Corma sat up, feeling the aches from the eruption that was Broly's ki. After rubbing her eyes for a few moments to regain the vision robbed from her eyes by the light show, she reopened them and her mouth hit the ground. Broly floated in the air, surrounded by a column of green ki, as a Super Saiyan. But his exterior wasn't the only change that frightened her. His energy, which had been a few safe notches lower than Zuchino's Super Saiyan form, was like an inferno. It covered the planet in its entirety, no other power level was tangible anymore, short of a small blip that she could identify as her brother's.
She also paid note to their surroundings: it was terraformed for the absolute worst. Gone was the winter wonderland of white snow, in its place was a barren wasteland of molten rock and blackened mantle for all to see. She looked over at their ship and that's when her mouth hit the ground yet again. The ship had imploded within itself from the energy Broly's unleashed on the planet, balled up like a piece of trash meant to be thrown away. She scrambled to her feet and ran over to the crumpled piece of metal.
Upon reaching the sight, she breathed a sigh of relief. Both Tony and Bruce had managed to make it out of the ship. Small victories.
"What the fuck is happening?!" Bruce practically screamed out to her, having been woken up from his coma. "One second it turns different colors and now the planet seems to have completely changed. Did we win?"
"I wish," Corma stated, turning back to look at the Saiyan still floating in the air. "Broly's transformed and…it's not good. You both get somewhere safe now, this isn't going to be pretty."
"What about you?" Tony asked, his helmet collapsing around his head as he grabbed onto Bruce's collar.
"Remember when I said I would step in if it got worse?" Corma stated, removing her jacket in a huff and powering up her blue aura around her body. "It just got awful." With that, she blasted off.
Zuchino eyed the new Super Saiyan. The legend called for only once every 30,000 cycles. Instead, he had another one sitting right in front of him. His senses were practically screaming in overload from the massive amount of energy pouring from Broly's being. He never thought he'd feel anything stronger than Freeza, let alone another Saiyan. But now? Broly's supernova of a ki signature made Freeza's 100% energy output feel like a firework spark. And he had to contend with that on top of Broly's inevitable lust for vengeance for the death of his father. The cards were stacked against him…and he was ready to go down fighting.
After blazing his golden aura around him, he blasted off towards Broly.
By the time he came to his senses, he was laying in a crater with his entire body radiating with pain. He hadn't even seen Broly move, but his entire frontal frame was slammed by a truck going at full speed. He looked up to see Broly looking down at him with his palm aiming a green ball of energy down at him.
Broly let out a cruel cackle before he fired the energy ball down towards the dazed Saiyan. The green ball of energy blitzed down after the Saiyan…before a blue energy blast slammed into it and sent it veering off course. Broly scowled and looked to see who intercepted his blast. Corma dashed forward and delivered a roundhouse kick to the giant Super Saiyan's skull. If there was any impact, Broly didn't show it as he delivered a massive punch to her skull that launched her out of the sky directly next to her brother.
After taking a few seconds to find her bearings, both the Saiyans unsteadily stood to their feet and stared before the giant Super Saiyan. They exchanged a brief look before nodding. They looked back at Broly and zipped away. Zuchino reappeared in front of him, his fingers curling behind his head and fuchsia energy crackling off his body.
"Galick…" He charged as Broly lifted his hand before two arms locked underneath his, firmly locking him into place. In shock, Broly looked back to see a smirking Corma looking back up at him. Before he could retaliate, Zuchino thrust his arms forward, "GUN!"
Immediately, Corma disconnected from the giant Saiyan and dropkicked him directly into the blast. A large explosion forced them back; a mushroom cloud was left in its wake. Corma zipped next to her brother and they watched before Broly charged out of the clouds directly toward them. They were far too stunned to see practically no damage that Broly grabbed their faces in his large hands and rammed them into a lava-covered mountain.
Not deterred, Broly continued pushing the Saiyans through the mountain until he reached the other side. That's when he released them, delivered a roundhouse kick to Zuchino's head and an uppercut to Corma's temple. The Saiyan siblings coasted downwards before Zuchino, recovering quicker, dashed back up and threw out a jab. Broly dodged it and slammed his fist into the stunned Saiyan's gut, his strike practically being seen from the Saiyan's back. Zuchino's mouth opened, blood coming out, gritting his teeth and delivered a kick to Broly's head.
It connected and snapped Broly's neck to the side. Ignoring the egregious pain in his abdomen, Zuchino hopped higher before spinning back down to slam his fists into Broly's head. The brutish Super Saiyan flew careened down before Corma appeared in his path to blast him away with a large blue energy wave. Broly was pushed back for a few seconds before he began cruising through the wave, eventually emerging to grab the shocked Corma in both his hands, trapping her.
With an evil smile, he began dashing downwards at an alarming speed. Zuchino flew down to help his sister, but Broly casually raised an arm and blasted the smaller Super Saiyan away. Zuchino slammed into a cliff, his Super Saiyan state zapping out before he fell down to the ground. Unobstructed, he slammed Corma into the surface with enough force to crack the mantle for miles to see. Standing straight up, he looked down at the female Saiyan and channeled a green ball of energy.
Zuchino struggled to his feet, breathing heavily. The bastard's already stronger than Freeza and he hasn't even started taking this battle seriously yet. A large green explosion shook Zuchino from his thoughts. He looked up just in time to see Corma zooming towards him from the epicenter. He didn't have the time nor strength to dodge Corma slamming directly into him into a mountain face. Both Saiyans slumped to the ground, too beaten to attempt getting up at the moment. Broly looked over and released another cackle, banging his chest in such a fashion and generating power around them.
The ground around him began breaking apart at the power. Distracted, he wasn't aware of the powerful kick coming towards him. It easily forced him to the ground, his face dipping into the lava. Iron Man, wearing a new suit, quickly raised up as Hulk arrived to grab the hulking Super Saiyan by his feet and throw him into the air. He hopped up at him and delivered a giant foot directly towards the ascending Saiyan. Tony fired an energy wave towards the shocked Broly, generating enough power to blow him away.
With the psychotic Super Saiyan away, Tony dashed over to the Saiyans. Zuchino and Corma looked at him with a sigh before they stood up.
"You guys okay?" Tony asked to the sustained glares from the Saiyans. "Alright, stupid question. Can you both still fight?"
"I can, but I don't see it making much difference. Broly's power is practically unseen before in this universe." Corma stated as Zuchino sighed and crossed his arms.
"And my power has severely dwindled, anything short of a miracle would be needed to defeat him."
"Maybe I can help with that." King Kai's voice erupted in all of their heads, sending Tony and Corma into a fighting stance.
"Oh yea, Corma, Tony, this is King Kai. God over the East Galaxy." Zuchino quickly explained as he held his hand up once they began to open their mouths for questions. "No time for proper introductions; King Kai, what's your plan?"
"Do you think you could manage a Spirit Bomb?" King Kai asked as Zuchino thought.
"A Spirit-what's it now?"
"No, one needed to kill him would have to be practically the size of this planet. And with the planet so destabilized already, I don't think it could handle it."
"Not to mention our ship's gone," Tony added as Zuchino cursed underneath his breath.
"Any other ideas?" Zuchino asked, noticing the pile of rocks Broly laid underneath was slowly beginning to shake.
"I can't-wait, Tony Corma, do you think you can hold off Broly for about…seven minutes?" King Kai asked them.
Silence.
"I don't know, he's far more powerful than any of us," Corma stated. "But…I think we may be able to buy you five if we count our cards right."
"That's good enough. Zuchino, can you feel my power signature?" King Kai asked as ZUchino raised two fingers to his forehead and began concentrating. After a few seconds, he spoke up, "Yeah."
"Teleport here now!" King Kai said; Zuchino nodded and looked over at his two friends and sister. "I'll be back, don't none of you die."
"Shut up and go," Corma stated with a small smirk before he teleported away.
Broly came charging through from the rubble and planting a savage right hook to Iron Man's helmet, a roundhouse kick to the Hulk, and punching Corma in the stomach. All the warriors flew backward, but the Hulk was the first to recover and go after Broly.
He landed a quick jab before dropkicking Broly in the chest. Broly tumbled back before sticking the landing and dashing back towards the Hulk. However, an energy blast struck him and made him lose his focus. He could see Iron Man's hands smoking before the Hulk clotheslined him. Corma fell from the air and gave Broly a double-axe handle directly to his gut. Broly growled and clapped his hands around Corma's head. He threw her into the air before grabbing her leg and swung her like a mace, striking the approaching Iron Man and Hulk with enough power to send them flying. Holding the female Saiyan upside down, he opened his free hand and a blast crackled to life, aiming directly at Corma's face. The Saiyan began struggling before charging her energy in a last-ditch effort. She exploded it in Broly's face, allowing her enough slack to wiggle out of his grip.
She quickly turned and dashed away from the giant Super Saiyan. Broly growled and dashed after her, kicking up a giant dust cloud in his wake. Corma twisted her body back and began firing a barrage at the rapidly approaching Saiyan. However, they bounced off the cackling Broly's aura. He quickly caught up to the female Saiyan and delivered his blast to her She didn't even have enough time to dodge before it sent her flying into a blackened mountain of law.
Broly let out a cruel cackle before zipping out of the charging Hulk's way, confusing the giant. Broly reappeared with a hard hook to his cheek, sending the green giant flying backward. Tony twisted his arm to unsheathe a whip similar to Vanko's and swung it towards the giant Saiyan's neck. It quickly wrapped around it and began surging powerful bolts of electricity through it.
But it had no effect.
Broly simply looked down at the metal wire and ripped it from his neck before turning back to Iron Man with a dangerous smirk, enough to make Stark's blood chill.
"A shame, metal man." Broly chuckled, walking towards him. Tony raised up his arms and fired his repulsors, shooting a yellow beam towards the giant Saiyan. It bounced off his aura, Broly standing unamused. He then zipped behind the billionaire and delivered an elbow directly to his back, sending him careening down towards the ground like a meteor.
All three warriors stumbled to their feet, looking up at the glowing psychopath glaring down at them.
"You're all so WEAK!" He roared, several explosions erupting across the horizon at Broly's furious energy. "Where is the strong guy! The one I was fighting before! He was better than you all!"
"Well, try not to break it lightly." Tony quipped as he looked over at Corma. She looked back at him and gave a small, but curt nod. In an instant, Corma was in front of the Saiyan with a ball of energy. Broly stared forward, not even giving a reaction until the ball of energy exploded in a blinding white light.
"Gah!" Broly roared, swinging wildly in front of him. The three warriors quickly used his blindness to their advantage, getting away as fast as they could. "Damn you all!" Broly roared, his energy exploding around him with the power of a nuclear bomb.
In a flash, Zuchino took solace in the immediate change of environments from decaying the planet to King Kai's vibrant planet. He looked down at the small imp, monkey, and floating insect that King Kai called his closest companions.
"So, what's your plan?"
"Give them a few seconds, they'll be here soon." King Kai stated, making Zuchino look at him strangely.
"Who is comi-" In a flash, two figures appeared over the horizon. Zuchino blinked before he took in who was standing before him. The smaller one was purple-skinned, a white mohawk, and a strange, yet drawing stare at the Saiyan. He wore a light blue sleeved shirt (which was puffed up at the shoulders) and pants with a dark blue robe buttoned at the chest and an orange sash tied around his waist. Dangling from his ears was small yellow beaded earrings.
The taller one was dressed very similarly to the smaller one, just with different colors. He had long white hair reaching to waist and his expression was very, very stern.
"Who the fuck are they?" Zuchino muttered, not even seeing the jumping slap from King Kai aimed directly at his mouth.
"Watch your language! That is the Supreme Kai and his attendant!" King Kai roared at his student, making Zuchino wince before realizing what was happening.
"The Supreme Kai? I thought they were all wiped out by something?"
"No. Though I am the only one left, this is my attendant Kibito. North Kai, why is it you summoned me here?"
"Oh your majesty," King Kai said, pulling Zuchino into a bow next to him, "I humbly asked you here to heal my student here, Zuchino, the killer of Freeza." That caught the duo's attention, causing them to exchange a glance.
"He is the victor over Freeza, you say?" The Supreme Kai inquired, casting a questioning look at the Saiyan. "How is it that a Saiyan managed to rise in power enough to destroy Freeza?"
"Through a transformation," Zuchino stated, looking up at the divine duo. "The Super Saiyan transformation."
"Wow, I thought it was only a myth. I will give you my plaudits for ridding our universe of that monster. However, I fail to see why I have been summoned here to heal you, as the battle some time ago correct?"
"Right now, I am engaged in a battle with a being far stronger than Freeza and myself, a Saiyan whose power corrupted his mind and left him insane." Once he noticed unchanging stare, Zuchino decided to lay it all out, "Right now, two of my closest friends and my sister are holding him off while I am here. This Saiyan will destroy the entire universe if I don't stop him now. But I've run out of power and my body has grown more useless than I would like to admit. So please, not just on behalf of my friends, my sister, or myself, but on the behalf of the entire universe, please give me the power I need to defeat this Saiyan." Zuchino bowed his head once again, his breath hitched in his throat.
There were a few moments of silence as Supreme Kai looked over the Saiyan. Then Zuchino felt a prodding inside his mind, letting him know the Supreme Kai was attempting to read his mind. Though he was a bit hesitant given his past, he still allowed the Supreme Kai in past his mental guard. Another few moments of silence before he felt the presence leave his head and the Supreme Kai take a breath.
"My, quite the past you have. If this meeting was any other circumstances, I would decline to help you and probably would destroy you here for the crimes you've waged over the decades…but I've seen your connections to the Earthlings, how you sacrificed your life to defend that planet from the Chitauri. You may not want to accept it, but there's definitely been a change in your heart." The Supreme Kai explained, earning a glance from the Saiyan. "A change for the better."
With that, he gave his attendant a nod. Kibito returned it and walked forward, raising his hands towards the Saiyan. They glowed blue and instantly, Zuchino could feel a calming, yet nourishing presence engulfs his body. His wounds began mending themselves, even his torn and ragged clothing began stitching itself back together. But, above all else, he could feel his energy coming back.
"What is your strategy for taking on this new threat I must wonder? I can feel it even from here and, given from your memories, I do not believe your power will be enough to match his even with your Zenkai boost."
Zuchino sighed and looked over at the Supreme Kai with a smirk. "I've got an idea…it's not the best idea, but it's an idea."
Corma groaned as she felt the giant Saiyan's fist plant itself in her gut. For a moment, the world seemed to go dark before a bright and hot hue of green light brought her back to reality. The blast sent her careening to the ground while Iron Man shot forward, aiming a punch directly at Broly's cheek. Instead, the Saiyan ducked underneath his fist and kicked him into the air. Shooting after the dazed Tony, he grabbed him by the head and threw him down to the ground before giving chase. Tony collided with the ground headfirst and even bouncing into the air before Broly smashed his head back down.
He prepared another ki blast before he spotted the bruised and battered Hulk charging towards him. He instantly raised his hand up and fired a volley of small green energy balls at rampaging monster. Each collided with his skin but felt like bee stings. However, when the giant green monster was within the correct range, he grasped by the mouth with one hand. Hulk's hands immediately went to his wrist before he threw the Hulk away.
Zipping away, he grabbed the mutant and flip kicked him into the air before zipping away yet again to grab the Hulk's entire jaw in his hand. He smashed him into the ground, even dragging him along the magma and mantle before raising up the dazed Hulk and uppercutting him in the gut. Hulk sailed through the air before crashing into a mountain.
Corma flew forward with a punch, but Broly zipped out of the way and grabbed her by her throat. This time, he did nothing but begin to squeeze. Korma's pained gurgles echoed across the battlefield as Broly's face got serious.
"Where is he?!" He screamed in her face, but she was unable to speak. "Where is the strong one?!"
Not realizing choking Corma was the method of interrogation, he raised his hand to her face and channeled a great deal of energy in his palm. If the stronger guy left, then he would kill his weakling friends one by one until he came. However, before he could fire it, a powerful kick to his head stopped him.
This one, however, was more than enough to send him careening before a red energy wave collided with him. Corma fell but was immediately caught by two arms. She looked up to see her brother, his face now entirely healed from any wounds sustained by the previous battle.
"Oh thank Kami." She muttered, her larynx on fire. Whatever King Kai did, she was happy to know that it worked. Tony arrived nearby, massive dents peppering his suit and sparking shooting from exposed wiring across his body. The Hulk also arrived, big green bruises peppering his body.
Zuchino handed away his sister to the giant, with a small smirk.
"Take care of her and get away from here. I'm going to end this."
"Are you sure?" Tony asked as Corma looked over at her brother. He gave them another smirk that remained even as Broly broke through the rubble seething with rage.
"I got this. You guys go find shelter somewhere." With that, his smirk dropped and he turned back to the growling Saiyan.
"You!" Broly roared as Zuchino cracked his neck.
"Yep, I'm back. Ready for round 2? I got a special new trick to try." Zuchino also popped his knuckles.
"No, Zuchino! It's too dangerous!" King Kai screamed in his head, almost making him wince. "If you go through with your idea, you may not survive."
Zuchino considered it for a few seconds before chuckling. "If everyone else lives, I'll be fine with that," Zuchino stated. "I guess the Supreme Kai was right, after all, I am becoming a hero." With that, he powered up. His Super Saiyan state switched on like a light, shocking the giant Saiyan before him. He didn't think Zuchino had the power left to fight against him.
"Broly, I don't want to kill you. If anything, it's part of my fault you're like this and I wished to bring you back to Earth to atone for that." Zuchino let out a sad sigh as he looked down. "But I can't risk you losing control again like this." He stated as he felt a switch click again. "Kaioken…"
"ZUCHINO!" King Kai screamed yet again before Zuchino reengaged his mental block.
"TIMES TWENTY!"
There was a blinding red explosion that engulfed the Saiyan's body, blinding everyone. Even Tony's sensors couldn't block out the sudden rush of light and forced him to look away. Then came the shockwave that blasted him, Hulk, and the unconscious Corma away from the battlefield. Hulk caught the female Saiyan and held her as they hit the ground, skidding to a halt just before a giant pool of lava. After jumping back to his feet, the blinding light had materialized into a column of crimson light. Then it faded away, leaving a singular figure in its place.
Zuchino's hair remained on end and shaped like a flame, but that was the resemblance to the original Super Saiyan state left. Once again, his entire body was bathed in crimson and his red aura had not only grown bigger and less contained like before, it crackled with golden bio-electricity around his body.
"Well, that turned out better than I thought it would," Zuchino stated, looking down at his hands. Putting aside his amazement that he was still alive and in one piece, he looked up at the stunned Broly. "Now, let's try this again."
