Chapter 35 Goten's True Power

The whole battleground was eerily quiet, the only sound being the calm yet foreboding roar of Super Goten's newly attained form. Standing still arms fisted by his sides, his new glowing red and green menacing eyes stared coldly at the one who had driven him into this new frontier of strength, Xavier. Surrounding the young Demi Saiyan an intense purple aura which made his similarly colored hair blow majestically with its winds. The calm purple of his hair and aura contrasted his predatory looking crystal like red and green eyes. It sparkled within with orange particles like divine ki though the outer edge was wavy and primal. Every soul for miles stared on in awe, unsure if what they were seeing or if it was real and not some horror induced hallucination. "G-Goten?" Super Trunks muttered nervously in awe but also fear of his best friend's change, given what happened with two of his counterparts, he was scared that his friend had gone off the deep end. "What the hell is this?!" Beerus exclaimed absolutely beside himself feeling the absurdly gargantuan energy he was sensing from Super Goten, it easily eclipsing his own and it wasn't far off from Whis's peak. The klntar were also looking on with primal curiosity. Eventually one klntar smiled with sadistic bloodthirsty joy and sprinted towards the transformed child. It let out a feral shriek leaping forward to its prey. As soon as the klntar made contact with Super Goten's unique aura, it was set ablaze and vaporized within seconds. All the klntar in the area and most of the fighters were blown away. For the first time, many of the klntar showed a modicum of fear and anxiety after one of their own was so easily dispatched. Before the klntar could make another move, suddenly some of the tiny orange particles in Super Goten's aura stopped moving. They then seemed to scatter and multiply in multiple directions. Like heat seeking missiles, the particles specifically targeted the klntar, each particle attaching itself to one and then bounce their unlucky hosts around the place like rag dolls, occasionally colliding with each other. Within a couple minutes, all the klntar in the area were in snared by the unusual attacking particles, the rest retreating back to other areas of the city, realizing it wasn't worth the risk. Super Goten let out another bloodcurdling scream, this one sending purple shockwaves through the air, making everyone else cover their ears in pain. "Owww! Even his yells are overwhelming!" Piccolo exclaimed him as well as Beerus and Shadow suffering particularly high amounts of sensory overload because of their shared trait of big, sensitive ears. When the shockwaves reached the klntar, the orange particles on them suddenly ballooned into purple blasts of energy that started shooting to the ground, coming closer together. Soon, the barrage of klntar hosted blasts all hit the ground in one spot consecutively one by one until their was nothing but a pothole crater filled with half regenerated klntar. Super Goten lifted off his spot and floated over to right above his handiwork. Unblinking he looked down to see his job incomplete. Silently, Super Goten extended one hand out in a fist and then flicked his middle finger open. With that flip off, all the klntar in the pit were engulfed by a giant beam of bright purple energy and were all disintegrated in seconds, their last shrieks of anger and pain echoing out through the city and everyone's ears. If the fighter's eyes widened much more, their eyes would have been popping out of their eyes. "Unbelievable" MC Krillin muttered stuttering his pupil nodding in agreement beside him totally speechless. "Daddy, is that guy gonna save us or hurt us?" A cell junior asked his father quietly very anxious. Cell was left frozen in shock by everything that had happened in the last five minutes, barely hearing his child's question. "I-I really hope he is our side son, I can tell you that much" Cell answered unsure shaking. "Oh but if he comes to hurt us, you can protect us right dad?" Another cell junior asked hopefully. "Uh no, no I wouldn't son, if he comes after us, we're leaving, we would be so fucked if we stayed and tried to fight him, might consider doing that right now even" Cell responded very quickly, not skipping a beat, totally sure and serious. Hovering in the sky, Super Goten lifted his head back up silently his cold green eyes meeting Xavier's empty black ones again, the latter having not moved or even flinched through the entire klntar massacre sequence. Super Goten descended back to the ground just in front of the now smoking death pot crater he created. He started marching methodically towards his real target. Said target responded by marching himself towards Super Goten. The two eventually meet each other, inches apart from each other. The air grew tense as both opponents's evil looking eyes locked with other, studied each other carefully. Neither blinked, tilting their heads in unison, which unnerved some of the others. "Oh god, what if some of that thing's evil is seeping into the kid's?!" Baby speculated nervously. Korra was using her spiritual connections to try and peer into the two son children's minds but she was blocked by some mysterious dark forces within both of them. Super Trunks backed away with a sad face, hoping that both his friend would win and hopefully return to normal afterwards. As much as this change was necessary, Super Trunks couldn't help but feel bad that his best friend had snapped and was now acting eerily similar to his devil of a twin brother from another dimension. He now really regretted telling Goten that he was worthless as he was before, now he just hoped some of his usual self remained. After a few more moments of staring at each other, Super Goten threw a unseeable punch at Xavier's face though the latter managed to barely catch it. Unlike other times he had caught someone's attack, Xavier didn't immediately twist or break his arm. He couldn't because Super Goten was stronger and was the one in control. "Die" Super Goten whispered so quietly only Xavier could hear it before shifting his fisted hand into a grasp and then forcefully bended Xavier's outstretched hand to hit himself in the face, making himself momentarily dizzy and back away clumsily. Super Goten then teleported behind Xavier and kneed his other dimension twin brother in his back, right in the middle, digging it in a few inches making it bleed profusely. Letting out a small grunt, Xavier clearly felt the pain hunching forward and shaking. "I don't believe it, he's actually damaging him" Piccolo stuttered out him and everyone else shocked at Super Goten's display of strength. Super Goten teleported again, this time to be in front of Xavier. Super Goten stared at Xavier gaining a sadistic grin seeing his foe in agony. "Aww, are you hurt bro?" Super Goten asked tauntingly with fake sadness in his voice, the sound of which made Xavier raise his head back up to look at him. "Good, that's just how I like you" Super Goten said in a low, dangerous dark tone. Xavier stopped shaking and straightened himself out, getting over the pain though his back was still bleeding a little. "He he he, I'm going to enjoy this, let's have some fun bro" Super Goten said menacingly gritting his teeth in bloodthirsty anticipation, face darkening as he stared at Xavier's black canvas eyes, the sight of which unnerved even Vegeta. He reached his arms up into his aura and with his mind, forged a knife made out of bright purple fire. He then violently snapped Xavier in the neck with the fire knife. Xavier let out several loud grunts and used both his hands to try and pry Super Goten's knife out of him as it was driven in deeper into his neck and burning him. Super Goten then abruptly ripped the flaming knife out, it disintegrating and leaving Xavier with a partially cauterized bleeding neck wound. Super Goten smirked in satisfaction before jumping back a ways away from Xavier. "Ahhhhh!" Super Goten screamed as he concentrated powering up, his purple aura and orange particles increasing in intensity and his green pupils glowing in his red eyes. With a mighty roar, Super Goten dashed to Xavier and performed a series of faster than lightning fast kicks and punches all around Xavier's body, some of which he did from a distance and instead his energy took on manifestations of his attacks as big as his whole body. At one point, Super Goten zoomed up into the air just above Xavier. He then seemingly created ten see through copies of himself and then they all came rocketing down and kicked Xavier in the head. In reality Super Goten had just used the afterimage technique and kicked Xavier's head ten times in milliseconds. All of the blows made Xavier fall to his knees, still breathing but it sounded more ragged now. Super Goten smiled sinisterly and then proceeded to conjure up four purple blades of energy. Two of them nailed into Xavier's hands and the other two into his feet, effectively pinning him to the ground. Xavier shook and yanked around trying to free himself, still not screaming but clearly distressed. Super Goten lifted himself into the air smiling sinisterly showing all of his teeth to have sharpened somewhat. An angry frown returned to his face as his energy started to condense into his feet. He then fired many repeated spin kicked energy beams at Xavier cratering the spot he lay and shrouding it in dust. Finally, Super Goten let out a furious scream as his crystalline red eyes and green reptilian pupils began glowing their respective colors intensifying before unleashing purple eye beams the size of a Kamehameha or Galick Gun at the same spot creating a massive explosion that was so bright it blinded everyone hundreds of miles away that looked at it. The blast so powerful most of the fighters had to shield themselves very harshly to keep themselves from being blown away. Eventually the light faded and once the fighters were able to open their own eyes they could make out Super Goten still floating in the same spot in the sky staring down at his target area to watch for any signs Xavier was alive. "Incredible" Slade said with an air of admiration and respect in his voice. "Yeah, that's one way to describe it" Starscream agreed. Super Trunks after dusting himself off and coughing a little, looked at his best friend with awe but also anxiousness, he had just unlocked power rivaled only by a handful of those around them, expended a great deal of it and he wasn't even breathing hard. It was awesome but the new power also felt darker than his old power did and he appeared to be taking pleasure in torturing his foe. Though Xavier definitely more than deserved it, it made him scared that his friend wasn't the same person anymore. "G-g-got-en?" Super Trunks stuttered shaking with fear and tears forming in his eyes while taking baby steps towards Super Goten, hoping his friend was still, himself. Before he could get an answer, the dust cleared and it revealed Xavier, on the ground on his black, mask and other clothing burned to some degree and lying there lifeless. "Is it over?" MC Krillin asked to no one in particular quietly hoping the answer was yes. Everyone was asking the same thing in their minds. Sadly their answer came in the form of Xavier abruptly sitting back up like a mummy coming out of its tomb only its arms weren't stretched out. "Ok... that's just creepy" Yamcha said freaked out by the almost supernatural nature of this being of pure evil. Xavier slowly rose to his feet until he was standing tall and still, as though he didn't just get injured a mere couple minutes ago. Super Goten gently lowered himself to the ground to right in front of Xavier. "Not done are you?" Super Goten asked tauntingly and then smirked. "Perfect, it would be terrible if the fun ended now, let's continue" Super Goten said sadistically. The demonic looking child pulled back his hand reading up yet another punch. He lunched at his target, only for his target to catch his fist. "What?! Ahhh!" Super Goten exclaimed as he felt some of the bones in his hand break as Xavier began crushing it. Everyone else gasped at the sight too. Super Goten thrashed around kicking Xavier with his legs and punching with his free hand, but now they appeared to only bounce off the boogeyman. Xavier then twisted Super Goten's wrist and then slammed Super Goten's knee making him fall to the ground. "What the hell?!" Frieza yelled out shocked, he knew Saiyans recovered extremely quickly and get zenkais from them, it's half the reason he destroyed their home world , but never this fast. Super Goten painfully stood up growling at Xavier. "Alright, let's try that ag-ahhh!" Super Goten's comeback was stuffed out by Xavier pounding his side twice and then picking him up throwing him hard onto a building wall. Super Goten couldn't so much as breathe as Xavier kept bashing him on the wall. He tried desperately to break free but all his attempts only briefly stunned Xavier before he would immediately resume his assault. "Goten!" Super Trunks screamed out in terror and horror seeing his friend getting beaten to death. Xavier finally paused his torture. Super Goten was left bleeding from his mouth, cheeks and legs breathing horsely, coughing up blood, his head drooped down. Suddenly, Xavier kneed Super Goten in his manhood and then again on his chest, knocking the air out of him and completely disorienting him. "Noooo!" Super Trunks wailed out powering up, his blue hair going back to golden like regular super sayian yet his aura remained blue and divine lookingwith a yellow center within and his eyes completely whitened out as they glowed. Super Trunks was now in super saiyan rage form. With his new strength, Super Trunks punched Xavier away from Super Goten, sending him a few feet away and onto the ground again. "Goten!" Are you alright?!" Super Trunks asked frantically, his form calming down as he ran to his injured best friend lifting his head as he was barely conscious. "T-trunks?" Super Goten answered weakly smiling. "Oh thank god" Super Trunks said teary eyed hugging Super Goten. There brother like moment was ruined by the telltale sound of Xavier getting back up again. In seconds Xavier was once again standing strong ready for more carnage. Abruptly Whis appeared behind Xavier. "Ok, I think that's about enough out of you" Whis said in his usual nonchalant calm manner before taking his hand and chopping Xavier in the back of his head. Normally this would have knocked out or killed anyone, with Whis being an extremely powerful angel. This did not happen however. Instead Xavier turned around his whole body to face his attempted attacker. Whis was left befuddled and shocked. Before he could process the terrifying reality, Xavier violently grabbed Whis's head. The boogeyman man dug his thumbs into Whis's eyes, poking and gouging them out as the rest of his fingers dug into his head crushing it and eventually his brain. After a few seconds, Xavier stopped, letting Whis and his ravaged head fall to the ground, dead. Beerus and and everyone else was shocked into deafening silence. Xavier was unstoppable and he intended to keep going until he was somehow stopped. "What now..." GT Trunks asked grimly. No one had an answer. How will Super Goten and his friends stop the personification of evil itself?
