Chapter 7 Dragon Universe
Rufus charged at Goku, weaving side to side. Goku kept his eyes locked on Rufus, just waiting to see who would strike first. Suddenly, Rufus jumped up, and then fired a torrent of black lightning. Goku zipped and dashed around, dodging every bolt. But then, where the lightning bolts made contact, a giant spikes of ice burst from the ground, nearly impaling Goku!
"Man, that is one serious move." Goku exclaimed, when he looked up, he saw Rufus in the air, doing some sort of fancy jump. "But I got you now!" He then jumped, with a momentum so strong, he flew towards Rufus at an immense speed. Goku then pulled back his fist for a swing and as he connected the shot... Rufus completely disappeared, gone in a puff of smoke. The abruptness of what happened shocked Goku, almost making him forget that he was in the air, traveling at massive speeds. Goku then found himself tumbling in the air, trying to fix his speed and posture. When Goku finally stopped, he took quick glances around the arena, having lost where Rufus vanished off to. But before he could ponder any longer, he was hit by a massive blast of electricity from behind. Goku, somehow still in the air, quickly spun around, trying to find who hit him.
"Hey! How 'bout you forget about Rufus and fight a Lightning God Slayer!" A voice called out. Goku turned his head to see a massive, muscular man with long, spiky, light green hair, holding out his arms, sparking with some sort of electricity. Goku then frowned at the man.
"What was that for?" He shouted, "Don't you know that sucker punches like should never be in a fair fight?!" The man only smirked.
"That's rich coming from you, you're the one that came here, uninvited and practically sucker punched everyone." The man said, "And who said this was a fair fight anyway?" The man then charged up a ball of lightning, as his arms sparked with electricity. "Alright, you want a fair fight? I'll show you what happens when I fight fair!" The man shouted. Goku didn't flinch at the sight of the charging attack. In fact he smiled.
"Now you're talking!" Goku said as he then cupped his hands and drew them at his side. "KAAAA!"
"Oh my, it looks like we're going to get an impressive display of power now, folks!" The announcer shouted. "And it's held between Sabertooth's Lightning God Slayer, Orga and the mystery challenger, Goku!"
"I don't know about you, but I'm betting on Orga to take this one." A different voice then exclaimed on the speakers.
"MEEEE!" Goku continued. Then a small, yet incredibly bright blue light emitted from his hands, as a ball of energy formed in between his hands. "HAAAAA!"
"You better be read, this attack vaporizes anything in its way! I'm not holding back!" Orga shouted out.
"MEEEEEEEE!" The ball of light became even larger, as Goku had to spread his hands in order to hold the energy.
"Here it COMES!" Orga shouted, "LIGHTNING GOD'S CHARGED PARTICLE CANNON!" A massive beam of charged lightning then shot from Orga's hands.
"HAAAAAAAAAAA!" Goku roared as he then released a massive blast of his signature Kamehameha, creating massive shockwaves that nearly destroyed the entire arena and shook everything in the entire city. When the two blasts collided, the Charged Particle was holding its own, it even seemed like it was actually prevailing against the Kamehameha.
"Hah!" Orga exclaimed, "What do ya know, it looks like the 'Mystery Challenger' is having some trouble with Sabertooth's Lightning God Slayer!"
"I wouldn't be so sure if I were you." Goku retorted, "Here goes NOTHING!" Goku then exerted a massive boost in power, as the Kamehameha fully blasted through Orga's attack. Orga could do nothing but scream in shock, as the blast fully overwhelmed him. Orga felt the full force of the blast as he screamed in terror. The blast cut through the floor of the arena, through the mountain and landed in the far off plains, creating a massive explosion in its wake. Goku remained in the air, not even looking remotely tired. When the dust finally cleared, he saw Orga staggering forward. Goku then landed right in front of him, while having a rather proud smirk on his face.
"What's the matter, huh?" Goku asked, "Come on, that can't be your all." Orga was still in shock, breathing heavily, as if just being conscious was too much for him.
"That power, it can't exist, it shouldn't exist." Orga managed to say, very weakly. "What the hell are you..." He asked before slumping to the ground, completely unconscious.
"My goodness! It seems that Orga was simply way out of his league!" One of the announcer shouted out. "Is there anyone who dares challenges this new-" An oncoming energy ball curved its way towards the area where the announcers were placed.
"Utter another word out of your mouths and the next blast I send you will come much faster and much closer!" Vegeta threatened, before having to avoid a swing from the woman from before.
"Focus on the fight at hand, fool!" The woman yelled. Vegeta grunted, dodging every attack thrown at him.
"Hey, Vegeta!" A voice cried out. Vegeta managed to take a glace off his opponent to see that the voice belonged to none other than Goku.
"What is it now, Kakarot?"Barked Vegeta, growling at the last word.
"I've just noticed, why are you still with the same woman from before?" Goku asked.
"Because I constantly get interrupted by those like you!" Vegeta shouted.
"Wait, what? This is the first time I called you out." Goku stated, "Anyway, I was wondering if you want to switch turns? This woman you're fighting, she does seem rather strong." Vegeta, in a huff of frustration, turned his entire body to face Goku.
"Yeah, yeah. Whatever." Vegeta said. "I already planned on leaving this place, so don't expect me to save your pitiful life again!"
"Your display of arrogance is shocking for a fighter such as yourself, turning you back against your opponent will cost you dearly!" The woman shouted, as she charged with her sword at the ready. But before she could bring her sword down on Vegeta, Vegeta spun around, kicking the woman with both his legs, sending her flying towards another wall.
"And yet, here you are, announcing your attack like some damned amateur." Vegeta said before attempting to fly off. Before being sent, crashing down, with his face under the grasp of a large palm.
"You don't leave a fight like this by just walking out." The man said, "Not to mention, you haven't even faced some of the more stronger warriors."
"Well then, Vegeta. I'll let you handle that guy for now." Goku casually said. "See ya." Goku then flew off, but not before he tried to remember something. "Wait, that one guy that looked all fancy, where on Earth did he run off to?" Suddenly, Goku felt as if his entire body grew heavy, to the point of him dropping out of the air and nearly losing his balance.
"Did you forget about me, monkey?" A voice called out. Goku attempted to turn his head, only to have his neck feel an immense crushing sensation. Then, right in front of him, Rufus had appeared from thin air, eyes closed and laughing softly. "Even with all your impressive strength, you've gotten yourself trapped under my Showering Ancient Wisdom."
"What is this?" Goku muttered through his teeth. "It feels like something's crushing my body with a whole bunch of tiny needles!" Rufus laughed some more.
"You can't escape, Goku." Rufus stated, "The light from this spell will crushed you until you either submit or die. Make your choice and choose wisely, monkey." Those last words were spoken in an almost, sing-songy voice, no doubt to rub his victory in Goku's face.
"Listen buddy, this is not the first time that I've been under this sort of pressure." Goku said, confidently.
"Well, even if that is true, my light will still crush you like an ant under a boot." Rufus said.
"Really?" Goku asked, now smiling. "Cause if I'm being real honest with ya, this nothing compared to 100 times Earth's gravity." Now all that bravado that Rufus once held was now starting to waver.
"What? That's impossible! No one can survive that much pressure!" Rufus shouted. But before he could say anything else, Goku suddenly let out a massive scream, Rufus looked just above Goku, noticing that the magic seal he placed was now starting to crack, before shattering completely. "How? You were struggling just mere moments before." Rufus yelled.
"Well, let's just say that you caught me off guard, but rest assured that won't happen again." Goku stated, no longer smiling. Rufus was now shaking. His elegance and composure had all but vanished, now replace by panic and fear. He then started to charge up something, emitting an electric, red hot aura, before summoning a massive wave of red flames mixed with lightning. Normally, Rufus would have been able to carefully aim the attack for maximum damage potential, but here, he didn't care if it was too large, or too dangerous. At this moment, all Rufus needed was for the flames to incinerate Goku. But Goku was not a fool, he then let out another scream, a sound so massive, it not only rattled the sky, but it also dispersed all the flames until they disappeared. All Rufus could do now, was stand in shock. He is a monster. An unstoppable monster. Rufus finally thought, as Goku then swung his fist at Rufus's jaw, sending him spinning before he hit the ground, completely losing all consciousness.
"Now who's next?"
