Last time on Dragon Ball Z: When Ballistic and Ka'en crash the wedding there is hell to pay. When Mystic realizes that a battle with Ballistic could destroy the entire planet along with kill those he truly cares about he decides to make the ultimate sacrifice, a kamikaze attack that killed both him and Ballistic. Uno lay in the debris of the church, angry at Mystic's decision but deciding to honor Mystic's wish he wanted to continue the search for the dragonballs but Ka'en was not there to play. He rose out of the massive hole in the ground using the molten lava tapped by the explosion. Ka'en has also tapped the hidden power of the dragonball, to reach his ultimate level. Is that enough to defeat Uno or will Uno stomp him out like a match? Find out today on Dragon Ball Z:

The Third Dragonball

Uno growled as he felt the heat rise around him. He stood up slowly and slid his right leg back as he crouched halfway down and held up his arms, balling his hands into fists. A sneer rolled across his face as the first licks of flames jumped into the air then fell back into the hole. A bead of sweat from the heat slid slowly down Uno's temple. The first thing that was seen was Ka'en's now red orange, spiky hair which was now spiked on the top with just two long side hairs on each side of his face. His eyes were closed but as his full face was out of the hole he shot them open wide. With burning rage they were pure red all over. The soul piercing effect of them was back with a vengeance since they could almost melt stones down into the very lava that was powering him up.

Finally Ka'en was fully lifted up out of the hole, he hovered a few feet ahead then landed on the ground. He was now wearing a cloak of black and red, with white loose pants like Piccolo's and black shoes. He lifted and tapped his left toe into the back of his right foot and reached up pushing a strand of red orange hair behind his left ear. He then looked over at Uno nonchalantly then sighed deeply. "I learned something over the course of this Uno", he said. "Life is going to be hard for both of us but it will be harder for me if you survive this. In fact only one of us leaves here today alive and Uno." Suddenly the dragonball in his chest started glowing bright red so bright that the three stars could no longer be seen. Suddenly the boundaries were set as lines of lava shot through the ground created a football field sized fighting arena, anything out of that was cut off from the lava. "And Uno", continued Ka'en, "I can tell you this much, I promise to make this quick and painless for you." Uno grinned. "You are too cocky, you think you will win before it has begun", said Uno. Ka'en simply laughed. "You are a fool Uno for the truth is that I have already won this. Watch." Said Ka'en as he held his arms out to the sides and held his hands open palms facing the sky. He threw his head back and roared as lava shot from the ground and flew up over his head and into his hands. He roared as if it was hurting him and closed his eyes as a thick metal rod, two feet taller then Ka'en himself was being formed. In those three extra feet a double sided axe blade was being formed from the liquid hot magma. He then spun it and slammed the bottom of it into the ground next to him.

Uno stood up straight and thought to himself, "That is a powerful weapon, big and strong but it has to be too big for him to swing fast. So if I get close enough I will be out range." With a plan of attack he got ready, he got down and prepared to attack. Then he growled and disappeared. Ka'en blinked slowly and swung his massive axe around in the air then slammed it down into the ground. Ka'en then slowly stood back up lifting the blade of the axe back into the air. Uno appeared a few moments later crashing onto the ground, on his stomach. He was grabbing his head, moaning in pain. Uno had gone into it thinking he was going to swing around and kick Ka'en's feet from under him, but instead Ka'en had cleverly spun the blade and slammed the head of the axe into the ground, in turn Uno ran into the blade head first. He groaned and rubbed his head and slowly stood up. "After the first attack you are already down? This is going to be a lamer fight then I would have imagined", said Ka'en rubbing his head slowly. I cannot believe you are so tough that you beat Beethoven and Project X. Burto I can see but them? What did you do, poison them?" Uno slowly stood up and roared as he powered up to the equivalence of a Super Sayjin Two, Ka'en watched with surprise.

Uno's hair was whipping upwards and if he could his hair would be golden and his eyes would be green. He held up his hands above his head as blue energy started creating a lance in both his hands. Ka'en roared and swung his axe over his head and slammed it down into Uno. Uno's lance was finished by the time Ka'en's axe as done so he easily defended himself. Uno's lance was four feet, eleven inches with a two foot, jagged, dragon blade making the entire lance come out to an almost seven foot tall weapon. Lightning seemed to strike the area around them and their weapons. Ka'en growled and started pushing down on his axe harder trying to break through and slice Uno in two. Uno grinned and held his own as he closed his eyes and gathered energy. He then quickly opened his eyes and pushed up against Ka'en, using the new energy to give himself strength, especially in his lower back and legs so that he had enough power to push back. He quickly pushed up hard and threw Ka'en's arms into the arms. Due to the size and weight of the axe, Ka'en fell back a few steps, which gave Uno enough time to twirl his lance and bring it down onto Ka'en's left shoulder.

Everything seemed to stop then start up again slowly. Ka'en fell down slowly onto his left knee and grabbed his left shoulder, his skin had torn where the lance had come down upon it. He grimaced in pain but what surprised Uno the most was when blood did not come out of the wound instead liquid hot magma. Ka'en looked up and roared, he lifted his axe into the air and sung it down fast. Uno quickly jumped back trying to defend himself once again but this time the blade of the axe hit the handle of the lance, even though the lance handle was pure steel the axe blade somehow cut right through it. Uno's eyes went wide as the head of the lance and the bottom fell into the ground on the sides of him. "You made me bleed!" Screamed Ka'en as the magma started to cool and harden. As Ka'en reached up and tore off the rock revealing a healed shoulder Uno spoke, "But that was like instant scab healing. You cannot tell me that, that irritates you so much that you want some more of this!" Uno roared and exploded going up to Super Sayjin Three form, technically. The roared and leapt forward swinging his right fist towards Ka'en, it was about to slam into his face when Uno was caught by a wall of flames which jumped up defending Ka'en. "Even at your strongest stage you cannot defeat me and my monstrous firestorm attacks. In fact let us see what my ultimate attack really is." He said raising his hands into the air.

Suddenly large areas of the ground tore open and a ton of lava and fire shot high into the air and created a massive ball of pure fire. Out of it shot out a head of a large dragon, much like the earth's first eternal dragon. It shot out and crawled across the sky wrapping around then looking down at Uno, it roared. Ka'en jumped up into the air and grabbed onto the dragon's neck. His hands griped the neck and squeezed. To Uno's surprise the dragon complied and swung it's massive body upward and in a brilliant flash of light the entire dragon turned into a massive sword. Ka'en roared and swung the massive sword above his head. He landed with a crash and stood up holding the sword. "This is my final attack, my Sword of Eternal Fire. Even though it is huge it is not a slow weapon, or maybe I should just show you!" He roared and attacked…To Be Continued
