Legoshi kept up his routine training of weight exercises and martial arts practice to keep himself in shape and his reflexes sharp as the centuries past. Along with improving his body, Legoshi kept his mind occupied and energized by learning new food and drink recipes across the universe. Legoshi was nowhere near as obsessed with food as Beerus and Champa are, but he found the art of crafting food and drinks at least relaxing and enjoyable.
The advice that Beerus gave him cropped up in his mind whenever he would do his work as God of Destruction and while he could never genuinely enjoy the act of destruction itself, he eventually found peace in the formation of new life and creation in the space that was once occupied by what he destroyed. Legoshi also tried to work on his acting skills as to intimidate others into changing their ways rather than destroying them whenever he could afford to try to stay his hand but needed some assistance from Gouhin and later Beerus himself as Legoshi was gentle hearted or at least kept to himself a lot.
Beerus was a bit embarrassed and amused by how long it took Legoshi to learn how to act intimidating and threatening.
"10 civilizations began and fell by the time you finally learned acting Legoshi!" Beerus mocked.
Legoshi's attachment to Gouhin grows over the millennia as he truly sees Gouhin as a father like figure since he had spent more time with him than anyone else. Legoshi had noticed Gouhin's hands off approach with him whenever he was not training and wondered why that was. A growing part of him wanted to blame himself for this hands-off approach as he thought that in some way, he was disappointing Gouhin. Legoshi wanted to make him proud but did not know how to accomplish this since no matter how good his progress had come along, Gouhin was still distant.
Legoshi found a fascination with insects as he spent some time with Gosha. He loved how diverse they are and their colorful carapaces. Their small size often has him philosophizing about life and the insects' role in it. He enjoyed watching them live their lives without a care in the world beside to exist and expand life.
The time Legoshi spent with Gosha reminded him of the horrible future of a galaxy Gosha showed him and how it threatened to spread to another. Legoshi asked Gosha for its location again for memory and once Gosha gave it to him, Legoshi compartmentalized the information into long term to be recalled 5 million years later, when it would be needed.
4,941,000 years later:
Legoshi arrived at the galaxy a thousand years before the time Gosha had shown him millions of years ago. Legoshi sensed the ki of trillions in the galaxy, which was a good sign that he arrived before the horrific galactic genocide by a biotech race. Legoshi went to each world that had life and erased the race he soon learned were called the Yuuzan Vong from the sapient races he saved by genociding the Yuuzan Vong. Legoshi did not stay at the worlds he saved as he traveled to the inhabited worlds to rid this galaxy of this toxic life. Legoshi had encountered enough of these creatures to retain a familiarity with their race's kind of ki signature by the 250th world he cleansed of them, enabling him to find which worlds were infested with them much faster. It would have been easier and quicker to just destroy the galaxy itself, and some destroyers would have gone this route, but that would have defeated the purpose of him coming here at this time, so he opted the longer route of surgically removing the Yuuzan Vong from existence.
The Yuuzan Vong quickly learned of a massive threat to their race as it had wiped out a fourth of their total population in a matter of an hour and threaten to render them completely extinct in a few more. Through telecommunications through their biotech, they learned that the threat was a single individual who possessed powers and speed on a scale never seen or recorded before and were left to briefly wonder who they are and why they are wiping them out. Some of them believed that they were a God of one of the other races of the galaxy that had come to eradicate them.
A small fortune remained for the Yuuzang Vong as they had sent out a fleet of living ships out of the galaxy thousands of years ago in an expansion effort of their empire, so even if all of them in this galaxy were killed, their race would still live on.
In just a matter of 2 more hours, Legoshi had successfully erased all the Yuuzan Vong in this galaxy from existence as he had used the power of Hakai on them since Legoshi believed they would have caused problems in the afterlife as well.
Once the deed was done, Legoshi recalled that he had seen ships leaving this galaxy from Gosha's trip to the future and decided to investigate by following the path he remembered them taking towards the nearest galaxy.
It took Legoshi only 5 minutes to reach the nearest galaxy but could not sense any of them in this galaxy, though he suspects that it is due to their lack of numbers and are hiding in populated worlds to mask themselves.
"Or they could all begone and I'm just overthinking this a bit." Legoshi thought to himself as floated far enough outside this galaxy to see it in its entirety.
Legoshi suddenly felt a twisting in his gut and looked down to see his stomach rumbling.
"I guess it would not hurt to stop by a planet to get a bit to eat before heading back." Legoshi thought to himself in embarrassment as he thanked that no one could have heard his stomach.
Legoshi sensed trillions of lives in this galaxy inhabiting thousands of star systems and was not sure which system he should choose. Deciding to just close his eyes and spin his right hand, with pointer finger out, around until he decided to stop. When he opened his eyes, his hand was pointing at the bottom right of the galaxy and so his course was set.
Legoshi flew into the galaxy and into the nearest system he sensed in less than 5 seconds. He stopped in orbit range of the nearest inhabited planet he sensed. It was a brown and dark orange planet with patches of green scattered across its surface. Legoshi could see a handful of what he believed to be small space stations that were white tubular shaped that stopped with an opening in front of it with a ball shape floating in the center of it. There were also around a dozen of smaller, oval shaped ships with fins, an upward tail, and a neck with a windowed head at the front that were scattered around the stations.
"Maybe it's this planet's defense force? But there only seems to be one life form among them. Maybe it's automated and managed by one person?" Legoshi wondered as he decided to politely fly slower towards the station with the one life from in it.
Meanwhile in Said station:
"Ummm sir… There is a life form approaching this ship" Came the voice of a droid.
"Is it a republic ship or just a lost traveler? We are expecting the Republic to breach this blockade soon." A green colored humanoid thought to himself as he sat as his throne like command chair.
"Can you get an ID on the vessel? I can't see anything from here." The green captain asked.
"There are no ships approaching sir… Just a single lifeform." Answered the droid.
This droid and most in the bridge of this station were basic humanoid shaped, light tanned in color, elongated faces, dark circles that represent eyes, and packs on their backs with antenna stick out of the packs.
"I don't recall any destroyed vessels in this area recently. What the hell is approaching us?" The captain thought to himself
"Captain look! Over there!" A droid, with yellow spots on its body, pointed at the center most observation window 10 seconds later.
The captain squinted and saw a humanoid form flying towards them at rather high speed for something that small. A few moments later he could decern the features of the humanoid. It was an anthropomorphic wolf that was wearing what looked like ritualistic, ceremonial, or religious cloths.
The wolf slowed its approach until it was inches away from the center observation window. What stunned the droids and the captain the most was how alive the wolf looked without a space suit on in the vacuum of space and nearly jumped out of his chair in surprise when the wolf knocked on the window as if to get their attention.
In a panic, one of the droids operating the bridge auto turrets opened fired on the wolf.
"I didn't order you to…" The captain was about to shout.
What the captain was expecting was to watch a disgusting scene of a blown apart corpse in his view that he would have to endure as he was about to reprimand the droid but was immediately cut short when the turbo lasers began to swirl, condense, and stop on top of the wolf's now extended left hand as if the wolf had caught the lasers like a ball and was now holding it in his left hand. The wolf, completely unfazed by the fact he was attacked, closed his eyes, smiled a little, and knocked in a polite manner with his right hand.
The captain was now in a state that is equivalent to sweating as he had no idea how to proceed. The captain saw the wolf open its mouth a few times as if it was trying to speak and then quickly close its mouth and rub the back of its head in a way that appeared to be embarrassment. The wolf floated back a few inches and began to extend its right pointer finger and began writing something in front of the window using a white colored power the captain had never seen before.
"Sorry if I scared you, but do you have any food? I'm a bit hungry." The wolf wrote in galactic common in the middle of empty space.
One part of the captain wanted to laugh out of confusion and fear, and another didn't know whether to order a full barrage at this now clearly dangerous entity or to simply answer it as to not provoke it. Deciding on the safer option first, the captain walked up to the window, breathed on it to fog up the window and wrote backwards so that the being in front of him could read it.
"I must apologize for that unintended aggression. I must also apologize that there is no food in this station." He wrote in the window.
The wolf looked past the station and towards the planet behind them.
"But there must be food on the planet below, right? I will just fly down for a bite and leave if you don't mind." The wolf wrote back.
The captain gulped for a moment in indecision as he had the choice of upholding his orders or facing an unknown danger. In the end the captain decided to stick to his honor.
"This is a planetary blockade and I'm afraid I can't allow you to pass." He wrote on the window.
The creature seemed to sigh, float a few more inches away, and crush the turbo laser orb in his left hand into nothing.
"I understand that you have obligations, but you won't be able to stop me…. Bye." The wolf wrote with a smile and a wave.
Before the captain could make any orders, the wolf vanished before his eyes and the optics of the droids.
"The life form disappeared from our scanners sir!" The yellow spotted droid a couple of moments later.
After a few more moments to analyze what just happened, the captain concluded that the wolf is far faster than he appeared to be and has already reach the surface of the planet. This conclusion affirms to him that his choice to take the more peaceful option as the best choice he could have made.
"Sir! There is an incoming transmission from Wat Tambor!"
"*sigh* put him through." The captain ordered while collecting himself.
"Should we tell him about the life form?" The yellow spotted asked.
"No… That possible nightmare is Wat Tambor's problem now." The captain affirmed.
Back With Legoshi:
While a part of him wondered why the planet was being blockaded, it was not his job to worry about the affairs of mortals that does not pertain to culling out the old and problematic life and worlds of the universe.
Sensing the closest concentration of Ki, Legoshi flew down to the planet's surface and hovered a few hundred feet over what looked like a bunch of those droids he saw through the station window circling and patrolling around a bunch of kneeling humanoids with head tails. The humanoids varied in color from purple, green, blue, red, and orange and some with a mixture of them.
"Commander! There is a flying humanoid lifeform above us! Orders?!" a droid asked its commanding officer.
While greatly confused and surprised by the entity floating above them, they quickly regained composure.
"Fire at them." The droid commander said in a monotone voice.
A droid on a four-legged, black AA gun turns its cannon towards the entity and fired an AA shell.
In one graceful motion, Legoshi spun the shell around himself and sent it back at the turret, destroying it, the operator, and the neighboring turret.
"Fire at wi…" The droid commander was about to order but stopped when Legoshi vanished.
Before they could look for their target, The commander's head was bumped forward from behind as if to get his attention.
"That was not very welcoming. Now what do you have to say for yourself?" Legoshi asked.
Legoshi had his right hand behind the droid commander's head with his middle and point finger held forward and his thumb stretched upward, forming the well-known gun hand gesture.
The humanoids looked on in dumb struck surprise and curiosity as Legoshi had displayed feats they have never witness before in just seconds.
"Fir.." The droid commander was about to order.
"Wrong!" Legoshi shouted in a joyful and criticizing manner.
Legoshi's hand quickly shot up and a white beam of light shot from his middle and pointer finger. The light incinerated the droid's head instantly and flew into each of the long-faced droids' heads and incinerated them in the same fashion.
In less than a nanosecond, all the droids in the small encampment had their head incinerated. If someone was looking from above, it would look like a strange symbol instantly appeared on the ground and disappeared just as quickly.
The humanoids did not know how to truly react at first. Some felt a bit of relief that the droids were gone, but now all of them were unsure as to how view this individual. They all knew he was powerful and fast, but they did not know if he was friend or foe.
Legoshi lowered his hand and looked around at the now free hostages. Seeing the pitiful state, they were in, Legoshi doubted they would not have any food on them or possible at their homes. Before Legoshi was about to leave the survivors to their own devices, his stomach growled in protest of just leaving without trying to look for food.
Legoshi slowly approached one of the freed hostages, a female with purple skin pigmentation.
"I can probably guess the answer to this, but do you happen to have any food here?" Legoshi politely asks.
Legoshi touches the binds on the woman's hands with a single finger and instantly turns them to dust.
The woman timidly and slowly gets off the ground and with an expression of gratitude and caution, starts speaking in a language that he can't understand.
Legoshi looks around in the hopes that someone understood him, but as the other hostages approached him, they started speaking in the same language he could not understand.
"Crap. It's times like this that I wish I had Gouhin's omni linguistics." Legoshi disappointedly thought to himself.
Legoshi was about to call this planet a bust and leave when he felt the unusual ki signatures, numbering in hundreds to a few thousand, approach the planet. Most of the signatures felt like the same person but slightly altered each time along with a handful that stood out of the crowd for being signatures of individuals who did not share those similarities.
"Hope that means my luck just improved." Legoshi thought to himself as he flew into orbit to greet the newcomers.
With said newcomers:
Three ships of triangle like shape, red and white coloring, and two necks with two bridges sticking out on top and back, entered the system. These ships were Republic star destroyers filled with clone troopers and star fighters. In one of the hangers of the middle star destroyer was a female humanoid with a white and blue head growth that came down in two tails on each side of her head. She was sitting in the piolet seat of a small white, and red star fighter. This woman is named Ahsoka Tano, a padawan of the Jedi order.
She was soon approached by a human with brown hair wearing a light armor set colored in black. This was her master, Anakin Skywalker: a Jedi Knight of the same order. He gave his apprentice some words of encouragement as this was her first squadron she has been given command of.
Ahsoka soon took off with her squadron out the hanger bay and flew towards the blockade. When they were halfway within striking distance of the blockade, Ahsoka saw that the station and cruisers were all attacking something behind them and completely ignoring them.
Before the squadron had time to collectively wonder what was going on and what the blockade was firing at, a thin white line instantly appeared in their sight and seemed to stretch on forever in both x directions. A moment later the line disappeared and all the cruisers, droid star fighters, and the station exploded in a almost satisfying color and intensity.
"What the hell just happened?!" was the thought of the clone troopers.
"Woah." Was all Ahsoka could say to herself out loud.
Everyone one looking out the observation window of all the bridges of the three star destroyers had similar reactions to seeing a whole blockade attacking a unknown enemy and be completely destroyed within moments.
"Stay alert snips! Whatever just clean house in front of us can still be nearby." Anakin warned over the comm link to Ahsoka.
Anakin thought to himself that he should be able to sense something as powerful as this through the force, but he could not sense anything except a creeping fear, which startled him almost as much as what he just witnessed.
"No Kidding! *Small nervous laughter*" Ahsoka responded.
Ahsoka could not sense anything either and so had to rely on her sight to spot the potential threat. She decided to investigate the area that the blockade was most likely shotting at before it was wiped away.
"That goes without saying. Investigate with cation." The admiral of one of the ships said over the comms.
What was unnerving about the approach to the suspected sight was the lack of wreckage. There was not even a sliver of metal slag left for them to see and avoid.
Once Ahsoka was flying through what once was the location of the enemy space station, she saw a humanoid form standing upright in empty space.
"I think I got something. Going in for a closer look… Looks like a person if you can believe it." Ahsoka reports over comms.
"Careful Snips." Anakin cautioned.
Ahsoka slowed her ship to a slow crawl. A few moments later, the figure Ahsoka was approaching vanished and instantly appeared, in a cross-legged sitting posture, on the top side of her fighter, legs barely touching the front of the clear hood of the cockpit.
Ahsoka's instincts kicked in and started doing evasive maneuvers to try and throw off her new passenger from the top of her fighter. A second later, Ahsoka stopped when she concluded that throwing off her passenger would only annoy them, and this was most likely what destroyed the blockade… at least that's what her instincts told her. Ahsoka was impressed and a bit intimidated that the figure didn't move an inch off her fighter no matter how hard she tried to shake him off.
With the humanoid now in clear and close view of her, she saw it was a male anthropomorphic grey wolf wearing what looked like religious clothing. he had his right hand balled up under his mouth, his eyes closed, smiling, and his left hand was waving at her.
"aaaHH Master?! I think I found our culprit." She said nervously over the comms.
"And?! What is it, Ahsoka?!" Anakin asked back in worried anticipation.
"More like who it is….." She answered and started trailing off as she took in what she was seeing.
"I got you Commander!" one of the clone fighters shouted over comms.
"Stand down Slammer! Do not engage! I repeat do not engage!" Ahsoka shouted at her squad.
"Standing down." Slammer responded.
Ahsoka looked back to her passenger and saw that he had written something in white light in front of her hood.
"Sorry if I scared you. Quick question… do you have any food with you or on your ships?" The wolf wrote in galactic common.
Ahsoka's mouth hung ajar a bit as she slowly stopped her fighter completely as a small bead of sweat dripped down the back of her head.
"He's….hungry?!" Ahsoka said over comms.
"He?! I don't sense anyone there. Are you sure that is not a droid?" Anakin asked as he could not see or sense Ahsoka's passenger.
"That is no droid I have ever seen. To hairy and is wearing some profound looking cloths." Ahsoka answered.
"I have to agree with her General. No droid I have ever seen or known looks like that." Slammer also commented.
Ahsoka agreed with Anakin on one thing… Even though the wolf was just a couple feet away from her, she could not sense him in the force.
Ahsoka upped comms on all channels.
"Can you hear me?" Ahsoka asked on all open channels as she looked directly at the wolf.
The only response he gave was a slight tilt of the head to the right, indicating he does not understand what she wants.
"Ok… either he has no comms on him, or he can only write galactic common and not speak it." Ahsoka stated.
She saw the wolf sit up a bit, place his right hand over his stomach and smile with his teeth showing.
"Please?!" He wrote.
Ahsoka pondered for a bit on what she should do before deciding it be best to show a gesture of kindness and fulfill his request.
"Master… I think it best to make friends rather than enemies in this case. We are dealing with a huge unknown here and I don't think it would hurt to answer his request…. I'm bringing him to the ship now."
"What?! Ahsoka that's…actually for the best. Bring him in."
Anakin was about to advise against doing bringing him in, but if he believed that this "individual" was responsible for destroying the enemy fleet in mere moments, then it would be far more dangerous to upset him by refusing his request rather than just giving him food.
The admiral and clone officers protested, but Anakin assured them with the same logical reasoning he came to.
With Legoshi:
"Good… hope that means there is something to eat on that ship. I have not eaten breakfast or lunch." Legoshi thought to himself as he sees that the young woman piolet was bringing him into one of the three large warships.
Once the fighter landed in the warship's hanger bay, the cockpit opened, and the woman stood up and out of her ship. The woman coughed a little before extending out her right hand.
"My name is Ahsoka Tano. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Legoshi hopped off her fighter and a stood in front of Ahsoka. He was a couple of heads tall than her, with her reaching up to just below his pectorals.
"Hello! I am Legoshi. Sorry to speed this along but I have not eaten all day! Does this ship have a mess hall?" He greeted back with a gentle handshake as to not break all the bones in her hand by accident.
Just then a humanoid, with brown hair and white skin, in black armor approach him.
"There is a mess hall in the back of the ship. One of my men can escort you there, though don't expect anything fancy since this is a front of the lines warship." Anakin answered.
"I'll eat just about anything at this point so no need to worry." Legoshi reassured.
"My name is Anakin Skywalker!" He says holding out his left hand.
Legoshi took it and gently shook it.
"That's one heck of a grip you got there. Now, I have just a few questions for you if you don't mind."
"Can we walk and talk? *Holds hand over stomach* this kind of burns." Legoshi asked sheepishly.
"We can. Follow me then. You to Ahsoka."
"Yes Master."
Legoshi shrugs to himself at their relationship and follows Anakin. Legoshi sees Anakin step next to Ahsoka and lean into her left ear.
While Legoshi respects the privacy of others, his hearing was too good to not hear what Anakin was whispering to his apprentice.
"He is definitely not a droid with how his hands felt like skin. I cannot sense his presence in the Force… Can you?" Anakin whispered.
"Yeah! His certainly not a droid and no I cannot sense him either. I do not think I have ever encountered someone like this. Have you?" Ahsoka whispers back.
"No, I have not and I'm not sure if anyone we know has either."
Legoshi decided to ignore them though he knew why they could not sense him, though he does not know what this Force they are talking about is.
The mess hall looked like a very clean school cafeteria with long tables set in rows. There were a few clones already eating when Legoshi entered and took a seat after fixing himself a plate of mixed vegetables and thin slices of meat. Ignoring the occasional stares of the troopers Legoshi politely began stuffing his face. While it was not the best meal he has ever had, it tasted good enough to keep stuffing his face.
Legoshi had finished his sixth and final plate when a clone trooper came into the room and went over to Legoshi.
"Excuse me sir! Your presence is requested at the bridge." The trooper spoke in a military fashion.
Normally a destroyer would be annoyed or even offended that a mortal would give them any kind of order, but Legoshi was a calm individual, and the request was not unreasonable in addition to the fact they gave him what he wanted beforehand.
"Lead the way." Legoshi said as he got up.
The clone nodded and led Legoshi to the bridge. There were computer terminals on almost all the walls. Glass screens that show locations of their objective was in the front of the room. There was a short, raised column with lights in the middle of it.
Around the column were two clone troopers with their helmets off, a brown-haired human in an officer's uniform, a blonde-haired human with a thick bearded wearing white armor, and a bald, darker skinned human wearing light brown cloths. Anakin and Ahsoka were also present on the bridge.
"So, this is our mysterious and powerful guest. Not quite what I imagined but still impressive." The blonde-haired man stated.
"He certainly… demands your attention." The bald man added.
The white armored man was the first to approach.
"Greetings! Hope the cafeteria food was to your liking. I'm Obi-One Kenobi of the Jedi Order." Kenobi greeted with a hand held out for a shake.
"I'm Legoshi. And I did enjoy it, though if I had to comment on it, I would say your mess hall needs more condiments and spices." Legoshi stated as he returned the gesture.
"I'll put in a request for better food the next time I'm on Coruscant." Kenobi replied in a friendly manner.
"I'm Mace Windu of the Jedi Order. We would like to ask you a few questions if you have the time." The bald one introduced himself as he approached.
"Ok." Legoshi replied with a small nod.
"First and foremost of them is "Did you destroy that fleet?"" Kenobi asked.
"Yes. Were they allies of yours?" Legoshi stated and asked.
Windu and Kenobi could not sense from him if he was lying or not, but their instincts told them he was telling the truth.
"They were our enemies, so you actually did us a huge favor." Anakin answered with a laugh.
"Second, what are you? No offense but we have never seen a member of your race before and certainly never seen someone display the kind of power you have… based on Anakin and Ahsoka's description." Windu asked cautiously and as politely as he could.
"As of my race, I'm a humanoid grey wolf, though I'm sure you could already tell that. As for how I did what I did… Let's just say it's one of the perks of my job."
"And what is your job?" Windu asked.
"No offense to you but I do not wish disclose that information. It's not that I don't have the liberty to, I just don't want to answer that."
"Fair enough." Windu replied with a slight eyebrow raise.
"Third, why are you here?" Anakin asked.
Legoshi gave a sheepish laugh at that.
"I was flying about after doing some of my work and got hungry and decided to come here by random chance to look for something to eat… Sorry if that sounds unexciting but that is the reason why."
"A good day's work can make one hungry. Anyways, just one more question if you don't mind?" Kenobi politely asked.
"I suppose I can give you the time. Go ahead." Legoshi replied.
"This is more like a request rather than a question. Can you assist us in liberating the planet below?" Kenobi asked.
"I already freed a village down there. Is the entire planet taken hostage?"
"We still could use your assistance in freeing the capital. After that, we can handle the rest."
"We could offer you better tasting food if you help." Ahsoka chimed in.
"*Sigh* I am grateful that you gave me food when I had not eaten all day, but I really don't interfere with the affairs of others unless it meets certain criteria…tell you what * holds out his right hand and envelops it in a yellow aura* What if I gave you some of my power in order to complete your mission here as thanks for the meal?"
The 4 jedi looked at each other and pondered on the offer. Anakin, Ahsoka, and Kenobi looked a little disappointed at the offer while Windu looked content that they are getting anything, though is not sure how he will be giving power and how much of it he is giving.
"I suppose some help is better than none. Thank you for your assistance, Legoshi." Kenobi answers.
Legoshi knew that all they would probably need is at most a planet's worth of power, which to a destroyer is a pathetically small amount of power.
The moment Kenobi took Legoshi's hand, he underwent a change that neither of them were expecting, especially Legoshi. As the small amount of divine power flowed from Legoshi into Kenobi, Kenobi's hair changed from blonde to bleach white and a blue, light blue, and white aura surrounded him. Small lines of white balls flowed up the aura at different areas and intervals.
Legoshi immediately stopped and quickly let go of Kenobi's hand. The aura around Kenobi slowly faded and his hair returned to normal as the power that was flowing into him was taken back. Both Legoshi and Kenobi took a step back from each other.
"Well… that was certainly….. intense." Kenobi said as he caught his breath.
"Ultra Instinct!? How do they….?" Legoshi trail off in his thoughts as his mouth opened a little bit.
After a tense moment of silence and awkward stares, Legoshi slowly placed his right hand over his chest and took a 45 degree bow to Obi-One.
"It seems that against my ethics that I have underestimated you and admittedly didn't think much of you at first and I apologize for that. As an apology I will now be fully truthful and open to your, though you may find what I'm about to say hard to believe." Legoshi apologized.
All eyes were now glued to Legoshi in anticipation and curiosity.
"Allow me to reintroduce myself with my full title."
Legoshi straightens his back and looks at all the jedi.
"I am The God of Destruction of this Universe. I am Legoshi the Destroyer."
Dead silence clung to the air like a fog as no one else knew how to take this information. Some wanted to nervously laugh it off as an overconfident claim, while others wondered what they just heard is what they really heard, and if so, was it the truth.
"Well… That sure is quite a claim." Kenobi finally broke the silence.
What made this truly confusing and tense was that while the jedi could not read Legoshi's mind, the way that he said it so matter of factly and that all of their instincts were telling them that this was no boastful over exaggeration or lie.
"Is there a way you can prove it?" Ahsoka slowly pipped up.
Legoshi though on that for a moment.
"Normally these clothes and this earpiece would be enough to prove it, but that probably does not mean anything to you. *looks down at his left hand* I could show you a different and better example of my power… but as my title suggests, all I can really do is destroy."
They all pondered for a moment.
"Is there a way for you to lower your mental defenses? To let one of us see your memories?... With your promotion of course!" Kenobi asked.
"You're telepaths?" Legoshi asked.
The 4 jedi nodded.
"I have not really met any telepaths before. Hmm.. Yes I think I can let you in. Though be warned, a destroyer's mind, body, and soul are immune to possession."
"I wouldn't dream of it. So, does that mean I have your permission." Kenobi asked.
"Yes."
"Ok. Just relax and let your memories flow to the front of your mind." Kenobi said as he raises his right hand to Legoshi's forehead.
Legoshi felt something at the edge of his mind like a guest at the front door of a house. Legoshi let the feeling enter the front of his thoughts as the memories of his time as a destroyer began to flood into Kenobi.
Kenobi saw in Legoshi's mind a humanoid panda also wearing profound cloths that he called his master and attendant. He saw the training he went through to master his power and martial skills. He saw the destruction of civilizations, planets, stars, even whole galaxies in mere moments by Legoshi's power. He saw what it meant to be a destroyer and the criteria Legoshi made for something to be destroyed and was a little relieved by it in the sense that Legoshi was not evil at least but is still the most powerful being he has ever met.
Kenobi let go of the connection took a step back. A small bead of sweat poured down the left side of his face.
"You really are a god." Kenobi said dumbfounded.
"Not in the way people worship I want to stress! Just a force to balance the universe. A force with its own personality and will of course."
Legoshi awkwardly coughed a little as to try to change the subject.
"Now that you know about me and that I spoke truly, I have an offer for you."
The dumbfounded looks of the others slowly turned to curiosity as to what a god could be offering them.
"You know something that I do not fully understand… Do something that I cannot do, and I want to learn. I am willing to help you in whatever way I can within reason. In exchange for this help, I want you to train me in how to defend and attack without thought, for my body to be able to act on instinct instead of conscious thought."
"….You want to be a Jedi in exchange for your help in this war?!" Windu slowly asked.
"If I must be taught in the same steps as children and get new titles along with skills I do not require to get to your clear understanding of instinct then I guess that is what I want. This state of mind that at least you *points at Kenobi* have mastered is a state I have not gotten a grasp on in my own training. I know this state as Ultra Instinct and I believe you can teach me, at least indirectly, how to obtain this state." Legoshi said with a respectful bow.
"Hmmmm… You know, for a god you are quite humble." Kenobi commented
"I was once mortal like yourself, and I don't really look down on mortals as lesser…. Just less capable…. Uhhh… you know what I mean."
Windu stepped next to Kenobi and seemed to engage in quiet deliberation with him for about a minute before returning his gaze to Legoshi.
"While we can't speak for the entire Jedi council, if you can help us win this war and put and end to this violence that plagues our galaxy then I'm sure that it would go a long way in your case for acquiring your training in using your instinct and quieting your mind." Windu offered.
Legoshi approached Windu and extended his right hand.
"Deal?" Legoshi asked Windu.
Windu took Legoshi's hand and shook it once.
"Deal."
Author's Notes: This is a question that I have asked online friends and in the VR community and no one has given me much of a answer, so I ask this interesting food for thought question on you the viewer. Can a Jedi or Sith teach a God of destruction, at least indirectly, how to obtain the Ultra Instinct state. In my opinion, I believe that a Jedi or Sith can teach a destroyer this because of how they train for combat… to put it simply, the phrase "Feel. Don't think. Use your instincts." From Quigon Jin speak volumes to me how this can be done. I believe the only difference between Jedi and sith training to Ultra Instinct is that Ultra Instinct is a state that incorporates divine power and is used by those who are very powerful. Let me know in the reviews what you think the answer is.
