A/N: Sorry again for the long wait, I had a little trouble with my phone, also I'm starting to lose interest in this story. I have a really good plot going, along with some really awesome twists, and yet I can't seem to find any motivation to continue it. I'm not giving up on it, I just can't seem to focus on it. Btw, I have decided to hold the answers to all your questions until the end of each chapter from here on out. So let's get back into it.
Chapter 2: Dragon Ed - Part 2
Bulma's House (Dragon Ball Universe)
Luffy quickly pulled Natsu into the house, slamming the door shut and barring it with a bookcase. "Okay, I think we're safe!" Luffy sighed in relief.
"I don't think we're safe for long! Rolf is sending in reinforcements as we speak!" warned Edd as he peeked through the window blinds watching the ship send ground troops to besiege the house.
"Guys, what happened out there?! Please don't tell me Goku just got turned into carbonite and was taken aboard that spaceship along with your two other friends!" said Bulma nervously.
"Wow, that's really specific." said Luffy surprisingly.
"We should probably get outta here! Those soldiers are gonna be on top of us if we don't get a move on!" warned Naruto.
"But where are we supposed to go?! There's nowhere to run! We're trapped I tell you! Trapped! I don't wanna die, guys! I'M TOO YOUNG AND HANDSOME!" panicked Eddy who grabbed Edward and shook him until he received a slap to the face.
"Okay, slap me once, shame on you! Slap me twice--" Eddy gets slapped again.
"Are you done?" asked Edward.
"Yep, I'm done." said Eddy dizzily.
"Don't you guys worry, I can use my Instant Transmission to take us all to Lookout! It's the only place where Leader has no control over!" suggested Krillin.
"You're probably gonna need a little help with that. I can take half of everyone here and you take the other." volunteered Piccolo who fully recovered from his injuries.
"Right, everyone hold hands!" Each person linked hands together so that they would all be transmitted at the same time.
Naruto was about to take Natsu's hand when he notices that Natsu had a blank expression on his face. "Hey, you okay?"
Natsu snapped out of his trance and looks over to the young shinobi. "Huh? Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just thinking about Eren, and Ed, and Goku. I hope Rolf doesn't lay a hand on them or else there's gonna be hell to pay!" growled Natsu, who's concern is rapidly increasing with every second his new nakama are in danger.
"Hey, don't worry about it. We'll get them back, somehow." assured Naruto in which Natsu nodded with determination.
"Uh, why are we holding hands?" asked the dragon mage awkwardly.
"It's not like that, Natsu! Get it outta your head!" insisted Naruto who blushed furiously.
Suddenly, a loud banging noise was made from outside the front door as the troops tried to break down the door.
"Oh come on! Put more back into it, you worms! It's not that hard!" barked Cell who was growing agitated.
"Sorry, Mr. Cell, this door just won't budge!" said one of the troops, struggling to break the door down.
"They're coming! Hurry it up, Krillin!" said Roshi frantically.
"Alright everybody hang on!" Krillin and Piccolo put their middle and index finger on their foreheads and concentrate a kittke before disappearing along with everyone in the house.
The soldiers outside are still trying to get into the house with a battering ram. "Oh for heaven's sakes! Move aside, fools, I'll take care of it myself!"
He fires a burst of energy which destroyed the front of the house, exposing the interior. He inspects the inside of the home and finds that the Eds have disappeared.
"Dammit! They're gone! You idiots need to exercise more!" scolded Cell as he gets an incoming call through the communicator in his head.
"Hello? Oh, hello Leader 1!" replied Cell as Leader 1 spoke to him through the communicator. "No, I haven't captured them, they... got away. But don't worry, sir, I'll scour the entire planet for them! They can't be that far! Alright, I'll report back when I locate them. Cell, out."
He sighed with exhaustion. "He is not going to be happy if I don't find these morons."
Lookout
The two remaining Eds, the other heroes and Goku's allies are all teleported to the Lookout. As they were on the platform, Edd was immediately fascinated by the floating temple's architectural design, while Eddy just gave a bored stare. Naruto, Edward, Natsu and Luffy had a look of wonderment but were neutral nonetheless.
The group was approached by a black, chubby man and a green child with a wooden staff who looked similar to Piccolo.
"Hello, everyone! Are you alright?" greeted the black man.
"We saw what happened down there, are you all hurt in any way?" asked the green child, concerningly.
"Well, me, Vegeta and Piccolo are a little banged up but we're fine." assured Gohan who winced a little.
"Salutations, Mr...?" asked Edd.
"Popo, Mr. Popo. And this is Dende." introduced Mr Popo who shook Edd's hand.
"Hello, you must be Double D and Eddy, I've heard so much about you." said Dende.
"Wait, how do you know who we are?!" asked Eddy.
"Dende is the guardian of Earth, he watches over everything that happens on this planet and Mr. Popois is his assistant." explained Bulma.
"Quite, right. We also ran into Yuna earlier, she told us everything that's going on in the multiverse. I'm dreadfully sorry for what happened to your world." sympathized Mr. Popo.
"Wait, you know Yuna?" asked Luffy.
"Yes, she's one of the many cosmic beings that we associate with." explained Dende.
"I reiterate, isn't this a small world?" retorted Edward.
"Or in this case, a small multiverse." corrected Edd.
"Where is Yuna, anyway?" asked Naruto.
"Oh, I could have sworn she was here somewhere..." wondered Mr. Popo as a small cat came up to the deity and rubbed against his leg. "Oh, there she is!"
The cat suddenly poofs into a cloud of smoke, revealing it to be Yuna in the guise of a cat. "Hi guys!" waved the cosmic girl.
Everyone was flabbergasted by her sudden transformation. Even Edd was stupefied by it. "A... cat? How curious."
"So this is where you've been hiding! You were playing with yarn and chasing mice the whole time while we were being chased by Rolf all day!" accused Eddy who was getting fed up with Yuna.
"What can I say, being a cat has more perks than being a human." giggled Yuna.
"Well, we've got bigger problems now. Ed, Goku and Eren just got taken by Rolf's army and we need to get them back!" informed Natsu.
"Oh, that is bad isn't it?" asked Yuna. "Well, that won't be a problem, we'll just come up with a really good plan!"
"Well, what would that be?" asked Edward.
"Oh, I don't have a plan, I thought maybe you guys had one." figured Yuna.
The group each made an annoyed look as they looked at her in aggravation.
"I wish there was something we could do to help, but I'm afraid there's nothing we could do at the moment." said Mr. Popo saddenly.
"What about the Dragon Balls? Hell, we could just use them to fix the multiverse. Their power is basically unlimited." asked Piccolo.
"Well, that's the problem, you see we... do not have them... in our possession." explained Dende, struggling to speak as he was too embarrassed to explain why.
"Well, then they must be scattered throughout the Earth right?" asked Krillin.
"That's just it, they're not on Earth at all. I've tried to search for their energy but I haven't been able to detect them." Dende explained further.
Everyone went wide-eyed and their jaws dropped with shock. The two Eds and the heroes, however, were confused. Naruto turns to Bulma. "What are Dragon Balls?"
"Wait, we're talking about about big, hairy dragon testicles, right?" asked Natsu confusedly.
"Yes, Natsu, we are discussing the wonderment of reptilian genitalia and its eluding mysteries, thank you for imprinting that lovely image in our minds." said Edd sarcastically as Natsu gave a cheeky smile.
"The Dragon Balls are these crystal spheres that summon the Eternal Dragon, Sheron, who can grant a wish to anyone who summons him." explained Yuna.
"A wish? You mean like a genie?" asked Luffy.
"You mean... I can wish for ANYTHING?!" asked Eddy.
"Basically." replied Yuna.
Eddy smiled to himself. 'Who needs scams when I can wish to be the richest kid in the Cul-de-sac... no... the World! Even better... the WHOLE FREAKIN UNIVERSE!' Eddy giggled as he imagined himself sitting upon a pile of money while sucking on a jawbreaker.
"You fools! How can you lose the Dragon Balls?! If the immense power in those balls fall into the wrong hands it could mean catastrophe for the entire universe, as well as countless others!" exclaimed Vegeta angrily.
"Well we do have reason to believe that they already have." informed Mr. Popo. "When we found that the Dragon Balls were missing in the temple, there was a clue that indicated that they were stolen by a very cunning thief."
Mr. Popo pulls out a white hankerchief with a lipstick stain on it. Edd took the hankercheif and examined it. "Interesting. It looks like you may be dealing with some sort of intellectual female professional, a femme fatale, if you would."
"Well, stolen or not, how are we going to fix everything without the Dragon Balls? Since Dad has been captured there's no way we can save our world!" questioned Gohan as Edward got an idea in his head.
"Eddy, remember when you came up with the idea to blow up those attack pods with your super-charged stink bomb? You can use that brain of yours to help us defeat Rolf as well as to save our friends!" suggested Edward.
"What?! Why are you asking me to come up with a plan when you and Double D are the smart ones?! I still get F's in school!" yelled Eddy.
"Just because you don't get good grades doesn't mean you're not smart. You're very intelligent in your own special way, Eddy. You're very creative when it comes to strategy and making your own ideas." assured Edward who put his shoulder Eddy's head, much to his annoyance.
"And if it wasn't for your quick-thinking, we would be dead!" reminded Natsu who smiled at the short Ed-boy.
"Yeah, whatever happened to the Man with a Plan?" asked Naruto confidently.
"Well, I don't like to brag, but--" Eddy said modestly before being cut off by Luffy.
"But nothing, Eddy! I can tell, you're one sly guy! This crew wouldn't be complete without you!" proclaimed Luffy who put his arm around him and tousled his hair strands.
"Well, if you put it that way... ah, what the heck, I'll do it!" affirmed Eddy confidently.
"Just so you know, Eddy, even though you may fall short academically, I also think you could--" said Edd before being cut off.
"Alright, Double D, I said I was gonna do it! Geez... okay, boys, huddle up! Now here's the plan..." called out Eddy as Double D, the heroes, Yuna, Gohan, Piccolo and Vegeta huddled together to hear his plan.
Mothership
In the holding area of the Mothership, down near the bottom of the space vessel, is where the carbonite bodies of Eren and Ed are kept under surveillance. The guards that are guarding the area, however, aren't exactly as competent as they appear to be. Victor, one of Leader 1's animals, somehow escaped from his pen and is wandering aimlessly around the the bottom levels of the ship, unaware of his environment.
The goat then came upon the holding area, where two guards were guarding the room from the outside when Victor came up to the two guards. He bleats to the two guards to which they paid attention to the small animal.
"Oh hey, Victor!" greeted one of the guards as Victor bleats once more.
"Okay sure, go right in!" The guard opened the door allowing the goat to walk into the room.
Victor looked around the room, seeing Eren and Ed in their carbonite states. He starts sniffing the ground for moment before finding a discarded tin can and starts chewing on it. Then something else catches his attention. He notices a switch
on the wall that was labeled 'Reverse Carbonite'. He goes up to the switch, sniffs it and chews on it, ripping it out of the wall, unfreezing the two boys.
Eren and Ed both awaken as their senses slowly came back to them. Eren looked around the room, and looks over to Ed, who was on the floor giggling. "Ed, are you alright? Where are we?"
"We must've been taken on the Spleen Smashers' ship, so that they could harvest our livers and suck out our jugular veins! But not before they feed us pudding skin!" figured Ed who was seemingly oblivious to their predicament.
"I guess that means we're on Rolf's ship, right?"
"Yup! Wait... what was the question? Hey, look it's Victor! Hi Victor!" Ed petted the goat which made Eren give a blank stare at the dimwitted Ed-boy.
The young scout analyzed the room that confined the two boys. As he looked around, he puts his ear against the door to the room where he hears the two guards conversing with one another.
"Well, it looks like we can't go through here. I can probably take out those two guards outside, but we can't risk getting caught. So how do we get out of this place?" Eren pondered as Ed pulled out a grate from the wall, revealing an open air duct.
"Look, Eren, I found a place to put all my sponges!" said Ed gleefully.
"Good work, Ed! This crawlspace should be big enough for the both of us to crawl through. It's kinda dark in there, though. We need some kind of light to get through here." figured Eren.
"I have light bulb!" said Ed as he pulled out a lightbulb.
"How does that work?" asked Eren with curiosity.
"Like this!" Ed demonstrated by putting the bulb in his mouth and he pulls his ear to make it light up.
"That's amazing! How did you do that?!" asked Eren astoundingly to which Ed responded with a mumble.
"Well, at least we have light. Come on, we gotta find Goku so we can get off of this ship." Eren lets Ed go on through the air duct first, who decided to bring Victor along.
As they both crawled through the duct, the two boys navigate through the bottom levels of the ship, searchibg for their lost friend. While they crawled through the ducts, up on the higher levels of the spaceship, Frieza, Broly and Kid Buu were lounging in the private lounge. Frieza and Kid Buu were playing poker while Broly was thinking of various ways to torture Goku when Cell entered the room.
"Well, Cell, did you find those Ed-boys yet?" asked Frieza.
"No, I haven't. I've scoured the entire planet for those other two Eds and not a single trace of them!" said Cell aggravatingly.
"Are you sure you looked everywhere?" asked Frieza.
"Of course I've looked everywhere! I've searched through all the towns, cities, forests, jungles, swamps, tundras, deserts, mountains, islands, skies and oceans! Every single sqaure inch of this godforsakened ball of dirt, painstakingly searched, and the only thing that I could find was this shiny cup that says 'Holy Grail'!" exclaimed Cell tossing the Holy Grail aside.
"Would you two morons be quiet?! I'm trying to think of bloodthirsty ways to make Kakarot suffer!" yelled Broly who was still writing ideas down. "Now should I torture him while making his family watch or... vice-versa?"
"You do realize Leader 1 is not gonna be happy when he gets out of his mud bath." pointed out Frieza as he punches Kid Buu for peaking at his hand of cards.
"Oh come on, why do we have to follow this twerp! We're villains, not henchman! If you ask me we should destroy those stupid Eds as well as Goku, dammit!" yelled Cell.
"What choice do we have? We made a deal with the Miracle Worker to do what this little cretin says. As long as he keeps his promise for us to rule this universe." said Frieza wickedly.
"With or without the Miracle Worker, I'm going to destroy Kakarot once and for all, so that I may become the Ultimate Saiyan God!" proclaimed Broly.
"Destroy, kill, DESTROY!!! AHAHAHAHA!!!!" babbled Kid Buu maniacally.
"Cell-boy..." said a voice from across the room as Cell turned around to see Leader 1 with a towel wrapped around his head and waist, with a little bit of dried up mud on his skin. He gave a very stern glare upon the humanoid man.
"...back so soon, yes? Have you brought the slippery weasels known as the sock-headed and loudmouthed Ed-boys to Leader 1's presence?" questioned Leader 1 as Cell started to tremble.
"N-No sir... I have not found them yet. Wherever they may be, they must've been hidden quite well." informed Cell.
Leader 1 looked down on Cell with disappointment. "Your failure makes spoiled sausage cry with agony as they were once prime swine. Therefore... you must be punished."
"Oh no... not that, anything but that." quivered Cell as Leader 1 puts his hammer helmet on and slams it down on Cell, driving him into the floor.
"Let this be a lesson to you as well as to the other rangers." lectured Leader 1.
"I hate the Hat of Discipline!" muffled Cell who was planted straight into the floor.
"Leader 1, sir, it's the other two Eds, we have located them! They have decided to surrender, sir!" One of the crewmen informed as he came bursting into the room.
"Ah-ha! The Ed-boys have decided to give up! You see, even the sly fox would be no match for the hunter, for the hunter's menacing presence alone can harbor fear unto his prey!" sermonized Leader 1.
"Frieza-boy, Buu-boy, Broly-boy, go and apprehend the Ed-boys!" ordered Leader 1.
"As you wish, Leader 1. Come along, men." urged Frieza as they other generals exit the lounge, but not before Kid Buu jumps down on Cell, inflicting more pain on the humanoid.
He gets up off the floor to straighten his back. "Leader 1, pray tell, what does the Miracle Worker want with the Eds anyway?"
"Leader 1 does not know the intentions of the Miracle Worker..." explained Leader 1. "...but he does, however, have a plan to use the Ed-boys, as well as the Special Prosperity, to cleanse everything in existence, including that of Space and Time!"
"Cleanse? What does that mean?" asked Cell.
"You'll know as soon as we offer the Ed-boys to him." grinned Leader 1 as everything seems to be going according to plan.
Landscape (Dragon World)
Down on the ground, Naruto and Natsu both had 'Edd' and 'Eddy' with their arms restrained and their heads covered by a burlap sack. As they waited for the ship to appear, Natsu conversed with Naruto.
"This plan better work, or else we're gonna get screwed over, really bad."
"Don't worry, you've seen Eddy in action before, I'm pretty confident he knows what he's doing." confided Naruto.
"Yeah, and at least I get to kick some ass while we're at it!" said Natsu confidently.
"Do you always wannna kick ass all the time?" asked Naruto.
"That's pretty much my daily routine as a Fairy Tail mage! I eat, kick ass, sleep and repeat!" said Natsu.
'Eddy' then muffled from under the burlap sack.
"What's he sayin'?" asked Natsu.
"I think he says he can't breathe from under that sack." presumed Naruto. "Just hold on a little longer, we have to wait until that ship finds us out in the open."
Sure enough, Leader 1's ship finally comes into view, breaking through the atmosphere and descending upon the planet's cloudy sky. The ship, just like before, uses it's transit beam to transport three figures onto the surface of the Earth. Those figures happened to be Frieza, Broly and Kid Buu.
"So... you cowardly fools have decided to surrender after all. Even if you tried to retaliate it would be hopeless, for we are the strongest beings that this universe has to offer. Not that I like to boast... I just simply LOVE to boast!" smirked Frieza, cackling wickedly.
'I'm getting a bad vibe off of these guys, I hate to be the guy who tries to mess with them.' thought Naruto as he and Natsu tensed up a bit.
"But I digress, hand over the Ed-boys so that we will be on our way." ordered Frieza.
"Alright, here, take'em." said Naruto as he shoves the two Eds onto their knees.
"Really, that's it? You're just going to hand them over like that without a second thought? For a minute there, I thought you two were their allies. I guess you goody-two-shoes must have been so naive that you thought turning in your friends would be the right thing to do. How sad." smirked Frieza.
"HEY! You listen here you alien bastard! We would never rat out our nakama! Especially not to the likes of you!" shouted Natsu before Broly and Kid Buu come up from behind them to restrain him and Naruto.
"You need to learn to keep your mouth shut or I'll crush that lump you call a head!!" threatened Broly while grabbing the dragon slayer by the face.
"HEHEHEHE!!! YES! Buu like fear! Fear delicious!" said Kid Buu as he licked a trembling Naruto.
"Wow, you're the one to talk, aren't you? Alright let's get these sacks off of them so that I can see their faces better." Frieza then pulls the burlap sacks off their heads only to find that they are not who they're thought to be.
"Surprise!" exclaimed Edward, who was dressed as Eddy.
"Hello!" greeted Luffy, dressed as Double D, who broke out of his bindings and punches Frieza with his Gum-Gum ability.
"WHAT THE FU--" screamed Broly before he and Kid Buu were ambushed by Vegeta and Piccolo.
"That worked out a lot better than I expected!" grinned Vegeta.
"We still need to take care of these morons so that Gohan can go rescue the hostages." reminded Piccolo.
"Impossible! Where are the other two Eds?!" demanded Frieza, who quickly recovered from Luffy's assault.
"Like we would ever tell you, baldy!" mocked Luffy, which angered Frieza even more.
"Very well... since you refuse to cooperate, we'll just have to kill you then!" said Frieza as he and the other arch-enemies of Goku prepares to face off against the heroes.
"OH YEAH! I'm all fired up NOW!" shouted Natsu who got into a battle stance.
"Me and Natsu will handle Frieza!" said Naruto as he joined Natsu.
"Right, and me and Vegeta will take Broly since he's the strongest one here." said Piccolo
"And for once, I might actually beat the Ex-Legendary Super Saiyan." boasted Vegeta as he and Piccolo turned to face Broly.
"Wait! Don't tell me that me and Luffy are gonna fight that ugly pink blob over there?! It looks creepy!!" Edward complained while pointing to Kid Buu.
"Come on, Edward, we can take him! We're doing it for our nakama, right?!" encouraged Luffy.
"Right!" nodded Edward boldly as he and the straw hat pirate both take their positions.
"Ready to die, maggots?" boasted Frieza to which Natsu and Naruto replied by triggering their respective forms as well as the other fighters who are facing their opponents with great perseverance.
Meanwhile, Gohan, Edd and Eddy sneak aboard Leader 1's ship using Gohan's Instant Transmission to search for their friends. Luckily, they just so happened to have found a utility closet and found some extra guard uniforms to use as a disguise.
"Those three must be around here somewhere. Hopefully, Rolf hasn't done anything bad to them." said Edd concerningly.
"Don't worry about it, Double D, as long we're dressed as guards nobody will suspect a thing!" assured Eddy. "Man, this my greatest plan yet!"
"Shh, there's a guard coming!" warned Gohan as a guard came down the hallway.
"Pardon me, good sir. But could you direct us to where the prisoners that are incased in carbonite are being held in?" asked Edd.
"Oh, sure it's right down the hall to your right." directed the guard.
"Why thank you." thanked Edd.
"Ah, don't mention it." said the guard as he went about his business.
The trio heads down the corridor and followed the guard's directions until they reach the holding areas. They were about to enter of the areas when two assailants came out of nowhere and tackled the three.
"WAIT, STOP! We're not who you think we are! Please, have mercy!" pleaded Edd who was restrained by one of the assailants as well Eddy.
"Hey, Eren! This guy in the helmet sounds a lot like Double D!" One of the figures spoke, which turns out to be Ed, the lunkhead himself.
"Double D? What?" said the second figure, whose voice belonged to Eren, who was holding Gohan a knife-point.
Gohan quickly disarms Eren so that he wouldn't cause injury and takes his helmet off. "Calm down, Eren, it's me Gohan! We're here to rescue you!"
"Hey, where did that guard go?" asked Ed dumbly.
"Ed, you idiot! We're the guards! Me, Double D and Gohan are trying to bust you out!" explained Eddy who removed his helmet as well as Edd's.
"Eddy? Double D? ED'S BOSOM BUDDIES HAVE FINALLY REUNITED WITH ED!!!" said Ed gleefully, bear hugging his best friends.
"Ed please... YOUR bosom is crushing US!" wheezed Edd as Ed puts down the two boys.
"How did you guys get here?" asked Eren.
"It's a long story, but that's not important right now! Do you know which room that's holding my Dad in?" asked Gohan.
"We already checked the other rooms here. We were about to go into that one whenwe ran into you guys." informed Eren pointing to a large door at the end of the corridor.
"Are you sure Goku is being held captive in there?" inquired Edd.
"Positive." assured Eren.
"But it's locked, though. How do we get in?" asked Gohan.
"Perhaps I could be of assistance." volunteered Edd who unscrewed the panel beneath the automatic lock on the door.
"This wiring looks simple enough to rewire, I'll just disconnect this... reroute that... does anybody have anything adhesive? Oh, nevermind, I always carry scotch tape for handy uses. And... voila!" exclaimed Edd as he finally opened the door.
"You know, I was gonna use Ed as a battering ram, but I guess your method works as well." commented Eddy as the group entered the room, discovering Goku's frozen body.
"There he is! Dad! How do we get him out of this?" asked Gohan.
"Well, I guess maybe the same way me and Ed were unfrozen. There has to be a switch or something." figured Eren.
"Like that lever that says 'Reverse Carbonite'?" Eddy pointed out to said lever.
"Well that's heavily convenient." said Edd as he pulls the down the lever, releasing Goku from his carbonite prison.
"Whoa, my head... what did I miss?" said Goku dizzily.
"Dad, are you okay?" asked Gohan concerningly, placing a hand on his shoulder.
"Yeah, I'm fine. What happened though?" asked Goku.
"Well, through a series of events that would take a little while longer to explain, we have formed an operation to come and save you." explained Edd.
"And now you're as free as a cucumber in a pickle jar!" exclaimed Ed.
"What about Rolf? Won't he notice that we would be missing?" asked Goku.
"That's why the others are currently distracting Rolf's allied forces so that we wouldn't be caught so easily." Edd continued.
"What?! That's crazy! Do you realize how powerful my former enemies are?! Those guys might've already defeated our friends by now!" exclaimed Goku.
"Oh... I haven't thought of that..." sighed Edd.
"What about Natsu and Edward? They're pretty tough guys if you ask me!" reminded Eddy.
"Don't forget Naruto and Captain Majesty Luffy! They're more stronger than grass stains on a pair of white slacks!" compared Ed.
"Even if they do manage to beat them, that's not gonna stop Rolf from destroying the rest of our universe! I guess that leaves me with no choice..." paused Goku as he shows off his steely expression. "I'm gonna have to beat Rolf on my own."
"What?!" exclaimed Eddy
"No don't leave Ed!" cried Ed.
"Oh my... this has gotten quite serious!" Edd realized.
"Goku, no! We have already come this way to rescue you! Why would you suddenly decide to go off on your own?!" asked Eren angrily.
"I appreciate the effort you guys put into saving me. I guess now I might return the favor." smiled Goku.
"Goku, promise me you won't end up killing our dear friend Rolf, will you?" implored Edd.
"Don't worry, I might be able to knock some sense into him. I won't hit him that hard." assured Goku.
"Just do what you have to do, Dad. We'll be right behind you." said Gohan in which Goku responded with a nod.
"Gohan, take Eren and the Eds off the ship, I don't want them to get caught up in this." ordered Goku.
"Wait, Go--" Eren said before being held back by Gohan.
"Eren, it's okay. My Dad is a very skilled fighter, he knows what he's doing." assured Gohan as Eren looked down with a look of helplessness.
"Say, if Gohan is gonna use that transmission thing again are we gonna hold hands again?" asked Eddy.
Edd groaned and hastily grabs Ed and Eddy's arms and joins with Gohan and Eren to teleport off the ship, leaving only Goku to combat Leader 1's dark forces.
Down on the ground, the heroes are currently engaged in battle with Goku's arch-nemeses. Naruto and Natsu are both fighting against Frieza as the latter struggles to land a hit on Frieza.
"Face it! You two are nothing but little boys who still play with their toys! Fighting is for grown-ups! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" cackled Frieza as he kicks Naruto in the abdomen.
"Hey baldy! How bout you shut up! FIRE DRAGON'S WING ATTACK!!!" screamed Natsu as he grabs Frieza, sets his arm ablaze and sends him scooting backwards.
"Your puny flames are no match for my stamina!" proclaimed Frieza as he hurls a death ball towards Natsu who dodges it in the nick of time.
"Man, I've never faced an opponent this strong since Madara! What do we do?!" inquired Naruto who starting to run out of breath already.
"I think I know the answer to that!" smiled Natsu as both he and Naruto nodded in agreement.
"Just give it up! You two are only preventing the inevita-- what are you doing?" said a confused Frieza as he watched the two fighters perform the Fusion technique.
"FUUUUUUUUSION... HA!!!"
A huge wave of energy enveloped the mage and the shinobi, fusing both chakra and magic into a single entity: Narutsu. (Just imagine Naruto's Tailed Beast chakra combined with Natsu's Dragon Force.)
Frieza witnesses this new revelation as the mage and shinobi both reveled in their new form.
"Wow! We look awesome!!" said the combined voices of Natsu and Naruto.
"You're in trouble now, baldy!"
"Quit calling me bald! I don't even have hair you twit!" said Frieza angrily as he fires a death beam at Narutsu.
However, the beam was quickly swallowed by Narutsu, as if it was Natsu swallowing fire. They wiped their mouth with satisfaction. "That was tasty, but it was also kinda gamy, though."
"What in the hell are you?!" asked Frieza in surprise.
"Us? We're just the guy who is gonna bring you down!" proclaimed Narutsu as they continued their battle with Frieza.
While that is going on, Edward and Luffy are also having a difficult time with their opponent. Kid Buu laughed as he jumped around his potential victims while striking them from behind.
"What is this bastard suppose to be, some kind of homunculus?!" inquired Edward as he struggled to keep up with Kid Buu.
"I dunno but he's moving really fast!" said Luffy while dodging Kid Buu's attacks.
The deadly opponent was about to strike Edward once more but was swiftly countered by Luffy's kick.
"Thanks! I owe you one!" thanked Edward.
"Don't mention it!" replied Luffy.
Kid Buu became infuriated by Luffy's attack and furiously tries to attack him again, only to be hit by Edward's fire ball he summoned with the flamethrower that Edd installed in his arm.
"I think we're pretty much even at this point!" smiled Edward triumphantly.
The pink creature has finally had enough as he transforms into Super Buu. "BUU... WANT TO... KILL... YOOOUUUUU!!!!!"
"Great, now he's really pissed!!!" exclaimed Edward.
"COOL!!! That is a really awesome form!" said Luffy excitedly.
"What the hell are you talking about?! He's going to tear us to shreds!" yelled Edward.
"You have to admit, though, he's a pretty strong opponent. Besides, you haven't even seen the fun part yet!" smiled Luffy as he bites into his forearm and suddenly transforms into hulking beast which utterly terrifies Edward.
"LET'S DO THIS, PINKY!!!" challenged Fourth Gear Luffy.
Super Buu gave out a battle cry as he attacks Fourth Gear Luffy head-on and they both used their arm strength to hold each other back.
"Are you sure you don't need any help, Luffy? He's pretty tough!" offered Edward.
"Don't worry about me! I can handle it from here!" assured Fourth Gear Luffy as he pushed back Super Buu and plows him into the ground.
"Hm, guess I'll just sit on this large rock, I suppose." said Edward as he sat on top of a large boulder.
Suddenly, the Eds, Eren and Gohan have transmitted onto the battlefield right next to Edward.
"HI, EDWARDO!!!" greeted Ed cheerily from behind which scared the alchemist hard enough to make him fall right off the boulder.
"Jesus, don't do that to me!" exclaimed Edward rubbing his head as he got off the ground.
"Sorry about that, Edward, but I have some good news as well as bad news for you! We have successfully rescued our comrades from certain annihilation!" informed Edd.
"What's the bad news?" asked Edward.
"Goku decided to stay behind to fight Rolf." explained Eddy short and sweetly.
"You're kidding!" said Edward shockingly.
"Yeah, but you know my Dad well enough to know that he's a pretty experienced martial artist." assured Gohan.
"So how's the battle going?" asked Eren.
"Well, Natsu and Naruto are both fighting Frieza and Luffy is fighting Buu singlehandedly." explained Edward.
"What about Piccolo and Vegeta?" asked Gohan as Piccolo was suddenly thrown against the boulder crushing it into multiple pieces.
"Gohan... r-run..." said Piccolo weakly as he fell unconscious.
The group then looks towards Broly who tossed aside an unconscious Vegeta like a rag doll. "Well, well, well, if it isn't the spawn of Kakarot and his pet weaklings. I'm going to enjoy obliterating you all."
"Gohan... do something before that biblical barbarian turns us into particles of dust!" exclaimed Edd, who hid behind Eren for protection.
"I've beaten you before and I can do it again, Broly!" proclaimed Gohan before getting decked by the evil super saiyan.
"Who's next?" grinned Broly maliciously.
"Stand back, guys, I'll take care of--" Edward also gets knocked out by Broly's attack.
"Edward! You've got another thing you son of a bitch!" growled Eren.
"Is that so, runt? We'll then I might just make your death a lot more slow and painful." said Broly as he prepares for another attack.
"We're doomed..." said Edd in defeat.
"Not yet we're not! Ed, gimme your shoe!" ordered Eddy as he takes Ed's shoe off and puts a pebble in it.
"Eddy are you mad?!" questioned Edd.
"My foot feels a breeze, Eddy." said Ed as Eddy put Ed's shoe back on, which made Ed give a very grumpy expression.
"Go get'em, monobrow!" cheered Eddy as Ed marched towards the hulking saiyan.
"Oh, a brave one aren't you? I guess I can kill that other brat for last and make him watch while I destroy you and your other friends!" said Broly evilly, balling both of his fists together so that he could crush Ed's head.
"ED, NO!!!" screamed Eren as Broly brought down his fists onto Ed.
Instead of killing Ed, however, Broly's deadly blow was softened by Ed's surprisingly strong skull. His angry eyes started to glow a bright yellow as he grabbed the saiyan by the arm and proceeds to throw him onto the ground.
"WHAT?! NO!! I can't be overpowered by a some human bra--AHH!!!" screamed Broly as Ed rips his arm much to Eddy's, Edd's and Eren's shock and horror.
The lumbering boy then started to beat Broly's face in with his dismembered arm, crushing his skull as he screamed with bloodcurdling agony. The screaming ceased as Ed finishes off the corrupted saiyan and leaves his mangled corpse to be shown to anyone who bears witness to it. Eddy, Edd and Eren looked at Ed with gaping mouths.
"Holy mother of... pearrrrrlllll..." said Edd as he fainted with shock.
"Whoa... I didn't think Lumpy was that strong!" said Eddy who went pale seeing his friend commit a terrifying act of violence.
"He's some kind of... monster!" gasped Eren.
Ed threw Broly's arm aside and gave out an earth-shattering yell. "BIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGG TROOOOOUUUUBLLLLLEEEE!!!"

"What the hell is going on down there?!" asked Cell as he and Leader were watching the fight from the bridge.
"It seems that they have deceived Leader 1! Cell-boy! Go down there and destroy those who defy Leader 1!" ordered Leader 1.
"Whatever you say, sir!" replied Cell as he was teleported off the bridge.
Just then, the ringtone on Leader 1's cell phone's started playing 'That's My Horse' as he answered his phone.
"Hello, Leader 1 speaking..." replied Leader 1 as the voice on the other end spoke to him.
"Yes... mmm-hmm... yes, Leader 1 has required the Universe Rangers' blood samples. Leader 1 will send them to you right away... we also have the Ed-boys in our midst so be prepared to--"
"SIR! SIR! Goku has escaped from his containment and he's heading towards the bri-- AAHHH!!!" screamed a crewman as he was blown away by Goku's explosive entrance.
"Please excuse Leader 1 for a moment, must tend to some business." hanged up Leader 1 as he faced the saiyan.
"This has gone far enough, Rolf! I don't know why you're doing this, but you better stop or you'll have to answer to me!" warned Goku.
"Leader 1 does not care what Goku-boy will do to the Lord of the Shepard! The Miracle Worker must be pleased!"
"Who's the Miracle Worker and why do you need the Eds, anyway?" asked Goku.
"In due time, Goku-boy, you shall see when space and time are cleansed! Now, we must once again settle the score!" He pulls out a briefcase, places it on the ground and opens it, revealing a cod and salmon.
Goku, remembering when he first encountered Rolf, was about to choose the cod but stops when he thought back to what Rolf said about how the salmon was a better weapon. He chooses the salmon.
"Perfect choice. However, even though you have chosen a more lethal weapon, do not underestimate the skill of the Lord of the Shepard!" challenged Leader 1 as he prepares to battle the saiyan.
'I don't know why or how you're being this way, Rolf, but I'll make sure that your reign of terror ends right here, right now!' thought Goku as he raises his salmon and begins to fight the former Son of a Shepard.
"BRING IT ON!!!"

A/N: Well, now that that's out of the way, let's answer some questions: Jack Whitty I'm not going to disclose any spoilers but I will say that the reason for the Rick Sanchez cameo is because even though he is the protagonist of Rick and Morty, he does some shady dealings with galactic criminals such as assassins and mercenaries. He's not a bad guy he just does these things just to get paid due to his nihilistic behavior and he doesn't care if people die. Also I think Rick and Morty is a pretty funny show and has plenty of potential. As for The Lizard King, I think it is a pretty funny idea to have Eddy and Nami from One Piece interact and I could give you credit for it if I ever get a chance to use that bit in the next story arc. For those of you who requested to have certain anime characters/worlds to appear in a later chapter, I have actually considered to include more characters from other anime. I won't say who, but as for now I'm gonna stick with the main characters that I chose for this story. Read and review and don't be afraid to let me know what you think of the story so far!
