Dragon Ball Fukkatsu
Turles Saga
Chapter 5
Finale
Vegeta pushed Turles back, "Well then, it's time for Round 2."
Turles smirked, "Fine by me. I'm more than willing to give you another beatdown Prince."
Meanwhile . . .
A hulk of a figure charged towards Android 17. Without even thinking, the Android immediately dodged the charge, and responded with his own blast of energy, "Photon Blast!"
The blue beam made contact with the figure, who growled in discomfort. 17 stared calmly, 'After fusing, their powers have increased exponentially. This guy could really be trouble . . .'
Indeed, the massive purple hulk stared back at 17 with harsh red eyes and disproportionate legs. The hulk yelled, "You will rue the day you brought out Laksin!"
17 smirked, "Laksin? You only combined both of your names. How unoriginal."
Laksin blasted a purple beam of energy straight towards 17, who instinctively forged a barrier, blocking the brunt of the attack. To 17's surprise, the beam was merely a diversion as Laksin leapt up several meters, appearing above Android 17. 17's eyes widened while he yelled, "Photon Blast!"
Laksin's figure disappeared, and reappeared behind 17. A powerful blow was dealt to 17's back, forcing a yell of pain from the Android. Laksin smirked, "Take this. Crusher Blast!"
A red beam of energy forced 17 out into a plateau, while Laksin nodded appreciatively at his work, "Not bad for the conglomeration of two scientists."
Meanwhile, Gohan was edging out Daiz in every turn, knocking the fighter back and punching him around easily. Daiz panted while he quickly tried to recover from Gohan's brutal onslaught, but the Saiyan wouldn't let up. A kick signified Daiz's defeat, while the orange-skinned warrior fell down, unconscious. Gohan stared down, "Well then, what was all that you said about Yamcha and Master Roshi earlier?"
The Saiyan went over to Piccolo, and knocked out Amond in a flash, "Piccolo, help Android 17 with that fusion. I'm going to help Dad and Vegeta."
Piccolo nodded, "Be careful with that Turles guy Gohan, his power is vastly greater than anything I've anticipated."
Gohan smiled, turning his back towards Piccolo and showing off his gi, the same as Goku's signature orange gi, "Don't worry. I'll handle it."
Piccolo grinned, "Heh . . ."
Vegeta kicked Turles into a mountain, but to his surprise, his attack was quickly followed up by a massive Kamehameha wave from Son Gohan. Vegeta turned towards the son of Goku, "Tch . . . interfering with my fight?"
Gohan floated up, "He injured my Dad Vegeta. I have a right in fighting him."
Vegeta growled, "You stay out of this fool! This fight is between me and Turles!"
Turles destroyed the rubble surrounding him, "You've got some nerve busting in like that! That damned attack actually hurt!"
Gohan prepared himself in a stance, while Vegeta pushed him back, "He's mine!"
Vegeta and Turles clashed while gold and blue mixed. The two attacked each other fiercely, neither letting up even the slightest opening. When Turles was open after an attack, Vegeta immediately rushed in to strike, but Turles realized his mistake, catching Vegeta's fist and instead kicking Vegeta back. Gohan rushed in though, slamming his elbow in Turles's gut, forcing the Primal Saiyan to cough out blood. Turles returned the attack quickly though, slamming his fist into Gohan's gut, forcing the Ultimate Saiyan a few meters back. Vegeta recovered from Turles's attack, and went in for a kick of his own. The two fighters again exchanged a fierce series of blows and attacks. Finally, Vegeta leapt up, "Gallic Gun!"
The purple beam of energy flowed smoothly while Turles yelled, "Kill Driver!"
The beam met a gigantic ring of burning orange energy, and Turles's attack slowly began overpowering Vegeta's. Gohan leapt in, "Masenko!"
The yellow blast hit Turles right in the back, and Turles growled while he turned towards Gohan. Vegeta poured more energy into his attack, causing a greater flow of purple energy. Turles yelled, struggling against Vegeta's Gallic Gun while enduring a Masenko from Gohan. At last, Vegeta's Gallic Gun prevailed, devouring the figure of Turles into its hot violet core. When the attack was finished, Vegeta panted, his energy reserves weakened. Gohan likewise panted, this was, if they had fought hard enough, to be the end of the Primal Saiyan. To their surprise though, Turles's figure emerged from the smoke. Turles's eyes were widened in rage this time, "D-damn it! You stupid idiots dare!"
Then Turles began laughing, "I've won! I have planted the Tree of Might right here on this planet! As we speak, the planet is dying at a rapid pace!"
Gohan's eyes widened in alarm, "Tree of Might? What do you mean?!"
Turles's laugh crescendoed, "You ignorant fool! How do you think my base state was so powerful? It was because of those fruits! I traveled from planet to planet, planting the Tree until it took enough life force to drain the planet of its energy and grant me the Fruit!"
Vegeta growled in slow realization, "In other words, you coming to Earth was merely to satiate the Tree and to gain even more fruits. Damn it . . . we played right into his trap."
Gohan shook his head, "Not yet we haven't. I'll go look for the Tree!"
Vegeta nodded, and turned towards Turles, "Well then . . . it's you and me now."
Turles smirked, "You've gotten soft Vegeta. First, you tried to get Kakarot to heal up, now, you've let that Saiyan aid you. The Vegeta I know would never have done those things."
Vegeta closed his eyes, contemplating on Turles's words, "Indeed, the Vegeta you know is different from the one now," Vegeta opened his eyes, their gaze sharper and sterner now, "But the Vegeta you know has ascended to become what I am today!"
A blast of cobalt hit Turles head-on while Vegeta powered up. In an instant, he disappeared behind Turles and slammed his leg into Turles, but Turles blocked the attack with his forearm. Turles reached out, attempting to punch Vegeta, but Vegeta smiled, revealing that Turles had been chasing an afterimage. Turles turned around quickly, but too late, for Vegeta managed to slam the Saiyan back with a mighty kick. The Super Saiyan Blue Evolution leapt back, charging up a beam of energy, "Final Flash!"
Turles returned the attack, "Violet Onslaught!"
The two beams met in the air, colliding with each other and producing shockwaves that destroyed several plateaus. A sweat bead began dropping down Vegeta's forehead, 'Damn, he's so tired out but his power production is still off the charts!'
Turles, on the other hand, grit his teeth, 'I never expected the Saiyans to get this powerful . . . just what the hell type of training did they do?!'
Vegeta smiled while his Final Flash slowly began overpowering Turles's Violet Onslaught. The Primal Saiyan's eyes widened in shock, "Wh-what the?"
"Do you understand why you're losing now?" gloated Vegeta.
Turles growled, "What are you talking about imbecile?!"
"This Saiyan power that I have, was refined and mastered by my own training! The power you have is merely from the pathetic fruits. In fact, you talk about me abandoning Saiyan roots, and yet you're the one who's done so. You've eaten fruits to gain power, while I've gone through rigorous training to perfect every movement I have in this state! A weakling like you could never beat me!"
Turles yelled out, "You stupid spoiled brat! From the very start you've had power that us low-class warriors could only dream of. Now that I've become stronger, this is the excuse you've made?"
Vegeta merely laughed, further enraging Turles and causing his Violet Onslaught to grow in power, "Now you dare laugh? You mock me every way, I will have my vengeance upon you Vegeta!"
"No you imbecile," Vegeta said, "I'm laughing at your beliefs. What you haven't realized is that Kakarot was standing right there beside me all this time! Kakarot, the low-class Saiyan clown born with a mere power level of 2 was able to reach even-ground with me. Do you realize now? Through hard work and training we were able to reach power rivalling the Gods! Meanwhile, all you've done was eat a bunch of fruits to increase your base power exponentially. Do you need me to spell it out for you? What you've relied on is stolen power, not power of your own hard work and training!"
Turles growled while he struggled to keep up with Vegeta's Final Flash. The beam ultimately overpowered Turles's Violet Onslaught, causing the Primal Saiyan to yell when he was consumed by the mighty attack. Vegeta panted, his ligaments screaming with exhaustion from the mighty beam that he had created. Turles flew out of the smoke, straight for Vegeta, and landed a solid punch to Vegeta's stomach. The Primal Saiyan swerved to the right, using momentum to enhance a powerful kick which Vegeta blocked. Vegeta attempted to fight off Turles with his own attack, and the two again engaged in a high speed clash. Vegeta leapt back from the exchange, readying himself in a familiar stance, "It's time to end this Turles. Gamma . . ."
Turles powered up his own beam, "Yes, let's finish this Vegeta!"
"Burst . . ."
"Kill . . ."
"FLASH!"
"DRIVER!"
The azul and vermillion beams met each other in a mighty clash, sending shockwave resonating throughout the battlefield and swinging debris everywhere. Goku looked on, his body weakened and tired. Turles began pushing Vegeta back, "I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE UPON YOU!"
Vegeta struggled and started to lose his grip on his beam, 'D-damn. I'm losing this!'
To his surprise though, the figure of Goku appeared behind Turles. A burst of azul signified that Goku was in his Super Saiyan Blue state. A further explosion of a crimson aura surrounded the Saiyan while he cupped his hands together, "Ka . . ."
Turles turned back in shock, "Kakarot! Why are you helping him?! Us low-class warriors must stick together!"
"Me . . ."
Turles's eyes widened while he looked around quickly, "D-damn it! Kakarot, why aren't you helping me?! This bastard will turn his back on you when he has the chance! Come on, let's show the elite Saiyans who's really the boss!"
"Ha . . ."
"Kakarot, listen to me you imbecile! That Saiyan's family was responsible for happened to your father, Bardock! Had they listened to your father, the Saiyan race would not be in such drastic straits!"
"Me . . ."
Turles finally gave up his pursuit, "Damn you! I will not have my revenge be spoiled by you morons!"
The golden aura powered up, blinding Vegeta and Goku's eyes as it flashed with Turles's burning fury. Goku continued, now beginning to place his hands forward, "HA!"
The beam hit Turles's back, and the Saiyan gasped as he began struggling with Vegeta's beam. Turles began staggering forward, "N-no . . . No . . . No . . . NO!"
Finally, Turles's Kill Driver gave out, and both beams attacked him head on. The figure of Turles was obliterated as Son Goku's Kamehameha, and Prince Vegeta's Gamma Burst Flash met in a gigantic explosion that forced the Earth to tremble. Finally, the battle was over. Both Goku and Vegeta collapsed onto the battlefield, their bodies exhausted.
Earlier . . .
Piccolo flew down, landing next to Android 17. The Android acknowledged his presence with a nod, "You here to help?"
Piccolo smiled, "Yeah, you can count on it. It's good to be working with you this time."
Android 17 narrowly dodged an attack by Laksei, who stomped on the ground proudly, "Come on! I'll crush both of your heads!"
Piccolo leapt back, 'It looks like this one's a brute.'
He placed his fingers onto his head, charging up a sphere of condensed ki. He nodded to 17, using telepathy to communicate, 'Distract him while I charge up my attack.'
'Got it,' 17 responded back.
With that, Android 17 rushed towards Laksei, pushing him back using all the force he could muster. 17 placed his hand behind Laksei, charging up a warm blue sphere of energy and unleashing it upon the back of the fused warrior. Laksei coughed out purple blood, the force of the attack forcing blood out of his mouth. In a fit of anger, Laksei pounded his fist into the back of Android 17, who staggered a little. However, 17 persisted, tackling Laksei into the ground.
Laksei groaned, but managed to kick 17 off, sending him into the air. The fused warrior then charged up a sphere of energy quickly, "Get off me!"
The blast sent 17 into the air where it exploded into a brilliant crimson. Laksei then fixed his attention onto Piccolo, "Don't think I forgot about you!"
Piccolo's eyes widened, 'Damn it! It's not ready yet!'
Laksei leapt over, attempting to attack Piccolo. 17 intervened quickly though, erecting a barrier between Piccolo and Laksei, blocking Laksei's attack. Laksei turned towards 17, recognizing the familiar hue of teal as an intervention by him. Piccolo took this chance to strike, "Special Beam Cannon!"
Laksei's eyes widened as the beam pierced through his breast, sending out a bright spurt of purple blood. Piccolo panted, and then smirked, "Heh, too cocky there huh?"
17 nodded, "That was a good attack. He should be done, but for good measure . . ."
A blue blast of energy was fired towards the body of Laksei, "Photon Blast!"
An explosion signified the impact of the blast and the obliteration of Laksei's body.
Meanwhile . . .
Gohan squinted, "So this is it, the Tree of Might."
With a growl of effort, he pulled the roots of the tree out. Gohan clenched his teeth, "This thing is quite heavy."
A white aura surrounded Gohan while he powered up, and then, with a mighty yell, he threw the Tree in the air. Gohan quickly charged up a Kamehameha, and then fired it, destroying any remnants of the tree. The Saiyan panted, looking at the hopeful Sun with a grin, "It's over."
Later . . .
The collapsed figures of Goku and Vegeta both fell on the ground. Krillin tried to shake Goku up, "Goku, you okay there buddy?"
"He's out cold," Piccolo responded, "He'll be fine in a few moments."
With that, the Namekian also turned towards Vegeta's unconscious body, "Heh, it looks like Vegeta was the one to save us this time. I guess Goku has really made us soft . . ."
That concludes this chapter of Dragon Ball Fukkatsu and the arc! I'm sorry about updating so late, I was traveling and I got sick a few days afterwards. To be honest, I wasn't quite satisfied with this arc. I'll definitely work harder on the next one! Thank you for reading!
