Adaptation
Bergamo sets Majora back on the floor as he continues to exert an incredible amount of raw power from his body, leaking it into the air all around the fighters!
Ultra Bergamo: Urgh…! Ugh..!
Goku: I thought I was gonna go Ultra Imperial again, but you proved me wrong! I KNEW someone else could do it eventually!
Shin: If there's one thing I've learned from Whis is that this is no easy feat!
Kusu: In a sense, you're right. I've heard his thoughts. Instead of Bergamo letting his body go on autopilot, he's broken his shell by reaching out to such divine power to save Majora's life. He's let go of his emotions to rescue one other than himself.
Tien: Told you power scaling was bullshit.
Caulifla: I know, right?! I mean, Kale an' I got Super Saiyan in less than a few minutes. We're convinced it takes decades longer than that!
Goku: I'm just excited to land my first punch to his face in this form! Jiren was the only one with a power equal to mine, so this could be just as powerful! Maybe even stronger!
Ultra Bergamo pulsing: Ugh...Eergh..!
Kale: Are you sure, Mister Goku? He looks hurt.
Goku: Hm…Yo, are you ok?
Bergamo quickly turns to Goku and an explosion goes off in front of him, knocking the Saiyan down!
Goku: Ow!
Ultra Bergamo: No Goku... I have to do this! I have to master this if I am to get stronger and protect… AAAAAGH!
Kusu: Ohoho, right! Forgot. (Flips staff) If you're new to this sorta thing, you'll either fall unconscious while in severe, unimaginable pain, or push comes to shove, you'll die.
Mai: And you're talking like this is completely normal?!
Kusu: Hey, I'm an Angel. I can turn it on and off whenever I want. For a mortal like Goku, that's...not so easy.
Goku: Quick Krilldog! Throw him a senzu bean!
Krillin hopping towards Bergamo: Senzu Bean! (Tosses bean)
Bergamo, while on his knee bent into submission catches the bean with his hand that isn't put under stress and swallows it down. Although it does help a little to keep him leveled, it doesn't help him move or take him out of the pain!
Ultra Bergamo: AAAAGH!
Mai: It didn't work!
Krillin: Aw man! It always does! That's the only other reason I still exist!
Mai: But I thought you were married to 18 and had a kid.
Krillin: The only OTHER reason I still exist.
Vegeta: What does this man need to sustain something you couldn't in under 10 minutes?! A full buffet?!
Goku: I know I could go for a buffet right now. But if ya tell me it's all baked, you sure as Hell committed a sin!
Ultra Bergamo: ARE YOU GOING TO HELP ME OR SALIVATE THE WHOLE TIME?!
Goku: Oh yeah, right! Can't you do something to help him, Kusu?
Kusu: Nope. This is something he has to figure out on his own. There are many difficult ways to keep such divine energies going for you. The easy part is when it starts on a dime like when you're using the toilet.
Caulifla: So that's why my hair turned white for a sec when I ate too much dinosaur.
Ultra Bergamo grinning: Heheh… Guess it's time I let 'er rip then. (Gets back on feet) Uurrgh…!
Caulifla: Wait, I didn't mean for you to-
Bergamo lets out one final scream that shoots out raw ki from his body, causing everyone to absorb bits of the godly energy onto themselves in close contact! When all the ki is dispersed, Bergamo calmly sighs in relief and falls unconscious.
17: ...Ok, so, any idea what he just did?
Majora: This ki… It seems he's dispersed the energy onto us, like how he repaired me.
Hit flexing his hand: It's almost unbearable. I've fought plenty of targets more powerful than I, but I have never been able to feel anything quite this strong in my grasp. (Shuts eyes) If my skills weren't up to par before, now I'll have better chances of refining them.
Majora: You're right. Many of us don't have a transformation after all.
Shin feeling his hand: It's incredible. I almost feel like...you, Goku. Which I'm not certain is good or bad.
Goku: Aaaaw. I really do inspire people.
Vegeta: Well now. Thanks to the werewolf, all of you got a taste of god ki. (Points) Which means you should be ready for round 2!
Krillin: Hey, I never signed up for this! We just got on your level!
Vegeta: Well you're gonna wanna learn it fast and duck. Because as soon as I move a muscle, I don't wanna smack you with my-
Instantly, 17 moves at unfathomable speeds and punches Vegeta right in the gut, sending him into the other side of the lookout past the time chamber! He lands face first and slides until he comes to a complete stop at the very edge of the platform!
Vegeta struggling to speak: ...Dick…
Gowasu in surprise: Aah..!
Kusu: Wow. You caught on fast. I don't even know if you were thinking before you act.
17: I was. I just didn't expect to be moving this fast exactly. What do we call it if it's not Ultra Instinct, anyway?
Tien: I'd call it Ultra Ego, but then we'd actually love to fight. That and we'd all have widow's peaks.
Vegeta: Fuck you, Triclops…!
Gowasu: You know, when Kusu here trained Gravous in the ways of a Destroyer, she also taught her how to be an Angel. She might have mastered the techniques of both. (Turns to Kusu) Am I remembering that correctly?
Kusu: Yes. But how'd you know that if we hardly brought you to the sanctum?
Gowasu: …(Blushes) I snuck in to take a few photos…
Kusu quietly slaps the back of the old man's head.
17: I get the feeling we're gonna have some fun this time. Wouldn't you agree, Ultra Army? (Winks)
Caulifla palming her fists: Ohohoo! It's on now!
Majora: I guess as Ganos would say, your time is up, Goku and Vegeta.
Vegeta slowly makes his way back to the scene with a dent in his armor by his gut region with a sign of blood coming from a cut in the wound.
Vegeta: Can't let you do that, Star Fox…
Shin: Are you alright, Vegeta?
Vegeta: Is my ass bigger than yours?
Shin: Hardly. (Slaps ass)
Goku going Kaioken Blue: Alright! It's about time I got a real challenge! I've been waiting for this for a long time! (Takes a stance with Vegeta) Let's do this!
Meanwhile, back at Capsule Corp…
Bulma is having tea with Whis, Chi-Chi, Launch, and Beerus by the top balcony of the labs.
Bulma: So, Launch, what you been up to since...well...whenever it was we saw you last time.
Launch: Oh, you mean with Vegeta's younger brother?
Bulma: Yeah, Tarp or something like that.
Launch: Oho! It's been...Its been...Achoo! (Turns blonde) It's been a living Hell! I've been spendin' most of my time travelin' the world with a cheap ass plane I got off of Craigslist when outta nowhere, it crashes at that house old turtle guy lives at! I'll bet he did a Kamehameha on the damn thing and I didn't even see it...Achoo! (Turns back to normal) Ahaha, excuse me. I had a problem with my sinuses a few days ago. I meant to say that it's been fun since I crashed at Kame House and I decided to stay there for a while until I could get the plane fixed.
Whis: Oh my. Sounds like quite the job. How long did it take you?
Launch: About a few days at the most. It wasn't so bad. (Sneezes quietly) But I'll tell ya what is bad. This tea tastes like it ain't got enough sugar. You got any more?
Chi Chi passing the sugar: Here you go.
Beerus: I like a girl who knows what's up. Do you have a condition with your sneezing?
Launch: No, I'm a teleportin' twin. Of course I've got a condition! Er, more like a phase. Kinda like that blonde thing Goku and that other guy turn into.
Chi Chi: You mean Super Saiyan?
Launch: So THAT'S what Mr. Satan dressed up as in a TV skit!
Goten comes to the balcony with a bright smile on his face.
Goten: Hey, Mom, is it ok if I go training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber with Trunks one day? We really wanna do the thing where we hit really really hard, and then get out and we're all tough like you and Dad are!
Everyone: Daaw…
Chi Chi: Haha, Goten, honey. You know I've been hard on your father about balancing training and working, and I don't wanna imagine what… Wait… Did you say I was tough?
Goten: Well, I did hear you from my room beating up Dad. He said something like,"AGH! Please, stop! It tickles and it's weird!" And you were all, "Shut up! You love it!" Like that.
Everyone but Chi Chi try their best to contain their laughter, and she quickly grins and covers Goten's mouth!
Chi Chi: Heeheehee! That wasn't fighting, son! That was acting, for, a uh...a-a play! Yeah, a play for Mr. Satan! He's going to help producer Nappa create a recreation of the battle with Frieza, and it's our job to give them the details on what it looked like.
Goten: But you weren't there.
Chi Chi: Y-yeah. I'm just going off what your father told me. Now, why don't you go and get some ice cream for you and Trunks?
Goten: I would, but I don't wanna leave you with a stranger from the sky.
Chi Chi turning to the sun: Huh...?
Chi Chi and the rest look up to the sky and see Majin 21 hovering down calmly to the balcony with a more relaxed look on her face and her Time Patrol jacket.
21: Hello again everyone. Especially you, Lord Beerus.
Beerus: Oh, it's the hot pink one.
Bulma: 21! You're back...?
21: Yes. And the good news is, my evil self is gone for good this time! She's in HIFL along with all the other villains! But, for some reason, Nappa isn't among them. I thought he died when Vegeta first arrived on Earth.
Bulma: He did. But, my husband worked for Frieza when he killed him, so, he's good. He works on some cool movies nowadays.
Launch back to normal: Nice to meet you, Mrs. 21! I don't think we ever met before!
21: Hm...I think I know your name from Goku's memories. Nice to meet you too, Launch! I hope you don't get your name mixed up again like last time!
Bulma: Wait, your name's been mixed up a few times?
Launch: Yes. Some people call me Lunch for some reason and I have no idea why, but it's still the sweetest name.
In the sky, Gohan, now in his gi, descends to the Capsule Corp building.
Gohan: Hi, Whis Sama! Beerus Sama! I'm sorry I've come so abruptly, but I wanted to ask if… (Looks at 21) Wait… Are you..?
21 blushing: Hi Gohan. It's been a while, has it?
Gohan: Well, not too long. Last time we met, it was sometime before a multiversal tournament. So King Yemma DID find a way to bring you back! But why are you still like how we last met you?
21: Oh, yeah about that. I didn't actually die. The evil one did. The Time Patroller Trunks saved me at the last second so I could work with him and the Supreme Kai of Time to avoid another situation like that.
Beerus hesitating: Wait, the Time Patrol's involved?! Don't tell me that loli has you running errands too!
21 in irritation: Are you kidding? My whole JOB is an errand! Every mission's a chore! Not only does Lord Guru constantly need me and Nail to get the Dragon Balls on Namek from a never-ending horde of Frieza's men, but then you have teaching sessions, invasions, Toki Toki getting captured 24/7, about 17 versions of Towa and Mira to deal with, the same ol' plot of a really strong OC going from no one to someone, Chronoa making pudding, and Trunks frequently questioning himself over whether or not he wants to change the future of one non-canon timeline to the next! Or worse...!
Goten: Oh no! What can be worse than that?!

Chi Chi, Goten and Bulma palming their cheeks: The horror!
Whis holding his cheek: (Sigh) There can never be one timeline, can there?
Gohan: Well, let's put it this way. At least you don't have to deal with both it and the crazed version of yourself from before.
21: Honestly, by this point, I think I'd rather have her to deal with instead of all these other people I don't care about. Although, ever since my move, I still have this strong animalistic urge to eat anything that's shaped like bacon…
Chi Chi: That's Goku for ya!
21: I need to find him and Vegeta before it's too late. There's a huge threat coming it's way, and Universe 9 is going to be its first meal!
Beerus: They can never catch a break anyway. (Shrugs) Oh well. Guess it wouldn't hurt to take a peek at least.
Whis: The last time I've seen them, Kusu, Universe 10's attendant, helped them set up a sparring session at The Mother's Sanctum.
Gohan: Seems like my Dad, alright. And it's pretty coincidental since I was planning on visiting Universe 9 myself, so I guess we'll have to detour.
Chi Chi: I'd say don't, but you can go with Gohan, Goten. He can watch over you.
Goten: Yaaay! I can kill bad guys with my cuteness!
Bulma: Make sure to tell Vegeta he still owes me dinner. He said he'd cook squid ramen.
21 smiling wildly: SQUID...?! I'm sorry. That Goku side's kicking in. I'll try to remember.
Beerus pointing to the sky: Take us away, Whis!
Whis tapping his staff: Yes, of course.
Immediately, Whis, Beerus, Gohan, Goten, and 21 fast travel away from the vicinity.
Launch: Your husband cooks?
Bulma: Yeah. You should've seen what happened to Whis. When Vegeta cooked for him, he orgasmed.
Launch slamming on the table: That was a dude?!
Back at The Sanctum...
Goku and Vegeta continue their battle with the new Ultra Army for Round 2, now powered by God Ki. Both Saiyans share confidence knowing that they've succeeded in making the group stronger than what they were before. Now they can fulfill their real mission to get stronger through them. Immediately, Goku, with his Kaioken Blue, dashes forward for Hit, prompting Majora to step in front of him and block his ki-powered punch with one hand without even budging or leaving a shockwave! Only an earthquake precedes it, surprising everyone, including Majora himself as he opens his eyes in astonishment at his newfound strength. He quietly takes Goku by the arm and twists him into a quick spin in the air before kicking him back towards Vegeta, who too is surprised yet unphased at the achievement; likely just trying to assess how powerful everyone is.
Majora: Amazing…!
Goku getting back up: Oh! I've got an idea!
Goku shoots a beam to his right where nothing is but a pile of rubble. This distracts everyone, and when they turn back and see that he's gone, Vegeta comes back and manages to punch Tien into the sky! But he keeps himself steady and shines a solar flare around the area, blinding Goku, who's used instant transmission to try and get behind everyone and attack! Krillin notices him and shoots a small Kamehameha at Goku that actually manages to push him far enough that he falls off the boundaries of the lookout!
Krillin: Hot damn! This stuff sure does wonders! Now I'm finally intimidating! (Gets kicked by Vegeta) Agh!
Krillin lands on his face and skids across the surface with his arms on his sides!
Krillin face planted: Still punchable though...
Majora: Lift yourself, Krillin! I hear him coming for you!
Vegeta makes a dash for Krillin again, but 17 suddenly warps in front of him and throws a heavy no punch into the back of his head, slamming him into the floor!
17: I dunno how I did it but teleporting sure makes my job a lot easier.
Goku: You're learning! (Tears up) They… They grow up so fast..!
Vegeta: Tch..! Suck up the tears, Kakarot!
Tien: Ok. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. There's a lotta energy, but it's useless if we don't know how to use it.
Hit: You know...I was ready to say the same thing. First, where's Hopp and that rabbit with her?
Kale: You mean Sorrel?
Vegeta: Who knows? They fell down some stairs or something. I'll find them later when this is over. But for the rest of you, even if you hone in your skills, you'll never be able to stop me! (Starts transforming) HAAAAAAAAAAAGH!
Vegeta starts transforming in power and his aura of Super Saiyan Blue at its once absolute peak shoots up in strength, blinding everyone briefly in a pure white light until it dims, detailing Vegeta's shiny black hair and a calm blue shade around him. Goku himself is surprised at him, shocked that he was able to reach this state so perfectly like it's a normal walk in the park. 17, as always, is unimpressed, but before he could react, he gets grabbed by the neck by Vegeta, taken at unseen speeds to the edge of the lookout to Gowasu's surprise back at his camera!
Gowasu: I-its an Omen! But, it doesn't feel like an instinct.
17 still held by the neck: Yeah! I noticed.
Vegeta still holding 17: Unlike Kakarot, nothing controls me! My body is under my will! (Tosses 17 away) Once I reach its true form, I'll be unstoppable!
When Vegeta swipes his hand and releases an energy wave that slices through the lookout, a loud roar can be heard alongside his voice! 17 jumps over the wave and comes in for a punch to Vegeta's cheek, which pushes him back down through the floor into one of the lower levels of the structure! Hit follows and boosts himself over to the Saiyan with his Time Skip and blocks a punch from Vegeta using his knee. He takes a stance while simultaneously blocking even more hits and gets into high-speed attacks similar to when he fought Jiren. Only this time, Hit is a lot faster than he was before.
Vegeta: Keep using your Time Skip and eventually I'll surprise you like I did Toppo!
Vegeta throws a heavy kick to Hit's cheek and sends him away! But soon after, Caulifla, with her newfound God Ki, attempts to attack! Vegeta blocks her elbow to his face with both arms, smiling at her with confidence as always. He spins her in the air and shoots her away with a Galick Gun, only for Kale to kick him with both feet in the back! This, of course, does not even flinch him, and before Kale could shoot a ki blast from her palm at him, he already has his knee near her chin as though he were too fast for the naked eye. It's enough to stun the poor Saiyan, and the Prince lets her recover as he turns his attention over to the rest of the Ultra Army.
Mai watching the action: There's so much happening, I'm not sure I'd be any help…
Kusu hovering over to Mai: I wouldn't say that. It's easy for a God of Destruction to quit on something they don't see being worth their time. You, on the other hand, wait until it's time. You'll know what to do, just like in your fight against Zamasu.
Mai: I mean I did, but I only had a rifle, and he could regenerate, so…
Shin: I see. Vegeta's tapped into the power of a God of Destruction ever so slightly… If he were to master it, there's no telling what he'd become…!
Goku: I'd LOVE to see that! And when he does, I hope it's on par with my Danny Phantom colored one! Or the Kaioken x158,782-1!
Vegeta: Times what..?
Tien charges an extremely powerful tri beam from behind Vegeta while he wasn't looking, but when he fires, Vegeta has his fist in the triclops' back, knocking him right into the floor!
Vegeta crossing his arms: HA! Once again, bald one, you've been outclassed.
Tien chuckling against the floor: Like I care. I'll bet you still can't compete with Goku when he gets Ultra Instinct working again.
Vegeta: (Smirks) Hahaha. We'll see about that. But you were right earlier. I have a lesson to teach about this God Ki the furry gave you all. (Turns back to Kale) Starting with the OC Saiyan.
Kale: OC?
Vegeta: Face it. Your transformations and fusions are worthless at this stage. Tell me, you can transform into a Super Saiyan 2, right?
Kale: Yes sir.
Vegeta: Try mixing your powers in with it or the Broly-looking one. You'll become a Saiyan God like me. Then you may -not will- but MAY be able to graze my cheek.
Kale: I-I'll try. (Closes eyes and concentrates)
Caulifla coming back: Hey, what about me, Prince of No One? I'm a Super Saiyan!
Vegeta: Oh yeah. As for you, Canola-
Caulifla: It's Caulifla.
Vegeta: If you try that stunt again with your potara fusion straight away, the next time I use my Final Flash, I won't be holding back.
Caulifla: Not like you weren't holding back to begin with, tights!
Hit coming back to Caulifla: No, he's right. You've been exhausting your energy this whole time, not even saving your stamina. Going in head first like that can be a sign of overconfidence.
Caulifla with her hands on her hips: Ok, Dads. I'll try and slow it down a notch. Ok?
Distant Voice: Oh please! Do so to your heart's content!
Caulifla turning to the sky: Hah?
Along with Caulifla, the Ultra Army turn to the sun being blocked off by some sort of large oddly angular object in the sky shaped like a battleship, much to the surprise of Goku! Just beneath it, Lord Frieza hovers down in his pod clapping at the spectacle before him.
Frieza clapping: Bravo! Bravo, every one of you! You've exceeded all my expectations!
Goku: Freezer...?!
Frieza: Goku.
Vegeta: Oh, it's you again.
Frieza nodding: Vegeta.
Mai: Frieza...?!
Frieza: I don't know who you are.
Shin: Frieza…!
Tien: Frieza!
Krillin: Frieza!
Bergamo sleeping: ZZZZZZZZZ…
Frieza: Gosh I'm popular.
Vegeta rather unimpressed: What are you doing out here? And how did you get here so fast? We're in another universe!
Frieza: I have my ways, Vegeta. (Points to the group) And apparently, so do you.
Vegeta: Urrgh…! Do you always have to have the last word?
Frieza: Yes! Thank you for asking.
Caulifla: Wait, isn't that one of your teammates?
Goku: Not just a teammate. He's kinda my frienemy.
Vegeta: Fuck that! He's my enemy. Nothing's gonna change that! Especially for stealing my win!
Majora: So he's an evildoer?
Krillin: I mean, he's got a bigass spaceship and he's usually hear to kill us. Especially me… Second time coming from him…
Frieza: Oh, I see the bald one is back once again, and now he has a whiff of that godly energy. It's like I'm watching a live-action adaptation of someone's fan fiction about Super Saiyan 4's and 5's.
Goku: Huh. That's giving me some serious dejan-vitamins...
Frieza: But enough about that. (Raises arms) I'd like to introduce you to your surprise, Goku! Behold, my finest creation yet!
The side hatches of the ship above Frieza open up, unleashing a swarm of muscular horned and masked soldiers with a sleek black version of the normal gear of the Frieza Force. Some of them fly into a formation that spells in large letters, "Sorbet," followed by, "Strikers."
Goku scratching his head: Sorbet Strikers...?
Vegeta: Is this supposed to be another one of your Ginyu Force knockoffs on a larger scale?
Frieza: Ohoho, no. I believe I've had enough flamboyance in my ranks. These soldiers were all cloned from the blood of Shisami, the one the green man fought on Earth, and programmed to be as loyal and more powerful than he was. Better than the Ginyu Force and the Frieza Force you Saiyans defeated on Earth. So to commemorate one of my most loyal subjects, Sorbet, I named this division after him. After all, any chance at the monkey not paying attention to his surroundings is ripe for the occasion!
Goku: Oooh yeah! That little laser thingy got me real good when I powered down that time! Guess I can't let that happen again! Hehe!
Vegeta: And you think programming them from birth like a bunch of useless robots would bring them on our level?
Frieza: Don't be silly, prince. Not one of them can match you. They have far better strength in numbers than they do alone. (Points to The Sanctum) Attack the monkeys and anyone who gets in our way! Even if they have an Angel's power or they're a God of Destruction, I don't care!
Sorbet Strikers: SIR, YES SIR!
Some of the new Sorbet Strikers immediately charge for battle while the rest charge their palms with raw energy for a barrage attack! The melee fighters attempt to strike the heroes while 17 puts up a shield bubble, allowing Hit to Time Skip on them. Only half the melee fighters still stand and back off from the bubble to let the outside troops shoot at it!
Goku: Man! I sure don't remember Freezer's goons bein' this scary!
17 still holding the shield up: Anyone got any ideas?
Tien: Some of us better take out those blasters while you guys get the ones on the ground!
Caulifla palming her fists: Cool beans!
Krillin: Sounds like a plan! Which means… (Raises fist) ULTRA ARMY, ENGAGE!
Everyone: …
Vegeta: That was right in my ear.
Both Tien and Shin exit out of the bubble into the air, narrowly dodging the blasts from the soldiers back at Frieza's ship! Kale sets everyone in the bubble back down to the sanctuary and engages the Sorbet Strikers coming in for an attack! Bergamo, however, is still unconscious and lays resting against a boulder.
Gowasu checking on Bergamo: Bergamo's still resting, but he's drained.
Vegeta blocking some soldier's attacks: Sounds to me like that ki disperse was enough to weaken him. (Shoots soldier away with galick gun) Still, he should have enough to take on these men when he wakes up from his daydreaming.
Vegeta and Goku dial down their forms to a regular Super Saiyan Blue to save their energy for Frieza. Both of them charge at the ground troops fighting with even more finesse than their original counterparts. One of them grabs Goku from behind and tosses him away, shooting at Vegeta before he could even strike at another soldier in front of him. The trooper kicks him into the ground and shoots him against the edge of the lookout!
Vegeta: WHAT...?!
Goku: Sweet! These guys really are tough! I'll have to bring in my B-Game to beat you!
Caulifla fighting other men: B-Game...? (Headbutts soldier away)
In the midst of the battle, Bergamo finally reaches consciousness, lifting himself while holding his weary head.
Bergamo awakening: Ugh… Wha…? What happened...?
Majora: Ah,Bergamo!
Kusu: Welcome back, champ!
Hit: You've fallen unconscious when you dispersed your ki. (Smiles) Looks like you're not the trash the Omni Kings thought you were.
...
Out in the grand palace of the multiverse, the Omni Kings overheard what Hit said and immediately squee.
Both Zenos: OOOOOH!
Zeno 1: He got us there!
Zeno 2: He got us good!
...
Bergamo: Who're these people?
Gowasu: The army of Son Goku and Prince Vegeta's rival.
Frieza's ship deploys heavy cannons out of some of its hatches and begins to fire down on the surface while Shin and Tien try to attack from above! Tien fires a Dodon Ray at one of them and completely destroys it, only for another few to open from the rest of the hull and shoot back at him! One of them hits him and forces him to block the missiles while Shin takes his ki blades and flings them at them, slicing some of them in half and catching the blades when they come back to him like a boomerang. Mai, on the surface, takes cover from the missile fire coming from the shuttle behind the rocks in the crater, catching Shin's attention.
Mai ducking: Oh God, oh God, oh GOD! What do I do?! I've never been in this much trouble before!
Shin hovering down: Remember what Kusu said. They may be strong, but you have the power and imagination to beat them, like how you did against Zamasu. All you need is to find the opportunity.
Mai: But I don't know what to do when the time comes…!
Shin: Then perhaps I can give you an idea.
Supreme Kai takes his hand and holds it behind his head, spawning a round barrier of light behind him!
Mai: ...What is that?
Shin: To tell you the truth, I don't know. Zamasu had all these strange new abilities, I feel like he got them from fan fiction or outside in the Xenoverse. Like the Blades of Judgment, or Holy Wrath. Or the Flames of Retribution! But that's besides the point, dear Mai. You can manipulate your energy by using the ki inside you. Like this! (Stretches arms out)
Supreme Kai takes both his arms and extends the halo behind him, smacking two soldiers after him from both sides! He hops into the air like an angel and uses abilities like Zamasu once had, giving Mai a clever and familiar idea when several more special troops come by!
Mai: If I can think it, I can do it.
Mai concentrates and breaths in, holding her palms together and spawning raw sparks of ki from them. She supercharges them and spawns a slinky made of ki, surprising the soldiers and making them stop and laugh loudly!
Mai: H-hey! It's a first-timer! (Spawns ki cube) Nope. (Spawns ki bubble) No! (Spawns Ball of Yarn Magisword) What the...?! (Spawns ki blade that's dull) AHA! (Slashes at soldier and breaks blade) NANI?!
Soldiers: AHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Frieza from above: OOHOHOHOHO! Darling, if you're going to fight, you'll have to do better than that.
Suddenly Hit appears from a Time Skip directly in front of Frieza.
Frieza face to face with Hit's abs: Oh wow... I can't tell if it's the suit or-
Hit: Let that woman alone.
Frieza: And what do you intend to do about it, assassin? I'll have you know I've killed hundreds of mercenaries before. And I don't expect you to be any di-
Before Frieza could finish his sentence, Hit strikes him with his knee right into his forehead into the ship's deck, tilting the ship itself backward! For a second, it's enough to knock him out since he's powered down to his fourth form (AKA, the new first form). But he's still wide awake and in complete shock, speechless.
Frieza: …!
Hit: Maybe I'm no less than you...Emperor.
17 comes up next to Hit with his hands in his pockets.
17: Not bad, buddy.
Bergamo arrives with Majora by his side holding him carefully.
Bergamo: Uurgh… Hope I'm not getting in the way. I… (Cringes in pain) Urgh..! I'll tell ya, whatever Goku got back at the tournament must've been really painful! And here I thought Kaioken was bad enough!
17: Well, ya can't let typical Shonen character #1 have all the fun. (Looks at Frieza's ship) Speaking of, where's the girl version of the guy who screams Kakarot all the time?
Down at the sanctum, Kale is cornered and nearly buried under a crowd of the Sorbet Strikers all rapid-firing ki at her! It's at this point that she's pushed so much that she unleashes her Berserk state; this time with the purity of a Blue Saiyan God! She literally begins plowing through hordes of Frieza's Troops with glee, then stops and tosses several bolts of intense dark ki at the army that explode on impact and light up the skies!
Kale: HAHAHAAA! (Sees Caulifla glaring) Oh! Sorry, Caulifla. I just really got in the moment…
Caulifla: Nah, don't stop! I'm just wondering why I'm not in on the fun!
Krillin fighting against the soldiers: Take this! (Spawns destructo disks) Destructo Disk!
Krillin tosses his disks at the troops and saws them in half, but one of them catches both of them and breaks them. He shoots right at Krillin's forehead and brings him down for another shot, much to his fear!
Krillin: Oh no! This is gonna be the 4th time I've died in this series! I just hope if there's a timeline with another Krillin around, he's just fine.
Meanwhile in Dragon Ball GT...
GT Krillin: 17, wait!
GT Krillin with a thick mustache gets shot dead by a trenchcoat-wearing 17 on a highway before a downed 18!
...
Krillin: ...Juuuust fine.
Frieza Troop: Say goodnight, baldy. (Gets slashed in back) Ugh...?!
The trooper falls down with a massive cut on his back to Krillin's surprise. Coming from behind the corpse, Mai stands before him proudly with a royal blue scythe in her hand.
Krillin: Aw sick!
Mai: Yes! I'm awesome.
Krillin getting back up: Man, to think you used to be Pilaf's henchman and… Wait. Shouldn't you be, like, 50 by now?
Mai: That's right.
Krillin: ...Oookay. Let's just hope Trunks doesn't think about it too much.
Mai: Preach.
Back with Goku and Vegeta, they keep fighting the troops and manage to get an advantage over them by shooting beams in the ground beneath the sanctum that cause the magma in the planet to burst upward in waves of lava!
Vegeta: Phew..! Finally! Now I'm ready to take care of the lizard again.
Goku flying to Vegeta: Don't forget about me, Geets!
Vegeta: Oh great… Kakarot, why can't you just stay outta my way and let me get the kill?! You always steal my show!
Goku: Hey, you're the guy who killed entire planets, my friends, my food, and my emergency foods! I haven't killed anybody! Except for all the guys when I was a kid, Freezer, Broly, Cooler, Santa, some guy named Demigra when I was plucked out of time for something… OH! And that weird alien thing in Babadi's ship that one time you turned into-
Vegeta: Yes whatever. If it means so much to you, why don't you and I combine the last blow? As much as I hate it, at least we'd both get a win.
Goku turning Blue Kaioken: Now we're talkin'!
Vegeta turns Ultra Blue and both he and Goku fly up to Frieza while he's still knocked into his shuttle. But the evil Freezer immediately rises in divinity when he transforms into his True Golden Form, nearly blinding everyone around him in his bright light!
Golden Frieza: Hahaha! Goku and Vegeta. I was waiting for you two.
Hit: Oh, that's why you were just sitting there.
Bergamo: So, you're the empress of the galaxy Son Goku to the Tournament.
Golden Frieza: And you must be the furry I remember seeing being humiliated by the monkey a second time. I confess, I applaud you for stepping in, just so I know how much stronger he's become so I could prepare myself for this occasion. Starting… Wait, did you call me empress? (Blushes) N-nevermind, it really doesn't matter...
Frieza begins to power up again with an aura around him as he takes a stance; his eyes set solely on the Saiyans.
Majora still holding Bergamo: You know, perhaps we should help them. Even with their strength, it wouldn't hurt to have a backup.
17: Oh, trust me. You don't wanna say that around either of them. The tournament was one thing, but on a normal basis, I'm sure they'd just ignore you.
Bergamo: If these people we're fighting are clones, I hope there aren't any more of them anywhere in Universe 7.
17: …You wanna find out?
Mai runs towards more combat and shields the attacks of soldiers with ki blades like Shin's. She hacks and slashes at them, cutting off much of their limbs, only for more and more of them to pop up to continue the assault!
Tien using ki: These folk are a lot better than I thought they'd be.
Mai: Why is that?
Tien: We've fought soldiers like these guys a while ago. But here they're much more durable and in numbers. Whatever Frieza's done to make them must mean business. (Aims at groups) KIKOHO!
Tien uses his Tri-Beam on the incoming Sorbet Strikers and completely destroys them, only for more to arrive in even greater numbers from the back of Frieza's ship; catching Caulifla's attention.
Caulifla: That's where all those guys're comin' from!
Kale: I'll take care of it! (Rockets upward)
Kale jets to the ship and starts shooting and pulverizing the soldiers, easily busting through the lower hatch into the shuttle's interior! She slams two guards into the floors and tosses their bodies at the other enemies attempting to shoot at her. But noticeably, they're far weaker than the ones outside. Several of these lesser powerful soldiers all converge into the center of the ship where the hatch is and shoot rapidly at Kale attempting to damage her. But when they get closer and closer to her, 17 pokes one of them from behind and shoots a ki blast that goes right through him into a few of the others! Behind him, Bergamo walks over to a wall, leaning against it and looking through the haze from the smoke in the halls.
Bergamo: I don't see anyone else in here.
17: Oh good. They probably ran out of gibs.
At that moment, another Sorbet trooper bursts through the wall next to 17, almost hitting him! Instantly, Kale blasts the soldier down, splattering him across the room with one precise gamma bolt! After standing there frozen for a few seconds, she calms down, regressing back to a normal Super Saiyan form.
Bergamo: I didn't know you could do that.
Kale: Too bad. That took a lot out of me…
17: Hey chief, check this out.
17 steps through the gap from the elite trooper and stumbles into a dark laboratory of sorts, large enough to contain dozens of men. Each pod surrounding the group holds a squishy red substance hooked to a machine pumping fluids in them. Unnerved, Kale regresses back to her normal state and holds next to Bergamo, who's still weakened but able to stand with a hunch to face all the containers.
Bergamo: Freaky…
17: Trust me. This isn't the first time I've seen weird bio shit. You'll get used to it.
Around the corner, Berryblue, all by herself, hovers from behind one of the pods with her hands behind her back. She isn't phased by the fighters before her. She simply floats in front of them and continues to smirk.
Berryblue: Magnificent, aren't they?
Bergamo: Yes, for a couple of fleshy little orbs, I guess they are.
Kale: Who are you?
Berryblue: My name is Berryblue, and I am what you'd call the nanny of Lord Frieza.
17: Wow. Must be a complete shitshow coming from him.
Berryblue: No, it really isn't. I'm the only one who gets to tell him like it is. I've known him since birth, and when he died…twice.
Bergamo: How did he come back?
17: Oh, yeah. Forgot to tell ya. First time involved the Dragon Balls. Second time was thanks to Whis. That tall angel dude who babysits Beerus.
Bergamo: And they resurrected a supervillain why…?
17: Cause he helped save the universe. Though bringing back the multiverse was me. You're welcome by the way.
Kale: Are those the clones we've been fighting in those pods?
Berryblue: Yes. What you see are the embryos of his Sorbet Strikers. Frieza was obsessed with perfecting them and poured all his resources into the project, hoping to clone the perfect soldiers. Not unlike you.
Bergamo: You knew about Goku's wish too?
Berryblue: Some of it, yes. He was inspired by this project when he came to visit.
Kale: And I'm guessing you know we're not quite as strong as he is, do you…?
Berryblue: Perhaps not yet. You may not be your original selves, but you have the chance of improving where they could not. And by the looks of it, you've already begun to blossom. You'll be able to take on anyone, including Son Goku. (Hovers closer to Bergamo) Your final test isn't to achieve your next transformation to surpass the Saiyans. You either write your own story or return to his as yet another obstacle for him to face.
Bergamo: …But, aren't you supposed to be stopping us? I mean…your boss is evil and whatnot.
Berryblue: You know I have a life outside of the Frieza Force. I've been around for eons, have seen many wonderous creatures come and go. Why waste such fantastic warriors such as you?
Berryblue gestures her hand towards Bergamo. Instantly, his wounds heal and he stands straight, feeling his muscles returning to shape, much to his awe.
17: Wow…! Hey, ya mind sharin' anymore of that energy? I've got a pretty nasty papercut.
Berryblue smirking: …Nope.
This attendant of Frieza's hovers backward and phases into a hidden pod in a wall behind her. It quickly takes off with the press of a button, ejecting from the lab and the rest of the cruiser at lightning speed! Golden Frieza notices this from where he's facing Goku and Vegeta, though he assumes it's only a ki blast from within his ship.
Golden Frieza: I've been waiting for this moment for quite a while. But I didn't think it'd be this soon.
Goku: Me neither. It hasn't even been a year since we used the Super Dragon Balls!
Vegeta: No wonder the Earth one hates us…
Golden Frieza strikes first, throwing a heavy hook at Vegeta, who perfectly blocks the attack with his arms! He takes his knee and hits Frieza in the gut, but he grabs his leg and tosses him away! Goku comes in for a barrage of punches and kicks at him, which Frieza at his strongest state manages to dish back twice as hard.
Frieza throwing hands: You're significantly stronger than before, Goku. But not nearly as strong as me.
Goku: We'll see about that!
Vegeta comes from behind Frieza and shoots a larger Galick Gun at his back, damaging him! Goku takes Frieza and headbutts him further into the air, but the villain stops himself from falling and shoots a Death Beam at his chest! This blows Goku back and injures him several times more when he shoots even more beams at him. He uses his other hand to shoot at Vegeta, but he flies in another direction away from the blasts until he can get his bearings. He turns to Frieza again and dashes straight for him while he's still shooting at him. He uses afterimage, focusing on Frieza's stomach, and hitting it hard causing Frieza to spit out blood! He gets angry and smacks the Saiyan beneath him, only for Goku to return the favor and shoot a small Kamehameha at him! Vegeta charges his palms and together, both he and Goku shoot a Final Kamehameha right into Frieza, which places him into a beam struggle with the two! While Golden Frieza is still holding onto it, the two Saiyan Warriors overpower him and almost kill him when the beam from behind comes to swallow him!
Golden Frieza losing power: Urgh…! You two monkeys can't be trusted, you know! (Goes into fourth form) I know these other fighters aren't here just for me! Soon you two will know how your desire for strength will be your undoing!
Frieza, reduced to his mere third form, just barely escapes the blast as it breaks through the atmosphere! This form's speed is enough to get him away from the Ultra Army fast enough before they could go after him as he makes a hasty retreat to outer space.
Vegeta: HA! Coward! He's so scared to die he went down to that useless third form of his!
Goku: ...Actually, best buddy, I think he might have a point…
Vegeta: Why?
Goku pointing to the sky: Cause of that…!
Near the sun, a small warm green laser of sorts darts down to Frieza's cruiser, instantly exploding it from the inside and out! The beam travels through it into the center of the Sanctuary which startles Gowasu, who's teleported away with Kusu! The fighters below are blown a huge distance from the blast as it nukes the Time Chamber within seconds! The rest of the Sorbet Strikers are gunned down by the mysterious shots from above as they rapidly descend like hellfire! The last larger, redder ball of ki comes down to the forest floor beneath the Lookout, completely erasing it in a flaming inferno, marking the symbols of a God of Destruction along the surface! The fiery remains of the cruiser come crashing down thereafter, continuing to burst.
Meanwhile in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber...
Hopp continuously paces herself around the empty white space back and forth in a state of panic, while Sorrel lays against the Time Chamber's ruins and a pile of books fast asleep with her bean hat in her hands.
Hopp walking around: This is really getting under my skin, Sorrel. (Faces Sorrel) …Sorrel?
Sorrel sleeping: Zzzzzzzzz
Hopp poking her: Sorrel.
Sorrel awakening: Huh? (Stretches) Aaaah, man, I had the strangest dream. Kusu was in it. Some short blue floating lady was in it. You weren't.
Hopp: I wish I were! I've never been this scared! Not even at the tournament when we all faded into blackness! How long've we been here?
Sorrel: Days.
Hopp: DAYS?!
Sorrel: About 3 to be exact. We've been asleep much of the time, so it kinda passed me by. It's a good thing they've got food in this joint.
Hopp: Food or not, I'm still afraid we'll never get outta here! It's like we'll be spending an eternity in nothing! What happens when we run out of food? What's gonna happen when we die? Will people even know we're gone?! (Hugs sides) I dunno! It's enough to drive you mad!
Sorrel: Well no need to fear! (Gets up) That Gravy lady Kusu brought up left notes on how to use that nifty teleportin' technique Goku uses! All ya gotta do is recreate where you wanna go in your head and focus on a good ki signature, like so... (Puts fingers on forehead and stresses in concentration) Hnrrrrrrr…!
Hopp putting her hand on Sorrel's shoulder: Sorrel, baby, even if what you've read could work, you can't just learn it on your first t-
Both Sorrel and Hopp instantly pop out of the time chamber, leaving the notes of The Mother behind on a page that reads, "The Other Dimensions."
End of Chapter 3
