiyan angrily shouted.
"It doesn't matter, does it? They're about to be destroyed along with this planet soon. Very soon." Beerus said lowly, and as he tightened his grip, Erza and Mirajane struggled more under his hold as they let out sounds of discomfort.
"...Nng!"
"...Gah!"
"I SAID LET THEM GO!"
Yusuke saw red. A sudden burst of energy had enveloped around him as he shouted and screamed. A dense golden aura was formed around him that glowed brightly in the area to a point where he wasn't seen anymore.
The male Saiyan's screams of rage continued on, the ground under him broke apart under his power until the dense light around him suddenly narrowed like a pillar reaching the sky. His voice died down, and heavy footsteps was heard as he was seen stepping out of the light.
His form has changed, as his golden hair seemed to gleam and spike up more. Only one bang of hair decorated his forehead now as his Ascended Super Saiyan state had two from before. The most notable difference were now his eyes as they were pupiless.
The pillar of light suddenly broke apart with particles of it going towards and dancing around the male Saiyan, forming a dense golden aura that lit like a fire around Yusuke, and a dense blue glow was seen on the outline of his person within the gold light.
With gritted teeth and a look of fury etched on his face, he stomped forward towards Beerus, who observed the Saiyan with a look of surprise on his face.
"...I'll make you pay for hurting them Beerus!"
Yusuke roared loudly, and charged at the God of Destruction in a fit of rage.
Oh wow...! Over 2 months since the last update! My bad guys! College is my only, but old and bad excuse at this point. Thought last semester would be my last before I transfer to a university, buuut I gotta take one more college semester before that's done. But! At least I got my Associates Degree! Yay!
.
Alright, enough about me, but I'm not gonna get too much into reviews like previous chapters and touch upon some briefly in this A/N.
I will say first and foremost, thank you very much to those who reviewed last chapter! It's always enjoyable reading them, especially when you guys liked it.
Now, as for them going Ultra Instinct, that's a definite no lol.
I don't have any plans for the Patrollers getting mixed up with the Tournament of Power, but that doesn't mean they'll be running into fighters from that arc.
***** This is in regards of the jumbled up riddle at the very end of the previous chapter, so I'll clear it up. Yes, they Are new skills that Yusuke and Ann will be achieving in this small custom arc of mine, and of course, it'll be canon.
But I'm sure as all of you can already tell, Yusuke has now achieved his just now! Can you guess Ann's?*****
As far as regarding Shallot from Dragonball Legends, I don't have any plans for him at all lol. Mainly it's because I couldn't get into the game on my phone and I doubt I will in the future, if I can't do that I wouldn't be able to implement him. The same goes for Beat and Note from Super Dragonball Heroes, even though they're going to be coming to the USA in a few months. Guess I'm just sticking to playing Dokkan that's DB related lol.
Uhhh, pregnant Erza and Mirajane, lol no that's not happening anytime soon xD.
There Will be some indication as to where they exactly are in the universe from Earthland.
Once again, thank you again for those that reviewed!

Alright, I want to touch in on how Yusuke and Ann performed in fighting against Beerus. Yes, from Whis' comments, I put them as mostly true because I do believe that a CAC Time Patroller at this point, post-fighting against Demigra is definitely stronger than what Goku's and Vegeta's power was at post-Buu Saga when they first encountered Beerus. It just makes sense, and it definitely implies that Yusuke, Ann, and Marissa's base form is very very powerful. Powerful enough to force Beerus on edge? No. Against Base/Super Saiyan Rose Black? Maybe, otherwise that'd just be me pushing it and making them Mary Sues because we still haven't really seen ANY of the God of Destuctions really damaged from fighting against mortals. Even though it has been said that Belmod, the God of Destruction from the Eleventh Universe cannot best Jiren. With how they portrayed Jiren during the ToP Arc, that definitely says something lol.
Compared to the Patrollers fight against Beerus than against Black, I took into account that they've been fighting the entire day against the Time Breakers back on Edolas, that plays a factor. Otherwise they might have held on their own, but not beat him outright or entirely. I'm just giving it out there. Against Beerus, they're fresh and restored and can put up a good show, but as seen here in this chapter, they did good but not good enough.
***** DRAGON BALL SUPER BROLY MOVIE POSSIBLE SPOILERS DOWN BELOW *****
Now, all of what I just said, may or may not be acceptable, depending on ya'll lol. Especially if we're also going to be taking some things said from the very recently released "Dragonball Super: Broly" movie. Yes I've seen it, and god damn it is absolutely amazing. But what I caught on was how Goku commented to Broly at the end of the movie of how he compared to Beerus. Mind you, Broly is a Mortal. Beerus is the God of Destruction of the Seventh Universe. Goku AND Vegeta at this point knows Super Saiyan Blue, and they had a damn hard time against Super Saiyan Broly, who was very angry and unreasonable and would attack anyone he sees. That says, ALOT.
But Beerus did not partake in the fight, I want to get that clear. I also apologize for any spoilers in here for those that have not seen the movie yet.
Now Gogeta was pretty damn amazing in the movie, and forced himself to even go into Super Saiyan Blue against Broly, but Gogeta definitely had the upper hand.
***** END OF SPOILERS *****
So it's not uncommon for those that have not attained Godly Ki to go up against those who do have it. It's not as effective for those using regular Ki, but they can try. And that's what Yusuke, Ann and Marissa were forced to do in this chapter.
Now as to the part where the Fairy Tail members involved themselves, it didn't feel right anymore to just have them standby. It's not too much of an effect, but they gotta do something right? It at least gave the Patrollers some time of relief. A reviewer from back then wanted more of them and I'm taking that into mind, and I do think it's more interesting that way. What do you all think? Good? Improvements? Let me know! I'll need to do better either than this time either way in the future.
This arc will probably go on about two more chapters before I dive into the Tenrou Arc. It's been a long coming, but this particular story will end soon before I move onto the next.
Throughout my time typing the chapter out, I've received more new people following and favoriting my story, so thank you to those new! I greatly appreciate it and I hope you'll follow me for a long while for these stories.
Not much else to say but I hope you guys had a good Thanksgiving, a good Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Christmas and most importantly, I hope all of you had a good new year! If I could, I'd make the Dragonball Super Broly Movie available in all countries, because I've heard that not every country has it yet haha. It'll be a good wait though, it's worth it. I would definitely go a second or third time to watch it if I had the time.
Until then!
