"Where would you first have me? Though I might suggest using me to capture VIPs of your enemy… After all, Kenobi here can attest to my power." Legoshi asked and stated after he let go of Windu's hand.
"I think we all can attest to that." Ahsoka added
"Grievous and Dooku always seem to slip away at the last minute and a powerhouse would help with that. We know you are powerful, but are you fast?" Anakin asked… not seeing Kenobi's vision or Ahsoka's first encounter.
Before Kenobi or Ahsoka could make a rebuttal to that question, Legoshi spoke first.
"Look in front of my feet." Legoshi said with a smile.
Anakin looked down at Legoshi's feet and saw that his, Kenobi's, Windu's, and Ahsoka's lightsabers were laid neatly, in a row, in front of Legoshi along with all the blasters and grenades of the troopers in the room. Everyone else followed suit and looked down and saw the same thing. They felt around their waists and confirmed it was no illusion.
"How did you do that?! I didn't even feel you take my lightsaber." Anakin asked in surprise.
"Fast enough for you?" Legoshi smugly smiled.
"I think I'm beginning to like him already." Kenobi stated, finding that he and Legoshi shared some of the same kind of humor.
"Anyways. We need you to help us retake the capital Lessu." Windu stated after they picked their weapons back up.
"I really don't need any help with that. Just tell me where to go, what to remove from the field, and what to capture and I should be done in just a few minutes or less." Legoshi countered.
"uuuhh.. Your targets to remove are any droids in this city." Windu says, remembering who is talking to.
Windu pulls up a hologram of the planet and zooms in on the location of Lessu. Legoshi closely examines the hologram and nods when he memories the location
"Do not harm any of the Twi'leks, the humanoids with the tails on their heads."
"So that is their species name." Legoshi thought to himself as he nods.
"Your target to capture is Wat Tanbor." Windu says as he pulls up a hologram of him.
Legoshi nods and leaves the bridge and makes his way to the hangar bay. The dock head was about to protest opening the hanger bay for someone without a ship to protect them but was ordered to open it up by general Kenobi. Before he left, he was given a handheld, circular disk, communicator by a trooper to contact the fleet when he was done. He nods and vanishes from the bay and out of sight.
Legoshi arrived seconds later to a city on top of a large pillar of rock surrounded by a chasm on all sides.
Confirming to himself that this is the capital, Legoshi vanished and reappeared in front of the metal gates of the city and knocked them down with just a tap of his left pointer finger.
Legoshi moved through the city and shot ki blasts through every non-living entity he could find. In just half a minute, Legoshi tore through the city and destroyed every droid in it, with the last being a command droid that was with Wat Tanbor.
A holo communicator fell from the command droid's hand as it fell with its head blown off from a ki blast fired in the back. There was an old man with a large beard still being projected from the communicator when it fell. Before the man on the other end could ask what is going on, Legoshi teleported behind Wat Tanbor and knocked him out with just a tap on his neck.
"What is going on? Is the republic already in the city?! I was not given any reports about republic troops landing…Come in Wat Tanbor!" Came the demands of the old man.
Seeing the projector, Legoshi picked up the communicator.
"I'm afraid that he has been incapacitated and the city has been liberated." Legoshi spoke.
"To whom am I addressing?!" The man demanded.
"You first." Legoshi countered.
"All you need to know is that I am Count Dooku. Now…You?" Dooku answered with a small bit of a threat in his voice.
"I'm Legoshi and all you need to know is that I have been "hired" to end this little war of yours… See you soon." Legoshi answered with a wave before effortlessly crushing the disk in his hand.
Legoshi pulled out his own holo communicator from his waist cloth.
"I have liberated the city and have knocked out Wat Tanbor for you." Legoshi said as he pulled Wat Tanbor's unconscious body into view to prove his point.
"Well done! I count that only took you about 45 seconds to fly from orbit, land, destroy all the droids in the city, and knock out Wat Tanbor… Most impressive." Kenobi answered.
"Holy crap that was fast!" Legoshi could hear Ahsoka almost shout out.
"I also had a little chat with this Count Dooku of yours: Old man, large beard, seems full of himself."
"That's him alright. We will send a shuttle to pick up Wat Tanbor. I will handle with clearing out the other villages." Kenobi notified.
After the clean up on Ryloth. Legoshi returned to the command ship and awaited his next suggested course of action.
"By the way Legoshi… You said you were mortal once. How did you become a god?" Ahsoka asked as they left the system.
"My divinity was always with me like a small ember. It was a traumatic event that almost killed me that made that ember into a roaring fire and my master helped me control it and keep it burning forever or at least feel like forever… I was not as invincible back then." Legoshi answered.
"How old are you if I may ask?" Anakin asked.
Ahsoka turned to her master and was about to berate him on being rude but was interrupted when Legoshi answered.
"I'm a few years to decades older than 5 million years. If you mean physical how old… I'm probably 19 to 20 years old…physically."
Ahsoka and Anakin looked quite surprised for a moment before they regained their composure.
"You certainly know how to keep in shape then." Anakin laugh to break the awkward silence.
A day later:
Legoshi was brought to Coruscant to speak his request and offer to the Jedi Council. The council asked why they could not sense him in the Force. Legoshi explained that his presence can't be sensed by those without divine power, and gods are normally the only ones that have such power. Kenobi vouched for Legoshi's title claim and him, Ahsoka, and Anakin gave their witness testimonies to his speed and power.
Legoshi gave his offer to help end this war as quickly as he could and in exchange, they would train him how to defend and attack on pure instinct without conscious thought getting in the way.
Yoda asked Legoshi for his age and Legoshi gave it to him. Another council member asked him why he wants this training and Legoshi answered that he wanted it because of his inability to achieve the final lesson of his master Gouhin, Ultra Instinct.
Windu asked Legoshi to what ends would he use his newfound power and Legoshi simply responded that he wanted to make his master proud.
The council had no further questions and asked him to leave while they debated on whether or not to accept his offer.
It only took the council a couple of hours to reach a conclusion before calling for Legoshi's return to the council chamber.
Yoda was the first to speak.
"Normally train those who are older than young children we do not, made exceptions in the past we have *Looks to Kenobi*. Based on the recommendations of both Kenobi and Windu along with your discipline witnessed as Kenobi described, accept your offer the council has."
"Also, because we believe you would be invaluable in ending this war of course." Kenobi added.
"Thank you for accepting my offer." Legoshi says with a slight bow.
"What can I do to make this war end as quickly as possible. What is the primary objective of this war?" Legoshi asked.
"Simply put, the defeat of the Confederacy of Independent Systems. To be more specific in objectives: the capture of The Sith Lord and head of the Separatists Count Dooku, The general of the droid army General Grievous, and The assassin Asajj Ventress. A secondary objective would be the capture of Nute Gunray, though we can handle him. If you can accomplish these then this war will basically be over, and we will then train you on our end of the deal." Windu stated as he pulled up hologram images of these individuals.
"That title eludes me. What is a Sith Lord or simply a Sith? You seemed to go out of your way to state that title of his." Legoshi asked.
"The Sith are like jedi in terms of power and abilities but are the opposite in morality and beliefs. To put it simply, Jedi are meant to be selfless while Sith are selfish. The assassin Ventress is also a Sith." Kenobi answered.
Legoshi nodded in understanding.
"That is all for now. We will contact you if we locate any of them. Until then you may do what you wish on Coruscant." Windu states as he gives Legoshi a holo-communicator before dismissing him.
There was not much for Legoshi to do on Coruscant, still being the introvert that he is, but he decided to find restaurants and sample their foods and drinks for future recipes for him to make. Legoshi did learn one thing that was very different for him to experience…He learned that he hated death sticks, and anything like them.
A week later:
Legoshi was on a roof top of the highest buildings on Coruscant start gazing when his communicator began to flash in his waist cloth.
"Legoshi. We have confirmation that General Grievous and Ventress are planning an assault on Kamino. Meet Kenobi in the council chambers and he will take you to Kamino.
"On my way." Legoshi almost lazily answers.
Legoshi met Kenobi and boarded his republic destroyer. While it only took a few minutes for them to reach Kamino, if he knew where Kamino was he would have gotten there in seconds, Legoshi thought to himself.
Once the ship came out of hyperspace to Kamino, Legoshi immediately left the bridge and to the hanger to await the arrival of his target. Once the separatist fleet arrived, Kenobi informed Legoshi that General Grievous was on the cylinder-shaped ship with the long neck on top and bridge on top of that.
"Just as good of a time as any to try out my acting skills." Legoshi says as he let's his destroyer's aura surround his body.
Legoshi flew out of the hanger and teleported on top of the room leading into the bridge. Legoshi cuts a whole around himself using a beam sword made from his ki on his right hand and floats down into the ship.
"Sir. We have an intruder!" Came the voice of a tactical droid.
"There was no boarding craft! Where is the so-called intruder!?" Grievous yelled.
Before the droid could respond, the metal door leading out of the bridge almost instantly turned to ash as Legoshi was revealed to them touching the air where the door used to be with his right pointer finger.
All the droids in the bridge immediately turned around to face the intruder and opened fire. Grievous turned around to see all the blaster fire being accumulated into a red ball of energy in the intruder's left hand. Grievous turned on 2 of his lightsabers after Legoshi crushed the ball of energy into nothing with his left hand.
"Who the hell are you and how did you get on my ship?!" Grievous angerly demanded.
"Simple… I cut a hole in it and then knocked on your door…now then." Legoshi answers.
"let's see if I remember how to do this… stand up straight, give an intense but calm look, let your aura glow intensely, and most importantly of all…speak in a calm and threatening voice while showing them how futile it is to defy you." Legoshi thinks to himself as he adjusts his posture and aura accordingly.
"Why should anyone give their name to worms? Now you can either bend your knee to your greater or I can break you and make you humble." Legoshi spoke in a voice that reverberated the walls with its calm and sinister.
While the droids began cowering and dropping their weapons to the demonic looking being with purple glowing eyes before them, Grievous growled in rage as he leapt at Legoshi. When Grievous' lightsabers touched Legoshi, they bounced off his fur like plastic bottles to a steel wall.
"You dare insult me with such weak weapons?" Legoshi growled.
Grievous was taken aback a bit by the ineffectiveness of his lightsaber strike as he regained his balance. Grievous pulled out his other two arms and lightsabers and begins to attack again.
"You and your Jedi filth will all burn before me!" Grievous shouted in defiance of his own growing fears.
Grievous aims two of his sabers at Legoshi's neck and the other two at his eyes. When Grievous' lightsabers contacted Legoshi, they passed right through him as if he was a hologram. The moment Grievous passed through Legoshi, he stumbled and fell flat on his face as he had last all four of his arms at once.
Grievous turned his head on the floor to look back and saw Legoshi holding two of his arms in each of his hands. Without turning around to face him, Legoshi used the power of Hakai to erase Grievous' arms from existence in less than a second.
"Don't compare me to such low mortal titles and standards. Now on your knees!" Legoshi threatens as he turns around and his aura flares even more intensely.
The droids in the room immediately do as Legoshi demands as if the order was for them. Grievous growls in frustration as he tries to crawl away. Just as he reaches where the door once was, he feels something grab his legs and neck and holds him in the air upside down.
White rings of Ki were around his neck and his remaining two limbs as he is turned around to face Legoshi. Legoshi pushes his right hand towards the ground which flips Grievous right side up, pushes him to the ground with his legs bent in a sitting/kneeling posture.
Grievous was about to growl in defiance but was stopped when Legoshi put a finger to his neck. Grievous soon found out that he can no longer speak as whatever served as his voice had been reduced to ashes in his throat.
"Speaking in such disrespect and foolishness and I will no longer let you have the privilege to cry out for help." Legoshi threatened.
He then kicked Grievous onto his back, place his right foot on top of his chest and started applying pressure that began cracking it and the floor beneath them which threatened to crush the organs behind it. Legoshi then pointed his right middle and pointer finger an inch away from Grievous' eyes.
"And continue to look at me with defiance and you will never see the world of light again." Legoshi threatened as he stared intensely at Grievous.
Not since the operation on his body that turned him into a cyborg, or the first time he defied Darth Sidious himself had grievous felt such fear, and even then, Sidious has never made him feel this helpless before.
For the first time since becoming a cyborg, Grievous passed out from the fear as his head slumped to the left side.
Legoshi straightened back up and took a deep breath before relaxing a little bit, but not entirely dismissing his aura.
"I may have overdone that *Nervous laughs* I guess I can scare myself sometimes." Legoshi thinks to himself.
Legoshi Picks up Grievous and throws him over his left shoulder. He then extends his right hand out and creates a grape sized dark purple ball of energy that he drops to the floor. The entire ship, along with all the droids aboard it vanishes from existence in light purple balls of light in a matter of a few seconds.
Before he flew off to one of the star destroyers, Legoshi swung his right arm to the right without turning around, causing a massive explosion of white light to form at the center of the droid fleet that consumed the entire fleet, but sparing the republic ships.
Legoshi dropped off his prisoner in the nearest star destroyer before taking back off and towards the most densely populated area of Kamino.
Enough debris had fallen from the battle in orbit before the droid fleet was eviscerated for Ventress to assemble a droid attack force to assault the cloning facility from underwater. Orange, octopus like vessels began jumping out of the sea and on to the disk-shaped buildings of the facility. Ventress barely had enough time to jump out of the vessel she road up to the surface before Legoshi appeared before here and the droids with her. Legoshi was hovering a foot off the floor when he appeared before Ventress with his aura flaring back up.
"Your fleet no longer exists, and your colleague lies captured and broken in your enemy's hands by me alone. Unless you and what is left of your pitiful forces wish to be humbled in mind and body then I suggest you grovel." Legoshi threatened.
"Is that so?" Ventress mused.
She ignites both her red lightsabers.
"Make me pup!" She challenged.
The song Nanatsu no Taizai S2 - Escanor Theme. From the Seven Deadly Sins begins to play
"Have it your way then…Little mortal." Mocked back in a threatening tone.
Ventress leapt at Legoshi and swung her saber at him. Legoshi simply floated to the left and out of the way of the strike. Ventress' lightsabers turned to ash in her hands as Legoshi grabbed her left arm and flung her at her droids, knocking a dozen down like bowling pins.
The knocked down droids got back up and fired at Legoshi along with the ones unaffected, but before a single shot could reach Legoshi, he vanished from sight. Immediately after he vanished, dozens of Legoshi began to manifest and chop down each droid with a single strike. Ventress got back up to witness her accompanying forces be destroyed in a second with the dozens of Legoshi, one for each droid now surrounding her. She could see the assault craft they had forged for the assault being reduced to ashes instantly one by one, with each evisceration happening a second between each other.
She tried to Force Push them away from her but didn't have any effect on them as two of them vanished and grabbed her arms. Another two grabbed her legs and all four of them brought her to a kneeling and bowed posture on the floor with her head tilted up.
1:53 part of the song plays.
She was forced to watch as all the remaining assault forced were reduced to ashes in a matter of seconds before another Legoshi reappeared a few feet in front of her with his back turned to her.
2:20 part of the song plays
Legoshi turns around and walks slowly and menacingly at Ventress with purple glowing eyes. Soon Legoshi was towering over with his mere presence seeming to suffocate her with its intensity.
"Now little mortal. Be free of responsibility in your utter defeat or be humbled by your broken body." Legoshi intimidated.
"You certainly are no Jedi talking like that, but what choice do I seem to have… I surrender." She admitted, not wanting to know what this force of nature could do to her.
Song ends at 2:35
"You certainly picked the better option than Grievous did." Legoshi complimented as his copies stepped into and vanished in him.
Legoshi shot 4 rings of white ki that bound themselves to Ventress' wrists and legs as she began to float an inch off the ground and move forward with Legoshi.
Legoshi was about to hand Ventress off to the approaching clones and Shaaki Ti when suddenly the area around him in a foot radius began to fracture like glass until what looked like reality around him shattered, revealing a massive Colosseum with what looked like ritualistic writing and symbols all over the ground with shades of black and white coloring the floor.
Legoshi looked around and saw an old man with black eyes with blue irises, wearing blue robes and a tall headpiece standing 10 feet in front of him. He saw a woman with white glowing skin and green hair wearing what looked like white weeding cloths standing to his left 10 feet away. To his right he saw a grey skinned man with black eyes with red pupils wearing black robes also 10 feet away.
The woman and man's power felt on par with a grand kai's while the old man felt like a supreme kai in terms of power, which still pales in comparison to his own.
"Would you like to explain why you kidnapped me?" Legoshi calmly demanded.
"You are the most powerful entity we have ever felt by far, and that power of yours. That power to utterly erase something from existence I cannot allow to remain in the temporal world." The old man answered.
"Your power would obliterate the balance in the universe, and we cannot allow this… it is why me and my brother are bond to this place in the first place." The woman answered next.
"You would take away what is mine to control, destroy, and nurture at my whim and that I cannot allow." The man answered last.
"The irony of their logic about me is quite amusing. They don't seem evil *Looks over to the grey skinned man* except maybe for how should I go about this?" Legoshi thought to himself.
"You can either remain here with us or we will be force to kill you." The old man warned.
"Or I can just leave, and you could leave me alone and everyone is happy?!" Legoshi shrugged back at him.
Seeing their unamused expressions, Legoshi frowned and surrounded his right hand with his destroyer's aura. Pointing his right pointer finger out on thin air as if he was pressing against a wall, Legoshi tore a hole out of the pocket dimension like a knife through cloth. He tore the hole into an oval the size of himself.
"Now if you don't mind, I will just be going now" Legoshi gestured to the hole and waved.
Before Legoshi stepped into the hole, it began to shrink rapidly until it was closed. Legoshi turned to the old man and saw that he had used his power to reseal his pocket dimension.
"I will not allow you to leave this place!" The old man shouted.
"*Sigh* You are not going to make this painless for yourself, are you?" Legoshi asked in exaggerated exhaustion.
Seeing that their expression did not change, Legoshi straightened up and let his destroyer's aura cover his body.
"Look, you seem like a decent enough sort who is just doing his duty, like me as the God of Destruction for this universe. I am not destroying the balance you clam to protect, I am a fundamental force of balance for this entire universe, like you believe yourself to be. So, in respect to our similar duties I will say this to all three of you."
Legoshi's eyes turn purple and symbols on his chest begin to appear and glow as he looks to all three of the deities.
The Father, The Son, and The Daughter could all feel his overwhelming power like a blazing quasar threating to burn them to ashes. They were startled at first before they regained their composure even though this was only the second time in their immortal lives had they felt fear, but even then, this was a much greater danger than that time.
"If you let me leave and never interfere with me again then I promise you that I will not hold this offense against you, and we can all be on our merry way *smiles for a short time* but continue to hold me here then I will have no choice but to permanently remove you. The work I do and have done for creation I will not allow for lesser deities to undo. Since you all are deities then you should be able to sense the massive gap between our power and you know how this will end because of it."
All three deities get into an attack posture.
"Just remember, I tried to be nice." Legoshi threatened as he vanished from their sight.
The father only had enough time to place his hand over his chest as a fist collided with and broke his hand and several of his ribs. Legoshi grabbed the old man's right arm before he flew backwards from the punch and flung him behind him. The old man was sent flying through the Colosseum, meditation chamber, out the mausoleum, and buried several meters in the nearest mountain side.
The son shot red lighting at Legoshi when he saw his father be sent flying through the mausoleum. Legoshi flicked the lightning with his right thumb and pointer finger, sending it back at The Son. The Daughter unleashed a massive blinding light to try to obscure Legoshi's vision. She then turned into a hippogriff and lunged at Legoshi. Legoshi dispelled the light with his overwhelming power and caught her beak with his left hand. With a simple flick of his left wrist, Legoshi tore off the top beak of The Daughter. Legoshi then slapped her across her face, that was pouring blood, into the far wall, causing the wall to collapse on top of her.
The Son had finished deflected his own attack when he saw the horrific damage done to his sister.
"NOO!" He roared in anger.
Legoshi saw that he was going for red lightning again and was about to flick it again but saw that he could not as the "lightning" wormed its way slowly across his body. He could feel his excess Ki being drained from around him and the "lightning" trying to enter him and draw from inside his body.
Unfortunately for The Son, the life force of a destroyer cannot be taken away from them, especially from someone weaker than them.
This is the first time in his long life that Legoshi had ever encountered a draining technique and was fascinated that he could even feel it, even though it would never affect him in any meaningful way.
Legoshi's counter to this attempted life drain was to throw The Son's sister's beak at him so fast that he could not dodge it.
The Son managed to block some of the impact with his hands, but the beak shattered on impact, and he was sent flying backwards into the opposite wall. Cracks began to form throughout the wall, but somehow the wall managed to stay up.
The Son fell onto his hands and knees, but before he could fully get back up, Legoshi grabbed him by the throat and pinned him against the wall. The rubble where The Daughter was exploded, revealing a very bloodied woman whose nose and upper lip were slowly regenerating from being ripped off her face.
Just as Legoshi had turned around to see The Daughter had gotten back up, The Father had just flown back in and landed 5 feet behind Legoshi. The Father was bloodied around the head and back as he faced Legoshi once again. The Father pulled out a ceremonial dagger and charged at Legoshi. Legoshi caught the dagger with his left hand and snapped the blade into pieces with a single gripping motion.
"I admire your determination… I really do, but I'm afraid I cannot allow you to keep me here, thus undoing all my millennia of hard work to balance life in the universe. I'm going to give you one more chance at this."
Legoshi turned around and held The Son off the ground by the neck with his right hand. He Looked to The Father and Daughter.
"Allow me to leave and never interfere with me again or all three of you along with this entire dimension will cease to exist." Legoshi threatened in a menacing tone of voice.
All three of them tried to look into the future and look for any route to victory over Legoshi, but all they saw in the timelines that they try to incarcerate him is nothingness.
"I can't do that, or all of my efforts here will have been hypocritical." The Father answered after a few seconds of tension.
"Why won't they just get the hint?! These guys are the most stubborn beings I have ever met! Do I really have to do this for them to final get the point!" Legoshi nervously thought to himself.
"….So be it." Calmly and coldly answered.
Legoshi lowered The Son, who is still struggling in his grip, to a face-to-face level and held his left hand in front of The Son's face. His top fingers were extended straight up with the top of his thumb bent and crossed over the center of his palm.
"No…. NOO DON'T DO IT!" The Daughter begged loudly.
There was a long pause before Legoshi finally acted.
"I'm sorry… but you chose this…..Hakai."
There was a small flash of light over The Son's body before he slowly began to turn into small, light purple balls of light that quickly disappeared as quickly as they appeared.
The Son screamed in terror as his body slowly but surely broke down into light and evaporated from existence. The Daughter covered her mouth in horror and The Father gritted his teeth in rage as The Son soon vanished from all of existence.
Legoshi put his hands to the sides of his pants as there was nothing of The Son to grip anymore.
Both the Father and Daughter could no longer sense The Son, which meant that he was truly gone… which they thought that the only way to do this was to use the dagger that was in pieces on the floor.
The Father flew into a rage and blasted a massive beam of deep blue lightning at Legoshi, but the lightning quickly dissolved into non-existence as soon as it touches Legoshi's aura.
"*Sigh* even when faced with oblivion you still chose your duty over survival. I am Impressed, I truly am, but I most also chose duty." Legoshi states as he teleports in front of The Father.
Legoshi held out his right hand out with his thumb over his palm.
"As Destroyer of this universe I hereby permanently relieve you of duty…Hakai"
Just like The Son, The Father's body and soul soon evaporated into non-existence.
As soon as The Father was erased from existence, The Daughter fell to the floor dead as her lifeforce was connected to The Father's.
Legoshi saw this and teleported over her and checked for a pulse but found none.
Legoshi stood back up, folded his hands together, and lightly bowed.
"I am sorry." Legoshi said in respect and apology.
Legoshi looked around and decided that since there were no caretakers for this dimension that he should lay it to rest as well.
"Your work is done…Rest now….Hakai." Legoshi says as he dissolves the entire pocket dimension into nothingness.
Back on Kamino:
Legoshi found himself back where he was before he was taken into the pocket dimension. He looked behind him and saw Ventress still floating there.
"What the hell was that?" Ventress asked in great confusion.
"How long was I gone for?" Legoshi asked.
"You were gone?! All I saw was the area around you shimmer like fractured mirrors for a moment then suddenly turn purple for a moment." Ventress answered.
"Really? Hmm Interesting… Anyways, that was an unwelcomed interruption that I had to deal with." Legoshi answered as resumed what he was doing beforehand.
