Vegeta's eyes widen, sweat going down the side of his face. "Impossible! How can she still be alive?!"

She raises her hand and launches a beam that has literal infinite speed so that nobody can react to it. It pierces Materia's chest and he explodes, disintegrating into particles.

"NO!" Caelicola and Solis yell, watching hopelessly as Ryina then aims a beam toward Gohan. "You are next. I am going to enjoy this."

Suddenly, Goku would launch toward her at the sidelines at full power. "Celeritas!" He goes even faster and kicks her arm, causing the blast to miss. "No, you don't!"

Ryina glances toward him and chops him on the shoulder, paralyzing him. "Ughh... What the?!"

"You came underprepared," she says, raising a blast toward him. "It was a bad idea for you to attack me. Die. DIVINE-"

Suddenly, she is kicked at the side and her eyes widen. "Guh!" She is sent flying, crashing across the battlefield.

Goku looks up to see Unmei in the Void form. However, it would not be the normal version. The purple lines on her body turn bright blue and pulsate super quickly, logic redefining itself around her. "It seems that you needed my help. This is stage three."

Chapter Sixteen

Ryina gets up from the rubble and growls. "Unmei... I should've known!"

She brushes herself off and walks forward, everybody on the battlefield watching her with anticipation. "Impressive that you caught me off guard, Unmei. It seems you have improved."

Unmei leaps down and lands a fair distance away from her, walking toward her as well. "You will not win this time, sister... Once I finally defeat you, I will bring peace to the Void."

Ryina grins and begins to walk faster. "I haven't had a sparring partner that could fight me at all for a very long time. Let's begin."

The two dash at one another and clash a powerful punch, sending everyone flying back. The Void begins to warp and create waves, lightning shooting everywhere. A bright light emits and particles shoot everywhere, causing destruction across the entire battlefield.

Goku raises his arms to protect himself, skidding back. "Ugh... They are on a whole 'nother level! We didn't even stand a chance against her!"

The two of them would be clashing at a literal infinite speed, each clash tearing apart the fabric of everything around them. They vanish and launch across the Void, explosions happening everywhere at once, tossing everybody around like ragdolls.

The gravity intensifies greatly, then disappears constantly. The very forces of nature would be fighting against one another. They continue clashing, everybody slowly being pulled toward them.

The two leap back from one another and launch blasts at each other only the size of a singularity, but each collision would create an explosion that rattles existence. They all struggle to stay on their feet.

"This is crazy!" Vegeta says, blocking the debris flying toward him. "Their fight is disrupting reality itself!"

Energy from their attacks gathers at the center and creates a MASSIVE energy ball that explodes, sending a gigantic shock wave toward the fighters. Caelicola and Solis would create a barrier to block it, but it would slowly be cracking.

Right before it breaks, the explosion stops, and Ryina and Unmei would continue to fight. Unmei brings back her fist and yells, punching Ryina in the face with full force. "NNGH..."

She then grabs Ryina, beginning to glow. "ALMIGHTY... CRASH!" She flips over and throws Ryina toward the battlefield, a giant pillar of energy crashing into her. "UGHHH!"

She crashes into it, causing Metempiric Space-sized chunks of the battlefield to fly up. Ryina gets up and smirks, launching back up toward Unmei. "Let us see how you handle... ONE percent of my power..."

Immediately, the Void slowly begins to peel around them, tearing apart. Ryina slams a kick into Unmei and she coughs up golden blood. "O... One percent?! How could you be so... powerful?!"

"You forgot how our last battle ended, Sister," Ryina replies, then a pulse shoots out, sending Unmei flying far back, zooming across the battlefield and the Void. She flies back and yells, her aura flaring up. "Do not underestimate me!"

Unmei begins to charge a powerful blast that towers above all of them. "ALMIGHTY CECIDIT!" She throws a huge blast and Ryina blocks it, being pushed back by it. "Keh..."

The blast swells up, about to burst. Ryina brings back her fist and slams it onto the blast. "Time to use one of my own techniques. Voidic Figito."

Immediately, the blast shrinks down and she grabs it. "It's been fun." She flicks it back at Unmei and it instantly slams into her, creating an explosion that nearly vaporizes all of the fighters.

When the light fades, Unmei falls down to the battlefield and crashes onto it, grunting. "You... Guh..."

"You once again were too overconfident, Unmei," Ryina says, raising her hand. "This time, I will make sure you are destroyed, then I will destroy everything else and remake it all."

Unmei then laughs, confusing Ryina. "What's so funny?"

She gets up and yells. "Terminus!" She begins to glow and brings back her fist, charging up.

"Oh?" Ryina raises an eyebrow. "You're using one of Arhenahin's techniques? How cute."

Unmei grins and glances toward the fighters. "Give me the orbs."

Caelicola and Solis would immediately understand, as three very powerful orbs would be teleported behind Unmei.

Three of the origin orbs would start to give her power. She would gain Celestial Essence, Verum Hakai Essence, and God Essence. She roars, ascending beyond her current level.

The orbs shoot beams of energy that fuel her. Those orbs would be the origin of Celestial, Verum Hakai, and God Essence.

Her entire body gets coated in God Essence, then rings of Celestial Essence appear on her body and she gains a Verum Hakai aura. "Now, there is no more holding back. Let us finish this."

She zooms forward and grabs Ryina, shooting down and slamming her into the ground. "What the?!"

Ryina tries to grab her but she moves out of the way and slams her with the back of her hand, sending her flying. She instantly vanishes behind Ryina and kicks her up, launching a powerful beam made of all three essences in an attempt to annihilate her.

Ryina spins around and kicks the beam away, getting angry. "I have had enough of this nonsense. Do you not understand what I am capable of? I am... the creator of the Void, and I possess my greatest item..."

Caelicola's eyes widen. "She can't mean..."

Ryina raises her hand and manifests an orb that begins to pull the entire infinite Void toward it slowly. "THIS... IS THE BEGINNING OF THE VOID! THIS IS THE MOST POWERFUL ITEM! Not even I have mastered its true power, as it did create me long ago."

Gohan clenches his fists. "She brought it out... That is the most powerful thing in all of existence... We have to take it from her!"

Ryina glances at him and wags her finger. "Tsk... Tsk... Tsk... I won't let you have this orb, even if it kills me."

She concentrates on it and begins to draw power from it. She begins to grow and size and her voice gets a little deeper. She roars and blows everybody back. "I can see... EVERYTHING!"

She raises her hand and half of the ENTIRE battlefield, which is millions of Metempiric Spaces big, begins to rise up. "Let's see how you handle... FIVE percent of my power!"

The giant chunk splits apart and begins to shoot in all directions, destroying parts of the entire Void.

"This woman is crazy!" Vegeta yells. "EVERYBODY, LOOK OUT!"

A giant chunk is sent hurtling toward them and they are barely able to fly out of the way before it slams into their part of the battlefield, creating a shock wave that tears it apart, sending them flying back.

Goku looks up at the sky and sees the Void slowly starting to come apart, lightning striking everywhere, debris flying, pillars of different colored light, and every type of energy shooting across.

Particles of all kinds would split and begin to disintegrate. They all watch in horror as existence begins to fall apart.

"We've lost," Caelicola says, a single tear going down his face. "Five percent of her power is like this... She's Omnipotent. She's erasing reality."

Piccolo flies over in his full power, trying to slow down the destruction. "EVERYBODY! My reality is at the far parts of the Void!" He creates a portal that is barely able to form. "GET INTO THE PORTAL!"

Solis leaps forward and enters stage two of the Void form, creating a massive barrier. "US CAELESTE WILL HOLD HER OFF! GET INTO THE PORTAL!"

"What about you guys?!" Gohan yells, horrified. "You will die!"

They look up and see Unmei launching toward Ryina, slamming her onto the ground. "I will NOT let you destroy everything! THE INFINITUM MORTALE MUST SURVIVE! He is the key to bringing her down! Get into the portal!"

Goku clenches his fists and tries to contain himself. "THIS ISN'T OVER, RYINA! Come on, Vegeta, Gohan, Piccolo!"

"I have to stay here," Piccolo says. "I'm sorry to disappoint you once again, you two. I won't be coming back after this. I need to stay here to maintain the portal."

Gohan runs over and hugs him, trying not to cry. "W-we will bring you back, Piccolo! This isn't the end!"

Piccolo smiles and gently pushes him away. "Go, you three. You must create a plan. The Void only has a couple of minutes left before it is destroyed."

From above, Unmei would have tried to attack Ryina, but she would have been swatted out of the way like a fly, crashing onto the dissolving ground next to them. She coughs and turns toward them, her eyes barely open.

"Sorry, you three... I have failed the Void..."

Ryina turns toward them and slowly goes down, holding the Scroll of Fate up. The four origin orbs of the Void would revolve around her: The God Essence Orb, the Verum Hakai Orb, the Celestial Orb, and the Void Orb.

"I finally have obtained the four items I was looking for," she says. She opens the scroll and sees the lock on it. She grabs it with her bare hands and rips through it like it was paper. "I have control over fate now..."

She creates a glowing pen and writes in it. "'Caelicola and Solis would disintegrate into nothing...'"

Caelicola gasps and looks at his hands. "She's got the scroll! She has control over everything! Solis- I-" The two of them would be gone.

Ryina laughs. "It really works! I have control over the Fan Fiction! I am the writer!"

Despite being confused, Goku would ignore her statements and turn toward Unmei, who would raise her hand and create three symbols on Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan's chests. "I have given... you a Fate Charm... You now have... immunity against the Scroll of Fate... She no longer has control over your stories."

She then hands a necklace to Goku. "Put this on, Infinitum Mortale. When Ryina resets existence, Piccolo's dimension will not. She won't notice for a while."

Unmei gets up and begins to glow. "I will distract Mother and enter the true form of the Caeleste." Goku would notice she is slowly disintegrating. "Go now."

"Come on, let's go!" Vegeta yells, as the three of them leap through the fading portal. Before it closes, Goku turns back to see Unmei entering a form different from Stage Three. She launches up at Ryina, yelling. "ALMIGHTY CLOSURE!"

A massive explosion happens and the portal shatters.

Beerus shoots up, sitting on his throne. He'd look up at the universe and see it rapidly disintegrating. "What the hell?! Is Zeno having another temper tantrum?!"

He flies out of the multiverse and sees the entire Omniverse actually disintegrating. Pods would be flying everywhere with screaming passengers trying to escape from their impending doom.

He would see all four of the Orders trying to undo the erasure, but they would disappear. Ahton flies toward Beerus, yelling, "Everything is being erased!"

"I can see that, dipshit!" Beerus yells back. "What's the situation on the Metempiric Space?!"

"It-It... It's being erased, too!" Ahton replies. "I am sorry, Beerus. From the battle with Furouxa and learning about the existence of the goddess of the Void, I can only conclude she is erasing everything."

Beerus looks up hopelessly and then closes his eyes. "I see... Goku, Vegeta... I hope you are alright."

Naruto would look up at the sky on a sunny day next to Sasuke, as they would see the sky turning completely white. "Sasuke, it looks like that Akuma guy might've won after all. Thank you for everything."

Sasuke closes his eyes and tries to concentrate. "I cannot find anywhere to escape to with my two Rinnegan. It looks like the Metempiric Space is fading."

Luffy would be sitting on the Thousand Sunny with a couple of his crewmates, having become the Pirate King, found the One Piece, and overthrown the World Government long ago.

He senses something with his Observation Haki and uses Future Sight to notice that everything is fading from reality. The ocean would glitch and rapidly change colors, fading away.

He gets up and looks at the sky. "Zoro, you don't figure this is a Devil Fruit, right?"

Zoro slowly shakes his head. "It looks like everything is fading away. That Akuma bastard must have returned."

Luffy clenches his fists and yells out to the sky. "THIS ISN'T OVER!"

Goku looks up and sees the Void disintegrating above them. He puts on the necklace and the dimension stops being erased.

The entire Void around them is deleted, leaving nothing but a new white nothingness. The entire Void around the dimension would just be... bright white.

Goku drops onto his arms and knees, punching the ground, shaking. He'd be in shock after what happened. He lost everything: his wife, his home, his multiverse, his reality..."

For the first time in a long time, he wouldn't be able to contain his emotions. He'd start to cry along with Gohan. Even Vegeta would turn away from them and quiver slightly. "My Bulma..."

Vegeta punches himself in the face and turns toward them. "Get... Get up, you fools! We need to create a plan to take her down! We cannot let the death of everybody go in vain!"

Goku slowly rises up and sighs. "You're right. We need to figure out what to do."

Vegeta goes up to him and grabs him by the shoulder. "Listen up, Kakarot. I never cared that you were the Mortal Infinity or whatever. All that matters is that you learn to use whatever stupid powers you have."

Goku turns and walks past him, clenching his fists. "First, we three need to learn Stage Three of the Void Form, and also... We must remove the third limiter if it means to save everybody else."

"Are you sure, Dad?" Gohan asks him. "You know what that does."

FLASHBACK

"The second limiter will boost you even more and allow your body to attract the energy of the Void," Caelicola explained. "It will be straining on your body, so you cannot use it for too long."

"What happens when you remove the third limiter?" Goku asks.

Caelicola's face darkens and he looks at the limiter, then back at them. "Well..."

He looked up with a deadly serious expression. "When you swipe the third line, you will gain power that you have and likely never will possess. You will obtain the ultimate power. However, when the power is gone..."

He sighed and leaned down to them. "When the transformation runs out, you will lose all of your powers as well. All of that hard work you've done over the span of many years will be naught. Your power level will reset back down to 5 or 10."

Goku turns toward Gohan, nodding. "I know the risks. For all these years, I was selfish. All I did was fight. I even suggested the Tournament of Power just to get a challenge. I endangered the universes."

Vegeta nods. "About time you used your brain. It won't be that long before that goddess finds us. We need to somehow get that form within a couple of hours. It seems impossible, but we are Saiyans!"

Gohan smiles. "Let us train like old times. Even though we are probably going to get killed, it will still be an honor to fight alongside the two of you for one last time."

Just before they start fighting, there would be a bright light in the distance. Suddenly, a massive explosion of a degree they have never seen before erupts. It would be of infinite heat and mass.

A giant blue barrier shoots out and goes past their dimension, and the white nothingness around them begins to form into the Void.

"The Void is being recreated," Gohan says, his eyes widening. "It's crazy to experience something like this... She must be recreating it in her image."

"One day out there is like trillions of years in here," Goku says, realizing something. "Wait... the Void is expanding this fast even though it's only going SUPER slow outside. Just how big is the Void?!"

Gohan shrugs. "That's not important right now. Let's begin our training. We must unlock stage three and... perform the Arhenahin: Fusion."

"Sounds like a plan," Goku replies, smiling.
