I do not own the Dragon Ball franchise.
Enjoy!
Radis know this day would come, the day that a battle was so massive that a whole universe population participated in it and as he looked down upon the millions of champions who won there right to be here, he couldn't have been more prouder of his Universe.
The Universe that he was once the lowest of the low.
The Universe that used to hold so such despair and lacked so much hope, that it was practically thick in the air and he was certain that if he hadn't met his guardian and had died in that moment, this universe would continue suffering with no end in sight.
They had come a long way from where they had been today.
It was truly sad that they would never know the original roots in which they came from.
Not that it would do them any good.
It was time to stop living in the past and start thinking about the future.
The future of crushing all the other universe once more and proving that Universe 12 was the best there is.
He opened his mouth and addressed the messes of challengers and said.
"People of universe 12, those of you who have made it this far have fought well, you've been through countless battles, exchanged fists with your own neighboir and friends, you've tangled with the old and the powerful and managed to find yourself victorious. Look around you, the people stand right next to you have shed the same blood, sweat and tears as you have to come this far and you should all take a sense pride in that. No other Universe has ever had a battle such as this and no other universe can survive this long. But today, we finally see who will represent our great Universe. Who will take on the glory and who will get the fight that they craved for by matching blows with those outside the world you have grown up in. Today we aren't warrior. Today we are Elites! Fight to your hearts content so that you can all have no regrets about whether you lose or win today. Just have fun"
And the crowd responded with a loud roar of the approval.
"And with this" He said, "I hear by declare, the battle for the top eight to begin!
Ch 16: The Battle for the top eight, who can last them all?
Nobody wasted time in fighting.
Immediately several very high powered shields were placed around the very large group of people, it took several layers of protection to make sure a barrier was properly solidified that separated the contestants from the audience of friends and family and people who wanted to see those who beat them make it to the top eight.
While most just came because her because it was a giant fight so larger that they wouldn't get another chance to see this until the next King of All tournament came around and most would be dead by then.
The battle was set out in space because there was no way a whole planet would survive with this many high level battle battlers on the planet, those who couldn't breath in space were giving pills that would last them a whole day allowing them to fight freely with no limitations, and fight they did.
The brutality of the scene that unfolded in seconds would have had many people rushing to the toilet to hurl, but instead it made all their bloods boil, as long nobody ended up dead than everyone can fight to their heart content.
Radis took a seat on his very fancy chair, he wasn't at all shocked to see a golden version of Frieza joining in the fighting, that race just keeps on popping up and wouldn't die, although, it looked more to him that gold was this Frieza's natural skin color, he was slightly shocked to see no hide or hair of this Goku's universe 12, counterpart Kakarot, in the mix, meaning the man had lost, somewhere along the lines.
But judging by how the very man himself was in the stand and cheering for his world winner with a smile on his face, the man must have fought to his heart content and had no regrets.
Beside the man was his wife and children and his parents, the Royal family of Saiyans were on his left, he was surprised to find King Vegeta smirking and Queen Bulma actually looking proud.
He followed their line of sight and he was very surprised to find amongst the mop of blood was a very excited looking little Absalom, who waved at his family while punching a guy in the jaw.
It must have been quite a shock to the everyone to meet the second Prince who entered in another thought, he had seen the boys fights, and what was scary was that it was eerily similar to Majin Buu's own, no matter how many times someone hit him, he would always bounce back with a smile.
Radis had his suspicions before but now he was convinced that the youngest Prince was in fact this universe version of Majin Buu, why else would the boy have pink hair when nobody in the family lineage had ever had that kind of hair color.
Just then Absalom was hit with a super high powered Kai blast from behind, everyone fully expected him to topple over, but he surprised them all by not even flinching and instead he turned around with a much larger ball in his hand and with a smile on his face, he said.
"It's rude, to attack someone from behind"
From the size of the Kai ball, that person know he was screwed the moment it collided with him so they instant transmission themselves away from it getting a safe distance away, thinking that they were safe only to feel the pain to the side of their neck only too late, along with a very childish smile from a pink hair saiyan prince.
"Nighty Nighty" The boy said, as the world want black for his opponent.
"That's my son!" Bulma said, with pride.
"Hmp" Vegeta said.
"It's should be me down there" Trunks said, not that he wasn't happy for his little brother, most of his body was covered in bandages but he couldn't help but think it should have been him matching blows with the very best in the universe.
"Oh, cheer up Trunks" Goten said, "We both tried our very best" laughing a bit even thought it kind of hurt to talk after the Kai blast to the neck. "We had fun and that's all that mattered, did it feel good just to fight like that with no restrictions?"
His speech got two identical looks from Trunks and Vegeta who were not amused.
"Wow, you two look so much alike" Kakarot said, laughing.
"Well of course we do Kakarot, we're father and son" Vegeta said, with a scowl.
Suddenly there was a huge explosion drawing everyone attention and when the smoke cleared it reveal on human in simple battle armor surrounded by a lot of unconscious bodies, many recognized the man as none other than famous fighter Hercules Satan.
However the man was kicked from behind by a women fighter, with a small body.
His balance was thrown so out of whack that he started to spin around like crazy trying to get his body to stop the moment.
Many, were shocked that the small women had so much power.
But the moment of glory was short lived because she suddenly found herself like many others on the receiving end of a very highly powered eye beam that had no intention of killing anybody.
In an instant thousands of fighters were knocked out from one guy.
And the crowd was loving every minute of it.
"SO COOL!" Absalom said, with a twinkle in his eyes as he looked at the form of Beater, he wished he had skin like that, who knows how popular he would get in class?
Suddenly a huge explosion went off behind him just missing him by the hair and he turned around to find a weird green pointed eared guy, surrounded by a lot of unconscious people.
"Man I wish I was up there" Kie said, right next his brother's he was covered head to toe in bandages, once he had woken up and eaten his fill, he was finally told about why in that moment he was suddenly so strong.
It had shocked him and made him grin like a lunatic, knowing he had accomplished something that nobody in the history of the Bane family had ever achieved.
That is, until he suddenly found himself on the receiving end of a giant planet sized Kai infused ball, over his hospital bed because he was being so annoying.
It was safe to say he kept quiet after that.
"Just be glad you lost with dignity, little brother." One of his brothers said, "You did obtain a power that nobody has ever seen before"
And Kie just had to purse his lips, exactly considering trading the power for a spot in this fight until he felt his tail suddenly start to heat up, making him looked down.
To find his tail was on fire.
What happened next wasn't his proudest moment, as he let out a seam that was eerily similar to a women at opera house gaining lots of laughs from around him before he tried grabbing the nearest water bottle to cool his tail off.
In the end he had to go back down to his home planet and throw himself in the nearest fountain, getting some more laughs from the surrounding people but he didn't care.
By that time, the battle had gone from 2 billion and something to 2 thousand, those who were knocked unconscious found themselves teleported instantly back to their homes, with a fruit basket, congratulating them with their official rank in the universe.
"Yes, my baby is still in!" Bulma said, seeing her son still fighting and still looking like he had more fight in them.
And nobody bothered to question why she was so interested in one of her son's, when she spent of most of her time just doing hair and make-up, instead of spending quality time with her children.
This was one of the main reason why Trunks grow up so much like Vegeta, unlike his other self where that Trunks never had his father growing up, he didn't really have his mother to rely on growing up and Vegeta was pretty much the only one pulling his weight in the parenting department.
Not that he would ever tell her that.
He didn't want to die and neither did those unfortunate enough to be in her way.
It was now down to the top one hundred and you could clearly see the exhaustion on those who still remained faces.
"From this moment on, stamina is the most important" Kakarot said, showing how truly unlike he was to his Universe 7 counterpart, he had been beaten by Saiyan that was twice his age.
In this universe, the life span of the Saiyan race was double that of Universe 7, due to many different factors such as they lived in their natural environment, they didn't die from trying to invade other planet who no doubt had several good fighters and their drive to fight was so strong that they could still fighting even at the age of 300.
Explosion after explosion happened as everyone suddenly started to attack each other, determined to outlast them all and take home the title of the number one none-god fighter in the universe.
"Come on son, don't let anyone beat you!" Bulma said, while the rest sweat dropped by how vocal she was.
It seemed the battle had gone on for two minutes before finalists starting dropping due to fatigue, everyone was heavily sweating and panting knowing they had pushed their bodies to the limit and beyond.
They were all so tired that they all didn't even know if they could move their fists anymore.
But that's what made it all that more exciting.
The feeling of battling to your hearts content, clashing blows with someone to the point you can't even take one step further, was enough to make their blood boil and to savor every moment of it.
What happened next proved to all of Universe 12 that these were the people that would proudly present them.
They all released the last of their energy into a single blast, all at the same time and what a clash it was.
The clash was so huge that the barrier protecting the audience from the battle not only shook but cracks started to form in the barrier making those who protected the barrier eyes widened in shock.
Nobody could do anything as they were all suddenly consumed by a bright light and when the light disappointed, they were all greeted with not 10 but 8 unconscious individuals.
Each name was broadcasted on the screens all over the Universe along with their faces.
Abasolom Briefs- the youngest Saiyan Prince, a boy with an extremely childish personality.
Hercules Satan- A fighter who had several titles already under his belt.
Beater Reop- A greed hunter and the oldest of three siblings.
Carliena Blitz-a female well known fighter, who had silver curly hair and her ears were pointy like an elf.
Zamasu Eafa- A guy who had no titles to his name so he was pretty average, except he had a family.
Bildo- who was a grown up version of Universe 7, Android 17, unlike his universe 7 counterpart he was never turned into an android, so he was fully human and hadn't taken to dress like an old fashion cowboy, his hair was styler in a much better way and his bandana was wrapped around his arm, just by looking at him, you could tell who's counterpart he was.
Waeh- Universe 12 version of Broly, he looked pretty much the same except for he was born with purple hair instead of black, he wasn't born Saiyan at all, he was never abandoned for being too strong and as a result he never grow up with a deep hatred for Kakarot, his parents had raised him to fight while holding nothing back and most importantly he was never chained by his own father to suppress his evil nature, the most distinctive feature between the two was that Waeh didn't have that look of madness about him but instead it was more like staring into the eyes of a noble.
And finally, Piepheo, a female version of Monaka, a women who was actually very strong compared to her Universe 7 male counterpart and did more than deliver packages across the universe.
They all looked at their champions in shock and surprise.
Radis got up from his chair and said.
"My people of Universe 12, I present to you our Champions, they will be our representatives for the biggest tournament across all the Universes"
Silence followed after his speech, than somebody got up and started clapping, stating a whole chain or applause and cheers from everyone watching all over the universe.
That was a great fight and they couldn't have done better themselves, everyone who participated deserved to be applauded.
But their instincts couldn't have come raging right at that moment, as they all soon felt the familiar itch telling them to fight the nearest thing next to them.
And they obeyed without a second thought because this was what they were born to do.
Universe 12, was a place where the weak should never step foot in.
And Universe 1-11 were soon going to learn how crazy Universe 12 is.
And scene!
Next chapter, Radis is dragged out of bed to meet the universe's champions and create a training ground for the eight most powerful none gods in the universe. Review/ fav and follow!
