Chapter Six - Lightning crashing throughout the atmosphere of the entire
Kai Planet Gohan was more powerful than any of the others even dreamed or
even hoped was possible. He was too strong for them to tell exactly how
much stronger than them or even Buu he was. Buu was the same. They couldn't
seem to tell who had the advantage. Until the Majin Battle began.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Gohan cried as he attacked with unrelenting force. His aura flaming with fury much like the storm that burned within the Mystic Champion's soul. Eidolon was being used like a pathetic tool and he hated it. He watched as Buu dodged and blocked, using Eidolon's skill and power. Buu flared his Darkness Flame and then charged a blast in his palms with the same kind of power. The power of Darkness/
"Ready Gohan!? Take this!! DARKNES BLIGHT!!!" Dark Buu yelled and laughed as he released the most powerful blast of Darkness ever. Gohan caught the blast in his left palm and held it back with ease. He tired of the little game and cancelled the blast out with his own power. He was serious. Buu was to die. He appeared behind the demon and backhanded him into the dirt. Buu picked himself up and launched a barrage of blasts much more intense than his last attack. Gohan was hammered by every blast, each were enough to kill whom he was only a day before with ease and with enough energy left over to do it again. Gohan appeared from the haze, in perfect health. His silver halo was brighter than ever as the Mystic Champion's power level rose exponentially.
"He's stronger! How did Gohan change like that!!" Piccolo freaked. He, 18, Trunks, Goten, and Baba landed beside the others. Baba used her magic to bring them to the Kai Planet, the realized.
"We aren't sure, Piccolo. He just appeared at this new stage of power," Goku explained. They filled them in on everything up to where they were now.
"He took Eidolon?" Piccolo trembled. He realized exactly how much a problem that was. But seeing Gohan slacking the mega Buu around with ease kept his worries to a minimal.
Gohan appeared behind the Mystic Champion and hammered with him both fists as one. Buu blasted through the earth. He dug himself out and reformed.
"THIS MAKES NO SENSE! HOW!? HOW?!! HOW CAN HE BE STRONGER THAN ME!!!" Buu raged. Lightning spewed from his aura as his power rose from his anger.
"He gets stronger the angrier he gets," Gohan noticed. He aimed his right palm and powered a very familiar blast.
"WHAT'S THIS?!" Buu screamed in fear as Gohan channeled his power into his attack.
"ULTIMA KAI GENOCIDE!" Gohan cried. He sent the most powerful Kai attack in existence careening straight into Buu. Buu was ripped apart and scattered all over the planet. Gohan sensed his magic was active and he sensed his working with Eidolon's magic. Both magics were working in hyper drive in order to keep Buu alive. Gohan watched as Buu's signal faded. He was masking it. He flew over to the others and landed.
"That was awesome, Gohan!" Krillin yelled. Videl ran up and gave him a hug. He hugged and kissed her back and separated from her.
"It's not over! Guys listen to me! Each of you are powerful but nowhere near enough! Buu is still out there and he's coming back! Our battle is about to reach its zenith and the Kai System probably will not survive! Listen to me! Buu and I will clash and everything will be decimated! I need you all to leave now!" Gohan ordered. What he was saying was true. But what he was mainly concerned with was Buu absorbing someone else. If Buu as much as even absorbed Krillin or Videl, he'd have an advantage over Gohan in power and speed. Perhaps skill as well.
"Gohan..." Goku said. Gohan turned to face his father. Goku saw someone different looking back at him. "He's right, guys. We have to head out now! These 2 are out of our league. I never thought I'd be the one to admit this, but we're more of a burden than any kind of help. Grab hold and we'll leave for Grand Kai's planet," Goku said. Vegeta laughed like his old dark self.
"Cowards! Run if you want to! You're all too weak to handle the battle! Gohan and I shall remain then. We will bring Buu down," Vegeta said. His arms were crossed and he was smirking with pride.
"Vegeta are you insane?! You're as strong as Goku, you can't stand any better chance here than he could himself!" Piccolo yelled. Vegeta laughed again. He flared into Super Saiyan and his body bulked. He was way too strong to be a normal Super Saiyan.
"No way!" Krillin jerked.
"That's right. I realized it during the battle. For a short while, I can become a Legendary Super Saiyan at will," Vegeta laughed.
"But you're not able to sustain the form naturally, Vegeta! Doing so may kill you!" Shin warned. Vegeta laughed. He transformed into a Legendary Super Saiyan 3 and his power level knocked them all back except for Gohan. Even Gohan had to admit Vegeta wasn't weak in this form at all. Even compared to him and Buu. Goku nodded.
"Go guys. Vegeta and I will finish things up here," Gohan said. They all vanished together.
"Are you ready, Gohan?" Vegeta asked. Gohan nodded. They both blasted off together at a speed impossible to see.
~~~~~~~~~~ Earth ~~~~~~~~~~
"HHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!" came a loud cry. A blast of wind that rocked the entire Lookout came surging from the Time Chamber. Tein emerged beside Yamcha. Dende watched as they appeared.
"What the..." the Guardian said.
"Hey Dende," Yamcha said. "Where is 18 and Piccolo? We want to fight them." His voice was somewhat like Mystic Champion Gohan's only it was darker. It sounded more demonic. Yamcha was smirking darkly and his eyes were darker. His hair was upward in thick spikes and he was much bulkier than before. He was as big as Piccolo and Tein was larger still. Dende could tell their powers were enormous.
"They left for the Kai Planet. Buu is back and they are fighting with all of their powers," Dende said, telling them what Shin had just told him telepathically only seconds before they arrived.
"Think we can make the jump?" Tein asked.
"I don't know. These are radical new powers we haven't had much time to practice with," Yamcha admitted. Tein raised 2 fingers to his forehead and Yamcha did the same. They both vanished in a flash.
~~~~~~~~~~ Kai Planet ~~~~~~~~~~
"HAHAHAHA!" Vegeta cried. He and Gohan were sparing. Vegeta was quick and agile. He had to be even more powerful than Galaphile was. He was holding his own at the low level Gohan limited himself to. Vegeta backed off and prepared to power down, strangely exhausted.
"Where is that blasted Majin!" he yelled, out of breath.
"I can't sense him any where. Magic and ki levels are completely erased. But I know he can't be dead. He sensed him rushing to hide his power," Gohan said. Vegeta turned when it hit him. Pink ooze collapsed around his body and he was absorbed soon after. A wind rocked the area as Buu formed. He wore Vegeta's sleeveless purple training gi and his leather vest. He still had the white pants all forms of Buu had and Eidolon's wings and horn. He still used the Darkness Flame as well. Gohan jerked in surprise as Buu's power rose from nothing all the way up to a level even he didn't want to face alone. His eyes were wide and his trembled in a mix of rage and fear. That's when 2 figures appeared on each side of him. Tein to his left and Yamcha to his right. Gohan sensed the dramatic increase in their powers and realized they were being charged with Darkness. They were stronger but nowhere near enough. Ultimate Buu formed, laughing and taunting.
"I have way more power than before!" he laughed as he used Vegeta's Legendary power to his liking.
"He's impossible!" Tein jerked.
"We're in way over our heads!" Yamcha declared even though he took a defensive stance anyways. Gohan smirked for the first time since he had his truest power released. Buu attacked. Gohan blocked hard and was thrown back. He was just realizing how strong Buu had become. He raised his ki again and threw forth a powerful wave. Buu dodged and they clashed. They rose into the air and lightning spewed. Gohan blocked and parried with all of his heart and soul. Buu laughed and landed a blow. Gohan struck the ground and dug a hundred foot trench clear through it. He powered up and rose.
"HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!" he cried as he summoned his maximum Mystic Champion strength. Buu backed off as Gohan released everything. The Mystic attacked and dropped Buu hard. The demon rolled hard to his right to avoid the second kick. He kicked upward with both feet and landed a hard double blow to Gohan's chest. One of Vegeta's moves, Gohan noticed. He flipped and landed and aimed with hands. He sent a Kai Flash into Buu, tearing the demon apart. He reformed and attacked. Gohan flipped over the kick and noticed as Buu head tendril wrapped him. He jerked but Buu was using a magical field to hold him. He pounded Gohan for what seemed to be forever. He threw the Mystic into the dirt and powered a Darkness Blight. He eradicated everything that was Gohan. But Gohan regenerated from a spark of Magic and came in hard. He bombed Buu with another Ultima Kai Genocide. Buu was blown apart. The demon used Eidolon's magic to reform this time. He powered up a Final Flash and unleashed it with all of his fury. Gohan realized Vegeta's Ki Fusion Engine and Eidolon's Darkness Flame were deceptively augmenting the blast. Gohan dodged right and blasted off. The blast followed him. Gohan was shocked. The Final Flash was a final massive strike. Not even Vegeta had ever mastered how to control it like that. Gohan stopped and allowed the blast to strike him for force. The explosion was enormous.
"To the end of the Mystic," Buu laughed.
Then the cloudy haze faded and Gohan emerged, Shine-Shield fully active and strained nearly to its limits. Gohan faded the shield and turned to Buu. He brought both hands to his right.
"So it's going to be like that, eh, Gohan?" Buu laughed. He charged another Darkness Blight.
"Kamehame--HAAAAAAA!" the Mystic Champion cried as he sent forth the bulk of his complete strength. Buu launched Eidolon's Darkness Blight and the waves clashed with tremendous force. Lightning spewed into the air as they struggled for control. Gohan's regenerative magic was running overtime to keep his energy up high enough to sustain his blast. Buu was using both his magic and Eidolon's to gain the advantage. He forced Gohan's wave back and the Mystic nearly faltered. Buu was still only using a third of his complete power. Vegeta was making him unstoppable!
"Gohan! You have to fight him!" Tein yelled.
"Come on, Tein! Let's go and help him out a bit," Yamcha yelled. They appeared behind Buu and charged up their newfound powers. They both launched Darkness Blight Waves of their own and sent them crashing into Buu's back. The demon was blown forward and Gohan took advantage of the situation. He then launched Ultima Kai Genocide and watched as Buu was eradicated. The demon reformed in second, this time his magic and ki levels were much lower and he was very much out of breath. It had been the first time Buu had shown exhaustion.
"Well now that was an attack," Buu gasped. Gohan was drained and he knew it. He caught his breath and Gohan could sense his magic and ki returning to normal levels slowly but steadily.
"I can't believe he isn't dead after that!" Tein yelled in shock.
"Tell be about it, man! He's wicked!" Yamcha stammered. Buu turned to the humans and laughed. He shot his arms like projectiles, disconnecting them from his body. He regrew new arms and watched as his old appendages melted into goo and wrapped around the human warriors. Tein flared a barrier just before the contact was made but Yamcha was too late. He was taken and absorbed in seconds. Buu changed again and his power soared. His Darkness Flame drew from both Eidolon's and Yamcha's Darkness powers. He laughed as Tein struggled. Gohan appeared and tore the ooze from the human warrior and blasted it from existence. Buu frowned. He sent a blast of wind into Gohan, easily knocking him back. Tein was enveloped again by Buu's body and then assimilated. Gohan watched as Ultimate Buu's power level tripled from what it was since he first took Vegeta.
"They didn't deserve that!" Gohan raged.
"Perhaps not. But I'm not interested in being fair and doing the right thing. I'm interested in bringing you to your knees, Gohan," Ultimate Buu laughed. Gohan was struggled to stay conscious. His energy was slipping away. His silver halo dimmed to an off white and his hair grew darker. He was slowly reverting to his former self.
~~~~~~~Grand Kai Planet~~~~~~~
"He's loosing it!" Old Kai yelled. Shin had made a second trip to get him.
"What are you talking about?" Goten asked.
"Gohan's power level is regressing because he cannot sustain Mystic Champion form! He need to be restored or Buu will run us down!" Old Kai replied. Shin nodded and he and Fat Buu vanished. ~~~~~~~~~~Kai Planet~~~~~~~~~~
Gohan struck the dirt where Buu continued to pound him with energy lances. The he faded from Mystic Champion form down to his natural Mystic state. His ki and magic were dropping further still.
"Gohan!" Shin yelled as he appeared. He landed beside the fading hero and began his spell of regeneration. Gohan jerked a bit but he was still fading too fast. Fat Buu kicked in a kind of makeshift magic generator, pumping a thousand times the magic into Gohan the Kai was. Gohan's muscles bulged a bit as they grew stronger after sustaining damage as all Saiyans do. Scratches and bruises faded and deep cuts sealed and scabs faded. Burns were cooled and the skin restored as bone were mended. Gohan coughed up a final bit of blood as his magic and ki were restored to full. Fat Buu fell over, unconscious from the loss of so much magic which gave him life. Shin was fine, standing strong still. Gohan stood and powered up. He closed his eyes and found something new. He thought he had lost the power of the Mystic Wave Orb after being knocked out or killed. He found it was permanent. He transformed into a Mystic Champion and his silver halo shown yet again with even greater intensity. His power level flamed back up to where it was before and even a bit higher. Buu still outclassed him by far. He was triple-Darkness empowered. Shenron's power and Eidolon's.
"Buu!" Gohan yelled with hatred.
"Glad to see you are awake, Gohan. The beating shall resume then," Buu laughed. He aimed a palm and fired a weaker blast. Gohan smacked it aside, barely saving the Supreme Kai's life. Shin was wide eyed and terrified. Buu nodded and laughed.
"I suppose you want me at least allow him to live, eh, Gohan? Why not. I will simply have to make sport of smacking you both around before I allow you to die. Or perhaps I will absorb you, Gohan to increase my power further still," Buu laughed. Gohan vanished. He appeared beside Buu and landed a hard drop kick. Buu's head caved in and he blasted clear through mountains of dirt. He dug himself out and flew for his assailant with unstoppable might. Gohan realized it was the Buu-Ball trick. (Buu shapes his body like a cannon ball and tries to hit you as super speeds.) Gohan dodged right and struck Buu's ball-shaped body with a Kai Flash at medium power. Buu was blown apart because of the speed he was traveling at. Gohan swept straight up to Buu's face as he gathered himself and reformed and struck him with another Kai Flash. Buu was rocked backwards but caught himself. He waited for the Mystic Champion to charge him again and struck him with his left wing. Gohan went blasting clear through miles and miles of rock and mountain. He moaned in agony as he forced himself to stand. His left arms and all of the ribs on his left side were smashed to powder. He regenerated and rose into the aura, Mystic Champion aura flaring.
"DARKNESS BLIGHT!" Buu laughed and screamed. Shin was right in the way of the attack. Gohan watched as Shin was enveloped. The explosion wasn't that large but enough to take out the Kai. But it had failed. Shin emerged in a Shine-Field powered way too high in magic for one simple Kai to wield or for even 10 Kais fused as 1 to wield. Gohan wasn't even sure of his shield was that powerful. Shin collapsed and Gohan sent him to the Grand Kai's Planet with a teleportation spell. He clashed with Buu yet again and the planet quaked. The magic field around the World of the Kais was warping, yielding from the pressure. Moons cracked and the orbit shifted as the ocean spun into the air as massive tornados. Their power was collapsing the Kai System. Gohan was outclassed but managed to hold his own.
The others watched from Other-World as Gohan faltered. He was a great warrior but Buu was breaking all the rules of combat. Goku wanted to help. But he knew the significance of the Supreme Kai's orders. He was far too weak now. Perhaps if he had become a Legendary Super Saiyan like Vegeta, he'd be able to al least keep up. But now he had to rely on Kai magic just to be able to see the warriors' movements. They were far too fast and powerful. Gohan was thrown into the ground again, and again he restored himself with the magic.
"This can't last long!" Goku yelled.
"Daddy, is Gohan going to get hurt?" Goten asked. Goku couldn't find it in himself to answer. Goten turned and left. Trunks was watching the battle with a seething hatred. His father was bested by Buu again and he wanted revenge, Goten looked at his friend and they nodded. Gotenks was born seconds later.
"Boys what do you think you are doing?" Piccolo demanded.
"Quite, Piccolo! I'm going to the Kai world to help Gohan! I won't let my dad down (Trunks) and I won't let my brother die! (Goten.) Who wants to come with me?!" Gotenks yelled.
"How to you expect to get there?" Piccolo replied.
"The Supreme Kai will take me," Gotenks declared.. Shin nodded slowly. He also tired of waiting. Then he grew more serious than ever.
"No wait. Defuse you 2," Shin ordered suddenly. Gotenks laughed.
"I don't think so," Gotenks declared.
"Rayon-si Dai Bai-odin!" the Kai muttered in his native tongue. Suddenly Gotenks blazed a pure blue and then split into 2 bodies. Trunks and Goten were back. They attempted another fusion and found the magic wouldn't respond. Shin was blocking their powers.
"Fusion may not be such a bad idea, you 2. But that kind of fusion is simply too weak. But these should do," Shin smiled. 2 golden orbs flared to life in his palms and another pair of the Fusion Earrings emerged. But this time they were green.
"What do these ones do?" Goku wondered.
"The same. Only the fused warrior decides when to separate the bodies of the fusing warriors. I lowered the overall strength of the fusion magic to make this change, making the fused warrior weaker than they would be if they were merged using the older Earrings," Shin replied.
"Guys we need to do something now! Gohan he getting killed!" Videl yelled.
"Who will use the Earrings?" Trunks demanded.
"Vegeta and Goku would be able to make Vegito if Vegeta were here. Vegito as a Super Saiyan 3 or especially a Legendary Super Saiyan 3 would be far powerful enough to bring Buu to his knees," Shin said.
"Goku and Gohan should merge," Krillin suggested.
"No. Gohan is too weak now. The resulting fusion would be weakened. Plus I don't think it's possible for Gohan to merge in any kind of fusion. His Mystic magic would more than likely reject the fusion magic anyways. He's far too powerful. We need something more," Old Kai spoke up. They watched as Fat Buu managed to restore Gohan again. The Mystic Champion was back but soon to fall again. Buu could kill him in a single strike. But he refused.
"HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Krillin yelled. He transformed into a Legendary Super Saiyan and maximized his power to its limits. He was strong for his race but nothing abel to help the situation.
"I will buy Gohan some time," Krillin said.
"Krillin, I know the Stone gives you a lot of power but I don't think..." Goku began. Krillin cut him off with a sudden strike. Goku was out cold instantly.
"I need to get there now! I can do something to help Gohan, you guys! It's risky and the Saiyan Stone will probably shatter and the Kai System will be wiped out but I know I can help buy time," Krillin said. Shin nodded at the human's determination. Videl took the Earrings and turned to 18.
"I think we can use these to help out," she said.
"I... Videl..." 18 said.
"Listen to me! We have to help him!" she cried. Tears were forming in her brilliant eyes. 18 finally nodded. She put the Earring into her left ear and Videl put hers in the other. They both sailed toward the other and then came the green flash as they merged.
"Is it...? Are they...?" Krillin said. He wasn't with 18 any more but he stilled worried about her. A new warrior appeared with black hair with beautiful blonde highlights. His eyes were blue and she was tall and strong. She radiated confidence and smiled. She stepped forward and looked herself over.
"Wow. I look great," she laughed softly. She gathered her power and threw a few punches. They impossibly fast. "See ya," she winked at the others. She vanished using Videl's Mystic magic.
"Goten, Trunks, here are your own set. Gotenks will be much stronger when formed this way. This should by us some time," Piccolo said, copying Shin's magic and creating Earrings of his own. They were red instead of green. "They will have a 4 hours limit." He added this bit for their benefit. Gotenks was born instantly. He self sparred in the air for a few seconds, checking out his newfound powers.
"All right!!" he laughed. "Buu is dead!" Shin took them back to the Kai Planet and left. Gotenks faced the fusion girl and smirked arrogantly.
"Gohan's back to full strength but I don't think he can hold it for long," the impossibly beautiful warrior said. She took off, Gotenks following.
Gohan dodged right and kneed Buu in the chest. Fat Buu hammered Ultimate Buu hard in the head and sent the demon crashing into the dirt. Gohan and the demon bombed the area with everything they could summon. Ultimate Buu formed above their heads and came down hard. He blew Fat Buu into the dirt where he didn't move again. He wrapped his legs around Gohan and pounded the Mystic hard and fast. Gohan summoned the rest of his strength and threw Buu off of him. He landed and fell to his knees. Buu reformed and laughed.
"Did you think that would work, Gohan? Did you honestly think that pitiful attack could beat me?" Buu laughed.
"Bastard!" Gohan yelled. Buu knocked him out with a simply thrust of his palm. He wrapped his arm around the Mystic and formed the ooze, preparing to merge with the Mystic. Gohan was absorbed yet again. Ultimate Buu laughed then jerked. His magic was fading and Gohan's was rising.
"What is he doing inside of me?!!!" Buu raged.
~~~~~~~~~ Gohan ~~~~~~~~~~
"Eidolon!" Gohan yelled. The Crystallite was out cold and trapped within one of Buu's pods. Gohan fired a few blasts and freed his friend. He peeled the ooze off from him and began regenerating the Crystallite warrior. Eidolon awoken and groaned.
"Where are we?" he said groggily.
"Inside Buu's head. His magic has use shrunken down," Gohan said. He was nearly out of it.
"You used the rest of your magic waking me up," Eidolon guessed. He used as much magic as he could spare to restore Gohan. Gohan rose but not because of Eidolon's magic. He smirked as a red aura burned around him. His Mystic magic was rising out of control! Eidolon could sense Buu weakening. Tein and Yamcha were freed and then Vegeta. They were all awoken.
"How do we get out of this place?" Eidolon demanded,
"You don't," Buu said. It was Super Buu.
"You back to being Super Buu. That means you had to..." Gohan began.
"Absorb the good version of myself? I don't think so. No I used the magic of the Kai System to restore me to Kid Buu's body permanently," Buu laughed.
"You're still way to weak to stop us," Gohan smirked.
"No. I can channel the massive magic of the Kai System to eradicate you all," Buu announced. He fired a massive ki blast which Gohan smacked aside. Gohan aimed both palms.
"What?! No way! You wouldn't!" Buu yelled..
"ULTIMA!" Gohan cried. The bomb swelled as Gohan poured every last bit of his ki and magic into it. Lightning flashed as it swelled. Buu's head bloated as the bomb struck the walls. The bomb exploded and so did Buu's skull. Gohan and the others flew away as maximum speed as Buu's head reformed. They were instantly restored to normal size. Tein and Yamcha spun to see Kid Buu flying at them. The childish demon was back, and Super Buu was lost again. Kid Buu flipped into a swift kick which Tein blocked. Yamcha bombed the demon, blowing into back. Tein joined the fray and struck the demon with his Tri-Beam Cannon. Gohan was too surprised to move. A girl arrives with Gotenks, but there was something familiar about her. Her power level was way too high for what it should be but that wasn't it. She was beyond beautiful but there was something in her eyes that made Gohan think about Videl.
"Hey Gohan," she winked as she landed beside the Saiyan. She pulled the Saiyan into a tight kiss and Gohan was impelled the kiss her back. He pulled away in wonder. Eidolon saw the girl and smirked.
"A fusion," he laughed.
"What?" Gohan asked.
"Can't you feel it. Your pretty mate and some other beautiful girl merged into one body. I magic is coming from those green Earrings," Eidolon replied, still smirking.
"The short kid's right, Gohan. Videl and 18 merged in order to help. Videl's idea," the fused female laughed.
"What is your name? Gotenks already has a name when he merged, is it the same with you?" Gohan wondered. Tein was suddenly stuck into the ground which grabbed their attention.
"This fusion's different. Like Vegito's, we come up with our own name. What would you call a Videl and an Android 18?" the female wondered.
"It doesn't matter, you guys! The human are getting slaughtered! They need our help!" Ragnarok said. The Crystallite spat and flew off. He stormed Buu after ignited his Darkness Flame and held his own, Kid Buu was still powered up beyond what he should have been.
"Call me Rhia. Videl's always liked that name. She planned on naming your daughter that, some day," the girl warrior said with a wink. She flew off in a flash. Gotenks was already gone. Gohan was about to join them when Krillin appeared with Shin. A golden disk hovering above his palm.
"What are you doing here?" Gohan wondered. He was shocked by their sudden appearance.
"To take Buu out," Krillin said. He formed a few more Destructo Disks and merged them above his head. Then he sent more energy into the newly formed ball and watched as it swelled beyond his control. "No way! Krillin, you can't! The Destructo Ball will decimate this entire System! Just like with the New Namek galaxy!" Gohan yelled. Krillin nodded.
"We already thought it through Gohan. This is the only way. Buu can't be killed here. The Kai System's magic would constantly bring him back. The only way to take him down is to take out the Kai System as well. Krillin is going to push his powers as far as the Saiyan Stone will allow and then power the Destructo Ball with all of that energy," Shin announced.
"HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!" Krillin yelled as he flared into a Legendary Super Saiyan. His power level climbed out of control. He rivaled a Super Saiyan 3's and then higher still. Gohan was so much more powerful than anything in the universe and still felt so powerless. He stormed off. He sent a teleportation spell into Gotenks, Rhia, Vegeta, Tein, and Yamcha and sent them to Other-World. The casted a universal spell to block anyone from being able to teleport back to the planet but only teleport from it. Buu watched as Gohan attacked. He beat Buu around with supreme ease. He wasn't even in Mystic Champion form. He slammed the demon through the ground and sailed high above, hands aimed.
"THIS IS IT! ULTIMA KAI GENOCIDE!" Gohan yelled, flaring into Mystic Champion state. He powered a bomb that swelled to the size of 1 of the moons in orbit. Krillin's Destructo Ball was roughly the same size. But much more powerful. Krillin pushed the Saiyan Stone further still and transformed into a Legendary Super Saiyan 3. His Ball swelled larger still, catching up to Gohan's bomb quickly.
"I will half to leave now! I will be hoping for your save returns!" Shin said as he left with Fat Buu. Gohan powered up his blast with more power than the Kai System. He was practically transferring all of the power of the Mystic Wave Orb into his final strike. Krillin empowered the Destructo Ball will every once of his Legendary Super Saiyan 3 power. He was growing exhausted but persevered. The same applied for the universe's only Mystic Champion. His Ultima bomb reached maximum size and power. Krillin decided the Ball was ready. Buu had reformed after being pounded with over 20 times the energy that should have been needed to kill him for good.
"So it's true. Buu is immortal here," Eidolon said.
"Yeah. But he won't survive," Gohan said.
"I missed the part where you changed into a god but it's working for us! Here let me help!" the Crystallite said as he empowered the bomb with his own might. He swelled a bit more as he did so. Krillin nodded in there direction. Buu stared as the bombs and laughed, thinking he could never die.
"Take this, Buu!" Krillin yelled. He launched the Destructo Ball, a whirling bladed sphere which loomed closer, cutting even the wind.
"ULTIMA KAI GENOCIDE!" Gohan cried as he launched the bomb. Krillin's Destructo Ball hammered into the planet, slashing clear through it. The magic responded with an explosive reaction. Lightning cracked. That's where the Kai Genocide came in. It absorbed the magic like a sponge, increasing its size greatly by the second. The Destructo Ball missed Buu completely as the demon dodged with all his speed. Kai Planet was decimated and all of its magic was taken by Gohan's bomb. The moons were shattered next, their magic taken as well. The Kai Genocide was now twice as large as the actual planet. Gohan couldn't even see all of it in his sight. Buu looked up in wonder and in terror.
"This is your end, Buu! This is oblivion!" Gohan cried. He swept him arms downward and slung the bomb with everything he had, his arms straining. Buu flew off backwards, trying to avoid a cold death. He failed as the bomb struck hard. Buu was decimated a trillion fold. Gohan wasn't done yet. He began casting another spell instantly.
"Gohan? What are you doing?" Eidolon demanded. Krillin was out cold from lack of energy.
"Take Krillin to Other-World to be healed or he'll die soon! And have me wished back, okay?" Gohan said. It spoke in a final tone.
"Gohan..." Eidolon whispered.
"RAGNAROK GO!" Gohan yelled. Eidolon faded from sight with Krillin over his shoulder. "HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!" Gohan cried out as his body flashed blue then exploded. The magic washed over the entire area and a sphere formed. Then many smaller ones forged themselves from the magic light as well. Lightning rocked the whole of Other-World as the only and last Mystic Champion faded from life. Kai Planet reformed and as did the moons its prized. Its magic soared back to normal, corruption gone.
~~~~~~~ Other World ~~~~~~~
"He's gone!" Videl cried. Her and 18 had separated. Gotenks had done the same now that his Earrings time ran out. They watched through the Crystal Ball as the Kai System returned. Supreme Kai's Palace along with the Sacred Garden's shown beautifully.
"He told us to wish him back," Eidolon said. He was restoring Krillin's life force. The human stood, groggy.
"And I hope you all will," the Mystic laughed. They turned to see him appear, golden halo of his head.
"You did the impossible!" Shin replied. "You killed Buu and healed the Kai System!"
"I had to used the Mystic Wave Orb in order to do it. And that meant sacrificing myself," Gohan admitted as Videl dug her face into his chest, crying. He hugged her and tried to comfort her the best he could.
"Death has no hold on you now, Gohan," Old Kai chuckled.
"What do you mean?" Goku asked.
"Become a Mystic Champion," Old Kai instructed. Gohan nodded. He backed away from her love who looked up at him with wonder and focused his power.
"HHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!" he cried as he powered up. Other-World shook as he transformed. Golden halo replaced by a silver one. His body which was dimmer and colder in death brightened and warmed to life. It was as though he was never dead at all.
"You can't be killed in a sense, Gohan. Once you die, you can come back to life for a time while in Mystic Champion form," Old Kai declared. Gohan realized something. He was growing exhausted. He let the form drop and returned to the dead. He was breathing hard.
"Well you'll have to wait 6 months to be restored normally anyways," Yamcha said, rubbing the back of his neck nervously.
"Why?" Gohan wondered.
"We used the first wish to become stronger. Shenron brought out our greatest powers and we told him to save the second wish," Tein explained.
"The Army will be here by then, your idiots! We'll need Gohan to stand a chance!" Eidolon yelled.
"No. The Nameks will help us," Piccolo said.
"I'll ask," Shin said. He vanished.
"Well you quite the hero, kiddo," Goku said.
"I don't feel like a hero. I feel like sleeping," Gohan smiled. And so he did. Goku sat him down as he watched the golden halo vanished from his head. Shin appeared and nodded.
What about the second and third wishes, Kai Masters? Elder Mori said from universes away.
"Wish for new combat suits for all of us," Vegeta suggested. The wish was soon granted and Vegeta laughed as he suddenly found himself in an ancient suit of Saiyan armor much like he used to wear back in the service of Frieza.
Goku and the others wore similar suits. Tein used his Darkness powers to change his clothes to more suitable earth clothes. He would never dress like a Saiyan. Piccolo used his magic to revert to Namekian armor. He also never cared for Saiyan clothing. Krillin and Yamcha didn't mind. Eidolon and 18 along with Videl liked them as well. Buu changed back to his normal cloths, not liking the armor having to stretch over his gut. Shin nodded.
"The third wish should be simple. Wish that the Legendary corruption was removed from myself and the Saiyan Stone," Vegeta said. The Saiyan Stone glowed then dimmed.
"Does it still have it's power?" Krillin demanded.
"Yes. But now Galaphile is returned to the dead for good," Vegeta said. "And the Legendary Super Saiyan power removed from my veins. I am a Saiyan warrior for fights with his strength alone. I need no cheap power-up tricks!"
"And then it is so. Shall we return home?" Shin asked. The Kai casted the spell and they faded from the World of the Dead.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Author ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That was a bit longer than usual. I didn't like the way this chapter turned out but I left it alone to see what you all thought. Tell me in your reviews. And someone asked me to pair 18 and Eidolon up. Tell what you all think about that. Maybe I'll give it a try if you all like the idea. Let me know what you think in your reviews. And as for the Martial Arts tourney I went to I scored 82 out of 376. Which wasn't too bad but my father was disappointed, lol. I catch you all around next time on Dragonball Z!
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Gohan cried as he attacked with unrelenting force. His aura flaming with fury much like the storm that burned within the Mystic Champion's soul. Eidolon was being used like a pathetic tool and he hated it. He watched as Buu dodged and blocked, using Eidolon's skill and power. Buu flared his Darkness Flame and then charged a blast in his palms with the same kind of power. The power of Darkness/
"Ready Gohan!? Take this!! DARKNES BLIGHT!!!" Dark Buu yelled and laughed as he released the most powerful blast of Darkness ever. Gohan caught the blast in his left palm and held it back with ease. He tired of the little game and cancelled the blast out with his own power. He was serious. Buu was to die. He appeared behind the demon and backhanded him into the dirt. Buu picked himself up and launched a barrage of blasts much more intense than his last attack. Gohan was hammered by every blast, each were enough to kill whom he was only a day before with ease and with enough energy left over to do it again. Gohan appeared from the haze, in perfect health. His silver halo was brighter than ever as the Mystic Champion's power level rose exponentially.
"He's stronger! How did Gohan change like that!!" Piccolo freaked. He, 18, Trunks, Goten, and Baba landed beside the others. Baba used her magic to bring them to the Kai Planet, the realized.
"We aren't sure, Piccolo. He just appeared at this new stage of power," Goku explained. They filled them in on everything up to where they were now.
"He took Eidolon?" Piccolo trembled. He realized exactly how much a problem that was. But seeing Gohan slacking the mega Buu around with ease kept his worries to a minimal.
Gohan appeared behind the Mystic Champion and hammered with him both fists as one. Buu blasted through the earth. He dug himself out and reformed.
"THIS MAKES NO SENSE! HOW!? HOW?!! HOW CAN HE BE STRONGER THAN ME!!!" Buu raged. Lightning spewed from his aura as his power rose from his anger.
"He gets stronger the angrier he gets," Gohan noticed. He aimed his right palm and powered a very familiar blast.
"WHAT'S THIS?!" Buu screamed in fear as Gohan channeled his power into his attack.
"ULTIMA KAI GENOCIDE!" Gohan cried. He sent the most powerful Kai attack in existence careening straight into Buu. Buu was ripped apart and scattered all over the planet. Gohan sensed his magic was active and he sensed his working with Eidolon's magic. Both magics were working in hyper drive in order to keep Buu alive. Gohan watched as Buu's signal faded. He was masking it. He flew over to the others and landed.
"That was awesome, Gohan!" Krillin yelled. Videl ran up and gave him a hug. He hugged and kissed her back and separated from her.
"It's not over! Guys listen to me! Each of you are powerful but nowhere near enough! Buu is still out there and he's coming back! Our battle is about to reach its zenith and the Kai System probably will not survive! Listen to me! Buu and I will clash and everything will be decimated! I need you all to leave now!" Gohan ordered. What he was saying was true. But what he was mainly concerned with was Buu absorbing someone else. If Buu as much as even absorbed Krillin or Videl, he'd have an advantage over Gohan in power and speed. Perhaps skill as well.
"Gohan..." Goku said. Gohan turned to face his father. Goku saw someone different looking back at him. "He's right, guys. We have to head out now! These 2 are out of our league. I never thought I'd be the one to admit this, but we're more of a burden than any kind of help. Grab hold and we'll leave for Grand Kai's planet," Goku said. Vegeta laughed like his old dark self.
"Cowards! Run if you want to! You're all too weak to handle the battle! Gohan and I shall remain then. We will bring Buu down," Vegeta said. His arms were crossed and he was smirking with pride.
"Vegeta are you insane?! You're as strong as Goku, you can't stand any better chance here than he could himself!" Piccolo yelled. Vegeta laughed again. He flared into Super Saiyan and his body bulked. He was way too strong to be a normal Super Saiyan.
"No way!" Krillin jerked.
"That's right. I realized it during the battle. For a short while, I can become a Legendary Super Saiyan at will," Vegeta laughed.
"But you're not able to sustain the form naturally, Vegeta! Doing so may kill you!" Shin warned. Vegeta laughed. He transformed into a Legendary Super Saiyan 3 and his power level knocked them all back except for Gohan. Even Gohan had to admit Vegeta wasn't weak in this form at all. Even compared to him and Buu. Goku nodded.
"Go guys. Vegeta and I will finish things up here," Gohan said. They all vanished together.
"Are you ready, Gohan?" Vegeta asked. Gohan nodded. They both blasted off together at a speed impossible to see.
~~~~~~~~~~ Earth ~~~~~~~~~~
"HHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!" came a loud cry. A blast of wind that rocked the entire Lookout came surging from the Time Chamber. Tein emerged beside Yamcha. Dende watched as they appeared.
"What the..." the Guardian said.
"Hey Dende," Yamcha said. "Where is 18 and Piccolo? We want to fight them." His voice was somewhat like Mystic Champion Gohan's only it was darker. It sounded more demonic. Yamcha was smirking darkly and his eyes were darker. His hair was upward in thick spikes and he was much bulkier than before. He was as big as Piccolo and Tein was larger still. Dende could tell their powers were enormous.
"They left for the Kai Planet. Buu is back and they are fighting with all of their powers," Dende said, telling them what Shin had just told him telepathically only seconds before they arrived.
"Think we can make the jump?" Tein asked.
"I don't know. These are radical new powers we haven't had much time to practice with," Yamcha admitted. Tein raised 2 fingers to his forehead and Yamcha did the same. They both vanished in a flash.
~~~~~~~~~~ Kai Planet ~~~~~~~~~~
"HAHAHAHA!" Vegeta cried. He and Gohan were sparing. Vegeta was quick and agile. He had to be even more powerful than Galaphile was. He was holding his own at the low level Gohan limited himself to. Vegeta backed off and prepared to power down, strangely exhausted.
"Where is that blasted Majin!" he yelled, out of breath.
"I can't sense him any where. Magic and ki levels are completely erased. But I know he can't be dead. He sensed him rushing to hide his power," Gohan said. Vegeta turned when it hit him. Pink ooze collapsed around his body and he was absorbed soon after. A wind rocked the area as Buu formed. He wore Vegeta's sleeveless purple training gi and his leather vest. He still had the white pants all forms of Buu had and Eidolon's wings and horn. He still used the Darkness Flame as well. Gohan jerked in surprise as Buu's power rose from nothing all the way up to a level even he didn't want to face alone. His eyes were wide and his trembled in a mix of rage and fear. That's when 2 figures appeared on each side of him. Tein to his left and Yamcha to his right. Gohan sensed the dramatic increase in their powers and realized they were being charged with Darkness. They were stronger but nowhere near enough. Ultimate Buu formed, laughing and taunting.
"I have way more power than before!" he laughed as he used Vegeta's Legendary power to his liking.
"He's impossible!" Tein jerked.
"We're in way over our heads!" Yamcha declared even though he took a defensive stance anyways. Gohan smirked for the first time since he had his truest power released. Buu attacked. Gohan blocked hard and was thrown back. He was just realizing how strong Buu had become. He raised his ki again and threw forth a powerful wave. Buu dodged and they clashed. They rose into the air and lightning spewed. Gohan blocked and parried with all of his heart and soul. Buu laughed and landed a blow. Gohan struck the ground and dug a hundred foot trench clear through it. He powered up and rose.
"HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!" he cried as he summoned his maximum Mystic Champion strength. Buu backed off as Gohan released everything. The Mystic attacked and dropped Buu hard. The demon rolled hard to his right to avoid the second kick. He kicked upward with both feet and landed a hard double blow to Gohan's chest. One of Vegeta's moves, Gohan noticed. He flipped and landed and aimed with hands. He sent a Kai Flash into Buu, tearing the demon apart. He reformed and attacked. Gohan flipped over the kick and noticed as Buu head tendril wrapped him. He jerked but Buu was using a magical field to hold him. He pounded Gohan for what seemed to be forever. He threw the Mystic into the dirt and powered a Darkness Blight. He eradicated everything that was Gohan. But Gohan regenerated from a spark of Magic and came in hard. He bombed Buu with another Ultima Kai Genocide. Buu was blown apart. The demon used Eidolon's magic to reform this time. He powered up a Final Flash and unleashed it with all of his fury. Gohan realized Vegeta's Ki Fusion Engine and Eidolon's Darkness Flame were deceptively augmenting the blast. Gohan dodged right and blasted off. The blast followed him. Gohan was shocked. The Final Flash was a final massive strike. Not even Vegeta had ever mastered how to control it like that. Gohan stopped and allowed the blast to strike him for force. The explosion was enormous.
"To the end of the Mystic," Buu laughed.
Then the cloudy haze faded and Gohan emerged, Shine-Shield fully active and strained nearly to its limits. Gohan faded the shield and turned to Buu. He brought both hands to his right.
"So it's going to be like that, eh, Gohan?" Buu laughed. He charged another Darkness Blight.
"Kamehame--HAAAAAAA!" the Mystic Champion cried as he sent forth the bulk of his complete strength. Buu launched Eidolon's Darkness Blight and the waves clashed with tremendous force. Lightning spewed into the air as they struggled for control. Gohan's regenerative magic was running overtime to keep his energy up high enough to sustain his blast. Buu was using both his magic and Eidolon's to gain the advantage. He forced Gohan's wave back and the Mystic nearly faltered. Buu was still only using a third of his complete power. Vegeta was making him unstoppable!
"Gohan! You have to fight him!" Tein yelled.
"Come on, Tein! Let's go and help him out a bit," Yamcha yelled. They appeared behind Buu and charged up their newfound powers. They both launched Darkness Blight Waves of their own and sent them crashing into Buu's back. The demon was blown forward and Gohan took advantage of the situation. He then launched Ultima Kai Genocide and watched as Buu was eradicated. The demon reformed in second, this time his magic and ki levels were much lower and he was very much out of breath. It had been the first time Buu had shown exhaustion.
"Well now that was an attack," Buu gasped. Gohan was drained and he knew it. He caught his breath and Gohan could sense his magic and ki returning to normal levels slowly but steadily.
"I can't believe he isn't dead after that!" Tein yelled in shock.
"Tell be about it, man! He's wicked!" Yamcha stammered. Buu turned to the humans and laughed. He shot his arms like projectiles, disconnecting them from his body. He regrew new arms and watched as his old appendages melted into goo and wrapped around the human warriors. Tein flared a barrier just before the contact was made but Yamcha was too late. He was taken and absorbed in seconds. Buu changed again and his power soared. His Darkness Flame drew from both Eidolon's and Yamcha's Darkness powers. He laughed as Tein struggled. Gohan appeared and tore the ooze from the human warrior and blasted it from existence. Buu frowned. He sent a blast of wind into Gohan, easily knocking him back. Tein was enveloped again by Buu's body and then assimilated. Gohan watched as Ultimate Buu's power level tripled from what it was since he first took Vegeta.
"They didn't deserve that!" Gohan raged.
"Perhaps not. But I'm not interested in being fair and doing the right thing. I'm interested in bringing you to your knees, Gohan," Ultimate Buu laughed. Gohan was struggled to stay conscious. His energy was slipping away. His silver halo dimmed to an off white and his hair grew darker. He was slowly reverting to his former self.
~~~~~~~Grand Kai Planet~~~~~~~
"He's loosing it!" Old Kai yelled. Shin had made a second trip to get him.
"What are you talking about?" Goten asked.
"Gohan's power level is regressing because he cannot sustain Mystic Champion form! He need to be restored or Buu will run us down!" Old Kai replied. Shin nodded and he and Fat Buu vanished. ~~~~~~~~~~Kai Planet~~~~~~~~~~
Gohan struck the dirt where Buu continued to pound him with energy lances. The he faded from Mystic Champion form down to his natural Mystic state. His ki and magic were dropping further still.
"Gohan!" Shin yelled as he appeared. He landed beside the fading hero and began his spell of regeneration. Gohan jerked a bit but he was still fading too fast. Fat Buu kicked in a kind of makeshift magic generator, pumping a thousand times the magic into Gohan the Kai was. Gohan's muscles bulged a bit as they grew stronger after sustaining damage as all Saiyans do. Scratches and bruises faded and deep cuts sealed and scabs faded. Burns were cooled and the skin restored as bone were mended. Gohan coughed up a final bit of blood as his magic and ki were restored to full. Fat Buu fell over, unconscious from the loss of so much magic which gave him life. Shin was fine, standing strong still. Gohan stood and powered up. He closed his eyes and found something new. He thought he had lost the power of the Mystic Wave Orb after being knocked out or killed. He found it was permanent. He transformed into a Mystic Champion and his silver halo shown yet again with even greater intensity. His power level flamed back up to where it was before and even a bit higher. Buu still outclassed him by far. He was triple-Darkness empowered. Shenron's power and Eidolon's.
"Buu!" Gohan yelled with hatred.
"Glad to see you are awake, Gohan. The beating shall resume then," Buu laughed. He aimed a palm and fired a weaker blast. Gohan smacked it aside, barely saving the Supreme Kai's life. Shin was wide eyed and terrified. Buu nodded and laughed.
"I suppose you want me at least allow him to live, eh, Gohan? Why not. I will simply have to make sport of smacking you both around before I allow you to die. Or perhaps I will absorb you, Gohan to increase my power further still," Buu laughed. Gohan vanished. He appeared beside Buu and landed a hard drop kick. Buu's head caved in and he blasted clear through mountains of dirt. He dug himself out and flew for his assailant with unstoppable might. Gohan realized it was the Buu-Ball trick. (Buu shapes his body like a cannon ball and tries to hit you as super speeds.) Gohan dodged right and struck Buu's ball-shaped body with a Kai Flash at medium power. Buu was blown apart because of the speed he was traveling at. Gohan swept straight up to Buu's face as he gathered himself and reformed and struck him with another Kai Flash. Buu was rocked backwards but caught himself. He waited for the Mystic Champion to charge him again and struck him with his left wing. Gohan went blasting clear through miles and miles of rock and mountain. He moaned in agony as he forced himself to stand. His left arms and all of the ribs on his left side were smashed to powder. He regenerated and rose into the aura, Mystic Champion aura flaring.
"DARKNESS BLIGHT!" Buu laughed and screamed. Shin was right in the way of the attack. Gohan watched as Shin was enveloped. The explosion wasn't that large but enough to take out the Kai. But it had failed. Shin emerged in a Shine-Field powered way too high in magic for one simple Kai to wield or for even 10 Kais fused as 1 to wield. Gohan wasn't even sure of his shield was that powerful. Shin collapsed and Gohan sent him to the Grand Kai's Planet with a teleportation spell. He clashed with Buu yet again and the planet quaked. The magic field around the World of the Kais was warping, yielding from the pressure. Moons cracked and the orbit shifted as the ocean spun into the air as massive tornados. Their power was collapsing the Kai System. Gohan was outclassed but managed to hold his own.
The others watched from Other-World as Gohan faltered. He was a great warrior but Buu was breaking all the rules of combat. Goku wanted to help. But he knew the significance of the Supreme Kai's orders. He was far too weak now. Perhaps if he had become a Legendary Super Saiyan like Vegeta, he'd be able to al least keep up. But now he had to rely on Kai magic just to be able to see the warriors' movements. They were far too fast and powerful. Gohan was thrown into the ground again, and again he restored himself with the magic.
"This can't last long!" Goku yelled.
"Daddy, is Gohan going to get hurt?" Goten asked. Goku couldn't find it in himself to answer. Goten turned and left. Trunks was watching the battle with a seething hatred. His father was bested by Buu again and he wanted revenge, Goten looked at his friend and they nodded. Gotenks was born seconds later.
"Boys what do you think you are doing?" Piccolo demanded.
"Quite, Piccolo! I'm going to the Kai world to help Gohan! I won't let my dad down (Trunks) and I won't let my brother die! (Goten.) Who wants to come with me?!" Gotenks yelled.
"How to you expect to get there?" Piccolo replied.
"The Supreme Kai will take me," Gotenks declared.. Shin nodded slowly. He also tired of waiting. Then he grew more serious than ever.
"No wait. Defuse you 2," Shin ordered suddenly. Gotenks laughed.
"I don't think so," Gotenks declared.
"Rayon-si Dai Bai-odin!" the Kai muttered in his native tongue. Suddenly Gotenks blazed a pure blue and then split into 2 bodies. Trunks and Goten were back. They attempted another fusion and found the magic wouldn't respond. Shin was blocking their powers.
"Fusion may not be such a bad idea, you 2. But that kind of fusion is simply too weak. But these should do," Shin smiled. 2 golden orbs flared to life in his palms and another pair of the Fusion Earrings emerged. But this time they were green.
"What do these ones do?" Goku wondered.
"The same. Only the fused warrior decides when to separate the bodies of the fusing warriors. I lowered the overall strength of the fusion magic to make this change, making the fused warrior weaker than they would be if they were merged using the older Earrings," Shin replied.
"Guys we need to do something now! Gohan he getting killed!" Videl yelled.
"Who will use the Earrings?" Trunks demanded.
"Vegeta and Goku would be able to make Vegito if Vegeta were here. Vegito as a Super Saiyan 3 or especially a Legendary Super Saiyan 3 would be far powerful enough to bring Buu to his knees," Shin said.
"Goku and Gohan should merge," Krillin suggested.
"No. Gohan is too weak now. The resulting fusion would be weakened. Plus I don't think it's possible for Gohan to merge in any kind of fusion. His Mystic magic would more than likely reject the fusion magic anyways. He's far too powerful. We need something more," Old Kai spoke up. They watched as Fat Buu managed to restore Gohan again. The Mystic Champion was back but soon to fall again. Buu could kill him in a single strike. But he refused.
"HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!" Krillin yelled. He transformed into a Legendary Super Saiyan and maximized his power to its limits. He was strong for his race but nothing abel to help the situation.
"I will buy Gohan some time," Krillin said.
"Krillin, I know the Stone gives you a lot of power but I don't think..." Goku began. Krillin cut him off with a sudden strike. Goku was out cold instantly.
"I need to get there now! I can do something to help Gohan, you guys! It's risky and the Saiyan Stone will probably shatter and the Kai System will be wiped out but I know I can help buy time," Krillin said. Shin nodded at the human's determination. Videl took the Earrings and turned to 18.
"I think we can use these to help out," she said.
"I... Videl..." 18 said.
"Listen to me! We have to help him!" she cried. Tears were forming in her brilliant eyes. 18 finally nodded. She put the Earring into her left ear and Videl put hers in the other. They both sailed toward the other and then came the green flash as they merged.
"Is it...? Are they...?" Krillin said. He wasn't with 18 any more but he stilled worried about her. A new warrior appeared with black hair with beautiful blonde highlights. His eyes were blue and she was tall and strong. She radiated confidence and smiled. She stepped forward and looked herself over.
"Wow. I look great," she laughed softly. She gathered her power and threw a few punches. They impossibly fast. "See ya," she winked at the others. She vanished using Videl's Mystic magic.
"Goten, Trunks, here are your own set. Gotenks will be much stronger when formed this way. This should by us some time," Piccolo said, copying Shin's magic and creating Earrings of his own. They were red instead of green. "They will have a 4 hours limit." He added this bit for their benefit. Gotenks was born instantly. He self sparred in the air for a few seconds, checking out his newfound powers.
"All right!!" he laughed. "Buu is dead!" Shin took them back to the Kai Planet and left. Gotenks faced the fusion girl and smirked arrogantly.
"Gohan's back to full strength but I don't think he can hold it for long," the impossibly beautiful warrior said. She took off, Gotenks following.
Gohan dodged right and kneed Buu in the chest. Fat Buu hammered Ultimate Buu hard in the head and sent the demon crashing into the dirt. Gohan and the demon bombed the area with everything they could summon. Ultimate Buu formed above their heads and came down hard. He blew Fat Buu into the dirt where he didn't move again. He wrapped his legs around Gohan and pounded the Mystic hard and fast. Gohan summoned the rest of his strength and threw Buu off of him. He landed and fell to his knees. Buu reformed and laughed.
"Did you think that would work, Gohan? Did you honestly think that pitiful attack could beat me?" Buu laughed.
"Bastard!" Gohan yelled. Buu knocked him out with a simply thrust of his palm. He wrapped his arm around the Mystic and formed the ooze, preparing to merge with the Mystic. Gohan was absorbed yet again. Ultimate Buu laughed then jerked. His magic was fading and Gohan's was rising.
"What is he doing inside of me?!!!" Buu raged.
~~~~~~~~~ Gohan ~~~~~~~~~~
"Eidolon!" Gohan yelled. The Crystallite was out cold and trapped within one of Buu's pods. Gohan fired a few blasts and freed his friend. He peeled the ooze off from him and began regenerating the Crystallite warrior. Eidolon awoken and groaned.
"Where are we?" he said groggily.
"Inside Buu's head. His magic has use shrunken down," Gohan said. He was nearly out of it.
"You used the rest of your magic waking me up," Eidolon guessed. He used as much magic as he could spare to restore Gohan. Gohan rose but not because of Eidolon's magic. He smirked as a red aura burned around him. His Mystic magic was rising out of control! Eidolon could sense Buu weakening. Tein and Yamcha were freed and then Vegeta. They were all awoken.
"How do we get out of this place?" Eidolon demanded,
"You don't," Buu said. It was Super Buu.
"You back to being Super Buu. That means you had to..." Gohan began.
"Absorb the good version of myself? I don't think so. No I used the magic of the Kai System to restore me to Kid Buu's body permanently," Buu laughed.
"You're still way to weak to stop us," Gohan smirked.
"No. I can channel the massive magic of the Kai System to eradicate you all," Buu announced. He fired a massive ki blast which Gohan smacked aside. Gohan aimed both palms.
"What?! No way! You wouldn't!" Buu yelled..
"ULTIMA!" Gohan cried. The bomb swelled as Gohan poured every last bit of his ki and magic into it. Lightning flashed as it swelled. Buu's head bloated as the bomb struck the walls. The bomb exploded and so did Buu's skull. Gohan and the others flew away as maximum speed as Buu's head reformed. They were instantly restored to normal size. Tein and Yamcha spun to see Kid Buu flying at them. The childish demon was back, and Super Buu was lost again. Kid Buu flipped into a swift kick which Tein blocked. Yamcha bombed the demon, blowing into back. Tein joined the fray and struck the demon with his Tri-Beam Cannon. Gohan was too surprised to move. A girl arrives with Gotenks, but there was something familiar about her. Her power level was way too high for what it should be but that wasn't it. She was beyond beautiful but there was something in her eyes that made Gohan think about Videl.
"Hey Gohan," she winked as she landed beside the Saiyan. She pulled the Saiyan into a tight kiss and Gohan was impelled the kiss her back. He pulled away in wonder. Eidolon saw the girl and smirked.
"A fusion," he laughed.
"What?" Gohan asked.
"Can't you feel it. Your pretty mate and some other beautiful girl merged into one body. I magic is coming from those green Earrings," Eidolon replied, still smirking.
"The short kid's right, Gohan. Videl and 18 merged in order to help. Videl's idea," the fused female laughed.
"What is your name? Gotenks already has a name when he merged, is it the same with you?" Gohan wondered. Tein was suddenly stuck into the ground which grabbed their attention.
"This fusion's different. Like Vegito's, we come up with our own name. What would you call a Videl and an Android 18?" the female wondered.
"It doesn't matter, you guys! The human are getting slaughtered! They need our help!" Ragnarok said. The Crystallite spat and flew off. He stormed Buu after ignited his Darkness Flame and held his own, Kid Buu was still powered up beyond what he should have been.
"Call me Rhia. Videl's always liked that name. She planned on naming your daughter that, some day," the girl warrior said with a wink. She flew off in a flash. Gotenks was already gone. Gohan was about to join them when Krillin appeared with Shin. A golden disk hovering above his palm.
"What are you doing here?" Gohan wondered. He was shocked by their sudden appearance.
"To take Buu out," Krillin said. He formed a few more Destructo Disks and merged them above his head. Then he sent more energy into the newly formed ball and watched as it swelled beyond his control. "No way! Krillin, you can't! The Destructo Ball will decimate this entire System! Just like with the New Namek galaxy!" Gohan yelled. Krillin nodded.
"We already thought it through Gohan. This is the only way. Buu can't be killed here. The Kai System's magic would constantly bring him back. The only way to take him down is to take out the Kai System as well. Krillin is going to push his powers as far as the Saiyan Stone will allow and then power the Destructo Ball with all of that energy," Shin announced.
"HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!" Krillin yelled as he flared into a Legendary Super Saiyan. His power level climbed out of control. He rivaled a Super Saiyan 3's and then higher still. Gohan was so much more powerful than anything in the universe and still felt so powerless. He stormed off. He sent a teleportation spell into Gotenks, Rhia, Vegeta, Tein, and Yamcha and sent them to Other-World. The casted a universal spell to block anyone from being able to teleport back to the planet but only teleport from it. Buu watched as Gohan attacked. He beat Buu around with supreme ease. He wasn't even in Mystic Champion form. He slammed the demon through the ground and sailed high above, hands aimed.
"THIS IS IT! ULTIMA KAI GENOCIDE!" Gohan yelled, flaring into Mystic Champion state. He powered a bomb that swelled to the size of 1 of the moons in orbit. Krillin's Destructo Ball was roughly the same size. But much more powerful. Krillin pushed the Saiyan Stone further still and transformed into a Legendary Super Saiyan 3. His Ball swelled larger still, catching up to Gohan's bomb quickly.
"I will half to leave now! I will be hoping for your save returns!" Shin said as he left with Fat Buu. Gohan powered up his blast with more power than the Kai System. He was practically transferring all of the power of the Mystic Wave Orb into his final strike. Krillin empowered the Destructo Ball will every once of his Legendary Super Saiyan 3 power. He was growing exhausted but persevered. The same applied for the universe's only Mystic Champion. His Ultima bomb reached maximum size and power. Krillin decided the Ball was ready. Buu had reformed after being pounded with over 20 times the energy that should have been needed to kill him for good.
"So it's true. Buu is immortal here," Eidolon said.
"Yeah. But he won't survive," Gohan said.
"I missed the part where you changed into a god but it's working for us! Here let me help!" the Crystallite said as he empowered the bomb with his own might. He swelled a bit more as he did so. Krillin nodded in there direction. Buu stared as the bombs and laughed, thinking he could never die.
"Take this, Buu!" Krillin yelled. He launched the Destructo Ball, a whirling bladed sphere which loomed closer, cutting even the wind.
"ULTIMA KAI GENOCIDE!" Gohan cried as he launched the bomb. Krillin's Destructo Ball hammered into the planet, slashing clear through it. The magic responded with an explosive reaction. Lightning cracked. That's where the Kai Genocide came in. It absorbed the magic like a sponge, increasing its size greatly by the second. The Destructo Ball missed Buu completely as the demon dodged with all his speed. Kai Planet was decimated and all of its magic was taken by Gohan's bomb. The moons were shattered next, their magic taken as well. The Kai Genocide was now twice as large as the actual planet. Gohan couldn't even see all of it in his sight. Buu looked up in wonder and in terror.
"This is your end, Buu! This is oblivion!" Gohan cried. He swept him arms downward and slung the bomb with everything he had, his arms straining. Buu flew off backwards, trying to avoid a cold death. He failed as the bomb struck hard. Buu was decimated a trillion fold. Gohan wasn't done yet. He began casting another spell instantly.
"Gohan? What are you doing?" Eidolon demanded. Krillin was out cold from lack of energy.
"Take Krillin to Other-World to be healed or he'll die soon! And have me wished back, okay?" Gohan said. It spoke in a final tone.
"Gohan..." Eidolon whispered.
"RAGNAROK GO!" Gohan yelled. Eidolon faded from sight with Krillin over his shoulder. "HHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!" Gohan cried out as his body flashed blue then exploded. The magic washed over the entire area and a sphere formed. Then many smaller ones forged themselves from the magic light as well. Lightning rocked the whole of Other-World as the only and last Mystic Champion faded from life. Kai Planet reformed and as did the moons its prized. Its magic soared back to normal, corruption gone.
~~~~~~~ Other World ~~~~~~~
"He's gone!" Videl cried. Her and 18 had separated. Gotenks had done the same now that his Earrings time ran out. They watched through the Crystal Ball as the Kai System returned. Supreme Kai's Palace along with the Sacred Garden's shown beautifully.
"He told us to wish him back," Eidolon said. He was restoring Krillin's life force. The human stood, groggy.
"And I hope you all will," the Mystic laughed. They turned to see him appear, golden halo of his head.
"You did the impossible!" Shin replied. "You killed Buu and healed the Kai System!"
"I had to used the Mystic Wave Orb in order to do it. And that meant sacrificing myself," Gohan admitted as Videl dug her face into his chest, crying. He hugged her and tried to comfort her the best he could.
"Death has no hold on you now, Gohan," Old Kai chuckled.
"What do you mean?" Goku asked.
"Become a Mystic Champion," Old Kai instructed. Gohan nodded. He backed away from her love who looked up at him with wonder and focused his power.
"HHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!" he cried as he powered up. Other-World shook as he transformed. Golden halo replaced by a silver one. His body which was dimmer and colder in death brightened and warmed to life. It was as though he was never dead at all.
"You can't be killed in a sense, Gohan. Once you die, you can come back to life for a time while in Mystic Champion form," Old Kai declared. Gohan realized something. He was growing exhausted. He let the form drop and returned to the dead. He was breathing hard.
"Well you'll have to wait 6 months to be restored normally anyways," Yamcha said, rubbing the back of his neck nervously.
"Why?" Gohan wondered.
"We used the first wish to become stronger. Shenron brought out our greatest powers and we told him to save the second wish," Tein explained.
"The Army will be here by then, your idiots! We'll need Gohan to stand a chance!" Eidolon yelled.
"No. The Nameks will help us," Piccolo said.
"I'll ask," Shin said. He vanished.
"Well you quite the hero, kiddo," Goku said.
"I don't feel like a hero. I feel like sleeping," Gohan smiled. And so he did. Goku sat him down as he watched the golden halo vanished from his head. Shin appeared and nodded.
What about the second and third wishes, Kai Masters? Elder Mori said from universes away.
"Wish for new combat suits for all of us," Vegeta suggested. The wish was soon granted and Vegeta laughed as he suddenly found himself in an ancient suit of Saiyan armor much like he used to wear back in the service of Frieza.
Goku and the others wore similar suits. Tein used his Darkness powers to change his clothes to more suitable earth clothes. He would never dress like a Saiyan. Piccolo used his magic to revert to Namekian armor. He also never cared for Saiyan clothing. Krillin and Yamcha didn't mind. Eidolon and 18 along with Videl liked them as well. Buu changed back to his normal cloths, not liking the armor having to stretch over his gut. Shin nodded.
"The third wish should be simple. Wish that the Legendary corruption was removed from myself and the Saiyan Stone," Vegeta said. The Saiyan Stone glowed then dimmed.
"Does it still have it's power?" Krillin demanded.
"Yes. But now Galaphile is returned to the dead for good," Vegeta said. "And the Legendary Super Saiyan power removed from my veins. I am a Saiyan warrior for fights with his strength alone. I need no cheap power-up tricks!"
"And then it is so. Shall we return home?" Shin asked. The Kai casted the spell and they faded from the World of the Dead.

That was a bit longer than usual. I didn't like the way this chapter turned out but I left it alone to see what you all thought. Tell me in your reviews. And someone asked me to pair 18 and Eidolon up. Tell what you all think about that. Maybe I'll give it a try if you all like the idea. Let me know what you think in your reviews. And as for the Martial Arts tourney I went to I scored 82 out of 376. Which wasn't too bad but my father was disappointed, lol. I catch you all around next time on Dragonball Z!
